After a Service of Eight Years Ho Makes " Way for a Now Man. GENERAL MANAGER BABCOCK RESIGNS DIITcr * with the Dlrectm-M ntt to the I Conduct of AlTulrM , HcfiiHeK to HIM I'nlley ami Getn Out. 1 W. N. nabcoclc , general manager of the Union stock yards at South Omaha , sent his resignation to President I'axton and the di rectors of thu company yesterday morning. In speaking about the matter Mr. Dabcock said ho had offered bis resignation to the direc tors , bu ( . as yet It had not been acted upon. Ho did not know whether It would bo ac cepted or not. The reason he said for this move on his part was that difference's qxlsted as to the policy to be pursued in thu manage , mcnt of the yards. Some of the directors ahd officers did not exactly like "tho policy he was pursuing , and were Inclined to request him to make radical cbangrs in the'manage ment. Ho had in u measure refused to change the policy * ho had outlined , and as they could "not como to any agreement he had concluded to settle the matter by send ing In his resignation , _ Mr. Dabcock has been general manager d ? Ilio Union 'Stock Yards for eight years. He declined to cay on what points be and the directory differed. Before accepting the position of general manager of the stock yards , Mr. Unbcock was general western agent of the Chicago & Northwestern railway , with headquarters In this city. Railway men generally were greatly stir- prlt-ed at the announcement that William N. llabcock had resigned from the position he has held with so much credit. A few of the traffic officials , however , those \\\\a \ have on- loyed the most Intlmato relations with tlio South Omaha market , have been prepared for a change any time within the past few months. A prominent traMlc man said to a Heo reporter yesterday : "I've frequently heard that there were dliscnslonn within the Company , There have been con flicting Interests there , and thece havu been pulling In dlfferi-nt directions for some time. iAll has not been harmony between Armour , vrhc no.v holds the high curd In the Stock yards' company , and local Intercjts. I am oorry that Mr. Ilubcock has icslgncd , for the company has lost one of the very best men that ever was. It will bo hard work to anywhere near nil hU place. " It is generally agiecd among the prominent men of the various South Omaha concerns and amoiK ) the traino olllcalg In this city that the most likely succitsor to William N. llabcock Is A. C , Foster , who has Just re signed the position of general manager of the Swift company , it Is known that Mr. Fos ter Is an applicant for the position made vacant by Mr. IJabcock's resignation. He himself U out In the country and It is Impossible to secure , a personal statement from him. U Is even Intimated that the two big changes In South Omaha companies fell so near together by no accident , but that Mr. Foster had hla eye on a place that would eoon bo vacated when he resigned his other $10.000 position. The most prominent offl- clals of tbo railroad * doing business with thu South Omaha concerns credit the report that Mr. Fuitcr will bo tlie new manager of the Union Stock Yards company. They eay the only possible barrier that would keep him out of the place Is ( hit b is net an expprlenced transportation man. in all , other respects It U believed that Mr. Foster la qualified to assume the arduous duties of thu place today tuado vacant. When asked last night as to the proba bility of Mr , A. C. Foster's acceptance of ) ho position left vacant by Mr. Dabeock's resignation , President 1'axton stated that the board of , directors had made no selection as yet and ( hat be did not know what would bo done In tbo matter , He eald that no offer of tbe position bad been tendered to Mr , Fetter and that neither bad bo made any application for the same. Ourlug the time that tbo position of general manager was loft vacant Mr. I'axtoti stated that he should perform the duties of the office , Wb'en Mr. Foster wa asked It bo eu atiDllcant for tbe position , bo expressed con- Iderable surprUe and uld that be had made no effort to secure the place. He said thf Ills o\vn business affairs occupied tbe grcat ( portion of his tlmo at present , and that I lid not know what ho should pursue In ill ruturo. He , however , did not state that t ivould not accept the position If It should I jftercd him , but otherwise declined to 1 interviewed on the subject. I'ltOMOTIOX COMES TO Mil.

NOT WAIVING ANY OF HIS RIGHT I'nllcc JiiilKr ( ionloii 1'rcNcntn II Illll for Salary. Police * Judge Gordon does not Intend , waive any of his salary rights while tl constitutionality of the new charter Is le undecldcO. The new bill of rights of tl city reduced the salary of the police Jud ) from $2,500 to $1,200 a year. This cuts tl monthly stipend of the judge .from $203. to $100. Yesterday Police Court CJcuk Schwer made up the pay roll ot tbe police court a laches and upon 'It Is the claim of the poll judge for a monthly salary of $2Q8.33.

