The local detectives succeeded In placing a
couple of men behind the bars yesterday
who turned out to bo well worth the trouble
that It cost to discover them. The men arc
John Uradcn and Frank Uttle , and along
with the prisoners the police picked up cvi-
denco enough to show that they wcro not
visitors In the city for their health.
Last week a young fellow bilked the firm
of Norlem it Uarcntson , feed dealers , at
Eighteenth and Lcavcnworth streets , out of
$24 on a forged chuck , and the detectives
set out to discover the crook , who was
evidently an old hand at the business. This
morning Detectives Haze , Savage and
Dempsey ran their game to earth In a room
over the northwest corner on Thirteenth
and Douglas streets and arrested the two
men.
men.Uradcn is supposed to bo the man who vic
timized Harcntsen , and the material for un
limited swindling of like character was
found In ills valise. There was a package of
blank checks on the United States National
bank of this city , and another p.ickago on
the Hank of Commerce. Thcro was also a
draft on the I'acillo bank of Han Francisco
for ( ( XX ) . which had evidently been forged for
the purpose of taking In some green country
man on a confidence game.
A full Ilimllam outllt was also found In the
grip which had apparently been prepared
with a view to a wholesale swoop on local
business iirms. The llimflam racket bus
not been worked In tills city
for some time , and the crooks would
no doubt have .reaped a hanest
had nol the vigilance of the police overtaken
them before they had time to begin opora-
tloms. The game is one of the oldest ones ,
but is nevertheless often successful. The
crook entcru a store w 1th an envelope and $10
which he is anxious to send to his sister. lie
asks leave to use a pen to address the en
velope and then discovers that ho hasn't the
amount in bills ana asks for a $10 1)111 ) in ex
change for silver. This Is given htm , and
after plat-Ing It In the envelope ho discovers
that he is a quarter short of the change and
goes out to borrow it , leaving the envelope
containing the bill In the nands of his vic
tim. Tlu latter discovers , too late to catch
the thief , that the envelopes have been
switched and that the supposed bill is only a
piece of blank paper.
Uradcn had a lot of envelopes already
directed to various young ladies , two to each
one. Ono is in a slightly coarser hand than
the other , so that the operator might not
make any mistake as to the envelope which
contained the real $10 hill. The other en
velope was already loaded with a piece of
paper folded llko a bill to deceive the pros
pective victim. Btjadcn has only been In
town about two weeks , but his confederate
has been hero for some time They w\ll \ both
bo charged with passing forged checks , and
with the evidence foundtin their possession
the police think they have a sure case against
thorn ,
When searched at the Jail more flimflam
stuff was discovered. Two neai little trick
padlocks , which the swindler can unlock
but the sucker can't , a roll of counterfeit
monev and a lot of blank cheeks on banks all
over the country.
Three cheeks had been filled out. Ono
was forfcJ.nuo , dated November ill , Ib'J'J ' , and
drawn on the Nevada bank of San Fran
cisco. Another was dated December 32 and
drawn on the First National bank of Pueblo.
These cheeks had a signature that was writ
ten so poorly that it would bo impossible for
Any one to make it out. They were to bo
used in working the old freight bill racket.

NEW YOKK , Feb. 15.- Investors and spceu
lators In bonds and stocks were puwled this
morning by the vague character of the
Washington dispatch , telling of the decision
of the cabinet yesterday against an Imme
diate issue of bonds ; and , as some of tlio reports
ports of. Interviews with Secretary Fostoi
contained glaring misstatcmeiits , there was
a general hesitation about forming opinion !
as to the real condition of affairs in tht
Cabinet. This hesitation was shown in tlu
stock market , where the trading was Irregu
lar and spasmodic.
The only excitement shown was In Sugai

Inflow of selling orders through commlsslor
houses caused a rapid decline In many dlrec

fcring most from this liquidation. Then

The elTect of the action on the largo Ger

remains to bo seen. Other exchange houses
arc reticent as to their own policy , and claim
that they cannot see into even the immediate

clent supply of bills from the west and south.
Many efforts have been made in Wall street

case was argued and submitted. Today
.Indue Irvine , before whom the case was ar
gued. handed down his opinion , in which ho
hold that the restraining order should become -
come permanent and perpetual ; that Hr.iin-
ard should forever be enjoined from interfer
ing with the management of the hotel and
that he should occupy it only as a guest. In
addition to all of that the order read that
when ho wanted to stop at the place ho
should bo treated the same as the other
guests , only that he should prepay the usual
charges of compensation for the occupancy of
rooms , board and accommodations. This or

KANSAS CITY PACKERS ARE AROUSED
Growth of the Omnlm Stock .Market Cam *

Olllcci from Tlili City.
Kansas City packers have determined to
fight the scheme proposed by W. 15 , Skinner
of the Scutli Omaha stock yards , to district
the territory upon a mileage basis , and
already pressure is being brought to bear
upon the roads centering In the city by the
Kaw to resist any attempt to change the ex
isting order of things. The Kansas City
Star says speaking of this matter : "Kansas
City dealers are awakening to the fact that
the Omaha crowd is pushing the road hard ,
and there Is now some likelihood of the
scheme being put throuch unless some action
is taken by Kansas City in self protection , "
and then prints the following interview with
u prominent live stock man of the proposed
change :
There Is room enough and business onoilKli

