Court I'oitponrs Action ,
LINCOLN , Juno 29. [ bpcclal to THE
UKE. ] The supreme court Is Just now the
object of solicitous attention on the part of
n number of Omaha bankers and prominent
business men In relation to the appointment
of a receiver for the defunct McC.iguo
Saving * hank of that city. This appoint
ment was to have been made yesterday
afternoon nnd , In fact , would hava been
made but for a vigorous fight made by some
of the candidates for the place , asstslcd by
tholr respective backers. As nearly as can
bo ascertained the bank Itself deilres
the appointment of Henry tWyman ,
cashlerof the ombarnssod American National
bank , whllo the opposition Is arrayed
for Councilman W. A. Sauuders , who Is
backed by the Merchants National bank.
Saundcrs1 light Is being managed by Luther
Drake , vlco president of the Morchanls Na
tional , which fact gives rlso to the belief
that the whole nmttor Is simply a ease of
bank rivalry. The most reliable Information
obtainable Is to the effect that thcro was the
liveliest kind of a scrimmage before the
court , which waxed so Interesting that it
was doomed best to allow the matter logo over
for n couple of days. It Is now expected nnd
understood that the appointment will bo
made tomorrow. Mr. Wymnn's candidacy
Is backed not only by the stockholders of the
collapsed bank but by n large number ot de
positors. It Is understood that Iho bank
officials are securing * the signatures of the
depositors to n polltlon of this kind and that
before the appointment Is made they will bo
able to maico a practically unanimous show

"It Is the height of absurdity , " said ho ,
to think of Hitting 100 men go , because tbo
opartmonts are now conducted with just ns

"Of course the company Is compelled to

J. A. Wentz , who becomes commercial
agent of the Ilock Island with headquarters
at Chicago , May 1 , succeoJlng J. II. Loner ,
began his railway career in 1850 when ho
was redman with a surveying iiartyontbo
proposed line of the old Texas & Now Orleans
railway in Texas. Afterward ho went north
nnd on his return stopped at Cairo and en
listed with ! iOO other railway men in the
military railway service. They went to
Pittsburg landing and did nothing for eight
months , when thov were transferred to
Memphis , whore the Mobile & Ohio ,
Mississippi Central and Memphis & Charles
ton railways were seized and operated by
the government. Mr. Wcntz was made
train dispatcher. Afterward ho went with
his company to Vicksburg nnd took posses
sion of the Yioksburg-Mprldlan railway
and operated it in the interest of the
union army. After the war Mr , Wontz came
to Omaha and managed the Pacific Transfer
company for George Fr.iucis Train and
Thomas C. Durant. Afterward ho was in
the freight service of the North Missouri
railway , now the abash , at Ottumwa , and
also general agent of the Chicago , Burling

years. Finally Mr , Wentz became general

General Superintendent C. C. Hughes of
the Sioux City & Pacific road was in Sioux
Oity recently , and in conversation with
n railroad man expressed his opinion
that ns a result of the operation of
the Ne.wbcrry law , which will go Into effect
in the state of Nebraska In a short time. Iho
roads In that state will considerably rciluco
their train service , nnd thereby bo com
pelled to discommode the traveling
public to n considerable degree.
On some of the lines it has
been decided to tuko off passenger trains
and substitute accommodation trains for
them. This course the roads regard as
forced upon them by the law , which will re
sult In considerable reduction of tholr rev
enue. Mr. Hughes said thut there would bo i
10 reductions in the service on the Klkhorn
road at present.

the Transcontinental association nro not get

led upon.
"I was one of these sent out , and I person-
illy traversed the entire route from Galvos-
ion to HIsnmrck. I did not , In Texas nor
through the Indian Territory , travel in
carriage mid examine the topography of the
country , but I did oxnmhio the maps of
lexao and of the Indian Territory those old
nwpi which were Issued some years
igo , giving the geological formations
and the spades of timber therein , uud
concluded that the Brnr.os river
auxns , along which the Santa
L'o railway runs , is not superior
In any respect to the Trinity river lands ,
which have noiroad , nnil I concluded that tlio
Santa Fo route ihcough Oklahoma was not
i bit superior nor the Uock Island route
to ono cast of those linos. I found both these
railways had missed the boumllim wealth
of coal , ana possibly oil , In the Indian Terri
tory further east , and on n direct line to the
port of Cialrcston ,
"From the north line of the Indian Tprrl-
tory 1 traveled In a carriage ovct all the
ground on a direct line to Bismarck , and
crossed the Sioux reservation In South D.v
tola from Keya IMhn county on a , straight
line to Pierre , traveling Ml ) tmilcs without a
track or road of any kind ; crossed "the Mis
souri river at Pierre , and from thcro direct
to Bismarck.
I'onplo Arc All
"I took pains to learn the feeling of the
lieoplo and I held mooting * attho county
scats of each county on the line and caused
la committees to bo In each appointed for
ne in case that any action might bo de
termined upon. At every town I found
most enthusiastic expressions , favorable to
the project nnd readiness to enter Into local
corporations by their ablest men. In the la-
kotas no bonds nor public aid eoula bo given ,
but at Pierre I was promised a guaranteed
subscription for a bonus or donation of $ HOO-
000 and the right of way guaranteed across
the : state. At Bismarck 1 was promised a
guaranteed subscription for a bonus of $73-
000 and the right of way , and In addi
tlnl several sections of" the host lig
nite coal lands in the state. I found
that in South Dakota there are
87,000 square miles of lignite coal
and ) the route of the proposed road ran
through it. I found nn abundance of bi
tuminous coal in the Indian Territory.
Alter my canvass I returned nnd made a re
port of what I found , but that year was un-
favorablfl-to any further action. Sinpothcn
nothing could bo done on the project for
various ' reasons.-
