'X retired farmer from Marihall county,
Iowa, who baa the right to alga hla check
(or aa much aa fjO.000 any time he pleases,
haa bean bringing lota of joy to varloua
t Omalians during- the last few weeks, lie la
: S known as Alex Schurman and he Iibh a
mania (or buying thing. Inasmuch as
i . the checks he gave In payment have len
't promptly cashed, a hoat of new friends
are still friendly and are patiently waiting
i for the next visit of Mr. Schurman In
i order to load him up with the remaining
half of the negotiable personal property
! of the olty. . . ...
j On brief trip to Omaha resulted in the
following purchases by Mr. Bchurman, ac
cording to the statistics at present'at hand:
bne $5,000 music store stock, which he
haa stored; any amount of gold, silver and
copper stork In western mines; six homes
and -six buggies, stored at several livery
stables; four hornes, bought but not col
lected; furniture adequate to stock a hotel;
elslit or nine overcoats obtained from the
wearers because they pleased Mr. Schur
tnan's fancy, and a vast lot of small col
lateral distributed at various points within
the city Mmlts.
Mr. Schurman made his debut In Omaha
by HUdiienly appearing In a popular bar
one day and walking up' to a well-dressed
(nun, whom he tapped on the shoulder and
addressed:
. Likes the Goods.
"I beg your pardon, but I like your over
coat. How much do you want for It?"
The Individual addressed was offended
and made an Irritable remark.
"Oh, that's aU right," auld the Iowa
man, and he pulled out a card about four
Inches square. The conversation closed
by Echurmati buying the coat, which coat
possibly t3, for 0, and then declining to
tuka (t for the present, saying that to de
prive the original owner would be a hard
ship to him. But the transaction was
ended by the usual check. '
The same day he went out on the street
and t.ought two hortcs for round sums,
presenting checks and telling the sellers
that he would call for the propety later.
To remonstrances from- business acquaint
ances he said:
"Oh, God Is with them. They can't get
away from him. My property Is perfectly
safe."
Other things he bought In the same way,
postponing delivery, but paying cash. Some
of the parties he dealt with Insisted upon
turning the goods over to him, however,
and as a result the livery ptables and
storage houat-s were, called Into service.
The Joy that Schurman brought was not
restrained to the few, and when he left the
city there were at least a dosen volunteers
at his hotel offering to pilot'- him to the
station. He seemed to be Incapable of
refusing any of them, but a local business
man tlnally Induced him to run the
gauntlet and got him safely on the train.
Made Money oa Farm.
Ah nearly as can be ascertained, Schur
man mado hli) snug fortune on a large
farm, became interested In Christian
Science, leased lits farm and moved Into a
small town. He has a wife and family
and contemplated going Into the munio
store business. That is what Induced him
to come to Omaha. Inquiries of persons
from whom he had made purchases brought
the story out and was related by a business
man whom Schunnan had made his con
rid int.
"I am not positive that Schurman Is the
man's right name," said he, "but his checks
are honored immediately and I have been
toll that he has at least H0. 000 In the
bank."

TO HEAD OFF GREAT WESTERN
Mason Street Property Owner Applies
, for Federal Coart Injunction
to Ordinance.
Samuel Reichnnberg aguinat the Mason
City & Fort Dodge Railway Company (the
Chicago Great Western) Is the title of an
injunction suit brought In the United States
circuit court.
The complainant alleges that he Is the
owner of certain property In , Kountze tz
Ruth's addition to the city of Omaha, lo
cated on the west sldo of Nineteenth street,
between Leavenworth and Mason streets.
This property he Is occupying as1 a home.
The petition further states that the city
council of Omaha has given to the respond
entH, without any consideration therefor,
the use of said Mason street between the
south line of the complainant's
property and , Mason street. and
by reason thereof the complainant's
property Is reduced between thirty and
forty feet, by the vacation of said street
and the re-eBtabllthment of the grade of
the street, without compensating the ad
jacent property owners.
The complainant therefore asks that a
writ of injunction be issued out of the
United Stutes circuit court restraining the
enforcement of the ordinance and the oc
cupation of Mason street by the respond
ents. No date has yet been fixed by the court
for the final hearing of the case, though
under the court rules It may not be heard

