Visits Made by Them to a Coal Merchant and a Minister, CONTRIBUTING TO RUSSIA'S RELIEF, Hamer Comes Back at W The Rock Istand Depot Police Conrt News nnd Gossip from the dudge Enton eated apito Lixcors, Nob, Jan 5.—[Special to Tne Rer.|—From developments in railroad cir- cles today it looks very much as if the long standing query, “Where will the Rock Is- land depot be located ¢ is in a fair way to be answered, wod that it will be wnswered in fayor of the east side. Today Judge Stow- art, upon applieation of the Rock Island of- fieluls, appointed appraisers to condemn the right of way. I'he gentlemen appointed are €, W. Mosley, L. Helmor, C. W. Pierce and S. W. Beardsloy. ‘They at once set to work, commencing at a pointon the south side of the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley railroad. The route they are to go over is from the above point from Twenty-seventh t0 Eighteenth street, thonce south to Vine street, then on the west side of kighteenth strect through what is known as the Me- Murtry tract to tho corner of It and Eigh- teenth streets, Here the route stops for the prosent, Itis pointed out that the gronnds in the vicinity of Bighteenth and R streots are ad mirably adapt:d for extensive switching and froieht yards, Tho MeMurtry tract veferred to contains about eignteen acres, and the streots leading from the ground to the busi- ness portion of the city are already pavod. O course it cannot yet be definitely an- nounced that the freight depot &nd yards will be located av this point, but indications poiut strongly to such a conjecture. Hamer's Reply to W Judgo Hamer comes back at Webster Eaton today in a manner well calculted to malco that gentleman regret that he had ever como 1nto conrt. Readers of Tik Bi will reeall ap item in theso columns a weck or teu days ao to the offeet that Mr. Eaton, who had signed Judge Hamer's bond in a contest case before the supremo court, had requested the honorable court to rolieve him from tho responsibilitios of a bondsman. In his petition Mr. Iaton alleged a great many unsavory and unvleasant things about Judge Hamor and wound up by stating under oath that he considered the judge wholiy insolvent and unablo to dischiarge au honest obligation. Tn his answer filed today Juage Hamer ro- plies to each and every one of Mr. Eaton's urid allegations and closes by endorsing that gentleman’s petition to bo released. He statod Mr. Eaton’s mercurial character and well known unreliatility 1 him unde- siraolo as a bondsman.” He prasented the names of Rico Baton, Johu Nutcher, T. N. Cutung and 5. W. Wooley as sureties 1o take the place on his bood made vacant by Webster Eaton's withdrawal. Professional Burglars at Worlk, Lincoln was ovidently visited by a gang of professional burglars last night. The resi dence of M. L. Trester, the lumber and co morchant at the corner of Twenty-sixth and Y strects, was entered some time during last night, 1ngress being secured through a door which had been carefully locked and the key left in the lock on the outside. Iha bous was rausacked and about $100 worth of jow- elry carried away. ‘I'he jewelry consisted of watenes, brooches and ripgs, some of them being prized for more than their mtrir value. ‘I'he family siept through the nicit in blissful ignorance of tho fact that thewr houso had been turned insido out. The residenco of Rev. L. W. Terry, pastor of the East Lincoln Baptist chiurch, was also burglarized during the nignt. The front door had evidently boen unlocked by a skele- ton koy, as thero was no_other evidence that the lock had boen tampered with. Here tie thieves secured a wateh and chain und other articles of jewclry, a fur trimmed overcoat and a pocketbook with about $10 in it. Items from the Police Dock: Judeo Houston was at his old desk in polico court this morning after au absence of nearly four months. Charlie Wilson was up on visiting a house of prostitution. Last night when the ofticers swooped down upon hin he jumped through a window and effected a temporary escape. He was tracked in the snow, howover, and soon recaptured. The woman found with him -vas also brought to tho station, but this morning both protosted their inpocence so strongly ana gave such plousible reasons for being found together thut the judge postponed their trial pending further investigation, Walter Clark and F'ranle Smith had a pre- liminary hoaring on_the chargo of grand la cony. Tho evidence pointed strongly to their guilt aud they were bound over to tho district court” in the sum of 2,000 ench. They aro the clothing thieves menuoned in these columns yesterday. O'Connor anaCox, the two festive gentle- mon charced with highway robbery, were released for want of prosecution, Stella Brown, Carrie Sibley and Clara Paimer, threo giddy residents of the Hutch- ins block, put up §14.20 cach.

