THEY MARVELED AT OMAHA. The Visit of the Senatorial Commit- tee on Indian Affaira, A SUCCESSION OF SURPRISES Culminates in the Highest Apprecia- tion of the Relative Solidity, Su- periority and Magnificen of the New Bee Building. Distinguished Visitors, Two members of the senate sub-committes on Indian affairs, and their retinuc of subor- dinates, arrived at 10 o'clock a. m., yesterday The senators were Messrs, Dawes of Massa- sachusett, ana Jones of Alabama, who were accowpanied by their wives. Senator Stock bridge and wife who were to bave boen with the party were accidentally left behind in Chicago. Senator Manderson, Congressman Connell and wife, Mayor Broatch and Fire and Po- lice Commissioner Hennett were at the Bur- lington depot when the train bearing the dis- tinguished party arrived. To the visitors these extended a hearty welcome, The latter were at onco escorted to car- riages and driven around the city until 2 o'clock, when an elegant lunch, given by ;Hmlulor Mandersoa, was served at the Mil- ard. The drive was _south street, through Herman Kountze's beautiful grounds around Browneli hall, thence across the Eleventh street viaduct up jown and out Sixteenth street to Ilort Omaha. where half an hour was devoted plensantly to viewing the charms of that in- viting spot. On their return Tie Ber building was vis- ited and inspected; also, the New York Life Insurance company’s building, after which the drive was continued to the west side, :mulnd by Hanscom park, and thence to tho otel. A short visit was made to Mr: Connell's residence, where light refreshments were served. Mr. and Mrs, Connell rode in the_carriage with Seuator and Mrs. Dawes. The senu- ator's daughter and Mrs. Connell were intimate friends and room-mates while students at Andover colloge, Mass- achusetts, and the two families are friendly acquaintances of long standing. Senator "Manderson and Mayor Broutch occupicd the carriage with Senator Jones and wife and Mr. Bennett took chargeof the other gentiemen of the party, Hon, W. P, Canaday, sergeant-at-arms of the senate, Mr. Arbize Smith, superigtendent of the senate docurients, Nathun Parker and Mr. Olin, elerk of the committee. Scoator Manderson is also this commission and accompanied by Mrs. Manderson, left with the party last evening on'is tour through the northwest and Alaska, The chief object of their trip is to investi- gate the of mplaints that have been made for several years regarding tue treatment of the Indians of Alaska. The Indians have never been under the control of the department of the interior and are without the supervision of agents. The commitiee expects to be gone about two mont During the day bagzage was transferred from the Burlington to a special car of the Union Pacific and the balance of the jourcey across the continent will be mado on that roud. At half past 11 o'clock the visitors called at Tne Bee building, were received by Mr. Ed- ward Rosewater, the editor of;this paper, and shown through the structure.’ The surprise of Senator Dawes, Senator Jones, Colonel Canaday, and the ladies, at finding' such a grand newspaper office away out 1n Omaha, was expressed in the warmest terms. The party visited the editorial quarters, tho com- posing room, which elicited their special ad- miration, the sterotyping room, the press room and the machinery floor, The limit of their wonder was not reached, however, until they were taken into the court. Its beauty and grandeur called forth exclama- tions of getuine admiration. Senutor Dawes said: I have been in a great many newspaper offices, but never saw one that equals this, Certainly, we have nothiug i New York, Boston, or anywhere else that 1 know of to compare with it.” Mrs. Dawes was especially interested and delighted. The lady bad never witnessed the stercotyping process, aud on being shown a page of matrix from which the plate is cast was 80 surprised that sho the matrix moulded to take with her as a souvenir. Her wish wa fied, and the novelty was prized v Senator Jones said: It surpasses any Yuilding in my kuowledge, That court 1s the finest thing of the kind I eversaw. Itis a great surprise to find the biggest and finest newspaper office in the country here in ©Omaha, and it speaks volumes for the enter. prise and energy of Mr. Rosewater." While in Tur Bee building the party was joined by Congressman George W. E. Dor- sey, of Fremont, aud Judge Savage, of this city. ‘The lanch at the Millard hotel was elegant and was served in the private dining-room of the hostelry. Mr. Olin, clerk, of the committee, is an old newspaper man. He was formerly connected with the Boston Advertiser, and conse- quently knows how to_appreciate the advan tages of a complete newspaper office.

