As there are about a half dozen of them to whom the soft impeachment might apply, it is somewhat difficult to deter- mine which one will first send around a sample of aristocratic dyspepsia in dis- guise, known as wedding cake. It is now authoritatively stated that Jacob Neumeyer has his arrangements completed for the erection of a three- story hotel. He has purchased of George Rudio the lotabutting upon his property on Broadway. This will give him a good frontage.

The bills of lading for the crossings reached here yester- day, and the crossings themselves will probnblf be received to-day. The motor line will now be completed as nreudily as ible. It is authorita- tively stated that two new motors are being built, and will be ready in abundant time for the opening of the season. Mr. Reed is quiet in his moves and does not indulge in as many vain boasts as those who had the enterprise in hands last season, but he seems to be accomplishing much more. ———— ‘Watch Tipton's rear;mw bulletin in another column. e Money to loan.

A hole was cut in the ice yesterday, through which to sink the caisson for the new bridge, in the center of the channel, The caisson will be sunk to the sand to-day, and is is expected to have it down to bed-rock in a few days. As fast as the caisson is sunk it will be filled, and it will take but a short time to complete it. The work is being car- ried on on the ice, and it is expected to have this big pier complete before the river is open. A SOME “CON" MEN STILL HERE A Susceptible Old Man Fleeced Out of His Gold. WORKING FOR A NEW HOTEL' The Progress of the Bridge—A Silver Wedding—The Grand Jury— The Aldermen Will Not Resign. The Fool and His Money. The latest and most simple exhibition of gray-haired verdancy is that of John F. Hunt, of Filmore, Mo., who, yester- duy morning, allowed himself to be “turned over” to the tune of $35 by a brace of slick rascals. It was the same old game with a little change by way of variety. The circumstances are as fol- lows: On Monday last Mr. Hunt boarded the train for the purpose of vis- iting his two sons, who are located at Olerich, Dak. When the train arrived at St. Jogeph a man got on the train and to0k a seat opposite to him across the aisle. In the conversation which en- -sued Hunt told his new acquaintance of his visit and its purpose, and in turn wae told that his new friend was a mer- ohant at Valentine, Neb.; his name was Morgan and he had a brother in the grocery business at the same town near which Hunt’s sons lived. By the inter- change of these little confides the old man’s faith was won entirely. When the couple arrived at the Union Pacific transfer depot the chicken was all ready to pluck. They alighted at the depot and Morgan casually remarked that his friend, the transfer agent, was outside. and excused himself while he went to transact some “transfer” busi- Morgan returned in a few min- ufés and when the Northwestern train pulled out the wolvesand the lamb were on board. The whole business was done before the train reached the local depot. The “‘agent” came in and was introduced to Hunt. Then their *‘busi- ness” was introduced. The agent must have money, ete. Morgan had none about him. but had plenty in a sixty- pound safe which was in the baggage car. The safe could not be got at, as it was piled in with other safes, until Mis- souri Valley was reached. Morgan would give a check as security and a handsome bonus for the use of a loan. Hunt had only %35, in gold. This was, at first, not near enough for the pur: pose, but the puir tinally concluded they could get along with this amount until the Valley was reached. The old man purted with his gold: the train stopped at the depot; Morgan got off to sce the gown, and the agent got off to attend to business. When they had got outside the train Officer Quinn, who was passing through the car, asked Hunt who the men were; what they had done to him, ete. At first Hunt would say nothing, but finally gave the whole thing ‘When the officer had got the rted out_to find the rogues. ad noticed them, and had taken was given. The officer hunted, but to no purpose— the birds had flown. Among those who saw the rogues was Baggageman Moxiey. He suspicioned something wrong and followed them up into the city and inte the yards of the Cnicago Lumber company, ‘where they stopped and divided the swag. In a short time Marshal Guanella and Chief Mullen were notified. A fair descrip- tion of the men was secured from Hunt and a search for the rascals was insti- tuted. Thus far no clue as to their whereabouts has been secured. Hunt describes them thus: Morgan as a medium sized, dark complected man. about thirty years of age. He had a dark chin beard and mustache and wore a dark suit and dark overcoat. The “‘agent,” he says, was a tall, light com- plected, smooth-faced man of about the age of his companion. He has prom- inent eyes and a quick, nervous way of winkin, Others who saw them de- scribe t differently, so the police have very little to work on in the mat- ter of means of identification. The de- pots and all outgoing trains are closely watched. Hunt remained in the city yesterday to assist in identification in case they are caught. This morning he will proceed on his journey a much wiser man for his experience with the “world and its ways.” Among those who heard the victim’s story was Polenz, the German who was bled for $100 a few months since on the bogus check racket. He says he thinks he knows the “express agent’ from the description, and has seen him around the transfer a great deal. In talking of the case he suid: “‘Since I vas bite, it make me hot to hear of dese sardine.” He 1s very anxious to secure the co-ope- ration of Colonel Dailey, and thinks he can corral the sharpers, The police will keep a sharp lookont for them, but are not much elated with the prospect for catching them, e Domestic patterns at 105 Main street. —~~——— Union Abstract Co., 236 Main st. — If you want to trade, sell, buy or rent, call on W.

