Trouble with Mud Creek.

A number of complaints were made TO
Mayor Ensor yesterday in regard to the
unsanitary condition of Mud creek. and
his honor has announced that he will call
the attention of the council to the matter.
AS the council does not meet again until
June 30 the mayor is seriously considering
the advsability OF calling a special meeting
to take some action. Last year when the
complaints came in. a committee was ap-
pointed to investigate, and located the seat
of the trouble at Swift's. A connection with
the sanitary sewer was made by Swift an !
Company, at the request of the council, and
it was thought that there would be no more
complaints. but this year they come in
stronger than ever, The mayor says that
he is satisfied that the i'll smelling refune
which runs into the creek, is washings from
the stock yards. He proposes to have this
stopped, and will appeal to the courts If
necessary. The stock yards company, he
oaid will be compelled to abate the nuisance.
He thinks that should the stock yards oii-
cials refuse to obey an order of the council
in regard to the matter, that they can be
brought to time by proceedings in the dis
trCt court. The creek, as it is now, is a
disease breeder and a menace to health, and
something must be done, and that at once

The city officials propose to make another
attempt to enforce the ire ordinance and will
| appeal to the district court for an injunction
compelling Crosby & Rich to desist from
| selling ice within the city limits. Mayor
EnSor said yesterday that he had taken the
ordinance to a couple OF well known Omaha
attorneys and they had given as an opinion
that 1t was perfectly good and would hold
In the upper court. This question decided
the mayor and he at once announced that he
would enforce the ordinance in order to
protect the city from damage suits. The dis
trict court will be asked today for an in
junction against Crosby & Rich, and II this
is not obtained the firm will be arrested
here again.
In order to make proper showing in the
district court the mayor directed Inspector
Carroll to obtain FIVE or six samples OF ice
from the ice houses OF Crosby & Rich. These
samples are TO he taken to one OF the col
leges in Omaha and melted, after which the
liquid will all be placed In one vessel and
analysed. II the trial before Police Judge
Christmann last week the court held that
the testing of one sample was not sufficient.
! so six samples were ordered taken.
Two chemical tests OF this ice were made
last winter before II was cut by firm doing
BUSINESS in omaha who in ended purchasing
the crop II it was all right The analysis
made at that time was so untavorahle that
this firm abandoned the idea of making the
purchase.
Mayor Ensor said that unless the ordi-
nance was enforced. now that II had been
passed and become law, the South Omaha
Ice company could sue the city for injuring
its business and very likely recover dam
ages. On the other hand, If the ordinance
was not enforced Crosby & Rich would have
a chance to sue the city for damaging their
business and causing to be made public the
chemical analysis of their product The only
way the city can protect itself will be to

READY FOR ANNEXATION.


San Francisco, Sept. 3.-The steamer
Australia, from Honolulu direct. arrived
today with the following Hawaiian
advices:
Francis NJ. Hatch, minister to Wash.
ington, arrived August 20 with i'm
portant information. which will REQUIRE
the attention of both the government
and senate, and secret notice has al
ready been issued to members of the
latter body calling upon them to meet
IN extra session on September to con-
slider the question. Meanwhile Minis
ter Hatch is in almost constant consul
tation with President Dole and his cab
met. The lawmakers will be asked to
ratify an annexation treaty recently
signed in Washington, and as a major
lty OF the members favor annexation,
the matter will be rushed through.
The reason for an extra session of the
senate at this early date is matter of
conjecture, and much curiosity is
evlnced with regard to it.
A senator is authority for the state
ment that Minister Hatch brought word
to the effect that President Mckinley
had resolved to call congress together
two months earlier than usual for the
purpose of disposing OF the treaty be-
fore the regular session.
Another matter to be considered by
the Hawaiian senate is that of render
ing assistance to the executive in un-
raveling the Japanese muddle. There
are rumors of a split in the cabinet over
the question, and il is said the interven-
ton OF the senate is required to prevent
an open rupture.
The Hawaiian Star created a sensa-
tion by the publication of scheme,
alleged to have been backed by the
sugar trust, to block annexation. 1t is
said every Hawaiian in the group had
been called upon to appear in Honolulu
September IA to participate in NAM
moth demonstration against closer
political union with the United States.
Senators Morgan and Quay are expected
to arrive from the United States on
that day, and the object OF the anti
annexationists is to impress them with
the feeling on the islands.
James b. Castle, who has held the
post of collector of customs since the
queen was deposed. has resigned, ON ac-
count of ill health.

