Lively Demand for Sites In Redblll,
Tripp Coanly, Sooth Dakota.
GREGORY, 8. D.. March 26. (Special.)
The auction sale of lots In the townsite of
Redliill, Tripp county, which took place
yesterday, was a remarkably successful
one. Thirty-six lots were sold for the gross
sum of 16.400. There were 125 people at the
sale, which will be understood to be a
large number of enthusiastic buyers when It
Is known that they had to drive over fifty
miles to' reach the townsite from this point.
8lx buildings are already up and many
more on the way, but are delayed on ac
count of the lack of freighters.
The Interest In the sale of land, which
begins here tomorrow. Is Intense, and the
city is full of men tonight, who are here
to buy It, some for speculation and aome
because it Joins what they already have.
It is presumed that the sale will be most
interesting and In some eases hotly con
tested. Gregory was hardly prepared for the
great Influx at this time, but as the prep
arations to care for the new settlers of
Tripp county were well under way and
with Its usual adaptability everything was
put In order t.oduy and . the crowds are
bring cared for In good shape. Everything
Is orderly and no reports of losses have
been heard, though every Incomer carries

Has Fight with
Hundred Negroes
Three Men Killed and Fire Wounded
in All-Night Battle Near
Henryetta.
OL'THRIE. Okl.. March 2ft. On the scene
of the famous Creek Indian uprising of lsst
year at Henryetta settlement, three negroes
were killed, five wounded and forty-one
captured In a battle between twenty deputy
sheriffs and 100 negroes. The fighting be
gan late Wednesday afternoon and con
tinued with Interruptions until 10 o'clock
today.
Five deputies went from Henryetta,
eighteen miles north, to the negro settle
ment to arrest cattle thieves thought to be
concealed In the house of one of the
negroes, who fefused to allow them to
enter. The deputies persisted snd were
fired upon. Outnumbered, the five fled.
A few hours sfter the first elssh, a larger
poege, heavily armed, renched the settle
ment. Some one fired a shot and the
fighting was on. When night fell the ex
citement increased and negroes roamed
through the woods firing and yelling. The
fight continued as a series of duels,
throughout the night, the negroes retreat
ing gradually from tree to tree as the
deputies advanced, firing steadily. Reach
ing the settlement, the negroes barricaded
themselves in their huts and could not be
dislodged.
At daybreak the firing ceased and neither
psrty made another move until 10 o'clock,
when the deputies renewed the attack on
the negroes, who now numbered 100, against
twenty deputies.
About 300 .hots were fired In the last
encounter, when the two negroes were
killed and Deputy Sheriff Fowler Injured.
At the first onslaught the negroes were
dislodged and fled. The deputlee pursued
and captured forty-or.s.
All Is quiet tonight and no further rioting
Is anticipated.
Snake Indians aided the negroes In their
fight, and several Indians are among those
arrested. 1
Rev. Timothy Fowler, an aged white
minister, who accompanied the officers,
was perhaps fatally wounded.
TURN IN BALKAN AFFAIRS
Abdication of Servian Crows Prlace
Pats Neve A avert oat Some
Problems.
LONDON. March 26. The Balkan diffi
culty has assumed a somewhat new aspect,
owing to the sensational news of the
abdication of the Servian crown prince.
The prince hitherto has been considered
the leader of the war party at Belgrade
and his firebrand speeches have done much
to Inflame the feelings of the Servian
people. There are not wanting those both
here and at Vienna who believe that a
political move underlies his renunciation.
Whether or not thle Is the case. It Is
certain that the removal of the crown
prince from the scene la a step making
fcr peace. It will be easier under present
conditions for " Servla to retreat from a
difficult situation. Advices received here
tonight are of a more hopeful character.
Distinct rumors that Austro-Hungary la
sending an ultimatum to Servla may be
dismissed as unfounded. Great Britain and
the other powers are still actively seeking
a peaceful Issue.
BELGRADE, March" 25. A cabinet council
tonight decided that the premier is In
competent to receive a direct communica
tion from Crown Prince George, who la
subject only to his father's authority. The
premier will therefore roturn the letter
wrlch the crown prlnoe sent to him re
nouncing his right of succession to the
Servian throne and will advise the prince
to address himself to the king.
Recently a bitter press campaign hss
been waged against the crown prince. He
had been accused of being Implicated fh
the death of one of his servants, a man
named Kolakovtts, snd it Is now learned
that the prince took this action because
of a threatened interpellation In the na
tional assembly on this subject. The prince
now declares that before leaving the coun
try he will await the final result of the
pending: political situation and will join
the volunteer, a a private in the event
of war.
VIENNA, March 26.-The joint council of
the Hungarian minister, presided over by
Archduke Francis decided this evening to
postpone for the present the del I very of
the next note to Servla, and It Is reported
that an Inclination was shown to accept
the Jast Anglo-Russian proposal on behalf
of Servla.
Baron von Aehrenthal. the Austrian for
eign minister, had an interview with Em
peror Francis Joseph prior to the meeting
of the council and it Is said that his
majesty again Insisted that peace must be
preserved, even going so far as to declare:
"We do not want war, even If giving way
mean. a blow to Austro-Hungarlan
prestige."
Resaor of I'ltlmatasa.
PARIS, March 2. It Is held In official
circle, that the Balkan situation, on ac
count of the unreconclllable attitude of
Austria-Hungary, has now reached Its most
acute stage and that a few days will de
cide between peace and war. The efforts
of Great Britain, France and Russia to
present a formal settlement of the diffi
cultyacceptable to Baron von Aehrenthal,
the Austro-Hungarlan minister of foreign
affairs having failed, Austria-Hungary is
expected forthwith to deliver an ultimatum
at Belgrade. After this. If Servla refuses
to make complete surrender, no doubt ex
ists in Parts that Austria-Hungary will
dispatch an army across the frontier.