City , Omalm , St. .losuph , Alchlson , I.i'u\c'M-
wortliand Kansas t'lly to thrive ami litrome
manufacturing and jobbing cities many times
as great as they aru now.
Whllo Kansas City , us the largest railway
ci-ntur , the most naturally located geogiunh-
Icully , will load all the lest , ut the same time
them Is a common Interest tliat should cause
tlio cities commercially to bo united as Mis
souri river eltlo-t. Wo should 1)0 ) content to
be kept as nearly on an equality with each
other from u tiansportatlon .standpoint as
natural uomllUons will permit. This has been
the Idea upon which llu- railroads for the past
decadu have worked. There are curtain tor-
iltorles of the north and northwest where
Omaha and Slon\ City have lower rates than
Kansas City and loner Missouri liver cities.
TlieiKiiru oilier territories In I ho south and
southeast \\hoio Kansas City , St. Joseph ,
Ati'hNon and l.etmmworth have loner uites
than Sioux City and Omaha , whllo to the east
and nest all arc on tlin same tiasls ,
Thu lalhoads which ha\o Interests In the
Missouri ihur cities adjusted the basis , and
while Kaunas City meiciiiints , inamifacttiicrs
and live stock dealers have lim felt that tak
ing natural conditions lulu consldeiatlon
Omaha and Slwix City ha\e the. best of the
bargain , at the s.uuo time on the prlnelplu
that sisters should live In harmony they have
thought ii orocould bo gained by woiklng to
thei-omiiioii Intoiest.
It/ has Ion , ; hi-eii n hobby of Omaha packers
and stok buyers that by | ) i > rslstuntly Keening
thu .subject bufno Iho tallioads they could In
the end Induce the rallioad managers to
change their piesent neutral position as bu-
tneen Omalm und Kansas City and establish
an open dlscilmltiatlon In favor of Omaha.
That tht' pill iiil 'ht bo 111010 cnslhr swallowed
they have tried to sweaten It by saying to the
lalhoads : It will bu satisfactory to us to ad
vance. Kansas City rates and leave ours un
changed , not taking Into conslileiatlon the
Inloicsts of the livestock Hhlupei or buyer of
the pioduct.
The piesent adjustment of rates from that
territory was mudo after a long tlplit between
conlllotltu railroad Interests and an agree
ment finally made that , It was thought , would
place tht- shipper In position to go to the. mar
ket he found most satisfactory and In the end
nuch railroad would gut u fair sham of thu
biisliies-i.
That Omaha knew something or the situa
tion IsslioxMihy their argument Unit one of
the lines should go out of the the stock busi
ness on some of Its branches. 1 f , as they claim ,
comparatively nonu of the Nebraska stock
comes to Kansas City they would not bo bcno-
lllted by an advance In thu Kansas City rates ,
as proposed and thu railroads would lese
money If they accepted the proposition as to
Kansas and made half of the dllletencaby
advancing Kansas City rates , ami the other
half by leduclng Omaha. Thu Kansas shipper
who now comes to Kansas City and Kt. Joseph ,
would pay moiu on his business , except an oc
casional car to Omaha. The Nebiaska shipper
who guts no lediu-lloii to Omaha , but an ad
vance to Kansas City and St.lo-.uph would
lese the opportunity to use our market. All
this Is to bu done that an Ideal system of rates
us Nhown by maps , utu. , inliht.u.xlst.
And yet withal the specious reasoning
contained in the Interview it is a fact that
Kansas City is so thoroughly jealous of her
growing liv'al , South Omaha , that it has
continually played tlio doif in the manger
when the question of rates from southern
points to Omaha came up in late meetings.
So deliberate has Kansas City been in its
attempt to belittle Omaha as a stock mar
ket that it has blocked every railroad
friendly to this city , making Kansas City n
gateway from the Texas panhandle , and lias
succeeded in maintaining excessive rates
upon Texas cattle and particularly dinners ,
a class of cattle greatly desired at South
Omaha. The difterential upon this class of
cattle alone is'JO a car in favor of Kansas
City , stud yet she urges a friendly inter-
I'hange of business and interests. Packers
desiring Texas dinners are compelled to pur
chase this class of stock on the Kansas City
market and ship here , otherwise they would
virtually have to abandon that form of pack
ing. With the buildin ; , ' of the Koek Island
from Hartington to a point in Kansas , the
distance from the Pan Hundlu of Texas
would be In favor , geometrically , of this
city , and the building of this road seems to
be the only hope Omaha has to successfully
meet the tactics of Kawtown.
Mr. Skinner says ho has assurances that
his proposition will hiivj fair treatment , but
could he be backed by a live freight bureau
the chances of sui-cess in districting the ter
ritory would be that much stronger.
