Secretary Mor- ton has received through the State depart report from United Consul General Mason af Frankfort methods adopted In some of the citfes to obstruct and discourage the trade American meats. An agent in southern Ger many for a Chicago packing firm complained to the consul that restrictive m: forced by 1 authorities at practically destroyed a formerly trade in that city. Similar restrictions wer threatened at Carlsruh. The matter was at once taken from the United States consulate to the embassy at Berlin, with tion of preventing the objectionable proceed ings threatened at Carlsrub. Meantime J. H. Thierot, United agent at Freiberg, was instructed a thorough investigation as to whether of ficial hostility to American meats in that city was due to the discovery of any diseased or affected meats of American origin, or wa simply the result of the agrarian spirit, which would from self-interest seck to £x all forelgn food products which compete serlously with the domestic supply. The report just received is practically a summary of Mr. Thierol's Investigation. it was learned today that the local -veterinary physicians at Freiberg had visited the prin cipal meat and s age dealers, warning them against the use of fo gn meats, especially those comiug from the United Stater. Deal- ers were requird by decree, moreover, if they continued to offer sueh meats for sale, to post In their shops a Geclaration stating th the American meats offered for sale b passed only a superficial and insufficlent in spection, and that no guarantee of their pur- ity, therefore, could be given In reply to a written protest made b Agent Wohls, it is stated the city ordinance Tequired that all slaughtercd meats to be brought to the city be accompanied by a certificate of inspection or else submitted for inspection to the municipal slaugnter house, and that Amerfcan slaughtered beef, not being provided with any certificate that could be reeognized, must be reinspecte This meat, it Is sta consists skoulders pickled fn brine and press in air tight casks, each barrel belng accos pacied by a United States inspection tag certificate. It is used very largely in Ger- many for sausage and the receipts at Frei- berg have amountad to about 12,000 barrels per annum. In all this importation not a sirgle cask or plece of deccased meat was found. A United States certificate of inspection ac- companying American beef was held by th official veterinary to be insufieient. Many sausage makers refused to post the placard required by the Freiberg dceree, ning it derogatory to their self-respect as well as business interests, and discontinued using American meats rather than compiy All the rausage makers consulted by the Urited States commercial agent were unani- mous that all persons who used American mests were satisfied with them and would have gladly eontinuead their use. The result of the action of the local authorities is that the trade bullt up at practicaply dpstroyed, since the local author- ities would neither accept our certificates nor ‘imspect ‘the meat, preferring to thus publicly discredit our meat products. Meats of precisely similar quality and origin con- tinue to be sold at Frankfort, where they have frequently been examined by mumieipal inspectors and havé always been found whole- some and in good condition. . 13 ment a ny, on rman 1sures en iburg bad prosperous expecta make sul Changes in the Res Announced Ye WASHINGTON, Sept. gram.)—Sccond Licutenant Bl A.

It was somewhat awe inspiring to the big crowd of youngsters that seemed to form the majority of the audience, but the terrific cracking of the big firecrackers and sky rockets made it appear like a second Fourth of July to them, and while they were not opening their mouths with app fallon and rather awe- full “Os,” they gave vent to their approval in applause with mouths, hands and feet. It was_ children’s night, and consequently the program was arranged to catch the faney of the youngsters. The acts of the acrobats were all funny, and many humorous side plays were put in to raise a laugh. There was a profusion of many colored stars and golden and silver streamers in the air almost all the while, and all the fireworks were bril- liant and showy. The crowning piece was a picture of Defender in an outline of fire. This evening will be Gra Army night at Vicksburg, and knowing that Jules Lumbard was present at the capture of this city by Grant, he was requested to sing some of his | patriciic songs just before the battle. Al- though this is a severe strain on account of the surroundings, the warm regard he has shown for the Grand Army led him to con- sent. He will be assisted by Paul Beresford, William 8. McCune, W.

