ASCAUGHT HEAVILY “LONG” Bx-Seorotary Foster's Pailure Oaused Little L Rurprise in Washington. WAS KNOWN TO BE MUCH EMBARRASSED Much Sympathy Expressed in OMoial Circles ~Nntional Banks in the Vicinity Not Likely to e Distarbed by the Collapse. 513 FountrexTn STREET, Wasmrxaros, D. C., May 26, The announcement of the failure of ex- etary Foster's banking company in Fostoria, O., today caused a great deal of lcommotion in the Treasury department and from Secretary Carlisle down to the mes- ponger at the door every one exprossed incoro regrot at the news, yet among those pwho knew Mr. Foster best the news created 0 surprise. It has been known ever since ‘the recent flurry in New York that he had *‘spread out” over a great deal of financial territory. It was understood that he was caught heavily “long” on several of the in- dustrinl stocks and when the slump came he [was unable to realize ready money enough to Imeot his obligations. Mr. Foster 18 also said to have been heav- fily interested in a large glass manufactory 4 h vecently sustained heavy losses. He h uite a large amount of real esiate scat- ered through Ohio and is heavily interested in a great number of manufacturing and mercantile concerns, all of which have suf- fered through the recent financial strin- fgoncy. 1tis believed here that his failure is due o these causes, At first it was feared that the failure ight have a bad effect upon national banks jin central Ohio, but examination of the cur- rent report from the banks shows a very state of affairs. Fostoria's only national bank had on hand the 4th inst. 35 per cent of its capital stock, while tho legal require- ment is only 15 per cent reserve. Appolnted Several Domocrats.

The city council met yesterday as board of equalization. The one proposed assessment that at tracted most attention was for the opening and extending of Twenty-ninth avenue, from Farnam to Half Howard street. The proposition beforethe council was to levy a special assessment to cover the cost of opening the avenue from Farnam to Half Howard. It had been deemed that by the opening of that thoroughfare the property south of Howard to Hickory has been bene- fited, and the proposed plan of ussessment is as follows: To cover the cost amounting to the sum of #30,164.27, which suw It Is proposed to assess on the lots and real estate on both sides of Twenty-ninth avenue from Farnam street to Hickory, pro rata per foot frontage, as fol- Farnam to Half Howard, 87 por foot. .36,008.40 Half Howard to Juckson, $6 per foot. 7,128.00 Jackson to Leave 5 per foot. 5,040.00 Loavenworth to Mason, $3.60 por foot. 8,999.52 Mason to Pacific, $2.60' per foot. ... 8,432.00 Pacific to Poppleton avenue, $1.50 per stie’ to Woolworth ave- t $0,4982 per foot .

The Park avenue property represented by Attorney W. E. Simeral, who presented their side of the case to the council. Several of the property owners talked to the board, among them Howard B. Smith, Dr. Moore, C. I. Squires and others. They protested and insisted that the pro- posed assessment should not be made. After listening to all the protests the council decided to reduce the special assess- ment 40 per centin each case. This will bring the assessment on the whole down to about $18,000 to be met by them, and the city at large will make up the balance of the 830,000, The ouly thing the city will have to show for the share of the assess- ment it has assumed 1s the land acquired by reason of the vacation of Twenty-ninth street, The proposed plans of assessment for ex- tending Twenty-second street and widening Nineteentn street were rejected, and new plans ordered prepared. The other proposed plans were adopted, no protests being filed. Three of for a Dollar, A. Traynor, the general baggage agent of the Union Pacific, has filed a protest against a special assessment levied against his prop- erty on Tenth street, between Jackson and Howard, with the city treasurer. The amount involved is but 83 cents, and is for removing snow from the sidewalk in front of the premises last winter. Mr. Tray- nor says that no snow was removed from his sidewalk and that he never will pay the as- sessment, He launches into a general roast of those responsible and refers to the side- walk inspector as ‘‘the eagle-eyed” inspector, In one instance he knows of a dilapidated old wooden sidewaik in front of a rich man's property, who is a nonresident, that is per- mitted to remain unmolested, and says that if it was the property of a poor man a stone walk would have been ordered put there long ago. o The protest was referred to the Board of Public Works. — e BODY BLOW T0 THE TRUSTS. Deuber Watch Case Company Wins Its Case Agnlnst the Combine, New York, May 26.—Under a decision ren- dered here, business men who refuse to enter trusts and combinations are entitled to relief when these trusts try to force them to the wall. This decision was rendered in the suit of the Deuber Watch Case company, which sued the E. Howard Watch and Clock Manufacturing company for $500,000 damages, charging that the defendant, failing sto induce the plaintit to enter a combination, set about deliber- ately to run the plaintiff's business by intim- idating dealers who wanted to buy Deuber cases. The court held that a good cause of action was established ; that it may be right to fix prices and crush out opposition in a le- gitimate business war, but to create a mo- nopoly and ruin all who refuse to partici- pate in such unlaiviul enterprises is injurious to trade and commerce and therefore illegal.

