o THIS OMAJIA.DATLY DEE : THURSDAY , MARCH 5 , 1800.
tupporl of llto republicans of our Mate In
advance of the TPRII nr party convention- ! .
1 roarhcd Lincoln at C o'clock on the cven-
lnc of the 14th Inst. . and my views on the
Mibjpct ! > pM-dlIy became known , I wa * Im
mediately walled upon by representatives of
a well understood political power In No *
braskft politics find advised that any op
position on my part to the program which
bad been arranged would IIP dangerous to
my political future. I fald then , and 1
Bay now , that In determining my action In
jmblla nffnlrn I do not permit myself to bo
Influenced by tiny thought of my political
future. Whatever position I take , I takij
publlcally , without any attempt to nvado
responsibility. Whatever political battles 1
wage are In the open , before the people
nnd In rupport of my convictions.
Mr. .Hnlncr claims that three-fourths of
the Rtnto central committee favored the
ndopllon of a resolution prc'cntlng n Ne
braska candidate. I nm well aware of the
fact that bpforo I reached Lincoln the mem
is : ' bers of that committee had been FO cftcctu-
n'ly Inborn ! with that a majority of them
wcro counted as favorable to the adoption
of n resolution , I am , howcVtir , advised by
several members of that committee that
nfter the real situation became known 14
them ( he proposed resolution , If presented ,
would hnvo been laid upon the table by a
decisive vote.
In this presentation of the facts I disclaim
nny Intention of connecting General Man-
dorson or Mr. Halncr with any of the
efforts which wcro made to commit tbo
Btnte central committee to any proposed
course of action.
It Is useless , however , to disguise the fact
that careful preparation had been made by
others to surprise the republicans ot our
state by what would bo claimed ns nn
ofllclnl endorsement of a homo candidacy of
which they had not previously been ad
vised.
The question Is now submitted to the
people. I hope nnd trust that no fractional-
Ism will be engendered In the republican
party. If nny Is those who favor the nom
ination of William McKlnley are not re-
iponslblo for It.
HIS FINAL ARGUMENT.
I have not questioned and do not question
the sincerity of General slnndcrsJn's can *
dldncy or of Mr. Halncr'a support. But I
do know , nnd say to the people of Ne
braska , that every republican who was op
posed to McKlntey before , who was In favor
of nny other candidate , U now arrayed
under the favorite sin banner.
If the sixteen votes from Nebraska are
to be tised In the St. Louis convention to
assist In thu defeat of William McKlnley
lot It not bo under the cover of nny false
pretense which masks the real design.
If William McKlnley Is defeated and the
Nebraska votes contribute to that defeat
tlnso who participate In It must accept the
full measure of responsibility nml will be
ho'.d by the republicans of Nebraska to
strict accountability.
I believe , William McKlnley will be nom
inated In the national convention , with or
without the Nebraska votes. If ho Is nom
inated with our votes we nro entitled to
some credit therefor , It without our votes
we are entitled to none. If , _ on the other
hand , our votes become part of that com
bination which. It Is predicted , will produce
a deadlock and his defeat , the best that
can happen to such a delegation wl'.l bo to
Join In the mad rush for the support of
whatever candidate the bosses select. I
hope no such pitiable fate will befall any
delegates selected by the republicans of my
Htnte.
Believing as I do that the Issue Is , and
must be , between those who are for William
McKlnley and those who are against him ;
believing us I do that the rank nnd file of
the republican party In the state of Ne
braska hope nnd pray for his nomination , I
appeal to every republican in the state U
see lo it that the real w.slics of the people
are voiced In every convention to be held In
the state , nnd to secto / It further that thb
canvafs Is conducted In the , open Jlpld ,
nonoraiiiy , rainy , so that the rcisult may bu
.accepted , without question by the unltgil

