d Whether or not the courts of tills county
will modify tlto injunction granted by .Judgo
Doano 0110 mill otio-hiilf ynnrs ate , restrain
ing the delivery to the Union Depot company
of the 8150,000 of viaduct bonds and also ro-
Btralnlnj ? the c-lty from deeding to the Union
Pacific Hallway company the lands and lots
held In trust by Alvln Humidors , Is a ques
tion that rests wholly in the hands of Judge
Ferguson of the equity division of the dis-
trlctcourt , bcforu whom the arguments \vcro
made yesterday afternoon.
Carrying out the terms of an agreement
made several days ago , the CIIHO was called
promptly on time , with the docket showing
that the issues wore Joined witn Ernest
Stnht on ono side and the i-ity of Omaha on
the other. That was the lep.il title and the
iiamo which had been carried by the injunc
tion ever slnco the Union depot fight found
its way into thecourts. . The Htuht side was
represented by John D. Howe , who appeared
in his own behalf , with J. C. Cowln and J.
M. Woolworth assisting and appearing for
the people. On the other side wenJlty ( At
torney Conneli. O. .1. Urr-eno and 1'residcnt
Kiniball of the Union Depot company.
Mr , ( 'finneirs 1'le.ii for the I'lilim 1'nclllc.
City Attorney Conneli was given the first
hearing and , addressing his remiirlcs to the
court , said that the object of the gathering
was to present some arguments to show that
the old injunction which had tied up the
construction nnd completion of the Union
depot ought to be modified to such an extent
that the tlf > 0,000 of depot bonds could DO
cunccled and lhat the deeds to the lands
held in trust by Alvln Sautulers , the deeds
to the Wlnspear triangle anil those to the
city blocks from b to 1' inclusive might pass
tothocitj. Ho said that as far as ho was
concerned he did not care whether the depot
was located at Tenth and Mason streets or
at the foot of Knrnnin stnnt. What ho
wanted was to have the depot light brought
to a head and the matter settled for all time
to come.
Attorney Cowln In reply devoted an hour
or more to the rcauinc of an agreement that
was made with the Union Pad He company
in 18711 , by which the company WHS to build a
union depot and maintain Its terminals on
this side of the river , providing the city
voted certain aid. Turning his guns , Mr.
Cowln remarked that the agreement was
years ago when the city was smaller than
now , but when the administration of its
utTairs was in honest hands. The greatest
obstructionists that the dty had to contend
with were those in authority who would
stand by and argue in favor of ono road to
the exclusion of all others. Tills , lie said ,
was not talk , but the opinion of the railroad
men who were not a part nnd parcel of the
Union Pacific , if Omaha was ever to bo a
city , it would have to open its arms and not
show all of the favors to one road -tho road
that had ever been a curse to the com
munity.
The city council , Mr. Cowin urged , wanted
to deed away its possessions and give the
Union Pacific full sway to do as It pleased ,
uud without any legal restrictions upon its
actions.
"That Is all that is in the case , as I under
stand it , " Interrupted Judge Ferguson.
"Tho exact point , " replied Mr. Cowln ,
"and iliey claim that a city ot 140,000 should
yilaeo itself in a position where it cannot let
another road within its limits. "
( ilvhlK SoiiKitlilng Tliey Jlil Not OVm.
Continuing his argument , Mr. Cowln
stated that it was only when the council
Started to do this very tiling that ho secured
* the Injunction. Even now the council had
not Klvon up the idea of letting the railroad
company have everything that it wanted ,
for an ordinance , .he declared , had been in
troduced and read twice , giving the Union
Pacific Just what was proposed at the time
that the Stuht injunction stopped a former
deal.
"Now , " said Mr. Cowiu , "they are hero
asking that this injunction bo modified that
they may give away something which they
have no legal right to dispose of. They want
to go on In an absolutely autocratical man
ner , picking up the streets and alleys and
passing them over to the company on a silver
platter. They don't know where these
streets arc , hut they know that there are
jicres of them , and they are willing that
they should bo given as free as so much
voter.
"Tho ordinance of which we have heard
so.much provides that the city shall reserve
the right to construct sewers in the streets
. which it is proposed to decil away. This Is
n wonderful right and a wonderful assault
upon the railroad company.
" 1 want to submit that the city council has
no right to give away the streets of the
tiil.V , and that , that body cannot oven change
the grade of any street after it has once
been established ; it cannot oven sell , lease
or dispose of any of the property of the city ,
but now the lawmakers would not only
vacate , . but it would give awav the
"lands which thov hold in trust for the pee
ple. The streets of the city of Omaha do
do not belong to the city council and I want
the city attorney to learn that fact. "
Indulged In Porsouitlltlci.
