The Naflworks creek was on a tear and sub- merged many cellars In the vicinity, besides carrying off a lot of lumber. The cellar of & hotel on Tenth and Jones, was flooded and badly damaged. —W. P. Peck & Co., brokers, received the following specinl telegram yesterday after- noon from Avery, Hillabrant & Co., con- corning the Chicago markets: *Consols lower. Decline caused by vote of £11,000,000 credit by house of commons, War rumors of eyery kind started by speculators during the day. England refuses Russian demands, Mfrkefi closes easy and rather tired. Anticipate Omaha 1s growing rapidly, On every hand new Improvements are belng made, public and private bulldings are golng up and in every direction there are dis- coverable evidences of that growth which wil! serve to develop the olty into the metropolis of the great northwest. One Important evidence of Omaha's rapld advance toward the metropolitan is her system of street car lines. Spring- ing from a small and humble beginning, the system has kept pace with the im. provements of the clty, until now 1t has grown vastly larger, and Is from time to time putting forth new branches, as ne- cessity warrants, HISTORICAL. Iu the spring of 1869 the firat street car llne of Omaha started to operate. The track ran from the intersection of Ninth and Farnam streets to Fifteenth street and Capitol avenue, a distance eof about three-quarters of a mile. The event of the opening had long been her- alded by the newspapers, and the streets were thronged with people anxious to see the first car trip made by the single soll- tary car which composed the roll- fng stock of the company. The car was purchased by George W. Frost Esq., as a discarded OChlcago omnibus and was made over into a street car. And when the rickety little appa- ratus passed up Farnam street, lo: down with the representative cltizens who wera partisipating in the festivities of the occasion, the enthusiasm of the spectators was unbounded. The omnibus car was soon abandoned and four large cars put on; the line was extended from Ninth and Farnam to Niath and Jones atreets on the south, and from Fifteenth street and Capitol avenue to Twenty-first and Cuming streets on the north to where the present offices and barns are located. The track was then two miles long and operated four cars with drivers and conductors. It was controlled and managed by E. B. Chandler. Every other passenger rode Jowr markets to-morrow, but wheat looks | free, .'?"‘fi-y either a stockholder i or 80 ‘in some way purchase on breaks, Corn still controlled by with s siaasamant e the olique. June wheat 904 on curb.”” —The temperance lecturer, Montague, con- tinues his meetings in the rink, and sesms to bo creating & lively interest, Mr. McDon- ald, of the Y. M. C. A, is leader of the sing- ing service, which is really enjoyable. Mrs. M. J. Coolby last night addrossed those pres- ent and considerable enthusiasm followed. She spoke for the boys very earnestly and was followed by Mr, Montague. A consider- ablo numbar of persons sigaed the pledge and donned the "blue” badge. The public are in- vited to come and bring their gospel hymns. The ribbon 18 plenty also. —Win, McCormick, the tailor of Fifteenth and Farnam, was going home night before Iaat, towards South Omaha, whem a man road did not pay, but was kept up by assessments and other means. A mort- gage of $20,000 was placed upon it, and in 1872 it fell lInto the hands of A.J. Hanscom, Esq., who returned from Poughkespsle, N. Y., to take the road, as he waa the heaviest owner of stock. ¥rom ths day he took It, it changed from & losing concern to a money making in- stitution. Instead of nearly every one dead-heading, every one pald their fare and this was the _ se- cret of the former losses. In July, 1873 Capt. W. W. Marsh bought Hans- som’s Interest and durlog the ensuing year extended the Saunders street line to Shinn's additlon making the total tracksge at that time 2} miles, The four bob-tall cara now used on the Thir- teenth street line were then purchased and put in service. In 1876 the Eigh- teenth street line was bullt tv Lake’s ad- dition, comprising two miles of track and eperating three oars making seven cars used in the city alto- gother. 1In 1876 a track was laid up Tenth street from the depot and the cara then first commenced ranning down Ninth and up Tenth street t o Farnam. The St. Mary’s avenue line, consisting of two miles of road, from the corner of Farnam streets to Hanscom'’s park, was built in 1882, and the Thirteenth street line was finished last fall and cars put on early this year, IMPROVEMENTS, The street-car company has made many improvements within ~ the past fow months and {s contemplating farther ad- ditlons this year. By about the first of next month, the new Farnam street line willbe in operatton. This line will be from Fifteenth and Farnam to Jefferson street, thence across Jefferson to Oapitol avenue, on which It will run west to a polnt not yet determined, It Is not yet decided as to whether this line will cross over and connect with the St. Mary's avenue line; the curves are belng lald, with a view to such a thing, al- though it wlll be impoasible to make the move iyet. because there are no streets direotly open to the avenue. At any rate, 1t 1n expected that the cars will be run- jumped at him and ordered him to throw up his hands and put up his monoey, McCormick was willing to throw np both hands and feet. But took pains to plant the latter about the middle of the stranger and doubled him up. The thug straightened himself after » few moments and made tracks, This thing is get- jog a8 common in Omaha as 16 used to be in the border towns along the Atlantic and Pa- cific and the A. T. & 8. . railroad lines. e —— PERSONAL. Postal;Inspector Steen is in tho city. John D, Oreighton Is confined by sick- ness. Ex-Judge Colby, of Buffalo county, waa in Omaha yestorday. Ten of W. J.

