KINNEY REPEATS HIS STORY. Thomas D. Kinney, a locomotive engineer, told the story, which was exclusively pub- lished In The Bee, of having seen three men with a push cart about 3 o'clock on the marning of July 3. One man was humping along on Thirteenth street, golng north, at the crossing of the Union Pacific tracks, and two other men were walking along on the east side of the streot. Witness' attention was_attracted by the shape of the object on tho eart. It was about the shape of a large sized man. e was going west on his engine at a rate of four or five miles an hour on the south bridge of the Union Pacific, and saw the men going along. "My first thought,” said the witness on cross- examination, “was what have those fellows got on that cart that looks so much like a man's body.” 1 was going to speak to the firoman, but he was busy making a fire, and 1 sald nothing to him. I spoke to the fire man and other members of my train crew a few minutes later, and we talked about it. We made up our minds to say nothing about the matter until the time come to glve the testimony, as we did not want to have our sieep broken during the day by policemen and newspaper reporters.’” A witness has been discovered who is able to add another link in the chain of evidence that is being drawn around the men ac- cused of the murder of John Seljan. A barkeeper in Emil Gall's saloon at Ninth and Donglas streets has been subpoenaed as & witness, and will testify that early on the morning of July 3, at about 5 o'clock, a man entered his saloon and excitedly called for whisky. He was very nervous, and watched the dcor as though looking for some one or something he was anxious not to see. After drinking a big drink of whisky the man hurriedly left the saloon and disappeared in the lumber yards near the Douglas street bridge. The barkeeper was taken to the police station Tuesday night, and asked if he could pick out his man from a line of prisoners who were brought before him. He imme. Qiately picked out Bukove as the man and said he was positive In the matter. The police look upon this as quite im- portant, in view of the fact that it was only about an hour before the time that Ruby found Seljan’s bloodstained coat and vest at the foot of Harney street. The best road from the river bank where the clothes were found s by way of Douglas street, and Bukove's presence in that local- ity at that hour Is considered very signifi- cant by the police. FOUND IN SELJAN'S TRUNK. Detective Savage was the first witness called at the afternoon session of the court. His testimony was in the main a repetition of that of Detective Dempsey, 80 far as the description of the rooms and furniture of th house was concerned. He testified that the door to Seljan’s room was open, although the prisoners clalmed that it had been Jocked and had been broken open by the palice. Drabnic was in the front room when the witness entered the house. Bukove and Mikan entered latef. Bukove talked some English and sald that Seljan had occupied the room in which the blood spots were found and that he had not been seen since he went to bed about 9 o'clock Tuesday morning. Witness found a soft felt hat on the bed in Seljan's room which Bukove claimed belonged to him. Witness arrested the three prisoners at time. He identified a pocket knike picked up in the room, closed, as the property of Seljan. Captain Mostyn testified that he and Chiet of Police White visited the cottage at 1318 Plerce street on the morning of July 3. He gave a detalled description of the condition of Seljan’s room as he found it, corroborating the evidence of Detectives Savage and Demp- sey In all essential points. He had seen $120 in gold and 51 cents In change, which had been taken from Seljan’'s trunk. Detective Dunn's evidence was that he and Detective Donahue arrived at the Mikan coi- tage after the prisoners had been taken away. He saw Captain Mostyn pick up the razor from the floor near the large trunk in_ome corner of Seljan's room. He cor- roborated ‘the evidence of the other officers on the locatlon, number and size of the blood pools and marks in the room and on the furniture. He had helped open Seljan’s trunk and had taken $120.51 from