A SENSATION FOR NEBRASKA.

Alleged Revelations Regarding the Verdict
in the Boyd-Thayer Case. -
CHICAGO, May IA special dispatch from
Omaha says: bombshell has been exploded
in political circles by the official announce
ment that the verdict in the Boyd-Thayer con-
test case was rendered by the supreme court
with discussion Of the issues and merits Of
the case by the judge OF the court. Never dur
ing the entire proceedings was there q confer
ence held at which Judge Maxwell was permitted
to express his views or interchange views with
his colleagues. Judge Cobb was out Of the state
several weeks, and Noryal, the youngest man on
the bench. is the ostensible author of the ma
jority opinion to which Judge Cobb appended
his name after private consultation, in which
the Oldest justice on the supreme bench was
entirely ignored.
Immediately after the opinions were fled
Judge Cobb left the court room with
Gov. Thayer, John T. Webster and Judge
Mason He went to the clerks Office
and ordered the writ issued without the con-
sent OF his associates When Maxwell and Nor
val learned that the writ of custer had been
surreptitiously issued, Judge Maxwell indig-
nantly characterized the proceeding as beneath
the dignity Of the court. He cited the rule Of
the court that the defendant had a right to
his motion for a rehearing and that in no
event could any writ be issued inside
of forty days unless by express order of the
court. Norval agrees with Maxwell that the
proceeding on the part of the chief justice was
irregular and in violation of the rule of the
court, yet he did not join with Maxwell for q
recall of the writ
That Boyds summary taking of was precon-
certed is proved by the fact that Penitentiary
Contractor Mosier was on hand in the capital
an hour before the decision was rendered, and
promptly presented himself to sign Thayer's
bond This will constitute the chief plea in the
appeal to the United States Supreme Court by
Boyd-

or four others are still missing.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, May l1.-Forest fires have
been raging for the last forty-eight hours in
the country to the southwest Of West Supe-
rior and an immense amount Of pine has
been destroyed. The fire reached the
suburbs Of the city and destroyed some
property Of small value. South Superior,
now St. Louis, was thought to be doomed, but Q
big new hotel and the few stores in the place
were saved by the people digging trenches and
stopping the progress Of the flames in the un-
derbrush. Five thousand cords Of wood and
two houses were burned, entailing . loss Of
s12,O 900.
Ashower arrested the flames and strong wind
of the lake 10 beating the fire back. From
Bayfield, it is reported that immediate danger
from forest FIRE to that place IL considerably
abated. Fires are still burning near Pratt with
considerable loss Of standing timber to the
Neil Pratt Lumber Company. The wind has
shifted TO the northeast Of MS, driving the fire

STOCKS ACTIVE AND FIRM,


A Downward Movement Of the "Industxinlsss
Affects Prices for . Time.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE stock market opened
the new week with . decidedly active business,
and although first prices were irregularly
changed from tho finals Of Saturday q weak
tone was soon developed under heavy
selling pressure. The weakness was most ap-
parent in few spots, however, and as might
be expected, the industrials were most con-
spicuous in the downward movement, cord
age dropping q per cent to 96sz. and Chi
cage gas ~ to 4S1f. In the railroad hst
while there was sympathy with this
weakness, the losses were on a much
smaller scale, and few stocks, like Louisville
and Nashville, displayed considerable strength
in the face Of the falling market. The support
was SO evident that the selling pressure was
materially diminished later in the hour and all
the active stocks recovered the early losses and
scored small gains in addition, Louisville,
St. Faul, Burlington and sugar leading the
upward movement. The decrease in activity
was marked in the late dealings and the best
prices were not in all cases maintained. But
at II clock the market was still active and
firm, generally at small fractions better than the
opening prices
Silver opened at 90; highest sale; ss1S; lowest
sale, 50; last sale, $50.
