FIGHTING MAXIMUM RATES
Another Twist Taken in the Complications
Against the Measure ,
RESULT OF LANCASTER LITIGATION
Reply ot the Mlninurl Pnclflo to the Peti
tion ot the Lincoln Merchants on
the Subject Prefer Federal
Jurisdiction.
- , I LINCOLN , Aug. 10. [ Special toTnB DEB. ]
Another lwUt was Ukon In the complications
which surround the efforts of the sxalo
fiuthoritlos to put the now maximum rate
Jaw into affect by the attorneys of the Mis
souri Pacltlc who wontlnto the dlstrlctcourt
with a petition for the removal of the case
instituted by the wholesale merchants of
this city to the United States courts. Some
woks slnco , nnd before the Nowbcrry bill
was hunk' up by the injunction taken out by
the stockholders , the wholesale merchants
of this city became nlarmod at the possibility
of the railroads aDollshlng the interstate
rates whtcli have enabled thoCapltal City
men to compete with Omaha and other
Missouri river points. They accordingly
secured the services of Hon. O , M. Lambort-
on and applied to the district court of Lan
caster county for nn Injunction to prevent
the railroad ! ) from abolishing the Interstate
rates.
Today the attorneys of the Missouri Pa
cific , ono of the railroads Involved In the In
junction proceedings , filed with the clerk of
Iho district court a demurrer to the original
petition on the grounds that It does not state
facts sufficient to constltuto a cause of no
tion ; that the causes nro Improperly joined
because there Is a defect of the patties plain-
tttff ; that the plaintiff has no legal right to
fcuo and that the district court has no Juris
diction of the subject matter involved. In
this demurrer the Uurhngton Joined ,
AVnnt th Cnso K.inorod.
In addition to the demurrer nnothor peti
tion was Hied by the attorney for the Mis-
eourl Pacific asking that thu entire case
Wight bo removed to the United States cir
cuit court , for the reason that the amount of
money Involved In the controversy exceeds
f2,000 ; that the controversy Is of a civil
haturo arising under the federal constitu
tion in that it Involves the construction of
snnctof congress passed on February 4 ,
1887 , and that It is an attempt to enjoin the
company from putting Into effect or force
certain rates , as n common carrier , known as
interstate rates , which it Is alleged are In
violation of the net of congress approved
f July 2 , 18 0. The petition further alleges
f that the plaintiffs ( meaning the LIu-
r coin wholesale merchants ) base their
rights to the relief prayed for solely
upon the construction of the two acts of
congress referred to and that the contro
versy Involves n construction of said acts.
It Is further asserted that the controversy ,
its between the Missouri Pacltio and the
Burlington , is separable und can bo disposed
of as to the Missouri Pacific without the
presence of a co-defendant. Tho" . petition
was accompanied by a bond for 81,000 with
C. C. Burr of this city as surety for the pay
ment of all costs if It shall bo determined
S that the case Is improperly removed from
.X. . the district to the United States courts.

Senator Manderson stated to THE BBB cor
respondent todav that tomorrow ho would
call upon the supervising architect of the
treasury in reference to materials to bo used
in the Omaha public building. The senator
liad a conference with Mr. O'Kourko re
cently nnd urged upon him the necessity of
visiting Omaha with a view to
learning upon the ground the needs
with respect to materials , but Mr. O'Uourko
stated that ho had so many thlngu to look
after In connection with the Chlcairo build
ing that ho could not visit Omaha at that
timo. Sonatoi ; Mnndorson's Intended visit
to the supervising architect is in connection
with the subject of material for the general
superstructure. The senator says that
granite should bo used in the construotlon of
the building , as he believes It will bo much
more serviceable and handsomer than any
kind of sandstone.
llrynn's Sllv r lllil.
William Jennings Bryan , the Lincoln rep-
rcsoutativnof the FJrs * Nebraska district
addressed the IIOUHU this afternoon on the
proposed repeal of the silver purchasing act
Mr. Bryan was nt his best , oratorlcally
speaking , und was plvou as fair nn audience
as any man who 1ms spoke upon
the free coinage of silver. Ills
volco filled the urcat hall of the
house of representatives nnd there was con
siderable Interest manifested in his pornonal
views upon the subject , as It Is generally
known in Washington that the democrats of
Nebraska nro opposed to the Individual
views of the representative of the First dis
trict , besides there was considerable curios
ity entertained as to what Bryan would gay
in the fuco of the recent message of Presi
dent Cleveland demanding unconditional re
peal und the open opposition of silver by
Hon. J. Sterling Morton. .
Mr. Bryan was very outspoken In favor
of the unlimited coinage of silver , declaring
that und stream would be inoro uniform aud
reliable iu its if it
supply had more than ono
source. Mr. Bryan's flights of oratory were
not frequently Interrupted , member * con-
orally preferring to watch his graceful
pastures and well modulated volco rather
than interrupt him with questions. A fttw
times , however , Mr. Harler of Ohio , who ii
n gold standard democrat , cross-questioned
Air. Bryan oa his knowledge of financial
history.
The representative of the First district
had his speech well committed and it must
bo said to his credit that he delivered it in
good form and made as peed n Impression
as itwas possible for tutu to make with the
subject nt hand. Sonat& Allen Is prevarlnt ?
a speech which ho trill deliver ot an early
data in the sonata IB. advocacy of the free
coinage of silver. "

NBW YORK , Aug. 10. James A. Whitney ,

the Boring son question , said yesterday :
Itwas absurd to claim the result In
nny sense a victory in oven the smallest and
most miserable degree. It was in fact a
most potent defeat. The American right of
dominion in Boring sea and exclusive control
if the seal fisheries within the geograph-
cal limits of the cession from Russia

right there was nothing to arbitrate. "
Air. Whitney severely censured Clovo-

allowing the matter to go to arbitration uud
not standing out boldly for American rights
and honor.

The usual balloon ascension took place ,
and the Bickctts , William and Minnie , in
their line aerial performance , received well
earned applause , but the big feature of the
evening at the beach was the high dive made
by Louvcnmark , the little Swede , who is
the champion high diver of the world. Ho
made n record of eighty feet thrco and
thrco-quartors inches at Kansas City on
Juno 10 , 18'Jl , and at the same plauo on
August 23,1892 , ho beat his own record by
diving eighty-two foot. Last evening a
toivor had boon erected on top of the spring
boaid platform in the lake and Lauvcnmarlr.
climbed on top of this sixty-throe-foot pile
of lumber for his leap for life. He surveyed
the surroundings aud finally retired to the
rjar of the platform , and taking a ruu of some
fifteen feet jumped head foremost in to space ,
while the crowd below looked on with
amazement , watching him every instant
until tie struck the water. After leav
ing the tower his body occupies a
horizontal position uutil within a few foot of
the water. Louvonmark then suddenly
turns and with the palms of both hands to
gether ever his head Jiq enters the water ,
making u perfect dive. It was a thrilling
sight , without the horrifying features usual
to exhibitions of this character. In an in
stant ho appeared again on the surface of
the water , apparently none the worse off. It
was a great fout perfectly performed. Leu-
vonmark makes another dive tonight , and
with all the other attractions , including the
BickottB , the crowd In all probability will bo
fully as largo , if not larger , thau that of last
night.
