TAX WITH RED MEN.
A Regular Indian Council is
Held at Omaha Agency.
Nebraska Congressman and 200
Omahas Have a Conference.
Is TIRED OF POOLING.
Capt. Beck Has Two of the
Party Arrested.

OMAHA AGENCY, by courier to Pender,
Neh. July 25-Hardly had the congress
sional delegation with an escort of
nearly 100 citizens of Fender, after a ride
OF twenty-five miles across Thurston
county, entered the confines of Captain
Beck's reservation when Deputy Mar
shat Boehme swooped down on William
E PEBBLES and John F. Meyers, placing
them under arrest as cOnspiratOrs against
the government of the United States
1t was the first gun from Captain Beck
and the delegation of citizens together
with the congressional delegation were
somewhat nonplussed over the turn al
fairs had taken. Captain Beck said he
was tired of fooling and proposed to exc
cute the laws as he found them on the
statute books, and wanted it distinctly
understood that he was responsible for
the agency and the wards of the govern
ment.
The warrent which Deputy Marshal
Boehme read to PEBBLES and Meyers also
included the name of John Lennon,
president of the Flournoy company, and
George S. Harris, who were not present
at the conference with the Indians. the
warrant charges the men with consplra :
cy 10 oppose the government OF the Uni
ted States by force and to effect the OBJ
ject of said conspiracy, they armed 29O
farmers and sent them on the reserva-
ton to resist properly constituted United
States legal authority.
PEBBLES. when served with the war
rant, said that it was entirely in keeping
with the policy of Captain Beck ever
since he came to the agency and that he
would appear before Justice LOndrosh
of the Winnebago precinct and waive
examination to the Unitod States district
court.
This excitement being somewhat
abated. the council was erected under the
shade of a number of trees fronting the
school house of the Omaha agency. The
congressional delegation took seats, and
in front and around them were gathered
at least 200 members of the Omaha tribe.
Senator Allen opened the council by
stating. through an interpreter, that when
/ he was here a month ago he said he
would visit them again and talk with
them fully with reference to their lands.
the question of allotment being upper
most
He then introduced to the Indians,
with solemn fOrmality, Senator Thurston,
Congressman Meiklejohn, Strobe and An
dreWs.
1--WE are here" said the senator from
Nebraska, "for the purpose of listening
to your wants and your grievances. We
will then go to the Winnebago reserva-
ton, where troubles of far different
character command our attention"
Captain Beck, who was exceedingly
anxious to make as good a showing for
his case as possible, suggested that an
Indian in favor of allotment be requested
to speak first and then an Omaha op-
posed to an allotment be heard, which
suggestion was adopted by the commits
sion.
A number of Indians spoke on both
sides of the proposition. The delegation
adjourned late in the evening to go TO
the Winnaharo AGENCY

THIS WICKED MAN.

He Bet Election, and Republicans
Who Never Do Had Him Arrested.
The men who tried to get Governor
Morrill, to GUST R. c. Foster commissioners
of elections of Kansas City. Kansas and
failed have now had that officer arrested
on criminal charge, expecting in:that
way to have him removed
Commissioner Foster at his hearing
before Governor Morrill, admitted that
he bet $50 on the election of Lewelling,
and he has now been arrested for violat-
ing the anti-gambling law.
Governor Morrill, said this morning
that the arrest of Foster is a foolish
move. as he cannot be removed from Of
flee even if he is convicted of violating
the gambling law.
The governor says the only thing to be
accomplished by Fosters arrest will be
to fine him 500.
The governor probably thinks it was
bad enough for Commissioner Foster to
lose his $50 last November without being
forced to put up another $50 now.
If all the men who bet on the election
last fall could be removed from office
there would be lot of vacancies to fill
about the state house, and everywhere
else,

