wna nsked to tell nbout the capture of Kcott.
Ilosald : "I had received a description of
Scott and WAS looking for him. 1 was re
turning from California with a prisoner and
while stopping nt Hlncon , Is' , M. , I a\r Scott
got out of the sleeping car" and go to the
lunch stand , -wired I the sheriff of Holt
county and asked what reward was offered
for his arrest. The sheriff replied * 1,000. I
would not bother with the case for that
amount and they Increased the row.ird to
2,000. They I bcsan trailing him. I fol
lowed him to Hie City of Moxlcoanil from
there to Juarez in the ntuto of ChlhauhaU ,
traveling 1SOU miles.
Covorril Him with n ( lnti.1
"I arrested him in HIP hotel nt Junrcx
Utter getting the drop on him. Ho was
nrincd , and when 1 covered him ho said :
'Your iiiuno Is Cunningham. Well , jolt
have got the advantairo of me. '
"I wciit before the Jofc1 politico and filed u
complaint against the prisoner and ho held
rk-ott for me. Krott employed five attor
neys In got a release , but President Diaz
Btid the governor of Chihauliau assisted me ,
und on Augustus the Jefo polltico'of .laurez
received tin order from the governor of that
state luring the prisoner over to inn.
"I received valuable assistance from
Sheriff Simmons of Kt Paso , Tex. , In getting
Scott back to Nebraska , and 1 want to say
right hero that the telof.iMm irom Kl Paso
Hinting that ho was afraid that I was going
to beat him out of his shuro of the reward Is
not true.
"Wo pro working together In this and
other eases. On our way to O'Neill Wo
stol > i > cd In Kansas City and escaped the reporters -
porters and a habeas corpus. This Is the
first tlmo 1 have been interviewed. Wo
kept Scott in a sleeping car and lockud the
car when wo eatno through Omaha to avoid
nny papers wlilish might bo in the hands of
ofllcers waiting for us.
'Wticn wo got to O'Neill the people at the
depot cheered for me and throw up their
hats as an expression of their approval of
my bringing Koott back. I wa well treated
while there and-the story that I was afraid
of any personal harm is a fake. If those
those people think I don't go prepared , look
hero. "

Cunningham exhibited a pair ot big puns
attached to u bole under his coat. . His
deputy wns equally well armed.
Tlio rcw\rd ; \ for .Scott's arrest Is in the ,
First National banlc , but before I could get
it some of Scott's friends enjoined the bunk
from pay In u it to mo. As the reward and
my expenses were guaranteed and thu bank
Is Habit ) I am not worried about not gcttlnq
my money. My expenses amount to $1,700.
Scott spent $000 to got frco , but I had the
Mexican.
"Wliile in tlio City of Mexico Scott gave
5,30,000 to a broker for safe keeping. Since
getting the cash the latter has skipped
the country. We have a clew to the broker
and I expect to arrest him on my return and
secure the monov for Holt county , But you
must say nothing about this , as it will bo a ,
give away.
Soolt W.n TrarollncMoi.e. .
"When I arrested Scott ho was traveling
alone. Ho was very nervous until wo
reached Nebraska and he met J. II. Uttly.
1 was luck to capture him and got him safely
I back hero , I think.
i "Tonight a friend came to me and told mu
that Scott had many frieuds in Omaha who
might cause us trouble. W-'ll , wo are law-
abiding citizens , hut if they Jump on U.H there
will bo some hot work , fer wo are prepared
to protect ourselves at any time.Vo were
advised to leave hero this afternoon , out I
am not/ going until 10:30 : tonight.
"U'hllo ' at O'Neill I learned that Scott's
shortage was from SW.UUO to J10I.OOO. Ho
forfeited $20,000 bonds. Akin was arrested
b'y myself ami Sheriff Simmons on n warrant
sent us by County Attorney Murphy of Holt

