That is What the Traveling Congress- men Had in Omaha. ASD AFTER OMANA CAME COUNCIL BLUFFs— LIRUT. M'CREA, UNDER THE ESCORT OF TEE CHIEF OF POLICE—CAPT. BOURKE’S RECOLLEC- TION OF A CAMPAIGN AGAINST TRAMPS. Staff Correspondence of Tax EVENING Stan. St. Louis, Mo., October 28. The busy and ever-growing city of Omaha is now nothing but a memory; only s dream, as it were, but it makes every member of the ex- cursion party tired again just to think of it, In Omahs hospitality ran riot, and if it did not wear out the city’s guests it was because the city’s guests were, in a physical sense, s pretty tough crowd. Great things were ex- ee ea ot pected of Omaha, From the time the special train pulled out of the 6th street depot on the 3d instant right straight along up to Inst Set- urday Capt. Bourke talked of little else than the big Nebraska city. While we were inspect- ing the factories of New England, the captain was continually referring to the greater greatness of what he was plessed to term “my city.” In Chicago he was heard to insti- tute comparison between the Illinois mart and Mass. his adopted home. St. Paul and Minneapolis he declared to be simply nowhere in the race for commercial supremacy, and even at Niagara he was heard to remark, in response to some- thing complimentary about the cataract, that when the party got to Omaha he would show them sights really worth looking at. Well. we got to Omaha and now, trying to rest in the queen city of the southwest, I want to put my- self on record as saying that if the party ever had too much of a good thing anywhere they gotit in Omaha. The delegates have never been so rushed about since the start and if they strike another such town they will have to suc- cumb. The members of the local committees worked like beave: but they had no mercy result was a very tired smelting works, the dress parade at Fort Omaha, the tortuously-long drive back to the city and the late dinner yesterday could have been put up with, because there was an object apparent i of those numbers of the program, but ‘no one will ever beable to satisfactorily ex- lain why half a hundred worn-out men should ve been bundled into three trains of electric cars, in company with twice as many natives who didn’t care whether they were tired or not, and taken over TO COUNCIL BLUFFS. If there is anything attractive in that long straggling Iowa village I failed to discover it— either on Sunday or on any one of several pre- vious days which have been spent in exploring that region. For two long ary hours the chilly ‘fitesouri river breezes toyed with the whiskers of the delegates and penetrated to their ctive marrows, but they stood it nobly. They repressed hundreds of yawns, ob- stinately refused to go to sleep, and amiled pleasantly st every remark—inane or other- wise—which was addressed to them. Only one incident served to brighten a fragment of that Ped sola and, as usual, Lieut. McCrea was the sufferer. The lieutenant was under the wing, so to speak, of the mayor of Council Bluffs, and when the former agence that he would like to make a brief cail upon an old friend iv the village “hizzonner” insisted upon the gallant officer's taking his private vehicle, which was near the place where the cars then happened to . The proffered conveyance was accepted and then the mayor, imagining that the old “salt” might fail to steer himself properly through the labyrinth of shanties and railroad tracks, which vex the face of nature thereabouts, ordered the chief of police to accompany Mr. McCrea to the desired jocality. In vain did “‘Mac” insist that there was not the slighest necessity for a guide, in vain did he implore the g usly-uniform guardian of the peace to leave him alone. ‘o- gether they lett the cars, together did they walk across the street to the waiting carriage, and, with “Mac” slightly in the lead, together they seated themselves therein. A mischievous attache intimated to the natives that the gentleman had been arrested and a rush was at once made in the direction of the carriage in which the lieuten- ant, under police escort, was being driven rapidly away. Never iv his life did the lieu- tenant blush more deeply or continuously than he did as he was driven past the half