N0 NEW SHOPS FOR CHEYENNE Btory Revived, but Union Pacifioc Officials Bay Nothing is Doing, MAY BUILD NEW POWER PLANT ONLY fome Heomomy May He Expected by a nge in Equipment, but No Gendral Alteration is TAkely. A report came from Cheyenne Sunday that the Union Pacific is planning to en- large and improve its shops at that place. The plan, as reported, contemplated the erection of several new buildings, includ- ing & wheel foundry, blast furnace and car ‘works. Superintendent McKeen of the motive power and machinery department of the Union Paeific, was shown the report and asked concerning it. He mald: “I do not know of any new plan to en- large the Cheyenne shops. It the com- pany has any such plan it |8 news to me. However, as a matter of fact, there was a pian some years ago to increase the facili- ties out there and it is likely that this may be done in the future, but there Is no defl- nite plan to be put into execution that I know anything about.” From the office of President Burt a sim- flar statement was obtained. Mr. McKeen's statement that such a move had been con- templated some years ago Was confirmed, but that it would be put into operation any time soon was doubted. “It is certatn that the ecompany is doing mothing with that now," was sald. According to Mr, McKeen the old plan, which may yet be carried out, contem- plated an extension of 150 feet to the Cheyenne machine hops, & new power house and a coach shop. It was the idea to install all these without the erection of any entirely new bufldings, since the com- pany is well equipped with buildings there and it seems that necessary additions to the facilities could be made without put- ting up any more structures. It has been estimated that the company could realize a saving in expenses of $12,- 000 a year by the installation of a new power plant alone at Cheyenne, and it Is more than probable in view of this fact, which seems to have commended itself to the offictals of the Union Pacific, such an fmprovement will be made in the near future. The need of a coach shop there 18 aleo sald to be keenly felt. Asked 1f the present labor troubles had part in deterring the company from the execution of any such plans as these an offclal eaid: “None whatever. It thero was any im- mediate 11kelihood of starting on this work the Unlon Pacific certainly would not ecause of a temporary strike Back on Train Schedule. While all the raflroads report that thelr tracks, which were badly damaged and menaced by the recent rains, some of which are not yet out of danger, are ma- terially improved and the water in most places subsiding, a new obstruction to the thorough reparation of roadbeds has pre- sented iteelf. It is the scarcity of labor- ers. A losal raflroad manm, whose road has been ome of the greatest sufferers from high water and whose tracks will require much work before they are in anything 1tke normal condition, sald: “We are finding it a very severe task to get men enough to do the work on our roades that ought to be done at once. La- borers are scarce and despite the fact that our road is paying $1.76 a day for such work, it has been able to secure but a very small and inadequate force of work- men. Harvest being in' progress, I fancy other roads will find it similarly dificult to get men to repair their tracks. It we could get hold of large forces and the weather continued as it is for four or five days all the tracks could be put into ex- cellent shape.” B. W. aGrove.

The police are making an effort to rid the town of a number of women of the| underworld and Inmates of immoral houses, and as a consequence a number of women and eeveral men were fined in police court yesterday. Some of these women, it is #aid by the police, have committed soveral robberies lately, and as it {s very seldom the vietim will appear against them they cannot be convicted. It is the intcation of the police to force them out of the city. Judge Berka followed up the work of the police by fining everyone who was brought before him, with the exception of two—M. | Robinault, charged with being & suspiciovs character, and J. W. Carroll—who were dis- charged. Carroll was arrestod for fighting. He and | Sam Hoft and a number of others became | involved In a fight at a saloon at Second | and Hickory streets Sunday afternoon. Hoff | and Carroll were both badly beaten. Hoft | and those who had beat him escaped and | the judge concluded that two black eyes | and many bruises on Carroll was sufficlent punishment. These were fined $5 and costs: Anna Ridgeway, Ella Gordon, Nora Smith, Lucy Jackeon, Carrie Mack, May Bmith, James Woodson, A. Lindsey, Estes Bynum, Will Smith. Nellle Burdett, James Burns, Gus Lin- Willlam Valentine, C. Buckley, 8. 1. McClusky, Charles Johnson drank too much | and were assessed $1 and costs each. Ed Blantom had no visible means of support and will work at the city jail for the next six days. Harry Gordon was fined $4, Frank Hansen $6, Carl Bunmen $5 and May Rose for disturbing the peace, and each will have to pay costs. Valentine, in addition to being drunk, wrote a check Which is supposed to be not as good as the paper on which it was written, and attempted to cash it at several saloons.

