Hr.c.J The Antelope vnlloy , which tra
verses the city of Lincoln from north to
miith and dlvldos the city Into two ntuiost
equal parts , will , beyond the question of a
Joubt , bo tno ccmtor of the greatest activity
within the comltiR few months. At tno
present tlmo It U occupied by hundreds ot
niun and teams In lha construction of tbo
now Koch Island route through this city ,
und if the developments ot the coming few
months ate as fruitful as their promise is
brilliant , the Hock Islund will not
lone occupy the valloy. Other roaus
are already seeking an entrance
to the city through this natur.il
gateway to the southwest. They are the
Chie'tfo , Milwaukee & St. Paul anu the
Buntu Fo. I'lio Fremont , Elkhoru & Mis-
EourtA'alidy lias already determined upon
the occupation of the valley , and Its pussun-
per trains will ilollver their loads of human
freight at an Kaat O street depot before
Jiext Juno. A prominent civil engineer ,
whoso name , If printed here , would be a
EUfllcicnl guarantee of his reliability as an
Informant , this forenoon toolc Tun Bui :

Aeilvc Operations In View.
As the reader Is aware work is already In
progress on the Kock Island and the pros
pective v/ork on the other systems will bo of
greater Interest at the present timo. Iho
Urst work likely to bo done in the valley will
be commenced by the Fremont , Elkhorn &
Missouri Valley. Tuo management of that
company has decided to close u contract with
the Hock Is hind for tbo Joint occupation of
the latter's new passenger depot at Iho cor
ner of Twentieth and O streets. In order to
reach this depot a new line will bo built
from tbo present line , the new branch
leaving the present main line at or near
the now viaduct ever Holdrege street
east of the state fair grounds and running
almost duu south to and bcyonu O street. In
order to roacu this point the road will pass
through ICimmcll & Van Duyn'n subdivision ,
"Vutes & Thompson's subdivision , through
blocks 2 , y , U and T of tno Lincoln Driving
park's llrst subdivision , through clocks 7 , 14
nnd 27 In ICinnoy's O strcot addition to the
southeast corner of block 27 of the same nd-
diion. | At ttio latter corner the now Northwestern -
western freight depot will bo built , or , if u
new structure Is not dlcided upon , a largo
three-story Drick block standing o'l the lot
next to the corner will bo utilized. Thu new
Northwestern freight depot will bo just one
block east of tut now Hock Island passenger
depot on O street *

In this connection them has been a revival
of tncprojectof bringing the Santa Fosystom
into the city ; but thin time the project hai
been taken up by the Santa Fo jicoplo them
selves , tbybitUens of Lincoln bolug us yet In
the dp , t on the matter. The Santa Fo
already runs Its trains Into Superior by rea
eon ot a close trafllo agreement with the Elk
horn road. The plan under contemplation at
the present time Is t > io construction of u line
from this city to a junction with tbo main
linn of the Fremont , Elkborn & Missouri
Valluy road already In operation between
Fremont anil Superior. Tbo cut off from
this city will strike the main line at r. point
neat- Beaver Crossing in York county. Tbo
close relations between the two systems will
enable tbo Santa Fc to Urine Its trains into
Lincoln via the Klkhorn system and an out
let to Omaha , by means of another cutoff
direct from this city to Iho metropolis , \viil
brine the Santa Fo trains into that city.

In order to illustrate tbo contemplated
movements of the Milwaukee people TUB
Jit it's informant hastily sketched u rough
map on tbo reporter's note book showing the
route by wuich that road woulu roach the
city. The proposition now under considera
tion by the directories of the Milwaukee and
Missouri Pacific systems contemplates the
construction of a piecn of track by the tor-
iner company from the south approach of the
Missouri 1'iu'ltic bridge In almost ui. air line
to the city of Lincoln. This now line will
etrlko the Missouri Pacilio linn from Lincoln

