PICKED UP ABOUT THE CITY Omaha Made an Immediate Port of Entry. THE GREAT QUESTION OF WAGES. The Bricklayers' Position—The Plumb- ers Take a Stand—Doings in the Courts—Death of Mrs. Licu- tenant Bartlett. An Immediate Port. Two vears ago Senator Manderson en- deavored to have Omaha made what is known in the commercial world as an immediate transportatioh customs port. This is a privi- lege which New York, Chicago, and other large cities now enjoy. He secured the pass- age of a bill to this effect, but it was illed by the veto of the president. The present session he again brought the matter up, and yesterday was notified by the treasury department that Omaha had been created a-port of the kind mentioned above. This action justified the senator in the belief that the president had no jurisdic- tion in the matter in which he had issued his veto. The result of the action of the treasury de- partment will enable all the goods imported 10 this country by Omaha merchants to come 10 this city immediately, without breaking of bulk or delay of four o ‘five weeks or more, such as has been the case heretofore. Be- sides, it will prevent the breaking and loss of goods which has frequently been sustained. The goods will be inspected here upon arrival. This will require a corps of inspectors, possibly four or five in number. It will also enable goods to be kept in bond until they are required, thus doing away with the necessity of paying the duty on all at the same time, and enabling mer- chants to pay it only when they take their goods out of bond. One firm here has paid on an average £20,000 for custom duties and this year ex- pects to pay at least $30,000, while importing firms here have run the grand amount up much higher. Mr. Frost Was Misquoted. The Bek published an interview with Mr. Lee Frost yesterday, the subject of which ‘was the demands of the brickla; wages for the coming season. Mr. Frost was not only misunderstood and misquoted, but a typographicat error was added, making the apparent authority of a stateme wholly wrong. It was said that Mr. Frost stated that the bricklayers only - wanted $£.00 per day of eight hours. It should have been stated that they wanted $4.50 for eight hours’ work, as per their written demands. The error wus a most unfortunate one inasmuch as it does Mr. Frost a great injustice, In conversation with a boss brick-mason this morning it was learned tnat if Mr, Frost had made any such statement he would be cen- sured by his fellow craftsmen. The gentle- man further stated that he was sure that Mr. Frost had been misquoted, as he was always & prominent und conscientious worker for the union. 1t is hoped that this correction will settle all differences. On next Wednesday afternoon there will be a meeting of the Brick Contractors’ asso- ciation at 3 p. m. In the evening there will be a meeting of the Brick ufacturers’ as- sociation. Both of these meetings will take place in room 430, Paxton buildiug, when it is expected Mr. Armstrong's report will be read and possibly an ultimgtum be reached as re gards the stand that will-be taken by the unions. THE PLUMBERS' OBJECT, The master plumbers have decided to here- after accept no contracts, in large jobs, ex- cept from the actual owners of the buildings in which the w is to be done. The reason assigned for this move is that they have here tofore been compelied to accept contracts _ from carpenters and bricklayers who have f)ven bids upon an entire structure. Some- imes these bids, especially for plumbing when made by ifexperiencad people, have ,been inadequate for the work, and as 8 consequence the plumber aecopting the contract: has frequently done 80 at his cost. The stand now taken by the plumbers, that of dealing only With the owhers of the Job, it is thought will remedy this defect, A boss painter told a BEk reporter yester- day that the members of his craft were now discussing the same move, and would Pprobably arrive at the same conclusion that the boss plumbers had, as mentioned above. BENCH AND BAR. The United States Court. A bill for foreclosure of a mort filed _yesterday by Harry A. Pierce and George A. Davis, of New York City, vs. Wil- liam Ferguson and Mary Ferguson, of Dodge county, this stute. The amount in contro- versy is in the neighborhood of £2,800, includ- ing interest and costs, and is in six promis sory notes issued by the defendants, e was District Court. STILL ON TKIAL.! The trial of Arnold et al is still on trial before judge Doane. Plaintifts claim dam- ages on account of grading. O OUST CRAWFORD. County Attorney Simeral, in behalf of the state, filed a petition yesterday asking that Frank Crawford be ousted from his po- sition as justice of the peace. The petiti sets forth that at the last clection C. D. Thomas was electod to succeed Crawford, but failed to qualify. The county commis- sioners then appointed Christian Nissen to A1l the vacancy. Crawford disregarded the notice of Nissen's Bp) tment and refuse to give'up his office, Nissen demunded um retir ford, who again refused. Plaintiff prays that the court will issue an order to oust Crawford from the office he il- legally homm TED OF LARCE The trial of Charics Johnson. chiarged with burglary,was completed yesterday afternoon.

