The Former Makes an Explanation ©Ooncerning His Magazine Article. Brnvis, April 27.—Messrs, Kasson, Phelps and Bates, the American delegates to the Bamoan conference, called upon Prince Bis- marck this afternoon. The delegates are delighted with the re- ception accorded them, The chancellor was especially cordial to Bates, who explained that the articles on Samoa, in the Century magazine, were written long before he was nominated as a delegate to the conference, and that ofter his mommution he tried to | jo ‘withdraw the articles, but in vain, as thou- sands of copies had bee printed. Bismarck showed perfect familiarity with the Samoan conference. He expressed a hope that the conference would be brief. He frequently referred to the diplomatic and parliamentary experience of Kasson and Phelps. The first sitting was held at 2:30 p. m., to-day, at the foreign office. Butes explamed to Herbert Bismarck that smce the publication of the official dispatches in the white book, which showed the attitude of the German government, his article in the Century Magazine, which he had written as @& private and uninformed person, had lost all point, He said that he had the utmost es- teem for Germany, to which country America owed much. Nothing was further from his thoughts than to wound the German nation or the German government. Bates said he desired that his statement be published, and he trusted that it would remove entirely any fll-feeling toward him. an Emphatic Kind. Parts of the Conntry, 8t.

After laying between the tracks more than a half hour be was discovered and & conveyauce procured and removed to his boarding place near the brick kiln and a surgeon summoned. Mr. Faulkner is suffering great pain but the extent of his injuries cannot be known although they are believed not to be neces- sarily fatal. Conductor Jackson, who had charge of the train, and he is corroborated by both the engineer and fireman, atatos that Mr. Faulk- ner got on the front baggage car at the Sum- mit and on being asked for his fare, replied tuat he ‘‘didn’t have to put up his fare,’ and on his still refusing to pay, was put off, the cars goiug about three or four miles on hour, As the rear end of the last car passed Mr. Faulkner he tried to got on and slipped.

Welcomed by the Soldiers. Fort RopiNsoN, April #4.—(Special]—A more beautiful day could scarcely have been desired than that which contributed to mak- ing the reception of the board of trade at Fort Robinson an unequivocal success. At the depot, the veteran commandant of the post, General James S. Brisbin, was on hand to welcome the visitors. His appearance was greeted with demonstrations of appre- olation. He exchanged greotings with several of the party with whom he was acquainted, and then under his escort tho visitors pro- ceadea along the old familinr walk, past the original fort, past the quartors of officers who still 'hold some of the ancient and antiquated residences until the olub room was reached. Just ns the last mentioned place was reached, in response to the bugle call whioh had been sounded some minutes before, the lrou}is of the Ninth cavalry, of which there are four stationed at the post, made their ap- pearance, on their way to the parade grounds, The genoral hud evidently ordered a special parade in honor of the visitors, be- cause it was then but 2 o'clock in the after- noon. One of these troops passed the room of re- ception, The members were colored and everyone of thom was almost & beau ideal soldier. Each rode his horse with the mili- tary air and grace of a Ney, and among them I noticed several grizzled veterans whose chevrons bespoke a service cxtending back nearly a quarter of a century. Some of these were prominent figures in the ob- sequies of General Hatch, the late command- aut of the fort, who was two weeks ago laid 0 rest in the national cemetery at Leaven- worth, As {his troop passed the club room it at- tracted the attention of the visitors and ovoked many hearty commendations from those who were able to recognize and dis- posed to appreciate the personal qualifica- tions which contribute greatly toward excel- lence in the hife of a soldier. An informal reception was held by General Brisbin, each of the visitors being warmly greeted and welcomed to the post. The gencral was met for the first time by muany members of the party although sll of them had learned to know him through his articles in the newspapers, many of which had been written exclusively for 'k Bk, The reception over, the party adjourned to witness the parade. A large plaza in the rear of some of the old quarters had by this time been taken possossion of by four troops of mounted men, Lieutenant Finley acting as adjutant. K troop was commanded by Captain Parker, I by Captain Hughes, F by Captain Steadman,.and B by Captain Ladd. The averago attenGauce was about forty men, though the usualinttendance is about sixty-five mombers to each troop. The difference in; the size of the troops was occasioned by the absence of of some of the members from the post and the employment of: others on fatigue duty. ‘The manoeuvers of the cavalry were wit- nessed for the first time by nearly all the visitors and, notwithstanding that the sun was warm, were grently sppreciated. The colored band of the regiment, under the leadership of Mr, , Watters, discoursed a number of pieces; in ® most approved man- ner. Tk ‘The parade over, host and guests again as- sembled in the clab room, the former rein- forced by a number ef the youuger and more dushing _offieers (of the post. The gratification of ~theag gentlemen, ofticers who it is known jwolild be last ata feast and fivst at a. fray, .:was of the greatest. They gave lfe, to the occasion, renewing old and forming many new and appreciated acquaintances, The sharpcrack of liquid explosives showed that they were well armed and gave them an ascendancy over their visitors which tho latter, for a long time, were unable to overcome. No blood, however, was spitled. Instead, there was a_fearful destruction of the vintage of sunny France, which was at_length termin. ated only by the retreat, in good order, of the visitors. The hospitability was characteristic of the old fort and the gallant men who are idcuti- fied with it. It left a favorable impression on the visitors which doubtless will never bo eradicated. Nor will the recollection of the scene be casily effaced, Up to the time, it was the most beautiful our party had wit- nessed. They had beeo, in a measure, pre- pared for it, however, for a hun- drea miles before the place was reachea. The visitors found in the the various unique, wonderful conformation of the mountain crests around them a source of ceaseless consideration aud satisfaction. These marvels of nature, like an _immense oresting, surmount the ridges and may be imagined to be anything in the way of a ruined strucfure from the simplicity of a blucksmith’s forge to the stately grandeur and impressiveness of a cathearal of the mid- dle ages. The hosts comprised General Brisbin, Captains Corliss, Bailey, Hughos, Steadman, Taylor, Lieutenants Terrett, Hubert, Owen, Ludad, Bettens and Proston. "Thé excursionists were accompanied to the train by many of the above named gentle- men who were not, however, without some persuasion, induced to ride with the party to Crawford, the next station where um- bulances were found to take them back to the fort. General Brisbin was among the party and the last to_discon- unue the expressing the pleasure the visit had occasioned him, Persons familiar with Robinson, in all probubility * before many months will find a great part of the original siructure a thing of tho past. The old log buts, which were hastily ianlmvucd n trying Limes, have been abandoned, and will be removed’ from the face of the carth as soon as the new fort, now almost in course of erection, shall have been completed. ‘I'he appropriation of 75,000 made some time ago has been utilized in erecting six new sets of officers’ quarters and six new sets of companies’ quar- ters, all of which are mow occupied. They resemble in design those of Nio- brara, bewng of but oue story, with long, ' sloping roofs, the eaves of which in some places extend a consderable distance beyond the walls of the struciures, Thoe spica between these rows of buildings is as level as a palace hail and will make an excel- lent parado ground, The last appropriation of 30,000 will be utilized to build another set of company quartersand a guard house and satisfy several miner; requircments, among which will be a watexiworks systeu, as well as one forsewering, The groupds are now being ornnmented with trees, and in all gdirections irrigation trenches are being “Those aiready fiu- ished are musical with'strbama which burry to their destination ad' if ’imbued svith importance of the féesrthikzation of the plain for which they huve heen created.

