THE OMAHA DAILY BEEY MONDAY., JUNE 0. 1887. THE SALE OF STATE LOTS. £ The Balance of the Three Hundred Disposed \« Y v -3 of at Satisfactory Prices. A GOOD SUM REALIZED: ®he Annual Commencement Excrcises of the State University to De Held Wednesday—Capital City News, [FROM THE BEEL'S LINCOLN BUREAU.| The sale of state lots was completed Baturday, the last lot put up selling for double that of other lots of equal ap- praisement, showing that the interest was unabating at the close. The 800 lots brought at the sale nearly $100,000, and pold on an average of nearly three times the appraisal placed upon them. Aside from the fact that a number were allowed To go at appraised prices to alleged poor people the sale passed off with the best of sal tion, and if the imposi- tions that predominated in the lots let off at appraised prices had baen observed gooner the partics who advoeated that gcheme would have been smothered ear- Jier in the sales. A number of Omaha parties were large buyers, and purtics from outside the state obtained a number of the bargains, while local property owncrs and real estate men wero liberal in offers and large buyers, The proceeds of the sale are adequate in every way to supply all the funds required to beautify the grounds at the state capitol, and as the act of the legislature exp y stip- sulated that the money should be used in this way, the work will be done, Owing Mo the season of the year it is not prob- “able that work in this line will be com- quenced until the comng spring.

About thirty members of the Nebraska clam bake association, residents of Lin- ;oln, departed for the camp at Crete Saturday and were joined there by mem- ors from Crete, Omaha and other points, Bulletins were received through Satur- day evening, but nothing whatever could e heard from the camp yesterday. An ye-witness of the scene when the great meal was m preparation describes As- Emmm Cook Courtnay, while he raked ithe livo gonls under the broiling clams, "{0 happiest man in the crowd, dresses ut in a white vest, long apron and a towel wrapped about his classic brow. JYohn Knight was husking the supply of reen corn and Tom Cook was stealing ait. A later bulletin brought the in- {urmnllon that General MoBride had, as s & custom of his, succeeded in eating more clams than any one in the pacty, beating his _own record by dlu&mcln‘!x of ust 2,004 of the shell fish. The final ulletin that reached the city was dated at 3 a. m, and described the camp wrnpl}ed in slumber with the exception of O'Neill, who was in the midst of an oration that promised to last until day- light, the orator being so wrought up with his subject that he' was oblivious of the worn and weary bakers. The dele- gation are expected home this morning Wwith the complete minutes of the meet- ing. ABOUT TIHE CITY, A represontative of the Armour dressed meat company, of Chicago, was in Lin- coln the past week quietly looking the ground over and perfecting plans to sup- vly Lincoln markets with dresscd moa of all kinds furnished by refrigerator cars from Chicago. But very fow of the butch- ers and slaughter men are as yet ap- mmsod of this moveaent, and it is safe say they will look with no pleasure u['nlt_)n competition of this character. ha m“ucmx firepuen, it is under- match game of ball on yevonlnfi. Pagtios having gaso- ine stoves will confer & fayor by not nsln%‘thom during the game. A large number of spootators who are disgusted ‘with the police force will pray during the gamo for many accidents. Word has been received that the mem- bers of the Lutheran general syned, now in session at Omaha, will stop at Lincoln Wodnesday next on their excursion to Beatrice. The excursion train will reach Lincoln about 10 a.m., and two hours will be given the excursionists to view the city, . K. Touzalin is expected in Lincoln the present week, and his visit may de- velop plans that he has in store for the large tract of suburban property that he acquired & few worths ago. Extensions of the Lincoln street railway lines will ulso engross his attention, as Xe is one of the principal owners of the line. That their lines will be extended is generally unfllwsllum'd. on. John M. Thurston lectures on Tuesday u\'oninl; upon the life and ser- yices of General Grant, the lecture being held under the auspices of Farragut Post, G. A. R. A large number of tickets for the lecture have been sold. Later developements disclose the fact that Griflith, whois in jail awai ni Y hearing for forgery, did not confine his fine work to forging Mr. Potvin's name 10 the enecks, but s’ho forged the name of John Fraas to some of the checks, upon which he raised money.

