BISHOP NEWMAN WELCOMED. The Methodists of Omaha Groet Their Learned Prelate. THE RECEPTION AT THE CHURCH. Speeches By Governor Thayer, John M. Thurston, Judge Fawcett and the Bishon—The Ban« quet at the Paxton. A Methodist Night. It was a fitting and heartfelt that was tendered Bishop J. B, N the First M. E. church last cvening. o'clock the church was filled by appreciative participants in the weleoming exercises, O the stage, which was beautifully decorated with flowers and vin seated Bishop Newman, Governor ' Hon. John M Thurston, Judge Fawcett, John B. Max- field, presiding clder of the North Nebraska district, Rev. J. W. Shanks, presiding elder of the Grand Island district, Elder T. C Clendenning, who acted as chairman, and other distinguished men of the Methodist de- nomination The exercises were opened by corouation hymn, in which the congregation foined. Wollowing this Rev. Dr. Lemon in voked divine blessing, closing with the Lord's prager, in which, again, the audience Joined The chairman, Rev. T, C. Clende then arose and said that for many days and weeks the Methodists of this part of the country have looked forward to this day, when they could welcome to the great com monwealth of Nebraska, the distinguished divine patriot, Bishop ' Newman, but he would leave it with an abler man to express the feeling with which that welcome was given. Dr. Maxflela was then introduced and said: It is nothing extraordinary to welcome 8 new man to Omuha, for he 18 altogether too numerous, bur we think the Newman has gome at last. We feel overjoyed, Bishop Newman, that the long che hed wish to have you among us s at last fulfilled. When you learn to know these people in the west as 1 do, when you have grasped their hands and feit their heart beat, you will know, as [ do, the deep feeling of gratitude with which our presonce among us is regacded. Your amo is woll known_throughout Methodism, wnd we appreciate, I assure you, the ability and foresight witil which you managed affairs twonty years ago, in connection with that service that resulted in the emancipa. tion of the blacks. But we remember otber things and other deeds with which you have identified yourself, during your useful life. To-night wo remember “your extensive studics and your journeys to forcign lands, where you broadened your culture, and so admirably fitted vourself for that work to which you are devoting your life. We be- lieve your greatest worl has been accom- plished in your many ministrations in_the cause of the church, where your untiring labor and zeal, have accomplished such worthy ends. Let mo say in conclusion, Wel- come to the stato with its broad acres and extensive rivers, welcome to the conference, wolcome to this city of Omaha, whero we frust your future home will be. Judge Faweett followed Dr. Maxfield. He #aia it would be a pleasure for him to wel come nuy bishop to tho state, but. it was an especial” pleasute to welcoms one who had been 80 intimately associated with many worthy decds, and who had been the friend aud confidant'of the soldier and patriot Gen eral Grant. *Your coming among us," con- tinued the judge, “is significant of increasod strength and usefulness in the Methodist church in the west. Methodists are the pio meers of civilization, and indeed in this pio- eership muy be included the saloon also, for t is undoubtedly true that these two institu- tions usually get on the ground at the i:mu time, and, deadly encmies as they are, reception man at At S singing the iing, n the end the saloon usually gets worsted.” ere the judge gave some church statistic rom which he showed that at such a rate of [ncrease, it was merely a matter of time ‘when all the world would be Methodists. “But we have no such awbition. God knows there is enough for all of us to do in keeping ho devil at bay, witlout sceking to proselyte from either church. There was never a time in the history of the world when the chure was 80 effective, and 1ts tenants so well un- g\«-mwod. Again let me say to you, Bishop Newman, that we welcome you to this state nd to this city, and if you do not take up ;our abade among us there shall yet be no Place where you will meet with'a warmer Welcome than'in the city of Omaha." The chairmun then said that it was not the Mothodists uloue who extended this heart reoting, but there were those of oth roods, and those of no particular religio ho shared in this general rejoicing. He hereupon introduced the Hon. John M. “Thurstom. . The distinguished orator was received with applause. He suid he had been assigned the plossant task of welcoming Bishop Newman n bohalf of the citizens of Omaha. Nebraska was Indeed honored to receive a man of such ewinence in all the qualities that make men noble. Coming, as the bishop did, the ac- rodited head of the Methodist church, his Fem of usefulness here in the west was' un- imited. ‘‘Not only has your work for the elurch been productive of much good," said Ahe orator turning toward the bishop, “‘but ‘wo honor you for your work as a statesman nd a patriot, services which have been 8o eelingly refcrred to by those that have pre eded me. In behalf of the citizens of maha and the state, I welcome you, and I ust your sorvices may be such as to make his whole state