Later developments tend to substantiate

Mr.. Mackie, one OF the owners OF the

down with him 80 ounces OF gold, val
ued at about S7O0. This gold was ex'

ATTACKED BY MOONSHINERS
Deputy Marshals Ambushed and Shot
i'm Arkansas.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 1.-Two
deputy United States marshals are dead,
two seriously wounded and two more
missing as a result of an attack upon
posse of officers by gang of desperate
moonshiners in Searcy county. The
dead are: B. f. Taylor. of Searcy
county and Joe Dodson, of Stone coun-
ty. The wounded men are the Renfrew
brothers. The names of the missing
men were not given, but they are sup
posed to be deputy sheritfs of Searcy
county.
Taylor, one of the murdered men,
was 60 years old and was one of the
wealthiest men in Searcy county. Dod-
son was wellknown deputy and has
been terror to mOonshiners. He was
leading raid when the terrible affair
occurred.
The officers had approached to within
80 yards of an illicit distillery, when
they were fired upon from ambush.
Tayl and Dodson fell at the first vol
ley, dead in their tracks. The shooting
occurred 80 miles from Russellville, at
a point 10 miles south of Witt Springs.
The locality is in the mountains, and
has for many years been favorite rem
devious for moonshiners and counter
feiters. News of the tragedy was
brought to Russellville this morning
| by DR.. Pack, who came after the cor.
Oner.
The men who did the shooting are
supposed to be gang of moonshiners
led by Horace Bruce and John Church,
two of the most desperate characters in
that part of the state.

A CHASTITY Experiment,

Chicago, Sept. 2. - The trial of
Adolph Luetgert for the murder of his
wife, began in earnest today, the pre-
lminary work of securing the jury hav-
ing been completed.
Contrary to the expectations of the
state, the jury will be asked by the de-
Tense to witness an experiment in the
vat in the basement of the sausage fac
tory. This is to be the result of an ex-
pertinent conducted by Luetgert's
attorneys Saturday and yesterday. The
body of man of about Mrs. Luetgert's
age and weight, who met death by vio-
lence Thursday, was taken to the fac
tory on Diversey avenue and immersed
in a solution of caustc potash. Experts
reported that after boiling the body in
10 per cent solution OF potash for the
same length of time as the state alleges
Luetgert disintegrated the body of his
wife, the complete skeleton of the
cadaver remained intact and the solu-
ton had but little effect upon the
clothing.
AS Il result of the test, the defendant
will, it is said, ask Judge Tuthill to
remove his court and jury to the base
ment OF the big sausage factory for a
few hours and witness another expert
ment which the defense claims will
completely disprove the states theory
of disintegration.

STRIKE NEARLY OVER.
Miners Trouble in the Pittsburg Dis
trict Near an End.

Pittsburg, Sept. 3.-The striking
coal miners and operators in Pttsburg
are all at sea over the reported prob
able settlement of the strike. While
both sides unite in the hope that the
great struggle will soon be over, they
all profess ignorance of the negotiations
now said to be in progress with that
end in view.
A large meeting of producers was in
session at the Monongahela house this
afternoon, the object being to formulate
some plans for ending the strike. Ar
rangements are to be made to bring
about meeting with lake shippers for
the purpose OF making an effort to fix
prices that will be acceptable to the
miners officials. W. A. Shields, a
member of the committee appointed
yesterday to arrange for the meeting,
said the members will visit all the
leading shippers and urge them to at
tend the general meeting, which will
probably be held tomorrow He be-
leves something will be done to end
the strike without resOrting to the
severe measures outlined by the large
operators.
W. H. DeArmitt, president of the
New York & Cleveland Gas Coal Com
pany, this evening attached the sigma
ture of his company to the uniformity
agreement. Those having in charge
the securing of the signatures feel con-
fident the rest OF the operators will fall
rapidly in line and the uniformity plan
will soon be an assured fact.