Vice President Van Sant called the meet- ingto order in a few complimentary re marks on the evident increase of interest in the association, as shown by the large num- ber of non-members present. After the routine of business had been gone through with, an election for the offices of second vice president and assistant secre- tary was held, which resulted in the clection of Thomas P. Wilson and Miss K. Graves, The secretary was instructed to notify all the stenographers in the city of the time of the next meeting and invite their co-opera- tion in the work of the association. Then followed the discussion of the different sys- tems of shorthand, which was quite animated, and all seemed to be very learned in povping questions to the perplexed propounders of the various systems. Mr. ¥. C. Shafer said that he had forgotten hisalphabet and would have to be excused from the fire of such artillery, and another gentleman, when asked to illustrate the merits of his system by writing the Lord’s Prayer, boldly sultied forth, and before he was half fimshed asked what was next after “as it is in heaven.” Mr. Hopkins proceeded to cut down with a single swath the whole theory of the Ben Pitmanites, taking a sentence and writing in both systems and counting the nuinber of strokes, pen-liftings, etc., which was quite damaging to the disciples of the former sys- tem, especially when he related the story that is told of J.J. McElhone, official re- porter in the house of representatives at Washington. It was during an exciting de- bate on the tariff, and the speaker was called upou to recognize a dozen men who were clamoring vigorously for recogmition, and the reporter was expected to report verbatim everything that was said by them. It 1s said that he did it. Now subposing that each of these men averaged 100 words a minute the reporter would have taken down 2,200 words 1 a minute, which effectually silenced all would-be controversy with respect to the speed of the various systems. ‘the reporters in both houses are Pitman writers.

For some time past department com- manders of the G. A. R. have beeu on- deavoring to obtain o rate of onc cent por mile for all veterans going to and returning from the national oncampment, in Mil- waukee. It has been reported that the low- est rate offered by the passenger department of the Central Traflic association 18 one first- class limited fare, Major Clarksou of this city who is one of the five members of the council of adminis- tration of the G. A. K., was sesn in regard to the action of the commanders below referred to, and endorsed the action, “The G. A. R.," said be, “at its nationag encamprient, seldom brings fewer thau 100,- 000 people together, Last year at Columbus oV 1,000 people were in attendance. If the railroads fail to give us the rate of one er mile which they have boen giving rganizations the patronage of the railroads will be decreased from 50 to 50 per nt, and, if only the duly authorized repre- sontatives of thé G. A. K. attend. there will Le only 1,000 persons to be transported by tho railrouds. At the St. Louis eucampment two years ago, the G. A. K. secured tickets at the rate of 1 ceat per mile for th nd trip. The same rute was given to the Coluwmbus encawpment. This year, Milwaukee was choscn as the pluce of holding the encamp- went on the pledge of the railroad oficl and the city of Milwaukee by representative citizens that we should have as favorable ratos a8 wo ever had. Milwaukes has ap- saled to the Chicago, Milwaukeo & St aul and Northwestern roads for the old rates, but has been refused. The first move of the railroads was to exact one and one- third fares for a round trip ticket from Chi- cago to Milwaukee, At tho samo rato, the round trip ticket from Omaha to Milwaukeo would be $14.20 as against $10, the rato at 1 ceflt per mile. Not less than' 3,000 tickets would be sold from Nebraska if the rate wore $10, *“The rate wo ask for was granted to the members of the German Turn-Verein on their recent trip to Cincinnati. Probably 10000 poople were transported on_that.« cursion. The rate given tie turners of this city to Cincinnati and_return was $15.75 for ransportation over oue thousand five hun- dred and ninety-six miles of railroad, being less than a cent a mite. “Is it possible that the old soldiers shall not be entitled to as fair consideration on tho part of the railroads as other association membors? On Juno 15, John N. Abhott, chairman of the Western State Passenger association, son for refusing tho rates r that they were lower than those the association had decided upon. And yet, three days later tickets were on salo ffor other people at a lower figara than we had asked for.” If it should prove truo that the request of the soldiers has been denied, the various de- partment commanders will b called upon to enforco the resolutions adopted Monday to discourage the attondance of all excopt mem- bers of the national encampment, and further to call upon the commander-in-chief to issue a general ordor requesting only the duly authorized representativesof the Grand Ariy of the Republic to attend the encamp- ment. The number of such_representatives is believed to be less than 1,000, while the at- tendance at the encampment was expected to be many thousands. Licensed to Wed.

The trial has developed intc a powerful legal battle between Colonel Kaufman, a Des Moines lawyer, who represents Anderson, and J. M. Woolworth, ihe attorney for defendants. They fought ncarly a whole day over a mo- tion made by Kautman to introduce as tes- timony conversations had by Anderson with various members of the syndicate, to which Mr. Woolworth strenuously objected.

We find upon examination of the “Sick Claim Department,” that all claims properly approved aro pald with promptness. When cluims are deluyed ut tie Home Office, it is owing generally to the want of additional proof required by the Supreme Medical Director, and in muny cases sick claims are gent to the Home Office iregularly made out by the oflicers of the Local Branches, and have to be returned for correction, which causes a delay in their payment.
