Jones, of Omaha, in favor of the plaintiff, and he will even tuilly gain possession of Omaha real estate valued at $200,000.

Cut-face was released aud both white men captured. Through the intercession of an Indian who spoke English the sheriffs were released, but told that they would not he allowed to take any Indian for killing a white man. i'nt Warns Sp.iikopiei.d, May 30. The State entomologist, Prof. A.

Forbes, has writ ten to Secretary Mills of the Agricultural ard that he finds cut worms of various species, more numerous this year throughout Cential and Southern Illinois than he has ever known them before. The fact is due doubtless to the dry wi nther of the last three years. The root web worm is also specially abundant and likely to join with the cut worm in doing serious mischief when the corn is planted. Some circumstances which have promoted the development of the cut worm are likewise favorable to the increase of the army worm. A Thing erihe Paai.

The Indians do not want to fight. I do not believe twenty bucks could be found on the Sioux reservation who would take the warpath. They have Sitting Hull as a living example.

He Feels a Deep Interest in the City's Welfare and Talks Freely. A distinguished partr of railroad men were la Atchison for a short time yester day afternoon. At 5 o'clock a sppciul train arrived from the east, consisting of an engine anil three coaches, including the Atulanta, Mr. Jay tiouKl'a new special car, which attracted universal attention, Mr. 8.

II II. Clark's special and a provision car. The party consisted of Mr. Jay Gould and his son, Mr. Edmund Gould; Dr.

Munn of Jfew York, 3Ir. Goulds family physician; Dr. Outen, chief surgeon of the Missouri Pacific railway system; Mr. S. II.

II. Clark, first vice president of the company; Mr. A. L. Hopkins, second vice president; Mr.

W. Newman, third vice president, and Mr. B. P. Waggener of Atchison, general attorney, Mr.

Gould was perfectly familiar with the status of affairs in Atchison, just as he had lived here all his lifetime, and Inquired particularly with reference to the progress of the paving of various streets. He stated that he had cherished wish to remain over night in this city and address the people, but bis health was bad, and his physicians had advised him to move on to some point where there was less where he could en-Joy a night's rest. The special train, then -fore, proceeded on to Hiawatha, whence the distinguished party will proceed to Omaha, then to Denver and make a tour the southern returning in about ten days. Mr. Gould expressed regret that the shops were not here last year, as at first proposed, and also stated that ha regarded it a great pity that the Union depot had not been rebuilt.

Mr. Hopkins stated that the order was issued August 10 to build the shops here, but the order was afterward rescinded be cause or the unreasonable restrictions prescribed by the contract submitted. He is in favor of building the shops here this year, if the city does not upon a contract that is unreasonable. Mr. Hop kins stated further that if the shops had been built last fall they would have exceeded the expectations of all the people, Sir.

B. P. Waggoner states that from the tenor of his oftici-il and private con versations with Mr. Gould and Mr. Hopkins, he is positive that there is now a fair prospect of securing not only the construction of the shops, but the hos pital as well.

The Pacific officials all state that they are ready and willing to co operate with the other railway companies in the re building of tho Atchison I'nion depot, on a much larger scale than the old one, They prefer, however, that it shall be built of Colorado gran ite, instead of brick, and on the plan of the Denver Union depot, which is conceded to be the finest in the West, Tney agree that the old depot was about one half the sie that the new one should be. It is positively known that the ques tion of the extension of tho Central ilranch to Denver is under serious con sideration, and it is believed in high olli cial circles that this will be decided upon nt a very early date.

A At In The National Prohibition Con vention Assembled at Indianapolis- A Day Wasted in Getting Good Ready for Business. John P. St John Chosen as Permanent Chairman of the Convention.

