May, of the Nebraska fish commission, is in the city on his way east. He reports that the commission has coi tracted with the Litchtield, Ill., car manu- facturing company for a fish car which is to be delered by October 1. The car is built after the model of the one owned by the Michigan fish commission and 1s about fifty feet long. ‘The imtial trip of the car will probably be made with a load of about 50,000 or 60,000 carp, which will be planted at various poiuts along the throe railroads. The comtmission hius made preparations for the erection of a new hatchery at South Bend to take the place of the old” one, which bus been found inadequate. The contracts were to have been let a weck ago but_owing to some bitch in the procecdings they are held and will probably be awarded during the coming week. Tho hatchery is to cost £1,500. Arrangements have been made for the trsnsportation of three cars of bass, pike, cropics, pickerel and several other varieties which have been secured from Secrotary Bartlett, of the 1llinoi: fish com- mission, wlo hns charge of the collection of indigenuous fish _collected in ponds formed by overflows. These cars will be received within the next two weeks and the fish will be distributed along the lines of the B. & M., Union Pacific and Elk- horn roads. Through the liber v of these three rouds and the Chicago, Bul Quiney road, these cars will 'be transported from Illinois free of charge. Two cars were distributed in this manner last year, but this year the commission intends to cover more territory. Mr. May hus been in correspond- once with Sccretary Bartlott and hus se cured the promise of the three carloads of fish, and has induced the railroads to trans- vort them free of charge, so that tho fish do not cost the state anything. These fish are from six to ten inchesin length and will soon be large enough to catch. The state commission will make a large exhibit at the state fair this year. Sixteen aquariums, with an aggregate length of 150 feet, have beeu arrauged in a building put up by the state board of agriculture. This will be the largest exhibit which has yet been made, and will bo a most interesting one. Colonel McDonald, United States fish commissioner, who passed through Omaha on his way to the Pacitic coast on a tour of inspection of the coast and the hatcheries, will arrive in Washington to-morrow.

It Claime Cooley's Decision is But a Temporary Set-Back. WILL ISSUE ANOTHER TARIFF. Chairman Faithorn Will Try to In- duce the Trunk Lines to Pro- rate With the Northe western Roads, The Railrond Situation. Onicaco, August 24.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bee.]—Judge Cooley's decision that the proportional tariffs quoted between Chi- eago und St. Paul were illegal, had a vory ‘ect on the Northwestern roads The matter was not mentioned in meeting of the Western Freight as- sociation. The Burlington & Northern is, however, very much dissatisfied with the outcome. Vice Pres dent Harris and Gen- eral Freight Agent Hamblin, of that road, claim positively that Judge Cooley’s decision is simply & temporary setbac! Mr. Haurris said this morning that his rosd would as soon s possible, iseue a legal tariff on which through business couid be taken from the seaboard to the northwest, provided prorating arrangements can be made with an eastern line. This tarift will be issued as soon as it can be printed. Chairman Faithorn, of the Western Freight ussociation,starts to-morrow for New York on the thankless task of trying to in- duce the trunk lines to prorate with the northwestern lines. The Central Trafic association has already refused to prorate, Chairman Blanchard being bitterly opposed 1 it. As alrendy shown in these dispatches, the northwestern lines must secure prorating arrangements with eastern lines, go out of the business or carry it at a loss. The Cavadian Pacific and 'So0” lines have reduced rates to such a puint that there is no possible chance of the Chicago ronds making & paying rate in addi- tion to the eastern locals. The latest illus- ration is the fact that it was necessary to reduce the Chicago-St. Paul rate to 15 cents to meet this competition. Chairman Walker, of the Inter-state Com- merce Railway ussociation, delivered two de- cisions to-day. The first was on an applica- tion of the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City for authority to establish a rate of §3.20a ton on hard coal from Duluth to southwestern Missouri river points, being the same rate as from Chicago to the same points. The dis- tance from Duluth to St. Joseph via the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City being 625 miles, and the short line distance from Chi- cago to St. Joseph being 470 miles, the ap- plication was denied. The second decision _allowed the petition of the St. Louis & San Francisco road asking permission to equalize the grain rate via Kansas City and St. Louis by refunding St. Louis bridge tolls. Shipments of various commodities from Chicago this week are larger and show larger ncreases than ever before. On gran, provisions and hive stock the follow- ng figures are of interesv: Week of 1888 8,288,000 3, 173,200 Articles.

