Cut Anybody's Price in Two Tomorrow ~—e= FIGURES ARE HARD TO GET Mortgage Indebtedness of the Olarke Drug Oompany is Ninety-Five Thousand. GEVENTY-FIVE THOUSAND UNSECURED Fourteen Frelght Cars and Some Other Property Durned in the Burlington Yards—Methodists v Elect Delegntes. LINCOLN, Sept. 19.—(Special)—Definite ros as to the labllities of the H. T. Clarke i)‘r:. company, which falled yesterday, are dificult to obtain. Parties In charge of the assets say the mortagage indebtedness Is $95,- 000. The first mortgage covers some $68,500, comprised In claims of the First Natlonal ank of Omaha for $35,000, the First National tlnk of Lincoln for $30,000 and Mrs. Eva M. Mills for $3,500. There Is a second mortgage for $24,000, covering claims of a bank at La Salle, Ill, for $5,000, of a New York bank for. $8,000 and one of Hiland H. Wheeler for $1,000. It is sald by a bank official familiar with the affairs of the company that the total Ylabilities will run up to about §170,000. The stock, he thinks, will involce $100,000, while the company has accounts and bills recelvable which may realize $80,000 and the real es- tate occupied. This is a four-story brick block with a frontage of fifty feet. This property Is estimated to be worth $50,000, with an $8,000 mortgage on it. The assets, 1t 1s belleved, will realize nearly enough to tisty all liabflitles. The company was first jzed to carry on business in Omal gn 1887 the Omaha plant was disposed of an the Lincoln house established. The stock company operating it comprised H. T. Clarke, John C. Clarke, Charles J. Daubach and W. C. Mills. The capital stock was $200,000. fThe firm did a successful business up to a year ago. Drowth and financial. depression made serious Inroads upon the volume of trade. Up to that period the company did & business of between a half & million and was president; W, B. Clarke, treasurer; W. C.. Mills, assistan, and Charles J. Daubach, ecretary and manager. It s said by an of- ficlal of the First Natlonal bank of Lincoln ‘that H. T. Clarke possesses real estate worth 32,000,000 or $3,000,000. Upon this he Is carrylng heavy financial obligations upon which he is unable to realize. Tho statement that the liabllities of the company will pass the half million mark is strenuously denled. FOURTEEN CARS BURNED. At 2 o'clock this morning fire at the Bur- lington yards destroyed about $10,000 worth of property. At the office of Supsrintendent Biguell the following figures are given out: ¥ourteen empty freight cars, $6,000; lumber ehed and contents, $3,000; foreman's office nd contents, $50; blacksmith shop and tools, 100; carpenter shop, $400; total $9,550. The fire will interfere with repalr work for some time. Great difficulty was experienced by the department in getting to the scene owing to_the network of tracks to be crossed. M. McKinnon, for ten years car account- ant of the Burlington, resigned his pos tion. He has been succeeded by G. P. Fa can. John Banks has been appointed a sistant night yardmaster to succeed W. A Manchester. Elmer Hutton has been promoted 1o the office of the storekeeper's department. At the session of the Methodist conference this morning Dr. C. C. Lasby was elected to head the delegation to the general confer- ‘e to be held In New York. Dr. Hunting- ton of Trinity church and Chancellor Crook of Wesleyan university were the others se- lected. This afternoon was the anniversay of the Woman's Foreign Missionary soclety, Rev. O. Y. Dudley this evening dellvered @ missionary sermon. Tomorrow evening ishop Newman will deliver an address on *Bducational Interest Adams Bros. informs the district court that the Western Manufacturing company owes them & considerable amount, but that the company has fraudulently made the Lin- eoln Savings bank and Coffin & Stone pre- dorred creditors, transferring to them nearly $14,000 worth of notes and accounts. The plaintiffs ask that a receiver be appointed to take charge of the notes and other papers glven to the bank and Coffin & Stone, and uset he same for the benefit of all creditors alike. In answer to the petition of State Auditor Moore in the district court the Omaha Life association of Omaha says that it filed with the auditor certain bonds as security for pol- icy holders, but that it subsequently trans- ferred them to the Equitabls Mutual In- surance company of Waterloo, Ia., and that they now belong to that company. The Equitable filed an answer also, saying that it owns the bonds and asks the court to make the auditor turn them over. Dr. Bently, who attends Mrs. Daugherty, the old woman who was severely burned by an ol lamp last night, said today that it was doubtful it she could recover. Her ad- vanced age and feeble constitution combine to render such a result improbable, BERGE-LANSING CASE SUBMITTED. The supreme court has under advisement the case of George W. Berge against L. W. Lansing. This is a petition for mandimus to compel Lansing to turn over to Berge the office of county judge of Lancaster county. It was argued this afternoon and’ submitted. A year ago Berge was on the populist ticket for county judge. The republicans made no nomination and there was no opposition to Berge. The republicans nominated no one, contending that the term of Lansing, the in- cumbent, did not expire that year. The board of examiners of applicants for admission to the bar under the new law has been appointed by the supreme court. They are: John C. Watson, Nebraska City; John R. Webster, Lincoln; John H.

