THE DALILY BEE -TUESDAY DECEMBER i6 1884 Prospects of Tronbls for The Western Union. The lowa Pool Lines Moving on Omaha. The memorable walk-out of the West- orn Union operators s atill fresh in tho publlc mind and the embarrassment con- nequent therefrom will not soon be for- gotten, From present appearances it appears Lhat a similar catastrophy i .impcndlnu, Some time ago a reduction was made in the wages paid operators, which made » difference of from $30 to $50 a month In their salaries, and a further cut of 10 per cent is expected. Sunday meetings were held all over the United Sthtes and there was a firm determination among the men to restst the arbitrary cutting down of prices. At the former strike there were a numbor of old employes who stuck by, the company and_helped them tide over their troublos, This time the abl and best men are united in opposition tofthe reduction and the com- pany will find it no easy mattez to gather a force that can handle thelr work. There is no clags of workers more important to the general public and none whose duties are more arduous and 8o poorly remuner- ated. A strike among the telegraphers means a stagnation of news such as could result from no other source and yet the public will look more Ienlently on the ac- tion of the operators at this time than ovor before because the men who helped the company before are now united with thoir fellows in resisting an unjust re- duction of wages that would work a hardship to all. COMING TO OMATIA, There has becn a great deal of talk lately abour the Chicago & Northwestern road coming into Omaha, and it now looks as if not only this but the other Jines belonging to the Iowa pool were on 1t of crossing the river and mak- ing Omaha their western terminus. The construction of the side track from the Omaha and St. Paul road up to the Columbia brewery is regarded as the entering wedgo for the Northwestern for reaching the stock yards and, as the Blair bridge has proved such a failure, it 1s believed that there is to be constructed a bridge acroes the river at this point which will have its landing on this side where the browery siding begins. The C. B. & Q. short cut from Malvern to Council Blufis, and projected brldge across the Missouri to Omaha would tend to confirm the report that all the Iowa linos aro on the point of running into thig city at whatever cost. There has been 80 much sald on this subject that roference to it is regarded as romanding, but this time 1t seems to be in real earnest. Instead of the one bridge across the Missouri it looks as if we were soon to have three and as North Omaha is to b the locatlon of the new depot of C. & N. W,, there is abundant promise of a big boom for that part of the clty. THE FOUR COURTS. The Gage Comuty Statesmen Move o the Conspiracy Indictments. Mrs, Nelson Given Damages—Tho Leighton-Brown Cases Removed to the United Statcs Court, DISTRICT COURT. In this trlbunal, before Judge Neville, all of yesterday was consumed In the trial of the .state against Dodson. The defendant took the stand in the morning and occupied it untll court adjourned in the evening. Before Judge Wakeley the caso of Nelson against Rasmussen was given to the jury at4 p. m. After deliberasing for nearly four hours a sealed verdict for plaintiff was returned. Ten of thetwelve insurance companies, parties defendant in the suits instituted by Leighton & Clark, for recovery under theirpolicies of their losses by fire madeap plications for removal to the federal court “Tho applications get up the non-residence of the partios defendaut and wero granted of zright, OF the two companies not ap- plying for romoval, one has not been heard from by its local attorney, and the ond was sued for a aum less than %500, an amount of which the federal court has no_jurisdiction. Dr. Paul Grossman yesterday made & showing by aflidavit in the divorce case wherein he is the party defendant. The object of this aflidavit was to manifest to the court why he had not complied with the order of the judge to pay $75 to the plaintifl and alao to be allowed to pro- ceed under his cross bill to his wife's pe- tition, The aflidavit alleges that his practice, once worth £0,000° per annum, is now almost valueless, His prescrip- tions, which at one time amounted to over $400 per month, now do uot ex- ceed $20. This ruln of his business, he alleges, has been caussd by statements made concerning him by his wife and her friends. His house and lot, he avers, has been eold under a mortgage foroclosure and his personal property has been encumbered by £150 under per- mission of the court to comply with its order for alimony. UNITED STATES COTR In the Otoe reservation land fraud casos the defendants determined to move on the indictments and accordingly have filed motions to squash, The grounds of the motion are: first the acts charged do not cunstitate an offense charged under the laws of the United States; second, the lands s0ld were not the property of the United States and consequently it could not have been defrauded; third other defects and informalitles in the i dictments. Arguments upon the motion will take plece at an early day. This morning District ‘Attorney lam- bertson will call up the Lovejoy case and insist upon a trial this term. 1t is un- dorstood the defendants will apply for a continuande.

