OBJECTOR HOLMAN OBJECTS. He Opposes Appropriations For Repairing Forts Robinson and Niobrara. HE SAYS THEY ARE NOT NEEDED. The President to Veto the Mexican and Harrison Service Pension Bills Democrats Kick on Cleveland ~Washington News. The Forts Must W WasiiNaron, July 2% ~[Specinl Telegram to the Ber]—Objector Holman, of small cas pacity as a statesman but large as an ob- structor of sensible lozislation, for the third time to-day objected to the consideration of the bill making an_ appropriatton to repaic Forts Robinson and Niobrara. Holman says both forts are unnecessary. Ile is willing that Fort Niobrara shall be put in good condi- tion, but says Fort Robinson isnot needed and that he will not submit to having it re- pared. Tt is so late in the session now, and there is such arush for consideration of measures of national importanee, that the Nebraska delegation despair of securing this appropriation till next winter, Holman, who pits his knowledge of the needs of the arny against that of the war department and numerons officers, has persistently fought this measure, and its failure of consideration VETO MORE BILLS. i tlemocratio authority that President Cleveland intends to veto the Mex- h-n pension bill it the opportunity is offered hin, The measure has been passed by both of congress and 15 now in conference ement upon an amendment wade by nate.

This rather staggered the executive, and he told the senator that he would consider the matter, but he did not think he would do it. Cockerell swears he will speak to override every veto that comes up, if it is not done. ! TMOLMAN'S SENATORIATL TOOM, . Information received here from Indjana; through democrats in the southern and west- ern portions of the state, shows that if the election this fall should resultina vietory for the denioerats that Representative Hol- man, of L object” fame, will tigure much more prominent a8 a senatorial candidate than men in his party who aspire to be poli- ticians and statesmen gl\'c him credit for. It transpires that the objector had a double purpose in making sucha powm-fullf deter- mined race for re-nomination recently, He not only wanted a_re-election to the lower house, " but a boom for the senate. Mr. Holman has developed into n \'t!l?‘ astute politician of late. He has rami- fied is pohitical fortifications with many office-holders, and it is observed by one who has followed closely the character of his ap- nointees that all of them are more or less in- fluential in his state, and can serve him a good purpose in & campaign like that for the senate will be. So the old wentleman is lay- ing his ropes deep and ina foxy manner, and by virtne of fact has at this time & strong and growing following. Governor Gray, who is a yearning aspirant for the sena uoted as ‘referring to Hol- man as a very forinidable candidate; and ex- Senator McDonald, likewise a prominent candidate for the position now occupied by Senator Harrison, also regards Holman as a troublesome element in the way of other am- bitious men i the state, Just at this time Mr. Holman, by various oflicial acts, is work- hnaquiall) and effectively towards the senate end of the eapitoland will be heard from at the proper tini THE WYNNE PENSION CASE, “The case of Peter Wynne, which has been figuring in the pension office investigation before the senate committee, is a notorious one,” said an emrluye of the office to-day, “Eor u|:\n¥ years it was bandied around and made specinl upon various pretexts, until it became a stench to the examiners. 1 remem- ber that when Dudley was commissioner he gave it a faly and Ginpartial hearing, and it failed, as 1t had frequently before. There was 80 much prejudice against it, (0o, that Col. Dudley had dificulty in securing an im- partial man to review it, When he had succeeded — in - finding the man’ ho called him up and said: *This ecase, has been passed upon, adversely, by a num- ber of men in the oftice, and th ey aro prejus diced against it. 1 understand that you have had nothing to do with it and know nothing about it.

Well, the. report was adverse, as usnal, ‘There was no possible chance for Wynne getting a {n’naflon except by arbitrary order, like ieneral Blackgave, at the request of ' Gen- eral Roseerans. You sec, the trouble was the case was made up on the affidavits of two, wmen, both of whom had cases pending inthe office, and for whom Wynne was a witness,, It Jooked like a case of trading—a case of ‘You tickle me, and Ull tickle you.'

