The Garnishee Law.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 2O.-lSpecal Tele-
gram to THE BEE. IA case, that might be
called interstate garnishment, was COM
menced in the county court, this afternoon,
and is decidedly new phase Of treating a
much abused law. The case is that of Fred
Walter VS. Patrick w. O'Connor to recover
money obtained from him by the Rarnishee
process in Iowa. Walter sets up that he was
a resident of Cass county, and employed by
the Burlington railroad company. He had
his wages garnisheed by one ID. M. West, be
fore justice of the peace, in Council Bluffs,
for $3.50 on an account alleged to have been
assigned to him by one p. w. O'Connor, also
a resident of Nebraska. "That by the laws
Of Iowa, a resident Of Nebraska is
not entitled to the exemption from
attachments and garnishment granted to
heads of families, by the laws of Nebraska,
and that in spite OF the fact that the railroad
company made showing before the court
that Walters was the head of a family, his
wages were garnished and the company paid
it,. Walters now brings suit TO recover from
O'Connor the amount of the claim and costs,
amounting 10 $3.50. This Iowa garnishment

On n Charge Of Murder.

GRESHAM, Neb., June 50.-[Special Tele-
gram to THE BEE. Tho phase of the ques-
tion which was generally given credence
yesterday that the arrest of John LeavitJ
and his wife was merely to remove them to a
place of safety from violence that was feared
might be done, is to-day changed, and the
real meaning OF their arrest begins to be
realized The deputy sheriff this morning
issued a summons for the appearance at
Seward of number of persons to be used as
witnesses. On what ths sory or circumstances
the arrest is based doeslnot appear, perhaps,
to none but the officers who are adopts at
keeping their own council. If they have any
grounds for their belief, the examination will
reveal it. Several newspaper representa-
tives visited the scene of the great double
tragedy this afternoon. There have been
comparatively few visitors to the place to-
day and it begins TO take on Its usual every
day appearance. Two of the old peoples
sons and three of their married daughters
are the occupants of the house. One of the
men constantly patrols his bea around the
house and warns those who come to get a
glimpse of the place not To tie their horses to
the trees, which have been already ruined
by teams. The grass all about the premises
is trampled almost into the earth and the row
of cottonwood trees which lined one side of
the farm is robbed of its bark for nearly half
mile

Mr.. Nc Mullin Speaks Ia Piece.

CHICAGO, June 3d. Special Telegr am to
The BEE. -Vice-President McMullin, of the
Alton, declares the figures relative to Kan
sas City shipments of live stock, sent out
last night by Chairman Walker, of the In
ter-state Commerce Railway association, to
be misleading. "There is no use trying to
obscure the main question:" said he, to-day :;
''the controversy was on cattle and live stock
- of all kl nds. Here are the correct figures
and they show our reason for withdrawing
from the association. For the week previous
to the decision Of the executive board order
ing the ST. Paul to take no more than two
train loads of cattle week from Kansas
City, that road hauled sixty eight cars. For
the week following the decision, and when
it was supposed to be in full force and effect,
the st. Panl hauled 1913 cars Now that the
st. Paul is making great display
of the fact that it is carrying no cattle, cuts
no possible figure. Just bear in mind that
the st. Paul only refused cattle shipments
after the Alton was out of the association.
We have no thanks to offer any one for the
business we are now doing. Our own agents
get it for us in the open market. We have
no hard feelings at all against the associa
ton. We are out and intend to stay out, but
hope the association will have long and
prosperous existence"

STRIKE AT JOHNsToWN.
Many Men Quit Work and a Riot is
Feared.

JoHNsTowN, Pa, June 20.-The strike
among the laboring men here is fairly on,
and this morning there are not thousand
men all told at work. Those employed by
Mcknight, the Pittsburg contractor, are
idle and dissatisfied, and the discord is
spreading to the other workmen. Overbear-
ing bosses and short rations, for which the
men are made to pay literally, are the griev-
ances. The military are on active duty this
morning, and the local company of the Fifth
regiment has been ordered out. While
everything appears quiet on the surface,
there is fear that the undercurrent of dis
cord will break out at any time, and that a
riot will follow.
The committee appointed at meeting of
the striking laborers this morning reported to
a meeting held an hour later that all foreign
workmen had quit work, but at the request
of the strikers the local men continued work.
Another meeting will be held to-day.
Five bodies were recovered this morning,
among them being mother and two chill
dren. The children were locked in the
mothers arms.
Sixteen bodies were found to-day and
many of them were Immediately buried after
being completely covered with oil. The
stencil is becoming daily more sickening and
unbearable. The Women's Christian Tenn

