I am advised by the ac assist- ant ¢ attorney that there is sufficient authority for filling this vacancy without waiting for the enactment of an ordinance, and I therefore do hercby nominate and appoint, subject to your approval and con- firmation, John . ans to be city clerk of the city of Omaha until the general election, to be held in November of this year. 18 In accordance with the opinion of the act- ing assistant city attorney, above referred o, to the effect that the person appointed to fill this office can only serve until the next general ‘election, when a city clerk mult be elected to serve for the unexpired term, I recommend that an ordinance be e once providing for the filling of 5::5:‘..11:‘: in lhl:(‘nr any other elective office in the manner referred to.

The agre:ment to appoint Mr. Evans was reached at a meeting held in the mayor's office at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. All members of the council were present except Elsasser, and after some discussion Edwards gald that so far as he was concerned he thought that under the clrcumstances the most appropriate’ thing to do would be to make M Evans city clerk until election. This view was endorsed by the other re- publicans, and it is needless to state that the democrats were not displeased. At this time it was decided to request Mayor PBemis to appoint Mr. Evans with the un- derstanding that the appointment should be unanimously confirmed. s ‘What do you take medicine for?

Starving Thelr Horses, According to the reports of the garbage haulers flled with the health department tho poverty among the graders and similar classes In the city is something un- precedented. Most of these are people who subsist on what they can earn with their teams by working for the grading con- tractors and there has been so little public work golng on that they are at the verge of starvation. The reports of dead animals removed during July show an unusual num- ber of horses that have been hauled away and for which the haulers have not been able to collect the charges. The bulk of these horses have died of starvation Coolest ride her cause their owners had not been able to feed them. The inspectors who have investigated these cases say that In many Instances the owners are in destitute circumatances and are practically starving with their horses. Wednesday nt Morse's.

Adolph Ansord, a farm hand, working in Washington county, was at the police sta- tion yesterday to tell how he was held up and robbed of $48 and a gold watch while on the rond between Washington and Arling- ton last Thursday night. The reason that he did not make a complaint before this was the fact that he had been confined to bed ever since the robbery by injurics ed from the robbers. sord says that on Thursday he went to the bank in Blair and drew out all the money he had saved with the intention of coming to Omaha to look for work. A couple of men who had been working on an adjoining farm were in town and knew that he had the money. He started for home about 8 o'clock and had not proceeded. far before he was assaulted and robbed. He was left lying in the road in an unconscious condi- tion and did not recover his senses until nearly daylight. The robbers had struck him with some blunt weapon and had glven him a gash, which was dangerously near Lis jugular, and was with a big butcher knife which was afterward found near the scene of the holdup. Ansord says that he can identify the men and gave the police a good descrip- tion of them. .

