R ————— THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: W iDNESDAY MARCH 6, 1839 THERE IS WAR IV SIGHT, Pastor Minehart Determinoed to Con- quer or Die Trying. LINCOLN TO TAN The District Court Disposes of Im- portant Business—The Oficial Examiner of Pharmacists ~General Notes, ITS HIDES. 1029 P Stred LiNooLs, March 5 The trial of Pastor Minehart, of Grace Methodist Episcopal church, is near. Rev. J H. Presson, of Seward, 1n whosa hands rests the prosecution, arrived to-day. Itis learned that the formal charges huve boen preferred, but Tre Ber representative has been unable to obtain them. Aud, possibly, the reading public will never know what their peculiar wording may be. The church seems determined that the matter, 8o far as possible, shall be kept within its pales, It is suficient to know, how ever, that Tne Bre has given the basis and substances of the charges in auestion, viz. Bearing false witness against members of his flock, teaching doct variance with those ncorporated in th churcii discipline from the pulpit, unpasto; conduct and the unbecoming use of language Laxncorx Bureau, or Tar Omana Ban, % ina general way. It 18 understood that brother is arrayed against brother in this controversy. About forty of the members of the church stand or fall with Minehart. Tiice that number are said to be determmed to rid the church of its obmoxious pastor and the doctrine of sanctification. Minehart now openly states that he proposes to carry the fight on until it ecizes upon some members promi nently identified with St. Pauls. In th Iangiiage of some of his parishioners, “he is determined to conquer or come out first bost, no matter what the cost.” The oxact dats of the trial hus not yot_been decided upon, but it is known that the ermtic pastor 15 ready for the melee, and it 1s likely to com- mence at any moment. His formal answer will probably be ready before the dawn of another day. ATimely Suggestion, What have you for tho pross to-da quer- fed Tur: Beg man of Doputy Secretary Cow- dry this morning. “Nothing particular,” he replied, *but I would like to suggest that the legislature ap. proaches adjournment, and I would like to have the newspapers of the state commence to send in their accounts. While there isn't much danger of us having to Yy them over a year or two, we want to close them rp as soon as possible, and t won't cost much of an_effort for editors aud business managers of newspapers to add the “time to run’’ to accounts as ' they now stand and send them in. We will take it as a fuvor and they will get their money” all the sooner. I can't soe that the press boys of the state necd to kick when ‘daddy dollars’ arc thrown at them in this way.” In the District Court. Tn the Truster vs The Missouri Pacific railway case, the jury found for the plaintiit in the sum of &,100, and thus ends the great trial of the term. It is said that the plaintiff 16 greatly disappointed at tinding of the jury. A, . Field and a jury noxt tried the case of Michael Bowden vs Louis Jensen, In this case defendant was the contracting builder of the Wesloyan University, and plaintiff nad taken from him the doing of the stone work in the basement. Plaintiff claimed a valance for laying the stone, and 50 which he al- leged to have boen wrongfully detained from him, because he had not_pointed the swre, which he snid he had not agreek to do. De' fendunt’s case was that the plaintiff had so awrced, and ulso ho claimed that he had paid him fully on a settlement for the work he bad done. The case was given to a jury at neon, A Bonanza For Lincoln. A month or two ago Tur Bek mentioned, in a casual way, that a move was on foot to establish a tannery for the purpose of tanning and drossing skins for the manu- facture of glovy robes, the finer class of boots and shoes, and other articles of the finer kinds It is intended that skins shall be dressed or tanned, with or without the hair, cqual to any of the grades in flexibility and fineness manufactured i the European countries. Mr. A. Le Gros, anold Enghsh munufacturer, a specialist in the art of tan ning leathers, will have the immediate super- vision of the enterprise after the buildings have been fitted and works cstablished, The Bare half of the Bare & Lamaster block, 1327 O street, bas been leased for the store, ware and manufacturing rooms, and it is said that it will be fitted und ready for business on or before May 1. Le Gros and Gerge E. Bigelow are the resident gentlemen interested n the enterprise. It is learncd, however, that a party of English capitulists have interested thomselves i the matter, aud will contribute largely to insure its suc- aung” of men commenced to build laines’ branch,” which empties 1t creck, west of the city, to furnish the necessary power and water for the needs of the tannery. 'This may be put dowa as an enterprise that promises much for the future of the capitul of the state. Organization pa- pers will be filed in the oftice of the secretary of state in a few duys.