He Is Caught in Kansas City and Put in
Jail Here,

Chief Wilkerson and Officer Gaines
returned from Kansas City last night
with Anthony Hamilton. who is wanted
at Topeka for burglary. Hamilton has
served two terms in the Kansas peniten-
tiary and one term in the Missouri peni-
Tertiary
Last Saturday, Hamilton, who is COL
ored man. % years old, entered the house
of o. P. Updegraf west of Topeka on
the Silver Lake road and was discovered.
A posse of neighbors pursued the bur-
glar. While he was yet pursued the bold
rObber stopped at the house of a farmer
named Messenger and stole q shotgun and
a suit of clothes. When the pursuers got
too close the fugitive stopped them with
gun and then went on In safety. The
sheriff's Office was notified and the en-
tire force of deputies were soon tracing
the man. He was tracked from the
scene of the robberies to the Rock Is
land bridge.
Monday he was located in house. in
the colored settlement southeast of
Crosby's mills. Sheriff Burdge and
Deputies Wilkerson, Jones and Owens
surrounded the house, but Hamilton and
his partner heard of their coming and
were not there.
The shot gun which had been stolen
was found in a second hand store
on East Fifth street. 1t was suspected
that Hamilton would go to Kansas City
| Chief Wlkerson and Officer Gaines went
to Kansas City, Mo, Tuesday night and
searched for the man without finding
him. Yesterday they searched the river
bottoms of Kansas City, Kan, and found
their man. He has been identified.
Hamilton was kept at the city prison
just long enough to have his name en-
tered on the docket and was then trans
! ferred to the county iaiL
Hamilton was taken to the penitentiary
the first time by Sheriff Chester Thomas.
/ Today he inquired about Mr. Thomas
and expressed much regret to hear that
| he was dead.

to advise purchases of wheat on

Commissioner of Elections Frank Herald
say they would not now be surprised if
the governor would refuse to remove
Herald.
They say the governor has been placed
in very embarrassing position by the
charges made, that he hal made certain
promises for the appointment of Herald's
successor, and it would relieve him of
this embarrassment if Herald is allowed
to hold the Office.
These Republican committeeman say
they believe Commissioner Herald will
conduct his office fairly if allowed to

his case to the supreme court if the gov

OVERDOSE OF MORPHINE.

DIR. Rupin's Daughter HTiscaIcuIates the
Amount of AypOdermic Injection.
Mrs. Julia Thieb, a daughter of DR..
Rupin, living near Sixth and Madison
streets, came near dying last night from
an overdose of morphine. Rumor had it
that she attempted suicide. but this is
staunchly denied both by her relatives
and the young woman herself. Since a
surgical operation several months ago,
Mrs. Thieb has taken hypodermic injec-
tions of morphine to ease her suffering,
and she has become addicted to its use.
Last night she injected an extra large
dose in her right arm, between the wrist
and the elbow. 1t required the best eff
forts of several physicians to save her
life. Today she is out of danger.

THEIR TALK FLOWS ON
HOrr and Harvey Resume Their
Long Debate Today.
Yards and Yards of Figures
Tossed Carelessly Around.
HARVEY EXPLAINS 1T.
Financial Depression Caused by
Too Much Credit Money.
1t is Out of Proportion to Other
Moneys.

CHICAGO, July 25.-The Horn Harvey
silver debate was continued this after
noon under about the usual conditions.
Mr.. Horr opened the discussion. He
began by saying that the 41215 grain
silver dollars coined between the years
1853 and 1873 were all coined at the
Philadelphia mint and from foreign
silver coins which had accumulated in
the treasury under an act of congress-
which made them receivable. but did not
permit them to be paid out again. That
was why silver was coined at less than
its bullion value. After 1858 the govern
ment did not coin dollar of our silver
coinage for private owners.
Mr.. Harvey in reply denied the state
ment and declared that he could not
prove it He presented mint statement
showing that over 100000 in silver dol
lars had been coined at the mint at Car
son CITY, Nevada, in 1870. Mr.. Harvey
then resumed the discussion of the ques-
ton of primary and credit money. He
SAID that as soon as there was an over
issue of credit money it caused distrust
of the governments ability to pay.
This caused run on the treasury for
the redemption of credit money, aud the
only remedy was to either increase the
amount of the primary money or a de-
crease of the amount of credit money.
The amount of gold in the United States
was estimated at from $500, 100000 to
$60O,0OO,OUO. and of our credit money
about $1.OOO,OOO,O0O. This was too much
credit money, he said, and accounted for
the eountry's financial arrangement The
remedy was to increase the primary
money by remonetizing silver Every
moments delay would endanger the safe
