Tel 56, | OLD WORLD TELEGRAPHY, Mr, Rosewater's Observations Upon the Systems of England an 1 France, Mr. Edward Rosewater, editor of Tue Bre, after an exbaustive investigation as to the conduct of the postal telegraph systems of the continent in his capacity as the accrod- ited reptescntative of the United States government, will give his observations of this growing problem in an unusually inter- esting letter which will be published in Tie SUspAY Bee. The London telegraph offics, the largest in the world, recoives at tho hands of the editor warm words of pr The mannor of work is described succinetly, the workings of the pueumatic tubes told of and the cost of tole- graphing discussed, More than three thousand operators and ks are employed in the great central tel graph building in London, of whom twi thirds are men, The intellig o bureau supplies leased wire service to the great duilies of England, Scotland and Ireland, papers having the right to lease a wiro for all night or shor periods as they may elect. Nobody 15 permitted to receive messagos by sound in the London office, the American Morse instruments with registers and paper reels being used exclusively by the female operators, All the modern telegraph instruments have places in the great operating room, although the Enctish Wheatstone, with modern im- provements, appears to have preference. The Hughes printing instruments, per- fected by English mechanics, are operated on muny lines. Nodiscrimination is pormitted in the trans- mission of dispatches, the only ‘‘ronsense’ allowable in tho whole department being tho printing of telegrams designed for Queen Victoria on extra heavy and eleguntly fiu- ished paper. The most suggestive featuro of the London postal telegraph system, says Mr. Rosewater, is the celerity in handling telegrams. AtBirmingham is located the most spacious and prottily arranged telegraph oftico 1 Europe. The French postal teleeraph is patterned very much after the Buglish, or rather Brit- ish telegraph, which wus established twelve years ago. Morse instruments are used in the Paris office on all short circuits, while the Hughes invention is used on “through” lines. With the French peoplo the Baudet instra- ment is the favorite designed to operate du- piex oc quadruplex.

Contractors Who Can't Get Work on the Lowest Bids. . ‘The board of public works at its session this afternoon will receive bids for paving and curbing & number of streets, but the chances aro that bidders will not be so nuw- ous as in other The contractors arc not satistied with the manner in which the business is run, They nave no particular complaint to filo against the board, but are of the opinion that the council is not inzlined to give soms of thew a square deal. In discussing the subject a stone contractor said, “What's the use of bidding? If I should bo the lowest bidder I would not get the contract without I stood in. To prove this it is only to watch tho course pursued by the council. Some time ago tho board asked for bids on material for perman- ent side wulks. Tne specitications callod for artificial stone, Colorado red and white stone, Boroa stono and Highland, tone. ' The bid on Highland stone was west and this fact was certified up to uncil. That body wrangled oger the bids and finally rejected all of them, simply because one member stated that the Hizh- land stone did not come from Highland, though he admitted that it was of a superior quulity. Now if councilmen wlll reject and throw out bids upon such a flimsy p what is tho use of asking for compet bi he Berea stone people will not vid on stone for curbing, as they fecl that they would not be awarded the contract if they bid far below other stoue dealers. They claim that the council would o a lot of jui- glng and then award tho contract for some other kind of material, This statement they claim is borne out by the facts which became public a couple of weeks ago, when Furnas & Sons bid on Berea, Their bid was the lowest, but it was rejected and the contract awarded to parties who dealt in Colorado stone.

Such an enthusiasm, ho insisted, conld not be simulated, and the teacher for revenue only would soon b detected by the pupils. Coming down to tho practical work of the school room, ho threw out somo suggestions, the value of which he had provea by long ex- pericnco in all classes of school work, Ho ad- visod the teachers to be so familiar with their school work that they should never ap pear before a_class with either book or uote.

