} C THE _OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, JUNE b CANNOT RESUME BUSINESS | Insurance Department Denies Potition of Americin Accident Association, ALLOW BILL FOR NIEGINFIND EXECUTION | State Declines to Advance Money to City of Lincoln to Pay for Pav- (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June 4.—(8pecial.)—President Rector of the American Accident asso- clation, formerly the Woodman Accident assoclation, accompanied by Attorney Aleck, was here this morning from Omaha to discuss with Auditor Weston ana Insurance Deputy Plerce the suit now pending against the company In Douglas county. The men wanted to know If they | tould not resume business by a reorganiza- tion of the company by the Infusion of new blood and one thing and another. They were told to get into court and there tell their troubles Mr. Plerce sald the company had been doing business without a license from the | state, and that its organization and its | methods were both wrong. He sald the company was composed of two directors | and a president and one of the directors was the president as he could learn no record or minutes were kept of the meetings of the board of directors, and many other little detafls | had been lost sight of by the company. As to the company’s methods Mr. Plerce sald he had several communications in bis office where parties who carried In- surance alleged they had not been paid according to the contract in the policy. Pay Bi for Execution. The bill for the execution of Gottlieb Nieginfind has finally been allowed by the Board of Public Lands and Bulfldings. The total bill allowed was for $25 Of this George Stryker of Omaha recelved $53.80, of which $10 went for the rope; Douglas county gets 350 for the scaffold, and Si goes “to allowance as per order of the board.” This sum Is supposed to go to Warden Beemer, because he was warden at the time of the execution, and with which to pay the Incidental expenses of the ex- ecution. The bill was given to the board some time ago for $300, but as only the $103 was itemized it was returned to the warden. Reguest is Turned Down, The mayor and the city council of Lin-| coln, ‘armed with much assurance and lots of ‘nerve, called upon the State Board of Public Lands and Bufldings this afternoon with a request and were turned down. The request was that the state advance to the city sufficient money to pay for pav- ing the street Intersections around the capitol. The city, the officlals sald, did not have any avallable cash, but would haye next fall, when it sold its pumpkins and it would then repay the state. Ths legislature appropriated money to pay for | the paving to be done by the state, but the board dld not feel justified in helping out the clty. Duplicate Inspection Reports. State Ol Inspector Church has just mafled to his deputies a report book cov- ering a period of about elghty months. The deputy will fill out two of the reports each month, keep one himself and send one to the main office. In this way Mr. Church expects to simplify the bookkeeping and at the.geme time,the duplicate reports will be & protection to the chief as well as to the deputiés if anything ever comes up that makes it necessary to show records. Adjutant General Culver tonight will go to York, tomorrow to Aurora and Saturday to West Point to inspect the companies of the national guard stationed at those towns. The companies he has inspected he'reports as coming up to his highest ex- pectations and he is gratified at the show- de. mv‘v.m';. Johnson of Pawnee City was today reappointed by Governor Mickey a member of the Prison Examining board. Dr. John- son, with the superintendent of the asylum and the prison physiclan, compose the board. Names Deputy Game Warden. Governor Mickey this afternoon appointed H. 8. McConnell of Alblon, Boone county, assistant deputy game warden. Recently the governor appointed George Carter chief deputy and E. Hunger of Lincoln assistant deputy. Mr. Hunger, over his protest, yes: terday afternoon was nominated by the re- publican convention as a candidate for con- stable. This latter place, however, he will not accept. Chief interest now in the game commission Is whether Commissioner O'Brien will succeed himself. One of the other applicants for the place is Rudolph Seefkin of Omaha. Mr. O'Brien has strong indorsements for the place, but ‘the gov- ernor sald this afternoon that he would not act untll he had visited the hatcheries in person and investigated. Along the same lines it might be interesting to sportsmen to know that they are privileged to shoot at lve targets untll July 9 The anti- pigeon shooting bill which passed the legis- Jature was Introduced with the emergency clause attached, but the latter was stricken off before the bill became a law.