The board of county commissioners 1s still dlvided on the question of tha extras on the vault in the office of the clerk of the district court. Commissioner O'Keeffe proposes to have an investigation, but Mount and Ander son, it appears, are fighting hard against it. Ask them what they proposs to do and their answer invariably will be, “We don't know.” O'Keeffe has been making strenu ous efforts to have the balcony in the vault measured and its cost estimated by an ex pert, But thus far he has not succeeded. Christ Specht and Gustave Anderson scem 10 be the only experis on that kind of work Omaha, and both of them refuse to act. The matter was roferred three wecks ago to & _special _commit tee of which O'Keeffe is chairman, but so far as can be learned that committes has not taken much action as yet. Mount and Anderson, it appears, antagonize the idea of employing an expert, though O'Keeffe says ho proposes to have onn 1f he has to bring him here from Chicago and pay the bill out of hus own pocket. He contends that they have admitted spending £500 too much on the job and is anxious to seo what they propose doing towards getting that money back. In an_interview, Turner made the statement that £500 in excoss of the actual cost had been paid to Pauley, and said the latter must either refund it or forever be barred from compoting for Douglas county work. Mr. Mount afterwards said the inter- view was correct, but he manifests no anxiety to have the matter looked mto or adjustgd. At the meeting last Saturday, when O'Keeffe asked what the board proposed to do in the matter, Turner movel to adjourn and the motion prevailed. In this manner the investigation was staved off, . “How long is this thing going to continue?” asked a taxpayer yesterday, O'Keeffe has char ged that the balcony in the vault cost £1,500. Ho s t lie can show that it would be dear 0w why was 1,150 of the county's money over and above was required paid for it. Some of the commissiouers admit having paid 500 too much, Who authorized them to pay one cont above the actual cost! If they have paid £00 too much why may they not hav $1,130 or oven $1,200 too much, as O'Keflo charges! If they havn't “done as is allowed by O'Keoffe, why don't they put themselves forward as denying his charge and_proving it to be unfounded! The fact is that thus far, they have cvaded all attempts at inve tigation. In this way they have led pecple to believe that they are afraid to meet the charges, Can Commissioners Mount, An- derson, Turner and Corrigan allow this im- pression to become general? The people will not stand it. If these commissioners are un- willing to make a showing in this case, it will not be long before a move will be made in the courts w compel themn to give an ac: count of their stewardship.” There is a number of rumors flying around about members of this county board which, it is likely, will be appreciated by the mem! bers when they are traced and found to be well founded. - - California Cat-R-Cure.

One R. H. Howard, who lives next door to the Hemmings appeared in court with his wife in the roleof intermeddler, and was promptly and justly sat upon by Judge Berka, who intimated that he was us bad as the boy, and notified him to keep still.

