BEFORE THE COMMISSIONERS | W raska Railway Managers Reply to the Oharges of Discrimination, THE JACKSON PRELIMINARY. Trouble at Nebraska City—A Orowd of Tramps—Didn't Count—FPo- lice News About the Town, | FIOM TIR BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.| The meeting much advertised to take Place between the railway commission and the management of Nebraska roads came off on schedule time at the office of the commission yesterday. Amon in attendance from the roads we eral M those Gen- ager George W, Holdrege of the n, General Freight Agent Miller of the same road, Thomas L. Kimball and P. . Shelby of the Union Pacific d Kent C. Morehouse of the Fre- mont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley., T'he Missouri Pacific was unrepresented. President I. M. Raymond of the board of trade, J.J. Imhoff, Charles H. Gere, Eli lummer and others were present repre- genting the question in which Lincoln was interested and Messrs. Macon, Ager and Buschow, secretaries of the commis- sion; a number of the state of ers and Teporters composed the remainder of the nudienc Hon. 1. M. Raymond opened the ball by stating what Lincoln, as a cty, de manded and 1n his judgment was entitled to. Ho cited the discriminations that ex- isted, the rates that mitigated against Lincoln wholesalers and Lincoln people in a secondary way, and believed the time had come when the city should be granted the Missouri river rate, or if not that, the rate should be no greater than the Omaha rate plus payment for the fow extra miles at a proportionate rate per mile for the whole distance from Chicago. ‘The difiiculty in the rate seemed to be that an additional local rate was added to the terough Chicago rate to Omeha, to represent the added distance to Lincoln, “Ihe relative distances from Chicago and St. Louis to Omaha and Lincoln we discussed, end the inequality of rates and mileage was dwelt upon by Mr. Raymond, “The question of placing Lincoln on equal terms with Omaha, by making the sum of the in and out rates equal for the two places, was not objected to by Mr. Ray- mond, but his opinion remained that the time had come which should give Lincoln & Missouri river rate, Mason called upon Thomas 2 11 and that official responded that he did not know that any complaint had been made against his road and consequently there was no occasion for vemarks upon his part. Judge Mason in- sisted that the Union Pacific was an im- finrlilnt factor in the making of rates, ut Mr. Kimball leaned back iu his chair with an air of unconcern. Judge Mason returned to the attack and asked Mr. Kimball if it was not a fact that the Union Pacific, in conjunction with a number of trunk lines in lowa, did not l;mcllm\lly establish the rates to Ne- raska points and compel other roads to follow thi: edule. To this Mr. Kim- ball only responded with a laugh, and it ‘was noticeable that Judge Mason did not receive the answer with the greatest pa- tience, and upon the shining bald head of the judge there burned for several min- utes a bright red spot. . Mr. Holdrege was the next speaker and he made a very full and fair state- ment of his side of the case and evinced a willingness to discuss the question in all fairness so far as Lincoln was concerned and answer the t}unstim\s propounded to him. In all of Mr, Holdrege's remarks, he sheltered the company in saying what they might do, under the assertion that it would be done as nearly as possible. Mr, Holdrege thought that by the 1st of Juiy, when, as he alleged, ‘the Doane law would cease to exist, the Burlington rond would be able to give Lincoln an in and out rate equal with a like rate in Omaha; that is, that the sum of the in %IYl out rate should {)c the srmu for Ljn- oln as the sum of the in and out rate for Omaha. In the course of his remarks Mr. Holdrege called the attention of the Lincoln people and the commission that he had other people to satisty and other nngers to molify. To illustrate this he roead from a list of jobbers in Omaha their statement handed to his com- pany, that if Lincoln was given the same i rate as Omaha, that they as jobbers and shippers would not ship over and patronize the road accord- ing such a rate. r. Imhoft' said that what was wanted ‘was that Lincoln be given an equal show with Omaha, Mr. C. H. Gere said, in his {ud 'ment, it would be better for all parties if Lin- coln was given the same in rate as Omaha, the distance from St. Louis favor- ing such a rate for Lincoln,and the added distance from Chicago to Lincoln being 80 inconsiderable as to make no material difterence against the eity. He regarded such a solution as the most easily to be attained. Judge Mason, as one of the secretaries of the commisslon, said what was wanted was a definite answer. Discriminations ‘were known to exist on the tariff sheets that wrought a positive injury. He want- ed it done peucefully if it could, and if not it would be war, and the question of discriminating 1n rates would be taken either before the inter-state commerce commission or in the circuit court of the United States. After an adjournment for the noon hour the meeting again assembled, Mr. C. K. Morehouse was called upon, but he cited the fact that no complaint had been made against his