ALLEGED STATEMENTS OF THE DEFENDANT Admitted Oceasion f the Situation ~Other Ne- ald to Have is v Was In braska pralon curat News, July 1.—|Special Tele- ‘Pho cross-examination Hastivos, Nob, gram to Tur Brs. of Willlam Kerr, presideut of the Adams County pauk, was continued this morning in the ai ¢t court in the trial of ex-Treasurer C. H. Paul. The defense wished to show that the mortgago given Mr. Kerr was not intendea for indemnity for the bond N but simply as & private matter between Kerr and Paul. At the meeing in the First Na tionaul bank, when some of the bondsmen were endeavoring to ascertain the amount of the shortage from Paul’s various bai k books, he was given credit for the $10,000 loan to Kerr, and above that was ihe $12,000 de ficiency. ix-Mayor A. L. Clarke, presidant, of the pank, was calied. He de- Paul and John which t National ibea a meeting of himself, Ragan, onn ot the bondsmen, occurred January 5 ib tho private room of the Wirst National bank. Paul then stated that he had known of the shortagein the Cherry items since the middle of the provious month. He 1dentified the certificates of deposit which wers used in the paymonts of the amount agreed to batween the supervisors and bondsmen in making their final settiement Ou cross-cxamination he stated that ot about Decemoer 15, 1801, Paul came over to the bank with a statement which purported o show the balances between the various funds. ‘Lhis statoment, said to be in Deputy Fist's handwriting, greatly increased the amount of shortage which Mr. Clarke had supposed oxisted since the City National vank failod. Creatod Much Surprise. Both expressed surprise at the statement, und going over to the court house later in the day requested Mr. Iist to verify his statement. When tho statement of assets and liabilities was made in_August, about 6,000 in_notes, which Mr. Paul had turned over to- Clarke, were thrown out us worth- less.

The first half of the yoar 1502 has been a most prosperous season for the South Omaha stock market. Within the history of the | Union stock yards no period can be recalled | when the improvements made have been so extensive, the receipts so large and the | vrices paid s0 good, as has characterized the past six wonths, When it is recalled that moro than §1,000, 000 s being expended 10 improvements by the packers and the stock yards company, the fact is apparcnt that a large and suc- cessful stock market and packing center is being reared, which, ere long, will rank as secoud vlace'and will only be distanced by Chicago, and that city will find 1t_a difficult tusk 1o keep pace with South Omaha ina few vears. By reason of its excellent loca- vion and superior advantages this markot has easily won third place and will as easily gain secona piace from Kansas City During the period mentioned overything scems to havo come South Omaha's way. When at the beginning of the vear thu pack- . ers gave notice of their intention to exvend several hundred thousand dollars in inprov ing and enlarging their mammotn estublish- ments, no one scemed surprised, Later, when the Union Stock Yards company began improvements costing $200,000, w0 meot lu- creased business, it was regarded as a wural consequence. When new territory was opened up, and the stock shipped to South Omaba, it was no more than was ex- pecied. \Vhen the differeutial rate on stook from Indian Territory points was reduced 10 §1250 per car it was receivod with the fecling that justice had been done, and that tho railrouds desired to get into the South Omabia column of progressiveness and cnterprise. And every new improvement, each day’'s increase in receipts and slaughter- ings and the whole general prosperity has been calmly received and attriouted to the fact that 1t was ut the natural ucquiring of all that is necessary in the grand mareh for second place, waich South Omaba is so rapidly and gloriously nccomplishing. Thero 1 no foud sounding of trumpets, no rotechnical display of accompl 1onts, but a calm, doter: rovising effort on behalf of all to t dvantage of the op- portunity and place within a short timo the Magie City where she proporly and naturaily belongs. Tho vast improvements being mado by tho Union Stock Yards company are nado nec essary by the increaso in the receivts of stock and the outlook for increased business in tho future, The new pens now nearly completed brings the total area of tha yards up to fifty ac nd tho capacity is 10,000 cattle, 20,000 hogs, 6,500 sheep and 1,000 horses. Iorty new loading chules are being built and a new scalo house is nearly com- pleted. With this increasod capacity the yards company is prepared to properly hanale and care for vbe large receipts so confidently expected, That these extensive improvements and altertions have not been made without good reason 1s shown by & comparison of the ofti- cial recoipts from January 1 to July 1, dur- ing the years of 1500, 1561 and 1892, The - creasa in the supplies of stock of ail Kinds will bo noticed, and it is the more gratifying when it is known toat this is the only mar- ket of any consequence in the country show- ing such a satisfactory growth. The follow- ing figures are official and taken from the books of the Union Stoek Yards company and show the receipts of stock for the perioa mentioned : attlo. First six months, 180)... 