His Remarks, on Assuming the Chair, Exceedingly Brie Bishop Turner's Address Busi ness Transacted, Etc. Indiakaiolis, May SO. As convention hour approached this morning the dele gates to the Prohibition National conven tion began to gather in Tomansor hall, the place of meeting, which had been neatly and tastefully decorated with bunting for the occasion. The only colore used were red, white and blue, and inter spersed among the festoons were many mottoes appropriate to the objects sought to be afaiued by believers in the third party movement. As the representatives of the various States tiled in the forms of distinguished leaders were recognized and greeted with pplause.

1 he arrangements lor the ad mission of de.egates and visitors were such as to prevent confusion, but the delegates were slow in getting into place. 1 he hrst occurrence excite general pplause and cheering was the entrance of the New Jersey Young Men's Prohi bition League, headed by one of their number bearing a wooden crank of huge proportions, cheer followed cheer in quick succession as the audience caught ght of the representatives of the (state from which the probable head of the ticket hails. Each succeeding delegation was warmly greeted, and thus much time was spent alter the hour at which the convention was called to meet had passed. It was 10:25 before Chairman Dickie, of the National Committee, rapped the convention to order and invited the offi cers of the W. C.

T. U. to the platform ith the members ot the National Com mittee. At this moment Miss Willard appeared moving toward the platform and was greeted with enthusiastic applause. Chairman Dickie invited past nominees of the party to the platform, and ss those present came in sight the audience broke into loud applause, which was re doubled and repeated when John P.

St, John came forward. The formal organizing of the conven tion was then proceeded with. Alter the singing ot "America" by the assemblage and prayer by Sum Small, of Georgia, Mr. Dickie then placed before the convention the name ol the liev. 11 C.

Delano, of Connecticut, for temporary Chairman, who was unanimously se lected. Col. Ritter, of Indianapolis, stepped forward at the same moment and made an address of welcome, to which Rev Delano replied on behalf of the conven. tion The remainder of the temporary organ izing, suggested bv the National Committee, was then placed belore the con vention and formally elected, as follows lemporary Secretary J. u.

Cranheld of 1 exas. First Assistant Secretary Mrs. M. Brown, of Cincinnati. Second Assistant Secretary G.

F. Wells, of Minnesota. Delegate llenshaw, of Kansas, then stepped forward and presented Chai'man Delano with a gavel made of the wood of the telegraph pole on which Gov. St. John was hanged in effigy in Topeka in 1JM.

Gov. St. John made a few remarks on how it feels to be hanged in efliiry. The convention was then settled down to business. On motion of Delegate Thomos.of New York, the roll of States and Territories was called for, naming tho members of the Committee on Credentials and Per maoent Organization.

Although the convention adjourned to 3 o'clock it was 3:15 before Temporary Chairman Delano rapped the body together and not even then was busiuess resumed. Considerable time as ccu pied in getting the delegates ii order and the proceedings were opened by song and a prayer by Dr. McLockwood cf Cincinnati. It was then found that th Committee on Credentials was not ready to report so the time was tikenupfor nearly an hour with songs by the Herbert Harmonic and Silver Lake (Juartettes, nterspersed with impromptu addresses by Jno. Sobieski of Missouri and others.

The first motion put before the con vention as a matter of business was one on the part of Delegate Turner of Penn sylvauia that a telegram be sent the Hrewers Association in session at St. Paul biddine them defiance, but the matter was choked oil in. manly. A few moments later a similar motion was brought into prominence by Rev. T.

Mills, who asked permission to read it. that having been asked 01 mm. After a tumultuous debate, in which several delegates were constantly on the floor, the mover of the resolution was given leave to withdraw it. At this moment tne lit.le son of the late John R- Finch was brought upon the platform and, amid loud cheering. Chair-mad Dickie, of the National Committee, presented the little fellow with a gold medal ou behalf of the Prohibition party.

I urther time was taken up with sing ing, and then the cause of a slightly acrimonious discussion appeared in the shape of a inotiou that the ex-soldiers of tho Union and Confederate armies stand up and be counted. lhe motion was finally tabled. A memorial frim the National W. C. T.

