Dan Clancy, an ex-hack driver of this city, now residing in the country a few miles from here, appeared at the police station and told a story of assault and robbery ot which he claimed to be the vie- tim. He said that he was in “The-Hole- in-the-Wall” on lower Broadway, kept b{l.‘luhn Green, on_Saturday evening, when some one told him to gaze at something above his head. He did so, and was immediately deult a terrific blow on the head, felling him to the floor. His assailant jumped upon him and proceeded to g0 through his pockets, getting about 88 in money. He swore out a warrant for the robbers, for there were two of them, and during the afternoon two men were arrested and taken to the station. Clancy said they were not the rifm ones and they were released. He said that he was rather full at the time, and damnded lnrgel" on a boon com- nion to relate the facts in the case. tories of having a check for $160 on his person, and others of like nature, convinced the police that he must be drawing lnrgel{ on his imagination for his_sensational narration. Clancy is #aid to have got rnlhe( in_the habit of retting robbed every time he visits the luffs. His imagination seems to be lniokened by the use of the ardent. ccording to the statement of others he has cleimed to be robbed some time between Saturday night and Monday morning. 8. Cooper. e B E.

The *‘hurry-up wagon” rolled up to the policé station yesterday afternoon with a load of brass buttons, blue coats, bruised heads and sorry looking human- ity. A telephone call from Bluffs street announced that a fight was in progress at Price Gibson’s place, and after a bhasty trip the wagon was returning with the ‘‘coppers” and the peace dis- turbers. The pugilists were booked as Tom Pardo and Albert Rodgers. Pardo was well filled with liquid exuberance, and was unable to give an intelligent version of the affair, but Rodgers stated that he was plaly):ng cards with Pardo, and the Intter became angry because he was beaten. When he was not expecting it Rodgers received a ‘‘red-hot eye- opener,” and, being unwilling to “sit and be pounded, he called for a new deal, drew three trumps, and was ‘‘see- ing" his opponent in good shape, when the police appeared and took a hand in the game. Clubs were trumps, and the officers were well supplied. The belig- erents were quickly gathered in and lodged behind the bars, charged with disturbing the peace, Pardo was also charged with drunkenness, Business will be good in the police court this morning and Squire Schurz will levy pssessments accordiing to the old stand- ard of rates and prices. — Dr. R.

They Don't Want to See the “Wheels Go 'Wound.” THE COFFMAN TRIAL STILL ON. It Takes a Change of Venue to the New Court House—A Clubbing. Match—Police Pointers —~Whisky Robbery. The Strike in the Bluffs. The general strikeof all the engineers and firemen on the entire Cicago, Bur- lington & Quincy system at 4 o'clock yesterday morning affected this point as other terminals of divisions. All en- gines arriving in the the yards here were backed into'the round house and the foreman notified by the enginemen that they would respond to nomore calls until the strike was ended. Instead of deserting trains wherever they might be at the appointed time, they were ull taken to their destination, or at least to the end of the division. The ‘‘fiyer” from Chicago was brought as far as Creston, but the regular crew would not start out from there, and the travelling engineer of the road ran the train from there to the Bluffs. The Kansas City train was taken out by Master Mechanic Bridenstein, foreman of the round-house here. When he tried to stop for the railroad crossing at Pa- cific Junction the air brakes refused to work and he collided with another en- gine just backing over the crossing. The tender of the switch engine was thrown off the track, but no serious dam- age done. An attempt was made to ar- rest Mr. Bridenstein for not stopping at the crossing. He got off the engine and was ready to submit to arrest, but when he found there was no warrant and no apparent authority he again mounted his engine and rolled on his way. This incident led to numerous reports about a tender being purposely thrown across the track and numerous arrests fol- lowing. The Chicago fast mail was taken out by the regular engineer, Bert Russell, on No. 288. Mr. Russell is a member of the brotherhood, but as it is not the in- tention of the strikers to interfere with the mail. they will furnish men to run the mail trains, but no passenger coaches will be drawn. A BEEreporter visited the Kansas City roundhouse, and found there seven engines, more than has been in‘the house at one time since the strike of 1877, Mr. M. M. Marshall, general agent of the road was running a switch engine in the yards during the morning. ‘When seen at his office in the afternoon by the reporter, he said that the strike was not as serious as it seemed at first sight, as the passenger trains would all soon be running,as men were coming in fast from other roads. All brotherhood engineers, however, will of course refuse to lend any assistance. Mr. Marshall stated that nothing would be dove in the freight line, until the force was running ugain. Mr. Marshall was one of the busiest of men yesterday. Be- sides his regular duties, which were yesterday thrown into much irregular- ity, he served as engineer, fireman, switchman, and telegraph operator. He isone of the best ‘‘all-round” railway men, and is well up whether he needs tosend a message or runan engine. He found all his abilities culled into re- quisition yesterday. The regular outgoing passenger on the “Q" was taken out by the traveling engineer of the road, who brought in the ‘“‘flyer” in the morning from Cres- ton. About 9:30 o’clock in the evening a couple of ‘‘scabs” went to the round- house and took out an engine to run the regular K. C. passenger- train. They coupled onto the train, bat the water was low, and the scab engineer was un- able to get any more into the boiler and the fire had to be dumped. The engineer immediately skipped out, and has not sincc been heard of. After much labor the engine was backed into the house by hand, but it is: not yet known whether or not any damage was done by the water out giving. The strikers are very jubilant over the prospect and are firm in the belief that the company will accede to their demands. e Union Abstract Co., 236 Main st. e 1f you desire to get a new Hall type writer cheap, drop a postal card to H.