The popularity of the Creighton th=ater matinees is evident to any one observing the throngy of ladles attending each Wednesday and Saturday afternoon, which effect is the risult of the general excellence of the at- tractions offored aud the popularity of tl prices, 25 cents obtaining any reserved seat. “The Charity Ball" is the attraction for this afternoon’s @erformance. During the past summér Al Spink of “The Derby Winner” put in his spare time in St. I revising and generally strengthening “The Derby.Winner,” which opens at the new Creighton Sunday matines, and in Its wecond season on the road it has proven to ba more attractive than ever. Its scenic boauties “have been greatly enhanced by the new and olaborate representation of Genera rant's famous old log cabin, the stable scene, and the representation of the D2 day race. The dramatic action has greatiy fmproved, the situations st ened, the climaxes well worked up, cast added to by the aeduisition of such well known artists as Eddie Giquere, the little comedian with the double voice, Arthur Kherns, th> Dutch comedian, Blanche Boyer and Dora Cole, soubreftes, and Miss Funic Rundy, in the role of the heorine.

The sale of seats for the engagsment of Mr. Roland Reed at Boyd's theater during fair week will open at the box”office of the theater this morning at 9 o'clock, at regular prices. Mr. Resd will opep his engagement tomorrow (Sunday) night in David D. Lloyd and Sydney Rosenfeld’s comedy, “The Poli- ticlan,” ‘repeating the comedy on Monday and Tuesday evenings and at the Wednesday matineg. The story of ““The Politician” deals with the macbinations of General Josish Lim- ber, -a_ scheming politician, who hits upon Peter Wooley A8 a compromise candidate for congress. Wooley is anything but a poli- tician, He is rich, satisfied with his man- ner of life, thoroughly domestic, and loves his home and his garden patch. But Limber gets the women on his side and finally per- suades Wooley to “let his name be used.’” It is used in the most lurid and band-wagon style. The interest culminates in the third act, which represents tne ante-room of the convention hall. Limber works like a horse and carries the day, Wooley being declared tho nominez, The lover of Wooley's daugh- ter is nominated by the other side, which causes their engagement to be broken, and Limber falls in love with Wooley's niece, while her aunt sets her cap for Limber. All the complications are straightened out in the last act, which takes place in the dining room in Wooley's residence, where election returns are received. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings Mr. Reed will appear in the comedy, “Lend Me Your Wife,” ‘and on Friday and Saturday venings and Saturday matinee, “Innocent as a Lamb " John Grifiith and his company will close the prosent engagement at Boyd's today by giv- ing two performances of “Fdust,” a matinee at 2:30 this afternoon and the regular even- ing performance at 8.

J, Gunder- man of Dimondale, Mich., we are permitted to make this extract: “I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. King's New Discovery, as the results were most marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of the Baptist church at Rives Junction she was brought down with pneumonia succeeding Ia grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little interruption and it seemed as if she could not survive them. A friend recommended Dr. King's New Dis- covery; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in results.”” Trial bottles free at Kuhn & Co. drug store. Regular size 50c and $1.00.

Ayers, 1801 South Thirteenth street, was held up last night at the south- west corner of Hanscom park about §:30. The robbery was committed by three men and the doctor thinks he can identify one of them should the police capture him. A description of the men was telephoned to police headquarters. The doctor was robbed of $30 in cash. He had left his watch and other jewelry at home. He had been out to the new fair grounds in the afterncon and was on his way home when assaulted. *“1.was driving home from the fair grounds, where I had been all the afternoon,” sald he. “I had just reached the southwest corner of the park when a man, who had been walking along ahead of me, turned around and as I drew near him hailed me. I thought he wished to ask me some question and stopped my horse. The man was tall, wore a moustache, and was dressed In 4 dark suit of clothes. As scon as I came to him he turned quickly and said, ‘Give me your money.’ I was so surprised that I did not comply at first, and he snapped a pistol in my face. I then threw up my hands. Then two other men sprang out from the bushes that border the road at that point One took hold of the horse’s head and the other two, getting up behind me, went through my pockets. They took everything 1 had, and, seemingly not content with that, scattered my glasses, keys and notebooks in the road. When they had finished one of them said, ‘Is that all?’ and, letting go of my horse, they quickly disappeared in the trees to the south of the park. I drove to No. 10 fire engine house and secured a lan- tern, and, with the help of a man named Bossert, went back to the place where I had been held up and gathered up what few things I could find. I saw nothing of the men.”” The doctor was uninjured and was very glad to escape as easily as he did. el e Bad Darkey Arrested.

