IR LTI —— WILL WAIT UNTIL MONDAY Packing Honse Managers Issue an Ultimatum to the Btriking Employes. MUST RETURN TO WORK OR BE DISCHARGED Bome of the Men Anxious to Go Back, but Most of Them Remain Firm—Quiet Prevalls Without Any Sign of Disor: South Omaha packing house managers, After a conference yesterday afternoon, de- clded on fesuing an ultimatum to the strik- ing employes. This s, that unless the men return to their places at the old wages by Monday morning they will be absolutely dis- charged, and then the houses will be manned with entirely new forces The managers are confident they would have no great difficulty in sccuring new men. They say they are recelving aplica- tions from men who want work in fowa and Nebraska and that they can get all they want, While the strikers In the main seem to be standing firm, a large number are anxious to have the differences settled once, and some of them say that if an agre ment is not reached soon they will go back to_work any how. It is expected that the committees sent to Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City will report some time this forenoon. A meeting has been called for 10 o'clock sharp this morning, when the report from the special committee will be read. There were fully 1,000 men at the meeting last night. Clip- pings from newspapers were read and Bpeeches urging the men to stand by their rights were delivered by a number of the men. A large number of speclal police have been sworn in by the city, packers and stock yards company. Sheriff Drexel has not sent down any deputies, but sent some men who were sworn In as speclal police. YESTERDAY AT THE HOUSES. At all the packing houses yesterday every- thing was quiet. A few new men have been put to work, but the packers are still run- ning very light forces in the hope of being able to induce the old men to come back. “We will wait until noon today on the old men,” said Mr. Cudahy, “and if they do not come back to work .by that time we will have to get new men to fill the place “In case the men agree to cancel the par- agraph in their proposition which reads that they will not go to work until the grievances re settled in Chicago, Kansas City and St uis, would the packers be apt to accept he scale of wages submitted by the men?” as asked by the reporter. “No,” said Mr. Cudahy. “We are paying Chicago wages now and that is all we can stand. The men who come back will have to g0 to work at the same wages they were etting when they went out. I am told that great many of the men want to come back but are afraid to do so. Several of them have admitted to me that they have no grievance whatever. It was our intention to begin kill- ing hogs at 9 o'clock this morning, but word was sent over here to wait until noon, when it was more than likelv that some of the old men would go to work.” At the Hammond plant 200 cattle were killed and about 800 hogs. Eight cars of hogs were loaded to be shipped out and five cars of cattle, The manager said that word had been sent to him that some of the old men wanted to come back and would do so, but they did not care to go into the plant when the gang that was out was watching them. About twenty new men were put to work here. One man came down from Omaha with a dozen men. He left his gang in the suburbs and went into the house and made arrangements for the balance. The gang then split up and entered the place one at & time In order to avoid the strikers. “We haye been recelving appli- cations from men who want work from Jowa and from small towns throughout Ne- braska. In fact, the country is full of unemployed men, and we can get all we want. It Is true that it is not an easy matter to secure skilled workmen at once, but we had to teach the gang that has gone out, and we cen teach another gang just as easily as we did them.” A few more men went out at Swift's yes- terday, but Manager Foster said he was kill- Ing both hogs and cattle just the same. “Some new men have been put to work,” said Mr. Foster, “and if the old men do not come back pretty soon we are liable to run out of patience and put men on who are willing to accept our pay. I am not particularly alarmed about any trouble, but one thing is absolutely certain, and that is if there Is any law to protect our property and the men who want to work I propose to see that it s enforced. The men that I have talked with tell me they have no grievance. That some of them want to come back, but they are afraid to do so. I will protect our property and the men under any and all clrcumstances.’ When asked if any of the hog butchers intended going back to work, one of the union men who works In that department sald that the rumor was false. “There will not be a single man go back if we can keep them," said he, “by reasonable argument or influence.” Notice by the G.