There is a possibilit that Mr. Beno will connect this witl his presént stores, thus having the mammoth store of the west.

The business men of the city are hav- ing an opportunity to make a practical showing of their wants in the matler of a hotel. Two schemes are on foot and both are being pushed with much vigor. The board of trade committee are taking names and the amount each one is will- ing to giveto the enterprise. Theother plan is being presented by another com-~ mittee. This provides for the location of the building at either Seventh or Eighth streets on Broadway. The fol- lowing stipulations are incorporated in the su flvr‘\pnon. The hotel shall con- tain not less than one hundred and twenty-five rooms, shall cost not less than $75,000, and _shall be completed within one year. The terms of payment of stock are 25 per cent of stock when the foundation is completed, 25 per cent when the walls are up. 25 per cent when the building is enclosed and the remain- ing‘% per cent when the hotel is opened. 'he property in view is owned by sev- eral different parties. Josiah Danforth owns upon both corners at Eighth and Smith Saunders and Dr. Cleaver own the lots on the other corner. Danforth is already getting a fair revenue from his property, but is willing to devote it to this purpose if a small gratuity is fur- nished to cover i\widnn“nl loss. The other property is vacant. Both Saun- ders and Cleaver purpose erecting some kind of a building upon their property. If it is not secured for a hotel site, they will, during this season, erect store buildings. ‘i‘lnw that the matter has de- veloped o definite plan and purpose the immediate butlding of a first class hotel seems a svurety.

A report appeared in one of the city papers a short time since stating that Aldermen Wells and Metcalf were about to resign their seats in the city council on aecount of differences. They deny that this is the case, and say that their only reason for resigning is on account of other business. Alderman Metcalf states that he will be away on business during a part of the summer, and it was for that reason that he thought it might e better for some one else to be elected in his place, but he was afraid that the vacancy might be fllled by a party who would not be in favor of carrying on the ity improvinents as mapped out. It is probable that there will be no resigna- tions among the city fathers, and that those who hold ovi ill continue to de- vote a part of their time to the consider- ation of municipal affaivs, — 1f you desire to gret u new Hall type writer cheap, drop a postal card to H.

Tt finally leaked out that while Mr. Fuller was on his way home he had accidentally fallen over the artistic stone bridge that spans Lake Woodbury at the corner of First avenue and Pearl. Mr. Fuller never does anything by halves, and so when he fell in, went straight to the bottom. When he reached the surface ngain he had in his grasp a number of specimens of splendid genuine Centreville coal. Naturally, Mr. Fuller was wildly ex- cited over the discovery, and generously confided the secret to the above-men- tioned prominent citizens. It took con- siderable effort to convince Mr, Fuller that the coal had been dumped into the lake last fall by Cashier Hannon, in a vain endeavor to make a crossing for First avenue pedestrians. e e e Y Sheafe loans money on real estate. ——— S.

At the anniversary the marriage ceremony was repeated by the squire, and Mr. Field played the same music on the same old ‘fiddle.” Mr. and Mrs. Smith led in dancing the same old uadrille.

Clark, the alleged bigamist now confined in the county jail, have filed a motion in the superior court for a reduction of bail from $1,000 to $400. The motion is pe- companied by certificates from Drs. Thomas and Macrae stating that the prisoner’s presence at the bedside of his wife is an imperative necessity. Mrs. Clark 1s still very low, although some- what improved. It is intimated that if Clark is allowed to go on low bail he will not be here when wanted for trial, e Travelers! Stop at- the Bechitele, P . Board' of Trade. The board of trade met last evening in regular session. A correspondence was read betweeh W. W.

