Harrison, manager and pro- prietor of the “Littlo Tippet” company, which opens up at the Farnam Street theater Sunday night, drobped in on the sporting editor yesterday afternoon for a little social chat. Colonel Harrison, it will bo remembered, was associated with John L. Sullivan in the “FHonest Hearts and Willing Hands” theatrical venture and is about as familiar with the big fellow’s idiosyncrasies and peculiarities as the next ove, and as a matter of course the conversation wasn't long in turning on this subject. “How about Sully, anywi with Corbett next September?’: put to Mr. Harrison. “Why, he'll whin him sure, that's all thereis t0 it, and do 1t too with the first good punch he gets in. 1 think Suilivan 1s an in- grate ana totally without any of the refining sontiments of a gentleman. Stul he is tho greatest pugilist on top of tho earth, and the mau don' live, in my estimation, who can conquer him.” “Will you go to the fight?’ “I want tu vers much, and 1f I can possi- bly shape my business affairs to harmonize with the trip, I certainly shall. By the way, you are to have contest hero Saturday night next that will bo worth any man’s money, aud it catenos mo sure. Thoy tell me in Chicago that this Ryan is a crackor- jack sure.”! “On, by the way, Mr. Harrison, the Inter Ocean says you say Corbott will punch Sully full of holes in a round or two. Have you changed your opinion since arriving in Omuha?” *That's rot. I believe honestly und firmly frnt sadiok I draawe andide 0. wovdo.

TWO ANARCHISTS IMPLICATED Men Arrestsd Who Are Believed to Have Beon Bergman's Acoessories. THEY DENY ALL KNOWLEDGE OF THE PLOT Pollcemen Discover a Minial the Home ot One of the Ace Was Seen With Erick’s Would-Be Slayer, Pirrsnune, Pa., July 27.—The arrests of F\. Mollick at Long Branch and H. Bauer in Aliegheny will, it is .believed by the police, greatly aid them in cloaring the mystery that surrounds the would-be assassin and anarch- ist, Bergman, Mollick 18 the man who sent Berginan the money from Long Branch last week and Bauer is the recognized leader of the anarchists in this section. Ho succeeded Herr Frick upon the death of the latter two years ago, as the agent for the distribution of anarchistic literature, and the police have been watching him for some months. He was arrested at his bome, 76 Spring Garden avenue, Allegheny, by Detectives Shore and MeLeigh and is now in the central station. Bauer showed no surprise when arrested and took the matter coolly. He admitted he was the agent here for the distribution of anarchistic documents and that he had sent tho circulars to Homestead which were or- dered confiscated by General Snowden. He denies all knowledge of the attempt on Mr. Frick’s life and says that he had never met or heard of Borgmun till last week, when he met him at Kuold’s house, Thero were two meetings, he suid, each one by acoident, and Bergman tola him he was here o got work. Bauer told bim it wus a bad time to hunt worl on accouut of the Homestead troublo. He sa1d he had not seen Bergman since last Thursany. When searched at the station house a gold watch and chain, two kevsanda subscription book for money received for the anarchist group of which Bauer is the leader were found on his person. Unenrthed an Arsenal, At Bauer’s house, however, the police un- earthed a smail sizod arsenal. They found a brecch-loading rifie, an Ainerican bulldog revolver and a large quantity of cartridges running in size from 22 to 44 caliber A mysterious looking red object was also found in his room. It was the size of a large marble and had a striug attached at one enc. The police_believe it is some sort of an ex- plosive. Various incendiary papers were also found, together with a book on anarchy, rocoipts, ete. It is believed that the accused destroved all papers tending to criminate Lim when Frick was shot. Buuer 1s about 30 years of ago, very in- telligent Jooking, and much cleaner in ap- poarance than the average anarohist: The Allegheny vpolice say he 1s one of the most violent 1 this section. They believe they have a gooa cuse against him. On last Suturday morning Baueris said to have been seen loitering in the vicinity of the Duquesne club on Sixth avenue, whero Mr. Frick took nis meals, Chiof Murphy says that when Bergman entered the Chronic Telegraph building last Saturday ho was not alone. There was another man with him anu when Bergmun started up the stairs the ranger passed a package to bim. This i o is said to have contained either the rovolver with which Mr. Frick was shot or the dynamite cartridge with which Bergman attemoted to blow his own head off. Bauer is suspected of being thé map who handed the packagoe to Bergman. Several persons aw the ncidentv and the description of Bergmaw’s companion they furnish fits Bauer to perfection. Gone Atter Mollick, Upon receipt of the news that Mollick had been captured, Chief Brown instructed Su- perintendent O'Mara to go to Long Branch and await papers which were forwarded im- mediately. Inspector McKelvie made the Baa-a~verudnArvony o1 1Y, “togecuel with the warrant for Mollick’s arrest, was sent on to Superintendent O’Mara at Long Branch. The information is in the usual form and charges that F'. Mollick of Long Brancn was aa accossory before aud after the fact in the felonious shooting und stabbing of H. C. Frick. Ho will be brought here for trial. Casper Krnold, the anarchist arrested last night, is still at the Central station, No in- formation has yet been made against him und he will bo detuined in the s:ation till his record and connection with Bergman are more fully investigated. Borgman indicated his intention to make & statement to the Associated Press of his reasons for shooting H. C. Frick and his story of the attempted assassination as soon as bie should be settled in the jail. An at- tempt was made to see the young man, but Warden McAieese declined for the present-to permit anybody to have access to the pris- oner whether with bis consent ormnot. It was tinally agreed, however, that Bergman should be” asked for a statement for tho pross if he chose to make one, and that after this had been reviewed by the authorities it should be given out. TRIED TO BLOW UP THE MILLS, Auarchists Turn on the Gas, but Thelr Scheme is Discovered, Purrrssura, Pa., July 27.