THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY. JANUAI Fred Dexter, an Engineer Killed at Tacoma, a Former Lincoln Boy. ,8T00D BY HS POST TO THE LAST. Capture of Two Slick Chicken Thi ves and the Swlen Fowls Found on Their Premises— Odds and Ends, Lixcory, Neb, Jan, 7.—(Special Telegram to Tie Bre.]—Fred Doxter, the Northern Pacific engineer who was killea inan acci- dentat Tacoma recently, will be remembered as a Lincoln boy by many old residents of this city, a3 he resided here somo fi fteen years ago. Mr. Dexter's death was an example of novloself sacrifice.’ ITis train became un manageablo on a grade, but he remained with his engino, blowing a* warning whistle to keep the track clear until the erash came and he went down to death in the wreck. HATDED M8 HENCOC Tanner Charles Miller, who resides eleven miles southwestof the cty, on theroad to Denton, wa kenod atan early hour this morning by a commotion among his fowls. He arose and got to the window just in time to s two men ina top buggy drive off towards the city, He quickly dressed, and mounting 8 lorse, took up the chase. The fellows drove pretty fast, and it was not until the city was in sight that ho caught aglimpso of the fellows. Miller was unarmed, and his only resource was to folow the fellows. Ables took his portion of the plunder ton small house near Salt creek, south of A and near Second street, Pennington took his art to his home on Salt creek, near E streot Miller stood gruard until he could secure the services of some ono 1o notify the police. Sergeant Miller and _ Dotective Malono went downand searched Able's house, but finding nothing of ~the fowls, were about to giveup the search, when they thought of the garret. T'hey mounted into the loft, and there founa some of the fowls with their necks wrung. A visit was noxt made to Pennington's placcand the house and barn were both thoroughly searched, but no _traces of tho chickens “could be 'found. The creek runs past the barn, and while exploring that _por- tion of the place Detective Malone found the fowls. TPenrington’s scheme of hiding them was very unique, Heohad put the_chickens in & bag, cuta hole in the ice, and _moored the baz underneath. He was not sufficiently sequainted with the laws of physic, as tho bag floated on the water and could easlly be seen through the ice, Penainglon and Ables are both young men, Ablesis a son of the old fellow who created a sensation some three months ago by dumping lis wife and tho boys out of his prairie #choouer while they were en route from Beaver City to Plattsmouthana leaving them penniless, ‘while he droveoff. The follows will answer beforo Judge Toxworthy. HORN WAS THE CULPRIT, In this morning's Bk thero was an_error fo the account of the Horm case. It was de to appear that Charles B. Pierce, the cashier of the bank, was the culprit when in fact ho was not. Theodore Horn, ir.,1s tho fellow who got the money under ' falso pre- tenses from the bank and Pievco was the man who swore out the warrant for the fel- low’s arrest. ‘The mistake was most unfor- tunate as Mr. Pierce is a young man of un- blemished character and of known integrity. YOUNG THIEVES, Yesterday afternoon three young boys en- tered W. F. Ccolo & Co’s gun_store at 140 South Eleventh street and whilo Mr. Coolo was waiting on a customer outside carried away the cash _box, coutaining between $15 and “Tho box was sitting on the shelf and was ased in liou of a money drawer, The thott wyg wot discovered until somo timo after. Mr. Coole reported the ocourrence to the police and gave a description of the young thieves, About 8o'clock last night oMcer Snyder captured F'rank Shinn, one of the youthful erooks, at the entrance of the Eden musee, Young Shinn has been in trouble before, and will probably bo sent to the re- form school with his two companions. .

