In Detail.
LINCOLN , Juno 22. [ Special to Tnn UEB. ]
-The regard for Bishop Bonacum among the
parishioner * of St. Theresa's cathedral has
boon atcadlly lessening for some time , but It
vr.iA not until today that the f col Ing against
him broke out Into open Indignation , almost
approaching denunciation , and probably tno
richest man In the church , Hon. John Fitz
gerald , is quoted as saying that the bishop
has received the last dollar from him for any
MurHse. | The trouble today was occasioned
by the bishop's summarily dismissing Father
loughran , rector of St , Theresa's pro-
cathedral , and onn of the most popular
priests of the dloccso. It appears that this
afternoon the bishop requested Father
Ixucrhr.in to wrlto n certain letter to Arch
bishop Salolll , but the reverend father re
fused to wrlto what the bishop dlstated.
liaising his right hand the bishop said :
"I call God to witness that if you do what
I ask you I will make you the first man In
the dlocoso , "
Again the father refused , saying that ho
had alienated many friends among the clergy
and laity by his allegiance to the bishop and
ho would not perform the duties of his pri
vate secretary.
Purpling with rngo , the bishop thundered
out , "Bcgono from my mom , sir , and prepare
to receive your exeat. "
"Tho sooner the better , " replied the rec
tor , as ho withdrew to his own room , and
when ho came out 5 half hour later ho found
the papers of dismissal lylugon his door- '
Atop. '
Tills action of the bishop , In direct defiance -
fiance of the orders of Satolll , Is regarded as
Bottling that ho will nlther bo summarily dls-
Uilsscd from the bishopric or transferred to
fiomo other point.

In nn Interview , with a DEB reporter ,
Dlshop Bonacum this evening said in rela
tion to the above story , which emanated from
a friend of Father Loughran , that there wcro
numerous statements therein which are un-
truo. "It Is true that I had had trouble
with Father Loughran , but It was duo to an
outburst of anger on Father Loughran's
part. This morning I was very busy and
handed him n draft of n letter to Satolll ,
which I requested him to write.
ITuthor Ijoughrun is n confirmed dyspeptic ,
nnd was not in a vorv good humor nt
the time nnd accordingly replied In anger
that ho was not my private secretary and
would notr wrtto the letter. The discussion
then passed to , other matters which I need
not mention , and ho finally asked for his re
lease. I prepared his oxcat soon afterword
nnd laid It at his door , and in It I praised
him to the skies , for 1 really llko Father
XiOURhran.
"What I told him , which has boon mis
quoted and misconstrued , was that If it
were not for his temper ho would
bo the ilrst man in the dloccso.
But Father Loughran will not leavo.
Ho will think bettor of it when his anger
cools off. There Is one thing I want particu
larly to say. I would not hnvo you think
that ho has been writing my letters to Sat-
olli. These I have written myself with the
exception of perhaps two or three , as 1 write
all my letters on important matters myself.
This affair has been exaggerated and mis
stated In a local evening paper and I feel
that I have already been Injured sufficiently
by the misrepresentations in the press and
elsewhere during the past eight months. "

of the tno old parties , ho said , was high and
low tariff , but the issue of the new party
was silver. The now party had pre
dicted the present condition of money if
Cleveland was elected. Ho attributed the
scarcity of money to the withdrawal of so
much to supply the demand of the old coun
tries , some of which have boon forced to
adopt the cola standard. Ho Is not In favor
of a state bank issue but of unlimited coinage -
ago of silver. He stated ho would not vote

