has been serloualy alck and was unablo to

La Kennedy, 40J South Fortieth street.
News of the death came to the family In
Omaha and also to John W. Robblns, Mr.
Hanscom's local business representative. In
telegrams early Wednesday from Miss
Hanscom. It soon spread over the cltv
which Mr. Hanscom hrlped to build and
where he was known by everybody one
way or another. The news waa no shock,
as It had been apprehended for some time.
Mr. Hanscom waa sick for a considerable
period.
Mr. Hanscom had survived his wife. They
leave three children living, Mrs. George E.
Prltchett, who woe Harriet Oeorgle; Miss
Virginia Catherine and James Daune Hans
com. Two children died In Infancy.
Omaha Pioneer In Erery Way.
Andrew J. Hanscom was an Omaha pi
oneer In fie broadest sense of the word.
He 'came here In the autumn of 1854 a closn
follower of Major William P. Bnowden, who
Is acknowledged to be the first white set
tler on the ground that now comprises the
clPy of Omaha. From 1854 until he removed
to New Tork a few years ago, Mr. Hanscom
iva a continuous resident of this city. He
was1, born at Detroit, Mich., February 23.
1828. . .
Mr. Hanscom was one of the men who
helped make Omaha and the state of Ne
braska. His name Is Indelibly Impressed
upon every page of the early history of
state and city. He saw Omaha grow from
a frontier steamboat landing Into a metro
politan city; he saw Nebraska grow from
a treeless plain Into a populous state and
he was a prominent factor all the while.
As to wealth, few men have been more
successful. He leaves an estate estimated
from $1,000,000 to 14.000,000. Fortunate hold
ings In real estate acquired when land was
oheap, and the shrewdness to build upon
the foundation thus laid, account for the
financial achievements of this departed pi
oneer. . How II Cam to Omnha.
But for the California gold excitement,
Mr. Hanscom might never have been a
resident of Omaha. He was a '49er and
reached Council Bluffs on his way to tho
coast In that memorable year. Council
Bluffs at that time bid fair to become a
prosperous ' city.1 although It had not
emerged front the embryo stage. Mr. Hans
com was Impressed with the possibilities of
a future there and his California project
' , abandoned-,. Ha had married beforo
Aving Detroit and arter deciding to locate
In Council BluC, he sent for his wife. Ho
had some means, and he. built a mill and
HI so ''Hli(W' hTTn?rcnanTfslrig Truo ''til
the foresight and business tact that after
wards became such a predominating char
acteristic, Mr. Hanscom was one of the
flrat to see that Omaha was duatlned to
outdistance Council Bluffs . In commercial
supremacy. He chanced locating here and
that chance Was a winner.
Along with his other accomplishments.
Mr. Hanscom was versed in law, and was
a practitioner here In the pioneer days.
Real estate, however, was his strong forto
and In later years his large holdings de
manded all his attention. He pre-empted
4j0 acres of land In what la now the south
west part of the city then an untenanted
waste, the ewnership of which did not
seem to be particularly desired by his lesat
sagacioua neighbors. He also bought
"claims" from numerous settlers who be
oame discouraged In tbe midst of their
primitive surroundings.
Speaker Territorial Hooae.
Mr. Hanscom was the speaker of the first
legislature of the territory of Nebraska,
which assembled In Omaha Tuesday, Janu
ary 16, 1865. He was at that time perhaps
the most widely known character In the
sparsely settled territory. He also served
In the next session. Another distinction
was his membership In the first Board of
Education ever organized In Omaha and he
was also a member of the city council In
the early days.
It seemed that Andrew J. Hanscom pos
sessed the magic of Aladdin, for every ven
ture he undertook was climaxed with tri
umph. The first pretentious residence built
ln Omaha was the Hanscom home on
grounds bounded by Capitol avenue and
Davenport streets on the south and north,
and Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets on
the east and west. It was at the time of
Us erection perhaps the most costly inan
alon In any of the Missouri river-cities.
Mr. Hanscom subsequently sold it. The
first substantial building In Omaha was
built by Mr. Hanscom at the southwest
corner of Fifteenth and Farnom streets.
The second real estate transfer ever re
corded In Douglas county Involved the
name of Mr. Hanscom as purchaser $000
for six lots that could not now bo bought
for many, many times that sum. In 1S66
Trinity cathedral wus organised on a very
modest plan. As in altnobt everything else,
Andrew J- Hanscom was nrst and his name
was enrolled as one of the original parish
ioners. Trinity cathedral of 1&6 was Httl
like the Trinity cathedral of today, it was
an humble shanty on lower Farnam street
built on- ground that nobody claimed.
Park to Perpetuate arae.
Perhaps the une' set above all others that
stands as a monument to the memory of
Andrew J. Hanscom as Mm presentation
to the city of the beautiful park that Wars
his nume. In October, 1372. Mr. Hanscom
and James Q. Megeath donated fltty-seveu
and one-half acres of land In the south
western port of the city to be used for park
purposes-cite oaly stipulation being that
li:e municipality should make certain ini
provtiieou from time to time. The land
thus donated was a part of the Mm acres
pre-empted by Mr. Hanscom when he first
located here.
The estate h ft by Mr. Hanscom consists
largely of most valuable real estate In the
heart of the business district of the city.
It .Includes ninety-nine feet on the .north
side of Farnam street between Fourteenth
and Fifteenth streets, three lots on Harney
Street between Thirteenth and Fourteenth
streets, the northeast corner of Eighteenth
and Douglas streets and the stores occupied
ty Lindsay, the Jeweler, and Dyball, the
lonfcctlonor, on Douglas stroet.

