Tba railroad yards In I his city were tlj Fcpt:e of unusual excitement, last evening snd for a time it was feared that bloodshed would result from a strained condition of affairs. It seems the railroad company had Issued orders to move several cars and a (ran: of Italian laborer to 'Dakota City to continue work on the tracks of the road. The laborers have been, ensured In misl'ig thfl traces here for several weeks and have lind some trouble about ovnrtlme; a number of 1hm having; been itliieharged last wee!: for refunlng- to work after certain overtime alloSvnnce hod been withheld. Since Sunday the g-.-ina liat bxu In: 'mtllcn mood and yestetday when order came to move tlum north they openly rebelled, positively refus ing to go any farther north on account of the cold weather, and anklnir for thcr tine I'heck. These the con'ip-jny niudc no liaMe to Issue and wrnt ahettd with preparations to move the cars which were occupied by the laborers for Jiving- purposes. The climax' came last evening when the crew nnd spcc'iU engine sent down from Wymore found , the switch spiked and a sullen ran of thirty Italians Dtandln? guard ;wlth revolvc-s and knives In pro fusion. The maddened workmen gave It out In broken English that they would sht. the first person who attempted to draw the spikes or remove their cars until a satisfac tory settlement was made, and thr-y were furnished transportation back to Chicago. a they alleged was a greed upon when they hega.n their work last spring. Superintend ent Roger of Wvuiore, who evidently did not undeitHAnd the danger of tho situation, gave orders that the cars be taken, leaving the gang here, but this they refused to permit, and when it was urged that the local authorities be called upon to aid the section gang and agent in the tak f;w were found who cared to assumo the re sponsibility of meeting a crowd of that kind in -the dark.' Finally, upon advice of the foreman. J. I Harris, who speaks the Italian kngun;e and ha been with crews of this kind tor yeuru, the men were per mitted to remain in their cars over nleht and the crew Fent back empty handed. This morning the trouble was renewed and vnri oub jiUji were propoM. but all to no pur rose, the gang standing to its poeltlon. KlnaJly orders were lgucd to bring the men and cars to Wymore, where time checks vould be Issued and the matter settled.

NORFOLK, Neb., Nov. 1,-t8pecial.)-A railroad pau3 tendered to and accepted by a judge is not a bribe unless it ts given and accepted with the explicit understand ing that it Is a bribe, according to former United Rtates Senator William V. Allen of Nebraska, one of tile foremost fusion statesmen of Ms time, who was declared by Mr. Bryan, In ills cpeech here. I to have been the greatest friend of the people ever went to the s -imte from Nebraska. "I am In hearty accord with my party and le!!evp in the election of the fusion ticket from top to bottom," said Senator J Alien. "There la no doubt that the pass system Is an evil Incident to the private ownership of railroads, and probably It will only disappear entirely with govern ment ownership. I do not believe that a pass In a bribe unless it Is given and ac cepted as a bribe, and I do not believe that there Is a Judge in the state of Ne braska whose decisions or official conduct have been Influenced by a pass. Many of the Judges hsve fallen into the habit of accepting passes when tendered them, bu I have too high appreciation of their per sonal worth and Integrity to believe that any of them have been swerved from the path of duty by a paus. Tet I think the pass, like tho rebate, should speedily dis appear, but in my Judgment this can only be accomplished by nationalising the roads. I have no doubt that Judges of our court will observe the public wish on the subject of passes. If a pass Is now to be con sidered a bribe, every president, including the present incumbent, from Lincoln down, has been bribed, for the railroads have furnished them free transportation by the trainload until about a year ago. when President Roosevelt declined to accept ac commodations from the, roads." ; Omaba Wo at a a Waated.

