THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, WHY HE PLEADED GUILTY. A Criminal Confesees to Petit Lar- ceny to Establish an Alibl SUPPOSED TO BE A BURGLAR. Willful Little Annie Kelley Tells a Fib About a Young Lady Friend —~One of Forepaugh's Clowns Arrested. > STREET, TLaNcoLN, Aucust 23, J. H. Foster, the man convicted of petit iarceny a few weeks since, completed his sentence in the county jail to-day, and was released. On information from Gage county, however, he was rearrested and again com- mitted to Jail. It appears that he is wanted there on the charge of burglary. Foster called for an attorn®y and straightwiy swore out a habeas corpus before Judge Stewart, and the question of his detention under ser- vice of the last \varrant was argued this af- ternoon at 4 o'clock. There is a web of peculiar circumstances surrounding Foster that has been overlooked by the press gener- ally, It will be remembered that Ed Cerf filed the complaint that first led to his arrest in this city. He charged him with steal- ing @ pair of pants from his store on Ostreet. Prior to this, however, he and two others, Barnell and Stout, were under surveillance by the police force as being implicated in breaking into Welsh's house anl burglarizing his safe last June. Butno formal complaint of this was ever entered. Cerf's complaint included Bar- nell and Stout. At the trial Foster entered the plea of guilty and was senteuced to the county jail ?r ten days. Barnell and Stout stood trial and were acquitted. Subsequently itdeveloped that Foster had not been near Cerf’s store on the daythe pants were stolen; indeed, it has _boen proved that he was not in the city. When he was arrested his wife gave it out that he had been in the burglary business. Recent develupments are such that the public think that he pleaded guilty and acoepted the senteuce of the court, hoping to evade a more serious pun - ishment that he thought stared him in the face, There is no reasonaole doubt but what he ought to do service for the state, and it is said that he will doso if the Gage ‘county authorities get hold of him. A Depraved Little Girl. ‘Word was received yesterday at the police station that a young girl who guve her name as Aonie Kelley had been put off the train at Culbertson. Some Lincoln people were there, and to them she said she lived in Lin- coln, but* that she was running uway to Denver. She said that she worked in the Peerless laundry, and though her parents lived in the city, she roomed for the greater part of the time with another girl, a Louise Waggoner, in the third story of the Zeh- rung & Dunn block. This Miss Waggoner, she said, did fancy work for u living, but had persuaded her to go to Denver and enter a lifeof shame in the house of Miss Waggo- ner’'s sister. These Lincoln people provided for the gil temporarily and notified the Lin- coln police. Ofticer Malone was sent out yes- terday after her and brought her in this morning. Miss Waggoner, who was arrested yester- day, spent the might in the police station much to her own chagrin, as well as the honest looking young fellow’s who said that he was engaged to be murried to her. Miss ‘Waggoner said that she had a sister in Den- wver, but that she was only a fifteen-year-ola girl, and could not be engaged in that busi- ness, She said that the Kelley girl had left her room Tuesday evening, saying that she intended going home to spend the night, and that she had not seen her since. She denied that she had recommended such a life w her, &n on the contrary had warned her against Lixcorx BureAv or THE OMATA HBan, 1029 P t» Tho case was called in the polico court this morning, when the Kelley girl, who is but a little chitof a thing, only fourteen, and does not look over twelve, was sent to Mrs. Dr. Lane to bo_examined. Mrs, Dr. Lane reported that whilo tho girl was not a virgin, she had not recently gone astray, Tho sympathies of the court and all con- cerned were with Miss Waggoner, and the general belief was that the little Kelley girl knew more of the ways of the world than did the lady whom she had accused. The case ngainst Miss Waggoner was dismissed und the Kelley girl’s parents took her home. The Penit. inry Flue. The boiler house chimney at the state pen- itentiary is finished and has been secured and paid for by the state. It is a “five foot flue, 1’125 feet in height and is said to be the best thing of the kind in the state. Its con- struction cost $1,300. The board of public lands and buildings passed upon it to-day. At the meeting of the board, Hans 1. J, Fuehrmann was appointed superintendent of construction on all work now doing at the soldier’s und sailor's home at Grand Island. It is stipulated that he shall visit the work two days each week uutil work begins on the boiler bouse, and after that tuue three times each week. The secrctary was instructed to notify Commandant Hammond that he had be enre- lieved as superintendent, Deteetive Association, The Nebraska Detective company filed articles of iucorporation in the otlice of tho secretary of state to-day.

The gentlemen comprising the association have bound them- selves unto the state in the sum of $10,000), and the bond hus been approved, filed and accepted, The Freight Reduction Order. The order of the state board of transporta- tion reducing freight rates on coal ship- ments, with the string attached, seems to be causing some annoyance and anxiety in rail- road circles. Itis doubtless still in mind that the board ordered all roads doing busi- ness in the state to contirm to the schedule recommended in Secretary (Garbe: report and findings on the Sutherland-Manning complaints, within the time required by law, or appear before the board and show cause ‘Why it is unreasonable and unjust. General Manager Burt, of the Elkhorn, writes the board of secretaries that while the rond he represents desives to comply with all orders and ru&ulremenu of the board, the order iu- dicated is 80 manitestly unjust to his people that he desires 1o be heard as to its unreason- ableness, and asks for o dute and place for the helrlnf It 15 also stated that other roads wwait & hearing, wud that the board of transportation will fix upon a time for it 1n the near ruture.

