WHAT FREE COINAGE MEANS Financial Oircles Already Disturbed by the Proposed Legislation, IF THE BILL PASSES GOLD WILL GO UP New York Bankers airing About th vous Co Anxiously 5 of the Mensul dition Quite Gen- the o Prosp 518 FOURTRENTI STRERT, WastiNaros, 1. C., March 2. Atthe Treasury department today & very nervous condition of affairs in the finAncial ciroles of the east was reported as a result of the agitation in ocongress of freo coinage. Aotine Secretary of the Treasury Spaulding told Tue Bur correspondent that while there -was no real ground for this uneasiness it was beginning to exist toan extent which made affairs very unsatisfactory aud pre- sented a threatening outlook. He said tho country at large and the general government 1n particular was like a bank, everything run along smoothly till reports of con- templatca questionabio actions wero circuluted, thon there was & run on it whether tnere was any roal danger or not. From Now York bankers tho Treasury do- partmont officials have receivea the informa- tion that should a freo colnage bill pass the houso gold will be listed on the New York exchange for tho first 1imo since the resump- tion of specio payments. [t is belioved at the Treasury department that gold will actually be listed if the louse passes the freo colnagé bill, unless thero is immediate assur- ances that {t cannot pass the senate, which is improbable, and that the listiug of gold will be followad by an advance in its pres ent par value to at least onc-eighth of a cent premium. Rewarding Loyal Indians, As anticipated In a Brx: special last night, Benator Pettigrew today reported, with fa- vorable recommendation from the committee on Indiou affairs, his bill appropriating 811,600 to pay the Yankion Sioux scouts who ed under General Sully in 1564 Senator Pettigrew’s report 1s VOry compre- hensive, and will probavly occupy fifty closely printed pagos. 1t covers in & most interesting way the enure services of the Yankton Sioux who have served the foderal government in war times, In the report is a statement by the ohief of the Yanktou Sioux, Wasnixotos Buneiv or Tae Ber, % ‘which BAYS that the red men who served undor Genoral Sully and helped to proteet the white citizens against the attacks of hostile Indians did not enter the service for a monetary con- sideration, but becausu thoy believed it wns right: that nis hands and those of his peovle have vever been red with the blood of white men: that they were always coverod with the blood of their own race. Sevator Pettigrew makes the following ptatement for the commitice in reporting his bill. *“The Yankton Sioux Indians reside upon their reservation on the east side of tho Missouri river in South Dakotaand have peen tho friends und allies n war of the United States since 1851. In the spring of 1564 General Sully enrolled fiity-one of these In- dians as scouts and 1ssued o them some guns and condemned clothing and promised them ndditional compensation at some future time. General Sully says no specific sum was stated. The Indiaps say they were to ro- coive £300 each, and that they wero in the service over nine months. In 1871 the War department pald these scouts §75 each. At sirst the indians refused to accept this sum, but wero told that they had bettor take it, as receiving that amount” would not in any way prevent them from getting the remaiuder of the 8300 which they clain was due.” Home Loterests Neglected. It will require a great deal of pressure upon Representative Bryan and the two house committees having the subjects under consideration to bring ubout favorable action -upon tho bills increasing tho appropriation for the new federal building and the estab lishment of @ branch mwint at Omaha. Tho sanate passed the building bill early in the session and sent it over Lo the bouse where Mr. Bryan beoame responsible for it, so there might be no excuse whnatever forn failure of final action. Mr. Bryan appears not to be exercising himself over either of these measures and is showing a_disposition to sacrifice these and other measures of local amportance in the general Interost of the democratio policy to refuse all appropria- tions for public buildings. ‘The same is true of the bill passed by the senats some time ago maiing appropriation for tk. > military storehousw. If the voters of Oman~ aspecially and the old rirst congres- slonul district in general, prefer that Mr. Bryan's eflorts’ should first be directed to thelr local measures instead of the interosts of the democratio party, they would do well to indicate that desire to Mr, Bryan without delay and in language which will not be mistaken, Having aided in the dofeat of the ropublican centrol of the lower bouse of congress and therafore aefeated @ policy which believed in providing ample appropriations to carry for- ward wise public improvements, it now rests with those voters to divort their representa- tive of tho majority in the house from his present tendencies and direct bim in the way be should go. It is possibia that as Douglas pounty is no longer in Mr. Bryan’s district, he may have lost wterest in Omaha’s affairs and the wishes of thy demccracy there, but there are many otner mensurcs of great di- rect interest to the voters in Mr. Bryan's new district which will fail for the samé rea. sons and in tho Interest of the same general political policy of donothing. Movem General Schofleld 1s busily engaged in con- sidering the annual movement of troops. As soon as possible the nocessary orders will be issued 1n order that as wuch Ume as may bo shall be given for the preparstions for the movements, which will probably take place some time 1n May. Those troops that have beeu for some L1me on the frontier, especially 1o the far southwest, will be given a turn 1n the north and east, aud their places will be filled by otbers who have beea enjoying life at somo of the more agracable stations. An fnteresting fact in connection with the move- nts of Troops, ments this year is that General Scho- field is considering the aldvisability of ordering one of the Indian troops to sorvice at Fort Myer. This sug- gestion was originally made by Mr. Proctor When he was secretary of war, It is quite possible that the good people of Washington will, before long, bacome. familfar with the sightof a band of Indians, This dotail will not futerfere with the colored troops ro- maining at Fort Myer, as their ime there has not yet expirod.

