ONE OF 1L J. D. Tier, forme Kansas City, hus b o several days in consultation 'with capitalists interested in the distillery business in relation to the a and now of establishment of a big vlant. The Chi- cago moen are enthusiasti for the projoct, but on the advico of Iler no immediate action will probably be taken. Bpeaking about the enterprise, Mr. Ilor said “Itis nouse tostart a big distillery now, for corn is too nigh and it is goinyg up higher than a kite, When corn finally locatos on | fair price the new distillery may be formed. As matters ave now it 1s assured of success, Withina week or soa plant will be started in St. Louis which will use 5,000 bushels of corn a aay. This, with the other non-trust \distilleri es, bring up the total 1o within 10,- 000 bushicls a day of what the trust usos Our plant would make up this balance. there would be a crash somewnere, 1y the trust could not control all the whisky if a rival concern turned out an equial amount of goods, If the new enterprise is started the big trust will 8001 be gasping for br Mr. Tler doesn’t talk ¢ cally about Kansas City went the » as enthusiasti- as ho did when he © from Omaha a couple of years ago. “We are experiencing the effects of the boom we had several years ago. People ‘overreactied’ themselves, so to spoak, and aro now undergoing the convalescing pro. cess. The corn flelds which were throw on the market during the. excitement are corn fields still and inside property has been affected by the depression in thesc msidelots but ou the Jatter, }m'lhr‘ most part, the p are firm. Ihave no doubt that in a few f'uurs we shall begin to move forward at as ively a pace as we enjoyed somo years ago, although not in just” the same way. The days of wild cat land speculation are’ over.” TO MOVE OX 01110, It is said tho new people's party has de- cided to concentrate all its power of organ- ization this year in Ohio and Kentucky, The fight in Ohio promises to be the most inter- esting one. The first real struggle will take place at the state convention of the farmers’ union at Columbus next Tuesday, when an offort will be made to commit the union to the third party. It has beretofors been a strong republican organization, but many of its leaders are now training with the new arty. The republicans ave awaro of tho anger and somo of the best politicians in the stato will go thero to try and prevent any endorsoment of the people's party. It is understood that McKinley himself has been urged to attend. 1f the union should dectare for the third party the defeat of McKinley for governor would be a foregone conclusion, as the new party, ‘with the endorsement of the union, could poll ot least seventy-five thousand votes in the country districts, A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. Mayor Washburne and the divectors of the world’s fair are diametrically opposed in their opinions as to who should bear the ex- pense of extra fire and police protection for the exposition grounds. The world’s fair peoplo chink the city should pay out the money, and the mayor 1s equatly certain the exposition ought to do it. The directors are muking strenuous efforts to convert the mayor to their way of thinking, but so far have met with no suce AN OLD LADY'S SUGGESTION, An old lady who has attained the age of 103 oars and who belongs to a very respectable amily, called on the promoters of the world’s fair and suggested that they could not do bet- ter than make a collection of American’s over & hundred years oid and show visitors to the world’s fair what this couatry can doin the ‘way of longevity. ANOTHER WORLD'S FATR LIF, Secretary Butterworth today received a telegram from the Austrian consul at New York saying that a statement was published there to the effect that the world’s fair would have to be postponed till 1504, and asking 1f the report was true. In reply President Bakor and Secretary Buttorworth sent a @ispatch denying that a postponement is necessary and characterizing the report as false and probably malicious. [t is supposed that the publication grew out of an Interview with ex-Mayor Cregier published in St. Paul, in which he exprossed the opinion that the fair could not got in shape for opening in 1803, CHICAGO AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT. In regard toa dispatch from Washington that the war department will notify the city ) 1o remove the ceuter pier under the Canal street bridge, said to an obstruction to mavigation, under penalty 000 every month, Corporation Council Miller said: *No such notice hus yet been received by the city, and if it should be, its authority would not be recognized. The city has oo much at stake to quietly submit to the claim of the meral government to a control of tho river. e attorney general's opinion is entitled to much respect, but is not adjudiciation and in & mavter of this great importance the city will recognize no authority but a judicial decree." ED. CORRIGAN BUYS DUNDER, Ed. Corrigan has bought the colt Dundee from John K, Madden. The terms were pri- vate, bat as the colt is well engaged in the west and east, & ood price was undoubtedly aid. Dundee is well ored, being by Rake out of I'lora McDonald and was im- ported with his dam, DEMOLISHING THE EXPOSITION BUILDING, Tweuty men this morning