Scalpers ave already doing a rushing busi- ness with Grand Army encampment tickets. One scalper to-day sold over 100_at §1.25 for the round trip to Milwaukee, and confidently believes he will sell 500 on Monday at $1. It is not charged that any of the roads are manipulating rates, the supply of tickets in scalpers' hands arising from the fact that any one coming to Chicago now travels on a Grand Army ticket the unsold portion being sold for what it will bring. ‘This week 2,000 Another Kate War. CnaTTANo0GA, Tenn., August 24—The Merchsuts’ and Miners' line of Loats have announced a round trip faro of $30.67 from Bostou and Providence via the Norfolk & East Tennessee road to Chattanooga and re- turn on the occasion cf the meeting of the so- ciety of the Army of the Cumberland in Chattanooga September 15, 10 and 20. _This has been met by tho Louisville & Nashville with a rate of 1 cent a mile to all brigades in Illinois and Indiana, and 1t is announced to-day that the Queen & Crescent will make thesame rate. This created great conster- nation in railroad circles, and it is probable all_the roads entering Chattanooga wll make the same rates. The Irrepressible Alton. KaNsAs Citv, August 20.—It was an- nounced here to-day that the Chicago & Alton railroad will hereafter take shipments of grain from points west of the [Mis souri river on the same basis that it has been carrying cattle from the same territory. That 1s, it will pay the full local tarift to the Kansas City and wake the rate from here to points east 80 small that, added to the local, it will make a rate as low'as any of the throgh lines. —— THE MIN G QUANDRY, Wages Too Low and Operators Power- less to Raise Them. - Crrcaco, 1L, August 24.—Judge Gould and Dr. Wines, appointed by Governor Fifer to investigate and report upon the northern Illinois mining troubles, have presented a voluminous report to the governor. They find it 1impossible for the miners to subsist upon the wages offered by the opera- tors, but decline to state any conviction that the present markev and controlling conditions will jnstify the operators in offering a higher rate of wages. They state that the facility with which coal can be mined m southern Illinois piaces the north ern Ihinois miners under a decided dis- advantage in the watter of wutput and wages. In the report of 12,000 the commis- sion fails to recommend any vanacea for the existing troubles and concludes with the re- flection that the situation is as hopeless as it 18 distressing. —— Business Troubles. Boston, August 24.—The meeting of the creditors of George W, Hollis, wool puller of Boston and Brighton, was held to-day. Hollis' statement showed his liabilities to be $1,103,000, of which #416,000 is contingent, consisting of indorsements of acco. woda- tion paper for which the holders received no consideration. Of the absolute liabilities £109,000 is secured. The total assets are 444,000, — Much Depends. CHAMBERLAIN, 8.

The delegates to the state convention are instructed to oppose constitutional prohibition, e Killed by the Cable, Kansas City, August 24.—Two fatal acei- dents occurred on the cable road this even- ing: Miss Mamie 1. Burlew, a music teacher, was run over and instantly killed. R. T. Hiude, recorder of deeds of the county, fell while alighting from @ car and was fatally injured, KILLED BY THE MOROR. Man Run Over ap Corby Sten Louis Anderson, a driver employed by the Consofidated Tank Liné company, was run over and killed by a motdr frain at Sixteenth and Corby streets last nlghyabout 110'clock. Anderson and a frignd named John Smith came out of a barber Shop near the corner, and after teasing a drunken mau who was on the sidewalk, started to run mcross the street. A motor train was coming south and was about thirty ¥ards from tho men when they started. A bystander statod that the train was running at the rate of twenty miles per hour. At any rate, the trainstruck Anderson, who was ahead, and knocked him down, afterwards runnitg over him and go- ing fifty foev before it could bo stopped. Anderson was badly cut up. Hoth legs were broken near the thigh and he was cut and mashed about the groin. His head and face were also badly bruised. The injured man iived about half an hour after the accident, but did not recover con- sciousness enough to talk. He was taken to his home Sixteenth street, near Corby. Coroner Drexel was summoned after the man had died. The deceased was & about 26 yeurs, He le child. The name of the motor man and conductor coutd not be learned; the motor car wus number 7, and the trail car number 24 THE COUNCIL, axtnnnlh and arried man aged es a wife and one Hascall and Ford Ourry Down the Fire and Potice Commiss on. A special session of the city council was held last might. The fight between the Mayor Broatch faction, headed by Mike Lee, and the opposition, was more sharply out- lized than for many months. An ordinance regulating bill posting was introduced. Iu provides for a license fee of $100 yearly, and excepts merchants and mechanics of Omaha advertising their own business. An ordinance regulating the ercction of awnings was ordered engrossed. Among the public improvement ordinances passed were those creating a paving distriot of Twenty-firat avenuo between St. Mary's avenue and Howard, and ordering Heed and Smith streets graded. Haskell and Ford opposed the ordinance regulating streot sprinkling. The ordinance introduced to regulate this matter places the control in the hands of the fira and police com- missioners. Haskell said that if Thayer was 1o be given control of Omaha street sprini- ling the council mizht as well resign at onee. Ho rigorously assaulted the fire and potice commission, charging _cowardice and du- plicity against them. Ford and Lowrey ap- plauded to the echo. Only a bare quorum was present. A Generons Gift.