CHICAGO, June 20.-ISpecial Telegram to
THE BEE. THE break in the northwestern
rates is docketed for consideration by the
Western Freight association for tomorrow
mornang. Chairman Faithorn announces
that a resolution will be proposed that
through rates ON northwestern business be
advanced to the local basis. If adopted, this
will make the through rate to St Paul the
sum of the local to Chicago and from Chi
cago to St. Paul. Many of the roads favor
this plan, as IL will punish the trunk line
roads, which control central traffic roads,
for pro-rating with the lake lines. 1t is
limited that the question may be postponed
until week from to-day If it is, the North,
members, will have large-sized suits on their
hands, brought by the Chicago Freight bu-
reau, charging discrimination against the

to The BEE. DIR r. A. H. Duncan, of the

placed in quarantine. He is very sick with
yellow fever. The nature of his disease
was not known until last night and the
health officers have little fear of the disease
spreading owing to the precautions taken,
although Duncan rode to the house from the
boat while sick in horse car. The physi-
clan who attended him also cared for other
patients. The physician has been arrested
for failing to comply with the quarantine
laws The Brooklyn board of health and

edge of another yellow Iever case on the

and speedy burial at sea on the Colon. The

there was young lady on board sick, but

not contagious. The man WIND died on board

Tie RccaIcitrant Redskin.

PINE RIDGE. (va Rushville) June co.
Especial Telegram to The BEE. This morn
ing an opportunity was given those who so
desired, to sign the rolls and few availed
themselves of the opportunity thus offered
them, but noIhing compared to the rush at
Rosebud on the second day of signing. The
time is not yet quite up, and further explanas
tions are necessary.
1t will be remembered that at Rosebud
number of half-breeds were employed og
complete explanations and analysis of the
bill at private councils Of the In
dians. Here this has been largely
lacking. With view to this
General Crook held council with the white
men and half-breeds, at which means and
measures were discussed and plans laid for
efficient work among the Indians who are
now in doubt.
Red Cloud asked for council with Gen
eral Crook, from which he desired even the
official stenographer should be excluded.
This left the correspondents on the fence to
look with longing eyes across the green,
where an immense concourse was in council
with the general. AT this council Red Cloud
Yves the principal speaker. He persisted in
In misinterpretng the treaty Of 1865, and
said the government had refused to do as it
had agreed. He did not want anything to
do with the commission. Continuing, he
grew very angry aud impertinent ordering
all those who came with this commission to
leave the reservation, and at once, too.
General Crook called halt at this juncture
and told Red Cloud some Of the past parts Of
his history with which he was familiar He
also mentioned why he issued the order to
seize all of the Indian ponies and leave them
afoot because Red Cloud would not listen to
reason, but declared his intention Of going
on the war path. The general also gave
other instances of the duplicity of Red
Cloud in tho past transactions he had with
him, ana expressed his obvious desire in this
case TO obtain all the rewards.
The council broke up by o suggestion OF
General Crook that those who desired should
go TO the agents ollice and sign. aud others
who were opposed should SO state. This led
20 regular stampede of Red Clouds, Big
Roads and Little Wounds bands passing
through the agents office in single file TO the
number OF nearly four hundred each one de-
clarng himself opposed TO signing.
a notable exception 10 the action of these
Sioux is that of the Cheyennes, who held n
council in the afternoon aud decided TO sign
in body. These Indians are q much
Drawer and more industrious class than the
Sioux, General Crook gives them high
praise as soldiers and lighters and promises
TO give them all the assistance in his power
20 accomplish the desire of their hearts 10
be united on one reservation with their
people, VINO are now, most OF them, on the
Tongue River reservation in Montana.
AT this time there arc about three hun
dred names signed TO the rolls, and II Is
hoped reaction will soon take place and
the work be done rapidly frcm this day on.
