LYNCHING SUSPECT FREED ON ALIBI
Eagles Swear Cornell Could Not Have
Led Mob, na He Was Boar
t Carnival at the
Time.
WILMINGTON, June 26. The danger of
further lawlessness as a result of the
lynching of George White has not yet
passed. While there Is no visible evidence
that another outbreak will occur, the po
lice are so uneasy that they have taken
extreme measures to nip any further racial
outbreaks In the bud.
Late this evening every saloon keeper in
the city was ordered to suspend business
until tomorrow. In addition to this all
publlo places, such as blllard rooms, bowl
Ing alleys and the publlo libraries were
closed.
The lawless element among the colored
people Is lrrgely blamed for the disorder
of the last two nights. . It Is said that In
certain parts of the town they marched
through the streets and roughly handled
any white person who dared stand In their
way. On the other hand, the whites, and
some of them of the better class, are not
held blameless. There have been Instances
during the last day In which white men
and boys were the aggressors.
Warn Police to Drop Lynching;.
It .is known that certain prominent citl
sens have suggested to the police that fur
ther lynching arrests would be inadvisable
in view of the disorder caused by the ar
rest of Arthur Cornell, who was released
today for want of evidence.
At the preliminary hearing various offi
cials swore they saw Cornell in the front
ranks of the mob. In opposition to this
members of the Fraternal Order of Eagles,
of which he Is a member, said he was at
their carnival and did nut get back to
Wilmington till after midnight. When the
magistrate released Cornell he was taken
In charge by members of the Order of
Eagle. Hs was supplied with funds and
this afternoon he left for the west.
William Cramer, the colored man shot
Inst night, died tonight. Contrary to po
lice reports Cramer was shot by William
Bliuma, a man of his own color. The two
men got into an argument In a restaurant
over the White lynching. Blrami was
given a hearing today and held without
ball to await the action of the coroner.
The courts acted promptly on several
cases growing out of last night's disturb
ances and some of those under arrest
were "railroaded."
Leander McCord, who was one of the
crowd of rioters at Ninth and King streets
last night, was sentenced to one year's
Imprisonment In the workhouse.
Eugene Johnson, colored, who was ar
rested for carrying concealed weapons, was
held In S200 bail for the upper court.
Joseph Bhockley, colored, who was ar
rested for firing a pistol In a crowd last
night, was fined $50 and costs. John Loyce,
a colored workmen, was sentenced to six
months' Imprisonment.

