DEAD ON THE rRAIRIE.
Sequel to the Mysterious Disappear
ance of Freuchman.

RED CLoUD, Neb., March 2l.-fSpecial
Telegram to The BEE. Alfred Brussord, a
Frenchman living near Campbell, north Of
this city, mysteriously disappeared from
home January 10 and all efforts 20 find him
resulted in failure until yesterday. Tuesday
evening John Hansen, living ten miles north
west of this city, discovered by accident,
lying on the open prairie about one hundred
yards from the road, the body of dead man.
Coroner Schenck was yesterday notified, and
at the same time q courier was dispatched
to Campbell to notify the brother
of the missing Brussord. Accordingly
yesterday the coroner's jury and witnesses
went TO the place and were met by the miss
ing mans brother, who Immediately identi-
fled the remains. The jury returned ver-
dict of death from fatigue ann exposure, and
the remains were taken irl charge by the
relatives. The only clue evey obtained in the
many searches made for the man was the
finding of his boots, a lantern which he car
ried and q coat he had worn IN various places
on the open prairie. From his home to where
he was found tho distance is niue miles. He
had been observed to act strangely few
days previous to his disappearance, but no
watch was put over him He was twenty
eight years old, well-to-do and married.

AFTER THE COPPER TRUST.
NJ. Laure Demands That It BE Prose
cuted Under the Penal Code.

cuted Under the Penal Code.
lCopyriOht 1859 bD James Gordon Bennsu.l
PARIS, March 2l.-[New York Herald
Cable-Special to THE BEE. Although yes
torday's sitting in the chamber terminated
by vote expressing confidence in the cab-
net, the debate was nevertheless calculated
to cause the government some trouble. The,
question at issue was not, in truth, one of
politics, and the fate of the cabinet was not
at stake. M Laure demanded that the po-
lice prosecutions under article 4l0 of the
penal code should be commenced against the
financiers who directed the copper ring.
The minister Of justice, without absolutely
refusing to take the question into considera-
tion, reserved to himself the right to study
the facts OF the case more fully,
and 1t was easy To see he was but
little disposed to ordec the prosecution. The
majority OF the chamber appeared, on the
contrary, to incline in favor Of M. Laure's
motion, and for the moment It seemed almost
probable that M. Millerand's order of the
day inviting the government to institute a
judicial investigation would be adopted nev-
erthelcss.
The majority evidently were desirous not
to create any embarrassment for the govern
ment, and passed the vote Of confidence from
u pOluG Ol NlcW. lHc opinion
supported by M. Laure is iustifiable. Arti-
Gle AIS of the penal code Furnishes with fine
and Imprisonment those persons who by
combination or coalition amongst the princi-
pal holders of any single merchandise or
commodity, intending TO hold il, or only 10
sell it at certain price, or who by any
fraudulent means have caused an increase or
decrease in the price of such merchandise or
commodity, or commercial or public paper or
bulls, above or below the price which
would have been the result of free
and natural commercial competition. 1t is
possible to recognize the character Of tho
offense in the action by means of which the
copper speculation was attempted. 1t must,
however, be remarked that this article OF
ponal code, which responds 10 an economical
conception that may he contested, is rarely
Put in force. On the other hand, it may be
sad that the question of knowing whether
the prosecution will be instituted against
certain perse ms engaged in speculations is q
question Offering but secondary interest.
The government regarded the matter from a
broader and more general point of view.
Its chief pre-occupation was the extremely
grave consequences which might have re-
suited IN the panic caused by the Compton
d'Escompte disaster had It not been stopped.

THE BEHRING SEA FISHERIES.
A Proclamation About to Be Is sued
Nv the President


BY the President.
New York, March 21.-A Washington
special to the Post says that President Har-
rison will issue proclamation in relation to
Behring sea which cannot fail to attract ln-
ternational attention. In the closing hours
of the last congress an amendment was in
corporated in the inter territorial salmon
fishing act which, in effect, declares that
Behring sea is a closed sea. The act forbids
the taking of seal by any one not authorized
by the act, within the waters of Behring sea,
and does not exclude them merely from fish
ing on certain islands. The amendment is Of
great importance to American and Canadian
fishermen who may have been planning to
engage in seal fishing In the open waters of
Behring sea this season, as so many Of the
Can adian vessels did last season. The act
aut horized the seizure of such vessels by the
United States revenue cutters. The procla-
nation of the president will call attention to
this fact The act may give rise to import
ant international complications.

