e — AN NI v s mriny T FEBRUARY 15 ALMOST LIKE A ROMANCE. The Story of An Unhappy Married Lifo. FIGHTING FOR A LITTLE GIR Bome Cases of Interest In the District Court w ¢ panies Yormed ~General and sonal Notes, Lrncors Bureav or Tre Owana Ban, 1020 P Staeer } L1 14, The Saunders Lindsay habeas corpus case, pending in the supreme court from Webster county, has an interestin if not romant history, that hias not been given to the pnb. Yic. About twelve years ago Samuel Saun ders, now of Red Cloud, this state, met Emma Lindsay, onaboat known as the “Floating Palace,” on the Mississippi below Bt. Lous, and an unintance was formed that ripened into affection and marriage. At the time Emma bore, it is said, a reputation not altogether unquestionable, but she was pretty, winsome and ladylike in her bearing, and Saunders though he could_see moro of the good in her than bad, and that under proper mfluences she would reform prove an exemplary and faitnful wife. Zaith was 8o strong that the vows wi ledged that made them husband and wife fll.m-w CoLN, Feb. afterward they soucht shome ~ in cd Cloud,” where all went well for a time. Longing for the lifo of other days, however, came and the wife and mother” (fora child had been born to them) suddenly left an apparently happy home and wont to Minnesotawhere, it is stated, she ngain cntered upon a life of shame. After a Iapse of several months, the exact time un certain, she returned to Red Cloud, having securcd a divorce and married one Geore Lindsay, with. whomsshe now lives. il er she came n contact with little Mable Saunders, the fruit of her first marriage, who was living with her grandparents. just across the Kansas line, south of el Cloud. The littie girl was never denied a visit from her mother, andoccasionally the grandparents of the child would take her with them on a_shopping trip, and while in Red Cloud would permit her in turn to visit hier mother, Mrs. Lindsay, but this happened once too often, and & few' months ago little Mable found that she was restrained of her Yiberty, and was denied the privilege of re. turning home with her grandparents. This has led 1o litigation, and the following order of the supreme court in the case of the state ex rel. Samucl Saunders vs Emma Lindsay, made this morning, will give the situation of the mutters at this date: To il C. Scott, count ehraska: It having be appear by the afidavitof G, R. Chaney to the satisfaction of this court, that you have left the child, Mabie Saunders, in the care, gustody, and under the entive control of the relator, ' Emma Lindsay, since the former order of the court dirceting you to take said child from her, said care, custody and con- trol. You are therefore o nd directed to take said child, Mable , from the care and custody of the said Emma Lindsa) and keep her entirely from her possession and control and from under her influence, during the pendency of this action. You are further ordered to keep said child in your owa custody and under your own control, and keep her also from the care, custody and control of the relator and from her inflience. That if it is not convenient for you to keep said child during the pendency of this suit, you report that fact to the court for further orders concerning its care, custody and con- trol.

General Manager Kimball Views it as a Dangerous Undertaking The attention of the railway world, it 18 snid, is directed to the United States senate, where Reagaa's uniform classification bill is In Omaha the merits and de- merits of the bill have baen discussed by the traffie manipulator 1 aill agres that to pass the bill in its p condition will be perpetrating a gross injustice on the rail roads and commerce of the country. The weneral opinion is that should the bill incor- pors f classes with a uni- form \tion, some good must result, bu of this, there should be a proviso illowing the railtoads to handle cortain freizhts on @ commodity tariff. Geueral r Kimba of the Union P questione: concerning the mat said: I have not had an_oppor tunit to inspe the bill i its original form. ButI will say that there 18, and always will b, reason for takine out freimt, of classification, and handling it on u commodity tariff. 1 am heartily in favor of a regular classification and the less num. ber of lasses the better without infringe ment upon any industry. Butto talk about 8 uniform classitication making your classes aplicable on all roads alfke regardiess of the quality of freight, would be downright nonsense and if this'is embodied in the Rewan bill, as is genorally understood, it is a matter that the ralrouds cannot and will not stand, and the public generally will revolt against such an undertaking. As 1 have said, in order to do justice to the majority in handling the freight traflic there must be & commodity tariff aside from that of the class ification. “For instance, we will say the rain traf ‘or some roads this is the chief traftic, while for others it is but a small percentage. Now, 18 it reasonable to suppose that a railway company can afford to handle freight in cir lots as cheap as the road that handies it by train loads, This is the same all over in any business, the largzer mo of business you have with the mer- chant the better prices will be made you,and th volume of traflica road has’ the cr the rates given the shippers, therehy fitttn the larger portion of the com: munity. 