it. Joseph Ecker, foreman at the smelter, testified that Seljan had worked under him for nearly two years. He started home with Seljan on Tuesday morning and left him on Thirteenth street. He identified the key found on Seljan as belonging to the time clock at the smelter. He knew the prisoners, but did not work on the same shift with them. He identified the clothing found on the river bank as that worn by Seljan when he last saw him on Tucsday morning. Sergeant Ormsby detailed the results of his trip to the Mikan cottage. It was a re- petition of the testimony of the other officers. He had placed Officer Baldwin in charge of the cottage, with instructions to allow no one to enter or to leave the house without orders from Captain Mostyn. WHITE MADE NO PROMISES. Dr. B. Holovtchiner was called to testify to the “statements made by the prisoners to the chief of police after their arrest. The doctor acted as interpreter and the questions asked by him and the answers given by the prisoners were written down by Sergeant Ormsby and both questions and answers read to Dr. Holovtchiner at the time and pronounced by him as correct. A de- bate ensued over the admission of the notes and memoranda made by Sergeant Ormsby. The court held that the document could be used by the doctor to refresh his memory. Attorneys for the defense objected on the ground that the statements made by the prisoners were secured under threats, or promises. This overruled by the court, the doctor stating that Chief White had assured the prisoners that they must an- wer of thelr own free will and that no promise was held out to any of them to in- duce them to confess Lo any part they may have had in the murder. The witness sald that Bukove bad been examined first. When asked about the death of Seljan, Bukove had sald that maybe he had died by bleeding too much, and in response to another question had stated that Seljan was a healthy man. Bukove told how the different men under arrest had spent the day on Tuesday, July 2. Bukove said that he was at home in the evening and then went out and come back at 9:30 o'clock and went to bed. Chief White told Bukove that he knew that he (Bukove) had committe the murder. Bukove replied that it could not bo. 80, as no one had seen hiwm commit the crime. The witness then told Bukove (hat the body had been found and Bukove wanted to know If there was one wound in the throat or two. Bukove admitted that he had shaved Seljan on Tuesday. The kay to Seljan’s trunk had been found In Bukove's pocket, and Bukove explained this by say- ing that Seljan had left the key in the trunk and he had taken It for safe keep- ing. STATE CLOSES ITS CASE. Mike Urban, the other boarder at the Mikan cottage, who was at first suspicioned of hav- ing had a hand in the Killing of Seljan, was placed on the stand by the state. He spoke in the Servian language and was a voluble witness, Dr. Holovichiner acting as inte preter. Urban testified that he was em- ployed in the smelter and worked during the day, while Seljan and the other boarders at ‘Mikan's worked on the night shift. He knew SeMan, but had not seen him for a week be- fore the wurder, as they worked in different shifts and were never at the boarding house | at the same time. The witness slept in the big room with Bukove and Drobmic. He slept in a bed by himself, and Bukove and Drobnic had a syndicate couch. Their room was conencted by a door With the room o led by Seljan, while Mr. and Mrs. Mikan ind sleeping apartments in a room adjoining the kitchen. When witness returned from work on the mght of July 2 Bukove and Drobnic said that they had eaten their sup- er—they ucually ale with the witness—and o ate alone. While eating he heard Mr. and Mra. Mikan saylng that Scljan was drunk tater in the evening Bukove and Drobnic told him the same thing. The door to Seljan’s room was closed, although it was usually left open. The wituess loaned Bukove $2 aftor supper and Bukove left the house. ‘The state rested its case at the conclusion of Urban's testimony and an adjournment was taken untll 10 o'clock this morning when the court will hear arguments on motien of the defendants’ attoraeys for a dismissal. —— Moutgomery Prices.

