L0ST BY A TIE VOTE Board of e Men Talk On the Freight Bureau's Letter. DEATH OF MRS, ELIZA HUGUS. Mittman on Trial For Manslaughter— Probability of a Racy Sensa- tional Suit in a Few Days —The Contractors. Board of Trade and Cut Rates. The announcement made in the Bee that the directors of the board of trade had refused to endorse the recommendation of the freight bureau committee, suggesting two amendments to tho inter-state railway law, attracted pretty general attention. The amendmeuts proposed were to enable the inter-state railway commission to act with mor€ haste and to make punishable by fine any jobber who should accept a cut-rate from any railroad. A Bee reporter yesterday learned that the following members of the board were present: P. E. ller, H. H. Meday, J. A. ‘Wakefield. E. Martin, Max Meyer and C. F Goodman, Mr. H. G. Clark was absent from town. Max Meyer was scen and asked how he had voted, Ho said, “I was ina hurry to get away, and a vote had not been taken when I left to go to-the Press club benefit. I under- #tood what was the subject though, and told them to cast a vote in favor of the rec- ommendation for me.” Mr, Goodman was seen, and said: ““1 was not at the meeting when the recommendation was introduced. I left the rooms about 9 o'clock.” John Evans said that there was a mis- taken idea somewhere. Several of the mem- bers held the recommendation was lost, others that it was adopted. *I did not have my mind on the subject. I was thinking about putting in regular order the new by- Jaws which we had just adopted for the type- writer, When they came to a vote I told them that I was not prepared to vote. They said that everybody should vote on the ques- tion and I then told them that if that wasthe case, on general principles, 1 would vote in the affirmative, because the matter was re- mmended by a committee. So I voted aye. r. Iler thought the matter was lost, but I think it will be reconsidered at the next meeting. Everybody was tired after we had got through the reading of the by-laws and wanted to go home or to the l’;rcu!’\ clubshow, I think the vote was 3, Mr. Iler said that the question of amending the inter-state railway law had come to them through a letter from the freight bureau mmittee. One of the amandments was to ake criminally liable a jobber who should accept a cut rate from any railioad. Such a thing would not be advisable and it would not do for the boardof trade to take any in- terest in such a move. It would be sking too much of merchants to jgn ~ such @& document. He did not think they would sign it. If he should telegraph a nian to send him goods at the Jowest rates, he woula expect those goods at the very lowest rates that could be got. It had to be carried out that way in the inter- est of business and to protect the jobber ®gainst competitors. To take his case as an xample: He had to equalize the rates to St. o, Kansas City, Peoria and Chicago on every shipment he made to those points, be- cause there were no cuts to those points, and that equalization he had to pay out of his own pocket. If the amendments were car- ried it would close up every wholesale house in Omaha. MORTUARY. r—— MEUSCHKE, * The second German actor to die in this city was Louis Meuschke, whose death took place at St. Joseph's hospital on last Thurs- @ay evening. He had been an inmate of the hospital for two weeks, and death was occa- sioned by dropsy. Mr. Meuschke was born n Altenberg, Saxony, in 1835, He ecarly levoted himself to the stage, playing first in {fuvenile parts and with considerable success. He came to this country when he was twenty- one years of age, and continued in his pro- fession until the breaking out of the war, when he enlisted in one of the Missouri regi- ments. He returned a veteran, having in the several campaigns suffered a great deal rom the hardships of the struggle. He re ained the greater part of the time since in lissouri, and came to Omaha at the pening of the last theatrical sea- on, engaging with his wife, in the German company of Baureis & Puls, ‘Which is playing every Sunday night at the oyd. Since his debut in this city he has layed a number of old-men characters in a ery successful manner. He was a member f & Grand Army post in St. Louis and that rganization has been telegraphed concern- his death. The date of his burial has not . 6t been determined upon. P ROVNEY The rn;mnilnn‘fr“.

Suit was brought in the United States cir- it court yesterday by the Necbraska Tel- {:\mnp company, through their attornoys, Hall & McCulloch, to enjoin D. C. Dunbar & . from publishing a telephone directory. 'he Telephone company, in its bill proceeds to recite that they have gone through all the processes of the law and been granted a copy- right to said directory for the period of twepty-eight years. Further, that Dunbar & CO. are attempting and coniriving to @vade the laws of the United States respect- ing copyrights and have without license or leave of said telephone company, and in vio- lation of their copyright, copied, printed and about to circulate @ pamphlet similar to mlr directory, greatly to the company’s detriment financially and otherwise. The Dunbar pamphlet, save the advertisements, is an exact copy of the company’s book, and they propose to issue about 1,000 copies of the same. mplainants ask that Dunbar & Co. be_restr: from this publication by an order of injunction from the court, and that the copies already printed be coufiscuted to the use of the Telephone company.