Judge Loofbourow adjourned court early Sat- urday afternoon at the Masonic temple in order to give time for the removal to the new court house, where the hearing was to be resumed yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. Judge Loofbourow went to his home at Atlantic® to spend Sunday, and ex- pected to return on the early train Monday. The train was late, however, and the other participants in the trial, with the expectant crowd of lookers-on, waited patiently until near noon, when the aunouncement was made that court stood adjourned until 2o’clock in the afternoon, Judge Carson, who has just closed a term in Fremont county, and who is taking a week of rest before going to Harlan, was one of the prominents in- side the new railing. The morning hours afforded an opportunity for him and others to determine as to the con- venience of the arrangement of jury box, clerk’s desk, ete. It was decided that a change was desirable, and such a change is made, the jury being placed on the opposite side from that originll‘lly reserved for them. .The clerk’s desk was also changed. Inside the rail waslaid the old matting taken from the Masonic temple, but this is to be replaced by a carpet, more in keeping with the other elegant appointments of the new court house. ne convenience was noticeably lacking. There were many in the crowd of visitors who thronged the new court house, who were not only ex- pectant but expectorators. There was o startling lack of cuspadores. And the reckless disposition of nicotine saliva_was an urgent showing of the necessity of hurrying the shipment of the one hundred _spittoons already oraered by the board of supervisors. In the afternoon at the hour set, Judge Loofbourow seated himself on the new throne, beneath a rather ecclesinstical cnnop}{v, and the swearing of witm‘xi«!s}(olluwc . A A One of the stron, ints in suppor! of the claim that {.“r))gmnn shot g‘:‘in in self defense, has been the evidence that Coffman was badly pounded by Muin. In furtherance of this branch of the defense, Dr. Pinney and Dr. Macrae were called. Theyexamined and treated Coffman after the aftray and found his injuries to be serious. Mr. Jackson, of Avoea, who was employed for several days to nurse Coffman, also testified as to the nature of the wounds and bruises. J. B. Blake, who had been one of the witnesses for the prosecution, was called on the part of the defense to show that, Selsby was not in Trion’s restaurant at the time of the trouble. Selsby, & new witness, who was not atthe former trial had testifiéd that he saw & good deal of the affair. Blake denied that he wag there, Mrs. Trion, who, with her husband kept a restaurant, testified that she never saw the man Selsby there, and that he was not boarding there. She did not remember ever secing’ him be- fore this trial. She could not swear that he did not eat a meal in the house, but it was not to her knowledge, and she had good opportunities of knowing. Mr. Trion testified that he could not remember of lmvmp{l seen the man Selsby before he saw him on the stand as a witness, He did not believe Selsby ever took a meal at his restaurant or was there at all. Mr. Trion wasan eye-witness to the tragedy, and from his account of it Main struck Coffman, knocked him back over a keg and had him down pounding him when Trion started to separate them. Before he reached them the shot was fired which killed Main. The testimony of this witness was very clear, and it is looked upon as the strongest evidence in Coff- man’s behalf that can be produced. Mr. Coffman himself is unable to recall many details on account of his being confused by the blows he received at Main’s hands. but Mr. Trion was in a better condition to know just what oc- curred, ¥ 1t seems conceded by the lookers-on that the prosecution s less vigorous than on the preceding triaul, and the defense weaker, which leads many to predict that whereas a disagreement was the former result, an acquittal will this time be given. —— On the market for over twenty years.

