Article II designates the city of Lincoln
ns the principal place of doing business.
Article vll limits Its membership to persons
owning property within the Btuto of Ne
braska.
Section 10 of the act provides : "No Hitch
company * ! mll Insure anv property -within
the limits of any city or village. "
Them doesn't seem to be any claim made
in the complaint that any-aUompt has been
mnilo to lii'iinbeyond the limits of thi1
ntatc , nor do 1 tlnd anything In the act
limiting such company to any territory less
than the stato.
The fifth charge complains of the com
pany Insuring live stock against Accident"
und wind , ns wvll ns others. This , of course ,
the company would have no authority tc
do , and I have no doubt If It Is thus Insuring
that your calling Its attention to such facts
would leineily thu Fame.
In regard to the oilier specifications , there
can bo no doubt about the fact thai If Iho
company has made such guarantee Ihe same
would be ullia vlves. The statute of thl
nlnle , howevc-r. confers upon you no au
thority for Investigating and determining
wuch questions. If the company Is violating
its clmrlrr and It Is sought to annul tht
same by reason thereof , the action would
have to be brought on thu part of Ihe slale
and In a court of compitrnt jurisdiction
Under the provisions of section 17 of the act ,
Ihe oflleeis are required , under oalh , It
transmit to HIP auditor of public nccounlf
a statement of the condition of the company
on the last dny of the month preceding , li
such form as the law may direct. It nine
provides that If upon examination the
auditor Is of the opinion that such company
Is doing business correctly , In nccord.inci
with the provisions of this net , he shal
Ihereupon furnish the company a certlflcati
which shall bo deemed authority lo cotitlnut
business tlio ensuing year 1 tlnd , however
in this net , no specific authority for lh <
cancellation of such certificate , but by Its
terms , Implledly , If the company was no
complying with the terms of the net , II
would bo your duty to refuse such ccrtlll

So far Governor Holcomb has neglected ti

The attorney general will not likely give
an opinion In the matter to which his at-

of counties to donate money to aid In mak
ing a Nebraska exhibit at the Atlanta Cotter
States and Industrial exposition In Septem

county attorneys are the proper persons tt
ad\Ue In all legal matters Involving tht
counties. As a matter ot fact It Is qultt
doubtful If counties can contribute to . <

of the Nebraska delegation that the funds

George W. Vroman , president of the San

Is In Ihe city spending a few days visiting
his family. Mr. Vroman Is cnrouto to
caslern polnls where he will endeavor to
Intercsl rallwJy men In Iho construction of
the road. A meellnR of railway , men was
called at the court house this evening , which
was addressed by Mr. Vroman He explained
fully the plan of building , and n large num
ber of railway men appear to be deeply
Interested In the scheme.
A Bee correspondent Interviewed Mr. Vro
man on the subject and that gentleman said1
"Ten thousand shares of the capital stock
have already been volunlarlly subscribed
Our Idea Is lo Issue at first 100,000 shares
of stock of $10 each. This will build the
road from San Diego northeast to the bound
ary line of California. Then the capital stock
will be Increased along as the road Is con
structed. Pron San Diego to the nearest
point on Ihe Union Pacific. Mllford. Utah ,
Is 575 miles. It will cost at a liberal estl-
male , $16.000 per mile , or $3G25.000 lo
build and equip the road. The plan Is to get
railway men to subscribe this amount of
stock as the road Is being built. Payments
on the stock will be made monthly In 5 per
cenl Instalments. No bonds , morlgages or
deeds of trusl can ever be executed on the
property. One hundred thousand shares of
stock will be sold betoro collection thereon
will be begun. Tlio road will be expected
to pay a reasonable dlvldent on nothing ex
cept the amount actually Invested In buildIng -
Ing and equlplng it. No one person Is
allowed to own over COO shares , unless such
shares should come Into his possession
through inheritance or legacy.
"Our route agreed upon Is from Sail Lake
City to San Diego , and is almost an air line.
It touches Iho southern boundary ot Ihe
California fruit belt , traverses the
coal fields of soulhern Ulah , and reaches
some of the greatest borax deposits In the
world. Immense' forests of pine will also
be passed In Utah. The road will be con
ducted on the co-operatlce , profil-sharlng
plan , and It will prove one of the greatesl
sleps ever taken toward settling the differ
ences continually arising between capital and
labor. It will prove that labor Is really
Independent ot capital. The city of San
Diego Is aiding our company In every way
possible. It has pledged depot grounds and
water frontage free , besldo deeding the com
pany the right-of-way through the city. "

