Jndga Thorncll convened the district coui
yesterday after his return from his homo 1
Sidney , where hi ; has been since Saturdaj
Among the first matters that were called t
his attrition was a petition asking for th
appointment of a receiver for the Kcyston
Manufacturing company , whoso local plant I
this city Is one of the largest In the agt
cultural Implement district. The filing of th
petition created a good deal ot Interest , on
there was considerable anxiety among Impli
mcnt men nlul attorneys to learn the fact-
All apprehension was quickly allayed when
was learned the proceedings were .a part (
a plan matured at the homo ofllcc o' th
company , Sterling , 111. , for Increasing II
financial safety and preventing the Intcrfci
cnce of sonic importunate creditors. The n
celvrrshlp was applied for by Thomas A. Gal
the president of the company. The facts n
cited by the petition filed hero are that th
company was capitalized for $150,000 , an
that Iho financial statement ot its affali
made January t showf-d that It was li
debled to the extent of $510,000 , with assel
that would not exceed ? 100,000. The grount
upon which the court was asked to appoint
receiver are stated In the petition to be th
liability ot attachment and forced sale of th
property , which would entail ruinous loss.
Before the case had ben submitted to 111
court a telegram was received by the loci
attorneys from.Stcrllng , III. , announcing th :
the circuit court of Whltcsldc county , 111
had given the plaintiff a Judgment yesterda
for JSS.OOO. Immediately following this ai
tlon the Illinois court appointed E. Lero
Gall , son ot the prcslc'-jnt , and Frank J
Trncey , secretary of the company , receive !
at the home office. With these facts befot
him the court granted the application an
appointed James B. Patterson , the local get
oral manager , receiver for the Council Blufl
property. This Is represented to approx
mate about $17,300 , and Include the Kej
stone building and grounds upon which
stands , the slock of Implements on hand an
the principal book accounts. A number c
small book accounts scattered over Iowa an
Nebraska art- not Included 'In Iho estimate.
The court required Mr. Patterson to file
temporary bond for $3,000 Immediately and
permanent 'bond tor $15,000 within a r casoi
able time.
The same action was taken yesterday t
the company's plant at Kansas City , whei
Mr. Patterson's brother was appointed r <
coiver. Ho has also Ionbicn In charge <
the ofllcc as Its manager.
Mr , Patterson was seen yesterday an
talked quite freely about the company's a
fairs , which he did not consider to bo In-
bad shape at all. The application for a n
celvorshlp was a business necessity produce
by the depression and stringency that he
prevailed tor the last Hires or four year
The company was overstocked with materl :
and had a vast amount of capital tied up I
manufactured goods scattered over the coin
try. Bad collections , the bane of all klni
of business , was largely responsible for tl
trouble. Creditors had not been pressing tl :
company , but Us financial condition becam
such that serious consequences might folio
a pressure It it should bo brought to bea
With conditions continuing even as they ai
now the company will recover and meet over

Thirty years ago yesterday the first rail
way train on tbo Northwestern railroad ai
rived in Council Bluffs. The occasion wa
ono of great rejoicing and the event was celt
brated with such enthusiasm that a nurabe
of the old citizens yesterday recalled It wit
much pleasure. The railway company ha
{ . wen timely notice of the arrival of the expected
pectod train , and the mayor and member
of the city council prepared for Its receji
tlou. All of the department officers and eui
ployes , civic Bocltlea and firemen , and every
body else who was willing to walk and carr
a banner joined In the iirocosaloa tha
marched out < n the direction of Myn
stcr Springs to meet the train. A grea
quantity of liquid refreshments wc'c takti
along to add to the Joy. The signal to 1 *
given by the train announcing Its comlni
was a series ot whistles which were to bi
sounded a mlle or two above town. Thi
crowd marshaled Itself at the mayor's offlci
an-1 waited nearly all day. Latb In thi
afternoon the screaming ot a locomnllvi

liquid refreshments were drawn upon heavll ;
before the end was reached. In the mean