MR. PULLMAN HAS A CRIP, How it is Fastened to the Cheap Sleeping Cara, ICE KNOCKING BRIDGES OUT, Union Pacific Will Bu Diego—Personal Notes Goasip of the Rail- way World. Toe 14 to San and . How Pullman Got Control. The inside deal in which Pullmanobtained possession of the second class sleepers on the transcontinental lines has at last leaked out, Pullman has a contract with the Union Pa- cific, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and North ern Pacific for the exclusive operation of the sleeping car service on theso roads. The companies put on second class sleepers and did not regard that it was an infringement of the Pullman contract and, although the second class sorvice had been in vogue for a considerablo length of time, Pullman offered no objections, Finally, it occurred to him that the industry must be a paying one, and turning to his_contracts he learned thit no cluss was specifiod, and that he had the ex- clusiva franchise. ' Arming himself with the contracts he made a demand ou the various roads for the turnine over of the second elass conchies. The latter could not do othe wise and in consequence, without hesitanc the Union Pacific ahd the Santa Fe at once complied. ~ Yosterday information was re- ceived at Union Pacific headquarters to the effect that the Southern Pacific had re- linquished to Pullman its ond class ser- vice, and that also the Northern Pacitic would conclude similar uegotiations in a few days. THROUGH TO THE COAST. The Union Pacific Will Build to San D:ego. The Union Pacific has at last gained an en- trance to the Pacific coast, and its terminus will be San Diego, Cal. About six weeks ago the San Diego, Cuvamaca & Bastern road voted to issue §7,500,000 in first mort- wage bonds for the purpose of developing its system, This road 18 a California enter. prise, and the fact that this step was taken led to considerable conjecture in railway circles. It now transpires that the corps of civil erigineers which was dispatched from the headquarters of the Union Pacific some time ago was sent to this section of the coun- try and has now completed a survey for aline from San Diego connecting with the present terminal of the Utah Central. the latter being a portion of the system of the Union Pacitic. The Utah Centrai connects with the Union Pacific proper at Ogden, and by the construction of the road to San Diego the latter will have an_indenendent line be tween the Missouri river and tae Pacific const. The line will requira the construction of 350 miles of track. The offeials of the Union Pacific were reticent when questioned concerning tx matter. General Mau- ager Kimball, however, admitted that such a project Was under way, but requested that vice president Holcomb be seen. Further inquiry developed the fact that J. S. Cameron, first ussistant to President Adams, had constmuiated the deal with the Cal nia company and that the work of cons tion would soon be commenced. Hel tofore, the Union Pacific _had been compelled to operate jointly with the Southern Pacific, connecting with that road at Ogden. Itis no secret that considerable trotble was the result for the reason that the Union Pacific had a strong competitor, the Burlington, which required extra accommodations as regards faster ser- vice, through coaches and direct connection with the const trains. The Southern Pacific paid but little attention to the requests of the Union Pacifie, and in_consequence the new outiet has resulted. When the new line is built, sub-genaral ofices of the Union Pa- cific company wiil be located at San Diego. Bridgés Carricd Away. The Platte river has broken loose from its moorings and has agam played sad havoc with the railroad bridges that span the streau. Atalate hour Tuesisy night the bridge at Columbus on the Burlington gave away to the pressure of ice, and the structure, which is about two thousand feet long, together with the approaches, was washed away. The ice began moving in the stream about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The Burlington Dbridge gave out shortly before midnight, and only five minutes after a heavy freight tramm d crossed it. The bridge was built on piers and was about, ten feet above high water mark. The Union Pacific has abandoned its bridge that crosses the Platte river at Valley and reports received at headquarters to the effect that a large amouut of ice is gathered there and the probability is the bridge will be torn away also. This structure is also a pier bridge and, together with approaches, is 4,000 feet long. The bridee proper is 2,107 feet in length, Although it is ten feet above the standard of the river, it was reported submerged this morning. The company are endeavoring to keep the ice ng. Superintendent Ressequ. f the ska division of the Union Pacific left for the scene and was yesterday at work endeavoring to save ' the structure. Yesterday ~morning the Union _Pacific ran all its trains over the Missouri Facific between Papilllion and Lincoln and the Burlington angements to run its trains over the Union Pacifle between Columbus and Central City. The Burling- ton bridge on the Columbus branch which gave away will entail a loss of about 325,000 ‘The threatened structure of the Union Pa- cific is valued at 875,000, A Duluth Tarifr. Yesterday the Burlington put in agrain tariff to apply between Omaha and points in Nebraska and Duluth, The tarifl is the same as that on Chicago shipments. Heretofere, the Burlington had no tariff applying on Du! luth shipments, and the rate which now cov- ers Duluth was made only to St. Paul and Minneapolis, Tie rates on grain under the new system to Duluth will be from - Omaha 20 ceuts, Lincoln 22 cents, and Kearney and points in the western grain belt 25 cents, the same being the rate to Chicago from the given points, Has It Collapsed? 1t is stated that the organization recently i Omaha that assumed the high- sounding title of ““General Freight Agents" has sunk into “innocuous'desuatude.” Tues. a meeting was to have been held for purpose to discuss the question of live stock trains, but, for some unaccountable s0n, only two of the agents were present Railroaa Notes, B.

