BENNISON BROS THAYER WILL INVESTIGATE, Affairs at tho Hastings Asylum Will Be Thoroughly Examined. WILL SHOW NO MERCY TO THE GUILTY. No Hospital Officers to Bo Suspended Until the Charges Are Proven— When the New Laws Go Into Effect. LixcoLy, Neb,, Juue 20.—[Special to Tns Bre.]—Tho investigation of the Hastings msylum scandal has boen postponed until next weok, as State Treasurer Hill ana Com- missioner Humphrey will not return until Monday. Tho talk now is that an expert ac- countant shall be employed, who will go through the bocks of the hospital from its in- ception to the present date. The governor says he is in favor of a thor- ough investigation and will show no mer anyone shown to be guilty of malfeasance ofice. He will not pass judgment on the strongth of newspaper reports, howevor, and consequently declines to uceede to tho re- uost of the state board of public lands_and uildings that Superintendent Test and Stow- eriughouse be suspended pending the amination, The governor is also auoted as saying that ho has reason to think the attack on' the officors of the asylum comes from ene- mies of his and is made because tho oficers aro appointees and friends of bis, Dr. Test has been down twice, but Stew- eringhouse has remained studiously way. This absence is the more marked be- cause tho board wrote him June 9 demanding that ho come to Lincoln and explain the ir- rogularities in his accounts. Two days later ho wroto asking the board to suppress publie Rotice of the affair as much as possible, but he offered no explanation and said nothing about coming to Lincoln. OnJune 13 he wrote admitting the duplication mentioned by the board, but he asserted that he also had made the samo discovery. He said the sum fnvolved had been turnod into the cash fund and would appear in tho next quarterly re- port. The board 1s wondoring why it was not included in the lnst report, why M. Liveringbouse took thres or four days to moswor the letter of Juno 9 and why he bas t come to Lincoln to make a personal ex- planation But the board omitted to do one thing, In tho lotter of June 9 mention was® made of only two of the items that appearto have been paid twice. This omission was inten- tional on the part of the board, aud, curiously enough, Mr. Liveringhouso's “atscoveries’ did not’ extend beyond the omitted items, or elso ho noglected to montion i% in his letter. The board are wondering what explanation he will make of that circumstance, THE NEW LAWS, . There are five acts passed by the last logis- lature that will not go into effe il August 1, if the opinion of Attorney General Hastings holds good. The constitution pro- vides that acts without an emergenoy clauso shali not take effect until throo calondar months after the adjournment of the logisla- ture. Differences of opinion prevailed at the state houso as to the iuterpretation of the term ‘‘calendar months,” and the governor {nformally asked the attorney general for an opinion. General Hastings holds that a cal dar month can only begin on the first day d end on the last day of the wouth, The Jogislature adjourned April 4. It 1s his opiuion that the next calondar month did not bogin until May 1, and that the three ocalen- dar months will' not be ended until July 31. The governor will act on that interpretation of the constitvtion, and it 1s pos- siblo that & gumber of appolnt- ments will be delayed in consequence. The acts affected by this ruling are the ware- Bouse, tho woeld's fair, the soldiers' home, the eight-hour and the Boyd county laws, A PARTNERSIIP QUARKEL. It was thought that C. R. Richter would withdraw the charge of sooting with {ntent « o kill, made against Lis partnor, W. S. Huff- maa, but tho trial has _been sot for Tuesday. Tho case attracts much attontion because of 1o prominence of the parties iu society as Last night's affair was rtnership disputes run- ning some time back. Mr. Richter alloges that Huffman has overdrawn his account 2,000 and drow checks on the Lincoln Na- tional bank without authority. Richter noti- fled tho bank not to honor the checks. Mr. Huffman says he tried to get Richter to make a buy or sell offer for his hall interest in the tailoring business, but that the latter ro- fused. He alleges that Richter went out yestorday, collected firm accounts to the amount of %0 and de- clined to enter them on tho flrm books. Angry words over theso collections led to the personal encounter, and in the ex- citoment Huffman pullea a revoiver and fired one harmless shot. His bail is $500 and nis bondsmen are E. K. Criley, L. C. Burr and F. M. Baldwin. Friends are secking to make a reconciliation, and Richter's charge may be withdrawn, but it has been detor- mined that a dissolution of partnership shall take place next weok. Richter is running the business today and Hoffman will take chargo for Monday. CITY NoTES, W. A. Sellick has beon appointad alderman from tho Fourth ward in tho place of Coun- cil Archibald, dece Clarence Estes, convicted of burglarizing a storo, was senténced today to tho reform school. His mate, Frank Miller, went to the penitentiary for two years and a half, Tho creditors of Maxwell, Sharpe & Ross have asked for the appointment of D. New. man as receiver in placo of Maxwell, who, it is alleged, has failed to filo an inventory of the stock, A wolan claiming to be the wife of arley Crow, the dotective, has been try- 0 to get a warrant for his arrest for abus- ing hor. She ncted peculiarly ana the offi- cors advised her to get a divorce. Crow says sho is subject to temporary mental aberra- tions and says he will engage a nurso for her. Riloy Ables and W. Sheldon were landed today for stealing two horses of Charles Tibbotts, Tho owner tracked them to Syracuse, whers the thieves were caught clipping and disguising them. ST Knights of Labor. Tho meeting of the joint local assemblies of the Knights of Labor in Green’s hall will be of no small importance. Besldes having the state officers present, arrangements will bo made to organize the city and county by or- ganizing a county assembly in oach coun where two ormore assemblies once. This plan has worked so successfully 10 the farmors’ alliance the knights will try to bring thore members more closely togother Dy the county organization which will have an organizer to do all the work in the county, which will practically do away with the state organizers and saye a big oxpense to the stato assembly. Thoe state oxecutive board at its last meoting put au organizer at work ou o rogular salary to organize the countios and local nssemblios whore tho county as- semblies as yet have not boen organized, and a big offort ‘will bo made by the Omaha Kknights to got a county organizer and part of the expense to be paid by the state ussembly.

