Thu severe drouth that has p : cvalle.il al
most strn'llly for the lost two months h
beginning to cause the ntnckmen on the
ceded Bloux lands rr.ucb Inconvenience.
Is'e-\'ly all the wrter holes on the side
creeks have dried up and the cattle arc
forced to remain alon the rivers , which are
fllro rapidly drying up. Had river , except
for an occasional water hole , Is dry Its
entire length , and \Vh 'e river , above
' iho fnmo condition.
In Had river there are hundreds of beavers ,
which have- Increased largely In numbers
luring the pant three years under the pio-
tcctlon of the state law that prohibits trap-
] ) . K -J killing Uiorn. The legislators that
imsstd the bill believe- ! that the beaver dams
would hold water throughout the year , and
Ihc.'cforo prove of great benefit to stock ,
In"- this f.ill many of the reservoirs have
trero beds of mud. and the ctii-
to their caches , whlcx'i ore usually
underneath several foot of water , are now
fully exposed. Every summer these In-
Juat'lotiH little enl Mais ci't down cords upon
cords of green rottonunod and store It
away for winter use. They usually select
Kinall unplugs , f'om one to eight inches In
but when this clat-s nf timber
has been killed by pr&lrle fires or for
tout ? other reason caar.it bo obtained , they
cut down trees of any size. It being no un
common thing to wo the st'imps of trees
irim ono to three foot through , that have
lie/ui pnriwu ! off by the plucky little crea-
tu s. \\1ipn tlu large trees are fallen ,
the beavers trim off and carry away the
branches , leaving the truil : lying upon the ,

There Is absolutely no concern felt at the

tcl for the government , for an accounting of
the assets and property turned over by the
Union Pacific Hallway company to the firms
of Drcxcl , Morgan & Co. and J. Plcrpont
Morgan & Co. Judge William H. Kelly , gen
eral solicitor for the receivers of the Union
Pacific , 'yesterday said to a Bee reporter
that the suit could not possibly affect the
pending foreclosure proceedings ; thit the
accounting asked for had no relation what
ever lo the foreclosure proceedings and would
certainly not Interrupt them.
This Is the general belief. It Is suggested
by Utilon Pacific officiate that the suit de-
mandlng the accounting Is a friendly one , j i
asked for by J. Plerpont Morgan in order I
that he might wash Ills hands entirely of any |
charges of financial Jugglery In regard to i
Union Pacific assets. The Union Pacific offi- | i

merely for the purpose of making an official
accounting to the court of all the anscts and
property delivered to the two banking firms
heretofore named by the Union Pacific rail-