The state ot Alabama Is evidently n the field , and the Indications are that the western mining states are to bo crowded very vigorously by the mining and forestry nJustrlcj of the south. A letter was re ceived by the department yesterday from special committee appointed by the Ala bama Industrial and Scientific society ask- ng for the maximum amount ot s-paco In ho Mines and Mining and Forestry buildings 'or an exhibit of the mineral and forestry resources of Alabama. The letter quolca a resolution which was adopted at a recent ncetlng ot the society providing for the ippolntmcnt of a special committee to con- ult with Governor Johnston , State Geolo gist Eugene A. Smith and Agricultural Com missioner Culver In reference to placing a display of the resources ot Ihe state at the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition. Tbe .resolution referred to cites tbo fact that the state ot Alabama did not toke the fullest advantage of the opportunities offered by tbo cxposl- Ions held at Atlanta and. . Nashvlllo to dls- > lay tbo many Industries of the state , and rsolvlng to make amends by making a largo sxhlblt at tboi Transmlsslsslppl Gxposoltlon , The special committee appointed In ac- ordance with this resolution writes that the tatu will make a liberal exhibit and asks tow much space can be allowed them und-jr he rules ot tbo department , and' for other lata In connection with exhibits. It Is itated that the exhibit to bo made by the tate will consist of coal , coke , red and iruwn Iron ores , bauxite , granite , sand- tone , dolomite , limestone , Iron pyrites , cop- > cr and gold ores , kaolin , roofing slate and a full geological nnd forestry exhibit. Another evidence of the Interest which the outhcrn states are taking In the Trans- mtsslsslpDl Exposition was received estcrday by tbo Department of Exhibits he shape of a letter from a prominent mer- hant of New Orleans" , who writes that the exposition Is the subject of a great deal ot avorablo comment in that section and he asks a number ot pertinent questions re garding the making ot exhibits , etc. SEWERS FOR U.M-OSITION GROUNDS. Hills ait Material Will He luvltcil nt Oiiev. The next step to be taken on the cxposl- ton grounds will bo the construction of a system of sanitary sewerage. A sewer will la laid In Pinkney street on the south , and a similar sewer on the north side of the { ountze tract. These sewere will be of a cmporary nature unices the owners of prop erty abutting upon the exposition grounds will agree to bear a part of the expense. In which case the sewers will be of such a size and elevation as will allow of their being used by the abutting property. They will 10 sanitary sewers only , and will not be calculated to act as storm water sewers. Both of these sewers will be connected wltli the 3G-lnch main sewer now In Twenty- 'ouith street. The connecting sewer will be twenty-four Inches In diameter , and this portion will bo constructed at once for th ( purpose of draining the lagoon now beln [ dredged. The lagoon has got to the poln1 wher It becomes an Immense pond when ever It rains , ' and several days delay li caused by reason ot the fact that the watci cannot escape. The 21-Inch sewer will bi constructed as soon as possible for the pur pose ot obviating this difficulty. This pop tlon of the sewer will be built by the. De partmcnt of Buildings and Grounds In ordei to avoid the delay required by advcrtislni for bids. The sewer will extend from Twenty fourth street to the west end of the lagoon being but a few hundred feet. Bids for ma tcrlal will be called for at once , and the worl ot construction , will be pushed as fast a possible. This 24-Inch sewer will also be used t < empty lagoons whenever this becomes necessary - sary In order tom draw off stagnant watci and keep the lagoons purified.1 The construction of the remainder of tin sanitary sewer system will be done by con tract. Bids for this work will be called foi early In June. Unions the abutting propert : owners Join In the expense of constructor this portion of the sewerage , the pipe wll be placed In a shallow trench and will bi removed after the exposition Is over. It Is expected that the lagoon will taki care of the storm water which falls on thi exposition grounds and the drainage ; will bi arranged accordingly. < The system of water supply for the expo sition grounds and buildings will not bi flnaly determined until the artesian wel 1.3 completed. It Is confidently expected tha this well and , possibly , otheru will suppl ; the lagoon with all the water that will bi needed , but It. Is the present Intention ti supply the buildings , etc. , with water takei from the supply pipes ot the Omaha Wate company. If the artesian well should provi to be. a. failure It will be necessary to havi large supply pipes from 'the mains of thi water company' and this' matter will , there fore , be allowed to rest until the result o the well driver's work is known , ENTHUSIASTIC OVKIl EXPOSITION JudRC Gro'tt of California 'CoimuU itlth tlif Directory. Judge L. A. Graft ot Los Angeles , Cal Is in the city for a few days , the guest o C. S. Montgomery. Ho Is hero on. a profes slonal errand , to look after some prlvat property and to consult with the exposltlo directory regarding ( lie exhibit of souther California. Ho is enthusiastic over the pro ; pects of the exposition and Is willing to d all In his power to promote Its success. Judge Groff was a district judge here , all ting on the bench with Judges Wakelej Doano.and Hopewell. For eight years , 1871 1887 , he was the law" partner of Mr. Monl gomery. In the spring of 1887 Governc Tnaycr appointed him to the bench. 11 served out the term for which ho was ar pointed and then was selected by the pcopl to the same position. Ho was appointed b ox-President Harrison to bo commissioner c the government's general land office. H discharged the duties of thin office with grec credit , but resigned shortly before tlic cloa of the Harrison administration. Instead c returning to Omaha from Washington h went to Los Angeles , wtiero ho has sine resided. In Los Angeles Judge Groff occupies prominent position. He Is one of the leadln lawyers there and he 1 a' director of th Commercial club.