New Yonx, August23.—|Special Telegram to Taz Bee|—The Medical Record will print to day an editorial by Dr George F. Shrady denouncing the Brown-Sequard elixir as the foolish conceit of an old man in whoso mind dreaws of returning youth had ussumed the counterfeit of reality. Dr. Sbrady suys the method prescribed in rela- tion to the elixir is on 1ts face preposterous and its vaunted _effects impossible and ridiculous. Tt is oppesed to all known physiological and biological laws, and had it not boen bolstered up by the reputation of Brown-Sequard it woula scarcely have been heard of outside of the Paris society where it had been pro- posed. Along with this editorial is an ar- ticle entitled **An Experimental Study of the Brown-Sequard ‘Iheory” by an eminent physician, Dr. Henry P. Loomis, in which he reviewed ull the cases on which he tried the fuid in Bellevue hospital, to each of which is added a comment to the effect that there had been no improvement or that the improve- ment had not been permanent. In one case the treatment was njurious. e e B Make no Mistake. By dispeling the symptoms 80 often taken for comsumption. SANTA ABIE has brought gladness to many a household.

Moderate Activity in Oats and a Good Aggregate R:corded—The Bears on Top 1n Provisions—Uattle Slow — Quotations. CRICAGO PRODUCE MARKETS, Citroaco, August 23, —[Special Telezram to Tur Bee,|—Wheat was jarred out of its run to-day and prices declined about 3fc. The murket recovered a triflo from the lowest point of the day, but it wus far from strong. Speculative operations were on an enlarged scale and there was free liquidation on the part of fatigued or disheartened longs. That was a feature of the day's trading. The manifestation of weakness to-day was chiefly attributable to splendid weather throughout the west and easicr cables. The weather ubroad is improving and crop advices ure more favorable. An “old chestnut” in the form of a private cable, to the effect that a semi-oMicial estimate of the FKrench crop showed @ gain of 48,000,000 bushels over last year, was ‘'sprung” with considerable effect early in the day, and various rumors were afloat as to the estimutes of the *“Vienna congress,” Somebody gave it out that tue congress had been in sassion several days and was about to issue estimates of the world’s production. This was a theme of eudloss disoussion and speculation. The member who “scooped’ the whote trade on the rindings of the con- gress last year says it does not meet formally until next Monday, and that the report will not be issued until the last of next week. ‘This gossip is presented for what it is worth, Any estimate from the Vienna congress caa not increase or decrease the world's produc- tion a bushel, but just the same, its report is accepted as fa‘rly authoratative by most writers and the trade in general. For that reason it will be awaited with no little interest. The opening trades in Decem- bor were on @ basis of ggc. The market sold off to i7igc, when it met Wwith strong support in the shape of nnmer- ous miscellancous buying orders and heavy purchases by Hutchinson, The latter was & biz buyer most of the session and did his best apparently to ‘“peg the market” at 7iige. Prices got below thav fgure several times, going to kes even touching 7iie for a moment, but rallying anickly a fraction. The fighting ground was around 77i4c, at near which price heavy business was done. The closing quotation was 77 Jc. Septewmber opened at i7e, ranged at Ti{c@ Trcand closed at 76%c. Little was done in August e That month start ranged at T7@7ilgc and closed at leftoff atSlige. Operations were principally in futures. Among the reasons for the dechine that were given was a falling off in the shippinz demand for wheat. It is true that charters were reported for 169,000 bushels to-day, and it is 0 probably true that considerable wheat is still awaiting shipment as soon as advantageous freight arrangements can be made, but this is te a large extent classed as old business. Local stocks ave not likely to show any important increase on the week, but the forward move- ment from the interior is certamnly on the increase, and, if the weather hoids good, @ stili further augmentation of receipts may reasonably be looked for in the spring and winter districts. From the northwest word is received that competition between millers has hardened the price of choico wheats. The sentiment in that quarter, as well as in Chicago, may be described us bearish for all that, The fine growing weather for corn created a general desire to sell that cereal at the opening of the market to-day, and the im- pulse was not controlled until September and May had each declined 3gc under the lowest point touched the day before. Sep- tember started at 3434 apa May ab 3c and sold down to 841gc and e, respectively, in a very short time, Therc ivas consider- able activity on the dechne, but the market became dull when the selling pressure abated and a slight reaction occurred. The weakness, however, prevailed to the close. Iu addition to the weather influe that of heavy recewpts, weak for ets and a slacking up in the shipping de- mand here An additional cause of weak- uess, effecting more espee a h corn and the seller month, was the defiverig out of large quantities of Santa Fe elevator re- ceipts on Augnst contract, and this house being out of the way and unhandy, those re- celpts are very unpopular. In oats moderate activity was the rule, with a good aggregate trade recorded. Prices averaged a fraction lower under liberal re- ceipts. The estimato for to-morrow was ulso in sympathy with the otner markets, At the sume time there was a fair demand at a slight decline by those who have confidence in the market at the low range now establishea. May sold down }{c to 28}, but all buying orders at that could not be filled. With- drawals for shipment were not heavy, and car lots of No. 2 to go tostore were lgc lower at 20c. No. 2 white for August sold at 2347 “xlv. and No. 2 white September at 234 @ & 0, In provisions the bears were the dominant party. Larger receipts of hogs ay_this and other points than expeeted, together with a severe break in prices for the same, made but one side t)the market. [t had appar- ently no support to speak of from any q ter, and consequently the bears found 1t an énsy matter to obtain control. _Pricas were somewhat irregular, but for all descriptions of the product'the range of the day was materially lower than that of yesterday. Lard and short ribs touched, in fact, the lowest figures reached this year. In trading short ribs received more than usual attention, yet pork was active, whilo in lard there was more than an average movement, Shorts were the principal buyers all around, From the opening to the close of change the trade was more than of ordinary interest. Initiatory, transactions in various iines were made at the best price obtained. he clos- ings showed un actual decline, based on yesterday's final qnotations, of 221¢c on Sep- tember and January pork, 1214¢ on October pork, September lard and Jinuary ribs, 5 on October and January lard, September short ribs, and 22)gc on October short ribs. CHICAGO LIVE SIOOK. CuoAc0o, August 23.—[Spacial Telegram to Tae Bee |—Carrie.—Trade was slow and the general murket rather weak, with every- thicg in the natve line selling, if anything, a shade lower, except a fow hundred fancy exporters and shipping steers, Common native steers and scrub stock of all kinds, cows, beifers and bulls, may be quoted down to low-water mark and in some cases 15@20¢ lower than yesterday., There were about 4,000 Texans in the ran, with a slow market and prices weak at a decline of 10@150 noted yesteraay.

