NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS ,
City Officials Have Much Trouble with
"Bolt" Game Men ,
RELEASED AS RAPIDLY AS ARRESTED ,
CotiHlderahlo Curiosity Aroused by
the Actions ol' the Chief
of Pol'cc In tlio
1'remlHCH ,
Frank Carroll and Ed Mnher sot up a
"bolt" game yesterday morning nt the corner
of Broadway nnd Seventh streets , nnd were
hard at work raking in the nlcules nnd the
quarters of the unsuspcctlne nnd gullible
farmers , when Officer Wujeck came along
The ofllcor recognized it , ns being n "skin
game" of the twenty-four caret style , and
accordingly gathered the proprietors , with
their establishment , under his arm. They
were taken to the police station. A private
Interview between them and Chief of Police
Carey ensued , and In the meantime the jailer
commenced to enter the names ol the parties
on the book. Only ono name had been writ
ten down , when n mo > sago cnmo from the
police headquarters notifying Wnjeck to let
them go. as they were alt right , and the
chief did not cnro to place any charge
against them. Wajcck. of course , obeyed the
mandate of his superior , and the two gam
blers were discharged from custody.
Marshal Templeton knew very well that
the two men would only bo encouraged by
their pleasant interview with the chief , nnd
ho sent a couple of deputies out to watch for
further developments. In about an hour
thov returned , bringing the two culprits
with them , and this time there wns no hitch
in the proceedings. They were booked with
gambling , nnd their elTeets , amounting in all
to about $50 , were put up with tmi marshal
for their appearance In police court tomorrow
morning.
Considerable curiosity was aroused by the
transaction ns to what , tlio motive of the chief
was in letting the two culprits go free , in
view of the fact that they nro well known as
two of the must unmitigated " scalawags In
the city.

Whllo the circus was entertaining the
crowds at the driving park yesterday after
noon , burglars were getting in their work in
uilferont parts of the town , an-d more than
ono \ \ ho had watched with open mouth the
gray bended antics of the clown found bis
house turned tops turvy when ho reached
homo. Brockhoff's grocery store , at the
corner of Sixth avenue and Fifteenth
street , was ono ot the places
visited , Mrs. Brockhoff.was the only ono nt
homo. She is somewhat hard of hearing , but
she beard a uolso in Urn back part of the
building. She went to investigate , when she
suddenly found herself confronted with n
largo revolver , in the hands of a trampish
looking man. She screamed for help , but
wns speedily silenced by a shot in her direc
tion from ttio revolver and n warning from
the man that held it as to what the result
would bo if the action was repeated. A few
minutes later the man and his companion loft
the store leisurely by the front door.
A couple of doors away is the residence of
J. Fullmer an engineer on the Union Pacific.
Some of the neighbors saw n man leaving
the house b.vtho back way and knowing that
all the family were away , went to see what
was up. They found that someone had been
through the bouse and had turned every
thing upside down in the effort to find some
thing of value. A line revolver and a lot of
jewelry were taken and it is hard to tell how
"
initny "other things will turn up missing in
the course of tlio next few days.
Tlio residence of C. E. Swnnson , ISO CJlen
avenue , was visited. Hero the burglars made
nn entrance through n back window , nnd
took n protvy thorough Inventory , but nothing
else save a gold watch chain , the property of
a young man who rooms in the house , was
taken ,
John Stuohs , 0u First avenue , received n
call , A line gold watch nnd chain wore
taken , and the burglars also helped them
selves to some cigars that were lying on u
dresser.
The house of John Green , the upper Broaa-
wuy shoemaker , OCS South First street , wns
entered and everything in the house was
gone through. Even the bedding was taken
off from the beds , in tlio hope of finding the
traditional gold mine between the bcdtlcks.
In a bureau drawer worn an cnvo'ope con
taining a check for $50 md : a small amount of
sliver. In t > omo unnccountnblo wav tha ma
rauder missed them both , nnd nothing at all
was secured.
The work wns nil apparently done by ama
teurs who were so foarf ul of being discov
ered that they did not do their business up
thotojghly. In very few Instances did aiuy-
body see anyone about the places visited ,
and the only way the police hope to get any
track of them Is by arresting all suspicious
characters on general principles. Two hard
looking customers were cnptured last , evening -
ing by Officer Kemp , giving their names ns
Ed Thompson and Dave Murray. lOach of
them had counterfeit money in his pocket ,
nnd the opinion of the police Is that they are
experienced crooks ,
Must Hiivo it Gnarintee.
Abe Lincoln post , Grand Army of the He-
public , took a hand in the encampment pro
ject last evening nt their regular meeting ,
adopting the following set of resolutions
which explain themselves :