13y operating under the proviso then a road that would handle but a small per centof the grain traflic, or any other class of freight, could bill it as a commodity independent of the classification rates. Several other individuals whoare considered good authority on matters of this kind when questioned concerning the actual measurement of the Regan bill, gave ex pression to their opinion substantiaily the same as did Mr. Kimball now pending ca loss number classifi onts An Unfounded Report, statement published i morning paper to the effcct that Superintendent Res- scquie was showing undue favoritism in tho promotion of train men, is pronounced a fabrication. Assistant General Manager Dickinson said: *The report is without foundation. The fact is that what changes are made by Superintendent Resscquie are made in carrying out my instructions, I in- ructed him to promote the mel s they re known in the service. In doing 8o, w and that scveral men, who had been with the company but a com- paratively short time, were inour_employ as conductors. They had been put there alicad of old brakemen and men that had been with the Union Pacific for years, and as a fair ness to all T oinstructed him to set the new moa back and put the old men in their places, This hias been done, and while [ have my suy no new man wiil be put alicad of an. old em. ploye of this company, nor will any favorit- ism aside from this' be allowed. I have watched this carefully and will stato that the report to the contrary is unfounded.” Oolorado Traffic Mattors. Genera! Trafiic Manager Mellen, of the Union Pacitic, will leave this evening for Chicago, at which place, to-morrow, a meet ing of the Colorado Trafiic association will be held. At ameeting held in Chicago, of this association, last December, a schedule of rates was agreed upon and with an under- standing that it would expire March 1. The time st for expiration was in view of the pending organization of railway presidents, the members in_attendance at the meeting being of the opinion that the great pool would bo strongly organized by March L. BBut it still lingers, and in_view of this the Colorado_association will mect and extend the time thirty days, during which time stated. the presidents’ agreement will either have been formulated or will go to picces. The Union Pacific Improvements. The Union Pacific will lay about 100,000 tous of steel ruil during the present year all of which is of the seventy-five-pound stand- ard, the neaviest rail manufactured. In Omaha a vast improvement in yard servico is to be made, and & large quantity of side track for switching and storing purposes is to be constructed. Superintendent Resse- quic of the Nebraska division has made a requisition for u quantity of steel rail to be used 1n bullding now sidings and_construct- ing switch tracks along the division. In the upper yurds five new side and cross tracks will be put in and several additional tracks are to be laid for the service that reverts to the lower yards. ‘In yard trackage second class steel will be used., The R. Cable, em Rock lIsland. president of X arrived in city Wednesday night enroute home from Denver. He had but little to say, but itis whispered that ho has been taking a survey of the coast territory with a view of extending bis road in that dircction. Mr. Cable was of the opinion that his lines migit be extended to the coast, but as to whether they would or not he declined to state, beyond the fact that the Rock Island compuny was gradually working that way and might oventually communicate direct with Pacitic coast points, Saving Time in Watering. The time-saving system that was just, in- augurated by the Burlington in locating its water tanks adjacent to stovping points so that while handling baggage and passcagor traftic water for the eagine might be quickly obtained is being adopted by the Union Pa- cifie. Yestorday work was commenced for the laying of a ten-inch water main at the east end of the depot and a similar con- nection will bo made for a stand pipe at the west end, at which place water for the en- gines ou passcnger trains will be suppliod. e water supply for this purposa is located further cast. lowa Freight Rates, ting of the gencral freight agents managers of the lowa roads, pay afternoon.

P. Dictz Tells of the Miraculou Escape of Omaha's Sojourners. 3. . Dietz, of 1002 North Twenty-eighth street, oneof the party of cloven Omahans that was in the Sutheralnd hotel when it was burned, returned to this city yesterday from Florida. He is the only one of the guests who has returned home, and is the first to give acorrect account of the fire. Sutherland, Fla, is a small place, founded by Omaha people, who had erected a large and magnitiicent hotel on the gulf coast in which to spend their winters. The house was built by the Sutherland Land and Im- provement company, of which C. T. Taylor is president. The hotel was conducted by Major Dunham, and in the carly part of January he had completed arrangement to receive the Omaba party which itended to spend the remainder of the winter atthe place, On January 23, the party, consisting of C, T. Taylor, wife and daughter, Dr. Conkling and wife, G. P. Dietz, Mrs. Jesse Lowe, Mrs. Colonel Smythe and daughter, Misscs Kittie and Irene Lowe, left for Sutheriana. The party had been in the house scarcely a week when hotel burned At midnight of the evening of February the conflagration occurred. Within forty minutes. after discovery of the flames the hotel was in ashes. The Sutheriind was built for the accom- modation of about 200 people, but no one in the house at the time of 'the disaster but the O and the attachesof the v . The of the fire is supposed to have been from a dofective hearth in the hire- place of the dining-room, which was located at the east end of the structure. The flames