8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:: WEDNESDAY, ULY 10, 1895. e e = SLASHES THE FREIGHT RATES Union Pacific Invites Other Roads to Mect Its Cut, NEW RATES EFFECTIVE NEXT TUESDAY Redluction of from Ono-Fourth to One. Half Made in the Rate of West Bound Shipments from the Missouri River. Realizing the results which attach to the occupancy of territory by right its own, the Unlon Pacific, following cut the aggressive policy which it has recently erected, will, on July 16, reduce rates from the Migsourl river to Montana and Idaho com- mon points, and bring that of the country in closer touch than it has ever been with Missouri river gateways, When the Union Pacific put into effect the present rates Utah common points, the western railroad world wondered at the bold ness of the step, and it was some time be- fore competitors were able to realize the exact lmport of the situation. The rates were met, however, and adjustment was made which had a tendency to even lower the rates promulgated by the Unfon Pacific. But in the conference which ensued upén the Union Pacific basis the raiiroads of thé west fell into line and the ‘“overland” basts as erected prevailed, with minor medi- fleations to sult certain conditions that have been In existence ever since a rallroad opened up the northwest and brought it into touch with the east. COMMENCED TO GRIND THE KNIVES. For some time past, really ever since the Utah rates went Into effect on the ten classes, the traffic officials of the Unlon Pacific felt that their position could not be considered certain until rates in the whole northwes: touched by thelr company had been brought down to a common basis, and they pro ceeded to equalize the tariffs on the ten classes. It was hard work, for modifying conditions which had an fmportant bearing on the general basls decided upon constantly recurred in check!ng over the new rates Finally, however, a line of reductions was reached and an order was given to place in effect the new tariff, which came fro printers vesterday and which will on July 16 become effective, six days' notice of re- duction being nec y for the Interstate Commerce commission In accordance with the tariff thus pre- pared, rates on the date above mentioned, from the Missourl river to points in Idaho, Pocatello, east, south and north, and points In Montana gouth of Dillon will be as follows R R ) $1.85 $1.70 $1.60 $1.40 $1.20 $1.10 as against present 1 2 12.50 $2.15 91 5 Points west of Pocatello, to and including Huntington, Ore., the rates grade until the following maximum figures are me e T R £2.40 as against: 1 & b 3 a westbound section to some a e 00 $1.70 $1.55 $1.55 $1.10 $1.00 e Soc 2 0 $1.6) 81 CUT IN THE Commodity rates follow the classes in the general reduction, which brings the Missouri river Into closer proximity tha’ ever before with the trade of the greater northwest. The first list as seen to Pocatello, east, north and gouth, show the following: Apples and cide straight or in mixed car lots, $1.04, against $1.2: Beer, in wood or gliss, 30,000 pounds mini- mum, 75 ceuts, as agiinst the present rate of §1.10, Brick, paving, pressed or common, 54 cents, against 62 cents.

Apples and .52, against $1.60. 96 cents, against-$1.60. against $1.60. Syrup, 90 cents, against $1.60. In talking to Assistant General Frelght Agent Wood of the Union Pacific as to the reason for the reduction, he said it was done to put the territory of the Union Pacific upon equality with the adjacent territory. Here- tofore the Union Pacific had been maintaining higher rates to Montana and Oregon than to Intermediate points, and it was for the purpose of making all rates equal, distance condldered, that the changes were decided upon. Not only will the packers of South Omaha, the syrup manu‘acturers of Omaha, but the fron men and all classes of wholesalers be af- fected by this lining down of rates, and will bring them in consequence in closer com- munion with the merchants of the territory thus vitally affected KEPT THE RAILROADS BUSY, Heavy Passonges Traflic Required the Run- ning ot Many Extra Tralos. General Passenger Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific stated yesterday that plac- ing the most conservative estimato upon the movement of teachers to Denver his com- pany had transported to the Colorado capi- tal 5,000 ons through the Kansas City and Omaha gateways. Quite a number of Unlon Pacific specials were run via Grand Island from the south on account of numer ous washouts aloug the Kansas Pacl Already the tide of travel is turning eastward and many tourists who went west by other routes are returning over the Unlon Pacific and Burlington. The move- ment, however, of these people eastbound does mot entail so large an equipment and it Is expected that regular trains will take care of easthound travel. General Passenger Agent Franels of the Burlington gave The Bee man a list of the speclal trains handled by his company since July 5 and placed the number of teachers and others hauled to Den- ver at 3,000. “Our business was very satisfactory,” said Mr. Francls, “and was very reminiscent of World's fair days. The Christian Endeavor people are now moving oastward, then come the Knights Templar and the Grand Army of the Republic, which =will bring us to September, so that July and August will be busy months for the rail- roads.” A TR SR The Pursuit of Happiness.

