e e e e e THEY GUT OFF HIS SALARY, @rain Tnepeotor Blanchard May Be Etarved Out Completely. BTATE BOARD MEMEERS DETERMINID, Yo 1s Rogarded as a Figure Head and the Old War is Again Re- vived--Other Lin- coln Not Lixcony, Neb., Nov. 6.—[Special to Tne | Brr.]-The old war betwean the State Board of Transportation and Grain Inspector Blanchard has broken out afresh, This time tho board has put Blauchard in a state of soige, or in other words, proposes Lo starve and freeze bim out, Blanchard was appointed by the governor to the position of state ggain inspector, but tho board has never taken kindly to him and ho has been a suvject of con demnation both in the meetings of the board and by tho individual members outside of it, Thoey declared him a mere figure head put up to draw o salary, and therefore went to St Louis to wet what thoy termed a *‘competent men to inspect grain” and put hin in as assistant. They openly declared in thewr meotings that as the deputy had to do the work ho should receive good pay and fixed his salary at as high a prico as possible, Despito these open stabs at Blanchard, that gentieman has remained in ofice, and, nccording to the makeshift for the oceasion provided by the board, he had to all ap ancos boen pocketing all monoy receive apply to his own salary. According o reports grain inspection a Omaha has beon very lively and there was every evidenco that both Blanchard and his doputy would make their saluries out of tho fees. Thercfore day before yesterday the mombors of the board unanimously pussed & resolution that all fees received by the state grain inspector be turned into the stato treasury. Th solution looked innocent enough on its 1 but there is a deep significneo in in it, It means that Mr. Blanchard is to be starved out. ‘There is no provision made by statute for the payment of the stato grain inspector and all foes once turned into the state treasury cannot be tuken out. At first to meet the emergency the board instructed tne inspector to apply the fees to s salary and that of his assistant. But the old antagon- fsm against Blanchard has asserted itself and this ouly source of revenue has been cut off. Tho members of the board smile signifi- cantly when the matter is mentioned. The establishment of the Harris eolovator in Lincoln, the first public warehouse in the state will necessitato the transfer of tho state grain inspector, weighmaster and rogistrar to Lincoln. The members of the board de- clare that the deputies will have plenty of time to look after the private warehouses in Omaba. This will require Mr. Blanchard to personaily Inspect tho grain here, a thing which the members of the board believe him incompetent to do. At tho meeting of the Stato Board of Trans- portation this afternoon the members of the poard endorsed the action of the Board of Becretaries in the Pawnoce C overhead bridgo matter. Tho Kansas City & Ne- braska Railway company will therefore have meroly to build an overhead bridge over their “track as far as their right of way on each side. The city will have to build "the approaches. Thera s an intimation that the city attornoy will appeal the case to the su- preme court, Mr. C. E. Perkins, president of the Cbi- cago, Buriington & Quincy railroad, Mr. George W. Holdrego, jr., general manager of the 1. & M. Railroad company, and Mr. T. M. Marquette, general attorney of the road, appeared before tho board, and it was made to appear that in the event that the suit now ponding in the supremo court of the state, whorein the state, upon the relation of the attorney gonoral, is plaintiff and the Re- publican Valley & Wyoming Railroad com- pany is defenaant, was dismissed,thosaid Re- publican Valley& Wyoming Railroad company would compléte and put into active opera- tion its line of railroad during the present season, and without delay, as far as Wau- neta, in Chase county, at least. Recognizini the urgent nced of said raiirond to the people the attorney general was directed to dismiss said suit without projudice. Thoe voting aye were Benton, Hill, Allen, Humphroy and Hastings. The completion of this railrond means a groat deal to the people living in the Itepub- lican valley and will be the first railroad con- structed in Nebraska for a year and a half. SPRINGER DIVOECE CASE. The Springer divorce case was given an airing in tho district court today, but the sensational features predicted failed to ma- toriolizo. Mrs. Mary V. Springer, the plain- tiff, asserted merely that her husband, Maltthow E. Springer, who Is u traveling reprosontative of the Richardson Silk com- puoy of Cbicago, received & very andsome salary, but squandered most of 1t and failed to provide her with the means suitablo to hor station in life, and she was forced to fall back upon her aged and widowed mother for support. She was married July 8, 1558, and had one child. A poculiar feature of the case is that on the evemng preceding Mrs. Springer's departure for Iowa to live with her mother hor husband gave a grand lawn fote toa number of friends. Springer failed to put in an appearance to answer tho charges made and the wife was granted a divorce and tho custody of the chila. OUTWITTED A CREDITOR, George Bosselman tells with much zost how ho managed to thwart the schemo of one of his creditors to get the roll of 1,500 which he had safe and secure in his inside pocket. This money Bosselman had saved out of the wrook, *‘bocause,” saia he, “I did ot propose to walle out of town 'like a tramp. “When Hargreaves induced one of my clorks to swear outa warrant against me," he continued, “it was without doubt his plan to have mo searched at the jail, the money taken from my person and then immediately servo an attachment on tho jailer. When I was ar- restea the officers attempted to hustle mo off to the county jail without giving me any chance to see an attorney. I finally saw through the scheme, and coming to a standstill I positively refusod to go any fur- ther until could consult with an attorney. Beeiug that I was very determined the offi- cers granted my reques The first lawyer I thought of was E. L‘ Brown, the attorney for my wife in the divorce suit. I called him up by 'phoue, urging him to be surs to over- take mo beforo [ got to the jail. He did so. At the Jal I asked for a private interview ~ with the lawyer and it was granted. On being alone with Brown 1 omptied my pockets of all the money and other valuaoles [ had ana slid them into Brown's hands. Ho quietly dumped them into his pocket. When I was searched and notbing found on my person, you ought to have seen tno look of astonish- ment that came over the faces of the offi cor Although Mrs. Bosselman has brought suit for a divorce from her husband he has deeded his splendid home to his wife and put her name at tho head of the list of the persons foreclosing mortgages on his store. Bosselman was arralgned this afternoon before Justice Cochiran to answer the charge of criminal intimacy with Miss Lillie Hart. He was found guilty and held to the district oourt for trial. He furnished bonds for his appearance, THAT RIOT CASE. ‘The long delayea trial of Chief of Police Dinges and almost the entire police force for resisting the writ of replevin on gambling appliances, and which ended in almost the entire demolition of the city vault during a somewhbt riotous scene, has been finally decided. It was heard before Justice Cochran and the exciting scenes of that memorable night were re- hoarsed at longth. After hearing all the evidence the jury decided that the police- men had done ‘right in proventing the con- stablo and his posse from seizing, evon by & writ of replevin, the confiscated gambling applisnces which wero belug beld by the cors.

Ofiico seckers have swooped down upon him, and from now until January 1 they will make his 1ifo an almost unbearablo burden. Yesterday at 7 o'clock ho left his home for the purpose of coming down town to attend to some private correspond- enco that had been neglected. By starting at an early hour he hoed to gt his work out of tho way beforo the arrivai of his many admirers.

Ho has simply told tne applicants to file their requests in writing and then they will be considered when the time comes. In spoaking of matters connected with the yoralty Mr. Bemis said that it was a splendid victory; that it was a general up- rising of the people and a demand for honost city government.

Reports from all parts of the couutry show that the business, though interrupted some what by tho elections, has been large in vol- ume. At Boston the failure of the Maverick nk caused some uneasiness, but business coutinues steady and heavy, no lack of conti dence is seen and money 18 easy.
