8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1895 LIMIT FOR GRAND LARCENY Daniel Baker's Bad Record Led the Judge to Show Him No Leniency. TO THE PENITENTIARY FOR SEVEN YEARS Two Accomplices Get Thirty Days in Jail— Punlshment Assigned to Prisoners Who Were Convicted Last Week—Brabets Ket Free on Promises, Yesterday afternoon Judge Scott sentenced the prisoners who were convicted during the previous week in the criminal department of the district court, Danfel Baker, who had been convicted of grand larceny, was eentenced to seven years at hard labor in the state prison. Baker, in company with John Wyman, on December 8, 1894, stole a lot of wearing apparel, Jewelry and silverware from the residence of B. E. Betebemer at Nineteenth and Spruce streets. This is the third time within a year that Baker las been arrested for felony, and the court gave him the greatest penalty pro- vided by the statute for his offense. John Wyman, alias John Burrs, who was charged with having assisted Baker In his gald on the Betebemer residence, pleaded gullty to petit larceny and got thirty days at hard labor. Charles Nolan, who was burglary, for having broken into the barn of Charles Lynch in the vicinity of South Omaha, and stealing a sack of bran, was convicted by the jury of petit larceny. He was sentenced to thrty days at hard labor in the county jail. Thomas Bradlaugh was given thirty days at hard labor for stealing a bicyele from in front of the New York Life bullding on July 30, 1894. He was originally charged with grand larceny, but the owner of the wheel having left the state Bradlaugh was al- lowed to plead guilty to petit layceny. James Brabets was discharged upon prom- 1sing to behave himself, though: convicted of assault. He was one of the striking work- men_ in South Omaha last year, and on Au- gust 1 assaulted Chris Nelson with a stick Nelson procured his arrest, and he was charged with assault with intent to do great bodily Injury, but was convicted of simple assault. He never had been arrested be- fore, and, not having had steady employment during the last few months, his wife and two small children have had to subsist on the charity of the neighbors during his imprison- ment. For these reasons he was permitted to go free, Notice of a motion for a new trial was made in the case of Willlam Mathews, who was convicted of an_attempt to Kill a col- ored porter in a Ninth street resort on November 9, 1893. He escaped from the city after committing the deed, .and only returned about five weeks ago, and was arrested. charged with County Files 11s Objection. A demurrer has been filed by the defendant in the caee of the Omaha Loan and Trust company against the county of D:uglas. The action is for $900.54 damages, faid to have been eustained by the plaintiff by reason of grading done by the defendant in Novemb:r, 1889, in front of property in Florence, upon which the Omaha Loan and Trust company held a mortgage. It claims that by the grading operations, which still hemain un- finished, the value cf the property has dimin- ished $3,000. The alleged damage to the plaintift’s interest In~ the prop:rty is the amount sued for. The demurrer is on the ground that the , complaint does not etate facts sufficient to “ constitute &-causs jot action. | s Megenth F)les His Answor. An: answer ‘has-beer: flled in the d'strict court by T. A. Megenth; who was register of deeds ‘during 1892 and 1893, in the suit of Douglas county -against him and his bcads- men. Megeath denes that there is any amount due from him to the county. He claims to have had a right to deduct his own salary and the salaries of necessary clerks from the fees collccted, and that after having done so \.there was a balance in 1892 of ~$2,289.28, which, upon orders of the county commis- sicners, he paid to the county treasurer; aiso that there was a balance of $718.21 in 1893, which he disposed of in the same way, taking the treasurer's receipt for both amounts. Suing fol A petition has been filed in the county court by Gault Bros. against the F. E. Short Commission company of South Omaha asking Judgment for $700 and costs of suit. Gault Bros. allege that In September, 1894, they shipped to the defendants eighteen head of horses, and in December of the same year forty-nine head, to be sold_on commission. The horses were sold for $1,200, of which Gault Bros. have received but $500. They claim that the F. E. Short company has un- lawfully appropriated the balance, $700, and refuse to refund any part of it. Asking Hoavy Dumug The trial of the case of John Czaplenskl, r., inst Martin Ittner for $25,000 damages, Is gOINg on before a jury in Judge Ferguson's court. ; Ittner, who Is' tho proprietor of a" brick yard on South Sixteenth street, employed the plaintiff, who is a minor, as a laborer, and in April, 1§93, while at work, the boy' was caught In a_cogwheel, and ampi was necessary. For this he wants $25,000. The jury went to the scene of the accident at noon to look at the ground. Minor Court The wholo of yesterday was consumed by Judge Scott in examining the excuses or the unwilling citizens who have been drawn to serve Jurors during the remalnder of the February term, In the caso of Warren Switzler against the American Waterworks company, Judge Am- brose granted an order restraining the de- fendants from cutting off the water supply ;:om the residence of the plaintiff at 2604 St. ary's avenue, upon the filing of a bond of $100 by Switzler.

