Prominent Men Arrested and I'm
Danger OF Mob Vengeance.
SIOUX CITY, 10, Sept. 22.-The town
OF Niobrara. in the range country of
Northwestern Nebraska, is undergoing
reign of terror tonight. For five years
cattle thieves have been operating in
tie country along the \ issouri and Mo
brara rivers, and hundreds of cattle have
been stolen. The plan was to run off a
bunch i'll the Ponca Greek country and
t. the railroad at O'Neili or Newcastle,
a distance of eighty miles from this
pace, and then ship them to the mar
ket. On the way to the station the
herds were always added to when the
opportunity was offered. Not until the
early part of this week was clue OBJ
tanned as to the identity of the thieves,
and the result was that nine of the most
prominent men in Butte City and Mo
brara were arrested yesterday for the
The news spread like wildfire through
the range country and several hundred
ranchmen and cattle herders are in
Niobrara today. The talk of lynching
is strong all day, and ali assault upon
the Jail is expected mOmentarily. Those
arrested who gave bonds have sur
rendered themselves TO the sheriff for
protection, and are now in Jail. Fifty
deputies were SWORN in last night armed
with WincheSterS. and are now guard
ing the prisoners.
This ia all that holds the mob in
check. The members OF the mob are
heavily armed, and il is said that If they
undertake to carry out their plan des-
perate fight will undoubtedly ensue.
The names of the prisoners are not yet
obtained,

NOISE AND ENTHUSIASM.
Both Were Conspicuous at the
Ragamuffin Carnival.

1t was pre-aminently carnival of
fun at the Exposition last night, and an
immense crowd of fully 5000 people
damned themselves into the big audi
forum TO witness the ragamuffin, CO.'S
mopolitan, international Jamboree. Not
since the exciting scenes of the Repub-
lican national convention has the Expo
seen such a noisy and enthusiastic
throng. The noise at times was deafen-
ing, and could be heard for blocks away.
As early as O'Clock the people began
to settle in the seats, and a half all hour
later sittlngs were at premium. When
the hour for opening arrived and the
motley aggregation ambled onto the
stage. standing room was not to be had,
and police officers were stationed at the
grand stairway to prevent people from
cloggIng II. The precaution was neceS-
sary, for stampede would have been
fatal.
The gallery was packed. and the ap-
pearance of the Immense throng alone
was enough TO raise enthusiasm to a
high pitch. Consequently every one in
the audience was in an appreciatiye
mood, and run ran high. The opening
number upon the novel programme was
by an artist whose alias WAS Bottleson.
The description of the overture as
printed upon the programme properly
described-it was a revelation of the
possibilities of sound.
The second number was a solo by
another eminent musician, set down

were certainly winners, and the piece
was rendered with a faint suggestion of
harmony, and without the faintest claim
to time. The programme announced
that Elder Stewart would render a

to consent. The privilege was evil

DENIES 1T.
George A. Pilisbury's Connection
With the Guaranty Loan,

GEORGE II. HlilSDuFy'S connection
With the Guaranty Loan.
George A. Pillsburv denies that he
ever gave permission for the use of his
name as director of the Northwestern
Guaranty Loan association. He says that,
on the contrary, lie expressly forbade
its use, and that Mr.. Menage agreed to
fill his place in 1881. Mr.. PilisDury fur
Their says that he invested 500 in the
company. and that he afterwards gave
5000 OF its securities to each of two be-
neVoient institutions.
Mr.. PlllSbury also says that he, with
others, investigated the charges made
against the association by j. Ii. Burke,
of st. Paul. at the time they were pre-
sented, and did not find them well
founded. but that he discovered bust
ness methods practired by it which did
not suit him. and this led to his demand
Cd Mr.. Menage TO discontinue the use
OF his name as director.
Mr.. Pillsbury has been subp9naed
before the grand jury in connection
with the case.
The grand jury gave its undivided at
tention to the Guaranty Loan case YES
terday morning, and the corridors of
the court room were well filed with
prominent business men, waiting to be
called in the case. Each witness is be-
ing examined at length. 1t is thought
the jury will hardly finish the eXamina-
ton before Thursday next. Chris ID.
OBrien, of St. Paul. James w. law
renee and Attorney Harrison were eX-
amined in the morning. In the after.
noon c. w. Huntington was called.

ROASTING MEETING.
People on South Side of Lake
Harriet and Park Board.

The property owDerS on the south
shore of Lake Harriet held a meeting OH
Thursday evening. 1t was an interest
ing meeting-at least to the park board
had that body been present collectively
or in severalty. Peter Sutherland pre-
sided and made speech. He SAID that
the taking OF his property into the city
limits had raised his taxes from SIS 10
81, 800, and he didn't like it; that the
whole thing was planned for the
purpose of confscating property.
He denounced the management of tho
boulevard by the park board, and
claimed that its rules in regard to the
same are unlawful.
E. W. Farwell accused the board of
paying $4,000 for some swamp lands
not worth $4,000, and that unequal as
sesSmentS had been made. Other SpSak-
ers followed in like strain.
The meeting closed with resolution
for the appointment of committee to
consider the matters brought out and to
report to a meeting on call of the chair

wish, provided the shape of such coins
