Says She Was Not the Woman Who Stole Robbin' Meart. ‘A Mrs. Fisher has played havoe in the matrimonial arrangements of members of the Robbins family. Artlur M. Robbins has for tome time been engaged -as assistant suporintendent in the Pullman Palace Car company's headquarters in Omaha. He had a lucrative job at $100 per month until last spring, when he was dis- charged on account of a love affair, it the story of his wife, Josephine Robbins, cor- roctly gauges' the truth. Mrs. Robbins eays there wa¥ a woman at the bottom of the do- mestic woes which have overtaken her house- hold, That woman s Mrs, Fisher, “first and real name unknown.” Mrs. Robbins has sued her for $10,000, “This s a large sum of money to demand of any one says Mrs, Tulle Fisher in open court, “and one should know for a certalnty,” she adds, “whether he Is the party requested . to pay this amount of damages.” Mrs. Tulle Fisher affirms that #he doos.not know whether she is the party and here the difficulty arises. She has filed an answer in -district court, explaining her predicament to the judges. Mrs. Tulie Fisher states to the court that she is a woman of 65 years of age. She belleves she is not the woman whose money Mrs. Robbins is after. Nevertheless she has been summoned into court. A complete denial Is entered against all the allegations advanced by Mrs. Robbins. The denfal of the story is a denfal of the allegation of Mre. Robbins, that a Mrs, Fisher secured the affections of Arthur Robbins, her husband, by use of seductive arts, in’ consequence of which he forgot his wife and lost his position. el SO TO SUCCEED REV.

CAPTAIN SUMNER FOUND ILTY. cglected 1ix Duty in the Docking Colnmbin. Sept. 13.—The Navy de- partment toddy made public tion in the case of Captain George W. Sumacr, late in command of the United States cruiser Colum- bia, who was tricd recently by court-martial at the Brooklyn mavy yard on charges grow- ing out of the injury sustained by his vessel in docking at Southampton in July last. The first charge was culpable inefficiency in the performance of duty. The court found him guilty in a less degree than charged, in that he 2id not fully perform his duty in seeing proper preparations made for the doeking and gecing that the supporting docks were in proper condition for receiving and sustaining her weight. The court ignored that portion the charge, alleging that as a consequence of that failure the bozt was subjected to se- vere strain, and causing damage to her hull and mecesistat repairs costing about £1,000 he captain was found guilty ote the second rge of suffering a vessel of tho na fn violation of the naval regulations. specification under this charge, however, that he suffered the vessel to remain under severe strain without causing the dock to be flooded, was disproved. He was found guilty of the third charge, neglect of duty, and the specifi- cation under’ that charge was proved, namely, that he pald the charge of docking without protes The sentence of the court is as follows: “To be suspended from duty only, for a perlod of six months on walting orders pay, and to be reprimanded by the honorable secretary of the navy.” The action of the department has been stated to Captain Sumner with a copy of the proceedings, findings and sentence of the court and the statement that these are approved. He is informed that the publica- tion of these in general orders is regarded as sufficlent compliance with that portion of the sentence calling for a reprimand by the sec- retary of the navy. OUR TRADE RELATIONS WITH PAIN % More Than She the Haughty Don. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—The food products which Spain exports to the United States form the subject of a recent report by Consul General Bowen. He says the average of these exports is about $3,600,000 per year, while the fmports of American articles into Spain s about $18,000,000. The principal ex- ports to this country are garlic, ofl, wine, grapes, raising, almonds, filberts, ~olives, anfse, saffron, brandy liquors, onions, pre- serves, syrups, glucose, mineral waters and pastes’ for soups. Mr. Bowen says that the American tariff on wines is so nearly pro- hibitory that it has caused an almost com- plete cessation of the shipment of Spanish wines to the United States except sherry. A considerable trade has continued in this wine, but that is falling off owing to the com- petition from California. The same is true ot ralsing and other grapes. “In short,” he says, “It looks as If the exports of Spain to the United States will decrease from all ports except Barcelona."” Mr. Bowen is of the oplaion, however, that the imports from the United States into Spain will increase, as the demand there for cotton, petroleum and stoves grows every year, and the Americans are persistent in their efforts to introduce other articles, such as wheat, lard, agri- cultural implements and sewing machines. , Marine Ba A Stay at Home. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—The Marine band will not be present at the dedication of the Chickamauga National Military park un- less private means Is found to supply the money for its expenses, as it has been dis- covered that there are no funds in either the War or the Navy department for the pay- ment of the expenses of the band on the trip, The Navy department officials are unwilling that any of the regular appropriations for that department should be diverted to this use and there I8 no fund in the War depart- ment available except the $20,000 especially appropriated for the park opening. This fund is now 80 nearly exhausted that it has been decided to use none of it on the Marine and. Grent Incrensc in Exports. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—According to a report furnished the State department by Consul Grinnell, the declared exports from the Manchester (England) district to the United States for the year ending August 31, last, amounted to $13,067,318, as agalnst $7,- 413,646 for the previous year. The two periods practically cover respectively the fisst year of the operation of the Wilson tarift and the last of the McKinley law. New Ruling for Postmasters. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13, —In consequence of complaints received by the Postoffice de- partment orders have been issued forbidding postmasters to go within the delivery of other offices for the purpose of soliciting the execution of pension vouchers, and thereby increasing the fees of their offices. A post- master must execute vouchers only for those within the delivery of his office. ——————— DEATH OF DR, SAMUEL WAKEFIELD Was Probably the Oldest Methodist Minister in the World. PITTSBURG, Pa., Sept. 13.—Rev. Dr. Samuel Wakefield, the veteran Methodist minister, died today at West Newton. Dr. Wakefleld was said to be the oldest Mason and the oldest preacher of the Methodist Episcopal church and likely the oldest of any denomination in the world. He has been a member of the Masonic fraternity for al- most. seventy-five years. His children aré all living. His career as a Methodist minister is part of the history of the church in western Pennsylvania. He has preached occasionally in later years and has enjoyed fairly good health until recently, though he has broken down somewhat since the death of his wife some months ago. His grandmother, Mary Wade, was a preacher, having been ordained in the ministry by John Calvert. He was or- dained in 1817. He published several books on theology and music when he was com- paratively young which made him widely known. His principal theological work, “Wakefleld's Theology,” has become a classic in the literature of the Methodist Episcopal church. The time of the funeral has not yet been determined. —_—— Assnulted a Judge in Court, CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 13.—When Judge Moon adjourned cireuit court he stepped down from the bench and Deputy Sheriff Poe sprang forward from the crowd and hit him in the tace with his fist. Immediately the greatest excitement prevailed. Between the efforts of Judge Moon to reach Poe's head with his cane and Poe's endeavor to get another lick at Judge Moon, together with the efforts of peacemakers to hold the two men off, it was a lively scene. The trouble grew out of the Judge's action in disallowing a fee and lec- turing the deputy on some alleged Irregu- larity. — Enforeing the Geary Act. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.~Today there began a systematic rald on Chinatown by federal authorities. Every Chinese laborer who cannot produce a satisfactory certificate, accompanied by a photograph, will be ar- rested and held to answer under the deporta. tion law, commonly known as the *Geary act.” The decision of the collector of the port as to the right of the Chinese to remain here will be final. Attorney General Har- mon_authorized - Marshal Baldwin to begin the raid on Chinatown. rtiiad Cut the Rate on Wine Shipments, SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.—The South- ern Pacific has announced a new rate on wine shipments over the Sunset route. Every point in the state is to be given the benefit of a 50 cent rate on wine shipments to New Orleans and New York. The new rule is in- tended to kill oft shipment of wine via Pa- cific Mail, i Crops Dam d hy an Overflow, NEVADA, Mo., Sept. 13.—The overflow of the Marmaton river, caused by the recent beavy ralafall, has covered thousands of acres of growing crops, and the damage will be very great, to be hazarded | LIGHTED THE GAS TO DO IT Burglars Loot the Dougherty Residence in Family's Absence, RANSACKED EVERY DRAWER AND CORNER Jewelry and Other Property of t Valu ighteen Hundre % Carrlfed O by the Lelsurely Thieves. Thursday evening between the hours of 8:30 and 11 o'clock the residence of John M. Dougherty, 2104 Webster street, was en- tered by burglars, and jewelry and other articles of value were stolen. Mr. Dougherty and his family left home in the early part of the evening to visit Courtland beach. The house maid and the man about the house left the premises shortly afterward and went down town. When the members of the family re turned, at about 11 o'clock, they did not go into the house at once, but remained on the front porch, When Mr. Dougherty went into his sleep- ing apartment, from the appearance of the room he surmised that burglars had gone through his home. Burcau drawers were emptied of their contents, beds were stripped of their covering, and the b:dding strewn all over the rovm. He called to his family, and an investigation was instituted. Every room, from cellar to garrett, had been searched by the robbers, and the furnishings, wardrobes, bureaus and wash stands had been broken into and their contents had been thrown about in all directions. The following is but a_partial list of the plunder secured by the burglars, who sys- tematically and completely did their work of robbery: One gold chronometer, studded with diamonds; two large diamond rings, Tiffany settings; one small ring, large diamond set- ting; one large diamond stud; one pair