to I'ollco I.uilly.
LINCOLN , July 14. ( Special. ) At the
Third Presbyterian church this evening Rev.
Byron Beall preached an aggressive nnd sen
sational sermon , aimed at the present condi
tions under the municipal administration now
In power. . In preparing the mat
ter Rev. Mr. Beall took nothing
by hearsay , but verified every par
ticular of the charges he makes against the
city government. On Saturday night he made
a-personal tour of some of the gambling hells
nnd houses of prostitution. In one gambling
place over n saloon he says he stood within
two feet of the city chief of detectives , who ,
though not playing the game , was Intently
watching the same. Rev. Mr. Beall also
snys ho made a personal visit to a notorious
house of 111 fame , running wide open , and
not located In wliat Is known as the "reservn
tlon , " where an attempt Is being made by
the city administration to regulate the social
evil. Ho says he Is determined no one shall
bo able tn challenge him for the proof of any
direct charge which ho makes In the
sermon. Ho was accompanied In this
trip Saturday night by a gentleman
friend. The thcmo of his discourse was
"Battlements Broken Down ; or the Tiger
Jungles of Lincoln , and Who Turned the
Beasts Loosol" Taking for his text Ezoklel
vll. , 23 : "The city Is full of violence , " and
Deuteronomy , xxll. , 8 : "When thou bulldest
a new house then thou shall make a battle
ment for thy roof , lhat thou bring not blood
upon thine house If any man fall from
thence , " Mr. Beall said :
"A young man at an opera house seated
before 'an open window , whoso curtain was
down , leaned backward , supposing It to be
guarded , and fell to the sidewalk thirty feet
below. The authorities were glad to settle
for $800. Jewish law said a new house must
have a battlement around It , or blood would
he upon the house. If any fell from It. The
doctrine Is that those In authority , from the
owner of a house to the authorities of a city ,
ewe It to those who are subject to them to
provide against possible dangers to their phys
ical and moral well being. The city provides
good walks or expects n suit for damages ;
the state remits the taxes upon churches to
encourage morality. Battlements to protect
Its citizens. Yonder red card tells of diph
theria ; that red light of a trench , dangerous.
Battlements again.
"The state by Us laws seeks to erect battle
ments about the saloon , the gambling and the
bawdy house. As a city we choose n mayor ,
a council , and then a police force to keep
the battlements In place. A short tlmo ago a
great fire In our city called out our fire de
partment , only to find no water pressure , nnd
a hundred thousand dollars worth of property
went up In smoke , while the costly apparatus
and experienced chief stood helplessly by.
The people arc asking. 'Why this failure of
power nt a critical time ? ' The officials nre
charging It upon each other.
CHIEF OF POLICE CALLED UP.
"Citizens are asking with bated breath all
over this city. 'How Is It .that the battlements
set up for the morally weak are broken down
everywhere , and that the death traps are wldo
open ? ' I have no desire to malign this ad
ministration. 1 haYO , no charges to make ,
but 1 have some questions to ask and confes
sions 1 would llko to get Into
court. ' Willthe chief of police
take'the ' witness-stand - ? It Is Monday , Juno
17 , nt the ministers' meeting , Lincoln. Will
Dr. Shepherd' take the "witness ?
"Dr. Shepherd I wo'uld like M ask you
whether or not you have any orders In re
gard to prostitution and gambling ? Nowhere
hero Is the- man who stands closest to the
mayor ; he can exonerate him from all sus
picion. Listen , cltlzejis of Lincoln , to his
answer :
"Chief of Police Well , that question ,
doctor , I must decline to answer.
"Oh ! Must you ! But why , I ask. If your
orders nre In harmony with law. It was
getting warm for the chief , and he declared
he had never received orders from the
mayor not to arrest the gamblers. ' Hope
sprang up In our hearts until a cruel ques
tion by Dr. Rowland : 'Did he over give you
orders to make such arrests ? ' The chief
hung his hend , and at last the answer came
soft and low , 'No' 'And you nre supposed
to make the nrrests , unless you have orders
otherwise ? ' The chief replied : 'Well , I
would not like to discuss that point.1
WHAT THE JOURNAL KNOWS.
"State Journal , take the witness stand.
What do you know about gambling In this
city ? 'A man went out the other evening to
see what could bo seen In the tiger Jungles
of Lincoln. He took no guide , but easily
located live gambling places that could bo
entered almost as easily as one enters a
beer emporium. The talking and the rattle
S1 the chips may bo heard on the streets
Ii any time. ' Very good , Mr. Journal , step
down nnd let the editor of the Call take
your place. Now tell us what you know ,
sir. 'It can be truthfully Bald that the pres
ent city administration has not as yet acted
with Its desired vigor as to the control of
gambling Joints. Wo do believe that a
llttlo better means of regulating and pre
venting the gambling practice can be de
vised and enforced. '
"I , myself , as last night I stood In one
of the tiger Jungles of this city , watching a
game , almost touched elbows with the city
detective. I was there seeking to find nn
answer to the question , 'Who turned the
animals loose ? ' What his business was I do
not know. Certainly not to present and
punish gambling. Why , with my party last
night upon our return home we saw live
women In one wlno room ; wo met with
solicitation upon the street. Law and order
nnd decency was openly violated relating
to the social evil , the saloon and the gam
bling house. Now will the editors of the
Call nnd Journal , together with the chief
of police , the city detective and the mayor ,
get up from the penitent form long enough
to repeat together the mayor's published
ante-election platform ? "