Oman has lukt In Andrew Hanscom
one of her oldest and most Important clll
snj champions." said Dr. Oeurge L
Minor. 'In force of charnrtr he was fsr
find away shore ordinary men.
"I first met him on my arrival In Council
riiiffs in 0 tobrr. 1S.U I hn,1 nr.t been In
that nnd village of mixed Mormon and
tJi-ntllu population many hours before I
henrd his name. He had lived there a few
years find occupied the best house In the
town. He hnd come out from Michigan
with his young wife, driving through the
country In a wagon supported by his sturdy
cournge and hope.
"That same fall he decided to locate in
Omaha and he fixed his possessions on an
acreago north of the present city. Ho Im
proved it and built, a house before finding
it was a school section. Later he moved
into the center of the city and built a
house on Douglas street. It was one of
the best dwellings In the city, as the other
homes he had erected had been the best In
their ses'irol neighborhoods. It was char
acteristic of him that he was determined
to have the best or none.
"Mr. Hanscom was by birth and by
nature a fighter, u combative man. I
remember an Incident when he was haul
ing lumber from Council Bluffs to build his
home north of Omaha. Some dispute arose
between him and the captain of the ferry
boat regarding the lowering of the planks
from tho boat to tho shore. The captain.
James C. Mitchell, was also known as a
fighting man and, as both men were armed,
bloodshed was expected by the spectators.
However, this dispute which was Indeed
only most trivial, was settled peacably.
"It was a fortunate thing for Omaha that
Mr. Hanscom wns a man not afraid to
fight. On two different occasions I know
that he alone wrested victory from certain
defeat In the fight for the location of the
capitol. He waa elected to tho legislature
where his principal support In the house
was A. J. Popploton. Hanscom was chosen
speaker on the Issue or removal of the
capitol, which had been located In Omaha
by Governor Cuming. It was then that
the battle for supremacy began between
Omaha Florence and Bellevue, which was
not decided for many years
"As a speaker Mr. Hanscom was a model
of force If not of parliamentary excellence.
Samuel E. Rogers and myself were mem
bers of the upper house of tho legislature
l at this time, and so I knew all about tho
Btrong fight ho made for Omaha In those
days. Once Mr. Decker of Otoe county
was on his feet clamoring for the floor.
Hanscom and Poppleton did not want hiin
to have It and exchanged certain winks
which they used as a sign langttore. But
Mr. Decker Insisted. Finally the speaker
glared at him and shouted, 'If you don't
sit down I'll come over there and knock
you down.' Mr. Decker Immediately wilted
Into his chair.
"On at least two occasions I saw Hans
com withstand mobs of his enemies In the
lobbies of tho capitol with the aid of two
big pistols. During his second term In tho
li-glslature ho kept the legislature from
tuklng action for a whole month by the
mere forco of his character and person
ality. There was a strong anti-Omaha ma
jority at that time and they were bent on
taking the capitol away from us.
"After the admlBslon of Nebraska as a
state and when Omaha's supremacy waa as
sured Mr. HatiBCom retired as much as
possible from public affairs. But he always
had a large Influence on account of hla
simple force of brain and his solid busi
ness Integrity. - He was -always influential
In Union Pacific affairs and In the affaire
of the railroads which came later,
' "Omaha owes Hanscom park to his gen
erostty and foresight, he with James Me
geath having presented that tract to the
city.
"Mr. Hanscom was a devoted husband
and father and no man was ever more free
with his sympathies and his money In de
votion to his home and his family. He was
a loyal friend, but I pitied tho man who
would'Tjetray" him." !" ' -V '". .. :i