cSmcd "Tuxedo" nt the Grand opera house
last evening , and tlio predictions made by
Tin ! BII : : as to the HUCCCSJ of the now farce
comedy were more than Justified.
There is llttlo plot in the comedy , and for
the purposes of the entertainment little is
needed. "Tuxedo" is chosen ns the scene ,
nnd around the oxcluslvesof that aristocratic
New Vork resort the situations nro written.
Mr. Thatcher as himself Is inimitable and
has shown a versatility which cannot bo too
highly commended. Air. Ilughoy Dougherty
made a pronounced hit as thu song nnd dunce
man , lied McGee , Mr. Eugene O'Hourko is
highly cast In the role of Jackson Park , a
typical Clilcagoan. While Mr. Marble , the
author of the play , was not called before the
footlights , ho was nevertheless "very much
lu it" as Gregory Gabble , a retired auction
eer , twice married and very beautifully
situated ut Tuxedo , possibly "in a cottage
adjoining the Lorillnrd.
liaymon Moore plays a juvenile part very
creditably , but needs a little morn snap and
go in several of his minor situations.
Mr. Coleman as Lord Cholmondelay , which
the members of ttio company persist" in pro
nouncing as it Is spoiled , was a surprise to
hi * friends in the nudiencn. His work was
clear cut and ho gave a really remarkable
portraiture of a modern English swell ,
' who , " as Thatcher says , "are not done Jus
tice in Puck. "
Miss Lizzie Daly as Mildred was captiva
ting and brings an excellent stage training
to the role of a society young woman , in love
with anything that has a tit of fun in it.
Miss Haydcu as Sadie Newctt gives excel
lent promise for the future. She is young ,
pretty and ambitious.
Miss Fitzhugh as the Browning girl was
pleasing , although she needs to elaborate the
part , as it is a rival of Mrs. Glllilory , except
cast in a much lighter mould. She has a
very sweet voice , which she uses well. Miss
Mamie Gilroy , who has boon seen in Omaha
a number of times , is delightfully cast in the
part of Fanny. She brings to the part a de
lightful personality and her duet with Mr.
Coleman was the hit of the evening.

THREE KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN KILLED
Number of 1'coplc Injnreil
Train Connlnttd ol' nn ICxuur-
I. , a ol'v Workmen
from Dayton.
Ci.vciss'ATi , O. , July 25. Novs has been
received nt this oflleo from Hamilton of n col
lision of trains at Mlddlotown , attended by
serious loss uf life. The Dayton cash regis
ter company gave their employes nnd the
friends of their employes a plcnlu ex
cursion to Woodsdalo , n resort , on
the Miami river about four miles
north of Hamilton nnd about thirty
miles from Dayton. The excursionists
went by railroad train on the Cin clnnntl ,
Hamilton & Unyion. The excursionists
tilled nil the curs of n very long train nnd
spent the day \Voodsdale. . Ttiey were
mostly younsf people , composed of about
equal numbers of men nnd women , with n
few children. .
It was after 9 o'clock tonight when the
long train with Us load of happy Occupants
started to return to Dayton. It wns a llttlo
nfter ID o'clock when the train stopped at
Mlddlotown to let off the excursionists who
stopped thorc. This was twenty miles south
of Dayton. Whllo the passenger train was
standing there a freight at high speed ran
Into the rear end of It. Three cars full of
ueoplo were overturned nnd wrecked.
General Passenger Agent W. O. McCor-
mlck of the Cincinnati , Hamilton & Dayton
road ns soon ns ho was notllled ol the acci
dent ctuno down from his Walnut Hills resi
dence 'to the depot and dispatched n corps ot
surgeons to Mlddlotown.
Through AleCorintck it has been learned
that after leaving Woodsdalo the coupling of
some of the cars becnipo disengaged and the
train was delayed in order to fix it.
Again at Middloton the train was
stopped to further repair the damage.
There is a curve'at Middletown which
hides a train standing at the depot
from the view of a train approaching from
the south. A lluginan wns .scut back to stop
the incoming freight , which was moving at n
high rate of speed and was heavily loaded.
The engineer of' the freight saw the Hags.
IIo put on brakes , reversed his engine and
apparently did all in his power to stop his
train , but the impetus was too great und a
moment later the awful crash came.
The report , of the killed and wounded at
Middloton as given by the officials of the
Cincinnati , Hamilton 111 Dayton road is us

