Wai Landed Nnfoly JIo-

f
J. P. I/ipan , a farmer living near Mtaouft
Valley , was In the city yesterday nioralnV ,
and as a result of his vUlt three men occupy
the stool cell In the city jail , With a fair
prospect of douning A garb of stripes with
out the stars before they got out of the
present neck of woods. Logan has a
good deal of the outward appearance of a
man who has como in from the backwoods
to take a looicat the "railroad kccrs , " but
his appearances arc somewhat deceptive.
Ho was sharp enough to bag three of his
would-bo victnmzcrs.
. Ho was in the vicinity of the North
western depot when a man introduced him
self and wanted to got acquainted. Logan
was of a sociable turn of mind and had no
objections. After n tlmo another man came
up. He was nn his way to California , where
a relative of his had Just died. Ho provlaen-
tlallyratne up Just after the first raun had
ploked up n small padlock.
"What's thatyou'vo gott" was his .first
question. Tno man with the lock told him
ho had just picked it up on the street.
Tlii-lr Work Wat a Trlflo Co me.
The usual parlov took place and the two
con men wanted to got up a bet with the
Missouri Vnlloy man that the lock could not
bo opened. The country man bad been the
object of so many would-bu confidence men
that ho was prepared for the nmergcncv ,
Ho firmly refused to do tiny gambling , and at
the first opportunity cut loose from his newfound
found friends.
Going to the marshal's office , ho Informed
thoofllrcrsof what taken place , and fur
nished them with a description , of the two
follows. Onlccrs Covalt and Sload soon ran
across three men in the neighborhood of
Bayllss park. Two of them answered the
description of the two wanted , ana all three
were consequently run In. At the patrol
box they tried to throw uway their IOCKS ,
but uero detected ana foiled.
Locun wont to the Jail immediately after
they had been put insldo , and recognised the
two men as the ones who tried to work him.
Ho hud never scon the third , but the lattcr's
actions nt the Jail were suspicious , and the
ofttccrs believe that the only reason ho did
not appear In the game was that the gnmo
stopped too soon7 Hn gave his name as B.
Borschers. and among his effects were n
number of blank checks. The other two
men gave their mimes us James Williams
and James Spencer.
They Wore Otnalia Talent.
It was at first teared- that Borsohors
would have to be turned loose on account of
lack of evidence to connect him with the
gang , but developments late In tno afternoon
showed differently. The Om.ihu authorities
were notified of the catch and Officers Mos-
tj n , Savage and Deinpsey came over , accom
panied by a man \v ho > vus worked on Tues
day to the tune of $45 in cash by one of the
old limo conlidcnco tricks. When shown
the three men the sucker at once Identified
Spencer and Boischors ns the two men who
dm the job. Borschers was taken across
the river , but his partner will have to stay
hero awhile. Borschors also recognized his
victim and greeted him pleasantly when he"
entered the room.
The man who had eivcn his namo' as Will
iams was recognized by the Omaha officers
ns "Swede Henry'1 ' Anderson , one of the
most notorious confidence sharks in tbo west ,
and Spencer Is his son Pete , also a well
known memocr of the profession.Pete"
wore a false beard when ho turnea the trick
in Omaha , but his victim recognized him by
his walk and his gcner.il build , which is sev
eral sizes smaller than that of most men.
Ho formerly was employed as district inrs-
soiigci boy in Omnha , but forsook that call
ing some years ago for ono that would bring
in moro money.
Convicted In Nebraika Once.
The older Anderson was sent up from
the Omnha courts for two years in the peni
tentiary for ono of Lis former escapades.
Borschers. in addition to the confidence
charcc , will also have to answer to several
charges of fogery.
There Is great rejoicing in the police de
partments of both cities over this catch , and
Officers Covalt and Sloaa are entitled to con
siderable credit for the part they pliyed in
the affair. There is but little doubt that all
three men will bo sent over the road. Logan
declares that he will prosecute to the finish ,
and ns L < i Plocho and Sbcpard got two
years last Monday for playing the same
trick , what the llntsh will bo seems to bo
pretty definitely settled. The Omaha victim
also says ho will stay there and prosecute.
Helped a Stranger.
Daniel Corbltt. a young man who has
btion running a threshing machine encino on
a farm near Sioux City , also brushed up
ncixlnst u confidence man yesterday , but ho
was not so smart us the Missouri Valley
man , nr.d consequently he Is not so rich. Ho
called at the city marshal's office yester
day afternoon with his heart full of wormwood - *
wood and gall. A trick that wus older than
Methuselah had Just been worked on him ,
but It was ns now to him as though it had
Just been Invented. The confidence man
was hardly worthy of being so called , for
by the young man's own admission the
only claim ho made for friendship was
the fact that ho expected to go
out on the same Kansas City train with the
young man in the ovoning. Ho then wanted
u loan of 15 to assist in paying the express
cuarcres on a package. Corbltt had seen a
chock fortSTO In the young man's possession ,
and having a great deal of confidence in a
man who had so much money all at ono tlmo
ho willingly loaned him the f5 , which wus
the sum total of his pllo. The con man then
went up into the Merrlam block to get his
check cashed , and it Is needless to say he
did not ruturn to pursue his acquaintance
with the guileless young man. Corbltt
afterwards Imd a suspicion that the * 870
check had been Improvised for the occasion.
Ho lives in Dotlmm county. Missouri.