Duryea lec- ture on “The Brain” The doc- tor exhaustively reviowed the sub- ject and interspersed nis remarks with llustrations of instinct, intelligence and in- duction stent in the human brain and even the animal brain. He said that people who lived in a northern climate had heu\"er brains than residents of a tropical climate and cited statistics to prove his assertion. Reference was also made to the fact that the weight of the brain did not always de- wote superiority of mental depth, as the brain of an insane man who died in a Penn- sylvania asylum weighed sixty-three ounces, which was nnun\nl.ifi heavy. The brain of a whale or an elephant was large and heavy, but a dog or an ant. with much smaller brain, had more intelligence than either of them. The lecturer also told o number of aneedotes that illustrated the sagacity of birds and animals. In readia list of the weights of braiusof the distin- ?ulahul dead, he referred to the fact that fen Butler’s brain exceeded Daniel Webster's in weight.

JURORS JUMPED ON BY JUDGE KEYSOR Suitor Seeks Twenty-five Thousand of Swift & Co’s Oapital-Banquo After the Boyd Banqoet—District and Crim- mal Court for & Day, During the fall of 1802, George H. Hames of this city gave a mortgage on a lot in Summit addition, in order that he migh* “ecure the payment of some money that ae had borrowed of the Citizens bank of Council Bluffs. He failed to pay his interest, foreclosure proceedings wore instituted and 8 judgment obtained. Shortly after this the order of sale was mado and the notice was bublished in the American of this city. The sale day rolled around and cthe property was bid off and bought in by the bank. ’i‘hurl- day, by his attorneys, Mr. Hames appearod before .ludfa Walton, where they showed that the publication had not been made in a newspaper of general circulation, at the sume time asking that all of the proceedings be set aside for the reason that the notice required by law had not been given, In passing upon the question, Judge Wal- ton said the court finds that no other service upon the defendant was had in this case than by publication in the Ameri- can, and it is thereforo considered that the judgment heretofore ren- dered in this action be, and the same is hereby set aside, and he be permitted to plead to the petition.” Lawsuit Over a Wager. A peculiar caso is occupying the attention of Judge Hopewell and a jury, and it comes from South Omaha. OnJune 20, 1801, James McMillan bet Thomas O'Neil $100 that he could buy a certain lot for a certain price. O'Neil put up 3100 of his wealth, both men depositing the money in the hands of George Parks, who was agreed upon as the stakeholder. McMillan did not buy the lot at the price agreed upon, but he aflirmed that there was some fine work which provented him from making the deal. Then the two men had a row. O'Neil went around and_drew out the money which he had left in Parks’' hands, and brought suit to collect the $100, which he claimed McMillan had forfeited. Ghost of the Boyd Banquet, That case of H. A. Eastman against R. W. Patrick, George A. Pritchett, B, E. B, Kennedy, George L. Miller, Charles Ogden, Frank Irvine and Carroll S. Montgomery, all proniinent democrats and members of the Samoset club of this city, growing out of the Boyd banquet of historic note, came up’ again before Judge Davis yesterday and continued, for the reason that Mr. Pritchett, who figures both as a defendant and an attorney for his co-defendants as well as for himself, was at home sick and unable t0 be out from under the care of his physi- clan.

