IL's not fair to the people in this district to niako thetit hear a lnrgu share of , the cxpeiio of building the show anti then support It , too. The railroads must ihako bettor rates from Chicago , and east thereof. They offer SO Itor Cent of double the local . fare for the exposition , hut this is merely a . sutnitler tourist rate , that is enjoyed by every little summer resort In the country. I II ; Is truu that some better rates have boon offered for some of the conventions , but theo rates would have been made for thd conventions t , had they metin Beatrice or North Platte. The convention rates , lr- made for the con- vcntionn , and not on account of the oxposi- tiori at all. Very tow people outside of the delegates to the conventions use the rates , for the uverau tourist who wants to come out to sco the exposition does not look up convention dates to see when ho can get a special rate by declaring that ho Is going to that meeting.

BEVERLY HAS A COMPLAINT Street Sperinteiideitt AIICSCM that lie Ie IIehiij I'erNCctxteII bI At- loruer MCifltONil. Superintendent of Streets Beverly cc- cuses Attorney James If. McIntosh of per- scouting him through Frank L. Carver , a suattcr who fives under the viaduct , for purposca that ur not apparent to him. Beverly alleges that Carver at Mcintosh's Instigation has not only harassed the city employee , but preferred charges against him before the nolicc board. These charges embody several accusations , the principal ono being assault. Career also swore out warrants for Beverly's arrest , alleging asSault , before Justice Foster. This case whit be beard Thursday. At Inst night's meeting of tbo police board Carver failed to appear , and the ease was set over for hearing at the next meeting. To cotta- teract in part these charges Beverly swore out warrants yesterday before Justice Cockrohl on behalf of one of his cmployes , James Quaiey , charging Carver with bay- lug threatened to 1:111 Qualey. Carver , who is a squatter , lives on a par- ccl of the Chicago and Milwaukee Railway company's land under the Sixteenth str'et viaduct. For some time Superintendent Beverly has been working a number of men In the street near Carver's dwelling. For no apparent cause Carver has resented this and has reneatedly driven the men away with veapons. lIe forced Qualey a few days ago at the point of a pitchfork to unhitch his team and leave the vicinity. At that timi Qualey had him arrested and Carver - ver waa senteaced to twenty days In the city jail by Judge Gordon , but thu scn- teuce was suspended on his promise to keep tim peace. A few days later , when Superintendent Beverly calied on Carver to reason witii him and prevent his interference with his men , Carver sprang at hini and threatened to kill him , Attorney McIntosh declares that ho has not orsecuted Beverly , but Is simply attempting - tempting to see Justice dooo to both Carver anti Beverly. Ho says further that ho has not received a cent from Carver and threatens - ens to prosecute Beverly for his assault upon the old man and to sue him for false Imprisonment.

Fire destroyed the engine room of the Fowler Grain Elevator Company at Tooth and Charles streets yesterday morning about 4 o'clock , entailing a loss of $1,000. In surance on the building anti contents is estimated at $400. The boiler room was only distant three feet from the elevator building nod the firemen hail to utilize the concentrated strength , of their apparatus to prevent the flames communicating to tbe elevator. In which is stored 28,000 bushels of corn. Captain Cuff of Engine company No. 4 had a narrow escape from death. Ho and four of his men were working on the east side of the burning building when the massive - sivo Iron smoke stack began to topple over. A warning cry was uttered by the chle and all of the men ran for places of safely. Cuff was the last to leave his position. The mass of iron fell at his feet , the force of its fall knocking hIm down. Ho was not injured. Five other firemen narrowly escaped death by being crushed by a locomotive. The men were on a thirty-foot ladder which rested on the car tracks In the roar of the buiiding. A Union Pacific freight car a short distance down the track caught fire and an engine was sent to pull it out of danger. The firemen could not see the an- preaching engine and wore only warneti of their danger when the engine was upon them. All Jumped just as the pilot of the engine struck the ladder and wrecked It. The cause of the fire Is supposed to have eeii due to a smouiderthg heap of ashes that had been banked near the wall of the building. The elevator Is the property of the Fowler Grain company , but ic operated under lease by the Pratt Grain company , whose ofilces are in the Chamber of Corn. meree building.

There is some difference of opInion among the grain men of the city as to tim lrlcc corn will bring in next few months , but float inCti who are posted on the present conditions seem to lie of the opinion that there is more uneasiness than is justifiable over the outlook for the corn crop of this season. Reports of various kinds have boon current concerning the drouth or vrosnec- I tivo drouth In the corn belt. Conservative dealers hold that there is no reason to fear any injury from the little dry spell which has been prevalent in most of the corn states. It is what the corn needed after the cold , wet spring and has done the crop an immense amount of good. Some dealers say that the present flurry was brought about by bears whose ens- toniers have grain to sell , and that the rc- ports of injurious droutlis were largely colored. 0. E. Cooper , who has an elevator at Humboldt anti is interested at other points In Nebraska has been almost all over the state within the last few days and he reports - ports that there has been no dainngo whatever - ever done so far by the dry weather anti that ho thinks the state bids fair to produce - duce one of he greatest corn crops In its history. 'Abe gooti prices offered for corn have failed to niove that commodIty in any considerable - sidorablo quantities , and one of the grauger lines out of Omaha moved only a dozen cars Inst week , The .prospect for some heavy shipmtnts of grain in the near future are good. lie- ports fron several parts of the grain belt. around Omahia are to the effect that farmern are already harvesting their small grain , and freight men are looking toward this 'with some expectancy , A movement of small grain , to be followed later by a better - ter movement of corn and the Increasing shipments of live stock , freight men be- hove , v1hl soon pull up the freight earn- logs of nil th e lines In and out of Oniaha , and the temporary period of dullness iviil be forgotten.
