FIGHT ON MANNINC THE SHOPS Oontest Between Union Pacifio and Strikers Oenters on Nenunions, ALL BLACKSMITHS LIKELY TO GO OUT Company Determined on Plece System and Men Resolved Against It— New Emyloyes Come The contest between the Union Paeifio and the strikers seems now to center chiefly upon the manning of the shops. The ,company continues to Import nonunion workmen with apparently little etfort, and ,the strikers are devoting their time largely to fedusing these forces after they arrive. Last vight strikers claimed that fourteen Insurgents from the Omaha shops joined their ranks and that a larger break would te mads before morning. The union pickets who cliim to have beep at the gates when the mun left the yards, hold that two of the deserters were of the most skilled in the shops. Strikers asserted also last night that during the day eleven nomunion men had left the shops at Cheyenne. They claim to inroads on the company’s forces in this way each day, but ofcials of the Union Pacific invariably contradict these statements and say their forces in all the shy are dally Increasing. In Omaha alone rday thirty-eight men in all were in- troduced, but of this number ten are sald to have left before the fourteen from the general ranks last night. The claims and statements of the company and strikers are conflicting as to these matters and it 1s difficult to get at thi actual number that come and go, The company was as positive and vehement yesterday as ever that it could get all the men it needed and that the number of deserters had been greatly exaggerated. President John Slocum of l‘. Interna- tional Brotherhood of Blacksmiths, who is #till in the city, expects to confer with President Burt and Buperintendent McKeen of the Union Pacific today if possible re- garding certaln interests of the blacksmiths. The blacksmiths are working in perfect :barmony and co-operation mnow with the {bollermakers and machinists and all are fletormlmd on the one proposition of not ylelding to plecework. Inveterate opposi- tion to plecework is the slogan of the strikers’ campaign. All Blacksmiths May Quit. It may be only a question of time until all the blacksmiths in the Union Pacific shops go out on a strike, thus materlally increasing the nufnber of strikers. In Omaha and Armstrong only are the black- lmllhu out at present. These are the only |places where the members of this craft have been ed to accept plecework, con- sequently the others have had no occasion to strike. But things are very liable to undergo a ‘ltll change soon, as an officlal of the comuny says it Is oily a question of 'time until the Unlon Pacific will announce a general enforcement of the plecework #ystem, and the blacksmiths have repeat- edly avowed thelr determination never to mccept plecework. “Plecework has been decided upon by this company, and, & matter of fact, it is to become gemeral and not spply to part of our shops only,” said an ofcial yesterday | morning. “‘How soon we shall establish it in all the shops is not decided, but we re gradually introducing it all over the | syatem and 1t general adoption is merely | contingenc: Officials vehemently deny the reports ot | desert! in, their shop forces at Kilis |Kan,, and aiso at Council Bluffe 'Omaha, while the strikers claim to have unquestioned proof of these desertions. +¥We also say that these reports about our attempt or intention to introduce the contract system into our shops are en- tirely Incorrect. There i¢ $imply mothing in them." New Men Come and Go. The importation by the Union Pacific of thirty-one new men from the east and eleven from the soutk, the immediate desertion of ten amd the alleged {nteation of practically the entiré number to rt upon their arrival in Cheyenne, to which .point the men are destined. en- livened interest in the strike yesterda: ‘“We are baving no trouble at all in get- ting all the men we want,” sald an official of the company. “We have another lal pumber under employment in Chicago and they will be here in due time. Why, don't you know we could hire enough foremen to 4@o0 all our work,” he sald jokingly. “But eriously, we have a large number of good places open to competent foremen and like- ‘wise have a number of applications from .very capable and reputable men who have served In these capacities for such roads as the Burlington and many eastern lines. ‘We have concluded no definite arrange- ments with any such as yet, but negotia- ‘tions are pending in many cases and it is (mot at all improbable that within a few ¢days we will have several excellent shop foremen at our disposal. Story of Twe Imported Menm. R. D. and F. J. Powers, brothers, two of the men who came into the city and de- serted upon their arrival at the Unlon Pa- THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, cific shops, had this to say of thelr trans- actlons with the company: ‘“We were speeifically told by the man who hired us in Chicago that there was no strike on out here. Had we known the a tual conditions, however, we may have a cepted the proposition just the same, for we were looking for a trip west and found this & very easy way to get it. We wero to get our pay from the dny we hired to the agent. The large majority of this erowd that came in today are men who, like our- ves, are looking for transportation west, many of them not mechanies at all. We understand thess fellows are going to be sent on to Cheyenne, and it is their in- tention to desert the company there. only know three in the entire party will stay, and they ha: in Omaba.” One of these men claims to be & boller- maker, the other a blacksmiih. They w it is the scheme of the remainder of the