DREOIS OF DIFFERENTIALS
Railroad Eatomakors Are Checking Up
Untlor the Now Law.
HOW IT WILL AFFECT OMAHA SHIPPERS
Munn of the F.lkhorn U Secretary of the
Now Pniiongor Association Orgnnl-
xntlon 1'orfeclod Other Ilnm-
bllnRi of the Hull.
While It hat not been definitely decided by
all the railroads in Nebraska to put Into
active operation the new maximum rate law ,
It is generally supposed thfU August 1 will
sco the now rates in cftcct. The ratcmnkors
have been Instructed to go ahead with the
check , and for the next three weeks the rap-
rcscntatlvcs of the lines In Interest will
dream of dlfferontlals , basing points and
other abstruse problems that arlso In freight
dopartmonts.
Instead ot Omaha boltig made the basing
point , the tendency seems to bo to make
Lincoln the basing point nnd observe
the Omahu-Llncoln differential of 15 cents on
ilrst class business In adjusting rates from
this city.
In making Lincoln the basis ot competition ,
it Is locally asserted that the hand of the
Burlington Is seen waving Its allies on to
the state capital whore It has operated for
years without hindrance.
Union 1'nclflo Haiidlcniped. |
Checking up the rates under the law shows
a remarkable condition of affairs between
the Burlington and Union Pacific. Out of
twcnty-sovon common pj > lnts where both
roads touch in this state the Burlington
enjoys the shortest mllcaga to twenty-two
of them. Should the present idea prevail
on the long lines not meeting the short linos'
miloagn In competition fo * certain business
the Union Pacitlo would practically bo com
pelled to retire from business at these points.
In meeting the Elichoru In competition the
Burlington will have to rotlro In a number of
places , out none of the roads seem to bo
handicappcdns Is the Union Pacific.
But the difllculty is not alone confined to
the roads mentioned , the Missouri Pacific
coming in for a reduction which promises to
rutiro Atchlson , Leavonworth , St. Joe and
Kansas City from the Held of commerce
about Hastings , the present tariff from the
lower Missouri points being the same as
from Omaha to Hastings. Affecting as it
necessarily wilt local points along the line of
the Missouri Pacific , skirting the northern
border of Kansas , it will necessitate a
change of tariff on the part of the Grand
Island railroad on the south. These changes
will demoralize Kansas roads touching at
common points so that the whole state of
Kansas will hnvo to be readjusted along the
lines laid down In Nebraska's law , and this
means Interminable work for the "Sun-
llower" systems. At best the situation is
nnythlng but reassuring , and should Lincoln
be made the basing point instpad of Omaha
merchants hero may lese a portion of their
Platte valley trade.

SPECIAL TAX STAMPS.
Applications fur Thorn for the Fiscal Year
Should Hi ) Sent In ,
Pcoplo who wish to use special tax stamps
during the coming fiscal year should send in
their applications at onco. Collector Potcrs
says that so many business mon who need
apodal stamps for selling liquor or for the
privilege of operating breweries postpone the
matter of sending in their application until
the last miuuto 'hat It is utterly impossible
for the afllco force to keep their heads ubovo
water for weeks after the first of the
fiscal year. If some of these who know they
will need tlicso stamps would take time by
the forelock and send in their applications u
week sooner they would expedite matters
end save the ofllce from a deluge of business
at the opening of the next llsciil year.