The Governor of Clifornia Says 1t's a Burning Disgrace. Sacramexto, Cal, August 24.—Governor Waterman to-day wrote a letter to Attorney (General Johnsox, of uumrnm. in which he Bays: “The arrest of Junlcc Field, of the su- preme court of the United States, on the un- supported oath of a woman who on the very Quy the oath was taken, and often before, threatened his life, will be a burning dis- grace to the state unless disavowed. I therefore urge upon you the propriety of at once instructing the district attorney of San Joaquin county to dismiss the unwarranted Pproceedings agaiust him.” Upon receipt of this letter, Attorney Gen- eral Johnson wrote to the district attorney, stating that in view of the fact that there is no evidence implicating Justice Field in the shooting of Judge Terry, public justice de- mands that the charge made against him be dismissed. If any evidence comes up here- after 1wplicating any person in the affair, the district attorney of course can proceed against such person in the usual manner. HOWARD, THE OUTLAW. Governor Buckner Requested to kur- nish Troops for His Capture. LovisvILLE, August 24.—Judge Boyd, of the Fifteenth judicial district, mn which Har- lan county is situated, came here to-day to request Governor Buckner to send troops to arrest Wilson Howard, the leader of the gang of outlaws who killed four citizens last Tuesday. Juage Boyd said troops were nec- essary Lo capture the outlaw and their pres- ence would be essential at court in order that the law might be enforced. Governor Buckuer is of the opinion that a strong posse would do more good than troops. The Chiet of the Crows Murdered. CH104G0, August 24.—A special from Chey- cnne, Wyo., suys White Horse, chief of the Crow Indian tribes, has been murdered by some unknown person, His remains were found a day or two ago badly decomposed in the Yellowstone river.

FaAmpUry, Neb., August 24—[Special Tel- egram to Tne Bee,]—About two hundred Gormans celebrated to-day the golden wed- ding of Hiram Junker, a farmer near town. A long procession, neaded by the Plymouth band paraded the streets, A genuine Dutch top finished the ceremonies to-nignt. A Famous Vicnna Cah. Vienna is determined to acquire a fame for cabmen and for ¢ Pall Mall Gazatte. Its efforts began with the tragedy in which Bratfisch played u striking role. They are con- tinued up to date in the comedy of cab No. 652, That dramatic vehicle has arrived in Paris and a considerable crowd collected to witness its entry into the capital. A journalist named Loewy hired it in Viennaand told the driver to drive to Paris. It wasan important hir- ing.and the drive togk twenty-one days. The cab, when it reached the gate of Vincennes, had done some 1,250 kilome- tres, and had been on the road since the 2d of the month. The feat was almost annlh'mnv and the cab ought to have a place noxt the Bonaparte carringe at Mme, Tussaud’s. Two horses carried this growler, which was very nearly de- stroyed in a thunder-storm at Straus- burg. The driver has become a hero with the Parisian populace. He does not understand a word of French, but he can smile, and has alrendy been set down ns wmy aud amiable. If he har- nessed n black charge to No. and drove through the Eiysian Fields ac- companied by M. Paulus, there might be a revolution., Indeed. as it is, the fame of a brave general seems to be rather eclipsed. In the mean time, here in London, there has been a meeting of the board of directors at the office of one of our ruilvmi companies. It was thought that their monopoly had been infringed, But they have comne tri- umphantly out of um ordeal, The secre- tary has been able to announce that the company possesses an engine that goes slower than most horses, and several carriages much less comforable than AMONG THE SLUMS OF PARIS. Out-of-the-Way Placss in the Gay French Oapital A BROTHERHOOD OF BEGGARS. Prayers are Written For Themn by One of Their Numbar Spooially Appointed—The Gatherers of Megos. In the Parisan Slums. Despite the constant demolitions which transform old ruins into stately houses, narrow and unhealthy streets into splendid avenues and boulevards, thoroughly aired and well shaded; de- spite the progress of our civilization, and perhaps, also, because of it, Paris, the capital of the world, still preserves, in out-of-the-way corners, public estab- lishments having their original and altogether typieal character, derived