U. was read, the convention to place in its platform a plank demanding that the Bible be placed in the public schools: that personalities be avoided in the coming campaign; that sectionalism be completely buried and lastly that the position of the party in 181 on the woman suffrage question be reaffirmed. The memorial was referred to the Com mittee on liesolutions. A resolution was then offered by Judge Gore, of New York, reaffirming the woman suffrage plank of lSOt, with the proviso that the issue be not made a test of party feality. inis aiso was reierreu.

An announcement was receive! from the Committee on Credentials that their report was resdy. The convention immediately settled down and became quieter than at any time since it met, at 10:30 in the morning. The report showed delegates to have been selected by every State except Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina, lhe territories all chose representatives except Wyoming, the last arrival being the delegate from New Mexico, who came in lust before the afternoon adjournment. The com mittee then staled that it had decided to permit delegations present to cast the full vote of their State, also that, the provisional delegates be given full power to vote in the convention. This gives a total vote of 1,030, although the actual number of delegates present will fa.i considerable short of that number.

How much short can not be told, as no report of the actual number present has been compiled. immediately following tne credentials report came that of the Committee on Permanent Organization. Its recommendations were: For permanent chairman, John P. St John, of Kansas; for secretary, Rev. Sam Small, of Georgia; first assistant secretary, J.

13. Cranfell, of Texas; second assistant secretary, Mrs. M. M. Brown, of Cincinnati.

The action of the committee was unanimously concurred in and a committee consisting of Rev. M. Boole of New York, Sir. Dickie of Michigan and Jir. unowt-tonof Connecticut was appointed to escort the permanent chairman to the platform.

Having performed that duty Governor St. John was introduced by Temporary Chairman Delano in few felicitous words. Governor St John responded happily, commenting Mr. Delano upon his work in the temporary organization, and saying that he would rather preside over this convention than lie elected President by the rum power. He spoke encouragingly of the outlook.

The old parties, he said, were giving one leader, fearing the fall of the Republican Babylon, bad concluded not to be crushed in the fall. He concluded with reference to the lack of sectionalism in the prohibt Hon party, and asked that the convention do such work as will cause future fen erations to rise np and call it blessed.

W.

Bain, of Kentucky, and John Brooks, of Kansas City. The feeling seems to be slightly in favor of the former, more particularly because of the section from which he comes. Slemonal services were held this after noon during the recess of the convention and also this evening by the prohibition army ot tne blue and the gray. The exercises were largely attended and con sisted chiefly of music interspersed with snort addresses. At the afternoon session Mrs.

DEMOCRATIC CACCCS. The attendance of the members at the uemocrauc House caucus to-night was even thinner than on Monday night, not more than mnetybeing present half an hour after the caucus had been called to order. Mr. McCreary again presided, but Speaker Carlisle and Mr. Randall were not on hand.

Before the proceedings had run along very far, Mr. Springer woke up the caucus by presenting a resolution bindingall of the Democrats to vote in the House for the bill as it comes from the caucus, nnd only for such amendments as are presented in the House by the Democratic members of the Ways and Means Committee. The internal revenue sections of the bill have been only lightly touched upon and this resolution stirred up the North Carolina members to a little onslaught upon the bill. They declared that their people wanted an unconditional repeal of the tobacco tax instead of the compromise reduction made by the Committee of Ways and Means and also served notice upon the caucus that the California members as well as themselves would have to vote for a proposition to remove the revenue tax on fruit brandy, let it come from the Republican or Democratic side, if the caucus refused to include that provision in the bill. This brought Mr.

Scott to the front in defense of the bill and a lively debate followed. A vote was taken on the Springer resolution, which indicated but a small opposition, but in deference to the wishes of the North Carol in i memtiers the resolution was withdrawn in order to allow them to hear the expression of sentiment by their convention, which met to-day. Mr. Bacon, of New York, offered a resolution, which was adopted, pledging the caucus to proceed with the consider ation of the tariff bill in the House immediately after the disposition of the legislative appropriation bill. Another resolution offered by Mr.

