8 THE OMAHA DAI LY BEE: TUESDAY, NO FASTER MAIL THAN EVER Gain of Fourteen Hours to Business Men on Letters from the East. CHANGES IN THE BURLINGTON SCHEDULE More Time Made by Working Up the Mail on the Traln—Probabllity that Im- provement Wil e Made in Service from West. These are the days of improvement in the tallway mall service, and Postmaster Clark- son is pardonably Jubilant over the turn affairs have taken for his patrons. It was | & foregone conclusion when the Northwestern put on its fast mall from Chicago to Mie- | sourl Valley that the Burlington would not permit its old time rival to carry off both the loaves and the fishes, and the moment the Northwestern announced that it would arrive in Missouri Valley at 1:45 p. m., leav- ing Chicago at 3 a. m., the Burlington peo- | ple began fguring upon shortening up the time of the arrival of their fast mail, and y terday afterncon the benefit of the new service was felt by the people of Omaha In the business district The moment Major that the Burlington would thorten its tim: he asked permission of the Chicago office to place two men of his department to work the mail for Omaha business houses while en route, tying and resacking the matter, so that the carriers would only have to route the mail before leaving the office. This re- quest was granted, and yesterday morning two of Postmaster Clarkson's men left for Creston, where they met the fast mail on th Burlington and worked the Omaha m into Omaha. The moment the mail arrived on this side it was hustled into a wagon nd placed in the Omaha office ten minutes after its arrival. Five minutes after it was routed by the carriers, and within an hour was placed in the hands of business men. thereby permittng them to answer their eastern mail in time to make either the Mil- waukee, leaving at 6 o'clock, the Northwest ern at 645 p. m., or the Burlington at 7:15 p. m. This departure will work materially for the good of Omaha business men, saving fourteen hours in the receipt of mail and twenty-four hours in the answering. Under the new schedule the Burlington ar- rives on this side of the river about 4:30, allowing time for switching, ete, on th Council Bluffs side. Heretofore the east- ern mall for Omaha has come locally, via Pacific Junction, but with the new order of things the fast mail runs solid into Omaha, and by the time it reaches here Is back stamped, tied into packages and addressed to the carriers of the various routes in the business district, carriers only being re- quired to route the bundles. In addition to the eastern mail, which heretofore was not:delivered until the morning after its ar- rival, carriers also deliver the Union Pacific trapscontinental mail and the mail over the Burlington system eastbound. These tw mails from the west were sent out by ca rier at 4:40 p. m., but the arrival of the easfern mail will hold the carriers ten min uted, permitting them, however, to get out at 4:50 p. m. with three big mails. ut there fs still another surprise in store for! the business men of Omaha. Unl Indjcations are materially at fault, by next Bunday the Burlington will run its west bound fast mail into Omaha at 3 o'clock making the time between Chicago and Omaha in twelve hours, and giving business mep their eastern mail by or 4 o'clock at ‘the outside. There is no intention cn the part of the Burlington to be worsted in :this fight, and the Northwestern will b2 ghvbn the run of its life unless all signs fail. LIVELY Clarkson ascertalned IGHT IN PROSPECT, All the American Rouds Combine Againa: f the Canadian Pacifie. CHICAGO, Nov. f.—Unless the Canadian Pac'fic road changes its attitude toward the linés of the Western Passenger assoclation within a short time it will likely have on its hands one of the biggest fights that it Is éver likely to encounter. At the meet- Ing in New York last week, the Canadian Paeific Insisted that it be given 25 per cent of (all the westbound emigrant business ceming through the port of New York, and destined for points west of St. Paul. The western roads would not acknowledge that it was entitled (o any portion of this bus .ness, but In the Interest of harmony offe 1t 16 per cent. This the Canadlan Pacific refised absolutely and furthermore refused to entertain any proposition looking toward arbitration. ~ The western roads then de- clared they would meet the commissions on westbound emigrant business, which are being paid by the Canadian Pacific, and apply them to Canndian ports, as well as those on the Atlantic seaboard. The regular com- miseion from New York to St. Paul is $3.80 and the Canadian Pacific has been paying §6 on each ticket, The western lines have fivally induced the trunk lines to see the | matter in the same light as they look at | it and the trunk lines and the western | roads wil hereafier stand together on this | proposition. The commissions of the Cana- dian Pacific are now being met by the western roads. The Grand Trunk has also decided that it will take sides with the western roads and make a fight against Canadian Pacific, if that line cannot be iu- duced to give up some of its demands. If the fight once bégins It will be all the American