ONi : PLACE YET UNFILLED.
Ed P. Smith of Omaha was today ap
pointed by Attorney Rcneral-clect Smyth as
his deputy. This Is on 'the ' authority of John
Stephens of Hastings , who was a candidate
for the position. Smith Is a free silver dem
ocrat , and succeeds George A. Day , present
idcputy under Attorney General Churchill.
While there arc many who strongly proph
esy that George Lawrence of Columbus will
lie tljp'.appolntce ' of the State Hoard of Irri
gation for secretary , It Is given out In
equally strong terms that Prof. Wilson of
the Omaha High school will be the lucky
man. While : OdvornoT"IIolcomb voted for
l awrcnco at the time of the selection of
Secretary Akers. It Is believed that the geographical
graphical location of Prof. Wilson la strongly
In hla favor. So far Omaha has shared poorlj
in the distribution of populist pie. For this
reason many are ready to bank their politi
cal sagacity on Prof. Wilson. It Is given out
that there la to be another "Pie meeting" nt
the Lincoln hotel Tuesday next. Quito likely
both the dopntyshlp of the new attorney
general and the secretaryship of the Hoard
of Irrlgatin ; . may at this meeting drop from
the now scat tlly-laden table.
The last sitting of the September term of
the Hiipreme court will be held next Tues
day. Only rehearing * and advanced cases
will bo taken up. lloth the Morgan case
nnd the sugar bounty case fall under this
provision of the court , nnd decisions are ex
pected In both.
Governor Holcomb today commissioned

to the tlfth national Irrigation convention , to

field for the past fourteen years. Kor four
years bo has been secretary of the con
gressional ctmmlttco of this district nnd for

for the purpose of afTordlng a sluiceway for

privilege of making n private roadway undo-

nnd he accordingly appealed to .the Hoard
of Transportation to compel the company to

lead. Today the board decided that It had
no authority to order nn overhead crossing
for anything cls than n public roadway , and
Intimate. ) In the opinion that Harnipen

On Tuesday next the State Dairymen's

WILL HAVE A CHUCK ROOM.
During the past two years there have been
a number of complaint * filed with the faculty
of the State university , regarding petty
stealing of articles of clothing from the
corrldoro of the Institution. In every in-
irtnnco where the thief 1'ns boon run down
ho has been found to be a non-attendant
ot the university. Hut In lee many Instance. ?
the offender hao not been caught , nor has
the plunder been recovered. There hns been
some talk of employing a detective to wat"1 !
over the property of the students temporarily
left In the hallo , but as this would Involve
( mite nn expense It has been decided to
build a "chock room" nnd employ nn at
tendant to assume the care of clothing left
with him by the students. That room Is
now being fitted up In the basement of the
main building of the university and will
he In running order next week. The outer
wraps nnd overcoats of the students have ,
heretofore , been left on hoolo In the main
corridors of the building , and ns rtrnngers
are constantly passing In and out. It Is a
wonder that the loss lins not been greater.
U Is believed that the new "check room"
will save the property of attendants , and
It certainly will that of all who arc care
ful enough ) to avail themselves of lt privi
leges.

Nclfl Larson , the bachelor who was re
moved to the county hospital la.st evening ,
and who died there early this morning , Is
the subject of much conversation here. This
man was often * pukcn of an n "freak of
nature. Nels , as ho wns called by every
one who knew him , was about C3 years of
age anil Mail lived in the vicinity of llk City ,
this county , for several years , coming to
Hcnnlngton about two years ago. Ills natlvi
country Is Denmark and he has no relatives
In this country and very few friends. He
has for the past two years , or since he baa
lived bore , worked at the shoemaker' tradr
nnd iniute a few dollars now and then , ami
as supposed by most every one here , "tmltci
It down. " as he was never known to spcm
niiy money to speak of. He bought one loa
of bread each week and some fiodu crackers
Those who have kept watch of him ( \stlniat
that his cost of living would not exceed 3
routs per week and this wns the extent o
his expenses , as he never knew what a clcai
shirt was , or , in fact , laundry of any kind
Ills filth and economical mode of living I
thought to be the direct cause of hl.s doatl
and the only thing that throws a doubt on
this belief la that he lived ns long as lit
did. It is thought by those who have
watched his career clraoly thai he has
money secreted some place , or posslbl )
burled along the banks of the Paplo , where
he wns sofii going every few days. He had
on one or two occasions , remarked to an
Intimate friend that "lie had more nionej
than some people thought he had. " Fur this
and several other reasons It Is thought ho
had considerable money , although it Is prob
ably where his relatives nor administrator
will have anything to say as to the distribu
tlon of It.

