Yesterday morning twenty-seven recruits arrived from Cindinnati, baviog been employed by the company's agents at that place. Four of the men, who belong to the machinis union, refused to go to work n they reached the shops and learned that a strike was in progress. They are much perturbed over their situation and are disposed to seek redress for what they consider serfous srievances. The names of these men are Frederick Loeffler, John Zimmermann, Alfred Kuehno and Joseph Bela. They are Germans and eannot speak the English language. Thelr eonversing 18 dome through interpreters. The spokesman of the quartet said: “We came from Hamilton, O., where we were &t work in a contract machine shop owned by Kraut & Benninghofen. We w Steadily employed at regular machinists' wages. When we went to consult the Union Pacific's agent about coming out here we were told that no strike in progress, that everything was peaceable ond quiet and thet we would undergo no danger of having to supplant strikers or union men it we csme out. While we were getting the unfon scale, it was not 45 good money as that offered by this agent, and we were Induced to acoept his offer because of the increase in pay, ha fog been istence of a strike until we reached Coun- cfl Blufts, and when we got to the Omaba shops we left the crowd without tompany’s guards that if we ventured out- #ide we would be killed by the strikers, but this aid not look reasonable to us, as ‘we were leaving bec: take strikers’ places. In & strange city without employment, having sacrificed good, steady work o the promises held out to us by this agent in Cincinna The men are well dressed and intelligent. There is talk of trying to hold the Union Pacific responsible for this condition, but by what means this will be done or attempted is not definitely determined. If it appears im- practicable to resort to legal action the men probably will go on farther west; since they are out this far, and seek employment at their trade in contract shops. Bealdes these four there are two more union men who hold machinists’ cards in the crowd that came in yesterday morning. They are still on the inside of the shops, but here 18 wo ihoughi thal lhey wiii remain there. They claim to have been decelved by the employment agent as the other four were, but are not ready as yet to leave the shops. Strikers are much wrought up over recur- ring incidents like that of yesterday and last Week, when the Indiana men were brought out. They declare that something will be done, 1t possible, to prevent the company from taking men away from steady work in the east and bringing them out here under the pretense that there is no strike. Th t only an imposition on the men thils made the objects of traffic, but on the strikers as well and the public. They contend that while these men are skilled mechanics in most cases, their pe- cuniary resources are meager and they Teave home with just enough money to bear their expenaes until they cen reach their destination and go to work, as they are led to belleve, at extra large wages under peaceable conditions. Shop Forces Normal. Wednesday, before the arrival of this last batch of men, un offieial of the Union Pacific stated that the Omahu shops were supplied with adequate and mormal forces in every department and that work was progressing with entire satisfaction. The same officlal stated yesterday that the forces at work on the mew bullding were large enough to warrant satistactory progress, except In the case of the car- penters, who are still a limited quantity. “This was a carpenter's fight,” he said, “and 1 don't see why the bricklayers had to dip into it at all. They have been de- feated, however, for all the bricklayers for whom there is work have returned and we are gotting along as well as before the strike.” 'EMPEROR SAYS - THEY LIE German Ruler Reproaches Those Who Charge Enmity Toward Cathollcs.