At a little past the hour for the assembling of court to- dey Judge McKay entered the building, Iaboring under great mental excitement, Calling the court to order In a very un- ceremonious manner, ho announced that if a jury was not impaneled for the next caso standing on the docket inside of two minutes he would adjourn court. Under this pressure, but greatly astonished, the Iawyers made quick work of running over the paneland a jury wassoon in tho box. Judge McKay, wholn the meantime had been muttering incoher- ently to himself, then ordered that the case for which the jury was ompaneled should go over, and the next one, for which no jary was empaneled, should be procecded with, This was the colebrated “‘Long Huggina” case, in which an es- tate of $30,000 is Involved. District Attorney Speer, seeing the necessity tor soouring an adjournment of court, asked for a continusnce, on the ground that Mrs Huggins was sick. *'Sick?" ex- claimed the judge, hasn’t she heen run. ning around here for a week?’ I am not very well myself,” said Mr. Speer, with a solemn face. *‘What's the matter with you!” was demanded by the judge, who was thoroughly aroused.” *I have neuralgla, and it affects my eyes,” was the responee. *‘Shut the woll eye,” oom- manded the judge. Mr. Speer did as told, and stood there with one eye closed and one open. **Can you see moe with that sick eye/’ demanded the judge. “‘Perfectly,” was Mr. Specr's responze, After much more incoheren- oy on tho part of Judgoe McKay, durlng which excitement among the lawyers be: came intense, the judge left the bench and was eeen sitting off by himself mak- ing curious gesticulations. Whether he was sick or under temporary aberration of mind was & question which was gener- ally debated 1t s known that the judge haa had much trouble, and some are in- clined to think from his action of the past weeks that his mind is affected. The matter is being (uietly talked of to-night by parties who propose to take such action: a8 tho developements make neces- sary. ———— POLITICAL POPCORN, Ten thousand women voted in Washington territory.

They likewise poszessed one molety of the neighboring clty of Tusculem, a strong presumption of their descent from the Counts of Tus- calum, who in the tenth century were the tyrants of the Apostolic sea. Ac- cording to their own and the public opin- fon, the primitive and remote source was derived from the banks of the Rhine; and, the sovereigns of Ger- many were not ashamed of a real or fabulous affinity with a noble race, which in the revolution of 700 yoars has often been illustrated by merit ana always by fortune. (In foot note Gibbon says: 1 cannot overlock the Roman triumph or ovatlon of Marco Antenio Colonna, who had commanded the pope's galleys at the naval victory of Lepanto,” Ootober 7, 1751.) About the end of the thirteenth century the most powerful branch was composed of an uncle antl six brothors, all conspicious in arma or in honors of the church.

The two Car- dinals, the uncle and _the nephew, denied the election of Boniface the Tighth; and the Colonna wero oppressed for & moment by his temporal and spirit- ual arms. He proclaimed a crusade agalnst his personal enemies; thoir estatos were confiscated ; theirfortresses on either gide of the Tiber were besieged by the troops of St. Peter und thoee of the rival nobles; and after the ruin of Palestripa, or Prinesta, thelr principal seat, the ground was marked with a plowshare, tho emblem of perpetual desolation. De- graded, banished, proscribed, the six brothers, In_disguise and danger, wan- dered over Europe without renouncing the hope of deliverance and revengo. In this double hope the French court was their surest asylum; they prompted and directed the enterprise of Phillip; and I should praise their magnanimity had they respeeted the misfortune and cour- age of the captive tyrant. His civil acts were annulled by the Roman people, who restored the honors and possessions of the Colonna; and some estimate may be formed of their wealth by their losses—of their losses, by the damages of 100,000 gold florins, which were granted them against the accomplices and _heirs of the deceased pope. All the spiritual censures and disqualifications were abol- ished by his prudent successors; and the fortune of the house was more firmly es- tablished by this transcient harricane. The boldness of Sciarra Colonna was slg- nalixed by the captivity of Boniface, and long afterwards in the coronation of Louis of Baveria; and by the gratitude of the emperor the pillar in their arms was encircled with a royal crown. But the firat of the family in fame and merit was the older Stephen, whom Petrarch loved and esteemed as # hero superior to his own times and not unworthy of ancient Rome. Persecution and exile displayed to the natlons hia abilitles in peace and war; in his distress ho was an object, not of pity, but of reverence; the aspect of danger provoked him to snnounce his name and country; and when he was asked, *‘Where is now your fortress!” he laid his hand cn his heart and answered, “Here.” Ho supported with the ssmo virtue the return of prosperity, and, till the ruin of his declining age, the ances- tors, the character and the children of Stephan Colonra_ exalted his dignity in the Roman republic and at the Court of Avignon, The Colonnas, from the date when Gibbon drops them until the present time have not been unworthy of their ances- tral renown; and it s quite safe to aflirm that in giviog her hand to a prince of this illustrious family, Miss Mackay, though the dsscendant of 8 long liue of Irish kings, has uot stooped halow her station. e e— He Worked for the Company.