CASE OF SWITCHING CHARGE
If Merrlom A Holiuqnlst Are Hit by
Une Iload Vpdlkes Are by
Another.
"If It is true, as the Merriam & Holm
quist company tells the Interstate Com
merco commission, that certain roads dis
criminated In favor of the Updike Grain
company In the matter of switching
charges, it Is also true that the Missouri
Pacific discriminated In favor of the Mor
rlum & Holmquist company," said a man
who attended the grain Investigation before
the Interstate Commerce commission a year
ago. "It la a case of whose dog Is bitten."
The remorlt was occasioned by reading
the report In The Bee that Merriam &
Holmquist have complained to the Inter
file Commerce commission that four roads
favored the Updike company.
The speaker referred to Mr. Merrlam's
own statement before the commission that
he went through the forms of paying tho
Missouri I'acitlc (1 a car In and $1 a car
out, but that the road refunded the whole
amount, thereby allowing him free switch
ing. The commission could not learn that any
other road got Its switching freo.
"There Is no truth In the allegation that
the railroads pay the Union Stock Tarda
company 15 a car for switching grain, $3
of which Is paid to the Upd:ke Grain com
pany," said an'onVial of the Updike com
pany. "That condition may have obtained
once, but it doesn't now. The switching
charge for eveiybody now Is $2 out and
nothing In."
"We do not say there Is discrimination
now, but there was once, and we do not
v.-ant It to happen again," said Nathan
Merriam.
I'sera of Hoick thln shoe Polish
say It Is the best and most lasting polish
they have ever used. It gives a polish to
the leather and it won't rub off on the
clothing. A well satisfied user Is the best
advertisement.
NOT A CONVICTION IN COURT
Xolhlng Doing; Before !4llce Bar
fine Altatadt ltelaned and'
Crawford Fished.
Wednesday wu a record day In police
court, as thee was not a single conviction,
foventeen rases were brought before Judge
Crawford, but In every one the defendant
was discharged or the case was dismissed
without a trial. Clerk Mahoney sat on hla
high stool and chewed a penholder, for he
collected no money in fines and was not
asked to make out a single mittimus, so
could not afford to chew anything elso.
The Judge's fishing trip seems to have put
him in a lenient mood, or perhaps the
three-day regimo of Shudge Altstadt has
so frightened the evil ones that they In
tend to be good for a day or two.

CATTLE Receipts of
liberal this morning for
,274
8.360
cattle were very
a ednesday, 384
cars being reported In the yards. A good
many or the trains were late In arriving,
so that the trade was very much delayed;
In fact. It was well along toward midday
before buyers and sellers tried to do any
business. With so many cuttle on sale
and so many to weigh It was very late In
tite afternoon before anything like a clear
ance was effected.
There was a very liberal supply of range
beef steers on sale, but not many corn
feds. The market was generally 10c lower
than yesterday, but the trade was slow,
partly due to the late arrival of trains and
to the disinclination of buyers to do much
business until the receipts were all In sight.
Cows und heifers were tn very liberal
supply and as buyers have been securing
i good many thin week they were In a
position to pound the market good and
hard, with the result that the cow market
was generally loiiloc lower than yesterday.
As was the cuss with beef steers, the trade
was slow in getting started on account of
late trains and slow alter It did get started.
It was very late before a clearance was
effected.
Some of the most desirable kinds of foed-
crs did not show very much change as
compared with yesterday, but the less de
sirable kinds were anywhere from slow to
10c lower. The offerings were large and It
umih ao uny iu cucui a clearance.