Mayor Cushing's Letter Relative to a Monument to General Crook. The letter of Mayor Cushing to the city council, suggesting the propriety of erecting & monument to the memory of Ganeral George Crook, and aaming a commission to carry out the plan, has touched a popular chord. J. S. Collins, one of the commissioners named, said last evening: “Whilo I was in nowiseanxious toserve upon such a com- mission, T am pleased to know that the citi zous of Omaha aro alive to the interests of paying a propor tribute tooneaf thegrandost of men. I knew General Creok well, having been personally acqu ainted with him formore than fifteen years, He was a most genial gentleman, o brave general, @ good cltim zen and ‘as gentle us & child. Many a time he has st in my store, and when the old veterans who served under him would come in, Lo would converse with them as frecly as though thoy were oficers of a rank as high as his own. “Regardinga monument, | hardly know ‘what to say, though after conveying his body to Cleveland for buriall commenced to give the matter some thought, and after looking through numerous cemeterics, I am of the opinion that for 5,000 we can place a life-size bronze fignre upon a stono baso. This would bo quite cheap and very appropriate. I would have the statue in citizen's garb, as but fow moi ever saw the goneral in uniform, In my long uaintans with him, but twice did 1 see him in tho uniform of his ranlk, and he al- ways appearmg before the people of this oity as a civilian, o would be better known as T have described. “Regarding tho location, T would say, by all means erect the monument in Jefferson square. 1 cannot say what the views of tho other members of the committee may be. butere longwe shall have a meeting and then decide upon what we want.”” icorge W. Liningor said: “T know noth- ing about my appointment-until I saw Mayor Cushing’s létter, published yesterday in T Bir, but Iassure you it will give me great pleasuro to act with tho other mombers of the committee, I have always regarded Gen- eral Crook asone of Omaha's most honored citizens, a_gallant officer and one of the greatest Indian fighters the world has ever known, For this reason eI most _emphaticaliy say that Omaha should feel prond In havig an opportnnities of erecting a monument to his memory. It should be in the center of Jeffer- son square, and considering his deeds of valor, I am of the opinion 1t should represent himas a general, A group would bo vory attractive and pleasing to the oye. Let_tho central figure bo tho gencral and have about him the figures of some Indians, This would always bring to the mind of theobserver his record as o warrior, “I'would have it life sizo upon a_granite base. Infact, I would have the wholo thing of granite, taken from the Rocky Mountains. “‘We have some sculptors in the west, who areartists in their line and 1 am confidont sucha monumont as I have spoken of _could be completed ata cost nob to exceed $10,000 and possibly much cheaper. “'Ab the next meeting of the Art associa- tion I shall ask for skotehes, which may prove of some help to the committee. My 1dens as given I shall not insist upon- being carried out, as I havo not talked with any of the mombers of the committeo and do not kuow what they propose.” John A. Creighton said: *T knew nothing ahout my appoinument until I read Tur: Bee and consequently am not prepared to spealk. However, I fayor a monument, in Jofferson square and shal. be glad to uct in conjunction with the balance of the commitiee, —-— PACKIX TERN G INTERESTS Omaha Gaining Strength in the Third Place.

The Terms of Twenty-Eight Expire With the Present Bession, | g | ARMY OFFICER ASSIGNED TO PINE RIDGE. | The President Nominates Orestes G. | Bailey for Register of the Bloom- ington Land Offico— cellancous Matters, 518 Fourreryrin Steeer, Wasminaroy, D. C., Jan, 7 | There will be a lively shaking up of the | sonate as a result of the battles before the various state legislatures, many of which be- gan yesterday, with others to follow fast. ‘There are twenty-cight senators whose terms expire with the close of this short sossion. These include Senators Allison of Iowa, Blackburn of Kentucky, Blair of New Hampshire, Brown of Georzia, Call of Florida, Cameron of Peunsylvania, Eustis of Louisiana, Evarts of New York, Farwell of Illinois, Hampton of South Carolina, Ingalls of Kansas, Jones of Arkansas, Jones of Ne- vada, Mitchell of Oregon, Moody of South Dakota, Mornll of Vermont, Payne of Ohio, Pierce of North Dakota, Platte of Connecticut, Pugh of Alabama, Spooner of ‘Wisconsin, Squire of Washington, Stanford of California, Teller of Colorado, Vance of North Carolina, Vest of Missouri, Voorheos of Indiana and Wilson of Maryland, This list, it will be soen, contains some of tho stronwest figures of the senate, such as Fvarts, Ingalls, Spooner, Teller, Vest, Voor- hees and Morrill. Somo of them are sure to rotire owing to advorso logislaturos in thoe respective states, as in tho case of Spooner