began the work of destroving the exposition building, the joone of the recent California exhibit on the ake front. The bullding was ercoted im- mediately after the fire on leased ground from tho city, The term for whicn it was erected expived somo years ago, but all efforts o have it _removed ‘have been heretofore ruitiess. It isof brick and nearly a block width. The ground, when vacated will be ndded to the Lake Front park. GIGANTIO SEATTLE PROJECT, The 4,000 tons of merchandise per month which San Francisco is shippiug to_Central and South American ports may be very materially reduced if the plans of a Seattle entleman aro aartiod out. H. W. Baker of e firm of H. W. Baker & Co., storage, ship- ping and commission men_ of Seattle, was at the Auditorium today on his return’ from a sojourn of several weeks among our sister republics on the south, He loft Seattle on Q April 8 lnst, with & view. of intoresting i doalers in those countries in a project for | tho establishment of a line of steamers be- \f tweon Seattle and Central and South Ameri- can ports. Whilo the southorncrs exhibit a considerable lack of accurate iuformation sbout the United States, and imagined § that Seattle was somewhere in the 2 vicinity of the North Pole, they en- tered hearuly mto the project for trade relations. Mr. Baker's partner in this pro. b Ject has sailed for New York to perfect ar- ngemonts for the new line and it will prob- Rly bein operation in & very short time. I o ) principal port for the present will be San Jose de Guatemala and the steamers will take coffeo, mlh%:ny and other products in exchange for lumber, flour and manufacured articles shippod from Seattie. Mr. Baker 8 son of President Baker of the board of di- rectors of the world’s fair and will remain in thie city a few days to visit his parents. THE 10WA CONSPIRACY, Postoffice Trspector Stewart recoived’a do- tailed report from Inspector Christian, In., today regarding tho arvest and indictment of John C." Newton, presidont of the Des Moines & Kansas ity railway for endoavor- ing to defraud the government in sending bogus mail matter over his line in order to et oxtra compensationfrom the goverument on mail contracts. *Iv's one of the bigeest schemes to dofraud the government ever we urearthed,” said Captain Stewart today, wand it is all the more surprising becauso New ton is very wealthy and president of a rond down ensi as woll as_tho head of the Des Momes line. I've had Tnspector Christ- ian out there for forty days and received daily reports from him and it was dis- covered that the mml being sent over the line consisted of packages of Now York papers over a year old. Newton's schemo was to write to some of his friends along the rond that large amounts of newspaper mail would be received by them, and he asked that they be held. This extra mail of course showed an increace in the amount sent over his line, and as the government was about to weigh mails to strike an average for the pur- pose of making contracts for the noxt four years, it is easy to sce how the government would have been cheated had the scheme through, Newton had a friend at arnosville, Mo, to whom theso papers were sent, and when' he received thom ho redi- rected them over the line, If the plan had gone through the government would have been compelled to pay out about $40,000 extra in the four years of the contract. TE MISTOOK 1118 FATE, Carter Harrison's love story, ‘“The Secrot of the Big Rock,” will be out “in_a few days. 1t is not surprising to find that divorce cuts an important figure in the story. The novel advances the theory that a man canuot be happy until he has found his “fate,” and hat for every man there is a fate somewhere in the world.” The hero is a ricn southerner named Felden, who marries a beautiful neice to fulfill bis father's dying request, but lives unhappily with her and they separate, In the meantimo he meets his fate at a flower show in London, and after a divorce from his wife finds a woman whom he mistakos for his “fate,” but who proves to be the “fate's" younwer sist hey are married and come to Chicago. While spending the summer near the straits of Mackinaw he is accident- ally drowned, and with the assistance of a negro servant his wife commits suicide, and is buried beside him ut Big Rock. Later tha negro dies and also reposes near the same monument, Big ok, with its double tragedy, i T the routo of stean ers on ‘their way from the ‘“Soo" to Mack- inaw. NO CAUSE FOR ALARM. Such good citizens as may, from reading I'rod J. Stanton's speoch in the western con- #1gss, have become foarful for the peace of the country can now calin_their flustered foc Colonel John Arkins, editor of the Rocky Mountain News, who is nt the Palmer house, says that Stanton’s words should not be consideced a tocsin of war. “Stanton,” said the colonel, pushing back his soft felt and exposing the front of his dome of the ht to the breeze, *‘Stanton is a sto ck v and an old pioneer. Ho likes notoriety, and knowing that the only way to got it is to say something that nobody else daves to say, ho says it, but he 13 harmless and a zood fellow.” “T'he'colonel has great hopes of the result of the congress, WESTERN PEOPLE Among the western today were the following : At the Grand Pacific—Mr. and Mrs, S.

