Fouk young men were arrested in Chi- cago the other day, ‘‘while taking great liberties with certain books belonging to Mr. E. P. Vining,"” but they were soon afterwards discharged for want of prose- outivn. Mr. Vining thinks that they wanted to get some inside pointers on the workings of the pool for purposes of speculation, but his Omaha friends are of the opinion that the young men were after Mr, Vining's great work on philolo- gy, upon which he has spent many years of his valuable time, Had they secured the manuscript of this work, they no doubt would have obtained a big reward for its return, and *‘no questions asked.” Rev. DEWrrr Taumaaor, of New York, has returned home after an extended ‘western tour, and upon being interviewed on the presidential outlook, said: “T gathered that there is much confi- [— PETROLEUM AS A FUEL. One of the greatest obstacles in the way of Omaha becoming a manufacturing city is the high price of fuel. A coal mine within a reasonable distance of Omaha would prove an immense fortune to the owners and of incalculable benefit to this city. However, it sepms that the fuel problem is likely to be solved with- out the discovery of a coal mine, Recent experiments have shown that crude petroleum can be safely utilized as fuel ata much less cost than coal. Dur. ing the last four months experiments have been in progress at the Chicago Weat.side water-works, and they have resulted in the perfection of a method by which one-half of the boilers in those works are heated with crude petroloum. The oil is fed and forced into the furnace by a jot of superheated steam, and the result is a strcng ateady flame, which is entirely under control. The following is a comparative statement of the use of coal and oil at the works- Pounds of coal to pump 1,000,000 gallons of water. . sEve 1,300 Pounds of ofl to pump 1, of water . 680 Tho cost of the coal .. 3,43 The cost of the oil $2.20 The oil is*figured at its present cost of $1 per barrel, and the coal at §3.75 per tov, the lowest price ever paid. The evaporation test shows nine pounds of water ovaporated by one pound of coal, and seventeen to eighteen pounds of water by one pound of oil. Bosides the low cost there are other advantages in favor of oil. It keeps a steady fire. There is no handling of coal. The fur- nace doors are never opencd nor the fire checked by the rush of coal air upon the coals. The oil is much better for the boulor than coal, as the steady fire of the oil keeps the plates of an even tempera- ture, and contraction and expansion are thus avoided. This system possesses an- other advantage. The residuum left after refining crude oil, which is now almost a waste product at the refineries, produces even better offects than the crude oil. This tar can be obtained at the refiners’ for the mere cost of handling, which will not be above 40 cents a barrel. Further, the immense development of petroleum fields abroad is stopping its exportation from this country, and will make this kind of fuel abundant and cheap. In large establishments where there are many boilers in use there will be a great saving in labor. Under such conditions one man will do the work of ten firing with coal. 1If petroleum is all that is claimed for it aa a fuel, it certainly will come into universal useinthe heating of boilers. Ifit is » success in Chicago and other eastern cities, where coal is very cheap, it will certainly be of much greater benefit to Omaha factories and other establishments, as coal in Omaha is a very expensive arti- cle. We understand that two of our large manufrcturing institutions are al- ready making arrangements to substitute petroleum for coal, and that others are preparing to do the same thing. With cheaper fuel Omaha we believe will soon become a great manufacturing city. In Wyoming there are great oil lakes which are owned principally by Omaha parties, who are endeavoring to put this oil upon the market. The high rate of transpor- tation, however, will probably prevent them from conveying it to market by cars, but if they would build a pipe-line to Omaha, and here establish their refineries and distributing depot, they would realize a vast fortune. A pipe line can easily be laid from Wyoming down the Platte val- ley to Omaha, all that is necessary being the capital. The new use to which oil is now to be put will make an additional demand and will probably encourage the owners of the Wyoming oil lakes to rail out the plan we have suggested. If Omaha can become the center of western THE DAILY BF Western cattle men are nearly all in favor of the new method of shipment. The dressed-beef business has been dem- onstrated to be a success in every re- spect. Ttsaves to the owners of cattle an immenss sum in railroad freight. It relioves them of extortionate stock-yard tolls. It dispenses with the service of quite a number of men, and in several other ways saves to them a great deal of money. What is thus saved is taken out of the pockets of the railronds and the stock- yards, and hence the determined fight of those monopolies againat dressed beef. And now come the eastern middlemen and wholesale butchers to reinforce the railroads and the stook-yards in their fight. They, too, see that their business will be seriously affected by the new en- torprise, and they have raised the cry that chemicals are used in preparing western dressed beef, but this story ha been shown to be without foundation. The New York Herald says: *‘The new industry to which we owe this food pro- duct is a dangerous competitor of eastern stock yards and abattoirs, so it must be abused. The situation rescmbles that of the English meat market, where dressed beef and mutton from America and Aus- tralia can be sold cheaper than the home- LA Iatec Shas s 1A muol oil distribution and through choap fuel Jamos G.

