The attorneys for the city and Iho plain tiff in the Krucgcr damage suit argued a motion for a now trial in the district court yesterday morning. The plaintiff's ' attor neys claimed that enough had been brought forth in the way of evidence to show that the verdict of the Jnry was not strictly regular , while the city atornoy contended that , enough evidence had been put forth to show that the maker of the famous Gorman affidavit had lied in some particulars , and that , therefore , his nflldiivli was subject to disbelief in every other particular. Judge Deemor took thi * subject under advisement. Ofllccr Kemp ran across four suspicious looking characters last evening at the corner of Alain street nnd Broadway and arrested them. Ono of them , who afterwards said his name was John Hammercott , showed light and Kemp hail to use his cano with a good deal of vigor to got him under control. Ho claimed to bo a soldier from Fort Ixgan come down to see the elephant. In the tussle that look place between him and the oftlcer they rolled over and over in the street and both were somewhat dis figured. Number two of the group was caught and hold by Ira F.

It was run by horse power , with an overhead gear. Trade was unusually heavy on the Fourth. On that day the merry-go-round was heav ily loaded and was in full blast when a chain broke , allowing one of the heavy pieces of machinery to fall out to one side and strike a little boy named Kllpack in the head.

"It's just a year ago tonight that I was in Omaha the last time , " remarked Mr. S. II. Maxlicld , a Chicago traveling man , at the Murray last evening , as ho shifted his chair just another hitch , so that any stray zephyr that happened along would bo sure to strike his whiskers. "I stopped over on my way to Arizona in response to n telegram , and loft the next nigh1 , for Kansas City. "Say , " he continued , as ho mopped sev eral pints of perspiration from his brow , "that was one of the hottest , driest trips j over made. This weather strongly reminds me of it. "If Colonel Dante , formerly of Italy , but at present residing in parts as yet unknown , will address , with or without stamp , ' yours truly , ho will hour of something to his ad vantage. Or , if Vcritas or Taxpayer or some other equally well informed person will furnish mo with the colonel's ' address , it will oblige mo very much. I have been told that the colonel wrote several cantos of matter about a trip ho and a friend of his , Mr. Virgil , took through some arid regions of which , I believe , Mr. Virgil was a part owner , or which , at least , he had designs upon 1n the way of an irrigation scheme or something of that kind. It is understood that the colonel's work sold quite well , nearly all the second edition having-been disposed of without assistance from the author's relatives. 1 , am always real plad to see struggling genius get ahead oven nt a royalty of only 10 per cent after the second edition is sold , nnd for this reason I wish to ascertain the colonel's whereabouts , that I may bo able to put him onto a good thing in the way of material for another book. ' I have hoard a number of persons re mark that this same Kansas was thocountry Dante wrote about , but I think they sneak unadvisedly and more from an arid point of view than otherwise , for I have observed tnat a great many people in Kansas are troubled with aridity , which seems quite a prevalent ailment down there. "It might bo as well for the colonel to bring a few canteens with him , if my letter brings him out hero , as they are hard to get in Kansas. It is thought by some folks that they can bo obtained by stealth nnd telegraphy , but It will bo found that the man who brings a bottle to a train in response to a telegram will have to run the gauntlet of enough thirsty persons to popu late n wharf tenement , each and every one of whom will perjure himself and swear that ho , and ho only , sent that telegram. So it is far bettor to conciliate , subalilbo , nnd other wise square-yourself with the porter of the Pullman , who can generally toll you where to find the desired liquor. Hut all the sumo , I should advlsu Dante , if ho goes that way , to bring along quite a plethora of canteens nnd things.11 "Say , " Interrupted a perspiring listener ' ener , "I thought you started to tell us about the hot trip you took and hero you are talking about poor old , dried up Dante and the liquor problem in Kansas. " "That's so , " assented Mr. Maxfleld , "but Just lot mo talk awhile , won't you ? You all seem to be liizy enough to bo good listeners , "In speaking