Plans of the Party. At 8 o'clock Sunday afternoon the vis- fors and the captain, who has been a prin- alpal promoter of the project from the very first, will leave for Hot Springs over the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missourl Valley road. Captain Palmer say ““We shall be at the Springs two or three days. The city is to furnish the site after ‘we select it. The appropriation voted last epring by congress was $170,000, and this will be invested in one hospital. building, to which additions are to be made in future years when the additional ‘appropriations are secured. So soon as the site is selected the government's architect will begin on the plans, and though thirty days’ adver- tisement will be necessary we expect to see the foundation taking shape by the 1at of next October. “After disposing of the task of selecting & site at Hot Springs, probably our party will wish to visit Deadwood, Lead and other points of interest up in the Hills. “This institution, you know, 18 to be & sanitarium and is to receive inmates of the soldiers’ homes when the veterans of either the civil or the Spanish and Philip- pine wars seem to require a change of climate or the medicinal qualities of spring water such as the Dakota resort hae. - Burely there could be nothing bet- ter than the glorious climate of that place, 8,483 feet above the sea, and eventually it will prove a real saving to the national government. The §170,000, though a very snug sum, \s only the begioning of what is hoped for.” The central home is at Dayton, O., and there are others at Milwaukee, Me.; Elizabeth City county, Virgini Leavenworth, Los Angeles, Grant county, Indiana; Danville, lL.; Johnson City, Tenn.

An unfortunate meeting of two dogs in police court materially aided the prosecu- tion in establishing the charge that the large 8t. Bernard dog belonging to Charles . Doolittle, 4230 Erskine street, was viclous and haviag the death sentence passed on him. The .trial had beem on for several days, the dog being charged with biting soveral boys in his neighborhood. Bight witnesses had sworn that the dog was a good deg. The dog had wandered about the court room, making friends with many, and wppeared to have the sympathy of the fudge. When nearly all the evidence was tm, a little, black, shaggy dog wandered in the reom, evidently looking for a famillar face or & kind word. The St. Bernard saw bim, flew at him like a ton of brick and the two mixed in a grand spectacular chew- Ing contest. The court room cleared as if by magic, with the exception of one or two bfficers and the owner of the big dog, who fnally separated the combatants. The big Bog resumed his meanderings around the pourt room as though nothing had hap- pened, but the work had been done and Berka assessed the death penaity. appesl was taken to the district court.

Ith THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1902 SIGNS OF RATE WAR VANISH Cat on New York and Eastern Marift Has Been Withe drawn, Omaha lines that had in effect the re- Quced excursion rates to New York, At lantic City and other eastern points bave announced the withdrawal of thess schedules In compliance with orders from their headquarters in Chicago and St Louis. This action s the result of a meet- ing of the Central Passenger association, held at Chicago yesterday morning. When these rates were first announced it was known that a hitter rate war would ensue If the schedules remained in effect for any length of time. Consequently me of the eastern trunk lines, the Hrle among them, set out at once to induce the rival roads to withdraw their anmounce- ment and thus prevent the demoraliza- tion of fares. Most of the lines howed a dispcsition to get out of the threatened war the best way they could and revert to peaceable methods, but it s sald the Baltimore & Ohlo took a positive ntand against conces- slon, resolved at first to continue the rates and await the consequences. The Wabash was appealed to lead the western lines in the recession, but refused to do so until assured that its esstern competitor, the Baltimore & Ohlo, would follow suit. The Central Passenger association was convened for the purpose of calling off these echedules and it was entirely suc- cesstul, for the Baltimore & Ohlo is said to have acted promptly In the withdrawal of its original announcement, and this led the way for the other roads, resulting in the cancellation of the rates entirely and the thwarting of a movement to precipl- tate a serfous rate war. The advisory committee of the Western Passenger assoclation is holding a meeting in Chicago to rearrange the affairs of the Western Immigration bureau, whose re- suscitation was brought about by the re- cent meeting of the Transcontinental as- soclation «t Colorado Springs, which se- cured the return of the Union Pacific to the bureai and saved the buresu from a dangerous relapse. The chief object of the meeting was to create a falr and satisfactory division among all the roads of the immigrant busi- ness, which is steadily on the increase. During the month of May thia traffic broke all previous records, but it was not as evenly divided among the several roads constituting the immigration bureau as was desired. The Great Northern, which ocar- ried 8,600 new settlers into its territory during that month, had by far the lion's share of the busines WANTS NONE BUT GOOD MEN Real Estate Bxch Directs Itwelf to Goversor on Police Board Appolntments.

ONE HUNDRED TICKETS THE LIMIT S | This Number May Be Incremsed by Fitty at Rallroad’s Option, Original List in Sell- ing Fast. The proposed excursion to Deadwood which will start Tuesday is the principal ! theme discussed in Commercial club and Ak-Sar-Ben circles, and from present in- dications the 100 persons who are expected to go will Increase G0 per cent before the train etarts Tuesday evening. The hustling committee of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben, with 100 tickets for sale, started to work Monday afternoon, and before night one.| member sold 10 per cent of the total num- | ber taken out by the committes, while ' other members made good sales at the | same time. This batch of 100 tickets is all that are immediately at the disposal of the promoters of the excursion, so that there 1s no assurance after they are disposed of that others can be secured. The managers hope to be able to secure at least fifty more tickets for the special train if they are de- sired, but as the train is a speclal the com- panies handling it may not desire to in- crease the number of cars, as some of the territory will be covered at a very rapid rate in order to conform to the schedule. Detalls of the Trip. The details of the trip are still being pre- pared and it has not been decided as to the time the train will return to the city. It will leave the Webster street station at § o'clock Tuesday evening and make the run to Long Pine without stop. This much has been determined. The itinerary from Long Pine to Deadwood, with stops at Hot Springs, the stations along the Elkhorn in Nebraska and at Sturgls, has been prac- tically settled upon. It is now contem- plated to reach Omaha on the return trip Sunday morning Instead of Saturday at noon, as previously announced. The com- mittee having in charge the arrangements with the rallroads find that it will be possi- ble to glve the members of the party an opportunity to visit the towns between Grand Island and Lincoln on the line of the Burlington by changing the date of arrival. It is urged In favor of a revision of the itinerary that Saturday afternoon {s a half holiday In the jobbing district, anyway, and that little business would be transacted by the members of, the party if they should be i’ Omaha, while the territory through which the train will pass on its way to Lincoln {s one which has not been visited by Omaha jobbers in person in several years. Longer Stay in Deadwood. The revised schedule may permit a longer stop in Deadwood and an opportunity to at- tend the evening session of the Elks' earni~ val. All of these reasons incline the com- mittee to look with favor upon the proposed change, but the final schedule will not be announced until later in the week. The railroad officials profess to be able to supply the train and run it according to any sched- ule which may be determined upon with notice as late as Saturday, so that it may be the last of the week before the final rangements are published.