Grand Consolidation of Caiindinn Iii-
lorestH to Oppose niiiiiriuiin.
Nr.w YOIIK , July 25. According to n Mon
treal special a nexv phase has developed in
the big railway deal going on between the
Canadian Paeilic and Grand Trunk railways ,
to the effect that the Boston & Maine rail
road is also to bo included In the now deal ,
which , if consummated , will form ono of the
biggest railroad combinations on the conti
nent.
The idea is to form a great transcontinen
tal pool between the Vamlorbilts anj these
roads to work against the Gould and other
American roads , with terminals at Now
York , Boston , Portland and Halifax , and a
line of transatlantic steamers in connection
therewith. If tno arrangements are carried
out tlieso lines will contest for the tr.ifllo of
half of the continent.
The Grand Trunk people still claim to ho
ignorant of the deal , although a gentleman
who is intimate with the oHlooH siys : the
rumor is believed , ana in faot many uf the
ofllcurs were certain that the Canadian Pact-
lie will soon control the road.
A private cabin from London says that the
rumor published last night was cabled to
London and effected the stock of the Cana
dian Pacllie and Grand Trunk , the latter uJ-
vuncing to So percent.
The head of a largo express concern says
the story Is current In Boston nnd Is credited
thore. "What would bo the effect of the
deal ! " was asked of u railway man. "Simply
thir , ; tli.it the ( .rand Trunk nnd Canadian
Pacilie , working in harmony with the Van-
derbilts , could curry freight from the great
west cheaper nuil more oxpo'JUIou ' ly to the
seaboard than any other roads on the conti
nent. It is the best thing which could hap
pen to the now Canadian roads , nnd I know
for iv fact that Mr. Van Home has long been
favorable to it , " "

Loxpox. July 25. [ New York Herald
Cable- Special to Tun BnE.J While the mass
of unemployed Welsh workmen is likely to
bo launched in the near future upon America ,
the British public is gradually becoming
frantic over the overflow of Kusslun Jews
incl other destitute foreigners. It is im
possible to exaggerate the depth and intensity
of feeling upon the subject. While British
statesmen try to disguise the English opposi
tion to Jewish immigration under various
[ ih ises and great efforts are being made to
secretly divert it to America , the whirlwinds
of Applause at the monster mass meeting
icld in Princess hall last night shows
whit : London thinks of this ovor-
sh.idowing issuo. Ono of the most
iery orators was Arnold White , who wont to
Jussia to investigate and tnko the part of
the oppressed Jews. Ills protest against the
arrival of these unfortunates in England was
vehement. Every speaker declared that
Vmcricii was Justified in adopting rigid legis-
atlon to prevent the vicious nnd destitute
ailons from overwhelming the country. The
distinguished committee which conducted
the meeting announced that It will carry the
agitation against do.stituto immigration to
the very foot of the throne if nucestury.
The outiro United States commission in
vestigating immigration was present at the
necting and vigorously applauded some por-
ions of the speeches. T4io commissioners
mvo split up , nnd Mr. Kompstor and Chair
man Weber have gone to St. Petersburg.

, ion is attributed to tills. But friends make
the assertion that ho is upon the point of ac