" "Business " ? Why. our line Is Jusi- crowded

have sent out 300 or 400 double-deck cars

The mother of the boy , who lives with the

Jf.dgo C , R. Scott , who has been dealing
quite extensively of Into In the Injunction
butlncoO In various forms , has been given a
doseof his own medicine by the supreme
court of this state.
Yesterday Judge Scott was served with
3 writ of Injunction Issued from this high
tribunal , enjoining him from doing certain
things i J cltlns ; him to nppear bcfojc the.-
supreme court on November 3 to show cause
why he should not be permanently restrained
and enj:4ncd. :
Judge Scott stepped on the toes of the su-
prcmo court In the action be has been tak-
Ing In the cone of Rcgla.i Morrow against
William O. Gilbert , administrator of the cs-
tate of Emily Hcsncler , deceased , On two
or three occasions In the last few weeks
Judge Scott has figured hi some decidedly
sensational legal proceedings 'In the case.
These grew out of an attempt to cell the
property nf tie ) Urapeler estate to satisfy a
Judgment secured In the district court , al-
though the case was appealed to ibo supreme
court.
During the last court vacation Juilgo Scott ,
.Uthouga the case was not en his docket ,
Issued n writ of execution ordering the
shcrin. to sell iho property. As soon as this
proceeding bucamc known to Administrator
Gilbert ho appealed to Judge linker , who had
charge , of Judge Powell's docket , on which
the case appealed. Judge tlaker ordered the
recall of the writ of execution and then fol
lowed the Interchange of compliments be
tween Judgea IJakor and Scott In the form
of orders , countermanding each other's In
structionshlcJi fin illy culminated in the
at rest and arraignment before Judge Itakcr
of the entire sheriff's corps for contempt of
court. They secured their release only by
giving up the writ of execution.
IIEFORH THU SUPREME COURT.
Although hu had no writ but an order to
obey Judge Scott , Deputy Sheriff Lewis went
* i t-u\i . . .tit mi ; oaii * aim mu ejuu n. Admin
istrator Gilbert at once brought the matter
before Judge Powell , who entered nn order
setting the salq aside. At about the same
tlmo the attorncjs for Reglna Morrow filed
! a motion before Judge Scott that the sale
be confirmed.
The hearing on the motion occurred before
Judge Scott last Saturday. It was decidedly
interesting. Judge Scott disbarred Admin
istrator I : Gilbert from practicing In his court
for six months , said ho would disbar Judge
Daker if ho could reach him and spoke In
a pitying way of Judge Powell. He then
made a verbal order , setting aside Judge
Powell's order and ordering the sale to bo
confirmed.
Attorney Gilbert and the other counsel
In the case brought the matter to the at
tention of the supreme court , since the ease
is pending hero , and asked for a writ ot
prohibition restraining Judge Scott from
signing , . his order .setting nsldo Judge Pow-
dl's.-order aiul confirming the sale. On the
showing the supreme court issued the writ
Wednesday. After setting forth the state of
facts outlined above the writ concludes as
follows :
SCOTT MUST SHOW CAUSE.
"Now , therefore , It being our duty In the
premises to see that the laws of the state are
observed and that citizens are not oppressed ,
wo do command said Cunningham II. Scott ,
judge of said district court , to desist and
refrain from signing said order , ordered to
bo prepared by the attorneys for the plain
tiff below as aforesaid , or enter of record ,
and to refrain from any other nrocoedlng
whatsoever. In the said action pending In the
said district court of Douglas county , Ne
braska , wherein Reglna Morrow is plaintiff
and William O. Gilbert , as administrator of
the estate of Emily B. Hespeler , deceased , Is
defendant , until the further order ot this
court thereon , and that on the 3d day of
November. 1897 , said Cunningham R. Scott
show cause to this court why ho should not
be restrained from any further proceedings
In eaid cause until after the determination
of the appeal from said final Judgment to
j l this 1 court. " , . , _
\ This writ was served yesterday by Deputy -
' uty Sheriff Hill. Judge Scott did not say
a word when the service was made.

wiied by JuilK " Scott.
According to the order made by Judge
Scott , by 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
Board of Fire and Police Commissioners rein
stated the sixteen policemen discharged on
September 30 , to reduce expenses. The re
Instatemcnt has been delayed , the members
of the board trying to discover some way
of carrying the case to the supreme court
before the order wont Into effect , but they
failed to 'find any suitable plan ,
Yesterday a motion for a now trial In
the case was filed In the district court. The
commissioners charge error as the grounds
of the motion , particularly in that the court
allowed Commissioner Gregory to testify
over objections and then would not permit
the other commissioners to do so. The Juris
diction of the court and Its power to compel
the board to reinstate the men Is questioned.
This motion will bo heard by Juilgo Scott
some time in the near future. When U la
overruled the case will bo taken to the su
prcine court.