the farmers of the county are beginning to
cut their small grain. In traveling over the

barrassed will have means with which to pay
off their Indebtedness , or the most of It.
Corn Is looking very fine. There will be a
large yield nf potatoes , of which there was a

n this bulletin Is one showing the area , pro
duction and trade of wine In France. A
comparative statement of the wine produced
> y the different European countries 'in 1893
and 1894 , as well as by the United States , will
also be found , which shows that the produc-
lon of wine In France for 1894 was 1,031-
'
657,816 gallons , while that of the United
States was but 25,000,000 gallons. How few
realize that on the western coast of Call-
ornla , which Is practically the counterpart of
he western coast of Europe , every condition
of soil and climate can bo found to produce
ho wines peculiar to European countries.
The bulletin also contains an Important
statement In regard to the trade of France ,
exclusive of the precious metals , as compared
vlth the trade of the United States , Germany
and the United Kingdom. This statement
shows that the United Klnkdom has an easy
ead over her foremost three competitors , and
hat her commerce Is about equal to the ag-
; regate of Germany and the United States ,
ier two nearest rivals , and that Germany ,
France and the United States are not far
apart , France taking the fourth rank. In
1890 , 1891 and 1894 Germany occupied second
end place and the United States third , while
for the years 1892 and 1893 this order was
reversed with respect to these two countries.

Not n MUM .Mcotlni ; ,
WASHINGTON , July 14. Senator Jones of
Arkansas , who Joined with Senators Harris
nd Turple In Issuing a call for a conference
f silver democrats In Washington on the 18th
f August , has written a letter to a friend In
Vashlngton explaining the origin of the
: all and the purpose of the meeting. He says :
'At Memphis , after the adjournment of the
ncetlng there , a number of democrats from
llfferent states held a meeting , and , after
onsldcratlon , requested Senators Harris , Tur-
ilo and mo to take steps to organize the sil
ver democrats so they should be fairly rep-
esented In the national convention. Wo con
cluded that the best way to do this was to
Irst organize a national sliver committee of
Icmocrats , consisting of one or more members
or each state , and to let these members look
after the organization of their own states.
To select gentlemen for membership of this
committee by correspondence seemed slow ,
and hence It was concluded to Invite one or
nore gentlemen of character and experience
rom each state to meet In Washington and
o select , If they thought well of It , this corn-
nlttce. "
The general Impression seems to have gone
out that this conference was to be a mass
neetlng. Senator Jones' statement puts It In
a different light.

