talk on the "Different Nebraska Insects. "
Then followed the stellar attraction of the
day , Count Lublenskl , with nn address on
"Sugar Beet Culture and the Douglas County
Factory. "
Many of the agriculturists expressed
great surprise at the count's ability In
speaking the English language so fluently
and were drawn hero to the afternoon ses
sion particularly to listen to his recountal
of the sugar beet Industry from the stand
point of" the manufacturer.
Owing to the bounty being taken off of
sugar , the count expressed his doubts about
the Douglas county factory being built , as
the 'way the matter stands now growers
would only bo able to realize about $3 per
ton for the beets where they formerly re
ceived $5 per ton. The Platte and Elkhorn
valleys , declared the speaker , Is the center
of the boot growing belt of Nebraska , and
sooner or later a factory will bo built In
the vicinity of Valley.

Following the count Mr. Jowott of Platte
Center told his brother farmers his ex
perience for the past two seasons in growing
beets for the Norfolk factory. Mr. Jowett
deprecates the fact of the bounty being
taken off of sugar , but will raise 400 acres

AVnrilen of n Famous Mrxlrnn 'Prison Out-
UeiB Into Hot \Vutrr.
C1TV OP MRXICO , Feb. 1. High of
ficial circles arc deeply concerned br
charRca innilo against Colonel Santnclla ,
warden of tha national Uclctn prison. The
charges nro sufficient to warrant his Incar
ceration In his own prlsoniyt owing to a
technicality ho has thus ftr' escaped actual
Imprisonment , although this Is still being con
flldorcd. H Is expected the hearing which
will bo held will dlncloso a surprising state
of affairs In the famous castle. Ono of the
charges brought against the warden la that
he allowed an Inmate to bo beaten to death
by tlio other prisoners. Another charge Is
that , ona of the civil guards employed In
the prison quitting his work , Santaclla sent
out a squad of troops utter him , and when ,
ho was arrested ho was placed In confine
ment In the jail. Many other charges are
mndo regarding tho" autocratic rule of the
warden , nnd a fqll Investigation Is to bo
rrtmle with tlio outlook anything but hopeful
for the defendant.
VAQUI INDIANS CAUSING TROUBLE.
Ouayinas , Sonorra.Fob. 1 , The com
pany of nearly fifty rebel YaquI Indians who
recently left their strongholds in the moun
tains for the Interior of the state are giv
ing more trouble. They ore evidently en-
rotito to their old raiding grounds and are
very hard to follow. Two outfits of Indians
arc supposed to have lately left their reser
vation , and Ilieso will number close to 100
altogether. The Indians arc being watched
very closely nnd the troops will bo pushed
forward against them if nny outbreak Is
attempted. A call has been made for the
available men In the state to join In a
movement under the direction of the mili
tary authorities of the flrst military zone
to press the tribe of Yaquls Into tholr moun
tain stronghold , and , If necessary , extermi
nate the rebels.

'SAN FRANCISCO , Feb. 1. The Examiner
today prints a story which , if true , puts an
end to many conflicting stories of the escape
of the bandits Chris Evans nnd Ed Morrel.
to Mexican territory or to Europe. Under
date of January 25 the paper print a long In
terview purporting to have been hold with the
bandits that day nt Sampson's flat. Richard
Hlgclow , a man well known In the San
Joacjulti valley and who was once engaged
In business with Evans , sends tlio interview.
Evans also sent a short letter to the local
newspaper men. There Is little doubt that
this letter was written by the bandit. The
two refugees talked freely of their experi
ences in tlio mountains and foothills In the
vicinity of Sampson's flat and told of
several occasions on which Sheriff Scott's
men were very close upon them. The
bandits claim they are being well provled
for by the m'ners and ranchers In that
wild mountainous region. Dlgelow quotes
Evans as follows : "At the present wo nro
going to stay right In the mountlns and take
our time and opportunity as we please In
leaving for foreign parts. " '

