" \Vo have come to the conclusion , " said
one of them yestciday , "that the soldiers are
not receiving their share of recognition from
the government they fought to preserve. Ths
Grand Army and Union Veteran league are
all right , but there arc hundreds of old sol
dlers who can't belong to either of them be
cause It costs too much.Ve don't expect
this will cost anything , and so there will be
nothing to hinder ns getting every soldier In
the country Into It. When any political
parly puts an old soldier's name on the
ticket , yon can bet that no will get the solid
soldier vote , and the party that doesn't give
the soldier what he wants will have to get
along without his vote. We don't expect to
demand the earth , but only what we think
rightfully belongs to us. "
It Is learned that similar movements are
on foot In many of the cities of the land ,
and that they all emanate from one source.

to unite the soldiers of the whole country
Into a band tha' will light as courageously

Ji-rry Slmi Arrested.
Jerry M. Shea was arrested yesterday
morning and charged with being a fugitive
from Just'cB. The message upon which the
arrest was made came from the Omaha
authorities , and was to the effect that Shea
had passed two bogus checks , one for $8
and the other for $12 , the latter upon Wil
liam F. Garrlty , a wholesale liquor dealer ,
at the corner of Tenth street and Capitol
avfnuo In Omaha. Ills own name was
signed to both checks , and were drawn upon
the First National and Council Bluffs Savings
banks , In neither o ! which ' he had any de
posit. Ho was detained a't the city Jail until
0 o'clock In the evening , although no warrant
WPS shown.
Early In the evening a telephone message
WHS received from the Omaha officials stating
that It had been discovered that there was
no way of compelling him to go to Ne
braska , for the amount ot money aliened to
have icon secured was not largo enough to
constitute grand lurceny. He was accoyl-
Ingly released , but no sooner had hg set foot
outside of the Jail than ho wqs again picked
up , this time on an information tiled by H.
V. Innes , charging him with cheating by
false pretenses.
The Information alleged that on March
31 ho went to the auditor's ofilca nnd repre
sented to R. V. Innes , l e deputy county
auditor , tliat he held the assignment of a
claim of $29 owned by S. I1. MacConnell ,
against the county. On the strength of the
representations , which seemed to be properly
vouched for In writing , the claims were
bought by Innes and the money turned over
to Shea. It was afterward learned , the In-
formatldli says , that ho did not hold the
ass'gnment. Shea was released on a bond of
$200 to await his hearing Juno 24.

the hope of reimbursing the county for what
ha * been expending to keep the family

WASHINGTON. Juno 18. No progress in
ho negotiations between the United States
nil Great Britain touching the submission
o arbitration of the Venezuelan boundary
matter can be recorded since the reply made
iy the British foreign office to Ambassador
Bayard's representations last January , to
which reference was made In Parliament
yesterday by Sir Edward Grey , the parlia
mentary secretary for foreign affairs. Mr.
Bayard went as far as his Instructions from
Secretary Gresham would permit In urging
ho British government to arbitrate the dlf-
erences between Itself and Venezuela , but
ho British answer politely but firmly set
.he cos'e Just where It had stood for the
past _ five years , which amounted to a decllna-
lon to yield to Mr. Bayard's proposition ,
t offered to arbitrate the title to the coun
try west of the modified Schomberg line , but
ivould admit no question of the British title
: o the vast territory lying east of tlmt line.
Secretary Greuham had liad this very claim
n mind when ho wrote to Mr. Bayard , as
follows : "I cannot believe her majesty's
government will maintain that the validity
of their claims , long In dispute between the
two countries , shall be conceded as a condi
tion precedent to the arbitration of the
niestlon whether Venezuela Is entitled to
other territory which , until a very recent
period , was never In doubt. Our
nterest In the question has rcpeatelly
been shown by our friendly efforts to further
a settlement alike honorable to both coun
tries , and the president Is pleased to know
Venezuela will soon renew her efforts to
bring about such an adjustment. It is not
doubted that you will discreetly exert your
nfluence In favor of some plan of honorable
settlement. "
Now , from the answer returned to Mr. Bay
ard by the British government it appears
that It Ignored all that Secretary Greshnm
had to.say touching the claim of Venezuela
to other tracts lying closer to British Guiana
that It was not content even to stand on the
original Schomberg line as , the whole of the
British claim , but would submit to arbitration
only the stretch of territory running down to
the mouth of the Orinoco and embracing the
rich mining country ot the Yuruarl as far as
Quaclpatl , which It had Included in ts ! > claims
without notice , and , suddenly , by what Sec
retary Gresham described ns a "comprehen
slve sweep" made In 18S7 , apalnst which
Mr. Bayard himself , then secretary of state
protested In formal Instructions senttoUnltei
States Minister Phelps. So the matter rests
Just where It did five years ago , and It Is
doubtful If anything further will be at
tempted by the State department In the absence
senco of come Instructions from congress a
Its next session.

