The members of the club, who are push- ing it, have been given a very low rate of fare by all the railroads, and as this greatest of all spectacular performances and fire- works display will last for three weeks, it is expected that many thousands of people from lowa and Nebraska will be in attend- ance, and that the merchants of these two states will find it convenient to come to Omaha and make their fall purchases at that time.

In answer to the gecond question the New York legal light sald: “Interest has not been paid upon the first mortgage bonds due July 1 inst., but the company is allowed six months indulgence, during which period fore- closure proceedings may not lie, The re- ceivers are very hopeful, how that be- fore the expiration of the period mentioned the revival of business and the restoration of peace will permit them to pay coupons due July 1. No one can tell as to the length of t it would take to foreclose on the mortgage, as there are many contingencl likely to arige, that upon some of them th supreme court of the United States miRht be called upon to express an opinion.

It might have a tendency, in view of the default in interest, to cause some persons to sell on account of the non- payment, and thereby cause a flurry in the gtreet, but T anticipate the stock of the com- pany Is about as low as it can go.” Mr. Anderson, after listening to Mr. Cou- dert’s opinion, remarked that the comple- tion of foreclosure proccedings, which would have the effe of foreclosing on the entire terr and clearing the decks of all rub. bish that a new start might be made, would probably take five years. Speaking of the main line between Omaha and Ogden, Mr. Anderson volunteered the information that the bonds following the government liens were sinking fund 8s, s cured b ds along the line, of which only outstanding. TION TO SUFFER MOST. “The obligation cf the company which will suffer most by the failure of any adjustment between the United States and the company is the debt to the government of the United States. The value of that asset of the gov- ernment will necessarily be decreased by the failure to reach a satisfactory basis.” discussing the third interrogatory Mr. on thought the foreclosure proceed- ings begun by Messrs, Gould and Sage against the Kansas Pacific would be bene- ficial to the system. “I also belive that foreclosure on the main line between Omaha and Ogden would be of great advantage to the system, the reason for this steiement being that as soon as a general foreclosure is commenced and a sale threaten:d, the interests that see them- selves about to be extinguished can bo readily brought together on a basis of rational re- nization which will restore the system or a large part of it, and in this way avert complete disintcgration. “What is most needed today for the bene- nd advantige of the community served by se railroads, of the holders of railrond securities, and of the government, is an in- telligent reorganization plan which shall offer to every creditor, including the g ernment, a substituted security for his pre: ent holding, which shall be the reasonable equivalent of the just market value of that which he now has."’ Mr. Coudert, discussing the system gener- aliy, thought that a general foreclosure was inevitable. “Even if the government should suffer somewhat by the sale of the property, it could well afford to lose the amount, for the road has paid for itself in developing the middle third of the continent. I do not look with favor upon the scheme to place the railroads, and particularly the Union Pacific, m the hands of the government, because it would bring new sourc:s of danger to the country. I be- lieve that with anything like o fair re- organization scheme the Union Pacific can be made cne of the greatest of railroad systems, and I fecl suro that if President Cleveland, Secretary Carlisle and Attorney General Olncy had the absolute right to settle tho matter it would be done in short order and satisfactory to the great mass of the people. “Just at present the company Is hard pushed for money and we have had some difficulty to m-et our pay rolls, but still we have not been compelled to horrow like vur neighbor, the Santa Fe, and we sincerely hope we will not have to resort to the court for help.” SUIT FOR ELEVEN MILLIONS? Cou- ORLIG Effort to Recover Large Sums from Russell d the e of Jay Gould. NEW YORK, July 21.—The Kansas P: cific bondholders® committee, of which Silas P. Dutcher is chairman, has entered suit in the United States circuit court for New York in the name of John Quincy Adams against o1l Sage and the estate of Jay Gould, to recover $11,000,000, being the proceeds of rities alleged to have been taken from the trust. Under the deed of trust executed to Sage and Gould, about $3,000,000 from the capital stock of the Denver Pacific Reilway company were deposited with the trustees as collateral security for the payment of the Kansas Pa- cific consolidated bonds. — These securities have been, it Is charged, taken out of the trust and the proceeds applied by the trus- tees to their individual benefits, The latter claimed to have obtained title to them through a suit which they Institutod in the name of the Kansas Pacific Rallway company (which was controlled by ~ them) against themselves. All that they alleged in these proceedings, it is contended, was that the Denver Pacific stock was of little value and that the mortgagor company would like to have it. Upon these allegations and within a period of seven days they ob- tained an order from Judge Donohue of the ew York supreme court to take the trust steck out of the trust and tyrn It back to tho railroad company. The company there- upen, it is alleged, handed the stock or the prccceds thereof over to Gould and Sage, who, it is alleged, have retained it for their personal purposes. The complaint In the suit also charges that the proceedings gave mo color of legality to the acts of Gould and Sage, who they claim to be accountable for the trust property, which, with premiums, dividends and other amounts, it {8 claimed amounts to over $4,000,000. It s asked that the Gould executors and Russell Sage be called upon to account for the funds, and that Sage and Ge Russell Sage was seen this afternoon by an Assoclated press representative, but de- clined to go into the merits of the sult He sald: “Everything that I have dono as trustee In this business is & matter of record and I am content to stand by the record, The answer to the guit wil be g T Rt Flee 4 say nothing on_the subject now save that ail the prdceedings are regular.” Wil Uniform the Help.

