George L. Bond, who was convicted Of
the murder of John Wrede, a South Omaha
saloon keeper. during an attempted hold

REPLIES TO CHARGES

Take Advantage of h Court
Rule and Default IL
Claimed.

Charges that the suit for a receiver ana
an accounting against the Omaha q Ne
braska Central railroad was brought TO
discredit the company and prevent its
getting a franchise into Omaha are made
by officers Of the company, who also assert
the suit was not brought in good talth.
To support this last assertion they say
the plaintiff, John w. Eye, has failed to
comply with the court rule requiring him
TO serve notice for a hearing on his appli-
cation for a receiver within five days and
that this part Of the case has defaulted,
Failure TO suggest the names of their pro-
posed bondsmen has also. they assert, made
void that part Of the petition. Now, they
say, the only part of the suit remaining
is for an accounting which they are willing
TO allow.
Anthony Texter, vice president OF the
road, asserts the filing of the suit is part
OF a fight to prevent the road getting a
franchise from the county board along
West . street. The course OF the road will
conflict with that OF the road proposed TO
be built by the Ralston Townsite company
and he claims the litigation was instituted

BRITISH AND AMERICAN JOUR-
NALISM.

Colonel George Harvey, editor of HU-
per'y Weshly and the North american Re.
uec has been giving a course of lectule s
on journalism at Yale College, which has
greatly interested the newspapers. At a
lecture on Monday, at which I was present,
he exhibited a complete model of a news
paper as his idea of what n daily journal
should be-, which was criticised on the
ground that its appearance was more Eng
lish than American. Colonel Harvey frankly
defended his preference for the "clear, clean,
self-rospecting English method" and .hen,
to the surprise and apparently the manifest
satisfaction of his audience, he announced
that, according 10 reports which he had re-
ceived, Ihe Times was saved from the de-
gradation Of the present commercial iniu-
ences, and he was assured that it would

THE KENTUCKY TOBACCO WAR.

The burning of some barns in kentucky
by some masked might riders" to-lay
seems a trivial offence compared with the &C
cumulatod d~epredations they have commit
ed in recent months. They have created u
reign Of terror in the tobacco growing,terri
tory of that State, and are said to have de-
stroyed property to the total value of
f10, 000, 600. The trouble seems to have
arisen through the imposition of a tobacco
tax, and bands Of armed men Mt night
have made systemnti2ed raids on plan
tations whose owners have apparently at'
quiesced IN the tax. From the Incidental
news items reported here only slight glimps-
es are obtained OF a Stale which seems to
have more than its share OF elements Of dis

Improvement in business conditions
during the next sixty days is to be
expected, according to the first sys-
tematic attempt to canvass the situa-
tion among mercantile and manufac-
turing interests in this city. AS
many of the largest firms that an
swered have relations throughout the
west and south, this canvass is one
of more. than local significance and
may be considered fair test of gen
eral conditions west of Pittsburg.
Letters were sent to 2,70O members of
the Association of Commerce, asking
for expressions of opinion and statis-
tics of employees. The replies were
tabulated and showed that twelve per
cent less men are employed today
in Chicago than were year ago. On
the other hand, more than half the
firms responding stated that they
were planning to increase their forces
within the next sixty days and sc
per cent of the firms declared that
they expected conditions to improve
radically in that time. The army OF
unemployed continues to grow,
though not so rapidly. A work test
has just been established at the mu-
nicipal lodging house where nearly
five hundred men are given free &C