While purchasers in New York cannot distin- guished between tho tasto of Chicago dressed beef and the meat that comes from local slaughter houses, the refrier- ator cars will be kept busy. As for the story that chemicals are used in the western process, those who tell it know that these materials are used only to lower the temperature of the cars, and do not in any way come in contact with the meat. Special local interests should not be allowed to deprive the generals dinner table of whatever it can gain in the direction of economy. The entire community is opposed to such ‘protec- tion.’ The new industry, however, witl over- come all opposition. It is proving sue- cessful wherever established, and so it will be in Omaha, where a slaughtering house, of a capacity of 1,000 head por day, will be in operation early this sum- mer, in time to handle the season’s cattle shipments from the west. The' dressed beef enterprise in Omaha is backed by many millions of dollars, and controls to- day the larger part of the cattle interests of Nebraska and Wyoming. The syndi- cate will be enabled, owing to its im- mense capital and the large number of cattle under its control, to obtain decent treatment at the hands of the railroad companies, who will soon be convinced that the cattle owners of the west are too powerful and deter- mined a class of men to be trifled with, and that they will ship their cattle in any shape they see fit. It is onlya question of a very short time when nine- tenths of tha wentern cattle will be slaughtered and dressed near their graz- ing grounds, and shipped in refrigerator cars, The railroad companies and the stockyards ring will never be able to stop the development of this industry, and they might as well accept the inevi- table. WouLp-ne: candidates for congress from this district are requested to paste the following—from the Nebraska COity Press—in their hat or hats: ““The Ne- braska Staats Zeitung comes out in ita last issue in favor of Frank Ransom for congress. The paper is owned and con- trolled by Senator C. H. Van Wyck and Paul Schminke. This announcement may be the result of Mr. Ransom'’s _ late visit to Washington, where he was the guest of Senator Van Wyck.” Query: Is the oftice to be held for Ransom!— Beatrice Eapress, We have tho beat authority for saying that there is not a word of truth in the above, Senator Van Wyck does not owna dollar's worth of stock in any paper—either German or English—nor does he control the ttterances of the Nebraska Staats Zeitung. Mr. Ransom is not a candidate for congress, and if he was we are protty certain we should have heard of it from himself. It looks very much as if this were an effort on the part of a political clique that bears no good will towards Senator Van Wyck to em- broil him in a needless controversy with Congressman Weaver, It is hardly necessary to say that they will not suc- coed. HuxNTiNaTON must be up to some more crooked work, He certainly has taken a roundabout way, in going clear to the Connecticut legislature, to secure a charter for the Southern Pacific railway. The legislators of the Nutmeg state, however, are rather suspicious and will probably refuse Mr. Huntington's re- quest. They can’t see how the Southern Pacific is of any benefit to Connecticut, and they don't understand why Mr, Huntington should go so far away from home to get a charter. Ir the governor of Nebraska should suddenly convene the legislature he would find it difficult to get a quorum, Many of the members have found the olimate of Nebraska too warm for them after their return to the bosom of their dear constituents, and others have been promoted by civil service reform to posi- tions of whisky gaugers, distillery store keepers, post-traders, and other lucrative places.