Indications yesterday were that tl
strange case of George Parks , who wa :
killed In Wyoming .In . 1870 while in the em.
ploy of John A. Crclghton , would bo revlvct
with some sensational developments.
Parks left Council Bluffs In 1870 and let
on deposit In the First National bank hen
thosum , of $3,000 , taking with him. the."cer
tificate deposit. Parks was murdered whlh
taking care of Crelghton's ranch there , am
from that day to this , no heir has ever beei
found who could provo a valid claim to tin
money In the bank. Several years ag (
Davenport ot this city applied to the court !
and was appointed administrator and souglr
to compel the bank to turn over the money
The litigation that followed was enl ;
brought to a final close last sum
mer , when $1,000 of the monej
was declared to Iho escheated t <
the state. In 1871 Herbert F. Noursc , wh
was a companion of Parks on the Wyomlni
ranch wns arrested for the murder. II
had a trial In the federal court and wa
found guilty and sentenced for life to th
house of detention In Detroit. After an In
tcrval ho was awarded a new trial , whlcl
was held at Cheyenne. He was again fount
guilty and sent to the Wyoming prison fo
life. After serving n number of years h
was pardoned. It has since been learnci
that lie had a partner In Omaha , In the per
son of a citizen who Is still a resident o
the city , and who was known to have hai
possession of the certificate of deposit. Th
case was given now Interest by the presence o
a deputy sheriff from Cheyenne In the clt ;
yesterday whoso mission was to as
certain some Important facts abou
the case. But llttlo concornlnj
his mission could bo learned , beyond tin
fact that the case would likely bo reopencc
In the courts In the shape of a new crlmlna
prosecution for murder. While the mono ;
in the bank was In the possession ot Attorney
tornoy Davenport , there was about 101
claimants In the field trying to show tha
they were relatives of the murdered man
and entitled to the money. Ono of then
was a woman , who claimed that she wa :
Park's wife. A month ago a new clalman
appeared in the person of a man from In
dtana , who has shown almost concluslvcli
that ho Is the brother of the dead man , I
was through his Inquiries that long lumbering
boring Justice has again been awakened.

UAILUOAD LAWS STA D.
The railroad laws , the bond ot contcntlor
of the last general assembly , will not I
changed from the tc.xt ot the old statute :
At least , the words ot the old laws will b
reslored as far as possible. Senator Healy' '
protest of a year ago carries the day , an
the process of mandamus will be rctalnc
as the proper ono by which to enforce ordci
of the railroad commission.
This was decided today In a meeting of th
committees on railroad" . The matter wn
discussed at length. Senator 1'usey declare
that there was no practical difference In el
feet ; ho stood by the code commission an
declared It had not emasculated the lawi
Senator Healy had contended that the sul
stltutlon of a mandamus for an injunctlo
proceeding to enforce commissioners' ordci
was a serious change , and would dccrcas
the effectiveness of the law. Senator 1'use
assured the committee that a "pefcmptor
writ of mandamus or any proper proces
mandatory or otherwise , " the language <
the commissioners , was as comprchenUv
as any lawyer could possibly demand. Ut
out of regard to the feelings of anyhod
who might want the word Injunction uoci
the conunUteo decided to restore it in coi
ncctlon with the other words ot the scctloi
The members of the committee declare tlu
on the whole , aside from the possible cffei
of this change , the railroad laws have bee
excellently' rewritten.
The special charter cities will prcbabl
have to codify their special acts it the :
are to bo preserved. It has been decide
that they will bo allowed to have a llttl
commission all to themselves , to revise am
systematize the various laws that hav
given them special charters. r.Tho , cities ani