F. Lehinann appeared before Judge Wakeley yestorday and petitioned that the name of the Deutsche- Ischaft be County Court. ALLEGED CROO! Spafford L. Andrews brought suit yesterday morning against George M. Cooper, the real estate broker. Plaintiff alleges that in No- vember 1887, for a certain consideration paid to dofvmhm, the latter undertook to secure L ‘3' for plaintift on Eigh h street in lock 12 of Kountze and Ruth's addition, and represented to plaintiff that he could secure for him the south half of lot 9, and the north half of lot 12-in said block. To induce plain- tiffto purchase said property, pretended to show him the same, but instead, with intent “to” clieat and defraud plaintift, pointed out other property than the one described above, which was worth at _least 00 more] than the one plaintiff was looking at. Plaintift charges that defendant knowmngly and willtully pomted out the wrong property in order to induce plaintift 1o purchase the property originally described, Plaintiff, relying upon representutions of defendent, closed the deal and did not dis. cover that he had been cheated until some time later. Plaintiff asks judgment in the sum of §100, together with interest and costs of suit.

Ferguson Bound Over to the District Court Without Bail. At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon the pre- liminary examination of William Ferguson, the slayer of Ole Olson, was held before Judge Berka. Tne court room was crowded with spectators, while hundreds stood on the sidewalk outside or swarmed about the win- dows to catch a peep at tho prisoner. Those unable to .get in contented themselves with discussing the case outside. When Fergu- ou was brought into the court room he ooked cool and remarkably self-possessed for one of his years, and _at first showed great indifferenc However, he followed very carefully the testimony of the witnesses. The persons who testified were James Kennedy, Ed. Hoft- man, Joe Holmes, Alf Smith, James Adams, Samuel Montgomery and Charles Heller, The state was_represented by torney Simeral, and the defense by Attorney Alexander Green assisted by Attorney Lee stelle. After hearing the evidence the judge held Ferguson for murder in the first degree, and the prisoner was immediately put in irons and hurrigd to the county jail. The witnesses were all put under $400 bonds cach to appear before the district court. Adams, Montgom- ery and Heller gave bonds and were imme- diately released. The remaining witnesses were remanded back into custody and aiso taken to the county juil He Sold Ferguson Liquor. In the preliminary examination of Fergu- son, the murderer of Ole Oleson, yesterday, James Adams, one of the proprictors of the saloon in which Oleson was killed, testified ‘that he sold three drinks of whisky and one of blackberry brandy to Ferguson.

On arraipnment he plead guilty and was fined §25 and costs. e OIL BORERS, Omaha & Platte Valley Oil Compan'y Election. v There was an_important meeting of the stockholders of the Omuha & Platte Valley Oil company at the office of Murphy & Lovett.

Some time since Superintendent Bruner sentout to all county feachers (outside of this city)-a circtilar letter’ asking that,_they, would take up collectiom in their schools for the benefit of the Nebraska heroines. date Mr. Bruner has received but seven re- spouses to his appeal and the total amount sent in for the great object is but £46,04. Five of these responses came from country dis- tricts, one from the primary teacher at Fior- ence and ome from the _Third ward school 1 South Omaha. There are six schools in South Omaha. Mr. Brunner stated that during the past three days he had visited many of the county schools, and in every district” the p pils and teachers were enthusiastic in ra ing sums of money for the unfortunate Misses Royce and Woebbecke. The super- intendent estimates that if the balance of the schools contribute as liberally as the seven above mentioned, that the amount raised willbe betiween §800 and §300.