of Kansas as an arid region I did not wish to imply that the whole state Is arid. Only the western part of it in that way. Its citizens , however , are , almott without exception , troubled with aridity , and thcro la hardly a man in the state who docs not carry three or four aliases nnd a couple of alibis to aid him In obtaining nicdlcino in case ho should huvo a sudden attack of this aridity , which some times happens. " .Speaking of arid regions , however , it is not until the train gets Into western Kansas and southeastern Colorado that the country itself Is found to bo noticeably arid , Then the wayfarer is apt to notice it quite in- tcntly , especially by daylight. The sand , which seems to bo n feature of the country , 1ms a sunburnt and chapped appearance , nnd thu prairie dogs and cacti look haggard and dissipated. The cattle skeletons' , which seem to bu a uur- emiiiil crop down thorn , look bright and contented , however , which Is , I suppose , a good thing. It's a good deal like that region described In TUB BBK the other day , "At one place on the road , out in western Kansas , I went iuto a uay coach and struck up an acquaintance with a man who wus In the farm land and ranch selling business out then' ' . Ho looked prosperous , and scorned inclined to conversation and embon point , nnd I , with ono dreamy , languorous cyu on the sad , sad landscape , wondered how this could bo thus. Finally , with blushing curiosity uud a sweeping , piercing glance at the sunburnt plains , I iiMteil : " -llui what do you ruUo hero ? What do you live on I1 "Tho real estate man looked grieved to think that such ignorance should exist in the hut of ono who hud told him ho was indigenous to the west. He shifted in hit * seat impressively and tiling his uold gruj1 eve upon me he answered compassionately ; 'Stranger , wo raise h 1 , and llvo on the credulity of fool investors frpm the states.1 "After all , now I como to think of it , I had u pretty good time on tout trip. You kuow thcro are always ono or more pairs ol turtle doves on Jn/JVcrland Mccpor. Well , we had a pair. "The groom was n h.in-lsomo young chap who practiced lawTnTan eastern city lind the : irido WM an Iowa girl who was homely enoutrh to bp I'lthcraistresslngly eood or dis gustingly rich.

J'heso last two .WOamo ncqunlntcd , with norc or less facility nnd nb.incion ( and , in cidentally , with OOTh other ) and speo.llly got on the hlnh road to a desperate Illrta- lion , inasmuch as she of the bangs had no chaperon , and. evidently , could got along very well withoutorte. "Well , this state of affairs led to n serious complication. It was Sunday nlpht , and the calmsilvery moon was Just spreading herself , md wo all got out on the ro'tr platform of the Pullman and sain ? hymns with much gusto and scant religious lervor. llvsidcs : hose I Just spoke of there was n British tourist , going west to visit some friends ana see the hlnhstcd country,1 nnd two or three others who don't count for the purposes of Lhls story. Well , ns T said , wo sang. That is , most of us did. I saw , at the 3nd of the second stanza of the llrst hymn , that there was no ono [ ircsent who could appreciate musical talent , md I do not care to waste my sweetness on the desert air. So 1 dlenltlcdly listened and wondered if Mj ron Whitney would not have felt lust so. "Presently the groom , who wnu sitting just inside the door on a camp chair , rose and went into the car for a shawl with which to drape his 'wlfoy's' shoulders ; presently thereafter the college youasr man came and took the groom's chair , and though somewhat taken aback at puch forwardness when the gentle bride laid her head on his bosom , proceeded to throw his arm about her and squee/.o just like ho hud a right to. thinking , of course , that it was the lluffy-lialrcd lllrteo who was sitting outside , just out of the range of his vision : and presently , just as the c. y. m. had given the g. b. a squeeze that made her eyes stick out , back enmo the groom and lit right into the trouble , just ns 1 had expected ho would. The Urlton and 1 had watched the comedy from the rise of the curtain the Hrlton iu dumb staring horror and I well , nn over land Journey Is dull nt Its best , and I knew the c. y. in. enjoyed it hugely until ho discovered his mistake. I think it hurt , him more to think ho had been hunting that unprepossessing bride than It did to have the groom Jump on him , for he removed his luggage Into the other sleeper and wo saw him no mure. "And the Huffy haired maiden smiled nnd smiled and the stony eyed Urlton and I went