Ludyer T the best worker of “sym- pathy gags” in the metropoils, nas succeeded once more {y foreing the city to provide him with what he calls the luxuries of lite. Mr. Tardy was arrested, relates the New York Sun, by a policgman of the Mulberry street station, and, gn the station house blotter op- posite his name appears the word “‘insanity.” It was written there by a brand new ser- geant at the suggestion of the probationary policeman who arrested Mr. Tardy, and it was with a voice full of sympathy that the sergeant asked the officer for detalls. All the while the unfortunate at the rail was moaning and crying: ‘Oh, Mary! Mary! fer you ter bring me ter this. Oh, that I could see you now as I used ter look at yer in the little ivy entwined cot- tage. Yer hon * turning to the sergeant, “did yer ever love er woman?"’ The sergeant almost sobbad aloud. “I did,”” went on Mr. Tardy, “‘and this is what the love of a woman brought Ludyer Tardy to. I was a struggling young artist when T first sean Mary's eyes, and such eyes! my God, such eyes! Here Mr. Tardy fell to the floor and began to froth at the mouth. This exhibition lasted for over a minute, and then relief came to the unfortunate and he began to sing: Old love letters, tied with ribbon blue, Letters from a'sweetheart that 1 once thought true. “This is really serfous,” sald the sergeant “I must send in a call for an ambulance at oh Do," said the probationary policeman, who had his handkerchief out, “I'm sure Mr. Roosevelt would approve And £0 a call for an ambulance was sent in and the probationary policeman and the new sergeant carried Mr. Tardy into the back room and laid him on a bench. Here Mr Tardy began to have spasms again, and he rolled from the bench to the floor and twisted himself around, raving aboui Mary's eyes, The station house door flew open and an ambulance surgeon, carrying a little black bag, entered. “Ah, doctor,” sald the new sergeant, “this is a case of the mind, not the body." The scrgeant led the way into the back room, where Mr. Tardy was making frantic efforts to touch the tip of his nose with his left heel. Just look at the poor fellow, new sergeant. “I see him,” said the surgeon, him before.” “Da you think you are in time to save him?” “1 guess 50,” sald the surgeon. “Go and get me a large club and drive a long nail through the end of it.” Mr. Tardy stopped writhing for a moment and glanced at the surgeon out of the corner of his eye. “And say,” called the surgeon to the ser- geant, “it you've go a good sharp knife, bring it along, too. May want to make some incisions in his face.” Mr. Tardy gava a violent shudder and then rising to his fest, said faint “I feel bethar nbw,” “T thought, you would,” said the surgeon, and then he | explained to tho sergemt’ that s prisoner was the biggest “gratter” in the city. Tardy got' to 'Bellevue all the same. Hc has been a prisgner in every station house and prison in town, and there isn't a hospital where, at spme time or another, he hasn't occupied a cot.. .Ha secks arrest constantly, and at Bellevue thoy have had him so many times that they put him to work the moment he gets in ‘howadays. HIS game is free board and 13dgtng. ~ Pretending to be taken suddenly 1l oF tq be Insano is his specialty. He prefers a hospital to a prison, Occa- sionally when overcome by thirst, Tardy will take a chance at jollying a bartender, and it was attempting this that got him into trpuble on Whdnesday: night. He' entered a Houston street saloon, and, walking up to the bar with great dignity, sald in his oiliest tones: “Ah, me, but this is a delightful evening, a trifle warm,~and (a glass of beer, please) hard on the throat, but then we Americans, particularly us New Yorkers, must put up with thess