He was knocked down and six of his ribs were broken, causing him untold suffering and unfitting him for performing any manual labor. Jurors Jumped On. The jury in the case of the state against Ed Tuttle, an appeal from the police court, failed to agree after being out over twelve hours. When they came into court and an- nounced their inability to agree on a verdict, Judge Keysor unbottled a small portion of his wrath for the purpose of in- forming the members of the panel that their conduct was most unseemly strang e, when it was apparent that a verdict of guifly should have been returned within ten min- ute:.

The people who attended the manufac- turers exposition held in Lincoln last spring as well as_tho present exposition in Omsaha, are remarking on the contrast between the two. At Lincoln the largest building that could be secured was too small to hold the crowds that sought admittance overy after- noon and evening. It was nota question with the management how to get the people out to see the exposition, but rather how to take care of the crowds that came of their own accord. The state exposition at Omaha has been advertised much more extensively; it is a much finer display, and yet it has been im- possible thus far to get out anything like a crowd. ‘It looks as if the people of Omaha were asleep and unable to seo & good shing when it is right in their midst,” said ex- Secretary of the Board of Trade W. N, Na- son. ‘I do notunderstand what the people of Omaha are thinking about that they do not come out and see this exposition which is something the whole state ought to be roud of,” said J. W. Love of Fremont. Such remarks are heard on every hand, The weather has not been very favorable, but if a few clouds threatening rain are sufticient to defeat an enterprise in which thousands of dollars have been expended, it is very little encouragement to repeat the experiment, say the manufacturers. 'he manufacturers from the different points outside of Omaha are recelving many compliments for their enterprise in coming 80 far to exhibit their goods. O'Neill has a very interesting booth showing its chicory industry. There is the raw chicory and chicory roasted and prepared in the differ- ent forms for the market, and visitors are given an opportunmity to drink a cup of chic- ory coffee. One thousand acres of chicory were planted at O'Neill this year, In the Lincoln section there are exhibits of bicycles. harness and saddlery, pottery and fall lines of toilet preparations, per- fumes and extracts. That Lincoln should have the only exhibit of harness and saddlery excites some comment, in view of the fact that there are supposed to be sey- eral harness factories in Omaha. Kearney, besides having a cotton milt in operation, shows a fine line of blank books, being the only printers’ exhibit in the expo- sition. The Omaha printers met to talk over the subject of making a display at the expo- sition, roasted a couple of firms that had sent out of the city for some printing, and adjourned, Crete has bullt two structures that are ex- act reproductions of their two flour mills, In the interfor are sacks of flour, showing the different brands turned out by the mills. The fact is, that the flour exhibits are among the most interesting and instructive 1n the whole exposition. The mills at Omaha, Pierce and Valentine are represented as well as those at Crete. —_— Piles of o have pies, but De Witts Witeh Hugl'g?lw will cure them. o ————— To be cured of rheumatism for $2.00 or money refunded is certainly a fair offer.

Arrangements Made for the Reception of the Visitors Today. The members of the BHuropean Interna- tional Press club, who arrive in Omaha today on their trip to the Pacific coast, wiil be warmly welcomed here. This much was decided on at the meeting of the German club Thursday night. The time to perfect ar- rangements for a proper reception and enter- tainment being very short, the latter organ- ization concluded to take the matter in its own hands and make it a club business. It was decided to provide eight car- l‘|||firs in addition to those that might be fur- nished by other citizens to receive the dis- tinguished Fabar pushers at the depot at 9:30a. m. Two of them will be assigned seats in_each carriage with two Omaha cit- izens who will point out points of interest to the visitors, Mayor Bemis, Messrs. E. Rose- water, G. M. Hitchcock and E. Schmeiser will be invited to seats in the vehicles. After a drive through the principal streets and visits to the principal buildings in the city, tho party Il be taken to the club rooms, where a luncheon is to be served to which covers for sixty will be laid. Speeches and toasts will enliven the occa- sion. Each visitor will then be presented with a }vrhn.ed delcrll)tlon of Omaha with views of the large bul dh\fis, as a souvenir, and when 4 o'clock comes the journalists will be conveyed back to the depot to resume their trip on the Denver train to the latter city.