Hero City Attorney Council intimated that
Mr ; . Cowin was appearing in behalf of some
road that wanted to got a foothold in
Omaha.
This Mr. Cowin denied and waxed warm.
Continuing his remarks ho said that ho was
representing the interests of the people and
not fho rights of nny of the roads. "Did the
people in IST'J think tnat It was to their in
terest to have but one roadf Great God I
have wo not been bottled up long enough
with ono road ) "
All1. Council Intirrupted bv asking : "Why
have you not not other roads ? "
"If 1 know the inside history of city af
fairs as well as you do I might answer that
question , " retorted Mr. Cowin.
Going back to the argument , Mr. Cowlr
urged that the streets of tne city should nol
bo deeded away ; that if they were a court
of chancer.v would interfere and stop tin
proceedings. H was an outrage , ho declared
to contemplate such a thing and a violation
of nnv system of government.
Have Given Uji Too .Mue.li Already.
J. M. Woolworth reviewed the history ol
the advent of the Union Pacille road , the
voting of flSU.OOO of bridge and ruilroail
bonds and the controversies of the past
twenty i ears , with the numerous attempts
at securing a union depot. The controversy
now , he declared , was not with the Union
Pacific , but with its progeny , the Union
Depot company , a company that came before
the people and said that it was willing to dc
nil that it agreed to do , "Hut what has il
agreed to do ? " he asked.
"Time has passed on , " Mr. Woolwortl :
continued , "and now wo are confronted wltli
a report of the city council in which that
body proposes to abandon everything that
wo have worked so long 'to secure. Tin
whole thing now rests upon the mere faci
that a committee of the council will give tin
Union Paeille company any and everything
that It asks. 1 do not call this a settlement
It is simply opening the way for new contra
verses and placing the whole matter Jus
whore it was live years ago , the Unloi
Pacific company controlling the situatioi
and the business of the city of Omaha. "
Other lloiuU Knocking fur Admission. [
John D. llowo declared that it was not hi
purpose to talk upon the subject , "but hi
could not sit still and see any person ad vanci
the theory of giving away the streets , land
and the property of the city. He argue *
that the council had no more right to dUpes
of the public property than il would have t
sell the property of a private citizen.
"What a spectacle is presented her
today. " ho continued. "Two roads , th
Milwaukee nnd the Kock Island , seeking ad
mission to our city , and the council standini
in the background Haying , 'you keep out , fo
wepropose to discharge all of our trust
and let the Union Pncitlo kuep us bottled u
Jtor nil time to como , ' "
Turning another gun on the council , Mi
IIowu said that the railroad companle
could not touoii the mayor any more thu
IMy could -touch the north pole , but wit !
the council it wns illffnrrnt. "Tho t'nlcn
Paeillc company could go to the council nnd
col whatever It wanted. To Hint body It
had nnld , 'Clivn us what wo wnnt and we
will have the biggest monopoly In the
world. ' "
Wnnti-d n Depot , Not llltorjr.
C. J. Greene said that he wan not in the
courts to recite ancient history , as that was
not the iUostlon | of the hour. What the people -
plo of Omaha wanted was n depot and not
history. There wore men who had made
history for twenty years , but they were not
the men who had made Omnhn a city.
Tout-lung upon the ( | tie.ition til the streets
referred to by Mr. Cowln , Mr. Grcono said
that most of them were vacated twenty
years ago. Ho insisted that the Union Pa
cific company had fulfilled every agreement
that it had made with the city and now nil
that the company wanted was n modification
of the Injunction that the union depot might
bo completed In accordance with the terms
of the contract.
Air. C'oimnll'd ClnKliiK Appeal *
III closing the argument Mr. Council said
that he had no apology to offer for the rail
roads , as they had never given Omaha fair
treatment. The question was , would Omaha
L'O ahead and do what was the best for thu
city and for all parties concerned. Without
attempting to fix the responsibility , the fail
ure of the railroads to construct the depot
had caused the loss of thousands ol dollars
to the city , and It was a burning question of
whetl'cr or not Omaha should bo used as a
cat's-paw by the Milwaukee iand the Hock
Island to pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
It was absurd to talk about ejecting the
railroad companies from the lands that were
deeded twenty years ago. The dty could
ordain that other roads could come Into the
depot , hut how could they get beyond If the
Union Pacific company did not see lit to allow
them the right of way over their tracks. The
city should have the right to say what kind
of an ordinance should be passed , but what
ever it was ho hoped that U would bo in the
Interest of the taxpayers and beneficial to
the city at largo. The urging of the disso
lution and thu modification of the injunction ,
Mr. Council said , was Doing nrced by the
heaviest taxpayers , atul in support of the
statement he read a petition by Milton
Honors , Henry Yates , Dr. Miller and others.