WILSON BILL PASSED
fCONTINUKIl FllOJt FIIIST PAdR. ) _
amendment was then agreed to by a vote of
202 to 101.
The speaker then announced that the vote
was upon the amendments adopted by the
committee of the whole.
Mr. Johnson ot Ohio demanded a separata
vote on the wool and woolen goods amend
ments.
Mr. English , democrat , of Now Jersey
asked for a separate vote upon the Income
tax , and upon the petroleum amendment.
The other amendments , Including that
abolishing the bounty on sugar and that
placing refined sugar on the free list , wcro
then agreed to In bulk without division ,
The first amendment which Mr. Johnson
desired a separate vote upon was that of
placing wool on the frco list Immediately
upon the passage of the bill. This amend
ment having been vitiated by a later amend
ment placing tha data at August 2 , a point
of order was raised that the latter amend
ment must bo first voted upon , but nftcr
some discussion the chair decided that the
Johnson amendment must first bo voted upon
to perfect the text , and the rent test would
come upon the amendment to strike out the
words "Immediately after the passage of the
bill , " and Insert "on and after August 2. "
VOTE ON .THE WOOL SCHEDULE.
The amendment was therefore agreed to
by a vote of 205 to 147. Mr. Johnson tried
to got the ayes and nays , but could only
muster five vetcH to his aid ,
The amendment fixing the date as Decem
ber 2 when the manufactured wool schedule
should go Into effect was also adopted by a
vote of 200 to 130 , Mr. Johnson again being
unable to secure the ayes and nays.
The vote was then taken upon the amend
ment providing for reciprocity In petroleum
and It was carried by a vote of 177 to 47.
The last amendment to bo voted upon was
that providing for the Income tax. Mr.
Cockran demanded the ayes and nays upon
this amendment. It was significant that the
republicans refused to second the demand
for the ayes and nays , but enough
democrats arose , flfty-ono , to order
the roll call. It was then found the In com o
tax could not be voted upon as a separate
proposition , the speaker deciding. In accord
ance with a precedent which he cited , that
the Internal revenue amendment having been
reported as a single amendment could not
bo divided. Tha vote.thcreforo , was upon
the entire rejection of the Internal revenue
amendment.
The republicans , with few exceptions , re
fused to vote , but the amendment , Includ
ing the Income tax , was adopted by a vote of
m to GO.
MOVED TO RECOMMIT THE ! BILL.
Some cheering greeted the announcement
of the vote. The bill was engrossed and
read the third time. The last stage In the
passage of the bill had been reached when
Mr. Covert , democrat , of Now York moved
to recommit the bill to the committee with
Instructions "to report It back with such
amendments as will provide for duties
levied on Imports for such additional rev
enue ns may bo ncsessary to the support of
the government economically administered. "
Upon that motion Mr. Cockran demanded
the yea's and nays , but only thirty-six
democrats rose to second the demand
( principally those who had voted against
the Income tax , together with the Louis
iana sugar men ) , not a sufficient number
The motion to recommit was then defeated
on a rising vote by 103 to 77.
ON THE FINAL VOTE.
Then came the final vote on the bill Itself ,
on which an aye and nay vote was asked
and granted by a rising voto. The roll
call was watched with marked attention ,
and frequent bursts of tppUuse gieeted
accessions to one side or the otho. Beltz-
hoover of Pennsylvania was the Prst to
win applause by his aye vote , Indicating
that the Pcnnsylvanlans were falling Into
line. Immediately after this Ill-miliard of
Louisiana was applauded as ho votrd aye ,
and showed the Louisiana opposition to the
bill was not Intact Mr. liockran'a vote In
favor of the bill brought out choiring : The
climax of Iho demonstration , was reached
when the nameof \Vllsan-nuyur t > f the
bill was reached , the demojr.its cheering
vociferously , a final recognition of his lead
ership. The speaker ask.-d tint liis iamo :
be called , and ho answered In the nfliinia-
tlve. Then the speaker nnnoiincod : "On
this question , the ayes are 204 and the nays
are 140 and the bill Is passed. "

