Mrs. Hiram Brotherton commenced au action in an Omaha court some time ago against the Manhattan Beach company to collect $5,000 on account of the death of her husband, who was drowned i the lake about a year ago.

ANNUAL CLOAK Opening at the Boston Store. “This is un event that is always looked forward to, both by our customers in and out of the city, and although new to some merchants, it is an old, but good story to the people of Council Bluffs and vicinity. We will have with us again this season that ever affable gentleman, Henry J. Schroff, representing _the cloak firm of Julius Stein & Co., New York, which, although not the largest, are one of the best cloak manufacturers in the United States and are known all over the country as the most reliable man- ufucturers of perfect fitting garments, whether it be a $1 cloak or one that cost $100. Madame Stein superintends all the cutting and designing of every gar- ment that is made by them, and has just lately returned from a visit to Paris, Berlin and London, bringing with her all the latest novelties that always come out at this season of the vear, and, as the majority of merchants have all their garments bought in the spring, wo have always something newer to show, as the novelties are always later coming out. Mr. Schroff has with him this fall the largest line he has ever shown here, and mentions in his letter that his styles are mhead of anything he met in competition with other manufacturers. He will be with us THURSDAY, FRIDAY and SATUR- DAY of this week, and as has always been our custom you will find a new price on every cloak in the store for these three days, and you can buy one of his garments at his own price, which is B0 per cent less than a retail merchant would charge you. Don’t forget the date of this grand opening sale, October 20, 27 and 28. Don't be misled by other fictitious advertisements. You know what our sale means. Wait for it.

HE WAS NOT SO GREEN AS HE SEEMED 4. F. Logan of Missourl Valley the Bait by Menns of Whieh a Trio of Sharks Was Landed Safely He- hind the Bars. Togan, a farmer living noar Missourl Valley, was in the city yesterdsy morriffg, and as a result of his visit three men occupy the steel cellin the city jail, witha fair prospect of donning a garb of stripes with- out the stars before they get out of the present meck of woods. Logan has a good deal of the outward appearance of a man who has come 1n from the backwoods to take a look at the “raiiroad k eers,” but his appearances are somewhat deceptive. He was sharp enough to bag three of his would be victimizers, He was in tho vicinity of the North- westorn depot when a man introduced him- self and wanted to get acquainted, Logan was of a sociable turn of mind and had no objections. After a time another man came up. He was on his way to California, where a relative of his had just died. He providen- tially came up just after the first mun had ed up a small padiock. What's that you'vg got?" was his first question, Toe man with the lock told bim he had just picked 1t up on the street. Their Work Was a Trifle Coarse, The usual parley took place and the two con men nted to get up a bet with the Missouri Valley man that the lock could not he opened. The countryman bad been tho object of so many would-be confidence men that he was prepared for the emergency. He firmly refused to do uny gambliag, afid at the first opportunity cut loose from his new found friends. Going to the marshal's office, he informed the officers of what taken place, and fur- nished them with a description, of the two fellows. Ofticers Covalt and Slead soon ran across three men in the neighborhood of B park. Twoof them answerad the ription of the two wanted, and all three were consequently run in. At the patrol box they tried to throw away their locks, but were detccted and foiled, Logan went to the jail immediately after they had been pnt inside, and recognized the Lwo men as the ones who tried to work him. He had never seen the third, but the latter's actions at the jail were suspicious, and the officers believe that the only reason he did not appear in the game was that the game stopped too soon. He gave his name as B, Borschers, and among his effects were a number of blank checks. The other two men gave their names as James Williams and James Spencer. They Were Omana Talent. Tt was at first teared: that Borschers would have to be turned loose on account of lack of evidence to connect him with the gang, but developments late in theafternoon showed differently. e Omaha authorities were notified of the catch and Officers Mos- tyn, Savage and Dempsey came over, accom- panied by a man who was worked on ‘Tues- day to the tune of #45 in cash by one of the old time contidence tricks. When shown the three men the sucker at once identified Spencer and Borschers as the two men who dia the job. Borschers was taken across the river, but his partner will have to stay here awhile. Borschers also recoguized his victim and greeted him pleasantly when he entered the room. . The man who had given his name’ as Will- iams was recognizea by the Omaha officers as “Swede Henry” Anderson, one of the most notorious ccnfidence sharks in the west, and Spencer is his son Pete, also a_well known membver of the profession. wore a false beard when he tus in Omana, but his victim recogn his walk and his general build, which is sev- eral sizes smaller than that of most men. He formerly was employed as district mes- scuger boy in Omaha, but forsook that call- ing some years ago for one that would bring in more moncy. Convicted In Nebraska Once. The older Anderson was sent up from the Omaha courts for two years in the peni- tentiary forone of Lis former escapades. Borschers, in addition to the confidenco charge, will also have to answer to several charges of fogery. Thero is great rejoiciug in the police de- partments of both cities over this cateh, and Officers Covalt and Slead are entitled to con- siderable credit for the part they played in the affair. There is but little doubt that all three men will be sent over the road. Logan declares that he will prosecute to the finish, and as La Floche and Shepard got two years last Monday for playing the same trick, what the finish will be seems to be pretty definitely settled. The Omaha victim also says he will stay there and prosecute. Helped a Stranger. Daniel Corbitt, a young man who has been running a threshing machine engine on a farm near Sioux City, also brushed up against a confidence man yesterday, but he Wwas nov so smart as the Missouri Valley mau, and consequently he is not so rich. He called at the city marshal's office yester- day afternoon with his heart full of worm-e| wood and gall. A trick that was older than Methuselah had just been worked on hiw, but it was as new to him as though it had just been invented. The confidence man was hardly worthy of bemg so called, for by the young man's own admission the only clalm he made for friendship was the fact that he expected to go out on the same Kansas City train with the young man in theevening, He then wanted i loan of §5 to assist in paying the express charges on a package. Corbitt had seen a check for $570 in the young man' ssession, and having a great deal of confidence in a man who had so much money all at one time he willingly loaned him the $5, which was the sum total of his pile. ‘The con man then went up into the Merriaru block to get his check cashed, and it is needless to say he did not_return to pursue his acquaintance with the guileless yo Corbitt afterwards had a suspicion that the $570 check had been improvised for the occasion.