either from their situation or their shady chentele, writes G. Mace, former- ly chief of the Paris detectives, to the Globe-Democrat. The best known and most largely pat- ronized of thesa cabarets is located at No. 57 Rue Galande. Tt is styled the Chateau Rouge, or the Guillotine, be- cause the facade is painted the color of ox blood. The immense porte cochere which gives nccess to this cubaret is lordly in appearance and the court yard is very spacious. To the left is a mon- umental flight of steps and the arched windows are of a prodigious height, while here and there in the walls are grated openings. This house was formerly the habitation of the Duchess de Beaufort, otherwise Gabrielle d’Fs- tress. the favorite of the popular King Henri IV, The garden of this hotel has been replaced by a building in which a num- ber of Swiss glaziers lodge in company. They are steady and economical people, living in common to reduce their ex- penses as much as possible. Never en- tering that part of the Chateau Rouge where drink is sold, they see the evil of drunkenness near at hand and studious- ly avoid it Should you enter the wine shop as an observer 1t is advisable to take cigar- ettes with you, for the people you will find ther will certainly demand them of you. They solicit tobacco and brandy, but never bread, for bread is with them altogether a secondary con- sideration. In the first room you will counter, but no seats; but the patrons of the establishment do notlike to drink there—they prefer to absorb their potations in those two apartments to_the left, ornwmented with mural paintings in_a tolerable state of pre- servation., These roomsure spacious, but very ill lighted. Nothing to eat is sold here, but the waiters willingly loan those who bring their meals from with- out nicked plates, forks with the prongs broken off, and knives rounded at the point, the forks and kpives being thus treated in orderto protect the tables from mutilation and prevent, when a quarrel breaks out, the opening of “human buttonholes” in those bodies which have almost nothing human about them. PAY IN ADVANCE. The house is run by a superintendent, the proprietor appearing only to pocket the receipts, which are always abun- dant. Here everybody pays in advance, nothing beiug delivered without the money. The place is the rendezvous of the lowest bohemians of the people, the special refuge of hundreds of idlers practicing shady professions which the correctional police cannotalways define. You will see that some of these ragged individuals, with visages reddened by the abuse of drink, have airs of distinc- tion. Indeed, nota few of them are ed- ucated men who have wasted fortunes in gambling and dissipation. ‘When you go in you will be expected to buy something, but you need not drink it. You can leave it on the table, and the patrons of the house will fight for it after your departure. Among these patrons is the ex-¢lerk of anotary. He isa 1pm‘snn of great erudition, and invariably uses correct language. In- vaeterate habits of intoxication have brought him down to his den. For a glass of wine he will put his knowledge and services atthe disposal of any one. It is he who writes the applications for admission to the hospitals, and at need, he fabricates false papers for rich pro- fessional mendicants. He has often been arrested for drunkenness, when letters, written in gaod style and ad- dressed to wealthy notavilities, solicit: their aid, have inggriably becn found upon his person. The women who frequent the Chateau Rouge can better be imagined than de- goribed, A little further away. in the room at the back, assembled the criers, or rather the “‘karkers,” distrib- uters of newspapers, who howl the sen- sational news in every possible tone— the crime of yesterday, the robbery of last night, the scandal of to-day, with ‘*‘curious, horrible and latest details.” Beside them, less numerous, are in- stalled the llad singers,” gutter tenors, court yard baritones and cabaret bassos, who toil seriously only on Mon- day, that Sunday of the working popu- lation, One of the most peculiar characters of the Chateau Rouge is the *‘deputy,” who professes to be a convict returned from Noumea, where, by the way.he has never set foot. His manner of operat- ing when strangers are present is worth following. He leans upon an enormous stove and talks for drinks,whnich he will begin by ordering. After