road; further, he stated that he had no authority in the matter of long rates, a8 his road wasa local one. He was, however, willing to co-operato for a settlement of the question. Mr. T. L. Kimball said thore were the threo ways of settiement: Through the commission, through the courts and by a general understanding arrived at by the different roads. He thought that within three weeks the roads interested could meet and examime and rettle upon their course, and give their answer tothe com- mission of what they would be willing to o, Mr. Holdrege and Mr. Morehouse thought this a good plan, and the meet ing thereupon adjourned to meet and re- coive the answer of the roads and upon what course they would pursue upon the 16th day of June, at 10 a. m., at the office the commission, JACKSON'S PRELIMINARY. Jackson the murderer of Gleason in the penitentiary, was brought into Judge Parker's court yesterday and given a preliminary hearing. The evidence was argely as fieretofore reported and the of the killing was admitted by se, obviating the necessity of A number of witnesses to corobo- rate that fact. The most important tes- timony was that ot another conviet, who stated that Gleason and Jackson had trouble prior to the Killing when both were in the stone yards. County Attor- ney Stearns will file an information aguinst Jackson for murder in the first degree when the preliminary papers reach the district court, and L. C. Burr, who defends, will undoubtedly plead that the assault was provoked and the case was one of cold versus molten metal. . tT:‘ul'l“LB AT l‘nm‘::A OITY. Late Monday evening governor re- seived a eom.gmnlufion from Nebraska Jity, reciting the ravages of hydropho- bia in two differont precincts in Otos county. It will be remembered that last fall serious trouble was anticipeted and a 2ood deal of stock was bitten and killed from the results of a mad dog raid in that county. From the tenor of the com- munication it is evident that prompt tion should be taken at once in that yi- cinity, and if the communication, which comes from a reliable sonrce, bears out the facts, a deplorable state of affairs ex- ists.* Following is the letter received by the governor, Nepraska Crry, Ne His Exceliency, Go Lincoln, Neb.~Honored Sir: weeks Inst Syimpioms of 21, 1887.—To M.

Major Birney, accompanied by Dr. Nissel, of Hastings county, Neb., were in the city yesterday morning toinvestigate, T p of thirteen irt with the and indifter amped After they were arraigned and entered the usual ploa of not guilty and not vagrants, each man arose, saluted the judge, and pleaded his own case, Tha first staried out with the asser- tion that he was a railroad man in se of work, and from Plattsmouth. This was a cue for the remainder of the rank and file, every mother's son of them claiming to hail from Plattsmouth with a unanimity that looked as though the city down on_the river was being depopu lated. One of them in his zeal to hail from Plattsmouth said that he left that place and was on lis way home to Indiana, totally unmundfal of the geographical muddle that he placed him- selfin, There were a good many cases of bodily ailments. One had a bandaged hand, another was a consumbtive and had left home and friends in Pittsburg for his health. The judge, however, was used to the crowd and amidst a ieral uprising and loud proffers to leave the city in five minutes time, the judge tined them $20 each and costs. ¢ minutes later a despondent gang were thoy, as with shovels in hand they started forth to work for the municipality. Four plain drunks were disposed of, and the colored man who the night before amused him- self by beating members of his family while in & drunken state was given $10 and costs and committed. IN DISTRICT COURT. Yesterday morning's proceedings in district court were meagre. In the case of the traveling man Chapman, against s house for violation of contract the jury gave Chavman $768.90 damages, which is a verdict that traveling men es- pecmllfy will peruse with interest.

Randall Brown,the mind reader and mesmeriat, arrived in the city with his wife yesteeday and is enroute to Minnea- polis for thesummer. Mr. Brown has just come from Australia. He says the island 18 dead, a business panic having struck it. He went there, looked around, and immediately returned to this country. He has the ideait is a d country ordi- narily, but it is sadly in need of Ameri- can enterprise. Melbourne, the chief city, has a population of 200,000, On the railroads both American and English cars are used. Regarding Bishop, Mr. Brown said he had heard of that gentleman's troubles. He thought Bishop was foolish to endeavor to circulate them. It was not the right kind of an advertisement. e ‘What Would the World Do without women? asks the essaist who starts out to swy somethigz new on this oft-treated subject. Of course, the human element of the world would not exist without woman, so the question is gratuitous. It would have been far more sensible to ask: What would the world do without the salvation of woman, without a panacea for lner‘rhyuicul ills and care for her peculiar diseases: In a word, what would the world do without Dr. Pierce's “Favorite Perscription,” the reat remedy for female weakness?
