Charley Sweezey, the Union Pacitic en. gineer who figured in the freight wreck at Fremont Saturday morning, in which an Elkborn and a Union Pacifio freight train were badly demolisbed and two lives wero fost, has arrived in Owaka. Concerning the wreck he said : “When we approached the crossing Iap- lied the air brakes, but they failed 1o worl then discovered that the Kl horn train was crossing, and I signalled the conductor and brakesmen for brakes, ‘but they failed to respoud. 1 reversed my engine as soon as | discovered that the air brakes hud gone back on me, and if the trainmen had done their duty, and answered my signal for brakes, there would have been no accident. At the point where the acci- dent occurred there is a down grade, and not having any help I could not hold the train back with my engine.” Buperintendent Resseguie, of the Union Pacific, bas decided to institute a rigid in- vestigation, and has already suspended tho conductor and brakemen that were on the train. As yot nothiog has been doue with Bweezey, and it is thought that he will be exonerated. The fact that he remained on his qnfihu at the hazzard of his life, together with bis past record as a reliable engineer, will, it is thought, be suffivient to couvince the officials that he was in no way to blame, 33 - ‘A Newspaper Man Married.

The Packing House Boys Enjoy a Day in the Woods, The Armour-Cudahy Company's picnic at Waterloo yesterday was a most enjoyable affair. One thousand people were present, and everyone enjoyed themsclves to the ut- most. Displays of prowess in the various lines of packing house industry were in- dulged in to the great edification of the veople present. At 9:45 a. . a train of Afteen cars, includ- ing & beautfully decorated rofrigerator car loaded with refreshments, pulled out of the Union Pacific depot with the Hibernian band playing a merry tune, and aided by the cheers of the happy picnickers, Conductor Billy Orr had more business on_his hauds than a cran- berry merchant, and flew through the train like & stroak of gronsed lightning trying to wet all his tickets in. Tho first event of the day was the ham wing contest. The re Lwo contestants, T, ¥. Kinsella and T. J. Flaherty, The former sewed up twenty-five hams in 18:23 minutes, the latter in 18:25, John Hogan and Otto Bayersdorfer then competed for the box making pri: The first eight boxes fell to the ground simulta~ neously, but Hogan gained ground and won the §20 prize in 21:13 minutes, with Bayers- dorfer, but six seconds .behind, Then came the great event of the day, the cattle killing and dressing tournament. The contestants were the champions in their line, vLarry Noonan of the Armour-Cudahy com- ‘mny, and G. H. Boust of the Swift company. _arry Noonan is the champion beef dresser of the world to.day. He has beaten all rocords, 'Tho coutest Wwas for points under the Washburn rules, used in Chicago. Noonan, who is known as ‘‘the priest’’ donned his slickers and tackled the first _ swer which was killed, aod in 7 minutes and 87 seconds after time was called the carcass was skinned and dressed for the market. His contestant made the same time, but lost two points, not having taken off the hide cleanly and making too many cleaver cuts. The ‘priest’’ won $50 and Bayersdorfer §20. After this came the young ladies’ foot race for which was won by Miss Anna Pleuler. The fat lndies’ race could find no entries and was abandoned. Frank Brubaker, of Omaha, won the sack race for #. The lat men’s race for $10, was won by Captain W. B. Bell, with many puffs and much per- spiration, The greased pig, white with re- fined lard, was turced loose in the crowd, and peopie who bad Sunduy clothes on sought the topmost tree branches. P. Hickey tinally grabbed his pigship by the hind legs und won him. ‘The baby show on the daocing platform attracted an enthusiastio crowd, and after much econsultation and wise shaking of heads the commiwtee, Messvs. Bell, O'Keefe and Echlin, blushingly decided to award the prize to Master Tommy Ennis, a blonde youngster of eight months, The day passcd very quietly and happily. One of the chief attractions for the creme of the male portion of the assembly was Murphy and Orr's garden, a bower in which thoy lingered nearly all day, listening to the music of the band and the babbling of the fountains, The train returned to Omaba in two sections av 7 o'clock in the evening, bearing home a tired but happy crowd. LTmER SHOT BY A SIMPLETON, Two Men Feel His Bullets and One Man Will Die. Yesterday evening a shooting affray in which two men were injured, occured at Ruser’s park, outside tbe city limits, which may result fatally for one of the victims, Frank Wagner, an omploye of Oscar Picard, Peter Ruser and some other men were sitting in front of Henry Ruser’s sa- loon. Wagner snal »d the hatof a man named Sewell, and refused to return it. Sewell seems to have been the butt of the ueighborhood and to have been subjected to all kinds of annoy- ances by those who understood the sim- plicity of his nature. In this case, Fowever, the snatching of the hat and the subsequent teasing annoyed Sewell to that degree that he