WASHINGTON , March 4. ( Special Tele
gram. ) John L. Webster for two hours heli
the clofa attention of the full supreme cout
bench today In arguing the maximum rate
cases. Chief Justice Fuller Indicated tha
but tour hours could be given to the hearing
of this case , but softened the matter just a
llttlo by saying that If necessary In the In
terest of a perfect understanding on the part
of the court , further time would be granted.
When court adjourned iMr. Webster had con
cluded a most logical argument. Justice ]
Gray , Brewer and Whlto manifested great In
terest In the development of the argument.
Justice Brewer was particularly concerned
In that feature' Mr. Webster's brief which
combattcd tables prepared by Judge. Browcr
In Ilia court below , and upon which the In
junction was largely granted. When he
came to state how he had arrived at the
relative cost of railroad construction , and
staUd the amounts for which they wcro
bonded , tiitrf was a noddlnc of heads aa
reminiscences of Credit Moblllcr and other
peculiar transactions arose In the judicial
memory.
Chancellor Wcolworth will speak In the
morning. Whether Attorney General ChurchIll -
Ill , for the app'ellants , and Mr. Carter , for
the appellees , will talk Is not determined
upon , althonoh the chances arc that Mr.
Voolworth will exhaust his cn.se , Mr.
Churchill closing for the state.
HISTORY OF THE CASE.
During the 1803 session of the Nebraska
legislature a bill fixing maximum freight
rate ? for the state , known as house roll Xo.
33va ° } Introduced aud passed , It was ap
proved by the governor on April 12 , 1S93.
It provided for the regulation of charges by
railroads , the classifying ot freights and
the penalties for the violation of the pro
visions of the law. Just before the law wont
Into operation , suits were- commenced In the
name of the stockholders of the Burllngtun
rail read to prevent the olllcers from putting
In force the rates provided for In the bill.
Action was commenced lit the circuit court
of the United States for the district of Ne
braska. Other similar suits \tere brought.
The cases were heard before Judges David
J. Brewer and Elmer S. Dundy and decrees
wcro entered In favor ot the complainants ,
an Injunction being granted against the of
ficers of the companies and the State Board
of Transportation. In ths cplnlon , which
was given by Judge Brewer , It was stated
that while the right to regulate rates was
recognized the law was repugnant to the
constitution ot the United States , "for as
much as by the provisions of said act , the
said defendants , the railroad companies
may not exact for the transportation of
freight front one point to another within
this state charges which yield to the said
companies , or either of them , reasonable
compensation for such services. " An appeal
from the decision of the circuit court was
taken to the supreme court of the United
States by the State Board of Transportation ,
on b hal * cf the state.
The flrst point touched upon In the argu
ment of Mr. Webster's brief was the
"Theory of Profits , " the opening statements
being 0.0 follow ? : "Tho opinion of the cir
cuit court was based upon the theory that
the railway companies were entitled to make
such rates as woQId yield a profit.- The
evldetrce In thlo casij was Jlaken at a time
"
< vlieh thcre"was''ft drought" In western Ne-
urat'ka'and ' a..dcp.ression-ji | business. Upon
the theo'ry "that trie railway companies were
litlll entitled tn earn a profit , the logic of
this. , would ba that the railway cprhpanloD
wotifd bo justified In Increasing rates In
the ratio cf the decrease In business. The
converse of the- proposition would be true ;
In tlritoii of financial depression , all other
values go down and railway rates should go
down In like proportion. Would the owner
of a building bo Justified In Increasing rents
bccauie , the number of his tenants diminish ?
Our contention h that when the value of all
articles of commerce are reduced by reasan
of financial depiesslon/thatHwag a time when
the producer and shipper.had a right to ask
for lower rates. "
QUESTION OK LOCAL RATES.
The next point taken up" Is contained In
the statement "The law sjpuld not ba held
unconstitutional and the rates unreasonable
for the Dingle reason that the enforcement
nf the rates would not leave or create a net
profit to roads whoso local business has al-
waya been unprofitable. " It was shown that
to make rates which would bo profitable to
thcpa road would result In making rates that
would yield enormous profits to the main
lines.
The table showing the effect of the law of
the earnings of the- several companies , was
then taken up In detail and Its credibility
attacked. The testimony of Secretary Dll-
worth of the State Board of Transportation
la quoted from the evidence at the trial of
tha casj. to tho' effect that a decrease In
rajcs would unquestionably result In an In-
creaio In tonnage , and Instances were clte.l
whore this had proved true In other states.
The data from which the table was compiled
is t'hown In the brief to have been Incorrect ,
aa showtt by the testimony of the auditors
of the railroads In the case. In the table
the net profits of the B. & M. road on local
buslnesj , under the eld table of rates , was
stated a3 $442,792. while the testimony ot
William Randall , freight and ticket auditor
of that road , gave the net profit of the
ro.ii ) on local business as fSSO,852.S9 , about
double the amount stated In the table. Re
ducing this profit by 29VS per cent , tiio re
duction called for by the law , the net profit
of thoiroad would still remain fC20.D91.17 , in
stead of $77,017 , ns shown In flio table. The
testimony of A. S. VanKuran , freight
auditor of the Union Pacific , Is also quoted
to show that the net earnings of that road
In Nebraska wcro $046,980 , Instead of $398-
202 , as shown by the table ,
The statement Is made that the railroads
In the elate of Nebraska derive a profit front
their local tonnaga of nearly 100 per cent
over anJ above operating expenpes. The
testimony of Mr , Randall of the B. & M , ,
James Q , Taylor , auditor and treasurer of the
aamo road , and A , S. VanKuran of the Union
Pacific road , Is quoted to show fhat this
statement la well founded , and , It Is claimed
that .thero Is no justification In law or In
reason for the railway companies Insisting
that tbo maximum rate law would operate
as a confiscation of the properties of the
companies , when the earnings on local tralllc
are so enormous as ghown ,
WHAT SHOULD JJ3 CONSIDERED.
It Is contended that the appellants have a
right to take Into consideration , first , the
wliolo business of the company ; second ,
whether the ratfa fixed In the act are as
high an the articles composing the local
tonnage can reasonably bear , leaving a mar
gin of profit to the producer and shipper ,
and not producing an exorbitant price to
the consumer ; third , that a rate which , as to
profits , would be deemed a reasonable rate
upon a line running direct from point of
fhlpmcnt to point of destination must be
deemed a judicial reasonable rate , although
such rate might not yield a profit upon
Other competing roads following circuitous
, llnes or running through sparsely settled
territory ,
The startling statement l made that "tho
annual net earnlnga of tha principal rail
roads In Nebraska exceed 25 per cent on
their value , or equal a sum of money
which , within four years , would pay the
cost of reproducing the roads. " In support
of this assertion figures are quoted and the
testimony of railroad expert * is given , show
ing that $20,000 a mile will construct and
equip any railroad operating In Nebraska.
On thin basin In 1602 the II , & M , earned
32 per cent. Some attention lo paid to nl.
Icged mlt'inanasement Ju affair * of the Union
Pacific. Federal , tate and municipal aid
granted Nebraska rallroadu U also cited.
It ' * then asserted that the railway cam-
panics of Nebraska are capitalized at much
niora thiui their actual vuluo or their actual
cott , and that In t-oino Instance ! ) tbe capital *
liation Is four times an Brest as the value j
ot the property. Under Mich conditions It li
claimed that the holder of fictitious stock
has no right to complain. U Is therefore
contended tmU the capitalization rtf the
railway companies cannot properly be made
the basis of detprm'nlng the value of the
property or the basis of the tariff rate the
company Is entiled to charge.
The assertion Is made that the Union Pa-
c'flo gives away annually , In the way of
favoritism and accommodation , more than
the total reduction under the maximum rate
law would amount to. and It Is stated ( hat
the- effect of the law upon the Income of the
stockholders ot all the roads In the state
would ba so small as to bs scarcely discern
ible.
In conclusion It Is urged that the maximum
rate law contains a provision by which the
rates rmu ; bo raised If they are found to be
unjust and unreasonable , and It Is cla'tned '
that the question whether the rates fixed by
tha law are unjut or unreasonable Is not
a question of law but a question of fact
for the legislature cf the state to determine ,
In accordance with the power conferred upon
It by the constitution of the state.