roads against the Canadian Pa- cific, with the Grand Trunk acting as the ally of the American roads. The struggle wiil not be confined to emigrant rates aione, but a strong effort will be made to keep the Canadian Pacific out of all freight busi- ness originating In the western states, Chalrman Caldwell of the Western Pas- senger assoclation today recelved notice from the Minneapolls & St. Louls road that it will, on November 12, cease to be a member of the Western Passenger assoclation. It wlil, however, continue to be a member of the emigrant agreement. No especlal rea- son is glven for the withdrawal, but it is generally surmised that this road, now that I8 no longer under the control of the Re nd, finds it necessary to pull out of the assoclation in der to protect its fnterests In the northwest. The Wisconsin Central, which Is not a member of the assoclation, is free to cut rates at any time it may ele t, and the Minneapoiis & St. Louls, as a mem- ber of the assoctation, would hardly be in a position to meet competition promptly it the Wisconsin Central should see fit to put In & reduced tarifl sheet. The Minneapolis & Bt. Louls In giving its notice of with- drawal says, however, that it bas no inten- tion of taking any on which may moralize rates in any part of the associ territory. g Packers Lose Thelr Caxe. CHICAGO, Nov. 5.—Judge Gros: fered & decislon against the packers today in the case of the “Big Four” packers—Swift Armour, Morris and Hammond—against the | rallroads to recover money alleged to have bee taken from them In excessive rates on meats shipped to the east from Chicago. | Among the roads who are defendants to| the sult are the Philadelphia & Reading, Nickle Plate, Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, Grand Trunk and eight other trunk lnes to the cast. The amounts which the packers seek to recover from the roads ag- gregate about $5,000,000, and are based on | shipments running back through a long period of years, Judge Grosscup practically formal decision in the case, holding that in the absence of national law applicable the ase the packers could mot recover on the grounds that the rates were unreason able. held to his Want & Half Hollday Today. | Yeaterday the freight men employed the several treight houses in the city beg & concerted effort to secure the closing of | freight houses from 12 o'clock to 6| o'clock today In order that employes might bave an opportunity to vote without that | rush that Is usually attendant upon an el tlon.

DIRECTORS RE-ELESTED, Only Two Esceptions, and They Are Friendly to the Old Regime, TOPEKA, Nov. 6.—At the Santa Fe annual stockholders meeting this afternoon the old board of directors were re-elected with the following exceptions P. 1. Bonebrake, pres- Ident of the Central National bank of To- peka, was chosen to succeed L. Severy, and Edward Wilder, treasurer of the company to succeed Alden Speare. Bonebrake and Wilder are mere temporary elections. They will resign immediately, and when the direc- tors have a quorum, which will be at the New York meeting soon, two permanent directors will be chosen, who will be Thomas Osborne, ex-governor of Kansas, and H. Duval of New York, president of the Florida Central & Peninsular railroad. The adjourned meeting of the shareholders this afternoon was without real issue, al- though Heury Wollman put the directors to the trouble of voting down several series of resolutions offered in behalf of the pro- tectives. The first of these commanded the board of directors to report by what auth ity the income bonds of the company were converted into second mortgage bonds and asking how much interest was pald on these bonds and where the money came from This set of resolutions was simply referred to the board of directors. Then Mr. Woll man offered another bunch of directions to the directors about reporting how much money had been paid to any officer of th company, exclusive of salary, since 1889, and for what purpose. Mr. Wollman also wanted to know how much had been paid out as commissions and to whom and what for. These Instructions to the board of directors | were also referred by vote to the board of | directors despite Mr. Wollman's protest. Mr. Wollman next offered the resolutions ewman Eb tried to submit to the previous ceting, telling the board of directors to ort what amount of ‘“so-called” second mortgage bonds were withdrawn from the trustee for specific improvements and how much was used for specific purposes and for what purposes; and what sums of money were disbursed and securities hypothecated within sixty days prior to the appointment of recelvers. These instructions were also turned over to tho board. Then came the election. The majority voted for Edward J. Berwynd of New York, James A. Blair of New York, William I Bull of New York, B. P. Cheney, jr., of Bos ton, Thomas P. Fowler of New York, C. S Glced of Topeka, C. K. Holliday of Topeka, Samuel C. Lawrence of Boston, John A. McCall of New York, George A. Nickerson of Boston, P. 1. Donebrake of Topeka, E. Wilder of Topeka and F. K. Sturgis of New York. The minority voted for Henry Clews and Theodore W. Myres, both of New York. Messrs.

