FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ASKED FOR Special Committee Appointed to InvcltlRiUc Acllon of Klectrlclty on UmlcrRrouml I'lpcn Opening of ? iortli Tlilr- . tccnlli Blrccl Oilier Mutter * . A large accumulation of routine business wns disposed of nt a long nnd tedious ses sion of the city council last night. The bill of the Harbor Asphalt company for street repairs during 1891 , which has hung flre over since , was finally approved on the recommendation of the committee on Judiciary. The bill amounts to $11,250.08 , Including Interest , amounting to $1,019.17. Tlfe electrolysis question was brought up Ly a ccm.nunhatton fiom MaJ r Furty , which was addressed to Councilman Wheeler. The lacts were stated as published In last even- Ing's Uee , and , In accordance with a resolu tion by Wheeler , President Ilowell ap pointed Wheeler , Burklcy and Ilascall as a special committee to Investigate the matter In dutnll nnd report at n future meeting. A communication from the Hoard of Health stated that unless nomef additional provision was made for the board It would be necessary to discharge all sanitary Inspectors specters at the end of the month. A further appropriation of $5,324 was asled for to pay tin- running expenses of the board for the remainder of the year. The rcatiesl was referred over the vehement protest of Hns- call , who wanted It laid on the table. L. M. Uhcom was granted a four days leave of absence to visit Chicago In the Interest ? of the city electrical department. The oniclal bond of Mr. Rhcem , with W. N. Nason , C. W. Thompson and C. W. Lytle as Mirotles , was approved. The petition of the SclilltzHrewlng com pany to bd allowed to construct n roof gar den on Its prospective new building nt Six teenth nnd Harney streets was granted. The date of the sitting of the council us n board of equalization on special taxes was changed to Friday , May 25. The Water Works company was authorized to lay n water main on North Twenty- seventh street , between Ilurdette and Grant streets , at Its own expense. The appraisers' fees on the Southwest boulevard , amounting to $670 , were ap proved and ordered placed In the next ap- - proprlatlon ordinance. On recommendation of the finance com mittee the suit of Matthewson T. 1'atrlck against the city for the value of land oc cupied for street purposes near Twenty- fourth nnd Lake streets was ordered settled for $5,000 , the amount to no credited to Mr. 1'atrick In payment for taxes. The report of the committee recommend ing the passage of the ordinance opening North Thirteenth street from Nicholas to Ohio streets precipitated a sharp debate. Saunders wanted tlmo to make a minority re port , while Howcll and Jacobsen wanted the matter settled at once. The report was Dually adopted. Another discussion followed the adverse report of the committee on the ordinance requiring all persons engaged In bill posting or distributing any kind of advertising mat ter to take out a license. Saunders objected to the views of the committee , contending that some regulation of this business was necessary. Calm , Howell'and Ilascall sup ported the committee , on the ground that the ordinance created a monopoly. The ordinance was referred back to the oom- , , niltteo , with instructions to draft a new " -'t ordinance , v . _ , > v The fbill of the Thomson-Houston company - pany lor , April , amounting to 52,640.23 , was T allowed.

Matt Gurln Aludo un Antl-C'lcvoliiml Speech anil Lost u .lol ) . " S. R. Rush of this city has been appointed assistant United States district attorney , under A. J. Sawyer , nnd was sworn In yester day afternoon , The appointment was received Monday afternoon at Lincoln , and was for warded by mall to Mr. Snell to the district attorney here. By the way , there Is n little story of political uncertainty In connection with this appointment. U will be remem bered that Matt Goring of I'lattsmouth , who was the democratic nominee last year for attorney ceneral , was a candidate later on for the district nttorueyshlp , and when Mr. Sawyer harvested that plum , Mr. Gerlng concluded that he would tnke the place of assistant , provided he could get It. Every thing looked lovely , so much so , In fact , that It was given out that ha was about to re move to this city. His candidacy was smiled on by Mr. Sawyer , who went BO far as to en dorse him for the position , and the recom mendation wns forwarded to Washington. The appointment was about to be made , but It so happened that during the recent municipal campaign at South Omaha Gerlng was Induced to go down there ono night and , raako a speech at a political rally. It was a "sorry night for hlnV , for under the subtle In fluences that sometimes turn up at a demo cratic powxwow ho jumped 'Onto the adminis tration nt Washington' nnd ripped It up the back until the sawdust stuffing flew In all directions. Mr. Sawyer was apprised of ' what had transpired and a telegram was hastily sped on Its way to the national cap ital , revoking the endorsement and recom mendation previously sent there. Other matters of a personal nature were brought to the attention of Gerlng's backers and It was concluded that he had Infirmities as well as strong points. On. these it was quietly given out that the change In jiosltlon was based , but the speech at South Omaha was what did the business , . Suffice It to say Mr. Gerlng didn't gel the "yob , " and Mr. Rush was speedily grabbed up as the nest'ln Hue. ANOTHER INDIAN COMPANY. lied Soldiers from Fort Sidney Will lie Transferred to Omnlin. Yesterday General Brooke , commander of the Department of the Platte , directed that company I ( Indians ) , Twenty-first Infantry , bo relieved from duty at their present sta tion , Fort Sidney , Neb. , and transferred to Fort Omaha. This company , consisting of forty-three Indians , under command of Second end Lieutenant Soay , will travel by rail to Omaha. They leave Sidney on the 24th of this month and will arrive at Fort Omaha the next afternoon. Captain W. F. Spur- gin Is the ranking ' offlcor of this company. Lawrence .J. He'a'rn Is first lieutenant , and Samul Seay second lieutenant. Both the captain and his first lieutenant are at pres ent on detached duty and the command of the Indians devolves upon Lieutenant Seay. This Is a compliment to Seay because lie" went among ( ho Yankton Indians and raised a full company , and snco ! the enlistment of these men Mr > Seay has taken great pains to teach them the drills and discipline of the army. Conformably to paragraph 10. Special Or ders No. 100 , current series , Headquarters of the Army , troop F , Ninth cavalry ( Wright's ) , Is designated to take station at Fort Du Cliosno , Utah , and will proceed to that post by the route In the manner Indi cated In said order ; leaving Fort Robinson In time to reach Rawllns , Wyo. , on May 30 , at. which point it will be furnished with the necessary wagon transportation for Its march to Fort Du Chesne.