SAN KRANCISCO , March 4. Deacon Wil
liams subjected Miss Overman to a severe
cross-examination at the evening session of
the council , before which Rqv. C. O. Brown
of the First Congregational .church Is being
tried on charges of Immorality. Ho asked
tier , among other thlngsi It slto had not felt
tor name time that her feelings for Dr.
lirown had been such as no virtuous woman
should entertain toward a married man ,
Miss Overman replied , with much apparent
indignation , that she had felt no such thing.
She admitted , however , that she did not
wait for the pastor to tempt her , but fell
of her own accord. .
Mr. Williams led her through' long lane
ot mystic , hasty questions , beginning with
; he meeting December 19 , and' ending with
her entry Into the doctor's study the same
afternoon , when the alleged blackmail of Mrs.
Davidson was revealed to her. Mr. Williams
wanted to know If the old feeling' canto back
n the darkness of the room. The witness ,
however , did not get an opportunity to reply
to this , for Dr. Pond Interposed a strong
objection to what ho termed unnecessary
cross-examination , and said If It was con-
: luued he would certainly withdraw from
.ho deliberations of the council.
Rev. Mr. Sink wanted to know what her
feelings toward Dr. Brown are now.
"Slncero pity , and that only , " was the
reply.
The members of the council came to the
conclusion that Mla Overman's story with
out corroboratlon Is Insutllclent. They have
decided that Mrs. Tunnell Is a necessity.
She has been telegraphed for In the name
of the council , and upon her words hangs ,
n a measure , the fate of Dr. Brown.
Rev. C. O. Drown is ctlll too 111 to appear
at the meeting of the Congregational council ,
whore he Is being tried for alleged Im-
norallty. His Interest are being watched by
an attorney , j
Miss Overman's cross-examination was con-
lucd at this afternoon's session of the
council. She admitted that Mrs. Tunnel , the
mlsjlng witness whom the council would like
o find , had no means and that she had rent
Mrs. Tunnel several remittances since her
departure. She admitted further that the
noncy had been furnished by Dr. Brown ,
and when asked why Dr. Brown should send
noney to Mrs. Tunnel , asked "Why should
10 not ? "
The cross-examination of the witness re-
; ardlng the published letters front herself
o Mrs. Tunnel got the witness Into a tangle ,
rom which she extricated herself by saying
hat she had not marked the Interpolated
lassages of all the letters. She said she
lad never expected that the letters would
> e > published , supposing that Dr. Brown
vould never allow the matter to go so far
and that he would rather pay a large aunt
of money than attempt to cxpoe the con
spiracy she and Mrs. Davidson had formed.

