Simmons of the Sioux County Journal was chosen chairman and Colonel Sheldon of the Chadron Signal secretary. The general sentiment seemed to be that . the state needs better laws to allow the full #" use of ail streams for irvigation purposes and that the general government or the state should make aporopriations for the purpoze of sinking experimental wells, and to these ends a committee of three from each of the four counties was provided to urge legislation favorable to irrigation and 1o co-operate with like committees from the organized irrigation districts. A permanent organization, known as the Northwest Nebraska Irrigation association was effected to meet annually at Crawford, and more frequently if deemed necessary by the officers of the organization. A great aed] of zeal was shown. Provision was made for county organizations to co-operate with the district orgunizations.

SECRETARY MORTON GIVES A DINNER President and Cabinet, with the La Entertained by the Affable Head of the Agricnltural Department Interests Being \Watched. Omnha's WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE BEE. Fourteenth Street, WASHINGTON, Feb. 8. Senator Allen is coming to the front. Since his arrival in the senate he has oceu pled a seat in the last row on the demo- cratic side near the west door of the cham- ber, and consequently at the maximum dis ance from the vice president’s chair, though there is really very little choice of seats in the senate owing to the small eize of the chamber as compared with the house. Late comers in that august body neverthe- less feel a great desire to get closer to the throne, as they £ an idea that their recognition depends on their geographic re- lations with the wielder of the gavel ator Allen has yielded to the temptation to get a hold and has made a deal that has advanced him two rows of seats, and has placed him in almost the front row of the senate as far as furniture is concerned. On the resignation of General Walthail la month Senator Allen began negotiations fc the seat thus vacated, which is in the se ond row counting from the front, four from the north end. Senator Turpie, however, who sat next to Walthall, expressed his de- sire to get further south, and Senator Allen gracefully submitted to Turpie's seniority of services of years, so Turpie moved one sea to the left and Allen came in from the back- woods of the last row and took his seat at the desk formerly occupied by Mr. Turpie This gives the populist from Nebraska a much more commanding position for his nu- merous onslaughts against the administra- tion, and for all the other parties in politics. He is right in it now. It is stated by a republican senator that the postponement of action on the Peckham nomination till next Monday has behind it some smart politics. Certain_democratic sen- ators, notably those from New York, who desire the rejection of Peckham. have prom- ised to vote for the Hale resolution compell- ing the finance committee to give hearings on the tariff bill. There is to be a vote on this resolution this week, and it remains to be seen whether certain demcerats will support the resolution. If they do they will get more republican support in turning down Peckham than if they play the ‘‘cuckoo™ and vote agajnst the resolution LOOKING OUT FOR OMAHA. Coples of resolutions passed by the Com- mercial club of Omaha requesting Senator Manderson to use his influence in having an Indian supply depot established at Omaha and guaranteeing lower prices for the gov- ernment has been recefved and will be laid before the commissioner of Indian affairs and Hoke Smith, with a most cordial en- dorsement and urgent request for com- pliance. Senator Manderson and Represent- ative Mercer believe that they may succeed in this effort and are determined to work together with all their energy for succes: They have also received copies of resolu- tions adopted by the city council asking them to secure an appropriation with which to improve the banks of the Missouri at Omaha in the interest of navigation and will make an effort to have an amendment to this end when the sundry civil appropria- tions bill comes up for consideration. Thi bill makes the appropriations for river and harbor improvements. It las this year a provision giving three-quarters of a million dollars “for_improving the Missouri from its mouth to Sioux City, and it is baraly pes- sible that an amendment may be tdied to the bill directing an expendiute or the banks at Omaha sufficient to reach tie de- sired end. MR. MORTON GIVES A L'NNEI. The secretary of agriculture and Miss Morton entertained President and Mrs. Cleveland last night at dinner. The table was laid in one of the large dining rooms at the Portland, and tastefully decorated with red and green. The room was set with fine palms massed in the corner. In the center st the cloth, resting on a stand of maiden- hair fern, was a great cornucopia of red carnations, from which fruits spilled out. When the ices came on they were in the shape of small vegetables, potatoes, corn, beets, tomatoes, etc. Besides the president and Mrs. Cleveland, there were present the secretary of state and Mrs. Gresham, the secretary of the treasury and Mrs. Carlisle, the secretary of the interior and Mrs. Smith, the secretary of the navy and Miss Herbert, the secretary of war and Mrs. Lamont, assistant secretary of the treasury and Miss Hamlin, General Bristow, Mr. and Mrs. Jay Morton, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Morton of Chicago and Mr. and Mrs. William D. Morton of Detroit. Secretary and Miss Morton have with them for a ten days' visit their brother, Mr. W. D. Morton of Detroit and wife, and the two sons of the secretary and their wives, Mr. and Mrs. Jay Morion and Mr. and Mrs. Paul Morton of Chicago. GENIUS REWARDED.