Lodge has contrtbuted to the March number of the Forum an article entitled “Our Blundering Foreign Policy,” In which he severely arraigns the administra- tion at Washington for its policy In dealing with Samoa, Hawali and Japan. H: says: “If the democratic party has had one car- dinal principle beyond all others it has been that of pushing forward the boundaries of the United States. Under this administra- tion, governed as It is by free trade influ- ences, this great principle of the democratic party during nearly a century of existence has been utterly abandoned. Thomas Jeffer- son, admitting that he violated the constitu- tion while he did it, effected the Louisiana purchase, but Mr. Cleveland has labored to overthrow Amerlean interests and American control In Hawall. Andrew Jackson fought for Florida, but Mr. Cleveland Is cager to abandon Samoa, The democratic party, in its leaders at least, has been successfully Cobdenized, and that is the underlying reason for their policy of retreat.” In the same number of the Forum Mr. Andrew Carnegle, under the suggestive title What Would I do with the Tarift it I Were Czar?’ emphatically declares that the only result of the Wilson tarift has been 10 reduce the taxes on the luxurles of the rich, and he advocates a new tariff which should highly tax all imported luxuries used solely by the rich classes. He says: “'Under the present tariff the rich man of fashion wears his superfine foreign broadcloth, super- fine linen, silk hat, kid gloves, fine silk u brella, sips his costly glass of rare old wine, from 20 o no less than 70 per cent less than the former duties upon these superfluous luxuries. His grand dame plays her fan, flourishes her embroidered handkerchief, dis- plays her exquisite laces, and arrays hergelf In superb silks at equal reductions, with many smiles and thanks to the newly arisen iend of the people, the ch t West Virginian, who apologizes for his fallure to reduce the duties upon the cham- RASUO sho ofers him. exvlaiuink wat it was ey not his fault, as the bill originally provided for its reduction also. Hundreds of fancy articles made of wool, silk and linen are now under feduced dutfes. These reductions, as we shall see later, embrace articles de luxe, which furnish two-thirds of the entire revenue from the tariff. Not one working- man in the whole land uses these luxuries. Such is ‘tariff reform’ wp to date, and thus is the ‘burden of taxation removed from the masses of the people.” Monstrous imposture! The taxes are removed only from the rich.” pdivids Sty HAYUEN BROS, Closing Out Cook's Heavy Welght Clothing for Men, Boys and « hildren This Woek.

