James H, McShane desires to be placed in oharge of the city’s finances by the demo- crats and is backed in the aspiration by the First national bank, of which his brother, John A.

In the event of his being unable to secure the nomi- mation, his support will be transferred to Jake Hungato, s running partner in the Omaba fair ussociation, Samuel De Nedrey, one of tho oldest mem- bers of the Typographical union in this city, is encouraged by friends and democrats in many parts of the city to aspire to the posi: ' He is a resident of the Heury Hornberger will serve the people of the Fourth ward if the nominating light- ning should strike him, Heis not anxious, however, to obtain the place.

Lot me show you, The saloon run b Toft on Fifteenth street, sout| of Farnam is authorized by a license which was transferred by Dan McCoy, who opened the place. The House of TLords saloon on Dodge street, opposite the postofiice, is now run by Doty & Darst, at leasy they bought the place with the licenss of Briggs, of the Stockyards Exchange. The Homestead sa- loon has been running about a mounth. The management of that did not pay $1,000 for riission for two months to sell ignor. C. S. Higgins got a license out in the name of Tom Foley, and paid him $100 for the use of his name, Now Mc- Guckin & Brandies are doing business at this sume place. The mayor's visits to that corner, too, show that he appreciates some- thing or somebody connecied with the lace. Hawloy & Athey have opened a sa- loon in & new place, but the firm now con- tains Athony instead of Dowd as formerly. Who authorized a chango in the license? *There are other features in connection with this matter which show an anxiety on the part of the mayor to enlist the saloon- keepars. The mayor knows that these licenses are trawsforred illegally from one mau 10 another. He knows that the Dia- mond is running two faro tables every night. But he does not molest the proprio- tors because these are political times, And yet, he did not hesitate to cancel the liconse of a young man which had been bought by the mort- . ed nome of the wother, becanse a saloon- per had sold some whisky to a spying po- liceman who claimed he wanted it for a sick mun, 1f that were doue to me, Ldon’t know ‘what I would do,” “Hut. say, did you hear of the break that ‘Vandervoort and his ‘man Friday’ Viheeler made at the ministerial association meeting Monday?

Omama, Nov. 10.—|To the Editor of Tue Bee: We desire to call the attention of the voters of the Seventh ward to the fact that a combine hes been formed in this ward between Mike Lee, who is to be chairman of the board of public works; Chaffee, who is to furnish lumber on all city contracts, and who now desires tne election of his running mate, Clayton, who is also in the lumber business, to serve as his colleague in the council for the Seventh ward. Also Paul Vandervoort, of Dodlin granite fame, and young Biendorff, who has just received from this combine over $12,000 aavance fees on architect plans for the city hall. T'his com- bine in secret caucus has mapped out a cam- campawn in the Seventh ward for the primary election tomorrow by which its Oown interests can be best subserved without consulting the electors in general in the ward. If the voters of the Seventh ward desire to protect their proerty interests and be rep- resentea in the council by men who care more for the public interest than self, let them turn out en masse and favor the un- pledged delexation composed of representa- tive men from all parts of the world as deie- Rates to the city convention, The election of adelegation suggested by this combine will be adetriment to the Seventh ward and the city of Omaha. There 18 & great deal more in this than the people see on the surface.