Wednes- day he assaulted Tom Burke, cutting his head open. Burke would have killed him but was restrained, Mke went into a school house recently and turned out pupils and teacher, remarking that he would teach the school himself for awhile. No one inter- ferred. When Mike takes a notion he throws brickbats at anyone who comes along. No one has the nerve to oppose him, remembering his battle with the policemen. - Stewart Notes.

YaNk1oN, S. D., April 27.—[Special to Tk Ber.|—The certaiuty of the immediate building of a road from Yankton to Norfolk, has stirred up the Chicago, St. Paul, Minne- apolis & Omaha people, and surveyors are now at work between Hartington, the court house town of Cedar county, Nebraska, and Yaukton, and the company proposes to build two gaps and open a direct line from Omaha o Yankton as soon as the work can be done. The Sioux City Journal, not supposed to be very friendiy to the enterprise, makos this caudid statement ; ““I'he tax voted by Nerfolk on Tuesday in aid of the building of the Norfolk, Yankton & Northern project is liable to stir up the opposition of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minne- apolis & Omaha road. It is_well known in Sioux City that for the past two woeks sur- veyora of that line have been running lines from Hartingtou to the bank of the Missourt river opposite Yankton, One of the offi- cers of the road said to a Journal man yesterday: ‘By the building of thirty-four miles of road we can in sixty days complete and have in_operation an air line road from Omabato Yankton. From Hartington to Yankton, a distauce of twenty- four miles, is very heavy work and quito an expensive job, but with ihis counection made and the stringing of rails from Wakefield to Pender, we would have the most direct and shortest.route possible. #rom Wakefield to Pender is only ten miles, and the whole job could be rushed through in two months if necessary. 1 don’t say it has been decided to build these extensions, but surveyors will dmuke a report at headquarters in a few ] Will Omana wake up and help the thing along! ‘Ihe business men, jobbers, manufac- turers and shippers of Omaha should bring all the power of their business relations to bear on the “Omaha Line to’ comvel 1t to make these connections st once, 80 that they can reach the rich valleys of the James and Mis- souri riyers above Yankton. Yaukton and Omwaba would be thus brought within six or seven hours of each other,and while it would help Yunkton, Omaha would be immeasura- bly benefitted. i 1t is announced that surveyors are in the fleld, and that a report will be made to the company. Will Omaha awake from its sleep and act, or leave us alone und force our vust business in other and different directions! High License in Boston.

