Brariy, Oct. 22.—(Special Cablegram to Wk Bre.]—The Reichsanzeiger tolay an- mounces that owing toa lack of funds the governuent is obliged to decline making loans to companics soas to enable them to Build dwellings for workmen. Baron von Berlepsch, Prussian minister of commerce, says: “Whilethe government joyfully wel- comes all efforts m the direction of providing tmproved dwelliugs for workingmen, it must inciple deeling to assist building com- panics from the coffers o the state, espoo: ally as it is confident that there is suficient capital and public spirit in Berlin to form ecompanies which will be content with mod- erate profits, The socialists talk of forminga bureau to fnquireinto the circumstances of workmen.

The recipicnts of the letters and postals were 8 Mr. and Mrs, Hay of Waterloo, 1a. The missives are not fit to print in Tun Ber and are accordingly withheld. The letters were forwarded to the postoffice inspoctor at Chicagoand Messrs. West and Fleming, two of the Inspectors wero detatied tolook the matterup. Thep succeeded in locating tho “doctors” at 1021 Farnam street, Davis asked the visitors whether they had come (o receive treatment at his hands They replied that they had not. They were simply agents for Mr. Hay of Waterloo, In, and wonted o know what kind of a settlement Davis would consent to make. That scientist sald that he wanted his At this stage of the proceedings Mrs. Davis left the room, and, after a little further par- ley, she was recalled and the objecti missives were produced by tha inspe Both Davis and his wifo admitted that they had written them, and that beforedoing en the advice of an attorney. ¢ of seribes were then put under The punishment for the offense aileged is a fine of &,000 and imprisonment for five years, or both, in the discretion of the courts, The pair waived examination before Com- missioner Dundy and were held to the Unite States court.

Davi ims to combine the art of magnetic healing with his powers as a spirit- ualist and the two, it is alleged, worked the gullible people of San Francisco. Davis and his wife, it scems, were living in San ncisco, where they followed the busi- ness of fortune telling, magnetic healing and yarious other spiritualistic lines, Among their acquaintances were Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Hay. Mr Hay was a wholesale wine mer- chant, whose relatives lived in Waterloo, In., where Hay posed as an ardent pro- hibitionist, Hay, it is alleged, sugmosted to Davis thate the i & co-partnership and travel about, Davis giving exhibitions of his magetic healing powers and Hay acting as_business manager. Davis consented, at Hay's sug- estion, paid $500 into the fund of the con- rn, but did not pt from When they wenrs v to start, F sisted that Davis should leave his wife be- hina and this was done. Davis claims that previous to their departure, and while he was using his maguetic powers upon Mrs, Hay, the lady made improper advances a number of times and he finally yielded to her en- treaties. The party came to Omaha, where they re- mained_several days, but Hay refused to allow Dayis to give an exhibition of his powers. In the meantime Mrs, Davis camo to Omaha also, greatly to Hay's disgust. The party unext went to Walerloo, Ta. leaving Mrs. Davis in Omaha, penniless and a stranger, Davis stating that Hay had all his money and refused tagive him a cent for his wife. At Waterloo, Davis says Mr. Hay directed bim to treat Mrs. Hay's mother, an old lady, the wife of Dr. Carpenter, Dr. Carpenter was reported to be the possessor of considerable property and Hay wished Davis to convert him to “spiritualism by represeuting that a dead son of the old gentleman had divected that he make his will in favor of his daughter, Mrs. Hay. When he should have done this, Hay it is alleged, wished him to administer a strong _shock of elect ty to old Mrs. Carpenter and kill her, and then theold gentleman would soon fol- low. This, Davis says, he refused to do and in- sisted upon nis £00 or some portion of it be- ing returned to him. About this time Davis received a letter from Mrs, Davis stating that she was very sick. Ho demanded his money from naiy, and the latter made a pretext of going to Chicago af- ter it. While he was gone more letters came from Mrs. Davis aud Davis prevailed upon Mrs. Hay to give him money enough to get back to Omaha. She finally did so, ana he came back to find his wife confined to bed at No. 511 North Seventeenth street. Assoonas Mrs. Davis was able to.write they both commenced writing to the Hays at Waterloo forthe money which Davis had paid Hay. The letters of Mrs. Davis were particularly bitter and &c- cused Mrs. Hu{ of alienating the affections of el husband. Some of the communications were written on postal cards and came, it is alleged, within the pale of the law. The only explanation they offer for Hays' actions, aside from wanting Davis' money, is that he wished him to be a part of his family. Davis says that the, often told him that himself and wife believed in free love, butdid not want Mrs, Davis around. In one of her letters to Mrs. Hay, Mrs. Davis said she would tell the story to tho world if the money was not fortheoming, and she “had the papers solid.” The surprise of Rip Van Winkle when awaking from his long slimber could not haye been greater than the consumptive’s, upon finding himself entirely relieved by Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.

The principals in the one-roand bout were Sanitary Commissioner Morrissey and his late Fourth ward deputy, Newton Niday. 1t appears that Morrissey and Niday met {n the muyor’s offica to confor with that official on matters relating to the enforce- ment of the garbage law. Morrissey had experienced some trouble in collecting from Niday, and both men became excited in reh sing their grievances to the mayor, Finally, the words led to blows, and Mor- risey and Niday clinched. The mayor yelled frantically and endeavored to separate th combatants by calling upon them to desist. Councilman Lowry and Mayor's Clork Tuttle enjoyed the fun a while and then assisted in separating the belligerents.

THROWN OFF THE TRAIN. The Un nonious Treatment A, J. Bowman Received from Tramps. A. J. Bowman, who recently came here looking for work, and boards at 1312 Dodge streer, started for Lincoln Tuesday on a Union Pacitic freight train. He was in the caboose and sixor eight tramps boarded the car at Elkhorn. After leaving that place the tramps “held up” Bowman, taking whatever they could find in his pockets. They overlooked a $10-bill that was pinned to the lining of his vest, but secured # in silver and a silver watch. Bowman's assail- ants then told him that he could jump from the train or they would throw himoff. He was taken to the platform, and when he hesi- tated about jumping he was pushed from the steps. He wus badly bruised by his fall and his right arm was broken at the elbow. Bowman boarded an_east-bound train and came back to Omaha, He cannot explain the whereabouts of the train crew at the timo he was assaulted, but shows his broken armn and several scratches about his head to corrob- orate his story.

W. Simmons. It seems that Simmons _ana_his partner, Brown, were ar- rested in Lincoln with & lot of sk in their possession, which, it is_belioved, was stolon, and itis thought that the trunk'is also filled with silk goods.