215 First six months, 159110 249,55 Firstsix months, 15 it foieet Theso figurcs show Lhat the receipts of caule during the first six months of this year exceeded that during the same period Of 1801, 03,222 head, and in 1590, 50,340 hond. T'ho increase in hogs shows A gain over 1591 0f 7,105, and of 1500, 64,720 head. The in- crease 1l the receints’ of ‘shoop over 15Ul is 14,315 bead, and 1500, 14,417 head. ‘Tne in- crause is flattering and but shows the drift of the wind, which is undoubtedly sending everything South Omaha Kiinsas City’s showing is not near so flat- tering os that mado by South Omaha. The increase in the numbor of cattle received Guring toe past six months, as compared with tho same period of 1501, is 73,000 head, whilo South Omeha shows 93,000 Berore six months moro havo passed the increnso ot Kansas City will not bo so lerge, and South Omaha will orofit by it. By the reduction of the differ- entia! rate on stock from Indian Territory voints, South Omaha will receive at least 75,000 Toxas cattle that will come from ter- rifory which in the past has been closed to this market by reason_of raiiroad discrim- ination in favor of Kuansas City. Tho in- crouso in the receints of hogs during tno first lalf of the year shows gain of but 12,528 head over the same period of 1501, while South Omaha's gain is 3,705 head. The iucroase in receipts at tho yards is 1ot the only ploasant featuro of tho past six mouths. The packing houses have not boon idle, ana although for the past two months they have been runniug very slack, while tho new buildings are in course of ercction, tho in_ slauglter- iugs over six_ months of 1801, is very encoursging. During tho first six months'of 1801 tho slaughtering of cattlo reached 130,805, and for the same period of tho prexent year 219,238 head, an increaso of 77,340 head. Hogs 'siaughterod numbered in 1801 662,040 head, and in 1592 905 head, an increase of 13,503 head. Tho iucrense i sheep siaughterea during 1802 over tho preceding yenr reches about 10,000, Tho four largo packing plants aro all ey doubling their present capacity and by Octo- ver 1 tho improvements will bo completea. The puckers will then consume all desirablo stock which comes to this toarket, aud tho supply wilt have to bo considerably increased to weet the demand which the enlarged capacity of tho packing plants will make, IS0 upyrebension 1s folt as 10 the possibility of the supply of stock being short, as a good warket and active demand will bring this way ull that is required, and next year's output of the packing houses wiil be at lonst one-third larger than the present yvear, Tha excellent showing of tho first half of tho vear will bo kept up. duriug the next six months, aund the end of the year 1803 will show that South Omaha's growth has been wonaerful.

AT FREMONT'S CHAUTAUQUA Formal Opening of the Assembly Grounds Appropriately Oelebrated. WHAT THE PRESENT OCCASION PROMISES Cultured Instructors, Pleasant Surround- ingd and Conventent Location Are Some of the Attrac Dodge County Tnstitut Features of the Puevost, Neb, July 1.—[Speoial to Tie Bee,|--The Fremont Chautauqua assombly formally opened tho session of 1502 at the svacious and attractive Chantauqua park in the northern suburbs of the city tonight. The inauspicious weather kept many from atterding the opening exercises, but the poInt to & very successful session. In the absence of Judgo Jacob Faweott of | Omaha, president of the association, Rev. G. M. Browu of Omaha, geueral superintendent, made the opaning adidress, He gave o very interesting raview of the origin of the Chau- tauqua movement and the objects to bo at- tained in attending Chautauquas in gencral and this one in particular. Dean Alfred A. Wright, D.D., of Boston, one of the most widely known ana successful Chuutauqua workers in tho country, and the conductor of the Fromont assembly, was present for the opening and offerad some very appropriate remarks, He will take full charge of thoe class work during the entire session, which lasts until July 15. L. A. Torrens, the popular musical director of Omaha, has charge of the music and the musical iustruction, He was hero vesterday and was very busy getting everything in readiness for the beginuing ot the work, He has upon the rostrum an organ and a piano 10 assist the vocalists. Mr. Torrens hopes to mako this a real musical eveut for I'remont and vicinity and will probably have a chorus of 100 voices in a fow days. Ono of the Features. Prof. D. V. Sievens, superintendent of schools for Dodee county, has introduced a new and intoresting feature into tho Chau- tauqua assembly for this yoar. Ho has made arrangements 1o hold the anuual teachers’ institute during the Chautauqua session and the teachers of the county have taken hold of the new proposition with a will. They have already engaced forty small tents for their own accommodation and Prof. Stevens hus encaged five largo ones, which are al- eady up and ready for use, to