TROUBLE WAITS ALL MANUFACTURERS
Likely to Have a Lawsuit Before They
Itesra Pay for Work Dono
at the State Pes-Itontlary.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, June (Special.) Should the
decision of Judge Holmes of the Lancaster
county district court be affirmed by the su
preme court, whence It will be Immediately
appeuled, legislative sessions In Nebraska
will hereafter be limited to forty days and
the pay of members 13 a day Instead of S3.
This decision waa rendered in a suit
brought by former Supreme Court Commis
sioner Kyan against the auditor to prevent
the payment of claims of members. The
suit was begun during the last session, but
the legislators were permitted to draw
their money before the order of Injunction
was served. Mr. Ryan says he wants to
show that the legislature cannot amend
the constitution by special act, and neither
will It be permitted to disregard the stat
utes and the written constitution and count
In any constitutional amendment a ma
jority of Its members desire carried.
The amendment extending the length of
sessions and Increasing the pay was sub
mitted in 18SG. Tho first returns as col
lected by the secretary of state showed its
defeat by several thousand. When the
legislature met and canvassed the returns
It met in joint session and declared this
amendment lost. Later a scheme was
worked up by which a recount was ordered
by a special act, and it was this act which
Ryan attacked on the ground that it was
special legislation and sought to amend for
one specific purpose a general law to which
It was contradictory In terms. In pausing
upon ths question Judge Holmes said:
Opinion of Conrt.
The question, therefore. nresented hv the
controversy In this action is whether a
legislature may naas a snerlal act hv whlrh
a constitutional amendment may be counted
wnenever ror any reason It suits the pleas
tire of a majority of the legislature to adopt
such a course of procedure.
it is conceded by the parties that the
statutes and the constitution make no pro
vision for canvassing the result of the
vote on constitutional amendments either
by the legislature or by the Board of State
Canvassers, but upon this both are silent.
Clearly the creation of a canvassing
board by the special act of 1S87 for a r-
cially denned purpose, this board so created
was ciomea wnn power to supersede the
function of the Judges of election, with
power to make returns of the result, ig
noring the canvass by the several county
clerks and their assistants, and the ab
stract of votes required In pursuance of
such canvass, the power of making and
transmitting Its findings and declaring the
result to the governor. The governor was
required if. upon the report of the board, It
appeared that the amendment was adopted
according to law, to Issue his proclamation
to the effect that the same was adopted, a
procedure in conflict with section 1, article
xv. of the constitution.
This act repeals by Implication at least
sections of chapter xxvl of the Compiled
Statutes defining the duties of Judges of
election, substituting for the several elec
tion boards a board created under the pro
visions of this act; repealing of chapter
xxvl, requiring county clerks to safely
keep in their custody the poll books and
ballots; likewise It undertook to provide
for conducting an election to provide the
method of ascertaining and declaring the
result of an election contrary to the pro
visions of the law then In force.
It seems to this court that this kind of
legislation Is In direct conflict with sec
tion t, article xv, of the constitution,
namely: "The legislature shall not pass
local or special laws In any of the follow
ing cases, that is to say, the opening and
conducting of any elections, and in all
cases where a general law can be made
applicable no special law shall be
enacted." The determination of the result
of the vote on the constitutional amend
ment was provided for by general law and
In event this law should be made applicable
no special should be enacted. The legisla
ture having recognized the proper mode or
firocedure and having canvassed the votes
it Joint sessions and having declared the
proposition lost and then adjourned with
out day, had lost all power to proceed
further, and had there been any doubt as
to the result of the vote on this legislative
amendment might possibly have had the
power to demand the ballots for inspection
and a recount, but this question is not im
portant In determining the case at bar.
It seems to this court that a fair test as
to whether or not the act In controversy
was of a special nature Is the answer to
the question as to whether this act could
apply to the canvass of any other vote that
may be hereafter had upon an amendment
to the constitution. It wMl not be contended
that it would so apply, that It was for the
one amendment, and the one only, there
can be no question. The act has served Its
purpose, ana was special in its character.
Its Durnose and In Its results, and as this
court has previously said the object of
this litigation Is not apparent to the court,
and its purposes not fully understood, yet
it seems clear to my mind that the act
comDlalned of was In direct conflict with
the constitution of this state, special In Its
nature and therefor Invalid, and that the
proceedings had thereunder were without
due authority of law. and it follows there
fore that the acts of the auditor In drawing
warrants for the pay of members .of the
legislature other than as directed by sec
tion 4. article 111, of the constitution, was in
direct violation or law.
Wherefore this court Is of the oninlon
that the plaintiff Is entitled to the relief
prayed for In his petition, which was that
a temporary injunction Issue restraining
the auditor from allowlnr the claims of the
members of the legislature for a period in
excess of forty days, and that on the final
hearing a perpetual injunction of the same
character shall Issue prohibiting payment of
legislators in excess or forty days and at
the rats or S3 per aay.
Coll Makers May Have Trouble
It is hinted In statehouse circles that
when the VanDoran company of Cleve
land, O., attempts to draw or market the
warrants it expects to receive In exchange
for the steel cells furnished the state pen
itentiary it will And it has run Into a big
lawsuit. The last legislature appropriated
$80,000 for 210 cells and sewage. When the
board let the contract some three weeks
ago the VanDoran people got the contract
for building 146 cells for SU9.000. Just what
authority the auditor will have to draw a
warrant for $",9.000 In payment for 146 cells,
when the legislature appropriated SSO.OOO to
buy 140 c-lls. Is what wlil cause trouble.
Under the law as heretofore construed
they might pay less, but never more. Tho
board has contracted to pay (111 a cell
more than the legislature authorized them
to. It Is claimed by attorneys that where
the legislature makes on appropriation for
the purchase of a specific number of ar
ticles at a specified cost there could be no
valid agreement to buy them at an en
hanced coat.
Harvest Hands Wanted
Deputy Labor Commissioner Bush Is in
receipt of a number of letters from vmtIous
portions of th state asking for aid In se
curing harvest hands. Applications have
bten received for some 2uu from different
towns in Nebraska. In each instance some
Individual has taken it upon himself )o
write voicing the needs of his vicinity, and
each correspondent has claimed thut there
Is employment for at least fifty men In
his neighborhood. Whxrever the subject
of wages Is mentioned. It is placed at 12
per diem, which presumably Includes board,
and It Is stated that the work will con
tinue about three months through harvest
ing and threshing.
Information for Teachers.
State Superintendent Fowler has his office
force busily engaged In packing and send
ing out by express large bundles of books
for the information of teachers and school
authorities all over the state. lie Is send
ing to each of the more than S.0OU teachers
In the state a copy each of a booklet set

