The Question a¢ Present Puzzling the Heirs ot n, It has developed that Dr. Emanuel H. Den, the well known physician who lived in Omaha for & number of years, was a married man. He was always supposed by Omaba people who were acquainted with him to be an old bachelor, and the contrary was dis- covered by accident. Some time ago John A. Creighton filed an application for the appointment of James H. Mceshane as administrator of the estate of Dr. Den, in order to have a claim of about $1,400 duo Creighton, settled. Shortly after this application was made a remonstravce was filed in the name of Mrs. Catherine Den, setting forth that she was the widow of Emanvel H, Den and the lawful administra- tor of his estate. Papers wero filed show- ing that Emanuel H. Den and Catherine Donchy were married in St. Thomas church, Ann Arbor, Mich, on October 21. 1857, by Father Cullen, ‘I'he priest bas siuce died, but the aftidavits of the witnesses of the ceremony and the originul marriage license were submitted as evidence, The value of Dr. Den’s estate is a matter of question.” His possessions in Omaha were confined to & gold watch, a few dollurs, some clothes, and & few remuants of his profes- sion, The widow sets up the claim, how- ever, that along during Grant's administra- tion, during the days of illicit whiskey, Dr. Den was giveu 130 barrels of illicit whisky in payment of a debt of $10,000. This whisky was'concealed at that time somewhere in the neighborhood of St. Louis, but Lr. Den af- terwards romoved it and concealed it in an- other place. "Lhe man who assisted him in making the removal disappeared immedi- ately afterwards and has not been seen or heara of since. The widow of Dr. Den 18 supposed to pos- sess @ key to the solution of tho mystery of the conceaiment. Good judges place the value of the whisky in the neighborhood of $300,000, Mrs. Den filed an _application for the ap- pointment of Allen Root as administrator of the estate. An order for Mr. Roov's appoint- ment was issued, the amount of his bond being fixed at $100,000. Messrs. Creighton and McShane did not appear. Districe Court, Judge Wakeley heard arguments for an injunction to retrain Johanna Sweeney from preventing Sam Hosford from crossing hor property to get to the street. The parties live near Charles and Eighteenth streets, Hosford rents Mrs. Sweeney’s house on an alley and wants to pass through the front part of the lot to the street. Decision was reserved until next woek. Judge Clarkson heard argumentsin the habeas corpus case of W. H. Martin, who was bound over to the next term of court by the police judge of South Omaha on the charge of grand larceny.

Per- pendicular patterns in silks have, in truth, distanced all others, and this because every- thing is made up in straight falling lines, the little bouffancy which appears now and then, being composed of erape de chine, China silk or some other light fabric us an accessory. soe RIOH BROCADES of today which have never been so superb o quelity and ornate in design (a reflex of the Paris’ exposition) are relegated 1o young matrons or dowagers, and are made up in combioation With plain materials of equal elegunce, though not to the exclusion of light fabrics which come in as accessories.

For two years railroad officials hore and in Chicago have manifested great anxioty over an unsoived problem re e to the Sioux City & Pacific enterprise, which seemed to annoy thein very wuch. Whnen some news- paper first made public the information that & new transcontinental line would be buiit, they pronounced it avother wild cat scheme, But their attitude, and the statement can not successfully be denied, has recencly been changed to forebodings of serious results. This change is brought about through what is thought to be a discovery of the real secret, and it means business. A Sioux City man who was in Omaha vesterday gave the whole thing away, not expacting, of course, that it would get out. However, there 18 no longer good excuse for supprossing what must become known sooner or later, there- fore those who feel more directly interested can take up the pointers and do as thoy please with them. ‘L his gentleman said that while in Chicago quite recently be talked with an official of the Iowa lines who Lad just returnca from New York, and who had gathered in Gotham reliable information to the effect that the Sioux City & Pacific road is actually being built by the Southern Pacific, and that C. S, Huntington is the leading spirit, behind the enterpriso, It seems that his corporation became sus- picious long ago of the Union I fic con- structing a lino of its own to San Francisco and at onco commenced quietly to guard against being left out in the cold on trans- continental trafiic. ‘I'he move, furthermore, is brought about as one means of establish- ing an effective contemporary to the Union Pacific-Northwestern deal. Until now it has been gencrally conceded that whatever stability there was to this new road came from the Lliinois Central, but that appears to have been a blind worked solely for tho purpose of keeping the real ownership under cover, ‘What effect will another line across the continent, in such close proximity, have upon the future prosperity of Omahat ‘That is the question most to be considered. If 1t comes to pass that the Southern cific people are engineering and furnishi the money to thus connect them with two or three Chicago roads at the Missouri river and breax the alliance between them and the Uuion Pacific at Ogden, there is certainly more in the scheme than appears on the surface. It hae already been pre- dicted that the Illinois Central, the Mil- ukee and the Manitoba are heavily intor- ested in the deal. They are expected to enter into an agreement that will obligate them to turn all their through business over to the new concern at Sioux v, Since the Rock Island, Alton and nta £ are tied up in one combinution against the Union Pacific aod Northwestern in another the Milwaukee is left in a pocket from which 1t cannot ex- tricate itself unless the Southern Pacific does break away from the Union Pacific and NENTAL. to Be the DIKD, GRAY-~Suddenty at 1811 Cuming streety Alexander K.
