For several weeks the fire ¢ has been kept busy running to fires in the loaded y cars on the Elkhorn tracks north of Nicholas street. There have been some twenty alarms from that locality ten cars of hay have been totally destroyed. The Nebraska Hay company has lost three cars A. G. Knapp, three; Mr. Butler, two; Mr Twamley, one, and the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company, two. Yesterday morning at about 9 o'clock one of the assistant fire chiefs drove past the office of the Nebraska Hay company anl the clerk in the office called out and asked if the de- partment was coming down in order to keep up its record. The words had hardly been spoken when flames shot up from a car of hay belonging to the Omaha Bridge and Terminal cor was standing on the track n tion savel the car from being destroyed. One of tie clerks in the office of the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company had seen a man coming from behind the car just before the fire was discovered und o notified Mr. Gibbs of the Nebraska Hay company. Gibbs ran to the car and met Jack Wills, a black smith, coming from the burning car. Gibbs sefzed the man and said, “I want you." Wills offered no resistance and was turned over to the police. He was charged with being a suspicious character and will be held pend- Ing an investigation of the case ¥ Since the arrest a number of men employed by the different hay firms say that they have scen Wills hanging around the hay c almost daily, and that his presence in the vicinity is usually followed by a fire in the hay. WARN they rtment and R RUNS A BLUFF ON HIS LOVE oles Into the Night Air to Test Ner Affectic C. N. Warner and Fay Thomas had one of those old time lovers' quarrels Monday night It attracted the ttention of the police and at one stage in its progress promised a job for the coroner. Warner s a clerk in the employ of an East Omaha factory and Fay s just a simple malden of 30 years, short on beauty and long on love. She has two fellows and it came to a showdown as to whether Warne or his rival. was to be given per- manent monopoly of her affections. She and Warner had been out for a good time and had returned about midnight to the girl room at a Dodge street hotel. Fay had been gloriously entertained ana so_expressed he welt and then Warner took his cue and played high from a long hand. He de- manded that the other fellow be tossed off at once, Fay demurred. ner was de- termined (o bring matters to a focus, If Fay would not cleave to him alone he would not be a sister to her even, but would go out and puncture his anatomy with a few holes, caliber 38, Fay wasn't ready to give up her other fellow and Warner took her to his bosom, pressed a few warm kisses on her marble brow and bade her a tearful farewell and passed out into the night. Fay sat down on the foot of the bed and waited for the pistol shots. They came, two of them. Then the girl let out a collection of hysterical yells that roused the nelghborhood and breught the police. Sergeant Whalen and Officer Monroe hur- ried to the hotel and found the girl. She told her story and begged the police to get her lover's body that she might weep over it. The officers found Warner very much alive and he and Fay were given apartments in the city Jail,__ MERCHANT CAU shot TON BOGU CHE 'K~ Pald Money to s Man Who fiad No . Accoant. At least two merchants in Omaha paid tribute to the smoothness of a bogus check fiend Monday evening. About 5 o'clock in the dressed young man called ber supply house on D pressed a desire to invest madz the selection of a sented in nent a_check on the American National bank for $0.26, payable to R Houser and purporting to be signed by the same man. It was after banking hours and Mr. Stanfield made some inquiries as to the identity of the purchaser. The man said that his name was Houser, that he was an attorney in the New York Life building, that he had been busy in Justice Smith's court all the afternoon and had neglected to draw money from the bank earlier In the day. He had made the check for $9.25, because he needed $6 for another purpose and would have car fare left. Mr. Stanfleld accepted the check and gave his own in change for $6.25. Mr. Houser then decided that as matters were coming pretty easy he would try the game on a little larger scale. He went into the Globe Clothing store and bought light underwear to the value of $2 and mave In payment a check for §1 This was ac- cepted, after the lawyer story had been told with light variations and Mr. Houser was given $13 in good money as change. Both checks were thrown out by the bank this morning and the police are looking for Mr. Houser. Mr. Starfleld has stopped payment on his check at the bank and hopes to get out of the deal with only the loss of the razor. Bank afternoon a well Stanfield’s bar- street and ex- in a razor.