ALDERMEN, They Threw Ovarboard a Chance to Junket & While at the World's Fair. There was an adjourned meeting of the city council last evening with the mayor and all the aldermen present excepting Getso and White. An invitation was read from the manage- ment of the World’s fair asking the council to be present at the exposition festivities on the 25th as guests of the exposition. Alder- man Smith presented a resolution accepting the invitation and declaring that all the members of the council should attend the fair on the day in question without expense to the city. The lastclausen his resolution was underscored. Most of the aldermen would have liked to do away with that por- tion, but they allowed their patriotism to get the better of their natural willingness to get something for nothing and passed the resolution, with the result that the World's fair will probably have to worry along on the 25th without the Council Bluffs ulder- men. James G. Bradley filed his bond as chiel of the fire department. which was approved. 1t was in the sum of $2.000, and the sureties were W. C. James und . C. Devol. An or ce was proposed to take the place of the one now on the books providing that no sidewalks shall be constructed on Broadway from First street to KEighth street, on Pear] street from Broadway to Sixth avenue. and on Main street from Broadway to Ninth - avenue, of any inaterial excepting natural or artificial stone. The new ordinance is designed to amend tbe old by allowing hard-burned brick to be used. After the second reading it was laid over until the next meeting. The committec on bridges was authorized to repair the Indian creek bridges on Tenth street and Twentieth avenue. The city solicitor was authorized to secure the necessary abstracts to proceed with the condemnation of property 5o as to open up Little Curtis and North First streets. The motor company was ordered to move its tracks at the intersection of Broadway and Oak street so as to leave a space of thirteen feet between the rail and the curb- stone. p The bids of L. C. Besley, C. H. Huber and E. A. Wickham for sewer work were opened and referred to the city engineer for tabula- tion. When the bids had been tabulated it was found that Stimson & Huber were the lowest on pipe sewer and Wickham on brick sewer. Wickham had put his bid on brick down 1o the lowest notch in order to capture the whole business, and Huber had done the same on the pipe in order to catch Wickham. ‘When the table was consulted the council came 1t over both of them by dividing up and giving the brick to Wickham and the pive to Stimson & Huber. Huber kicked vigorously at this and declared he would not sign any such contract.

Wasnixaros, Oct. 25.—The Navy depart ment learned by telegram from Rear Admiral Stanton, in command of the United States naval forces at Rio de Janeiro, that this officer had saluted the flag of Admiral Mello, commanding the insurgent fleet. This salute was unauthorized by any in- structions the admiral had received. It was an unfriendly act toward a friendly power, and the secretary of the navy, after consult- ing with the president and secretary of state, issued an order detaching Admiral Stanton from command of his squadron and turning it over to Captain Picking, the next officer in rank. This was in reply to a tele- gram of inquiry. Secretary Herbert early today saw the Associated press dispatch from Rio de Ja- neiro saying the American commander had exchanged visits and salutes with Admiral Meilo of the insurgent fleet. He was loth to believe the statements were correct and expressed his doubts to a reporter who called upon him. If Admiral Stanton had merely exchanged an ordinary, unoficial visit on business matters with Admiral Mello the secretary would not have been surprised, nor would he probably have taken further notice of it, as it is said at the Navy department, this would not be improper. But the secrotary saw at once the serious and unfortunate nature of the step said to have been taken by Admiral Stanton and how it might be construed by the lawful government of Brazil. He therefore lost no time in promptly cabling to Rio for all the facts in the case, to which he received a prompt reply with the results noted above. Naval officials talked with on the subject are at a loss to unt for 80 serious a breach of duty on the part of Admival Stanton. It is said that Captain Picking will remain in charge of the fleet of American ships in the haroor, possibly permanently, or at any rate until a successor to Rear Admiral Stanton is appointed. Commodore Ramsey, chief of the bureau of navigation, said today it had not yet been determined who would succeed Stanton. Information has been received at the State department from Minister Thomson at Rio to the effect that the rebels claim to have established a provisional government in the state of St. Catherina, with Senor Loreno as president. Secretary Herbert expressed his surprise that an ofticer of Admiral Stanton's experi- ence and standing should commit such a blunder, and his prompt_action is taken for the purpose of announcing t the world that the United States government has taken no steps to refuse recognition to the legally con- stituted Brazilian government.