drew ‘a re- volver, and remarking, *I guess I'll usethis on some one,” shotat Wadgner. The bullet siruck him on the fifth rib and glanced off, inflicting only o flesh wound. He then shot at Peter Ruser and the ball entered the abdomen. passed around and lodged under the skia near the spinal col- umo. The bullet was subsequently extracted but it was thought Ruser would die. The latter 18 u son of Henry Ruser, pro- prietor of Ruser's garden,and is but nineteen vears of age, After the shooting Sewell ran for the woons and disappeared, and at last accounts had not been arrested. e Marvelous gymnasts at Eden Musee to-day. — . A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. Mrs. Charles Tietz and Two Children Narrowly Kscape Death, ‘The palatial residence of Charles Tietz, corner of Military and Wadsworth avenues, was converted into a bospital yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Tietz and two children were out for a drive, and In passing along St. Mary’s avenue the team became frightened and dosted ulong the paved street at a frightful pace. As the Sixteenth street crossing was reached the vehicle was upset and its occupants thrown out with considera- ble violonce. Assistance was rendered and the victims were conveyed to an adjucent pharmacy. Mrs, Tietz was badly bruised about the body, received several severe cuts io the face, and her left leg was pronounccd broken in the region of the knee. One of the children was cut about the head and a finger was severed from the right hand. The other occupant, a child four years of age, escaped with a slight cut in tho head. Mr. Tietz, who is proprictor of the park which bears his name, was notifled and at once provided a conveyauce for his family to their home, where up to a late hour they were resting quietly.

Albert Campbell, a brick mason, living near the corner of Sixteenth and Mason streets, wus arrested last night for being drunk and abusiog his family, He has been in the habit ot getting drunk every Saturday night, and on Sunday he drinks aicohol to keep it up. As a consequence he becomes crazy for the time being, and raises cain around home, Last night he was no exception to the rule, and his howls und swearing aroused the whole neighborhood. His wife retreated to the upper floor, but this did not suit the ideas of the lord and master, and ho amused himself by tearing up the few bed clothes the family posscssed. When his wife ap- peared upon the scene to remonstrate, he picked up & rocking chair und threw it at !’mr‘ afterwards striking her several blows with his band. The policeman on the via- duct was attracted by the noise of the racker and took Cawpbell in charge. Mrs, Campbell states that her husband earns good wages, but is very niggardly in providing for the house, although be doesn't hositate to spond #5 or $10 every Saturday for drink. ey Another Man Gone Wrong. J. Tinsler has been employed as a packer for the Ferguson furniture house at 1111 Far- nam strect. When he came across @ nico piece of furniture or bric-a-brac which he thought would be broken i packing or transportation, he would carry it over to his lodping bouse, Mr, Ferguson's suspicions wero aroused by the disappearance of a number of articles and he called on bis cmploye yesterday worning to consult with him as o & method of ferreting out the rascally thief. When he entered Mr. ‘finsier’s room he was struck with the idea that the carpes looked very fawiliar, Next his eye rested on a handsome center table which he imagwed bad ouce adorned his storeroom. From that his eye passed successively W & louuging ehair, the bed and finally o some dishes which were la the room. All bore the same familiar look and Mr. Ferguson concluded he would give his employe au opportunity to explain the situ- ation to Judge Berka. Consequently Mr, Tinsler exchanged his luxurious easy chair for the soft side of & plauk in the bastile. TWORACE WARS THREATENED Negroes Massing in Mississippl and West Virginia. THE MILITIA ORDERED OUT. The Blackmen Outnumber the Whites fix to One—Blood- £hed at Gouldsboro, Louisiana. An Epidemic of Race Troubles. GuENADA, Miss,, Sept. 1.—A telegram re- ceived here this morning says that negroes were massing near Shellmound, Miss., and conflict between the whites and blacks was expected. Help was called for, as the negroes outnumbered the whites six to one. A vol- unteer company of about forty men was raised here 1 an hour or two and left on the 12:15 train for the scene of the trouble, under commana of J. C. Long- street. A company of cavalry will leave to- night. A aispatch received from J. C, Longstreet and C. L, Towne asksus to send all availa- ble men at once, By order of the governor the Winoua rifies, accompanied by several citizens, loft on a special train at 2 p. m. to- day for Greenwood, from which place they will go to Shellmound to aid in supprossing the trouble. NEW Onieaxs, Sept. 1.