Minor Court Matters.

An attachment has been issued by the First
National bank Of Kansas City against Harvey
L. Barnes and others to recover the sum of

creditors, and that he has concealed prop
erty.
On Monday Judge Blair will go to Blair
in order to adjourn the term Of court at
that place until October II, the date upon
court be held. Judge Blair returns Tuesday
to resume his docket.
The S. p. Morse Dry Goods company has
shown its hand in the attachment suit of
Martin & Lipser and others. 1t refuses to
admit anything charged against 1t in the pc

AtchisOn Puts Down inc So"' N"'e
and other Roads May Follow suit
The coal rate situation is becoming inter-
esting. The Milwaukee announced that II
would cut the rate from Chicago and Milwau-
kee to Omaha and Missouri river points from
SO. 20 to $3.50 per ton, The other lines looked
at the matter an instant and decided to meet
the cut, and now comes the Atchison with
another cut. 1t win carry coal from Chicago
to Missouri river points for 81 per ton, the
rate to take effect on Monday, September %.
1t is not known iocally what action the
on "D' account Of the action Of the
Atchison, butt IT is quite likely
that there will be another reduction in rates
on hard coal in a.tewi days. The local dealers
have contracted for most Of their coal at a
fixed figure, and the Omaha consumers will
not get much Of 2 a benefit from the scrap
among the railroads, unless the rate should
the prevailing price 81 hard coal at Chicago
and Milwaukee would. allow the local dealers to
sell coal at $3.50 with, a margin OF profit, and
that is the figure II has been going at for the
past two monthsli This fact, with the further
fact that there has been no reduction in the
wholesale price Of coal in the eastern mar
kets, makes it more certain than ever that
the rate has been cut by the railroads that
have been getting the bulk Of the coal bust
ness into Omaha.
Towns like Fremont and Lincoln have a
very low rate from Omaha on through busi-
ness from the east, and this reduction in the
coal rate will be a losing business to the
roads west OF the river, which will have to
haul coal to the towns named for a very
that now represents the freight receipts on
a car of coal from the east.

THEY NET HIM AT MIDNIGHT.
Holiday Harvest of u saloon Kccpc
RnnnEl hN EnnInnls.

Renpcd by FootpRls.
Footpads who understood their business got
hold of Gus Weckback on Thursday night and
relieved him Of $50 in cash, a god watch end
a few minor articles of value that he had ac-
cumulated as the result of a rush Of business
during fair week, besides taking along some
$500 in notes.
Weckback runs a saloon on South Four
teenth street. He had been doing a nee
business on Thursday and had corralled $50
after banking hours. He clo;el his place Of
business at midnight and started for his home
on South Thirteenth street. He had just
crossed the railroad tracks on Twentieth when
three men sprang upon him from the vacant
lot at the side Of the street and p5ksd thres
big, ugly looking reyolvers under his nose.
One of the men told him that he would be
killed instantly If he made any noise or pro-
tested and that the best thing he could do
was to hold his hands good and high and
keep his mouth shut tight. Weckback con-
sidered the strangers advice as good under
the circumstances and followed it.
Two of the highwaymen held their re-
volvers under their victims nose. while the
other searched him thoroughly, taking from
him the cash, gold watch and chain, and
the papers that are of no value to any per-
son except the owner.
After the robbers had completed their
work they blindfolded Weckback and led him
across town to the corner of Sixth and Pa
cific streets, where they left him. They told
him to be in no hurry about removing the
blindfold, as it might not be healthy, and
after they had left him he waited as long
as he could hear their retreating footsteps,
when he then removed his blindfold and fig
urp1 nm his losses He is unable to give any
accurate description Of the men, as they all
wore masks, and there was nothing about
the dress any of them by which he could
distinguish them from ordinary mortals.

GIVEN A CHANCE TO BREATHE.
Hotel Men Recovering from the Rush
of the Week.

The hotels have resumed the even tenor of
their ways and the offices look comparatively
deserted now, in comparison with the busy
crowds of fair visitors that thronged them
during the past week. The Railways and
entrances are nearly filled with cots and
temporary beds that were used during the
rush and are now being removed. Clerks, who
have been so busy that it has been merely
touch and go with each questioneT, have now
time to indulge in a long breath occasionally
and answer inquiries in a more leisurely
fashion. Many travelling men repre-
senting eastern houses are still reg
istered at the various hotels,
several of them having elaborate dis
plays Of samples In their respective lines,
which they intend to keep on exhibition for
some time yet. Business is still good with
the landlords, but the rush is over.

Suits Growing Out of II Denver Mans
Real Estate Deals.
David Heller made a flying trip from Dem
yer to OMAHA in January, 1898. While in the
city he became mixed up in some real es-
tate transactions which have become highly
complicated. Lawsuits have sprung up and
charges of fraudulent dealings are being
banded about between the interested liti-
giants. 1t is charged that a blind mortgage
was one of the instruments negotiated by
Heller.
A short time since Fred A. Weed began to
f~oreclose on a mortgage for Sc, 900 held by
him on three cottages and a brick store
building, located in Potter & Cobb's addi-
ton. Weed had bought the mortgage of the
Mutual Investment company, which had
obtained the mortgage from Heller in
also another mortgage involved in this
suit for $4,000, placed on the same property
at a later date. This transaction, it is
charged, was carried through by Heller on
his hasty journey from Denver.
Henry A. Allenspach was living in Omaha,
according to an answer he files in the case,
at the time and met Heller on his trip. He
thought him an honest man, so he alleges,
and readily agreed, he says, to enter into a
little deal with Heller all in good faith. 1t
was arranged that Allenspach should ostensi-
bly, appear to buy the property and give
back his mortgage to make the transaction
appear bona fde in all respects. Heller sold
the property and received the mortgages and
notes. Allenspach now alleges that no con-
slderation passed between them. He dis
claims having had at the time of the deal
any knowledge Of any purpose on Heller's
part to defraud creditors.
Allenspach wants an order Of court, cancell-
ing the notes and mortgages. Heller does
not agree to this and has begun a counter
| action, asking to have his second mortgage
foreclosed against Allenspach. The court has
Just been asked to appoint a receiver to pre-
vent the property from depreciating.
