TRUST OF KING PRODUCTION Railroader Says it Beats Out ths Oombine of Packers, LION'S SHARE OF PROFITS TO FARMERS Bigh Prices for Meet on the Turns Golden Harvest Into ets of Stock R and Feede on Hoof cha wers “It these people who talk about the beef trust would look into the real facts they would ascertain a condition of affairs that would demoralize their random state- ments,”” sald a prominent traffic official. “Talk about your beef trust; why, it is nothing compared with the trust formed by ‘King Production.’ All the ranters have o advance about the beef trust is the high prices that obtain. True, they do, but 1 can show you that the packers are not making a cent more than they did five years ago, and If that is the case, where does the trust come in? “Last Friday a man brought into South Omaba fifty head of steers, welghing about 1,600 pounds each as they stood. For those steers he got 7 cents a pound on the hoof, & total average of $113.75 for each animal Marvelous, {sn't {t—but nevertheless true. Now, just explain to me how the packers are making so much money off beef that costs them 7 cents a pound on the hoof, even If their fancy steaks do sell at retali for 26 cents a- pound. Think of what a small proportion of that 1,600 pounds is left to be actual beef for sale. Hide, hoofs, much of the legs, head and most of the carcass—all is trimmed off, leaving a com- parative few pounds of steak out of an animal which cost $113.75 “The whole trouble is simply that the demand far exceeds the supply; that con- sumption {s exceeding productton just now by a margin almost unheard of before this time. Searclity of Beef Cattle. “Notice this fact In proof. I have re- eently been out over the country. I con- trol the trafic of many hundreds of miles of a rallroad which laps the best section of the middle West. 1 want to say that there are not 100 carloads of fat beet cattle to be found In all that territory we tap, mot 100 carloads in all those hundreds of thousands of square miles. Don't you see bow valuable the few must be? The farm- »rs are simply colning money, especially those lucky enough to have a few head of cattle. A man came into South Omaha last week with one carload of steers. He went away with $1,900 in cash, that sum representing the sale price of that single carload. And yet they howl about the beet trust aud the packers reaping rich re- wards. They are making not a cent more now than when they were buying cattle at # cents a pound on the hoof. t is almost as bad with hogs. Send put for a thousand hogs now. What do you get? A bunch of 6-month-old shoats. There are scarcely any big hogs to be had. Profits More Than Cover Feed. “It may be sald that the high price of feed more than offsets for him the high price the farmer gets for his stock from the packers, but that is not true. He has B big margin left over. Let me cite a case in point. A farmer friend of mine had a bunch of hogs last fall and, becoming ap- palled at the heavenward trend of feed prices, he tried to sell them. He offered the bunch for $450, but could find no takers At the price. Then he spunked up, deter- mined tc take a risk and began feeding them up. All winter he did this, with feed at 65 cents a bushel. A week ago he sold the bunch at a price which cleared him $€26 over and above all expenses of the winter, feed and all. Thus his profits plone were more than what he asked for the hogs in the fall. That shows how the tarmers can laugh at expensive feed Notes from Army Headquarters. First Lieutenant Laurence A. Curtls of the Twenty-second Infantry has been or- flered from Fort Robinson to join his regi- ment at Fort Crook. Dr, Albert Fensch, civil service clerk in the headquarters of the Liepurtment of the sour!, has returned from a two months' acation spent in southern California Colonel Forrest H.

