HITCH IN RIFLE COMPETITIVE PROGRAM How Much Disadvantage Attaches to & Carbine in Target Practice 1s Likely to Be Officially Settled at Last. ‘The delay in arranging the programs for the infantry rifie competition at Fort Leav- enworth which will be held next week is due to the efforts of the members of the en- gineer corps to enter members in the event. ‘There are four companies of engineers, and no provision is made for them in the way of rifle competition. They are armed with Krag-Jorgensen carbffies, a gun similar in every way except as to length to the rifles of the infantry. They could possibly be ac- commodated In the competition, but they are asking that the length of the gun be considered and that the four men which t y desire to enter be given an advantage certaln percentage on account of the flulcr-nce in the length of the piéce. This the managers of the competition are not inclined to do at this time, and the en- gloeers are standing out. It may be lhl the handicap will be permitted, or may enter regardless of the difference ln the length of the gun. Untll this question is ettied the programs will not be isbued.

Shields, county attorney, who had com- plained that Briggs has not been suficlently vigilant in pursuit of gamblers nor fur- nished him with evidence on which to prosecute. In the amswer Briggs admits that it is his duty to arrest, with a warrant, anyone properly charged with an offense before a magistrate having jurisdietion of the of- fense, but denies that it is his duty to ar- rest without a warrant any person whom he has good reason to belleve gulity of vio- Iating & state law or city ordinance, ex- pt when such offense is a felony. He de- nies that it is his duty to furnish the Shields-Dunn vigilantes evidence, but states that he 1s and always has been willing to ell them whatever he could. onee complaiaed to him of suspected gam- bling, but never went farther in the matter. He will, he afrm finds violating the gambling laws In South Omaha, but as yet has found none so occu- pled, nor has there been complaint filed with Bim by any of Bouth Omahs people. The writ, he insists, has no force when direoted to him, he s but the ap- pointee of the mayor, subject to removal at any time and without power either to appoint or dlscharge any of the men on his force, but merely to assign them to their beats and superintend thelr work.

The promotion committee of the Audi- torium company are busy with the arrange- ment for the concert grounds. F. W. Clark is architect In charge and 1s preparing detals of ten. and booths. The tent will stand closer to the eastern side of the ground this year than formerly, giving more room for landscape decoration on the western side near the main entrance. The present arrangement shows 1,200 re- served seats, 800 fewer than last year, which permits early comers to have fair seats without reserving them and at the ame time provides as many reserved seats as will be sold for any concert. The committee has named the new march written by the leader of the band for this testival, “The Festival March,” and the work has been dedicated to the Auditorium company. The sale of books of admission tickets s progressing satistactorily, more than $2,500 having been disposed of at this time.

Ten miles more of its Niobrara branch, which extends from Verdigris, the old terminus, has been completed, or will be by Saturday night. General Manager Bidwell statéd that by that time the line would be finished as far as Virdel, which is twenty-one miles from Verdigris. This last ten miles has been finished since about July 4. “We have no doubts now that our line will be completed by September,” said Mr. Bidwell, “for we have all the material and help required and are progressitg with un- usual facility with the work. There was some talk that we undertook the construc- tion of this plece of road, because we be- Ileved the Rosebud reservation was to be opened by the congress just adjourned and that since congress at the first session did not throw open the reservation, we had abandoned our plan of construction. I wish to say that_this is mnot true in any particular. We were not influenced at all by the matter of the opening of the reserv- ation and are proceeding with our work re- gardless of the action of congress in de- terring the admission of settlers to the Rosebud and will bave it completed and in operation long before the winter session, which will afford the first opportunity for congress to act.” Where the Road Runs. ‘When completed the Niobrara branch will cover a distance of sixty-seven miles, ex- tending from Verdigris to two and a half miles west of Bonesteel. This traverses Boyd ecounty, Nebraska, and Gregory county, South Dakota, and will be the first railroad through that section. The Elkhorn intends to erect stations at- every town along the road as soon possible. The extra mileage beyond Bonesteel is for stock yard purposes. The road will not be thrown open for transportation by regular trains until the| construc.lon work reaches Lynch, which s thirteen miles west of Virdel, the point of completion now. Construction trams, Gen- eral Manager Bidwvell says, will be used for all business up to that point. The line will pass through every town along the general route travgrsed, except Butte, which it will have to skip owing to the abrupt elevation, which is not accessible to comstruction or (ransportation. As there are 2,600 quarter sections of land in that part of the Rosebud reservation to be opened, and which will be tapped by the new road, the Elkborn counts on driving the opening wedge to a settlement of some. 20,000 people and the opening up of a very fertile strip of country to permanent home- steaders. Hill-Harriman Fight. The report from Chicago published in The | other employes of a bui Bee to the effect that the Union Paclfic had purchased the Chicago, Milwaukeo & §t. Paul is one of the general topics of dis- cussion among local railroad men. It is generally accredited, one or two Uplon Pa- cific officlals sharing in the view that the deal hes been or will actually be made. The opinion prevails that the purchase of the Milwaukee by the Unlon Pacific is merely & continuation of the old Harriman- Hill fight and marks a victory for the for- mer. In this connection it s recalled that President Hill of the Great Northern sought to get bold of the Milwaukee a year and u half ago during the great Wall street ba tle which resulted in his defeating Harri- man for the acquisition of the Burlington. It was Hill's orfginal plan to capture the Milwaukee, but failing in this he set his nets for the Burlington and after a de perate confiict with the Union Pacific peo- ple landed that property. “But the Union Pacific never quits and Mr. Harriman was simply animated to greater activity by that defeat,” sald a local officfal, “and now it looks as if he had captured the very road which Mr. Hill wanted and failed to get\and, therefore, he has handed the great northwesterner a ‘stift upper cut,’ for acquisition of the Milwaukee by the Union Pacific means a powerful Harriman rival to the HIll roads in the northwest.” 1t is believed that the plans announced by the Milwaukee of beginning the ex- tension of its line to Seattle, from its we ern terminus, Evarts, 8. D, will be car- ried through now without delay and that construction work will be pushed with all possible energy and facllity Renewing Roadbeds, The unusually heavy precipitations of this summer and spring have made lots of work for the construction departments of raflroads. The Burlington has found it necessary to remew its roadbed on the southern main division from Wymore to Oxford, a distance of 131 miles, because of the infirm condition in which it was left by the continuous rains. A large force of men has been put to work to make the road as near washout proof as can be. Sandstone from the company’s quarries at ‘Woodruff, Kan., is belng used for this pur- pose, LIGHT WIRES MUST BE RIGHT City Electrieian Se Circular Lete ter to Owners and Agents As a result of recent small fires that might have been very serious ones the city electriclan is sending to the owners or managers of all establishments of consid- erable size within the city limits a circular letter which reads: Beveral burnouts of electrical appliances have of late occurred whish, If not dis.
