In police court yesterday morning the c: of J. M. MclIntyre for breaking open a car on the Chicago & Northwestern railvoad was continued.

J. N. Baldwin appeared for the stute, and John Lindt was counsel for the defendant. About twenty-five witnesses were examined, the majority being for the defeuse. The court in summing up the evi dence said that the testimony of several wit nesses showed that the defendant, who is ordinarily a peaceable, law-abiding citizen, had been drinking, or the trouble would l obably never have occurre He thought he charge of assault with intent to commnit murder was not sustained, but thought that there was an assault, and’ as the defendant would experience no inconvenience in secur- ing bonds for his uppe he would bind him over to the grand jury in the suw of “or Assault, W.

The Benefit Concert Proves to Be a Grand Succese. BOUND OVER FOR ASSAULT. A Deced in the Wrong Place—More Police Needed—Board of Trade Will Boom Chautaugua—Court Items—Personals, A Feast of Good Things. The concert given last evening in the Congregational Church as a benefit to Prof Yormandie was an unqualified success, On account of the non-arrival of Mr. Tabor at the hour for beginning the programme was changed somewhat. Miss Winnie Crofts appeared in solo, ‘‘Norwegian Bridal Procession, Grieg, which was beautifully rendered, and received merited applause. Nat Brigham's appearance elicited a hearty reception. Though not in his best voice his rendition of 0O, Happy Day,"” by Goetz, was magnificent, and received a deserved encore. He re- nded with “The Bird Song,” by Soder- “The Song of the Birds,” a duet by Rubenstein, was most excellently rendered by Mrs. J. G. Wadsworth and Mrs. Bert Evans. An encore was loudly called for, but on account of lack of preparation the failed to respond. Mr. F. L. Hayden I3 ““Alone at Last,” by George Schleiffarth, n a pleasing manner, Mrs. J Judd ren- dered “The Daily Question,” by Erik Mever- Helmund, so cbarmingly thatthe audience demanded a repetition, but the intended encore was mnot recognized. Mrs. H. W. Higgins next appeared in recita- tions. *‘A Kentucky Belle” w splendidly rendered and received an encore, to which she responded with ‘“Auxitalicus,” a beauti- ful thing which was well rendered. Mr. Jul)m having arrived, next appeared in en's “Adagio Con'tavile.” By the ar- n this grand musical conception was faith- fully interpreted, and a_repetition was de- manded, M G. Wadsworth sang the ‘‘Aria Rondo, om La Sonambula so artis- tically that a second appearance was de- manded. She answered the call with “Quite in the Usual Way,” by Caldicott. Misses Mattie and Hattie l"\lml'r sang the duet, SO Swallow, Happy Swallow,” by Kucken, it was rendered charmingly, and arepetition was demanded, to which the ladies responded with “The Carnival of Venice,” by H. Mil- iard. Mr. Brigham ngain appeared, with that beautiful gem of Abt's, “*Sleep Well, Sweet Angel,” which called for an encore, which hlc responded to with “Dreawms,” by Strelez- ski. Mr. Frank Badollet gave a flute “‘Rouance and Farantella” and added new laurels to his alrea enviable reputation, Mr. Tabor rende losing number, the “Festival March” by Smart. Mrs. Wadsworth, Mrs, Evans, Mr. Wescott and Pro McDermid rendered “To Thee O Country” in a manner most pleasing. This closed one of the hest and most thoroughly enjoyed entertainments that has been given in this ¢ The results are most satisfactor The urch was well flllml which will give a net result of nearly $150." The success is due to the heartiness with which the work was taken in hand by all those interested and to them all Prof. Normandie extends a hearty “thank you.” More Poli en Needed. The new police force is now fairly started in its work, aud is making a-good beginning. The “new broom” theory holds good in this case, and it is hoped that it will continue. There is no doubt but that Chief Lucas will do all t an be done with the number men on the force, but it is evident to every:- one that the number is altozethe 100 s 1 to cover the amount of territory that has to be patrolled by the city polic here are but seven patrolmen on the force, five of whom are on the night force, leaving but two for day duty. As it is impossible for the average policeman to be in half a dozen places at the same time, it can be readily seen that the number is inadequate, The aptain of police, who has charge of the night foree, is supposed to cover all the beat: nd look after his men as well as the 'rs who dieturb the peace and quiet In the past the chief has pa- trolled Middle Broad: but his duties are suflicient to keep him in his office a large share of the time, if prope tended to, The fo! to be attired in regulation uni- form and it is hoped that the mayor will go a step farther and increase the size of his re as the rapid growth of the city, and the consequent inc) in the number of the light-tingered gentry passing through here, malces such a course imperative. a piano " by ——— Don’t Own His Own Farm. afternoon James S. Liggett, a 1 known and well-to-do farmer in Hardin township was in the city and visited the county recorder for the purpose of securing aloan, He offered his farm of eighty as security. but was told that the records show that he does not own such m. It some person, representing him- ration mentioned in the instrument is X The deed w then recorded. At this time the real Liggett was in Chicago and knew nothing of these transactions until his return home. Now, although Mr, Liggett owns his farm, on account of the condition existing, he can do nothing with it until, through’ due process of law, the title is quicted, Inthe mean time all parties are waiting for “Granger” to turnup and call for his deed, which was left for record. Without this document his knavery will have accomplished himnothing. Therecorder has been notified to hold the deed and should a claimant appear he will be put where more questions can asked of bLim than he will feel like answering. ——e RAILROAD RACKET. A Decrease in Passenger Traflic—Offi- cial Changes--Other ltems. “There has been a great decrease in pas- senger trafic on all western roads during the past sixty days as compared with the ic time last year,” remarked General Pas- senger Agent Eustis of the B, & M. yesterday “Why is this thus, you say! Well, I will explain. One year ago every small town in Nebrask, Kansas and Colorado had a real estate ‘boom.’ Land that w as acre property during the previous summer was divided nto town lots and an exces valuation placed thereon. No man west is without eastern friends and one and all wrote letters back to their old acquaint- ances, nforming them of the situation. In consequence thousands of people came from the east seeking an investment for their sur- plus cash. This year it is different. The matter is settled, and business is on a more substantial basis, The ‘balloon’ business has died out, and values ave steady, conse- quently there are not so many speculators as before, While the railroads are not doing as large a business the country is more pros. becuuse of this fact. I am not sure er, but that the decrease n pa is more thau made up by an in the volume of freight business.” OFFICIAL The following chax nounced by the Union I taking cffect yesterday: assistant superintendent division with headquart assigned to the W th had: quarters at Ewmcrson, "Toohey, Uasiatant of tho Wyoniing Aivision, {8 trais ferred to the Nebraska division with head quarte orth Platte.