dozen cars in which his friends and companions were seated. He looked as though he was guilty and the boys gave him the grand laugh as he went by. Everybody in the party thinks the world of McCrea, but the temptation to “pile ou the agony” was in this instance too, strong to be effectually resisted. ‘The pray on representatives who accom- panied the delegates to Omaha were the re- cipients of many kind attentions, especially from Senator Paddock, Kepresentative Con- nell, ex-Representative John A. McShane and Mr. Annin of the Omaha Bee. CAPT. BOUREE'S TRAMP STORY. “Yes,” sighed Capt. Bourke, as the train pulled ont of the Union Pacific depot in Omaha at 1 o'clock this morning, “I've bad a good deal of fun in this town. Away off in that neighbor- hood,” be went on, indicating in the direction of the Union Pacific freight yards, “we hada pitched battle in 1878. Want me to tell you about itl scppeee, instead of allowing me to retire in search of a much needed rest. Well, I had just come back from participating in a number of interesting little social events with my copper-tinted brethren in the northwes and I was feeling pretty good because they ha: not required of me even a single lock of my once beautiful har, which, by the way, is lees numerous and less luxuriant it once was. When [reached Omaha I found the place was infested with tramps—not the harmless casi! sal vag,’ who asks your wife for a sand- wich and who finally compromises on a five- course dinner, ending with cigars and coffee, but the really vicious cusses who went armed and who had the town considerably terrorized, ‘The people stood it as long as their spirit of Christian charity held out and when that was exbausted they organized a number of volun- teer companies whose avowed ooject was the destruction of the genus tramp within the cor- te limits of the city. The outlaws num- [orea about 700 and they were intrenched ina large number of Union Pacific and Burlington and Missouri freight cars, which they had some time before taken possession of. here were probably about 1,500 in our little army and at the request of a few citizens I took command of one of the cere and we sailed in. My little crowd numbered forty andI think we captured thirty-seven prisoners on that mem- orable day. One of the first men to surrender was 8 heavy-set fellow whose left-arm coat sleeve was empty, and as he dropped out of the freight car to the ground I restrained the bloodthirsty impetuosity of my command and commenced to investigate the case before me. The prisoner spoke with a decided German accent, so I sized him up at once as a poor unfortunate veteran who had lost his kage lg haa a of Ree Sao Act- ing upon this eses I procee: to ques- tien him, and Bostny was just what I expected itto be. It was a very straight narrative, and Isaid to my fellow-seekers after gore: ‘We will let this devil go; he has been a brave man and suffered much mutilation in order that onr glorious Union might be preserved one and indivisible. He is not only maimed— crippled for life—but he is a foreigner and far away from home.’ Some of the boys were of the opinion that the man was a fraud, so to satisfy them and myself of the man’s veracity I felt the stump of the vanished arm, 1 was con- vinced, and was about to dip into my pocket in search of a dollar to give the war-chewed Teuton when an Irishman in my command stepped forward with the remark: ‘Oi beelave th’ ould haythen has more arrams and ligs nor wan av thim cintipades.’ “Very vigorously did he shake him, before I could interfere, and as a result of the stirrin; up we discovered that the arm which I failed to find was tied up inasling behind the old fraud’s back, while the stump which I had felt was nothing buts round stone tied up in a f. What did we dotohim? Well, couldn't say, but I wouldn't be at surpi if somebody kicked him at least once and with considerable force. He was sim- ply an incident, however, in the struggle. We wiped the whole brood out by threats and im- ‘nt, and the wanderers gave Omaha es wide berth for « long time thereafter.” THE RIDE TO ST. Loum. ‘We had e long ride today. The distance from Omaba to St. Louis is 476 miles and the now, I re all “special” ran, up engines in maki the run.