After some time Billy Ebersole was arrested on the complaint of Leonard, charged with running a Joint. The case was called last week, but Leon- ard's testimony was not of the convincing kind and Judge Berka gave the state until yesterday to get additional evidence. Mr. Leonard was on hand with three young men, who were supposed to be ready to swear that they had seen the crap game in full blast at Ebersole's place, but when the boys went on the stand they swore that they had never played in the place, had never seen any one play there and did not know Leonard from a crow. Assistant County Attorney Day gave up in disgust and the case was dismissed on his motion. Held for Assaulting Me Swan Bergner was arraigned in police court yesterday charged with having as- saulted George Medlock on the night of July 13, Bergner could not speak English and was Informed of the charge against him by an interpreter, a young woman who was in the court as a witness in another case. He in- digoantly deuled the charge and laughed merrily when the judge asked him if he could glve bonds In the sum of $1,000, In default of bail Berguer was sent to jafl to await a hearing. Mr. Medlock positively {dentifies Berguer as the man who committed the assault. Mr. Medlock’s condition is yet very critical and Bergner may have to an- SWer to the charge of murder, Il(|'u Lould Not l)-clfl N James Jores and Otto First, two bright boys, were given a hearing yesterday on the charge of disturbing the peace. It all came about over the breaking down of H. Bohmme's wagon. The boys swore that they simply wanted to help the man fix his wagon and it wasn't their fault at all if Bohmme got into a fight with another tellow and lost & singletree and a hitching strap. Young First said that he might have a wagon of his own some time and he would be glad to bave the boys help him fix it if it broke dow evidence of the boys was as stralght as a dle and left the judge in doubt as to his duty In the case.

Poor Farm Lot Vurchas Claims Against th Within the last few days nearly $30,000 of judgments have been securcd against the county of Douglas by purchasers of the poor farm lots, Hardly & meeting of the Board of County Commissioners for some weeks past has been held at which additional Douglas county poor farm claims have not been filed. Some of the claims, it is said, are barred by the statute of limitation. It will be known in a short time just what the amount of the in- debteiness is, as the county clerk has re- celved fnstructions from the commissioners to make a report upon the sums due. In the meantime the holders of claims upon which suit has been brought have been rapidly re- ducing them to judgmen In each case a stipulation was entered at the time of the appeal of the Kellar case to the supreme court permitting the rious cases to abide the cutcome of this suit, which was n e the test. The judgments taken in the last few days are the result of these stipulations and are in favor of M Coad, $5,01 85 J. Whalen, $64 . M. Coad, $22,712.73, and L. E. Wright, $344. 1t is still an open question with the holders of judgments whether or not to try the ef- fect of a mandamus suit to compel an addi tional levy for the purpose of liquidating the judgments. The levy made for this purpose only amounts to $60,000, which will wire out but a portion of the sums due, and while each judgment, it gllowed to run another year, will draw interest, it is given out that the holders of liens would prefer their money to having only a judgment. The county commissioners maintain that in making an annual levy, which brought the county levy up (o the limit allowed by law, they Qid all that could be required.

Mrs. Ish is causing no end of trouble and worry to the court house officials. Her daily trips for a constitutional are taken under the vigilant eye of Moses Steerman, who has been detailed for this work by the sherift. Thus far Steerman has had to ad- vance every penny for the street car rides, He will present his bill to the commissioners, What will become of it is a matter of conjecture. While none of the commissioners have any objection, so far as heard, to remunerating Steerman for the duty he has been detailed to perform, some complaints have been heard concerning Judge Scott's connection with the affair and’ statements made by him recently that he was running the court house and that he is above the county commissioners, will not tend to quiet the affair Steerman says that he is losing no sleep, as Mrs. Ish has promised o have her father pay him.