All milkmen who have not taken out a license will be arrested and steps taken to compel the dairymen whose premises are in an un- cleanly condition to clean them up at once. Most of the milkmen who are charged wiih the use of brewery slop are located in what 1s known as the Iowa strip and seem to think that on that account they cannot be reached | by the Omaha authorities. These men will be served with written notices to quit feed. ing the slop and to clean up their premise If this is not obeyed they will be watched and arrested as soon as they cross the Ne- braska line with their loads of milk. The authorities cannot reach them at their barns, but they will not be allowed to bring milk to the city unless they conduct their establish- ments in accordance with the rules of the board, The Bulge Made Them Smile, Speculators In grain at Omaha are all happy. They have been firm believers In crop damage reports, while Chicago oper- ators have failed to realize the full extent of the damage.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDN SDAY, AUGUST 8, 1894, DISORDER AT SOUTH OMAHA Day Filled with Fights Between Strikers and Workmen in the Packing Houces, SITUATION CAUSES MUCH UNEASINESS en Who Have Gone to Work Subjected to Intimidation and Violence - Sheriff Drexel Will Send © More Deputies this Morning. pwn Intimidation of the workmen in the pack- ing houses at South Omaha has reached such A stage that it is no longer a matter that can be overlooked by the authorities, and it 18 Iikely that the mayor will have on a force of men this morning that will be equal to the situation There were a number of rows last evening as the men proceeded home from their work, but so far as was reported to the police no person was seriously injured. The streets were crowded until midnight. About 5 o'clock in the afternoon there was a riot over on “Indidh Hill" Clubs were used freely and revolvers were drawn. Workmen from the packing houses were on their way home when they were stopped by the men who had gone out. A fight ensued and the strikers would have won if it had not been for a number of the stock yards gang, who happened to be up that way hav- ing a horse race. The strikers were casily put to flight by this gang. Nearly 200 of the men who are out were on lower Q street when this trouble cccurred and many of them wanted to go to the scene of action. The dummy train which carries employes of the packing houses to Omaha was stoned when leaving the depot and several occupants were struck and injured. At Twenty-seventh and N streets at 5:30 o'clock three Italians passed on their way home from work, when the crowd began to hoot at them and cried “scab.”” One of the trio drew a_revolver, and they then moved slowly up the street followed by hoodlums and the crowd. At Twenty-fifth street they were again surrounded by strikers. One of the other men drew a large knife, whicl he swung recklessly in the air, and was given all the space he wanted. The strikers shied bricks at the trio, but no person was hit, and the men took a motor train to Omaha. One man has secured warrants for the arrest of men who held him up on the street and took his packing house keys from him. POLICE KEPT BUSY. Tho police were kept busy all evening gathering in men who had committed assaults. A number of warrants have been issued for the arrest of the assallants, Sheriff Drexel was in the city last even- ing, and sald he would put on enough deputies to keep the peace today. If that does not prove sufficient the militia will be called out, he says. RUNNING FULL TIME. All the packing houses were running yes- terday with about the same force they had Monday. x The picket line of the strikers covers an entire circle around the packing houses Every man who s seen going to work is halted and requested not to cnter the hous If the fellow persists in going to the pack- ing house he is liable to be assaulted. The trade in revolvers has been rushing for the last week. Permits have been fssued to many of the men to carry guns, and each day the situation grows more seri- ous. “We must have better police pro- tection,” said Manager Cudahy. ~“The men who want to work are assaulted both going to and coming from the house. We ought to have at least 200 specials for a while until this excitement abates.” FRENCHMAN'S PLAN WORKED. One large Bohemlan, who lives in Brown Park, was stopped by one of the strikers yesterday while on his way to work. A few words passed between them, when the striker demanded that the man should not g0 to work. A fight ensued, when the striker was worsted and the Bohemian went his way. A Frenchman, living in_the Fourth ward, who was anxious to go back to work but was afrail he would be as- saulted if he did, rigged himself out in a novel way and passed through the picket lines without being detected. He dressed himself in one of his wife’s gowns, and ac- companied by her the pair walked into the plant without any questions being asked. The Frenchman is now at work, but he does not go home in the evening. Anthony Franks, a man employed at Cud- ahy's, says he was pursued by strikers Mon- day evening and fired at five times. He did not stop running until he got home. Franks lives in_ Albright. “Windy” Kelley was given a chase through the tracks Monday evening. Kelley works at Cudahy’s in the hog department. The executive committeaof the strikers disclaims any knowl:dge of assaults com- mitted by the union men. They claim that all the men who went out are given strike orders not to create any disturbance what- ever. The committee has chosen fifteen citizens and will ask Mayor Johnston to swear them- in as speclal policemen. The committee also petitioned the mayor and council not to employ any men for speclals wha. do mot live in the city. The packers still claim that many more of their old men want to come back to work, but are afraid to do so for fear they will be assaulted. TR Thief Wik with Him, An unexpected thing happened at the city jnil last evening when John Roper and his nephew, Harry Drown, called to report the loss of a suit of clothes. Mr. Roper was de- scribing the clothing to Detective Savage when a peculiar look in Brown's face al- tracted the detective's attention. Brown was taken aside and after a brief conference with' Savage confessed to having stolen his uncle's clothes, which he shipped to Kansas City by oxpress. The property was recovered from the express company. Roper was dum- founded when he loagned that his nephew was the thief. 2l A dee WEATHER FORE: 0 Fair Weather for Nebraska and Cooler in the Northern Portio WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—The indications for Wednesday are: For Nebraska—Fair; cooler in the north- ern port south hecoming west For Io nd Mis outh winds.

The Swedish-American Garfield club held an enthusfastic meeting in the rooms of the Hamilton club Iust evening, both rooms being crowded with the members present. The club last evening admitted seventy-six members, swelling the total membership to 0. It was unanimously resolved to se the total membership to 1,000 within the next two or three weeks. A committee of two, Messrs, Bergstrom and Norberg, was appointed to act with the reception committec for the entertainment of delegates to the state convention to be held in this city on August 22. The execu- tive committee was also instructed to en- gage a large hall for the use of the club. Some rousing meetings are anticipated in the campaign. Speeches were made by Messrs, Bergstrom, Norberg, Burman, Johnson and others, all enthusiastic regarding the suc- c2ss of the republican party at the coming election, Later in the evening it was learned that J. H. MacColl was in the city. A commit- tee_was at once sent to the hotel to extend to Mr. MacColl an invitation to call at the olub rooms. Mr. MacColl made his appear- ance with the committee and was warmly received. He thanked the members of the club for their courtesy, but declined to spesk, owing to the latencss of the hour. Briet ‘addresses were made by Messrs. War- ing, Neuman and Jones of the Hamilton club.

