McNamara was thrown from a Milwaukee freight train Tuesday night near the Chautauqua grounds and killed. He was picked up by the crew of train No. 65 and brought to this city about noon and an inquest was held over the remains by Coroner Seybert at the undertaking rooms of W.C. Estep. Ofoer J. M. Murphy of tho police force stated in his testimony be- fore the jury that he saw McNamara at the Pacific house Monday afternoon urnder the influence of liquor and asked him some ques- tions, ascertaining that he was a cigarmaker out of a job and that he intended to boat his way over the Milwaukee that night to Perry, where he had the promise of some work. He was accompanied by a man named Minor, who was also going to Perry with him. During the afternoon he was seen at a number of saloons and nothing further was heard from him until his body was picked up by the side of the truck, where it had fallen, The body was found by some track walkers, who sent a telephono message to the station at Underwood notifying the depot authorities of the accident, so that the men on the next train could keep a lookout for it. McNamara had evidently been thrown from the train when it was in rapid motion and had fallen fifteon or tweuty feet down a steep embankment to the hard earth below. The indications were that he had lived for some little time after he struck, but he had been dead & long time when chlmd up, and his body was frozen stiff. {is njuries consisted of a broken left arm ana numerous bruises about the limbs, and his scalp was torn off from the skull, A. Curry, W. B. Stannard and W. G. Dow, tne trainmen who picked up the re- roains, and L.

Hendricks of Shenaudoah had an ex- perience Tuesday night that has caused & deuse cloud of aisgust to settle down over his soul. He whiled away the evening at 8 Main stroet saloon, shaking dice, shooting craps, and indulging in all tue wila-eyed amuse- wents that & man just from the country would be likely to indulge in, untl he haa all the monoy be started 1o with and all of his companions’ éxcepting 20 cents.

The victim of adversity iutro- duced bimsell as Frank Sheriden, and Heu- dricks was soon rlulullv s1n00zing the bours away while his room wmate lay and thought. ~Pretty soon he got up and went downstairs, telling the night clerk he wvould not sleep and was going out for a walk. His #otious were somewhal susplcious wud ihe THE police were notified. An officer who was sent to the scene to 100K up the case met himn and took him to the his name as C. J. Tobin, In the meantime Hendricks had d when he looked at his r‘|otMnT surprised to find every kot inside out and all ‘his property gone, ncluding papers and $20 in money, At the station Tobin, who was “dead broke'’ when he went to the hotel, had about #20 in his cket.

Want Economical Administration, A bill is veing arawn up and wili be pre- sented to the legislature this winter by Rep- resentative Ware, providing for a radical change 1n the administration of city govern- ments. A wove of this kind has been quietly talked of for several months past, and a short time ago the Board of Trade, at one of its sub rosa meetings, took the matter in hand and appointed a committes to draw up the bill in proper shape. Just what provisions the bill contains its framers will not say, ex- cepting that it will have a tendency to knock down the salaries of city officials all along the line. *‘Here in Council Bluffs," smid & prominent Board of Trade man yesterday, ““we need something of this Kind very much. The ad- ministration that was elacted on a reirench- ment and reform platform has proved to be one of the most expensive in certain respects that the city has ever and the partiou- lar itoms of oxpense that' are calling forth this wail from us taxpayers are of the kind that the clty in gencral reaped littlo if any benefit from. Wo propose to sce if we cun’t change affairs around so as to cut off a fow of the superfluous heads certain departments of the city government now have, and the bill we are nreparing is a step in the right direciion. Of course, the committee to which the bill is referred in the legislature may sit down on our plan or may revise it bevond all recognition before it is finally passed, but we intend to see what can be dono toward er- fecting a change.” Leading drugstore and néws stand,Davis. .

He was traced as far as Omaha, but there the clew was lost and nothing further bas been learned of him. Mrs. Pollard was seen about the matter esterday, but was deciaedly noncommittal. She admitted that the young man d ais- Fpmred. and that her money was also mis- sing, but she ventilated her ideas at con- siderable leagth as to the prying newspaper reporters who hunted her up.

