SAVAGEDECREES (E Orders His Office I‘m to Withhold State | News from Papers. ] _GOVERNOR DISPLEASED AT PUBLICITY Order First Goes Into Effect Regard. & Plea for Parole Said to Be General and Absolute (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN,, Feb. 22.—(8pectal.)—Governor Bavage has decreed that hereafter no mem- ber of his executive office force shall give to the newspapers any information regard- ng the offictal business of his department. \No explanation 1is vouchsafed for the , promulgation of this ‘nlar, nor has any notice been given to the representatives of the newspapers, that the courtesies of the office have been dlscontinued. But that such an order s in effect is not denied. The governor insists that he has been grossly mistreated and misrepresented by the press in general and he propeses to re- tallate by withholding In the future all information regarding the transaction of business in his office. He does not say that he will give out no news himself, but the probibition s understood to be absolute so far as his clerical force is concerned, and to extend against all daily newspapers that have representatives at the capitol. s unusual action on the part of the governor was prompted by the newspaper account on the removal of Deputy Ofl In- epector Frank Alderman of the third con- gressional district. It is agserted in some of the reports that a successor to Mr. Al- derman was appointed for purely political reasons, the chiet infiuence in the case being exerted by Treasurer Stuefer. In the executive department it was announced that Mr. Alderman had resigned, the impression belng given that the act was voluntary on his dart. The governor made no effort to conceal his anger when the reports were brought to his attention. He declared with em- phasis that too much mews was being given /to the newspapers and he immediately took steps to create a rigld censorship. South Omaha Parole Case. Private Secretary Clancy this afternoon declined to deny the promulgation of thg order. When questioned he referred the reporters to the governor, who was not at that time in his office. Mr. Clancy also pleaded ignorance when questioned regard- ing & hearing on an application for the parole of a penitentiary convict this morn- ing. The application was made by J. H. Van ‘Dusen of South Omaha. Mr. Clancy aid not know whether or not Mr Van Dusen had been In the office, and said furthermore that he probably would not know. Chlet Clerk Husted was equally re- ticent, and no information could be gisaned from Recorder J. C. F. McKesson, who is known by the title of confidential secretary to the governor. Entertains Former Governors. Four former chief executives of the state were guests of Governor and Mrs. Bavage at the executive mansion this afternoon. They were Robert W. Furnas, John M. Thayer, Sllas A. Holcomb and ‘William A. Poynter. All former governors were Ihvited, but becauss of previous en- gagements or business of a pressing nature all but the four respectfully declined. ‘The event was planned by Mr. and Mrs. Savage, in keeping with the custom in- sugurated by Governor Dietrich a year ago. The .suggestioh was made at that time that in the future the day of the com- ‘memoration of the birth of George Wash- ington be made the occasion for the gath- ering of all former occupants of the ex- ecutive chalr. The guests sat down to dinner ai 1:30 and after the courses had been served sev- eral hours were passed social conver- wation and discussion of official affairs. Messages of regrets were read from the absentees. Bx-Governor Dawes is In Cuba and could not leave his business. Lorenzo Crounse started several days ago for Flor- ida. James E. Boyd is in California and Alblnus Nance is in Chicago. Senator Dietrich wrote that he was detalaed at Catskill because of the illness of his daughter. No reply was recelved from former Governor Garber and it was con- cluded that his invitation miscarried. Nearly all state, county and city offices remained closed throughout the day in memory of George Washington. Governor Savage was at his office a few hours this morning attending to business of a minor importance, but the department was closed during the afternoon. upreme Court Oases. of m is to be called for hear- in_the Lelgh This st Marel 40 supreme urt , Knox county; Pecha against u(nln‘.% n{'ym g ot H al ns| rm)] N Hill ‘against McGinnis, Lincoln; inst Boucey, Lancaster; Fraa- man against Fraaman, Buffalo; Saussay ;l inst Lnnp Brewing Company. ‘l i MeDermot againat -nl:)yo.

