UNCIL BLUFFS NEWS FROM (0 Corporation Corruption in the Pres nt Jury 8ystem Oausing Trouble, LAWYERS WAITING FOR THE NEW LAW They Claim that at Present it Ia a Difficult | Matter to Exclude the Professional Jurymen from the Box The fact that a new ystem of drawing Juries goes iInto effect after January 1, 1895, will probably result in very few corporation cases of any great importance being tried in the district court here at the next term, which begins on Tuesday. Two attorneys who represent the plaintiffe in suits against railway compenies and the like have agreed to postpone, if possible, the sults of this nature with which they are con- d until atter next term, and they give as their reason the fact that it is next to impossible under the present system to ex- clude from the jury box every man who Is Interested In the welfare of the corporations The new system will do away with profes slonal jurors so far as any system can that has so far been devised, inasmuch as the power of selecting jurors is taken entirely away from Judges of election, court officials and every one else, and the selection is made by lot, the names of all eligible citizens of the county being drawn from. It will b much more difficult to spring a ‘“loade | Jury.

MISS BRYANT GETS 84,000, ase Agalnst the Motor In Favor of the PluntifT. The jJury In the case of Maude Bryant against the motor company for $20,000 dam- ages concluded to render a verdict yester- day morning at 9:30 o'clock, contrary to the expectations of a great many people who had watched with Interest their long fight among themselves. At 6 o'clock Monday evening the case went to the jury, and it was just sixty-three hours later when the foreman handed the verdict to Judge Macy. It was for the plaintiff, and the amount given her was $4,000. An appeal will be taken to the supreme court, as the attorneys for the com- pany claim the amount to be far In excess of what is due. Reports that Company Results come from inside the jury room indcate that there was a hot fight among the members. One juror voted against giving her more than §800. Some of the others wanted to go as high as $15,- 000. One of the jurors is authority for the statement that Miss Bryant could have had a verdict for $6,000 had it not besn for two of them. A compromise was finally entered into, however, by which she was given $4,000. Rubbers are the all-absorbing topic now- adays, and Duncan sells chem cheapest of them all.

Celebrated Hallowe'en, A party of girls and young men asslsted All Souls’ night in the task of making itself generally disagreeable. The girls live on Seventh street, near the corner of First ave- nue, while the young men are neighbors of theirs.. They spent the night in tearing down fences, pulling off gates, and even tip- ping outhouses over. In some way, known only to themselves, they managed to climb to the roof of C. R. Hannan's barn, carry- ing with them a big arm chair that stood on the porch of Deputy United States Marshal Bradley. At the residence of Wes Jackson, on First avenue, they climbed on a wood pile and tipped an outhouse over. Jackson heard the noise and rushed out very much en dishabille. His appearance would have been enough to frighten away the intruders, but when he called to the boy to bring him his gun, they set a pace over the neighbor- ing fences that has rarely been excelled. A lot of empty beer kegs were piled up on the Christian church steps. A pile of boxes, fences and other obstructions was made at the corner of Fourth and Story streets, com- pletely blockading the street, but fortunately no damage resulted. Perhaps the most vicious act that has been reported was at the corner of Broadway and First streets, where some one covered the motor trac with re- fuse, which would probably caused an accldent had it not been discovered and warn- ing given before a train attempted to pass, Curlo’ The public is Invited to come to the Broad- way Methodist Episcopal church this evening to the Curlo Display given by the ladies.