I'BTnr on Ills Life ,
LINCOLN , July 15. ( Special. ) The Mrs.
Jennie F. Held now awaiting trial at Llnncus ,
Mo. , for murder at one tlmo obtained wide
celebrity In Lincoln. She Is accused of tak
ing the life of her husbanJ to obtain $2,000
life Insurance. Her true name , however , Is
Mrs. P. Lamireux. Originally she was from
Hamburg , la. , but ran away from homo to
become Mrs. Lamareux. In Lincoln she for
merly kept a boarding house known as the
Home hotel at 1010 Q street. She had two
sisters living In this city , both of whom were
highly respected. She began , suit two years
ago against W. II. Nelson , an engineer on
the Elkhorn road , claiming damages In the
sum of $10,000 for breach ot promise ol
marriage. At one time Nelson had boarded
with her and paid her considerable attention.
White the suit was pending Mrs. Ella Blrney ,
now ot St. Louis , made affidavit that Mrs.
Held had at one time donned men's clothing
and gone out at night to IIml out where Nel
son was boarding and to vtiom he had trans
ferred his affections Mrs. Held at once swore
out a warrant , charging Mrs. Blrney with
perjury. The Irtter rather effectually protcd
the truth of her charges and was released ,
Subsequently Mrs. Blrney sued Mrs. Held foi
damages In the federal court , but nothing
ever came of the case. Testimony In the
examination convinced a great many thai
Mrs. Held was a peculiar woman.
She went to Omaha after the Blrney epl
sodo and opened a boarding house. Because
she did not furnish security for costs hei
case against Nelson was dismissed.
As Mrs. Lamareux she became the mothei
of two children. Subsequently she levanted
with a man named Stickler to a small town
In Pennsylvania Tiring of him , she drifted
west again , and came to Lincoln. Reid is
her maiden name. While In Omaha she ob-
talned a divorce from Lamareux. The lattei
Is now living somewhere In Oklahoma , lam-
areux took the little son , while the girl re-
malned with her mother. She was also giver
her maiden name.
RECORD INST. . JOSEPH.
Mrs. Reid appeared In St. Joseph , accom
panied by her daughter. She stoppedwltt
the family of Mrs. G. P. Voss , who Is a
cousin of Lamareux. As a relative of the
family her protracted visit was made wel
come. While there she got Mr. Voss tc
endorse a couple of drafts for $30 each. The )
were promptly honored by an Omaha bank ,
Later she presented a draft for $200 , whlcl
Voss Indorsed. This proved to be worthless
and she tried to blame the bank , accusing II
of holding back her money and her banV
book. This fraud was unearthed and sin
waa forced to return most of the $200 befon
she left town. While at the Voss resldenci
she received almost as much mall as a whole
sale house.
In response to the advertisement of one C
G. Cummins , Llnneus , Mo. , eho met the gen
tleman and they were married. It Is claimed
that a part of the ante-nuptial agreemenl
was that Cummins should take out an insur
ance policy It was in the Covenant Mutual ol
Galesburg , III. Cummins was taken sick Im
mediately after receiving the policy , sup
posedly from "rough on rats , " administered

Uriimt Inland Trnm forced to Surrender
Their Uniform * .
GRAND ISLAND , July 15 ( Special. )
Quite a sensation was stirred up In base ball
circles hero yesterday by the sudden refusal
ot Manager Saltco of the Palmer house to
furnish the base ball team suits. In the
beginning of the season Mr. Saltec showed
considerable enterprise by purchasing for the
local team suits , with the inscription ac-
cross the breasts , "Palmer House. " Owing
to this fact heretofore all visiting teams
have stopped at this hotel. However , yes
terday morning the Wahoo team registered
at the Koehler and this so enraged the
landlord of the Palmer that he would not let
one of his employes , Booker , the second
baseman , play , refused to let the others
wear the suits and would not even permit
the Wahoo men tolslt their members.
A subscription will at once be taken among
the business men fpr npw uniforms. The
affair has created a p-cat deal of discussion
and unfavorable qamment. Since the
ball players already had their suits on they
refused to give thorn up until after the
game , but turned tholn shirts Insldo out ,
with the Inscription "Palmer House" turned
toward "tho wall " ,