OLOF BERGSTRCM'S CIVORCE TRCUSLES Alleges that His Wife Was Addicted to the Flowlug Bowl and Wi Unhappiness n Source of Expense— Other Court Cases. The celebrated divorce case n,_ Bergstrom against Birgstrom has taken another turn in the district court. Yesterday Olat Bergstrom filed his answer and cross bill, in which he alleges that the numerous alle- gations made by Mrs. Bergstrom In her pe- tition are absolutely false, and tells a story of the plaintift’s wrong doings that rivals the charges made by her when she had her inning. The Bergstrom case has been regarded with some interest, as Olaf Bergstrom is one of the most prominent Swedes In Ne- braska. Years ago he wad a (Baptist preacher at Moline, Ill, but that life grew wearisome and he came west and went into the land busness in connection with the Unlon Pactfic railroad. He founded the town of Gothenberg in Dawson county, and for a good many years owned most of the village. He also went into the Swedish colonization business, and located a number of settle- ments of his countrymen in this country. When going to Sweden after settlers it was his custom to hire a br: band and take it with him across the water, paying all ex- penses, and thus making an imposing ap- pearance on the other side. He was fairly prosperous in these undertakings and ac- cumulated property valued at $200,000. On July 7 his wife, Elizabeth, filed a peti- tion for divorce In the district court in this county. She alleged that Olaf had been unduly intimate with the flowing bowl and had also taken advantage of hfs absenc in the old country to supplant the caresses of his wife with those who had no legal right to receive them. On Juiy 14 Judge Walton made an order in the case by which Olaf was directed to pay $100 alimony into court for the benefit of his wife within ten days. At the expi- ration of nine days Mrs. Bergstrom's attor- neys went before Judge Scott and obtained a writ of ne exeat regna on the represen- tation that Bergstrom was about to leave the state to avoid the order of Judge Walton, Bergstrom was pretty smart, however, and the sherift was unable to find him, so the writ has never been served. In the cross bill filed yesterday alleges that his wife has been a habitual drunkard for ten years past. On their wed- ding day he took her to his home at Goth- enberg, ‘and she had no sooner arrived than she sent for beer and whisky and proceeded to accumulate a glorious jag in honor of the occasion. Before the marriage Elizabeth was a sort of Swedish prima donna, and after the ex- piration of two weeks of their honeymoon she started out on a series of concert tours which she kept up for two years, while Olaf stayed at home and supplicd the money to fill the vacuum in the financial side of the project. Olaf states that during these trips she drank to excess, and was even at times S0 intoxicated that she was unable to go on the stage. He denles all the charges made in the petition, and farther alleges that his wife has been so violent for years that he has been unable to live with her, and has al- ways provided her with money, which she has spent for booze and in the society of other men. According to his statements she has spent most of his property, and now he thinks that the least the court can do is to release him from the bonds that have been a burden for many years, They Wunt Divorces. A razor, toge'her with a lack of conjugal affection, Is what has destroyed the marital happiness of John and Angelina Plowman. At least that Is what Angelina claims, and she has appealed to the district court to pro- vide her with a divorce and her maiden name. She asserts that within a year or two after their marriage her husband became s0 violent that she was compelled to.leave him for fear of bodily harm, and that in his frenzied moods he invarlably got his razor with the apparent purpose of carving her into submission. Minna Getz asks for a divorce from her husband, John Getz. She alleges cruelty and desertion as sufficient reasons why she should be free. John J. Hanighan has brought suit agalnst J. Herbert McCloster for $1,160.49, Seven hundred and fifty dollars of this amount is claimed as due on promissory notes and the remainder for services performed. Olaf Probate Matters. The quibbles over the Byron Reed estate which have been on the dockets of the county court for a long time past have been amicably settled. All claims have been satisfied and the case withdrawn from the docket. Margaret V. Oliver has filed a claim of $15,000 against the estate of the late Augustus Kountze. This Is on account of some subscriptions to the stock of a western company which she alleges have never bcen paid up. e Fine sandy bottom at Courtiand. e Clan Gordon.

They stated that the convention was the hottest ever held In the North Platte country, thirty-six ballots being taken be- fore the decisive vote was reached. Kin- kald’s men held together to the very last, and the judge was defeated only because the entire fleld was arrayed against him. On the thirty-sixth ballot Dorrington's men went over to Daugherty almost in a body, and many of St. Rayner's delegates followed them. On the final ballot Daugherty re- celved ninety-nine and one-half votes. The half vote gave him the nomination. The convention, which adjourned at 2 o'clock in the morning, was marred by no bitterness of feeling, the best of good nature prevailing among the heated contestants, NASHVILLE, Aug. 3.—The executive com- mittee of forelgn missions of the Southern Presbyterian church met in called session here today to consider the question of the safety of thelr missionaries In China, Japan and Corea, The committee directed the sec- retary to telegraph Dr. J.
