UNION PACIFIC WILL FIGHTI Ohartered by the Government, it Will Oppose State Control. WILL TAKE MAXIMUM RATES INTO COURT General Manager Holdrege Predicting Dis- aster, Just as Tows Managers Did—Presi- dent Clark Surprised by the New York Meetlog. There were glum and sour visages about the various railroad headquarters yester- day and the only subject heard discussed was the passage of house roll 33, or the maxi- mum rate bill. Clerks wondered what effe: upon their salar saw in its passag working hours, out in wages, while h departments generally refused to t the subject because no action had been de- | cided upon to meet the problems growing out of its passage. Before it is known how serfously the bill will affect the railroads and in what special cases the rates will have to be lowered to conform to the spirit and letter of the law, the rate clerks of the various raiiroads in Nebraska will have to compilea new rate sheet and this means untold work on the part of th s : "The Union Pacific active as other railroads in opposing the bill, and it will depend on its relations with the govi ment. to evade the new | It is intimated that this corporation will go into the courts at the first opportunity and fight the statute, General Manager Hold of the B. & M in an interview with a Bre representative yesterday tried (to make o ¢ against the pill In the following manner: “Thero is no doubt_in my mind but that house roll No. 33, if put in effect, would erpple the_busin d manufacturing in- terests of Nobraska and would be of no benefit to the farming community, which it is intended to help.

The product of the latter mill would be advanced from Kearney to the Missouri river from 20 to 4l cents per hundred PRESID CLARK SURPRISED. His Official Fate in the Hands of George Gould. Owing to Mr. S, H. H. anything that ors of toadyism the em- ployes about Union Pac headquarters + gave little show to their feelings when the president of the company put in an appear- ance yesterday morniug and began looking over his mail that had accumulated since his departure for St. Louis some days ago. Better than he has been for some time past Mr. Clark at once attacked the mass of correspondence with genuine pleasure, seem- ingly, and his stenographer was kept as busy ng to cateh up with the work. The presence of Mr. Clark at headquarters being noised about, it wus not long before the heads of the depurtments called and paid their respects to a man who enjoys the greatest honor ever accorded a railroad magnate, that of being president of over 15,000 miles of trunk line and representing two important systems in the development of the country. Chatting with a representative of "Tne Beg, Mr. Clark smd: I don’t believe there ‘was ever a more surprised man than I was on the day I received Mr. George Gould telegram announcing that he had withdrawn my resignation from the board of directors of the Union Pacific. 1 was sitting at my desk in Missouri Pacific headguarters when the wire came, and the shock was so sudden and so great that it took me quite twenty- our hours to recover from it, “Not a word had been said to _me about such a contingency happening. 1 supposed it was finally and mutually settled as to who would succeed me. but when George Gould's telegram came it was like & clap of thunder from a clear sky. Of course, knowing the reason for th ction on Mr. Gould's part and reco; bat something had to be done quickl easily understand how it came abou course acquiesced, as Mr. Gould is toda) largest individual holder of Union Pacific stocks. ‘Time was when Mr. Ames was the Jargest holder, but he has relinquished some of his stoek. “AS to the policy of the rodd, it will re- main as now, strengthening the system ‘Wherever we ' regard it as essential and mecessary. 1 shall not be in any great haste to move my family to Omaha and will not think of it for several months yet at least. In fact, I shall make haste slowly in that direction. “Of course, I am glad to be back among my old friends and hope that the transfer to Omaha will. be mutually beneficial. Beyond this I have nothing to say that would inter- est the public.” Clark's hatred of zing 1can ods 1 1daho.

C. F man who lives at 2709 I street, South Omaha, Page went to Smith's office in the Sheely block on February 24 in response to an ad- vertisement offering a situation as book keeper at 5 a month.

A telephone message from Council Bluffs reached police headquarters yesterday after- noon asking that two men giving the names of Cady and Melcher be g sted at once for carting av wagon load of cigars and tobacco. sDetectives Savage and Dempsey ted the men on suspicion shortly after- wards. In an hour or soa man named Deitch 1 and told his story of | how the prisoncrs had loaded up a lot of cigars and tuken the stuff to Omaha. All of { this time Cady and Melcher were not saying a word Captain Mostyn advised Dciteh to go back to the Bluffs and swear out a warrant. In- stead of doing that Deitch went up to_Ju- Cooley’s oftice on the roof of the New York Life building and gave the ‘‘judge” twenty-five big round dollars to act for him and recover the property which he claimed had been stolen. This was a p for Cooley, and he trotted to the jail at a Nancy it. He dashed up to the captain’s demanded to see ‘@ prisoner named Deitch.” **Are you sure that's the man you want to see? " asked Mostyn. Cooley was sure, but on referring toa memoranda found that it was Cady that he after, was brought up, and Cooley kindly off 1 to withhold a complaint if half of the goods were returned. This the prisoner con- sented to, and the pair went up into the court room. Thy Cady changed from a lamb to a lion and proved very quickly that he and Deitch were in partuership and that he had only brought to Omaha what property belonged to him. e the judge discharged both Cady and Melche Jooley hastily left the court room, still clinging tightly to that §25. PORK 13 HIGH, Robert McIntyre Accused of Taking Ad- vantage of the Market. Detectives Savage and Dempsey yester- day arrested Robert MecIntyre, who is wanted at Fremont for grand larceny. Me- Intyre is one of a gang of stock thieves who have stolen thousands of dollars worth of hogs from the Bay State Cattle company dur- ing the season, The ranch of the Bay State company is t@d near South Bend, Neb., and is owned wift & Co. During the season the com- pany has missed large numbers of hogs from its droves but was unable to locate the thieves until recently. It finally got on the track of the marauders and four of them are under arrest. ‘Two were arrested at Fremont, another at Columbus and the fourth and last of the gang was run down by the Omaha detectives. The phenomenally high price of hogs this year has rendered the work of the thieves Very remunerative and they are supposed to have made a small fortune during the win- ter, They would maunage to separate a drove of hogs from the main drove and drive them away to some out of the way station, from which they would ship them to South Omaha or and sell them hand- some profit, considering the vrice at which they secured them. unday Liquor Selling. ators of the Sunday saloon law Lin police court at the after- The complaints were filed upon mformation of the oficers who have watched the saloons for the last few Sundays The o Several v noon 8 inst Sophy Dallow. d wouis Diubalo, we r the judge holding that the evidence was not sufficient to convict.
