OMAHA, NEE, July 25.-Captain Beck
and tho congressional delegation had
stirring session this morning and Vio'
lencs was imminent for several minutes
at the Winnebago agency, He offended
tho entire Nebraska delegation in his
Office, and would have ordered the sena'
tors and congressman from the room
had It not been for Senator Allen. Tho
proceedings began when Senator Allen
stated that tho two senator's and three
representatives OF the congressional
delegation OF Nebraska had come for
the purpose OF informing themselves as
to the condition Of affairs.
In reply to this Captain Beck made
short statement lie stated that the
Flournoy company had systematically
robbed the indians aud that it was a
corrupt concern generally. Captain
Beck said tho members Of tho FlournOy
com RaHy .7d oveFY one ofiIs friends and
Sympa.hizers were infamous liars and
scoundrels. Just as the captain hnlah'
cd, john +. Myers, the treasurer oi the
company, entered tho room.
"You are not telling the truth and
you know it." he said.
II giant fre.cracker had been ex.
ploded under the captains feet he could
not have been more excited.
"Get out Of here" ho cried, get out
OF hero. This is my office. l will not
have you in it. am master here. You
have been arrested by the Uuited States
marshal and ought 10 be in jail. l will
not have you hero. Get out before
have you thrown out"
An exciting scene ensued. Senator
ThuTOton remarked:
~ wish to know whether or not this
delegation, representing majority OF
the members OF the Nebraska congress
sional delegation, has to proceed with.
out n repetition Of such scenes as the
one We have Just seen enacted. We are
amply able to preserve order without
interference or assistance on the part
of any ono. II this delegation is here
wfthou. rieht-the right oi American
citizens to know how their own affairs
are being conductod-1, for one, am
ready to retire at once"
Captain Beck jumped to his feet and
excitedly exclaimed that he did notrec-
ognize tho authority OF the delegation.
He did not understand that 1t had any
rights which he was bound to respect.
Il was not committee empowered to
act. It had no right to investigate him.
He was responsible TO the secretary Of
the interior and him only. He would
not be insulted in his office.
Mrs. Beck, who had been sitting at
the captains back and acting as Il sort
OF advisory counsel, was also aroused:
She did not address tho congressional
delegation. but in voice loud enough
to be heard By many, she referred to tho
senator who mad spoken as M insolent
man and insulting meddler. She sng-
Costed to those nearest her that the
CAPTAIN ought TO order the entire dele
CATION out OF his office.
The gilence which followed this
scone was oppressive aud Captain Beck
again arose to his feot.
"sit down" Senator Alien spoke the
words.
CATION proceeded without further
trouble. Captain Book submitted let.