The case of the Midland State bank against the school district of Omaha was on for hearing In Judgn Ferguson's court yesterday , where the creditors ot Brayton & Donecken , the contractors on the Franklin and the Hartman school buildings , were proving up their claims , The bank people were on hand to try and establish the fact that the money which they loaned to the contractors wont Into the buildings und that therefore they should bo allowed to como In as pre ferred creditors. They were also willing to prorate with the material men nnd take their share ot the money which Is held back by the school district. The laborers and ma terial men objected to the proposition nnd the afternoon was devoted to hearing argu ments upon this feature of the case. Not In the County.

DISGUSTING AND ATROCIOUS CRIME Onicer § with Dlfllcnltjr Snvo One of the llrntcH from the linnets of n Mob Tliu Otlior Kuciipcs-Tho Child's Story. Lewis Crane was arrested yesterday by Detective Vaughn and Ofllccer Kclglemnn ( or assaulting 1'carl , the 3-year-old ilaughtcr ot Mrs. tlovcc , a widow residing at 1311 South Seventeenth street. Lewis Is about G ! > years of age , and for the past two years has been living In a little shanty , 1472 South Sixteenth street. He docs not do any work , and lives by the char ity of neighbors. The place In which he lives la recking with fillli , and the only time that It receives any cleaning IB when some ona ono goes there and docs It. There Is fllth two Inches deep on the floor , and the shanty Is banked up on both sides by manure. There are two windows facing Sixteenth street , but only one entrance , In the rear. Last winter Mrs. IJoveo was In the habit of going to this place and occasionally , as did others of the neighbors , taking eatables to the old man. No other person was over seen about except Crane until two weeks ago , when n fellow who went by the name of Alvle Chambers made his appearance. He lived with the old man , and once or twice brought some food to him. Chambers the police are now looking for. He Is also accused of commuting an assault on the child previous to Crane. The facts In the matter , as nearly as can be ascertained , are that Mrs. Dovee , about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon , went to the residence of Mrs. Kclley , at 1321 South Seventeenth street , to make a visit. While she was there her daughter went to her and asked permission to go down the street to play with some children , Permission was granted. OFFERED HER CANDY. On the way she met this Alvle Chambers. She knew him through Crane , and In a childish way said "Hello , " and went about her play. There was nothing seen of Cham bers for a few moments , and when he came back he had five pennies. He took a B-cent piece and went to a grocery store and got It changed * Into pennies. He called the child to him and gave her the pennies , saying "Go and get some ca'ndy. " The child took , the change and was soon off to get the candy , and started north on Seventeenth street. She was followed by Chambers , and after they had gone a block or two he picked her \ip In his arms and took her back to her honje. The door was locked , and he broke It open. The bed Is In the front room , and he took from It u quilt , and , wrapping the child in It , ran from the house with her. The child did not suspect anything wrong , and was laughing that she should be thus carried about. He retraced the steps the child took In going for the candy. At Fourteenth street , near the viaduct , there Is a. vacant barn , and straightway to this place he took the child. Even then the little thing did not suspect what was going to be done , but when ho went and securely fastened the door she began to scream. He soon stopped this by placing his hand over her mouth. The quilt was spread upon the floor and the child most cruelly assaulted. Ho then wrapped the child In the quilt and left the barn , but soon released the girl and disappeared. Going to Crane's shanty to Inquire about her mother , the girl says that there she was assaulted by Crane. Two boys , Eddie Stegeman and Charley O'Meara , who hap pened to be passing about this time , looekd In at the window and saw Crane washing the blood from the little girl. Her screams attracted the attention of Mrs O'Meara , who went 'and took her home. To her the child said that Crane "hurt her , " and Mrs. O'Meara saw that the child had been bleeding. 