How Mr. for xplains s Arrest Eubezzleme Yesterday afternoon William F. Sears, secretary of the Provident Savings, Loan and Building association, caused the arrest of John Evers, alleging embezzlement. No complaint has as yet been filed, and the chances are that none will be. Mr. Sears declined to talk about the affair and ap- peared to be considerabiy more worried thah the prisoner. Evers stated his case plainly and with- out hesitation. He sald that the arrest was a mistake and that it would all be fixed up in a short time. He says he sold some prop- orty for the company and received a check for §2,000. After getting the check he went home instead of returning to the office. Sears became anxious and caused the arrest. Evers is confident that the matter will be sottled out of court. ULOUS WORK, UNSCRU] CALLAWAY, Neb,, Aug. 6.—To the Editor of The Bee: As a republican who has the best interests of the party at heart, I am glad to note that The Bee has the courage to come out boldly and openly in opposition to the nomination of such a man as Tom Majors for governor on the ticket of that party. At least three-fourths of the people of Custer county demand the nomination of Jack MacColl, yet Custer county's delegation will go to the state convention with a dele- gation two to one for Majors. This result was brought about by the un- scrupulous work of Majors' cappers, who worked the county for weeks prior to the county convention and who manipulated that convention in such a scandalous manner as to disgust scores of honest members of the party. One of the leading Majors cappers of this county is a notorious gambler and another is a thief upon his own confession, now awaiting a trial for embezzlement. Is it any wonder that good republicans threaten to bolt the party if this man Majors is forced upon them and to vote for such a man as Judge Holcomb, should he be nomi- nated by the populists?

The drouth in the corn belt was unchecked. The weather bureau | showed no signs of relief from the blister- Ing winds that are sweeping over western corn flelds, withering the growth and de- stroying the crop, and excited brokers clus- about the corn pit eager to buy. At the tap of the bell a wild struggle for hold- ings began. Shorts were frantic, and at every Jump in the price with its consequent losses to them fought more fiercely for cover. Before 10 o'clock corn had gone up 7 cents In long and sensational jumps and wheat, with its heavy load of bearish in- fluences, had struggled 2%c up the scale, The visitors' gallery was soon filled with spectators who climbed upon the seats and leaned over the railings watching the yel- ling, howling mob of speculators on the floor. ~ Holders with visions of sudden wealth held on to their grain until offerings were as scarce as rains, and shorts with visions ‘of equally sudden disaster grew wilder as the session advanced. The mar- ket which a few weeks ago had no bottom now seemingly had no top and, passing wheat, corn continued in an advance that has seldom been equaled on the Chicago board for sensational featur The raging bullish features, of course were the hot, dry winds sweeping acro the already parched corn fields; the pub- lished official reports that cver a large sec- tion of Nebraska the farmers would not rai enough corn to keep them from starving; the extremely bullish Towa crop report pul- ling the crop prospects even lower than the speculators had guessed it, and the fact that corn in Liverpool was reported 2d higher. The trading in corn from the start was of the wildest description, the shorts strug- gling to snap up whatever was offered tha could be got at, regardless of previous prices or prices in other parts of the pit from that In which he was endeavoring with might and main to lift himself out of the financlal hole into which his previous sales had plunged him. As a_consequence, the open- ing price for September corn was anywhere between 54%c and 58c, in different parts of the pit, against 53%c at the close yesterday, and by jumps of halves and cents the price quickly advanced to 60c, or 6%c above yes- terday’s last figurss. Then it as suddenly plunged down to 58c, sold at a bound to Gbe, then to 60c. This gait, of course, could not last, and the most urgent of the shorts having waded ashore, the strain eased somewhat. The price sank at first by cents and halves, with an occasional slight reaction, until at 10 a. m. it was quoted at 55%5. May corn opened anywhere from 50% to 5214c, against 48%c at the close yesterday and advanced to 53%, or a clean advance of 5, breaking off later to 49%c. Wheat struggled to keep up with corn. September opened at 55le@i5%c, against 54%c at the close yesterday, and advanced to 53%c, a gain of 2%c over yesterday's figures, and at 10:35 a. m. was selling at 557 @ 56c.