Nitsch. The latter committsd suicide in 1997, and the company retused to pay on the yvcund that there was a by-law of the company to the effoct that suicide, while 2ane or Ineane, v'tiated the He sald that ®0 far | police, When Nitsch jolned in 1592 there | was no such provision ‘n the policy. Sev | eral amendments had been made, but these all provided for a period less than the | time Nitsch had been a member. Finally | the prohibitive one was adopted. It ap- | pearea from the evidence, however, that | no copy of this bylaw had been filed with | the state auditor, and this omission loses the case to the order. nday Ball & Misdemeanor. The playing of base ball on Sunday In | the state of Nebraska is a misdemeanor | punishable by fine and imprisonment. So holds the supreme court in a case brought | before it from Nebraska City, wheve Sun- | day, ball playing became offensive to the law and order league and arrests of play- ers followed. In the case of the State against O'Rourk, | decided twelve years ago, the same hold- |ing was made by the court, but in this case it was hoped to secure a reopening lof and a reversal of this opinion. No- where In the statutes is the playing of [ base ball on Sunday specifically inhibited, |but the court holds that the prohibition of sporting includes base ball. Attorney Manahan for the Fitzgerald estate effects a saving of $33,00 for his client by the court's decision in the suit | ot Mallory sgainst Fitzgerald. This is |a sult wherein 8. H. Mallory, the Iowa | rallroad contractor, sought to recover upon five promissory notes given in 1838 by the late John Fitzgerald in a settiement be- tween him and Mallory as assoclate con- tractors. The notes on thelr face were Aue in five years, but Mallory claimed that they were not to be presented for payment until Fitzgerald realized upon a judgment secured by him against the Missouri Pacific Rallway company for nearly $200,000. The effect of such an agreement would be to defeat the statute of lmitations. The amount due on the notes to date would be about $33,000. The court found in favor of the defendant holding that where a-note is negotiable in form and by its terms payable on demand, evidence of a contemporaneous oral agree- ment destroying its negotiabllity, and making the time of payment contingent on the happening of an uncertain event s in- admissable. Where evidence of such agree- ment 15 recelved over the objection of the party against whom it s offered, the court may disregard it in determining whether a verdict should be directed against the party offering it. Western Unfon Wins. An ordinance enacted by the city council of the town of Wakefleld, whereby it was sought to levy an occupation tax upon the Western Union Telegruph company is knocked galley west by the court. The company resisted payment on the ground that the ordinance was vold because it sought to impose a tax on Interstate com- merce and on & post road of the United States, the company’'s wires being used to transmit government messages from one government station to another. In the lower court the finding was in favor of the town, but the supreme court says that the ordinance to be valld must be restricted so as not to include any interstate busines of the government of the United States transacted by such company. County is Not Responaib) The county of Dodge is relieved from re- sponsibility for the board of smallpox p tients kept under quarantine in their lod ing house. The point is one of considerable interest. Herman Diers was tunning & boarding house whereat lodged & gang of raliroad construction men. Smallpox broke out among them, and the whole lot was quar- antined. They refused to pay board, and as Diers could not fire them out without violating the quarantine law he kept them and sued the county to recover for their keep.

It must be shown that they are paupers or that those primarily lable for their meals are unable to respond. The mere fact that they are quarantined for the mafety of the public does not relleve those who are able to supply themselves with food from the duty of doing so. It was claimed that they were virtually pris- oners and as such were entitled to thelr keep, but the court says this is not pri- marily true. Under the old common law a prisoner, If able to do so, must supply himself, and the duty of doing this is an imposition of the statute only, and this statute is applicable only to the cases that come within its purview, This is not one of them. Strikes Ofl in Well, YORK, Neb, June 4—(Special)—For sométime it has been generally known that coal ofl underlaid York county and yester- day well diggers at a depth of 160 feet on the farm of Mr. Brandhoeffer, near Waco, struck ofl in such quantities that it was impossible to use the water from the well. The well filled up to a depth of forty-five feet and the odor of petroleum Is very strong. Mr. Brandhoeffer fs sinking another well, hoping that he will not strike oll Along the three streams of water travers- ng York county are places where coal ofl cozes out of the banks and covers the surface of the water for a number of yards. Many belleve that coal ofl could | be found In quantities in York county and hope that some expert may come here and investigate. Small Cut Proves Serious. OSCEOLA, Neb., June 4.—(Speelal.)—The Union Pacific conductor, Edward Hamilton, who formerly run on the line from Lincoln to Stromsburg, and who was changed to the Beatrice end of the line, is still con- fined to his room at the Park hotel, Stroms- burg. Mr. Hamilton has been knocked out a number of times since he has been on the road, but never in the way he is now, and | it comes about in this wise. He was wait- ing at Valparaiso and thought he would get brushed up a little and so stepped into the barber shop to get shaved; the barber cut his neck a little and the result was that blood polsoning set in, and he has had an awful bad neck, but is getting bet- ter now although the neck Is greatly swol- len. | | Rains Damaging Crops. YORK, Neb, June 4—(Special)—Owing to excessive rainfall which prevented a few of York county farmers putting in all of thelr corn and places in corn flelds washed out, York county farmers are huy- Ing and ordering new seed corn of the earliest maturing kind. Winter wheat in low places 1s heading out and where water has stood will be damaged while wheat on higher places promises to be good. The vield will depend on sunshine and dry weather. Louls C.

