OMAHA, Nov. 24.-Brockman. the st.
Louis commission man, now asserts that
Brown Brothers, the Lincoln grain
dealers. swindled him out Of S75,009. 1t
seems incredible, but he SAYS it was all
done within a period Of two or three

may be inferred from the fact that there
had been eighty-three cats of grain on
the track at Council Bluffs one day re-

New York, Nov. "a. W c.
Andrews, president of the New York
steam company, and until recently presi-
dent OF the Standard Gas Light company,
is likely to be involved in a law suit with
the latter company over the validity of
certain stock, amounting to about 50. OO0,-
600, which, it is alleged, Andrews OBJ
tanned Illegally from the company while
acting as itJ president. Andrews re-
signed two or three weeks ago, j. A.
Bostwick being elected in his stead. 1t
is said hat had not Andrews resigned.
he would haze been expelled
An Injunction was issued tu restrain
HIM from selling or otherwise disposinR
of certain stock. 1t is charged that
81, 900, 900 of stock OF the Gas company
obtained BY him is held by the New York
Steam company, which he is believed to
control. Another action, it Is said, has
been instituted to recover a block of pre-
ierred stock held by him. In this suit 1t
is charged he subordinated the interests
OF the Gas company to those of his Steam
Heating company, that unproductive
properties of the latter company are un-
loaded on the Gas company, etc.
Mr.. Bostwick when seen today said the
company was in financial difficulties a
short time ago n said to protect him
self and others who had gone into it with
he offered to a all the debts of the
company until Is affairs were Strengthened
out. Andrews, whose schemes had far
outreached his capital, had made contracts
he could not keep. As a result Bost-
wick paid out nearly a half million dollars
in thirty days. Much against his advice
IS, 900. GOO of the stock was issued and
given to Messrs. Andrews, Spinola and
Monheimer for distribution.
Later it was discovered that much of
this was sold for an insufficient
ton and the remainder was held by the
three persons mentioned above. This
stock in its present state is tainted and
the books for transfer have been closed
until matters are Strengthened oct. Bost-
wick says the charge that Andrews had
transferred useless real estate from the
steam company to the gas company is I'M
fair. At the time of the transfer he I'M
questionably intended putting up gas
plants on it. Andrews, when seen today,
refused to talk.

A most remarkable incident has oc-
Cured at the City hospital. 1t is the
custom there every afternoon It Q o'clock
for one of the clerks to visit the various
wards and tell the patients who are able
to go home hat they are discharged.
Several days ago the clerk entered NJ

Juelg's cot said: You can go out today.
Your name is on the discharge list. F"
Juelg, who was suffering from heart dis
ease, leaned upon his elbow, and turn

answer, you are not well enough" Be-

DENVER. Nov. 24-From a letter re
celved from the game warden at Meeker,
Colo, 1t is evident that the reports of the
killing Of deer by the Indians. instead OF
being exaggerated, are short Of the truth.
He says a very conservative estimate Of
the number killed would be from 1000 10
5000 head which the Utes have slaugh-
tered this fall. At the present rate of
killing there will not be a deer left in
stock in the national park within three