into the smoking room ami did likewise. " "Well , but what has all this talk to do with Irrigation in Nebraska ? " asked one man in an arid tone of voice. "Lot's adjourn and see , " said Mr. Max- Held. "I'm kind of dry myself. " The adjournment was taken. HIBIOKIC CANNON. The Curious Adventured of 1'onr Cutlforiilu Omit. At the corner of Main nnd Commer cial streets , Los Anglos , planted muzzle downward , are two curious cannon , also two old smooth-bores on guard at the court house door * . Those old pieces hnvo figured in every Mexican revolution iu California and in the American conquest , says the Los Angeles Herald. In 1818 Bouchard , the pirate , visited the coast. The coftntry was practically unprotected and the piratical craft vis ited Monterey , hurncd the custom house , sacked the village , and then came back to the Relugio ranch , above Santa Barbara , doing considerable damage there. The vesPol next landed at San Juan Capistraiio- after plundering the mission sniloiVawny and was never heard of again in California. The Spanish government then sent out some cannon to protect the coast , and these four cannon are some of those sent. From the timoof Mexico's independence , 1821 , to that of 'the American occupa tion in 1840 , there were perhaps a dozen revolutions nnd counter-revolutions be tween the iiortenos and aurenos , and the capital of the territory was removed either north or south , owing to the resi dence of the victorious "pronouncing" governor. But the most noted battle in which these cannon figured was on the bloodless plains of Cahuenga , a beautiful little spot a few miles nortli , of Los An geles. There was n revolution on foot. The south had pronounced against Governor Miohcltorona and his battalion of soldiers. It was on the memorable 10th day of February , 1815. that the sans culottes of Castro and Pico confronted each other in battle array , each army about 4(10 ( strong. Pico had the formid able four cannon and the valiant Castro had thrco equally as dangerous. The guns were mounted on carrotas and drawn upon the gory field by oxen. About 100 shots were exchanged , Castro's gunners frequently using rocks and pebbles , evidently being short of ammunition. It seems that each con tending side understood the nrt of war , and as the guns were drawn up in posi tion would retreat to n safe distance. The merry war occupied two days , and when the smoke of battle cleared away and the roll was called it was found that a mule had been killed. Castro duly enrolled this in his report of the 'casu alties. " When the forces under JDominodoro Stockton captured Los Angeles these historic cannon passed into the hands of the gringos. Two of the guns were planted on Fort Hill , overlooking the city , and the other two were planted in front o the commodore's headquarters , which 'was about a half block dit-tiiit from the corner where these same two cannon are now planted , but wrong end UP. Believing that the conquest was com plete , Commodore Stockton took a trip down to San Diego , leaving Lieutenant Gilluspio in charge with fifty mon. His instructions were to preserve order , butte to bo lenient. Ho soon filled the guard house with suspected persons. Finally a "revolutionist" named Vurela had been lined for disorderly conduct ; ho refused to pay and defied Gillesple's authority. Ho organized a band of about twenty mon , and ono nigjit they attacked the adobe headquarters of Gillcspio by dis charging their jjjjnsketa in the air nnd boating drums , evidently expecting to frighten the Amyijicans. They received a volley ; ono man was wounded in the foot , nnd they guvo up the siege. Some of the political londorH , led by Flores , agreed on the "rovolt , " and they "pronounced" against the American oc cupation. Los lAngoloa was captured and with it only two of the cannon , or , rather , the Moxiciin forces only got two , and those were usdluss. Under the terms of surrender Gillesplo and force were inarched out df.tho city in military order , Hag ilying Jrum boating and with their arms , fnclhding cannon. Gillcspio had already spiked the two cannon in the fbr't on Fort Hill , nnd there ho loft them , each half filled with ball. The other two ho carried to San Pedro , whore , before embarking on the steamship , ho was to deliver them into the possession of the military forces at that point. But ho spiked the guns and rolled thorn into the bay. About twenty- five years'afterward some enterprising Americans dug them out of the bay and placed them on duty , where they have binco remained , without relief. I'roL'iiutlimiirjr.