It is Pronounced Botha Pest-House and a Death-Trap. Messrs. Spore, Wehrer and Sholes, the committee appointed by the board of educa tion Tuesday night to investigate into the condition of the Hartman school on South Six- teenth street, will certainly find a rich field for their labors. ‘fhe buildings were thor oughly examined, and found to be in a do plorable condition and wholly untit for the purposes for which they are used. They stand on a_lot extending from Eif- teenth to Sixtecnth streets, near Williams, and the main building, which is in_tolorable repair, 18 two-story brick structure with basement and contains twelve rooms, It was originally a two-room building, but eight or nine years since was enlarged to nine rooms, while an anuex of three stories, a singld room to cach story, was erected immediately in its rear. There are_now in the neighborhood of fiy tundred children attending classes inthese buildings, and out of tho nine rooms in the main building only the four front ones are fit for school purposes. In the coustruction of the building no attention whatever could have been paid to hygienic or sanitary cffect There is absolutely no ventilation, other than that obtained by throwing open the low windows and allowing the cold winds to blow over the bare heads of tne little children, and this must be done_to avoid suffocation, even in thecoldest weather The basement rooms wiih their seven and onc-half foot ceilings, are damp, dark and musty, and the stench that permeates every noolc and eranny, when the little ones hud dled together, is Sometning simply appaliing- Tho mephitic'atmosphere of the police court 18 the breath of Arabia in comparisou, and it 18 uo wonder that so many of the hitle pu pils, to be seen here, are wan and weakly, in poor health. “Itis surely criminal noglizence on the part of the educational board and the parents, too, to allow this condition of things continu longer,” a_gentleman who assisted in the iuspection this morning remarked to he reporter, as theyv ioft the building. But this is not the worst feature about the school buildings, and if a catas traphe, which would exc>ed in horrors the Farnam street ealamity, would be averted immediate attention to this matter is impera tive. The so-called anuex, n miserable sholl, is a veritable death-trap. 'To-day it o inits three rooms. something over o dred and fifty pupils, and so dungerous is the structure consldered by MissWhite,the princi pal, that at the appreach of every ' storm, or the'spriaziiz up of a sudden strong wind, sha calls all of the pupils out ofthese rooms and crowds them'into the main building until the danger has passed. The annex is threo stories in height, the lower sto I and the two upper stories wre of 1t is built about a large fam or chimuey, and waich is evidently its maistay and su in every room tie walls have shrunk aw. from this jam, and left gaping fissuros athwirt them to the ceiling, wiving the building an aspect of uncortainiy ilat to_ iuspire fear in the expericnc mind. ~ The lower story has b braced at each covner with iron rods, but as to their eficiency there mch doubt ®ud the one avenue of safety is in the aband onment and demolition of the whole miser- able affuir. Every hard wind rocks the building, and duving the windstorm which wrought such disaster a month since upon Farnam street so decided was the swaying of this annex that school clocks upon the walls of the upper room stopped. This, too, it is smid, occurréd once or twice before. Another thing shouid be said_about these buildings. They are totally inadequate to accommodate the school children of the Hartman division, anc present time, one of the grades, embr: y children, is compelled to oceupy a neighboring store room which has been temporarily rented for this purpose. Miss White says that after the spring c: ions the number of pupils will be greatly auzmented, and she is ata loss to know wiiat is to be dc —— Everything which belongs to pur healthy blood is imparted by Hood's Sarsaparilla.