a look uround he says: find the THE DF “Citizens, there are strangers among us. They are welcome. We ure all brothers. It is a returned convict who tells you so—a returned conviet who is proud of his misfortune: Iinvite you, citizens, to share with me the wine of friendship. Waiter, bring the wine and glasses to this stove, which shali be the altar of fraternity. “I don’t ask you, citizen, whether you belong in Paris, the country or foreign lands, but T warn you that I don’t like aristocrats. I, who sveak to you, have had the high honor of knowing Roche- fort, that lion of exile—a real brother, He shared my lot; we ate together the bitter bread of convicts. Aud he was not proud—many times have I gr his hand. Let us drink to him, citi- Y8 SPEECH, Whuu the deputy speaks the e lishment will depart from its rul give credit to the strangers, but they are expected to pay for everything he orders before the ymwu. and hewill go on ordering as long as they remain. Another cabaret worthy of attention is the Marche de la Regie, where as- semble the gatherers of cigar and ciga- rette stumps, one of the thousand little occupations of the low-grade Parisians. In the argot slang they arve called the gatherers of megos. These individuals who are seen walking along the ter- races of cafes, with eyes fixed upon the ground, form & sort of & corporation of considerable extent. When they meet at the Marche de la Regie the price of their merchandise is fixed according as ;hln harvest has been more or less fruit- ul. Visiting the establishments we pone- trate into a small room filled with human beings. who arve seated in front of tables upon which each has deposited the product of his search of the day and evening. The chief of the gatherors of mogos examines the harvest while distribut- ing the posts for the following day. In his note-book are set down the dates of the events which will attract the peo- ple to such and such a point—the woalthy marriages, the important burials, the church fetes; in fact all occurrences at which custom prohibits smoking. The hours of work vary according to the place. The daily gain por man is about two francs, . One has, besides, the opportunity to chew and smoke at will. The general harvest is sad out on a special table, The best cigar stumps selocted first and marked at from 20 centimes a bundle. The rest are putat 10 centimes a handful. TIE PURCHAS] OF CIGAR STUMPS, Those who purchase cigar stumps are mostly indigent old men and nendy workmen, Marc| de 1a Regie is not the only establishment whero the gatherers of megos assemble, but it is one of the most frequented. The trade in the waste of cigars and tobacco is not confined to the retail line; there are people ir the wholesale branch also. The latter generally deal with cafe waiters, who turn over to them cigars almost whole, Well cut and neatly urranged, they are sold in the workslops of the faubourgs at from 210 3 francs a bundle. When strangers enter the March do 1a Regie no o '8 the slightest at- tention to them, An opaque smoke pre vents them from distinguishing persons and things three paces aistant; a biting and insupportable odor poisons the at- mosphere and chokes one, whilsta thick mist covers the panes of the window. The cashier, quite a pretty girl, scems to be perfectly at ease in this vitiated air, All sorts of drinks are sold here, but the establishment has a special coffce at 10 centimes a cup, 15 contime s to the rich men of the place, who are able to treat themsel to glasses of the best champagne. This coffee is made from the refuse coming from the great houses, which permits the vender to sell ata low price and yot make his profit. The seats is this establishment are exceedingly primitive. They consist merely of |||I\nIm running along the ta- bles and nailed to stakes driven into the floor, which is simply well-trodden earth. This house was formerly a lodg- ing house where people slept on a litter of straw rarely renewed. Placed like horses in o stable, the sleepers were separated from each other by a rope which limited the space to be occupied by each, Asa measure of health oue of the prefects of police wiped out this rope mght lodging, the last of its kind. spi anger is in the Marche de la Rl'"u‘ during its AP occupation by the garette stumps and v.hon he gets outside the air of the street will seem perfumed compared with that within this curious establishment.