teachers' munuul for district and village
schools, another setting out school laws
that are of special Interest to the teacher,
and aa ornate publication that outline
programt for the observance of special
days In the publlo schools.
For ths Information of school authorities
generally, he Is also sending to the officer
of each of the (.606 school districts In the
stats a copy of a publication dealing with
ths school laws snd school land laws of
ths state. Quit a number of blank book
essential to ths uonduct of the schools are
also being sent out.
Ills Wandering Boy.
Representative ttelee Dernier of Elm
wood, Cass county, was In Lincoln today
enroute horn from a trip to Ban Francisco
whither hs went to visit his son, Chester,
who la an enlisted sailor on the battleship
New York, which Is In dry dock there. The
boy is only IS year old. He left horn
last year with a railroad urveylng party
snd, drifting Into the state of Washington,
he took advantage of an opportunity to en
list In the navy. He wrote his father that
he had done so In order that hs might ses
something of the world.
After having thoroughly Inquired Into the
boy's position and opportunities, Mr. Deles
Dernier Is convinced that there is not a
favorable opening for his boy In the navy
and proposes to take the matter up with
the Navy department In an endeavor to se
cure his release, as he was under ags at
the time of his enlistment last November.
8nnk Denisrragt Han.
Before adjourning their convention here
the coal dealers of Nebraska and Iowa
declnred their objection to a system that
compels them tq deal with representatives
of the demurrage bureau Instead of with
the railroad companies direct.
Another resolution demanded that railway
companies furnish scale at central p tints
for the weighing of coal neat Its destina
tion, so that dealers may have a check
upon shortages, which now cause them great
loss and grief. It was claimed that it is
not uncommon for a dealer to find a car
of coal a ton short from leakage or shrink
age, due largely to the freedom with which
people along railroad lines avoid the em
barrassments of meeting the coal man face
to face. This Is especls'ly true of the better
classes of coal, for whic). reason some deal
ers endeavor to confine their trade a
nearly as possible to steam coal and ths
cheaper grades.
It was stated at the close of the con
vention that the grievance of dealers will
be presented to the railways with an appeal
for relief, and If it brings no response an
application will probably be made to the
legislature.
Liquor Dealers Not Active.
Ono of the ardent advocates of the com
mutation of the sentence of Rhea has
stated that It Is the conviction of the prison
reform association officers that the liquor
dealers' organization In this state has
pressed the prosecution snd conviction of
Rhea because his victim was a saloonkeeper
and that organisation Is now exerting itself
covertly to prevent a commutation. Thire
was no Intimation that this organization
was supposed to have any very reliable pull
with the governor.
Local members of the association of liquor
dealers deny that that organisation has
ever taken any part In the prosecution or
exerted Itself in any way, unless possibly
some of the members may as Individuals
have Blgned the petitions that have been in
circulation asking the governor to let the
law take Its course. Lincoln members did
not ven know that any liquor dealers had
even done that.
NORFOLK STARTS TO PAVE
Propose to Surface Two of Principal
Streets of City This
Season.
NORFOLK, Neb., June 26.--(Special.)
Norfolk is to be partially paved in the near
future. Definite steps toward this end were
taken this morning--when Mayor Hasen
started out with a petition to property
owners. The paper calls for paving on
Norfolk avenue l-ctween Second and Fifth
streets, nnd on Fourth street between
Braasch and Madison avenues, which will
Include the new 1100,000 government struc
ture now building. There has been agita
tion toward this movement for years, but
never before has anything definite been
done. Norfolk is now considered ripe for
Improvements of this type, because it has
been made a city of permanency by this
season's developments. The fact that the
Northwestern railroad is investing $140,000
In an entirely new system of yards, tracks
and machine shops, where locomotives will
be practically rebuilt, the state $100,000 in
reconstructing the Hospital for the Insane
and the national government $100,000 In a
federal building, besides numerous other
heavy Improvements about town, among
which may be noted the new gas plant, a
prospective electric line, a general change
In hotels, mills, foundries and industrial
establishments, and thj erection of at least
100 homes.

the verdict of the Jury being that deceased

sufficient means to pass the remaining
years of his life comfortably, being about

A Well Known Journalist Writes. ,
Hon. George Baber, 1122 Sixteenth street,

number of years well known in Kentucky
as a journalist, having been .the editor of
the Bowling Green Democrat and after
wards the proprietor snd editor of the
Louisville Evening News, and pf the Ken
tucky Law Journal. He writes the follow
ing: "I have given Peruna a sufficient test to
Justify me In freely recommending It as an
Invigorating tonic. It Is a prompt appe
tizer, and has also proveed In my own ex
perience to be conducive to sound and rest
ful sleep. A member of my family found it
efficacious in the treatment of catarrhal
tendencies and an effective remedy for an
annoying cough. Every household should
be provided with It." George Babere.
The day was when men of prominence
hesitated to give their testimonials to pro
prietary medicines for publication. This
remains true today of most proprietary
medicines. But Peruna has become so
Justly fumous. Its merits are known to so
many people of high and low station, that
no one herniates to see his nam In print
recommending Peruna.
The highest men In our nation have given
Peruna a strong endorsement. Men of all
classes and stations are equally repre

Peculiar nnd Pnlntnl Accident.
HUMBOLDT, Neb., June 2. (Special.)
Miss Ollle Wilson last night suffered a
painful tccldent which came very near
robbing her of the use of one of her hands.
When the rainstorm came up she arose to
shut down a window, and as sho loosened
the catch placed her hand on tho window
pane to steady the sash In Its descent. The
fact that a hole had been broken In the
lower pane slipped her mind and she did
not notice that instead of her hand resting
against that pane It had passed through the
hole In the sash and was resting against
the pane in the upper sash. When the
catch was released the heavy sash fell, the
jagged edge of the glass striking her hand
across the back and almost severing it.
The tendons snd bones were laid bare and
It Is feared that permanent Injury may have
been done to the former.
