assistant secretary of state , In refusing to
Issue a passport to him , although ho has been
voting hero a number of years on papers
granted by Judge Larramore , In the court of
common pleas , February 21 , 1871. Mr. Ulil'a
nil'me ' was to the effect that the
papers were worthless , on the ground
that the qualification of tlve years
continuous residence has not been
compiled with. Mr. Uhl's decision , Mr.
Hocsa says , prevents him ( rom visiting Great
Hrltaln , where he had lecture- contracts , nnd
compelled his return to this country from the
continent of Europe Before going to Europe
In Jlay he applied for the passports In the
regular manner , and did not discover ho had
been refused until his -wife wrote to him on
the other side of the water. In his com
plaint to Mr Cleveland , he Inquires whether
.Mr I'M ' is an Englishman , on Orangeman era
a member of the A. P. A. He gives an ac
count of his application , for bis first papers ,
of bis arrest and Incarceration In English
prisons up to January. 1871 , and says that
upon his return to America Justice I.arra-
more Issued the second papers by virtue of
the constitutional clause , uhlch says : Five
years consecutive residence holds good for
the man who has taken out bis first papers
and leaves the country with the Intention ot
returning , but who is detained In a manner
that makes it impossible for him to return ,
anil who returns as soon as bo can , Ilossa
wants to vote at the coming election , and

INDIANAPOLIS , Oct. 22. The first gen
eral report nnd account current of Jamea A.
Falley , as permanent receiver of the Order
of the Iron Hall , was filed In tlio superior
court this morning. The general statement
of the receiver Is very Ions Judge Winters
mado. an order directing that the report
and accompanying documents be referred to
John II. Holllday and George C. Hltt. a :
commissioners , to report as to the- method
and accuracy of accounting The filing of
this report Is the first step of several that
will be taken Immediately by Judge Winters
to wind up the affairs of the trust. Judge
Winters says that wltlilu the next ten days
the receivership will be practically wound
up There remains In litlgatloa only two
phases of the trust. One Is theUfa division
and the other U the payment of mature , !
certificates that were unpaid when the re
ceiver was appointed. To meet these claims
$300,000 will be held. A great portion ol
the remaining balance In the hands of the
receiver , probably J2JO.OOO , will be held to
protect unperCected claims. Of these there
are 1,000 , and the receiver is now receiving
evidence to perfect the claims.
The receiver's report covers the ( line from
the date ot his final report as temporary
receiver December 2 , 1S93. to October 10 ,
1894 , Inclusive. The receiver la charged with
$715,777 , which came from the temporary
receivership. Since that time he has
charged himself with moneys received t *
the amount of (007,128 , which made the
receiver chargeable wiUi $ lG22,70fi. , The
receiver reports credits by his disburse
ments under schedules from " 11" to " 0. "
Including the three dividends exclusive ol
outstanding checks of $ $70,72 $ . leaving a
balance on hand ot $742.977. There were
also outstanding dividend checks , not returned
turned , which would be paid from the balance
anco on hand , which would reduce the bit
ance In the sum of $52,194. The assets of
the various branches and not converted into
cash and amounts retained are alto shown.
The receiver believes nothing can be realized
from these assets , which his statement
showed to be $108,060. The receiver then
filed detailed statements ot the conduct ol
the litigation and procedure with the busi
ness ot the tmst In the different states
where receiverships were Instituted. Th&
receiver reported the balancs on hand on
deposit as $712,877. Schedule "B" In th&
receiver's report Is an Itemized account ol

follows : "Colonel Colt , Fourteenth Infan
try My Dear Colonel : It goes without
Haying , or ought to at least , that I , who
ones commanded the National guard ot
Ohio , have not lost my Interest Iti that
noble body ot citizen soldiers.
"This Interest prompts me to write you
today and congratulate you and the men
under your command on your and their
magnificent behavior at Washington Court
House.
"The Fourteenth regiment has for many
years been th& right rm for strength of
the executive department of Ohio. If that
regiment could have reached Cincinnati two
hours earlier It would have saved the beauti
ful court house ot Hamilton rounty from the
destruction by ( lames which ovens helmed It ,
and under j-our command It has saved Fay-
ette county from the horrible disgrace of
mob rule overcoming law and order by brute
force.
"I congratulate Oovernor McKlnloy and
you and the men under your command on the
outcome of the work at Washington Courl
House. Of Course. It was u great pity that
Ufa was taken and perhaps It may prove , as
Is often the case under surh circumstances ,
that the wrong men wcro killed , but mobs
can not be supressed without hurting some
body. People who happen to be present
In a mob take upon tlipmnehes their posi
tion and can not bo avoided , but there Is
but one way to suppress a mob Napoleon
Bonaparte taught this long ago and you
executed the painful duty , it Bt-ms to me
from what I have read , with the maximum ol