SAN FRANCISCO. July 14. Mrs. Leland
Stanford has returned from a visit to Vine
ranch , where she went for purposes of In
spoctlon. For the first time the great ranch ,
which has boon personally managed by Mrs.
Stanford , will pay expenses , and there will bo
a small surplus. The grain crop this year
will be a largo one , and the vines will produce
from 12.000 to 15,000 tons of grapes. Eight
thousand tons of grapes will be crushed for
wine and brandy , making 1,000,000 gallons.
Mrs. Stanford says only brandy for medicinal
purposes will be distilled. She Is opposed to
making brandy for use as a drink. She hopes
to make the big ranch pay a handsome reve
nue , which will be devoted to the support of
the university. The Russian horses sent by
the czar to the senator are doing well In
this climate , and a number of colts have been
raise. ! . Mrs. Stanford intends to breed Rus
sian horses for the American market.
Speaking of the Stanford university , she
said : "If I can keep 1,000 students at the
university I will be satisfied. Wo had 1,100
last year , and will have that number at the
opening of the next term. We are cramped
for room , but we managed to get along. All
the administration rooms are crowded , and wo
were obliged to use the chapel last year as a
recitation room. Four classes were held there
dally.
"On the most economical policy It costs
$15,000 a month to run the university. I have
no plans for any tuture addition to the uni
versity. I hope to be able , If I am spared
a few years longer , and all goes well with me
In regard to the finances , to give the uni
versity some absolute necessities In the way
of additional buildings. Dut I shall be very
slow and careful about spending money , as I
Intend for every dollar spent to get a dollar's
worth In return. The experience of the last
two years has taught mo much In regard to
the value of money , and I think It will Influ
ence me In my future acts. I have every
reason to feel that the president and faculty
will be slow to ask for anything they can do
without and experience has been wholesome
for us all. "
Mrs. Stanford has received hundreds of let
ters and telegrams congratulating her on
Judge Ross' decision against the government.
She says she will have these letters filed
among the archives of the university.

bery occurred In this city last night. For
five years Mrs. William Outhwalte has been
saving money from the receipts from her
greenhouses and had accumulated $425 toward
lifting a mortgage on the place. She had
great fear of bank robberies and kept the
money at home In a small Iron bank. Last
night burglars cut the screen of the window ,
entered the house , went through the bureau
drawers and finally found the money. The
'safe was unlocked , the money taken and the
safe left on the floor within six feet of where
Mrs. Outhwalte was sleeping. Nothing was
known of the robbery until this morning.

