There is a lnr‘;c weight on the main floor and in the gallery at the meetings of the Salvation army, who occupy the building as their headquarters, and should the walls ot this old building be insecure, a disaster of large proportions is very liable to occur at any time. Whether there 1s any real danger or not, there are enough people who are nervous about it to warrant the 1ssuance of a certificate from some expert, to quict this nervousness, if all is right. If there is any danger, steps to strengthen the building should be taken at once. The hall is often packed, night after night, gallery and main floor., e J. W. &E. L.

Light Thrown Upon the Mysterious Child Desertion—Getting (Nervous About the Salvation Army Hall —Car Coupling Victimes, History of a Waif. A fow weeks ago, as the readers of the Bk will remember, a boy baby about four weeks old was found on top of a clothes basket the rear of No. 407 nae about 8 o'clock in the evening. The child was then thought to be an ille gitimate one, and the following facts have since come to light. A certain professional gentleman, also a well known gambler, have been frequent visitors at the house of a girl said to be about 25 vearsof age, and until recently a resident of the neighborhood within a few blocks of the Pacitic house. sach of her male admire yisits was unknown to the other and every- tiing went along smoothly until it was discovered that she was enceinte. She was somewhat gone on the gambler, lie being voung, or about, as she thougnt, nearer her own han'the professional man, and tried to induce lum_to marry her, but without cffect. The young gambler thought he'd tr little of his Tprofession” on her and” gave her tho h{nfl'. She then brought the influence of her other friend who had been attending her, into play. ‘The nrofessional man advised the gambler to marry irl and ueed all Tis powers to that of ime was growing precious. The girl's home changed about trom place to place, The gambl wag repeatedly sked to marry the girl, but he continued his bluff game. During the exeitement the gambler quictly packed his valise and was prepared to steal away from the city moment’s notice. LFor fuily five weeks the grip remained ready for removal to parts unknown. During the interim a boy baby was born, and on a dark mght r. Willlam Morris went into the r yard to bring in his wife's (l;lmlws by t and there discovered a boy in ‘T'he child Mrs. Morris yesterday told a Bee man, who called at No. 407 Willow ayenue, i8 a fine, bright, heavy baby, but a8 she has not the time to spare she has de up her mind to let some one clse care for it until the parents eall for it or it gets ready to call for its parents.

The professional géntleman and the gam- bler, also the young mother, have re- gained their equilibrium, but the young girl does not receive such marked atten- tion from either of her two former ad- mirers as pre! y. e Waking Up Again. Work at the transfer now goes on as before the meeting of gene tendents which was held here recently, but how long it will continue remains to be seen. Late Saturday afternoon the general superintendents of all the roads centering in this city were notified by the Union Pacific railway to contiue the old methods of freight transfers, until an- other meeting of general superintendents could be held, and that arrangements satisfactory to all concerned would then be made. ‘Thereupon the local agents in this city received notification and again the freight ears were shoved down to the freight transfer to be transferred under the supervision of the Union Pacific. For seve years there has been much dissatisfaction existing in regard to the gxponses of ruuning the freight trans- fer, as the Union Pacific has only been paying 50 per cent under the agreement, while the five eastern roads have divided the other 50 per cent equally between themselves. It is claimed that numerous attempts have been made to get the general superintendents together within the past two years, to re-arrange the pro- portion of the expense that each road should pay, but without the desired result. Recently, however, after much trouble, they were finally assembled in the parlors of the Pacific hotel, and the proposition that the Union P c pay 70 per cent of the freight transfer expens while the eastern roads pay the ren ing 30 per cent was carried, the only roads voung a; it, being the Wabash and the Union Pac i‘ifh'm) days were given the Union Pacifte in which to make their conclus sions known to the eastern roads, but as they failed to comply the castern 1 withdrew and began (o look after their own transfers. Some of the agents of the eastern roads had engaged check clerks, freight handlers, etc., to look after their interests, but late Saturday |'1ighl received notice to continue as be- ore. A meeting of the diyision superintend- ents was to have been held to-day at the |mssenfor transfer, but as matters now stand, it is exceedingly doubtful whether these gentlemen will put in an appear- ance. It is thought that a mecting of the general superintendents will take placo within the next week or ten daysin order that an amicable arrangement may be entered into before the first of May.

Anderson, the young man who was so badly squeezed between two freight cars at the transfer, recently, is still alive at the St. Joseph's hospital in Omaha and hopes are entertained of his recovery. Juck Hildebrand, the other switchman who was hurt in the same manner and by the same identical cars 18 recovering at the Planters’ hotel on Tenth avenn Both these men were crushed betw the same two freight cars. One being hurt the day after the other, and only a distance of about thirty rods lay be- tween the two places where the accidents occurred. In both instanes the men stepped between the cars to pull the pin, the slack coming up and squeezing them, as the drawhead was out of one of the cars ana they were chained together, Hildebrand’s'injuries were of a much lighter character than thoso of Anderso and the former will probably recover, while the chances are greatly against Anderson, Contractors and builders will find it to their interest to get prices on lime, cement, plaster, hair, ete., from Council Blufts Fuel company, 539 Broadway.
