BROTHER BLAKE IS BOUNCED Termination of the Trial in K. of L. Ae- sembly 65141 HEARD BOTH SIDES AND THEN DECIDED #e Found Gulity of Having Made Unfounded Charges Agninst a W —He is Dropped from the Ranks of Titled Tollers. Jesse Blake is a Knight of Labor no more He has been reduced to the ranks of an everyduy plebeian, in accordance with a de- cision rendered early Sunday morning by the stern judge presiding over local 5141 Knights of Labor court, established to try issues between contending brothers and sisters in that order. When Tre Bee first published the news that the Jones-Blakeaffair had reached that stage where a secrot tribunal would be called upon to decide whether Mrs. Jones or Mr. Blake should longer enjoy knighthood in the order of the toiling m; iv created & sensation in organized labor circles. Only the prosccution's side w: sented on the date first sct, defendant's at- torney having left for Lincoln toattend the state labor congress, The hearing was therefore, postponed until last Saturday Certain charges which Mrs, Jones, dress maker, considered damaging to her charac ter, furnished the basis for the action. On' Monday, n week ago, the matter was again taken up in o meeting but counsel prevailed to let it go over to Saturday. Streaks of gore on the moon had developed by this time and were plainly visi- ble to the naked eye. Both sides claimed that injustice had been done them. and the feeling became more and more embittered as time went on and more friends gathered to one or the other side to do battle. The climax of all this was not even canped by the decision of expulsion. The warfure still continues, as notice of an appeal ha been given. This will bring the matter be fore the court of District assembly No. 126, and more interesting details are promised in the future. At the trial last Saturc and the defenso wer sented by attorneys. Cohen looked after th as judge advocate, v assistunt and especiully engaged to prose- Tute in the interest of the complaining wit- ness, while D, Clem Deaver, single handed and alone, faced the array of legal talent on the other side and defended the charges, or rather endeavored to prove the cofrectncss of the report for which his client was veing hauled over the burning coals. The admis ral afidavits by the defendant formed the ground upon which the battle forawhile was fought but not won by the accused. Although ruled admissible, the solemnly acknowledged documents’ only turned the tide in Mr. Blake's favor for a short s of time. They and their contents were literally torn to shreds by the assistant prosecutor in his closing argument to protect what he con- sidered a virtuous woman's reputation. Fhe attorney for the occasion waxed eloquent at times in his scathing denunciations of the defendant and in his zeal for his client his efforts weroe crowned with success when Judge Erdman's decision was shortly after announced.

Judge Derka Passes Sentence Upon Seventy Violators of the Law. ‘When Judge Berka donned the robes of authority 1n the police court yesterday morn- ing he found that Chief Seavey’s officers had rounded up about seventy people, who repre- sent that class of people who are not gener- plly useful citizens. Tramps, vagrants, frail females, thieves, drunkards and all the grades of the petty crimal classes were crowded together in the prisoners’ fdock. The judge carefully adjusted his specs, and assuming that stern look kers know means a big fine for callel out the names of Arthur Lacy and Herbert Crockerma “You fellows are charged with h chronic aversion for manual labor. Each of you looks like an honorary member of the nited Sons of Rest. What nhave you to say in answer to the charge?” Oneof the fellows said he was a snow shoveler by trade and the other replied that he was only a plain vagrant. “Thirty days each in the county jail,” said his honor, *‘Call the next case, sergeant,” and the mills of justice began to grind. George Eilis, one of the gang captured at the United States hotel Saturday night, had a gun which mude him lop shouldered to carry around. 'The officers think they want him for a more serious charge, and the judge continued the c; until the oficers could look up ELis’ record more fully. Clara Doe, alias Nellie Ravenkamp, who is a very tough young woman, was fined $17.50 for disorderly conduct Saturday night. Sho ave the ofticers a defiant look and went elow, suying she would nover pay a fine, Harry Mickle made his debut before the police Jjudge this morning to answer to a charge of drunkenness. He was fined £ and costs, but sentence was suspended pend- ing his future good behavior. Twenty-four tough looking vagrants lined up before the judicial eye and after securing their personnel the judge ve them fifteen minutes to put the Missouri river betwecen them and Omaha, It is thought they are delegates returning from the natios con- vention of tramps and “growler workers which honored Des Moiues, la,, with their presence last week.

