WasniNaToN, July 21.—|Special Tele- gram to the BEE.|—Some of the New York newspapers seem to fear that the Western National bank of that city will be prevented from issuing bullion certificates in exchange for sllver deposited, owinz to the clause in the law which prohibits the issue by any pri- wvate parties of any paper having even a re- mote resemblance to United States evi dences of debt. 1t is asserted that the atten- tion of the authorities here has been called to this alleged violation of the law. The BrE correspondent learns that the attention of the treasury officials hag not been directed to the matter at all cept through news- aper accounts of the plans at the ank as the certificates are not to be issned as currency, but solely as certificates of de- posit of certain amounts of silver, and as they will be larger and dissimilar in every respect to the treasury silver certificates there 18 no reason to think that the govern- ment will Interfere with the plans of the bank in any particular. Gentlemen in- terested In financial subjects here who have given this subject any attention are of the opinfon that the move on the part of Mr. Jordan’s bank will prove profitable alike to the depositor and the bank. The certificates being protected by silver bullion instead of “coln Intrinsic United ways be worth their face in ounces ot silve Besides the bullion will give the bank hol ing it an immense reserve capital upon which to draw in an emergency, and which will represent only 80 many certificates, but of course subject to_cal ‘This new departure of the Western Natlonal bank will doubtless lead others to adopt the plan of issuing cer- tificates upon deposit of silver bullion. It the plan proves successful it is more than likely that some such policy as that outlined in the Warner bill, or the Jordan substitute introduced in the last congress will be adopted as a solution of the silver question. Dr. Bacon's Accounts. WasmiNGTON, July 21.—[Speclal Tele- gram to the Bxg.] —Since the publication of the charge of shortage in the accounts of the late Dr. Levi Bacon, as financial clerk of the patent office, the friends of that gentleman have been somewbat indignant over the pub- licity given the results of what they claim was a hurried and cursory examination of the affairs of the office, covering only a period of a few days, and not includinga thorough examination of the books. Mr. Schuyler Duryea, late chief clerk of the pat- ent office, who was one of the commit- tee to examine Into and report upon Dr. Bacon’s accounts, was asked to-day as to the facts concernlng the published reports, Mr. Duryea said: *The ublished reports of Dr. Bacon’s accounts at he patent office have been misteading. The committee appointed by the secretary of the interior made an inventory of the contents of the safe used by Mr. Bacon, but did not examine his books. This examination should have baen made before announcing the re- port_of the inventory and until the footing of the journal ke&l by Dr. Bacon show- ing the daily recelpts of fees all verified and the total amount of money received by him during his eleven and one-half years of service, about $11,000,000, Is definitely deter- mined ~and red with h aggregate fmpossible to sa) accounts stood at the iudzmonus. and I am not alone 1n this, such nformation will reveal that Mr. Bacon was not In arrears. The practice of making ad- vances to employes of the office had existed during his entire term, and it was with the knowledge of his superiors. The whole amount of cash reported short was $25,000. Of this amount 817,000 Is sald to beaccounted for by the due bills and other papers found in his office, and the whole amount, it is said, has been paid by persons owing the re- maining $11,000.” Mr. Duryea says that it is more than prob- able that this discrepancy is an inconsider- able sum compared with tha §11,000,000 Dr. Bacon and will be shown 8 are revised to be due to cleri- cal errors, and that errors to such an amount in a series of accounts covering 36,000 pages which have not been examined for eight ’;fi"‘ would not be unexpected and remark- e, Not Entitled To Indemnity. ‘WASHINGTON, July 21.—The commissioner general of the land office has completed the adjustment of a grant to the state of Kansas for the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway company, under the act of congress of March 8, 1563, and July 26, 1836. The commissioner finds that the company is not entitled to in- demnity for losses within its granted limits by reason of prior grants and reservations to the United States by competent authority fer the purpose of alding in any object of in- ternal improvement or other purpose what- ever. On this basis the commissioner finds that an excess of 203,431 acres over the amount legally due has beep certified and patented for the benefit of the road. The company clalms indemnity for all losses within its granted limits, no matter how oc- casioned, and should this claim be allowed the company would still be entitied to 504.043 acres. The commissioner recommends that suit be instituted by the government to re- cover the excess as found by them. Should this decision be sustained it will eontrol the adjustment of all grants of the like character. Pensions Granted. ‘WASHINGTON, July 21.—(Special Telegram to the Ber.