—It is just learned that an attempt was made to blow up Car- negie's Union mills in this city. During the absence of the engineer some one turned on the unlighted gas in the furnaces. The dis- covery of tho fact was made in time to pre- ventan explosion. One hundred and fifty men were in the department at the time and many lives would have been lost. Bauer says there are 500 anarchists in Pittsburg aud 1,000 in western Pennsylvania. The polico are keeping u strict lookout for anarchists. Inspector McKelvey says Borg- man is only the Lool of conspirators, The an- archists were getting ready to carry ou, a gi- gantic scheme. An avtemptwould have been made ou the lives of soveral prominent eiti- zens. 'This afiernoon two anarchists, Charles Finsterand August Tirnohk of Allegheny, called at tho station to sec Bauer.

An O1d-Timer Shkesn Plain Statement of ¥acts Coflerntg the Charges. Tna recent ifue I the Omaha World- Herald appoarel an irticle the intention of wiiich was to mu*ma character of Hon. Thomas Carter, ghaiman of the republican national commit t recounted business transactions in“SBur county moro than twelve vears a jwhich Mr. Carter was said to have bee thd srincipal. In yester- day’s issue of the A id-Herald appeared a roprint dispatch urler Buriineton date, taken from the Chiago Herald, in whioh the statement was nade that Mr. Cartor was simply in ths omyoy of one R. K. Root, who was ‘tha princiial in the Burt county transuctions alleged ty the World-Herald to bo fraudulent. A citizen of Omaha,who resided in Burt county twelve vews ago and has full knowiedge of the sibject, requests Tiik Bek to publish the fillowing staiement of facts : “The World-Heralda few days ago prop- ated one of its rarvelous tales about ‘Footprints of Time' w in Burt county, and very feobly attemnts o connect the chair- man of the national republican committee, Hon. Thomas Carter, with the same. Tho World-Herald footpriits give such evidenco of both wob—aua spliy—footedness that it is hardly worth whili to notico the track, but as @ few resideits of Nebraska may want to know the fack, they are hore given from most reliable sotrces. As to Mr. Car- tor, ho is astute enoug to know whether he needs any defense or rot, and 1o doubt will act accordingly: then is no defense needed here, nor will any be tnade, as to his part i the transaction, *I'he simple, plain ficts are that a publish- ing house in Burlingvn, Ia., among other publicatious got out’ | condensed historical compendium called $'ootprints of Time.’ A Mr. R. B. Root wai the head and front of the offending firm. Among other young men emploved to solicit forthis and other works was Mr. Thomas Carbr. He proved him- self canable, energetic and ratiable, and soon became a valuablo min in that business, as he has in every other valk of life that he has attempted. In the tensactions in or about Tekamah, Burt county,: whatever may de- velop to have been Mu Root's part therein, Mr. Cartor was simply an agent, an employe, and there is not a santilla of 'evidence to show that he ever got a part of this land, or received any bencfiy whatever therefrom, excopt his légitimatecommission as a book agont, and in that mpaeity ho was polito, covdial and weil iked' in Burt county, and has many friends there, who to this day speak weil of him. 5 “In time Koot concoived the of selling territory to agents who desiced & special and separate feld, s has been done befbre and since in that business. What indugements ho held forth, let those who bit now proclaim, but the facts arg that the lands and- property so acquired were not at that time very valuable, and were heavily mortgagéd, so that the parties were i many cases glad to get rid of it, and accept the money thay Root offered in addi- tion to taking thdm to their new fields of labor or starting them in this now business. That they were fools goes without saying, in supposing that atemmture life, aftor being enpzaged always iridfier pursuits, they could at once turn into ? Ible and money-making book agents, a busfuses that very few ever succeed in permangntly. In time, too. Root got, or bad o takey the land, and a madder set of ln.uvnluuluann the ‘Burt county Footprints men,’ 88 /they came to be cailed, was seidom sean. & & “The craze was ofie of those anomalous freaks of human nature sometimes seen, and may be ciassed (on a small scale) with the tulip mania or thefwild lot speculation of 1856 and 1857, but_that Tom Carter was the particular individual to blame for it was never kuown until a tot of disgruntled demo- crats thought they might make a mare's nest in the footprints of years ago. “Carter, like many & poor younw man, ap- plied the money he “roceived from RRoot as wages in aiaing him fin studying law, and becoming thoroughly#dissatistiea with' Mr. Root's way of doin iness left him, bag 908 NURAITEL HH YD “Hetted his fortunesi‘as. ha*had “tald fxiends in Ne- braska he intended to do at thotime.