diamond cuff buttons; one diamond brooch; one heavy gold ring; one diamond star, withy a number of large stones; one gold medal made from a $20 gold piece and set with diomonds; one Russian leather shopping bag, Witk purse and several articles of value; one siiver mounted carving knife and fork; one- half dozen solid silver spoons; one dozen solid silver knives and forks: one Elk's emblem, studded with diamonds; one jeweled bon-bon box; one Florentine, mosaic, with locket. To the foregoing list there will probably be added a goodly number of articles that have not been missed as yet. The value of jewelry and valuables taken by the night prowlers is $1,800, as nearly as can be estimated. Entrance to the residence was gained through a rear window. The sash was pried up with a Jimmy. The burglars had evi- dently had the house spotted for some time and knew of the absence of the inmates. They had lighted the gas and-made a (hor- ough search of every hole and corner of the big mansion. There were in different rooms many things of great value in the way of bric-a-brac, which had been gathered up and left behind for the reason that they were in- convenient to carry. Pty MATES TO THE FAIR. CHEAP Rallronds Put the Fare Down to the Lowest Notch. No person who lives in Nebraska will have to put up more than a $5 bill to pay his fare to and from Omaha during state fair week. The railroads have taken a lively interest in the plans to get crowds to the fair, and tha latest order places the rates at a lower figure than have ever been offered in Ne- braska. The one fare for the round trip to all points in Nebraska was considered a liberal reduction, but the Union Pacific passenger people had a desire to do better and decided to make a blanket rate on an points west of Grand Island of $5.50 for the round trip, including admittance to the fair grounds. Other roads have followed suit, and the blanket rate has been adopted by the Burlington and Elkhorn roads. This reduction means a big thing for pa- trons of the fair. It means that from any point in the state where the single fare to Omaha is $5 or more, tickets will be sold to Omaha and return for $5, with a G0-cent coupon attached, good for admission to the state fair. Railway Notes and Personals. Suvperintendent P. J. Nichols of the Ne- breska division of the Unfon Pacific is mak- ing a trip over the road. John W. Nute of tne St. Louis Car Wheel company was in the city yesterday and left on his way to the Pacific coast. The platform ticket office at the Webster street depot will be opened Monday morning for the accommodation of state fair travelers, J. N. H. Patrick, government director of the Union Pacific, has refurned from his trip over the lines of the system and will go gat next wesk to attend the directors’ meet- ng. FOR AN EARLY Mr. Connell Will Push the Eleventh Street Viaduct Repair Case. City Attorney Connell leaves on Tuesday to press upon the attemtion of the supreme court the necessity of an early settlement of the Eleventh strezt viaduet ease. He will ask to have the date fo ra hearing set down at the earliest day possible, After Judge Ambrose had rendered his decision, the Burlington road appealed the case, The supreme court, on the represen- tation of the city of Omaha, agreed to ad- vance the case, and it is belleved that it wiil be one of those to merit an immediate con- sideration. Speaking of the case the city attorney sald that the controversy involved was of the first moment to Omaha. “The city would be abso- lutely helpless,” he said, “if it did not have power to compel contribution from railroad companies for the purpose of defraying the xpenses of viaduets over the tracks. The use of viaduets is made necessary in cities where the travel is extensive and continuous and the law should be settled. 1f the de- cision is favorable to the city I think it will not be long before the controversy will be adjusted. Judge Ambrose made some intima- tion about the need of taking testimony to pro rate the expenses of the repairs among the other roads. He referred to the Mil- waukee and the Rock Island roads. I think an ordinance can be passed which will easily adjust that.” —_—— HE MAKES A SETTLEMENT, Female Robber Can Keep Whitney Cash it She Will Return Papers. ‘W. D. Whitney, the man who was held up by a colored woman last Sunday night and relieved of $150 in cash and about $8,000 in certificates of deposit on a southern bank, now makes a proposition that if the “lady of color” will kindly ante up the certificates she may keep the cash. He avers that no questions will be asked and that there will be no prosecution. He does not even care for a personal interview with the party of dusky antecedents and only prays for the return of the papers, as they are of mo use to her and are of great importance to him. Mr. Whitney says that he hopes the papers will be returned. He adds that if they ars he will go on his way rejoicing and will keep away from strange females hereafter. —_————— Jenkins Does Some Talking. Some criticlsm has been passed by the county commissioners against the promis- cuous bringing of suits agalnst justices. In explaining the release of Justice Levy under the charges made against him, Commissioner Jenkins says: “It shows that parties have engaged themselves in taking the time of the board in regard to suits brought without foundation. 1In this case it was even found necessary to allow several amendments to the original charges. Then they were dis~ missed.” HAYDEN: PROYISION XAND : GROGCEKERY SXALK VlSl()nS.
