Dr. Bryson Starts a Orusade Against the Bellinger Tustitate, ARREST OF THE CHIEF AND ONE HELPER. Charged with Practicing Medicine Without Authority from the State Board of Health — Other Doctors are Liable. Dr. W. G. Bryson, the Omaha doctor who took an active part in the Investigation that was made of the Omaha medical institute, and that resulted in the exoneration of the doctors of the institute from all chares of criminal proceedings, has turned his atten- tion to the Belllnger hospital of this city, and announces that it is the next institution which he proposes to annihilate, With this purpose ne filed an _information agalnst . P. Bellinger yesterday morning in superior court, charging him with practicing medi- cine without having a permit from the state board of health, as required by law. At the same timo he filed a similar information against . Grung, ono of the assistants at the hospital, and Grung was arrested night beforo last. Dr. Bellingor was arrested yesterday, but was immediately released on his own recog- nizance, to appear next Tuesday morning 's a representative of the state board of health will be on the ground to prosecute the case. “The fact that Dr. Billinger did not record his certificate from the state board of health he accounts for simply on the ground of negligence, and not out of a desire to make trouble.

Tho latter is doad as a door nail sineo the Carlow eloction, and s not a source of interest to anyone. A ma jority of 2,000 in a poll of 5000 is a hard enough fact to ponesrate the dullest brain. Besides Parnoll said he would win. An analysis of the voto shows that not more than a thousand home rulers voted for his candidate.

Loxnoy, July 1L.—The emperor of Ger- many remained at the state ball until 3 o'clock this morning. AtS o'clock he arose and break- fasted. Sbortly bofore nooa the emperor in- spected the yeomen of the guard. ‘Then, in company with the empress and attended by a brilliant suite, the emperor drove to the rosi- dence of the German ambassador, where the imperial party was entertained at lunch. In the afternoon the emperor and empress left London for Wimbledon to be present at the reviow of the troops. [u obedience to instructions from the war oftice all the vulunteers were equipped in full marching order, and the exverts who watched their arrival were unammously of the opinion that the men made a fine muster. Many of the volunteer regiments, in order to show the emperor that they were not such ‘‘rear raukers” as some people supposed, preferred to march in full heavy marching order all tho way to Wimbledon and back again to their regimental districts, some of these regiments thus falling in for a good twenty to twenty-five miles tramp. Admiration for the Volunteers. By 2:30 p. m. all the repulars, numbering from six to seven thousand men, were in tho positions assigned to them, though the volun- teers were still pouring in a living ‘stream up the commosn. KEverybody admired and commented upon the oxcellont order and ad- mirable steadiness with which the voluntecrs marched upon the ground, even the veteran army officers admitting that the tradesmen did very well. The en- tire body of troops was under the supreme command of his royal highness. the dulo of Cambridge, commander-in-chief of the British army. The volunteers numoered about eighteen thousand men. The infantry was_divided into two divisions under the command of the duke of Connaught and Sir Wood, K. C. B., respectively. All the br gades wero massed in_readiness for the r view at ) p. m., and at that hour the duke of Cambridge, followed by a numerous staff, passed the line on a preliminary inspection, which showed the troops to be in a very cred- itable condition. Arcival of the Emperor. By this time the emperov and his party were drawing near the common and at % o'clock the artillery thundered out a salute and the German imperiai standard was run up on the flagstafl at tho viewing stand in place of the British standard, and almost immediately the emperor of Germany, accom- panied by the prince of Wales and 'a staft of brilliant uniforms and foilowed by un escort of the Life guards, dashed up to the saluting point in gallant style, the horse thundering over the sward, the' ofticer’s and soldier’s arms flashing and clashing with harmony. Arriving at the saluting point tho emperor and his party drew rein and as the emperor salutad he was received by the duko of Cambridge und staff, while a royal salute’ was fired by the artillery. ‘The emperor was mounted upon a magnificent black charger and was dressed in the uniform of a field marshal of the White Cuivassiers. Review of the Troops. When the sound of the last gun of the salute had died away among the distant hills the emperor, attended by his staff, led by the duke of Cambridge, proceeded to'inspect tho British rogiment and the voluntoers. Aftor tnis inspeetion, which seemed to impress the emperor with a favorable opinion of tho equipments, tho ruler of = Gor- many rode back to the saluting point, As soon as_the emperor was seated in front of the stand with the duke of Cambridge near him and with their two staffs behind them the march commenced and 1asted an hour and a hulf. Not ouly the emperor but the German military critics behind bim were of the opinion that the march past was po formed in_splendia style. So much was the omperor impressed with the soldierly b havior of the volunteers thatou several oc casions he addressed complimentary remarks to the officers in command of the different corps which met with his warmest approval, referring in warm terms to the smartness of the men's appearance and to the precision with which they passed the roviewing point. As the emperor procceded to luspect the ~troops and as tho troops marched past the reviewing pomt the com- bined bands of the guards played the Ger. man anthem. After the cavalry came the regular_artillery brigades, and they were followed in turn by the infantry. After the entire body of troops had marched past tho lines wore reformed, the soldiers presented arms, another royul salute was fired and the revicw was ut an end, Immediately after the termination of these military ceremonies the emperor started for tho Crystal palace to witness a parade of tha volunteer fire dopartment and a grand di play of fireworks in the evening. The imperial party after inspecting the fire brigade on the grounds of tho Crystal palace, dined privately inthe palace. They ufte wards viewed' the display of fireworks u ranged in tueir honor and then returned to Buckingham pala — Split in Texas Alliance ¥ e, Fowr Wowtn, Tex., July 11,.—The principal foature of the state alliance convention this morning was a speech by U, 5.