Nnw VOHK , Oct. 10. The now Ixiwaprlt
that takes the pluco of the one that w.ts
sprung in the Vlgllnnt's rauo Monday against
the Valkyrie for the America's cup was In
position this afternoon and the third race of
the match will bo sailed tomorrow. The
Valkyrie never turned a rope In her work
of Monday , so , of course , she will bo all
right.
I ord Dunravon , Designer \Vatson , Cap
tain Craiiflohl nnd Sallmakcr Unboy are all
.praying for a ho.ivy wind. They claim , and
with truth , that the Vlgilaht's superiority
in half a gale has not yut been
proven In a r.teu between the boats and
they want a chance lu that sort of vrcalhcr
before they admit that tlio American model
is better than that of the Hug'.ish. No just
comparison can bo made between what the
Valkyrie dlu in KnglUh waters on. a hard
blow and what thu American boat has done
In hcr own waters.
The only way to compare the boats Is at a
time when they are racing tog-ether over
the saino waters , with the same winds , and
above the same tides and currents. The in-
nlcatlons tonight nro that tbere will bo
nbout the same strength of wind tomorrow
us prevailed on Monday , but from a north
westerly direction. If the wind is from the
northwest the yachts will start on a run to
leeward the tlrst llftccu miles and beat the
last half homo.
niinriivun MakrH u Kick.
Lord Dunr.iven bore the defeat of his boat
like a true sportsman. There was not a shade
of annoyance in his manner as ho greutcd a
reporter at the Hotel Waldorf aud frankly
discussed the incidents of the day. "As the
result of the race 1 am satlsllcd that the
Vigilant is thu faster boat a : the weight of
wind" which prevailed. In heavier or
lighter weather the Valkyrie might malco a
much better showing. The unfortunate
part of the day was the Interfering done in
nocently enough by excursion steamers.
Now. while 1 honestly believe that thu Vig
ilant would have beaten mo under the most
favorable conditions for a good race , never
theless , but for those excursion steamers
she certainly would not have Uniahed more
than live minutes ahead at most. It seems
too bad , after coming so far for a fair nice ,
to encounter this serious annoyance.
' What I wish is a fair test of merit with
the American boat , which cannot bo secured
while racing in the midst of a licet of
steamers. It will be hard for the ptiolic to
estimate the retarding inllucnco of their
wash. Yachtsmen , however , do know how
ham it is sailing In rough water , aud will
understand the dlWculty under which the
Valkyrie labored when I say that her
docks were frequently under the water from
the wheels of passing -steamers. So serious
\a \ this imuoyanco and so fatal is u to a fall-
test , of speed that could I have foreseen this
I would not have consented to race In t'icso
crowded waters. With the splendid brcMo
wo should have had a mamiillcent race.
' I think it is very probable that wo wil
win the next race , but to capture the uup 1
must take three straight races , aud well ,
the prospect U somewhat dubious. "
.Iliiy Almiulon the 1'imiiit.
Throughout the interview the carl was
courteous and unemotional to a degree , but
thnro was an inllecjlon in' his voice which
told of utter disgust when ho spoke o * lii .
trusivo excursion boats. Ho professed him
self entirely satislled with the manner'fu
Which the Valkyrlo wai acting , apd th.it.hc
had no idea of trying auy now experiments
in the coming race.
Lord Dutiravcn says ho has not decided to
build another boat for competition next year.
Yachtsmen in New York are convinced that
IJnglaiid will never send over hero another
boat that has not : i centcrboard. and such a
departure from English tradition would bo
too radical for British pertinacity to digest.
The wise ones say thcvij never again will bo
a challenger for'tho America's cup fi-om
England. The same norsons said tlio same
thin ? when the Thl.illo was so badly beaten
by the Volunteer , and their opinion is only
given for what the reader may think
ir. is worth.

