JUDGE RESCINDS HIS ORDER
Jury in the Cr'minal Oonrt 5s Not to Eo
Given a HCCJSS.
"WHOLE BATCH OF CASES" IS ON HAND
Ueuch Hodden that It Will Not lie n Unite
ul Time lo I'rucecil In Hie IlUpoanl
of 1'lfljr Coinpliilnts-DoiiRlni
fur Itiirglnry on Trial.
The Judge of the criminal section of the dls-
/rlct court was In a fitful frame ot nilnd Mon
day afternoon nnd said that he would try
no more criminal cases this wotk. He con
sidered his time too valuable , he said , to wait
until a batch of cases had been prepared for
Mm. At that time there was no criminal
case ready for trial , as the man whose case
was set down surprised the state by pleading
guilty at the eleventh hour.
The morning hours had been occupied In
proving a case against J. U. 13111s , the man
who ran oft to Kansas with Gustavo Ander
son's Knight Templar outfit. The case was
given to the jury at 1 o'clock and the Jury ,
after swallowing a hasty dinner , returned at
2 o'clock with a verdict of guilty. Thereupon
the county attorney called up the cass charg
ing nicliartl Hlce with burglary. He had been
previously arraigned and denied all knowl dgc
of tie ! crime , but when he taw a box full ot
Jurors waiting to Investigate his misdeeds , re <
tenting , he pleaded guilty. This left the state
without any can ? for the afternoon and when
the Judge of the criminal court ascertained
this to bo n fact he flew Into a pass'.on.
"I don't propose to Bit hero and waste anytime
time/ ' said the court as ho ralseJ and lowered
himself In his seat , unabU to control his pas
slon. "I shall dismiss this jury until Monday
morning. "
The county attorney tried to explain the sit
uation and tolil the court that he had set two
cases for trial that morning , In one of which
seven witnesses had been subpoenaed and'In
which It was supposzd the defense had as
many more. The defense , however , failed U
make any showing and the prisoner pica Jet
guilty ,
"You should have a whole batch of cases
ret for trial , eo that If one goes off you wll
have two or tlit\e to fall back on , " snappei
the court.
The county attorney replied that he liai
thus far kept the court busy by only having
a reasonable number of cases on call and dk
not propose to subpoena thirty or forty wit
nesses In different cases and compel the
county to pay their fees while dancing at
tendance on the court. Ho Informed the
court that he would have three cases set for
trial yesterday , and if the court failed to
put In appearance It would be at his own
responsibility ho kept the Jury waiting.
When the court cpcntd at D:30 : yesterday
the JuclgB was again upon the bench , having
rescind.d his order discharging the Jury from
attendance on his court. The docket was
called and It was developed that fifty crlm'na '
cusca remained for trial. In some dozen o
which the state expected pleas of guilty.
Judg Scott said he would try id F. More
arty's case for forgery and It was set for an
early date , an was also Adam Snyder's casi
for embezzlement. Morearty made s
showing last term that Judge Scott was prtju
diced and Judge Blair took the case- .
Th ? burglary charge against Henry Douglas
an old case , was dismissed ; also the charge
against Joe I'etcrstn for larceny. He had
lied the country. The larceny cases ngalns
Thomas Flood nnd others of South Omaha
over a pair of old shoes was dismissed. Th
trial of Ed Tuttle for assault was b-gun.
lroui ! o AnfteKH < > r railed to .Sivuur. ,
Before Judge Ambrose the suit of H. J
Twlntlng against J. II. Flnlay and other
has been on trial. Twlntlng seeks to fore
ft" close tax liens to the nmount-of { 010 upon
7. block S3 , In the original' townslte o
Omaha. The defendants are endeavoring t
show that the assessor In the year 1890 , In
the Fourth ward , failed to swear to his re
turns and Unit this Invalidated the as
Bossnunt. Twlntlng contends that this 1
merely n clerical error and he should havi
hla money. Part of the taxes , It appears
which TMntlng bought had been In reality
paid. _
County "Inn Out the Utzlit.
The county has been made a defendant t
n suit for $3,000 damages. Kllen Do Lan
brings the suit. About a year ago th
county did some grading In Florence on th
east and west road along the public square
No appraisers to ascertain what the benefit
would be were c\er appointed , The De
Lands lived In a small house fronting sout
on the square , where they had lived fo
twenty-seven years. The lining done i
front of them , It Is claimed , made the cella
damp nnd shut out their view so that th
family had to move.