To show that the city would bo n gainer
by the transaction Mr Council declared
that if the Depot company was allowed to go
on with its work and the proposed ordinance
was passed the city would get the Win-
spear triangle , worth Si" > 0,000 , and a deed to
the five blocks of land , blocks lj to P In
clusive. There was no person , ho said , try
ing to keep out the Iowa roads. They could
come over the East Omaha bridge , or they
could buy up the Nebraska Central fran-
ililses and build a bridge of their own. It
would bo bettor , ho thought , for the city If
; ho ends of the Union Pacific bridge were
boarded up and the other roads compelled to
seek another entrance to the city.
After hearing the arguments Judge Fergu
son asked for the authorities that ho might
nvestigato the question , saying that ho
would take the case under advisement and
tecide it at some later date.

PANAMA , Colombia ( via Galveston , Tex. ) ,
April 12. ( By Mexican Cable to the New
York Herald Snoclal to Tne Bun. |
Grave political troubles are reported from
nil parts of Peru. 'I ho most serious disorder
so far reported occurred at the towns of
Cutcrno and Choto. An armed body of men ,
headed by Gabriel Ulvcra and a man named
Guerre , attaeucd the governor's palaeo.
Viva Pierola" was their battle cry. The
attack upon the police began at : i o'clock In
the afternoon and the siege lasted until 'J
o'clock on the following day During all that
time the mob held possession of the town
and made known their political sentiments
by continually shouting "Viva Pierola , " the
ex-dictator who is in exile.
While ono portion of the mob held the
town another body besieged the governor's
palace and many volleys wore ilrcd at the
ollielal residence. Uosalo Pilla , one of the
defenders of the house , was killed. Just as
the mob was about to batter down the doors
of the palacewhile their leaders were shout
ing "Kill the governor , " the troops , who had
been sent for , apjeared. The soldiers
charged upon the rioters. Rivera , their
old leader , was killed by the llrst
volley iired by the troops. With the
loss of their leader and the approach of
the soldiers the rioters became disheartened ,
They ceased firing and iled In all directions ,
but they cavetuliy retained their arms , which
will , no doubt , bo used on another occasion.
Besides the leader , Uivera , three other
rioters and n child were killed. More than
twenty persons wore wounded during the
light.
An incident similar to this , but less
bloody in Us results , occurred in Lima a
few nights ago. While n band was playing
on the plaza in front of the president's palaeo
a crowd gathered and someone raised the
cry , "Viva Pierola , " which was repeated by
nearly all the persons in the crowd. The
guards around the palace were about to lire
when the crowd Iled. Affairs in Peru appear
to bo drifting rapidly to revolution.

IN SOl'TII DAKOTA.
Much IVuter I'pH nnd n llnrrlcniio Hluw for
Siorx FALLS. S. D. , April 12. [ Special
Telegram to TnuBr.K. ] Reports have been
received from all parts of the state covering
the great storm which swept over the north
west yesterday and today. Very little damage -
ago was uono in South Dakota , but the entire -
tire state was flooded and in many regions
the rainfall amounted to a cloudburst.
In Mitchell tlio streets were filled to n
depth of several inches , and not only was all
passage stopped , but all Milliter matter was
carried away. Thc.Iim river , which ordinar
ily runs twenty feet below tin ) town , over
flowed its batiks and became u raging Jlood ,
sweupimr away buildings and doing
much damage to lands. All the
bridges near the city were washed out and
communication by road and railways was
destroyed. The river is still rampant , and it
is feared that there will bo considerable loss
to buildings along its banks for several
miles below.
In Union county , seventy miles south of
here , many farm houses were blown down
by the wind and scores of barns and sheds
were destroyed. The storm which laid
Akron , la. , in ruins traveled in a south
westerly direction through the southern
part of the state , cutting a wide track
through the thickly settled district , and
while there was no loss of lifo so far re
ported , trees , small buildings and stock were
damaged to a great extent. A heavy rain
accompanied the wind and flooded the entire
country , washing out bridges and roads and
injuring the new crop which had just begun
to sprout.
