Arrangements mitters Discussed and Come Appointed at Last Night's Meeting—~Chances for the People to See. That Omaha desires to accord to Prosident Harrison a cordial welcomo and fitting re. ception was conclusively shown last evening In responso to an wvitation from the mayor to the various municipal business aud social leaders of the city, a number of the leading Fepresentative citizens met in the chamber of ,ne fire and police commission to take the initial steps in prevaration for the notable event. There were present: Mayor Cushing, Prosident Martin and Secretary Nason of the board of trade, Postmaster Clarkson, Prosi- fent Hartman of the real estato exchauge, Major D. H, Wheeler, Councilmen Chaffeo (and Davis, General Brooke, commander of the dopartment of the Piatte, Hon, . Rosewater of Tue Ber, Julius Meyer, C, F. Weller and | Fred Motz, sr, Mayor Cushing occupled the chair, and statea that the meeting was called for the purpose of discussing jffans and appointing such committoes as might bo necessary to carry them out, He suggestod the appoint- ment of the following committees: Finance, feception, parade, specches, entortainment military display, ' flowers, decorations and banquct in.case {t was declded to give one. Major Clarkson said that the president was j ot coming here to eat, but to see pec }beseen. Tho worst featurc connocted with his visit {s that he will arrive at luncheon me, and vast crowds of people will be on fhe streots and will not want to be Kept Walting. Ex-Governor Alvin Saunders, who |48 connccted with the president's fawily, Wants the chief exccutive to lunch with him, 8nd the speaker thought this the better y a8 many would bo offended if there was=a public banquet, because they would neces- sarily be loft ont, The mayor thought the suggestion a good one. Major Whecler aiso favored it, as the pres- {dential party would have inch on tho train He thought they should be driven about the clty until 2 o'clock, and then taken to some ublio place to receive the people and shake ands, Major Clarkson thought the handshaking should come first and the drive aftorwurds. When sident Cleveland was bhere the strects were crowded as early as 8 o'clock and it would be tho same in_this case, and tho people onght not to bo kept standing so long. He suggasted having a military escort from the depot to the staud, Muyor Cushing suggested that the meoting would better get down to work, and W, N. Nason was chosen secrotary. Mr. Martin said the school children must be provided for, and favored giving them a holiday aud reserving a good place for them. The mayor favored the High schooi grounds, and the location was approved. No ono but school children and their teachers will bo allowed on the grounds and no adults but teachers on that side of tho street. The president will drive by in his carriage and probably make a short spoech, Major Wheeler wanted to know if that meeting was to appout the committees and the magor said that such was his intention. General Brooke was called for to outling a vlan of reception, but begged off on the ground that all s life had beon spent in the wilderness until three years ago and he thought other gentlemen present better pro- pared on thatsubject. He said it would be very little trouble to have troops on hand for escort duty and favored the high schoo Rrounds for a public stand, Mayor Cushing thought the court house yard the best, place for the speeches, and the court of Tie Bek building tho proper place for the recention. General Brooke thought the air would be- come bad in a short time. He advised stop- Bing all stroot cars durluz tho parade, and 0 mayor said it should bo done, Mr. Metz favored the court house grounds, and it was decided to have the speech making there and the reception in Tur Bee building rotunda. Major Wheeler thought the executive com mittee should consist of fifteon members with the mayor as chairman, This was objected to because it would malke tho committee too unweildy, and the number was reduced to eleven. The the following gentleman committee: Kuclid M W. F. Bechel, Major T Brooke, ( members of the F. W . Clarkson, General Hartman, H."W. Yates, Fred sr, . 8. Lowry andsHerman Kountze. On suggestion of Major Clarkson it was do- cided to have each member the chairman of one of the committees, Then the question of finances came up and Morris, Chaffee and Davis were in favor of having the council make an appropriation sufticient to cover the expenses, but inasmuch “as a republican council had refused to make such an appropriation when President Cleve 1ana was hore and certain domoorase mors o favor of making that a precedent, he couldn’t promiso that an uppropriation woula be made n tnis case. + Mayor Cushing said that if they would get alt-the republican votes in the council he would furnish two demoerats, Mr. Hartman said the real estate exchango favored such an approprintion as they di liked begging, and offered the following reso- lution which was adopted: Resolved, That th puncil through the to appro- printe §1,50 "Xpenses of the Tecoption nt Hareison, Some thought the amount too small, but it was allowed to stand as no arches aro to bo erccted or bands engaged, as the Second Infauiry band from Fort Otmaha will be all that is necessary. “The mayor appointed as mombers of the flnance _committee H. W. Yates, J. L. Mo Cague, Thomas Swobe, 4. A. Walkefield and W.'N.'Nuson, and on military parade General Brooke and'Colonel Sheridan, the gencral stating that he thought they could handle it. C. L. Chaftee, Julius Meyor and C. E. Bur- meister woro appointed a committeo on deco- rations, and the chairman will appoint such others as he choses, Major Clarkson was unanimously requested toactas grand marshal, but positively de- clined, saying that ho had boen ridiculod enough on the grand marshal business, and he was tired of it. &l he could to push it. C. F. Woller was appointed grand marshal and will appoint his own aides, General Brooke will constitute the com- mitteo on music, The mayor suggested inviting the Gaand Aruy of the Republic posts, Major Clarkson a0id thoy would probadiy not. surn ous. o there wis to beno parade except the mili- tary display, butthe old soldiers will be in- vited just tho same, The eption commitiee was instructed to havo several members go to Lincolu and ro. ceive the presidential party, ana seve Iadies will accompany them tolook after tho | ladies of tho party. The mayor will head this committee, and will appoint the other members and make the committee as large as Lo pleases, Euclid Martin will look after the transpor- tation and carriages and sclect such assistants as ho duxm-u‘. % Majorjl Clarkson Woodnm saia that Mr. Clark man had tendered his fine carriage and team for the use of Mps. Harrison, and the offer was accopted with thauks. Mr. Rosewater thought that all buildings aloug the line of march should be decorated, and i committeo will visit all owners and make this roquest. Mr. Nason was sick of cheap bunting and ‘wanted ov body to use banuers, The secretary was instructed to bhave all details us to route, excrcises and routiue pub- lished in the city papers a day or two before the president is to be here. In discussiug the matter of outside wmvita. tions, Major Clarkson saia that 150,000 strangers would bo in Omaha on that day’ Major Wheeler thought that invitations should Mr. Hurtman raised'it to let every town within a radius of 100 miles come i, Mr., Rosewater said the city ofcials of Council Bluffs and the state officers should be invited in any event.