They Threw Ovnrboaril a Chance to Junket
a AVIillo at the World's Fair.
There was an adjourned mooting of the
city council last evening with the mayor
and all the aldermen , present excepting
Gclso and White.
An invitation was read from the manage
ment of the World's fair asking the council
to be present at the exposition festivities on
the "Stli as guests of the exposition. Alder
man Smith presented a resolution accepting
the invitation and declaring that all the
members of the council should attend the
fair on the day in question without expense
to thcrlty. The lastclausom his resolution
was underscored. Most of the aldermen
would have liked to do away wfth that portion
tion , but they allowed their patriotism to
get the better of their natural willingness
to got something for nothing and passed the
resolution , with the result that the World's
fair will probably have to worrjf along on
the 28th without the Council Bluffs alder
men.
James G. Bradley filed his bond as chief
of the fire department , which was approved.
It was In the sum of $2.000 , and the sureties
were W. C. James and 1J. C. Devol.
An ordinance was proposed to take the
plnco of the ono now on the books providing
that no sidewalks shall bo constructed on
Broadway from First street to Eighth
street , on 1'carl street from Broadway to
Sixth avenue , and on Main street from
Broadway to Ninth avenue , of any
material excepting natural or artificial
stone. The new ordinance is designed to
amona the old bv allowing hard-burned
brick to boused. After the second reading
it was laid over until the next meeting.
The committee on bridges was authorized
to ropalr the Indian creek bridges on Tenth
sticct and Twentieth avenue.
. The city solicitor was authorized to secure
the necessary abstracts to proceed with the
condemnation of property so as to open up
Little Curtis and North First streets.
The motor company was ordered to move
its tracks at the intersection of Broadway
and Oak street so as to" leave a space of
thirteen feet between the rail and the curb
stone.
The bids of L. C. Besley , C. H. Ifuber and
E. A. Wickham for sewer work were opened
and referred to the city engineer for tabula
tion. When the bids had been tabulated it
was found that Stimson & Huber wore the
lowest on pipe sewer and Wickham on brick
sower. Wickham had put his bid on brick
down to the lowest notch In order to capture
the whole business , and Huber had done the
same on the pipe in order to catch Wickham.
When the table was consulted the council
came it over both of them by dividing up
and giving the brick to Wickham and the
pluo to Stimson & Huber. Huber kicked
vieorously at this and declared ho would not
sign any such contract. Wickham was
enough of a philosopher to accept the situa
tion.
I The clerk was Instructed to advertise tor
bids for the construction of a forty-foot
bridge over Indian creek on Seventh street ,
to take the place of the ono that has been
condemned.
O. W. Graham's request for the remission

Itear Ailmlrnl Stantun Disciplined for f >
llrcncn of National Ktlquotte.
WJLSIIIXOTON , Oct. 25. The Navy depart
ment learned by telegram from Hoar
Admiral Stanton , in command of the United
States naval forces at Rio do Janeiro , that
this ofilcor had saluted the flag of Admiral
Mollo , commanding the insurgent fleet.
This salute was unauthorized by any In
structions the admiral hart received. It was
an unfriendly act toward a friendly power ,
and the secretary of the navy , after consult
ing nlth the president and secretary of
state , issued an order detaching Admiral
Stanton from command of his squadron and
turning it over to Captain Picking , the next
ofllcer in rank. This was In reply to a tele
gram of inquiry.
Secretary Herbert early today saw the
Associated press dispatch from Rio do Ja
neiro saying the American commander had
exchanged visits and salutes with Admiral
Mcllo of the insurgent Hoot. Ho was loth
to believe the statements were correct and
expressed his doubts to a reporter who
called upon him. If Admiral Stanton had
merely exchanged an ordinary , unortlclal
visit on business matters with Admiral
Mollo the secretary would not have been
surprised , nor would he probably have taken
further notice of it , as it is said nt the Navy
department , , this would not bo improper.
But the secretary saw at once the serious
and unfortunate nature of the step snld to
have been taken by Admiral Stanton and
how it might bo construed by the lawful
government of Dra7.ll. Ho therefore lost no
time in promptly cabling to Rio for all the
facts in the case , to which ho received a
prompt reply with the results noted above.
Naval ofltcials talked with on the subject
are at a loss to account for so serious a
breach of duty on the part of Admiral
Stanton.
It is said that Captain Picking will remain
in clmrgo of the lleot of American ships In
the haroor , possibly riermaneutly , or at any
rate until a successor to Rear Admiral
Stanton is appointed. CommodorO Ramsey ,
chio' of the bureau of navigation , said today
it had not yet been determined who would
euececd Stanton.
Information has boon received at the
State department from Minister Thomson at
Rio to the ofTcr.t that the rebels claim to
have established a provisional government
in the slate of St. Catherina , with Scnor
Loreno ns president.
Secretary Herbert expressed his surprise
that an ofilcor of Admiral Stanton's experi
ence and standing should commit such a
blunder , ana his prompt action is taken for
the purpose of announcing " the world that
the United States government nas taken no
steps to refuse recognition to'tho legally con
stituted Brazilian government.