Au agent of one of the lines carryiry stock tasud - from South Omaba’ was seen ygs- acific w. of the terday and in reply to a question as to how the B. & M. businoss was prospering at the stockyards, replied that it was declining daily. That since the strike the B. & M. has shipped very few cars of stock, and has in order to keep up appearrnces sealed empty cars labeled ‘‘fresh meat,” taken them to pomts in Towa, and 'then sent them back, The business of other roads has constantly been on the increase the Milwau- kee showing an_ increase of at least 33 per cent, the Rock Island 40 per cent while the Northwestern was 50 per cent for March, compared with February and one car of meet to spare. ~ Yet everything is ‘‘running smoothly," 8PIKES, The sixth anniversary of the founding of the town of Wymore will be celebrated May 21.

Alliarce is the ‘end of the track, - A Modest Demand. New Youk, May 1.—([Special Telegram to the Bre.)—Dr. Charles E. Simmons, of No. Lexington avenue, has brought suit against the executors of the estate of the late Samuel J. Tilden to recover pay for his ser- vices as Mr. Tilden's pt an. The modest sum of £143,000 is the value at which he esti- mates those services. Only the lump sum without any particulars is given. Tho exe- cutors ask a bill of particulars and their law- yers moved that such a bill be ordered, An argument on the motion was adjourned until Wednesday. Tilden's physician lives in a magnificent brownstone at the corner of Fifiy.ninth strect and Lexington avenue, and has one of the most lucrative pract that medical neighborhood. He put in hm bill once before for the same amount estimated that Dr. Simmons must have v ited Tilden every day at $100a visit for four years, giving him the benefit of a leap year every twelve months, —— Don’t delay, cure your cough with Dr. J.