LINOOI.K J , Juno 23. [ Special to Tnn BEB. ]
Regret has been expressed that the late
legislature , whllo It was in the investigating1
business , did not look Into the manner in
which state funds had boon expended In the
erection and maintenance of the State In
dustrial School for Girls nt Geneva , and
rumors of extravagance tn the expenditure
of the funds for that Institution have been
numerous.
,
In looking over the records in the auditor's
ofllce the llrst thing that attracted attention
was the largo sums that had been paid out
for plans and supervision in the construc
tion of the building. The contract for the
building was lot In May , 1891 , and the con
tract prlco was $27,1)75. ) A commission of
IJf per cent on that sum , amounting to
WJ.GS was paid George E. McDonald Jurio
1 , 1891 , for plans and a llko amount for like
service was also paid to J. H. Silvornall. In
addition to this McDonald received $000.35
additional for plans and supervision , whllo
John Stcon was paid 9-172.03 for services as
superintendent of construction , and on Feb
ruary 1 , lb'J3 , voucher No. 70,571 for JT.Sl
was paid J. D. McKelvey for "services as
superintendent of the erection of ucw build
ings , Girls Industrial school , Geneva , from
September 20,1601 , to February 1,1B9-J. "
This makes a total of $ S.3lly.OO ) expended
for plans end supervision , or nearly 10 per
cent of the contract price of the structure ,
whllo the rules of the American Architects
association only exact from n to 5 per cent
for plans and supervision. Just why the
state of Nebraska should bo called upon to
pay double price for that class of service Is
question which only the Board ot Public
Lands and Dulldltigs can answer.
The management of the Geneva Institu
tion appears to bo a family affair , as J. D.
MeKolvoy Is superintendent at a salary of
? a,000 per year , whllq his wife , Luella J. Ale-
Kelvcy Is matron nt a salary of ? GOO a year ,
Mrs. C. Dlckson Is employed as assistant
matron nt a compensation of $ ! 3 X\y \ per
month , making an expense of $33.MX ! per
month for matron service , In that Institution
with Jlfty to sovcnty-nvo Inmates , while in
the various insane hospitals of the state ,
with 200 inmates , no assistant matron is em
ployed , and the state pays only $50 uer month
for matron service. ' ' "
The records of this institution in the aud-
itor's oflloo show thatvery loose business
methods have prevailed In the disbursement
of the funds appropriated for its erection
ana maintenance. Voucher No. 71,270 , paid
April , 1893 , to J. D. MoKolvoy , reads ns
follows : "To Industrial school , Geneva ,
maintenance , etc. . $130.10. " No itemized
statement showing for what this sum was
expended Is attached to cither the original
voucher In the auditor's lOfllco or the dupli
cate on fllo In the ofllco of the secretary of
stato. Tho'vouchor was made out-upon the
forms usodtin the Capitol , building and not
upon the blanks used by the Genera Institu
tion , nnd no record is' ' visible to show for
what that , sum of money was expended or
for what the stnto became indebted to
Superintendent McKelvey to that extent.
Numerous vouchers also appear running to
"J. D. McKelvoy ; agent , " In amounts rang
ing from j(25 ( to 5325 , composed of _ various
items purporting to have been furnished the
institution by numerous firms and Individu
als. Whllo those Items may have been nil
right and the vouchers just claims ngalnst
the state , yet the manner of payment was
irregular and entirely contrary to law , and
o ened an nvenuo for various peculations
from the funds appropriated for the main
tenance of the institution should any ono desire -
sire to take advantage of the opportunity
offered.
Some duplications of small amounts hnvo
occurred by reason of this method of paying
the small items by the parties filing vouchers
for their claims direct and then the same
Items being Included in the accounts of "J.
D. McKelvoy , agent. " aud both claims being
allowed by the board , One of these duplica
tions occurs In the vouchers allowed at the
same mooting for an amount of $37.
Since Auditor Macro's advent things are
different and asuadon halt has boon called
In the method of paying out the state funds.
Every voucher for the payment of money Is
given close personal scrutiny , and no warrant
Is drawn Upon the treasury on any voucher
that does not strictly comply with the law In
all particulars. Every voucher must now bo
drawn upon the proper fund and the cross-
firing of appropriations that has been In
vogue among the state institutions for years
has boon stopped. There is no moro bunch-
liifr of vouchers nnd drawing ono warrant for
tlio whole amount In the name of the super-
utcndent simply to save work , but a warrant
s drawn direct to the party rendering the
service , oven to the Individual employes on
the pay rolls of the various state institu
tions , _