WRONG-SCENTED SLEUTHS, Some Have Thelr Coat Tails Lifted With Leather. The Chicago Inter-Ocean a day or two since 1n its report of the Cronin trial paid no small aviount of attention v Frank Murray, who is part owner of a saloon on Fourteenth street in this sity, and who, for a long time, lived in Chicago, He left there over two years ago and has since been residing in this city. In Chicago, the prevailing opinion is that Murray is a prominent member of the Clan-na-Gael, inasmuch as he knows sevoral of the parties who are now implicated in the Cronin murder, Shortly ufter the finding of Dr. Cronin's body the state’s attorneys concluded that perhaps Murray would be a valuable man for them to have during the trial, and they have accordinely sent detectives at numerous times to “pdmp’’ him for mformation. The first one came 10 the garb of & newe- paver man, and revresented that he was con- nented with one of the Omaha papers. He found Murray at home playing with his one- year-old child on the front porch. He ap- proached Murray cautiously, notebooi and pencil in hand, and after informing him that ho (the visitor) was a member of the repor- torial fraternity, asked for a private inter- view. As thers was noone at home except Murray and the baby, the former informed his visitor that he could “fire away,” as the child was never kuown to divulge a family secrot. - Whereupon the quasi newspaper man put A series of interrogations that would cause the reporter on the Arizona Kicker to blush,they were 80 ex- tremely ludicrous., Murray, to use his own expression, ‘‘tum- bled to his gama" and filled his questionsr 80 fuil of remarkablo tales regarding cattle raising in New Mexico that the fellow for o time belioved his informunt was daft. But when finally he believed the trick he had sought to play was of no avail he was much chagrined, “Your iittlo ruse might work” said Mur- ray, “but for the fact thit I know every newspaper man, reporter, or editorin Omaha. Hence I would ‘advise you to give your head a good bath.” “The Chicago Impersonator of Omaha re- porters then went homo. Detective No. 2 tried the traveling man’s rackot Ho overdid the matter, and his fate was sad. Murray didd’t kili bim und throw him in o sewer, or anything of that sort, but he inflicted the punishment usually bestowed upon small boys caught stealing fruit, a la boot. The fly cop came in while Murray was alone behind the bar, and inquired if Mr. Murray was in. Murray replied that he was, whereupon the stranger warmly grasped his hand, said he was glad to meet him, had heard of him 80 often in Chicago in connec- tion with the Cronin case, was a friend of the men who had killed the doctor, and wound up by inviting Murray to take a smile at his expense. ‘I'hen he ordered another and set up the cigars, When he haa got his Victoria Regina going in good shape he began guzzling, but the mixologist had penetrated his visitor's disguise and his an- swers were evidently not satisfactory. Finally, as a last resort, the stranger re- marked : “Well, Mr. Murray. I am golug from here to Sau Francisco. 1 am very much pleased to have met you and as a token of my estoem”—lowering his voice to a whisper— “allow me to present you with a pioce of the whip handle that drove the white horse to the Carlson cottage,” atthe same time ten- dering a piece of & whip. “Aud m return for your extreme kind- ness,” remarked Murray, ‘“allow me to pre- sent {0 you s pretty a piece of extra fine zrade of oak-tanned sole leather,with French calf uppers, as ever kicked a man of your kind out of doors,” and minus caremony, Murray promptly kicked the quondam travel- ing man through tue aperture left by the carpenter who erected the Luilding. “Because, you see,” said he, “had I been foolish enough to take that pieco of whip I would have probably been arrested and taken to Chicago as an accessory and they would have made me a mint of trouble with- out my being of any benefit to any of the partics concerned. L don’t deny that I know suveral of the parties connected with the case, but what I don’t know of that affair would make a volume bigger that Webster.”” And now, very recently, comes Detective O'Donnell, of Chicago, Who is ostensibly selling books, mention of which was made 1n Tae BEE a few days ago. His object here is collecting evidence for the state's rebuttal, He 1s one of a corps of men sent to Minoe- apolis, St. Paul, Denver, Kansas City, St. Josoph, Des Moines, St. Louis and Omaha, m fact every town where acamb of tho Clan-na-Gaei is thought to be located. His mission is to find out who are mem- bers of the camp in Omaha and get acquainted, hoping that some chance re- mark may give a clue, the theory being that, as the state’s evidence is all in, friends of the defense may be induced tosay some- thing. He is a big, broad-shouldered man, who at one time was employed as & private detective ina very tough beer garden in Chicago. He visited Murray, but was recognized; a reporter also recognized him. Hence he is not likely to gain much informa- tion. And there is yot one thing more. Letters bave been known to pass between one of the accused men and an Omaba physician of re- pute. What their contents ara no one knows, but the Chicago man is evidently acting under instructions to ‘‘shadow” the doctor. ‘The latter is alleged to be in collu- sion with “Cooney, the Fox,” although the latter statvment is merely hypothetical. Just how long Mr. O'Donnell will remain in this city afier to-day is not known, but his book sales will probably determine the matter. Al Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills. An important discovery.

But when they get these young wen there they should resist the, impulse so common, ‘Now that we've got them, let’s convert them.!
