ANENCINE THAT NEVER CAME A Traveling Man Tells of His Trials on the Burllngton. EIGHT HOURS ON A SIDE TRACK And Then Gave His Trip Up in Dis- A Chanoce to Provide a City Market — Judges Exchango Places—Bricfs. 1020 P Street, Laxcoux, April 17, A traveling man who attempted to make the town of Milford yesterday made some discoveries in regard to the ington road’s ability to transact and handle business. is made constantly and persistently re moving regularly and that all business is being handled satisf: rily, but the facts do mot warrant the claim. The truth is that the road is getting in a deplor- able condition through lack of locomotives to handie the trains that the company attempts tomove at the present time. Tiwo engines came into Lincoln Monday that were wrocked at Beatrice, and two more were wrecked the next day at Kesterson that are en route to the shops. The company, through their newspapers and through all public announce- ments on all occasions, try to hide these facts, but they cannot always get them under cover. The traveling man who discovered some things yesterday went to the depot in the early morning hours to go to Milford on an early freight. He found six or cight other passengers going the same way, and the train made up ready to go out, but no loco- motive to hasul it. Two other trains were made up, aleo waiting for en- gines. For ecight long hours the trav- eling man and his fellow passengers waited for an engine to take the train and then gave it up, and an employe stated that the train would probably not got away at all yesterday. The gentleman furnished the following communication for the benefit of the public: LaxcoLy, April 17, 1888, —Editor Ber: The treatment shippers and the traveling public are receiving at the hands of the B. & M. is most shameful and unbearable. The writer of this has been waiting eight solid hours with five other passengers in a car laden with filth and disorder, attached to a n advertised to leave Lincoln at 7 a. m., ca - ing both passengers and freight. Among the other passengers is Mr. G. W. Elston of Col- umbus, Neb,, having in charge o carload of fine Norman brood mares, which he loaded last Sunday noon at Murray, Ia., 150 miles east of here, upou the posit urance of the Chicago, Bnrlington & Quincy railroad agent at Murray that they would go through without delay to Columbus. They have now boen out over forty-eight hours without feed and water and are standing sixty miles from their destimation in the B. & M. yards here waiting for an engine to come in off the road to take the train. Mr. Elston and the other passengers feel excoedingly tropical and swear they will never patronize the B. & M. again. PASSENGER. "The last nformation received by this gen- tleman after the eight-hour wait was that an order was issued for the first two engines that came in off the road to take other trains, and for the third engine in to take this train. The trip was then abandoned. While these passengers were_waiting they were enter- tained by the work of one of the company’s competent engineers who backed his_engine in the yard with such vigor as to break in the end of a coal car and a way car. A CITY MARKET, An ordinance is in progress beforo the city council that provides for the opening of a city market ongMarket square, the ground reserved for this purpose at the founding of the city. The project for a city market will undoubtedly meet with the hearty approval of ull and be of dircot benefit to the consumer inthe ¢ There is a proposition before the council relative to the opening of the market that, if accepted, will settle the matter at a ver, rly day. Mr. W. H. Pritchard pro- poses that if the city will furnish him the material and three city prisoners to assist in the work he will build all the walks and buildings and stalls required for a first-class market place, He will put the square in condition for busi- ness and will take for his pay the rentals for the first year, asking that he have general supervision of the same and that the city scales be put in his charge, he to retain to provide him a salary 40 cents on the dollar of the receipts from the scales. ‘The market square is very accessible to the hotels, boarding houses and a large resi- dent part of the city, and it would undoubt- edly, in the course vf a few years, grow to be & public convenience and in time be a paying institution for the city itself. The ac’ion on opening the market will be known at the next council session. THEY EXCHANGE PULPITS, Yesterday Judge Chapman, of this district, came up from Plattsmouth en route for Te- cumseh, where he holds court the present week, exchanging benches with = Judge Broady, who has gone to Plattsmouth to hold court during the same time for Judge Chap- man. In this district, as in a number of others, Mr. Chapman, when placed upon the bench, had a large number of cases pending in the courts and the hearing of them de- volves upon a judge who has not represented them as an attorney, Judge Field, the second judge in this district, is engaged in closing the term of court in this county.