party to leave the company at Julesburg, this side of Cheyenne. COUP DE CROOP IS THE LIMIT » of the Really Dan- 111 Cody's PBarke T ous Work of Cewboys, Major John M. Burke of the wild west, as well as of Buffalo Bill's show, is in Omaha again, seeing a few old friends and bastlly arranging his business matters so that he can get y for Lincoln and Den- ver this evening. Major Burke'is trying to burnish up his French, masticate the Ger- man and parletta Itallano, He has ordered from Sousa a medley embracing the “Star Spangled Banner," “Wacht Bin Thine” the “Belglan Branbanza,” ‘“Marche le Gara- baldl” and “Yankee Dood! This is all preparatory to soon invading Hurope. The major, however, finds Yme to eulogize the merits and glories of the Wild. West, The other evening somebody referred in his hearing to the sensation created by the “Loop the loop.” The major almost turned one himself and came back with the fol- lowing “This ‘loop the loop’ act about which such a fuse is being made,” sald Burke, "‘really is not, when considered critically, nearly as remarkable as the ‘Coup de Croop’ ex- ecuted by half a dozen or more cowboys at each performance of the Wild West. in the former, two natural laws of force are with some ingenuity, I admit, applied to offset each other for the production of & sensational effect, in which there is apparent, but not real, risk to the per- former. Centrifugal force holds the bi- oycle safely against the big circular track, which i{s an embodiment of centripetal force, restraining the vehicle and its ridor from belng projected out into space by, the contrifugal impulse. So long as the rider steers straight, he is quite as safe when head down or at any other poiht of the curve as when on: the sawdust.at the end of the track. It is only when he gets out from the solld centripetal restraint that things are lisble to happen to him. “But look at the cowboy on the back of an outlaw broncho—or thereabouts, more or less—in this great ‘Coup de Croop’ act, things are mot only llable to happen to him sny second, but they do actually happen. The elastic spin ‘whalebone muscles, electric velocity and infernal cunning of the brute apply all known forces, and perhaps devise new ones to get the hated rider from his back. When he initiates a centrifugal movement for the tangentical propulsion of his rider, there is no kindly centripetal defense to ot it, only the sensitiveness of the rider muscles to the Marconi telegraphy of the horse's action, his skill in accommodating himgelt to the same by mental and pyhs- ical “mobility, quickness of response and slender grip of the man's knees on the sad- dle, If that slips he sails off into space and comes down with & bang that makes him feel that this is indeed & ‘hard world.' ‘Take it by and larg as the sallor says, the ‘loop the loop’ bus! 1s & hush-a-by baby game compared with the the ‘Croup da Croop.’ If you don't belleve it come to the Wild West and see the bronchos In action.’ It you have no appetite for your meals something is wrong with your digestion, lver or bowels.

WARRANTS WILL BE DRAWN AT ONCE People Who Have Waited for Thelr Money Cam Now Step Up to Clerk’s Office Get Pala. ‘Within the space of ten minutes Iast night the city councll expended about $30,- 000 of the 1902 levy. This amount included claims of long standing. There was the bill of the Omaha Water company for $12,- 500 and the bill of the electric light com- pany, the rent bill and claims too num- erous to mention. For two days the finance committee has been going over the claims on flle, sorting out the oldest ones and laying aside others for investigation. The result of this work was shown when Adkins, chalrman of the finance committee, arose and read off four long sheets of claims, which he recom mended be pald at once. As the detalls bad all been arranged in committee during the afternoon there was no hitch. The warrants for these claims will be drawn by the clerk today and the mayor will sign them as rapidly as possibl It 1 expected that by Friday at the latest those ‘whose clal have been allowed y call At the clerk’'s office and secure warrants There is one new feature, however, and that is those who owo personal taxes must pay the same before the warrant is lssued or else the amoupt of the tax will be de- ducted from the face of the warrant. Acting for the State Bank of Toledo, John Dale of Omaha asked for the return of a $800 certified check which was deposited when the Toledo bank bid on the library bonds. Not long ago, Mr. Dale informed the clerk that the bonds would not be acocepted on account of a flaw in the his- tory and as the bid was made subject to the legality of the issue he now wants his forefit check, Clerk Shrigley was directed to secure from Mr. Dale a written refusal to mccept the bonds and then the forfeit check will be returned. After the transaction of some minor buai- ness the council adjourned until next Monday night. Workman Recorder Arrested. Upon complaint of J. M. Kenney, the police yesterday afternoon arrested W. B. McCleaiy, recorder of Anclent Order of United Workmen lodge No. 227, on a charge of embezzlement. The complaint alleges that on June 30 McCleary did collect and convert 0 his own use the sum of $16.50 in money belonging to the lodge. McCleary is a shipping clerk employed at Armour’'s and was arrested within a short time after the filing of the complaint. He requested that he given an opportunity of securing bond and In company with De- tective Elsfelder visited a number of his friends, but apparently, without success, for up to the time the police judge le't for home Mrthe evening bond had not been furnished and McCleary