Mnny MnttcrN Arc Taken Up am
Considered.
The weekly meeting ot the executive com
mltteo of the Commercial club was drawi
out Into a rather lengthy session ycster
day. Several important matters were dls
cussed and acted on. One was a resolutloi
offered by A. Hospc , jr. , which contemplatei

an expression tboclub against <
No. ' , ? , introduced by Senator Haller ot Blair
known as the "anti-compact bill " It pro
posed the abolition of the fire insurance In
spcctlon bureau. Mr. Hospe urged the'adop
tlon of his resolution , su action had al
ready been taken by the Retailers' assocla
tlon and the support of the Commercial clul
was desired. Other members of the com
mltteo objected against any action belni
taken by the club , and the resolution wa
defeated.
The committee , however , adopted a reso
lutlon , declaring in favor of liousc roll No
10,090 , now before congress. The law pro
poses an amendment to the Interstate com
merca laws , by which the railroads an
enabled to glvo flat rates and be protected
from the brokers. The resolution was urgec
on the ground that It was important tha
this amendment should be made , In ordei
that the roads might give flat rates durini
the exposition. It was adopted , but no
without opposition.
B. C. Smith wanted the club to endorse
his candidacy for the position of Unltei
States consul for Mexico. It was decldei
that any action of that kind must bo takei
by members personally and not by the com
mltteo.
Correspondence In regard to a maltlni
establishment that the club has In prospec

to bo consummated. An eastern firm en
gaged In the manufacture of musical Instru

what Inducements could be offered. Th
mattec will bo taken up.