Some are positive he will meet with success, while others are quite as positive he will fail. 'The general opinion, however, scems to bo that tbe success of tho move depends entirely upon the banks of the e n states, A bank president who did not wish to bo quoted and who is firm in the belief that Secretary Foster's enterpriso will fail, said: “Supposing a man were to take £400,000 worth of 2 per cent vouds., His interest would be $5,000 clear. I'he tax. would be 1 per cent, which would reduce it to §4,000.

SOUTIE DAKOTA'S CEMENT SUPPLY. ““There is enough chalkstove and sight in South Dakota to supply the ti Portland cement in the whole United ohn H. K of Chamberlain, nd Pac “‘Portland coment is made n kina of stiff clay with chalk- stone, Now the only place in the United States where are found deposits of chalk- stone is alone the banks of the Missouri river in South Dakota. In the ledges and bluffs from five miles above Chamoerlain down to Yankton are found rich deposits of chalk- stone thirty to forty feet thick, and above them are layers of stiff clay which is almost of the consistency of the gumbo in the bad lands. This stretch of chalkstone de- posit s only avout one hundved twenty-five miles long, but thero s enough stone and clay in sight to supply the United States, and when the quarries are worked it is believed there will be found enough stone to supply the world witn Port- land cement.” WORLD'S FAIR NOTES.

When the fire department responded it found the fire to be situated 1 the third story of the building in an unoccupied room. The fire was soon put out, but the suspicions of the chief wero aroused by finding an empty coal oil can in the room. When the police entered the hotel the in- mates fed by the rear windows. The police, however, succeeded in capturing a number of the domestics whom they have neld as wit- nesses, Shrpard & Valentine, proprictors of the hotel, ted at the depot just as they were g to leave the city, They were already under bonds to appear for trial on @& complaint filed by Alice Rickards, charging them with keep- ing u disovderly’ house. They were placed in jail on this charge and will be beld while the police investigate the firo of this morning. The proprietors had mortzaged the furni- ture to J. N. Adrian several days ago and he s to have advanced the money yesterday. he building and furniture bélonged to William Painter. An investigation into the origin of the Oceidental hotel fire was made \u\wnlu\ by Chief Salter and Barnes and Sergeant Tom Ormsby. While there were a number of suspicious circumstances, no positive evidence of arson was found., Speaking about the matter Chief Salter smd: “Sergeant Ormsby tele- phoned me that the police wanted to make an nvestigation, and so I went down with him. As far as 1 could see there was no evidence that the place had been fived. Itis true that I found a coal oil can about halt full in & room on the third floor, but it was not in the room that was aestroyed by fire. We dia not tind any evi- dence 0f conl oil having been sprinkled upon the bed clothing. I even looked at the rem- nants of the bedding that was burned, but could not smell oil on them. While the place may have been fired, [ bardly think from the evidence that we can prove it."

The ex- cellent quality of stock received, the liberal reseipts and the freedom from inspection of any kind have made South Omaha the best market in the country to buy feeders and stockers and buyers fully recognize it. The renort of the Kansas City stockyards for the seven days ending Friday, August 14, shows that oaly 150 head of feeders wero shipped from those yards. ‘The report from the Union stockyards of this city shows that 576 feed cattle were shipped out from this point during the same seven days.

The principai discussion today was on uni- form bills of lading, about which there was such a bitter fight vetween tho shippers and the railroads:last year when the latter were defeated in their efforts to force upon the merchants an iron clad non-negotiablo instru- ment. The shippers iusist upon having a voico in the construction of a bill of lading designed for general use, and they have re- cently agreed upon a form that does not con- flict with their interests, How best to bring about the adoption of tuis form by the rail- roads was the question under consideration toda; It was finally decided to appoint a commit- tee to lay the matter before the varvious traf- fic associations in the hove that an amicablo agrecment may be reached. The committeo as appointed consists of President R. C. Grier of Peoria, Frank Barry of Minneapo- lis, C. M. Osgood of St. Louis, George M. Lane of Detroit and William H. Young of Baltimore.