After fifty hours of deliberation the juror
In the HetzcBennctt replevin suit stoo
C to G jtfd announced to Judge Keysor thel
Inability to agree , whereupon they wer
discharged. This completes the fifth trla
of the case.

AMALGAMATED ASSOCIATION CONVENTION
Union of Iron null bt kAVorkora Stronger
Tluin lvor Ilof TCj uul Important
Action Ii Elprctcd to llo
Tnkrn
CLEVELAND , May 21. The twe'fth annual
convention of the Amalgamated Association
of Iron nnd Steel Workers of America was
called to order In Memorial hall by President
Garland this morning with about 100 dele
gates present. A number of delegates had
not arrived when the meeting cameto order ,
but It Is probable that at least 250 will be In
attendance by tomorrow. According to the
program prepared , the morning session waste
to have been an open one , with addresses of
welcome by Mayor McKlsson and J. H. Hoyt.
Owing , however , to various reasons , the
public meeting was postponed until afternoon
and ho convention immediately went Into
executive session.
The general sentiment which apparently
prevails among the delegates Is that this con
vention will be the most Important In the
history of the organization.
"The association , " said Secretary Kllgallon ,
"was never In such a good poslllqn to hold a
convention. While the convention In point
of attendance will bo weak In numbers , the
strength of the association ns represented was
never so strong. Heretofore there have been
dissensions among some classes of the trade
represented. This dissension was attributable
largely to several classes of the trade not
being adequately represented. This year the
situation Is entirely changed. The associa
tion has gained In strength nnd has extended
to every branch of Iron nnd steel workers.
As I said , the attendance from a numerical
standpoint will be weak. It could hardly be
otherwise. During the hard times the lodges
have expended a great deal more money than
they took In , and many of them are consequently
quently hard up.
"However , the delegates have come fully
prepared to carry on nn aggressive conven
tion. They have all studied the situation
thoroughly nnd could not have had better
opportunity to become acquainted with all
sides of the situation than during the re
cent depression and subsequent revival of
business. The scale wage is being printed In
Plttsburg and Is expected to arrive tomorrow.
The revival of trade will hnvo a tendency to
make this convention the most Important ever
held and the most successful. "
President Garland reiterated In substance
the statement of the secretary. All of the
delegates are free In expressing themselves
that the business before the convention Is of
more than ordinary Importance. The feeling
that there will be some radical changes
made In the wage scale appears to be ap
parent. The delegates are reticent and will
not commit themselves in any manner.
President Garland was shown a dlspatcli
from Plttsburg stating that a new organiza
tion was about to be formed In that city whlc'i
would be Independent of the Amalgamated
association.
'I do nbt believe there Is anything In It , "
he said , ' 'and If a union of any kjnd Is con
templated In those mills , I think it Is merely
a preliminary step to get n foothold In the
Amalgamated association. If they feel that
they must receive wages they recognize
us as the leading spirit among iron and steel
workers nnd consequently will naturally be
glad to Join us. We can't blame the men
because they desire union wages. They are
working on a scale which Is considerably
below the Amalgamated scale and there Is
a possibility-of their evincing a disposition
to form a union. " . ,

EFFECT OF THE DECISION.
Collector North Kvplnlni Whnt It Mc.ins to
ThlH District.
Collector North of the United States rev
enue office said yestcrdiy that the recent deci
sion of the' ' supreme court with relation to the
Incomo'tax ' law would not particularly de
moralize the Internal revenue receipts of this
district , so the total lecelpts In this respect
would not be over $75,000. It would necessi

as he had not Increased the working strength
of his department much In view ot anticipated
reversal of the law by the courts. Relative
to the action of the supreme court ho had
no comment to make.