Captain II. S. Kellogg, president of the
Saona Island Development company, haa
recently arrived in this city to confer, re
garding certain matters connected with the
management of the company,' with David
C. Patterson. 601 South Twenty-eighth
street, an Omaha real estate man, who has
apent some time In Ban Domingo. He re
fuses to be4 Interviewed regarding the situ
ation In the Island, but Mr. Patterson haa
explained some details of affairs, in that
place. He says:
"The revolution in San Domingo Is of
considerable Interest to a syndicate of i
Omaht citizens who, some time ago,
through President Jlmlnes, now the head ,
of the present revolution, secured a valua
ble concession for a railroad and for Immi
gration purposes. These concessions pro
vided that the government should pay the
cost of the construction of the railroad, in
terest thereon, and the fare of all Immi
grants brought in. To guarantee these
payments the government set apart and
assigned 63 per cent of the customs re
ceipts. These concesxions cannot be an
nulled by any subsequent administration
and resulted in a political Issue against
Jlmlnei by his enemies, who maintained
that the concession In effect would give
the Omaha syndicate control of the rail
roads of the country at the expense of the
government, and also enable foreigners to
bring in Immigrants at government ex
pense. This would result in the Domini
cans losing control of the Island, it was
argued.
Coald Kot Sappreas War.
"Jlmlnes was unable to supress the
revolution which soon followed, and was
succeeded by his vice president, Vasques,
Within one year Vasques was overthrown
by General - Oil. and now It seems that
Jimtnes and his army are in control of
the country and have Oil surrounded In
Ban Domingo City.
"The revolution now in progress Is the
usual method of holding elections down
south, but little blood will be spilled, and
the vanquished, while their feelings may
be hurt, need not wait four yeara for a
new election, but can try their chances
again soon if they have any following or
money. The revolution last year occurred
while we were surveying fol the railroad
and It was over before we heard of It.
Foreigners there take but little Interest
In these revolutions, or elections, as all
political partlea are careful not to molest
foreigners or their property, and all the
augar plantations and large Industries are
owned by foreigners.
"Vasques and Oil are both very able poli
ticians, and Jlmlnes Is a superior man In
business affairs, but Is not regarded as so
able a military man aa the others. He was
regarded by the business men when presi
dent before aa too liberal, and trouble waa
predicted for him when he Invited all ex
iles to return. He la the son of a former
president, and made a large fortune lu ex
porting tualtogany from the leiaud; It was
his b kiuckS aucceea and skill la gaining
I political Influence which caused President
i HeureauY tn evil him. Ha was In New
York at the opening of the Cuban war. and
when our government chartered the steamer
Fan: la ar.d loaded It with 3,000 rifles and
1,000,000 rounds of ammunition together with
other accoutrements of war It was placed
In charge of General Jlmlnes, ostensibly
to be taken to aid General Gomes in Cuba.
Why this vessel was placed In charge of an
exiled Dominican haa never been known.
The Navy and War departments both say
there are no records bearing upon the mat
ter. "Instead of going to the assistance of his
former friend, General Gomes, In Cuba,
JImlnea sailed straight by Cuba, and at
his own peril ordered an attack on Ban
Domingo. A atop waa made at a British
Isle and a pilot engaged, after which a
landing waa made at Cape Haytl, where
nine recruits were taken on board. At mid
night in May, 189$, the Fanlta, flying the
Stars and Stripes, anchored In the Bay of
Monte Cristo. Armed to the teeth Jlml
nes led his few followers to the shore and
captured the governor. His Intention was
to capture the garrison and organise an
army to march on Ban Domingo city, but
the garrison was not surprised. It gave
him a warm reception and he was only able
to escape to the Fanlta. The pilot was re
turned to the British Isle, where Jlmlnes
was arrested for violation of the foreign
enlistment act.
"At the second trial at Nassau (the first
resulted In a disagreement) he was ac
quitted and fled to Europe, as he dared not
go to Cuba to meet Gomes or land In the
United States to meet certain arrest. Mat
ters here became strained, with the United
States. A government vessel had been; en
gaged In a conspiracy to overthrow the
government of Ban Domingo and heavy
damages were to be demanded. But a
cruiser waa sent to Ban Domingo, explana
tions and apologiea were made and Presi
dent Heureaux waa pacified. The following
year Heureaux waa assassinated, Jlmlnes
was elected president and peace prevailed
for some two years. He was then over
thrown by Vasques. His experiences since
In regaining power must be very Interesting
history."

GRAIN EXCHANGE AND WATER
Former is Advocated by Local Men and
Irrigation by Maxwell.
MEETING AT REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE
Strong; Appeals Are Mado to Business
Men of bask la Behalf of.
These Elements of
Success.
The Real ' Estate exchange yester
day listened to addresses by George
II. Maxwell on national Irrigation
and G. W. Wattles and A. L.
Reed on the Omaha Grain exchange, and
passed a resolution condemning the pro
posed action at the city council In making
a street corner advertising contract, and
appointing a committee of fifteen to wait
upon the council Monday to protest. Mr.
Wattles said:
"I don't think it necessary to speak at
length to you gentlemen who are so Inter-1
rated In the growth of Omaha on the grain
exchange. You all know what it attempts.
Its officers are working to build up here
an enterprise of great benefit to every busi
ness In the city. The principal product of
the territory on which Omaha depends Is
grain. Thla does and always has passed
through this city and around it to our com
petitors. We are bidding for trade In this
community without trying to tuke In re
turn their principal product. This condi
tion would have continued probably for
years, but there comes here a railroad
which without a cent of expense to us
offers to put In rales which will enable ua
to make a grain market in Omaha We
once voted to raise $700,000 In bonds for a
road which would do this, but the road was
never built because of hard times. Now the
Chicago Great Western offers to do all this.
We will have to meet a strong opposition
from some sources which believe they will
be Injured by the change, and for this we
will need a strong corporation with a large
fund. I hope no opposition will rise, for it
will have to go down."
George H. Maxwell mads an impassioned
attempt to arouse the members to an ef
fort looking to a broadening of the Irriga
tion laws. He aaid that he had devoted
fifteen of his best years and $20,030 of his
own money to the work and raised over
1300,000 for its advancement, and wanted no
reward but eucoeas. He pointed out that
the greatest way to Improve Omaha waa
to Increase the population of the slate,
and said that If the Irrigation work possible
on the North Platte were carried out as
soon as possible the population of Omaha
and the state could be doubled In ten years.
The thing that must be done waa by local
organization to' create such an influence on
the state legislature and on congress that
the national Irrigation laws be amende!
ao that the secretary of the treasury, could
make loans to the irrigation fund f.r Im
mediate use. If this waa not done tne
North Platte work might not be .dona tor
many yeara and perhaps never, ai.d ' the
western half of tte state would be aband
oned to gracing. Annually, according to
Mr. Maxwell's figures, the North liatte
furnished 4.000,000 acre-feet of water which
went to waste, which If stored would re
claim over 1,000,000 aorea In Nebraska.