HORSESHOERS BOYCOTTED.
Oriraiilxca Labor ot Omaha Orders a right
on Two Shops.
A boycott Is on wlththo different trades
unions and the nonuQlocjEorsoshoolng shops.
Trouble has existed ton some tlrno between
Horscshoors union No , 111-and the bosses , and
the members of the Union have sought to
compel the latter to Sicycdo to their ( lo
rn and that eight $ ours , should con
stitute a day's labor in'i tha shops. Ever
since the enactment nmlljio taking effect of
the eight hour state InV , It has been the
source threatening danger to the good feelings -
ings which formerly prevailed between the
owners of shops and tlW V01'ltllicn In this
Alxmt two months agoijfilcm No. 10 made
extraordinary efforts 'to have at least
all the down town shbuw agree to the
eight hours , but falllng'jp . .this they sought
thoald of nil organized labor Friday nightand
two resolutions beariuKujjoii this question
were introduced at Friday night's mooting of
Central Labor union. ' .
The first resolution was ( n substance that
A boycott should bo Inaugurated by all
organized bodies represented at that moot
ing , and the sentiment was that the screws
should bo put on as tight ns possible.
In the second resolution District as '
sembly 128 , Knights of Labor , w > is asitod for
assistance to make the action more effective.
Both were , adopted.
As It now stands , the efforts of organized
labor will bo directed especially against ,
Andrew Murphy , the owner of throe shops ,
on the corner of Fourteenth and Howard ,
who employs cloven men altogether , nnd
also against J. P. Mooro. 1310 Howard street.
In speaking about the matter and the con ,
templated boycott about two.woeks ago , n
Jaboring man suid that Mr. Murphy would
probably bo the hardest man to deal with > i
us ho hud the patroimpo of several express
companies and that It might bo difllcult for
labor to arrange with them. When Mr. Mur
phy was seen yesterday morning he opined
that the uulon bad better not try to ruin
employers ; times were hard enough now uud

would como around to his place of busi

to got something to oat. "My men
work ton hours a day and got 25 cents moro
than the Union men. They are nil compe

of the union claimed that his men worked
twelve and tourtoon hours a day they were
anything but common prevaricators. Ho
could not consistently enter into un eight-
hour contract because of work that
had to bo done early In the morn

for Instance , the Pacific and
Merchants Express companies horseshoe ng.
But If all shops in the city , some of which
performed work late at night and all day
Sundays , would sign , ho was not averse to
it. Under oxistlng circumstances ho should
not lay hlmsolf llablo to the loss of business
of the express companies which paid him
from $700 to ? 000 per month.
J. P. Moore was also asked regarding the
proposed bovcott against his place , and ho
expressed hlmsolf in forcible language.
"Is It Just or reasonable , " ho said , "to ask
me to refuse all work that comes in after
certain hours these hard times ? Why should
I enter into n certain contract when of the

Assistance 1'romliod Elevator lloyj 1'Iaui
| for 1'utnro Meeting * .
More than ono body asked assistance from
Central Labor union Thursday night after
the mooting was called to order. The elevator -
vator conductors dcsiro to have an ordinance
passed by the city council prohibiting the
employment of minors to run elevators in
this city , and for this purpose asked the
central body to add tliolr force that they
might receive recognition In the matter from
the municipal body. This was agreed to
and the city fathers will hear of thu matter
In duo tlmo.
In meetings hereafter one-half hour of the
tlmo will bo devoted to the discussion of sub
jects on political economy and each speaker al
lowed five minutes time to express Ills ideas.
No talk from a partisan standpoint , how
ever , will bo allowed.
When It came to the election of thrco dole-
pates to the state labor congress a resolu
tion was introduced that two of the mem
bers to represent the Central union , should
belong to trades unions and ono to the
Knights of Labor. Accordingly , Mr. J. B.
Schupp and D. Clem Doavcr from the trades
unions and Alfred t'awkner from the
Knights were declared the choice.
All delegates to the congress will have the
advantage of getting cheap rates to Lincoln ,
as the fourth of July excursion rates go into
effect early enough for the members to util
