FREDERICK DREXEL DEAD.
Still Aiuillirr of OumlmV Pioneer * 1'nsio
AMII.V Sketch of 111 * I.lfr.
Frederick Drexel died yesterday afternoon
at1 o'clock ' , at hln residence at Tenth and
WlltlamK streets. The direct cause of his
death was n blood complaint , but the real
reason waa that he 'was worn out by the
busy working life that he hud led. It he had
lived four days longer he would have been
C9 years old. He leaves a wife and eight
children.
Mr. Drexel WHS born In Wertcmburg , Ger
many , In 1825. He there learned his trade ,
stone cutting. In 1S47 ho csune to America
and nettled at Heading , I'A. He worked at
his trade Micro for five or six years and then
removed to Maryland , and Inter to Virginia.
At that time the Baltimore & . Ohio railroad
was building. Mr. Dn > xcl became a railroad
contractor and took part In the construction
of the road. Ho formed < t partnership with
the father of Judge ilcGee of Council 13luffs ,
who IIUH been dead for Home years , In 1856
ho removed to the west and settled In Omaha.
lie decided to engage In farming nnd bought
the grnuml upon which South Omaha now
stands. The first domicile was built at
Twonty-flfth and N streets , and was a log
house , there bolng no lumber In the country
nt thai time. Later lie bnllt n residence on
the site where the Kxclianne building now
stands. In connection with his funning ho
also look care of the stone cutting and build
ing that the new country required. In 1894 ,
'Alien the packing house * \\erc started , Mr.
Drexel sold hit * land and removed to Omaha.
He bought property at Tenth and Williams ,
nnd erected a residence.
Mr. Drexcl was n member of the Drexel
Stone company , which was started In 18G9 ,
the other member , of which was his eon ,
Henry He was a member of the Builders
nnd Traders exchange. Tie was a Lutheran ,
and wan a' member of the Kountze Memorial
church. Although never actively connected
with politics he served as a member of the
eleventh icsslon of the legislature in 1863.
In 387U hi was elected county commissioner
for tins 101111 ty. was re-elected in 1879 nnd
refused to run for a third term. He was the
father of the court house and by bis exer
tions It was dually constructed ,
Mr Dre.vel had sixteen children , all but
three of whom were born In this county and
eight of whom ore living , Those are George
Drexcl , u farmer near iik City , Nob. ; John
C. Drexcl. chprlff of this county ; Henry
Drexcl , n member of the Drexel Stone com
pany ; Herman Drexel. a bookkeeper In the
city comptroller's olUce ; A. It. Drexel , a
Brocer of this city ; Frank Drexel , a boy of ID
years of age ; Mrs. John II , Hartc. whose
husband It a contractor here , and Mrs. II ,
O. Harte , the wife of the vice president of
the William llayward Shoe company.
Mr. Drexel was one of the pioneers of the
state , being one of the llr.it to Bottle in the
county , and who probably did as much as
any other min to build it up , He was * n
plain , unpretentious man , who avoided notoriety
riety of every kind. Ills predominating
characteristic was his stern honesty , which
gained htm a multitude of friends. He was
not known to have bad an enemy. He was
an exceedingly hard working man and this
fact has probably shortened Ma life con
siderably. His friends , attracted as they
were , by his uncompromising principles are
sincere mourners at thla time.
The arrangements for the * funeral have not
yet been decided upon. The funeral will
probably tuln > place Saturday and the Inter
ment will be in Prospect Hill cemetery ( n
the family lot. It has not been decided
whether the funeral will b held at the resi
dence or Kountze Memorial church.

Says M. W. Selby , Mtincle , III. : "Last
summer a coal miner came to my drug store
one night , half dead with cramps. There
was no doctor to be had. He asked me If
I had anything that would help him. I
opened n bottle of Chamberlain's Colic , Choi-
era nnd Diarrhoea Remedy and gave him a
largo dose. In twenty minutes his pain was
all gone. This man had been subject to
cramps , but has not been troubled since. "
Every family should keep this remedy at
hand for use In such cases. It can always be
depended upon. For sale by druggists.

Pea mum. a messenger boy.as bringing a

He then went back to look for it and was told
by a party that tlie latter had seen a man

late- hour last evening no further trace of the

My boy was taken with n diseaseresem

of was Chamberlain's Colic , Cholera and Di

the matter and cured Itlm sound and well. I
heartily recommend this remedy to all per

to even up matters , und when the segrega
tion of the Overland Hyptem vvn.s imminent
the Oregon Hallway ami .Navigation company
Maa almost first lit the Held to ask for a
s parnte receiver and thut receiver Major
MoNclll. Since his appointment he has
harassed the receivers of the Union I'.iolflc
and has even gone so far as to make u close
traffic agreement \\itli the. Great Northern ,
totally Ignoring the Union I'.iclfic. This
action necessarily caused still greater fric
tion between the two comi-inilea und Mc.Vell !
capped the climax by d maiullng a larger
proportion of divisions for business which
the Union Pacific gave the Oregon Hallway
and Navigation company a ( IIuntliiRton. So
out of all proportion were the demands that
the receivers of the Union Puclllo refus il

consultation with Northern Pacific officials at
St. Paul with view of making tariff ar-
ringements with the Northern Pacific people
to Interchange business ul. Butte for North

gen company a rim for Itw life. And then ;
seems no gaod reason why this agreement
cannot bo brought about , as It will give the
Northern Pacific a new feeder , anil admit
lo territory that up until now has been a
sealed book to it. The distance Is about the
same via the Northern Pacific to Pacific
coast points as the Oregon Hallway & Xavl-
gallon company , and should the agreement
bo completed , Jlr. McNelll will recognize
tl.at he Is not the only man in the railroad
business ,
The agreanient between the Union Paclllc
and Northern Pacific can In no wise Inter
fere with the Uurllngtoii agreement , as the
dlstanco between lll'lines ' and llutte is
nearly 300 miles , and will give the Northern

under existing agreements has never gone to

CHICAGO , Oct. 3. Chairman Caldwcll of

sued a call for the meeting of HID advisory
committee of the .emigrant clearing hoiiic
to meet on Monday next , to consider tome
questions which must be settled by the
meeting ; of the association which Is to be
held on Tuesday. It was declared In some
quarters today and denied In others that
one of the tilings to be considered at the
meeting will be the abo'lllon of the associa
tion Itself. The only leason advanced for
the proposed abolishment Is that It Is in a
measure preventing the removal of some
of thu causes of the demoralization in trans
continental and trauemlasourl rates. With
the association out of the way , at least
temporarily. It Is argued that tlie western
business , which has been In a state of chaos
for BQ long , can bs patched up. Other lines
than those lio'.dlngthis vl-ew of tlie situation
think that the time for tlu arrangement
of the transcontinental and URiismtesourl
business has not yet arrived , and that there
Is a necessity for the longer continuance
of I he association. * The latter InfUtenco Is
undoubtedly Uio- strongest , and there Is
little doubt that the association will be
continued , although It may In u measure
be reorganized to permit of the settlement
of HID western business.