and Evarts. Others have already been elected, whilo most of thom have contests- which are now in progress. Itis tho boliof here that Evarts will bo succoeded by Gov- ernor Hill. Spooner’s successor will un- doubtedly be ex-Secrotary Vilas. Blair may remain owing to the favorablo turn of affairs for the republican legistators of New Hampshire. Hampton will give place to Trly, a Carolinan who has hit his mau at ten 0s. Blackburn, Voor- hees, Vest and Stanford can stay here as long as they want, as their re-election a mere formality. Cameron had a row on hand, but he has adroitly profited by the rocent’ No- vember disaster, which showed the Pennsyl- vania republi ns that they must stand to- gether or be swamped. Altogether the per- sonnel of tho senate will be materially changed by the contests of the coming few days. BAILEY APPOINTED REGISTER AT BLOOMINGTON. Today President Harrison _nominatod Orestes G. Bailey for register_of the land offico for the Bloomington, Neb., district, Wasnixeros Brrelv Tie Ovana Bem, } Register Ashloy’s resignation having been reccived and accepted some days since. S. R. Glinn was a candidate for this place, but his application was not received until aftor the delogation had decided o recommend Bailey, Mr. Bailey is a farmer living at Bloomington and was a member of tho lower house of the legislature in 1887, A CHANGE AT PINE RIDGE. At the direction of the president Cavtain Pierce of the First cavalry will take charge of the Pine Ridge agency. Captains Ewers of the Fifth, Earnest of the Eighth and Lee the Ninth 'nfantry are also assigned to agency duty, to be placed as General Miles muy direct. ' It appears that Agent Royer has not given satisfaction to either tho gov- ernment or his wards, and it has been deemed expedient to plece the agency in the handsof an ofcor. ~ Further than “this assignment the recommendation of General Miles that certain agents should bo relioved and arm officers placed in charge will not be followed. Thorelief of Agent Royeris tho extent to which the president will goin the direction of giving the army control of the Indian agencies, and although some officers may ba placed out in some agencies, the agents will be retained. It is not believed that it would bo expedient to put an end to the educational and other work in the hands of the Indian agents by substituting army officers, who could do no more than issue rations and look aftes the peaceful con- dition of the Indians, Tho army, it is stated in executive circles, has had absolute control of tne Indian agencies so far as military power is concerned in the present disturbancé, and it is beld at the war and interior depart: ments thathad there been army officers in charge of the Indian agencies insiead of _tho present agents, nothing moro could have been done m the direction of peace than has been dono. At the very mcipiency ot the Inaian trouble Secretary Noble dircoted the agents to co-operate with the army and_obey the command of the officer in charge of ~the troops, and they have complied. Secretary Noble said tonight: “Don’t mis- take the action of todsy. Only Agont Royer has been or will be_displaced. The assign- ment of the other officors than Captain Pierco aro to do military duty at the agencies, but will not supplant the agents.” INTERESTED IN THE SHIPPING DILLS, The pan-American transportation company is watching with much interst the outcomo of the shipping bills now beforo the house, for If theso bills are passed it will mean a ¢0od deal in the way of bountics to_the pro- posed lines connecting _the United States with Central and South America, J. B. Clarke of Chicago, who is here in behalf of the company, said today that the company was ready to begin operations s s00n as congress granted tho charter. Their first step would be to send a man abroad to charter from two to five steamers of not less than 4,000 tons burthen each. If, however, the subsidy bill went_through, the plan of chartering steamers abroad would be aban- doned and American ships would be used in order that the company might secure the bounties which the subsidy plan proposes. Mr. Clarke says tnat the 1,000,000 necessary 1o start the company is alréady in sight and will be fortheoming immediately upon the granting of the charter: This will allow arly meeting ut Galveston, Tex., whe ficers for the company will be ' chosen, Agents will at onco be dispatched to South- ern and Central America in behalf of the company. 1t is expectod that the new line will get a large share of the coffee trade com- ing up from Brazil, as well as & considerablo part of the trafic in fruit from the West Indies, THE ELECTRICAL COMMISSION ORGANIZES, The electrical commission of the District of Columbia has organized by electing Andrew Rosewater president andLicutenant Shonlk of the army secret ry. Tho commissioners held a consultation with tho president this afternoon and will begin work at ouce., MISCELLANEOUS, President Harrison is doing considerable driviog now days.