GOULD LINES O‘PPOSED TO THE ALTON, Present State or Affairs Makes it Diflicult to Discover a Remedy ixcellgnt Chance for Scalpers. Cnircago, July 11, —The meeting of mana. gers of the Western Passenger association i3 & of the past and absolutely no progress n made toward tho settlement of the questions on which Chairman Finley and the Chizago & Alton road are at logkerheads, It was demonstratod at the morn- ing session that o majority of tho roads still maintainca thelr opposition to the Alton’s policy in the controversy and wero disposed to sustain the chairman at all hazards. This was made so clear to General Manager Chappell of the Alton that he did not attend the afternoon session at all, and the other managers, after a half hour's in- formal discussion of the subject, adjourned without reaching any conclusion. Thus the movement to restore harmony through the intervention of the general mun- agers foll flat, While the Rock island and the Chicago, St. Paul & Kausas City strongly defended tho Alton's position the Chicago & Northwestern favored o compromise and all |Iu' vest declaved in favor of sustaining nan Finley, The Gould lines seemed d the opposition to the Alton, snd therd e those who thought th saw in this a scheme on the part of Jay Guuld himself to force the Alton iuto a position frem which it can only escape by joining the western traftic association. The report has been current for that Mr. Finloy's course throughout had been dictated by tie presidents of the lines in the latter associution for the purpose of coercing the Alton management into signing the pre dent's agreement, This, bowever, is emphati- cally denied by Mr. Finley, As matters now stand it is dificult to seo how the present state of af s can be rem- edied. Chairman Finley ruled this morning that it was not i order for the association to reverso or aftirm his decision because the Alton had not appealed therefrom. Tno Alton refused to make an_appeal because it denies that the chaivman bad any au- thority in the first place to order the advance in rates between St. Louis and Chi- cago, aud the matter rests. In the meantime the privileges of a member of the Western Passenger association has veen denied the Alton, and that road can now apparently pro- ceed to t of its business in any mun- ner that suits itself unhumpered by any agreo- ment with competing lines. The Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fo, more than any other road, is using the Western Trafic association as a'sort of court of ap- rd of commissions, which was ain today, had under consider tion several cases in which the Atchison is the party in chief interest. Oune chase has reference 10 Colorado tickets, which admit of considerable mavipulation by the Denver & Rio Grande and Rock Isiuud roads. It is instance, that when the Kio Grande sells a ticket from some point on its line to Chicazo by way of Deaver and the Rock Island road the atter bas an oppor- tunity to handlo the ticket between Colorudo Springs and Denver both ways, and the chances for scalping are excellent. The Atchison asks that the tickets shall be sold only by the direct routes, which would shut Deunver out. wook New Passengor Route to Boston.