UUTTE , Neb. , July 1G. ( Special Telegram. )
The lice correspondent \lslted the encamp-
mcnt of the band of rustlers on th ? military
reservation today and Intcr\ lowed the parties
concerned In the stealing. The vigilantes
inado their raid on the citnp Sunday. They
found the rustlers In camp In the stockade at
Port llamlall ready to protect their stolen
property. The fort \\as quickly surrounded
and the men. realizing the futility of resist
ance , surrendered to the vigilantes. They
were quickly disarmed , bound hand and foot
and placed on tholr horses and started west ,
presumably for Keya Paha county.
The men captured are Louis Zoadland , a
resident of Spencer , Neb. ; S. C Clark , C. S.
Murphy and C. 11. Jackson , who live west
of Sprlngvlew Nearly 100 head of cattle
were found , and over forty head were Identi
fied by U. Austager , a resident living sixteen
miles west of Sprlngvlew , as his property.
Charles White and his children , who were
with the rustling party , were left In charge of
the Inlatice of the cattle until further Inves
tigation could be made , but as coon as the
vigilantes left they took the stock and fol
lowed the men , driving the cattle before
them.
N Kceler of Spencer , one of the men sus
pected , could not be found , but a number of
the regulators stayed behind to look him up ,
as well as some other parties who are thought
to be connected with the stealing.
The vigilantes who conducted the captured
men back to Keya I'aha county are N. Tay
lor , captain ; Fred Shattuck , William Char-
mas , John Wright , 11. Austager , Mark Har
vey , Stlllman Lewis , Jack Woods and Carl
Chlede. Young Murphy , one of the captured
men , became frightened and told all ho knew ,
Implicating several parties. One of Clark's
daughters , a girl of 18 years , told The Ilee
correspondent that she was engaged to Zoad-
land and waa to be married In a few days , and
when Informed that Zoadland uas a married
man and had several children she was greatly
distressed.
nut few here think the rusllers will reach
Sprlngvlew , as the vigilantes are old farmers
and seldom bring a rustler back when they
have a good chance to make way with him.
Others believe that because of the publicity
gl\en to the affair the men In charge will
not dare to make away with them , but will
turn them over to the authorities at Spring-
view , when other parties will take them from
the oIHccrs and they \\I11 UUely share the
usual fate of rustlers.
Deputy United States Marshal Cogle of
Sprlngvlew arrived In town tonight In search
of the stolen cattle , but came too late to get
them. One peculiar circumstance In this con
nection is the change of sentiment noticed In
Butte since the report of the stealing. Men
who were outspoken against the Holt county
\lgllantes during the Scott trial were heard
to express the hope that the men captured
would be hung by the Keja I'aha county \lg-
llantcs.

WILL TURN NIGHT INTO DAY ,
I'lnn * About 1'rrfcctrd for Illuminating the
City liurine I'uIrVcrk. .
Since the cl'y council line assumed the re
sponsibility of providing for the extra elec
tric lights that will bo placed In the busi
ness portion ot the city during state fair
week a good deal of time has been spent In
perfecting plan for the display. The general -
oral plan of the street lighting was agreed
upon some time ago. This plan contemplates
the lighting of twenty-six blocks by lamps
placed Ihe feet apart on each side of the
street and diagonally across and over the
Intersection * . The original plans only con
templated the use of these extra lights on
the three nights ot the street display , but it
Is now bnMevcd that it will bo advisable to
use the lights during the entire week. City
Electrician Srlurlg and Major Wllcox of Un
fair committee have had several consulta
tions with the Thomson Houston people and
the latter have agreed to run the lamps for
three additional nights -for $275. As this Is
a very small Item In comparison with the
total cost of the lights It is thought that the
business men will pay the difference for the
sake of having an Illumination during each
night ot the week.
Mr. Schurlg has also about completed the
plans for the Illumination of the city hall.
These nro more elaborate than the first plans
and contemplate some very realistic effects.
The principal feature will bo n huge star , !
which will bo constructed in the central gable
over the main entrance. This star will bo
sixteen feet In diameter and will contain 2CO
incandescent lights. These 111 bo arranged
In three rows with red , white and blue globes
respectively. The switchboard will bo ar
ranged to keeplliese lights In play nt ono time ,
the last light being extinguished as a new ono
U added. The action of the switchboard
will bo almost Instantaneous and the effect
will be that ot zig-zag chains of lightning ;
first a chain of white light will dash around
the outline of the stir then ono of red , and
lastly ono of blue. The switchboard will bo
arranged so that the operator will have per
fect control of each lamp , and some strikingly
beautiful effects nro promised.
The cornice on the tower will bo orna
mented with a row of 100 Incandescent lamps ,
with twenty-five In each of the arches under
neath. The torch In the hand ot the statue
will bo composed of twenty lights and appro
priate decorations of Incandescent lamps will
overhang the entrances. The entire cost ot
these illuminations will bo about $500. No
action has been taken by the council , but it Is
understood that the members are In favor of
making the most of the city hall during the
festivities and Mr. Schurlg will submit his
plans for approval as soon as the details are
thoroughly wofked out.