A Great Yield of Onats. Yesterday W. I Kierstead drove out to his Douglas county farm, and upon his return he brought with him a sample of oats from' his forty-acre fleld. In this field the gruin stands five feet high on the average, the heads measuring from eighteen to twenty- four inches. Mr. Kierstead states that the oats will easily yield 120 bushels to the acre. They will be ready to cut the last of this week, In many of the fields, Mr. Kierstead says, that the farmers have finished cutting thelr small grain and that the yield will be simply enormous. Regarding rain, he says that it fs not needed as the ground s very molst, Farmers now need dry, hot weather. and plenty of it, to mature the corn crop, il Choir Boys \n Camp.

General Solicitor Thurston of the Union Pacific sald that the granting of the decree prayed for in the Oregon Short Line & Utah Northern case at Portland was expected by everybody connected with the company, the appeal which Mr. now prayel for being entirely formal and of right. “Before sale of the property is consummated,” said Mr Thurston, “undoubtedly similar decrees will be askel for from courts in whose jurisdic- tions the property lies, This will take some time. Then, again, the reorganization will have to get together and unite what now seems divergent interests upon some common basis, This done, a comrany will have to be tormea for the pur- of the property, ani finally this com- pany will into court exactly on the same lines as represented by the American Loan and Trust company; the first mortgage, with the defaulted interest, will have to be paid before the new company can succeed to the control of the property.” n iu the outline it is easily seen what ingencies may arise to defeat the purpose those seeking to dismember the Union Pacific, and as one wise head remarked, ‘there are a great many holes in the skim- mer.'" Before the dreams of those antagonistic to the present management of the Union Pa- cific are realized it may be that a plan of reorganization will be decided upon in which event the wrangle over the property will cease. It is quietly intimated that in the reorgan- i m of the Oregon Railway & Naviga- tion company now going on tie Union Pa- ¢! will not be so completely out in the cold as under the present management, and that it will be very easy to take in the navigation company, should congress look favorably on the new proposition which will be presented to it next winter for its en- dorsement WILL chase come TREAT ALL POINTS ALIKE Unlon Pucific Sees No K Kick. The equalization of fates on the Union Pacific to certain points in Montana and Idaho, effective today, will occasion an ad- justment of rates on certain commodities to Utah common points. Salt Lake people, who but a very short time ago were content to accept all the good things which the Utah reduction brought about, are now crying “wolf’” again and they see in the reduction of six weeks ago the mailed hand of the Union Pacific aiming a blow at their infant industries. At least that is what Salt Lake's newspapers s At Unifon Pacific headquarters they s is preposterous to suppose that the “Over- land” will benefit one community at the ex e of another, but on the contrary all parts of its line must benefit equally. One thing i evident, the Union determined to increase its local business possible, realizing that herein is found the greatest revenue for the company. “Should the Pennsylvania lines refuse to handle a single pound of through freight on its line consigned at its terminals to other line its local business would prove of sufficient importance to pay all fixed charges and still retain an ample sum in the treasury,” remarked a Union Pucific officlal. - “'it \has been some- what of a policy to sacrifice local for through business, but since the segregation of so many important branches the management realizes the necessity of building up its own territory, and to this end rates are being reduced and additional fast train service put on.” The movement of westbound tinues enormously heavy, in marked con- trast with eastbound traffic, and recent re- ports for June show a marked increase over the corresponding period of last year. Offi- cials, however, look for a good eastbound business during the early fall, indications pointing to the belief that 1895 will prove one of the big years in Union Pacific history son for the Utal v it freight con- GENERAL MANAGE { TOWNE DEAD Sudden End of a Long and Brilliant Ruil- way Carecr. SAN FRANCISCO, July 1 second vice president and gene the Southern Pacific, died this his residence in this city. Vice President Towne had been in h all day yesterday and until 5 o'clock trans- acting his usual business, He spent last evening at home and retired in good spirits, but at 2 a. m. complained of violent pains in the stomach, supposedly incident to indiges- tion, from which he suffered. A physician summoned applied remedies which secmed to afford relief. Symptoms of congestion and hemorrhages followed. At 4 a. m. Towne complained of a violent pain in the heart and fitteen minutes later he was dead. When he was in New York five years ago Towne had la grippe, which impaired his heart action. Since then he has had several similar at- tacks, but lately has been in excellent health. Vice President Towne has been in rail- way service since 1855, when he began life as a frelght brakeman on the Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy. Since that time he has successively held the positions of conductor, station agent, yard and trainmaster, assistant superintendent of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy at Chicago, general superintendent of Chicago & Great Eastern, assistant general superintendent of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, general superintendent of the Central Pacific, general manager Central Pacific, sec ond vice president and general manager of Southern Pacific. .