By order of the committee. . The Kepublican Club, About twenty-five republicans met at the office of Sapp & Pusey last evening for the purpose of forming a republican club. As the committee appointed to draw up by-laws had .not completed their Irbors in that direction, they were granted an extension of time for one week. Plans of operation for the coming election were discussed at some length. Several expressed the opinion that it would be unwise to run a straight républican ticket democratic majority is so large, and that a citizen’s ticket composed rtly of republicans and partly of the better class of the demo- cratic party could be elected, especially as the nominees thus far put up by the democrats are decidedly distasteful to the better element of that party. After apendh.\f an hour in talking over the matter, it was decided towait a few days and see what course affairs would take, and the meeting adjourned until Friday evening. 3 as the ———— The Work of the Police. In the police court yesterday morning Charles Brown, the hurglar, was bound over to the grand jury in the sum of $250.

One was White of Ken- tucky, a man of feir ability, but an un- doubted crank, and - the other was the remarkably loquacious “and acious Towa man who was known as ‘Calamity Weller.” One day these two men h taken up the time of the house in g vig- orous and irrelevant debate on opposite - Py DAILY BEE TUESDAY, sides of a certain motion. The house was laughing at them, and the aquestion was ordered to b taken. by the tellers. I called the ntleman. from Ken- }uqlq,‘ Mr, Wfig, f“d the - gentlemun vom Towa, Mr. Weller o aclas tellers, and as the two approached each other in front of the aker it was like the meeting of two intellectual dromios. The house grasped the situation, and the roar of laughter sounded like the howling of roum’'s menagerie. Speaker Carlisle heard the noise in his rivate room, and he rushed into the ouse with his*“eyes protruding, and was about to assufne the gavel to restore order. A moment later, however, he learned the facts, and that the so-called fun was rather accidental than inten- tional. It was the only thing that could have been done under the cir- cumstances, as the two were the cham- vions of the opposite sides of the ques- tion at issue. In this case L got the credit for being humorous, where, in- deed, I could not have acted otherwise. ‘‘At another time, while I was in the chair,” continued Mr. Cox, “‘General Steele, of Indiana, had the floor for an hour on a favorite measure. He was parceling out his time, as is the custom, giving certain members a few minutes, and em]envurln‘f to preserve a few min- utes to himsell. e had, however, given out all but a quarter of a minute, and he asked that this might be left for him. He neglected, however, to claim the floor at the proper time, and he lost his quarter of & minute. His measure was called up without the previous question, and he was thus J’hmed in coventry. He rose in greatindignation and cried, shaking his fist at me: ¢*Mr. Chairman, what has become of v quarter of a minute?’ “To this I replied: ‘It has gone to the rearward and abysm of time." Here the house laughed lustily, but it was not my fault that the situation was a humor- ous one. T stated a plain matter of fact. General Steele. however, was not satis- fied with losing his quarter of a minute. He nursed his wrath and kept it warm until the end of the session, when I had the floor on some critical bill and was pursuasively asking for more tfme. He claimed the floor and offered to hand over to me the quarter of a minute which hesaid I had once stolen from him. Of course the house roared, and I got the credit for being funny, when it was, in fact, General Steele. ““As to the funny things which have happened during the time I have been in the chair this session they were not intentional. At one time, when the house was being counted, I made the routine inquiry: ‘As many as are in favor of the proposition will rise and stand until they are counted.’ No one rose. Ithen announced: ‘Affirmative none,’ and followed with the formula required, which states: ‘Yeas will be seated and the nays rise.” There were no yeas, and the Irish bull was at once caught up by CGollins of Massachusetts and O’Ferrall of Virginia and several other Irishmen, ‘who are always ready with their lariat to lasso the Celtic bovine when he is loose. **At another time, while I was acting as speuker, I committed what might be called an unpardonable bull. It was during a time of great confusion on the floor, and I exclunimed: ‘‘If the gentle- man from Missguri would be heard he must suspend!” "But I had no intention of setting the hoase in a roar, and Isup- vose my mistakes come from my Celtic extraction, which is certified to by my middle name ofiBullivan, of which I am proud.” et g The Only Line That Gets There. It has been'‘Wwell said by a distin- guished writer-that ‘‘the Michigan Central is the only ‘Niagara ]“1\% Route’ in the country.” It is theonly railroad that runs direct- 1y by the falls and stops its trains at a point from which all parts of the falls and the rapids are in full view. From this point, called Falls View, the scene from the Michigan Central train whether in its summer setting of