KEARNEY. Neb. , Oct. 21. K. Rose ater
ndltor Omaha Ilee : Dear Sir I have rea (
your speech , made to the huHluens men o
Omaha on Wednesday evening- last and pub
llshed In the Dee ot Saturday morning. In
It there Is much for thoughtful men to con
sliler. Ono of the minor things In it is a
reference to myself , In which you nay "Judgi
Holcomb was elected In n dIMrlct , in whlcl
he Is now Judge , by th ? republicans. The
district was largely republican when he wai
elected. The candidate for judge in tha
district on the republican ticket , Mr. Hamer
announced that ho was not going to enforci
the foreclosure laws , and the republican
turned him down and elected Holcomb , am
Holcomb has done hl duty and enforced tli
laws regardless ot whatever the cense
qiienc.'s might be. ( Great applause ) "
U Is not my purpose to criticise Judge Hoi
ccmb. Ho is a conscientious gentleman an
a good judge I only desire to correct tw
( also Impressions that the above paragrapl
Is likely to make In your very wide circle o
readers. First , I never at any time re
fused to enforce the foreclosure laws. Nc
person entitled to a decree of foreclosure
who demanded It. was ever refuaed while
was Judge. Objection wan made to the con
( lunation of some mortgage sale * . I foun
that improved farms of ICO acres eaoh. worth
In ordinary times , from Jl.COO to 12.600 , wtn
being sold for from MOO to J600 each. Th >
appraisers seemed to be selected by the nhcr
Iff In the Interest of the creditor. The law
provided that sales should nut tx > con fir me
u.ik-i3 thD land brought I wo-thirds of Its ap
.iralsed value , but the creditor , by manlpulat
Ing the sheriff , could control the appraise
nunt so that the amount ot his claim woui
always cover the two-thirds , When it cam
to confirming the sale , and turning the owne
out of his home , when the property ha (
brought lets , In many Instances , than one
f.until o { its actual value , X ( edited to g
further and set the sale aside , I could
do no less under my oath. I held tlmt ap
praised value was Intended to mean actual
value. I quote from what I then said on
the subject : "I believe that the people of
Nebraska mean to pay their debts. I believe
that Nebraska farms are sufficient security
for the indebtedness against them. 1 believe
that Inability of the farmer to pay Ills debts ,
caused by crop failure , should be treated ; IH
a misfortune , and not as a crime I believe
the fanner's home should not be .sold and
sacrificed at a time of great temporary de
pression to pay the mortgage on It. When
a railway or other large corporation become *
Innnelally embarrassed , the court puts the
business of the corporation In the hands of
a receiver , and the receiver Is dliocted to
apply the receipts in payment of the Indebt
edness which Is In default. If that I * paid.
: he business of the corporation Is redellvereJ
lo the stockholders. If the receiver Is una-
lilo to do this the property Is sold , but surli
sales ilo not usually take place for a year or
two after the commencement of the proceed
Ings , nml the court exorcises u wholesome
discretion , adjourns the sale from time to
time , so that 11 fair price may be obtained ,
and gives every reasonable facility to the
stockholders tu obtain a fair value for their
property , and to avoid Its sacrifice. I believe
the mortgagor , who Is struggling- procure
food and clothing for the wife and little ones ,
and to maintain a roof over them , should be
treated as fairly , and with as much consid
eration , as the corporations. If his land will
not sell for two-thirds of its actual value , ns
the law Intends , the- sale should bo continue
urtll It will. Second , the dlbtrict was not
"largely republican. " It consisted of Iliif.
fnlo , Custor , Dawson and Sherman counties.
The election was held on the 3rd of Novem
ber , 1891. Judge Post , the republican can-
dldato for supreme judge , received 4.168 voles
In these four counties , and J.V. . Rdgorton
,003. K. O. Hamer , republican candidate
for district Judge , receive * 4,933 votes , ani
S _ . A. Holcomb , people's Independent , C.OOfl
Iserton's majority over Post. 895 ; llol-
coml > 's majority over Hamer , 13. I think It
Is fair to presume tlmt I received the sup
port of republicans generally , ns the abstract
of votes cast shows that K. ( J. Hanur re
col veil S25 votes more than the head of the
ticket. Still. ] am willing to admit that some
of the mortgage companies , and others simi
larly Interested , worked against me. One
of these gentlemen has since purchased bov-
enty farina at foreclosure sales. The year
before , 1SJO , George W. K. Dorbey , the re
publican candldato for congress , received in
these four countlrs , 3,9bC votes , while O , M
Kem received 0,843 votes. Kern's majority
over Dorsey , 2,857. The year after , 1893
Crounse received In these four counties
4,681 votes , G. II. Van Wyck received B.rl8
votes. Van Wyck'e majority over Crounse
867. At the same time J. Sterling Morton
received 1,531 , votes. If wo add the demo
cratlo and populist votes of 1&92 , we wll
And a majority In the district against the
republicans of 2.398. Coming to last year
we. find that Judge Harrison received In
these four counties 4.200 votes , while Judgi
Holcomb received 6,170 , or a majority eve :
Harrison of 1,970. From these figures , whlcl
you can easily verify by examining tli
printed abstracts of votes cast at the oevera
elections , you will BOO that the district ha
been populist Bin * the year 1&90 , and generally
ally largely so. Your statement was , in
doubt , made In the lu-nt of discussion , and
presume you will be milte ns ready to cor
rt-ct It by giving1 this a place In your column
as you were In the first place to make It
