GIVE THE COURT A CHANCE
Members of the Fire and Police Commission
Ask for Peaceable Settlement.
BUSY PERFECTING THEIR PLANS
Howling DerNishes spend the Night
in Arranging the Program for
Todny-Furthcr OMcinl Cor
rcspondcncc Exchanged.

The following has been given out for publi-
cation by the members Of the Fire and Police
Commission:
In view of the fact that nnammatory pub
locations have been circulated in Omaha
respecting anticipated complications and con-
1ct between the present Board Of Fire and
Police Commissioners and the one in which 1t
is claimed will be appointed shortly after the
first prox.. and in further consideration Of
the fact that many believe that after the first
day of the ensuing month there will be two
Boards Of Fire and Police Commissioners
and two organized police forces in the city
receiving orders from two different sources,
with a tendency to violent collision. the ua-
dersgned feel constrained to make the fol-
lowing statement:
The present board Of commissioners is a
legally established body in full complete and
absolute possession of its respective offices
and intends to assert and maintain such pos
session until its right to its public trust Is
determined by the supreme court of the state.
1t proposes to exercise the right of its office
in lawful manner only, with consderate-
ness but with irmness.
The question. after the 1st of August en-
suing, if another Board of Fire and Police
Commissioners is appointed will b. Which
is the legal board? The creation b. another
body of police will not, cannot change the
above question.
The undersigned are anxious to have tn!
matter settled by the supreme court at ;he
very earliest moment practicable. 1t is for
their personal interest that il should be, for
neither they nor any one else can afford to
hold an office to which they have no title.
1t is our desire to be conservators of the
peace, and our energies will be directed
toward the preservation of good order and
the protection of life and property.
Believing that the law passed by the last
legislature deprives us Of the offices to which
we have been duly appointed by the governor
who under the constitution is alone clothed
with executive functions, and believing fur
thermore that the act by which the present
board is proposed to be abolished is null and
void, we deem it our duty to continue in the
discharge of the functions vested in us by
the charter under which the city of Omaha
is governed. c. II. BROWN,

Trunk Murder Mystery Cleared Up.

OMAHA, July Ga trunk murder mys-
terry which has disturbed Omaha since
Tuesday was cleared up last night, when
the frightfully mutilated body of the vic
tim, John e. Seljan, was found in the
river, and Mato Mikan and wife, Anton
Beckovith, John Urban and John Drub-
nitz were formally charged with murder.
The prisoners still refuse TO talk, but the
police expect confession. The throat OF
tho body was cut from ear to ear, the head
was mashed as with an ak, and other parts
of the body were frightfully lacerated. 1t
Is believed the man was surrounded by the
murderers, and, resisting, was slowly
hacked To piecas

S1R-The Journal said the other day:
1.-The last echoes of the calamity howl
that began when the Mckinley tariff was
repealed may now be assumed to have
been heard, for even Governor Mckinley
Is quoted as saying that 'the business OF
the country Is vastly improved over this
time a year ago. How this improve
ment can have taken place without the
help OF his tariff he does not seem ready
to explain. Perhaps IT is just as well that
he should not try.n
AS "a matter OF fact the Democratic
party upon coming into control OF the
govern ment, after period of political
stagnation for nearly n generation, ex-
hibited such utter incompetency as to
lose the confidence OF not only their own
party, but all other parties i'm this coun-

fidence in them was also shaken as TO
cause such unprecedented stagnation I'm

never known, aggreating billions OF dol

and the tide OF renewed prosperity started
by the tidal wave OF the last election.

New YORK, July 6.-There was o sharp
brush In mid-ooean Tuesday between the
Cunarder Lucania and the American
liner Paris, which tested both boats In a
light sea. The Lucania has double the
Paris hose power, but In heavy weather
the weaker liner has always managed to
forge ahead. 1t was early In the day when
the two boats came In sight. When the
Paris discovered the Lucania astern, pillars
of smoke piled from her stacks. For a
time the broad patch Of deep sea between
the two did not lessen. When tho two
finally came abreast at 2p. IN. 1t was nip
and tuck for several knots. But the Brit
ish boat drew ahead. Late last night tho
lights Of the Paris were lost astern. Even
the officers of the Lucania expressed sur
prise at the speed made by the Paris.

conditions will be good for pushing
agricultural pursuits. Heavy hail
storms and marked tendency to
local clouldbursts will characterize
The precipitations Of this month.
June will prove the stormiest month
Of the summer, aud the heaviest
rainfall of the season will occur
during tina; month. Rain may not
be distributed as it is greatly to be
desired, but all sections will be
visited by seasonable falls, while
enormous downpours, amounting
to local floods, will occur in many
places. The remaining months Of

promise to be dry and warm.