Trado good land for a right to sell u one-horso book; any baby ought to know better.’ I might say that, if Carter did tms, and wronged these men according to the World- Herald story, it was as 8 _democrat, whilo ho Was @ demoorat, as any other aemocrat, and as soon as he lert Root he reformed, went to Montana as a republican und made a reputa- tion there, and nationally, of which no man neea be ashamed. But 1 happen to know that he left Root because he felt he was using wrong business methods—that he left Nebraska poor and went to Montana, after passing at the bar, just as he had intended long before. “Suppose the story to be true, what shail we say of these men ai Tekamah, the authors of this story, who bought these notes at ‘30 cents on ‘the dollar' of Root, exacted tho utmost of these poor farmers, whom they suy Root (or Carter) cheated to the last penuy. taking their cows and truck or reloaning the money at 2 and 3 per cent, and thus battened and fattened on their poor and unfortunate neighbors and eventually reaped all the benefit of the ‘swindle’ if swindlo there was! Root was rumed by it.

JVLY 28, IS WILL COST CANADA NILLIONS Effoct of the Rotaliatory Moasure as Passsd by Congress. VESSELS WILL BE FORCED TO TIE UP Owners Practionily Driven Out of the Trade il the Canadian Canal Can Be Gompleted, Which Will Be More Than a Year, Tonoxto, Ont.,~ July 0 rotaliatory obul passod by the United States congress has aroused grave apprehonsion among Can- adiun vessel owners. Until the toil has boen actually annvuncea and the rogulations have boen in operation it will be impossible to say definitely what the effact will be, but there isuo doubt that in these days of close com- petition even a slight additional burden wiil bandicap the Canadian vessel owner, and that anything like the full toll charge by tho Sault Ste. Marie will practically drive him out of the trade. Tho steamer Resedale, owned by Hagarty & Co., and costing in the neighborhooa of $100,000, is too long to bo brought down through the St. Lawrence canals and will have to tie up. The Algernon Quin, owned by Thomas Marks of Port Arthur, and costing about the same, will be ia a similar predicament, The imposition of the toll would also probably lead to litiga- tion, because most of the charters have al- ready been made undor the impression that the tolls would remain the same as before, Thesa are only a fow of the valuable vessols which would practically be compolled to tie up. The aggrogate loss to Cauadian vessol owners, if tho full toll be imposed, would un- doubtedly be up in the millions. It is understood that the contractors of the Canadian canal have proposed to complete 1t for trafiic within & year on the payment of $250,000 extra, If this esuld be accomplished Canadian vossel owners would not suffer more than & year of enforced idleness, but oven at its bost the retaliatory bill is a very serious matter for them. W. W. Ogilvie, the biz manufacturer, when spoken to said the operation of the bill would not seriously affoct the trade of Mon- troal or indeed that of the Dominion. ‘‘Amorican vessels can now go and dischargo at Kingston and get. their rebato the samo as Canadian vossels, but if we are to allow them to go und discharge in Ogaensbure it will virtaaily hand over the St. Lawrence river carrying trado to the Americans, thus throw- ing out of employment the large number of Canadians who are engaged in this trade and who live on the banks of the St. Lawrence between Montreal and Kingston. The samio people could not wovk on American barges without living in the United States avd bo- coming American citizons, so vigidly does the United States differentiate against Canadian labor. Although all our canals and rivers are open to Americans, they still keep the Whitehall and Erie canals and the Hudson river closod against us. Our barges have to tranship at Whitenall, while theirs load any- e in Canada and go through to New York Still they say what tuey do not dis- inate against u: “Taken all toge tinued, “if the Can; DAy 1o attention to wrade of Montreal is st if we wiil only use tho Canadians it will continue to increase.’” John Torrance of the Dominion Steamship line suys thatocean and inland carriers would have to bear tho burden. He did not care a jot for the Americaus shutting out the White- hall and Erie canals. » Mr. Ogilvie con ans are wiso they will the Americans. ‘I'ne adily increasing, and ural enerzy of the AMUSKMENTS NECENCY Is a jewel!