LONDON , March 4. The St. James Oa-
zotte Ibis afternoon publishes a forecast sum
mary of the British blue book upon the
Venezuelan situation , which Is shortly to bo
Issued. It Is salil to contain extracts from
the archives of Holland , from the latter part
of the sixteenth century to the second de
cade of the nineteenth century , and extracts
from the archives of Spain from Orellano's
ascent ot the river Amazon , In 1542 , and
Martinez's ascent of the Orinoco river to
Diego do Ordaz , down to Venezuela's Inde
pendence In 1S30. All the documents In tliU
connection , It I's said , Iiavo been ransacked
In order to establish the British case.
Against the Venezuelan claim for posses
sion of the west batrk of the Ksscqulbo , It
will be shown , It Is said , In overwhelming
strength , that the possession of that bank
Is Great Britain's beyond doubt.
The statement of Sir Frederick Pollock ,
professor of jurisprudence of Oxford univer
sity , who has prepared the Urltlsh case , Is
described by the St. Junto * Gazette as being
"remarkable for masterly detail and skill
In collecting evidence , and for the force ami ,
clearness of his conclusions. "
Continuing , the St. Jamca Gazette says :
The statement shows the Dutch occupation
of the coast of Guiana up to. the mouth of
the Orinoco , such possession Implying the
right of ownership to the Hinter
land ( back country ) , which right , It
Is shown , the Dutch exercised In the
sixteenth century. The early Dutch maps
glvo the northwest boundary ns starting from
Rarlma point and going northwestward , In
land , roughly parallel to the Orinoco , to the
conil\ienco of tlio Caronl and Orinoco.
SUPPORTS GREAT BRITAIN'S CLAIiM.
According to the map which Do Lisle pre
pared for Louis , XV. In 1774 the delineation
of the district and the Dutch boundary from
Darlma point Is Identical with the present
British claims. Sir Frederick Pollock proves
that the Spaniards word never established In
Guiana proper until they overran a part of
the British territory , to the Cuyunl , In 1S53.
Previously .the extreme Spanish settlement
was St. Thome. This Is borne out by the
Dutch map of 179S , prepared for the assist
ance ot the statesmen who were negotiating
the cession of the Dutch colonies In America
to Great Britain.
Sir Frederick Pollock enters Into the de
tails to show that the cession was effected

Venice In 1776 and another In 1772 agree

Sir Frederick Pollock establishes beyond
question thatHolland , vigorously protested
whenever the'pgnlards entered the Cuyunl
valley , that''Spain ' had no answer to thcso
protests , and fJ at , anyway , she never claimed
Its ownership. , But the States General twice ,
In 17C9 andjlTJpi , demanded reparation for
Spanish vlolat/jri of the Dutch territory on
the Cuyunl. Oiti (

to the Cuyun/ where the Dutch had gold
'
diggings , and7'fof hls and with whose Indian
tribes they hqdj.lntercotirsc for 150 years.
The Spanisjj-jqqrrespondenco quoted shows
that the government rejected the advice ot
Governor Cumana to push the Dutch out of
Cuyunl. Thej.go'vrnment declared that the
proposals vrog too audacious , as they attempted
temptedsljo'y , that | .Guiana was more ex

