Exciting Time ut Gmaha-Thc Smelling
Works strike.
OMAHA, May 21st.-This morning party
of 100 colored men from Kansas City,
Leavenworth and st. Joseph arrived at the
Omaha Smelling Works on special train,
and were marched into the works, to be en-
ployed in place of the white strikers who
struck over two weeks ago for an advance of
20 per cent. Twenty-Five or thirty of the
colored party were armed with guns aud re-
volvers. This flank movement on the part of
the managers of the smelling worke was a
complete surprise to the strikers, who at
tempted to stop the negroes from going in !;
but the negroes, with their arms, had the
best of them, and entered without collision,
as the white men were unarmed. Great
excitement followed all the morning. The
strikers at one time determined to seize the
arms in the armories of militia companies @
and II and attack the negroes and drive them
out, but this plan was abandoned and STRAIT
egy was resorted to. A committee from the
strikers conferred with the negroes, and in
formed them of the situation, and offered to
pay their expenses back to their homes if
they would leave A large majority voted
to accept the proposition, and finance COM
mite of twenty was accordingly appointed
to collect funds for this purpose. In the
meantime the Workingmen held meeting
and listened to speeches, and during the af-
ternoon another meeting Of strikers and
Workingmen generally, including representa-
tives from the Union Pacific shops, was held.
All the negroes were present in body, hav
ing withdrawn from the smelling works
They were enthusiastically received, and
speeches were made. The Finance Commit
tee reported a collection of nearly $500 to
hack to their homes to.morrow Militia

New YORK. May 21st.-A Poughkeepsie
special saws: Morris Livingston. well-to-do
Israelite resident of Beaver City, Utah, has
commenced suit against Rachael Rosenbaum,
daughter of wealthy tailor of Poughkeepsie,
for diamond ring, necklace and other val.
liable jewelry, presented to her last fall when
she was his fiancee. Through some channel
Rosenbaum, father of Rachael, discovered
that Livingston had already been married to
a Western lady, and subsequently been di-
vorced Not being anxious to have that kind
of a son-in-law, Rosenbaum wrote to Living
ston and requested that the engagement be
terminated at once. The engagement having
been broken, Livingston claims that it is only
fair that the jewelry should be returned to
him. The case will be tried before the june
term of the Supreme Court in this city.

taken U1 utDbSltlOU III bedF6T O1LY, " Jan.