It Is perhaps worth men tloulnu that the chamber formulated a bl whlcb was presented to the last leglslatur nuking that the utate of California make ac proprlatlon for an exhibit at this exposltlor Although this bill , along- with all other from the same source , was tabled , there I no law forbidding bouthern California t have an exhibit In the TransmUslsslppl Kx position which shall be oil lur own , an this nho Intends to do.

The case In which the Municipal League ot South Omaha Is proceeding against Jack Morrison and Robert Cummlngs on the charge of keeping a gambling house- over the saloon at Twenty-fifth and N streets , South Omaha , was on trial before Judge Bax ter yesterday morning. About a dozen wit nesses were examined , but so far as making a case against the defendants was concerned , the trial was decidedly farcical. Assistant County Attorney Jefferis , who represented i the state vas. plainly disgusted , and the spectators wcro highly amused. The first witness was J. A. Harvey , the /proprietor of the saloon over which the alleged gambling rooms were located. He testified that there had been two or three tables in the rooms which were used to play hlgh-fivo and whist for the drinks. There had been no gambling there to his knowl edge , nor was he aware that Morrison or Cummlngs had anything to do with the rooms. * " L. A. Scott and Leroy Davis said they had been In the rooms several times , but had seen no gambling devises except two or three card tables and chairs. They had seen whist played for drinks , but had seen no gambling. A half dozen other witnesses , Including tbo two constables who made the arrest Sat urday night , gave similar testimony. Three witnesses testified afterward that they had seen faro and roulette played In the rooms since May 1C , but none ot them connected either of the- two defendants with the prem ises. Two of these witnesses were John and Fred Peyton , father and brother respectively of the Peyton boys , who were recently con victed o ( shooting Blanche Kennedy. The third witness was F. P. Freemen , who swore out the warrant on which Morrison and Cummlngs were arrested. The trial was then continued till 2 o'clock , at which tlmo the assistant county attorney announced that there seemed to b no further evidence , and ho dismissed the case. \Vli > n You Arrive , Iii New York You will be In the very heart of the city , at Cortlandt street , at Dcsbrosses street or at Twenty-third street , providing the trip.

The preliminary hearing of Theodore Den nett , charged with libeling E. B. How ell by calling him an A. P , A. during the late city campaign , did not continue at 9:30 : o'clock jesterday morning In police court as had been Intended. When the case waa called , It developed that Assistant County Attorney Winter , who Is one of the counsel in behalf ot the state , was not on hand. As a consequence quence the defense demanded a continuance for n week and got It. The hearing Is to bo taken up again on Thursday , June 3 , at 9:30 : o'clock. Attorney Shoemaker , who Is assisting In the prosecution. Is hardly satisfied with the manner in which the case Is progressing. Ho Is not pleased particularly with Judge Qordon'H ruling In not allotting witnesses to be called to testify that they did not vote for How ell because they heard that the mayor alty candidate was an A. P. A. The state relied on such testimony to enow that the charge against Howell had tended to bring about hla defeat. It Is therefore considered that the absence of the county attorney thla morning was a move to gain more time In which to complete additional plans of prostcu. tlon.