Secretary Baer remarked that the com mittee on united society had the matter under consideration and would make a state ment to the convention. An Associated press reporter learned there Is a division among the trustees on this sub ject , hence the delay In reaching nn ulti matum. The "Four Essentials" of the Christian Endeavor society was the basis for the meeting of the evening session in drill hall. Several papers were read. Attack on C'ltli : > llclnin , Rev. Sumnntra Ivnishulvlratnrtho of Bom bay was the principal speaker in the tent this morning. Ho made the llrst antl-Homan utterance yet heard nt any of the nfcotlngs. Said ho : "There is a remarkable corre spondence between Ho in is li workshlp and Hindoo worship. Homanism is But a new label on the old bottles of paganism , containing the deadly poison of idolatry. " Thcro was some applause. I i Presse , a French newspaper , comes out this evening with an article which declares that his speech was a deliberate insult to the French people , and that they regard it as such. In the tent thcro were several thousand delegates tonight to listen to addresses from Kov. Bishop Arnott of Vlcksburg , Miss. , colored , and Hov. D. J. Burrcll of Now York City.- At the opening of the evening session In the drill hall Secretary Baor read a tele- pram sent by President Clark by direction of the trustees , to Hon. T. W. Palmer , president of the World's National Columbian commission , endorsing the stand taken by him on Sunday closing and express ing the hope that his views may prevail and that the gates of the fair may henceforth bo closed on Sunday. A deafening cheer lillod the hall and there was an unanimous upris ing of the audience to signify their assent. Several addresses were heard. Ass lull ( Ml liy Tuiili4. | Thcro were a number of delegates crowded out of the tent , and they hold an open air meeting near by. A crowd of toughs that surrounded the square Hung some stones at the speakers , and several Endcnvorcrs were struckabout the head and shoulders by the missiles. The police made short work of the roughs. This hostile demonstration is attributed to Kiramrtho's attack upon Catholicism. CHICAGO'S GENTLER SIDE. The A r oiid I an Frretlnm 01 Intnrcourjo llctwuuu tlio Suxcit After Dinner. I have seen a thing in Chicago that I never heard of anywhere else , and that looked a little awkward at first for a Tow moments. I refer to a peculiar freedom of intercourse between the sexes after a dinner or on a rout , says Julian Ralph in Harper's. In one ease the men hud withdrawn to the library and a noted entertainer was in the full glory of his career reciting u poem or giving n diulect imitation of a conversation he had overheard on a street car. The wife of the host trespassed , with a little show of timidity , to say that the little girls , her daughters , were about to go to bed and wanted the noted enter tainer ' 'make face" for thorn to a , ap parently for them to dream upon. ' 'Why , como in , " said the host. "O , may we , " said the wife , very art lessly , and in came all the ladies of the party , who , it seems , had gathered in the hallway. The room was blue with smoke , but all the ladies ' 'loved smoke , " and HO the evening wcyo on gaily. The next occasion was in a mansion on the lakeside. An artist and a poet , well well known in both hemispheres , wore the special guests. When the coll'eo was brought on tlioro was no movement on the part of the women toward leaving the table. No suggestion was made that they should do BO ; there was no apology offered for their not doing HO ; the sub ject was not mentioned. Tlioro were glasses of "green mint" for all , and ci gars for the men. Then the stories llowcd and the laughter bubbled. The queer tiling wus that tlioro was no ap- Special Not ] 023.

Description of Iho Saurcil Tulnco hi Uu - Old Cniltnl. | The very heart of Moscow nnd , indeed. of all Hussiu , is the world renowned Kremlin , the nation's buercd palaco. Many years ago the i'/ur resided within its wooden walls , olosoly surrounded by his relatives nnd nobles. The wooden fortilU'atlons proved Inadequate to re- Hist the furious onslaughts of the savage Tartars , and 500 years ago they were re placed by stone ones , and now , too , the imperial family has abandoned Moscow and spends most of its time in St. Petersburg. Hut this Is still the holy city , and to the Kremlin churches must all the c/.ars oomo to bo crowned , writes u correspondent. The grand -coronation procession must first outer the Church of the Redeemer to olTor prayers , then go to St. Michael's , and finally in the Cathedral of the Assumption , the most sacred edifice in all Russia , the c/.ar places the crown upon his own head , for no one elbe is held worthy to perform' such a duty. This palatial citadel , the Kremlin , when seen from a distance , is a most brilliant and dazzling sight ; walls.roofs , spires and cupolas shine with masses of red , green , white , gold and silver , un tarnished by time , for all the colors are renewed ns fast as they fade. Just out side the walls is a line group of bronze statuary representing u peasant appeal ing to u RussrUn general to save the Kremlin from the French ; it is strik ingly suggestive , as the man points cngerlj upward to the Kremlin's towers , only a short distance away. The most holy of the live entrances to the fort is that known as the "Redeemer Gate. " Over this is a picture of Christ , so sacred that no ouo can puts beneath it with covered head ; oven the czar him self conforms to this custom.

Ills concert com pany was about to begin nn evening on- tortninmont ut n Unptlst church , nnd Mr. Muslu , arrayed in faultless evening dress , thought ho would view the nudi- once without Inslng HCQII. To accomplish his purpose ho stopped behind u curtain which hung nt the unck of the platform. There wns n splnsh , nnd the violinist1 found himself in three foot of water. Ho emerged n very wet and angry mnn. Mr. Muslu had inadvertently stepped into the baptismal font. It wns after 8 o'clock nnd the concert had begun. A young mnn cnmo to the violinist's res cue , however , nud suid ho would provide Mr. Musiti with n dry outllt.