Prickly Ash Bitters now take the place of the old system and is more beneficial in all troubles of this nature. Mr. Lyon's Bank. F. L. Lyon, Iate president of fhe State National bank of this city, which is now undergoing exammation at the hands of J. M. Grifith, national bank examiner for Ne- brasia ana Kansas,returned Monday evening from Stockton, Cal,, and yesterday paida visit to the bank in question. He was clos- eted for sometime with Mr. Grifiith, after which he was met by a Ber reporter, to whom he simparted the following informa- tion. He had been telegraphed by Mr. Mo- Fadden, the cashier of the bank and immedi- ately responded 1n person. The condition of tho affairs of the bank was a surprise to him bocause when he left here he did not appre- hend that tho institution would have been subjected to the annoyance which it had lately oxperionced. He had sold out his interest in the bank to Mr. Whaley, of the Sherman county bank of Loup City, and had remained in town for possibly thirty days after the sale, attending to the busineas neo- essary to making a permanent_change from Omaha to the coast for the benefit of his hoalth. Before leaving, however, he had reason to regret that he had made his sale and on the day of his departure he would gladly have given 8500 to recall it. His re- frct ‘was occasioned by the knowledge of the [act that the bank was in a good financial condition; that it had after its first year's business, Which was always more or Less dis- couraging to a new. institution o @ strange place, an earning of $1,500 with about $400 undivided profits, while for the months of February and March they were about §2,000. But the transfer had been made and was be- yond recall. There wero other circumstances hich induced him to regret the change, and that was the knowledge that his charter was of cousiderable value and worth a certain per cent, say r cent, over and above what it was at the time it was_procured, because a charter for a bank with a capital of $100,000 could not now be procured in a city of this sizo. The charter was procured with the in- fluence of Senator Manderson and the late Congressman er. Since then a chango had taken place in the rules governing the establishment of national banks and a similar charter could not be obtained unless by the comptroller setting aside the rules, which Mr, Lyon did not think that officer would. ‘What amount of yourstock did you sell?” asked the reporter. “Fifty-one thousand dollars worth.” “Ata premium?’ Yes." How much “Seven and a half.” w+How much did you receive for it?" “About $55,000. “What was the amount paid in?" “The notes of Mr. Whaley. “What security was given for them?" “They were endorsed by the Sherman county banking company. “That bank is located at Loup City and Mr. Whaley is its president?’ Yes, sir." ““What was the matter with the security?” ““Well, an attempt was made to re-discount the notes and without success, and the bank examiner came here and thought that the affairs ought to be straightened up, because he holds that the security was not exactly what it_ought to have been. If thatis the caseand the cxaminer does not think that the eredit of the bauk is impaired, why, I will take hold of the bank again and conduct the business.” “‘Who were associated with Mr. Whaley in this business?"? “Why, Mr. Tice, cashier of the Sherman County bank, and 'Mr. Chapman, a man of this city, whom you know perhaps better than I do. He wont to New York to try and se money on some bonds. Mr. Chapman a wealthy man—in fact I think he is worth etween $100,000 and §175,000. I guess he was the money-man of the a ““Whore is Mr. Whaley, now¢ ““He has gone to Chicago, I think he left here yesterda, “Did he know you were coming?" T don’t know.” ““What did he go there for1” “T think it was to attempt to raise some money.” Do you know when he will return?? “No, I can’t say that I do.” Mr. Lyon is evidently not a well man. He says he is a victim to an infirmity contracted in'the late war, which has been aggravated lg later years. ' His family is still in Stock- n. M. Grifith was seen by the roporter, snd snid that he had not yet finished his examina- tion of the affairs of the banlk, although he had been working on the matter steaaily for some time. He said he thought he wouid be h his report by the end of the weel. rifliths remarked that if Nebraska had ate inspector of banks this state of affairs would not be possible in private state banks, and that some of the leadmg bankers in the state had suggested the appointment of such an official. — An Absolute Cure.