rejoice that you have come mong us," Governor Thayer was the next gentleman %o extend to the bishop, fitting words of welcome. He said in substance: “About ap_hour ugo I was wending my ay toward the station when 1 was captured y the Kev. House and persuaded to be resent here to-night. I can assure you, riends, that it is with pleasure that [ can say a few words of welcome to such an emi- nent divine as Bishop Newman. We owe uch to Methodism in the way of material rosperity aud high civilization: and it is ith gratitude that 1 recall tho noble service he_church of this denomination performed fn the late rebellion. In this connection I re. fl:“ 180, n remark of Abraham Lincoln to ¢ effect that the churches of the north were e of his mainstays in upholding the Euw. and_especially was he indebted to o Mothodist church for its loyalty and pisression in supporting wnd promulgating he principles of liberty. Bishop Newman, o have met before, aud in circumstances uite differont from these, It was my honor represent the state of Nebraska in the nited States senate, atthe time you were ts chaplain, and I must say the duties in- umbent upon you in the discharge of that ryice, were by no meaus slight, for a body f United States senators need care and watchfulness. Siuce that time it has been my tortuneto be the chief executive of this state, and you have become its bishop. Let 0 unite them with those who have preceded e, in giving you hearty welcome to your ew field of labor, and this 1 do with all my E‘,.n.n #_The speechies of welcome were now con- od all eyes were turned upon the ishop, As he arose and commenced to k, there wasa dead hush. He said: Ladies and Gentlemen : ration for the Methodist iscopal church aud for its oficers and con tituents, and what has been said to me this vening I accept us a representative of this groat church. Tersonally I rejoice in that providence that has placed me in many conditions where I have able to be of use to my fellow men, whether that work has been as a min- rur of the gospel or s a soldier in the field. am glad, too, that I may again be ussociated ith one who was once under my chaplain- fiflp. 1 assure you all that [ can speak in 0 highest terms of his iudustry as a sen stor, and his untiring efforts to promote the fnterests of the state he represented and the oountry at large. 1 regard your present gov- nor L0 be a standing monument to my fidel- y and efiiciency as a chaplain. It is with ure, oo, that | may be ussociated with our illustrious citizen who played such a rominent part in the great national conven- on, which convention would not have been # failure if it bad done mothiug else than $o bring to the frout your orator, ho mow has a national _reputation. iever weary of hearfug the iaudation of the t. Iam reminded by the Rev. Maxfield his reference to this state and city, of a Boston divine who, on Do asked about Europe on his return from that eoun try, replied : “Oh,the United States is thecen tre’ of the universs, and Massachusetts is the centre of it, and Boston is the centre of it, and my church is the centre of it, and 1 ro of L. anty years ago T was in Omaha, but Oh, what an Omaha it was in comparison with what it is now. Indeed, it may be said that there are but three cities in the United States, New York,Omaha and San Francisco. [t may be said that in_the appointment of bishops, fourteen had their choice of places beforo it became my turn, and when it fell to me th choose, Nebraska and Texas were only places left, [laughter], I cb braska. And now ! am among you t what [ can in whatever work lies before While my_chief work is that of a ministe the gospel, I am here also as a citiz rights of which creeds and religion interfere. | shall not state what my politics are, for it would be an uncalled for divul gence.

I have adream that s me thore will be a congress of all the nations of the world, when there will be rep resentative from every nation and every clime, and when the common will ' be considered in the of & common _ brotherhood, may God speed the day. For this pression of your heartfelt” interest in the church, 1 hedrtily thank you, and I can us- sure you that way back in - New York state is & woman who will hear of this o casion with joy and gratitude, a woman, the light of whose countenance, I trust will soon shine upon you. I pray youto receive my blessing in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Rev. Smith, of Conncil Bluffs then nounced the benediction, after which there was an_adjournment to the Paxton hotel, where the bishop was tendered & banquet. ex- pro The Banquet at the Paxton. It was half-past 10 o'clock when a large company sat down to the banqueting board spread at the Paxton in Bishop Newman's honor. Three long tables were white with drapery and resplendent with silver and crystal. Except a few fragrant tlowers in front-of the bishop's seat at the head of the middle table, the only decorations were potted ferns and other plants of their genus, which were ranged up and down the center of each table and filied the shelves about the room, making a_pretty cffect. A dainty luncheon was served by a corpsof waiters, and was dis- cussed with a velish, It was miduight, and in the midst of dessert, when Rey. J.