Springer was also adopted, requiring all Democratic members to be present or secure pairs during the five minute debate in the House. Mr. Stone, of Missouri, offered a proposition to restore tie duty on lead to within 5 per cent of the existing he pointed out the importance of this in dustry to his people. The amendment was discussed and referred to the Democratic members of the Ways and Means committee for report. Pari" green has been placed on the free list Two hours' hard work resulted in much progress and the caucus then discussed the pottery clauses which are obnoxious to New Jersey people.

The proposition took the shape of an amendment fixing the duties on pottery about 5 percent, on an average, below the existing rates, which was referred to the Ways and Means committee. In the matter of rice flour and rice meal the classification fixed in the bill was wiped out and the present duty was reduced from 20 to 15 per cent ad valorem. At tbU point Mr. Springer renewed his motion to bind the Democratic members to support in the House only such amend ments at were endorsed by tho Demo cratic members of the Ways and Means committee who a-e placed in charge of the bill or the caucus. The bill was adopted without division.

Adjourned without date. A Chat with Korriaoa. St. Locis, May 80. Ex-Congressman W.

B. Morrison, of Illinois, arrived in the city last night, and in a little chat with a reporter said: I don't see why the Democratic national convention should be engaged longer than two days. There is nobody talked of for Presidential candidate but Mr. Cleveland. The delegates will all come here to vote for him and their first expression of opiuion will be unanimous.

He is stronger to-day with his party and with the people than he was four years ago and we were very well pleased with him then. Of the doubtful States I have no special information except from Indiana which I believe the Democrats will certainly carry. Speaking of the candidate for Vice-Pres ident, Mr. Morrison said that he had never considered himself in the race and said he supposed that the custom that had been observed in several conventions passed would be followed and that the party would go to Indiana for the second place on the ticket He had never met George Gray but regarded him with considerable favor. As to Senator Thurman, Mr.

Morrison thought that if be could be upon to accept the nomination he could probably have it Am Isullaa Scare. Ratid Citt, Dak, May 30. An Indian scare has broken out In cew place. Along Spring creek, in this county, the settlers Me badly scared. About thirty or forty settlers came into Rapid City yesterday seeking safety.

As many more are said to have gone to Hermose. This scare is caused by the experience of a man named Mike Qmnn, who went on the reservation after some cattle. A party of Sioux from Pine Ridge agency stopped him and would not allow him to remote his cattle. He waa told to return about the middle of Jane and the Indians would help drive the cattle off the reservation. He spread the news along Spring creek and frightened the people badly.

Byrne, S. C. Yarrows, Gen. Sheridan was reported much bet ter this morning, and his military aides express themselves as feeling encouraged to be'ieve that he has a fair chance or recovery.) There was an air of cheer fulness about the members of the house hold this morning that iudica'ed better than words that there had been a decided change for the better in the sick soldier's condition. The first intelligence ol his condition came trom Col.

Blunt, who re mained at the house during the night. He left it about o'clock to go home for breakfast, and as he passed the newspaper men in waiting, said that the General had a very comfortable night and that one of tne physicians told him, a few minutes before, tlu.t the General was -doing splendidly." Everything seems to be favorable now," said Colonel lilount and Mrs. bherulan, "and all of us feel much encouraged. But then, you know, the disease is still there, and no can tell hat mar happen. Cel.

Kellogg relieved Col. Blount, and after spending some little time in tne house with the physiciaus and members of the family, appeared on the front porcn about 8 o'clock and conversed freely about the case. "The General slept well during the night," said he. "and now appears to be much refreshed His tleep was natural and restful and not caused by narcotics ot any kind. Hi respiration also was easier ana more natural and there was no occasion to re sort to oxvgen." Dr.