—A Greenwood special says: For the last month a negro numen Cromwell has been organizing, it was thought, an alliance in this part of the delta. This week & vuumber of negroes belonging to the alliance demanded that some one besides Cromwell be placed ut the head of the organization, as thay clanned that he was an ex-convict. A majority of the nogroes of the alliance voted in favor of Cromwell. The next day Crom- well was ordered to leave the country. He showed the letter to the negroes and _the eame evening the whites at Shellmound received warning letters from a party of negroes who signed them- selves *“Three thousand armed men.” They said that they proposed to_stand by Crom- well, and that if any efforts were made to disturb him they would kill, burn and des- troy Shellmound. About seventy-five armed negroes ciame into town und talked very loud and in a_threatening manner, Last night tho sheriff received information from Sunnyside, about fifteen miles above Shellmound, that there wero 500 armed ne- groes who were massed in Johnston’s tields, near there, and needed help. He wired the governor the situation und asked for troops. The telegram was promptly answered by Governor Lowrey in person, brivging five companies of militia. The govérnor has sent two companies to Sunnyside to roport to the sheriff, who went up there this morn- ing to see if he could do avything with the negroes. A steamboat running between here and Sharkeye has just come in, bringing & num- ber of women and cbildren. There have been several reports from the scene of trouble this eveaing, one of which was that the ne- groes had left the vicimty of Sunnyside, breaking up in small bands of twenty or thirty, and seemed to be sulky. Another Riot. GrerNa, La., Sept. L—This morning between 2 and 3 o'clock, as an excursion train loaded with colored people neared the Gouldsboro depot, one of the excursionists in jumping off, fell. Some unknown person shouted: “Loolk ut the black The negro drew a pistol and fired fuor or five shots in rapid succession, one of which struck a white man named Miller. Then the shoot- ing became goneral, some four or five hun- dred shots being fired inside of fifteen minutes. A terrible panic ensued, women and children running in all directions shouting and screaming. Ed. Levy, colored, living in Algiers, was shot in the left arm, and a colored woman named named Fleming was fatally wounded. About 4 o'clock this moraing a light, was seen in the sky botween Algiers and Jeffer- son parishes. ‘The Algiors fire department went to the scene and found a large number of men armed with muskets, and a negro church on fire. There was no water, and the edifice was destroyed, Several negroes who formed a part of the excursion party were interviewed to-day, and stute that when the train was nearing the Gouldsboro depot it was fired on by men secreted along the railroad, and as soon as the train stopped a general stampede took place. It is difficult to locate a single porson who withessed the begiuning of tho shoot~ ng. Hen Watkins (colored), residing in Goulds- boro, was shot while lying in bed ut home after the general affray, by some unknown persons, who fired through the window. He was seriously wounded. The stories of the row and its origin differ very widely. The nogroes say that before the arrival of the train _there was a large force of armed white men in the vicinity of the depot who opened fire on the colored people while the excursionists were getting off. The white men's version of the affair, of course, is entirely different. They state that there was only some half a dozen concernad, and that the shooting was commenced by the negroes before the train had stopped. ‘Two shots were fired from the train they say, and a_white boy named William Miller was shot in the faco by a negro in getting off the train, A police oficer, @ - brother of the wounded man, agtempted to arrest the shooter, when the negroes opened firo and the affriy became general. ‘Phe whites abont Gouldsboro are disin- clined to talk about the riot. Trouble in West Virgini Prrrssuro, Sept. 1.—A special from ‘Wheeling, W. Va,, says: There is & good deal of anxiety over the news of a threat ened race war in New river valley, Fayetto county. Information from the scene of the threatened trouble is meagre, but1s of such B nature as to give rise to fears that a serious breach of the peace will occur. The trouble had iis origin Friday evening when 8 negro went iuto the store of Beury, Cooper & Co., at Echo, und, brandish- ing a club, threatened to do up the entire force of employes. All efforts to pacify him were futulle and one of the clerks, after re- celving & bad blow from the club, shot the negro, killing him tantly. Echo is the center of & considerable colored population and last night informa- tion was received at Charleston that a mob of negroes had collocted on New river and that @ concerted omslaught on the whites was in contemplation. Orders were received by the Charleston hard- ware stores for all the Winchester rifles available, and a considerable shipment of these arms was made, The citizens of Charleston are also gothering arms, and it is apprehended that the militia would be or- dered out. Nothing aedditional had been heard up to 10 o'clock to-night. — Grand reopening at Eden Musee to- day. ay i § SAMOAN NEWS. A SBanquet to Admiral K Malietoa's Jump.