The Great Parks of Colorado Bear an important relation to the state in all her diversified interests. They consti- tute one of her chief glories. They are not, as many suppose, email areas of level ground closely hemmed in by neighboring hills, and beautiful with evergreens and flowers, but they are vast territories of country almost as large as some state: They contain flelds, forests and plains, where the herds of the cattlemen have succeeded the herde of buffalo; they are watered by creeks and rivers and contaln villages and farm houses; they have springs and lakes, where hotels and other places of entertainment have been built for settlers, for tourists, hunters, campers and others seeking remote places of resort in the heart of the Rocky.mountaine. To enable persons to reach these favored loealitles without unnecessary expenditure of time or money the Union Pacific has put in effect very low rates and splendid train service, three trains leaving Missouri river dally for Denver.

OMAMA Ope of the best equl EELEY INSTITUTE OUR DAVE ARRIVES AT LAST Distinguished Stranger Comes Back to Omaba to Repair Fenoes, BLISSFUL IGNORANCE ABOUT POLITICS Will Open an Office to Entertain the Faithfuol an Distribution of His Cam- patgn Fand, Congressman David H. Mercer, the Long | Delayed, has arrived in Omaba. With Mrs. Mercer and their daughter, the distinguished stranger came yesterday morning. T. W. Blackburn, local manager for the congressman, returned Saturday from the Black Hills and has his office draped for the coming of his lord. The dally average | of callers has been twenty-five—the same twenty-five each day—and yesterday after- noon Mr. Mercer held a levee for the faith- ful and incidentally for the hopeful. Mr. Mercer says he will open an office for their accommodation and will really remain un- til congress reconvenes. Monday morning shortly after his arrival a reporter for The Bee interviewed him at the home of his parents, 2811 Hickory street. Interviewing Mr. Mercer at this particular time on Any matter of real im- portance is done with a gimlet and a suc- tlon bulb. He defers everything to “the committee,” and when reminded that the committee deferred everything to him he only anewers that he has been so busy that | he “hasn’t even thought of politics.” “I left Washington Friday, coming by way of Atlantic City to get my wife and daughter,” he explained. “How long are you to be here?" asked. “All summer. I'm here for the finish. I've got blood in my eye and atn feeling healthy. I shall not return to the capital until congress reconvenes.” “When s the commlittee to meet?" “I don’t know. You see, I haven't seen any of the committeemen yet." “But the committee seems to be leaving it all to you,” was suggested. Mr. Mercer smiled dreamily and answered: “Well, it's cool, pleasant weather now and the people are all pretty busy, so I guess there is no hurry.” About the Crawford System. was “What 18 your preference as to the man- ner of nominating? The Crawford sys- tem?” “Well, I don't know that I have any preference. 1 notice that LaFollete of Wisconsin won quite a victory for the Crawford system the other @y and your paper has sometimes seemed to favor it. But then The Bee skips around onto so many sides of a question that there fs nothing assured by that."” “It the Crawford eystem at all, would it be plurality or majority for selection?" “The Minnesota law makes it plurality and the Wisconsin recommendation makes it plurality, but while I confess that there are some things about the system that strike me favorably, I am not prepared to speak advisedly on any of it yet. Indeed, I've been too busy to pay any attention to politics. T am through now and home to look after them, but this has been the busiest eession I have ever had. I made a record in getting through my om- nibus bill, caring for nearly 200 cities, but | I've had hard, tedious work through the session.” “In the event of another man being nomi- | nated what will you do?” the Interrogator ventured to ask. Mr. Mercer appeared stunned. Will Do as He Sees Fit. “Well, now that's a contingency that I had not even thought of,”" he said, with a feeble smile. “I expect to be renominated and re-elected with absolute certainty. They can't possibly beat me except by skullduggery and chicanery. And in that event—well, I reserve the: right to do as I see fit. “But it won't happen. I've got too many friends for that. You may have noticed a few at the Gurley-Rosewater debate. That was an_eye-opener for some people, 1 guess. Why, Rosey's sllly! He's silly to get mad about that senatorial fight! I aidn’t get in his way nearly as much as he aid in mine, It I had had that Douglas delegation I would be United States sena- tor pow. But I don't get mad because I lost. Even-tempered is the only way to be. And we are all to live some time yet. “Now that's all I can say today. I am golng to open an office downtown and will be glad to have you call any time. Just yet there is nothing to give out. Nearer St. Louis Than Before. The Wabash St. Louls Express leaves Omaha Union station 5:65 p. m.; arrives 8t. Louls 7 a. m.