JEPTHAN Thero s a tradition to the effect that in the summer the public’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of music, and Omaha seemingly respects a few traditions very reverently, for three amateur entertainments have inter- ested the people tho present week, the pro- duction of “Zanie" at Creighton college on Tuesday ovening, Master Charles Higgins' benofit Thursday evening and the premiere of “Iphigenin’ at Boyd's lnst evening. A short introductory programme was given as a curtain raiser preceding the sacred can- tata, Mrs. Moeller, Mr. W. A. Derrick, Mr. 1. M. Tréynor and Mr. Jules Lumbard ap- pearing in solos. Of tho cantata thero is little to besma. [t is written in_a very severe st7le, telling tho story of Jephthah's sacrifice in a manner that warrants little praise. The distinct hit of the cvening was made by C. K. Cralio in the character of Jephthah, who gave an in- tellizent rendering of the role. He is pos- 10f u rich bass voice, which, with culti- tion, would bring its possessor fame on the concert platform, S. E.

Oontinued Outgo of Gold Has a Daprossing Tofluence on Business, IRON MARKET WEAK AT PITTSBURG, Trade at Western Cities Quiet But Very Hopeful-—-Satisfactory Res ports from the South —In« crease in Failures, w York, May -R. G, Dun & Co.'s Weckly Review of Trade say The continued outgo uf gold has a depress- Ing influenco, The fall in the prices of all commodities has been abolt 8.8 per cent in two wooks. The local monoy market: is fairly supplied at moderato rates, as are other eastern and western markets almost without exception, but at a fow southern points money is close or tight ana much cau- ton in oxtonding credits prevails, The treasury has pmid out during the week but £600,000 moro than it hias taken in of ordinary currency, buthas also put out $200,000 more fractional silver. At most places trade seems healthy and there is not more than tho usual complaint about collections, he iron business is rather weakened at Pittsburg by the prospect of increased sup- plies and is very dull at Cleveland, but some- what more demand is secn at New York and Philadelphia for various forms of manufac- tured iron. Steel rails do not sharo the im- provement and nor is structural iron active, nor, in fact, the rost of building ma- terials, buf thero is more demand for plates, and bar, which has been sold ut $1.65, now commands $1.721. he co uess is still threatened by pro- duction far boyond agreements and the price does not seom to warrant the advance pro- posed for Juno 1.

Trade at western cities is quiot, but very hopeful.

No material injury has boon sustained from drouth in the region tributary to New Orl ns by cotton, sugar or rice, but tho heavy rains have dono groat good.

Endowment Funds of the Episcopal Diocese Secured by Bishop Clarkson. Speaking .of the differenco of opinion among leading Episcopal church people with regard to a division of the endowment funds now in the treasury of the Nebraska diocese, @ promineut member of the diocese said yos- terday to Tur Bre “I can’t see how any man who claims to be a member of the Episcopal church in Ne- braska can be so ignorant as to say that a part of the endowment fund over which the difference of opinion has arisen was contrib- uted by people who roside in the territory now in the diocese of the Platte, Ivisa fact, known to every well informed member of the church, that only a very small portion of the endowment fund was contributed by any- body in Nebraska or the west. This fund was almost entirely the gift of the late Bishop Clarkson’s friends in the east. The mcome of the fund was to be devoted to the salary of the bishop and it is scarcely sufi- clent’ to pay Bishop Worthington's ~salary. The salary of Bishop Graves, who is making an effort to have this fund divided, is paid from the general wissionary funas from out- side of the state. *T understand that Bisbop Graves will hold thata partof the Trinity Cathedral fund ought to go to the diocese of the Platte also, and that would be very little more unreason- able than to claim a shave of the endowment fund, The new diccese is a missionary di- vision, and will be assisted by general ‘mis- sionury funds. It has no just claims upon the endowment fuud of the original diocese.” About, How It Cam Now, doctor, it's no use.

[v.contains half a dozen lines and provides that section 21, chapter 20 of Connell's compiled ordinunces of the city of Omaha be repealed, Yesterday morning the members who are not on the “inside" discovered the true mean- ing of the proposed law. ‘The section that this ordinance proposes to repeal is the one that provides that saloons shall bo closed between the hour of midnight and 4 o'clock in the morning, When this was discovered there was a hustling to unite the forces, but the mefl'who favor the pas- sago simply stood byand laughed nt the otbers, ' Tho ordinance will be reported back next Tuesday vight with the Yecommendation that it do pass. Tho friends of tho moeasure claim that they will not only puss it, but will put it over the mayor's voto, providing that gautle- man withholds is approval. Mayor Cushing, in spoaking upon the sub- Ject, said: “It is not my custom to talk of things that may happen, but I have no hesi- tancy in speaking of this!