A great crowd congre- gated at the Adpbt to see the noted bandit, Holzhay aid fiit rblish their scrutiny, and re- marked to the pffjcer with him : “If 1 had my guns and was free they wouldn’t be so anxious to get close to me. To_the officers who guarded him last night Holzhay admitted that he was the man who went through the Milwaukee & Northern wrain near Ellis junction last May, and after- ward held up the passengers on a Wisconsin Central train, and robbed several voaches in northern Wisconsin, besides committing many depredations, The driver of the Gogeble stage, which was robbed last weok, was brought. here to- day by tlie sheriff and immediately identified him as the man who *did the job.” ‘Lhe only regret Holzhay expresses in cou- nection with his criminal career is that the two officers at Republic effected his capture 80 easily, He says ho was determined not to be taken alive and had he had the slightest inkling of their purpose when they were ap- proaching him ho would havo shot them both dowr., The proof agaivst the man without his admission to the officers is complete, and unless he escapes or suicides he is booked for a life term in state prison.

There will b an imposing parade in the forenoon, aud in the evening thero will be mimic represen- tation of the battie of Vicksburg, at the Zoo, conducted by Crocker PostG. A. R., with a oycling exhibition at Athletic park, and a general fllumination. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings will be especially de- voted to the carnival of his majesty, Seni One Sed. There will be the finest spectacu- lar displays over scen in Iowa. Miles of gas pipe have been stretched along the curbing, from which innumerable flames will issue. Arohes of colored lights, and special designs in illuminations have been erected at street intersections. The whole city will be i a blaze of light each of the three evenings. Tuesday and Thursday nights will ba devoted especially to the trades display. This has been arranged by the business men to represent the commercial and industrial interests of the city. There will be at least sixty floats in line with strik- 10g dispiays. Other features of the proces- sion are dosigned to represent the growth and development of Iowa. Primitive times will be ropresented by a band of Indians from the Ilowa reservation, old-fashioned stage coaches that preceded the railways, and other signs of frontier lite, Wednes day evening will be given over to a parade of military and civic organizations, and a general illumination as on the other even- ings.

They believe that the carnival will be a great beune- fit to Des Moines, and become in time as famous as the renowued Mardi-gras or veiled proplet’s display. Nothing of the kind has ever before been attempted in Iowa, and the prospect is that the largest crowd will be gathered here that ever assembled in the state. The exbibits for the state fair are now in place ready for the time of practical opening to-morrow. In some lines the exhibits are larger than ever before. This is especially true of fine hogs, there eing 1,500 on exhi- bition Axtell and Allerton have arrived and are the centers of great interest.