In the Cronin trial yesterday the trank in which Dr. Cronin’s body was carried away was brought into court, Hatfield, the dealer, after examining it, testified that it was identical with the one sold to Simonds. On cross-exam- ination he said that he could not swear that it was the identical trunk, because the firm kept such on hand always, and perhaps other dealers did also. It came out that Mr. Forrest of counsel for the defense had bought just such » trunk from the witness, It could not be sworn to positively that the furniture in the Carlson cottage was the same furniture sold to Simonds; it was precisely like it, however. When the court resumed its session the jury was excluded and the matter of striking out Witness Mi "s evidence as to what was said during his visit to O'Sullivan’s house on the Sunday following the murder, was taken up. The court finally decided to exclude all of the talk in regard toa former attack on Dr. Cronin, This was not satisfactory to the de- fense, and another flow of eloquence was the result. Finally the cross-examination of Mc- G was resumed. John W. Sampson, generally known as “Maj.” Sam , Was next called, and denied that Coughlin tried to hire him to “slug” Dr. Cronin. The witness, on cross-examination, admitted that Coughlin had arrested him three or four times; once for robbery; that he had been convicted for passing counterfeit money; that he was a gambler by profession, but denied that he followed Mr. Blaine through Michigan when he was making speeches there Inst fall, or Gov. Hill or Senator Thurman for the purpose of picking pockets. He said he went to some of these places for the purpose of securing reporting privileges. He naively ex- plained that he was “playing De Shells,” which is a variation of what is known as three card monte. William Lynn, who was with Sampson when he met Coughlin, and was asked to “slug” Cronin, testified to the fact that the two men had a conversation, the purport of which he did not hear, Joseph O'Keefe, Dr. Cronin’s tailor, said that he attended a meeting of camp 20 in Septem- ber, 1888. After the meeting he had a conver- sation with defendant Beggs about Dr. Cronin and Alexander Sullivan, Said the witness: ‘We were speaking first in reference to the union of the two rival factions of the order, and John F. Beggs said he did not have much confidence in the new executive that was elected. Then the trial committee came under discussion, and he said that Dr. Cronin was not the proper man to put on the committee to try Alexander Sullivan, I said Dr. Cronin did not have as unsavory record as James Rogers of Brooklyn, another one of the trial committee. John F, Beggs then told me that Cronin had admitted Coughlin as a member of camp 9%, without a formal initiation, and had furnished him with passwords. 1 toldhim I did not believe it. I told him that Cronin was too sincere a patriot to do anything of that kind. I told him fur- thermore that I would ask Cronin in reference to it and give the authority, and then he said Cronin was not s fit man to belong to Irish so- cieties.” On cross-examination it was brought out that Boggs objected to Cronin being in the committee to try the triangle because he was an enemy to Alexander Sullivan. A number of other witnesses were examined on minor points. An afternoon paper says that soon after the disappearance of Dr. Cronin the state put spies upon canny 20, and thata man was con- cealed in the hall during some of its meetings and took notes of ite proceedings, CREMATION IN BALTIMORE. The New Furnace There Tricd for the First Time. The London park crematory at Baltimore had its first incineration yesterday, Prepara- tions begun early in the morning, and by 10 o'clock the hea inthe furnace had reached 2,000 degrees, At noon the doors of the mauso- leum were opened and the casket containing the remains of Mrs. Gertrude E. Hartmann and her child, Gertrude, wno died three weeks after birth, was lifted out, placed on the shoulders of two stalwart workingmen and carried to the re- tort room of the crematorium, ‘The casket was made of highly-polished wood. A cradle of chilled steel, 7 feet in length, 3 feet wide and semi-circular in form, was the receptacle in which the bodies were placed. A long piece of muslin was spread over the bottom of the cradle and then saturated with alum water. The remains were placed on this and cov- ered from view with another piece of muslin. By this time the heat was at 2,500 degrees, ‘The cradle was placed within two feet of the doors, when the bolts were loosened and the great doors swang open. A blast of bot air shot out that would have been death to the person who came in close contact with it. The cradle was hurriedly pushed in, the doors quickly bolted and the work of cremation had begun. A slight odor of alum was perceptible; but this was soon obliterated by the strong draft from the ventilators. A sound every now and then, like the cracking of