f'oaarllmaa Zimman Explains Way
the Street Roll-war Com pa ay
Can Well Afford in Pay
.Occupation Tax.
"Icnver rceives im.OOO yearly In rovaltr.
Kansas City IJtt.flOO yearly In royalty,
Baltimore HOO.OOO yearly In royalty and other
cities greater or Wnm amounts In royalties
from Its street railway companies. Omaha
receives no royalty from Its street railway
company tr other concessions In the way
of street cleaning or paving repairing. Is
It not a reasonable demand that we malts
of our street railway company In the way
of cheap fares, royalty, clean streets and
repslred pavements?"
This was one of the declarations mads
by Harry B. Zimman, republican candidate
for mayor, In a speech before a crowdsd
house- at Twenty-fourth ar.d Burdette
stn-ets lsst night, which met with resound
ing cheers from his auditors. Though It 1s
said that "comparisons are odious," Mr.
Zimman did not hesitate to make compari
sons with some fifty cities, and In doing
so convinced his hearer, that Omaha should
be receiving something from its publU
service corporsttons as welt as other cities.
One of the cities cited was Detroit, where
a franchise to run fifteen yeats was re
fused a company which offered to pay a
10 per cent royalty and to sell ten tickets
for 26 cents. In Omaha no royalty Is paid
and but five tickets are sold for 26 cent
Vader the Pass System.
"Before the anti-pass law went into ef
feot and during a period of fourteen
months, the Omaha & Council Bluffs Street
Railway company carried 1,600,000 passen
gers free," said Mr. Zimman. "If It could
do this, how can It say now that It can
not afford to sell six tickets for a quarter.
But It said it could not afford it, and the
present democratic council refused to pass
my ordinance requiring such a concession.
Have you stopped to think of the young
man or young woman working for say J6
or JS a week and the 60 cents paid weekly
to the street railway company? I main
tain that we ought to do something for
these people and demand that twenty-five
tickets be sold for tl during all hours, and
eight for a quarter during the working
hours.
"The street railway company claims a
perpetual franchise, but under the existing
law one franchise expires In 1914 and the
other In 1917. It values Its franchisee at
not less than $6,000,000. If it Is worth that
much to the company how much Is It worth
to the city? The present democratic coun
cil refused to pass ordinances requiring a
tax of S per cent from this and other pub
lic service corporations. Introduced by
Councilman Bridges and myself, but If I
am elected mayor I will continue to fight,
and know I will succeed. I know this be
cause some of the companies have offered
to compromise on 2ft per cent. They will
pay 6 per cent as soon aa seven members
of the council say they must.
Why the Tax Is Asked.
"Taxpayers of Omaha now pay $1,000,000
In taxes annually, but more must be raised.
I believe that they are paying enough for
the privilege of living In this city. To raise
the needed money (and the legislature has
authorized the city to levy $100,000 more In
taxes) we propose to compel the public
service corporations, which have done lit
tle to build up the city, to pay this S per
cent of their gross earnings. This will
bring In $250,000 the first year.
"Should It be deemed advisable, this
could be set aulde in a redemption fund
to take up the city', outstanding debt.
Under this plan we could wipe out our
debt in eighteen years and save the an
nual payment of $250,000 interest on it."
Mr. Zimman then went on to show that
If the money received from the proposed
occupation tax was placed In the gen
eral expense fund of the city that two
third, of the current expenses would be
paid by It From 250 to 400 more gas
lamp, could be installed, more paving
Could be done and many other improve
ments could be made. He also showed
that many more gas and electric arc
lamp, could be put In If the mayor and
city council would stand firm and refuse
new contracts to the. lighting companies
on the present terms, for they would be
glad to make a lower price rather than
to lose the contracts.
Matter of Garbage.
The fifteen-year garbage contract, made
by the present democratic council, also
came In for a scoring at the hands of the
speaker. This contract compels every
home owner to provide a tin receptacle
for garbage and further specifies that all
garbage must be separated, else the con
tractor will not remove It.
"I do not believe In enforcing a
stringent order on our mothers, sisters,
wives and sweethearts compelling them
to separate garbage for the contractor's
hogs," said Mr. Zimman, gamid tumultuous
applause, "for the hogs are well enough
able to separate the garbage themselves."
JIMS CtPTl'RB JACKS' MEETING
Mac la Oratory oa Tap la the Fifth
Ward.
"There was a sound of revelry by night,"
for at McKenna's hall, Sixteenth and Lo
cust streets, had gathered the manly beauty
and chivalry of the Fifth ward in an ef
fort by the Jims to show the Jacks where
to head-in.
The Jacks had announced at much ex
penditure of black ink that they would
have a meeting there Thursday night, but
when the time came the hall was in posses
sion of the Jims, and they held the fort
throughout the evening with none to molest
or make them afraid.
Oratory was the order of the evening.
Impassioned eloquence was in the air, the
hall fairly reeked with it. It filled the
room, seeped out the windows and floated