A wrangle took place over the bond reso
lution of Senator Stewart , these favorins
the resolution insisting that it hud gone over
yesterday with the 'understanding that it
should cotno up this morning , and others
maintaining that there had been no sucli
understanding , and that the resolution hav
ing gone to the calendar must como up in its
regular order , A reading of the records sus
tained the declaration that the resolution
hud gone to the calendar , but it was llnally
permitted to bo taken up by unanimous con-
sont.
Senator Sherman read a letter In which
ox-Secretary of the Treasury Foster denies
that In January last ho had ordered the
preparation of platen for the Issuing of bonds
generally. Ho had , however , after the U nor
cent bond bill passed the senate , caused
plates to bo issued for these bonds , but for
uono othor.

Interrupting at this Juncture , Senator
Vest secured unanimous consent that the
bill for the slto and'crectlon ' of a new gov
ernment printing ofllco should bo nmdo a
special order for next Wednesday and bo
considered until disposed of.
Senator Stewart of Nevada then tooic the
floor ou the bond resolution.
The principal speeches of the day were
made by Senators Stewart and Allison , both
of whom contended that the secretary of
the treasury had no power to Issup bonds
for other purposes than redemption , and
that it would bo a violation of law for the
secretary to use the money thus accruing for
the purpose of mooting expenditures.
Senator Dubols of Idaho said ho could not
vote for Stewart's resolution , because it de
nied the power of the secretary to issue
bonds for any purpose.
Senator Cull of Florida took the position
that the secretary of the treasury had not
the power to issue bonds for the purpose con
templated.
At 5:10 : the senate went into executive ses-
sioiiiwith. the understanding that the resolu
tion should go over until tomorrow , and at

CINCINNATI , Fob. 1. The first billiard
tournament Cincinnati has had In eighteen
years opened auspiciously tonight at Pike's
opera house , The three-sided match between
Ivcs , Schaeffer and Slosson began with
SchaefTcr and Slosson as the first contest
ants. The match Is for Jt.COO and the not
gate receipts , divided as follows : fifty per
cent to the winner , 30 to second and 20 per
cent to the third. The anchor nurse was
barred. A. C. Anson acted as referee. No
extraordinary high runs \\ero made , although
there was a degree of steadiness.
Scliacflcr won the bank and , choosing the
black ball , ran thirty-one points. In the
next five Innings SchaefTcr missed twice on
the first shot. The sixth opened with
Slosson 40 , Schaeffer 43. Schaeffcr made
the highest run of the game , 74 , In the next
six Innings and played brilliantly until the
twelfth Inning. In the six Innings the Wizard
piled up 35C points , his lowest run being 33.
SchaefTcr used the anchor nurse with great
Hklll every tlmo ho secured It , breaking the
balls so that ho was soon abla to anchor
them again. Several of his splendid masses
and difficult round-tha-tublo shots brought
rounds of applause. After this Schacffer's
playing fell off.
Slosson , In the meantime , who had counted
only 130 times , began to Improve and while
Schaeffer was doing almost nothing , Slosson
steadily Increased his standing until the
twenty-fourth Inning , when the score stood ,
Schaeffcr 523 ; Slosson 437. Slobon did the
best playing In the twenty-fifth Inning and
his friends expected him to overtake his op
ponent. Ho received the heartiest applause
on a brilliant masse draw across the table ,
By beautiful position playing ho brought the
balls together at the lower end of the table ,
and reeled oft forty-five points , missing on a
simple draw. Slosson missed his next two
shots , while Schuffer scored sixteen.
When Schaeffer came up In the twenty-
eighth Inning the balls wcro In splendid
position , and getting the anchor ho rapidly
clicked off nine points , rolled the red ball
across the table and began again. Finally
as he worked the balls toward the center of
the table , playing with great rapidity and
keeping them together with marvelous
skill , tlio spectators realized that the game
was won , and proceeded to give the Wizard
a lusty cheer. Score by Innings :

of $50 to the coast , which would cover the
differential claimed by the Canadian Pacific
on Its water traffic. A vote was taken , but
not announced , ns It' was the dcslro of
Chairman Caldwell to secure the concurrence
of the Southern Pacific In the proposition to
equalize the rates. The meeting will bo
resumed tomorrow.
The Central Traffic association lines , which
met today to discuss the formation of a pas
senger pool , decided to refer the matter of
the division of business to local associations