SAN FRANCISCO , Feb. 2 , Oeorgo Edward
Butler , alias Ashe , the murderer , whoso ar
rival on the ship Swanhllda was so long ex
pected , Is now In the San Francisco Jail.
The Swanhllda was plghtcd nt C:15 : this
morning , coming through the heads In tow
ot the tug Alice. The lug blew elx whistles ,
the signal agreed upon It Butler was on
board , but detectives waiting down the bay
did not hear them , ami , although they knew
the Swanhllda was coming In , they did not
know whether Butler was on board. Sud
denly a red light Hashed out through the
darkness. This was another signal and the
officers know their mau was there. The ens'
toms boat at Hartley , which had been placcil
at the dlsposal-of the police , was boarded In
haste by six detectives , four newspaper men
and four revenue officers , and the llttlo vessel
steamed rapidly away to the Swanhllda ,
which was met off Fort Point. The detect
ives remained concealed In the cabin ,
while the revenue officers went on
board the Swanhllda to see If Butler hail
been put In irons. They reported that ho hail
not j > : id Iho detectives wont.on the ship.
Butler was pointed out and In a second
was handcuffed. He denied that ho was
Butler , but was positively Idenllficd by De
tectives Mcllattlo and Conroy , who came
hero from Australia for that purpose. The
suspected murderer was taken on board the
Hartley , which soon landed him at tlm wharf ,
The pa'trol wagon was In waiting a'nd. ho wao
hustled oft to the prison. Although the arrest
to the suspected
rest was a complete surprise
man he intlntalned remarkable composure
>
and calmly puffed a cigarette as ho went
ashore.
SURPRISED BY THE OFFICERS.
Captain FrazJr of the Swanhllda said But
ler shipped with him as a seaman under the
name of Lee Wellcr , ono of his victims. All
went well on the trip across the Pacific and
the notorious murderer
It was not known that
derer waa on board. Yesterday when It was
known that the vessel was near San Fran
cisco he- asked Captain Frazcr when the
pilot appeared to slow up , as he expected
letters from Australia. When the pilot
came aboard Butler approached him and
asked : "Well , is It yes or no ? " The pilot
did not know what ho meant and he gave
no explanation. Captain Frazer was Informed
by the pilot that It was supposed Butler waa
on board under the name of Leo Weller
and told of lha arrangements for his capture ,
faptaln Frazer agreed to do all in bis power
to help the police.
Nothing was said to Butler and the ship
was brought Into port. It was agreed that
when the crew lined up for Inspection Cap
tain Frazer was to slip in front ot Butler
When the police came on boar.d and the men
lined up Butler was the second man in lino.
Captain Frazer stopped an Instant In front
of him and at the same time Sergeant Bonucr
of the local police covered him with a pistol.
Butler's hands went Tip like a flash. Irons
were slipped over his wrists and one of the
most notorious criminals of modern times
was a prisoner. Datectlves McHattlo and
Conroy , who know Butler In Australia , Con
roy having narrowly escaped being one of his
victims , were disguised when they boarded
the Swanhllda. When they charged Butler
with the crimes attributed to him he pro
fessed entire Ignorance and denied that hh
name was Butler. On board the Hartley
on the way to the shore the disguises were
removed and still Butler pretended not to
know his captors.
On the voyage from Newcastle Butler
worked as an ordinary seaman. In , hla kit
were found garments bearing different marks ,
which correspond to the Initials of some of
hla victims. The Australian officers are over
joyed at the successful outcome of their long
and weary wait. Extradition papers have
already been served and unless something
unforeseen happens 'Butler ' and his custo
dians will sail for Australia Thursday on the
Monowal.
Butler Is extremely English In appearance
and speaks with a pronounced .English ac
cent. Ho gave his name at the city prison
as Eagan. Butler Is credited by the Aus
tralian police with having murdered four
teen men. Ills plan was to entice mcu whom
he knew to have money Into the Interior
under the pretense of examining a mining
claim and then murder them. His last vic
tim was Captain Leo Weller , a retired ship
captain. Butler took his money and clothes
and shipped on the Swanhllda under the
name of Weller.
DECLINES TO TALK.
Butler dscllnes to bo Interviewed , refusing
to make any statement as to his Identity
further than that his name Is Elgan , but
ho admits having shipped under thouiamc ol
Lee Wellcr. He refuses , however , to give
any reason why ho assumed Weller's name
and declines to admit that ho over knew Wul-
ler. Ho says a man Is Innocent until proven
guilty and he says hovlll make no state
ment regarding ainy portion ot his past his
tory. Butler appears undisturbed by his posl.
tlon and sits unconcernrdly facing his ques
tioners with contemptuous glances. He af
fects to bo rather amused than otherwise
at his predicament. He Li below medium
height and is decidedly insignificant in ap
pearance. Ho has a malevolent expression ,
but hardly -looks like a confirmed
criminal. He Is apparently about
27 years old and and his address
suggests a fair education. When his bag
gage was brought ashore any quantity of
Incriminating evidence against him was
found carefully packed In with his own be
longings. A photograph ot Mrs. Wellcr ,
a pair of bluchers , on which were stamped
Wcller's name , two watches , a spectacle
case and watch chain with locket , all bearIng -
Ing Lee Weller's name or monogram , a
number ot books , on Iho fly leaves of which
were the names of Weller and his wife and
many other articles , are considered by the
detectives as positively connecting him with
the murdered sea captain and prospector.
The detectives are very positive as to the
Identity of their prisoner and Ecoff at any
possibility of a mistake.
When the Monowal sails for Australia
on Friday she will not take Butler and the
Australian detectives. The prisoner's pres
ence Is required before United States Court
Commissioner Hcacock next Monday , and If
Butler makes a technical defense to his extradition -
tradition , as ho says ho will do , ho may re
main In San Francisco for novural weeks.
When ho was taken bofora the commissioner
this afternoon , ho said his true name Is
Leo Weller , and after Constable Conroy of
the Australian police had Idontlflcd him as
Butler , the alleged murderer , Iho prl.ioiur's
attorneys asked for a continuance for ten
days. In order to prepare n defense. Next
Monday was set by the commissioner as a
compromise date for both sides.
Butler maintains Ills policy of reticence ,
and absolutely refuses to discuss his past ,
except for momentary lapses , when a shrewd
question throws him temporarily oft his
guard. Butler Is displaying much cunning ,
but it Is rather of a low order. Ho refuses
to even look at a reporter unless the news
paper man keeps him supplied with clgaru ,
which bo smokes Incessantly , When thus
bribed he will .listen to questions , but
will return no replies.