Forty-three deputy assessors have been wondering why they have not recelved war- rants in paymen of their labors in assessing property in Douglas county during May and June. Thelr principals were paid a total of $2,300, but not a cent was voted by the board to pay the deputies. The county commissioners have discovered what may prove a serious flaw in the claims which the deputy assessors are setting up as a basis for their demand to be pald gome of the county’s money. The board has been bothered annually to de- termine how near the assessors come to earn- {ng the money represented by their bills. These bills increase from year to year, while at the same time the annual valuation of property in Douglas county been growing While the ehortage on valuations this year reached several millions, it wus found that the bills of the assessors were $1.000 in ex- cess of those for 1894 s causad even a closer scrutiny of the bills than usual and several commissioners express the view that it may be necessary to compel the deputies to prove that they actually did the work for which they charge. The bills of the deputies for this year amount to $7,622.60. It has been discovered that aside from the deputies in the First and Fourth wards and in South Omaha, only a few have ever qualified, or if they have, no record has been left with the county clerk, nor has he administered an oath to these men. It is understood that the manner in which the assessors will try and get around this defect will be to claim that they had the right to administer the oath to their deputles. Several years ago the board had this legal difficulty before it and in the opinion of Judg it is something of a question assessors who did not comply with are entitled to their p This affects at least $5,000 of these claims. From the records It appears that case will the board be called on this pay as large a family for making assessments 18" was the case last year, when four in the Carpenter family, father, wife, daughter and son, asked pay. This year three in one family is the highest number. Neither has any case yet been discovered thus far like that which Commissioner Jenkins located, where the wife asked pay and it was shown in court that she had been all the time work- ing as a k in a store. These points are being overhauled, however. ———— When Traveling, Whether on pleasure bent, or business, take on trip a bottle of Syrup of Figs, as it acts most pleasantly and effectually on the kidneys., liver and bowels, preventing fevers, headaches and other forms of sickne For sale in 50c and $1 bottles by all leading dru Manufactured by the California Fig only — Ladies, If you have the rheumatism or neuralgla, any kidney or uterine trouble, are emaciated or e superfluous flesh and your doctor orders baths, before going to the expense of a trip, try our baths.

After two hours' consideration of ap- plications some of the commissioners sub- mitted lists of their own, which they clung to with loyalty. It was finally declded by a vote of 3 to 2, to allow Chiet of Police White to select the names of the fifteen men and report the result to the board this af- ternoon at 4 o'clock, when another special session will be held to decide the matter and elther accept or refect the chief's selection. Strickler and Smith voted in the negative. It is probable that a captain of police will be appointed this afternoon to fill the va- ne; which has existed for some time The appointment of a sergeant is also sald to be under consideration. One of.the commissioners sald yesterday that no more dismissals would be made for awhile and that several men were now on probation. Chiet White said last night that he would make up a list from the men whom he had picked out as the best during the examina- tion, As each applicant was examined he made notations of his general makeup and the inteliigence displayed, and he will make his list of those whom he judged ranked highest in these regards. The men's past histery will not be considered, for the simple reason that the chief has not been in the city to know their past histories. The I'st will contain seventeen names. In addition to the fifteen men who were recently dis- charged there are two othel who left the force, thus leaving it seventeen men short of the number that was employed a year ago It is possible that seventeen new appoint- ments may be made to bring the force up to ita former number. It is not .understood that the list to be submitted by the chief will be absolutely binding on the board, but it will aid in un- tangling a_very awkward snarl, in which the members found themselves yesterday. Bach commissioner had his own list prepared, and as a result they were unable to agree on the fifteen needed. As Chief White's list will be prepared without favoritism arising from past acquaintance or knowledge of the men, it will serve as a guide to the com- missioners in their search for an avenue along which all can travel. STRICKLER AN OPINIUN Other Lawrers Do Not Agree with Bim the Chief of Police Question. 0. Strickler of the Board of Fire and Po- lice commissioners ‘nas been quoted as saying that any attorney desiring to procure the re- lease of a prisoncr arrested at the instance of Chief White could accomplish this resu't successfully by a writ of habeas corpus. Mr. Strickler declares that the interview sub- stantially represents his opinion. “I am on record,” he said, “on this matter, for I ex- pressed practically the same opinion when 1 voted against the election of Chief White. I was convinced that Mr. White was weli qualified for the position. I regard®him as an experienced, competent and hionest official and now that' he has been elected by the Board of Fire and Police Comunissioners 1 be- lieve that every citizen should give him all possible support. But I voted against him purely on account of the legal question in- volved. 1 believe that his election was il- legal and have had no reason to change my opinion, I have submitted the question to some of the best lawyers in the city and they assure me that the law is not susceptible of two interpretations, and that every police of- ficer must be an elector of Nebraska. I base my opinion on the law, entirely independ; of the anti-Pinkerton ' law, for th an amendment made to the charter by the last legislature which plainly declares that no chief of police can be legally elected un- less he is an elector of the state.” It appears that Mr. Strickler, who is not the only lawyer on the commission, is the member who holds_this opinion. ‘It's simply absurd for Mr. Strickler to talk about the amendments to the charter passed by the last legislature,” said one of the police commissioners. *The bill that em- bodied the charter amendments was vetoed by the governor after the legislature had adjourned and_therefore is as dead as a door nail. The charter as it stands the commission discretion in the s ion of a chief of police just as it d choice of a chief of the fire depart- ment. We have exercised that discretion to the best interest of the community and we feel confident that our action wiil stand the test of the courts as well as it has met the approval of all citizens who honestly desire to see a man at the head of the police who is not mixed up with the political and relig- fous feuds that have so demoralized the force, Another thing, Chief White is head and shoulders above any man who has ever done police duty in this town and he is showing it already in making the men toe the mark.” COUNTY READY TO BEGIN WORE Only Waiting for the Location of Street Rallway Line, The county commissioners are simply waiting for the word from the Omaha Street Railway company, Judge Stenberg says, in order to proceed with the grading of the road to the fair grounds. “As I under- stand it," Mr. Stenberg remarked yester- day, “if 'the company indicates to us that it will' build out on Leavenworth street we will begin grading. If it takes the Center street route we will grade from Center street west to the fair ground gates. It is our inten- tion to do that, anywa The total cost would hardly exceed $2,000, and & think the city and county contracts should be let to- gether. The county has now four graders ‘n operation in various parts of the county throwing up roads. We have already buiit some fifty miles of road this season. the Did You Co n Ohio?