for proficiency Jn stu 'es. In advancement Vim
In deportment. The little nudltorum of th
academy presented a perfect picture , all th
girls of .the school being gowned In white
the little ones having a small space In th
c"enter of the hall devoted to themselves , whll
the larger girls and graduates of other day
were ranged In lines up and down the eas
room , facing the stage. None but the clergj
of the diocese were admitted , the pupils tak
Ing their well won laurels without so muc !
as a single member of their families belnp
piesent to participate In the Joy of tha occa

years throughout the schols of the Sacred
Heart , the teachers and pupils only comln
together at the close of the school year am
taking leave of one another as they hac
begun the course of studies.
The program was finely rendered , th
young women showing themselves of a re

had learned most gratifyingly to teachers
as well as the clergy present.

Is Edith Johnson , will die , her arms an
legs being burned to a crisp , but Bell , thous

SPRINGFIELD , 111. , June IS. Governor
Altgcld today Issued a call for a special ses
sion ot the general assembly. The session
will meet next Tuesday. In his message
the governor says the special session will be
asked tc pass revenue laws to relieve the
deficiency in the state treasury , to pass laws
regarding sleeping car charges and regard
ing the justice courts of Chicago , The ses
sion Is called for Juno 25.
Other subjects mentioned In the call arc
laws to compel foreign corporations doing
business In Illinois to pay a reasonable II-
csnss tax ; to establish a system to prevent
the unnecessary .accumulation ot business In
the courts ; enabling parties to a dispute ,
alone , or with the aid of a county judge , to
select their own board of arbitration , Inquiry
or conciliation ; grand Jury , convict labor and
libel law. It Is understood , however , that
bills on all th : subjects have been drawn
and approved by Governor Altgeld , and that
they will be Introduced at once when the leg
islature convenes.
The call for a special session Is a genuine
surprise In Sprlngfild. There Is much re
joicing. The legislature spends from $150,000
to $200,000 a month In the city.
lleerrnur In Wyoming Cuttle Shipment * .
CHEYENNE , Wyo. , June IS. ( Special. )
The shipments of southern cattle over the
Union Pacific , Denvsr & Gulf railway for
this year will fall 20,000 head short of what
was at first anticipated. About 00,000 hcaa
have been shipped up to the present time
and about 30,000 head more will be shipped
before the close of the season. The ship
ments of 1S'J2 ' , 133,000 head , are the largest
since the shipments by rail commenced.
The reason for the shortage this year Is the
general raise In prices. The southern cattle
owner who contracted to deliver his herd
has not only failed to gather nil his cattle ,
but In many cases has driven them Into the
hills and out-of-the-way places where they
could not be gathered. He figured that thert
was more money In holding tuem than In
filling his contract with the northern stock
niRii. Messrs. Clay & Forrest are the only
northern buyers who will get all the cattle
they expected , thalr contracts calling for a
definite number.