Seventy-six vears ago this day—Janvary 8, 1815 was fought the battle of New Orleans. Is there in all these Unitod States a single soulliving who was preseut and took part i that contest of arms! It is doubtful. And Jackson, the hero, has been dead for more than forty-five years! It was in the defensa of New Orleans that Andrew Juckson achioved his enduring re- nown. Soon this anniversary his unprece- dented achievement s recallod. Time was when next to the Fourth of July January § was the greatest of this country's holidays. There used to be grand strect parades, cannon woke the achoes upon the hill- sides, and flags floated from public and pri- vate buildings. Toasts to “Old Hickory” and the “Hero of New Orleans” wero drunk and orations, stirring and patriotic, were de- livered fo commomorate the day and the man, Somotimes there would bo festivities only, when songs and ballads were in order, recalling the incidents of the British repulso, how Packenham was killod, how his army was routed, how the “fair women were saved from a brutal soldiery. One of these had this ending: “While old Mississippi to the ocean shall flow. The luurcls of Jackson shall flourish £row; Futurp ages with transport shall publish bis ame, And minglo his praises with Washington's me." Perhaps the most popular of all the songs that were wont to be sung on those gala days was the ‘Hunters of Kentucky.” Twoof the stanzas ran thus: Ye gentiomen and ladies fair Who graco this famous city, Just listen if you've time to spare, While I reliearse a ditty, And for the opportunity Conceive yourselves quite lucky, For 'tis not often that you seo A hunter from Kentucky On! Kentucky! Ohl Kentuoky! and Now Packenham had made his brags, If hein fight was lueky, He'd bave our gals and cotton bags, In spite of Old Kentucky. But Jackson, he was wide awake And wasn't soared at trifies; Tor well he knew what aim we take With our Kentucky rifles. A few words asto ihe battle. It was to decide whether New Orleans should fall into the hands of the British or not. Jackson and his army were to defend; Packenham and his force were to break down every opposi- tion, and then occupy the town—with “Beauty and Booty’ as thelr cry, Jackson held a Emmon behind a°deep trench running frofa the Mississippi east- ward to a swamp, at apoint where the solid land between wus less than a mite in width— a position naturally strong. Every effort was put forth to make it 8till stronger. A ram- part of cotton bales ‘behind the deep ditch constituted the fortitication, back of which was the small force of Jackson, and in front of it the British army. Under the fire of a battery of six eighteen- rnumimu, the main body of the enemy, led by General Packenham in person, advanced to storm Jackson’s position. The result, as all the world knows, was a splendid victory for the Americans. Two thousand of the Bri! soldiers were killed and wounded, while the loss of Jackson was seven killed and six wounded ! Another old ballad that was often sung n commemmoration of this extraorainary con- flict, recited the story in these words Bold Packenham came with Gibbs and McKeeno And thousands of warriors, the heroes of Spain; New Orleans to conquer they thought would be play; “Comeon,” said their chief, “and I'll lead you 'the way. “Behold yonder city and steaples so finel They stand, my brave boys, but a league from our line. Storm those works and yon city shall be your reward, For remember that ‘beauty and booty’s' the word." Disgraco to thy country, thou monstor ac- curst, i o fufluma thy vile soldiers with avarice ana ust ! But honor and courage extinct in each breast— The watchword was relished by those ho ad- dressed. “Bold Packenham" was among the killed and Gibbs and MeKeeno (Keene) wounded, the fivst mentioned mortally. We have no more parades, no more banquets, no more pageants, no more soul-stirring. orations—by the whole people. But Jackson's memory is still cherished by patriotic citizens and his achievements in_war, Because of their bril- lincy, will coutinue {0 form one of tho bright- st pages of our country’s bistory. L MEDICAL DISCOVERY. ANOTHER A New Xork Physician Has a Better Remedy Than Kooh's, New Yonk, Jan 7.—[Special Telegram to Tie Bee.]—The line of inquiry and inves- tigation that has been taken up by physicians in this city in consequence of.the discovery of Kocl’s lymph at Berlin has apparcatly led to anothervaluable addition to the knowa truths of scientific medicine. An_ experiment that has been carried on at the House of Rest for consumptives at Fremont by the visiting physician, Dr. 8. C. Bruce of this city, has succeeded in developing some very remarik- ablo facts, and although the ground of eape- rience is not yet wide euough to admit of an absolute conclusion, it seems to warrant the statement that Dr. Beuce has discovered a remedy that promises s startling results as those obtained by the now celebrated lymph, Tho information was placed at the disposal of the Times today; which seems to show that cases of phthisis in advanced stages, which have shown litt1é 1f any reaction under the lyyuph treatment, have under the treat- ment introduced by Dr. Bruce shown won- derful improvement and give reason for much bope. In the mannet of “applivation the sub- stance used by Dr. Bruce is enirely similar to the lymph, a hyperiermic xn]'muun being made of from twenty 10_vinety minims in the back of the patient fiea¥ the shoulder biade, ‘Ihe pationt, after rddelving this injection or inocculation, has inevery case under treat- ment shown favorable symptoms, not the least of which is a rermrkablo gain in weight and recovery of appoiite.
