THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: AN ANTI-DELUVIAN = GAME. How an Ex-Scout Victimized a Num- ber of Lincolnites and Omahans. BUSINESS MEN IN TROUBLE. A Commission Man Fails and Leaves the City—Wholesale Liquor House Closed—A Druggist Embare rassed—City News. The Bogus Land Game. Louis PPasoo, cosmopolitan, and J. L. Keith, of Lincoln, were arrested in that ity Thurs- day on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses, through the almost antedilu- vian bogus Jand racket. Both men in the custody of Deputy United States Marshal Hastings were brought to this city yesterday morning and lodged in jail. They will appear before the grand jury of the United States district court this afternoon. Pusoo, the leading genius in the swindle, is a large, cor- pulent, muscular man, with long black hair worn after the fashion of the plainsman and Rulde of twenty years_ ago, buckskin shirt, corduroy breeches and broad sombrero, In fact Pasoo claims to_have seen considerable service as & scout and was for the side partner of Omohundro, or Jduck. - But enough of his past hist veeks ago he appeared in the acquaintance of Jerr, He uc he latter wore, and impressing him with the idea that he,too, had gone through the war, the two enjoyed themselyes for some thne s only old sold can, exchanging theirexpericnces of the the march and the camp. Finally Pasoo i formed Sunday that he was @ claim locater, and knew of soin vdcsirable landthatcould be pre-cmpted within_ the confines of Gage and Seward counties, These valuable tracts had been condemned by the r s, but by some technical error in the condemnation procecdings, had reverted to the government. He claimed to “stand in” solid with the ernmental authoritics who had imme supervision over these tracts, and pictured in glowing terms what a golden op- portunity was thus afforded for some one to invest and speculate with alimited amount of capital. After u long and confidential talk over the matter Sawdey was finally i 10 look up a couple of ambitious fr some ready cush and_take up three home- steads, Tasoo tellin Suwdey he ought to be slick enough to make the two friends he took into the scheme with him pay for his. That evening Thomas Carahan and A J.

Sawdey, Carahan and Hyatt defrayed all the expenses of the trip, the luwyers' fee, und Pasoo 100 beside 1 should be deducted from the sceuring the transfer papers.

This disclosure filled the at- mosphere with the f e of n good sized rat, and Sawdoy and his friends hurried off to the Capitol hotel to see Pasoo and_keep him in sight until they were satisficd of the valid- ity of their claims, Pasoo was as nonchalant a8 an oyster, and neve 1by word or decd that he suspicioned that Sawdey and his friends suspected him of any smooth work. They asked him to accompany them to the land department, but he said” that was u: less as Receiver Davis was out of the ef and would not return until this evening and it would be impossible to establish the record in this particular matter until he was pres Ho then v them to accompany himn eward and inspect the land,and wishing to v him as lo possible they consente Hyatt, however, in the meantime, w given the' tip by Sandey, who told him to round to the land department, and seo Davis was there, or away as Pasoo iid he was.

D. 0. Freeman Flies the City—Liquor and Drug Failures The business career of D, O. Freeman,com- mission man, 413 South Eleventh street, has come to a close, by his sudden flight from the city. He leaves obligations of various amounts, some of which will prabably be set- tled, while for a settlement of the others, the creditors will be compelled to rustle, He commenced on & capitul of about §1,300, then borrowed from his mother, later from the Nebraska Na tional bank, which at one time_allowed him 0 overdraw to the extent of betwe and $500. At the time of his disapp by way of satisfying this oblig assigned to the bank his accounts to lected, which it is thought will se bank though some doubt is entertaine s whether it enables the consigno be paid. Freeman has secured his motl by transferriug to her, a couple of horses, a wagon and a carriage which he had in his business. The latter, it scoms, have now been attached, and the "affairs are ina decidedly mixed condition. Leavitt Burn- ham has taken possession of the store, and is stuck for several -months' rent. Among the other creditors whose amounts run from $40 0§00 are A. R. Bremer & Co. of Chicao, v & Co., B. Salmon, of this city; S, Mershon of Glenwood, and a number of others. Freeman lived with his mother ncar Colfax and Howard . streets, though his whereabouts are at present unknown.

McArdle, one of his boudsmen, and $3,50 in favor of Thomas Culligan, his father-in-law. At the begin- ning of the month his assets, including his stock, Look accounts, ete., amounted to 25,000, His liabilities are only half this, but bad debts and an account of nearly #5000 with P. H. Maguire has temporarily em. barrassed him, Conuolly says that for this $3,000 account against Maguire he was forced 1o take cithcr §6,000 mortgage or nothing, He accepted ' the mortgage, but it Was broken by Maguire's creditors on the ground that it was fraudulent. This uvexpected loss crippled hiin, but he hopes to wake some arvangeuent whereby he can resume business again soou DRUG STORE CLOSED. J. H. Phelps did a drug business at No 2312 Cuming street, and from all uccounts trade has been at the best with him. Thurs diry a chattel mortgage for §05 was given by him, but it was not filed with the cous clerk on that day.

Rust vs. the Union Pacific railway company, $5,000 dam- ages, was filed with the clerk of the United States court yesterday Rust was an em- ploye of said company, and in July was as- sisting in the loading of a car with steel rails. He was on the inside of the car, and through the recklessness and carclessness of the workmen on the outside, one of these heavy rails was thrown upon his ankle and foot, crushing and mangling it, and crippling and disabling him for life, He brings suit for §,000 in the district court, and has it transferred to the United States court. S. D. Lyster, of Holdrege, is before the grand jury of the United States ~court charged with passing counterfeit bills. The bogus moncy was in one and five dollar notes which were clever imitations of silver certificates. The spurious nature of the bills was well hidden by a coat of grease and dirt. DISTRICT, A petition was filed in the district court yesterday afternoon by Brown, Parkhurst & of South Omaha, instituting proceedings against the Union Stockyards bank. The pluintiffs allege that the defendant requested them to purchase from $20,000 to £30,000 worth of what is knwn by stockmen as ‘cattle ? that is, commercial paper given by 3 of cattle in payment therefor, and which is secured by chattel mortgage upon growing crops of the farmer who purchases the stock for feeding. This contract was cn- tered into by plaintift and defendant, and the former drew thereon large sums of ' money, and defendant honored two drafts, one of 00 and another of £1,900. This paper was procured only for the use of defendant. The bank now refuses toaccept the balance of the cattle paper, amounting to $14,509.86, alleging as the reason that money is tight. Plaintifts state that by the defendant's refusal to live up to the contract their credit will be injured. 1t is further stated that defendant is about to bring suit, and plaintiffs want them enjoined from o doing during the pendency of their suit to force defendant to take the balance of the paper. Amanda Marganta Keesil filed a_petition for di sterday against her busband, Heindr . The plaintiff states that they were married near Hamburg, Germany, December 10, 1877, and two years later her her husband toyed too frequently with the cup that cheers and degenerated into a pe fect sot.