'She called In Mrs. Dalton , who lives next door , and they made an examination of the child. They were horrified. The blood streamed from the child's wounds and they at once saw what had been done when the child salt ! Crantr "hurt her. " Mrs. O'Meara and 'Mrs. Italian at once notlflcd the police. Officer Relgleman and Detective Vaughn were soon on hand. They were told where to go to find Crane. A rap at the shanty door brought no response. They broke It In and there they found the old man lying on a heap of rotten straw. There were blood stains on the straw and other evi dences , of what had been done. The old man denied all knowledge of the crime. Ho said it was an outrage to arrest him , as ho was old and had been suffering from disease for three weeks. Ho was taken from the shanty , however , to the sidewalk. The news of the crime spread like wlld- flro about the neighborhood. Men , , women and children flocked to the shanty In hundreds. The old man was caught sight of and one among the crowd was heard to say : "There Is the man. " Instantly a break was made for him , old and feeble /.though ho was , and shouts of "hang him" were heard on every hand. The old man trembled with fear. The women' that were mingled with the crowd were as much aroused as the men , 'and one , a Swedish .Udy , who has long .known the little- girl on whom the assault was committed , came out with a Kc'ttlc of , bolllng water and threw It at Crane. None of it reached him , how ever. CROWD'WANTED HIM. A rush was made upon the two officers and ono man got a good hold on Crane. Ho was assisted by others and the officers were alarmed. Detective Vaughn Jcnocked down the man who had taken hold ot Crane , and Officer Ilclgleman followed It up. The patrol wagon was then In sight , and as It was filled with officers no further violence was offered to Crane. He was then taken to jail. Ho was asked what he knew about the case , but denied all knowledge of It. Ho said ho did not oven know the girl , nor had ho ever seen her. UutMhls Is con tradicted by people living In the vicinity. Chambers , who It is alleged perpetrated the first assault , has not been found. Mr. Saunders says that he knows Chambers , that he Is a worthlezs fellow who hangs about the saloons In the neighborhood and never does anything for a living. This is substantiated by others and by the mother herself. After the child liad , been assaulted by Crane , the latter WAS taken to the child's home , and as soon as she g ot her eyes upon him she said : "That Is the man who hurt mo a while ago , " and she drew away In terror. Mrs. Dovco earns lierr living by washing. This Is the only child she has. She henrn an excellent reputation In the neighborhood , and as boon as the assault became known the little house was jammed by people anxious to learn the particulars. Dr. Savllle was called and made an ex amination ot the child's Injuries. Ho cold she had been assaulted , but said as the child was of very strong constitution she would In all llkllhood recover from her Injuries. All the surrounding town have been notl flcd of the crime and to be on the look out for Chambers. Ho Is described as about 45 years of age , five feet In height , weight 140 pounds , gray mustache , bald headed , slightly stoop shouldered , black suit , sack coat , black soft hat. For the past few days I ho lias boon mMolilng with the local contin gent of the Inflmtflnl army. Crane has two children , one n daughter who Is a nursW Ifl an innano asylum , but where ho did rat- know , and n. ton whom ho hag not heard from for sonic time. At 1 o'clock l.thln morning the house of Loula Crane WM t st aflrc It Is supposed by friends of the Mr ! who WAS assaulted. All the furnlturo * a * destroyed , but the house was not much i damaged.

Ills sister heard that he had followed Lcmcn Uros , ' circus to South Omaha and the young lady arrived hero last evening In the hope of finding her brother and Inducing htm to return to his family. Captain Van Wle ac companied Miss Klnney to the circus grounds , but the man who employs the men said no such person was with the show. Ono of the canvnamen later on told an of ficer Klnney was with Hie circus and his sister will not give up until she locates the runaway brother. A Hrnoo of HiiH | ct ( . The police arrested two suspicious charac ters yesterday giving the names of Robert Smith and William McKee. Hotli men claim to hall from San Francisco.

Eflle Mitchell , a girl 12 years of age , Is reported as having run away from her homo In Albright. More or less complaints have come to the police from the Mitchell family.

Al Hunter Wishes to have it distinctly understood that he was not ono of the Hunters who mixed up In the baseball scrap last Sunday. Dan Condon also states that he was merely a spectator and took no part in the mclce. James Donnelly Is under arrest at Lexing ton , Neb. charged with larceny. He told the sheriff bo was In jail In South Omaha on .the night tbe alleged robbery 'took place , and iChlef Brennari was asked to verify Donnelly's statement.

Yesterday morning about 7 o'clock Barbara Zarobskl , .a 13-year-old girl , was run down by a B. & M. switch engine at Fifth and Pierce streets and killed. v From statements of eye witnesses It seems that the girl had just crossed the bridge over Pierce street and was walking on the track. The switch engine came rushing around the curve and struck the girl before she had time to go * out of the way. Engineer Fred Miller reversed his engine as soon as he saw the girl but he could not stop soon enough. The remains were removed to the morgue , where an Inquest will bo held. The girl was nearly cut to pieces. Her left hand was torn off , her skull and forehead - head crushed , teeth knocked out and the right arm and leg broken. THK IIEALTI MAKKIT.