D., has copy- righted a valuable form of report for school teachers. The State university at Lin a letter here to Senator Manderson ing him that it will con the degree of L.L.D. upon him if he will appear at the university proceedings on the 15th instant. The senator and Mrs. Manderson are at w Orleans, and the letter has been for- warded to him. He expects to return here by the first of this week, and it is hardly possible that he will be able to visit Ne- braska at the time mentioned. Juan Boyle uf Kearney is at 1716 N street, visiting friends. The Western Art association of Omaha has, through Senator Manderson. applied to the minister of art, Paris, for plaster casts to be placed In its galleries at Omaha.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—3 deflciency ap- propriation of $400,000 for the expenses of United States courts which has been asked by the attorney general is being considered by the house appropriation committee and will probably be granted. It is not cus- tomary to appropriate in the sundry civil bill the full sum estimated as necessary for the United States courts, because it is im- possible to estimate in advance the witness fees and other expenses for the year. The committee thinks it will tend more to en- force economy upen the judicial department to allow it to create a deficiency than to give it & large sum to @raw upon. When- Sen- oln has sent notify- s n al- | ! | | great many ever money {8 appropriated, say the con- gressmen, officials manage 4o use it. TO FIGHT CHOL Large Amount Left Over from Last Year's Fund Held for the Same Purpose. WASHINGTON, Feb.. 6Recognizing the possibility that the cholera wave which has been making progresd avound the world from Asiatic sources the pAst two years may reach the United Statés mext summer, pro- vision is made fn the’ stndry civil bill re- ported to the house last week. No direct appropriation for flghting the cholera I8 made, but one clause of the bill provides for the use of the large upexpended balance re- maining from last year's appropriations for this purpose. In the sundry civil bill passed last March the sum of $900.000 was provided for fighting the cholera and other epidemic diseases, as there was thought to be at that time imminent danger of an in- vasion of the plague While the good and the eminent the Marine hospital service were through most of the summer in ward oft the cholera, which had strong a footlold in Europe, and then the vellow fever in Georgla, which demanded their attention, but $200,000 of the appropria- tion was used, and the balance, $700,000, remains untouched in the treasur: There was some discussion in the meet- ings of th mmittee which drew the sundry civil bill as to whether this large sum should be covered back into the treasury or left at the disposal of the Marine hospitals ether an entirely new appropriation under different conditions, should be recom- mended. It was decided to leave the balance of $700,000 as an emergency fund to be drawn upon in case of need and place it at the disposal of the president, as had been done last year. The president empowered to draw upon it in case of actual or threatened epidemic of cholera, vellow fever or smallpox, for the federal authori- ties to enforce the quarantine laws, or in aid of state or local boards of health, which may have to handle epidemics. Surgeon General Wyman of the Marine hospital under whose supervision the ri ment of the quarantine laws was e last summer, says that he considers this an ample safeguard so far as financlal precau- tions can go against the cholera. Although he asked the committee for a district ap- propriation of sufficient money to start the flscal year with the sam $900,000, which was at his command last year, he is well satisfied with the action taken officers of employed efforts to gained so servic OVER LAND LEGISLATION, Contest Between the House and the Senate Already Begun. WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—The action of the house committee on public lands vesterday in refusing to report favorably a bill sent over from the senate granting a certain amount of the proceeds of the sale of publie lands for the school of mines will probably be the beginning of a contest between the house and senate in the matter of land leg- islation. The senate committee on public lands is made up of western men. In the house a western men are on the com- mittee, but they do not come from the min- ing states or from those states where the great bulk of public lands is now located. There have been several measures proposed by these senators and approved by the sen- ate committee which will probably not re- ceive favorable consideration by the house. The scheme of the senators will be to at- tach this legislation to some of the appro- riation bills which, will appropriate on their subjects, and then will come the real contest between the house and senate over land legislation. It s probable that the western senators will. try to get through several bills in this way which they think will be of importance to their constituents. RE RDED AS KICKERS. Indians Who Visit Washington to Make Complaints Are Not Listened To. WASHINGTON, Feb. §.