Yesterday he assaulted a colored woman named Mrs. Anna Hargloroad and some time later he attempted to commit the same erime upon another colored woman. Both women complainod against him and he was s00n arrested. e was to have been given a proliminary hearing before Judge Waters this forenoon, but Mrs. Hargleroad could not he found. She sent word to the station that sho did not like to gain any publicity by appearing in court as the principal wit- ness. She has been cited to appear tomor- row, however, and the trial will proceed. Sullivan is a runner for the Tiernan hotel. . Dr. Crim has made an examinationof the woman assaulted by the lusty hotel runner :mllha will testify thatshe has been badly used. On the Rosd to the Reformatory. Willie Pecbles is booked for the State Industrial school at Kearney, and if he does 10t RO this trip he certainly will the next. He as arrosted and taken before Judge Waters this morning on the charge of wiilful destruction of property. Charles Nye. a hack driver, was the complaining witness. Nye testified that while he was driving on Niuth street young Peebles throw a rock through his~ hack window, breaking the heavy plate glass. The boy has played the same trick several times before and Nyo arrested him because the amusement had become a little too monotonous. Judge Waters held the boy to the county court and an offort will be made to seud him to the reform school, Put s Horse in a Hole, J. H. Edwell of Havelock is seriously con- templating a damago suit against the city. While driving with his wife ina buggy on West O strect he approached that part of the street which is more or less obstructed by the holes excavated for the foundation of the viaduct piers. His horse shicd at one of the holes, which was surrounded by a light board fence, and in doing 8o tumbled head- long into another hole, directly opposite. Mr. Edwoll sprang from the carriage, but his wife and children were thrown into the Pit with the struggling horse. The fright- ened animal plunged fearfully, breaking the buggy into splinters. Almost by a miracle, Mrs. Edwell and the children were unin- jured. There were several feet of water in the pit, and it was a wonder that the children were not drowned. After consid- erable difficulty they were taken from the hole and the horse removed comparatively uninjured. The buggy is a total wreck. Fell from a Three-Story Window. A 18-year-old colored girl working for the family of C. M. Jacques, living at the corner of Fourteentn and H streets, is thanking her lucky star that she is alive today, even if she is considerably disfigured. Sheis a domestic in the empioy of Mr. Jacques and at night sleeps in the third story of the house. She went to bed last night as usual, but along about 3 0'clock this morning she started on a somnambulistic tour of the upper story and before she woke up she ‘walked out of the third story window. She struck tho stone walk squarely on her head and it is to this fact that she doubtless owes her life. Her front teeth were krocked out and her face badly cut. The bruises on her head and shoulders were too numerous to count, but otherwise she was uninjured. Lincoln in Brief. Harry Davis, a 12-year-old boy living on a farm near this city, went fishing in Salt creek yesterday afternoon and did not re- turn last night.

Beatrics, Aug. 23.—{Special to Tre Bee.] —The case of W. L. Knotts, editor of the Beatrice Dally Times, against James H. Casebeer, editor of the Blue Springs Senti- nel, was heard yesterday by Judgs Bush of the district court. The plaintiff asks that the court enjoin the Sentinel from printing the delinquent tax list of 1802, the contract for which was awarded to the Sentinel by the Board of Suporvisors after a hotly contested fight in _ which the ‘Times figurod as _an applicant for the award. The plaintiff alleges in his petition that the Sentinel i1 not a paper of | general circulation, and furthermore that Caseboer is a member of an immoral and illegal organization, pool or trust, known_as the Gage County P’ress association. The cuso is of peculiar interess to ali taxpayors, s the question will virtnally decide whiat is meant_by the term “general circulation.” Judge Bush reserved his decision till Satur- day, but should he grant an injunction the case will doubtless be carried to the supreme court and this action lead in the meantime to other suits of a like nature.