Payne of Chicago and Henry J. Furber, the Olympian games delegates, who have been the guests of Sir Thomas Lipton on Erin for several days past, returned to Lomdon to- day. Judge Payne will sail for New York on the Hamburg-American steamer Fuerst Bls- marck next Saturday. Speaking to & representative of the As- soclated Press tonight, Mr. Furber sald: 1 will remain a month longer in Europe as I have - engagements with the president of Switzerland, the king of Belglum and others relative to the Olymplan games at Chicago. Our visit so far has been most satisfactory. | We are working now on a feature which has not been named on the omcial program— namely, an Aoglo-American navalidisplay. 1 believe Great Britain will co<operate in sending & number of ships to Chicago. “Th 188 president and the king of Bel~ glum are both sportsmen and havé indicated their most hearty desire to make the Chi- CAgC games a great success. We are confi- dent that such a sport-loving country as England will help us heartly. 4 lound Sir Thomas Lipton thoroughly in accord with any effort to promote interna- tional sport. He has sald many things to Judge Payne and myselt which courtesy pre- vents mé mentioning, but you may depend on him in'his effort to capture the America’s cup and 'en interest in the Chicago sames.” “In planning Sir Thomas Lipton's new challenger for the America’s cup Mr, Fife has introduced many unexpected features. His experiences with recent challengers have made him distrustf! of new metals a lloys and He ha: ®lecided to drop them. Consequently the contract which the Dennys bave In hand provides A for the bullding of a cup racer wholly of steel. The frames to be of bulbed angle steel and the plating will be thin plates of nickel steel. The Dennys' experimental tank has been used, but the experiments have not been allowed, as previously, to dominate the model. The latter will be prepared at Fairlie, principally from knowl- edge of the faults and conditions which the Friday . Friday (Accompanied by Mr. Channing Ellery.) designer recognized in the first Lipton challenger. This completed model when tested may be found satisfactory and no alterations may be made. This is directly opposite to Mr.' Watson's methods with Shamrock II, which' was evolved entirely from tank experiments.” Mr. Fife declines to discuss the matter, but has sald that with his knowledge of the faults of Shamrock 'l he was confident he could produce & boat fifteen minutes faster over the cup course. CONFERING WITH THE BOERS They Will Ask of Cham- berlan, LONDON, Sept. 5.—~While 1t is firmly be- lieved that Colonial Secretary Chamberlaim has declined any conference with the Boer generals on the basis of & re-discusston of the terms of pemce, fact ‘that Lord Kitchener has been especlally summoned to Attend is regarded as an assurance that the conference of today will mot be entirely negatory. Many unauthorized versions of the further demands of the Boer gemerals are current. The polnts most llkely to be discussed are the questions of repatriation and the admis- slon of the Boers to representation in legls- lative and executive councils. - It ia' prob- able aleo that the Boers will. seek an In- creage in the amount of the grant for re. bullding farms and some concessions in the questions of education and language. According to the Daily Mall, the, generals will ask that full clvil rights and autonomy be granted within two years from the signa- ture of peace, on the plea that otherwise the pastoral Boers would find themselves swamped by the industrial and mining population.

While it is admitted on all sides that the present quarters are not suitable, there seems {0 be no way in which the city can at this time make a change. For years past the city has paid to the hospital asso- clation the sum of $25 a month to assist in the rent. The rest of the maintenance was derived from public subscriptions. Now that there Is no response to the pub- lle demand and the recent entertainment was practically a failure, the hospital women assert that it will be necessary for the city to provide more money or else the institution will close. As the big institutions, which include the packing houses and the railroads, did not seem to take any interest in the concern, it 1s poesible that the bullding may be closed. Local packing house manggers sert that when anyone in their employ 1s Injured they prefer sending him to Omaha for treatment, as it is asserted that the accommodations are better. Will Finish Soon. Frank Kavan is working hard to com- plete the annex to the high school bullding and he figures that he will be through DUt October 1. This will give three rooms for the use of the schools in the central part of the city. Hawthorne addition will be completed in two weeks, but it will be #0 that the rooms can be used in about three days. Hawley Here Again. Bert Hawley, formerly manager for the American District Telegraph company in this city, is here for a day or two, en- route from Denver to New York City. Mr. Hawley went west on account of {ll health and secured a lucrative position with the Western Union company. He has been pro- moted and will now take a responsible pos{- ‘ton with the Western Union in the east. Hawley's friends here are congratulating him on his promotion. Want Better Service. Members of the East Side Improvement club want better service on the Missourl avenue line. There is now twenty-minute service, with two cars in operation, but are no conductors on the cars. It is erted by members of the club that the company promised better accommodations and better time on the line. This has not been granted and & protest is to be made, In addition to this the company agreed to extend the Thirteenth street 1i as to conmect with the Missourl avenue -line. ‘This has not been done, hence the coms plaints. Numbering Houwes. Mail carriers and others who are called to all parts of the city make the com- plaint that house numbfrs are few and far between.

Loading Gangs Proteat. The loading gangs at the South Omaha packing houses represented that they had a grievance yesterday noon and there was prospects of a strike, but as soon as the matter was presented to the managers of the houses the men were given satisfaction and they all went back to work just as soon a8 an agreement was reached. It is under- stood that there will be a raise in the pay of all of the packing house employes soon. Bullding an Elevator. A plledriver 1s at work at the east gate of the stock yards property driving piles the erection of an elevator. About 100 plies will have to be driven for a founda- tion for the proposed bullding. The ele- vator will hold in the neighborhood of. 30,000 bushels of corn. As the elevator is on trackage it is estimated that the corn needed for use in the yards ¢an be handled with less cost by comstructing an elevator than by hauling it. Better Jail Accommodations.