The distinguished party made no stop 1 Chicago, but they would stop in Omaha for several and no waated them accorded a distinetivély Omaha reception.

Mr. Rosewater wanted everybody invited to come and participate, and said that Omaha's location would render it something of an inte; Major Clarkson suid it would be discour- teous not to invite tl overnor of o Mr. Rosewater favored printing 500 or 1,000 neatiy printed invitations to send to the mayors and councils of surrounding cities, Mr. Hartman said this would make #00 or 400 guests to transport and lunch, but Mr, Rosewater thought there was no need of feeding them, though citizens would give the uso of carriages to give them a drive. Hes it would be a good advertisement for Omuha and the city could afford it. Mr. Mariin thought they would all expect to be looked after and given special attention 1f thus invited, and favored mving everybody u general invitation and lewting all come in on the same plan, Mr. Rosewater insisted that Council Blufts should be invited as 1t was so v, and it was essential to cultivate riendly rela- tions as possible with neighboring - towns, Ho did not think officials thus invited would oxpect such great personal attentions, He was invited to attend the opening of the New York World building, aud found out that 4,000 invitations were sent out. Only about two dozen wero shown any actual ai- tention. The others were given the freedom of the building and saw the fireworks, Those not invited were not allowed to enter, Ho couldn’t seo why any special attention should be shown or expected. Mr, Murtin was certain that they would have to be given a place in line. Mr. Metz thought Counail Bluffs and South Omaha enoughto invite especially, and did not think wore could be cared for, 'He knew that folks would come from tho outside in any event Mr. Hartman said that this advertisement was not for the citizens of Omaha, but for the citizens of outside towns. He would notify them with their invitation to be here atsuch a timeand goto a certain place and ot a b That was as much as he was in fayor of doing Mr. Resewater thought that ofticials would come and Omaha to do a little for them in tho way of enter- tainment.

If people are invited they will tell of it, papers will pub- lish it and quito an ad would be received in that way. Mr. Metz favored making no moye in the matter until it is seen what action the coun- cil will take, Mr. Hartwman denied that everything de- peuded on the council. He said that if the word went out that fifteen thousand or twenty thousand were to be here thore would bo no difficulty in raising the money if it came to show down **Wo raised #2,200 in two or threa day: | entertain the ' Pan-America said | Rosewater, *“and can y ve | again in this case if nece: Mr. Nason thought the city officials of Council Bluffs and South Omaha and the mayors of other cities had enough, and Mayor Wheeler wanted all mayors addéd to the re- ception committeo, Mr. Hartman said badges and a half-rate for 100 miles, and that is all they'll expeet.

