The commissioners held the regulation Sat- urday afternoon meeting with all of the members except Corrigan present. ‘T'he business was transacted in short order and at five o'clock an adjournment was reached. County Attorney Mahoney was instructed to confer with City Attorney Poppleton rela- tive to the care of persons stricken down by accident, commonly kunown as emergency cases. A clock was ordered for court room No. 4 in Tur Bee building. H. Fitich, wko was appointed constable eks g d at a subsequent meeting fused to abide by the action of the commissioners. The judiciary committee will try to settle the cas Wil liams aud hree others, ide in the southwestern part of the nl\,lukud that the house b removed to some other localit, The petition was re- ferred. Mike Meany asked to be appointed con stable in the Second ward, Mr. Bevlin, who had been to Kansas City to investigate the question of election booths, reported, He says that if the county joins h tho city in their construction the coun- ty's share will be at least £,000, to s nothing of chairs, tables and stoves, beside costing fully $150 to put up and remove such booths. Timnie had talked with the county attor- ney, who informed him that if the county waits until the fall election it will have to bear the whole of the expense. He thought if the city would share the exvense now the county will be just that much ahead. Thé report was recommitted in order to get the opinion of the county attorney upon the legality of sharing with the city. VanCamp's resolution to give John Coots 8!,000 to prepare plans for two stories to the court house was placed on file. Van- Camp was the only member who voted for the resolution. The Connell injunction ferred to the county attorney. Barney Gordon ‘was appointad secretary to the commissioners who goto Denver as delogates to the trans-Mississippl conven- tion.

The courts were in session yesterday morn- ing, and devoted a greater portion of the time to hearing motions, Judge Wakeloy handed down a decision in the casc of the Bank of Commerce against the Omaha banking company. The action was brougnt for the purpose of holding the stockholders of the defurct bank liable for the amount of stock subscribed. To this the defendants filed a dem r. I'he court held that the action now stands not asan ation of law and equity, but as an action at law. The demurrer was sustained. In the case of Johnson against Van Closter, the petition of intervention was allowed, and the case will now be heard upon the proofs. The marriage in the case of Cassidy against Cassidy was declared void. This is the somewhat famous case, wherein Mrs, Cas- sidy supposing that her first husband was dead, remarried. Later the mau turned up and eclaimed his wifo, 1n tho caso of L. B.

The popular appetite has become so strong for the luscious trait that strawberries, like lemons, are to be found on the market almost the whole year round. In Decembe Californin sent her Dberries here to delight the eye and tickle the palate of the epicure and it was not many weeks later when Georgin and Florida berries found their way to Oma- ha.

OFI TO © NATL nt Delegates Talk of Their spects. Congressman Kem of Broken Bow, with the following ndependent delegates to the Cinemnatl conference, registered at the Barker last night: J. H. Powers, independ- ent candidate for governor in the last cam- paign: Senator Dysart of Superior: J, W, Coulter. Hastings; D. D. Remington, Seward 0. J. Blaudin, Franklin county; A. J. Scott, Kearney; O. Nelson. Schuyler; H. J. Hall, Greeley Center; S. E. Thoruton of the Inde- pendont, Liucoln, Mr. Kem said that the independent party of the stute would be represented in the con- Terence by about one hundred and fifty dele- gates. These would be appointed by the party at large and by individual alliances This number, however, would not _inciude those who might be appointed by the Kuights of Labor. The conforence would be repre- sentative of a large number of organizatio S, and 1 it would, of course, be a large number of ideas. It was not unlikely that some of the delegates would ~ go there with hobbies, but he did not think that these would in any manner engross the attention of the body of the couference. The result of the assembling would doubtless be the nomination of a national ticket in the campaign of 1502, He could not state who would be the nominees of the party. So far s he was concerned his choice for president would be Mr. Weaver of lowa, he recent decision of the supreme court ousting Boyd, did not, he thought, have to much effect upon the democrats who were joining the alliance as did Boyd's veto of the Newberry railroad bill. Regarding his sentuments on the question of Thayer's succeeding Boyd, the congress- man said it was a case of dog cat dog while somebody else stood by and cried “'seek 'em, The independents in the next election would poll from twenty to thirty thousand more votes than they did lust year and he thought that that was about all they needed. _Peoplo would not believe this estimate. Neither would they believe him when he prophesied the numbér of votes which the party would poll in the campaign of 15%), uor yet when he told them he was woing to bo elected. Gov- ernor Thuyer was endeavoring to throw a sop to the independents when offeriug as he did a few days ago to John Howers, late in- dependent candidate for governor, the po- sition of deputy labor inspector. But Mr. Powers, he claimed, would not think of ac- cepting the oftice, Senator Dysart of Superior, who was one of the most uncompromising indepeudents in the late legislature, said : “The coming meeting in Cineinuati will be simply a conference. (ndependents, allianco people, the grange, Knights of Labor, and allindependent labor organizations, will sim- ply confer and perhups adopt a common plat- form on which they may stand together in 1892. There is no talk of nominating a national ticket ow. 1 can hardly say what principle the conference will adopt, but I apprehend they will bo more or less like those of our own party. There are two points, I think, will be covered, namely: Money and railroads. What action will be taken on the money question I canuot_say, but the move which 1 shall advocate will_be'the issue of money on the greenback plan for the needs of the people. “1 do not think that the ousting of Boyd has had the effcct of driving democrats into our party. It was owi action in_ ve- toing the railroad o is sending them over to u “I don't think Tha bill whi or wants to call a_spe cial session of the | any more than Boyd did. He wouldn't briug us together for the purpose of passing a railroad bill be cause I don’t think e wants a bill any more than Boyd did, and it would hardly pay to have us brought together to pass an appor. tionment bill. Even if the law does say an apportionment bill shall be passed after the enumeration has been made, the fact that no such bill was passed ought to cause the mat- ter to be held over till the next sessi - Hard Luck Indeed. Wiliiam Scott, a South Omaha cook, was to have been married lust evening, but the strong avm of the law wound itself around him and spoiled bis fun For some tine past William has been finan- clally embarrassed, After receiving his week's pay yesterday he found it was ot enough to liquida Iul\w EXPeNses necessary at a marriage cerem Scott was not the man tobe balked by such trifles and so commenced to look uround for means to raise the wind.