I know people right on this street who are occupying frame houses for business purposes, — and have aid rent enough to builld a block of rick. Yes, sir, I know people who have paid $20,000 in rent for buildings on this street, and when those buildings were first occupied, together with the ground on which they stood, weren't worth $500. Now you couldn’t buy them for §i5,000. In the first place, they won't be for sale for several years, a5 the owners won't and next, because even if they could be sold the present owners know too well what figure to ask for them.

"The young fotlow gtubbornly re- fused to.enter the car. His reason for the refasal was mwot quite appare ont “until the train was orossing the bridge over the Elkhorn river, when the atflicted youth made a desperate ef- fort to leap from the train. He was onught by his sistor, who held him until she was aided by the conductor, who rushed to the rescue, in removing her afllieted brother into the — car Arriving in Omaha the young woman - started with her brother to see if she conla get him taken into St, Joseph's hogpital.

Whoether he will carr his resolution ot ending his {ife before he is again restored to his sister’s gentle care remaias to be seen. TENTH STR T RUSH AND CRUSH. Scenes That Tickle the Nerves Around the Tenth Streot Crossing. Affairs at the upper Tenth street eross- ing of the Union Pueific railway are ge ting worse every day, and it is wonder- ful that fatal accidents do not occur every twenty-four hours. The company use the street and nity for making up froight trains and this, with the arrival and departure of passenger trains, prac- tically renders this portion of Tenth street of no use as a public thoroughfare. With switch engines pufling up and down, ears passing into the depot by theincline with- oat locomotive power, trains coming m and going out, the place is a perfect Babel. The fact of the mat- ter is the company has not half room enough for switching purposes and blockades are continually happening. The other evening the inconming overland train reached the Thirteenth strect bridge on time but owing to the prescnce of numerous freight cars it did not get into the depot until an hour behind tim Last evening No. 4 from the west v forty minutes late, The Missouri Pacific came in just ahead, and when the first named arrived it stretched across Tenth street. Two tracks to thenorth a freight tramn was across the street. By actual count there were thirty vehicles of all sizes and descriptions on one side of the ¢ ng and thirty-five on the other with over a hundred people seeking a passageway, some north, some south. A delay of fully fifteen minutes occurred, wd of course the crowd was steadily angmented. Imagine the scene when an opening was mude. Horses, cabs, car- riages, busses, wagc pedestrians, ete., ran into each other and a generalen- tanglement resulted. To add to the trouble several engin commenced to pass up and down, and were it not for the superhuman efforts of the fagmen fatalities would certainly have occurred. The Tenth street crossing is the most dangerous nuisance extant, and some ac- tion should be taken to remedy the evil. A “FLY COPPEI'S” SOLID GIRL. Two Lower Order Beautiss Engage in a Street Fight fcie a “Detec.” Just at the supper hour last evening a boxing mateh for biood with bare hands and without rules took place between two beauties of the lower order in frontof the waterworks office on Farnam strect. Lu Scott,n well known character, as for three or four years, she alleges, had a cortain detective for a solid fellow. OF late, however, her mighty heart has been al- most broken by the knowledge of the fact that the affections of her pretty little “fly copper” have become alienated through the scheming of # young girl named Bell Hollenbeck, an inmate of Mollie Wright's place. ‘T'oconvince herself that Belle was responsiblo for her loss of a loyer, Lu wrote a note to Belle yesterday, sign- ing the name of the doubly toved “detec,” appointing a meeting on Far. nam street at 6:30 o'clock 1 She then stationed herself to opments, Promptly at the hour med the victim appeared in sight and was immediately ponnced upon by the waoman who had lost a lover, Both parties came to the serateh in good fighting trim, but Bel wa§ evidently surprised at the sudden turn of aftairs and allowed Luto win the match in one round. The Hollenbeck givk was somewhat bruised and scratched ubout the head and face and had her clothing badly torn. Both par- ties were arrested and taken to the jail, where they gave security for their appearance for trial this morning. 3 The most noticeable feature of the fight was the black eye which T.u Scott gave a Watchman reporter who songht an inter- view with her concerning the cause of the trouble.