Another special meeting of the Uoanl ot
Public Works was held late Wednesday af
ternoon , and the scalp of another Inspector
was dexterously lifted. S. I. Morrison wan
the victim , and the place that has known
him for several years \\lll know him no
more. IVi held a position In the sewer
commissioner's department , and his re
moval \\as due to the submission
of a communication by Major
Furay , who expressed the opinion
that the best Interests of the public service
demanded that the tlmo and services of
Morrison be dispensed with from this mo
ment , and asking the other members of the
board to coincide with him In that belief.
The roll was called and Furay and Halcombn
voted to dismiss the Inspector , Chairman
Wlnspear voting In the minority against It.
The vacancy was not filled , but will not
bo allowed to remain long vacant , as thcro
Is just an much wotk of that kind going on
now as at any time , and the services of an
Inspector are needed. Hctronchmcnt was
not the motive that prompted the action ,
but rather n lack of harmony between the
Inspector and his chief. Morrison hold tlio
place when It was run In connection with
the building Inspector's office , and had a
disagreement with Inspector Tilly , which re
sulted In an attempt to remove himIn fact the
order was In his hands , but friends In the
council succeeded In keeping him on the
payrollcx-Conncllnian McLeorlo making a
vigorous fight In his behalf.
It was then charged that the opposition
was due to his democracy and the fact that
ho carried a belligerent transparency In the
Cleveland ratification parade , and McLcnrlo
made the point that to rule out n man. be
cause ho sported a carmlnq plug hat and a
Cleveland rooster was an unlawful Interfer
ence with the Ood-glven rights of a freeborn -
born American citizen.
The action with reference to Morrison
was the only business transacted at Wednes
day's meeting.

CBACKED A SAFE.
Iturglars Dluko Neat JIuul from n VInton
Street Hurdiraro Storn.
The hardware store of M. Knocht , 1702
VInton street , was entered by burglars
Wednesday night , the safe opened and ? 125
in money taken.
Entrance was effected by placing n lad
der to the transom of the rear door and
climbing through. Once inside the thieves
unlocked a side door opening upon Seven
teenth street , and were thus prepared for
a hasty exit , In case they wore discovered.
The outside door of the safe was closed but
not locked , and the steel door of the strong
box was' burst In shortorder. A drill was
used and the bolt heads which hold the lock
were drilled off and pushed Inside , then the
lock fell off. In the small drawer the money
was found. About ? 10 worth of
pocket knives were also taken.
A box of fine razors had been
taken from the safe and placed on a box
by the door through which the safe blower's
left the store. The box w as found there
yesterday and It Is probable that In
their haste to leave this box of booty was
forgotten. The work of drilling oft the bolt
heads was skillfully done , and the police de
tectives arc sure that experienced cracks
men did the job.

Sioux Falls , S. I ) . , Fob. 1 ( Special to The
Heo-lumos ) Hollloy , n salooutst , concluded
to beat the city out of the customary line of
$75 per month. His plan was promptly de
feated in justice court yesterday , but ho
gave notice of appeal. The defendant do-
nlea the right of the city to line him. This
cnso will bo of interest , ns It deals with a
' -ticklish" point. Dealing in Intoxicants
Is forbidden by the state constitution. The
city officials saw that the law was so gun-
orally violated in this city that they took it
upon themselves to regulate It. A disor
derly nouso" ordinance was passed which
imposed a line of 87.1 a month on violators.
With some twenty saloons running that
ordinance has worked well until Hofilcy be-
camohostlln , nnd now the validity of iho or-
dlnanco will likely bo tested.
