Louts, Mo, July 21.—Judge Klein ot the circuit court has made a ruling which will bo aeeply discussed and will be re- gardea ‘as & victory in labor circles. Michael Fleischmaon, one of the striking planing mill men, was in Judge Klein's court 85 a defendant in & suit for a divorce by his wife. A motion for alimony was being ar- gued on the case. Flelschmann’s attorney put bis client on the stand sad showed by bim that hie was out of emplovment, baing on a strike, and without meaus, and argued that 4 motion ordering hiw to pay his wife alimony sboula not be eutered under tho cir- cumstaoces. Mrs. Fleischmarn's lawyer argued that strikes were no excuse fora man being idle, Fleischmann could ket work if he would take it, the attorney held, and should be made to Apport bis wife. Judge Klein, however, docided that being on a strike, under the circumstances, was a suficient cause, and would not make the order st tho present time and refused to erant the prayer. Judge Klein statea afier examining Fleischmann that he thought hio was Justified in not going to work, as in con- sequence of the Lyrauny of the union he had reuson 1o fear for his personal safety if ho dia so. e — LUMBER KATES TUREATENED, Cuicago, 1l 3 Serious troublo threatens the western roads in consequence of the order of the interstate commerce commission reduciog the rates on lumver from Eau Claire, Wis.,, o the Missouri river. The conferenc2s that have been held this week have not baa the effect of diminisn- ing the gravity of the situation, because the 1utereated lines were anable to agree upon a plan of concerted action. The Chicago, Mil- waukee & St. Paul road obeyed the order of the commission by reducing the lumber rate from cents {0 1514 cents per 100 pounds from Esu Claire to the Missourl river. The Chicago & Northwestern adberes Lo its de- termination to make corresponding reduc- tious from all affected points. It s this atui- tude of the Chicago & Northwestern that complicates the situation. The order of the commission was designed only to relieve the merchants of Esu Claire and was oot io- tended to carsy with it any such sweeping chauge as new seewms insvitavle.

JUDGE CROUNSE LEADS AS A CHOICE Prominent Citizens Interviewed by Our Re« porters Concerning the Most Avalle able Candidate to Lead the Party In the Coming Campnign, Judge Leo Estello~1 am for Ransom, al- though Crounse is & particularly strong man. Ransom was an anti-monopolist when it cost something to think differently from the cor- porations. Heis square on the labor ques- tion, nis position regarding prohibition is thoroughly well known. Then he is the “'daddy’ of the ‘‘valued policy” act, as it 1s known, an_act which has proven of incalcu- lable benefit to the farmers of the state, al- though he would be antagonized, no doubt, by the insurance men for championing an act which compellea insurance companies to pay the losses istead of scaling them, as they were in the habiuo! doing under the old law. Ransom is popular and could go on the stump egainst “Crazy Horse” ana beat bim out. Of conrse Crounse is a strong man, probably the strongest that has been named, but I am for Ransom because I believe he can win. Hency T. Clarke—Judge Crounse would, in my opinion, be a very available man for goveruor. 1should have boea pleased to seo Dr. Merger nominated and elected, but see- laog that he is out of it 1am for Judge Crounse. Both Mr. Baker and Mr. Ransorn are good men. Any goud republican will svit me. Major D. H. Wheeler—Porsonally 1 very much like Mr. Ransom, but when it comes to 8 question of which of the threc would poll the most votes [ have no hesitation in say- ing that Judge Crounse would be very much stronger than either of the others. Will Saunders—I would be glad to support either of them, but Mr. Baker is my prefor- ence, and I believe that he would be the strongest candiaate. James Walsh—Crounse s unquestionably the strongest man. 1 wouldn't touch Baker with a thirty-foot” pole and the Germans of the county would slin him ahive. His pro- hibition record would kill him just as sure as he was put up asa caudidate of the party. Rausom may be all right, but Crounse is the 1y man to nominate with Mercer out of the He wouid catch the German vote and monopoly record would suit the The old fight against a Douglas county man wouldu't hurt him, yet he is to all intents an Omaba man and ‘would run weli here. ‘There aro thousands of votes ou the fence that Crounse with his record could catch that the others couldn't touch. Henry Estabrook—Have said I was favorof Bakerand soam sort of pledged to bim. Think he is as strong #s any man woo could be nominated. C. H. Marple—Am