DIVERSION FOR CONVENTION Y M 0 A Deleglul Witness Basket Ball Oontest.

Many of the speak- ers are most noted orators of the west. Each d of the convention one of tha churches of the city furnishes meals to the delegates at the fraternal hall. The champlonship game of basket ball of the e was played this afternoon at the York auditorium before a large audi- ence. The large sta was of sufficlent slze to make a good court.

H. gwick, judge of the supreme court then addressed the meeting. E. B. Andrews’ talk on “Christian Citizen- ship” was one of the best of the many good addresses of the convention. The first part of last evening's session of the convenjlon was in charge of George B. McDill, international rallroad secretary. He conducted a “gospel train.”” Mr. MeDill spoke briefly of the place railroad men have in the Young Men's Christian asso- clation work. He said in part: “The importance of transportation facill- ties of today make the rallroad man an im- portant factor in our soclal fabric. The Rallroad Young Men's Christian association proposed to train railroad men for more efficient service and higher character. The day has passed when a railroad company will employ a man of dissipation.” Following Mr. McDill & number of rail- road men spoke briefly, representing differ- y to the running ef beginning with the em- ployes' department up through the train crews to the general manager's office. The Omaha quartet rendered two selections, A. C. Harte of Moblle, Ala., spoke on “Twentleth Century Vision.” At the close of the address the Omaha quartet sang. Two Deaths at Plattsmouth.

HOLDS MANY FAMILY SECRETS Sir George Lewis Closets More So- clety Skeletons Than Any Other Englishman, (Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Feb. 22.—(New York World Ca- blegram—S8pecial Telegram.)—Sif George Lewls, the famous attorney of Ely Place, is the depository of more family secrets of the aristocracy of England than any other living man. His experiences, which can never be written, would make a collection of romances of family ckeletons that would stir up English society to its foundations. Sir Georgs Lewls Is exceedingly clever, versed in every kind of legal finesse, with an unequalled knowledge of the .dark side of life, but a high reputation for fair deal- ing and public spirit. Queen Alexandra this week visited J. 8. Sargent's studio, where Jeanne Langtry, Lily's only child, was presented to her. Miss Langtry, though chaperoned by some of the most influential persons in London soclety, had falled to get a presentation. Queen Victoria struck her name off the list of the last drawingroom she ever held. Sargent is painting some wonderful por- traits of beauties for the next academy. The queen herself desires to be a subject of his brush. Mrs. Patrick Campbell's heart-breaking experiences with her pet dog in American hotels is nothing to the tragedy awaiting her arrival in England. Under a new re lation of the British Board of Agriculture her treasure will be isolated from her for six months. The whole female peerage is up in arms agaipst the ordinance, but the Board of Agriculture is impervious to their appeals. CAUSES POLITICAL UPHEAVAL Lord Rosebery's Ill Temper a: Judgment Strengthen Camp- bell-Bannerman. (Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Feb. 22.—(New York World Ci blegram.—Speclal Telegram.)—Lord Rose- bery's bad temper and bad judgment in declaring himself separated from the Ib- eral party have greatly strengthened Sir Heary Campbell-Bannerman’s position as leader of the liberal party. Bannerman now has with him the whole official or- ganization and nine-tenths of the rank and file. A. H. Asquith, Earl Gray, Sir Henry Fowler and other liberal impe sts, whose recent political conduct Is thought to have been inspired by desperate haste to get back into office, are in a painful quandary. The Irish party members point with gratification to the fact that Bannerman and Rosebery could differ about war with- out doing any harm, but the instant home rule became the cause of quaryel a polit- ical earthquake followed. The general belief is that Rosebery will inevitably driven into the tory ranks or will disapps —_— e Always have a bottle or two of Cook' Imperial Extra Dry Champagne in your ice chest; then you will always be ready for callers.

Mrs. Eleanor Dutcher Key of Omaha, it appears, was given a contract two years ago to furnish a recognition pin.