HOOB-There was no great change In the
hog market today, prices being very much
same as yesterday, still aiim 10,1.
change did take place was on the side of
stronger prices. Packers were only flgurlna
on paying steady Drlies and the market
wss slow In opening. The appearance of
a few shlplng order put a little life Into
the trade as well as strength so that the
market might possibly be called steady to
a Hue stropger In soot a. To t.oiw t 11,.
hogs sold the same as yesterday at $5 7,f

SHKKP When the market opened this
morning there were only shout forty cars
of sheep and lambs In sight with a total
for the day estimated at iio hnt in
spite of the large estimate, buyers were
iiui bi an weasenen out got down to busi
ness at once buying everything oftexti
about as fast as they cou'.d get to It. The
later receipts kept on changing hands as
fast as the trains arlved so that practtcallv
everythlng. large as the receipts were, sold
In very good season.
In other words the market tndsv was
active on all kinds, both feeders and killers,
sheep and lambs, and the prices paid were
steady and In spots strong. Good fat
lambs sold at $7.26, which is higher than
they have brought of late, four loads going
straight at that price.
Quotation on good to choice killers:
Lambs, $6.75ij7.40; yearling wethers. $.60'J
6.0ft; wethers, $5.anf(6.4; ewes, 4.7Vfl6.o.
No quotations are given on fair to good
killers, as feeder buyers arc taking prac
tically everything of that dem-r'rilon at
better prices than packers will pay.

Conflicting Influences Came Con$tan1
Fluctuation of Values.
FEW NET CHANGES AT CL0S1
Lower Prices for Metals Cause liana
vrard Tendency In Industrials
More t hee-rfnl Vlerr Taken
of Money Situation.
NEW YORK. Sept. 11. -The sentiment ol
speculators so far as It could be read In
Hie action of the stock market was tn a
state of Hux today, the tide of the pries
movement shifted constantly In response to
conflicting tntluottces, Inst on one side and
then on the other. The weakness of th
copper stocks made a distinct line of cleav.
i ""e through t he market as It did yesterday
but this weskness was later in asserting
Its sentimental effect on the general list
and that effect was not so marked as yes
terday. Prices on the Metal exchange wert
lower, and this was the dominant factoi
In the copper Industrials. The general mar
ket was Inclined to resist this Influenct
and at times did so successfully. Th
movement waa still largely professional and
shorts left uncovered after yesterday s de
cline were (ilven credit for much of thi
buying. The foreign markets were pat
terned rlosely after the New York market
sentiment showing some Improvement ovei
the general Investment situation, but per
plexed by the break In copter. The mar
ket so far as the slump In copper Is due t
conditions peculiar to thnt trade or to tht
speculative situation In the market for tht
metal and It is not subject of great tin
easiness to security holders at large. Th
New York City bond sale was of mort
cheering effect on opinion today than wa
the case with the imperfect knowledge of
the details of the transitions In posses
sion of the market yesterday. More weight
was given to the oversnlscrlptlon rive
times and to tbe large number of nearly
one thousand bidders anil less to the low
price, so considered, for the average. Price,
In fact, wns closely In line with expecta
tions of tho bond experts. It was feared
that the higher rnte of return on these
bonds compared with the older New York
City Issues and with the high-grade rall
rond bonds would prompt somo wide read
justments In prices of other bonds to con
form to the new investment returns. The
bond market today did not show such a
process at work in any drastic degree.
The cheerful tone expressed In public
Interviews by a number of capitalists newlj
returned from long summer trips had Iti
share In an Improved feeling which wai
discernible In the undercurrent of the day'i
events. Call money showed a relaxing
tendency after the strain of the preparation
for the bond sale and of the I'nlon raclfit
convertible subscriptions. As application!
for the New York bonds ran to a total
of over $2io.iVfl,0W there naturally are eomt
resources for which preparation wss found
unnecessary and which were thus released.
The proceeds of the Union Pacific sub
scriptions were, It was understood, turned
over Immediately to the Iennsylvnnla rail
rond for redemption of notes given for the
purchase of Baltimore A Ohio stock and
the money found Its way Into the time loan
market with relaxing effect there. Foreign
exchange continued to decline, marking tho
growth of the New York control In that
market with the rising tide of the com
modities experts. Redemptions In progress
of Japanese 6 per cent bonds, which are
held In this country to an estimated total
of $S.0ii0,flO(l, are helping the money market.
Bo are the deposits of government fundi
with the banks which are now being placed
more freely with the New York banks. The
many fluctuations during the day left In
consir.erable net changes after all, tht 1
closing being firm at a rally.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value, $!60,000. L'nlted States 2s, registered,
advanced i per cent on call.
