WEIR'S CHANGE OF HEART Lincoln's Mayor Gives His Impression of the | Late Landslide. - ACTS IN ACCORD WITH HIS CONV.CTIONS ©Ordinanes Passed by the Republican City Lounell Signed by the Municipal Ex- ecutive in Order to Be in Line with the Late Decisioa. LINCOLN, Nov. 15.—(Special.)—Today a delegation from the Lincoln Labor elub waited upon Mayor Welr to protest agalnst a certain stroet car ordinance which passed the coun- ¢l Monday night. The ordinance virtually inoreagss sireet car fare, as under it no more | tiokets will be sold at the rate of six for a quarter. The delegation say that Mayor * Welr-gave them to understand that he would gall the council's attention to their protest, and say that they asked for its reconsidera- tlon. This afternoon the mayor sent the ordinance to the city clerk's office with his signature attached and accompanied by a mossage. In this latter document Mayor ‘Welr says that it he had followed the course heretofore outlined in his action on such questions he should have vetoed the ordi- | nance. But in view of the results of the recent election, he says, he Is compelled to rocognize an apparent great change in public sentiment, and adds: 1 make no reference to my personal in- torests, though the fact is evident that my vvork received but slight endorsement from the people of the city, Since I have dug my way from under the snow banks that overwhelmed me 1 find the republican prin- <iples and sentiments and interests are atrongly and powerfully predominant, * * ¢ 1 need not clucidate this point further. I Fecognize the people who with one mighty Yoice have demanded republican control, and 1 bow In submission to their will. They de- | mand republican medicine and 1 do not feel | it my duty to cork the bottle from which it | 1% to be administered to them. In conclusion the mayor prowptel by a desire to carry into effect tle legitimate results of the late election, and in view of the fact that tiie ordinance is a republican measure formed by a repub- lican legislative body, he fecls constrained 10 approve it. The message has created con- siderable of a stir in Lincoln and no little amount of heated argument. Mayor Weir was a cindidate for congress in the recent electlon, running against Judge Strode.

VALLEY, Neb., Nov. 1 pecial.) bert Mullendoore and Mrs. Emma Foster were married by Judge Watts at Waterloo Tuesday. Many readers of The Hee will remember Mr, Mullendoore. During the open- ing of the Oklahoma lands, more than a year ago, Mr. Mullendoore was one of the many who left his wife and children and went to tho new lands to make a fortune. After re- maining there for six months Mr. Mullen- doore concluded he wanted to see his wife and children, who resided at that time four miles north of Valley. With the fond hope of once more dwelling with his wite, and loaded down with presents for the children, Mr. Mullendoore left the promised Oklahoma and came back to Douglas county. When he arrived at Valley he was informed by a friend of the changed condition of things at the old home he loved so well. He was told that his wife, Lizzie, was infatuated with a man by the name of Daniel Morton and that she had no further use for him, and that he should go elsewhere. Mullendoore did not believe these utterances concerning his wife and determined to see her at once or die in the attempt. It was with great difficulty, however, that he reached her and found everything only too true, Mr. Mullendoore gave everything he had (a farm of eighty acres), to his wife and chil- dren and took up his residence at other quar- ters,. No compromise could be reached which would bring the two together again and last March Mr. Mullendoore was granted a divorce. The marriage of Mr. Mullendoore to Mrs. Emma Foster Tuesday evening was a great surprise to the people of this community. Mrs. Foster has just recently got a divorce trom her husband, Dr. J. T. Foster, of Water- 100, The newly married couple will make their tuture home in Valley. ALLEGED BANDIT CAPTURED.

Rullng I an Fast St Louls Gambling Transaction by Judge Wyait. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 15.—A decision has been rendered by an East St. Louls justice of the peace which, If sustained by the higher courts, will knock out bookmaking and rave tracks throughout the state of Illinois, and possibly in many other states. The ruling was made in a suit Instituted in Justice Jantes Wyatt's court in East St. Louls by H. B. Barnes. Barnes clalms to have lost $184 at the East Side track during October, 1894 When the case was tried he produced losing tickets representing the amount he claimed to have lost and succeeded in convincing the judge of the truth of his stutement, where- upon a decision was rendered in his favor. The defendants offered no witnesses to dis- prove the truth of his statemes: and, aside from contending that they bad a right to keep money won from the public on the grounds that the public wouil keep money won from them, they made no defense what- ever. Judge Wyatt said that his decision in the case was strictly in compliance with the statule governing such cases, which defines clearly that a person upon proving that he has lost an amount equal to or more than $10 upon any gambling device whatever can oblaln full amount iost from ihe parties receiving the same and if not from them, from the lessees or owncra nf the property upon which such games were conducted.

