QUARREL GF BUSINESS MEN M. 0.Gray of Orete and W, H. Austin of Kansas Involved. EACH CHARGES THE OTHER WITH FRAUD Governor Crounse Called Upon to Hear KEvidence the Case Before Grant- lng & Requisition for the Nebraska Man. LINCOLN. Nov. 26.—(Special)—Today Bherift 0'Connor of Emporia, Kan., made ap- plication at the governor's office for one M. C. Gray ci Crete, Neb, The application was made on behalf of W. H. Austin, a former partmer of Gray's at Empori who was arrsted a few days since on & charge of defrauding Gray out of property valued at $5,000. The trouble grew out of a partnership quarrel. Austin, who is now out on habeas corpus, attempts to turn the tables on his old partner, and there is likely to be a lively time over the matter. Austin makes about the same charge against Gray that the the latter preferred against Austin. Gray, it is understood, is now under arrest at Crete, | 1t 1s said that a hearing will be had before | Governor Crounse to inquire into the merits of the case and ascertain if the papers ought to be issued. A protest has been filed with the governor against their issue. Sheriff O'Connor is awaiting authority from home to employ counsel and fight for possession of the prisoner. The business formerly en- gaged in by the firm of Austin & Gray Bros. was importing blooded horses at Emporia.

In default of this fine they will spend about six months more in the institu- tion where they have already passed two months. The severity of the sentence was unexpected, as they had Imagined that thirty days would be about their size. Judge Tibbitts has appointed J. E. Phiepott and Alex Altschuler as attorneys to defend George W. Davis, the negro accused of wrecking the Rock Island train.

KEPT (IS COMMISSION, Queer Deal of a York County Broker In Land Transaction, YORK, Neb.,, Nov. 26.—(Special)—Several _cases were disposed of last week in the district court, now in seslon at this place. One of these was the case of Newman versus "Huffman, It seems that Huffman, who is a .real estate man of the firm of Huffman & Son, had a farm for sale that belonged to & party in Oregon. Huftman after some trouble, as he claims, found a purchaser for ‘the land. R. C. Newman, who was the man Who was to make the purchase, in order to show that he “meant business” deposited in the hands of Huffman the sum of $100 with the promise of the rest as soon as Huffman should furnish him with a deed to the land. Upon Investigation Huffman found that just prior to his deal with Newman. another party had sold the same land. When Newman called and demanded a deed Huffman stated that he had none to give, whereupon Newman demanded that ho be given back the $100. This Huffman refused to do, saying that he had earned his commlission and as this was the amount he was to receive he would keep it and that Newman should look elsewhere for his money. As a result Newman brought it against Huffman and the court rendered & verdict in favor of the plalntiff. The case was then appealed and the jury again found for the plaintiff.

W WASHINGTO! Postmaster General Bissell was in his office for a short time today and confirmed the statement transmitted to The Bee ten days g0, 10 the effect that a postmaster for Omaha will not be appointed until congress meets pext Monday. It is expected that the presi- dent’s annual message will be the only execu- tive document sent to congress on Monday, and that no nominations will be sent to the senate until Wednesday. The Omaha case is practically settled, and the nomination of ex- Governor Boyd is expected to be sent to the senate with the first batch of documents of that nature. Toblas Castor has been expected here for several days to look after the matter and hasten it, but he has not yet materialized. Secretary Morton will practically have charge of the matter. An old postal official today said: “There is nothing on filo yet to indicate the appointment of Governor Boyd. There is not a scrap of offlcial paper containing his name, but it is tacitly understood that he is to recelve the appointment. There is one personal letter here telling of the excellent services Governor Boyd done his party for many years and during the recent campaign, but that letter is not a recommendation for an appointment, I have no authority to tell you the name of the writer of the letter, but it probably means business.” The case has been lying on the postmaster general's table for some time, and was at one time taken to the white house, but while Postmaster General Bissell has been ill and is now a well man the president has rheu- matic gout, and is in no mood to bestow official favors. He is a constant sufferer and not prone to attend to business. DISPOSING OF MILITARY RESERV. There has been some speculation as to the manner in which the secretary of the interior will dispose of the abandoned military reserva- tions which have been turned over to him by an order issued by Secretary of War Lamont The act providing for the disposal of aban- doned military reservations approved July b, 1884, provides that the lands contained within the limits of the several reservations shall be divided into tracts of forty acres each, and that they shall be appraised by a commission, consisting of three disinterested men, ap- pointed by the secretary ot the interlor. These subdivisions are to be disposed of at public auction to the highest bidders at not less than the appraised value thereof, nor less than $1.25 per acre. Provision is, however, made that any settler who was in actual o cupation of any portion of these reservations prior to the location of the military post, or who settled thereon prior to January 1, 1884, in good faith, for the purpose of securing a home and of entering the same under the gen- eral laws, and who has continued in such oc- cupation to the present time, and is by law entitled to make his homestead entry, shall bo entitled to enter the lands so occupied, not exceeding 160 acres in a body, according to the govern- ment survey. This act also provides that the bulldings, improvements and building ma- terials