The Atalanta on a Rampage and Punching a Pier. New Yong, June 20.—|Special Telogram to Tue Ber.]—Jay Gould's steam yacht, Ata- lanta, struck the ond of pier 54, Tuesday afternoon. The Atalanta was headed up stream, under a slow speed, with Jay Gould and several members of his family on board, when Captain Shackford, seeing he was ligely to foul the dock, gave the signal to the engineer to reverse the engine. He mistook it for a signal to go ahead full speed and tho Atalanta sprang forward, cutting like a knife through a big rope fender and knocking four of the twenty-four inch beams into splinters. Her jibboom punched a hole through the cor- rugated iron side of the shed, breaking off three feet from the end of the boom. The Atalanta’s bow mounted up on a cross beam out of the water, but when her engines wera finally reversed she pulled out of the big hole almost without a scratch. Gould sent word to the owners of the pior that he would pay the cost of repairing the damage, which will amount to about $1,500. B AMUSEMENTS, Alarge audience greeted the first per- formance of the rcproduction of the home opern, *Mr. Sampson of Omaha,” which took place at the Grand opera house, last night. Tho audience was demonstrative, but bestowed its favors'with more than usual discrimination. Some changes haye been made in the cast which appeared in the original production of the piece, and in many instances the changes may be comwmended. ‘The chorus is larger, more picturesque in grouping and attire than it was orizinally, and seems to grasp the idea of its introduc- tion much more firmly than did its prede- cessor. More pain, also, appears to have been taken iu setting the picce, u cir- cumstance which contributes greatly to its success. There is mnot an objec- tionable voice among the principals. Messrs. Brigham, Young, Deuel and Barton received recalls, as did also Mrs. Martin Cahn_and Miss Bertha Baylies. The singing of the chorus was excellent, The peris seom to have been nicely balanced, and the beautiful choruses as a consaquonce are very effect- ively repdored, Whatever may be said as to tho ¢hgrossing interest of the story, the imeasure of success which must be accorded the performers for their acting, the fact can not be gainsaid that “Mr. Sampson' is a tuneful work which of itself is worthy of patronage. -~ A PUGET SOUND LINE. The Union Pacific Will Build to Port Townsend, The Union Pacific has decided to extend the lines of the Oregon Railway & Naviga- tion company from Tekoa to Port Townsend and Tacoma. This is an important extension and will make a shorter line to Puget sound points than that now in uso.

The witness rose in his chair and brandished an umbrella, His faco was ablaze with wrath, and above all the uproar his voice was heard, shouting: *You aro a liar; and infernal liar,” It' looked as though “‘Billy" about to make a descent on tho slight attor- ney boneath him, and the bailiffs loaped for- ward, Tho witnoss did not pursue his hos tilo domonstrations, and order was finally re- stored, but *Billy" was not _pacified and he glarod at Underwood.

A committee, o whom the matter was referred, reported as follows: Whereas, A grand lodge of Free and Ac- cepted Masons 1s an independent and sover- eign body, recognizing and having supreme jurisdiction of no other degrees than those of Entered Apprentice, Felloweraft and Master Masons, o8 illustrated and taught by the rituals and secrot work adopted by such grand lodge; therefore be it Resolyed, That this grand lodgo expressly declines to enter upon uny discussion of the history, use or legitimacy of any hodies claiming to confer what is known as Scottish Rite degrees, or to be committed to the cognition of any such body, or to the recog- mtion of uny body conferring any degrecs over which this grand lodge has no control, as being Masonic, or as being part of Aucient Craft Masonry. That we cordially indorae the law as recog- nized aud promulgated by our grand master : 1. That two bodies, claiming to be Masouic, of the same grade, can not lawfully exist in the same stato at the sume time. 2. That the first lawfully constituted au- thority established in a state thereby obtains exclusive jurisdicuion in_such territory, and that any other body of the sume grade or rite entering later, within such territory, is in it- self unlawful, This report was adopted as the sentiment of the grand lodge. The evening session was for the #{mnter part devoted to the grand orator, H. W, Wil- #on, of Lincoln. His address was bovh strong and eloquent, and was listened to with tho closest attention. On account of rain the carriage ride, which wns on the programme, yestorday, was post. poned until 10 o'clock, to-day, at thich time the members of the grand lodge will be es- corted about the ecity by the local lodgos.