His bond that had been doclared forfeited had not heen collected and swhen the body of James had been produced in court the bondemen were released. Since the opening ot the May term of the district court the eriminal docket has been nearly doubled, and some seventy cases of this character are now enrolled. To-day eriminal matters will be taken up before J Chapman and a jury and they will fully oceupy toe present week. Howe's London circus arrives to-day, and will pitch ite tent for a week's stay in Lineoln. The tenting ground is at O and Fifteenth streets. The prospects for police eourt this morning are confined to one inebriate, who was found paralyzed in_ the alley in the rear of Meyers, Nissley & Co. He was hard at work yesterday sobering up in the cooler.

There were short hand writers present, and when they wrote their notes out that afternoon they were sent to Garfield to be revised.

This is what Boucicuwlt wrote about himself not many years ‘ago: ‘I have earned very large sums of money, but have reserved very little. My family have had it, and there are so many calls on one’s sympathy. Besides, I do hope I shall die without more than enough ta bury me decently. It seems to me much betfer to give one's property to one’s heirs while you are alive and can see the enjoyment it produces. Why heap it up to be wrangled for after you are gone?

AT TS M JINMY HOPE, BOSS BURGLAR. Head Spirit of the Great Manhattan Bank Burglary, BROUGHT BACK TO NEW YORK. A Haul of a Million—A Sketch of His Career—One of the Greatest Burglars of the Age. James Hope,who has just been brought back to New York from San Francisco, to be tried for the great Manhattan bank robbery, is the last one of the gang that has not been tried, To summarize briefly the career of this thicf, who for years has been dreaded as none other 1n all cities throughout the country where there was a sate worth the “‘cracking,” both as ards skill, bold- ness and substantial success, Ho was a machinist in P hiladeiphia up to the age of thirty, when he blossomed into a bank burglar, bringing his great skill at his trade to bear on his new profession with results that were profitable from the start. No wonder! He graduated on the paymaster’s safe i the Quaker City navy yard and cleaned it out. The same fall he got nabbed in the northern part of New York for cracking a bank at the town of Perry. He spent two years mak- ing himself fanmliar with the Auburn jeil, and then one night left ITHOUT BIDING THE JAILER GOOD-BYE. ext he was heard of in Wilmington, Delaware, where he was captured with his whole gang,while gagzing the cashier of the First National bank preparatory to blowing up th His life from that time on to 1878 identified with the financial interests of the country in more than one eastern state i nner not appreciated by bank t Those were the primitive days when th deft and gentlemanly cashier had not relieyed the clumsy burglar of his k and monopolized the bank-wreckig business. His return to New York was signalized by the most sensational robbery that ever took place in this or any other cluumry. Every one knows the story of the CRACKING OF THE MANHATTAN BANK on that October Sunday, cight years ago, when the burglars, gided by one watch- man and having the other securely bound and gagged, curried away nearly three million dollars’ worth of bonds and se- curities that never did them any good. Less than twenty thousand dollars was all they got for three years' scheming and plotting that had been con- founded time and time again by the finger of fate. Two differcnt gangs had been formed to rob the bank and had been successively broken up by the arrest of one or more members for other his heels, all this time, elf-appointed of the crimes. With the police at though on a wrong scent old man Hope stuck to his s task. He was a regular patron bank and knew every inch, e in the big safe, He even gain to it one might and, single-handed, tried the lock, He is to-day the one man in the world, so the police think,who knows where the stolen bonds are. They were mostly government papers, and Uncle Sam replaced them with others, Never- theless the being about of A _COUPLE OF MILLION DOLLARS’ WORTIT of genuine, uncanceled yet fraudulent treasury bonds, with the chances of their turning up suddenly,no one knows wh is not nice, and their surrender 1l doubtless count for a couple of years on old man Hope's sentence when he comes to answer for his share in that job. 1t is believed by some that they are some- where up the Hudson, buried in the river bank, where “mf may lie till doomsday without the lonely traveler dreaming of the hidden wealth under s feet. JIMMY HOPE WHO PLANNED and directed the famous zlary, who hid the plunger and whose intluence was felt even within the halls of congress when the proposition to replace the stolen bonds was being debated, is the Iast of that historic ganz to come “home.” Out of the Manhattan bank robbery grew Inspector Byrnes and New York’s present detective system, that has made the business unprofitable to eastern cracksmen, The burglary was in Captain