In Junc, 1836, there was a corporation or- ganized in this city under the name of the Union Depot and Railway company, and by virtue of said organization it was empowered to construct freight and passenger depots and to build railways in and about the city ot Omaha. The incorporators were Mossrs, 8. R. Callaway, A. J. Popple- ton, Thomas L. Kimball, T. M. Orr, and Charles Blackwell, and for the purposc of constructing a union depot it had ac- quired by purchase all the lots in block 175 and 179, at the corner of Ninth and_Jackson streets, excepting lots 2 and 3 in block 175, and likowise obtained from the city the val cation of that portion of Eighth stroct be- tween said blocks for the purpose of perfectng the erection and tho maintenance of a union freight depot thereon. The legal title of lots No. 2 and 8 was vested in the First National bank, but 4. H. Green and John A. Creighton claimed some interest therein. The corpora- tion was unable to agree as to the price on these two lots, or to receive the right of way through them, consequently they petitioned that uppraisers be appointed in order that the company might _Acquire these lots by coudemnation for the purpose heretofore stated. This petition was granted, and the appratsors fixed the price upon said lots at $30,000, and $2,000 for the buildings which stood upon them. The appraised price was paid, and the company took possession of the two blocks in their entirety. There isno doubt but what the specified in the petition genuine one to which territory was to be devoted, for Mr. way had matters so arranged, as to promise 1y materialization of the scheme, but it ns to have fallen through, or has been de- Indefinitely, notwithstanding mer chants and shippers say there is a great de mand for new und additional freight-house facilities and accommodations. The freight house which the Union Pacific and this corporation scews to have been purely a Uuion Pacific project—now uses on Ninth street, is identically the same which they have used for more than a decade. It stands in the middle of the street ana pre sonts a dilapidated and ramshackle appear- ance, and was put there, it is alleged, with- out authority of law. Complaints are numerous enough, which arise from insufticient depot comveniences, and merchants and dealers assert that they are put to incalculable trouble and expense in being compelled to go through six orseven hundred c and the different yards, to find their laden cars,and when they do locate them and have them transferred to a point of un loading they must have them emptied within twenty-four hours _or pay demurrage. They admit that this demur- rage ussessment is all right if it worked both ways, but it don't. Their cars stand in the yards frequently as long as from four to six days, on account of the rfceivers inability to locate or get at them, and this often entails material Joss to them, asit is as likely to occur in a busy season when there is an un- usual demand for certain commiodities other, - Then, when they do find their o they must be unladen within twent hours or suffer the demurrage penalty. ‘This, the interested parties all unite in claiming, goes to show the meritoriousness of the original scheme of the Union Freight Depot company, to_erect a new and commo- dious depot, and they are desirous of learn- ing whether a gorporation acquiring property by condemnation, must or must not, utilize the same for the purposes specifically set forth in the petition of the incorporators?