CORNELL WENT TO PIECES Miserable Fiasco Ends the Chances of Ithaca in the Henley Regatta. LOST SECOND HEAT BY EIGHT LENGTHS Most of the American Boys Kowed Like school Boys—Some Falnted Dead Away and Others Dropped Their Onrs. HENLEY, July 10.—The anti-American feeling caused by Cornell going over the course yesterday when Leander failed to gt away at the word “go” continued today and offensive remarks are to be heard on all sides. “They are just like the Australians,” faid one person In the crowded breakfast room of the Red Lion hotel this morning, “they don't care how they win." The Leanders continued to fan the flame of discontent, They were to be heard in all parts denouncing, not the umpire or the decigion of the committee of stewards which gave the race to Cornell yesterday, but they denounced Cornell in spite of the fact that the American crew simply obeyed (he in- structions of the umpire to row over the course. The Leanders made no overtures to Cornell yesterday to race again, but they began an immediate torrent of abuse. Andrew White, who has been identified with the Coinell crew ever since the latter arrived at Henley, is perfectly well known to the different crews, Yesterday he entered a crowded hotel lobby wearing the Cornell colors. In the lobby was a group of Leanders excitedly talking over the unfortunate misunderstand- ing of yesterday. Begg, the Leander cox- swain, glanced at Mr. White and then sald, evidently for his bemefit: “D—n the Ameri- cans anyway. It is just what we might have expected.” All the members of the Cornell crew were very naturally indignant at the manner in which the Leanders had been speaking against them and they remarked: ‘It now rests with us to win today and show the Britishers that we do not depend on the bungles of any crew to win."” The day opened hot and clear. with the wind lighter than _yesterday, though still blowing from the Bucks shore, and as the Cornell crew upon this occasion had the opposite Berkshire shore, the weather was considered slightly against them. urtney, Cornell's trainer, was again ill all night and is under the care of a doetor, who says he is suffering from a chill. READY FOR THE SECOND HEAT. The members of the Cornell crew rose carly, were well rubbed down and had break- fast at 7:30 a. m. They were all well and in tho best of syirits. They did not go to the boat house before the race, but remained in thelr quarters until time to get ready to enter their boat shortly after 12 o'clock. The ®ubstitutes paddled the Cornell boat down to the starting point. The scenes of yesterday were repeated along the course, although the crowd was much lighter. As the crew of the Trinity Hall, Cambridge, paddled into position in order to meet Cornell in the fourth heat of the trial races for the Grand Challenge cup, the English- men met with a rousing reception. Their average weight was 165 pounds and their names were as follows: T. B. Hope, bow; J. A, Bott, W. J. Fernle, W. C. Stewart, W. A. Bleber, B. H. Howell, A. S Bell, D. B. Wauchope, stroke, and Paget. Tomlinson, coxswain. Trinity Hall was first caught at the start- ing point and took the Bucks position. Cornell was slow in taking up position on the Berkshire side. The word ‘“go” was given at 12:32 p. m. and Cornell first caught the water and started with a_stroke of forty-six to Trinity's forty-two. Cornell was half a length ahead on - turning into_the course after passing Regatta island. Then the Cornell runners began to encourage the American crew and under this stimulus Cornell, who had dropped to thirty-eight, apurted and increased her lead to a length. Trinity was then splashing slightly. Cornell made the half mile in 2 minutes 26 seconds, but passing Frawley court Cornetl went to pleces. Freeborn, No. 4, in the Cornell boat, dropped his oar and’ put his hands to his face. The Cornell crew seemed paralyzed at this. Hall, stroke of the Cor nell crew, seemed not to understand what was interfering with the momentum of the boat, and half turned round. By the time Cornell was again at work Trinity Hall was a length ahead, CORNELL COMPLETELY RATTLED. The Cornell crew was so rattled that they rowed like a lot of school boys, and Hager, No. 3 in the American boat, dropped his oar and fell back into the arms of No. 2, Spell- man. The latter instantly relieved him, and as Hager did not recover himself Colson, the coxswain, called out sharply, “What are you about, 37" Hager then resumed his oar and seemed to try to row, but no sooner had the crew recommenced pulling with Trinity half a dozen lengths ahead than it became Free- born's turn to binder matters. He dropped his oar and with one hand before his eyes seemed to grope blindly to recover it. By this time Trinity Hall was seven or eight lengths ahead, rowing a long, even stroke, and they could plainly be seen laugh- ing to each other. Passing the mile post in 5 minutes 22 sec- onds, Fennell's head fell forward and he seemed about to faint. He also dropped his oar and rubbed his forehead. The shouts of encouragement of little Colson, the Cornell_coxswatn, could ba distinctly heard