MIDDLEBEQOK, A GREAT c(J()l{Elt. Invention of a California Man Now in Town, Mr. Francis Jackson, of Oakland, Cal., was in the city yesterday on business. He is an inventor of a number of usetul articles and had with him a model of a stove, on which he has secured a patent, which is w gem. This stove has numer- oints differing from the ordinary which recommend it to the pup- first advantuge h it has is wncous flue cleaner, whereby nd dirt can be removed without any trouble or flying dirt, which is now one of the bunes of the Kitchen, The oven 1s also arranged on a_plan which is rreat improvement. On the bottom and sides 1t s with corru- gated iron, which gives a strong, tbin, and at the same time greater heating surface than in the ordinary stove, The grooves on the side can also be utilize as supports for any number of shelves which the cook may nced. The munner of heating the oven is also changed, In- stead of passing over the stove and then under the oven, the heat is drawn directly under the oven by means of « damper, thus preventing the cook from being roasted before the contents of the oven can be baked. Another feature is the arrangement of the fire grate, whereby the lire can be used to the best adv: By means of asimple ar- rangement the grate can be raised or lowered, or — one-half of the fire dumped and the other half remuain intact. The stove is also equipped with o smoke consumer and many other improvements which can be seen by a cursory glance at the model. Mr. Jackson came to Omaha intending to dispose of the patent, but arriving here concluded that it conld be handlec better by the formation of a stock com pany. Itis without doubt one of the bestinventions in the stove line that has yet been presented to the public and Omana capital looking for investment would do well to investigate the matter. Theresis no doubt that in a year from 200 to 300 hands could be employed in its manufacture and it would {m a good thing for Omaha.

COMPLICATIONS. An English Syndicate’s Representa- tive to Straighten Matters. oNEw Yonk, Sept, 6,.—[Special to the BEE.] —The Hon. Seeton Qarr, ot London, a mem- ber of parliament, arrived from England a few days azo and has started for Cheyenne, upon matters pertaining tothe Hereford Land and Cattle company. Thisis the company formed last year at the instanceof A, H.Swan for $1,500,000 stock, and debenture bonds for 8750,000 and was to absorb the Wyoming Hereford Land and Cattle company and several other landed properties adjoining. But on account of not receiving support at Cheyenne, the new company became somewhat involved in a muddle. It is understood that Mr. Carr comes with full power of attorney to arrange all matters, to either turn back the title to the lands, or to still carry out the sale. The stock was all issued, $750,000 was received by the several owners, 750,000 was held in tlie west by the company to secure the debenture, some por- tion ot tho bonds ware sold but" the money was held in trust until the patents to the lands were secured to the new company a dissatistied condition in Wyoming, dis ited the lack of confidence in Londos the brakes were put on by the honol members who constituted the London com- pany. Mr. Carr, who is president ot the new company, comes to adjust and close the matter in some satisfactory way. ‘The sus- pension, delay and misunderstanding about his negotiation were the final causes of Mr, Swan’s failure, aud to carry itout as first contemplated they will assist in the interest of their creditors. z in Trouble.

CuIcAGo, Sept. 6.—|Special Telegram to the BEk.|—The Wabash railway company threw a bombshell ihto western passenger circles yesterday by announcing a rate of $6 between Chicago and Kansas City, a cut of £6.50, the regular established rate being $12.50, This cuts the St. Louis passenger rate from $7.50 to &6, and will, if persisted in, completely demoralize all western and southwestern passenger traftic. The cut was brought about by trouble over vest excursion ~ rates. All of the western lines agreed to adopt a certain form of tickets tor these special ex- cursions, but the Chicago & Alton, as it claims, by a mistake vrinted its tickets in the old form in use last year. As a conse- quence, the scalpers got hold of a lot of the Alton tickets, and used thom to cut the regu- lar rate.
