As nearly as can be ascertained the bank itself desires the appointnent of Henry F. Wyman, cashierof the embarassea American National bank, while the opposition is arrayed for Councilman W. A. Saunders, who is backed by the Merchants National bank. Saunders’ fight is being managed by Luther Drake, vice president of the Merchants Na- tlonal, which fact gives rise to the belief that the whole matter is simply a case of bank rivaley. The most reliablo information obtainabio is to the effect that there was the liveiiest kind of a scrimmage before the court, which waxed so interesting that it was deemed best toallow the matter to goover for a couple of days. It is now expected and understood that the appointment will be made tomorrow. Mr. Wyman's candidacy 18 backed not only by the stockholders of the collapsed banlk but by a large number of de- positors. It is understood that the bank officials are securing* the signatures of the depositors to a petition of this kind and that before the appointment is made they will be ln‘:fle to make a practically unanimous show- 8.

THE OMAHA DAILY BE MEN OF EDUCATED MUSCLE Eights of the Two Great Universities to Row Again Today. | IDENTICAL IN AGE, SIZE AND WEIGHT Yalo Has the Lightost Crow in Eight Years, but Is the Favorite in the Bett ng—~ Great Throng Waiting at New Lon New Losvox, G, June 20.—George T Rives, the Now York gentleman who 1s well and favorably known in rowing matters and who has been identified with Columbia and Cambridge (England) crews, will be the referee of tomorrow's ‘Varsity race. Mr. Rives has acted in a similar capacity in o numbor of races here. The crows are doing little work on the river today, and none at all, apparently, on land, the idea ap- parently being to give the men an opportun- ity to gather fall strength for the grand ef- fort of tomorrow morning. Both crows wore out on the Thames very early this morning and pulled for awhile and then returncd to quartel The average age of the Yale crew is 21; ight, five feet cleven inches; weight, 167. The average age of the Harvard crow is 21; heizht, five feet eleven inches; weight, 1081, Yale has fallen in line with Hur: vard's policy of moving all the beofy men possible to tho bow of the boab Harvard adopted this plan early in the season, but Yalo followed sult only when Paine, ' who haa rowed on the crow two years, was dispiaced by Rogers and the Yalo boat relieved of twenty-eight pounds, The crews are identical as regards age and height, though Yale is a pound the lighter, owing to Paine’s removal. This is the light' eat crew Yalo has had for eight years. Eivery train entering tho city today brings & load of adherents of - each party of Riants up stream. The ‘result of lagy aught's “cocked hat” race had a marked effect upon the sentiment in the betting crowd. Today the sporting crowd offer 1 to 3 that Yale will reach the finish line at the big bridge with a lead certainly not less than last year's, Still the Harvard people are not without those who believe in their prowess. The United States rovenue cutter Dexter arrived in port this morning and at once sot about clearing tho course. When she has completed this work the stretch from Gales y 1o the finish at che cantilover will be vithout obstacle, The hour, in_ case the conditions are un- favorable at'11 o'clock, was definitely placed at 6:50 o'clock in the evening. In case of postponement the race will be rowed up stroam, contrary to the morning arrange- ments.” Tide and wind will unquestionably be more advantageous for record breaking at than at 11 a. m,, and the chauces to- night appear a trifle in favor of postpone- ment.

RETRENCHMENT CAN'T GO MUCH LOWER | Reports of Further Reduotion Denied by Unlon Pacific and Barlington Oficials— Frolght Rates in tho West—icknell Resigns—Railway 1 Rumors were current on the stroots yostor- day morning that the Union Pac would still further carry out its policy of rotrenchment by reducing the force of clerks in the build ing and that orders had been given to that effect Inquiry, however, failed to confirm tho ro- port, Mr. Krastus Young, auditor of the Union Pacifle, characterizing the sensational rumor as made up out of the whole cloth. It is the heightof absurdity,” said he, ‘'to think of Mtting 100 men go, because the departments are now conducted with just as few clerks as can do tho business. It is true that reductions in the force are being made over the tem and wherever possible we are laying off men for the prosent, but the rumor that a hundred paoplo are to be dis- missed from the headquarters building as ridiculous as it 18 untrue. 1 have no authority over the men in tho offices except in my department and to reduce my force 100 would leave mo without a man. So you see how absolutely sensoless such a thing is. The person who started the story simply added two ciphors to the number to make it look and souud well. “Of course the company is compelled to retrench wherever possible, but the clerks at headguarters will not be materislly af- fected, as they are necessary to thoe well conducted railway systom. At Burlington headquarters one of tho blg men of the system said that their force was always reduced, it being the policy of the company to keep down expo: in'the matter of clork hireas much as possible, “With us more men are need instead of fewer men, and so it is safo to presume that nothing in the way of a reduction will be applied to the headquarters building.

Woodworth, nssistant general freight agent of the Union Pacifie, recently returned from St. Paul, and in talking of the freight situation said: “Everything is at sea just at present in more ways than one. In fact freight must be at sea, because the roads in the Transcontinental association are not get- ting very much business and the bottom has completely dropped out of freight ship- mants. The rumor in circulation that the “Sunset route’ would advance rates has not a scintilla of truth to bear it out and until Mr. Munroe arrives from St. Paul there is 10 new wformation to be given regarding the situation.