EXPECT3 NO EXTRA SESSION, Senator Thurston Describes the Feel'ng on the Matter In Washington. General Solicitor John M. Thurston, who March 4 will become United States senator from Nebraska, has just returned from New York. Speaking of the general talk going on relative to an extra session of congress, he said: “It is only one chance in ten thousand that the president will call an extra session. When I left New York it was generally con- ceded that, with the passage of the appropria- tion bills all’ reason for an extra session would be dispelled. It is generally under- stood that no legislation with any show of opposition will be attempted from this on to the end of the present congress. The presi- dent _seems to be provided with sufficient leg- islation' to issue bonds, and as these do not fall due for thirty years, there seems to be little_reason for anxiety on the part of the executive head.- If an extra session -was called it might result disastrously to the ex- ccutive head, and no one realizes this more than the president himself. I do not want an extra session, and, I belleve, that Is the feeling with the people, for little good to the president would come of it.” Senator Thurston, Mrs, Thurston, General and Mrs. Cowin and Winslow S. Pierce will leave Thursday in a speclal car for Portland to be present at the hearing for a separate recelver of the Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern companles, which will be heard by Judge Gllbert March 5. i P I No_ugly bugs can live where Stearn’s Elec- tric Paste is used; 25c. | and accrued interest to April 1. CONFERENCE ON COAL RATES It Has Been Oalled for Tomorrow at the A Millard Hotel, ROADS THAT WILL BE REPRESINTED Some Prospect that the Controversy of Three Years, Aggravated by the Recent Action of the Union Pacific, May Be Settled. For more than three years railroads in this section have been more or less Interested in coal rates, but so diverse have been the in- terests and 0 vital the problems requiring solution at the hands of general managers that coal rates have been the subject of con- troversy without any unanimous agree- ment in all the years, However, the recent flurry in coal rates on the part of the rail- roads has brought about a meeting which will be held in this city on Wednesday, at the Millard, representatives of the Denver & Rlo Grande, the Rock Island, B. & M., Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, Missourl Pacific, Fre- mont, Blkhorn and Missouri Valley and the Union Pacific having signified a desire to at- tend and attempt a solution of the problem. When the Unicn Pacific made the cut on Rock Springs coal the reduction was promptly met by the B. & M. and Rock Island. This reduction was followed later by a similar cut on Hanna coal, the understanding being that the Omaha consumer would receive the bene- fit of the reduction, but at a meeting of the representatives of the coal department of th: Union Pacific it was decided not to give the benefit of the cut to the consumer until after the meeting of Wednesday. A representative of partment of the B. & M. said to a Bee man: “We never lead in matters of this kind, but with cuts in freight rates inaugu- rated we stay by our guns until matters are finally adjusted. When the Union Pacific began the war on coal rates we saw that notwitastanding the emergency nature of their new tariff they were not applying the cut for the benefit of Omaha consumers, and we declded to give the consumers of Sheridan coal the benefit. This is the position in which the coal question now stands.” On the other hand, the Union Pacific ex- pressed the idea that sometning definite would be the outcome of the meeting on Wednesday, which opinion is not shared by some of the other roads, parties to the con- ference, the freight de- Oll-Burning Locomotives. The Southern California railroad is prob- ably entitled to the credit of first introducing ofl-burning in locomotives in regular passen- ger service in this country. Locomotive No. 625 of that company has been equipped with the Booth oll-burning apparatus, a device which has been designed after a long period of experiment, although the patents on it have been taken out but a short time, William Booth, the designer, was formerly master mechanic of the Peruvian Central railway, but of late has been conducting the experi- ments on the Scuthern California_line, being aided by Master Mechanic Prescott, who has had wide experience in similar experiments. The equipment makes very little change in the exterior appearance of the engine. Tae fuel tank holds a little over five fons of ol and Is placed inside the water tank, so that | it is surrounded by water, there being six feet of it on the back of the tank, eighteen inches on the sides and fronts, and six inches on the top. It is provided with an ofl-tight mantole and has a gas vent on top, so that any manner of shak'ng will not allow the o!l to escape. For the sake of safety there are two safety valves, one on top and the other on the bottom. An apparatus is provided to shut off the flow of oil to the engine in case the supply pipe, becomes broken from any cause. Two burners are used, with steam jets in each, by which the oll Is sprayed into the fire boxes, Preparing for the Hearing. General Solicitor John M, Thurston and General Attorney W. R. Kelly of the Unlon Pacific returned Sunday from an extended visit to New York. For the next few days Mr. Thurston will be busily engaged in ar- ranging matters in connection with the ap- plication for a separate receiver of the Oregon Short Line, which is down for a hearing belore Judge Glibert on March 5. Immediately after the hearing on the Short Line receivership the question of damages resulting to the roadbed of the Oregon Rall- way and Navigation company along the Columbia river, by reason of its overflowing, will be taken up, Recelver McNeill contend- ing that the receivers of the Union Pacific should bear the major portion of the repairs. Lilinols Central Alortgage Extonsion. NEW YORK, Feb. 26.—The Illinois Central railroad has arranged to extend to £500,000 the first mortgage sterling loan due April 1, 1895, to April 1, 1951, at 4 per cent. The negotiations are being conducted in London through Morton, Rose & Co., who will extend the bonds upon payment of a premium of 5 per cent. Holders of.the present bonds may sell them at any time after March 1 at par The bonds were issued in 1876 and are a first lien on 706 miles of road.