was occupyl cell at the city fall. Mr. Kenney stated that only one com- plaint had been filed so far, but others might follow. It was asserted by Mr. Ken- ney that McCleary was short about and bad admitted the shortage. Some of the members of the order are of the opinioa that the shortage may be more than the amount given when a thorough checking of the books is mad According to Mr. Kenney, McCleary was given an opportunity of stralghtening up his accounts when the discrepancy was first discovered, but he declined, saying that he would not ask his friends to help him out. MecCleary lives near Twenty-fifth and L streets and has a wife, who {s now in Chi- cago. Oest Igmores Order. Local democrats were considerably exer- clsed yesterday over the action of Henry Oest, superintendent of the couaty poor farm, in refusing to homor an order of Dr. W, 8. White, assistant county phy- eician, for the admission of Mike Whalen to the county hospital. The condition of Whalen, who is suffering from rheumatism 80 that he can scarcely stand on his feet, was noticed by a prominent member of the ecity councll and upon application ia Dr. White an order admitting Whalen to the county hospital was lssued. Armed with the order Whalen proceeded to the hospital and was told by Oest that there was nothing the matter with him and he was denled admittance. Whalen has been a resident of South Omaha for about fifteen years and is well known. He worked in the packing houses as long as he was able to get about. Of late he has ben unable to get around ex- cept on crutches or with the ald of a cas and as he has no home and is out of money his ¢riends think the proper place for him is at the county institution. A complaint is to be made by local demo- crats to the county commiessioners and the question will be asked as to who is the best judge of & man's cdndition Oest or the regular county doctor. Until the question of his admission to the hospital is settled friends of Whalen will look after him bere, Mayor Koutsky Explains. August Miller, street foreman, at the Monday night meeting of the council tered a written protest against the amount of money allowed him. He signed this communication “‘street commissioner.” In fact, he has & habit of signing all com- munications in this manner. In explanation of why Mr. Miller did not recelve more money from the city for June work Mayor Koutsky stated to a B reporter yesterday afternoon that there was no such office as street commiseloner at the present time. The mayor sald: *I have told Mr. Miller more than once tl he is foreman of the street gang and that is all and that he would be pald §2 for every day he worked. This is in accord- ance with the old order of things. Whe Jobunston and Ensor were mayors they d clined to appoint a street commisssion for the reason that such a position cal ried with it more salary and in the | terest of ecomomy I have followed the precedent set. The same amount of work can be accomplished with a competent forema: with & street commissione; It is not my lIntention to burden the tax- payers with the additional expense of §25 or $36 a month, just for the sake of giving Miller or anyone else a title, a et for man s goud emough for me and that is what Miller is. I do not contemplate any change in the present arrangements, as I bhave no intention of appointing a street commission Fire Hall Completed. Contractor J. M.

Records for big week-day attendance were pushed up to a mew figure yesterday at Krug Park, where & ragtime concert by Huster's band was the speclal feature of lengthy and varied program. Officers of the Street Rallway company say it was the biggest crowd they have handled excepting Sundays. The audience was representative. Everybody seemed to be in a happy mood that harmonized with the music, to which Joy the eool breezes of the park added com- fort. The regular program by the band in cluded ten selections, to which were added half a dozen extra in response to encores. Venetta King, the corfet virtuoso, con- tributed Shubert's Serenade and in “Old Madrid.” T acrobatic feature was the Loretta family. The two petite twin sis- ters, aged 6, perform some really remark- able feats for their tender years. With the women and children especially they have scored a decided hit. The Mount Pelee vol- canic disaster, including burning Martin- Q the “Passion Play” and other free shows were witnessed by large audiences. The secondary pastimes such as the bowl- ing alleys, merry-go-round, the pack of bur- ros and shooting galleries were kept busy with devotees. Another ragtime concert will be given next Wednosday. 'STEALS HIS UNCLE'S MONEY Roy ¥ m Locked Up for Leoting the Treasure Trove of His Avuneular Relative, J. 8. Fadden, 207 North enteenth street, after complaining to the police that his nephew, Roy Fadden, had robbed him of $26 and a deposit slip for $175, turned detective and arrested the woy and took him to jail. Fadden caught the boy as he was riding a bicycle jn the nelghborhood of his home. The nephew is 17 yuu i age and was staying at the uncle's House. When the elder Fadden waked yesterday morning the nephew, the deposit slip snd $2b;were gone. ‘When the boy was taken 10 the station the deposit slip and $28 of the money was found on him. He told ‘the police that at 4 yesterday morning a burglar entered the house of his uncle and stole the prop- erty. He heard him leaving and gave chase, finally taking the money from him, After being questioned by the police Fadden ad- mitted that he had also robbed Mrs. A. Jackson, 1600 Davenport street, of a purse containing $8.10 and some receipts. He burned the purse and papers and spent the money.