shall be appraised and sold to the highest bidder at public sale in the same man- ner as the sale of the lands. For the perfect guidance of settlers upon these land which are soon to become available, thd e tre act of congress covering such land is herewith transmitted: An act providing = for abandoned ~and useless tions. Be it enacted by the senate and house of representatives in congress assembled that whenever in the opinion of the president of the United States the lands or any por- tion of them included within the limits of any military reservation heretofore or here- Qfier declared have become or shall become useless for military purposes he shall cause the same or so much thereof as he may designate to be placed under the control of the secretary of the interior for disposal as hereinafter provided, and shall cause to be filed with the secretary of the interlor a notice thereof. Sec. 2. That the secretary of the interior may, if in his opinion public interest so re- quirés, cause the sald lands or any thereof in sald reservations to be regularl surveyed or to be subdivided into tracts of less than forty acres each, and into town lots, or either, or both. He shall cause the saild lands to be surveyed and subdivided and each tract thereof to be appraised by three competent disinterested men, to be appointed by him, and who shall, “after having been duly sworn to impartiaily and faithfully execute the trust reposed in them, appraise the said lands, subdivisions and tracts, and each of them, and report themn proceedings to the secretary of the interior for his action thereon. If such appraise- ment be disapproved the secretary of the in- terior shall again cause the sald lands to be appraised as before provided, and when the appraisements have been approved he shall cause the said lands, subdivisions and lots to be sold at public sale to the highest bidder for cash, at not less than the a praised value thereof nor less than i per acre, first having given not less than sixty days’ public notice of the time, place and terms of sale Immediately prior to such sale by publication in at least two news- papers having a general circulation in_the country or section of the country where the lands to be sold are situate; and any lands, subdivisions or lots remaining un- sold may be reoffered for sale at any sub- sequent time in the same manner at the discretion of the & etary of the interior, and if not sold ot such second offering, for want of bidders, then the secretary of the in- terior may =ell the same at private sale for cash at not less than the appraised value nor less than $1.25 per acre, provide SETTLERS' RIGHTS PRESERV That any settler who was in ac pation of any portion of any such reserva- tions prior to the location of such resery. tion, or settled thereon prior to Januas 1, 1894, in good faith, for the purpose o curing a home and of entering the same under the general laws, and has continued in such occupation to the present time, and entitled by law to make his homestead shall be entitled to enter the lanas ceupied not exceeding 100 acres in a according to the government survey subdivisions; provided further, thus ands were subject to entry under tne land laws at the time of their with- and provided further, that all pat- retofore {ssued and providing such ring any lands within the o von milltary reservation in the st ado declared by executive orde; August 8§ 1863, are hereby confirmed; the rights of all entrymen and settlers on sald reservation to acquire title under the homestead, pre-emption or timber _entri laws are 'hereby recognized and affirmed to the extent that would h: been at- tached had public lands been settled upon or enteres and such proportion of sald res- crvations as have rot been entered or set- tied upon as aforesaid shall be disposed of Ly the secretary of the interior and the provisions of this act, including lands that may be opened to setilers or entrymen, DISPOSING OF THE BUILDINGS. Sec. ‘3. That the secretary of the Interior shall’ cause any improvements, buildings, bullding materials or other property which may be situated upon any such lands, sub- divisions or lots not heretofore sold by the United States authcrities to be appraised in the same manner as hereinbefore pro- vided for the pralsement of sa lands, subdivisions and lots, and shall cause the same, together with the tract or lot upon which they are situated, to be sold at pub- lic sale to the highest bidder for cash, at not less than the appraised value, and all such land and improvements, first giving the sixty days' notice as hereinbefore pro- vided; or he may, in his discretion, cause the improvements to be sold separately at public sale for cash at not less than tne appraised value, to be removed by tne purchaser within such time as prescribed, first giving the sixty days' notice before provided; and if in any case the lands and improvements, or the improvements separ- ately, as the case may be, are not sold for want' of bidders, then the secretary of the interior may, In his discretlon, cause tne same to be reoffered for sale at any subse- quent time in the same manner as above provided, or may cause the same to be sad at private sale for pot less than the ap- praised value; provided, that where build- ings or improvements have been heretofore sold by the United States authorities, the land upon which such buildings or improya. ments are situated not exceeding the small- est subdivisions or lots provided by this act upon the reservation on which such build- ings are situated, shall be offered for sale ) disposal of reserva- the military and’ DAILY LBl TUESDAY, NUVEMBER 27, 1804 HAYDEN BROS i)ross Go&ll, 1 a0 A lot of new shades, two-toned effects, brocaded, 36-in. suitings 35¢ goods, for Dress Goofls, These goods came.from the Ar- lington mills ayetipn sale, and for house or strect wear, being all desirable colbrs, navy blacks, ete, rogulitr 25c anc width, are’a bargain at 152 Imported |Novelty Suitings. | Mixtures, checks, brocades, im- 390 19¢ 16¢ ported tosell for 60c a yard, Dress Goods.