The general theory is thal 7Y was liquidation by professionals, A rumor that certain large banks had catled theip loans added to tho general demoralization and afterward preved to bew fubrication. The consorva tives looked upon the ation as a rosult of the tight money bugbear., L. some quarters it was argued that the best, bulls favored & sharp drop to et rid of too much following and to increase tho SHOTE interest. Both these results were accommplished. The fact that there is no bull orgauization leads hope- ful dhes to believe that the raid will not bo prolonged. They were not aitogether justi- fled in this bolief, for the weakness wus car- ried over and the opening to-day was active, feverish and at lower figures generally. The most marked weakness was in Clevelaud. Cineinnati, Chicago & St. Louis, which lost 1per cent to 73 and first preferred 1§ to 99 in the first hour, There were slight de- clines fror first figures, followed by a fair upturn at the end of the hour in Northern Pacific, some of the Grangers and Coal stocks, followed again vefore noon by a sec- ond decline, leaving prices irregular and gen- erally av small fractions under the close of last night. The stock market was irregular t0 the close. Money Was not 8o important o factor as on yesterday, although rates ranged from 44 to 6 per cent. At the close prices were ot materially different from last night The total sales for the day were 143, shares, ‘The following wera tho closing quotations: Northern Pacific d doprater % C. v (Lrhl Telegram 't prorarre Y.Contral Burlington 021 ORI & Qopretarred . &\ St.Paul & Omaha dopreferrad. |Unlon Pacific.

Friday, August 23, Tt 18 impossible to fully convey to the mind of a shipper 1n the country the true state of the cattle market. The market on beef cat- tle was simply dead, and 1t was midday be- fore any cattle of that description changed hands. In the afternoon there wassome trading at prices 40@50¢ lower than the best on Thursday of last week. Very fair or good beeves sold at §1.50. About half of the cattle were western rangers. The number of na- tive beef cattle was not o very large, and aside from a bunch or two the quality’ was not very desirable. There was not what could be called a prime bunch of heavy cattle on the market. "There was plenty of butch- ers’ stock on sale, such as old and common cow ‘There was not much change in the prices on this class of cattle, and yet some of the buyera thought they got their cattle a hittle lower on account of there being more to select from, There was a little more de- muund for canners, and there was consider- able trading in them, though mostly in small lots, odds and ends. Cows sold at §1.70@2.50, larcely at §1.75@2.00 and canners at $1.46@ .05, There were plenty of stockers and feeders, especially little stockers, in the yards. There wero quite a good many buy- ors, but they took hold a little slow. Prices remain about the same. Native feeders sold ot £2.25@3,15, und some westerns at §2.50. Hozs. Tho lmk market fell away 10c to-day under the influence of a heavy decline i1n the east~ orn hog market as well as in the provision market, Although salesmen were a little slow to let go of their holdings a clearance was effected before midday.