Honoxkus, N. J. July 81.—At 7:45 o'clock this morning a horrible accident occurred on the Erle railroad at a point about a third of & mile above Hohokus, resulting 1n the killing of eleven men and seriously Injuring five others. A gang of forty-two Italian laborers were at work ballasting the tracks when they noticed & milk train coming up the road from Hohokus, They immediately stepped over on the down track, but in their hurry failed to notice the Chicago express bearing down upon them. Before anyone knew exactly what was happening, the express had plunged into their midst, knocking the un- fortunates right and left, killing ten of their number outright and wounding six others, one so badly that he died before he reached Paterson, whither the wounded were carried as soon as accommodation could be secured to convey them. The express was unable to come to a stop until it reached Holokus sta- tion, where it was found that the cowcatcher and step of the engine were broken, but no other damage was done. Investiga- tion shows that the train hands were entirely blameless. Most of the unfortunates were hurled down the embankment of the down track, while some were lying around between the rails horribly mutilated. ~ Some censure the foreman and his assistant for not watch- ing out and notifyine the laborers, but they claim that the suddeness of the atrival of the train put all precautions at naugnt, as there was no time to warn the men eid a voico could not have been heard above the noise created by the milk train. Moreover, the Chicago express was not on time. Lhe men were probably as much to blame as anybody. They are stupid at times and have to be nulled out of the way of approaching trains. All the dead men were married. prwibied Aot Buried in Quicksand. BrNKLEMAN, Neb, July 2L—[Special Telegram to the BEr.|—Perry Eagg, aged eight years, was drowned in Bruntwood creek, near Benkleman, to-day. It was a peculiarly distressing accident.

Tell Fred Brown’s TRIED TO JQB TRHE RACE. Attempt of & m(s':..;Im.m to Fixthe Bicydle Event. There is conefdevatle Indignation among the lovers agd patrons of sport over an attempt to’*'job’’ the Whittaker- Ashinger bicycle riico on the part of the lower element and hangers-on of sport. Bicycling has become 'very popular in Omaha, and here a} el§ewhere is patron- fzed and engaged:in by a good class. The events have bo#h fn the hands of re- spectable men and -have been well pat- ronized. The faot that they have been good drawing oards has probably been the secret of the attemapt by the hippo- dromers to break into a branch of sport and degenerate it as they have other events with which they have been con- nceted, The —merits of Ashinger and Whittaker have been variously discussed and led Mr. H. A. Penrose, of the firm of Penrose & Hardin, to post a forfeit of $25 with a challenge in the Chrouiclefor a bicycle race with Whil taker. Mr. Penrose stood ready to back Ashinger and a match was arranged for 200 a side. The race is to come off on uly 24, Mr, Penrose is a_responsible gentleman, a great lover of legitimate sport, 18 well and favorably known, and backs his opinions with his money. At a meeting of the gun club recently at the park, Mr. Penrose noticed Pat Fallon, the notorious keeper of aroad house and a hanger on of sport, talking earnestly to Ashinger in one of the sheds on the grounds. As afte s developed he was trying to fix the race. Mr. Penrose stepped up and called Ashinger aside. Fallon insisted on talking to the bicyel- ist and Mr. Penrose finally told him that as long as Ashinger was under his charge he could not permit him to be too intimate with a man of the Fallon type. Nothing deyeloped until a day or 80 ago, when Mr. Penrose stepped into s store and found Fallon again earn- estly talking and gesticulating to Ash- inger. Penrose ordered Fallon out. The latter grew demonstrative and indulged in a great deal of ‘,mrxmm-. Mr. Pen- rose stepped behind the counter, pi 1 up a revolver, and again told the hin- odromer that he understood fully what he (Fallon) was scheming for, and to go forthwith. The fellow skipped wway. Fallon first told Ashinger thatif he would ride behind Whittaker that he would give the bicyclist $250. The hip- podromer said that a great deal of money _ could be won in that way and that he would give Ashinger 10 per cent of the winnings if the rider would assent toit. Later Fallo Ashinger that he had Whittake! and that thousands could be won inger would assent to the deal which he proposed. This Ashinger related to enrose. The mistake Ashinger made was in listening to the unfolding ot the scheme. He should have resented the proposition in no uncertain terms. ' Fallon, however, bears a cheap reputition asa pugilist, obtamed by knockipig out defonseless women and inoffensive, men at his road house. 1f bicyeling 18 to be taken up by the class of sports of which Fallon 1s a tylnlcuthe chances arelit will be quickly killed. FRANKO'S VERACITY, It 1s Questioned By the Leader of the Second Infantry Band. ForT OMaHA, Neb., July 21, 18; To the Editor of the Bik:, Having noticed in the BEEof the 3lst inst. an article headed ‘‘Men of war, or ought military bands compete with civil bands?® I wish to say that as far ‘as Mr. Franko de- nying what 1 said on,the 10th inst., I will again say Mr. Franko did say that if this band took the engagement in the Casino garden 1t would be taking the bread and butter out of his (Franko's) mouth. He also said he did not care a continental d—n what the consequences were, he would get the best of those fellows, (meaning Messrs. Joe and Adolph, pro- prictors of the Casino garden); and also, if he had money enough he would pay my men what they would lose if they would not play for Messrs. Joe and Adolph. ~ Mr. Franko said further that he had a pont to gain, and that he never failed in aining his point, and that he would get fi:e best of those men yet. Mr. Fran cannot deny the above; if he does I can prove by six or eight men of my band who were sitting in frontof their quarters at the time Mr. Franko said this. In regard to military bands competing with civie bands, I would lLike to ask Mr. Franko if he remembers where the Sec- ond Infantry band ever did compete with any of the local bands of the city of Omaha? We have always charged a great deal more for our services than any of the bands in the city, and never put in any bids for any engagement; con- sequently all the engagements the Sec- ond Infantry band ever had were given them through their merits, and I'have every reason to believe that the best of feeling exists between the musicians of the city and the members of the Second Intantry band both, individually and col- lectively.