HOW HAUENSTINE WAS SAVED, Story of an Eye Witness to the Uprising in Custer County, THEY ARE DETERMINED ON HIS DEATH. People Out There Will Wait on the Law, but the Victim Must Be Executed to Prevent Lynching. A citizon of Broken Bow was seen last night at the Paxton hotel by a reporter for Tik Bee. The gentleman was an eye wit- ness to the uprising in the Caster county capital Friday, when the people attempted to lyncia Murderer Haueust “That was the most sprightly crowd of men I have scen for manya year,” said the Custer county gentleman, “and it looked very much for a few hours as though the will of the people would decide the fate of Hauenstine without further delay. You sec the day set for the execution of Hauenstine was last Friday and the citizens of Custer county be- lieved that the guilty man would be'duly haoged. But thoy were disappointed for the coudemned man had beer granted a new trial upon a plea of insanity and as the two experts, Drs. Knapp and Carter of Lincoln, sent by G Boyd, at the request of Judge Hame; amin2 the condemned man, ana s witn other d given it as their opinion that as partially insane, and the additional that the jury was still out on Thursday ing, Govornor Boyd telegraphea a respito y days in order to give more time in which to ascertain ‘Hauenstine's condition and to give the jury more time, if necessary, in which to bring in a verdict. “When the news of the respite from Goy- ernor Boya became kuown among the peoplo t dissatistaction became at onco appar- “T'he jury brought'in a verdict o duy morning which found that F was 1d theu the people begau to grow more impatient. When it was learned by a secoud telegram frowr ‘Governor Boyd that the respite would stick, notwithstanding the verdict, the people began 1o gatber in kuots near the court house and discuss the siw: tion. Men began to §warm about and fol tho sheriff through the balls and corridors of tho court house aud the jail, which is in the basement “About 11 o'clock Jiallge E. P, Hamer, who tried the case, saw thab serious trouble was immnent, and he went to some of the rela- tives of the murdered men and explained the situation, assuring them that the respite would in'no way interfere with the final exe- cution of the law, and that if the wait patiently the law would properly executed. Some of seomed 0 be satisfied with the ex- planation, but _others were no Finally “Judge Hawer mounted steps of the court house and addres the crowd. Ho explained that Governor Boyd had simply done his duty in the case. It Was 1o moro than right that Fauenstine's mental condition should be thi: . ughly do- termined before the execution hould pro- ceed, but Governor Boyd had not intended to interfere with the administration of justice. The crowd seemed to be satistiod with this and gradually dispersed, Shortly after, a double column of men armed with crowbars and sledgo hammers, marched down the street and made for the jail, Sheriff Jones stationed himself in the hall leading to the door of the jail and made & do- termined resistance, Judge Hamer rushed eusti | the leaders p LINEN DEPT This Week "I REGARDLESS 0F COST| Half Bleached Table Linen 39c. 15 picces of half bleached table linen with colored border, a regular 65¢ qual- ity; for 80c bleached Napkins 97c. 50 dozen 5-8 bleached colored borders, worth sale only 07c. with at this napkin: $1.50; Bleached Turkish Towels 18 2-8ec. 50 dozon large sizo bleached Turkish towels, a 25¢ quality; during this sale ouly 163c each.

The determiued men called out to their leaders to go ahead and shove the judge aside. They did go ahead, but Judge Hamer rushed herolcall into the hall leading to the jall door and as the men thronged around him he called at tho top of his voice: ‘In the name of the law, I command you to keep the peace.’ *1 had gone i with the crowd and stood near the judge. He then begana speech which lasted fully half an hour and com- manded the attention of the throng of men wedged into that hall like sardines, Some one ot a chair for the judzo and he talked eloquently, pleading for moderation, reason and patience, *“Then James Stockham mouuted the charr and made a capital speech for_the occasion, Ho said: “I'is is no mob. You ave intellj. gent citizens of Custer county, and you will sten to reason.’ He admonished them to d e and let the law take its course, Len Jumes Whitehead took the stump, and in a clear voico he told the crowd that it would be madness to allow passion to spur them on to deeds of violence, He knew the people of Custer county loved law and order and would wait patiently for the law to ve executed, “Judge Wall and several others spoke in a like strain, and then some one in the crowd spoke up and said that if Judge Hamer would promise that Hauenstine should not be taken away from Broken Bow until tho thirty duys' respito had expired, then the crowd - would disperse and wait for the thirty days to pass. Judge Hamer assured thew that tho con- demned man would not and could mnot be taken away. Ho had to remain there, and if at the end of thirty days Goy- ernor Boyd did nothing further” Hauenstine must be hanged as though the respite had not been granted. ““Then the crowd insisted upon sending a committeo to wait upon Governor Boyd and got him to promise not to interfero further with the exceution of the law. “There was a tragic ana fearfully pathetic incident to the affair just at this point. The widow of one of the murdered men had gained an entrance to the crowded hall and ner presence seemed to urgo the men on, She was asked tospeak to the men and por suade them not to make further disturbance, but she replied that these wero the friends and neighbors of her dead husband. She b o a loug way to attend the different trials of the cor- demned man, sud now could not fiud it 1n ber heart to dissuade the men, if they had do- cided to carry out what the law stiould por- form. ““Fiually a committoe consisting of James Whitehead, James Stockuam and Attornoy Campbell was appointed 0 see Governor oyd and get his promise that he would not intorfere further with the edict of the court, Judge Hamer was also requested to accom. pany the committee o Lincoln and see the governor, The crowd then began to disperso, mised that they would wait until A when the respité expires, and then, “if the law does not huug him, wo wil,' d'ono of the most determined of the owd. “Do you think there will be another at- tempt to bang Huuenstine before the expira- tion of tho thirty days “No. The people up there will wait now and lot the law have its way, Butif he is not banged by the hand of the law at the ap pointed time, ou May 22, you may bet your last cent the people of Custer county will do that little job themselves. “How did Hauenstine actduring He pretended to be preoccupied with some- thing aside from the trial.