THE OMAHA MAY MEAY A BIG RATE WAR Union Pacifio Pnpu_ro;o Quit the Western Passenger Assooiation. CLAIMS THE RULES HAVE BEEN VIOLATED Efforts of the Ofiocials to Securs Redress Not Given SufMclent Attention to Protect the Overland Route's Business. Cnrcago, Aug. 23.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bee.)—A dark cloud bas made an ap- pearance on the horizon of the Western Passenger association which forbodes a storm of unusual severity. The Union Pacific threatens to demolish the association if the latter does not consent to treat it ina more fraternal spirit than has been the case lately. Forsome time past & row has been in progress between the transcontinental ines and to meet the action of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific roads the Union Pacific found it necessary, for the protection of its interests to reduce the rate on passenger business from the Missourl river to the Pacific coast to $25 tirst class and $18 second class, It offered those rates as basing rates to the lines in the assoclation east of the Missouri river; or in other words, it wanted those lines to use those reduced rates in con- nection with the rates cast of the Missourl and pro rata tho same on the regular basis. Refused the Request, The lines east of the Missouri, however, felt disinclined to comply with the Union Pacific's request and refused to use the reduced rates as basing rates. Bv this action they really compel the public to pay a higher rate through than the Union Pacific wants and places the latter in a position of an outsider although it is a membver of the Western Passenger assoclation. When the Union Pacitic joined the Western Passenger association it did so with the express under- standing that it would receive the protection of the association lines should it get into trouble with iis northern competitors which are not membors of the association. The re- fusal to do 50 now by the association lines east of tho Missouri river has put the Union Pacific oficials in a towering passion and as s0on us they learned that their request for using the reduced rates west of the river as basing rates had been refused they sent the following telegram to the chairman of the association: Explanations Demanded. “Under article viil of the agreement, what explanation have association lines to make to this company for refusing to use $25 first class and $18 second class rates from the Missouri river? As we understand this article, the refusal of the association lines to give relief disrupts the association, There is no agreement in effect today. One articie out, all out, because we shall insist upon the use of these rates and no member can de- prive us of this right without disruption of the whole agreement.” Chairman Caldwell sent a pacifying reply to the Union Pacific, taking the position that the association lines eastof the Mis- sourt river were justified in taking the action they did in order to prevent a rate war. The Union Pacific’s answer was that the first three lines of article viii protect its ratesana it is not within the power of the association as an association to ignore the Union Pacitic. Notice was subsequently given by the Union Pacific that it would transfer passen- gers and baggage free frow the depots of its connections to its own. It was informed that such action would be a clear violation of the agrecment, but the Union Pacific takes the position that the agreement was broken by its eastern connections and that it 13, therefore, at liberty to do as it pleases. ROW OVER RATES, Chances for a Lively Fight in the Western Passenger Ansociation. Cn1cAGO; Aug. 23.—Thé regular row over Grand Army rates has broken out ana there is & strong possibility that the result may bo something akin to demoralization before everything is peaceful again. The Rock Island today made a complaint against the Chicago Great Western, accusing it of paying commissions of 10 per cent, besides agreeing 1o grant free transportation to the various cemmittees which are arranging for the trip to Indianapolis. Both roads denied the accusation. Chairman Caldwell of the Western Passenger association investigated the matter and declared that ne could find no cause for the complaint. The matter was dropped for the time being. The Rock Island will return to the charge in a short time, however, as it declares that its complaint was well founded. The Western Passenger association today made a change in extension tickets to be sold for the Indianapolis encampment. The tickets will nov be sold for Indianapolis from August 30 to September 4, being good for woing on September 2, 3 and 4. This will give such members of the Grand Army as come through Chicago two days more in which to see the f: A proposition has been submitted to mako a one-fare rate for August 80 for Missouri day at the fair. The tickets will be sold August 29 and be good for returning until September 4. May Succoed Doddridge, Missouri Pacitic circles were considerably surprised yesterday morning to read in the St. Louis dispatches that ex-Assistant General Manager George C. Smith had been sum- moned to New York by George Gould. A largely signed petition of St. Louis busi- ness men asking for the appointment of Mr, Smith as general manager of the road was forwarded to Mr. Gould some time ago and it is thought the call made upon Mr. Smith is due to the receipt of this petition. Mr. Doddridge, general manager of the Missouri Pacific, does not seem to give the satisfaction in the conduct of affairs as Mr. Smith, and in consequence there are those who would like to see the present general manager removed, Mr, Smith was exceed- ingly popular with his men, and was lod to expoct the appointment of general manager on the reorganization of the road. But fail- ing in this he resigned and has since been out of the railway service. 1t is signiticant that Mr. Doddridge should not know of this movement to set him aside ©; pt a8 he has learned iv vhrough the s8. At least a friend of Mr. Doddridge’s, Just returned from St. Louis, informed a Bre reporter that he had an interview with the general manager last week, in which the atter stated he know absolutely nothing of the movement to displace him. From a source regarded as authentic it 15 learned that a new place will be created for Mr. Smith and that he will enter active rairoad work shortly, After the Odd Follows. The local passenger agents are at present engaged in hustling for Odd Fellows who are going to the World’s fair for Odd Fel- lows' day. It is quietly intimated that nearly all the passenger boys have joined or are about to join the order with the hope that they will become patriarchs ininiated before the day set for their departure. It was rumored yesterday morning that the Odd Fellows had secured a $5 rate to the fair from one of the railroads here, 1o go into offect September 20, zood for thirty days, providing the Odd Fellows would guarantes 1,000 tickets at that rate. Of course this is clear cut and if such a cut is made there will undoubtedly be warm times io this usu- ally peaceful railroad center. Some of the roads have had a taste of pariy business and they mean to get more of it if such & thing is possible. On the Rate Litigation, General Manager Holdrege was in a some- what talkative vein yesterday morning and when asked as to the reply of the state in the maximum rate case, stated it was nothing more than he had anticipated. *“The ques- tion of state rights raised by the attorneys for the Board of Railway Com- missioners is of little value in this case. There are questions of more than state im- portance in this case &s the attorneys on the other side will find out. Federal courts will be found to have jurisdiction and [ have no DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, doubt about onr ability 8 declare the law unconstisutional.” fead Mr. Holdredge has t returned from Sneridan and vieinity and the Big Horn mountains where he erifoyed soveral days of trout fishing. 10 NEWS FOR THE ARMY.

As an ohject lesson to the youth of America, the stirring pictures of revolution- ary days, which are introduced in the Adam Forepaagh shows, are worthy the gorgeous setting given them. Hereinis a fruitful theme which has been worked legitimately and well. William Gillette is responsible for the grouping and action of the characters and his dramatio instinct is seen at its very best in these his- tory-making times, when Paul Rovere mado his famous ride, down to the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. But, barring the new features which the owners of the k'ore- paugh show have imtroduced this year, the circus is decidedly tame aud uninteresting. The fact is, 'Omaha was reated to only a section of the Forepaugh show this scason, the managers hav- ing commenced curtailing ever since leaving Cleveland eight weeks ago. Business has been bad and many of the big attractions were missing. Irwin, the great head bal- ancer, gave a difficult exnibition on the trapeze, George Arstingstall and his herd of magnificently trained elephants attracted a great deal of attention, while the bareback riding was up to the standard, but beyond this the acts were ordinary, Forepaugh living, gave to the amusement-loving public a wealth of fine avtractions, but Forepaugn dead, his show seems to have ‘‘gone demo- cratic.” ———— Sad Sulelde of An 1owa Man.