Matta is the Hero of the Hour—Naval Of- cers Talk Fight SANTIAGO, Chill (via Galveston, Tex.), Jan, 27.—[Special Dispatch to the Associated Press.]—The text of Chili’s reply to Presi- dent Harrison’s ultimatum has not yet been made public. It is awaited on all sides with intense interest. The substance of it has already been indicated in the Associated Press dispatches from here, and this, so far as can be learned, meets with general ap- proval on the part of the intelligent classes. The news that President Harrison had sent a special message to congress on Mon- day relating to the points at issue between tho United States and Chili, ana the ai patches published here yesterday and today describing the attitude of the American pub- lic toward the matter have caused no little opular excitement here. The Baltimore ncident, the presidont’s ultimutum and mest and the dangerous teusion of the relations between the two governments have been topics of conversation in all cir- cles. They dominate the newspaper columns 10 the virtual exclusion of all other questicns, The younger and hotter-headed portion of the public continues to indulge in much war talk. Rather than have their government acknowledge its fault ok apologize for its ut- terances, these young patriots declare that they would prefer to see a resort to arms, Such talk as this, it is believed, reflects the opinion of a large element of the common people. Naval Officers Stirred Up. The naval officers are reported to be much stirred up at the thought that they may be called upon to salute the stars and stripes. They go 50 far as to say, according to the re- ports published in today’s papers, that they would sce the Chilian fleet sink before they would salute the American flag. Whatever the government may say off- cially, in withdrawing the offensive note of Senor Matta of Dacember 11, there are abundant indications that Senor Matta’s Eopula\'lty will not in any way be decreased ecause of his authorship of that now famous. dispatch, Instead, it looksvery much as though this was the most popular act of his admin- istration of the department of foreign affairs, While the cabinet has been deliber- ating upon the preciso form of language in which to apologize to the United States for Senor Matta's discourteous and undiplomatic performance, preparations have been actively going on by a committee of leading citizens to honor Senor Matta with a grand and im- Knl\nz banquet. This will take place next Saturday and promises to be a brilliant af- fair? e —— HAVEN'T FOUND HIM YET.

Stanton 1n the North American Review. The Slavic countries and Hungary have already produced operas of sterling merit and startling originality. And what a splendid operatic mine has yet to be ex- ploited for our benefit in Russia, which can boast of not only a national but of au international operatic repertory, in- cluding works by composers of all coun- tries, not excepting Wagner, and which has symphonic and operatic composers like Rubinstein and Tschaikowsky. Turning to Bohemia, there is Dvorak, whose cantatas alone are known to us, but who has written several interesting operas for the Bohemian stage: while England has produced of late yerrs sev- oral grand operas by her native com- posers, some of which have been udopted in the German operatic repertory. France, too, has many modern writers of opera, whose works have not yet been heard here, but which have found bril- liant interpretation, for the most part in Brussels. Why, then, should the oper- atic repertorp of New York be confined to the works of Italian and French com- posers of a quarter of a century or more g0, worn out, and only revived to en- husiasm with the assistunce of excep- ional singers, demanding exceptional prices and necessitating the curtailment of expenses in overy other direction,thus prohibiting the production of opera as an art wore? The operatic repertory o the future must of necessity be cosmo- olitan and international 1n character. uring the last season of grand opera in German the directors of the Metropoli- tan made a beginning in ‘this direction, and only the constant 'aud pressing de- mand on the part of the public for the ‘Wagnerian repertory compelled a post- ponement in carrying out the plans to completion. Such a repertory will enmbrace all na- tionalities and all/ schools. more especially the modern. We are essen- tially a cosmopolitan people, and should not, if we wish to develop further in musical and operatic taste, confine our- selves slaviehly to thé production of the operas of any one school or country. In what language this intérnational reper- tory is to be sung is yet a matter of earn est thought and discussion. It seem- probable that we must eventually adopf the English, but, for the present, we can hardly afford to prohibit by our lan- guage the engagement of the many reat singers of the world who cannot 0, and never will be able to do, them- selves or their art justice in our ver- nacular. This difficulty will presumably seltle itself in good time. F‘ortunuw\y we can feel nssured of this: that what- ever opera is presented in New York in its artistic compieteness, the sdudience will not fail to give it the necessary sup- port, not because the opera house is the conter of fashionable resort, but because they are themselves imbued with the true artistic spirit of appreciation of what is high and true in musical and operatic art. —_— Seven Thousand Miles of Wheels. If all the locomotives in the United States were coupled together they would make a train of*solid iron and steel over 300 miles long, says the St. Louis Repub- lic. Add the passenger cars and we would have 300 miles more of wood and iron; this would give us a gigantic pas- senger train 600 miles in length, couut- ing both engines and cars. Should we want a huge ‘‘mixed” train we might add the ‘‘box,” *flat,” and every other kind of freight car, and our train would then have a total length of over 7,000 miles! The passenger cars in this gigan- tic train would be capable of seating 1,500,000 people, and upon the freight cars couid be loaded the weightof all the pyramids of Egypt, and all the state capitol buildings in the United States besides. Verily, great is the railroad system of America, 1t Worked. At a matinee performance in one of the theaters, says the Tribune, a little man who sat in” the parquet leaned for- -ward and spoke in a i‘oud whisper to the lady sitting on the seat directly in front of him: *Fan,” he said, I wish you would take off that blooming hat of yours. 1 cun’t see a thing that's going on.”” **Sir!” haughtily exclaimed the lady, turning round. *Tbog your pardon,” rejoined the 4it- tle ‘man in the same loud whisper, *'I thought you were my sister.
