] THE ROCK ISLAND COMIN Unmistakable Bigns That This Road is Beading For the Capital City, OTHER RAILROAD WORK PLANNED | it Oneof Trov Police unday Rior The Fish Intercats Visite ‘or the ted— IrIoM THE BEF'S LINCOLN RURFA U] ““T'he Rock Tsland road is coming to Lincoln the preseat year,” said a well versed railroad man to aknot of specul tive gentlemen, and the prophecy is very gencerally believed., This idea is added te largely by the fact that Rock Island sur- veyors have been at work south and cast of the city, and from the fact that in the last few weeks of summer weather in winter many new stakes have been driven which gives rumors a certain air of permanency. A gentleman in the city who is interested in Lincoln property recites that in the fall months, when an engineer of the Rock Island was looking over the city for a number of days, that this oflicial ur beyond instructions s to assert that the road would be built. The compass of the sur- veyors points to an entrance of the road into the city from the southeast, skirtir the castern limits of the city, from which vosition a connection ean be made with other lines to enter the mammoth union depot that ye prophetic ci ven alrcady sces erected for general use, Among the most recent assertions regarding the Roek Igjand road is that it is to make Lincoln a junction pommt from the south over the line now at Beatrice and from the east from the main line in Towa, crossing the Missouri river south of the mouth of the Platte and coming di- rectly to the capital city. From the smoke of all these propositions thé Lin- coln citizen expects the fires of reality to arise and shine upon the boom of the coming summer. There will be a great deal of railrond building in Nebraska the coming year. A good illustration ot this s gleaned in the course of an in- terview with Chareh Howe, who is now at th pital eity. Mr. Howe, or rather the firm of Church Howe & Son, who have been engaged the past th years in supplyi to the ronds from their forest lands in Arkansas, ha recently { contraets for 2,000,000 ties to be delivered for railroad building in N braskathe coming year. ‘These contracts are made with the Missouri Pacilic, the Northwestern and the Union Pacific, 500,000 of the lot going to the latter com- pvany. Mr. Howe stated that he had se- cured the contract from this company a few days ago at Omaha. Further, he states that they expected to contract for ties with the B. & M , who, hov not let their contracts until Apr immense supplies of constri terial undoubtedly mean reat deal of new building, well as repairs on the line, although, presumably, u large lot of the Northwestern materizl will e used in Wyoming A SUNDAY RIOT. The police force was called upon about 10 o’clock yesterduy to quell s riot that originated in the notorious resort of Mabel Smith, down in the bottoms west of the city. A man, who refused to gy his name, came to headquarters with iied n «d atale of hair- udth esc rs that aro from his visit to that that he asserted had assaulted him tried to rob him of life we Smith, the hushand of 1l womun, Jack Smith a notorious character around police circ the young man, name unknown, w pardoned some time since from the bail and chain gang by the mayor, who hoped that the young man would mend his wa. and become a decent citizen, The don, however, did no good, for the chap is now delighting to run with the tough cst erowds that he can find. The a. sanlted party in this fracas said that they had chased him as far us the St. Charles hotel, and thither the police repaired, where they found Jack Smith, and after # deal of trouble landed hum in jail, The other two chaps, however, succeeded in cludimg the oflicers for tho time being, but they will be found and fined at least, if they remain m the city. Warrants were issued” in police court vesterday for the arrest of two parties named E. Kitchen and Grant Dodd, who are wanted for ulting and robhing a man named George W. Cox. 1t was tu- mwored that in this Sunday fr s that a man had sustwined a broken leg, but it could not be traced to any foundation in fact. From the arrests of the day a voluminous police court will be held to- morrow and the school tund be largely augmented. THE FISH INTERESTS VISITED, Tho members of the house way means committee that yisited the state tish hatchery at South Bend report them- solves as greatly pleased with the work done there and the business prospect. the piseatorial interests of Neb “I'he house committeo was accompanicd by Fish Commissioners May, of Fremont, and Kennedy, of Omaha, and on their arrival at the Bend they were met by Dr, Livingston, the other member of the board. A carcful review of the state interests at the Santee lakes was taken by the legislators, and it was the ex- pressed opiion of one of the members that the fish commission had more good substantial results to show for the s 1 appropriations they had to work with than any other institution in the stute. The hatchery was in the midst of the trout season, and the midwinter's work that the superintendent has in hand wa watched with much interest. A dinuer builded of Nebraska grown fish was one of the features of the day that the vis- itors were wont to refer to with great frequency in the brief and migratory in- terview had with them, ASANGUINARY NIGHT, y night was a sanguinary one n rows, 1 nd fistic in the capi- tal city, and ter dayhght yesterday morning a couple of women of the town who had boeen out for the night closed the proceediugs with a hair pulling seray On Tenth street, in the course of the night, two men engzaged in_ war, one knocking and runn d being overtakenand badly kicked and abused, Noarrests.