As she was ing an alley on West Madison streot near her home some unknown man stunned her with an won wreneh, dragged her wto an alloy and stamped_upon hor until she was almost inscnsible. Ho was frightened by a passerby and escaped. The scene of tho crime is a very public place and there are many olectric lights in the vicinity. Democratic Politicians in a Brof Certain Springfield politicians favor the commencement of a movement at once to organizo the stute in tho interest of Gen- cral Palmer and prepare to give him a pocket delegation. Many of the general’s best, friends are opposed (o this course. They thiuk it the part of wisdom to await develop- monts. General Palmer himself would not favor a movement to forco his cnndi- docy, ond it is certan ho does mnot want a pocket delezation. Illinas politicians are very much interested in the question as to whoflior Morrison will succeed himself on Interstato Commerce commission. It is be- lieved that if ho should not be reappointed he would return to Hlinois and immediately proceed to horn up the political earth like an d ‘Texas steer. This possiblity nas given democrats a good deal of alarm. They that if Morrison gots @ eyo in his effort to securo reappointment he will ascribe it to the influenco of Springer and Palmer.

It was the firat salo of the horse market, and Mr. Babcock, M. I ericks and everybody connected with tho Stock exchange were delighted with the auspicious beginning of the new entorprise. Somo magnificent spocimens of horseflesh were in the stalls, and buyers were on hand from almost every part of the country, Tho bidding was lively, the sales brisk, and overything on hand was bought, Above all, both™ sellers and purchasers were satisfied with tho prices, Some of the selfers ae- clared that the prices were far botter than those at_Chicago, while on the other hand tho professional ' purchasers declared that they auw a chance to make money by buying at the Omaha market. O. W. Herrick and G, H. Olson, both of Valparaiso, Ind., bought five splendid speci- mens of horsoflest for only §500. They ex- pect to doublo their money. J. J. Eliis of Snelbina, Mo, teen horses, paying tnerefor an £100, John Lanam of Palmyra brought in fifteen head of horses, good chunks, coaches and drafts, and was delighted to find every one s0ld at a good prico.

The paving of all other streots in tho city has been invariably pald for by the persons owning property abuiting on the street paved. What oceasion is thoro forexpecting an exception in this case?” A number of citizons, among them coun- cilmen, were seen and questioned in regard to the matter, but the opinions of most of them were comprehended in a tali by Mayor Sloane. He said: **A ceoraing to all precedents the payment for paving is made by the persons owning property abutting on the street or streets paved. “That is tho only fair way, 6s. such a magnificent improvement increases the value of the property a good many dollars’ worth more than the cost of the pavemernt and should bo paid by them.

It can’t afford to do'othiorwise, as it has put on its armor 1o fight the Barber asphalt monopoly, and a good pavement put_down in South Omaha would be a_splendid adyertisement for it everywhero in the central west. Further- moré, the company has emploved South Omaha laoor almost exclusively, while Fugh Murphy and other persons doing work here have imported their labor hero and nov a dollar was spent in the city even. in buying menls. *“I'ie California company attompted oven to use South Omaha sand; but it cost £10,000 and proved a failure, All that pavement had 10 be replaced. . “I'hero have besn a good many defective spots in the new pavement that escaped the oyes of our inspectors, but the keen eyes of the Stradamant suporintendent discorned them and they wore repiaced with good material. As mayor and eitizon I am anxious to sec tho best inierasts of the city looked aftor and not encourage any feeling for or agaiust any particular corporation,” Dragged by a Train, As a mun named Wilson was crossing tho tracks on N street on his wauy to work at Cudahy’s yesterday morning he was struck by a train that was backing at that placo. His clothing caught on the car in some un- accountable manner and he was dragged several yards before his perilous predicament was discovered. After the irain was stopped ho aropped to the ground, but was lifted to nis fect by the persons who rushed to his rescue. He presented a sorvy plisht, his clothes were in tatters and his face and hands were covered with blood. An exam- ination by physicians showed that he badly but not fatally injurea, although ho complained of pains in his chost which the doctors say might indicate a dangerous con- dition, The injured man was taken to his howe in the northeastern part of the city.
