SOME STREETS THAT WILL BE TAKEN Description of the Thoroughfares Over Which Right of Way Is Asked— Opinions of the Councilin Another Meeting Prowmised The city council and several newspaper men met at the city building yesterday after- noon and took u drive in carriages to the part of the city where the Union Land and Im- provement company proposes to lay is new railway track. John W. Paul, one of the members of the company, furaished the car- riages, and accompaniea the party to point out the proposed routs, in order that the council might act intellizently when it comes to consider the ordinance for the right of way which Is now pending. From Thirteenth avenue, whero the new road is to connect with tho Wabash road, to Eighth, where it will meet tho Union Pacific, Mr. Paui asks fora right of way over most of the streets and alloys in Fleming & Davis’ addition, but be does mot propose to lay tracks on the streots excopting so much as may be necessary to connect with the other roads. In that distance—five blocks—he will obtain counections with the Union Pacific, Northwestern, Rock Island, Burlington, Milwaukee and Wabash, At Iignth avonue the lino will strike Eighteenth street, and according to present plans wilt occupy that stroet as fav north us avenue G. Tho property owners on this streot raisod a howl a fow wesks ago when they learned that the granting of the right of way on the streot was talked of, and the council took particular pains to notice how many houses thero were. So far as could be seen, there were not more than half a dozen houses. A number of the people who own property on tho street buve agreed not to raise any further objection. The council viewed all the land as north as_tho river. ‘Ihey then re- turned to the city building, but it was too iate to take any action. The mattor is still in the hands of the judiciary committee, who will draw upa new ordiaanco containing some provisions which the aldermen haye proposed, and the amended ordinance will cowe up for consideration at tho noxt meet- ing, which will probably be September 5. Another meeting of the committee of the whale will be held next Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock, when the council will examine a number of things which it was the intention to look after yesterday, but which had to be skipped on account of lack of time, Saguaat Come to Ligl It is usually the case with every mer- chant when taking inventory quantities of odds and ends come to light.

How Mrs. Larsen Was Killed, The coroner’s jury held an inquest vester- day morning at the undertaking rooms of W. C. Estep to investigate the causes of the death of Mrs, Carrie Larsen, who was killed by the “lrish Maii” train Thursday morning betweon the bridge and the transfer. The facts as brought out in the testimony were l‘mnnll;‘ the samo as those that appeared in Tuk B The story of John Spencer, the porter on the train, was of peculiur interest, he being the one who so bravely tried to rescue the womau from approacting death. When the train was about 600 yards from the cast end of the bridge Spencer looked forward und saw the woman picking up cosl on the other track, and saw ut the same time another train coming from the opposite direction on the tracg where Mrs, Livsen was stopping. Mrs. Lavsen noticed it also a woment later, aud stepped onto the track directly in front of the “Irish Mail” with her back to the engme, Sponcer immediately threw on tho air brakes, but scemg that it would be im- possible to stop the train in time to save the woman's lite Lo leanad over the platform and caught bold of ber dress as the train reached her.

'T'be last bulletin showed him to be at San Juan de Los Moros, and the govern- ment soldiers wero pressing him closely. Many of his followers wers deserting him and his army was made up of cowboys prin- cipally, As reported 1n tho telegraphic aispatches, a severe enzagement took place just beforo the steamship sailed, at Ciudad, eBolivia, detauls of which are now at hand. ' The bat- tle occurred outside of the town when Gen- cral Caieras caused a charge to be made on the enemy. Tue revolutionists stood thelr ground firmly and suffered considerable loss, They next met the government troops with machettes and_fought with great fury. “Che soldiers of Caieras were repulsad on this charge and fell back, carrying their wounded. After short rest the troops were reformed And aaain attacked thereoels, Tho fighting became general, Caieras rode at the nead of his men and urged them on. He was cut off from the main body of his little army and with half a dozen of his men found himsolf surrounded by a large numoer of the enemy all eeger to kill him. He fought for bis life as stubbornly as he could, but he was tinally kuocked off his horse and killed. The government forces rallied and forced the rebels to retreat. The consul’s advices from the government at Caracas contain the news of an important and bloody fight thal took piace August 0, near Villa de Cura, in which 1,500 men_are smd to tave been killed or wounded. Gen- eral Vallonilla bad concentrated 2,000 men some distance from him. Generai Mendosa is coasidered tne bravest and ablest of Ven- ezuelan generals. He planned to leac the revolutionists under Vatlonilla into un am- bush and destroy them. He sent a forco of 800 men from his army under command of General Zolaoga to march where the rebels were. His instructions to Zolsoga were o mpproach the enemy and apparently offer them battle, When they should commence to fight, the government troops were uot to fire in return, but were to slowly retreat and draw the enemy on until the main army appeured, whoen a generai ou- slaught would ve made and the revolutionary army destroyed. Zolnoga drew near to tho foree of the rovolutionists and was attacked. ‘Their fire told with great effect and the ov. ernment general fell dead. Without aleader his troops forgot their instructious und, en- raged at the deuth of thoir commander, they returned the fire of tho enemy and a hot battle began that raged with g "Thie force of 800 wen found them posed to 2,000 but fought ou. The revolution- ists had several field pieces and these raked the men. The battle continued for several hours with varying success. The modern rifles and vetter training of the government forces produced great loss on the other side. The revolutionists threw their forces on either side and almost surrounded the 800 men, The latter saw after a time that the battle was zoing against them and tried to cut their way out. Both sides seemed to have becomo crazed and fought furiously. "The deaa lay on all siges and the woundea were trampled on &8 the scene of confict changed from placo t place. Late in the afterncon the remnant of the government force succecded in gotting through the lines of the enemy. They beat & hasty retreat to a distance, when rhey gota little nceaed rest. The revolutionists were 00 Weak Lo pursue them. It was then discovered that 500 of the 800 men bad been killed, and the government estimated the revolutionists had lost 1,000, NT THE MINERS TO JAIL. Preliminary Examination of the Tennessce Rioters Begun at Clinton, NasnviLe, Tenn., Aug. 26.—The trials of the rioting miners came to a sudden termina. tion today at Clinton. The case of the state against D. B. Monrce wus rosumed and several witnesses examined, the burden of their testimony being that Monros was the ‘“chief:” that they also regarded him and his actions and ordevs indicated that he felt that he wus in control. His testimony while on the stand sceming to sustain his story that he only joined the miuers to pro- teet property was not sustained. The chicf contention was whethor he would be ud- mitted to bail, and the magistrate bound him over for trial'in the criminal court without bail He was seut to jail in Knoxville for sufe keep'ng. After this decision by the trial magistrate the others under urrest lost huart and sub- witted their cases without triul. They were bouud over and bonds in some cases wero given, in @ majority of cases wero not, and these miners will have to go to juil to Await the scssion of the trial court = As fost as miners under arrest submit and give bond they will bo released. Bud Lindsay suomitted and was bound over and gave boud. He was then placed on a train and started for Knoxville. While en route some of the soldiers took him from the train, beld him prisoner with threats of lynching. General Carnes, however, sent a guard o his relief and tno iatest special to the American savs he will be protected. The miners in and around Coal Creek still remain quiet. _— Westorn Pensions.