A fire occurred at the grocery store of Ike
Kulakofsky , 19(4 ( South Tenth street , early
\o.-tnday morning a.-.d ls ! origin Is now IK Ing
Investigated by the Insurance men and the
police.
The strro In question Is a llttlo one-story
brick structure located tin Tenth a short dls-
tanco north ot Dorcas ftreet. Al SelRelman ,
a peddler who lives at. lO..O South Tenth
street , wont out to the b'Arn to get his horse
and saw the 11 .tints breaking out of a rear
ihor cf the grocery store. The fire was also
dibcovcred a1 ubout the same time by Harry
StlnscnberK. who lives next door. Sllnson-
bcrg ran around the corner to No. 4 engine
hounr and gave the alarm. When the fire
men arrived l.io whole rear end of the store
was on fire1. The dcor was broken In an I
by rapid work with \ \ lund chemical the
blaze was extinguished. When the firemen
stalled lit to clean tip , they found evidence
ot Incendiarism. The ttock and llxturra
were sulked with kerosene oil and a ten-
gallon can , which had boon kept filled with
oil , was found nearly empty. A small tin
bucket half full of oil was found upon n
sheh1. It wis evidently with this bucket
that the stock and woodwork of tile place had
been drenched. Owing to the rapid work
of the department the damage to the build
ing will bo Alight , not more than $25. The
actual damage to the stock by lireU tint
much more , but the damage by kerosene will
bo in the iwlghborhood of $309.
Chief Rcdell and detectives visited the
store yesterday nnd mad a an Investigation.
It was learned that Kuhkotsky left the piaco
shortly after ! ) o'clock Wednesday night.
He assorts that ho went directly to his homo ,
about half a block away , nnd remained there
until ho we called out of bed by the alirm
ol lire. There was no one In the store at
the lime the fire broke out. The doors were
found locked , and this was also true of tinj j
wl'.tlows , but .1 trap door which leads from
the main tloor to the basement was found
untartcncd. The proprietor stated that ho
was making alterations In the basement for
the purpose of putting In-J meat market , and
that the door leading to the lower floor had
been left open. U was through the oumldc
basement door and 'by ' way of the tiap door
that the firebug evidently gained an en
trance.
Kulakofsky has occupied the store about
rlx weeks. Ho formerly was In business at
U02 South Tenth itreet. Last December a
an of gasoline which ho kept In the 'bnso- '
nent of his place caught lire from a lamp
vhich h'd ' been carelessly loft nearby. It
vas extinguished with small loss. Six weeks
gj Kulakofsky bought out H , Glllr.sky , who
hen occupied the piaco where yevior-
ay's tire started. He claims to nave neon
orced to do an by the persecution of a cer-
aln firm that took possession ot his old
tnnd. This firm , KO lie assarts , purchased
he building at the old piaco and ejected
ilm Into the Ktrcct. Ho had many patrons
n the nolphb rhoad , and , coiueiiiently | , was
orced to purchase a new location In order
o continue In business. In view of the
act that the opposition firm rented all va-
mil buildings In the vicinity the Gllinsky
itcre was purchased. Kulakofsky gave $3MO
is the purchase price. In older to do FO he
vas obliged to mortgage for $1-IOO with a
oral trust company. About the same time
10 took out an insurance of 51,203 on stock ,
200 on fixtures and $1 000 on the building.
The policies bear date of September 7. H
s probable that Borne arrests will bo made
before the cass Is settled.

Polities
Senator John M. Thurston returned yes
terday from the east , where ho had been
stumping Ohio and New York City In the
merest of the republican candidates. He
; ays that In Ohio the prospects wcro never
nore encouraging for a decisive republican
victory. "I made ten speeches In Ohio , " he
ccntlmiod , "and I never saw such large and
enthusiastic audiences' ! even In a presidential
campaign. The silver Issue is dead in the
east. It is scarcely ever mentioned nnd has
-een completely eclipsed by tbo rising tide
of prosperity under republican admlnlst-a-
: ion. I do not think the democrats retain
the slightest hops of winning in Ohio. They
are making a still hunt with a view to se-
: uring the election of sonic of their legisla
tive candidates , but the eltrtl n ' 'lip republican -
publican state ticket Is practically con
ceded. "
lu respect to the campaign that Is being
made In New York the senator declared that
the prospects of the republican candidate ,
Benjamin F. Tracy , were Improving every
day. "The candidacy ot Seth Low Is not
regarded OH promising and the republican
forces are being rapidly united for Tracy.
As the matter stood some tlmo ago , I wan
of the opinion , " added the senator , "that the
Tammany candidate. Van Wyck , would win
but the candidacy of Henry George Is de
veloping proportions that promise to cut Into
the democratic vote to an extent that will
eventually make Tracy's election possible.
There Is every reason ( o believe that If the
harmonizing of republican forces continues
until election nt the present rate a victory
can bo won even In the great Tammany
stronghold. "

