At 7 o'clock on Thursday evening J. P.
Hi-is , Jr. , drove a fine young family horse
attached to a new $200 phaeton up liroad-
way ar.d hitched the rig In front of Davis'
drug store while he went Into a barber hoj :
to get shaved. When he returned only the
halter , unsnapped and hanging to the post ,
was left of his J350 outllt. He promptly
notified the police , but up to last night nc
trace of the rig or the thief had been tils-
covend. No one saw the fellow unhltcti
the rig and drive away , although the Btreel
was crowded with people at the tlrac. Mr
Hess , however , Is able to give an cxcellenl
description of the supposed thief. He hai
scarcely been seated In the barber's chali
In the shop , which Is located In a babemcnt
when a fellow came down In a great burr )
to have , , bis hair cut. There was only om
barber fn the shop and he was occuplei
with Hess. The fellow eyed Hess a momeii
and then made a hasty exit. Ills mannc :
attracted the attention of the barber as wel
as Mr. Hess , and the former stepped to thi
door and saw him step off the sidewalk b ;
the phaeton. The belief Is that , not belm
ubls to see Into the shop from the street h
only came down to see II the driver ol th
phaelou was In the chair , aid finding th
situation favorable , lost no time In gcttlni
away with the rig. He was a tall , slln

Mr. Frank Henutson of Ilennlson Rros. has
returned from a two weeks' stay In New
York City. He put In ths greater part of
hU time while there at the big Importing
and Jobbing houses and witnessed the re
ceiving of the first Importations ) of fine dress
goods and woolens under the new tariff law.
The great French and German manufacturers
had prepared for the event and rushed
millions of their finest goods across the
waters. Importers were fairly burled under
the avalanche , and as there was a scarcity
of buyers on the market prices went far
below 'what was anticipated , and the lowest
price dress goods ever sold for In the United
States was touched. The tariff reductions
range from 40 to SO par cent , and the crush
of Importations forced the market away
below the readjusted prices , less the tariff
reductions. Mr. Uennlson yielded readily to
the temptation to buy , and he bought heav
ily for spot cash , getting the cream ot the
cargoes. His purchases included all of the
finest and newest products of European
looms In El Iks and woolens ( or autumn
wear , goods that never could be profitably
put upon this market before. They were
shipped to Council Bluffs by through time
freight and began to arrive yesterday , when
sixty-one cases were received. Fifty-four
cascj will get In today. These are now In
IlennlFOn's basement , being unpacked and
inaikcd ready for sole on Monday. On Mon
day Ilennlsons have arranged for a display
of these goods , and the ladles of Council
Uluffs will have the first opportunity to ex
amine and buy the finest dress goods madt
In this world. The prices will be as great o
surprise as the goods , reaching as much at
SOc a yard less than last season's prices
Ladles can see the goods today or tomorrow
and make their selections In advance of th ;
big sale commencing Monday morning

Ct'MIlRRLAND ' , Md. , Spt. C. Great ex
citement was caused hero bythe discovery
ot a death from what Is eusrlectcd to have
bten sporadic or Asiatic cholera among Im
migrants from Urrnicn cnr/mle / to Pitts-
burjj. The man , John Peter Walther , when
ho reached here w.s so 111 lie'could ' not walk.
"Ho was removed from Iho' ' Irdln to the Im
migrant house and later to a pest house out
side ot the city limits. He1 lluided In New.
York Tuesday. Other Immigrants were sent
to Plttsburg In a closed car and the au
thorities notlllrd.
WASHINGTON , Sept. 6. A telegram was
received today by Surgen General Wynun
ot the Marine hospital service from Or.
Duke , health ofllccr ot Cumberland , Mil. ,
announcing the death there last night of
John P. Walther , u German Immigrant , with
symptoms ak.n to Astatic cholera. Dr.
Wyman wired Iho officer to Hold a postmor-
tcin and report the results. Ur. Wyman
said : "I do net believe that this man
died ot Asiatic cholera. There Is now no
cholera In Bremen , the port from which he
U said to liavs come , and has been none ,
There has bitn no disease found on the
other men from the Kibe now detained at
Plttsburg , being held for further develop
ments. "
"What Is the situation w.th regard to the
disease In Europe ? " wta asked.
"U la rather on the Increase In Russia
and Is getting over Into western Europe ,
but 83 far has been ecu fined to the mnst
coutheru portions of that coast and U most
prevalent In Auslro-llungary. This has
kept It away from the ports whence the
Immigrants came to these shores , and as
there Is a rigid consular Inspection on that
side , as well us n most thorough quarantine
service en th. ? , side , I am absolutely cer
tain that no cni'e of cholera has got Into
America this year. There have been two
cases caught at ipjarnnttne , but th < > y have
not amounted to anything. It will be
practically Impossible for the epidemic to
get In unless there Is a relaxation of vigi
lance en the part of health officers and con
suls. By the 1st cf September we were
practically over the worst of the pdnc : , and
It looks as though the great danger of con
tagion Is past. "
NEW YORK , Sept. C. Nothing Is known
at quarantine relative to the supposed cjses
of cholera at Cumberland , Md. The steamer
Elbe arrived during Monday night , and early
Tuesday morning the steerage passengers
were nil c refully Inspected and found well.
Captain Von Qoessel and the ship's sur
geon made no report of any sickness during
the voyage.
The emigrant car from which a suspected
victim was taken Is now sidetracked at
Shaucrs station , a few miles from Plttsbttrg
on the Baltimore & Ohio. Nine emigrants
are confined In the car. Dr. J. G. Me-
Candlcss , member cf the State Uonrll ol
Health , and Health Officer Baker examined
the suspects today. They think the man
who OlcJ was suffering from cholera mor-
bus or cholerine. To avoid any risks , how
ever , the car will bo Vcpt in quarantine for
another twenty-four hours at least.
NEW YORK , Sept. C. Gustavo Schwab ,
agent for the North German Lloyd Steam
ship company , on whose steamer , the Elbe.
John P. Walther , who died at Cumberland ,
Md. , of supposed Asiatic chole'ra. waa a pas
senger , scouts the Idea that Walther was
a victim of that disease.
"Had It been Asiatic cholera , " said he.
"the disease would have rnatle Its app.arance
long before. The period of Incubation Is iel-
dom more than six days , ami BO either
WaUlicr or the person from whom be con-
tructed the disease should have developed on
the steamer. "

The police force , has been reduced again
and the town Is filled with crooks and
thieves. It is a wonder that so few cases of
larceny are reported , as It Is Impossible for
the officers to cover the city and do It prop
erly. Nearly every day a residence Is broken
Into and more or less valuables carried away.
Wednesday evening the residence or R. 11.
Buckard at Twenty-Iifth and F Street
was entered ' by thieves. A watch ,
revolver and razor were the only
articles , missed. A neighbor fright
ened thieves away from the residence
of Rev. Wheeler. Mr. Wheeler and hla wife
are out of the city and two men were trying
to pry open a back window when discovered.
The same old complaint comes from the
business men and citizens that there Is never
an officer at the police station at night. Re
peated efforts have been made to have a
Jailer at the station at night , but the force
Is so small that the Jailer Ins to also cover a
beat. The telephone rings a dozen or more
times every night but there Is no officer
there to attend to It. Chlet nrennan Is a
splendid officer and works about eighteen
hours a day to keep matters in shape , but
he hasn't got half enough policemen to cover
the city properly.