The Dutchn'archlves have been so well

establish .an [ Ifrefrpgnle ] case for the British
ownership of the'Cuyunl basin , though there
is no adduclble evidence as to how thu Dutch

line and the Orinoco.
The Chronicle says the government blue
book on Venezuela will reach Washington
on Saturday and will be distributed here on
the same day. "There Is reason to believe , "
says the. Chronicle , "that the , present state
of the matter is that Lord Salisbury and
Secretary Olney have both made proposals
and each has declined the other's proposi
tion. "
SURPRISE TO BOTH PARTIES.
The Daily Newe , in a forecast of the Vene
zuelan blue book , says : "Tho results of a
search through Spanish archives arc likely
to surprise both the United States and Vene
zuela , as showing that the date of the first
Spanish , settlement of the Orinoco was as
late as 159C , and was made on the bank to
forestall the arrival of one Guatorral , who
had been purveying the region and had prom
ised to return and Bottle there. It Is proved
that Guaterral was Sir Walter Raleigh.
"Tho greatest surprise for Venezuela , with
out doubt , will bo the publication of the
secret papers exposing the Intrigues between
Spain and Portugal In 1750 , far cither ex
pelling the Dutch from Guiana or hemming
thorn In on the seashore. If the Dutch were
not In pos33B3lon , where was the necessity
to expel them ?
"Tho British case sets up a claim by the
conquest of both the Spanish" and Dutch
colonies before1 Venezuela came Into ex
istence , and , although Holland , by the. con
vention of 1814 , "cedo.V her possessions to
us , there wate , according to the British case ,
no real cession , because the colony was ours
already.
' 'Upon this part of the cues a very strong
one the government mainly relies. It di
minishes the Importance of the long diplomatic
correspondence In 1810 , and shows Lord
Salisbury occupies a strong historical posi
tion. "

ST. PETERSBURG , March 3. Major Gen

graphs hero In reply to queries regarding
the reports as to Dr. Nansen's return that
Peter Ivanowltch Knltchareff , who trades at
Ust-Yansk , under date of November 10 ,
wrote , to a > merchant named Kuchnarcff at
Yakutsk as followsVo : learn Dr. Nan-
sen has reached the pole , has discovered
hitherto unknown lands and has now re
turned , Consequently the Arctic ccean has
now becn , explored. " Governor Svotslltzky
adds that tlieie Is no confirmation of this
news from othr-r sources , but ho has In
structed a meinbtr it Ills administration In
the Verho-Yansk district to proceed to Ust-
Yansk to verify the news and to aid the
expc-dltlcn if necessary.
The above dispatch will servo to clear sev
eral obscure points In the news that first
came of Dr. Nansen's return and goes to
corroborate the report. The fact of there
tavlng been two Kuchnareffs Involved in
transmitting the first report has led to some
confusion and to scepticism as to the re-
jort havlne been received front a really re-
lable source. It was pointed out that It
ho report came from the merchant Kuch
narcff In Yakutsk there would bo no grounder
or regarding It of special Importance , as
io would have special facilities for getting
tows at first hand of Dr. Nansen's return.
But the above dispatch asserts that the news
came to Kuchnareff of Yakutsk from the
rader Peter Ivanowltch Kuchnarcff. Now ,
'eter Ivanwltch Kuchnareff Is the ac
credited agent of Dr. Na'nson and has been
ntrustod with a supply of Esquimaux dogs
cr his expedition. His trading post at Ust-
Yansk Is at the Arctic ocean , at the mouth
of the Yana river , Just south of Llskov
aland , one of the Now Siberians , and less
han 200 miles from the Lena delta. Beyond
ho fact the date , of the trader Kuchnareff'B
otter Is fixed ut November 10 , there Is llt-
io additional Information In the dispatch
rom the governor of Irkutsk over that con-
ained In the dispatch bringing the first re
port on February 13.
Doctors are oflen handicapped by this
mere fact that when.treating the cHseasen of
women , thcysuKg t and insist on "exam
inations" and ' 'local treatment. " A Rrcat
Diany of them do nbt iuow that this is abso
lutely unnecessary , Many a woman has
been thrown into a dangerous state of tier-
_ yous excitement b'y the mere suggestion of
fltich treatment. Many women lie to the
doctor. That sounds hard , but it is un
doubtedly true. They know that it they
admit certain symptoms that the doctor
will inevitably insist on an "examination , "
They do not give him all the facts in the
case , and so he works in the dark. Quite
often the doctor is too busy and too hurried
to make the necessary effort to obtain the
facts. He frequently treats symptoms for
what they appear to be on the surface , when
the real cause and the real sickness is deeper
and morn dangerous , A derangement of
the distinctly feminine organs will derange
the whole body. The woman herself may
not know exactly what is the matter with
her , but whenever she is sick , there arc two
things she should look out for first. One is
what is called "female weakness ; " the
other is constipation , for these two things
ficquently go together. Dr. 1'lcrcc'a ' 1'a-