The company has bought elght new cars this spring, four of which bave arrived and the others will be here this week. With these the total equip- ment of the different lines is forty cars, of which thirty-three are closed or ordia- wry cars, ard seven are open or summer oars. They are worth on su aversge $1,000 each making $40,000 for all. T} oonpsny et present owns 200 horses. They are worth $50 cach, making & wvalue for stock of $13,750, The company owns two large stables, and oar houses, on Park avenue and the other on Cum. iog street. The{ are worth $10,000. Employment s iven to over 100 rogulars, Including drivers, hostlers, blacksmiths, repalrers, etc , and from fifty to 100 track-layers daring the summer months. The total plant cost it will be seen from the above figures lsnearly $200,000. BUYING NEW HORSES, In pursnance of its policy of improve. ment, the company intends to add large- ly to Its stable stock this year. on have already been sent out to buy in the 8t. Louls and Kansas City markets and the present number of horses will bs In. creased to 275, A reporter In conversa- tlen yesterday with a gentleman who has charge of this department, learned some interesting facts relative to the matter of buying and breaking In horses for street oar work. The anlmals required must be tough and able to stand the straln of heavy work. The stock hitherto has been pur- chased largely In the Kansas Oity and Chicago markets, and in North Platte also a large numoer have been secured. An ordinarily doclle animal requires no spacial tralning for street oar jwork. Once In a while, however, a horse Is ploked up which is hard to break In, and although in time he would probably be- come acoustomed to the work, he is re- placed by seme animal more capable and willlng, *‘In fact,” sald a gentleman well posted on the subject, ‘‘thera is not the horse living that we can not In time break Into the work, If we care to take the trouble.” The new animals will be distributed over the varlous lines, in proportion to the Increased number of trips which the contemplated changes will necessitate.

The Factions Meet in Battle Array —iThe Opening Testimony, This morning at ten o’clock the formel deposition of testimony in the Boyd- Murphy contest for the mayoralty, was commenced in the court of Justice Bart- lett. The attorneys in the case were: E. W. Simeral, Esq., in behalf of R. C. Duncan, the contestant, and Mesera. Woolworth, Savage and Connell, repre- senting Mr. Boyd, whose title to the office s being contested. The firat thing done was the filing of a formal protest by Mr. Boyd's attor- neys, against the taking of any testimony In this matter for the rcason that the persons before whom the testimony was to be taken have no jurisdiction to take the same, as | &: the clty ordinance under which the pro- ceeding was had, was in conflict with the state law relative to contested city elec- tions, and that thereforo everything done in accordance with the city ordi- nance would be null and vold. No officlal action was taken upon the pro- test. The first witness called on behalf of tha contestant was Mr. Frank Colpstzer, He testified that he was a resident of this clty and an elector in the Fourth ward; that on the day of election, the 7th of Aprit, he worked for the oltizens’ ticket, spending the whole day in the First ward. He tcetified that he certified to about twelve persons whom he knew to be resi- dents of that ward and entitled te vote therein, but he did not take any oath that he was a resident of the first ward, and did not know that the papers that he | signed were of the nature of an oath,and did not find out that he was swearing to anything until about four or five o’clock that day. At least ten of the parties for whom he made these certificates voted for James E. Boyd. Inreference to carrylng off| the ballot box of the first ward he had nothing to do with it, except that one of the judges of the election put the box in his buggy, and he drove with the judge up to the city clerk’s office, where 1t was deposited, according to law. The cross examination of Mr. Col- potzer and the taking of further testl- mony in the matter wereadjourned until 10 o'clock this morning, at the same place. There is no Intention on the part of Mr. Duncan and his frlends to drop the prosecution, but on the other hand the fight will be pushed to the bitter end. Since it has become known that Mr. Boyd’s title to the mayoralty was to be contested, the testimony to the frauds on ithe part of the Boyd men to secare the election of their chlef has been piling up. Witneses have been coming forward and volunteering to testify to the barefaced frauds which were perpetrated, and It Is now quite prebable that Mr. Boyd and hls friends will recognize the serlous oharacter of the situation and prepare to make as vigorous a defense as msy be possible. BAILROAD NOTES. The Present Cut Rate War-Other Items of Railroad Interest. The cut rate war on fraight, which is now raglog so fieroely on the lowa roads, shows no sigus of closing at an early d The rates yesterday were: First cla thirty eents; second class, twen! third oclass, fifteen cents; fo and below, ten cents, might say,” ssld & prominent Union Pacific ~officlal to = reporter yesterday morning ‘‘that Monday, for the first time In fourteen or fifteen years, a soale of rates below the regular tariff has been openly offered; of course, there has at times been secret cutting by some of the Iowa roads, even below ff polnts, but so carefully and strongly has the pool been maintained that there has been no open slashing. No, I do not think there are very good prospects for early peace,” There are too many complications con- stantly rlsing to admit of an early settle- ment of the difficulty.