BEE bldg et e i SAYS HE WAS SWINDLED. Dr, C. L, Hart's Grievance Against a Bi- ehlorido of Gold Injector. There is one man in Omaha who wishes that he had never seen a Keeley cure. That man is Dr. C. L. Hart, and if his wishes do not run in this dircction then the type-writ- ten petition that is buried among the court files in Frank Moores' offico carries a large sized lio upon its face. The doctor, according to his aMdavit, which has become a part of the records in the caso, wus not a patient at tho Blair cure for drunks, but instoad was a victim of mis- placed contiden The tale is hke this: Last January Dr, Hart conceived the idea that if he could make money casier than by being cailed out of bed at miduight to an- swer professional calls, he would do so. In casting about he chanced to meot Dr. Byron F. Mounroe, who represented that he was chief physician, mauaging director and a heavy stockholder in the Blair concern. He wanted to romove to tho racific slope, and for that and various other reasons would relinquish his pull on the Blair factory, if there was money enough in sight. Ho vepresented that he was arawing a salary of $0 per weok, hud an outside practice that was worth $200 per month, and was also tho owner of twenty shares in the Keeley cure, which were of the value of $i00 per share. All of this he would turu over to Hart for the sum of $4.000. Hart was not prepared to pay that sum ot ready cash, but after some ime a deal was agreed upon by which Hart was to deed 160 acres of land worth §2,200 and execato two notes of $1,000 each. This was agreeable all around, and on January 20 Hart went to Blair to take charge” of Lis sunposed gold mine. Then Monroe told him that before assum ing authority he had better stay in the insti- tution for three weeks and learu the tricks of the trade. To all of this Hart agreed, and at the ond o1 that tine whon be declared his 1n- tention of blossoming out as & full grown in- jector of bichlorido of zold he was politely but positively informed that the institute did not know him. He was told that he bad bought nothing, as Dr. Monroe was a man who had nothing to sell. Hart concludea that he had been duped. Kor a time he nursed this sorrow and said nothing, but fearing that Mouroe might dispose of the notes or sell the farm he decided to act, hence thesuit that has been filed in the court. Hart avers that when Monroe told him that be was intending to emigrato he was simply talking through s hat, as he has since re- moved trom Blair to become the chief in- jector of bichloride in the Castle cure in this oity. Some State Cases. Julius Altschuler is having a hear- ing in_crimmnal court before Judge Davis. The defendant 1is charged with fraudulently having obtained $4,088.78 worth of goods from the J. T. Robinson Notion company. After securing the goods he shipped them to Missourt Valley, la,, whero they were disposed of. In the case of the state against H. P, Muggins, the South Omaha hasher, charged with having roobed Nels Olsen of 890, the jury disagreed and was discharged. On the last ballot the jury stood eleven for con- viotion and one for acquittal. Toat one man stated that be would stay until the cockroaches carried bim through the key- hole before he would vote to convict. Tho case will again be put on trial next Friday morning, The Result of n Grade. Emma L. Eason has brought suit_against E. F. Nash, trusteo, and Judge Keysor is listening 1o’ the testimony. The plaintift was the owner of a lot on South Kignteenth sureot between Levenworth and vackson. Tho lot was some twenty-five feet above the grade of the streot, Nash gradea down his lot and as a resuit the Katon lot, or a portion of it, followed, Tho pluwntiff charges that she sustained damages to the extent of 5,000 by the lateral supports of hor lot hav- 1ng been removed without her consent. The case of Heflogberg & Clara against tho city of South Omana was decided by a jury in Judee Doane's court. The findings were for the defondant. The plaintifts owned a lot on N street and on account of the change