HE MAKES A GOOD OFFICER. Hon, Lorenzo Orounse is Popular on Ac- count of His Ability, SOMETHING CLERKS DO NOT LIKE. This Thing of Laying Off When Any- one Dies Has Been Stopped— How to Make Registered Letters Safe, Wasnixaroy, July 11.—[Special to Tne Ber.|—~President Harrison has made 1o more popular appointment since the begin ning of his administration than that of the last assistant sccretary of the treasury, Mr. Lorenzo Crounse of Omaha, Mr. Crounse was not a stranger in Washington when he accepted the appointment. He had served one term in congress and was somewhat familiar with departmental procedure, but he had nover held an appointive office here aud in consequenco had everything to le has proved an apt scholar. Ho nas mastered the details of the department thoroughly and some of his immediate subordi ‘e sur- prised to find that he can give them valuable points as to the management of their respec- tive burcaus, Me. Crounse has succeeded in getting rid of n great deal of official red tape in conduct- ing the affuirs of his office, It is far easior to get properinformation from him than from any of the other assistants in the department, and besides tnis he has a manner about him which makes him popular with all who have business in the department. Tho fact that Mr. Crounse was not an applicant for the po sition and that he is o man of independent fortune, makes him a bad individual for the bull dozer to tackle. The walking delegates who wanted to force the secretary of the treasury to take back the discharzed plate printers were the first to discover this fact. They visited Mr. Crounse before they saw the ey himself, and to use the language of ouo of them, *We took him for a granger, but he very soon convinced us that we werd mistaken.? Mr. Crounse has been compellod 1o devote a great deal of time to the selection of sites for public buildings, and the inter- ested real estate speculators who went to visit bim soon learacd that they had a new species of oficial to deal with., The result has been beneficial to the government, aad the assistant secretary has at the same time made an excellent reputation for himself. More Grief Holidays. The federal departments were not closed this week on the oceasion_of the funeral of tue late vice president, Hanuibal Hamlin, and the clorks who expected a holiday were disappointed. They don't like the new order of thmus, as they look upon it as a precedent which bus now been_ established and which wili probably result in debarring them from icf holidays" in the future, years it has been the custom in all the exceutive dopartments to close up on the day of the funcral of any man who bad ever served in the cabinet. The technical name of this closing operation was *‘showing re- spect to the memory of the deceased,” but in cvery case the clerks who were relensed from laboi on that day forgot all about the off the cessation of labor, per cent of the malos de the day to pleasure, generally of a hils kina. It is understood now that this is t stopped entirely, an least during the ¢ eoce of the present administration. If an memver of the present cabinet dies tne dd partments will ' be closed of course, and if cither ex-President Cleveland or' Hayes should pass away there would undoubedly be this outward and visible sign of official grief displayed. But the line will b drawn at 08 1 “There is a very pecunar class of men in the departments to whom this new order of auything but a vleasant iunovation, into any of the federal bureaus today and 1l find a lot of gray headed old fellows ave been iu oftice since the war, Ask any one of these and he will tell the present residence and_occupation living ex-member of the cavinet He will also be able to tell you the exact physical condition of the entire lot. He has mude this thing a study w order to figure out the chances for ‘griof holidays’ overy year. The new regime makes all this knowledge worthless, and studies of this character will probably be abandoned for the future, To Insure Registered Letters. 1t is probable that strenuous effort will he in_ the next congress to bring about a radical reform in the registration of letters. Every postmaster, and_every person directly connéeted with the postal service realizos that the present system instead of cnbancing the safety of money sent through the Is simply serves as asign for dishonest postal cmployes to point out to them which letters would be orth stealing. The English postal regula- tions notify the sender of lettors that he can register any package be desires to send rough the maiis by paying a registry feo of 2 pence or 4 cents. Ho is also notified that the payment of this fee insures to the extent of & (§25). By paying doublo the feo he can have have his letters insured for double the amount, Tnquiries have been set on foot through our consuls, to ascertain how mauy of the pean governments have wdopted the Euglish system and what the result bas been in the matter of losses. It is expected that the will be received in time to be of service when congress reassembles, and it velieved that they will show that the percentage of loss, under their insurance system. is far less than in the United States, where the govern- ment simply aceepts twelve cents additional for pomting out valuable letters to dishonest men, One of the principal ofticials of the post- ofice dopartment said, in discussing this uestion today: *Our present system is as bad us it is distonest. [ myself never think of sending moey in a_registered letter, my experience in the postal service having taught me the folly of such a course. ‘I'heonly occa- the government makes good losses gistered mails is when the blame for the loss ean be dircetly fixed, and where the damages can be collected from the parties at fault. I think that we should take steps towards insuring letters before we think of reducing postage to | cent. The demand for the former is great, while after all there is no Macedonian ery for ‘penny postage,’ Icis o well kuown fact that the express of the conntry would jump at the for 12 cents apiece they would guaratee to insure the of every ono of them and to mako good all losses, provided of course they could have all the business. But tho law is v against permitting private corporation curry letters. ‘or this reason it scems only right that the government should enter 1uto the insurance business in this respect least, especially as money would be made adopting the scheme, - Stole the Re Arcmisoy, Kan,, July 11— |Specinl Telc gram to Tue Bek,|—The sheriff of Washing ton county wants Robert Williatison, who was out on bail on a charge of sellng liquor Yesterday he entered the oftice of the of the peace and abstracted cvery scrup of paper connected with the case,” including his bond, und fled. ‘Uhe thefu of the papers is o felony and f he is caught he will bo sent 1o the penitentiary, Williamson ran [ ! so H.
