company said:
"There are good many shareholders
in Europe. and there have been many
inquiries rs to what is to be dene with
the first mortgages and the claim of the
government, small portion of which
comes due in 1895. I suggest to them
that they had better send COM
mittee or some one over from
Europe to represent the European
shareholders. | understand they have
appointed Sir Rivers Wilson for that
position. He is gentleman 1 do not
know, personally. but understand he
is very able man who will thoroughly
comprehend what is for tho best inter-
eats OF the company and will assist ma
terially in making terms with the gov
ernment and in securing new loan on
the issue of new sheet OF coupons se-
cured by the old first mortgage. which
new securities will be sold either to the
present stockholders or to others, the
old bondholders having the preference.

Opening of the Nebraska statesmen's

LINCOLN, Neb.. Oct. 1.-THE fret OF
the joint debates ON political issues, be-

1t is estimated that 1000 people were in
Agricultural hall during the speaking.
The whole state was represented and
many from other states we're present
The fact that both speakers are avowed
candidates for the United States senate
added to the interest of the occasion.
The reception given to the principal fig
ures OF the afternoon was hearty and en-
thusiastic.
@. j. Smythe of Omaha and John p.
Maui Of Lincoln took turns in presiding.
AS Mr.. Bryan was to open the debate.
Mr.. Smythe made the opening state

confined the speakers to no particular

topic.
Bryan touched chiefly on silver, in
come tav and Pacific railroad indebted
ness. The income tax was fair, and he
was satisfied that the future would vim
dicate his judgment. As to the Pacific
railroads, II he were elected TO the senate
he proposed to do his beet to have the
government mortgage foreclosed.
1t was on the silver issue that he W as
most eloquent. He was sure that the
white metal would be victorious event
uelly. He pointed to the gains it had
recently made in all parts OF the coun-
try as O vindication OF his position. Mr..
Bryan was cheered vociferously at the
conclusion of his remarks.
Mr.. Thurston received agreat ovation.
He ia a graceful speaker and in meas
ure has an advantage over his able op-
ponent. His speech was moro OF a gem
eral nature than that of Bryan. He
confessed to be at disadvantage in the
estimation OF some in discussing the
Pacific railroads since he WAS the attor-
ney for the leading company. Still he
WAS confident that it Was not to the ad'
vantage OF the people OF the whole coun-
try to have the government foreclose its
second mortgage since 1t must first pay
the enormous first mortgage indebted
ne Is.
Replying to Mr.. Bryan's income tax
views, he was brief and deprecated the
measure, saying ne believed it could no,
endure. On silver the speaker became
brilliant. After declaring, to the sur.
prise OF some, that he favored the free
coinage of the American production, be
pictured the enormous loads Of foreign
white metal that would be dumped into
this country in the Q, ent OF free coinage,
and at the close declared the idea Was
perfectly preposterous.
In Mr.. Bryon's closing reply he be-
came personal, end denounced Thurston
for his political ects of the past.
They speak at Omaha tomorrow
night.

1t is very seldom that a man gives in

singular request. Mr.. Proven feeling
that he had little time to live, personally
cabled to his brother-in-laW, a few DAYS
since, to send over their foreman under

to bring with him embalming instrumets
While the friends of the absent gentle
man were making preparations to send
the man over TO England, another and
more pressing cablegram arrived asking
the foreman to hasten his departure and
also to bring a netal-lined coffin. As a.
matter of course, there was no time 10

Friday, taking passage on board the Do

in having to depart on such a mission.

no trouble whatever in landing him on
Blackwell's Island, to answer a charge OF
abduction, the penalty for which Is i'm

years. Detective Wheeler arrived home
from New York yesterday, the little girl
and her mother coming over with him. Il
was early last week that the young South
Carolinian left here with the pretty little
girl, who was SO DESTROYS of going on the
stage and it was because of a promise to
get her In theatrical company that the
child consented to go with him. When they
reached New York the couple stopped AZ

Maud was more than glad to be able once
more to rest her head on her mothers
shoulder and have the latter's arms folded
about her. When the jefferson Market DO
lice court was reached yesterday morning
warrant charging abduction was filed
against the prisoner and he was given a
preliminary examination. The Gerry So
ciety appeared. through its Representatives,
to prosecute the case, which they did in a
manner indicating that the case would be
followed TO the end. The little girl who
was accompanied by her mother, went on
the stand and told Justice Ryon of the cir
cumstances under which she left home
telling him that Jatho had promised to get
her place where she could appear ON tha
stage.
Judge Ryon had no hesitation in saying
he would hold the prisoner for the action
of the grand jury and fxed the bond at
5000, which the prisoner was unable to
give and he was therefore committed to
the Island.
The case will be investigated by the grand
jury Monday and soon afterward Jatho viii
