THE OMAHA DAILY THURSDAY, JANUARY NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS | Obange of Managers in the Sharpless Oreamery Uompany. £XTRAVAGANCE THE ALLEGED CAUSE Lack of Attention to Detall Run Up the Experse Account to & Figare the Firm Cou'd Not Stand. John A. Carlisle, who has acted as man- aged for the Sharpless Creamery company of Westchester, Pa., In this city for several years past, has resigned his position, and for the present J. R. Comfort, the traveling auditor, 1s in charge. The ground upon which the change is made is that of mis- management. For several weeks past Mr. Comfort has been in the city and stopping at | the Grand, but the nature if his errand was & mystery to all outside parties. He has mado a thorough examination of the boo and states that Mr. Carlisle has spent $30,000 in keeping the business running this year, when half that sum should have sufficed. Ho makes no charge of financial crookedness, but ascribes the great expense connected with the business merely to a lack of attention to the dimes and shillings. Under Mr. Carlisle's management the firm did a large business in this city, the profits amounting to between $8,000 and $10,000 last year, and when he was on the road as a traveling sales- man he was very successful.

Ed Arnold, one of the smallest but best known horse racers in the country, died last Sunday in St. Louis, and his remains passed through Council Bluffs yesterday afternoon on their way to their last resting place in the Avoca cemetery. He was born in Avoca twenty-four years ago, and from riding racers at county fairs and the like he gradually spread out until he became fdenti- fled with the American Horsemen's asso- clation, and for the last three years he has been on no tracks but those of the national circuft. In 1891 he fell from a horse and sustained a fractured skull, several fractured r'bs and other injuries of less note. The following vear he had a bad accident in a race at St. Louis. Last August he fell from & horse in Kansas City and met with injuries from which he never fully recovered. His mother, Mrs. G. W. Arnold, who lives in Oakland, was with him when he died. His wife, mother and sister, Mrs. P. C. Kebble, were in the city yesterday with the body. Arnold was a dwarf and would not weigh more than ninety-five pounds. The funeral will take place at Avoca today. Held Up the Train. W. Creel, a conductor on the Omaha and Council Bluffs bridge motor line, was held up and relieved of his cash this morning about 12:30 o'clock. He was on the last train running from Omaha to the car house. He was In the rear car counting his money pre- paratory to making a_ fnal report at the car house. At Thirty-fourth street in this city a man entered the car, and coming up to Creel leveled a revolver at his breast and ordered him to “shell out”” Creel ploked up $2.90 off the seat and handed it to the highwayman, who darted out of the door and jumped from the train. The only other passenger in the car was a boy from Broken Bow, Neb. The whole thing was done so quickly that no one In the other car knew what had happened.

Tho case of William Rogers, charged with poker playing, was tried n Justice Walker’ court yesterday, but the state failed to make a case against him. Ofcer Weir and one other witness testifled that they heard oue of tho other players say to Rogers, “There is $5.10 worth,” but they saw no money change hands and were unable to swear that it was anything but a little friendly game of casino or old maid, excepting that the presence of a lot of poker chips seemed to be entirely unneccessary upon either of those hypotheses. Rogers was discharged for lack of evidence, and the cases against Reddy Ross and Charles Perrine were dismissed by the state. Bpecial Flour Sale This Week at C. 0. D. Browa's, Brown’s C. 0. D.