LINCOLY MAN IS DROWNED| Jesse Miller Viotim of Acoident in a Obiongo Park, YOUNG WOMAN PERISHES WITH HIM oned ¢ Fallen Out of Rowboat in Attempting to & Lagoon Craft, Have CHICAGO, June 4—Jesse Miller and a young woman, as yet unidentified, but be- lleved to have been & student at the Uni- versity of Chicago, were drowned lagoon at Jackson park today. In a memorandum book in the clothing of the dead man was the following: “If any- thing happens to me notify Ira Miller or Sophia Casse, 163 M street, Lincoln, Neb.” Later information developed the fact that Miller was a student in the school of med- feine cf the University of Chicago. The drowning Is now supposed to have been the result of an accident. Early In the morning the two secured a row boat and stdrted out on a tour of exploration with the world's fair caravels which are anchored in the lake. Later the bodies were found at the side of Pinta, one of | the three ships, and it Je supposed the row- boat capsized while the young people were attempting to board the larger vessel, Two letters were found in the clothing of the young man, one of which was from Sherman Miller of Lafayette, Ind., and the other was a “home' letter from his brother Ira at Lincoln. The young woman, it was thought at first, was Grace Miller, & sister of the young man, but later It was learned that Grace Miller with a woman of her acquaintance, had left Chicago several days ago for an outing In Michigan. It is now supposed that the young woman was also a student at the university. The initials “F. E. M.” were. found on linen worn by Miller's companton. The young woman who was drowned with Jesse Miller was identified late this after- noon as Miss Frances E. Moore of Daven- port, Ta. Miss Moore was in her first year at the university and was taking the liter- ary course. She was also sald to have been aémember of a dramatic school down town. Her body was identified by Miss Helen Baldwin, her room mate. NAMES OHIO TICKET (Continued from First Page.) in the | gress has honored the state in both houses. enators Joseph B. Foraker and Marcus A, Hanna have splendidly maintained Ohlo's leadership. Favor Re-Election of Hanna. The re-election of Senator Hanna is a distinct national demand upon our state and we hereby cordially promise him the unreserved support of the entire republi- can party of Ghin. Governor George K. Nash, with his able assistants in the state offices, for thelr faithful and successful adminstration deserve the generous commendation and gratitude of the people. In Ohio, as in the nation, republican | progressive, and in furtherance of its great tion, thus securing an_elasticity of eur- rency supply commensurate with with busi- ness demands, and we favor well guarded legislation to this end Equal Rights of AlL Ohlo was the first state with soll forever free from the stain of siavery. It was first to preserve the ‘indestructible union of | states”” and adheres firmly to every amend- ment which that war wrote into our coun- | try's constitution as binding in honor upon every American citizen Therefore, we hold fast to the doctrine of equity everywhere In the exercise of the elective franchise, maintaining that justice requires any state excluding any of its citizens from the ballot to be propor tionately reduced In its representation in | the electoral college and the lower house of_the mational congress. | From its earliest day the republican party | has accomplished great results in the state | and natlon, and without resting upon its laurels has' continually pressed forward to | new dutles. Unremittingly it seeks to es- | tablish whatever is safe and wise and truly | and patriotic purposes, it invifes most cor- dially_the co-operation and support of all who sincersly desire to promote our coun- try’s highest welfare. Herrick's Thanks, ‘The nominating of Myron T.

In thanking the con- vention for the honor, he said: 1 have have earnestly sought for some | form of expression which would adequately convey to you my grateful sppreciation for | this most sign«. nonor—for this distinction | which has dignified me so far beyond my deserts.

Now, as for forty years, since the begin- ning of the republican éra in Ohio, the country has looked to it for guidance and | example. The Ohio fdea has been para- | mount, not only in the councils of the re- publican party, but in the nation itself, While the Tepublican party and its princ ples have become practically the incarna- tion of the country. £, e are | ence they | We favor the extreme In nothin for no fads or isms, no matter w come or by whom they are champione Republican nonsense is as dangerous to the body politic as any other kind.

RESURVEYING THE RESERVES Land Not Timbered Likely to BDe Set Outside the Boundary Line. CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 4.—(Special.)— Hon. W. A. Richards, commissioner of the general land office, left today for his ranch at Red Bank, in the Big Horn country, where he will visit for a few days and then return to the southern part of the state and Colorado, where he will for some time for the benefit of While in the west Commissioner Richards will personally investigate the forest re- achievements compel ular approval. Our ‘state debt 18 Cancelled, the caan aur- plus in our treasury s at record figures, the state institutions were never more efficiently or economically conducted. We favor removing limitations which prevent a more just system of taxation. Ohio ought not to discriminate longer against (s own cotporations, thus cutting possible revenues and other benefits and we, therefore, favor and indorse the amendment to 'remove the president provision In our state conatitution of the ouble liabllity of stockholders. We also faver the amendments to vest the governor with the veto power. Transportation and Labor Question. The question of transportation ls one of the most impertant business problems now before the American people for determina- ton. The full utilization of our inland waterways is demanded by all business in- terests. ‘We therefore favor the continued improvement by the general government of the Ohlo river, that « navigable stage of water may be inaintained the entire iength. As republican legislation has always pro- vided work for those who would work, while democratic free trade has produced the opposite result, so the labor laws, state and national, has been jargely of repub- lican origin. ' We favor their extension In every way avallable to all, particularly those deslgned 1o promote harmonious con- ditions and to secure for labor just recogni- tion in the settlement of Aifferences. Pub- lic weifare demands this quite as much as the interests of employer and employed. Better roads would save Ohlo's citizens millions of dollars yearly and should be systematically ~ established. They cre peclally needed on account of the rural free mafl delivery system, for which the demand {s now well nigh universal.