Whllo Irew than two weeks remain before
the November election thu campaign Is pro-
grrsslng quietly. No largo meetings have
been held mid there Is an absence of the
crowds of curbstone statesmen that usually
congregate on the street corners during the
losing weeks ot n campaign. Tito fact Hint
every man who wants to work has no diffi
culty In Hndlni ; employment has operated
to scatter the usual squads of voters , The
men who had nothing else to dn but ln.lf on
thu streets and talk politics last fait are
now busily employed In obtaining their
eharo of tbo prcttporlty that followed the
election of McKlnlt-y.
Reports received by the republican man
agers Indicate that while these conditions
exist the prospects arc most encouraging :
for a gratifying victory. Hoth In the city
and In the country precincts there la evi
dence that the rcpubl.ciu vote will bo. do-
cldodly heavier than In the- elections Im
mediately preceding. llundteds of voters
who were deceived by the free silver mlrago ,
have rceove. i'd their Fiiber censes and are
ready to vote- the republican ticket tlils tvll.
Chairman Wiillnmx uf ttc county central
committee and ha assistant : ? are confident
that the entire republican ticket will bo-
elected by large majorltlis. The only dif
ficulty apparent at this time la tbo apparent
delay of the voters In registering. Many-
of them do nut seem to underhand that this
Is an entirely new reglhtnu.oi . and that these
who neglect to get their mimes on the books
will not be allowed to vote on election day.
A. very unsaMi.f uuiry proportion of the vote
wan registered a week ago. A good deal
of the falling off Is attributed to the fact
that the booths were not In place In a ma
jority of the preclnctu , but the committee
urges that every unrcglstcied voter should
innke It a point to register as early as 1100-
siblo tomorrow.
PUHLIC MEETING CALLED.
The Hist public meeting that has been
held down town will occur at the headquar

C. J. Greene will be the principal speaker

have p.omlscd to be present.
The Swedish-American voters whoso sup
port > was dcmandid by the fujlonlsts on the
I score of the nomination of oiv * of their
nationality for county surveyor have finally
I discovered ] that they are simply Invited to
j take t ; the losing end In a little confidence
I game In which the Hoctor-RedfleUl combina
tion U' billed to win. For the last week
the tiiKluu machine hns been mnuJpulatcd.
In a desperate effort to make votes for Hector -
tor and Itcdfield. All expectation of elect
ing the other men on the ticket 1-as appar
ently been abandoned , but by trading off tllo
ot'ier candidates they hope to Be-cure votes
enough to elect the two men who control the
machine. H Is the uamc game that the dem
ocrats have worked In overv fusion cam
paign , but it la managed wlb ; Incrcmlng dif
ficulty , as the fusion vo'ers not In the com
bination acquire additional expel leneo. They
have been tiaded off before and now that the
same scheme Is sprung they are quick to'
recognlzo the fact that they are being tacrl-
ficod 'In ' the Interests of one or two favored
candidates.
This eort of medicine Is especially dis
tasteful to the populists. Outside of a few 1i
rlngslers . who have been subsidized by the i |
machine they thoroughly understand that
their candidates are receiving no democratic
. support. More than , ihat the machine man
agers are trading the popuMst candidates