Alderman Matealf stated the .fl*ndivmye of which he is a member would donate fifteen or twenty acres to this company if they would locdte here. Propositions will be submitted from two insurance companies upon the erection of business blocks in this city. Correspondence from a buggy-gear and spring company was also submitted. A committee con- stituted of F. J. Day, George F. Wright and I, O. Gleason was appointed to con- sider the matter. On motion it was made the sense of this board that the following gentlemen would receive the support of the business men if they would aceept the nominations in caucus for council- men: John F. Beno, Fred Weiss, John P. Weaver and E. H. Merriam. The following resolutions were pre- sented, and on motion adopted: Whereas, Efforts are being made to locate a Chautaugua assembly in the vi-;l ity of Council Bluffs and Omaha, and, ‘Whereas, Suchassembly will contrib- ute largely to the material as well as moral welfare of Omaha and Council Bluffs, as well as to the great western commonwealth; it is by the board of trade of Council Bluffs hereby Resolved, That the efforts to estab- lish a Chautauqua in this vicinity ave entitled to the confidence and material ""l’l""'l of all our citizens. tesolved, That an invitation be ex- tended to the board of trade of Omaha to co-operate with us in securing this enterprise, in which lie our mutual in- terests, and that the board of trade of Omaha be requested to n‘ppum a com- mittee to act jointly with a like com- mittee of the board of trade of Council Bluffs, in conferring with the managers of the Chautauqua enterprise, fumiliar- izing themselves with the plans and surposes and assisting in devising urther means for the speedy and suc- ul inauguration of this assembly.

The tenth annual meeting and elec- tion of officers of the Pottawatamie County Mutual Farmer’s Insurance com- pany will be held to-day in the parlors of the Kiel hotel. The company has at pr ent about eight hundred members, re resenting $2,000,000 worth of insure property. During ,the year just passed the total losses amounted to only $1,800, and this is nearly double what it has been for previous year. It is the policy of the company to draw money from the bank to pay u loss within ten days from the time it oceurs, and afterward levy an assessment to pay it back. For the last year the assessment amounted to about 13 mills ~on the dollar, but is usually Je than one mill, as this i vV severe Pottawatta- All farm preperty insured against fire and lightning. The' property is assessed at its full value, and in ¢ of loss two- thirds of the. assessed value is paid. Much care is exercised in placing risks, as the result shows. The company has been very successful thus far, and the members are well satistied with its workings. Har e e The Knights Templar banquet and re- ception hus been postponed. By order Ex.

Wew York Sun: “‘The late ex-Con- gressman €. C, B. Walker of Corning,” said a fellow townsman of the dead poli- tician, ‘‘although one of the most care- ful of business mnen, never would permit the safe in his residence, where he kept valuable papers, money, and rich !umi}y plate and jewelry, to be locked when he was absent from home. Twoor three years ago, ghi e was away, burglars entered his residence and took from the safe over 85,000 worth of diamonds, none of which was ever recovered. When it was learned in Corning that the robbery had been committed with the greatest ease because the safe was unlocked, it could not be understood how a man of the congressman's strict busi- ness methods could be so careless and thoufhtlens in regard to the pro- tection of his household treasures, es- pecially as many of -them, through asso- ciation and long family possession, had a value to him' much beyond their in- trinsic worth, I mentioned the matter to the congressman one day, and ex- pressed my surprise at his carelessness, when he increased m{l surprise by say- ing that the fact of the safe being un- locked on the night of the robbery was not the result’ of carelessness or thoughtlessness, and that it was left open by his express order and direction. *“‘When I am home,’ he snid, ‘I al- ways lock the safe and put the key away. When I goaway from home 1t is understood in.my house that the safe must not be locked. You may remem- ber that when the Wellsboro bank was robbed a few years ago the cashier and members of "his family were treated with great cruelty and violence by the robbers because 'of their resisting the demands for the keys to the vault and safe. That set me to thinking, and gne day I said to my wle: ‘We have some things in that safe which are valiable and very dear to us. Now, it is only a question of time when some ruffian or ruffians will come after them, If I am at home, the chances are that they will not get them; but 1 may be away at the time. if they come then and find that safe locked, they will hesitate at no per- sonal violence tow: you in their efforts to effect an entrance to it. All the precious relics and treasures in the world would not recompense for the re- sult of such treatment. Therefore, when I am absent from home the safe must not be locked. Then if robbers come they will secure their booty and retire without disturbing you.’ “ ‘Robbers came while I was awayy' continued the congressman, ‘‘secured the booty, and left without disturbing Mrs. Walker or any one else. The: were even considerate enough to ad- minister ether to my wife, for fear of disturbing her. Suppose that safe had been locked? I don't care to even con- i‘ovture what the consequences might ave been, and I fecl thatin savin my family from them, the paying of £5,000 was a trifling matter.” “‘After that no one ever expressed surprise over the congressman's safe being open.” ———— Safe, permanent and complete are the cures of bilious and intermittent dis eases, made by Prickly Ash Bitters.