HMis Refasal to Pay the Sum of Seven Dollars and Fifty Oonts Raises Up an Avenging Nemeosis. Revenge Is Sweet. FrEMONT, Neb,, April 27.—[Speoial to Tar Ber.]—A telegram has just boen received here from S, S, Price, of Omaha, sent from Rinoon, New Mexico, yesterday afternoon, stating that he was on his way here, having in custody Joseph L. Webbor, & mar whose career in Fremont deveioped the largest succession of crimes in the way of forgery, probably, ever occurring in Nebraska. The announcemieut of his arrest has rovived the story of his orime hore, and there is intense public interest and excitement on account of it. Webber came to Fremont about 1870 and engaged in the barber business. He brought with him a small sum of money, and in ad- dition o plying his trado as & tonsorial artist he loaned money at the usual rate of interest current hore in those early days. By this means he gradually mcquired & comfortable sum. Ife followed his occupa- tion and money loaning for about three years, during which time he took special pains to establish himself in the good graces of the general public, especially in the finan- cial circles of the city, and ocoatinued with the comparauvely slow process of enriching himself by loaning his money at the rate of 40 per cont interest. In the latter part of 1873 he began to resort to forgery to swell his income. He did littlo of this business this year, but engagod in it on an extensive scale during the months of February and Mavoh, 1874, He forged dozens of notes on fictitious names, and putting them among genuine bankable paper ho succceded in Qisposing of all of them at a good vound = price, discounting them sufficiently to insure their sale. Dur- ing the time he was disposing of his forged paper he gave it out that he was intending to start a bank at West Poiut, and he in fact leased a building for that purpose, hired & casbier and enguged bowrd at o hotel thore. The crisis came und his rascally transactions were discovered when ho sold s household furniture to a local furniture dealer at a sacrificed prico. The removal of the farni- ture from his house created suspicion, and upon inquiry it was found that he had left the city, taking with him_at least 11,000 which ho had secured by forgery. The ‘an- nouncoment of this threw the city into u state of oxcitement and alwost created a panic, us the fluaucial condition of Fremont at that time was not of the high order that it i at prosent. By the nid of the Pinkerton detective azency Webber was captured in about & weels at Joliot, 11l Ho was brought back to Fremont and lodged in juil. Thur- teen_indictments were filed against him in the district court, and in loss thun six_weeks he had been senténced w five years in the state penitentiary. Immediately aftor being transferred Lo the penitentiary at Lincoln, Mrs. Webbor, who was an attractive and voluptuous woman, and who had cvidently rendered her husband assistance in his_ dia- bolical schemes, at onco began an effort to sccure his pardon. She met with 1ll-success here in getting signatures to her petition to the governor. She secured u few, however, from loboring men and of the cluss of citizons who knew little about the casc, and cared less, by treatmn them to beer, and otherwise. She also hire Charles Tenint, who was_then runuing a hotel in Omaba, to copy on her petition _the siguatures from his hotel register, for which sho paid him #20. Armed with ths, sho went to Lincolu and engaged rooms ut' the hotel where Governor Furnas stopped. She remained there two months, and the sequel was that within five months from the time of her husband’s incarceration he was par- doned. ~ When the mews of the pardon reacned Fremont, which was not until forty- eight hours afterwards, public indignation was intense, and the result was the burnin g of Governor Furnas in offizy, at the corner of Sixth and Broad streots, This was ff- teen years ago, but from that day until re- cently nothing hiad been heard of Webber's whereabouts. He was recently located, bowever, at Wilcox, Ariz., a little obscuze mining town on the Southern Pacific rail- of Omaha, and B. W. ynolds, of this city, went there to sceure him, but lie was at that time absent in San Francisco. They, however, made certain of Lis identity, and Soon after’ returning howme they were notified that he was there, when Mr. Price secured a requisition from G ernor Thayer and went to Wilcox and sc cured his man. He is expected to_arrive in Fremont with him to-morrow. This case has been prosecuted by Wilson Raynolds, who was swindled out of the pittance of £7.50. When Webbor was brought back from Joliet, Mr. Reynolds_interviewed him in jnil and asked him to disgorge the $17. 8s it was L00 smalla sum to speak sbout. Webber refused o do it, when Mr. Reynolds assured Lim that that $7.50 would follow him all the days of his life, and the sequol proves that Mr. Reynolds has kept his word. A Snide Couple.