Yarrow passed out of the door while Col. Kellogg was talking, and con firmed his statement that no artificial measure was used during the night to duce slumber or to assist breathing. There were the usual number of callers during the morning, and the attendants at the door seemed to take sjieeial pleas ure in dilating on the General improve ment. One of the prettiest sights ot the morning was when the General's three girls stopped in the midst of their play on lhe beautiful lawn s.irrouiulin the house anil gathered some flowers to send to their aliiicted father. The physicians met.

in consultation about eight o'clock and prepared the bul letin announcing the continued improve ment of the patient since the favorable turn indicated in the bulletin issued last evening. At 11 a. it was reported from the sick chamber that tae favorable condition indicated in the morning bulletin had been fully maintained. Indeed not, any unfavorable symp'oin. or condition has appeared since tiie change for the better noted in the 8:40 bulletin of last night.

The General sleeps at intervals without artificial aid. Not a trace of the re currence of the odema has so far made i' appearancis and all tilings considered the. General is confidently believed bv hii attending physicians to be really better. The following bulletin was Issued at p. Siuce this morning's bulletin whatever change has taken place in Gen, Sheridan condition is-for the'better.

(Signed,) R. M. Reii.i.v, HifNiiY C. Yarrow. At 4 o'clock Col.

Blunt said all the fa vorable conditions indicated in the one o'clock bulletin have been maintained The General is sleeping quietly. The diet of the General has been changed somewhat from the scanty vari ety of nourishment heretofore allowed. He was given some reel luice obtained by pressing stak. lie laut hed when it was given him nnd said, "irt a pity to teak this way. 1'J ta'her pet the mice between my teeth.

lo this the doctor replied: "Well, you shall, General, before the week ends if vou climb up like this." An intimate friend of Gepcml Sheridan said to night tlist the General's mother a numlier of years ngu had an very similar in cearacter. The progress of the disease was much the same a) in the General's case. She recovered and is now alive and in her umetieth year. 3 o'clock a. m.

Mrs. Sheridan and oth er members of the faniiiy are asleep, as are a'so all the physicians except Dr. Matthews, who will remain on duty until relieved. Col. Kellogj came to the door and in response to an Associated Press reporters question said: "luolxeneral is doing splendidly, and continues- to im prove.

He sleeps a great deal and it is perfectly natural slumber. No narcotics have been given him for two days. The use of digitalis has been sus pended and oxygen is no longer admin Ltered, There has been no recurrence of the heart failure for three days and the heart is again beating well. An electrical storm passed over the city about 11 clock and it was feared it might have bad effect on the General but he slept along quietly through it until awakened by the loud rumbling of a passingwagon At 1 o'clock another bulletin was issued. It reads: "General Sheridan is sleepm quietly, no change to chronicle.

R. M. Chari.es B. Byrne, Washington Matthews, Washtnc.tok, D. May 30.

The fol lowing bulletin was issued at 0:30 this morning: Nine a. General Sheridan passed a comfortable night, sleeping well and for longer periods than on the pro-cedicg night. All improvement reported in last evenings bu.U-tin is maintained. R. T.

Keim-v, Matthews, B. Brvue, S. 0. Yaukow. The next bulletin will be issued at o'clock.

Everything was quiet at the Sheridan mansion this morning, and all the reports from the sick room were ot cheerful character. At 12:30 o'clock ie General was reported to be r. sting comfortably and to 08 improving an lue lime. To-day being the anniversary of the capture of Booneville, by General Sheridan, then a colonel in cornmind of his first expedition, the district coiiiman dery of the Loyal Legion, through the recorder, General gave him a basket of choice and rare roses, with a note conveying their affection and best wishes and the hope that as he was vic torious twenty-six years ago he would be in his present struggle. At 6:30 the condition of General Sheridan was reported to be as favorable as at any time since the change early last Monday morning.