were discovered by Clerk Duey. He retired at 11:30 o'clock, and shortly before 12 was awakened from his sleep by his wife, who told him that she smelled the burning of yel- low pine, of which timber the house was buiit. He dressed himself, and aflter search- ing around the house eutered the dining- room, the entrance of which being near tho fireplace. So soon as he placed his upon the floor a portion of it gave way. This made the opening, and the smouldering pitch pine underneath the hearth and floor was fanned into furious flames, with such vehe- mence that the cierk knew that it would be impossible to save the building. His foot was not injured by going through the floor. He immediately gave the atarm, and ina few moments the building was in flames. Among the first to escape from their peril- ous positions were Mrs, Jesse Lowe, Mrs. Colonel Smythe and hor daughter Edith, The Misses Irene and Kittie Lowe, occupied apartments at the south end of the hotel and were the first called. Frightened and almost horror-stricken they threw on some wraps, grabbed other garments and rushed into the hall. There, the dense smoke almost suffo- cated them. ' It was necessury for a servant to lead them out of the house, else they would not have escaped cremation, 1In the north part of the house were situated Dr. Conkling and wife, C. T. Taylor, wife and daughter, and G. P. Dietz. The latter was the [ast person called. Leaping from his bed he raised the curtain of his window and the first thing that met his fuae was the reflec- tion of the burning building in the waters of the bay. He not excited, but hur- riedly jumped into his pants, and took the rest of his wearing apparel in his arms and made his escape, He encountered the suffocating smoke in the hallway, but well knowing the way, rushed through iv and was soon out. Taylor was the last one who escaped. She remained in her room longer than any- body else, presumably dressing. She was taken off the extreme north end of the build- ing by means of a plank. Had the alarm been given five minutes later all would have perished in the flames, is the belief of Mr. Deitz. When they had finished robing themselves with the wearing apparel they had brought out under their arms, the purty watched the hotel and its contents burn to the ground. There were no means by which to extinguish the fire, and had there been they woulc have been of litle service, for the pitched pine blazed like oiled paper.’ It was scarcely more than a tlash. The loss of the hotel £40,000, but is partially tha amount being §23,000. Maj. Dunhaw’s individual loss is greater thau any other. 1t will reach §.500. The day provious to the fire he had supplied the bouse with #1,000 worth of groceries aud acarload of ice. he eutire loss of clothing abd jewelry belonging to the Omaha party is about 3,00 Mrs. Colonel Smythe lost almost evel thing, Her trunk containing $80, her clothing and jewels, were consumed. Among the jewelry was a diamond braceict which she prized very dearly. It had been given to her by ber now deceased husband, Misses Irene and Kitty Lowe had ele- gant wardrobes with them. These were utterly destroyed Mr. Dietz, had o gold-headed cane which he valued very much. It had becn a birth day gresent from his son Charles N., of St. Paul lumber company. After the fire tho ‘ladies were taken to a store to pass the remainder of the night. Mattresses were spread on the floor and the ladies remaiued there while the men re- mained out in the balmy atmosphere till morning watching the remnants of the once elegant hotel. Then the party, with the ex ception of the Misses Lowe, who were fur- nished accommodations at the home of a Mr. Beverly, builder of the hotel, went to Tarpon Springs, a small village five miles from Suth erlund. ' Mrs, jesse Lowe, Mrs. Smythe and daughtor, will remain at' the springs for a few weeks and go thence to PPhiladelphia, where they expect to spend the summer. Other members of the party wil return to Omaha in & month or s0. It is probable that the Hotel Sutherland will be rebuilt some time the coming sum mer, It is said that Mr. Taylor has had a favorable proposition to reconstruct the l‘;uulm'. and it s likely the hotel will be re- uilt. Mr. Dietz stated that the account of the disaster in the southern papers were very incorrect. All had different and uvreliable reports, Some had it that two persons were cremated; others that the two that were nearly burned to death would die; also that the women were rescued by tearing up bed sheets and dropping from the windows, and that everybody was in dishaville when es- cape took place. Mr, Dietz suys there was nothing of the kind, the anly excitement was among the women, who naturally enough were alnost frighténed to death. Every body was decently clad, and the only great discomfort was experienced by the young ladies who were under a tree crying after they got out of the house. e Beecham's Pills act like magic on a weak stowack, ;I RLAND.

The greatest nterest of the morning ses- sion was centered in Judge Wakele court, where equity matters receive attention. There the really brilliant lawyers congre- gated aud looked dignified and wise and talked to the court in suppressed monotones. “Estabrook vs. McCoy,” called his honor." *“That is getting to be an old acquaintance of mine” he continued, “and I would like to have something done with it”. ~Aun_attorney assured him it was for trial. The court room is so small and the attendance of law- yers was 80 large that they crowded in and stood up. W “Reed vs. the city" ay tiyes" rosponded a gri trial, and yet there is no trial.