in favor of Frank Ran- som. Strongest man sugeested. Could catch a good many of the yvouug democrats of this city as he'ls generally very popular and bis lemslatlve record is just the kind that is wanted. Ransom comes awful near filling the bil) all arovnd, for he was Van Wyck's lieutenant for a long time and could rub it wto Van bharder than almost auybody else. Major John B. Furay—Crounse is the strongest politically in the state of Nebraska. We can elect Juage Croutse easier than any otherman. By all means the republicans should pominate Judge Crounse, Jobn T. Clarke—Waen the county conven- tion is held you will see an instructed dele- gation for Judge Crounse. There cau be no comparison between Judge Crouuse and the other gentlemen who are mentioned as cau- aidates, He is popular, has the ability and is not tied to any factions or issues. S. A, McWhorter— 1 believe Judge Crounse is 1ne_best man yet mentioned for first place on the state ticket. There has been one objection urged against him, that is that he has been out of volitics for several years. I consider that fact as a point in his fayor. W. N. Nason—Crouuse is my choice. I think lie can be elected. Ho is a people's mau. 1 bave known him alone time and have always found him on the right side of every question affecting tho welfare of the people. He is an earnest, hardworking, painstakiug man and notbing can be truth: 1ully said uzainst bur. Jobn Rush—1 am entirely out of politics, but I confess that I still nave an interest in the welfare of the republican party and be- cause of that interest | would say thst Judgo Crounse is not ouly the strongest mau of the three geutlemen ‘that appear to be most talked of, but he is one of the strongest men in the state. 1 have great respect for Mr., Ransom 9nd I aamire his ability, but all tohose who, like myself, have lived in Ne- braska from territorial times down to the prosent aciuowledge and appreciate the ser- vico that Judge Crounse hss rendered in every vosition of honor that he has filled. Not only that, but he 1s the most exalted type ot the American citizen, free from the taint of knowrothingism and bigotry. Judge Crounse is my man J. H. Millard—1 have a shop that needs looging after ana can truthfully say am out of polities. Of the three men mentioned, however, all have elements of strength, they are all frienas of mine and I hopelama friend of theirs, A candidate is neoded this year who can go on the stump and cross swords with Van Wyck, sbould he be nominated. Ransom's position as an anti-monopolist is well kuown and his stand on the labor question would win him votes. Baker is a strong man and would command the strength in this state but for several reasons I belisve Lorenzo Counse to be the man who would enme near- est beating Van Wyck, who, as u sopbist, is unparalleled. Crounse would bo stroog among the farmers, and business democrats would flock o his support notwithsianging that it is the policy of the democratic party to throw Neoraska iuto the allian column and elect an alliunce governor uud legisla- ture. Vao Wyck’s busivess methods are in such contrast with his political meth- ods that I wonder sometimes two such opposing forces could exist in one individual. Van is & rich man and if he were 1o come in my bank and draw bis check on & Nobraska City bank for £10,000 1 would pay it instantly, without a moment’s thought. But to the world al large he poses as a tramp aud talks about the rapacity of moneyed men and corporations. To say the least itis a remarkable position for & man 1o occupy. AS 8 ¢o0d republican twill bo found with the man who is nomi- nated, L. M. Bennett—All the caudidates wen- tioned are thorooghly available, but the strongest man 1n my opinjon is Lorenzo Crounse could be D6 pretailed unon to ac- cept. He is identified with Omaha, he is a good business man, clean and irre- proachable in his private life, and & strength amoug the farmers. He would come nearest being elected of the candidates mentioned. While 1 have faith io the ability of the other gentleman, while I believe they would make a strong fight individually, Crounse is my choice, for the reason that he would atiract alarge dem- ocratio vote, men who have large inlerests at beart, and would protect. these interests by a ballot in favor of a candidate whose life was like an open book. Politics should cut no figure in this campaign, for tne man sbould be nominated who would stand the greatest show of defeating the leader of the umulllu in thbis staie, Charles H. Van Vyck Joun E. Wilbur—J am for Crounse. He is able, clean and would make a geod governor. Good politics demands his nomination.