THE CHARLES A, VOGELER CO., Baltimors, Md, STARTED THE STREET CARS. Baron Yerkes' Lines Being Operated By Scaba. NORTH SIDE STRIKERS QUIET. But Scrious Trouble is Feared Should the West Side Men Decide Go Out This Morning. to The Chicago Strike. Citicaco, Oct, S.—[Special Telegram to Tir Ber.|=The only outward change in the strike of the North side street and cable ¢ men was the running of & few cars on each of the lines under heavy police protection Up to this hour there has been no disturb. ance of any kind, but all hopes of a settle ment or compromise seem very far off, and to-morrow will undoubtedly sce all the West side lines tied up. C. T, Yerkes is also pres ident of the West side company, and most of the stockholders are Philadelphians, al though Yerkes claims that they are not by any means the same as the principal share holders in the North side company. Nearly two thousand men will go out on the West side to-morrow if to-night's programme is carried out, 50 that the army of strikers will in all reach three thousand. Betweou seven hundred and nine hundred policemen were on duty on the North side to-day. Clark street, from Randolph to Division, was brilliant with blue coats and brass buttous, and 100 men patrolied the vicinity of the company’s ofice on Clark and Division ~streets and guarded the power house ou Clark aud Elm streets. Al but a few of the patrol wagons were ordered to Bast Chizago ave- une station, where those not leading the pro cession of Street cars were held in reserve for ull possible coutingencies. Besides the hundreds on patrol duty, some four hundred men were engaged in the not laborous but very chilly task of riding on the open street cars which were sent out by the compuny. Inspector Bonfield maintained a persoval supervision over all the movements of his meu, and was kept constantly advised of the situation and the outlook. Whilo no danger actually threatened, there was the feeling that beneath the apparently peaceful scene there raged a very warlike spirit, whose force might at any time come to the surface, and laughing crowds that thronged the streots turn to an angry, destructive, riotous mob. Some of the officers seem to fear great trouble should the West Side men go out and the company make an attempt 1 send out cars in charge of new men. ‘“There will be a fearful time over there,” said an officer who was riding on the end_seat of an open car, ‘The people on the North Side are not #s pugnacious as some of the boys on the West Side. There dre thousands of younsg toughs on the West Side who are aching for a chance to take & hand in a fight of that kind." The company started to run their cars soon after 6 o'clock this morning. Sunday had been utilized to bring in as much outside help as could be secured from Philadelphia, Pitts- burg and other places, and to enhist such local idle help as was available. With this force at command, estimated at 200 or 300 men, of whom about 100 are from Yerkes' fricadly line in the Quaker €if the com- pany started out to give its pations accom- modation. No attempt was made to start up the grin cars, but all offorts were confiued ~ to the' horse cars, On each car for the greater part of the day might be seen a ariver, a_couductor, ten policemen and a reporter or two, vhe public seeming to prefer to walk or ride in an express wagon to running any risks of possible disturbance. There was a tremendous crowd at the barns when the first cars started, but the crowds were composed mostly of workingmen gund working girls, with a fair sorigkMfng of busi- ness men. The six cars were brought out and the new men greeted with the old de risive cries of *rats,” “scabs,!’ etc., but be- yond that no injury was offcred. 1t 'Was the same all along the route. The new men were yelled and Jeered at, but no one was injured The striiers are evidently settimg back into the harness of their labor organiza- tions, with a stuborn determiuation to hold the position taken by them until the day of of doom, if meed be. Their wain offorts to-day have been directed to dissuading the imported helpers from entered the employ of the company. In this they were comparatively successful, The main _body of the gripmen brought from Philadelphia under the leadership of Detec- tive William Henderson—for whom, by the way, enemies in that city have caused a war- rant to be issued on a criminal charge—took hold promptly to keepthe Chicago ally of the Philadelphia” traciion company out’ of i troubles. Mr. Yerkes, or “I3aron Yerkes," as he is familiarly kuown in Chicago ever since he adopted the customs of the ancient German barons, professes to be well pleased with the progress he has made to-day. “We have had some of our new men bought off by the strikers, but if they intend t continue on this line 1 fancy we can employ new men faster than they can buy them off. Some'of the new men are sent here by the Knights of Labor for the exprsss purpose of quitling work when they get here.” Do you expect the West Side men to strike!” +Oh, I suppose they will." W1 their striking hinges on your making concessions to the North Side men, will they strike " “Yes," “Should the West Side men_strike, would you be able to fill their places?” Yes, and quickly. We have had warning and we'are preparcd for the emergency.