FAIR VISITORS' NARROW ESCAF Accldent at Plattsmouth Which Threntened Many Lives. PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., Sept. 19. Telegram.)—This afterncon at 3:45, shortly after the westbound passenger train had pulled out, two freight cars blew out of a switch in the upper yards and forced by the wind came tearing down through the yards past the depot, where a few moments before were standing about 500 passengers ready to g0 to Omaha, and owing to the short curve the cars came around In making their exit from the upper yard into the town would have rendered it utterly impossible for some of these standing on the track to have gotten out of the way. By the presence of mind and agllity of Yardmaster Manchester in boarding the rapidly moving cars and setting the brake what might have been a serious smashup was prevented. There never was a time when Plattsmouth presented such a deserted look as tonight. The business houses were all closed up this afternoon at 4 p. m. to allow the clerks and merchants with thelr families to go to the fair. Every train out on the B. & M. for Omaha today has been compeiled to add from one to five coaches at this point. The count of passengers at noon show between 1,500 and 2,000 were in attendance from this point, while Murray sent ninty-six, Mynard fifty- two, Loulsville about sixty and Cedar Creek about 100. A small delegation went from Cullom and quite a crowd from Union. If every county in the state could folow Cass' pace the grounds would not hold one-half the crowd. The superintendent of the bicycle races at the county fair here next week has all ar- rangements completed to take the best of care of all riders interested in any of the events. Each day adds more interest to the affair and points to the greatest success for those managing the meet. At 7 o'clock this evening us Mrs. William Wolforth, who lives near Happy Hollow, a tough part of Plattsmouth, was going home alone, she was attacked by some unknown man, who struck her a blow above the left eye with sufficient force to render her un- consclous for some time. When she ze- covered consclousness it was discovered her only loss was her butcher pass book, she having spent all her money before starting home. She came down town Immediately and notified the police. (Special RIPENING CORN VERY RAPIDLY, All Nebraska Treated to a Scorch- ing Hot W RANDOLPH, Neb., Sept. 19.—(Special Tel- egram.)—For three days Randolph has had hot winds from the south, today belng fear- ful. The air was filled with dust and the wind was scorching hot. Corn is ripening rapidly and practically all out of danger from frost. LINWOOD, Neb., Sept. 19.—(Special.)—The continued hot wind for the past ten days has absorbed nearly all the moisture In the ground, leaving it in poor condition for fall plowing.

BEATRICE, Sept. 19.—(Speclal.)—Judge Bush will convene court Monday, and after disposing of a few matters of pressing im- portance will adfourn until November 18, at which time the petit jury has been notified to report for duty. The change is made ostensibly on account of the hot weather, but there is another and more plausible reason, and that is the populist judge is a candi- date for re-election and can use his time between now and election day to better ad- vantage than holding court. The annual meeting of the Beatrice Lit- erary society, the pioneer literary organiza- tion” of the state, will be held tomorrow evefiing for the election of officers. The inquest held over the body of the little DeLude girl, killed by the motor car Tuesday evening, failed to produce any evi- dence derogatory to the motorman and the jury returned a verdict exonerating the company from ali blame.

The Burlington then announcad that it would reduce the rates on lumber from northwestern ponts to the Missourl river to 10 cents, a cut of 5 cents from the former schedule.

A week or more ago thero a feeling In just the opposite direction, but the lines have been convinced since then that there will be no great amount of travel from the west to Atlanta, no matter what rates are put into effec General Passenger Agent Danfels of the New York Central has issued a circular claiming for his road three world's records in raflway travel.
