JOINING OMAHA TO YANKTON. fhe Tie Between the Two Oitles Being Rapidly Perfected. POLITICS IN THE NEW STATES, Candidates in Plenty, But All of Thenr Apparently Anxious to Be Sonators—Prospects for a Jubllee. Yenkton and Omaha. YANKTON, Dak., April .—(Special to Tre hore and the excitoment is intense. and what ndds 1 tho general interest, nearly all the purchasers are from abroad. Sioux Falls people and parties connected with the Mani- toba road have bought heavily and are still buying. Yankton will furnish right of way and depot grounds, and it is understood the road will positively be extended from Sfoux Falls to Yankton this season, Land from one to three miles out is selling for from £100 0 $300 an acre. Somo of the bauks have opened to-day (Sunday) to allow persons from a distance to put up mouoy on contracts. The motor line to run out Douglas avenue, several miles to the northward will bo com- menced immediately, and enough track will be laid to take in the two depots and the hotels and principal business streots. Omaha is not only interested in th ing of a road from Washington to Y 80 08 to secure a direct connection with this city, but your people will be largely bene- sited by the oxtension of the Northwestern road from Yankton to t’ierre, which exte sion will surely be made 80 soon as the tal shall be located at Pierre. In this nection the following article, taken from the Yankton Telegram of yester will be of intarest to the people of Omaha “Yankton to Picrre—should the capital be Iocated at Ficrre it will force the Northwest- . ern railroad company to build from Yankton to Pierre immediately, and such road will be, worth more to Yankton than all the castern lines that can be built. And this would be followed by & line also paralleling the river on the south side, both of which would open vast sections of country to Yankton's en- terprising jobbers and manufacturers, and pl#o add iminensely to the retail trade. In fact no city in the territory will be more benefited by the coustruction of such roads und the opening of the Sioux reserva- tion than Yanlkton, and the building of the roads will be sccured and hastened by the location of the capitol at_ Pierre, and as soon ps such location is assured a road will bo built, with all possible speed, from Pierre to the Black Hills, thus giving us a direct line up the river via Pierre and through the coun- try to be opened to settiement from the Sioux réservation to the Hills country and throngh to the Pucitic const. The river towns will bo the best, aud as _Yankton will not enter tne fleld for the capital, it is obvious that our in- terest lies in the direction of Pierre. And, besides, Piorre is central and ought to have it. Omaha's best fleld ‘for trade is along the Missouri river, and if railroads can be ex- tended along each side of tha river, over 300 miles of the rich Missouri valley, above vour city, will contribute to Omaha's pros- perity, and 80, Omaha_is as much interesto in these extensions as Yankton is. ‘I'bat the capital will be voted to Pierre, there can scarcely be a doubt. The Two Dakotas. Brswanck, N. Dak., April 8.—[Special to Tue Bee.|--All interest now centers in tho approaching constitutional conveations in North and South Dakota. Governor Mel- lotte will issue his proclamation April 14, the date designated in the congressional en- abling a( and every locality is represented At the capical by voliticians who desire to have their counties so districted that they may control the eclection of the delegates. The districting 1s done by the governor, chief justice and territorial secretal for over two weeks the chosen repr tives of thesc ofticials h: been busiiy en- gaged in .tae details of the work, coupled ‘with the constitutional convention fights and inseparable from them are the struggles for the control of the firat state legisiatures and the subsequent election of United States sen- ators, In South Dakota the go norship ques- tion is virtually scttied. All factions of the republican party united in support of Arthur C. Mellette, the present governor of the ter- ritory. He was elected governor of South Dakota under the Sioux Falls constitution several years ago and now that he has re- celved the appointment as governor to serve until statehnod is achieved by the two Dakotas the people of the southern state agree thay he shall be given a vote of confidence by an eloction to the exocutive chair of the soon- to-be new state. Another question that is as good as settled is that Gordon C. Moody. of Deadwood, will be one of the United States senators. This a conceded. He bas stood shoulder to ‘shoulder with Meliette in the fight for divi jon; he has been the recognized leader in the fight, and, although opposed by bitter enc- mies—the necessary outgrowsh of his posi- tive character and uncompromising course— he has the support of the great majority. As 1o the other sonator and the numerous minor offces, incluaing the congressmen, all are at soa, and it 1s impossible at this tinie to make o prediction. for North Dakota, nothing is settled. ““Who will be the first governor?” you ask. Go ask the wild, wild waves. It is indeed a conundrum, In fact, there are no candidates aunounced or in the field, unless you consider Alfred Dickey, of Jamestown, a candidate. 