I ORGANIZE FINANCIAL BOARD| Union Paoific Strikers Devise New Method for Handling Funds. PREPARE FOR ALL WINTER'S CONTEST Clremlar Letters Setting Forth Merits Ald Being Sent to All Labor Unlon Pacific strikers have devised a new method for the collection and distribution of funds. As the fight with the company proceeds this work fs gradually settling down to systematic routine. Convinced that thelr struggle will at least last through the winter, the strikers are en- deavoring to adopt none but endurable and practical plans for conducting their af- fairs. To this end a new jolnt board of'| financlal directors has been organized, with one member from each the machinists, blacksmiths and boiler makers. District Secretary S8amuel Grace of the machinists becomes chairman of this board, whose functions are to solieit ald from erganized labor throughout the country and di tribute this aid to all strikers over the Union Pacific system. Heretofore this work has been committed | largely to the separate unions in the vari- ous places along the road, but this method has not proven entirely satisfactory. These individual lodges collected and apportioned what money they could, but without any definite and regular system thelr work has rily been deficient. For the Omaha strikers a federated board of represent tives, composed of the various crafts in- volved in the strike, has taken care of the financial work to a large extent and ite efforts have been highly successful. But it 18 only a local body, which, however, will be continued in service in connection With the mew agencies being employed. Yesterday morning circular letters were sent out by the new allied board of finan- cial directors to every organized labor ubion in the United States, setting forth the merits of the strike here and appeal ing for help. Former appeals of this kind have been generously met and large r sults are expected from this gegeral ap- | Injunction Helps Strikers, Strikers stfll contend that |the Baldwin injunction is working to their advantage In large numbers of nonunion work- n the morning bulletin sent out to strikers over the Union Pacific the state- ment is made that “there have been about venty-five men leave the shops within the Nineteen of this number | are sald to have left Thursday.

The prospective increase is not so much on account of the increased consumption due to the decreased production of anthracite coal as it is to the fact that the rallroads are umable to move the coal from the mines. Dealers who have purchased from mines compara- tively near the city have had coal on the road ten days, where it has usually reached that time. The trouble is not only to secure cars, but to secure locomotives to move the cars after they are loaded. One road reaching Omaha bas now a hundred cars lying at the mines and cdnnot move tHem because of the !nability to secure engines. This condition is confined to no one road, but all of them find that their business has in- creased more rapidly than thelr facilities.

Bennett came to town Wednesday and | while seeing the sights imbibed too much of that which makes the legs wobbly and the senses vague. While in this condition he was accosted by an old friend who knew him in the good old days when Clear Lake was the center of commerce of the western world. The new friend consented to take Bennett to his room at a lodging house on Farnam strect. The stranger did so and not only undressed Bennett, but put him to bed and tucked the covers around him like mother used to do. And as Bennett mur- mured his thanks the stranger departed. Thursday morning Bennett discovered that $30 of his money and a gold watch had Aisappeared. The kind-hearted stranger bad left him $17, however. Bennett started for the police station to report and inquired the way from a man he met on the street. To this man Ben- nett told his story. And here was where Bennett made another mistake. The stranger advised Bennett not to go to the station. “Come with me,” he sald, [ know the man and I can get your money.” The two then went toward Council Bluffs. Walks Into Tall Weeds. Shortly after they left the tar they were met by a second man who was to pilot then to Bennett's friend. The three went across lots and finally wound up in a large patch of high weeds. “Now shell out the balance of that money,” commanded the two new friends. And Bennett “‘shelled.” Bennett then walked back to Omaha and yesterday reported his loss to the po- lice. Later Detectives Donohue and Sav- age arrested Abraham Love, who was identified by Bennett as the last man to touch him. Love refused to return to lowa without requisition papers and Bennett borrowed 25 cents from the desk sergeant to make the trip to the Bluffs to get out the paper: Callahan’s friend worked along the same line and showed that same generous spirit that Bemmett's first friend displayed. He volunteered to escort Callahan, who was Intoxicated, to his hotel. The out-of-town man eagerly accepted the offer and allowed the stranger to accompany him to his room him to bed. Yesterday Calla- han discovered that he had been robbed of $20, a watch and a ring. The good samari- tan had left about $8 in Callahan's pocket A description of the man was given te the police FORTY IN PRESIDENT'S PARTY ees In Nebraska Cities > | The programs sent to Senator Millard out- | lining the attend the recep- tion of President Roosevelt during his trip ceremonies to Name and Residence Louls Miller, Omaha.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—In his report to the secretary of the navy upon the com- bined operations between the army and | navy Admiral Higginson is most generous in bis distribution of praise among the officers of the squadron and especially does he commend Rear Admiral Coghlin for his very able and efficlent assistance. His lead- ing the squadron into Newport at night, through blinding searchlights and smoke | and against a strong current, is pronounced | to have been a brilliant plece of navigation, requiring a steady and undaunted nerve. Great credit is awarded to Captain Lyon of Olympla for his cable-cutting operations and to Captain Brownson of Alabama and Captain Manney of Massachusetts for their able work. In fact nearly all the squad- ron officers receive their share of praise in the admiral’s report, wherein fs noticed {the particular service which each ren- dered. Touching the operations themselves, Ad- miral Higginson says: The whole and only Intention was to de- velop, if possible, any weak poliis in the line of defenses established by the army, but whether we have uoue 80 or not re- mains to be decided by the Board of A bitration. The work has been arduois and ln‘!nfl. including much night navigation, and 1 cannot speak too highly of the way in which it has been carried out by the officers and men of the squadron. Value of Searchlights. The admiral comments strongly upon some of the lessons to be learned from the maneuvers. For instance, ho says: Much valuable knowledge in regard to the searchlights has been obtained during theso operations and the general opinion seems 10 be that they are not so effective as h been supposed. In ufirmnchln: position at night the searchlights would flash very often upon the ships, lightiug up smoke- stack and hull, so that large print could easily be read, and everyone supposed the ships had been discovered, but the search- lights would turn away and, evidently, the observers had not seen the vessels. rainy or misty weather the value of search- lights =, | think, decreased from 25 to 50 per cent. 1 had, unfortunately no opportunity to test the value of fog for running past bat- 1 therefore, obliged in run- past Fisher's island ‘and into Newport lect ciear nights, “army nights,” where ry chance was with the enemy, and 1 had little hope of a successful issue, but as my guiding motlve was to help' the army test their equipment rather than to gain points, I did not hesitate to take the losing side, One point in connection with the search- lights established was that 12 all other alds to navigation have been extinguished we have in the searchiights of the enemy & sufficlent guide for an approach to his | position. Experience Proves Inv: To those officers not in the the experlence of keeping ights has been crulsing at night without invaluable and has educated them to war conditions, and it is for this purpose, in my opinion, that these exercises should be con- tinued each year. ‘The naval militia in the squadron wa from Massachusetts, Connecticut and Ne | York, aad rendered good weryice and no doubt gained valuable knowledge of naval methods and work. To Lieutenant Com- mander Craven, in command of Alfleen, I am Indebted for his able and intelligent management of that vessel The work of the marines Is said to bave been of great value and their efficlency is sald to have been greatly Increased by their stay on shore. The army officer who acted as obsesver on board Alabama ez~ pressed himeelf as belng very much im- pressed by the efficient manner in which the men were handled in the advance skirmishers and the way they avalled the; selves of cover, keeping behind stone walls and other natural objects. The admiral states that he will in due course submit separate reports on the eleven features of the maneuvers under- taken by the fleet. HYMENEAL.
