Charles Jensen of Topcka , Kan , son of the murdered man , was In the city today on business connected with the ease of Hawkins , which has been appealed to the supreme court. " It was through his efforts that Hawkins was cap tured after a chase of many months , during which tlmo the detectives employed on the case tvere thoroughly baffled , being unable even to find the remains of the murdered man. man.Andrew Andrew Hawkins wns a resident of New Yoik state. Ho had considerable weilth , a largo portion of which wns Invested In land In all sections of Nebraska Ho made fiequcnt trips west to look after his Invettmentfl nnd It was while on one of thcso journeys that ho was foul ) } murdered on a faun near StocKvllle. Ho wai traced by his son fiom hlH homo In New York state to Meatrico and from there , after a diligent search of several months , to Stockvllle , His disappearance from that village , being n stranger In the town , was not notlcej and considerable llrad elapsed before a atnrch was 'Instituted In this Immediate vicinity. Charloa Jensen was living In Wyoming at the tlmo hlu father disappeared. He ad vertised for Information concerning his whereabouts , and receiving no replies bo- cumo alarmed nnd employed detectives to assist him In hits efforts to find his father. After spending upward of $5.000 In carryIng - Ing on the search the remains of the mur- dored man were nnuuy found in tno bottom of itn old well that hud been covered up for several months. Hawkins was captured In HllnoU and later convicted nnd sentenced to Imprisonment for life. The- evidence col lected by M ) . Jensen tended to show that bcvcral persons were implicated In the mur der. Tlip motive for Killing the man was undoubtedly ruubeiy , but It was never learned how much the murderers micceeded In getting ns n result of their work. Charles Jensen has received numerous anonymous communications from persona orfcilng to return securities and other papers taken fiom the body of his father If lie would go lo a curtain poltlcd place at a certain tlmo , blindfolded nnd alone.

The Nebraska State Historical society will hold Its next annual meeting In the rhapcl ot the main building of the State unl- varsity January 'i nnd 10 The State Horti cultural society will meet on the same days , but by special arrangement It will have possession of the chapel In the daytime and th Historical society In the evening ? . Il.th meetings promise to be unusually Interesting and a largo attendance Is expected. The Society of Nebraska Territorial Pioneers neers will also meet In the city during the week , probably Immediately after the con vention of the Historical society. This or ganization Is composed of about ISO per sons who nettled In Nebraska prior to Its aclmlffllon as n state , March C , 1867. Us president Is Robert W. Turnas of IJrown- vlllc. J. Sterling Morton , as president of the Historical society , will deliver the opening address to the members of that organization On the sumo evening L J.

Rolfo of Nebraska City and Eugcno Munn of University Place and the balance of the evening will bo devoted to ten-minute talks by members of the so ciety. Secretary Barrett has asked a num ber of ploneere for maps of the old over land freight routes. This feature of Ne braska's history has never been thoroughly worked up before , but from the Interest that has already been manifested In the biibject by old settlers It la probable that some very valuable Information will be col lected In form for publication in historical works. Prof. C. E. Perslnger of the Ameri can history department of the State uni versity has been collecting data along this line for several years with the Intention of publishing nt some future tlmo a history of the early methods of transportation In Nebraska. OIil-Tlnio Politic * . Mr. Abbott will deal particularly with the famous republican convention of 1S70 nnd the Incidents of the following cam paign and will give a review of the im peachment trial of Governor David llutlcr , Nebraska's first governor , who wne con victed on ono count by the senate of 1871. j i There Is still a dispute as to whether the findings of the senate In that case wore just. At the time of the trial It was considered a strange and remarkable circumstance that Nebraska should , among all the states In the union , bo the first to present her gov ernor before nn Impeachment court for em bezzlement of public funds. Up to that time only ono similar case In the history of any foreign country hod been recorded the one Involving Warren Hastings , the governor general of India , some eighty or ninety years previous. The managers of the Im peachment trial were : J. C. Majors , J. E Doom , Henry Hudson , DeForest Porter and their counsel was the late Experience Eata- brook. The attorneys for the respondent were J. C. Redlck , Clinton Briggs and T. M. Mnrquette. J. C. Redick Is the only man who participated In that trial that has sur- ' vlvcd the many years. He Is now In Cali fornia. The fitato of Nebraska realized a profit of over $40,000 from the offense com mitted by Governor Butler , nnd for which he was afterward Impeached by the senate. The constitution of Nebraska then In force permitted the etate treasurer to loan the permanent school fund on real estate. Gov ernor Butler , while acting as the chief executive of the state , secured a loan 'on some real estate and charges were subse quently preferred against him. Ho bor rowed the money as a citizen while acting as governor , which , It was held , ho had no right to do. The land thus mortgaged was later sold "by the state at an Immense profit , the value of tbo land having Increased In the meantime. ' Stock Hi-coder * ' Com ciitloii.

The longest conven tion of the American Federation of Labor cvpr held , ended this afternoon. During the nine days that the delegates were In ses sion doslarntlona were adopted concerning ti great variety of questions of more or less public import , but for the first tlmo in many years no proposition was made or action taken , even remotely connected with the money question or other pending political Ismttw. Among the closing Hems of business trans acted were adoption of resolutlone appealing to congress to submit to state legislatures a sixteenth constitutional amendment to prohibit dlefranchlsemcnt of citizens on ac count of their BOX , nnd directing President Gompers to correspond with the trades un ions of the continental European countries with a view of bringing about fraternal re lations. This afternqon a resolution was adopted to the effect that any product of labor rep resented to be union-made , ehall not bo so considered unless It bears the union label. The committee on labels and boycotts re ported In favor of dropping the names of all concerns now on the unfair list , which list had grown to unnecessarily largo pro portions on account of retaining BO many old names thereon. There waa considerable opposition to this until It was explained that any trade organization could , by making application , have the boycott renewed. A proposition for adoption of n universal union label was rejected , but the legislature of the states and congress were asked to ctact a law covering the use of a universal union label. The convention took action urging Ohio trades unionists to do their utmost to bring about enactment of a revlMon of the munic ipal code for government of Ohio cities. Ono of the closing acts waa a declara tion against keeping open stores on Sun day. day.Tho The following were elected members of the committee appointed to amalgamate the two rhal painters' organizations William J.