DECAY OF ARISTOCRACY.
[ roxTixi'r.D rno.M rinsr PAOK. |
Is Lord Salisbury , who has entertained
the queen , nnd who only the
other day had the Gorman emperor
titular his roof. Hatlleld continues to Hour-
Ish. but Ichnbod must soon bo written over
the portals of Burghley. There Is scarcely n
more beautiful or Interesting house to bo
seen anywhere and It stands In a park which
s the glory of the surrounding country.
Some of the finest carvings , granting Gibbons
bens , nro found in the rooms nnd masterpieces
by Paolo Veronese Cartlgllono , OranoKulIor
and Cly adorn the walls. SInce IMW the
property has boon In the sumo family , now
It will pass to some other , Colonel North ,
Bnron Hlrscli or perhaps some other wealthy
American , for thorc nro few persons In
England who can launch out Into such pur
chases as this.
Kcnts No Longer I'ny.
The farms on the estate do not pay under
the altered conditions of agriculture ,
the rents cannot bo got In and the
revenUe no longer meets the expenses. All
must go under the hammer of the auctioneer ,
thus one after another of the hlstoric.'sites nro
disappearing or changing hands. The policy
of Sir Hobcrt Peel in 1S10 Is slowly working
out the results foretold them by many , nnd
the bulk of the people nro thus far bonoiited ,
but old families are going or gone and all
have got the dry rot. Some years ago when
the Great Northern railway was to bo
built the then Marquis Exeter spent a largo
sum of money offending the line and ho suc
ceeded In his object but nt what an expense ,
for not only did ho have to pay' enormous
costs , but ho ultimately actually found it
necessary to make a railroad himself con
necting his property with the main line.
Knitted by the Koad.
He found himself completely Isolated
while the rest of the district was deriving
enormous advantages from the railroad. This
was the first great step toward the impover
ishment of his family. Bad harvests , cheap
vheat from abroad , decaying agriculture ,
unrestricted bargain and compatltlon have
done the rest. Unless these ob.Umntc , slow-
moving old families can adapt themselves to
the limes they will all have to go
the same road. At present scores
of them nro holding ; on by a thread.
Their earrngos are put down , servants
discharged , and their London bout-en are
given up , but these economics will not suffice
to avert ruin which Is spondlly advancing on
all the old stoclt who once thought England
belonged to them. The impending late of
the Burghloy house is not yet known here ,
and therefore the American bidder may
make a sure tiling of being first in the field.
There seems to bo no more money for land
purchase loft , in England. Some great own
ers like the duke of Fife are unloading as fast
as they can. perceiving the evil days that are
coming on them. - The duke's estates , how
ever , are in Scotland , There land still fetches
fancy prices. Mr. Hal four sold some not long
npo at a great profit , but in England land is u
drug in the market , for no sooner do holders
exclaim. "Now wo have roucheil the
lowest prices ! " then there i another
great drop. Unless land happens to
bo in Pall Mall , when it letches
a , it)0,000 : ( ) ! ) , per aero , these things cause only
a momentary stir.
HaU'onr the Coming Man. -
In tlio house of commons wo are at present
much puzzled as to who is to succeed Mr.
Smith as leader of the conservative party.
Vendor is not seriously ill , but is ill enough
and cannot carry on his present work. The
coming man is Balfour. The Irish party are
hoiilng to get John Dillon at their head.
Gladstone is still content with being the
"grand old man" if ho can get baolt his
health , which is much shattered.
Wo nto talking less politics than of outside
cvonU , of n now mooting of the guards , this
time among Coldsreams ! , which caused the
duke of Cambridge to use language strong
enough to blow the roof off a houso. Some
thing or'other is sending the crack regiments
nil to tno dogs.
The government has just had another
severe reverse in the loss of the scat of
Wlsbeck. In spite of its recent bribe of
free education. The dlssontlonod liberals
are returning to the true fold , thus indicat
ing another conservative rout nt the next
general election.
Cilndstonoand his friends are radiant with
joy toJuy. Salisbury will have his eyes
opened to the fact , that the stealing radical
programme does not sucuro radical votes.
The government's majority is being steadily
wiped out.
Parncll has come hack into the house full
of fight and enthusiastic , the meeting at
Dublin having given him fresh heart. It is
believed ho Is now going to make an alliance
once more with the conservative party
as against Gladstone as long as it suits his
purpose In this way ho hopes to dish his re
bellious followers.

Elliott case has taken n reec-ss till Monday
After being in session since Thursday noon
the jury asked the court today for a decision
bearing on the point as to who fired the first
shot in the tragedy , As the testimony on
this point is of .such a voluminous character
the court was obliged to order a recess in
order that ho might have timu to refresh his
memory on the testimony dotirod. There IK
growing anxiety over the failure of the Jury
to return a verdict. There is no reliable in
formation as to the standing of the Jury ,
though it is understood that they are ti-n for
murder in the first degree and two for murder
in the second degree.