Board of Trade Decides Not to Invest In a Frelght Hareau, The Board ot Trade held an adjourned meeting st thelr rooms last night to con- sider the question of & yearly appropriation for the organization acd maintenance of & fright bureau. In the abseuce of President Martin D. H. Wheeler was made chairman. The freight bareau matter had proved & fruitful source of contention at a previous meeting and everyone expected that tho figat would Dpe renewed as soon &S the question was betore the house. But when the meeting was called to order 1t looked as thouwh tke advocates of the bureau had left the enemy in possession of the tield W. N. Babcock, John Brady, Ed Cudahy aud others who were interested in the mat- ter were conspicuously absent, whbile the negoative contingent was out in force. Opened the Argument. Mr. J. J. O'Connor opened the ball by moving tbat the board of directors be in- structed not to make any such appropriation. He held that such action was neither advis- able nor legal and that any member might enjoin the directors from makiog the appro- priation, Walter Breen seconded ths motion and W. V. Morse rose to give a fow reasons why the freight bureau would bea benefit to the business interests of the city. He maintained wnat a bureau fn the hands ‘of a competent mauager would be able to obtain concessions in railroad rates which could not be secared in any o:her way. Other cities had shown what could be done by an institution of this kind, and Omaba would have to take similar action in order to Keep in the procession. S. P. Morse was ulso in favor of the ap- propriation. How the Roads A ersecuted. James Stephenson was dead against it. The latter said that if the newspapers would treat the railroads with justice it would not be uecessary to organize i freight bureau to got fair rates, The treatment that the rail- roads had received from Omoha had been outrageous and was not calculated to make tnem act favorably towards the city. 1f tue prosent moetiug should vote the appropria- tion an injznetion would be filed to restrain itand the courts would sustain it. The Board of Trade had bad funds enough to have paid off its incumbr woula have done so if it tent board of diractors. This statoment cause and some one remarked that Mr, Stephenson was one of the directors bimself. “Yes, but 1 am only one of them,” retorted tho speaker, “and)f I had my way things would be different.” Mr. W. V. Morse replied that those who were opposing the burcau did not realize the magnitude of the iuterests that were in- volved. Omaha had nearly 300 wholesale houses with 1,000 men on tho road, to say nothing of the immenso live stock interests of South Omaha, all of which needed a freight bureau to protect them from the at- tacks of other cities who were better organ- ized. nces long ago, and had had a compe- a little confusion Made a Sensatlonal Charge. Mr. O'Connor resumed the floor and cre- ated a sousation of his own. He said that at the previous meeting the advocates of the bureau had “atiemptea to steal’ the amount involved.from the other members after they bad lefu the room. The remark struck hard agaiust the pride of the *‘thieves” and a dozen v were rawsed in remonstrance. But O'Connor would uot be silenced und went on to state that if the geutiemen bad their way the Board of Trado would eventu- ally be in the hands of a receiver. Major Whoeler took the floor to relate a little anciont istory. He said that the freight burcau that had been orpanizea before had accomplishnied much good, and vould tave done moreif some of its mem- bers had pot. withdrawn their support just ut the moment of success. A long discussion eusued upon *he status of the question before tho house, and finally the vote was taken on the motion of Mr. O'Connor, The roll_was called and toe motion carried by 25 10 15.