wood, could be heard from the oven, As soon as the oven doors had been closed the visitors came into the retort room. Each took a look at the inside of the furnace through a glass bull's eye made for the purpose, and after every one’s curiosity had been satisfied the little crowd filed out of the crematorium and were soon out of the cemetery. Ten minutes after the body had becn in the oven the thermometer marked 3,000 degrees, and in exactly thirty minutes all that remained of the mother and child was a small quantity of pearly ashes, weighing something over two pounds. The cradle containing the ashes was left in the oven over night. Mr. C, 8, Baldwin, who superintended the in- cineration, cremated over 500 bodies during the pust four years, He said: “The largest crema- torium is at Lancaster, Pa., where 208 bodies have been incinerated since its construction. Most of these people lived in the vicinity of Lan- caster, but number of bodies have been brought there from Pittsburg and several from Baltimore. The last body brought there was from Baltimore, Crematories are being con- structed throughout the country. and my be- lief is that the custom will become general during the next ten years.” Rextten years” TROOPS FOR THE POLLS. Rumor that Virginia Militia Are to be Under Arms Election Day. Under the heading “Open Fraud in Virginia” the Philadelphia Press today publishes the fol- lowing dispatch from Petersburg, Va.: A letter received from Hillsboro’, N.C., at re- publican headquarters details an interview had with a merchant in that town by a Richmond drummer, who thought the merchant was adem- ocrat, The drummer stated that the democratic clubs of Richmond had made details of fifty armed men for each of the colored precincts for election day and that in one ward 800 qualitied voters had been marked for challenge with the view to hindering and retarding the election and that there would be bloodshed, The committee also received letters from Norfolk and Staunton verifying the statement. At Staunton the drummer offered to bet that eee would be a row in Jackson ward, Rich- mon These statements, taken in connection with the visit of Mr. Barbour and Gov. Lee’s order for two military companies to be under arms in Richmond on election day, indicate a determi- nation to intimidate the colored voters. The republicans are, however, equally determined, though no fears need be entertained of any violation of law on their part, ‘The whole scheme is for the of in- timidating the colored voter and keeping him from the polls. ‘Asa Roorns, Secretary Republican State Committee, THE CENTURY FOR NOVEMBER * Begins a new volume (the twentieth year), and presents a table of contents of remarkable interest and variety.

It prints ALL THE NEWS, Local, Domestic and Foreign, LONG IN ADVANCE OF THE MORN- ING PAPERS. This is conspicuously true of all classes of news, but especially so in regard to Local News and District Affairs. THE STAR has a very much LARGER and BETTER force of LOCAL RE- PORTERS and SPECIAL WRITERS than y other paper in Washington ever thought of employing, and ITS MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT AND PRINTING FACILITIES ARE MORB THAN THREE TIMES AS POWER- FUL AND RAPID AS THOSE OF ANY For Pope's Cree! except Sun For Annapolis, (20 and 9:00 am., 6.00 pm. daily,except Sunday, au., 4:10 p.m ALEXANDRIA AND FREDERICKSBURG RAIL- pax axe ANDKIA AND WASHINGTON IN EFFECT MAY 12, 1889.

It is de« livered regularly by careful carriers at the HOMES OF THE PEOPLE, AFTER THE BUSTLE AND WORRY OF THR | SAY ARE OVER, and it is thus read leisurely and thoroughly by EVERY MEMBER OF THE FAMILY. They know that it prints all the news, and has only the interests of the people of the District in view, with no partisag measures to advocate, and no private s nm schemes to forward. They know it, in short, tobe THE PEOPLE’S PAPER, end nothing else. Asan ADVERTISING MEDIUM it is, therefore, ABSU- LUTELY WITHOUT A RIVAL. It ts in fact worth more as a means of reach- | ing the public THAN ALL THE ‘| OTHER DAILY PAPERS IN THE CITY TOGETHER. Furthermore, in proportion to the re- turns it gives its patrons, ITS ADVER- TISING RATES ARE THE CHEAPEST IN THE CITY. f se # dork for #3750 o's. jor W *3:16, *6:00 p.m. OTM ie re wat IEDMONT AIR LINE, Schedule in effect #PTEMBER 29, 1889, nnessee ‘baat 1 2 Anon) 6, Chat tas aud Memphia | ian Sleeper Wealtinyton to Mee | mail | Moi to eS ington 9:00 am. —0: — esos In conclusion, the public should bear in mind this one significant fact: THE STAK does not rely upon empty boasts to impress the public. ITS CIRCULA- TION IS SWORN TO; its PRESS- ROOM IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; and its BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED by any one having an interest in their examination. These are CRUCIAL TESTS, which few papers invite, and which those that boast most are least able to stand. —o-— te. 448. L. TAYLOR, Gen. Pasa. Agent.