Education and enlightenment unger broad-minded dministrative olicy are gradually obviating the necessity for con- trol through military power, and we com- mend the rapid and steady progress made in the preparation of the Dropositions for the fullest degree of self-government In this connection we volce the grateful acknowledgement of the nation for the !?lel)dld service in the Philippines of that distinguished son of Ohlo, Governor Gen- eral llllam H. Taft. Under Presidents McKinley and Roose- velt our foreign policy of equity to all has made the United States the peacemaker of the world, guarding weaker nations from aggression and giving the Monroe doctrine a vital force greater than ever before. As America’s part In preserving the peace of the world, wc indorse the republican policy of development of the United States navy to the highest efficiency and we will glve every encouragement possible to our merchant marine in the extension of Amer. ican commerce In American Ships upon every sea. Protect! Tarift Policy. The protective tarift policy of the re- publican party has made the United States the greaiest Industrial nation; astonished the world with the tremendous development of our boundless resources; added vastly to our forelgn commerce: greatly increased the prosperity of tne farmer, and has ad- vanced American labor to the best scale of living ever attained. We oppose all attacks upon this policy, whatever the pretext, as tending to bring, back the disastrous d of democratic tariff revision and free trade. Changing conditions and the possible bene- fits of reciprocity may call for timeiy read- justment of schedules, but protection as & rinciple and as a policy must be adminis- ered by the friends of American prosperity and must not be sacrificed Combinations for the monopoly of trade d kindred unlawful purposes are directly amenable to penalties provided by repub- lican legislation and thelr vigorous enforce- ment in the courts. No worthy interest is imperiled, but whatever will work public harm is restrained, and that without resort to the democratic plaz of destivying all American industries through tariff revision or otherwise. 1% further legislation should be found necesary the republican party can be de- pended upon to enact and enforce it with equity and safety in every legitimate Inter- est The republican party, having restored the natlonal credit after it was nearly d ed by the democratic party and hav- & maintained, defended and advanced it highest in the world, with every dollar of full value. and havicg given to the people the only banking system that operates uniformly everywhers without loas # 2 \nwer cost. show serve question that he will understand the true condition of affairs and be better pre- Young Men’s Suits Ages 16 to 20 Years.

ATTACK WITH FIRE AND SWORD Hack Their Victims Before Puttin, pared to treat the numerous protests that are filed with his office from time to time. Mr. Richards has already taken action look- ing to the revision of the boundary lines of the several forest reserves, where there has been considerable complaint from the stock growers. Special Agent Barrett of the general land office, with a large force of surveyors, is now resurveying the boundaries of the Yel- lowstone forest reserve in this state, the new lines excluding in many places large tracts of nontimbered lands. The blanket character of the reserves seem to be the chiet cause for complaint from the stock Interests, but the new surveys will prob- ably remove these objections. Agent Bar- rett will establish the new boundaries as he goes along, end as soon as he has fin- ished the work with the Yellowstone re- serve, a proclamation will doubtless be issued which will define the :ew lines as permanent boundaries and will also restore to entry and grazing a great deal of land now embraced within the reserves. Agent Barrett, or some other special agent, will probably resurvey the boun: darles of the Big Horn and Medicine Bow reserves during the present year.

As no rebels were left in the village the in- habitants experienced no anxiety until sud- denly, at sunset, the Turks, who had com- pletely surrounded the place, commenced a regular bombardment, whereupon all the villagers assembled in the streets. Though the artillery ceased firing during part of the night, the Turkish Infantry fired all night long. The artillery bombardment was resumed at daypreak, but as it was inef- fective the Turks set fire to the village on all sides and commenced a general massa- cre, slaughtering women, children and the aged. About 300 houses were burned and upward of 200 persons, mostly women and children, were killed. The women and girls were murdered while resisting cutrage. One family of seven were slain and their bodies heaped on the hearth. Not a living soul was left in the village. The survivors, many of them half burned or otherwise injured, fled. Some of the fleeing villagers were captured and had thelr ears and noses cut off before.they were butchered. The report adds that 1500 villagers were in the mountains without clothing or food One band of these, consisting of forty women and children, were caught by sol- diers in a ravine and were killed after hor- rible treatment.
