Five Thousand People Present to Oclebrate the Railroad's Oompletion. A GLAD AND MEMORABLE EVENT. The First News Dispatch From That PointSent to the “Bee," Telling of the Event—Other State News, Celebrated In Style. Loup Crry, Neb,, June 4.-—[Special Tele- gram to the Beg.]—The date tixed for the grand barbecue and festival was a favorable one, indeed. Promptly at 12 o'clotk the great excursion train pulled in here, the en- gine gaily festooned, bringing in all about fifteen hundred people. Nine coaches and two sleepers brought the delegations from Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, St. Paul and Columbus. Governor Dawes, State Auditor Babeock, Superintendent Dorrance and eight or nine of the city conneil of Omaha are pres- ent: also Assistant General Ticket Agent McCarty, C. F. Newton, supervisor of bridges and buildin Mr. Capron, supervisor of track, and J. R. Manchester, of the railway circles of Omaha. The tables were filled with an abundance of eatables, containingabout three thousand pounds of meats, ples, cakes and bread without number. The town 1s fairly burdened with decorations, and everyone {3 in good spirits and wandering how‘a town of 600 people could ever undertake the hur- culean task of feeding 5,000 people, as that is the lowest estimate made of the number of our guests. Bands of music and loud fire arms abound. The railroad officials and Omaha delegation will probably remain until to-morrow. The enthusiasm is unbounded. SIMPSON ARRIVES HOME, The Defaunlting Treasurer Reaches Nebraska City Safely. NEBRASKA C Veb., June 5.—[Special Telegram to the I —The Kansas City train was late last night, but when it arrived, about midnight, it brought Duke W.

Late last night Deputy Sheriff Hub- erlee received a dispateh asking him to meet him at Dunbar, on the Missouri Pacific railroad. This was no doubt a ruse, a8 the somewhat aristocratic prisoner is said to haye arrived by the Kans City route. In fact the first view the BER reporter had of him, atter several diligent hours watching, was scated in a svring wagon between the sheriff and his deputy, his wife and child being seated ia the second seat, while the driver, who was lash- ing his horses to their utmost speed, occupled the tront se At this rapid gait they went up Otoe street until reaching Sixth street when, turning, they came on to Main street; up that street, hotly followed by the Ber mun on foot to Fourteenth street, pa: ing the jail at Eleventh ‘stre Fron this point the reporter lost t them, but it 1s thought ihe party dr about one mile into the country to the resi- dence ot his uncie, R, F.

For the past yi the family had been searching tor their erring daughter and had but recently received informa- tion which led them to think that she was in Omaha. She wanted an officer to ccompany her and make a search of the city for her missing daughter.