above the din of cheering from the shore, where the Cornell men were runnig along the banlk, trantically endeavoring to encour- age the crew. Fennell recovered and tried to row, but his oar struck the water flat, although it was fo: some time in the proper position. Then again the men on the oppo- site side of the boat seemd unable to lift thelr oars and were occupled in trying to steady the boat. Hall, who was rowing steadily. looked the picture of despair. Nevertholess he kept at work and almost alone seemed to pull the boat. After passing the mile post Hager dropped his oar for the second time, but he recovered himself, although he scemed ready to faint again. Dyer, No. 4 in the Cornell boat, and Roe, the bow oar, who, with Hall, had been do- ing the best’ work, also began to show signs of exhaustion and hegan splashing badly. The Trinity Hall crew was then hopelessiy ahead and the race was virtually over. The crowds on the river banks and in tho boats aloug the shoie were frantic with delight at Cornell's umfortunate situation, but the Cor- nell men continued to run aiong the shore shouting all kinds of encouragement to the demoralized crew. The Coinell men in the boat, however, scemed more fit to be in their coffins than in a boat race. The American speotators ashore and afloat were heartbroken at the collapse of the Cornell crew. The grandstand was filled with brightly dressed American girls and many of them were cry- ing at the finish Trinity Hall won the race easily by eight lengths, ard as the Cornell boat crossed the finish jtne Fennell tumbled from his seat in a dead faint. The Britishers wore wild with delight when Trinity passed Cornell at the three-quarters post, but words fail to ex- press thelr degreo of enthusiasm when Trin- ity Hall won and Cornell tailed along past the grandstand. Then the Corneil men were recelved with hisscs. They stopped rowing Deforo they passed the judges, who hoisted the sign “not rowed out.” WHILE THE DAND PLAYEI ‘The band then played “God Save the Queen” ‘as_the crowd cheered ilself hoarse and poor Fennell lay a8 dead in the bottom of the Cornell boat, while his nearest com- panions splashed water in his face. Happily he soon recovered and the Cornell craw slowly paddled to thelr hoat house, which was shun- | ated about a quarier of a mile bayond the | finlsh. The Cornell men presented a solemn sight as they arrived at the bost house where thelr friends in walting did not know (he resuit, but there was no necessity for asking the asealion. The appearance of the craw only t0o surely gave the answer. Tears stood in Roa's eyes as he stepped out, and the crew were 50 exhausted that they could searcely Hft thelr boat from ihe water. Several members of the Cornell Glee club tried to arouse the drooping spirits of the Cornell erew, saying, “You have mn reason to feel ashamed; you did your best." Colson, the Cornell coxswain, deserves | credit for the way he kept his head and en- | couraged the erew, He kept shouting to hiy men while they were tombling about, | yBteady boye. sieady, g0 ahead; you have got them," The general opiaion s (hat the ‘Cornell TAVTC SR LS THE OMAHA DAILY BEW: THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1895. crew were hopelessly overtrained and that thers was no climate or malaria “about It. Colson, who hcted as spokesman for the Cor- nell crew, said: ““We had a hard race and we were fairly and squarely beaten.” Has the crew been overtrained?” Colson was_asked. Mr. Francls' orders are that there should be no talk on that subject,” was the reply. On_reaching their dressing roozi half of the Cornell crew lay down on the board floor and panted like hounds after a long run. In addition to the regular attendants the Cornell Giee club, who were present, acted as rubbers and assisted in washing down the crew with cold water. The other Cornell men outside the Iressing room enlivened the proceedings by glving the college yell again nd again at the full strength of their lungs. In the meantime the large boat house had become crowded with Americans and this had a cheering effect upon the defeated crew. In addition a number of Englishmen called at the Cornell boat house and expressed themselves as being sorry that the Ameri- cans were defeated. The following are expressions which some of the Cornell crew made after dressing: F. W. Frecborn—The Englishmen are the best men. George P. Dwyer—I think we have nothing to be ashamed of. Tom Hall—I am not sorry we came. C. A. Lewis—It s a waste of time to talk about the defeat. LEANDER GETS A LICKING. The only satisfaction of the day was the thorough beating which the four of the Thames Rowing club gave the four of tho Leander Boat club in the third heat of the race for the Stewards’ challenge cup. The Thames crew won as it liked by elght lengths. The Leander four were all members of the Leander crew entered for the grand chal- lenge cup and among those who have been 80 bitter against the Americans since Cor- nell, under the umpire's direction, rowed over the course yesterday when the Leandors failed to start. The Thames crew was heartily cheered