Last evening Benjamin Pinkham was arrested and locked up in the city prison on the charge of forgery preferred against him by the firm of S. S. Floyd & Co., commission merchants. Pinkham has been employea for some time by Floyd & Co. to represent their interests at South Omaha, he having been formerly employed by Stewart & Co., and coming to them well recommended. The forger- 1es are all on certificates of deposit, some six in number, and which will aggregate upwards of $400. Pinkham has been’ pyetending to bo making deposits from Lime to time, but instead of turning any Money in, it has been discovered that lib himself has been signing Mr. Mulford, the teller's name, to the certificates of deposit, The forgeries reach back over a periog of twenty days, and were committed mainly during the absence of Mr. E R. Dayison, the man- ager for Floyd & Co. » There were sus- picions of crookednesg &hd Pinkham was mnehnrgsd. but on investigating the ex- tent of his crime, he tay placed under arrest, It has meanwhile transpired that .his relations with Stewart & Co were not distinguished for the ‘trictest integrity, and they too had dis d bim, County Qdrt, The case at present having a hearing before Judge McCulloohis that of Adoiph Klein vs. John Perry, John 8.

Last evening the planing mill proprie- tors, in conjunction with the machine men in their employ, held a meeting at Rosenberry's mill to discuss the nine- hour system. Mr. J. F. Coots acted a8 chairman, Upon Mr, Coots being a8l as to what he should do should the men ask for ten hours' pay for nine hours’ work, he replied that he | BEE; FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1887 run his mill to make money, and that when' he began to lose money in his business ~he would shut " up his shop. He was willing to pay the union scale of 83§ cents an hour. He believed that nine hours was enough for a day’s work, but at present all the mills were run to their fullest capacity and could barely meet their contracts, and an immediate adoption of the nine hour system would be a detriment to the proprietors. It was finally decided that each pro- prietor should consult personally with his employes 1 regard to the matter, and the various reports be heard and acted on at the next meeting to be held Monday evening. GUSTA LBOU, The Cause of the Brown Sensation is Arrested For Libel. Gustave Silbou, a reputed detective, who furnished the Herald with the ma- terials for the recent sensational article on Ikey Brown, was in hot water yester- day. He was first arrested on the four charges, viz.: impersonating an oflicer, insulting an officer, carrying concealed weapons, and being a pimp.

Prof. Nahan Franko, the lute musieal director at the Casino concerts, has co m menced suit against Adolph Jenatschke and John Gross, the proprietors of the Casino, for $2,000 damages. Prof. Franko claims that on July 5 these men agreed to pay him $300 a month for his services, and that to accept this position and give it his full time and attention he was forced to give up other business that was netting him 250 per month. That they also author: zed him to employ musical assistance to the amount of $700 per month. That he therefore has secured twelve musicians, and is now responsible for their salaries, aggregating $700. He claims that his present position at Metz’ garden is far from being a remunerative one, as he is dependent on the uncertain receipts at the gate, which at best are meager. He therefore asks for $2,000 as damages. +Lucky Mr. Jones. It is generally known that C. E.