3o was an applicant for the territorial gov- arnorship, now held by Mellette, but with the score of other candidates he was lost in the pureo. There are no candidates for governor, but an army of ambitious, struggling, jostling, whispering and wire-pulling aspirants for the United States senate. It begins to look as if North Dakota would have a difficult task to find men who will condescend to serve her 1n the eapacity of governor, or as plain, plain everyday congressman. They all went to be semators. In this, the Bismarck district, the shree most l.'ll)mlnsnl candidates reside—or will be resid- ng a8 800N As they all got here. They are: Ex-Governor Pierce, who was appointed to the governorship of the territory by Pres:- dent Arthur, and served nearly two years under President Cleveland. At the time of his appointment he was the Washington cor- respondent of the Chicago News. He is shrewd and popular, Anothier equaliy prom- inent candidate is Alexander Hughes, who was appointed attorney general by Governor Ordway, and has served two terms in the upper branch of the legislature from this district, Ho is a good lawyer aod has the friendship of strong men in the wrrlwrr. The third candidate to come into the field and to be credited to Bismarck, s ex- Governor Ordway, who since retirin from the executive ohair bas been in busi nesf in Washington, though retaining his residence in Bismarck. Ordwi ppoar- suce in tho contest disarranges all the plans of the politicinns, for he Is backed by the men upon whom Hughes was depending for support, and will take some strength from Piorco. He is now en route to this city, and ®5 5001 48 ho arrives the row will begin. ‘L'his is the Hght upoa which all else hinges. Tho constitutional convention, the first state legislature and everything of a political na- ture will be shaped with a viow to the elec- tion of United States senators, for the can aidates are deterwined upon testing their re- speckive strength at every step, The d crats are uot exhiviting any great intorest in the senatorial fight,although they are organizing for am effort to elect & state tiokot. in South Dakota they are in & hopeless minority, they bave buoyed themselves to the beliof that in North Da- ta there is @ possibility of winuing. The counstitutional conventions in both North Dakota and South Dakota will con- veue July 4, the North at Bismarck aud the South at Huron, The South Dakotans have extended an invitation to Sunset Cox o be present, and it 18 understood that ho has ac- and will be given a grand reception. “S'he people of the North first made the prop- osition to nvite Cox but tne Southorners stole & waroh by extending the invitation. In Mismarck the convening of the conven- tion on JuILQ will be made brilliant by a glorious celebration, for which the people are already prepering. Some of the prominent SRR Wi b YR o e presokt, wud ll:n oity will be ablaze with Fourth of July glory. The new states will go into the union with flying colors, Yankton Affairs, YaNKTON, D. T, April 9.—|Special Tele- gram to e Ber.]—The United States dis- trict court closed to-day and the jurors were discharged.

The buildings were filled with au al- most indescribable variety of general mer. including a large quantity of oil, ., and frequent oxplosious served alike to Intimidate the firemen and causo a rapid spread of tho flames. Standing on tracks within the structure were about forty freight cars, many of them loaded, and_ail were destroyed before they could be removed to a place of safety. A portion of the large building was used as a grain elevator, and in it were stored from 80,000 to 40,000 bushels of grain and a large quantity of flour. Tho fire is still burning, though under control, and it obably be many hours before the fire- s work is completed. It is impossible to correctly cstimate the loss, but officials aflirm that it will aggrogate 500,000, upon which there is considerable insurauce. i ied simoy The lnter-State Commission. CirrcaGo, April 9.—The first meeting of the Inter-state Commerce railway association since A. F. Walker was chosen as its chair- man, was held to-day.