BRANCHRECEIVERSHIPS TERMINATED Jenkins Issues the Order In the Northern Pacific Cases. MILWAUKEE, Nov. b.—Judge Judge Jenkins made an order today terminating the North- | and | ern Paclfic branch line recsiverships authorizing the Northern Pacific receivers to lease the lines and operate them. The so-called “Western committee” will leave Paul tomerrow night in Mr. Payne al car to go over the entire system and ases with the various companies, The leases provide that the receivers are to take possession of the pro pay all expenses and turn over all surplus in earn- ings to the Farmers Loan and Trust com- pany. Judge Jenkins made special Inquiry about the clause providing for the payment of deficencles by the recelvers. William Nelson Cromyell explained to the court that the question of paying a deficlency was matter of small fmportance compared with the benefits to be derived from the leasing of the lines. He sald that, the twenty- two roads constitute nearly “halt of the Northern Pacific system and gave it a third of its business, The main line, he ex- plained, would earn $2,000,000 a year from the business furnished from the branche: and the receivers could well afford to pa a deficlency of $100,000 or $200,000 if it should occur. There were bonds to the amount of $60,000,000 on the branch line he said, on which no interest had been paid for a year or two, and none could be paid in the immediate future, and the re- celvers got the benefit of that investment. i DIED, Nyquist afternoon NYQUIST Funeral of 2:90 Tuesday, Andrew Nov. §, at arr ard § will M. e held at B, Bew E. chureh, Highest of all in Leavening Power.

Emery Caulson, who for | has been employed night watchman by | | the Hammond company, has confessed to arson in starting the fire in the box room Sunday night. The story of the second fire s a peculiar one. Miles Mitchell, who at one time was | @ South Omaha policeman, 1s now employed |as watchman at the Hammond plant. | Mitchell works in the day time. At the | suggestion of Captain Connell he began to work on Caulson as the person who started the fire. When Mitchell entered Caulson’s room yesterday morning, in pack- | ing ho parlance, he went at the fellow | “raw" and accused him of doing the job ‘aulson at first denied the charge, but lly gave in and admitted that he did the jobr in the hope of securing promotion. His statement, as made to Mitchell, was that he wanted to do something to impress the management of the plant that he was on the alert at all times. He first secured a small can of gasoline and went into the | building and poured it over the pile of box- ing boards. He then left the plant, and carrying the empty can for almost a block, thréw it away. He then went back to the same room, and after pouring out some of the oil frem his lantern over the boards and setting a match, ran and turned in an alarm. Charles A. Felch, timekeeper at the plant, questioned Caulson Sunday night about the fire. Caulson told him that that day he had seen a man in the box room changing his clothes and that later another man came and took away the clothes, and he suppose the latter set the fire. Felch told Caulson to | stay about the building and keep a close watch. Later Caulson was found missing and was found not at his own home, but at that of his mother-in-law. This caused sus- picion that Caulson set the fire. Yesterday 1 ng Caulson was taken to Manager Noyes' office, where he denfed hav- ing any knowledge as to how the fire started He was later placed under arrest and in the afternoon was taken to Omaha to the office of County Attorney Kaley. Here he confessed to Felch that he set the fire and at 5 o'clock he pleaded guilty in Justice 's court to arson, having assigned the reasons that have been stated. He is 22 years old, has a wife and two children and has been'a trusted employe. He said that he hoped to get some favor from the man- agers by showing that he discovercd the fire s0 £oon and turned in an alarm. The penalty for arson is from twenty years (n the penitentiary. There is no suspicion that Caulson anything to do_with Friday's fire. The Hammond company expects to have the new beef slaughtering building