He then received a tele vhone message from Mr. Coyne, asking 1if a committee of seven would be received from the West side street car associatio He re- plied that he would receive the committee, and shortly afterwards Mr. Coyne was an- nounced. *1 at once told him that I could not talk to him alone,” sad Mr. Yerkes, *but would talk to the whole committee with pleasure. T this Mr. Coyne replied that he would have to be talked with, und alone, or the people would see blood flowing in the streets of Chicago.” Coutinuing on the subject of outside inter- ference, Yerkes said: “From what I have lately discovered I am satisficd that George Schilling is at the bottom of all this trouble. Schilling has been mixed up in every labor trouble in this city for a num- ber of years. He bhas been mixed up in all the stock yards strikes, in the West Side strike, in the brewers' strike, and he had to sail close to the wind to keep clear of implication in the anarchist troubles, He was Spies' proxy in the Van Zandt marriage. If the North Side people waat to locate the responsibility for the suspension of street traffic they will not mistake if they pi on the shoulders of George Schilling, an avowed socialist, and, 1 believe, an avowed anarchist. ‘The headquarters of, this man are in the Arbeiter Zeitung ofice, and I have been given to understand that the demands of the men made on me on September were formulated in the Arbeiter-Zeitung office.” To-night at 10:30 p. m, the final decisic to the extension of the strike, or possibl, compromise of the whole matter, was trem- bling in the balance. For an hour and a half the mayor, President Yerkes, and repre- sentatives of the strikers had been in private conference at the city hall, It was thought by those in a position to obtain the best hint of what was going on thata good deal of local and state politics was being mixed up with the issue, and that through Mayor Roche a settlement satisfactory to the men would be arranged. The couference in the mayor's office lastad until after midnight and ended in & disagree ment. - A concession was made by the strik- ers and a concession glollowed slrom Presi- of you old men siguified a de- dent Yorkes. The president wanted & further concession by the men. The strikers declined to baekk down further and tho long conference ended nbruptly. From the may or's office the committee went to & meeting of the Wost Side car men, where fiery specches, advaéating a strike, were being made. Up to 1:23 p. m., however, no definite action toward the extension of the strike in the moruing had been taken A resolution wvas adopted by the city coun cil to-night ordering an inquiry asto whether the North Side,cotpany had not forfeited its cliarter in failing tae run cars during Satur- day and Sundu, - GOING TO WASHINGTON, Prominent Sionx Chiefs En Route to See the Great Father, Prenue, Dak,, Oct, 8.—(Special Tolegram to Tue Bee]—White Swan, Crow slo, Spotted Eagle, Little Bear, Charger, Little No-Heart, Spotted Elk and Swift Bird, Sioux chiefs at Chenenne, with William Larabee id Maricelles interproters, are in Pierr ring to start for Washington to treat th the wreat father on the Sioux bill.

S.—[Special to Tne Bee.] ~Great interest is taken in this vicin ity over the operation of the new liquor law. As registered pharmacists alone can handle the sale of liquor now, and as perwmits can only be granted by the judge of the district court, a great responsibility is put upon him Judge Given, of this district, has so far granted but ten permits for Des Moines. He wrote a long decision, giving his reasons for denying the application of others and grant ing those that he did. He has figured the matter down to a mathematical basis, esti mating just about how many gallons of spirits ought to be used for medicinal pur poses, for compounding medicines and for chemical uses, and divided the am rata, among the population, then figured in the uumber drugyists who would be necessary to supply this demand. He thinks that for the preseut ten distributed over the city would be about the right number. He has refused to grant a permit to any druggist in the same build- ing with a hotel. Several of this kind ap- plied, but Le thinks that such stores openiug into hotels afford means for the illegal sale of liquors, and are likely to lead to violations of law. S0 tho hotel drug store must godry. There is no doubt that several such stores have sold large quantities of liquor for drink- ing purposes right along since prohibition went into effact. (iuests insome instances could send down for all the becr or whisky they wanted. The judge evidently foars thit this practice would be continued and so cuts Off all hotel drug stores without permits. The Minister Was All Right. Des Moixes, la., Oct. 8.—[Special to Tae Bre.]—Several months ago an interesting test case was carried to the supreme court from the district court of Palo Alto county. The case was that of a Methodist minister who had been active in enforcing the pro. hibitory law by securing injunctions against saloon keepers, One of the latter had him arrcsted on the charge that he had voted and has been acting as a citizen when he was not a citizen, cluiming that us he was a_minister under the winerant system of the Methodist church subject to removal at any time by the bishop, that therefore he did not acquire a legral residence at auy place at which he might be stationed. It was a new and rather audacious point to raise, but the supreme court has passed upon it and decided, us was expected, that all ministers are citizens when possessing the ordinary qualitications of citizenship and therefore eititled to vote and prosecute cases the same as any other citizen under the same conditions. ——— Political Joint Discussions.