A LIVE PROBLEM.
Vn Imposing Qiiofttlou Looming Up In the
llnllriinil llu lm > .
The success of the experiment made on
he Nantasket lleach railroad , near Boston ,
a few days ago will convince many that
lectrlclty Is destined to displace the lucoino-
Ivo on steam railroads as readily as It has
Irlven the horse car from the track of th
trcet car. Passenger cars nnd freight cars
vero moved with ease and at a high rate of
peed , and It was also demonstrated that the
rolley system could bo constructed on an old
oadbed and yet not Interfere with the run
ning of the road by steam. The success
cached on the Nantasket lleach road Is
tlmulatlng other trials , most of which will
oubtless result In showing how easily elec-
rlclty can be applied as a motive power in
ilace of steam.
It Is not so certain , says the Philadelphia
'rcss , that the locomotive will disappear as
apldly as the horse car has. There are
llfilcultlca to bo encountered In applying
lectrlclty to steam roads which did not have
o be met In applying It to street roads. The
luslncss of the latter Is wholly passenger
radio , but the business of the steam roads
s divided between passengers and freight ,
t Is In the attempt to apply electricity to the
ransportatloii of freight that the greatest
tlfilcultlcs will have to be overcome. It ap-
tears to be a comparatively simple matter
o string a trolley wire over the track of
a steam road and run trolley cars Instead
of the present heavy passenger coaches. And
as the companies own the right of way , ex
cept through some cities nnd villages , the
changes from steam to electricity appears to
> o an easy step.
Hut when It conies to applying electricity
o the movement of freight trains the prob-
cm assumes nn entirely different aspect. A
passenger train can be broken Into single
cars and run with about the same attendance
iceded on a long train. The cost of em
ployes would be little. If any more than on nn
ordinary passenger train , and If electricity
costs less than steam the change would be
leslrable. But In the case of freight trains
very few employes are needed , nnd the
lumber would have to be largely increased
f the train was broken up Into single or
short trains. This would add largely to the
cost of transporting freight. So a change
rom steam to electricity In moving freight
lees not appear probable until motors are
nvcntcd capable of moving as heavily loaded
a freight train ns can bo moved by a loco-
native.
The importance of the freight traffic to
the steam railroads Is not generally recog-
ilzed. It Is the source of the larger part of
: helr Income. The freight receipts of the
Pennsylvania railroad east of Plttsburg In
1S92 were $47,000,000 In round numbers ,
while the receipts from passengers were
only $17,000,000. The same year on the
New York Central railroad the receipts from
freight were $26,000,000 , as against $13-
000,000 from passengers. Another obstacle
would also have to bo overcome. Un
less electricity wore adopted at the same
Llmo by all the steam roads those using elec
tricity would find themselves embarrassed tn
the handling of freight cars from roads not
equipped with this motive power. The Im
portance of this point Is shown by the fact
that on the Pennsylvania railroad , east of
Plttsburg In 1S93 , the freight mileage of cars
from other roads was 370,000 , ns against a
freight mileage of 436,000,000 of Its own
cars.
cars.But there are two classes of roads on
which the substitution of electricity In place
of steam seems feasible. These are suburban
roads and roads with four tracks. On the
first llttlo freight Is carried , and this can
possibly be handled In trolley trains , and on
such four-tracked roads as the Pennsylvania
line' -Philadelphia to New York , nnd
the New York Central from Albany to Buf
falo , where two tracks can be devoted
wholly to passenger trafilc , nn early change to
the trolley seems possible. But on other
roads where freight and passenger trains
use the same tracks the change must come
slower , If It over comes. Fifteen years ago
it was confidently predicted that electricity
would quickly drive gas entirely out of the
field for lighting purposes. Electric lighting
has como largely Into use , but gas Is used
today nearly as much ns ever. The loco-
motlvo may be as successful In Its battle
with electricity as u motlvo force.
FIGHT WITH A BAT COLONY
1'cnned lit n Smoke Homo , It Was a Ilttttlo
to Dentil.
It was a hard earned victory that Walter
Carter won over an army of rats In Camden -
den on July 3 , says the Baltimore American.
It was a case of fight or perish , and Carter
fought. When the battle was finished ho
counted the heap of fallen enemies. There
wcro 102 of them. Carter Is a member of
the firm of Roberts & Carter , piovlslon deal
ers , on Second street , above Pearl. For a
long time the firm suffered seriously from
the depredations of rats , which seemed to
grow In boldness as they Increased In num
bers. They wcro Into everything , climbing
all over the store and gnawing Into boxes ,
barrels and bins to such an extent that the
owners wcro appalled.
It was the Junior partner's habit to open
the store In the morning , and ho Invariably
heard a great scampering over the place as
he entered by the dim light. Ho concluded
at last to huvo It out with the little beasts ,
and began an investigation to locate their
rendezvous. This he had no difficulty In
finding. As ho opened the door of a small
brick smoke house In the rear of the store ,
now little used , he saw fully a dozen rats
run into holes In the floor and walls. They
quickly recovered from their fright , however ,
and emerged to glare viciously at him out'of
their wicked little black eyes. Carter walked
out , got a short , thick club and n lantern and
re-entered the smoke house. This time ho
closed the door behind him. The dim light of
the lantern served to half daze the rats , and
Carter had no difficulty In killing three big
fellows. As they gave vent to dying squeaks ,
however , scores of other rats emerged from
seemingly nowhere , surrounding the young
man with the club on all sides. To show at
Instant's fear meant probable death for the
Invader of the rat's domain. It must be n
fight to a finish. Carter's retreat was cut off ,
and ho started In to fight.
The rats leaped at hU hands and face , and
crawled over his feet , nil the while leaplnK :
up a horlrble din of sqeallng that nerved
Carter to his task. One after another of the
soft , ugly things struck him as he stood dealIng -
Ing blows rk'ht and left and felling a rat at
almost every blow. Still the numbers multi
plied , and the courageous fighter began to
fear that he would have to fall before the
horrid foe. Ho had been bitten euveral times
on the hand , but had manacel to keep the
fangs of the vicious beasts fro'n his head
and face. Thus the fight kept on fir fi.lly
fifteen minutes , and Carter was growlns
vcjk from the violent cxerlhn. At Inxt ,
however , he felt that the rats were gradually
thinning out , and he had less trouble In Iterp-
Ii'g them off him. This gave h 'n Iresh cour
age , and at length he realized that le : la- ]
won. No more rats appeared.
Almost overcome by the exertions nnd ex
citement , Carter staggered out Into the open
air and gathered himself together. In a few
minutes he recovered , and , piling up the dead ,
found that he had killed 102.

There Is hope In your organization. It stands