as it crossed the line ahead, but the Leanders were received in silence. Fennell, it appears, was ill when he en- tered the race today, suffering from valvular affection of the heart, which caused a big lump on his left side. ~According to his ver- sion he caught a crab when the Cornell boat was passing the half mile post and his oar struck him a tremendous blow on his left side, the shock seeming to paralyze his legs. He 'was able to use his arm, but could not recover with the rest. The great exertion he was making caused him to faint in Free- born’s arms, and the terrible struggle the rest of the crew were obliged to make did up one after another. Fennell tried again and again to do his part, but he fainted three times. JEERED BY THE CANADIANS. As_ the Cornell erew pulled to the judges stand to go through the formality of giving their welghts they were all looking like death. About the stand was a crowd of Leanders in their boats and one of them sald: “I suppose you lost on account of the hard race you had yesterday Another Leander man jeeringly remarked “Of course you'r coming again in 967" The Cornell men made no reply to these sneers. The Pall Mall Gazette this evening, com- menting on the defeat of Cornell, says: “There was never such a popular victory in the history of the regatta. Trinity rowed beautifully together, in true ‘varsity style, and gradually wore the Yankees down. The shouting for Trinity as the crew finished was tremendous. The Cornell men, nevertheless, were In no wise derided by the enthusiasm The feeble attempt to cheer them, however, did not meet with a response.” On the third heat in the race for the Thames Challenge cup, Kingston beat the Freich crew of the Socete d' Encourage- ment au Sport Nautique, and in the fourth heat the crew of the Molesy rowing club beat the crew of the London Rowing club. In the second heat for the Stewards’ Chal- lenge cup, the crew of the London Rowing club beat the crew of New college, Oxford. In the third heat for the Stewards’ Chal- lenge cup, the crew of the Thames Rowing club beat the crew of the Leander Boat club, In the fourth heat for the diamond sculls, Guy Nickulls of London Rowing eclub’ beat E. A. Thompson of the Leander Boat club. In the fifth heat New college beat Eton in the race for the Grand Challenge cup. In the fifth heat for the Thames Chal- lenge cup, the St. John's college, -Oxford, crew, beat the eight of the Angilan Boat club. Trinity Hall's time in the race with Cor- nell was 7:17. The record time is 6: by a Leander crew, and the cup was won last year in 7:22. Arrangiog to Accommointe the World, DALLAS, Tex.,, July 10.—A diagram of the great Corbett-Fitzsimmons building was displayed at Dan Stuart's office this morn- ing. It showed an octagon structure cover- ing 400 feet of ground, or nearly four acres. The following are its grand divisions: Un- reserved seats, 30,805; reserved seats, 17,688, ats in balcony, 2,406; seats for the press, &2; total, 62815 There was never such theater bullt in the United States. The democratic wigwam at Chicago only had 50,000 feet and the Music hall at the World's fair no more. 'The prize ring is in the exact center and will be forty feet square, clevated four feet from the ground. The %2 seats reserved for the press will be next around the ring. From thence there s a sharp ascent towards the clouds, dizzy with marks and squares and pierced with alsles. As enormous as the capacity is, it is confidently expected that every seat will be taken. Secretary Wheeler was busy this morning marking off the boxes and seats taken by people at a distance. Mannfacturers Do Not Want Professionsl . ASBURY PARK, July 10.—Three of the mest influential members of the Cycle Board of trade, the Spalding, Syracuse and Sterling Manufacturing _companies, have agreed_not to tolerate the proposed new class B rule of the League of American Wheelmen. They say that If the class B riders now under contract with them want to become professionals, they must cut loose from them first. The manufacturers take the position that they will not sanc- tion professional racing. Two hundred wheelmen made the run for Mansaquan, the home of A. A. Zimmerman, today. They were led by the champlon, who, with his father, entertained the riders. The 100-mile road race was called off. Chairman Gideon had not sanctioned it and the race could not be held unless on an open race day. Yale’s Hoply to Cambridge. NEW YORK, July 10.—The conditions made by Cambridge upon which they would accept Yale's counter chalelnge for a meet- ing in New York are in the main satisfac- tory to Yale. The following cablegram was sent today io the representatives of Cam- bridge: “The conditions made by Cambridge are satisfactory to Yale. Cambridge to sail by the Cunarder after August 27; the games are to take place October 5.' We would suggest that the 2X-yard run be substituted for the 300-yard run, as our straightaway tracks are only 220 yards long. Yale will arrange for & house in New Haven and will But,he Yale track at the disposal of Cam- bridge if the latter wishes.” At the Chirago tennis Tourney.

