The people about Traders Point and
Cumberland, o., are very much excited
over the desecration of graves In the local
cemeteries, and II is believed that bodies
have been regularly stolen from these
places for some time. The discovery was
made that the grave Of prominent farmer
had bean robbed. and II is believed that the
body has found It's way into one OF the
medioai colleges. A few OF the near rela-
tives we're apprised of the fact and
employed two detectives 20 work up the
case, but the name Of the farmer is
withheld, as the relatives say that his
widow does not know that the body is gone
and they woald keep the facts from her, If
possible, for the present. The relatives
are wealthy and lave offered the detectives
large sum Of money for the recovery, OF
the body. A week ago boz was received
at freight depot from Cumberland and
was taken 10 medical college by dray-
man. A grave had evidently been robbed
at that point, and the officers are following
clues which may result In arrests.

Various and conflicting rumoss are
In circulation about the special ses-
sion matter. Petitions from about 1850
or 1000 citizens Of Lincoln were presented
10 the governor asking for revocation Of
the call. A half dozen men around the
Capitol hotel boldly expressed the bsisef
that u would be revoked. Some legal
gentlemen doubt tbs governors power to
revoke an ordsT Of this kind. One gentle
man assured the crowd that the governor
was in consultation with the members of
the supreme court on tie question of his
power In that regard. Another gentleman
said that the farst fnfimafion that
he had that revocation was talked of came
to him through q member OF the supreme
court. A number Of others, who have con-
fdence In Gov. Thayeris backbone and
sand. say that they do not believe that he
will revoke the cali. They think that now
il has been issued he win les Il take its
course.
Nothing else Ia talked Of, and the hotels
are crowded with anxious citizens eagerly
discussing the situation. The opinion is
quite freely expressed that 10 revoke ths
call under the present circumstances would
be 20 sound his political death-knell. Tsi-
egrams are pouring La from ali parts Of the
state urging one way or he.other. II Ii
understood that the State Banker and
Business Mems association, OF 0mahs, has
declared against II, and that they will have
representatives at Lincoln 20 urge the
governor 20 revoke the call.