YORK , Neb. , Dec. 10. ( Special. ) W. L.
Leo has spoken'nnd the curious townspeople
nro now commenting on the etory lie has i
told. It Is n remarkable one. Kor original- I
Hy of style , It Is only equalled by that of
Messpluy's.
lit iiibstance. Lee says that his conversa
tions with Mwaplay were for the purpose of
nscsrtalnlng his guilt or Innocence with re
gard to n burglary which wns perpetrated
nt Leo's bouse , In which about $110 was taken.
Leo denies over plotting to wreck tha Uur-
llngton llycr. He denlca ever confessing to
Messplay that he attempted to assault Ills-
sell. Lot' says that Mcvwplay was the one
who suggested the wreck. Ho also sayj that
Mcssplny told him of nn attempt on HlGsell's
life , which he had made from nmbush.
The two stories by the principal characters
In the affair nro decidedly at variance. Which
Is true nnd which Is false Is for the jury to
decide.
A summarized account of Leo's testimony
U as follows :
"I first met Mcssplny at his homo October
r > when I called to sco him. 1 told him I
wanted to move and that 1 wanted him to
help me. Messplay ieked : mo about my rob
bery and I told him the facts. I asked Frank
about canvassing for me , nnd then left him.
Prank told mo It would bo hard for him to
provo where I was the night of election , nnd
cited some dlcrcputablo places ho claims
I visited that evening.
" 1 wrote him the letter produced In court.
Mc-ssplny talked to me about going Into the
robbing business. I told him I could not
go Into such things , ns there were too many
chances. He told mo he had hit a man with
a stone , but did not get n 'sou. ' 1 told him
about the policy on Hlsscll and explained
thoroughly about It when he asked about
It. Frank suggested my getting Hisscll on
n railroad and making nway with him. I
told him I would da nothing of the kind ,
especially In the case of the best friend I
over had. "
HOW TRAINS ARE DITCHED.
Continuing. Leo snld : "Mivssplay walked
down to the creek with me ; we went by wny
of the Elkhoni nnd t'e ; St. Joe railroad
tracks. On the way Mcssplny picked up
tome railroad splkeu and ho showed me how
to derail n train with them. Messplay told

The committee of business men appointed
by President Knsor of the Hoard of Trade
to hunt up a site for the Keokuk eooperago
factory has looked the ground over and will
bo In a position to .talk bu lno. < s to the rep

The South Oniulia Land company has several
doslr.lblo sites , which It has agreed to sell
very cheap. The land company. It Is under
stood , does not care to donate n site , but In
tends charging only enough for the land -to
pay taxoa. etc. These sites of the company
nre nil In a good locality , whore It would be
easy to legate lire hydrants and where rail
road facilities arc the best. John J. Ryan
asserts that ho will give the new factory
two acres of ground In the west part of the
Third ward , along the line of the Hurllngten
road. Members of the committee nre con
fident that some of the offers will suit the
company. The building and opt rating of such
n factory In this city will mean employment
to 150 or more men , which would bo a big
thing Jtirt at this time.
At present some of the packing houses. If
not all of them , arc using barrels and casks
mndo nt the penitentiary. The managers
of the Keokuk concern want to be located
within at least three-quarters of a mile of
the packing houses , so thai goods could be
delivered by wagons and thus save freight

company could compete with prison labor.

Ono of the best evidences of confidence In
Oinnlin which has yet boon announced U the
declaration by the Pnlwt Iin-wlng comp.iuy
that It Intends making large Invcstmenta
hero In the near future. A. N. Rixsoncgk ,
general traveling agent nnd auditor of the
Milwaukee concern , has been In the city for
8orcr.il days and while considerable of his
work has consisted of checking up the local
branch , the major portion of It hns been
employed In looking over the city for desira
ble InvMtmenta.
The company 1m had under consideration
for some time past the project of making
this city the headquarters for n largo dis
tributing depot. Last evening Mr. Rosencgk
stated that negotiations had praetlrnlly boon
completed for the purchase of the property
which Is known as the Hollman building ,
located on the southwest corner ( if Thirteenth i
and Karimm streets.
The pioperty Is nt present owned by the } ' .
Northwestern -Mutual Life Insurance com
pany of Milwaukee. The building and lot
Involved Is valued In the neighborhood of
$ ,0,01)0. ) It faces for n distance of forty-
four feet on Kni-nam street with n fronlngo
of 132 feet on Thirteenth street , nnd ls
covered by n three story brick structure.
When questioned n.s to t'.it- ' Intention of
the company In connection with the In-
\ootmeiit , Mr. Rowncgk said :
"The company which 1 rcprctvnt hns for
many years considered Omaha n very desir
able ( .lace for Investments. The piirclnu-o
of the llellmnn place Is In n fair way of
rencMng a consiimnlion in n few days.
When the transfer Is completed the m
architects of the company will bo Instructed
to draft plans' for a new building or n com
plete remodeling of Hie building , which will
make It practically a new structure. It Is
proposed to construct the finest bar and cafe
In the city on the groum ; Hour nnd the two
unm-r utnrln * will nrnlinhlv In , iliwli.nml frir
an European hotel. I cannot give any llgures
as yet ny tov at lbe"e Improvements will
cost , but no expense will be rpniod In order
to make the new city hoadqtmrlero of tlio
Pabst company first class In every renpect.
"While In this city I have Inspected over
fifteen dllTerint propeitlca with n view to
recommending their pui chnsc by the com-
; > any nnd It Is highly probable that If the
nvnera and the company can agree ns to
Igures that three or four additional places
will be purchased. The company has nl-
cady. In addition to the property on lower
I-'arnam street several lots nt Twenty-eighth
sttect nnd Farnnm , besides the supply depot
it 1,507 Leavenworth street. In case the
leal on the llrllman lot Is completed , the
ompany will start at once to make the Itn-
) iovemenls.
