A recent sale of Council IllurfB realty, In
which fraud Is alleged, Is responsible for
making J. P. Orecushlelds, a prominent
real cstato dealer of this city, defendant In
nn action brought yesterday In the district
court by tho Portsmouth Savings bank. The
bank asks that Orcciishlclds be compelled to
glvo an accounting of tho transaction and
to convey to the bank the tltlo to 180 acres
of land, which Is alleged to have been part
of tho consideration in tho sale.
Tho bank formerly owned lot 1, block 2,
In Bay Use' first addition, tho property be
ing located on Ilioadway, near tho corner
of Scott street. Oreenshlelds, ns agent for
tho bank, notified It last March that ho had
an offer of $5,200 for tho property, the
would-be purchaser to pay 11,000 cash down
nnd glvo a mortgage back to the bank for
tho balance, 14,200. The bank accepted the
offer and the sale was made.
Later tho bank alleges that It dlscovcrcc
that In addition to the $5,200 tho purchaser
of the property had given 180 acres of land
In Hnrrlson county ns part of tho consld
oration. Tho bank further alleges that to
conceal tho fraud Oreenshlelds Informed tho
bank that tho purchaser of the property
was ono F. V. Peck nnd the deed was mado
out to him, Peck also making out tho
mortgage to tho bank. The bank now h
legea that Peck Is the confidential clerk of
Oreenshlelds nnd that ns soon as ho re
ceived tho deed from the bank he redceded
tho property to a man named Krlkson, who
wns tho real purchaser. The bank now asks
that Oreenshlelds be compelled to make an
accounting of tho entire transaction and to
convey. to It the title to tho 180 acres of
land in Harrison county, which Krlkson paid
ns part consideration for tho property owned
by the bank.
Regarding the suit brought against hlra by
tho Portsmouth Savings bank J. P. Oreeh.
shields stated last evening that he sold the
property In nuostlon for tho bank to C. M.
Powers of Omaha for J5.200. Powers, for
reasons of his own. having the deed made
out In the name of Peck, who at that timo
was employed as n clerk by Oreenshlelds.
Powers subsequently sold tho property to
Krlkson Uros. of Omaha, who, In part
payment, traded the 180 acres of land in
Harrison county. Tho sale from Powers to
the Krlksons was entirely a separate trans
action from tho one In which the bank was
Interested.

I feel very grateful to Oovernor rib iw

do not think thut anyone can doubt that
he luis given conscientious attention ti
the difficult problem which hui bc-tt In

edge of our statu politics to see that in
the action which he has taken his own
Interests have been entirely subordinated.
I regard It ns n great honor that Oovernor
Shaw has chosen tnc from the many older
and more oxperlenced public men of the
state as the successor of Senator Clear.
It Is my Intention to nccept tho appoint
ment, resign my seat in the hous-s ue
cllne the nomination unanimously tendored
me on the Sth of May to tho Flftv-jeventh
congress nnd nsk the republicans of Iowa
to ratify Oovernor Shaw's action when the

will which have for so many years been
extended to me by the people of low.i vlll
not, I feel sure, be withdrawn from me
under these clrcumstnnees.
In entering upon the olflco of 1'nlted
States senator I will have only one .im
bltlon and thnt Is to represent the whole

Trouble iihiiik Telewrniiliers,
SAN FRANCISCO, Cnl.. Aug. 23. Tho
Chronicle snys: Troublo is brewing In
the Order of Railway Telegraphers. Tho
Immediate cause of tho trouble Is the
action of W. V. Powell, prcsidont of the
order, In .suspending Oeorgo Kstee, chair
man of division r.3. For some timo there
has been much dissatisfaction among the
telegraphers regarding tho administration
of certain rogulntlonn which relate to the
Insuranco benefits of tho order. Presi
dent Powell took a stand which was dis
tasteful to many ot tho members, nud es
pecially those of division 63, and when
Esteo was enllcd on to oxecuto the orders
Issued by hla suporlor he hesitated and
finally referred the matter buck to head
quarters, Tho correspondence that fol
lowed did not contribute much toward th
settlement of the misunderstanding and a
few days ago tho edict of suspension w.u
Issued.