T s Wifo the City After an imprisonment of twenty-four hours Walter D. Reynolds was released from jail yesterday, on condition that he would not go back to the house of W. T, Lyons, on North Sixt enth street, and create disturbance, Reynolds, it will be re- membered, 1s the man who was jailed I'rl day on arrant charging that he had stolen and fmprisoned his own wife, Birdie, a daught r of Mrs. Lyons. Yesterday the case was called in police court, with Reynolds pleading not guilty. The county attorney did not feel like entering a dismissal and consequently ho kept Reynolds sitting around the court rocm until noon, waiting for some one to opcar and boek up the charges which had been filed, but as no person appeared the case was dismissed and the prisoner discharged, Réynolds in discussing the matter said that it was simply a case of too much mother-in- law and that the old lady was simply work- ing to break up his family for the reason that he was a pocr man. Friday night Reynolds had an interview with his wife, who informed him that she was ready and willing to go with him and share bis lot. as her love for him had not de- creased i the least. fter being rele: from Jail he was cau- oned about going to the home of the mother-in-law, promising not to molest or g0 near the premises, though he said that he was intending to meet his wife and take her from the at the first opportunity. — MORE BONES. Unecarth More Skeletons Under the Dodge Street +ehool The workmen who are excavating under the basement of the Dodge street school building struck another ncst of human bones yester- day and turncd up two skeletons and portions of three others. Like those found cral days ago, the bones were badly de- yed, proving conclusively to the mind of e coroner that they belonged to Individuals who must have dfed many years ago. The skelotons exhumed rday were found in what apparently appeared to be one grave, buried about two feet beneath the face. Close to one of the thigh bones there was found a piece of dark, coarse woolen cloth, while a fow inches away was located a pint flask, upon which was pasted a label, bearing this inscription, “Union Pa- cific Drug Store. - Some of the old settlers state that some twenty vears ago there was a drug store by this name located on lower Farnam stre-t, though none of them can remember who was the proprietor. This last find increases the number of skeletens dug from this basement to eight, besides the stray and scattering bones. - WANTS HIS POEMS, Nebraska City Author Offers & Reward for Hls Fugitive Vorses.

Kinkel Rendering com- pany.” The incorporators are: W. L. Selby, G. A Kinkel of this city, and J. Ritter of New York City, and the business is to render into grease and oils the dead hogs that arrive at the stock yards. The capital stock s $§5,000. The organization of this new company seems to be the result of a runnning fight between Mr. Kinkel and Mr. J. B. Smiley, members of the rendering company at Ma cott, recently closed by the court as a nuisance. Mr. Kinkel claims he was the sole owner of the Mascott plant and entered Into partnership with Mr. Smiley, who was to fur- nish $1,500, but failed to do so. Mr. Kinkel feels very much injured, and after paying Smiley $1 per head more than Smiley al- lowed the shippers for the dead hogs, claims undue advantage was taken of him during his absence on business, and that he has been frozen out of business. Mr. Kinkel has also applied for a recelver and brought suit against Smiley for $5,000 damages for def- amation of character. ————— A Mystory Explained. Residents and business men in the vicinity of the government building have joined in a letter to the chief of police, In which they aver, that in their opeinion the basement of the structure is haunted. They afirm that every night they hear strange noises es- caping from the dark basement, but as yet none of them have dared to institute an in- vestigation. In describing the noises, some- times they state that they resemble the sound of a man beating on a boiler, while at other times there are long and plteous wails resembling those uttered by a person in the greatest agony. The solution of the mystery Is easy enough, the facts being that the postofice cornet band has quarters in the basement of the build- ing, and the members meet there each night for practice, aitress objectsd to ound that she should have wn, but Mr. Markel said fish of one and fowl of atter ende head w Suys He Wil 1 Leave a the Worlmen o Diarrhoen.

The cause of the fire is a mystery, but it probably was caused by a spark from an arc lght in the Stowers company’s store igniting some shav- ings or newly varnished furniture.

Manager B. B. Freeman cf the hotel, however, had suc- ceeded in warning all the guests, and every one escaped, one man being badly scorched. The hotel is completely destroyed. It was the property of the Caldwell Hotel company, Dr. H. M. Caldwell of the Elyton Land company holding two-thirds of "the stock.