Increase to The strike of the brick haulers has been compligated by a demand from the brick makerd for an increase in wages and what promised to be only slight trouble, in the opinlon of some of the contraciers, takes on a more serious phase. There were some of the manufacturers of brick willing to concede the demands of the haulers, but others atood out for fear the brickmakers would follow in the wake of the drivers. with yards at Second and Dorcas streets signed the ecale of the haulers and fe the only company now delivering brick. This company thought its troubles over when the demand of the brickmakers came as a clap of thunder from a clear sky to them and work was suspended at its yards y terday pending a settlement of the trou- ble. A member of one of the firms inter- tested sald “Were it not for tbhe demand of the brickmakers, the strike of the haulers would probably be over. There were but few of us who were standing out against this demand, and the only reason we stood out was because we feared a demand from the brickmakers. This demand has now come. It contemplates an in.vease in wages of from 10 to 25 per cent; that s, om 25 to 75 cents a day to each employe, None of the manufacturers have conceded the demand at this time and there is no telling what the result will be. We will hold a conference with the men tomorrow and we may arrive at some compromise.’ The effect of the strike is felt at several places in Omaha where work is in progress. The workmen have suspended operatfons on the Barnard flats at Park avenue and Leavenworth streets and several small jobs are waiting for materfal. Within a few days all work will be practically sus- pended unless the strike Is settled, as by this evening the brick on the grounds will be practically exhausted. NAOMI FERGUSON’S Company Which Advanced to Her Father Loses in MONEY Court. Judge Fawcett has overruled the motion of the Conservative Loan and Trust com- pany to compel Frank Crawford and the city of Omaha to show cause why the eity should not pay to the loan compamy a judg- ment of $1,250 secured by Naomi Fergu- son Naomli is the daughter of Charles Fergu- son, a constable of Omaha, who ahsented himself from the city suddenly some months ago. It is related that the girl was injured by a fall on a defective sldewalk and that when the judgment was secured her father assigned it to the Conservative company and epent the money on himself. In mak- ing the assignment he signed himself as her father and next friend, not as guardian for his bond had not been approved and this latter circumstance is one of the points of the sult. After his departure from the city Attorney Crawford was appointed guar- dian” and seived notice on the city not to pay the judgment to the loan company con- tending that Ferguson had no power to make the assignment until his bond as guardian had been approved and for the further reason that he had obtained ne or- der of court before making the assignment. Judge Fawcett dismissed the cause, but without prejudice in order that the loam company may bring proceedings in equity. Her Son's Life Saved by Chamberiain's Colie, Cholera and Diarrhoen Remedy. “A neighbor ran in with a bottle of Chamberlain’s Colle, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy when my son was suffering with severe cramps and was given up as beyond hope by my regular physiclan, who stands high In his profession.

Mr, Ericksen came to Omaba about 1866 and soon after that, went to work in the Union Pacific rallroad #hops. He first worked in the brass folndry and later was employed as watchman at the Cass street crossing of the road. He was {1l for some time, but confined to the house only three weeks.

TWO0 NEW OVERLAND TRAINS They May Be Nece:;r;w Handle Greatly J Increased Traffio. PROBABLY WILL BE PUT ON IN MAY Steel Work New Shop Now Ready and Union Pacift Walls Roof — General Raln in State. for At present three long Northwestern- Union Pacific through trains from Chicago west roll through Omaha every day, pass- Ing three similar ones on the return trip eastward. Information that leaked out thia morning 1s to the effect that this subsan- tlal service is to be Increased by tha addi- tion of another big train a day each way. Threo years ago it was not Imagined that any more service would be necessary on this carry for decades. The trio of dally transcontinental trains, in addition to all the local ones, were regarded as com prising the most efficient and sufficie service anywhere in he west. The enor- mous Increase of tourist travel, however, which has come suddenly in the last few years, with the betterment of the financial conditions in this country, has necesal- tated a revision of this opinion. Last year 50,000 people went to Colorado alone. They were mostly from the far east. Investigations by eastern agents of the raflroads during the winter have shown that this will be doubled this summer. It was hard enough to handle them last yea now it will be worse than ever without ad- ditional trains. Enlarging the present considered, but that appears impossible. They are now carrying ten to ffteen coaches each and are having trouble keep- ing the schedule. As a matter of fact they are not keeping it, and that is one imme- dlate reason for the urging of the new trains Nos. 3 and 5, averaging twelve cars or 8o, are simply unable to make up time when late, because of their weight. The vew train will relieve them and also pro- vide for a heavy rush of trafic this sum- mer. tralns was con- Date of Change. 