How Red Tape Interferes With the
Dispatch OF Public Business.
WASHINGTON, March 21.-The special COM
mittee appointed in the last congress to in
vestigate the methods Of doing business in
the executive departments, of which Senator
Cockpell is chairman, has completed its work
and report prepared by Cockrell, which
will be made TO the senate in few days.
The document is an exhaustive and interest
ing one, containing numerous illustrations of
how red tape and senSeleSS adherence TO
forms and precedents interrupts and retards
the dispatch of public business. The re-
port will show that some departments, the
pension and land bureaus for instance, re-
quire as long time as four or five years to
settle claim or get information
far back as 1884 in these
bureaus are still uudisposed Of In some Of
fees rules are making TO get out of old rules
and adopt new and better methods with the
result that business is dispatched with accu-
racy, more speedily aud with more benefit to
those interested.
The paymaster generals office is up with
current business, and requests for informa-
tiOn are answered within twenty-f0ur hours.
In the surgeon generals Office DR.. Aims
worth has introduced card index, by the
use of which he has caught up with business
over year behind at the time he took hold,
and has been able TO furnish information in
~ per cent of cases, against SO per cent
under the old style.
Mr.. Cockrell says there Is, however, In
many. il not all cases, disposition to ignore
improved ways of doing business, and the
report will recommend, among other things,
that commission be appointed with au-
thority and direction to institute the reforms
suggested.

Dwight's Problem.

cDwIGHT, Neb., March 21,-[Special to THE
BEE. The village of Brainard is agtated
about the coming spring election, the ques-
tion being license or no license, and the out
look is that it will go against license. Unless
license is granted the town will be without
school facilities. On account of the small
ness of the district, not enough money can
be raised from taxation to keep the schools
running In the past three years the two sa-
looms there have contributed $1,000 year
toward the school fund, and, as result of n
cense, Brainard has a new school building Of
which any town might be proud.

PLArTsMourH, Neb., March 2l.-lSpecal
Telegram to The BEE. IA large number Of
citizens who combine the lucrative pursuit Of
raising chickens with their other multifa-
rious duties have been greatly exercised
over the disappearance of number of their
feathered stock, which continued with start
ling rapidity. The growing suspicion that
the chickens were being stolen eliminated
in an appeal to the police. These alert Off
GERS Immediately commenced an investiga-
tion, which developed the fact that three
promising youths named Tommy Hart, Billy
Phillips and Dick Brown, whose ages range
between sixteen and twenty, were the dep
redators
Tommy Hart has been arrested but his
two enterprising companions have managed
to elude the vigilance Of the officers and are
still at large Over 300 chickens have been
stolen and sold to local merchants, and had
not the pilfering been npped IN the bud it is
likely that every chicken coop in the COM
munity would have been spiliaged and there
would have been a dearth of eggs for Easter.
Hart claims that he only did the selling. the
other two doing the stealing.

The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1889-11-30

was made second vice president OF the coni-
pany in 1852.
His election as president of the company
came in 1885. A man of Mr.. Depew's broad
attachments, wide reading and extensive ac-
uuaintance could not fail TO be thoroughly
conversant with the development of his Tor
mer profession, and his address at the last
commencement Of the Yale Law school
proved his intimate acquaintance with the
subject and was masterpiece of its kind.
Mr.. Depew's views: There is no doubt
but what the profession OF law Is over
crowded, but it is proper to say that three
fifths of the men who enter the profession
are untitled to succeed. Many have imper-
feet education and many haven't the ability
to compete with trained and talented rivals.
Every city and village in the older states
has at least five times as many lawyers as
could earn living if the income OF all OF
them, good and bad, was equally divided
But the young men who have special aptitude
Tor the law, and with it indomitable industry
and the ability to cheerfully and hopefully
live poor while they work hard, invariably
succeed Not one in ten OF the young men
who go into the great offices Of New York
can be relied upon to be on hand early and
late and to sacrifice every personal pleasure
and temptation to the business OF the Office.
The overcrowding is most felt among the
men OF moderate abilities who are competing
for the more humble rewards Of the profess
sion. With them the conditions are con
stantly growing harder on account OF the
crowds who are bidding for the business.
The remedy is radical one, but is slowly
working cure. 1t is that university sdu'
cation fits a man rs well for other vacations
as for profession. The old idea which has
crowded the professions was that college
graduate must necessarily be lawyer,
doctor or minister, and when he could not
get anything else he might become an editor.
Finally. the crowds turned out from high
schools and academies also entered the pro
LESSONS as being more respectable and prom
ising better social position than other pu"'
suits.
Fortunately these false notions are giving
Mace 10 the wiser oItniOn that an education
helps a man in any vocation, and that sue
cessful business man is better of and more
highly thought of than a poor lawyer or doc
tor. College graduates can now be found IN
manufactures, railroad offices, behind the
counters, and in their shirt sleeves in the
wards and among the trains learning the
business of rairoading from tie bottom.
Unless young man, upon graduation, Is
satisfied that he has a special talent and
adaptation for the law, he ought not to think
of entering upon its study. He should carry
his culture and training into business ca
reer.