Major Cushing is an old timer in Omaha, yet heis a comparatively young man in appearance and decidedly young in feel- ing, Heis a typical soldier, hearty, sociable and full of life. He was stationed in Omaha for more than a year in 1860 and 1867, when the town was but a scattering and uniovit- ing village.

COOK & SON, 15th and Douglas. e Sy da Balloon tonight and tomorrow night, e TO HELP PUBLIC WORKS, Oficints Have a Plan by Which Contractors Moy Go On. Another branch of the public work may be brought to a standstill. This time it is the contractors on the main sewers who may be called off by thecity council and the work stopped. The difficulty arises over the inability of the city to float the £100,000 main sewer bonds voted last fall, as”well as the inability of the con- tractors themselves to raise money on estimates allowed on the work. Heretofore the banks have helped out the contractors and advanced money whenever the monthly partial estimates have been allowed. ‘I'ho scarcity of money has caused the banks to be less liberal, and they now refuse to help the contractors tide over. The sewer fund is exhausted and the city cannot pay for the work as it proceeds. The result is that the officials are confronted with a perplex ing problem. They do not desire to see all public work at a standstill, and yet the con- tractor canuot complete the work unless he can raise the wherewithal to compensate nis laborers. This morning at 11 o'clock tho sewer contractorg will meet Treasurer Bolln, Comp- troller Olsen, Assistant City Attornoy Cor- nish and Councilman Wheeler, chairman of the finance committee. The question in alf its bearings will be discussed, and it may be that a plan can be hit upon which will en- able the contractors to proceed and the city to provide the uccessary funds. There is an abundance of ideas as to how this can be brought about, and by a compari- son of motes a plan may be hit upon. It is understood that Mr. Cor- nish and Mr. Wheeler do not believe that the city can proviae funds unless the bonds are sold, and that any steps taken would be 1llegal. Treasurer Bolln and Comptroller Olsen are inclined to takea different view of the situation and will sug- gest a plan to the conference, If their plans are not a violation of the city charter and ordinances they will probably be adopred. Before this is done, however, it will be necessary for Mr, Cornish to look into the legality of the same. Mr. ‘O'sen expressed himself yesterday morning as follows: “'I believe the city should do unything it can to help out the contract- ors, and I have studied out a plan I consider fensible and legal. The charter provides that the city can at any time invest the sur- plus of any funds in short time bonds or other good securities. The sewer bonds are of the long time issue and, of course, we cannot purchuse those. But we can allow the estimates of the contractors, issue the wurrants ogainst the sewer fund to draw 7 per cent interest from date until taken up as soon as the bonds are disposed of, which I believe will not be further AWa) than three months. We huve a surplus in several funds that can be spared for that length of time. The main sewers under contract and certified o will amount to about #4,000. Now we have a surplus in the rilf’ hall fund of $15,000,and our general fund could spare a-few thousand as weli as the miscellsdeous fund, With the money thus derived it could be invested in the sewer warrants, as they are good so- curity, and I believe by Jdoing so we would comply with the spirit and letter gf the law. In the grading, district sewer and paving we issue wurrants as soon as the special assessments have been levied and do not wait until the taxes have been paid. I fail to see why we cannot do it in this instance, and I shall urge that the same be done.” ‘Treasurer Bolln says there is §70,000 in the sinking fund, which he belioves could ve used in taking up the wareauts in case they are issued, It would only bo necessary 1o provide for §22,000 to come from that fund the first of the month and thercafter the re- ceipts of taxes will be suflicient to meet the obligations. Mr, Bolln believes that the sewer bonds can be sold within the next three months, and the diverting of the money from the sinking fund would beibut tempo- rary and perwit the sewer men®to proceed withftheir worlk.