It shows better than the report of any other oficer tne real financial standing of the state, The auditor in Jowa has much to do with the collection of stato funds, as woll as with their exvenditure. Ho keeps prodding the county treasurers to send in their re- ceipts from taxes, 5o that he really has helped materially in getting Iowa's floating indebt- edness all wiped out. The present report shows that at the beginning of the biennial period there was in the state treasury the sum of $209,109.01. The amount received from all sources during this period was $3,- 450,811, which added to the first awnount gave atotal to be accounted for of $3,719.920.01. Of these receints, $2.346,543.71 came from the 2i5 mill state levy, $28,724.15 from inter- est on delinquent taxes, §149,235.43 from in- surance companies for taxes, $53,325.75 from fees to the auditor’'s office, $12,601 from the secretary of state's office in foes, aod & 239.41 from fees recoived by the clerk of the supreme court. Tho total disbursements during the biennial period were i 1850, of $207,513.27, divided among the funds as follows: General revenue, $5,181.67; ag- riculiural college endowment, $261,15.23 swamp lands indemnit, $1,166.57. ‘The auditor makes an cstimate of the re- ceipts for the next two years at $3,152,057. He estimates that the total expenditures, re- quired by law, will amount to §2,521,280. ‘'his would leave only 630,777 for the appro- priations to bo made by the next general as- sembly, But this estimate of recoipts con- templates & 23 mill state levy for 1890 and only 2 mill levy for 1891. The extra half mill was put on several years ago to raise funds for the completion of the capitol. After it was uot necded for that purposo the legislature thoaght it wise to contiuue it, to afford money for some new institutions like the sofdiera” home, and to help wipe out the quicker the floating indebtedness of the state, Tho half mill rests so lightly upon the individual taxpayer, but in the nggregate brings in a very convenient sum for the in- creasing veeds of the state, that it Is prob- ablo that it may bo contiuued. An offort will undoubtedly be made to have the next legislature mako o generous and becoming appropriativn for the soldicrs’ monument. ‘o subject bas been agitated for years, and now that the state is out of debt it is thought w be o good time to begin the work, If that is done, and if some of the state institu- tions receive the buildings which it is claimed they greatly need, it is likely that the aualtor's estimate of the receipts will not bolarge enough, and the extra hait mill sy be added to the levy both years of the com- ing biennlul period. The auditor's report shows that the state receives quite & hand- some mcome from fees paid by imsurance companies. During the last biennial period the fire fnsurance companies val fees to the amount of &4)054, the Lfe, accident, fidelity and casualty companies paid to the amount of £5,338.50; the life ana accident assessment companies paid £2,354.50, These sums, with tho fees paid by othor companies not_classified, raised the total in- crease from this source, during the two years, to §52,147.25, One statement in the report shows the amount of state and local taxes levied in the several counties forthe year 1888, as reported 10 the state_suditor, by the various county auditors. Polk county (izeluding the citvof Des Moines) leads in the amount of taxes raised for all purposes, with the sum of £320,975 Woodoury ' county (including Sioux City) comes next with $727,606.04, and Pottawatismio (including Council Bluffs) comes third, ite taxes for ali purposes amounting o §070,355.55. Some of the other counties in order 'are Des Moines, Clinton, Dubuque, £cott, Lee and Ling, This, Polk county, therefore raised last vear for taxes over #100,000 more than any other counly in the state, while of the group of counties last named no one of thew raised one-half as much s this. These figures give some idow of the counties in which the improvements are being made, and_vroperty is advancing in value, ‘That makes the three cities that haye tha hest showing in this respect, Des Molnes, Sioux City and Council Bluffs, in the order named. Prohibition in Keokuk Des Moixes, Ia., Sept. 1.—| Special to Tig Bee.|—Ap attempt is to be made to enforce the prohibitory law in Keokuk, & city &t present under democratic administration. When John Irwin, & republican, was mayor, he determined that the law should be en- forced, and he did enforce it, closing all the saloons of the city, Hut he was defeated for re election last spring, and the saloon men belped to elect a democrat, expecting that they would b left alone.

This plan has boen tried in some of the river cities. A Tramp's Villainous Ingratitude.

Previous to this time he hud been the pastor of a church av Keuosha, Wis,, so that he is familiar with the west. Mr, Mano's dis- courses from tne pulpit of the Unitarian church have been widely read and their author's opinions have been eaxerly sought on many theological and philosophical questions, His sermons are always enriched with a wealth of simile drawn largely from nature and from his scientific researches which mukes them especially valuable for their literary merit. Mr. Mann has been active in the academy of science, devoung considerable time to astronomical study. He has also been a memver of the Human3 so ciety, and was the founder of the local Soci- ety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chil dren. After resigning from the pastorate of the Unitarian church a year ago ho spent several months in Europe.