—Several members of the Sac and Fox and Kickapoo Indian tribes .in Oklahoma, and the Pottawatta- mies in Kansas, are In the city. They called upon Commissioner 0f Indfan Affairs Browning and Assistant Commissioner Arm- strong at the Indian bureau yesterday to make various complaints about reservation matters. The Pottawattamies who were in the delegation urged the removal of Indian Agent Joseph A. Scott of the Pottawattamie agency and the Great Nemaha agencies in Kansas, and a_general complaint of being forced to allot lands in severalty was made. The department has refused to recognize them as the representatives of their tribes and regards them as ‘kickers” whose ob- ject in making the trip was only to sce Washington. It is probable that they will accept the advice of the bureau officials by leaving for their reservation in a few days. HAS THE UNION PACIFIC IN VIEW. Senator Gray's Bill Relating to the Pur- chasers of Railroads. WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—Senator Gray has introduced a bill to enable purchasers at judicial sales of railroads organized under the laws of the United States to organize a new corporation. The bill has in view the possibility of a reorganization of the Union Pacific. The bill provides that the purchas- ers of such a road under a decree of a court of the United States shall file a copy of the deed conveying the property, together with a certificate by a majority of the purchasers setting forth the name, the amount of capi- tal stock and the plans of organization, with the secretary of the interior, which act shall vest them with the ownership of the prop- erty. The bill provides for the continuation of the five government directors until the government lien is discharged. The bill also grants the new organization the right to acquire any property of the old corporation or of any company since joined with it OPTION DEALING A CRIME. Senator George’s Bill on This Subject May Pass the Senate. WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—There is a possi- bility that the semate will pass the George anti-option bill, which was introduced only a short time ago and seeks to prevent deal- ings in options and futures by making it a crime instead of taxing them out of exist- ence, as provided for in the Washburn bill of the last congress. Several senators have announced that they are willing to give the George plan a trial, even if they prefer the other. The principal objection made to the George bill is that the dealers will either ade it or it will be declared unconstitu- tional. It s expected that Mr. Hatch will have a fight on his hands to secure the reference of his bill to the committee on ag- riculture, of which he is chairman, instead of the ways and means committee, where his ¢'ionents will try to send it. OR TILLMAY Judge Bradley's Decision on the Trade Mark Case Reversed. WASHINGTON, Feb. 6i~The court of ap- peals of the district has reversed the de- clsion of Judge Bradiey In the Palmetto trade mark liquor case &nd Commissioner of Patents Seymour this time has scored a point on Governor Tillman of South Carolina. After the = commissigner had refused to register the trade mark sought by Governor Tiliman for the South Carolina state brand of liquor, Judge Bradley, on application of the state of South Carolina, issued a mandamus requiring -the- commissioner of patents to register the trade mark. From this decision the commissioner appealed and the court of appeals has reversed the action of Judge Bradley. GOVERY LOSES, SENATOR ALLEN'S BILL, He Would Make the Issune of Injunctions Agninst Would-Be strikers Illegul. WASHINGTON, Feb, 6.—Senator Allea of Nebraska has introduced a bill “to prevent the abuse of the writ of Injunction.” It provides that it shall be unlawful for any United States court to fssue ‘a writ of in- Junction mandate or restraining order against any labor organization, its officers or members, in any manner affecting their full freedom to peacefuly and quietly quit the service of any person or corporation at any time they may see fit to do so, BEE: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1894 to | 1 enforces | ¢ rried out | | Another Day of Excitement in the Celebrated Cronin Murder Oase, ANDREW FOY'S SENSATIONAL EVIDENCE led by the Defense in the Coughlin Trial He Denies Many of Allegations — Judge Wing's Objectionable Remark. the Woman's CHICAGO, Feb. 6.—The presence of An- drew Foy in Judge Tuthill's chambers today indicated an interesting ot Coughlin case. There was little doubt of a bold purpose by the defense to put ome of the alleged conspirators, Foy, on the stand, in the attack on the testimony of the w ness for the prosecution, his wife, Mrs. Foy As soon as it became generally known that be was in the witness room there was an exeited movement of spectators in the court room, and the news being communicated to the corridor, a of people was soon clamoring for admission to the court room Mrs session dense mass the wife of a brick- of the da en Mrs. Susie Bertha Hary layer, was the first he testified to having Horton, a state witness, sitting in the Tront vard, in a sadly intoxfeated condition. This was on the day on which, according to the testimony of Mrs. Horton » latter