Claus Ichner spoke English so imperfectly that the services of an interpreter was made necessary, His testimony corroborated Siert's. The court then adjourned until 2 o'clock Mittman was then put_on the stand to tes- tify in his own behalf. He swore that Koll and Dunham came in and commenced to abuse him and dared him to fight. He asked them to go_out at least ten times. After several of the men had gone out together ~ with Koll and_~ Dunham the two latter rmed and attacked him, Koll had a cane in his hand. Koll aud Durbam attacked him from behind, and threw him down and kicked him. But witness managed to get up, Durham then hit Mitt- man with a chisel, which he had picked up near the ice box. ' He then pulled his pistol and struck Durham three times, cand the weapon exploded. en Mittman concluded his testimony, Assistant County Attorney Gurley arose and addressed the jury. He was followed on the part of the de! by Mr. Burnham, who finished at fifteen minutes before 5 o'clock, when court adjourned until this morning, when General Cowin and County Attorney Simeral will present their arguments, after which the case will be given to the jury.

He further alleges that the chil- dren’s stepmother, Anna_ C. Bergquist, sur- reptitiously obtained the appointment of guardian and that she is_totally unfit to cave for them, as her moral example was bad. The stepmother appeared and consented to her removal. - The court then appointed Gus- tave Anderson guardion and ordered that the children be sent_to Brownell hall to be edu- cated. This order was made on the recom- mendation of the newly appointed guardian.

He was arrested for stealing two overcoat and & couple of fur caps (Sro_m the boarding house, at the corger of 'lxu‘cnhl and Mason streets. The hoarders daught him_in_the act, and held him until the patrol could be called. He went over the hill for thirty days, the first and last five on bread and water. John McGuire,a desperate young hoodlum, who hit & man in the head with a brick, and nearly killed him down in Dago alley a month or two since, was arrested on a similar offense. He assaulted John Foos at the corner of Fourteenth and Leavenworth streets, and knocked him sense- less into the gutter. Foos lay unconscious for over twelve hours, and for a time it was extremely problematical whether he cver re- vived or not. McGuire was given forty days in the jail and & and costs, Joe Brown, another old offender, was up again yesterday. Some threo weeks ago he was sent to jail for twenty-five days for stealing a wringer. While in the city jail Sergeant Sigwart caught him going through the clothes of his fellow rrisnhers, and yes- tesday he was rearrested on this charge. He made an elegant appeal to the court, but his previous record was against him and he was given thirty days. August Kastl, who resides at 903 North Campbell street, and whois a_thirteen year old lad, came into the g;\_mg[',\-lo doy. and swore out a warrant for the st of the driyer ofhorge car No, 40 of the Red 1ife.

In tho afteriidon Ada Boynton, a cyprian, was charged with larceny as bailee of some clothes belonging to Lulu Palmer, the pro- prietress of a South Omaha bawdy house, with which Ida was recently connected. After some hard words with Lulu one after- noon Ada had come up to Omaha expecting to return the same evening, but after getting in Omaha decided to stay here. At the time she had on some of Lulu’s clothes. Meeting Luiu a few days later she offered to return the garments’ if Lulu would go to her room with her, so that she could put on others in- stead. Lulu refused to do this and caused Ada’s arrest. The judge told the prisoner he would dismiss the case provided she returned the clothes. This she readily did. Some in- teresting side testimony was brought of rather a startling character in which the girls said that the mayor and marshal of South Omaha were not only frequenters of their lioiisé, but came there often to gamble. ——— Contractors and Journeymen The contractors, the architects, the brick manufacturers and the boss carpenters have rented a suite of Yooms numbered 480 m the Paxton building, where they will hereafter hold all their meetings, The brick mat.ufac- turers propose to establish a black list of the &mall contractors who owe them for brick and hang the same upon the wall of the room.

The Terrible History of Mattie Koll- meyer's Career. The Brr's recent publication con cerning the inheritance left to a courtesan named Mattie Kollmeyer created no little speculation as to the woman'd pfesent whereabouts and condition. Her location ‘was unknown to the police, and it was only by accident that a Bur representative dis- covered one who knows her complete his- tory, as well as her present place of abode. If Mr. Stevens, the gentlemen now engaged in searching for her, will call at the Bee office he will learn to whom to apply. Mattie Kollmeyer's shameful history is a strange one. After the death of her hus- band at Sioux City the woman drifted to Minneapolis, and thence te Omaha. Her husband was & painter by trade, and an hon- est upright man. After his death Mattie drifted into bad company, and was cast off by her father, a wealthy and respected citi- zen, But little is known of Mattie's carcer in Minneapolis, but her Omaha life has been one of * frightful degradation. When she first came here, she entered a house of prostitu- tion at Eleveneth and Davenport streets, kept by & woman named Flory. Mattie became addicted to drink, and when intoxicated was of the mushqunrrclaome disposition. She has had many bloody fights, and has figured fre- quently as 8 _prisoner in the police court. She invariably escaped with a fiue which was ‘:mmptl,v paid by friends ip this city who mew her parents, She drifted from one dive to another until her only companions ‘vere the lowest types of negros and white men, She was always to be found in the lowest haunts of vice, and here her vicious chavac- ter was fully displayed by terrible debauches and many hard fights. Finally, during the early part of the win- ter she joined fortunes with a negro. A mock marriage ceremony was gone through with, and the entire “wedding” oparty got glori- ously drunk. Shortly before Christmas she and her dusky ‘‘husband” departed from this city, and are now living near Fremont, Neb. g New York Storage Co., and 15th st. WRIGHT—Dr. Edward R.