DIFFICULT TASK TO SECURE ‘A JURY Review of the Cireumstances of the Tragedy —Number of Different Stories Told by the Prisoner—Confessions Made and Retracted. The criminal section of the district court Possessed the drawing card yesterday, and trom morning until night the room was erowded to suffocation by men and women drawn thither to listen to the testimony In the case wherein Sam Payne, a colored man, Is charged with the murder of Maud Rubel, the daughter of John Rubel of South Omaha. Maud Rubel was 16 years of age, and for some time prior to her death she had led rather a wayward life, associating with per- sons who were not quite up to the regulation standard of morality, She had frequently been to Courtland beach and other resorts with men and women of bad repute, dolng 0 without the knowledge or consent of her parents, both of whom had protested, but in vain, One day In the latter part of last May she came to this city and was seen at Courtland beach in company with ‘Doc” Brown, an individual who was operating a cane rack and shooting gallery at th.. resort. That was in the evening, and the next day she was reported missing. Four days later the body of a young woman was found by Officer Heelan In the rear room of a dilapidated two-story brick building at 806 South Tenth street, under the viaduct. The officer was led to investigate the premises by tho stench noticed both by pas- sengers over the Tenth street viaduct and by residents in the vicinity. The second floor was unoccupled. The upstairs rooms were reached by a flight of steps outside. The room In which the body was found was a small one, and containea no furniture whatever. The body was lying on its back, with the head against the wall. Neither tho hat nor the sLoes which the girl wore were to be found. The skirt of the brown dress in which her mother had last seen her was pulled up over the head, and the general appearance of the body was such as to Indi- cate that the girl, when death came, was In terrible convulsions. The face was as black as a negro's from mortification, and the whole body was discolored, though not to the samge degree, by the same cause. The remains were removed to the morgue. It was at once surmised from the dress that the body was that of Maud Rubel, although it was impossible from the features to iden- tify it by the description that had been given. As soon as the find was made known triends of Mr. apd Mrs. Rubel came up from South Owaba td see the body. Mr. W. H. Genter, who had known the girl for some time, sald he .did not think the remains were thoso of Miss Rubel, but that he might be mistaken, as they were in such condition that identification would be difficult. The next to call was Mr. W. A. Sloan, from South Omaha, a cousin of Miss Rubel, He said that he was positive the remains were those of Miss Rubel. He took the clothes to Mrs. Rubel, and when she saw them she became almost in- sane. At once she sald that they belonged to her daughter. She even told of the little embroidery work on the hem of the skirt as that worked by her daughter. Mr. Rubel reiterated the stafement of his wife. Later the parents came up to Omaha and visited the morgue, but they ylelded to the impor- tunity of the coroner not to view the body on account of its ghastly condition. RESULT OF AUTOPSY. An autopsy was performed by Dr. Chad- wick. The result was that he found death to have resulted from concussion of. the brain. He sald there were indications of violence near the base of the brain right over the left ear. He sald this might have been caused by a fall, but there were Indi- cations that a blow had been strugk. At the base of the brain were found Several clots of blood. If it was a blow Dr. Chadwick was of the opinion that it had been dealt with sandbag. There was a slight abrasion, but there were several of these on different parts of the body, and he was of the -opinion that this fact would not be material in determin- ing the cause of her death. The police at once took hold of the case and Detectives Savage and Dempsey and Captain Mostyn made the investigation. It was learned that Dr. Brown had removed his belongings to 1403 South Eleventh street. Inquiry the: however, failed to find any one at home. Here he had a couple of trunks and other effects. Mr. and Mrs. Rubel said their daughter had several rings when she left home, among them a diamond, which ‘was given her by Dr. Putgam. Another stngular circumstance was the ap- pearanco of the stockings found on the dead girl. They seemed to be perfectly mew as it just taken out of the merchant's box, and were free from dust on the soles, while the floor of the room was very dirty. The in- ference was that the murderer for some reason placed the stockings on after the girl was dead. The only thing found in the room were a shoe and a horseshoe. The horseshoe at first excited some interest, as it was looked upon as possibly the means by which the death was caused. It, however, bore no marks of blood. The rings Maud Rubel wore and which were missing when her body was discovered were found and identified by the parents. These things were recovered in the house occupled by the woman who passed as the wife of Sam Payne, the negro who last oc- cupled the apartments at 806 South Tenth street, Information had been received that Mrs, #ayne had shown the rings to a meighbor with the explanation that they had been given to her by a white man, who, she said, was stuck on her. When visited by officers Mrs. Payte reluctantly produced the rings, and after being taken to jall she sald the slippers could be found in a pile of bed cloth- ing in a part of the house which she indi- cated. Suspiclon pointed to Payne as the guilty party, and when a search was made, It was discovered that he had fled, going to Mystic, Ia, where he was subsequently arrested After having been brought back, he made several confessions, claiming that he had been Instrumental in killing the girl, though later on he denied that he knew anything concerning the affair. “Dog” Brown was also arrested, but as there was nothing to establish his guilt, he was subsequently released, In court the entire day yesterday was con- sumed in trying to secure a fury. This Is a diMeult task, as nearly all the men called bave read or have formed an opinion re- garding the merits of the case. It is possible that a jury may be empaneled today, Court Cullings, The fury In the criminal court has re- turned a_verdict, finding Madison Mill- borne and Louis Brown guilty of burglary.