MISSOURI RIVER IMPROVEMENT. Captain H., F. Hodges, in charge of the improvement of the Missouri river above Sioux City, has submitted his report to the chief of engincers. With refergnce to the second ice harbor authorized by the river and harbor act of 1891 the report says: “The location was selected by the secretary of war under date of February 8, 1894. The place chosen was In the mouth of the Blg Sioux river, a locality which had been recommended by the cngineer department in June, 1891 Upon notification that the site had been selected a project for the work was prepared and sub- mitted under date of April 4, and approved April 19, 1894 This project contemplates the acquisition of a strip of land 2,720 feet long along the right bank of the river, the construction of a leves with a top above ex- treme high water, grading the bank to a suit- able slope, placing a mooring at convenlent intervals and grading an incline for hauling out boats. The sum of $17,725 was available for the construction work. Before the land [can be acquired the consent of the state of South Dakota {8 necessary. This cannot be obtained until the next meeting of the legis- lature in December, 1894. Until then no work can be done."” The report recommends that at Plerre the channel should be confined for a distance of seven miles in length, at a cost of §360,000. At Yankton the conditions have changed within the last year and are still changing o such an extent that a close estimate of the cost of the necessary work cannot be made. It must go at least four miles above the town to the site of the proposed railroad bridge, and should be extended for about cight and one-half miles. It will probably cost §450,000, IN A GENERAL WAY, Benjamin F. Philby was today commissioned postmaster at Oak, Neb. * The comptroller of the currency has been advised that C. H. Kalling has been elected cashier of the Nebraska National bank of York, Neb., in place of A. C. Ward, Maltreatment of Italisns During Riots at the Cause of Them. WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—Nothing is known officially heré af the reported trouble between Italy and Brazil, which is said to have reached a phasb so acute that Italy has threatened to send a flaet of war vessels to Brazil to enforce hop demands. But it Is known from unofficigl spurces that the two governments have baen at odds for nearly a year, owing to the' dsmand made by the Italian government ‘for indemnity for the maltreatmeat of a hupiber of Italian sub- jects and the destryct/on of their property in the course of riats at Rio. As nearly as can be gathered, Brasil has admitted some degree of accountability, and the question at izeus is one of the amount of indemnity rathor than of principle. From some sources it is learned that Italy is trying to brow- beat Brazil because of her weakened condi- tion, but from the last reports the new Brezillan government is in much better posi- tion to resist any unjust demands than has been generally supposed. Smail Arms Not WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—The naval small arms board has returned to Wash- ington from Newport, where has just completed a second series tests of small-bore rifles. ‘The guns tested were the Luger, a German gun, and the Durst, & California weapon, The latter broke down and was withdrawn. The Luger, from all reports, did better thau any gun yet examined. It is of the modified Mauser type atisfactory, it of 1o the purchaser of sald improvements and | and uses rimless ammunition. As the tests s0 far made have not satisfled the ordnance officers in all respects, it has been decided that another and more extensive competition will be held next March. PERU INCREASES DUTIES. Ralse Caused by the Necessity of Ral Money to Fight Revolutione. WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.—United States Minister McKenzie has notified the State depurtment that the government of Peru has issued two decrees affecting customs duties. One provides that. commercial and such other goods as are exempt from duty under article 1 of the act of December 31, 1888, shall pay hereafter a duty of 8 per cent ad valorem. Gold and silver bullion and coin and ammunition for the use of rifie or re- volver clubs remain exempt. The second decrce increases rates of duties on a large number of commodities, including agricul- tural and manufacturing machinery, hard- ware, furniture, hid brick, etc. The cause of this increase is found fin the necessity of raising money to suppress the revolution, and congress has clothed the president with almost unlimited power to ralse revenues. The Ecuadorean government has, for chari- table purposes, imposed a tax of b cents per quintal on sugar made in the country or