The diserimination in freight rates against the Missourl river packing centers may be brought to the attention of the Interstate Commerce commisgion, although no definite plan of action has yet byen azreed upon, ana in fact no prelimianries have been arranged. The fact 18 realized, however, that there must be cor.certed wetion upon the part of the packers if the growth of tho packing in- dustry in this region is to be maintained aud its prosperity not aiminished. Tho South Omaha packers are alive to tho fact that there is a common iuterestin tho struggle, and the Missouri river packers should realize it. The freight rate discrim. ination Is as much agaiust one point as an- other, and has the appearance of being es- peciaily engendered in the interest of Chi- cago, wnd an attompt to cripple tha packing industries on the Missouri river. The Chi cago people realize that tho live stock in- dustry is traveling west and are making every effort in wheir power to prevent it. The powerful influence they have brought to bear had its effect with the railways and trafie agsociations, and all nttempts 1o secure a re- adjustment of freicht rates upon an equita- bio basis have been denied upon some very Himsy pretexts. In the future, however, if the plans do not miscarry, the Missouri river ioterests will be thoroughly organized and bring such a force to bear that the trafiic as- sociations will come to the realization of the fact that the Chicago industries are not the only ones in the country that must receive ideration. Sioee the refusal a fow weeks ago by the Waestern Traflic association to raise the rate on packing house products to the Pacific const, there has beon soma correspondenco between the Omana, Kansas City and Sioux City packe looking to an organization of interests, anathe formulation of some plan to secure roliel from the dis- crimimation. Several plans have boen suj gosted, but none have been nereed upon. A proposition to lay the matter before tho inter state commerce commission has been sug- gested, but has gone no farther. An _organ- ization of the packers of Omaha, Kansas City and Sioux City will probably be effected at an early day, and in that manner it is hoped to bring about @ readjustment of freight vates, The freight rate discrimination against the Missouri river packing conters have been re- ferred to in T Bee, The Chicago packers are the profiters and are afforded all the pro- tection it is possible for the trafiic associa- tion to give. A car of packing house product can be shipped from Chicago to_the Pacitic coast at the samo rate as from Omaha, not- withstanding tho difference in distanco of 500 miles. But when it comes %o shipping to the eastern seaboards, the Omaha packers are compollad to pay a differential rate, and Chicago reaps another benefit us the result of the discrimination. An example is shown by the rate to Richmond, The rate on pro- ducts to that city from Chicago is 25 cents, aua from the Missouri river 45cents. This example 1s not tne only discrimination, how- ever. The same is to besaid of tho rate from both poiuts to Now York, Boston and, in fact, to all the eastern cities in which the Missouri river packers find an extensive markevand a great demand for their products. The raising of the rato on fresh meat products from the Missouri river packing centers to Minneapolis was uncailea for and a clear injustice. Tho commissioners of tho Western Trafiic assodiation plainly showed their desire for aiscrimination when they did so. Minneapolis is not a packiug center and unever will bg, and the plea of giving them protection was a very flimsy excuse for tho action the commissioners took. Thorough orgauization and a determined fight upon the part of the Missouri river puckers wiil eventually securé an equitable tariff sheey andt place them in the matter upon a more equal footing with their eastern competitors. The Omaha packers belioye such an organization will be perfected and a great deal of good accomplished. No Republicuns Were Present, A eovening calamity sheot makes the startling announcement that ‘a mbeting was called in the Third ward Thursday ovening for the purpose of organizing a Harrison club and that a change of heart was experi- enced by thoso present and a_people's party club formed instead. ~ Such a state- ment is msleading and carries an im- pression that is false.

Postponed the Meeting. The rally which was to have been given this evening at Pivonka’s hall by the Young Men’s Republican club has been postponed until Thursday evemng at Knights of Pytuias hall. “This postponement 1s made nécessary because of a misunderstanding in recard (o securing Pivonkw's hall, 1t having been engaged for another purpose without the knowledge of the committec.