At Canton the electric light plant wires
were burned out and poles in many sections
of the city leveled. The wind was terrific
and several buildings were blown from their
foundations.
The storm did no damage at Watertown or
Chamberlain , but a tremendous rain fell ,
heavier that for ten years past. Taking the
state as a whole , the ground Is drenched
with water for two or three feet in depth
and the crop for this year is certain. The
Sioux and Jim rivers are over their banks
throughout their lengths and are still rising.

the following dispatch was received from
Ypsllantl by the Associated press :
"This city" is in ruins ; a cyclone struck
here tonight , coming from the southwest
and sweeping everything in- its path.
Thousands of dollars worth of damage
was caused by t. Tho'storm took a strip
through the business portion of the
town , moving houses from their founda
tions and raising others. Clcary business
college nnd Cuitis carriage factory are in
ruins. The Hawkins house nnd Occidental
hotel are badly damaged and the roofs of
half the stores were simply blown off.
'I wenty store fronts were also smashed in. On
Huron street the rubbish is piled ten feet
high. The postofllco building was demol
ished and the mail scattered in the street.
All telegraph , telephone and electric light
wires are down , leaving the city in dark
ness. Everybody is up watching property
that has been exposed to the storm.
As fur as can bo ascertained at present
nobody was killed , but quite a number re
ceived injuries moro or less serious.

At 7i0 : ! last night a tornado struck Ypsi-

whether there was any loss of lifo or not.
Advices from different parts of Indiana
are to the effect that the storm of last night
and yesterday did much damage in many
sections of that state.
Crops , orchards , farm houses and outbuild
ings were demolished near Albany , Tex. ,

The Apollo club has scored Its first finan
cial success. Its hitherto almost Invariable
ill luck has been broken , and ills tobohopi'd
the good fortune inaugurated last night will
continue through this and many seasons.
The club deserves a better fate than the un-
consclonablo weather disturbances Unit had
como to bo almost proverbial attendants
on all entertainments under the aus
pices of the Apollos. The club
that is instrumental In bringing to
Omaha such a musical organization as
last evcnhnr performed at Exiwsltion hall
deserves well at the bunds of Uio people of
Omaha : It has carnod Its reward and it
should bo ungrudgingly given it. That
great barn , with Us chvus seats , thai fills
the place of a concert hall in Omaha , was
almost completely lllled last evening , and
tbo largo audience , rcpresenfitlvo of the
best of citizens , were given such a treat as
is rarely tendered outside of the great cities
of the east , and appreciation was evident
throughout the evening.
Tin1 work 'of the Seidl orchestra Is beyond
the criticism of the writer , while his admira
tion Is so great that to praise it seems almost
equally above bis powers ; he is In the posi
tion of Browning's lover , who could not
praise ho loved so much. A new light and a
luminous meaning arc given to the sup
posedly well known Tnnnhuuser overture
in the rendition of Mr. Seidl's artists. It
must have been n revelation to many
who thought they knew the work last
evening. The artistic gems of the concert
were the numbers allotted to the orchestra
alono. The vocal features were admirable ,
tint they were eclipsed by the instrumental.
The vorspiel to the lirst act of "Lohengrin , "
descriptive of the descent of the Holy
Grail , was interpreted with a power and a
tenderness that Wagner himself would
surely have acknowledged as an entirely
adequate expression of his conception.
Isolde's swan song , that "choicest llower
of Wacner's ereativo faculty , " was so
rendered that ono felt that the introduction
of the human voice would have marred its
perfect beauty. But the gem of the even
ing the of the "
was interpretation "Sieg
fried" ' waldwebcn : listening to it the wrapt
auditor felt rather than heard all the stir
rings of the multitudinous leafage , all the
trilling tale of Uio bird it was a triumph
of consummate art. Siegfried's death from
the "Gotterdammering" was hardly less
perfectly presented.
The vocal numbers wore notable for the
perfection of concert in the work of thr >
singers. The quintet from the third act of
the "Mcistersingers" and the scene of the
Valkyries in the last act of the "Walkuro"
were admirably rendered. Miss .Inch's re
cital of Elsa's dream from "Lohengrin"
pleased the audience so much that it did its
utmost to induce a repetition , but in vain.
The Elsa and Ortrud duct was carefully sung
by Miss Fabris and Miss Stein , the rich con
tralto of the l rN4-r lady showing to line ad
vantage. The whole concert was ono never
to bo forgotten by those privileged to enjoy
it.