imported, and an_import tax of 2 per cent on all foreign liquors, except wines. For the purposc of establishing a fund to be used for the construction of railroads, a tax of 10 cents per 100 kilos has been laid on all gold passing through the custom house for export or import; of 1 per cent on all money to be pald for freight or passage by seas; of 2 per cent on all money to be paid for insurance premiums outside of the coun- try; of 2 per <ent on bank dividends. United States Consul ‘Dawson, at alvador, has informed the Department of State that the provisional government of Salvador has required that all customs duties shall be paid in silver at 100 per cent ad valorem. Importers are permitted to pay 10 per cent In bonds at the custom house, and are obliged to pay 5 per cent in bonds of the “Salvadorean mint 1S A DANGEROUS ng San TERFEIT, nt Out the Defects of vered In Omaha. WASHINGTON, Nov. Attention s called to the most dangerous counterfeit that has made its appearance in years in a circular issued by the sccret service of the Treasury department today. It is a §2 United States silver certificate, series of 1891, signed by W, 8. Rosecrans, reglster; B. H. Nebeker, treasurer, and has the por- trait of the late Secretary Windom on its face. The general appearance of the note is excellent and will bear close scrutiny. It is about one-eighth of an inch larger than the genuine. The numbering, seal and lathe work are well executed. In the portrait of Windom the eyes appear to be larger than in the genuine, and have a bulged. look. The shading around the large figure “2" on left end, back of note, is represented in the counterfeit by perpendicular lines only, while in the genuine both perpendicular and horizontal lines are used, forming small squares. ‘The paper contains distributed silk threads, but the silk is heavier than in the genuine. e Ple crust made with Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is simply superb, - News for the Army.

Miss Marion Lea Paula -Mrs, Kendal One of the largest and beyond question the most representative audience of the season greeted Mr. and Mrs. Kendal at the Boyd last night. The bill was Pinero's play, “The Second Mrs. Tanqueray,” and it no doubt drew many who were curious to see if the play were really as objectionable as some of the east- ern papers have alleged. Its production has called forth a storm of moral indignation on the one hand, and as naturally created many defenders on the other. Whether it is good or pernicious in its tendencies and influences is one of those mooted questions that each auditor must decide for himself. Briefly told, the plot of the story is this: Mr. Tanqueray, who has been married to a cold, unresponsive pattern of virtue, finds self at his wife's death left with a daughter and lonclier than ever. He mar- ries accordingly a woman of doubtful repu- tation, trustisg that she will add color and comfort to life. The play shows tho gradual disintegration of this idle dream, The second Mrs. Tanqueray cannot support the ennui of respectability, and the final straw is the discovery that her step-daughter is to marry an old lover of hers. She solves the problem for herself at last by committing suicide. Mrs. Tanqueray is a part very from anything Mrs. Kendal attempted in this country. tion of the role has aroused much adverse criticlsm, to which she has given some sharp retorts, reflecting upon the American people. Conceived in fallacy, borne out by sophistry, written with skill ‘and performed with consummate ability, “The Second Mra. Tanqueray,” in the hands of the Kendals, i an intensely Interesting performance. The theme {s by no means elevating and smacks of the ‘“Forget Me Not" and “Crust of Soclety” flavor, yet it has an intensity marked of few dramas of recent years. The performance was a most artistic one Mrs. Kendal, in the title role, giving a faultless rendition of its many difficult and varied requirements. Whatever the merit of the play, thero could be no question of that of the artist, and the audience was completely captured by the many beautiful features of her portrayal. Mr. Kendal as Aubrey Tanqueray had splendid opportunity to display his high talent in the delineation of refined society roles. His work throughout was most ef- being of the kind that has won him ce as the representative English actor society dram The support of the Kendals 1s strong gnd cven, but far from brilliant. Miss Marion Lea plays the part of Ellean, daugh- ter of Tanqueray. She is a handsome girl and did effective work in the scenss with her stepmother, in which her convent-nur- tured nature instinetively rejects the proferred love of the woman whose White robe has caught a little dust around the hem, to put it mildly.