The delegation then marched in and made a tour, dircct to the roof, where they ob- tained & magnificent view of tho busy ' city and surrounding country. Somo proforrod to climb the large stairway, while others ac- cepted the less exhaustive means, that of riding in tho rapid-trausit olovators. From the roof a visit was made to Mr. Rosewator’s apartmonts where each visitor was presented with one of the pretty souvenir cards. Thoe editorial rooms were then inspected, then the com- posing, stereotyping and mailing rooms, Tho parties then went to the counting room, and finally the grand court, the great heighth, perfect arrangement and general beauty of '\'\lllli«‘ll elicited many expressions of admira ion. These men represent tho substantial as well as most influential elements of evory community, They are broad-minded, ex- vorienced, comprehensive citizens, and readily appreciate any enterprise or im- provement calculated to Dbonefit, not only Omaha but the entire commonwealth, Every one of them spoke 1n terms of praise of Mr. Rosewater’s energy in erecting such a monument us Tie Ber building, Its entire complotness, thorough in modern architec- tural arrangemont and construction, its im- mense sizo and the equipment for printing a great newspaper were the principal feat- ures on which comment was made. Those among the visitors well enough acquainted with the business to approciate a composing room such as the one witnessed in this struc- ture wore rapturous in their praiso, At the expiration of an hour the visitors went to their lodge rooms more than pleased with their call and all promised to come again, Election of Officers by the Supreme Lodge—Other Business. The Supreme lodge of the A.O. U. W. mot at 9:30 a. m., pursuant to adjournment, and at once went into committec of tho whole. The question befere the committee was: Shall each state be empowered to di vide into districts in order that if one section shall suffer a vory heavy death rate, it may be set off by itself and left to pay its own denth losses without aid from without? Ham- ilton county, Ohio, is a case in point, In Cincinnati, which is within Hamilton county, the death rate for the last year has been phenomenally large, and there wero certain other sections of the state demanding that this county be set apart, to live or die as the case might be, solely that the heavy burden of assessment might be removed from the workmen in more rural parts, The matter was warmly debated, and the entire morning was passed without any de- cision being reached. The lodge was called to order, at 2:30 p, m., by Supreme Master Workman Masters, and proceeded at once to the election of officers for the ensuing year. The following 18 alist of the newly elected officers: Supreme master workman, William R. Graham, Cedar Falls, Ia.; supreme foreman, W. Warne ‘Wilson, Detroit, Mich.; supreme overseer, J. W. Kinsley, kelena, Mont.; supremoe re- corder, M. W. Sackett, Meadville, Pa., su- preme receiver, John J. Acker, Albany, N. ; supreme guide, L. P. Young, jr., Lex- ington, Ky.; supreme watchman, William Butts, Baltimore, Md.; supreme medical ex- aminer, Dr. Hugh Doherty, Boston, M: supreme trustees, H. B, Loomis, Buffalo, N. Y.: L. L. Troy, Chicago, Ill.; Warren Lot~ ten, Woodstock, Can, The place of the noxt annual meeting has been fixed at at Boston, on the third Tues- d“i: of June, 1800, The election of officers being disposed of the lodge again went into committee of the whole to consider the amendment offered by the relief board. The delegates from Ohio, Meossrs, Herman Baumbach, Toledo; J. A. Justice, Youngstown, and J. W. Henderson, Lynchburg, wero very earnest in thoir argu: ments for the amendment, and presented their case in a strong light. The lodges in Cinci i have accepted a number of mem- bers who were very “bad risks,” and as a consequence, the death rate has been ab- normally high, causing the order in thatstato to fall into disfavor on account of the number of assessments, Many of the members are of the opinion that the Ohio lodges should be left to fight their own battlein a trouble which they have brought upon themselves. The matter is one of great importance, as it affects the working plan of the entire order. The question was warmly debated, and ad- %n\n'nluunu was taken without reaching any ecision. At 7:30 p. m. the various iodges of this city and South Or assembled for the parade, ‘which started from Sixteouth and Harney. first came three of the mounted police, fol- lowed by a platoon of police under Sergeant Sigwart. After these came the Union Pacific band, closely followed by +the “tean’’ from Topeka.