of grade thoy brought suit for $10,000 damages. One Cuse Against Omaha, In the case of D. C. Patterson against the city of Omana, on trial before Judge Koysor, tho jury retured a verdict finding §452 for tho plaiutift, Patterson owned a loton Tenth streot. When tho viaduct was constructed ho was awarded $400 damages, but appealed, claiming that he was outitled to $5,500. City Attorney Connell regards the vordiot a great verdict for the city. Mr, Stuht Puys the Cost, In the case of Ernest Stuht against Frank Murphy, brought in the county court, Mr, Stuht will have to pay the costs. Juage Eller banded down his decision yesterday, tinding for the defendant, The suit grow out of the action brought by Stubt to restrawm the city from turning over to the Union Depot compuny the $150,000 of viaduct bonds. (o bis petition Stubt charged that Murphy and & number of other parties induced him tobring the suit,they agreeingto share Lhe ex- pense pro rata, Stuht having confidence in the gentismen advanced the mouey, after which be demanded §35 from Murphy, his share of the bill. This Murphy refused to pay, alleging that there was no contract to this effect.

Architect Boindorff was allowed to speak upon the subject of the changes. He stated that under the old plans the rotunda was to bo plain ana without any frills. The new plans contemplated marble wainscoting upon the walls of all of the floors of the rotunda. Aside from that thero would be a large amount of stucco work and a numbver of paels, producing a very beautiful effect. Mr. Edwardas of the committee on finance said that with the present outlook thero was enough mwoney in the fund to complete the hall and leave an unexpended balance of from £10,000 to £50,000. The members of the council looked at the new olans and then Prosident Davis stated that he thought that it would ve wise to change the plans. The building was a credit to the city and it should be finished to corre- spond with the exterior, Mr. Prince wanted to know how long the change in the plans would delay the comple- tion of the builaw; Contractor Coots said there would be no delay. 'I'he rooms could be used while the work was going on. The work in the ro- tunda could be completed in ninoty days. Mr, Elsasser could ses nothing wrong with the plans of the old rotunda. Of coarse, he said, the rotunda would look better if fin- ished acoording to tho new plans, but it would not look 218,000 better. He did not thinlk the taxpayers would be in favor of ex- pending the amount. When the proposition was disposod of Mr. Elsasser was the only man who voted against the change. The architect was instructed to preparo the now plans and the chairman of the com- mitteo on public property and buildings was Instracted (o iuvita bids for the work, By a resolution introduced by Mr. Elsasser Contractor Squires was instructed to at onco begin the sweeping of the streots, as pro- vided for under his contret with the oity. The clerk was instructed to notify the con- tractors that the ity hall was reaay to ro- coive the elovators, the vauit fixturos and the furniture for the offices on tbe first floor of the Luilding. ‘The Courtland Beach Tmprovemont com- puny presented a communication stating that it would bridge Cut-Off lake 1f the city would appropriate $1,500 toward tho enter- se. M. Steel introduced a resolution to ap- propriato the amount. Mr. Brunerstated that the land was in Towa and the object was to boom real estate. Taxes were hoavy enough and it was folly to expend such an amount for such & purpose. Mr. Chaffee spoke in favor of the resolution. He thought it would result im Omaba hav- ing a vleasure resort near at home. Mr. Steel favored the vesolution. If the council would expend $1,500 the improve- ment company would stand the balance of expenso of constructing 400 feot of tho bridgo. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 13 to 2. ‘I'ne ordinance granting the Thomson-Houston Electric Light company the right to jay pipes and construct con- auits in the stroets of Omaha was read twico d referred.