The third richest man in the union, according to the New York Morning Journal, is John Jacob Astor, the chief owner and heir of the Astor estate, Un- like many millionaires, says the Journal writer, Astor haa both name and riches— aname linked with fabulous wealth of three succeeding genorations. The esti- mated value of the Astor estate is from £00,000,000 to $100,000,000, a veritable mountiin of gold. John Jacob and Wil- liam I, are its sols owners, the former's intereat said to be two-thirds, ilor nearly a century the title of being “the landlords of New York” has at- tached itsel? to them. John Jacob's in- torest in houses, lots, and farms may be computed in the thousands, Among the valuable buildings princi- pally owned by Mr. Astor as chief heir to the estate is the old landmark, the Astor house, which was sold to his father by his gyrandfather, the founder of the immense estate, for S, Its present val- ue is said to be $2,000,000, being assess- ed at $1,750,000. The Guaranty and In- demnity building chiefly owned by Mr. Astor, was purchased a short time ago for $1,000,000, while the Astor cstate pays taxes on 850,000,000 of real estato situated below Chamkters street, most of which consists of business houses on Broadway and Wall streets There is scarcely a ward, stroet or avenue in the city in which Mr. Astor does not own real estate, on which the total amount of tax- e8 i3 over 400,000 annually. Another point of ditference between Mr. Astor and other millionaires is in his investments. In Wall street his name never appears as a speculator and seldom as an investor or seller of stocks, bonds or other similar securities. Hav- ing an income of 10 per centon the gross amount invested in real estate, he quietly buys more houses or lands when opportunity for good investment offers. In an inventory made of his various prop- erties an item of $6,000,000 in cash ap- peared as ‘‘money in trust companies and banks waiting investment in real estate.” Mr. Astor is & man of striking person- al appearance, being over mix feet in height, stout, somewhat inclined to cor- pulence, and straight as an arrow. When on_the street his. quick, elastic step and smiling face, fringed witls small gray side whiskers, invariably attracted attention. His dress is simple and surprisingly neat. At business or in the street he wears a broadcloth cutaway or frock coat, with trousers to match, comfortable-looking shoes, alwags lightly polished, while in his hand usually swings. as he walks a large, purple silk umbrella. In summer his costume is changed to a black serge coat and trousers of some light color, while an easy straw hat rests lightly on his ivory-white hair. Mr. Astor, though seldom speaking of himself, recently told a friend that al- though he had compluted three score years, he felt as well and hearty as he did at 40. Benevolence is his striking char- acteristic, one probably inherited from the founder of tfw Astor library. Many of his charities are published, though the actual amount of gocd done with his ev- ery day check book is little known. In nearly all the charitable institutions of this city the names of himself or wife, and often jointly, appear as large givers. During the winter months Mr. Astor is either at his office at No. 21 West Twenty-sixth street, or at his home at No. 338 Fifth avenue. The latter is familiar to nearly every resident of Fifth avenue, and is conspicuous for nothing but its plainness and the spacious grounds which surround it. Bt is built of fine molded brick, with trimmings of brown stone, 2and has a double stairway leading to the front entrance. The interior com- pares favorably with any palace. During the Late illmess of his wife, Mr. Astor's time was chiefly devoted to cheer- iog her weary hours at the bedside with the same untiring aflection he has shown throughout the many years of his mar- ried life. His principal recreations are visits to his elegant country seat at Rheinecliffo-on-the-Hudson and yacht- ing. The country seav is an ancient- looking establishment, kept in the finest order,and is & reminiscence of olden time.

The old Gerke vineyard, which fcrms the nucleus, covers a space of seventy-five acres. To this one thousand acres of young vines were added in 1882 and fifteen hundred acres in 1883, The system that has been followed in planting vines is very systematic—the vines being an equal and exact distance apart, They are all thrifty and form a beautiful sight when viewed from any direction. The ibrigation of this vineyard is, perhaps the most complete in the world. At regular intervals through the vineyard avenues are cwt, which are forty feet in width. Through these avenues are run irrigating ditches, with a driveway on each side. The blocks thus formed by the irrigating ditches are about fifty yards wide, but extend a great length, and contaimabout onehundred-aczes each. In this way the system of irrigation is made complate, and all the land receives an equal proportion of water. Every two of these blocks are planted with a differ- ent variety of grapes. The main ditches run east and west across the field, and where the held is uneven, intersecting ditches are made. In some cases it has been necessary to construct flumes to carry the water over the lower lands. A flumeeighteen hundred feet leng has been built to carry water over the alfalfa field. Desides the ten thousand acres planted in vines, the governor owns ten thousand acres more that he has lately acquired by purchase, some of which he is now putting in grain and some i» used in pasture.