That the republicans of Lincoln are not In sympathy with the candidacy of Rene gade Williams, who betrayed the repub licans of Pierce county In order to secure the nomination for railroad commissioner at the hands of the republican rtate con vention, was demonstrsted at the meeting; at the Auditorium last night. Ned Brown, who was considered most excellent timber by both the Wlnnett and Ludden factions of the Lancaster republicans, mad ths, first speech of the evening. He t dwelt upon the fitness for raiixoad commissioners of Robert Cowell and . Dr. H. J. Wlnnett of this city. These two men, he said, were Ideal men for the place, but about Williams he was sllcnL Of course it was embarrassing at a meeting such as that last night not to endorse all the candidates for railroad commissioner, but Ned Brown had the honesty not to stultify himself by endorsing the candidacy of Renegade Willi" n.n. The position he took last night is significant of the opinion the repub licans of Lancaster county have of the man who sold his houor. betrayed his con stituents and stultified himself for the saks of a political nomination. Democrats Are laslaeere. Though the democrats of the First con gressional district are making much ado about Congressman Pollard drawing $1,909 from the national treasury, from the time ths term of his predecesor expired, they are saying nothing of the fact that Con gressman Neville, democrat, did the same thing under practically the same circum stances, only he got more thsn twice as much money. Mr. Neville was elected to fill the unexpired term of Congressman Green of the Sixth district, who died in Omaha March 11, 1889. Inasmuch as Rich ard L. Metcalfe, then editor of the World Herald, knew of this fact and still gave Neville his support for 'a second term, proves to the satisfaction of Chairman Teegurden of the congressional committee that Metcalfe and his democratic friends are as usual Insincere and are Jumping on Pollard merely because he Is a republican and not a member of the democratic party. Mr. Teegtrden has Issued the following statement regarding the matter: Ths facts about Mr. Neville's acceptance of salary for a period during which he wan not a congressman were made public In ltfciO, when he was a candidate for re election, and at that time Mr. Neville had ( 1 x - m ) 1 till j i The EestC tines and tho Best Clothes Shop Three reasons why thia is trut of our cloihwa and our store and what Is more, our garments back upevery claim we make 1st Over a dozn of America's bssl tailors, de signed and made our clothe each with a name that mans something In tailorland.

Green, then congreBsman from the Sixth Nebraska district, died In Omaha on the 11th of March, 1HSH. The records of the set(5eant-at-arms of the house of rep resentatives show that the Green heirs drew pay from March 4 to June 3, lttf, receiving $1,150. Later congress when in session, following the usual custom, voted to the Green family the remainder of tho 5.0f) for the year. The same records show that In December Mr. Neville drew from the disbursing officer of the house the sum of t.3.640-40, covering the salary from March 11, the date of Mr. Green's death, to December 3. 1K, although Mr. Neville was not elected until November. WW. In accepting that money Mr.' Neville fol lowed the custom and the law, even though he was known as a reformer. His case Is not exactly on all fours with -that of Mr. Pollard because he took the money at the same time that congress paid a similar sum to the widow of the dead member, tho government thus paying a second time. Otherwise it is the same. Little In Lumber Case So Far. Nothing of importance was brought out In the alleged Lumber trust hearing today, the entire time being taken up with the read ing of letters found in the correspondence of Secretary Critchfleld and the numbers of the Lumber Dealers' association. These were introduced by JudgeSinclair for the state, who sorted them out frmn LW9 or more which have been brought into court. The letters Introduced showed a number of complaints were made by members of the association, because acme wholesale houses hnd sold direct to a consumer In stead of through the retail dealer. Other letters referred to the rating of firms and others regarding the grade of lumber sept out by the wholesale dealers. In one-Instance letters showed the secretary had tent out an agent to see about the grad-5 of lumber. None of the letters referred to the fixing of prices to be paid or charged for lumber. Judge Sinclair la now merely laying the foundation. of his case and expects. later to have witnesses here from out in tbe state to testify. On the other hand the. lawyers for the lumber dealers say the n!y e-i. deuce the state will be able to produce Is that the statu association has tried to prevent the wholesale houses from sellinK direct to the consumer, but to sell to th! retail dealer. This they claim is not con trary to law. Haller Heads Library Commission. At the regular quarterly meeting of the Nebraska State Library commission Chan cellor Andrews resigned as president and F. L' Haller of Omaha was elected to fill the vacancy. The commission accepted the resignation of the chancellcr with reluctance, but he declared he wanted to devote mist of his timo during the session of the legislatu e to the interests of the State university. Mr. Haller was president of the commis sion prior to the term of Chancellor An drews. The commission will ask. for an -appropriation of 310,001 for th work during the next blennlum.