He left Tuesday night for New York City and “his ship saile Wednesday" for his foreign pos He has been on leave of absence since M bringing with him the ratified extradition treaty with King Alexander of Servia after six months' negotiating. “Within the past five months,” he says, ‘“there has been established for the first time In history a direct shipp'ng communi- cation between New York City and Greec: and I anticipate that the United States practically opening a new market that will be a most profitable one. Heretofore our manufactures have been serlously handi- capped by the fact that all their shipments had to go first to London or Liverpool and then be re-shipped to Greece, making the expense too heavy to sell against competi- tion with any profit. Now the Hamburg- American line will run steamers every month directly, and the expense will be re- duced and other advantages follow. Greek Interest in America. “The Greeks are a very enterprising peo- ple, with good business ability, and their market is highly desirable, for they Import all manufactures and export heavily in grapes, wines and currants. Of Zantle cur- rants alone they have exported to Ameri no less than §0,000,000 or 90,000,000 pounds within the past year. And these can only be raised about the Guif of Corinth. Teu miles back in the country the soil won't produce them. “Fruft, however, Is not thelr only ex- port. The Greeks themselves are coming to America in greater numbers than ever before, 1 belleve, Shortly before I left Athens, two steamers sailing within three weeks, carried to this country 1,800 Greeks. Others who came first have written back telling of the business opportunities here and the letters have apparently persuaded a general immigration. “Nor are the Greeks totally unfamilar with Americans; as more Americans visit Greece than people of any other na- tlonality. Last winter in Athens there must have been at least 4,500 and possibly 5000 Americans. Only a very few take residence there, however, as the summers are intensely warm to offset the winters, which are ideal.” PLAN FOR NAMING Patent Medicine Men Spring Scheme on Omaha Reservi tion, T. J. Baird, agent for a patent medicine manufacturing house at Chattancoga, has introduced a ystem of nomenclature among the Indians of the Omaha reserva- tion. The system is sald to be an fm- provement over that which has obtained for ages of picking out some eccentricity of the papoose and making his pame con- form to it, and it is alleged further that it will dispense with such plcturesque titles as Sammy - Make - Room - for-Your-Uncle, Hole-in-the-Day and the like. The salient feature of the plan Is to give the papoose & surname which, by a strange colncidence, is also the name of one of the brands of medicine made by Mr. Baird's house and then tack on to the front part of it a “given” name which shall bave a logical connection with the surname. For example, the Chattanooga house 1% making a kind of cordial the exact name of which is not essential to this account— Jimpson Weed cordial will do. All of the ooses of a family are given this as a patronymic and then, as a Christian pame, such appellations as “I-Swear-By," “After-Taking," “Your-Druggist-Sells " “Nothing-Like,” et cetera are bestowed upon the individual This makes the complete name, -8wear-By-Jimpson- W e ed-Cordial,” Jimpson-Weed-Cordl: thereby combining utllity with a good, serviceable name that 1is easily remem- bered. “My plan is to get the pcrmlnlon of the federal authorities to e elghteen twenty of these Indians to the Loulsiana Purchase exposition at St. Loufs. The naming of them {s merely a detail and INDIANS | & n't say anything about that just at present. It lsn'c/supposed that the Indians will take these names permanently in preference to their own, though of course it they should choose to do so we would have no objection. Tha names will be engraved on beautifal bronze, ellver and gold medals and worn about the necks or as badges. “All the Indians I talked with took kindly to the plan and the agent interposed no objection, though of course he was not in & position to glve permission to take his wards off the reservation. The Indlans will be taken good care of and will be pald tor their services.” Mr. Baird called upon several officers at the federal bullding yesterday to wocure their endorsement of his plan. “This may explain the many peculiar names which representatives of the Cauca- slan race are compelled to y through life,” said Marshal Mathews. “Such names, for instance, as Dink Botts, Abe Slupsky and Pod Dismuke.