Loft by Oronin's Assassina in the Qarlson Cottage. MAY LEAD TO ANOTHER ARREST. A Shoomaker Gives a Pointer to the Police — Burke 1dentifled by & Detective—O'Sullivan Thought to be Weakening. Another Suspect. Ci10400, Juno 20.—~The polic have undee surveillance in the Cronin case another sus~ pect ngainst whom they hopo to securo evie denco which will connect him with the cons spiracy. When the Carlson cottage was ex- amined and the foot prints i tho tresh paind on the floor were discovered, a shoemaker wrote to the police offering valuablo suggess tions. Ho said a woll known Irishman snd & Clan-na-Gael man, whoso name he had seen montionod in the papers in connection with the murder, was o customer of his, and that he had vory poculiar foet. A pioco of the floor of tho cottage with stocking-foot prints on it was cut out and taken to the polico headquarters and compared with & tracing of his foot in pos- sossion of the shoemaker. They were found to corrospond almost exactly in size and shape. Ever since this discovery was made thoman has boen olosely watchod by the oiice, and js 80 guarded that he can not cave tho city, Tho shoemakers tracing and a fragment of the flooring are in the hands of tho grand jury. Tho books of tho Chicago National bank were called for by the Cronin grand jury, to-day, and_the hour was spent exawminiog the wecounts of Alexander Sullivan, and in comparing the dates of certain checks with the datos of Sullivan's operations on tho board of trade. vidence was given to show Coughlin's intimacy with various suspects, aud to his frequontly expressod animosity to Cronin. W. P. Hatfleld, a salesmon at Requell & Co.'s, thought the rescmblance of the man who bought tho furniture for the Carlson cottage and the photograph of Burke was strong, but was not positive of identity. A number of subpwmnas were issucd just before noon, and it was reported that the jury had obtainod a completo list of tho ‘membership of camp 20, Clan-na-Gael, com- monly known as the Columbia club, and had directed a subpeena of every mombor of that orzanization. It was from this camp that Cronin was oxpelled a couple of years ngo on the chargo of treason. John K. Walsh, president of the Chicago National baak, who was receiver for tho broker firm of TRosonvelt 0., after their failure in 1887, was bofore the grand jury nearly na hour explaining tho oporations of Alexandor Sullivan on the board of trade in 1882 and 1883, s indicated by the books of tho firm. It Was reported that 8o far as Mr, Walsh's knowledge extended Sullivan ex- perienced no severe loss, A number of other witnesses were cxamined, but nothing of importance was loarced. 1t is probablo the jury will complete its labors this wook. Nearly all tho ovidenco within reach of tho state's attornoy has been produced, and un- less the polico succeed _in capturing Cooney within the next forty-eight hours or discover more implicating evidence, the jury will doubtless render its final report on - the case Saturday. P. O'Sullivan, the icoman, was to-day ro- moved to the so-called boys’ department of the jail, the recognized haven for “sqealera” It iy asserted tho iceman has offered to make @ clean brenst of evervibing he knows, His motive for being willing now to confess is alleged to be the fright over the arrest of Burke and the search for Cooncy, tho lat- ter’s partuer. Burke Id of Chicago, arrived to-day, and identiflod Martin Burke as the man wanted for Cro- nin's murder. Immediately upon his arrival sceded to the police station, and to- ith Chief of Polico McRea, 'enterod Burke's cell. Burke looked up as hoen- tered and Collins remarko: ‘‘Well, Burke, this is & bad placo to be."” Burke roplied instantly, ““Yos, John, it is,” but a minute later denied'any knowledge of the Chicago detective. Collins, however, was satisfied and rotirod with Cliof McRen. Ho drove to the resi- denco of Judge Bain, where the information was sworn out. Woodruff's Parents Arrive. CiicaGo, , June 20.—Mr. and Mrs, H. C. Black, of San Fraucisco, arrived in tho city to-day, and had o long interviow at the jail with Frank Woodruff, Mrs, Black's son, The meeting was an affecting one, and the old couple were almost prostrated. They wore seen by a reporter after the interview, and stated that althougn Lawyer Pierce had been employed to defend Woodruff, they would be unable to afford him adequate de- fense, as thoy possessed no property, and Mr. Black was dependent for support upon aregul lary from a San Franciseo firm, They ned to state anything that had passed between them and the prisoner. “Your son claims,” said the reporter to Mrs, Black, ‘‘tnat bo is neithor a Catholic nor an_Irishman, and that he wiil get the worst of it and be made to suffer for the sins of others? “Yes, that is what we are afraid of,” re- phed tho lady. "“We haveno money to de- fend Frank, and fear there is an attempt to make him &' scapegoat.” The old couple will return to San Fran- cisco in & dny OF two. ——————— SOUTH OMAHA NEWS, An Unnatural Orime.