The Hutchinson family turned the tables on Uncle Traflley’s aggregation yesterday afternoon, beating them out in a well played gamo by a score of 6 to 2. And the victory came in the shape of a surprise party too, for the home team, or a majority of it, rather, were in a more fit condition for the hospital than the ball fleld. Hutch and Lohman only had two legs between them, and Nattress but one arm, while Inks was hampered with a sore foot, Miles a game thumb and Shaffer and Pace were both more or less under the weather. But despite of all this, Trafley's formidable outfit was like so many infants. But they played fine ball all the same, and had it not been for Carrish's magnificent pltching would undoubtedly have continued on thelr triumphal march. Kid Mohler played the star. game of both teams, his flelding being clean, quick and marvelous On the part of Omaha Petrino Lohman was the attraction. He never caught a better game, hit like a Brouthers and kicked like a steer. It s about time (this usually gentlemanly player took a tumble to himself. His continuous chewing with the umpire is becoming not only monotonous, but ob- noxious. There Is no fault to be found with Umpire Burns yesterday, in fact his work was splendid. Hutch, too, is deserving of considerable praise for yesterday's timely win. He was very lame and sick besides, yot he put more energy In the game than any other player on the team, and it was his incessant jolly that spurred the boys on to victory. Score: OMAHA.

A PO ETA NEARLY READY FOR CAMPAIGN Has Recelved Plenty of Funds and Wi Equip an Expedition, SAN FRANCISCO, July 10.—General Ezeta and his followers are said to be nearly ready for thelr attack upon Salvador. For some time there has been a lack of funds in the war chest of the exile, but today it fs re- ported he had received a large sum of money from Central America and that in a short time the balance of what is needed will be supplied. Ezeta Is sald to be negotiating for a sealing_or whaling steamer, which will take on at one of the islands of the Santa Barbara channel arms and ammunition, which will be shipped there for that purpose. It is also the plan of Ezeta to enlist In his cause about seventy-five Americans, upon whose bravery and fighting qualities’ he may rely. His equipment will consist of four rapid-fire guns, six Gatling guns, 500 rifles, as many revolvers and 300,000 rounds of ammunition. With this equipment he is confident that he can make a landing and rally his friends and the enemies of the present government and proceed to the capital. A few days ago Ezeta sent a prociamation to Salvador calling upon the natives to rally to his_support upon his arrival, 037110014 Spain Exelted Uver the Eustis Iuterview.

The dinner given Coppinger last night the Omaha club brought out the men, and many of the women, who assisted in making Omaha the now leading city of the Antelope state. It was In all essentials a meeting of old friends and the guest of the evening could not help but remark the warmth of the reception and the genuine expression of congratulation which prevaded the assemblagé upon his elevation to a brigadier generalshlp and command of the Department of the Platte. Without any attempt at elaboration the tables were splendidly placed and the decora- tions were in keeping with the occaston, modest, but very beautiful, cut flowers be- ing placed in vases with here and there long- stemmed roses scattered the damask cloths. General C. F. Manderson occupied the position of toastmaster, General Cop- pinger being on his right and Mrs. Bache on the left. Around the tables were Mr. and Mrs. J. N. H. Patrick, General and Mrs. J. C. Cowin, General and Mrs. George B. Dandy and Miss Dandy, Mr. and Mrs., Bdward Rosewater, Mr. and Mrs. Mil- ton Barlow, Dr. and Mrs, Bache, Mr. and Mrs. Henry D. Estabrook, Mr. and Mrs. George Pritchett, Mr. Yost and Mrs. Offutt, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Kimball, Dr. George L. Miller and Miss Briggs, Mr. H.'T. Clark and Miss Clark, Mr. A. J.