THIUGHT TO BE IN CENTRAL AMZRICA Indications that Ho Was Under Arrest In Memphis but Managed to Elude His Pursuers by a Very Come mon Huse. PIERRE, 8. D, Jan. 80.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The state officials have recelved enough Information to make reasonably cer tain the journey taken by Taylor follow- ing his disappearance. The last thing heard of him was at Chicago, where he consulted Lawyer Tenney on January &, as to the best method of escape. On the 10th he is known to have been in St. Louls where he conversed with a man named McCracken, and whence he left in the morn- Ing bound south, according to McCracken's story. Some days ago Colonel Bullard of this city received a letter from his son in the south saying he had met Taylor and his brother-in-law, Benedict, on the train going to Memphis, and that Taylor was roaring drunk, a condition which he usually culti- vated when under great excitement. Bul- lard wired for the date and his son named the 10th. The same cvening came a dis- patch from the chief of police of Memphis to the chief of this town, saying that T lor was under surveillance there. Then came a dispatch stating as the sus- pect was a negro he was allowed to go. It is interesting to state in this connection that there is a resident of Memphis who two or three years ago was connected with Taylor in business deals in this state, and who last month was also connected with him intimately in the sale of certain South Dakota property. This man is shrewd, and is thoroughly posted on the methods to pursue to get an apprehended fugitive out of the clutches of the law. OTHER TRACES OF TAYLOR. Three or four days after this came a letter from a detective in Pensacola, Fla., asking for the photograph of Taylor and his wife and stating that if the reward would be given he could preduce him. About the same time a letter reached a friend here written by Taylor and postmarked Pensacola. This has just come to light, together with the identity of the Memphis friend. 1t is now believed to be certain that Tay- lor and Benedict left Chicago together to go to Central America by way of Galveston cr New Orleans. Arriving in Memphis Taylor was arrested and sent for his friend, who secured his release. His appearance having gotten Into print, it was nece ry to alter plans, and he diverged eastward to Pensacola to conceal his tracks, thence taking a vessel to Key West, where he could go aboard one of the line steamers to Central Americ The detectives who have been on his tracks believe that they have located him and will soon meet him face to face, though he has doubtless been out of the country for two weeks. PROBING INTO TAYLOR'S AFFAIRS. The Investigating committee has devoted two sessions today to examining _Robert Moody, president of the Aberdeen National bank, and Cashier Humpbrey of the Redfield bank, They plied them with questions for two hours in the attempt to learn whether they knew that Taylor would default and flee, what property they owned in their banks and what they had done with their own property. They got very little satisfac- tion. So far the committee has devoted its energles apparently to getting evidence of use to the state in its suit against the bondsmen, but has made no effort to investi- gate the defalcation itself or the conduct of Taylor and his associates leading up to it. The profound secrecy of the committee still continues, sand there is no prospect of its Dreeking.. In the house today Mr. Reid of Campbell introduced a bill providing for the exemption from taxation for five years of all new lines of railroads. In the senate Mr. Wright in- troduced a bill raising the age of consent to 21 years. Bill No. 85, petitioning congress to admit settlers on the Sisseton and Wahpe- ton reservations to prove up under the home- stead act, passed. Two measures of consider- able importance to the people of the Black Hills came up in the legislature today. One was Mr. Hair's bill requiring stockmen to advertise the time and place of their spring roundup for four weeks prior to the event. This passed without opposition after a forci- ble presentation of the subject by the author. The bill introduced by Ammerman of Pen- nington county reducing the fees of the county commissioners of Pennington and Cus- ter from $5 to §3 was reported back favorably by the committee and will unquestionably pass within a few days. OPPOSED TO MORE BONDS. Wyoming Legislature Considering a Momo- rial to Congress Along that Line. CHEYENNE, Jan. 30.—(Special Telegram.) —A resolution was introduced today memorializing congress mot to issue any more gold bonds as proposed in the presi- dent’s special message, sent to congress on Monday The reasons given therefor are: “Believing that the proposed additional issue of bonds by the government is a movement on the part of New York bankers to force the country to a gold basis beyond the possibility of a change and drive the government from Its constitutional super- vision of the currency of the country, we most respectfully ask that the representa- tives In the national congress from the state of Wyoming protest against the is- suance of gold bonds or any bonds which would fasten a debt upon the people for generations to come. “We forther ask that our representatives use all honorable means to defeat the ad- ministration bill now before the banking and currency committee of the house of representatives.” The governor is requested to transmit a copy of the memorial to each of the senators and the congressmen from this state immediately upon its adoption by the legislature, Governor Richards this morning appointed Harry B. Henderson state examiner for a term of two years, to succeed himself. The nomination was sent to the senate and immediately confirmed by unanimous vote. Women Can Vote In Australia, CHICAGO, Jan. 30.—Word has just come from the president of the Women's Chris- tlan Temperance union, Mrs, Nichols, of Prospect, Adelaide, South Australia, that the adult suffrage bill has been carried, giv- ing all women the right to vote'on the same terms as men and with no barrler to a seat queen’s consent.