HE WAS DELUGED WITH SWILL.. His Intended’s Mother Cowldn't Stand His Fine Raiment—The Young Lindy in Despair <A Modern Zantippe Doused With Swill, A special dispateh to the World has alrendy told how & young man at St Paul, Minn., the cousin of an ex-prosis dent of tho United States, was doused with swill at Isdaile, Wis., by the lady he intended to make his mother-in- law. Further details of the catastrophe are printed by the Chicago Herald, as follows: In the above name M. Dayton with girl seventeen or village resides I, his family. Alice, & ightoen years old, is the youngost givl, and she has won an enviable local reputation for good looks, real or imaginary, as the case may be. Never was o mother’s daughter in any family thought more ot than is young Alice. Mrs. Dayton is not of a very philoso- phical turn of mind, and having forgot- ten the time when she herself was | young, has asusmed the responsibility of ncting s referee in her daughtor’s love matches. A short distance from the Daytons lives John Sadder, a nice yonng man, who has a large farm and a bright future before him, He is high up in society, and has the hoartsof many buxom country lnsses at his command. John has for several been paying marked attention to the village belle, and the young Indy has not baen averse. Mr. and Mrs. ¢ton were unanimous in their opin- ion that John would make a model hus= hand some day, and that any one ought to be proud to have such an illustrious son-in-law. Last fall Alice went to St. Paul to brush up a little on etiquette and also to take an unprejudiced, mdl-‘)nndunt and impartial veep at the world before taking upon heesolf the duties of mar- ringe. At the saintly city Alice’s de- votion to John was somewhat obliterated on her forming an acquaintance with an accomplished young man who had just finished his education to prepare for the ministry. His social rank is above the aver: ces his genealogy through Nonh back to Adam,and among hig modern kinsmen he boasts of an ex- dent of the United Sta as his cousin, When Alice returned to her home this spring she had apparently left the greater part of her heart with this St. Paul gentleman and had taken along with herapart of his to restore the equilibrium. As a result a very sweet and voluminous correspondence between the two opened its batteries on the Esdaile postoffice, increased its reve- nues and raised iv from the fourth clasg to the third class standard. Some time ago John Sadder, Alice's { first beau, “*smelt a rat,” and the more he ‘*‘smelt” the sadder he grew. By some means unknown he managed to keep posted on the fact whenever Alice received a letter from her St. Paul lover, Finally John conld restrain himself no longer, and going to his prospective feather-in-law (though prospects for a father-in-law were not very bright just then) he informed him about the matter. “The letters grow 1nr§m~ and longer, and there is more and more love in tnem every time,” John complained, “and she receives so awfuily many, too; ° there must be a screw loose some place.” At the suggestion of Mr. Dayton the two repaired to the postoflic to pass judgment upon the situation, and to *work up” the case, “Any letter for Alice Dayton?” The postmistress responded by delivering a letter to the above address. On_ being opened what should be found but sixteen sheets of note paper, with closely written pages, from her St. Paul admirer. Then there were many sweet passages on these pages, inter- woven with poetry, and John became desper y jealous when he read them. “There’s no use talking,” he said. “I'm a goner for sure,” and said some limentary things about v youth. Mr. Dayton, however, assured the impatient lover that he had nothing to fear from those quarters, as puavental mm"mfiy kept vigil over Ali heart and han Returning home Mr. Dayton wrote the St. Paul lover about as follows: \ Dear Sir: We being the parents of Alice Dayton, with whom you have so long corre- | sponded, it is nothing more than proper to you an_oppertun 10 visit us at your rliest convenience and account to us for ts of your letters to our duughter, tfully, 1 Wire, | The message had the desi effect. Not many suns had set before the Paul man stood at the Dayton resi- dence and knock at the door for ad- mission, He wasindeed a nice youn, man and he bore unmistakable signg of culture and refinement imprinted on his silk hat, spike-tailed coat and a patent shirt front, He wore kid gloves, 100, and, although this custom is not strictly adhered to among farm hands in the rural districts, who can blame him thercfor, when he came with the serious intention of being offered in inge the hand of Miss Alice The young man was cordianlly re- ceived by Alice, but had the !ull()w known how the wrath in a most lite poured upon him he would rather have let Alice und all go to the dogs than to have remained. ‘While the two were enjoying thems- whcnn the parlor as best they could Mr, appet |ul in the door.