Byrnes' precinet, and he made it the business of his life to run the gmux1 down. Shevlin, the dishonest watchman, turned state’s evidence and disappeared after the trials. Nugent, the burglar-policeman, and Banjo Pete are doing ten years in a Jersey prison; Ed- die Goodie slipped up on a_butcher cart robbery with a stake of $10,000, and is doing twenty years; “Bill” Kelly 1s just out of prison, and Johnny Hope, the old man’s son, is still vainly proclaiming his innocense in Sing Sing prison under a twenty years' sentence, Abe Coakley keeps a saloon in New York. Father and son will atone for the monumental crime together behind prison walls to the end of the century. Neither would ever have been taken for a thief by a stranger. The writer re- members the protest with which a well- meaning Methodist dominie, who had been led to young Johnny's cell in the Mercer street police station, emerged to denounce the “ontiage” of keeping the young gentleman locked up on a churge 80 ABSURD AS THAT OF BURGLARY, He had so successfully soft-soaped the domipie in fifteen minutes’ converaation thay 2o would haye been ready to put him in a8 trenstfor of hil an\hy school hiad he been able to persiade the police tolet him out, and probably swhnny Hope would have given as good an aé- count of himself in that position as some Sunday school oflicers. Neither he nor his father ever descended to mean thisv- ing. They would take all the risk of a bank burglary, but the till in the grocery would be safe from them. Some of the old esprit de corps that has become a tradition in our day with the much- vaunted honor among thieves kept them ulways on the upper levels of the profes- sion, It was partly owing to the old man’s skill. ‘“Safe blowing” was not among his tricks, While the common burglar would be fooling with powder and fuse and waking up the neighbor- hood, he tore the strongest safe to pieces by mechanical contrivance and on scien- titie principles. No barrier could resist, no combination batte him, HIS €00 WAS AS EXTRAORDINARY as his s Hunted by the police after the Manhattan }ub. and kaowing that a hundred human ferrets were on his trail, the machinist turned watchmaker, so it is said, and disguised as an innocent me- chanic repairing watches in a Harlem shop that counted among its customers more than one policeman who went around with a description of the fugitive burglar revolying in his brain early and late. It was not until the excitement over the big burglary had simmered down and given place for a tresh sensation in the Stewart grave robbery that Old Man Hope traveled west hike any other citizen who doesn’t care two straws for the po- lice. On the way he stopped to SEE HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER in Philadelphia, where his son Johnny was also at that time, and the reunited family spent & night of bitter recrimina- tion together. The rest of the famly, all excog( Johnny, had remained honest, and bitterly upbraided the father for the disgrace he had brought upon them, Yet no Judas was found amoag them to be- tray him. Father and son went out free at daybreak, the latter to fall into the hands of the police after a hand-to-hand fight with his re—the father to find his 'li‘r:o the Pacitic coast aud into jail in San Franeisco for trying to rob Sauf & Co.'s bank of £600,000. Neither ever saw their Philadelpmia home again. WITH THE LOER HOPE DIES OUT the generation of thieves that for the past twenty years made a large part of this continent unsafe And even tried their hand in Europe on more than one oc sion. ‘Those who did not die in their boots are in jail on long term contracts. bolintars el HIS OPINION OF BOOMS.

In the installment of the “‘Lincoln His- tory,” publisned in the June Century, an account is given of the famous Dred Scott decision, with quotations from Lin- coln’s and Douglas’ opinions on that ae- cision. Lincoln incidentally referred to the Declaration of Independence in the following striking language: *I think the authors of that notable instrument intended to include all men; but they did not intend to declare all men equal in all respects. They did not mean to say all were equal in color, size, intellect, moral development or social capacity. They defined with tolerable distinctness in what respeets they did consider all men creat equal—equal with ‘certain inalienable rights, among which are lfe, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” This they said,and this they meant. They did not mean to assert the obvious untruth that all were then actually enjoying that equality, nor yet that they were about to confer it im- ‘The body is more susceptible to benefit from Hood's Sarsaparilla now than atany other season.

On a per- fectly fair competition tne price in Tor- onto should e reduced to the same fig- ure. It appears also that in New York companies have been swindling the pub- lic by supplying them with 600 or 700 candle power lights instead of 2,000 can- dle power, as contracted for. Other com- panies than those of New York are guilty of this fraud. ———e What to see and how to see it. Go to Boston.