Residents of East Omaha and Florenco precincts are taking an_active interest in the efforts being made by R. S. Berlin, Omaha’s ropresentative on tho Missouri river commis- sion to induce tho commission to take steps toward the protection of the lands lying south and east of Florence from further dar- age by tho river. At tho last meeting of the commission Mr. Borlin_introduced a rosolution, which was adopted, instructing tho assistant engineor in chargs of the works at Omaha '‘to examine the rigut bank of the Missouri rivor between Florence and @ point opposite tho dykes of the Northwestern railway company and report to the commission what dangor, if any, exists of cut-off through Iast Omaha, oF what other necessity, if any, there may exist for protecting the bank roferred to.” James Connelly, who has been working as an assessor in tue territory affected by this proposition, reports that tho property own- ers aro deoply interested in the proposed im- provement. Hesays: ‘“The river south of I"lorence has for a considerablo time been forcing its way south and west of its original channel at a point directly north of Florence lake and it is the well founded bolief of nearly v one in that neighborhood that a sudden overflow may at any time precipitate the course of the river and divert it from its present chunnel, force a passago for itself through Florence lake a by Cut-Off lake and through the many improvements made ad in contemplation i East Onaha, ‘The property owners are much interosted in this mattor and have had several confer- onces on the subject. Some time ago they directed me to communicate with Mr. Berlin and place all the facts before him. Mr. Berlin was already act- ing in the matter on his own benalf, but stimulated by tho extremo ur- geney of the case he has exerted himself 1n overy way to have the board act promptly. Ho thinks work will soon be started which will effectually protect the bank of the river whore it 1s so dangerously threatened and preserve the preseut channel of the river.

MAY HAVE TO ABANDON THE BUILDING. If the Street is Cut as Proposed, it Will Leave the School Thirty Feet Above the Side-, walk. A petition is circulating among tho prop- orty owners, asking that tho grado on L and Twenty-fourth strocts bo changed. The proposed change of grade will entail an ex- pense of §20,000 to $30,000 on the school dis- trict, and then the property will have to be condemned, as 1t will \be utterly uscless for school purposes. The high school 1s only a fow years stand- ing, having been built in 1837 at a cost of 000. Sice then it has had soveral additions and renovations until 50,000 have been expended upon it. Suould the pe- tition be granted this magnificont piece of city proporty must beabandoned. The streot on which the school stands was graded a few years agoand n cut of some seveuteon or oightoen feet made. The potitiouers now ro- quest tho city fathers to increase the cut six oreight feet more, thus raising the school nearly thirty feet above the level of the stroet. Should this demand be agreed to it will ne- cossitate the erection of a heavy stone wall to cost at least $10,000 in order to reuder the property anything like secure, In the opinion of prominent mem- bers of the school board this costly wall would be at least but a temporary pro- tection, and it would bo but a few years be- fore tho school would have to be condemned as unsafe. Tho grounds around the building are small and parents would be very chary about sending their children, as they would be afraid of accidents. A child falling down his very steep embaukment would, in the language of the town be a “dead duck." When the ¢ graded this street threo years ngo ne all the property ownors along it had to mortgage their property to poy the tax assessment, and if the proposed chango of grade is maie'they will all have to abandon their homes eatirely. Onttle Inspection. The inspoction of “attle at the South Omaha yards has long been noted for its thoroughness. A notable instance of this occurred last week. A fine Heroford steer, '0no of a bunch which arrived at the South Omaha stock yards a few days ago, had a small Tamnp on his upper jaw. Ho becamo a subjogt of more than usual interest. This stecr wag the top of the bunch and the owner assured bis commission man that the lump on this steer’s jaw was caused by an injury when it was o calf. It had boen there to his knowledge for more than a year, aud had uot grown any during that time. He was positiveit was only a thicken- ing of tho bone and should any question ariso ubout 1t o wanted his interests pro- tected, The experienced e; detected this steer, es of the yard inspector d he was dsolutod and coudomned. The commission man ontered a protest in the interest of his patrc and called in a veterinary surgeon, who issted u certificate of sounduess. The inspector re- fused to release tho steor on this showing, The managoment of the stockyards com- pany called another veterinarian to have the or carefully examined again. This vet erinarian found the condition of this lump was such thata positive diagnosis could not bo mude, but said the probability was that it was true lump Jaw; that a post-mortem examination would be re quired to muke 8 positive diagnosis. The commission man agread to have the aulmal slaughtered providing he could geu fair value for the carcass of the steer if the lump proved to be only an enlargemont of tho bone which he belioved it to bo. Nono of the slaughtering houses would buy the steer subject to examination. They declined to have anything to do with an animal which did not receive the inspector's approval. The caso was terminated by shooting the steer. The head was skinned and the tumor divided with a saw and it was examined by many interested in this case. All wore satisfied that it was lump jaw and the mjury of tho bono theory was orroneous. A microscopic examination of the tumor showed 1t to be genuine lump jaw or actinompcosis.
