{ STILL AFTER POACHER MAN Retail Lumber Dealars Hold Iaterssting Informal Ression. PART OF THE PROCEEDINGS ARE SECRET Letters Arve Received from Alleged Poschers in Which Showing of Good Intentions is Made— Other Aftairs. The morning sesalon of the Retail Lumber Dealers’ msmociation yesterday was an in- formal affair and in the open session noth ing was done excapt to discuss at great length ‘the gubject of ‘“poachers’” and “poaching. The bridge supply house of this city which had come in for a rawbiding at the hands of the members’ Wednesddy manifested & dispositipn tobe goodemda letter was pre- ated {roth the firm fn which ft stated that it had net fetenfionally fajared the business of a retall dealer; that it arrangements could be made it would Itke to become a member of the association and make pro- visions for handling contracts with the county commissloners through the local firms. The asion was long and at times tedious. The matter finally went to a com- mittee Apology is Offer. A letter was read from the Dean Lumber company of Lincoln, one of the firms ac- cused of “peaching,” which stated that the bill of goods rold at South Auburn was sold under a misapprehension of the facts and that as soon as it was learned that the purchaser was no longer in the lumber business the shipments were discontinued Colonel Fahnstock of Minneapolis ad- dressed the convention briefly on the sub ject of insurance, claiming that co-opera tive insurance of lumber yards had reduced | the price in the old lins companies from $1.25 to 50 cents per $1,000 in Minnesota and from $2.45 to 65 cents in Nebraska, cording to figures furnished by dealers Bird Critehfield of Elmwood was added to the auditing committee, vice C. H. Wal- rath, who is absent from the city, and the | committes began the consideration of the reporta af the officers 1. H. Johnson was appojnted to represent the convention in soliciting membership in the association The convention then went {nto executive sesnion for the purpose of discussing affairs which relate to the practical workings of the organization. Behind closed doors the matter of the suppression of the poacher | took on & livelier phase, although there was no division of opinion, such as characterized | the exccutive session last year. Every member participated fn the discussion to a greater or less extent, and it was finally decided to create a defense fund of several tuindred dollars for the purpose of discov- ering and suppressing poaching. It nocn when the executive session ended Afternoon Session. At the opening of the afternoon session William Krotter of Stuart read a paper on “The Retafler and the Side Lines.” Mr Krotter reviewed the condition of the lum- ber business from the time the dealer in this class of goods sold to the consumer all of the material which went into his house, barps and fences until today, when & large part of that material is supplied by dealers in other lines. Telegrams of cougratulation on the state of trade and general conditions weie passed between the Nebraska and Illinois associa- the latter being In session at Chi- The. Chicago response came from Ketridge, a former Nebraska limber- CoH man, now connected with a trade paper in the windy city Then came the sensation of the session M. J. Mitton, A member of the assocla- tion, having a yard at Palmyra, presented charges against A, H. Weir of Lincoln, a member of the association, accusing him of selling goods in the Palmayra territory ageinst the rules of the assoclation. The accused went nto details regarding th . sale and stated that the matter had® been | referred to the board of directors, who re- fused to act in the matter on account of a technicality. The matter was discussed at lergth until the arrival of Mr. Welr, a committes having been sent out to bring him before the body. The Lincoln dealer stocd upon the technicality, but finally con sented to present his case to the board of directors. The report of the auditing committee was 1o the effect that the report of the officers was correct, but it was not permitted to pass without discussion.. This was precipi- tated by C. L. Chaffee of Omaha, who asked regarding the indebtedness of the assocl tion and how much money would remain in the treasury when the debts were paid. He further stated that when the board of direc- tors took charge of the affairs of the or- ganization in 1900 they found that while over §1,200 was reported to be on hand thes had less than $300 (n the treasury available for their work, as the payment of debts im- mediately after the adjournment of the con- vention wiped out the surplus. It then de- veloped that after the pending bills are paid the assoclation will be practically without cash untll the anoual dues of the members for the comiug year are pald. The directors were thereupon instructed to p all debts before the meeting of the associa- tion in 1802, so the balance on hand at that time Would represent the resources of the soclety, Thauks Are Offered.

He was reported by the police to have been missing from his place since February 5, but as a matter | of fact, so he declares, he has been in | | his shop and in his living apartments every | | day. He has been doing work during this | time In various residences of the city. | Mr. Sundean says the story of his dis- | appearance was started by a business com- petitor, who sought to injure him in his trade | Frequent Coughing | inflames the lungs.

A general misunderstanding as Lo the standpoint from which it was to be taken up somewhat changed the Intended program, those who bad written papers having prepared them on the color question In its ethical relation to the admission of the colored clubs to the general federation. In consequence, when the leader stated the subject the majorlty found themselves unprepared to participats in & philosophical discussion of it. A brave attempt was made, however, but in the main it proved a discussion of the duty of the white woman to her colored sister. Thero was a wide varlety of opinions expressed and the beautiful principle of woman's duty to woman, regardless of the color of her skin, shared equally in approval with the papers based on the practical experience of those who had lived in the south. One paper was especially strong and practical, being the opinion of a New England woman who wrote from the experience of a long resi- dence and work among the negroes. Perhaps the most striking theory of the afternoon was advanced by a physician which was (o (he effect that future cen- | turies will evolve a new and the real Amer- fean tace, which will be an amalgamation of the white with the negro and other weaker races that now dwell on this con- tinent. She believes the race problem will solve itself. The present agitation, she thinks, being premature, will be Ineffec- tve. The white race having developed mentally at its physical expense requires the bone and sinew of the colored race (o perpetuate it, and the present existing con- ditions will adjust themselves to meet the requirements of the future. There was a large attendance at Wednes- day's meeting of the Woman's Christian Temperance union, and several matters of unusual importance came up for adjust- ment. Several letters were presented ex- pressing approval of the course recently pursued by the union in the case of Miss Birdle Moore A letter was read from & woman in South Omaha calling the uplon’s attention to the fact that a large number of the employes of the packlng houses and other fnstitutions of | many of them sympathizers with the cru (405 Kansas avenue MRS. in Topska Court to An of Destroying Property.

The eomplainant was W. F. Lytle, proprietor of the Senate saloon, which Mrs. Nation and her crusaders wrecked last week. The room was crowded with visitors ders. The case was finally postponed till Monday next. When court opened Mrs. Nation was not to be found. Her lawyer. J. M. Dumenil was rather excited, but assured the court that his cllent would be on hand very soon Judge McCabe said he was ready to take up the case and that it must proceed. Rev. F. W. Emerson volunteered the information that Mra. Nation had gone out to dinner and would be back soon. Assistant County Attorney Jamison, who has charge of the prosecution, announced that he would wait A few moments and in the meantime would call bis witnesses, Mike Kelly, “Sheep" Lytle, Harry Jackson, Ben Mulhollend and orge Stambaugh.

Men who did not go to these places for this accommodation found diff culty in getting their money after banking bours. This condition was emphasized with the appeal that organized women might in- terest themselves in it and endeavor to bet- ter It. The union appointed & committee, consisting of Mrs. E. B. Towle of South Omaha, Mrs. George Tilden and such other, as they should appoint, to investigate the matter and see what could be done either by an effort to bring about a different system of paying the men; or, If this cannot be ac complished, to provide some other sclution The matter is to be taken up at once It was also decided to send a circular let ter to the legisiators at Lincoln asking them to vote against a bill now before the legislature providing that applicants for saloon license shall be compelled, in case of appeal from the decision of the Fire and Police Commissioners to the district court to put up a bond of $1,000 A committee from the department of political and social science of the Woman's club, consisting of Mrs. H.