completed before January 1. L. A, Davis, its architect, is already on the ground, drawing plans for the new building, which will be identical with the old. It will cost about $100,000, Interestea in Today. More interest is manifested in the election in South Omaha this year than for years The corporation managers have made flort to force democrats in their employ | to vote for Majors. Last night a crowd of men working at the stock yards got on horses | and went to Omaha in a body, carrying ban- | ners bearing the names of Majors and Sut- | ton. The majority of these men are demo- crats. Councilman Walters, who is yard- | master at the stock yards and who has re- peatedly received favors at the hands of the democratic party, was one of the mar- | shals in the gang. The county commiissioners took off certain Holcomb men from the list submitted and recommended by the city council. Mayor Johugon sald he knew that certain changes had been made, but denied that he was a party to it. Members of the council all de- nied being a party to the outrage.

The committee appointed to wait on the street car company and request that the line be extended into the Third ward sub- mitted its report, as published in The Bee | one week ago. The company will extend the line at once if the property owners will walve the cost of pavement to the company. A special committee was appointed tc wait upon the county commissioners and ask that body to bear at least a portion of the expenses of opening up Thirtcenth street north of Missouri avenue. The city clerk was instructed to notify the property owners in a dozen different | portions of the city that banks higher than ten feet must be sloped at once, as they are dangerous.

LITTLE CHILDREN. Often Suffer Ter.ibly Through Ignorance. UNKNOWN TO PARENTS. They Parents are Responsible for the Neglect ehich Causes Their Little Ones to Have Such What a common thing it Is to see children, many of them small children, who have blotches, sores and breakings out of various Kinds ° These troubles are commonly at- tributed to some disorder or taint of the blood. Formerly the parents gave sulphur nd molasses, more latterly almost anything of which they may hear, It is a great mistake to think that these children’s troubles arise from diseased blood It Is not true. Their little bodies are not hardened and strong, their digestion is not always good, and especially, in nearly every are their kidneys and urinary organs ak and often Inactive. This is the source of their trouble, and parents will realize it it they only stop to think, How often have you had proofs that your child’s kidneys were weak? If the kidneys are not strong and ac- tive they do not throw the polsons from the blood, and hence these poisons break out In sor And yet it Is so easy to keep their little bodies in good healthy condition. Chii- dren are usually active and playful, and with a little help, even the slightest assistance, they can be kept healthy and their blood pure, There Is a great preparation, which fs the most popular in use today, but which has, for some strange reason, been considered principally good for grown-up people haps this is because It has such unusual ful, it Is so simple, 0 harmless, that even a babe can take it without injurious effects. We refer to Warner's Safe Cure, which Is a purely vegetable preparation, and wholly harmless in every respect. It acts healthily on the principal organs of the body, but esp: lally on the kidneys and urinary organs, and its effects can bo felt within a few hours. Little children who are ailing, who seem out of sorts, who have eruptions, cannot be cured except by going to the source of trouble. Read what one mother says: “At 3 years of age my boy was taken with kidney trouble of the worst form. After using everything I could get that I thought | would benefit him, and receiving no perma- nent relief, I was induced to try Warner's Safe Cure. 1 gave him three bottles of it and he was completely cured. He is now 18 years of age, strong and healthy.—Mrs. D. W. Steele, Mexico, Mo. The above shows conclusively the great efliciency of the remedy for both adults or children. It has no equal.