When Sherifts left /Ohicago Monday night he noticed a couple of young fellows in the car who were anxious to form hls acquaintance. They did not get along very well until they were nearing Omaha the next morning, when Jack- son sat down in the same seat with Sher- Iffs, and, after some general conversation, showed fiim a pocketknife and asked him to open it. Sheriffs made the attempt, but was unable to move the blade. Jackson then ex- plained that a secret spring was conceaied In the back of the knife, which, when pressed, allowed the blade to open easily. Soon after this explanation of the trick, Thomas ap- proached the couple and asked for a chew of tobacco and Jackson handed up his p.ug. Then Thomas asked for a_knife and the trick knife was handed him. He tried to open it and failed. This caused a laugn and some talk which led to the proffer of a wager that Thomas could not open the knife. He wanted to bet that he could open it and flashed a roll as big as his arm and wanted to bet all kinds of money. Jackson had but $10 and was willing to bet that sum. Thomas 1d not bet so smair an amount and wanted to put up $100 more. Didn't Sheriffs want a siice of the bet? It looked like a cinch and he finally decided he would risk $5 on the proposition. It took a good deal of coaxing to induce Thomas to make so small a bet, but he reluctantly put up $5 against the syn- dicate bet of Jackson and Sheriffs and after some fumbling opencd the knife, declared the money his and walked aw Jackson was of course very much put out by his loss and declared that the $10 was cvery cent he had in the world, but that he had “rich relatives in Chicago and would at onco telegraph them and get money and would return Sheriffs the $5 he had put into the pot. The train had reached the Union depot by this time. Thomas had disappeared and Jackson led Sheriffs to a seat In the wait- ing room and asked him to stay there thirty minutes while he went and telegraphed for the money. Sheriffs did not wait thirty sec- onds, but, as soon as Jackson had left he told his story to Officer Fieming. The officer started out at once with Sheriffs and after a chase succeeded in locating Jackson and Thomas at Seventh and Pierce streets. The young fellows were arrested and taken to th city jail. Thomas' big roll panned out $27 in good money and a hat full of confederate bills. The men were charged with swin- dling and will be held for trial. Sherlffs is an employe of the Milwaukee road at Milwaukee. He is a bright young fellow and seemed rather put out to think he had been played for a sucker. His chagrin is tempered by his part in the capture of the swindlers and he will remain here to prose- cute them. —— SISTERS OUT ON A LONG TRAMP Traveled All the Way from Arkansas to Live wiith an Uncle, Bertha and Myrtle Michacls are twin sisters in adversity who arrived in Omaha y terday from Arkansas. The girls are orphans. They formerly Wved on a farm near Nebo, Ark. Their father died several years ago and their mother died last October, leav- ing them among strangers and penniless. They pluckily went, to work and since their mother's death have been employed doing the work of farm laborers in the fields, plowing and hauling’ wood. Some weeks ago the girls received a letter from an uncle who lives on a farm near Ponca, Neb. He wrote them that he was a poor man, but If they could reach his place he weuid give them a home and send them to school. They immediately started, walking a distance of 200 miles to Fort Smith, from which place they were furnished transporta- tion to Omaha. The girls applied to the police for help and were placed in charge of Matron Cummings. They were ragged and dust-covered from their long travel. An effort will be made to secure them transportation to Ponca. ———— Weakness is the symptom, Impoverished blood the cause, Hood's Sarsaparilla the cure. It makes the weak strong. — - Waiting for Surpy County to Move. “The completion of the preparations for the laying out of the roadway and boulevard from Omaha to Fort Crogk depends upon the action of the committee having the mat- ter in charge,” said Commissioner Stenberg. The commissioners are waiting for the con mittee to secure the right-of-way and are willing to the grading when this Is se- cured. There appears to be two or three parties in Sarpy county who refuse to let their land go without a valuable considera- tion, and, according to the most reliable in- formation’ oLtainable, a majority of the Sarpy county commission oppose voting any Sarpy funds in ail of opening the road.” oo St Dinner to Al Coppnger.