If It was tho object of the Douglas county
democracy to Insplro harmony In the demo
cratic runks of South Omaha by the ban
queting of Mr. Hryan lrcro tomorrow night
n sad, piteous mistake wns made. If the
condition was serious heretofore, ft Is de
plorable now.
The rival clubs, tho Dryan-Stevenon club
rtinl tho Hryan club, aro as much nt sword
rolnts as before. When the Jncksonlnn
club notified tho South Omaha democrats
that Mr. Hryan would ent with them after
speaking In tho afternoon at Syndicate
park, thero wns general rejoicing among
tholr rnnks. However, both clubs hnd nn
eye on the glory of being tils rntertnlner
nnd the Urynn-Stcvenson club Immediately
mado nil arrangements nnd advertised the
meeting under their auspices. And then
the Hryan club balked.
A few days ago the Hryau-Stovenson club
olllcinls saw that they had made a mistake
In ignoring the Dryan club and that there
wob a very good chanco of a boycott being
pronounced ngalnst tho Hryan meeting nnd
they tendered nn Invitation to the Hryan
club to co-operate with them In entertnlnlng
Mr. Hryan. This Invitation wns olllclnlly
declined with thnnks. In refusing the Invl
tntlon tho Hryan club gnvo many reasons
for not wishing to go to the supper, but as
signed the following ns tho main, under
lying objection: They do not think It Is right
for nny club, clubs or "set of politicians"
to attempt to control or monopolize the in
tention of Mr. Urynn when he Is here n
tho guest of tho whole democracy of South
Omaha. The entertainment would consume
four or five hours of his attention, the Hryan
club claims, and on account of tho price
charged It will necessarily preclude the
poorer, clnss of voters from nttenillng. ThU
class, It is snld, litis Just ns much right to
seo and hear Hryan nH tho "aristocrats."
As a final reason the Hryan club does not
wish to advance tho Interest of a faction
nnxlous to prevail nt tho coming primaries.
Among tho working classes of the demo
cratic party tho position taken by the
Hryan club seems to meet with entire ap
proval. Tho Hryan club places no restrlc
Hons upon tho right of thn Hryan club
members to attend the banquet personally,
If they wish, but will not allow the club to
ofllclully attend.
It wns reported a few nights ago that the
Jacksonlan club managers had hecomc
frightened at the slate of affairs politically
In South Otnuha nnd had ordered the Hrynn
Stevenson club to calm down a llttlo or
Hryan would not eat with any of them.
This caused some alarm and the next
morning there appeared n printed Interview
with Dr. McCrnnn, tho president, sayltiR
thnt tho Urynn-Steventon club did not pro
pose monopolizing tho affair; that an Invl
tatlon would be extended to tho Hryan
club to nttend, and thnt the comtnlttce.
would bo cqunlly divided between tho two
clubs. When tho committees wcro tip
pointed It was found that out of the sixty
persons named there wns but one nctlvo
working member of the Hryan club upon the
list and only five In all fiom the Hryan club.
Tho boycott has been keenly felt. At
the two drug stores at which tickets were
placed for tho supper llvo had been sold up
to last night. For fear of n frost the price
hns been reduced from $1 to SO cents nmi
still tho democrnts rcfUBc to Invest.
Individual members of tho Urynn club
wero yesterday approached and tickets
offered them gratis, but they declined with
thanks. They remembered tho committee
list and It spoiled their nppetltcs. Most of
tho olllces in tho Kxchange building refuse
to purchase tho cardboards, saying that thoy
nro. afraid of offending the members of tho
other club. Hut some of them promised not
to buy tickets of the other people when they
gavo n political entertainment.
The Hryan-Steveneou club snys that sooner
than glvo iinduo prominence to their po
litical opponents they will not hnvo a ban
quet, nnd thus tho matter stood Inst night.
School Warrant ni Vet Imxiied.
The warrant for the payment of tho Hoc
tor slto has not as yet been Issued bv See
rotary Ilrennnn, and whllo tho board has
olllclnlly purchased tho land of Mr. Hoe
tor, upon which to build a high school Mr
Hoetor has not conveyed it to them, nor
will ho until n warrant for tho sum of
$0,."00 Is forthcoming. So long as Mr
Hrennan can help It. this will not be paid,
and ns ho must sign tho warrant as sec
retary of tho school hoard, it will bo some
time before this will ho dnno. Thomas
Hoctor snld yesterday that ho wanted to
mandamus Hrennan to do this, but not n
Inw Judge could be found in Omaha, and
ho lnul his hands temporarily bound. Man
damus proceedings will doubtless be com
menced within a few days.
Mr. Hrennan yesterday denied thnt ho
was going to resign ns secretary of the
Hoard of Kduratlon of South Omaha, and
further declared that ho had never had
any such Intentions, He said that ho
understood thero was a movo on foot to
depose him by action of tho board, but
said that until this was dono ho would
not resign.
H Is hard to determine Just how (he
matter stands. The order of court, do
rlnrlng that tho land could bo purchased
ordered that thero should bo sufficient
funds in the treasury before this could
be done. A careful ostlmate shows that
thoro nro several hundred dollars over
and above tho necessary nmount in the
hands of tho treasurer, but owing to the
fact that thero arc a number of outstand
ing warranto, the1 Interest duo upon which
Is not known, thero Is still somo question
nbout the exact amount on hnnd. The
Hrennan faction nlso elnlms that there are
serious Irregularities In the last purchase
which would preclude the other clique
from getting n writ of mandamus If applied
for.

Colonel K. P. Savage, republican randl
date for lieutenant governor, watt In South
Omaha yesterday and seemed Jubilant over
tho condition of the state, having Just ar
rived from an extended western Nibraskn
tour. "I could not fully appreciate at
flrft," he said, "the way everyone is feel
Ing over tho election. In the smaller
towns of tho stnto tho people look upon
It nlmost as n snored duty to vote for Mr
Klnloy and nro dlaguited with the man
ncr in which Mr. nryan's predictions four
years ago failed. Thn Germans nro almos'
to a man for Dietrich, and 1 can safely
say that Poynter will not carry cither his
county or home town."
The colonel wos kept busy all the after
noon shaking hands with old friends and
acquaintances. Ho has formerly lived in
South Omaha and Is extremely popular
here.

Then a sore or ulcer appears on some

the blood near the sore, it incrcascs in