saw Coughlin, Cooney and Foy meet near her home HoGe ¢ testified that his station o'clock. Ba witness Edgewater, he first morning train fro to Chicago in 1850 was at 9 loen, the witness, had testified that he had taken a train at 7:10 on the morning after he claimed to have seen “oughlin by searchlight. ‘Call Andrew Foy now,” said Judge Wing A tall, gray-haired man, with light gray mustache eame to the stand. Every one leaned forward so as to not lose a word of the examination. After preliminary ques- tions, Judge Wing asked: “Did you ever K Cronin 2" ticket agent at Did you ever know Daniel Coughlin?" “Yes, I have known him several y 1 od to see him during the spring election of 188! He came to my house and asked me to use all my influence for Thomas Cratty, the republican candidate for judge of the circuit court.” “Did you work for Cratty “[ did.” “State whether or not you and Coughlin ever held whispered conversations.” “We did not." “Did you ever say anything abou Cronin in your meetings at that time , 8ir: nothing whatever.” This caused a sensation in the court room, as it squarely contradicted the testimony of { Mrs. Foy, who had told of overhearing the { two men’ talking of the removal o Dr. | Cronin and said she had heard them reading a letter which instructed them “to remove him at all hazards.” Foy then told of Mrs. Horton's condition on Sunday, May 12. He said she was not sober. He denied having met Coughlin that night, thus contradicting Mrs. Horton's story. The witness told of his wife having called him an anarchist and of accusing him of throwing the Haymarket bomb. “Were you arrested and locked up in con- nection with the Cronin case like every other Irishman in the city? ed Judge Wing. ““Yes, sir,” replied Foy. ORDERED STRICKEN OUT The court ordered the last question stricken out. There was a heated dispute among the attorneys over Judge Wing's re- mark before the examination was resumed. “Did Daniel Coughlin have anything to do with it?" asked Judge Wing. “Not to my knowledge." “Did men ever come to vour house and conspire to kill Dr. Cronin?" “No sir.” “Did your wife ever call you the murderer of Dr. Cronin and say that Michael Ken- nedy drove the wagon that carried his body away?"’ he did.”” “I will ask you if you lived with wife up to the time she testifie That is until they put detect house?"" . “I did,” replied Foy, and turning to the court ho sai “They put detectives in my own house, your honor." “Did_you ever see Martin Burke at your house?" No sir." “Did you ever read aloud a Coughlin in your house?"’ “No sir.” Foy said he never knew Burke, Cooney, O'Sullivan and the other suspected camp 20 men. 5 On cross-examination Foy said he had had fifteen children, and that Mrs. Foy is the mother of all of them. After several questions, Assistant State’'s Attorney Bottum sprung a sensational query. “Did you tell your son, Thomas Foy,” he asked, “‘that your testimony concerning John Boyle in the defense of Coughlin was per- jury—that you had him give it to save your- self? That something desperate had to be done? Did you not say that?" “No, sir, T did not,” replied Foy Foy said he was at a meeting of camp 20 on the night of May 3, 1859, and might have seen Coughlin, Burke and Cooney there. He did not remember. The night of May 4 he was home and in bed. “Do you know anything about events which took place in the Carlson cottage the night of May 47" asked Attorney Bottum. “Only what I have read in the news- papers.” vour in this case. es into your letter to 1 have no personal knowledge?'' “Did you not send a letter to the Chicago Times, written in the presence of your wife, purporting to be the dying statement of a doctor and describing the events of May 4 in the Carlson cottage, by which events this doctor came to his death?” The question was a startling one, but had no visible effect on the witness. “I did not,” he repligd. The letter was shown to Foy, who again said he had not written it. The defendant’s lawyers moved to the letter incident stricken out, but motion was overruled by the court. The letter which Mrs. Foy says was writ- ten in her presence purports to be the ac- ount in a dying physician's words of his own murder in the Carlson cottage. The matter was printed at the time. It men- tioned a_criminal operation on a young girl and a brother'’s revenge. No name was signed. Mr. Bottum asked Foy if he had not of- fered his wife $100 and a pledge to stop drinking if she would not testify. The wit- ness denied this. The cross-examination continued throughout the afternoon. e B Montreal Snow Shoe Club, MONTREAL, Feb. 6.—On next Saturday the Montreal Snow Shoe club will hold its annual flat_races. In conjunction with lhvm‘._ Johnson and Norsing will skate two or three match races for suitable trophies, starting from opposite sides of the rink. This is one of the styies of skating in Europe, and Norsing claims he can defeat either Johnson or Donoghue. In such a race there is no loafing. It is go from the start, as it is pretty hard for the skaters to know just how they stand; the man making the best time wins. It is probable there will be a professional race between McCormick and Bren of St. John, N. B., and Oaf Nortwedt of Minneapolis.