tinned Mr. McPljiriiou | , , Is entitled to all
commendation , notouly for summoning con
gress hero , but fopfvhat ho said to congress.
The country was , , } na , great panic nnd ttio
people believed the repeal'of the Sherman
law would mltlgat'6' , ft ° not entirely remove ,
the apprehension. 'Tlfo president concurred
In this belief andi 'hence his roconimonda-
tlon.
tlon.After
After the rnpealjf the Sherman law the
reformation of tlio"ln\ra rolatln ? to coinage
becomes n duty doMrolyjng upon congress and
Is not at present tv * 'subject for action or In
terference. It remains to bo seen whether
congress will not nN' ' wisely as the pr * > sldont
has done. Promptly repeal the Sherman
law , give nature a chancu to got back to her
normal condition , restore conlldcnco In the
ability of the government to maintain its
financial policy , help the crippled banks to
resume , light again the fires In ourfurnances
and start anew the wheels In our factories.
Then lot congress pausonnd rolled.
Soiuitom \ n Unr to thn Homo ,
In conclusion. Mr. MoPhorson said : "Of
what use Is a legislative'body ' that cannot
net as the majority desires ? That a major
ity of this body should bd allowed to stand as
n bar to the other branch 6f congress lu giv
ing effect to the will of the majority of the
pcopio 19 not to bo endured , nnd tha sonata
must llud a way to exercise Its constitutional
functions or cover Itself with contempt. "
When Mr. Mcl'herson 'concluded his
speech Mr. Stewart , republican , of Nevada
asked whether he accused the minority In
thosenato on the repeal bill ot attempting
to thwart the will of the majority other
than by legitimate debate.
Mr. McPherson replied ho had not yet
made such an accusation , but ho did not
know what he would do before the debate
closed.
Mr. Stewart then argued as to the Im
portance of unrestrained debate In the
senate , expressing the belief that this
government woulu bo a monarchy today had
It not been for the somite.
Mr. Stewart drifted Into a general frco
coinage speech , but Mr. Cockroll , who had
yielded the lloor to Mr. McPherson , became
impatient and Mr. Stuwart observing It soon
took his scat.
liitornntluiml Agroomrnt Impossible.
Mr. Cockroll , democrat , of Missouri then
resumed his argument begun yesterday In
opposition to the bill. Ho started with the
statement that any international agreement
with European governments was now Impos
sible.
After Mr. Cockroll had spoken nearly two
hours , Mr. Allen of Nebraska called at
tention to the fact that only eight senators
were present and the presiding ofllcor
directed that 'the roll bo called. Just a
quorum responded and Mr. Cockroll con
tinued his speech.
Mr. Cockrell road extensively from reports
of the international monetary conference of
18G7 to show the part taken by Senator
Sherman , who , ho said , had never been given
proper credit for his oftleient work in aid of
the establishment of the single gold stand
ard. To that couforoncq the United States
sent Samuel Uueglcs as its. representative ,
but Senator Sherman was , in Paris nt the
tlmo unauthorized and ho was introduced to
the conference. That was the only oppor
tunity the United States had to secure an
international blmntall)9 ) agreement , but it
was rejected andSfchntpr Sherman was more
responsible for Its rejection than any other
'
man. . ,
"International liimotallism is a moro
dream , " ho declared' . . ' "We might just as
well seek an Interujtloiial language. Inter
national bimetallism tfas prevented when
the language of the , world was confused at
the Tower of Babel. " '
"Do I understand1 asked Mr. Hawley ,
that the senator frjilii Missouri claims the
nations of the world ! generally are opposed
to International agraombiUi"
' I have not yet .tquuu a , solitary nation in
all the tntcrnatioiilU conferences , " replied
Mr. CoukreU , "which was'willing to give up
its monetary systfcoi for anv other that was
proposed. " -i ; ; ;
Caused by tlic.ClOxltlK of tlio Mlntf.
Mr. Cqckrcll prod.ueedstatistics to show
that tho" duprocifttlfttt Of silver was not duo
to overproduction of Mfa * ; ntotal. On the con
trary the depreciation1 had been caused , ho
said , by legislation closin'g'thc mints against
silver. In substantiation of this stalomont ,
Mr. Cockroll , apparently with ( treat satisfac
tion , road from a speech of Senator Sher
man , made in April , 1871) ) , ' in which that sen
ator said It was not so much the fall of sil
ver , but the rise of cold.
Mr. ' Cockrell , without concluding his
speech , yielded the iloor.
'J'ho house amendment to the house bill
granting settlers on certain lands in Okla
homa the right to commute their homestead
entries was concurred in. The bill will now
go to the president.
The nouso bill repealing the federal elec
tion laws , which passed the house today ,
came up. Mr. Pueh of the Judiciary com
mittee was in the chair at the time and was
about to refer it to that committee. Mr.
Hoar suggested the bill should go to the
cornmittco on privileges and elections. Pending

was laid on the table- .

result will bo. 'J'ho silver men are counting
upon its continuing for forty-eight hours
and are making their plans accordingly.
They will make an effort : at f ) o'clock tomor
row afternoon to secure an adjournment ,
but do not expect to succeed. They do not
doubt there will bo enough senators present
to make a iiuorum ut that time , nor do they
question that the majority will be against
them. Manifestly their only object In seek
ing a vote on this question Is to make the
record complete , that they may have legiti
mate object of complaint ,
After an adjournment motion- voted
down , some ono of the silver advocates will
take the floor and speak until relieved by
some other senator of like views.
The leaders of the silver side say that so
fur as they can control thai force they will
Insist that the majority shull maintain a
quorum. Estimates of the number who can
bo rolled upon to refuse to make a quorum
range all the way from llftoon to thirty. Of
thu others some will bo absent , so It Is

of corn 75.1 , against 7li. . The highest rate
of yield is In Now England , eastern , extreme -

lowest in the central , west and

the result of the drouth during the fall ,
which caused poor germination and growth ,
the sovoro. winter following causing con
siderable winter killing. The low condition
on many states Is the result of a dry spring.

It seems that Mr. Ilorry left South Omaha
rather suddenly. Ills business matters wore-

Mr. Wilco.v that ho had seen some < iuall out

shotgun ho could use. Mr.Vtlcox gave him
the gun and Uerry slai-ttnl off alone. This
was about 2 o'clock In the afternoon. Mr.

a small searching party was made up and

Mr. Hadlock says the report that it was
a case of attempt at suicide was current in
Ida Grove. If this is true the friends of
Mr. Berry in South Omaha , state they have
no idea of the cause. It is certain , how
ever , that at the time Berry loft South
Omaha ho appeared to bo very inucli worried
about something. Qlt was evidently not over
money matters , as the young man was
fairly well supplied with finances , and his
fathcr-in-Jaw. in whoso employ ho was soon
to enter , is quoted as being very wealthy.
Berry was never accused of being stingy ,
and some of his acquaintances oven went so"

taxpayers and against reckless expenditure
of thu city's money by extravagant city of-
licials. Mr. Brcen made a strong argument
in favor of the league. He said it was the
thinir for the men who had to pay the taxes.
It gave , protection to all , and aid not inter
fere with any individual rights. Ho said ho
had looked over the records of thu city and
found some startling facts. Hack hire had
been paid out of the city treasury , one man
had drawn two salaries , and other things
could bo found that were equally as unjust.
The organization of the league would re

too high in this city at the present timo.
