Mor gan'! attorneys to be the central figure In the arult In New Jersey to restrain the con version of the preferred stock of the Steel trust, and who Is said to be taking a posi tion with reference U that trust analogous to that taken by Peter Power In the rail way merger, was once a resident of Omaha, according to affidavit mad by Judge Oeorge la. Day of this city. When David Lamar lived In Omaha he was known aa David H. Lewis and showed one of the marks which now attach to him as an associate of the leaders of "the street." Breaking of him yesterday morning, Judge Day said: "I could not be mistaken In the man. My same was attached to some papers which had been in bis possession and the attorneys for his antagonists wrote to Senator Millard to ascertain my standing an If I still lived In the cHy. I afterward received an Invi tation te oome to New York and see if 1 could Identify the man. I went to the race ! track and picked him out of more than ?S.0M people there assembled. There la no kioubt of his identity In my mind. " OAew Faraltwre Attached. "It was in March, 18Bt that I became ac quainted wtth htm. He had an office in the New Tprk Life building and was an adver tising special let. preparing blotters and ether forms of advertising for the publlo generally. He bad a law suit with, a man Darned Long, who had attached some of bis office furniture. J defended him in that ault and acted for him in another transac tion. Aside from this I knew nothing about bis business, but never looked upon him aa man of wealth. Edward Haymaker, sec retary of the Rees Printing company, went en his replevin bond and probably know more about blm than I do." Mr. Haymaker said: "If that Is really David H. Lewis, I knew him in a business way fairly well. He came here and placed orders with us for the printing of his ad vertising specialties. When he had the law suit oyer his office furniture I went on his replevin bond and I bad to pay that bond. too. The amount, aa I remember It, was 40, and ha failed to reimburse me when he left. It I am not mistaken we have a book account against him of about ISO which he failed to pay. He drifted out of Omaha and we never knew anything more about blm. We thought it waa of little use to look hlra up." Others Remember Lewie. Several other persons remember Lewis in vague way. Judge Day says that he can not understand the reaaon the people who mi uL-ii to tins ars eo as!o aa- certain his past record, as it would appear to have little bearing upon the case at Is sue.

It is nothing uncommon for Mr. Lamar to have loO.OOu cash in his pockets while walking about ,Wall street. Lamar came to New Tork a few years ago from Atlanta, On., where be bad elaborately furnished offices. When he ar rived he was una to do pracucauy penni less.

OMAHA'S HEW CLOTHIftO TORK. Saturday, August So, the new clothing firm. Berg-8wenson Co., will open Its doors to the public, and invites everyone to come and inspect their most complete new stock of men's and boys' clothing, hats and furnishings. This store, which Is located at the north east corner of Fifteenth and Douglas, has been entirely refitted and rearranged In the most modern manner and with the tables and shelves laden with fresh new goods pre sents an example of the 20th century cloth ing store, one of which Omaha people may well be proud. The members of the firm ars well known In this locality, having spent the greater part of their Uvea here, and are conceded to be expert authority on everything per taining to men's and boys' wearing apparel. Mr. Berg is connected with the firm of D. Adler A Sons' Clothing Co., Milwaukee, one of the largest clothing manufacturing con cerns in the country. Mr. Swanson has been clothing manager and buyer for Hay den Bros, for the last ten years and Is well known as one of the beet Judges and shrewdest buyers of men's and boys' cloth ing in the west. Mr. Monson Is at pres ent running one of the largest and most up- to-date general stores in the State at Osce ola, Neb., and is also Interested in another store at Stromsberg, Neb. In outlining the policy of the new firm Mr. Swanson said It would be similar to that of the Hub In Chicago, known aa one of the model men's stores In America. 'In all metropolitan cities,? said Mr. Swanson, "there is a large number of men who, while not 'freakish,' are careful dress ers. They want stylish dependable gar ments at fair prices. They want complete lines of styles and fabrics to select from and they don't want to pay fancy prices for the sake of doing business with a came. That Is the class the moat desirable in the city that we Intend to cater to. The Berg- Swanson Co. will carry complete assort ments, showing every deuirable and season able production and giving every customer the guarantee of proper style, fit, finish and quality at a satisfactory price. In other words, we believe our experience and capfr- tal will enable us to run such a' store that Omaha men can come here and feel sure of obtaining Just what they want In cloth ing and, furnishing lines at the lowest prices at which they can possibly be sold anywhere In America." A corps of courteous and attentive sales men will always be ready to show you through the, store and give you every pos sible attention. Particular attention will be given the fit of every garment sold always giving the customer the particular style or cut best suited to his slse or build and own per sonal tastes. In their boys and youths' department will be found complete lines of the novelties as well as the staples In unrivalled completeness. The furnishings and hat departments are replete with all the new things the season haa produced. In fact the most particular dressers la Omaha can come to this store and find their every want realised. It will be worth the time of every person to pay a visit to this store on Its opening day, Saturday, August SO.