The following bulletin was not givea out until 10 clock: 8:45 p. m. Gen. Sheridan's condition is not so favorable as it was at the time of the last bulletin, owing to the fact that a harrassing cough has appeared, making him restless and preventing sle-p. Signed Matthews, Byknb, Yarrow.

Col. Kellogg said the cough did not give them any apprehension, as the other favorable symptoms continued. The damp weather, he thonght, might have caused the cough and as the General had so much sleep recently he would natural ly be a little sleeriess. No more bulletins will be issued until 8 o'clock to-morrow morning, as it is not thought that any more will be required to-night, in view of the General's im proved health. One of the physicians says that the cough heretofore mentioned is caused by irritation of the lungs and is of a harking nature.

The only bad effect which it has had as yet is it awakes the General when he is only half asleep and therefore interferes with his rest. It may be due to congestion or to suffusion which produce the oedema, or a gam it may be of a nervous nature. There nas been no reenrrence whatever of the heart trouble. 12:45 a. m.

Mrs. Jen nie Truesdale, wife of an ex-engineer of the 'Frisco railroad, living in the North End, committed suicide last night by drowning herself in the city reservoir. Several theories are afloat in regard to the cause, but the one generally accepted as the most probable lias to do somew hat with one Dr. Christian scientist," wh located here some months ago, and since has been propagating ins tneory ndustriousiv. It appears that some time since the unfortunate woman's husband, who is quite ill with consumption, was prevailed upon to consult Dr.

Reed. lhe experiment proved unatisiac-orv, and becoming convinced that no permanent good would be derived from that source, he abandoned it. His wife, however, still hoping that the disease misrht be overcome through her intervention, if not his own, still con tinued to consult Dr. Reed, and under his tutorase to study his healing science. At the coroner inquest this evening several witnesses testified to having noticed a change in the lady's manner recently in that "she would seem abstracted and weighed down with melancholy, and the tragedy of last night is believed to be the result of her mental trouble culminating in a fit ot temporary insanity.

ith this theory the verdict of the Coroner's jury substantially in accord, although the verdict does not go back of this to sug gest the reason for the recent mortal depression which is a matter of general opinion. The lady left home on some pretext last niirht about 10 clock, i ail ing to return, her husband who was un able to search for her, gave the alarm and search was made by the Marshal and others but she was not to be found till this morning. Dr. Reed was seen by a reporter to day and disclaimed being in any way responsible. He said her insanity was due to tne action oi her husband and others who prevailed her to discontinue her studies under him, That when she quit him she wss perfect ly sane and rapidly subordinating her moral nature to the spirit ot Christian science.

Vt hen it was suggested to the doctor that public sentiment was against him and the occurrence would probably get him into trouble, he treated the sub ject very calmly he was in no way to blame uu would remain here and continue his work. Mrs. Truesdale is well spoken of among her acquaintances. She was about 33 years of age and leaves only a husband. There is considerable feeling against Dr.

Keed, many holding him more or less responsible. BRTJTAI.I.Y MURDERED. PiTTSHcna, May 20. Mrs. Dennis Mul lins, living on Webster avenue, was brutally murdered this morninsr, in the presence of her little child, by a next door neighbor, a German named bcholer.

Ac companying the specimens was the fol lowing note: "Specimens of the moth that lays the eggs that hatch the worms that eat the leaves of the maple trees, to the groat disgust of the people of Atchi-on. 'An ounce of prevention is better thnn a pound of and in the case of these moths the destruction of one means very great many less worms.

Examine a ulo and estimate the number of eggs, each one of which is likely to prove fertile. They can be killed now very easily; they are found near by or under the trees ravaged last year, at tached to the grass or weeds growing by the covered sidewalks, under which they harbored during the winter. In a few days more all ill have gained sutlicient strength to take wing, nnd then they are much more dillicult to kill, ns they fly mostly at night and are quite lively. An article on the subject, advising people what these innocent looking butterflies are, and urging their destruction, will be found benelicial."