As usual the return portions of Christian Endeavor tickets are demoralizing the east- ern market and a meeting has been called in Chicago of rallroad officials to talk over the situation, and if necessary reduce one way rates to offset the rates made on these returning portions by the brokers into whose hands they gravitate as If oiled. his reduced ticket business is one of the hardest problems with which the passen- ger agent has to contend,” said General Pas- senger Agent Francls, “If all rcads would simply say to Grand Army men, Christian Endeavorers, Baptist Young Pecple, Knights Templar and other big bodies, pay full fare on the railroads, the brokerage business would be knocked higher than Gilroy's kite. But many roads insist on reduced rates and con- sequently business s demoralized.. “The joint agent in Denver for the National Educational association prevented a demorali- zatlon of eassbound rates by rigidly insist- ing on all conditions under which ticke wero granted. The joint agent idea is very old in the railroad world, having been in existence as long back as the old Colorado pool. It may be a little cumbersome, but it certainly prevents rates from going to smash. “So far I have not heard of the Denver market being demoralized on account of the returning portions of these tickets being manipulated by scalpers the Missourl Pacific Changes.

I A. Order. The prospect that Superintendent of Schools Marble may be turned down by the radical American Protective element in the Board of Education is a sur prise to most of the citizens who are inter- ested in the schools, Dr. Marble came Omaha one year ago, backed with a national reputation as an educator and the most flat- tering recomendations from the leaiing edu- cational men of the United States. So con vincing were these recommendations that he was elected almost immediately, Ten out of fourteen votes were cast in his favor, those who voted against him basing their action the plea that the election of a superin tendent was too important a matter hastily disposed of that its final c sideration should be postponed until another meeting, Dr. Marble was first considered as a suc. cessor to Mr. Fitzpatrick at the suggestion of Mr. Fitzpatrick himself. Fitzpatrick wrote to Dr. Marble, informing him that h was about to retire from the Omaha school and asking if he would be a candidate for the position. Dr. Marble replied in th affirmative and was tien requested to come to Omaha, which he did. He was met t Colonel Akin, Clinton N. Powell and A Tukey of the Board of Education and joined at the hotel by Thomas 8! and Babeock. During the next three or four days nearly every member of the board was introduced to Dr. Marble and all were convinced that he was the man for whom they were looking. He was recom mended in the most flattering terms by Nicholas Murray Butler, president of the tional Educational association; John W. Cook, principal of the State Normal school of linois; Superintendent of Schools Max well of Brooklyn; William T. Harris. missioner of education for the United government, and various other men of equal standing, Added to this, he wa most warmly supported by Senator John M Thurston, who had formerly been cne of Dr. Marble'; pupils, and by the mayc and numerous prominent citizens of Worcester, Mas where he 1 served as principal and superintendent for twenty-six ye . AKIN'S TRIP TO CHICAGO. The result was that Dr. Marble was at the next meeting of the board to for the balance of the year. At that time some of the members who are leading the opposition to b re-election were among his warmest suppor: During the ten months that Dr. Marble has been at the head of the Oma schools his work has been generally commended. Aside from his connec fon with the schools he has delivered a number of addresses, both in Omah and other (1 braska cities, which have attracted much at tention. It was known to a few who we familiar with the workings of the board that one or two membel ad taken offence be cause tome of thelr suggestions relative to the conduct of the schoo.s had not been car- ried into effect. It was not generally known however, that the question of Dr. Marble's re-election was considered at length at a meeting of council No. 125, which was held only a day or two ago. Consequently the action of ‘the members who are said to be coutrolled by the dervish protectorate i easily explained.