Following the menu, which was well chosen and well served, General Manderson felicitously voiced the sentiments of the assembled guests in the welcome he ex- tended the commander of the Department of the Platte, which he stated was very dear to those about the board. “We have been on the frontier for a quarter of a century and consequently have seen much of the army of the United States. We recognize, therefore, how much it is to us. Now that we have passed beyond the frontier period of our lives into a distributing center, as was well demonstrated in the recent labor troubles, we still feel the same kindly in- terest in the army.” But before he reached this thought in his speech General Mander- son, with quiet force and eloquence, told of the army of the United States, how that it was exceptional to all the armies of the world. He said its position was unique, that while not powerful in numbers it represented the power of 60,000,000 of people and therefore stood for an irrestible force While small in numerals, it contained the might, the majesty of a great nation and its smalliess need never affright the timid heart, for if necessity demanded the army of today would but prove the nucleus of a mighty host, ready to die for freedom and the right, This sentiment received a burst of applause in which the women joined as heartily as the men. General Manderson then touched upon the requirements for en- listment into the army, neither politics nor religion cutting any figure in the selection of the new recruit, and rapidly passed to a consideration of the record made by the guest of the evening. He spoke of the venerable St. George Cook, the genial Augur, the gallant Ord, the noble Crook, the brave Howard, the reilable Brooke, and lastly the present department commander, who was made a chevaller for gallant defense of the La Rocca gateway, far over the seas, and who later, in 1861, joined with the union arms and 'won mention after mention in the great battles which will go down into_his- tory, the second Bull Run, Gettysburg, Mine Run, the Wilderness, Cold Harbor, Winches- ter, Cedar Creek, Five Forks and Appomat- tox. The toastmaster spoke of the parting with General Brooke and then in pleasing words welcomed his successor as a most gallant soldier and most courteous gentle- man. GENERAL COPPINGER'S REPLY. General Coppinger replied in a few words which glowed with thankfulness upon the occasion. He stated he had never made a speech before In his life, but he could not help but feel grateful to the gentlemen in attending and to the presence of the ladies. He said he fully appreciated the honor the president of the United States had paid him and also the importance of the department to which he had been assigned. Dr. Miller followed in a speech that was full of reminiscence, recounting the wooden days of Omaha, when St. George Cook was in command of the department. He spoke pleasingly of the civilizing influences of the army, and attributed much of the present culture to the presence of the army in the bygone days. Mr. H. D. Estabrook had a few words of congratulation to say, and then calls for Mr. E. Resewater brought forward that gentle- man, who said that while the new rifle might shoot a mile and the new-fangled cannon might send a projectile five mile the projectiles from tho press carried in- finitely farther. He asked permission of his “snow-capped friend, Count Crelghton,” to say that 200 years ago the warrior car- dinal, Richelieu, had said that the “pen was mightier than the sword,” and that edi- torially or individually, he would be found upholding that ides. That while Fitz Hugh Lee, in the July number of a well known magazine, might discuss the possibility of the new gun in future warfare, he wanted it understood the newspaper was in the war for all time. He sald, in closing, t the army had his good will, and that General Joppluger would have his protection, which excited wild applause’and happlly closed the dinner to the department commander of the Platte. in at honor of General over seen s '« Water Works Muddie, DENVER, July 10.—Mayor McMurray an- nounced today at a conference with the members of the city council, that he would sign no ordinance for a horizontal reduction of water rates, and ne is opposed to con- demnation of the works on the basls of the prezent revenues of the company. He will sign either an ordinance requiring the com- pany, in accordance with this contract, tv fij a schedule or a rate which shall be an average of those In Chicago, St. Louls and Cinelnnati, or one haming such average Verve rates fixed by council. - B | HEAYY FIGHTING Soveral Sharp Engagoments Hetweon Spane 18k Troops wnd Insargents HAVANA, July 10.—General Navairo s pursuing the insurgents under Garzon, who were recently defeated near Minas Dalquirt, province of Santlago de Cuba. After belng driven from that place to Matieguas, from which place they retreated before the ma- vance of the troops, with a loss of many dead and_wounded Rabl, the insurgent leader at the head of 1,200 men, has compelled Major Sanchez, with 400 men, to retreat. The Insurgent leader surprised the Spanish troops at Cacae near Jiruant, not far from Bayamo, in the province of Santiago de Cuba. The troops made a gallant defense, but Major Sanchez lost twenty killed and wounded and re- tired to Santa Rita. The loss of the Ine surgents s said to have been much heaviee than that of the troops. General Gasa has had a three days' fighg with the insurgents in the Sierra Maestra, The insurgents lost a great many killed and wounded, and the troops captured a quantity of arms, ammunition and horses. lfunlm»r detalls of the fight have not been recelved The steamer San Francisco has arrived here from Spain with 2,200 troops, and the steamer Antonlo Lopez has arrived with 250 troops.