sudden changes of weather and —ah, thank you,” as the bartender placed a large schooner of beer in front of him. The bartender didn’t look overconfident, but the flow of eloguence allayed his suspicions for the moment. Nevertheless, he gave a secret signal to the free lunch man, and that indi- vidual dropped his cheese kuife and picking up a bung starter wandered over toward the door. Tardy observed the move, but dodg- ing bung starters is part of his business, sn be simply went on: “Yes, indeed, this {s remarkable weather, and ter think of us makin’ it right here,” with a glance at the wind machine. *“Why, that thing there, sir, is the greatest labor- sav'n’ machine of the age.” yer wires is crossed, yer oft {4 the bartender scornfully. “But I'll prove it, sir," went on Tardy with lofty dignity, and he placed his schooner of beer in front of the wheel, which caused the foam to fly off in all directions. “There, sir, what man needs go ter the effort of blowin' off der collar of his beer when cne er them things is around?” Then Mr. Tardy drained the glass and dodged past the lunch man, who had dropped his bung starter and was wiping the foam from his eyes. But the bartender jumped the bar and caught Tardy at the door. Then he and the lunch man made a mop out of him and wound up their exercise by throw- ing him out on the road. The probationary policeman came along at that moment, and Tardy, fearing he might be arrested for at- tempted swindling, immediately threw him- self into a fit, which resulted in his being conveyed tenderly to the station house. Tardy “kin t'row a fit,” as he expresses it, or do his crazy act, on a second’s notice, and he al- ways does it in the most picturesque fashion. Occasionally when he tries it on a police- man who knows him he gets roughly handled, but as a rule he looks out carefully and sees who's on the beat before he does his little act. Tardy was greatly impressed by Bomb Thrower Norcross's attack on Russ:ll Sage three years ago, and he made up his mind that bomb throwing was a good insanity racket. About a week after the Norcross affair ho ran into the office of a big brewery up town, with a small package in his hend, and yelled out: “Give me $100,000 or I throw it!" ““Hold on!" cried the cashier, turning pale. “Wait a moment, for God's sake!" Not a second!” yelled Tardy, and he made a move to throw the package, while the book- keeper, cashier and clerks dropped behind their desks. ', Then with a yell Tardy hurled against the wall the package, which contained a piece of calf’s liver. Fheiliver stuck there, and the clerks, seeing'that it wasn't a bomb, jumped up and ran to the window, yelling for the police, A poNétman came rushing In and Tardy was soon on his way to the station house, Two ' 'weeks around the Bellevue hospital grounds,” inhaling the fresh river breezes and living on first class food, were his reward for this little performance. Tardy has @ trick of going crazy in public places, and sorme fveeks ago he wandered into a branch posoffice up town, worked his way into & orowd; and then began to swing his arms around and yell at the top of his voice. In about half & winute he owned the place. Everybody fied it top speed, and it was nof until’ Tardy had ‘exhausted himself and lay panting on the. ground that even a policeman could be induced to enter the place again. Three or four timks during the past year the man has cleaned out cable cars in the same way. Telling thé story of his life for any- thing from drinks to money s another game of Tardy's, and, although his tales differ, Tardy always figures as a broken hearted man. Raving over Mary's eyes is really a fine pléce of WOTK, and has won much money for the tramp. ———— *Executed Charles ey, Murderer. ST.