EARL Omaha and Eastern Fruit Dealers Declare He is Doing Them Injustice. PUBLISHING LETTERS TO THEIR INJURY Patting Them in a ¥False Light Beforo the Californin Growers—Loeal Jobber Polnts Out the Misrepresenta~ tions Made. E. T. Earl of the Earl Fruit company has published a letter over his own name in the Sacramento Record Union that whole- sale fruit dealers in Omaha are taking strong exceptions to. Under the pretense of writing a letter of encouragement to the promoters of a bureau of information for California fruit shippers, Mr. Earl makes a savage on- slaught upon the closed fruit auction houses. Mr. Earl says: “The closed auction, in my opinion, 18 doing more to injure the sale of Californfa fruits in eastern markets than arything else. Chicago is the principal mar- ket for California fruits, and unfortunately a large portion of the fruit sold in Chicago is being sold in closed auction, where only a few favored firms are allowed to buy.” “This sort of talk is nothing more nor less than buncombe,” said an Omaha fruit Jjobber. “‘By the few favored firms Mr. Barl means the jobbers and wholesale dealers in fruit, the men whose energy and enterprise has carried California fruit into almost every corner of the union, until even the smail country store must have a regular supply.” Mr. Earl continues: *“The production of California fruits is increasing so rapidly that everything possible should be done to develop new dealers in the varlous eastern markets, and to this end it is very Important that the auction should be absolutely free and open for any one who wishes to buy and handle California fruits. My observa- tion is that small dealers who start with a push-cart or corper fruit stand gradually develop into wholesale dealers if they are allowed to patronize the auction room." “I would like to know,” continued the job- ber, “who made it pogsible for Californians | to increase their trilit production. The whole- sale dealers who hiivé worked up a demand for fruit In every) ¢ity and hamlet in the land, or the menwilh the push-cart who sit around waiting for the frult to soften that they may buy it:at a less price? Mr. Earl wants the ‘pugh-éart man admitted to the auction and ‘giyen every privilege of tho large wholesalg (¢aler, Does Mr. Barl pretend to say that, hecause the small retall dry goods dealer ,somptimes develops into a wholesaler, the importing houses of New York should give imrthe same terms that are granted the man.who is already in the wholesale business? /! IN THE KILLING BUSINESS. “Mr. Earl writes wsilf he wanted to kill oft the wholesaler, wifli“his long list of coun- try customers, and tirn the business over to the man with the push-cart, whose trade Is limited to & few passersby, aud he is sur- prised that Californians are not more inter- ested with him." Mr. Earl goes on to say that the Kansas City Auction company. has recently Inaugu- rated a closed auction, and that he imme- diately wired his manager at that point to sell no more truit ction. Mr. Earl con- tinues: “‘The auction Minneapolls 1s a closed auction, and we have been compelled to sell fruit through this auction, as there Is no other established suction at Minneapo- “Phis closed auction at Minneapolis is really too bad," said the’ jobber, “and Mr. Earl would have Californians belleve that he ets It very much, but neglects to mention that his manager at that point Is the high- muck-a-muck of the auction company, and that he and Porter Bros. man are the prime movers in the wholo business. But listen to understand the auction of Omaha is also practically a closed auctlon.” “Mr. Earl does not understand anything of the kind, or if he does, his understanding is badly out of repair. He has been informed as to the character of the auction sales held at Omaha, and copies of the rules and regu- lations have been mailed to him. The auc- tion at Omaha has been open to any one who wished to buy. Wholesale dealers, retail dealers and Mr. Earl's pet push-cart foen have all had an equal show to bid on every- thing offered for sale. “The fact of the matter is that Mr. Earl teels that he must do something to impress upon California fruit growers his great solic- ftude for their welfare, and he can think of no other way than to get after the wholesale fruit men of the east. If Mr. Earl is reaily desirous of benefiting the fruit Interests of Salifornia it would be far better if he would put commission men and wholesalers in the right light before the growers, and try to create a feeling of confidence between producer and seller. No system has yet been devied that will do away with the middle man, the distributor, who comes between the producer and consumer, and until such a system Is devised it is very poor policy for any man to try to create bad blood between grower and seller when only selfish motives are to be attained by such a mov e Oregon Kldney Tea cures nervous head- aches.