W, Nov. 1.—The Union line steamer Weiraipa, bound from this port for Auckland, N. Z., was wrecked Sunday evening on Great Barrier island, off the northeast coast of New Zealand. The steamer had a large number of passengers, and 111 of them were drowned. The night was very dark and the officers and lookout on the steamer were ignorant of the proximity of land until the steamer struck on the rocks. Captain McIntosh, the master of the Welral was on the bridge at the time. He, together with most of the crew, were lost. The was rough when the steamer went aground. Attempts were , but several sea by the sea against the side of the steamer before the falls were cast off or were capsized before they could be laid head-on to the sea. Everybody in the boats perished. Those re- maining on board refused to attempt to es- cape this way. In the meantime had gone to the the people on the shore assistance of the ship- wrecked people. The steamer had two or three life rafts and these were thrown over- board and attached to the vessel by stout lines, Then some of the passengers scram- bled down the side by the aid of ropes and dropped upon the rafts, which were then cut loose. They drifted rapidly in shore and the people on them were taken off when they came in reach by men who went out in the water as far as possible to meet them. A line was finally_thrown across the steamer and the breeches buoy rigged. A number of lives were saved by this means. Altogether 111 of the passengers and twenty-three of the crew were drowned. The survivors have arrived at Auckland. Lloyd's agent here confirms the statement previously cabled to the Associated press that 111 passengers and twenty-three of the crew of the Unlon line steamer Welraipa were drowned n the wreck of that vessel on the coast of New Zealand, AUCKLAND, N. Z, Nov. 1.—The Weir- alpa struck at midnight during heavy weather and when a heavy sea was running. Some of the survivors have arrived here. They say that they were aroused from their sleep by the shock and rushed in terror upon the deck, where life belts were served out and preparations made to lower the boats. The women passengers and children were firet placed in the boats but several of the boats were capsized while being lowered. The crew then set to work constructing rafts and ran a line ashore with great difficulty. With the aid of & sort of a breeches buoy they succeeded In rescuing a number of peo- ple who would otherwise have been drowned When the passengers saw 'the danger in which they were placed many pathetic and heartrending scenes werg wjtnessed, espec- lally between husbands and wives and par- ents and their children.., But there was no panic. 1t was with the greate#t difficulty that the boats were launched as heavy 'seas were con- tinually breaking over the vessel, which was s00ms submerged, thus rendering the work of rescue more dificult than ever. The life rafts were cut adrift, and by means of them many wore saved. Others clung to impro- vised rafts until rescued from the water. When the passengers rushed on deck many of them sought refuge on the bridge of the steamship until heavy seas swept & number, of them overboard and caused those who were unable to find places in the hoats or on the rafts to escape to the rigging, where they remained untll daybreak. There is no doubt {hat many more paseen- gers would have been drowned had it not been for the gallantry of two seamen who swam ashore with a line by means of which & stout rope, which was used later on in the rescue, was hauled ashore. Nearly all the survivors reached the shore in tho scantiest of clothing. Some of them remained on the rocks for thirty hours, subsisting on oranges, which were washed ashore from the wreck. When the disaster became known to the Maoris on land, these natives launched their 1 boats and sucreeded in rescuing a num- er®of people. Assistance was finally ob- tained from Port Fitzroy and the survivors of the Welralpa were brought here. The survivors of the disaster tell thrilling stories of the wreck. Second Officer Stark says a thick fog set in at noon Sunday, ob- scuring everything. ~ The course of the steamer had been lald so she would clear Hen and Chicken island, when, at midnight, she struck on Great Barrler island. The shock of them stranding awakened the passengers, and many of them rushed from thelr cabins on deck in their night clothing. The sea was then making a clean breach over the after part of the steamer, and as the affrighted passengers came on deck many of them were carried overboard before they had a chance to catch hold of anything to save themselves. ~ When daylight came it was found the steamer had struck at the foot of a high clifl that loomed several hundred feet above the vessel. To effect a landing on the shelving places of the cliff was a most difficult and dangerous undertaking. e BURLINGTON WILL MEET ALL. Willing to Put Mall and Express Into Omaha as Early as Any Road. A representative of the Burlington sys- tem relative to better mall service yesterday said: “The business man quoted in The Bee this morning is very much mistaken when he says that Norfolk, Fre- mont and Lincoln receive their mail in time for afternoon answering. Lincoln receives its mail from the east through the North- western train at 5:20 p. m., Norfolk at 6:35 p. m. and Fremont at 4 p. m., by no means in time to answer the same night. The Burlington las the government contract, it fs true, but is giving Omaha, Lincoln and all the towns of the state a service that cannot be duplicated by any other road. As for Miesouri Valley and Blair recelving their mail before Omaha I don’t know that it cuts much figure, for I have nmever heard that Blair or Missourl Valley were commerclal competitors of Omaha or Lincoln. “Whenever (he Northwestern down to business , and a proposition for ', hauling the mails then the Burlington will be found ready to duplicate the_bid,.but under exist- Ing circumstances the Northwestern does not bring malil and express, into Omaha, Lincoln and other towns as sqon 4s the Burlington and as long as that condftion obtains it would be useless for us to change our time, which we can make without bing fined. The North western does not attempt to make a fast run stbound and the Burlinglon carries These are the conl tions and Omalia’ business men need not feel that they are 'béing discriminated against, in view of the fact that the North- western gets to Missourt Valley at 1:45 p. m.

The route from Boston 1o Chicago has not yet been deter- mined All the-western roads, both in and out the Western Passenger assoclation, have de- cided that this year they will make no re- duced rates for the clerks in the employ of the government at Washington who may wish 10 go (o their homes in the west to vote next The custom has been heretofore (o make a reduced rate for such clerks as wished to make the trip to their homes for the purpose of voting, but this year no such concession will be made by any of the west- ern roads.

PORTLAND, Ore, Nov. 1.—A morning | paper says: There is a very lively passenger rate war brewing in the metropolis of the northwest and transcontinental rates are tending toward demoralization about as rapidly as the representatives of the inter- ested lines can push them, the divorcement of the O. R. & N. from the Union Pacific making that line an independent factor with new policies; the entrance of the Great Northern under a trafc arrangement with the 0. R. & N.; the establishment of new offices with a large and efficient force by the Union Pacific, and the completion of the Burlington to Billings, followed by the open- ing for through business in connection with | the Northern Pacific, have all been factors leading up to the changed conditions out of which the passenger rate war is surely grow- ing. No open cuts over the counters of the local offices are reliably reported, but cuts through brokers have been numerous and must continue while commissions are paid to the persons now receiving them Assistant General Passenger Agent Payne |ot the Unlon Pacific, when asked relative to the report above, stated that the paper | probably knew more than he did about the | situation, but thought there was absolutely | nothing ‘in the rumor. “I think 1 would have heard something about demoralization | in rates If there was any, in view of the | fact that Mr. Lomax is still in Portland | but not having heard anything 1 imagine it | 18 largely sensational.’ Milwaukee Will Change Time.