bo occupied as iustruction tonts, "The work of tho iustitute has been ar- rangea so that 1t will notconflict with the Chautauqua course. All tho teachers who wish may take both the Chautauqua and the wstitute work at the same time. In this ago of rush and nurry, when even school teachers have but httle leisure time, the words of opo are doubly true, *Haif our kuow we must snatch, not take,” and this excentionally favorable opportunity to snatch some valuablo information has been eagerly embraced by tho Dodge county teachers. The Assembly park b proved since last ycar tiful spot and vear by attractive. ern ew besn vastly im- It is indeed & beau- year it will grow more “Tne park is located 1 the north- suburbs of tho city on the line of the Fremont, Klihorn & Missourt Valley railro. Tho grounds are reached by street cars or by tho regular railrond trains as the visitors profer. The park contalns seventy-two acres of level meadow land through which a parrow and devious stream winds. Larpo, stately trees lift their graceful branches into the sunlight all along the crooked tortuous stream and soveral clumps ana long double rows of dense foliago are found at various points throughout the pari. There is amplo shade for hundreds of tents and abundant facilities in the groves for tho various departments of instruction -» establish recitation and lecture tents., Ve Tents. These 1nstruction tents havea wonder- fully inviting appearance. They ave sup- plied with good seats or if the studeats wish thoy can carry thelr camp chairs as they meunder avout from ono grove to anothor. Bryant said that *“The groves were God's first temples,” aud theso dohghtful retreats on tho k'remont Chautauqua erounds no doubt bear & striking resomblance to the sylvan shades the poet had in his mind’s oye when he made the above remark, While the park cannot bo called pictur- esque, it must be called beautifutand very con- veunient, for of w! use are rugged hills ex- cepting 1o look at and wear one out in climb- ing? Thon in addition to an abundance of stade and wide stgetching lawns tho park bas that which is cver weloome, plenty of running water for voating and bathing. By throwiug a dam across the little stream near the point where it loavos the park, the man- agement has socured an abundance of water, For nearly a milo above the dam the stream is navigable for rowboats, for the water is nearly teu foet in depth upon an average, ‘There are numerous small islands, straits, promontories and lakes along the ‘winding channol of tho stream. At the Plunge Bath, Not content to provide only boating for the visitors, the association has builta large natatorium, 40 feet wide ana 150 feet in tength, which is supplied with running water from the “Chautauqua river,” as tho stroum has been named. Theso substantial aod commendable improvements have encouraged 8 numbor of people to build cottages upon the grounas. Several prominent citizens of Fremont, Blair, Omaha_and other places have built cottages here, They will come hero to rest and screato, anud in the words of the immortal bard of Avon, “Exempt from public haunts find toneues in trecs, books I running vrooks, sermons in stones and good in every- thing.” The Grand Army of the Republic has erected a very handsome building, und from its tlagstat? the stars and scripes’ gracolally wave ‘'no amphitheater in which all the general assambiies ave held is beautifully located back from the stveam about fifty yards on a slight elevation, commanding a good view of the grounds and the country for miles around. It1s built after the manner of the usual Chautauqua amphitheater, in a half circlo, and will seat fully 5,000 peoplo, Toward the north side of the grounds at & reasonable distance from the most desirablo tenting grounds, stands tho notel buliding. It s large and permaneutly built, capabie of ac. commodating quite a multitude with sub- stautial refreshments, Good meals at reas- onable rates will be furnisied here through out tho session. - Down uear the lake where the boats lie at their moorings there is o neat and inviting lunch house whore light moais aud summer beverages will be supplied those who bunger and thirst. Accommodations for All, The assoclation has already pitched and has ready for occupancy about 120 tents that may bo rented by visitors for the session or by the week or day. “There uppesrs to be nothing lacking in the arrangements, aad those who visit the Fre- mout Chautauqua this year will certainly find the facilitiés for enjoyment muoh more inviting than ever befors ana those who make half an effort canuot fail to have o picasant and profitable sojourn i Chautauqua parls., Facilitie Comfortuble for Instruction, 'he facilities for instruction In the usual Chautauqua studies are exceptionally good aud in uddition to this the wanagement has seoured tho sorvices of | Torrens, Smith, Marshall and others to t the musical irstruction and Mrs Mumaugh and Miss Nina Lumbard to give lessous 1 oll, water colors ang ching panungs.

The morning session was largely devoted to the organization of classes and gettiog the machinery of the assembly iuto fairly working order.