down the Iocust street hill and' hung over
the railroad ysrds like a heavy fog. All
kinds of eloquence was there, from the
timid, qusverlng voice of the counrllmanle
aspirant, making his first speech, to the
glowing, sclntltating, rorruscatlng pyro
technic display, of verbal skyrocket, fired
from the perfervld musslcs of such 13-Inch
guns s. Dahlman, Plattl, Regan and other,
of the deep-sea-going battleship type.
One of the speaker, 'whose remarks
brought forth applause like unto the sound
of the storm-lashed billows bresking on a
rock-bound coast, was Michael Hogan, who
has laid himself on the altar of public
duly and Is ready and willing to undergo
the martyrdom of representing the Seventh
ward In the council chamber. He said In
part: "Mr. Chair-man. voters and others:
I stand for personal liberty. I believe that
after the boys have gone to church Sun
day morning, they should be allowed to
gather on the vacant lots, In the base ball
parks or elsewhere and twirl the ball and
throw the bat as much a. they want. I
believe In Sunday theaters, I believe," and
here Is where he became so In earnest that
his voice shook with emotion and his hear
ers literally hung upon his lips, "I believe
that the golfer and the woman golfer should
be allowed to go out Sunday and throw the
golf If they want to. I believe" but here
his remarks were interrupted by the ap
plause aforesaid and under cover of it he
gracefully withdrew.
Mayor Jim paid his retrpects to Colonel
Berryman In no uncertain style. He took
for his text the word "Ingratitude," and
his experience at the religious meeting
Tuesday night where he addressed the
brethren stood htm In good stead, as he
preached beautifully and pathetically for
about half an hour on the crime, the deep
dyed guilt of the man who bit the hand
thst fed him. He gave It ashl. opinion
that the Berryman candidacy 1. not being
made In good faith, and said he believed
that the money to finance It came from
republican sources, all of which Is Instruc
tive as showing the beautiful harmony
and concord there Is within the democratic
ranks.
Nothing was said about the republicans;
all the ammunition was expended In the
terrible bombardment against the Jacks
and It lasted for three hours, although the
reverberations are still rolling back from
the Council Bluffs hills and were plainly
audible over the eastern portion pf Iowa.

Mayor Dahlman was endorsed In hi.

Colonel Ed P. Berryman was heartily and
vigorously denounced as an ungrateful and
offending offlceseeker to even dare to ask
or a lookln on the mayor's chair at a
meeting of the South Side Non-Partisan
Improvement club at Seventeenth and Vin
ton streets Thursday night.
While the mayor wa making a strong
plea for the votes of the thirty or so club
members who were present and was citing
his liberal views on tho subjects of Sunday
beer and base ball the little assembly room
was the center of attraction, but when he
and a few other candidates adjourned to
other points of Interest In the neighborhood
or elsewhere a pool hall In front of the
meeting place attracted the crowd and
when his honor's name was put dawn In
the secretary's book as the democratic
choice for municipal executive only eight
members were present to vote on the ques
tion. "If Berryman had waited until after
Dahlman had run for his second term
we might have been willing; to nominate
him, but as it stands now we don't want
him at all," declared Patrick J. Doran,
president of the organisation.
"Liberal law enforcement, equal rights
end Improvements. for the south part of
the city," is the motto of the club, which
has been organised only recently with a
membership of about fifty young voters.
They meet every Thursdsy evening.
Besides Dahlman the following candi

meeting: B. H. Davie, A. C. Kugel, M.

Lieutenant Sharkelton's ship Nimrod has
returned here with the exploring parly
aboard, all of whom are well. The mem

Prof David and his companions recount
that when they stased on the Journey
to the magnetic pole the weather waa so
hot that they had to pull their two
sledges In singlets.
There wss half a ton of provisions on
each sledge. After a comparatively easy
;50-mll Journey along the sea ice they
had a hard and almost hopeless climb to
the inland plateau. They carried thair

by a Jury which debated five hours over
Its verdict. "And recommend him to the

Judge Sears told the jury that he would

to sentencing Bogdanovlc, but added that
loo many men were carrying loaded re