1t {s planned to get this new service on during May, if at all, so as to be 'ready for the opening of the summer tourist rates on June 1. The scheme is to have the traln run in between Nos. 3 and 5 west, and between Nos. 4 and 6, east. No. 5 leaves Chicago at 10 a. m., No. 3 at 1 p. m. The new one will leave at 4 p. m., reaching Omaha at 6 p. m. and Denver at 9 p. m. the next day. The eastbound one will leave Denver at 7 a. m., reaching Omaba at 10 p. m. the same day and Chi- cago at 12 noon the following day. Both will be fast through trains, not local. The chair car and sleeper for Denver which are now carried on No. 3 to Jules- burg and then cut out and run down on the branch will be carrled on the new westbound train. In other words, the new trains will be Denver-Chicago affairs. The second great step in the construction of the new Union Pacific shop Is now prac- tically finished. The last of the steel work has been erected and now, with founda- tions and framework dome, the walls and roof are to come before the equipment is finally inetulled and the men set to work in the huge structure. Rain Throughout the State. Three travellng passenger agents for Omaha rallroads who make their headquar- ters in this city covered Nebraska pretty thoroughly last week and came into the city yesterday with the latest rain and crop news from the different sections they vis- ited. Herbert Howell of the Chicago, Mil- waukee & St. Paul road was in the North Platte country. Sald he: “The rain was everything we wanted in the north half of the state. People do not realize what an immenee fall it was nor what it means to Nebraska, coming when it did. All the North Platte country had its thirst slaked entirely.” Samuel North of the Illinofs Central was down In southeastern Nebraska, about Te- cumseh, Falls City, Nebrasea City and other portlons of the district. “Southeast Nebraska is not asking for anything better than it recefved late last week.” sald Mr. North. “It was general down there, and it was plenty.” “This talk about the South Platte dis- trict not getting much rain is a mistake,” sald John Mellen of the Chicago & North- western rallway. “I came In across all that western tier of countles Saturday, and from Gosper county in to the capital city there were big puddles still standing around in depressions. The rain was big in the South Platte.” European tourists and others destined to eastern points will find the low rates ap- plying over the Nickel Plate Road to New York, New England and other eastern des- tinations, specially attractive. The east- ern terminals via this line are only from three to ten minutes from all ocean steam- ship docks, and the service afforded is first class. Three rains dally from Chi- cago.

R MUNICIPALITY CAN RELEVY CURBING TAX District Court is Reversed by Higher Tribunal —Affects $150,000 Special Taxes. Important Ruling by The State Supreme court has modified the decree of the district court of Douglas county In the action brought by William C. Orr and others to enjoin the collection of special assessments levied by the city to cover a part of the cost of paving and curbing Thirty-sixth street from Cuming to Callornia street In paving district number | 1t is sald that this means, directly and indirectly, a saving to the city of $150,000. The district court had held that the city | had no jurisdiction to order the curbing and hence had no power to make assessments to pay the cost of the same. The supreme | court held that the city had jurisdiction and may proceed to relevy the curbing taxes against the plaintifts’ property. | The city charter provides that curbing shall not be ordered on any street not or- dered paved unless a majority of the owners of abutting property shall petition for the curbing. In this case there had been no pe- tition for curbing. Ruling of vistriet Court. The paving had been ordered prior to the ordering of the curbing, but the district court held that the ordinance ordering the paving was vold for want of jurisdiction, as no petition for the paving had been filed prior to the passage of the ordinance or- dering the paving. The court therefore concluded that as the ordinance ordering the pavment was vold in contemplation of law the paving had never beem ordered, al- though the street had been paved. The city contended that while the pav- ing ordinance did not give the council jurisdiction to levy the cost of the paving against abutting property, it nevertheless was a valld ordinance ordering the pav- ing, and under it the council acquired jurisdiction to order the curbing. The supreme court sustained the city in this contention and gave it the right to relevy the curbing tax. This ruling af- fects all the curbing taxes in the city, and under it, i the taxes be enjoined for any technical defect, the city can &t once proceed to relevy them. i Saves Big Amount of Money, Assistant City Attorney James H. Adams, who defended in the Orr case, states that there are probably $150,000 of | curbing taxes upon the treasurer's books | which will be affected by this decision This amount, be explains, s scattered through the 280 paving districts where | curbing has ben put in and taxes levied to cover the cost of the same. It will also entitle the vity to have all the other decrees which have been entered in the district court during the last two or three | years modified in accordance with the de- | cision in the case of Orr against the city The first decree under the new ruling was granted by Judge Keysor yesterday | morning Stillman & Price, att'ys, law, coilections.