Uncertainty as to the intention of the government bond syndicate to maintain the reserve at the century mark and as to its ability to do so had disturbed the moneyed interests increasingly throughout the week. A crisis was reached this morn- ing when the announcement was made that the firm of Lazard-Freeres, which is a mem- ber of the bond syndicate, had engaged $2,600,000 of gold for shipment. This an- nouncement naturally gave rise to the im- pression that the syndicate had withdrawn from its controlling position behind the throne and it sent quotations tumbling In Wall street, besides starting stories that the syndicate had dissolved, that a bond issue was imminent, and that the treasury was fast drifting back to its old position of the dark days of last winter, Before the afternoon had passed several of the city banks had come to the aid of the subtreasury with deposits of gold made in exchange for greenbacks. Explanations had been made by members of the syndicate and the firm which started the panic, and quiet had been restored when the moneyed insiitu- tions closed their doors for the day. The %old deposits made by the banks will offset the shipments of tomorrow. The Hanover National bank set the example with a de- posit of $500,000. That made $3,400,000 in gold that the bank has paid in, President Howard sald, since the last loan was made, and the American Exchange National bi also paid into the treasury $200,000, and the National Bank of @mmerce followed suit with another $200,000. With reference to this deposit President Sherman sa'd that the $200,000 represented one-third of his bank's gold holdings, and that if all the banks con- tributed gold in the same proportions thore would be no further difficulty. The Naticnal City bank is credited with an intention to de- it $600,000, or double that amount. It ls expected in banking circles that the deposits of gold for greenbacks will reach $6,000,000 this’ week. ALMOST REACHED THE RECORD. The known »hipments to Europe tomorrow will be $2,500,000 by Lazard-Freeres, $1,000,- 000 by Crossman & Bros., $600,000 by Hoskier, Wood & Co., $200,000 by Hard & Rand and $100,000 by Nesslage & Fuller, while Handy & Herman will forward between $150,000 and $200,000. This will make a total for the week of $7,200,000, the largest weekly outflov on record, except the $7,700,000 sent out in one week last January, when the drain upon the reserve reached is highest tide. Explanztions of the position of the bond syndicate toward the treasury and of the reasons impelling Lazard-Freeres to combat the policy of thelr colleagues were secured by the Assoclated press. The following statement was authorized by the syndicate tonight: “The impression has been general that the members of the syndicate entered into an agreement with the United States treasury to maintain the $100,000,000 reserve until Oc tober 1, and that upon that date said obliga tion will cease. Such is not the case. “The bond syndicate fulfilled all its obii gations to the government in June last and has not since been bound in any way to the treasury. It is_true It has from time to time since last June paid over various sums In gold coin To the treasury which have suf- ficed to maintain the reserve, but it has done s0 voluntarily and will continue to do so from the same spirit and for the same motive. “So far as October 1 is concerned, it has no relation to the action of the syndicate, and it will continue to deposit gold till Novem- ber 1, and December 1, and January 1, if necessary, and if existing conditions make it feasible to do so. But neitber the syndicate nor any one else can control the elements, But the idea that its relations to the treasury situation will be any different on or after October 1 than they are now and have been all along is erroncous and should be cor rected.” SYNDICATE STILL IN THE FIELD. J. Pierrepont Morgan, the Mead of the bead syndicate, spoke reassuringly of the outisok to a representative of the Associated press. He sald: “T=e bond syndicate is still in the fled. There has been mo rupture. The syndicate will continue to do all it can to help maintain the reserve at $100,000,000. The obligation of the syndicate expired, however, some time ago.” Mr. Mor- gan expressed surprise at the slow movement of the cotton crop and the present scarcity of the bills against breadstuffs. He sald that undoubtedly the offering of these bills would be daily increased In the next few weeks and thus a safeguard against exports. The following statement was made in writ- ing by Messrs. Lazard-Freeres: ‘‘Hoping that bills of exchange against merchandise exports would come in the market in fair amounts during the first half of September we continued for a long time to supply our customers with bills of exchange, for which we could not at the time find cover. A com- bination of circumstances leaves the market bare of commercial bills and makes neces- sary the shipment of gold to cover part of the accumulated indebiedness and to con- tinue the daily demand of the trade. The reasons for these conditions are in part the late cotton crop and the slow movement thereof to Kurope, which is holding large quantities of cotton at cheap prices and is indisposed to buy freely at quotations now ruling. Further reasons are the poor de- mand for our wheat and the low prices it brings, and the cheapness of money at this center, which makes it undesirable for Euro- pean bankers to increase their loanable funds here.” In reply to questions, a member of the firm said he desired to state there was no special significance in the shipment of gold, but that it had to go to meet a temporary emergency, and that with the moving of the cotton crop in a few weeks the whole diffi- culty would adjust itself. NEWS CREATED SURPRISE. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—The news that $4,600,000 had beén withdrawn today for ex- port from the subtreasury at New York was recelved here with surprise, and the an- nouncement created, for the moment, some- | thing like a sensation in the Treasury de- partment. This feeling, however, was not shared by the high officials, who apparently regard the withdrawal as an incident to the speculative spirit that seems to pervade Wall street at this time. The heavy with- drawals that have besn made recently are declared to have been warranted by the present legitimate business conditions, or the legitimate demands for gold abroad. By some officials it s thought that the with- drawals are made with the sole purpose of forcing another bond issue. It can be stated, however, on excellent authority, that there will not ‘b another issue of bonds. The rea- son given is that none will be needed. These officials state the Morgan-Belmont syudicate, under the terms of its contract, undoubt: edly will protect the gold reserve against the Inroads of specuiators, and will see to it that a reasonable balance is maintained No doubt is expressed that us soon as the grain shipments from the northwest have tully set in there will be an abundant supply of foreign bills on the market to meet every demand, and the withdrawals, it is thought, must necessarily cease. Today's statement of the condition of the treasury . shows: Avallable cash balance, $181,962,680; gold reserve, $99,568,574. The announcement that New York banks had’ deposited $2,400,000 in gold with the promise of a considerable addition to thet amount was quite as muca a surprise at the Treasury department as the earller news of the withdrawals. This prompt action of the banks was favorably commented upon, re- lioving a depression and anxiety that per- vaded the department this morning. Bven those who, by reason of their long experi- ence, are best able to judge of the situation, express themselves at 'a loss to account f the continued and apparently increasing de- financial condition of the country contained 80 _many contradietory situations, and never before have the officials been unable to give an inteiligent forecast of what was likely to result from the next conditions. At this time, they add, everything seems going coun ter to the general expectation Several months ago {t was stated that the supply of whisky withdrawn from bond just befora the anticipated iner in the in ternal revenuo tax was about exhausted, and that the mext few weeks would see a material Increass in the revenues from that source. But the receipts have fallen below expecta tions, with no prospect of an advan The recelpts from customs sources were also con- fidently expected to advance at a rapid It was argued the stocks of merchandise in the country were practically exhausted, and that of necessity importations would show a marked improvement. It was predicted also that as the canning season approached the sugar importations would add materially to the receipts, and yot none of those expecta tions have been fully realized. Though the receipts from internal revenue and customs show some improvement, there is a wide difference between the actual figures and confident expectations of the officials, Whether the avticipated cotton and grain shipments will relieve the situation o far as gold ex ports are concerned remains to be seen The amount of the exportations of gold d ing the last twenty months is unprecedented Since January 1 of last year the gold coln and bullion exported from the United States aggregates about $169,284,300, while the im- portations during the same period amount to only $48,813.500, which leaves the excess of exports over fmports about $120,470,800. 29332920030003000¢ SOUTH OMAHA NEWS § oocereccootone eoncontens In response to a call issued by four mem- bers of the republican central committee for a mass meeting, about 200 persons gath- ered at Pivonka's hall to form a South Omaha republican club.

Linton was last night arrested for abusing his wife, although he asserts that he was the one who was being abused. The trouble arose over a request brought by a boy of the family from his teacher asking for the age and birthplace of his mother. Mrs. Linton was not at home, and consequently Linton went to her mother to get the desired information. The mother, however, said that she did not know how ol her daughter was or where she was born, although she did re- member that she had given birth to her. This wes a kncckdown blow for Linton, and when als wife came home he demanded an explana- tion. Linton says that thereupon his wife began to beat him, and when he threatened to call In a policeman she went out herself and got one and had him placed under arrest He had just left the jail, as he had been ur- rested the day before for being drunk.