R i CHARL L SIITUTIONS. Owana, July 10.-To the Editor of Tue Bre: A statemens (editorial I believe) in your paper a fow weeks since with refer- ence to the religious and benevolent spirit characterizing the citizens of Omaha, as compared with other cities in the United States, in the main, doubtless, was correct. Asa native of the Pine Tree state and a life-long citizen of tho Hub state, 1t may be assumed that my observation and knowledge of —for instance—the observance of the Sab- bath dey in the old Puritanic city of Boston is no better kept than in Omaha. Cer- tainly from my limited = experience in this and closely obsery ing the s’ and general appearance of citizens and environments, I can see no apparent differenco in this direotion between the Gate City and the Hub, In regard to the beneyoleut and charitable institutions of Omaha, T have but limited knowledge. Of course in 80 young o eity it cannot bo ex- pected that institutions like the richly en- dowed ones of Boston- and other old cities should be found in Omaha. In New York city, for _instance, thero are thirty institu- tions cimilar to the Rescue Hall city mission in this city, besides many other bencvolent institutions, the outgrowth of Christian charity. Ihave interested mysef to some extent in the workings of the Rescue Hall enterprise in this city. I have found from observation and reliable authority that it has been and still one of the greatest factors in the rescue of the inebriate and the unfortunate of all classes to be found in the west. It suredly should receive the sympathy and substantial assistance of all lovers of the race. G. W. R. M e DISTINGUISHED VISITORS, President Sacaza of Nlcaragua and His Family Arrive at San Diego, SAN Drego, July 10.—Among tha passen- gers arriving at this port by the Pacific Mail steamer Colon was Roberto Sacaza, presi- dent of Nicaragua, who, in company with his wife and two sons, is enroute to Chicago, Washington and New York. The party em- barked at Corinto, the steamer Colon being the first to visit that port since revolutionary disturbances commenced in that city. Sa- caza said his present visit to the United States is for instruction and recreation merely,and that with his family he intends vo spend some time at the World's fair. He as- cribes the revolution, not to personal enmity toward himself, but to strong jealousy existing between the cities of Leon Granada. He gives great credit to Min Baker of the United States, who is the one, he says, who succeeded in bringing the rival factions together. By the terms of the treaty, he says, positively, that his with- drawal from the presidency was not de- mande 1 still am the constitutional president of Nicaragua,” said he, “and have left the chair only for the time that will be occupied in this visit, which.will consume about five months. During my absence my trusted friend, Senator Machado, will act in my place.” It has been agreed to hold a conven- tion within four months to revise the con- stitution, and the matter will be scttled, therefore, before I return home. e i Distriet Court Doings. Allof the distriet court judges, with the exception of Judges Scott and Ferguson, have already lefuthe city on their summer vacations, and as the latter has enough busi- ness on hand to occupy all his attention until he is ready to depart, Judge Scott will hold himself in readiness to hear such matters and issue such orders as may be necessary until some of the other judges have returned. ‘The court journal has not yet been formally closed for the term, and will not be for sev- eral days, although the term proper came to an end a-week ago. Judge Scott yesterdny heard the argu- ments in the contempt proceedings brought against Samuel P. Morse for violating the order of the court restraining him from going upon the residence properuy heretofore occupied by him on South Thirty-second street, pending the trial of the divorce case brought by his wife a couple of weeks ago. The defeudant was found guilty of violating the order, and was fined $200 and costs, the defendant to stand committed until paid, but the whole was -held in abeyance until the defendant further violated the injunc- tion. The arguments on the injunction itself come up before the same judge at 3 o’clock tomorrow afternoon s urface Water” on Block 86, ‘Workmen are engaged in constructing a sewer from the basement of the new post- oftice building to the sewer on Capitol « nue for the purpose of draining off the water that oozes out of the ground and keeps the bottom of the basement ina very unsatis- factory condition. It was the intention of the former superintending architect, Mr. Beindorff, to have a deep well bored in the bottom of the basement, through which he belioved the surplus water would escape to the level of the bed of sand that underlies the structure, The scheme, however, was never put into operation, The sewer ou Sixtecnth street is not low enough to furnish an outlet for this water, but the sewer on Capitol avenue is lower and will serve the purpose ifit is large enough. It is feared that this sewer may not be large enough and the government may ask the city to enlarge it. Bids for the stonie work on’ the superstructure will be opened in Washington city on July 20 and it is believed that in ono month after thut date there will be u scene of activity on the square occupied by the basement story of the huge building. ————— Independents Wil Convene, Omana, July 8, 1803, —We, the undersigned, hereby call a meeting of the independents of Douglas county to meet at Knights of Labor hall, 110 and 112 South Fourteenth street on Friday evening, July 21, at 8 o'clock, for the purpose_of talking over the political situation and offering suggestion as to what is best to be done i the coming campaign.