Canary & Ledercr's big extravaganza and
topical review , "The Passing Show , " with
the orlg'nal Na.v York Casino and Chic'go
operi house1 cist , will be the attraction at
Boyd's theater on this and tomorrow even-
Ings. The manag.ment of "The Passing
Show" claim that It Is something new under
the sun , nnd their statement cannot very well
bo dlrputed , 'as far ns the American pun
goes , for II Is undoubtedly a fact that the
line ot action adopted by the authors of the
book Is entirely dissimilar to anything that
has yet been seen In this country. Somewhat
similar /entertainments / have been given In
Paris for some years , so far as a review of
the reigning successful plays ot the time ore
concerned , but the Idea of the Introduction cf
clever specialties durinK the action of the
play Is nn Innovation. Mr. Ludtvlg EnglanJer
composed the original music.
A constant nnd various sour&J of enter
tainment are the musical vaudeville act
which Intersperse the other humorous situa
tions. Another Important subject Is'the
series of living pictures , which are humor
ous pubjects , and Intended as a burlesque of
the current craze. In the second act , little
Lucy Daly , who plays the soubrette part of
Weeblt , appears In bladt face , and with the
assistance of Canary & Lederer'e pickanin
nies , gives an Imitation of the southern darky
ns he appears on the Mississippi levees. Here
the lovers of the real buck and wing dancing
are used for 8'veral minutes.
Mlas Vernona Jarbeau , who has been fre
quently seen In this city as a star , plays a
very Important part In1 the piece. In the cast
will be , besides the above mentioned , John E.
Henshaw , George A. SfcJilller , William' Cam
eron. Seymour Hess. Gils Plxley , E. S. Tarr
and the Misses Madge. Lesslng , May Ten

"Within thirty days this stock must be

Tnvlng FlnUlipd HIM ! fight Over Corby
Mrcct U l.tuloil.
John Grant has completed the paving ot
Corby street , from Sherman avenue to Twen
tieth street , and now this has become one
of tbo most popular short thoroughfares In
the city , as the wearing surface Is ns level as
a table and as solid as a rock.
Last summer Corby street was a bone of con
tention for several months. Early In the sea
son a majority of the property owners peti
tioned for asphalt and then the brick men
appeared upon the scene. It was a fight to
n finish nnd It was not until winter that It
was settled that asphalt should constitute the
wearing surface upon the street.

A Dead Easy Job
A dead easy job for the "nd" irmn In this establishment. Nothing
to scheme , nothing to think. No sensational reports. No experiences
of slaughter houses. No pathetic reports of money-losing transactions ;
not oven report about sotno financial calamity , happened to some concern -
corn not on the planol. Nothing but sit down on the edge of gome
dry goods box nnd write up u few facts about something that lay before
him.
Hero are three different suits a day old rather a day old In this
store , each marked $10.00. Two of'em are 3-button cutaway baolc and
the one n straight cat sack.
The writer of this la partial to dark coloring. Perhaps It has some
intluenco when they're described as pretty patterns. However , we'll
agree to lot your optic judge. A black worsted , mixed with a tiny
thread of glossy silk , Is always a welcome pattern for neat and tasty
drcscors.
Precisely what they are : Silk mixed worsted , some mixed with
old gold color silk , some with pure white or cream. Matters little
what coloring of silk , but pure silk is what wo desire to call your atten
tion to.
Not a particle of doubt that you pay for a garment like It at least
$15.00. It is worth every fathing of It silk mixed worsted is a tailor's '
clotu , and wo wager that a suit of the same material , the same lining
find trimmings as ours , cannot be had In any of these slob-job-ready-
mado-tallor-shops for less thiin at least J25.00.
