GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept g. Special to
THE Bee, The Lutheran Synod settled
down TO work yesterday morning. Presi-
dent Schurr read his report covering the OPP
erations Of the past year. After hearing
the report of the retiring president
the synod entered upon the selection of OH
GERS. Much excitement existed On the
second ballot MIR. J. f. Wilheling, of Omaha,
was reelected treasurer On the third ballot
Rev. Jacoby, of Nebraska City, was chosen
secretary. On the fifth ballot Rev. Kreuger
was chosen German secretary. But no pres

enth ballot.
Rev. s. b. Bornitz, of Des Mones, Ia,
Rev. M f. Troxell, of st. LOUIS, and Rev.
l.. Lipe of West Point, spoke on the subject
of home missions.
In the midst of excitement an adjournment
was secured. On reassembling another bal
lot was had, resulting in the choice of Rev.
Stump, of North Platte, as president. The
synod thus became organized and has entered
on its work after over u Gay and n nights
struggle.
This morning Rev. ]. S. Detweiler, of
Omaha, presented the report of the state
travelling secretary. Notwithstanding that
it was an excellentrepOrt the recommended

PURvIs, Miss, Sept. 6.-[ Especial Telegram
to The BEE. The statement in dispatch
from New York alleging that G. w. Rich, of
Richourg had leased the county prisoners of
Marion county, and would have charge of
Sullivan and kilrain, is a mistake. The
county clerk says that no such contract ex-
lists between the county and Rich, and
before the board of supervisors can
lease the prisoners to any one
bids will have TO be advertised for
in this county as prescribed by law.
There are other citizens, among them mill
owners, charcoal contractors, and farmers,
who would like to lease county prisoners,
and, if bids are advertised for, Rich will not
have it all his own way. The efforts of
Sullivan and his friends to have miscar-
rage of the sentence have had the effect of
turning citizens against him who were at
first only in favor of Il fine. They are now
determined that the fine shall be carried out,
and in the event of the slugger being
leased out the farmers will do some bidding.
One of them said to-day that he could afford
TO pay Us much for a lease as anyone, and if
he secured the contract the 'Beanville slug
ger and the heavy hitter from Baltimore
would have to drive mule and stand their
hand at powing. The charcoal contractors
are also tickled at the chance of hiring the
champion to propel a wheeibarrow, and the
lumbermen are anxious to try the big fel-
lows skill at loading cars. There will be
lively music when Rich makes an attempt to
secure lease.

DENY DELANo's CHARGE.
Manufacturers will Not Ask For the
Reduction of Wool Duties.

BosToN, Mass, Sept 6.-ISpecial Tele.
gram to The BEE. The charge
of President Delano of the Ma
tional Wool Growers association, at Colum-
bus, O., Wednesday, to the effect that
the National Association of Wool Manutac-
turers, especially those in New England, con-
templated during their called meeting in
Boston this month agitating reduction of
the tariff on wool, has called out Il heated
protest from the accused parties.
There is much feeling among the members
of the Manufacturers ASSOCIATION, and they
have referred 10 Mr.. Delano in terms which
throw suspicion upon his veracity.
Your correspondent, to get at the truth re-
garding the intentions of the manufacturers
at their approaching meeting, secured an Iu-
terview with President William Whiteman
of the Platter association. He said it would
not be proper for him to enter into the
details of meeting intended to be
secret, and at which he had
presided even if he felt sure of the results
but he would say this, that President Delano
knew that he was not mentioning facts when
he made this statement. The wool manu-
facturers had no intention of interfering with
q tariff which had brought the wool industry
to iJs present great height ana value and in
which such vast capital was invested.
All they wanted was protection for
the manufacturers, not destruction to
the grower. The tariff on wool protected the

ana goods did not protect them. They SIM
ply proposed to solicit of congress legislation
which would do the latter The responsi-
bility would be with congress and they would
be best pleased with an increased tariff on
the manufactured material, for which
the tariff had gotten better prices
for the grower. The manufacturers

gram to The BEE. The Daily Neoraskan.
an evening newspaper published at Hastings,
threw bombshell IN the congressional cam
this evening by announcing the name of Fl.
Bostwick, of this city, as a candidate for

be a candidate. He has been chairman of
the congressional central committee for sew
eral years. The announcement of his can
dicacy, although ostenslbly made without
his knowledge or consent by a newspaper
that stands so closely to him and his
friends, will have q tendency to complicate
matters considerably in this county. In
urging his nomination the Daily Nebraskan
says: ".Jim Laird's unfinished work in con-
gress makes the selection of his successor

DEs MoINEs Ia, Sept 6.-I Especial Tel
egram to THE BEE. The Chicago, Milwau-
kee & ST. Paul railway company to-day filed
with the railroad commissioners their answer
TO complaints against taking up the track of
their branch road from Emmettsburg to
Baskerville. This line is twenty-five miles
long and was constructed in 1881 and was
operated until March 6, 1889. 1t made ex-
penses and few hundred dollars profit dur
ing the first six months, but ever since it
has been run at a loss. The net losses have
run from $1,000 to SIS, 900 a year. or total
of $4,000 during the seven years
that it has been operated. Inasmuch as the
road is paralleled by the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids a. Northern, every station on the
one being also on the other, the Milwaukee
company thinks that no public injury will
follow the taking up of the road. They say
they are going to do it, as they are tired of
operating the branch at a steady loss.
