H. C. Brown, allnn Clarke, Is being de
tained at the city Jail pending Investiga
tion by tho authorities. Brown struck

claimed to bo a son of Captain Brown, who
in tho early days operated a ferry across
tho Mlsjourl river, jlo also, claimed to own
a silver mine In Montana.

farmer. The farmer, Brown said, wanted

Muliiirilliiatr to Omnlia and
Mouth Omnlia,
It Is possible that tho unions of Council
J) I tiffs wilt not participate In tho celebration
of Labor day across the river, but will ob
serve tho day by themselves either at Lako
Manawa or at the Driving park. That tha
Council Muffs labor unions stay at home
and havo a celebration of their own will bo
tho recommendation of UtH Lotts, vice
president of the Trades and Labor assembly,
at the open meeting of the unions this even
ing In Labor hall,
Uus Lotts, who had been selected as
grand marshal of tho Council Dluffs unlous
for the cclobratlon of Labor dayt In Omaha,
and Delegate John Schroeder complain that
they were given the Icy mitten Wednesday
night In Omaha at tbe meeting of thu eom
mlttoo of thu Central Labor union having
tho Labor day festivities in charge. They
not only complain that their repeptlon was
of tho frostiest character, but also that they
wero given to understand that the com
mittee did not cure whether tho Council
Muffs contingent stayed at homo or not.
a rami MarBhal Lotts took umbrago at tho
decision of tho committee lu treating, the
Council Dluffs unions merely as guests next
Monday, while he wanted thorn placed on
tho same footing as thu 'Unions In Omaha
und South Omaha. Lotts also Is Indignant
because tnu committee declined to listen to
hltu and ho alleges that ho was choked off
buforo he had an opportunity to lay the
clfilms of tho Council 11 luffs unions properly
before thu committee.
The Council Dluffs unfons had secured tha
band from Silver City, Ia to head their
proccselon, and this was objected to by the
Omaha cominltteo, which alleged that thu
Iowa musicians did not belong to tho union.
Tho Omaha commlttco Insisted that, the
Council Dluffs contingent hire ono of the
musical union bands of that city. At least
this Is tho impression Lotts and Schroeder
Got from tha talk of tho committee at tho
meeting Wednesday night.
It Is said that tho commlttco attomptcil
to conciliate the Council Illuffs delegates,
but that they -refused to listen to any ex
planations and returned to Council Dluffs
threatening to prevent the unions from this
city tnklng any part In tho Labor day cele
bration across the river.
Whether the recommendations of Marshal
Lotts and Delegate Schroeder will be sup
ported by the unions of this city will be
determined nt the meeting tonight In Labor
hall.
Wsnt All-MBht Street Llht.
Business men In tho vicinity of Pearl
street and Broadway are complaining be
cause the electric light lamp at that Inter
section Is put out every night when' the
clock strikes 12. Tho Junction of Pearl
street and Broadway Is thu ono place In
tbo city, they say, whero a, light ought to
bo kept burning all night. It Is at this
Juncture whero all the cars meet nnd pas
songers are1 transferred from ono line to
onottter, yet regularly as tho clock in tbo
Bloomer -schoothouso strikes the midnight
hour an employe of tho electric light com
pany climbs the poles, turns tho switch and
the street is In darkness, except for Buch
light ns may be thrown from the windows of
adjacent storo buildings. .
The electric lights of tho city aro run
under what is known as the moonlight
schedule, but by an arrangement made a
number of years ago the lamps at Pearl and
Broadway and BaylUs park aro kopt burn
ing until midnight, irrespective of tho
schedule. Under this schedule lamps In
other parts of the city may be burning
when tho lamp at Pearl and Broadway, the
most froquentcd portion of the metropolis,
Is dark. The same Is true of the light' In
Bayllss park.
Tbo attention of the city council has been
frequently called to the need .of a light ut
this Intersection, but, nothing has ever come
of It, and now the business .men bave'taken
tho matter up with a determination to
push It.
Sovcral of tho aldermen have expressed
themselves In favor of the light bolng kept
burning all night at Pearl and Broadway
and will vote for It when the matter comos
formally beforo them.' A petition" has been
prepared and will bo circulated asking that
the light be maintained all night at this
Intersection.
Manager Nichols of the Oas and Electric
company was not prepared yesterday to
say how much extra It would cost tho city
to run' the llgta at Pearl and Broadway
all night, but said he believed a figure could
be quoted which would meet tho approval of
tho city council,
While It has been urged In some quarters
that the light In Bayllss park ought to
burn all night there Is not thd general de
mand for this light that there la for the
ono nt Pearl and Broadway.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. Tho division of
Insular affalta ot tho War department to
day mado public the annual report ot C.
M, Cottcrman, director general of posts In
tho l'hlllpptno Islands. While tho gross re
ceipts from the postal service during tho
last fiscal year showed an Increase over th.
preceding year, the expenses were Increased
to a considerable greater extent than tlu
receipts. This apparent deficiency Is ex
plained by a statement that consldcra'li
amounts had to be expended during the past
year on malt transportation through for
eign countries, tho debt having lapped over
from the preceding year.
Tho number of regular postofficcs In the
archipelago was Increased from nineteen to
twenty-three. Mr. Cottcrman urges the ap
plication of United States postage rates hi
tho Island. He comments upon the Irregu
larity of Interlsland mall transportation
and recommends that authority be given to
ask for bids for a regular service to nil
Important points In the Islands and that
steamers awarded contracts be required by
law to run on a set schedule.

Down In Cape Colony They Are (Jlnd
to 2et All America
Will Send.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 20. Tho State de
partment Is In receipt of another Interest
tng report from Mr. Stowe. who recently re
signed his post as United States consul
general at Capetown, dated July 16, which
calls attention to the demand for horses
and mules, especially American anlmab. In
South Africa. The size nnd strength of
American horses and mules havo mado them
most popular In the Transvaal, not only lu
the armies, but with the farmers. Animals
brought from other countries, Mr. Stowe
says, stand the climate well, but are not
big and atrdng enough for farm and city
use. The veldts of South Africa are dotted
with tbe carcasses of horses that havo died
of starvation, sickness and fatigue and, not
withstanding the great number Imported
Into Cape Colony, there will be need for
many mora by the time hostilities have
ceased.

The deer were all bought In tho vicinity
of Orla and they were to bo chipped from

Is 2,000 miles, and Lieutenant Derthol ex
pressed somo doubt as to tho success ot

13 roubles per head in Orla, but the ad
ditional expense In keeping, shipping, otc,
brings the total cost of the animals landed
In Alaska to about $30 each.