emer- ald or its winter setting of crystal, is one of unexampled grandeur and sub- limity. Asit is on the direct route to New York, Boston, ana New Eng- land, no east-bound traveler should fail to take advantage of it. S THE MANDAN INDIANS. A Tribe That is Rapidly Fading Out of Existence—Their Past. A writer in the Pioneer Press says: They were very much like the Digger Indians that are met with along the Union Pacific railroad, only that the Mandans—those that are left of them— are willing o avail themselves of what benefits civilization has to offer. The visitor to Fort Clark need to be con- stantly on the lookout, even at this day, for the primitive residences of these descendants—if such—of the ancient Mandans. The prairie is dotted over with holes in the ground, averaging ten to twelve feet in diameter and the sume depth. They are larger at the bottom than the top, and come to as much of a point as the Indians could secure. They did not quite know how to make & lad- der according to the plans of the nine- teenth century, and they contented themselves with unhandy pieces of knot- ted cottonwood for staircases. Judging from the appearaaces of the empty holes, and the mounds that are met with all over the plains, these Indians were ripe for an epidemic. Their part in the battle of life had been played, and it was time for the nation to quit this vale of tearsin a body. It is a somewhat gralfl&ng fact to note that there are only about two hundred of the Mandans left, and they are grad- ually sinking away into obscurity. If their prolongation of the life of the tribe would help us to connect them with the classic character of thousands of years ago, it would be a different mat- ter. An old Indian, bowed tothe ground with age and infirmities, who wrapped his blanket around his frail and de- crepit body with i clutch as though he would fain take. it to the happy hunting rounds with him, was met at Fort “lark by the writer some time ago, and in his weak way be was communicative. He had a stick with him, which he car- ried a good many years, on which are cut & number of notches. He impresses the visitor that he has lived as many summers as there are notcheson the stick. If he is not fooling anybody, he is ninety-three years old. He seems to be full of. $raditions and facts, but it is like ‘pulling teeth to get them from him, His language seems to be made up of signs and gestioulations and glances to heaven, If fie isan actual descendant of the fair daughterof Asty- ages, some of his ancestors have neg- lected his educidtion in a way *that the should be ashamed of. He is full of ref- erences to the happy days of the past, but he makes no mention of any better residences than holes in the ground, during his recollection. But all signs fail if the tribe to which this old man belongs did not have & past that was a great deal more brilliant and a great less bestial, than that which we see signs of to.day as having been the con- dition of the Mandans of the last two centurigs, How about the mounds? was asked the old man—mounds that are found in large numbers along the Mis- souri between Fort Yatesand Fort Bert- hold. He told me that villages existed in the vicinity of these mounds. They are but refuse that was thrown out of the residences of the tribe. Corn cobs, broken pottery, human bodies, dead dogs, bones of animals, buffalo heads s |- FEBRUARY 25, 1888, and bones, and all kinds of rubbish were thrown there. It is impossible to in- terest an Indian in these mounds. And yet these relics of the past are the only thing the man can goto who desirés 0 léarn something About the inhabi- tants of this reglon as they existed cen- turies ago. Their traditions may be interesting to hear and to read, but one always realizes that there is room for an abundance of imagination in the traditions of Indians. The mounds that are met with two miles south of Mandan, and which have been pretty well ransacked by local explorers, weve it is generally supposed, the work of Mandan Indians before the smallpox scourge came and committed such rav- ages on them. They have been prett; well leveled to ‘the ground, an last summer [ [4 crop of the finest Dakota corn grew over the ‘Walhalla of the aboriginal owners of the soil. Time and again attempts have been made to gather something more from the few remaining members of the almost extinet race than mere "5‘“ and heavenward looks. The book describ- ing the wanderings of this band of red men from the plains of Asia to the Mis- souri slope—if so they wandered—is as yet unwritten. The difficulties that surround its composition are increasing day by day. Nota scrap of writing is possessed by any of the tribe, and only in the most shadowy traditions do there exist any papyrus, parchment of writ- ings of any kind, telling anything about the wanderings of the Mandans. It may be in the future that there will be de- velopments in this direction. In the mind of the writer there is a fruitful fleld here for the explorer, not merely in the ‘mounds that this interesting people left to the world, butin the mem- ories of some of the older members of the survivors. it The Bales of Cachmere Bouquet exceeds in amount the importations of all toilet soaps, as shown by U. 8. 1887 treasury report.