The Memoirs of the Occasion Re- viewed in Story and Song. The twenty-fourth anniversary of the bat- tle of the Appotomas, at which General Loe surrendered to General Grant, was celo brated last night by Custer post of -the Grand Army of the Republic. Among the prominent speakers was Colonel Savidge who, after referring to the feeling of sympa- thy and friendship that existed in the army, said he never saw any of the old soldiers and never willsee any of them huve such a camp fire as they had in the wilds of North Carolina. He related the experience of some of the offfcers who were quartered in a little vacant house at that time, 'but,” saia he, “‘the commissary was around as usual, and in protty d spirits,” At that time the mon felt that it would not be very long before they would hear the prattle of children at home and once more moot those thay knew and loved, That was twenty-four years ago, still it seemed almost like last night to look back on that little regiment, Still it is tventy-four years, and half that little regiment had gone. Twenty- four years more and half of those present, if notvall, would be gone and the others who might be left, would be wrinkled and gray. Still, i the flag should ever again be in danger,” con- cluded vhe general, “eith from within or from without—God grant it may never como from within, and God grant it may never come from without—I hope those sull living will assist in brineing about the good re- sult broug ht about twenty-four years ago.” Several other Grand Army men made brief svecches, after which the regular army rations were served. DEATH IN A WELL. The Sad End of Knud Nelson, a Well Known Citizon, Knud Nelson, a contractor who resided at 2304 Davenport street, was drowned yester- day afternoon at 4 o'clock by falling into a cistern. He was fifty-seven years of ago, and was quite wealthy for a man who has made his money by hard lavor, Nelson had been an invalid for the past year, and yes- terday was his first day out in the air, He had also been a well xsz(ur before he be- came a contractor, and his impulse upon going into the yard was to look into the cis- torn, During his year's illuess he was sub- joct to fits of dizziness. As soon as he raised the wooden cover from over the cistorn one of these fits attacked him, and he went head- long into the water and was drowned. At first it was reported that he had jumped into the cistern with the intention of com- mitting snicide, but such was not the case, as Coroner Droxel made an investigation aud will not hold an inquest. AMUSEMENTS. The programme announced for the Albani eoncert at Boyd's opera housc, last evening, attracted a fashionable and eritical audicnce. The attendanco was, naturally, confined to those admiring and cultured in music, and gratification waited upon patronage. It is unnecessary to say that thero is but one living Patti, and the marvellous accom- plishments cf the wonderful casta diva were not looked for in last evening’s star. But Madame Al ustly be ranked second only to the Patti in the realms of music. All the numbers assigned her were splendidly rendered and commanded encores, notable among which was_‘‘Home, sweet home." Mr. Barrington Foote, the baritone of the troupe, and Mr. Bacrett, the flutist, made their way speedily to the highest esteem of the audience; Miss Grace Damion, charming cor.tralto, also made a most excel- lent impression.

Frightful Death of a Little Lad Under the Wheels, Johnnie, the little soven-year-old son of Mrs. Mary Maloney, met with a fearful death while playing near his home at the foot of Duvenport street, at6o'clock last evening. The little fellow, as was the custom of the lads in that neighborhood. was playing on the tracks of the Union Pacific. He was down on his knees behind a freight car when another car was thrown down on the sido track, striking the car by which he was playing. Thoe boy started to run but was knocked down and fell across the rail, the car wheel passing over his body, cutting him in twain. Mus. Maloney, who saw the acci- dent, carried her dying boy into the house, where in a few minutes he breathed his last. Coroner Drexel wus notified and will hold an inquest this morning.

The abstract of bids, furnished by tho board of public works was again read by the clerk for tho benefit of the council. Mr. Wheeler then discovered that it was the separate awards of the board of public works that he wanted read. The clerk then started in on the list when Mr. Lowry stopped him and had the report of the committee read again. Mr. Lowry read a few chapters from the city charter and written address in which he questionod the right of the board of public works to receive bids for paving that were not made in ac- cordance with the specifications adopted by the council. He alleged that the specifica- tions had not been prepared by the board of pnblic works and the city engineer as provided by she charter, The city attorney gave iv as his opinion that there was no competition where each contractor made his bids on his own specifications, al- though he had not seenthe documents. Mr. Wheeter then moved that no awards made by the board of public works be approved by the council except those that were awarded on the specifications of 1883, The whole business was finally referred to the city attorney to report on the legality of the propositions at a meeting to be held'on Satur- day night. 2 The paving committee’s report creating large number of paving districts wore, after much discussion, adopted. t The committee appointed to investigate the charges against the police force reported that steps had been taken to secure the at- tendance of important witnesses, and that the taking of testimony would be commenced at 2 o’clock at the council chamber tuis after- noon.