The question of retrenchment of expenses fs still bothering the brains of the county commissioners. Yesterday they held an other session as a committee of the whole. | Nothing very definite has been decided upon, except that under no circumstances will they cut salarles. This proposition was made in one of the secret meetings, but Mr. Jenkins, who was really opposed to such a course, agreed, providing the cut would be com- menced on the salaries of the commissioners themselves. He and those who are opposed to a reduction of pay do not consider it Just to lowor the pay of other employes of the county and keep their own pay as it is at present. This little argument silenced the “advocates of reduction instantly, The majority are of the opinion that salaries are much lower than they ought to be even now, and instead of being lowered they should in scme and even many cases be in- creased, The plan now being ¢:nsidzred Is the cutting oft of all unnecessary help. The commis sloners are taking up each of the count offices separately, and are diligently search- ing for evidences of incompetency in em- ployes, or other reasons for dispensing with their services. This is the only way they can sce of economizing, and they have, there- fore, determined upon adopting it. So far they have not determined upon dropping any- one, but they are pretty certain to do so be- fora the meeting of next Wednesday. iy If Dead Branches Are Removed. Contrary to the general understanding, the finance committee of the city council has not recommended that the bills for removing dead animals shall hereafter be pald out of the general fund. They simply recommended the payment of the January bill, but this is not intended as a precedent. It is stated that the council will wait for some action on the part of the Board of Health before procec ing further in the matter. It is believed that there is. a_certain amount of dead timber in the Health department, and if the board shows a disposition to weed that out the council may decide to allow some relief. ———— Time Not Yet Set. Judgs Dundy has not yet indicated the time for hearing the differences between the city and the American Water Works company City Attorney Connell telegrapheld Judge Dundy at Deadwood that he had filed the afswer of the city officials in the case and that the city desired a full hearing before any further action was taken. It is expected that the judge will take up the matter soon after his return from Deadwood. 4 - 7 ; i A CONFIDENTIAL CHAT between two men or women generally develops the fact that one or both of them are troubled by sickness of some kind. One man is all right except his rheumatism, another has a *‘slight touch’’ of dyspepsia, an- other has bilious headaches and another is too nervous to sleep well. What's to be done about it? The situation is serious. Little things have a way of getting big. ig di s are bad things. Sleeplessness brings irritable nerves, loss of loss of appetite. Sleepless people soon get their bodies into such a condition that disease-germs find it easy to lodge there and propagate. People die from the aggravation of an aggregation of little things. The more promptly a disease or disorder is met the more quickly it is cured. Most all sickness starts in the stomach, liver or lungs. Rheumatism, scrofula, eczema, consumption, come about because insufficient, impure or impoverished blood is present. The things we eat and breathe are what make blood pure or impure, The diseased blood finds the weakest spot in the body and a local symptom appears. If the impurity is sup- planted with good, rich, red, healthy corpuscles, the disease will have nothing to feed on. If the proper cleansing medicine is sent to the seat of the trouble, it will force out the germs and repair the damage done, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is a cleansing, purifying medi- cine, a blood enricher, a nerve strengthener. It is an efficient tonic, aids digestion, creates healthy appetite and healthy flesh. It does not make people “fat.”’ It makes them strong. It makes useful flesh—muscle. It will cure any sickness that has its source in the digestive organs, or through them in the blood. It will cure 98 per cent. of all cases of con- sumption if it is taken in time. Consumption is virtually scrofula of the lungs. Serofula is a disease of the blood. The ‘‘ Golden Medical Di covery '’ purifies the blood.