LINCOLN' , Isob. , Oct. 2. [ Special to TUB
BKE. | As the campaign In tlio First con-
gr3ional district pro roisos youne Mr.
Bryan realizes that ho Is not making u
triumphal progress toward certain victory
in November. Tivo years ago ho received
a plurality of 0,713 votes ever his republican
opponent , but ot that plurality 5,505 came
from Douglas county , and Douglas county
Is not In Mr. Bryan's dUtrlct this year. His
district Is now composed ot the counties of
Lancaster , Otoo , Pawnee , Caw , niohar-lson
und Numuha. Of thojo counties ho carried
Otue , Nomaha , Cass and Richardson two
years , igo aud lost Lancaster , Johnson and
Pawnee. The seven counties composing the
present First district gave Mr. Bryan 510
plurality two years aeo. Iu order to bo
elected this fall ho must hold every vote cast
for him two yeari ago.
Can Mr. Bryan hold bis 510 votes )
Two years ago tbo republican candidate
wasV. . J. Connell of Omiha , while the
democratic nominee wasV. . J. Bryan of
Lincoln. Till ) fact alone lost the republican
nominee nearly 1OJOotes in Lancaster
oounly. For the llrst time In the docudo a
Lincoln man hud been nominated for con-
irres ? . For more than tun years Lincoln
republicans and Lincoln democrats hud beun
in the hopalcss minority when the nominat
ing convention assembled. The strength of
Omaha and Douclas county in the conven
tions of botti political partiei bad always
prevented Lincoln from obtaining recogni
tion on the congressional ticket. To say
tnat the voters of the Capital citv were
highly dlssatlstlod with this state . < f affairs
is to underrate tnoir enthusiasm and under
estimate their pride In their citv nnd Its
brichl and brainy men , lo say the least.
Two years ago , however , this condition of
affairs wus very materially altered. A Lin
coln man had been nominated for congress
and in spitn of the fact that that man wus a
democrat , local pride prompted at least
l.OJO voters of Lincoln and Lancaster county
to throw aside tnelr party olleirianco for the
time being and cast tneir ballots for a fellow
citi/on. The democratic state ticket re
ceived un average vote of 2,7111 in tiiis county
while Mr. lrvan received : i , { > 57 , running
over a thousand ahead of his ticket.
Unfortunately for Mr. Bryan local pride
will not come to his sssistiuco in the present
campaign. The republicans of Lincoln and
Laucastorcounty are united aud enthusiastic.
Their candidate is a Lincoln man. Judge
Field first became a rosidontof Lincoln when
ho was but 1- years old. He received his
education ut Lincoln schools and universi
ties. He studied law with Lincoln attorneys
and attained prominence in his profession at
the Lincoln bar , lie has frequently been
honored with positions of dignity and honor
in the legislative bulls and upon Iho bunch.
Ho is a young man and enjoys the confidence
of Lincoln republicans , young nnd old.
The thoustiud and odd republicans who
complimented their democratic follow citizen
two years ago will vote for their own candi
date this fall , and Judge Field will go out of
Lancaster county with at least 1,500 major
ity. Right here Iu Lancaster county exists
a happy state of affairs that will encompass
the defeat of Congressman Bryan.

fute the story that the last legislature was
more uxtruvagunt than its predecessors , and
proceeded lo state that the estimated ex-
panics of the last legislature were some
$18.000 loss than the estimated expenses of
Iho preceding ono. But the gentleman for
got to Btuto that the actual expenses wore
far in excess ot the estimated expenses , and
that the expenditures were far iu excess of
any preceding session. In this connection
it may be said that a walkaway
Is predicted for J. A. Pipar , the
republican nominee for representative ,
over the above iiume. Following Mr , Ful
ton , Hon. Ciomcr Thomas recited his little
effusion , which was cut short for the want

been engaged in the mercantile business in
the city of Morlla , Mcx. , arrived hero to

riot which occurred In that city last Sunday ,
and of which very brief mention was made
in the City of Mexico dispatches. Ho stated
that it was one of the most exciting and plti
iablo scenes ever witnessed in that part ol
the republic , and that Another serious out
break ot the same kind is threatened at any

Morlia Is tbo ciiinta ) or the state of
unacan , and the residence ot the archbishop
of the Uiocoso. Its poor people are on the
v rge of starvation , owing to the fatal full

scarcity of all other food supplies.
' \Vnon the famine was threatened severa
months tigo , " saW Mr. Ficlay , "several of
tno merchants of Morlia contracted for
largo quantities of cprn in the United
States , iho total shipments araoununz to
seventy-live or eighty cars , which was
enough to nuvo supplied the sufferine
people. These speculators , however , put up
the prices and extorted what little money
the poor people had in.a short time. For the
past two iro'nths thov suffering among the
poor has been intense and many deaths from
starvation have occurred. The streets became
came thronged with beggars , hungry mon
women und children , who made heart-rend
ine appeals for help.
"This was Kept up until last Sunday night ,
when the starving horde organized themselves
solves into a mob and , driven by desperatiou
begun a concerted attack , upon thu feed stores
of the city. There were fully 0,000 people In
the mob and the police wore utterly power
less to stop its progress. Ono feed store
after another was entered , and as but little
uoni was found , the frenzy of the mob In
creased. The two regiments of federal
cavalry and ono of infantry stationed nt
Morlia were called out to quell the riot , but
their appearance only added to thu dusper-
atioa of the starving , pnoplo. The com
mander planted the soldiers in front of the
mob , They fought their way through , sev

OTTAWA , Out. , Oct. 2. Thu government
has taken an important slop with respect to
Iho quarantine reserve In the International
boundary in the northwest territories. Sonic
years ago with a view to effectively proeent-
ing the introduction of the cattle dUcaso
from the United Slates into the territories , a
reservation was mnclo of the llrst two town
ships of Dubllo lands along the International
boundary from tbo western boundary , qt
Manitoba to the Hocky mountain's
as a quarantine ground , "within which
to graze cuttle Imported from the
United States during the ninety
flays quarantine. Within the past few year *
considerable settlement has taken place along
tbis Hue , Impairing the elllcieflcy of. the quar
antine reserve. The government , tbcrcfo.ro
decided to set apart now quarantine grounds
and in place of lha reservation stretching for
hundreds of miles along the boundary three
stations bavo boon reserved west of the
fourth meridian at points convenient to the
usual avenues of access lo Canada from Mon
tana. In addition to the convenience which
the change will make , il will release a largo
Iract of country from reservation and onka
