NEW YORK Oommittes from Brotherhood Hare to Con- fer with Union Pacifi STRIKERS' RELATION TO PENSION PLANS Question as te Whether 014 8! Now om Strike Will Come for Bemefita Under U Pacific’'s Scheme. Negotiations between the Union Pacific and its engineers through the grievance committee of the latter are still pending, nothing definite in the way of adjusting differences having been accomplished. Wil- llam Hockenberger of Denver, chairman of the committee from the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers, and Ralph Robertson of Cheyenne, another member of the com- mittee, have an appointment with Superin- tendent ot Transportation Buckingham for 10:30 Sunday morning, when some headway toward a settlement of affairs is expected. The committeemen came to Omaha over a week ago to confer with the officfals, but Mr. Buckingham being out of the city they returned to their homes until after Thanks- giving. Mr. Hockenberger arrived in the city yesterday morning, but as the train on which Mr. Robertson was coming was greatly delayed no conference could be held yesterday as was planned. The engineers are conservative in allud- ing to the affairs which they are here to have adjusted, yet they express no doubt at all as to the outcome. The general ten- dency of the rallroads over the country to accede to whatever demands their employes make and the present labor complication which the Union Pacific has on its hands, they think, justifies them in the sangulne hope of success. Question About Pensio i Relating to the pension system for its employes which the Union Pacific will adopt the first of the year, as was pub- lished Friday in The Bee, the question has arisen, “Will any of the old shopmen who are now out on a strike be eligible to the benefits of this system should they re- turn to work for the company?”’ Scores of these men have been in the service of the Unfon Pacific for ten years or more and many of them are nearing their three score years and ten. On the Illinols Central and Northwestern leaves of absence or suspensions from work do not deprive men otherwise eligible from the benefits of the pension department. The Northwestern and the Ililnois Central have pension systems practically identical, the Northwestern having placed its in effect after the Pennsylvania and prior to the Central, and the supposition is that the Unlon Pacific has patterned its system after those of the Northwestern and Illinois Cen- tral. It is the genmeral opinion, therefore, that the strike will have no effect upon the eligibility of the men under this system. Although the Union Pacific will put the system into effect January 1, President Burt still declines to give out any formal statement of the detalls. Mid-Winter Hollday Rates. The Burlington announces its mid-winter hollday rates of one-halt fare for points within 200 miles of selling distance, the dates of sale to be December 24, 25, 31 and January 1.

WARM TIME IN COURT ROOM Parties to Sult Wage Heated Conmtro- versy and J Has to Interfere. e Vinsonhaler There was so lively and heated an ex- change of personalities and accusations in his court yesterday that Judge Vinson- haler of the county bench had to rap vig- orpusly for order and bring up with a short tura the principals in the controversy. Louis Harris, recent purchaser of prem- ises on Capitol avenue between Ninth and Tenth streets, was successful the other day in his forcible entry and detainer proceed- ings against Parke Godwin, lessee, and Charles Brown, sub-lessee. Godwin de- cided to appeal and submitted as sureties on his appeal bond Jacob Katleman and Matilda Brown. Harris' lawyer asked that the bond be not approved until the security of the suretles could be investigated by them. The request was granted and yes- terday Harris reported that Katleman was satisfactory, but about that time Katleman himself appeared and asked to be relieved from the bond, saying he had not fully un- derstood how extensive were the responsi- bilities incurred, as he had not thought of how high the case might be carried nor how long deferred, with the rent piling up. It was then that the storm broke, for God- win made the accusation openly that Katle- man had been operated on in the plaintif's interests and the remark was resented with vigor. Katleman was finally released. EVADING THE PROHIBITIVE TAX Some Oleomargarine Makers Are Sell- ing Their Product as Coun try Butter. Captain Wheelock, special agent of the internal revenue offi has returned from a trip to Denver. He saye that the oleo- margarine makers are giving the depart- ment considerable trouble in the mountain city and that two ilicit factories have been unearthed at that place. They have been making colored oleo without paying the tax of 10 cents a pound, and in one case went 80 far as to pack thelr product in crocks, place over them a plece of cloth after the manner of the dairy farmer and sell the goods as country butter. Other factories have pald the tax of one-quarter of 1 cent a pound on the uncolored product and transported the goods to another place, where it was colored and sold as butter. Government age! are very much loter- ested In the present law, which they say should be amended so that a person en- gaged in selling butter should mot be per- mitted to take out & license to sell oleo- margarine. WILL OPEN DUNDEE ROADWAY ty Makes that Di of the Tuchek-Conmoyer Controversy. The county commissioners finally got to- gether on the Tuchek-Connoyer road con- troversy yesterday and disposed of the matter by deciding to open road 160 D of Dundee precinet, from Hamilton to Dodge streets, & di & mile. Lew Hill was before the board seeking & partial refund on the assessment made against him last spring on a basis of $2,500, assessed valuation. He was unsuccessful, but expressed a profound gratitude for the Indulgence of the board B listening to him. The board voted to allew T. F. Balfe $1,500 on his bill of $3.960 for plumbing at the county farm. O'Keeffe registered » negative ballot. At the board’s chambers yesterday morn- of the charity committee, but Connolly per- mitted the other members of the board to “dip 1n" to the extent of taking an ear aplece for good luck. IMPORTERS SAVE BIG AMOUNT Duty on Tea in Bond Here Would to Many Thou D The first week in January will find the office of the surveyor of customs at Omaba with more work on hand than has ever | been seen at the office, for then will come the withdrawal of the tea from bond and ite shipment to various parts of the terri- tory covered by the port of Omaha. At the present time there are 8,000 packages of tea stored in the warehouse and there are enroute 3,000 packages, which will reach here during the month of December. The duty on this tea at the present time would be $77,000, it being estimated that the total storage fs 770,000 pounds. The tea in bond is the property of the Omaha wholesale grocers and of two Chi cago tea houses which have distributing houses in this city. Much of it, however, is already consigned to retall dealers in the states of lowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Kapsas and Wyoming. It s all ready for distribution and is only held until January 1 because at that time the duty on tea will be removed and the $77,000 will be saved to the Importing houses. Jobbers say there will be no decrease in the price of tea corresponding to the amount saved by the importers In the abolition of tariff duties. They account for this by saying that the importers calcu- lated upon the removal of the tariff in making thelr purchases and pald more for thelr goods, thus securing a higher grade, and some of the low grades of tea pur- chased during the time the tarlff wae op- erative will not be seen upon this market in the future.

Folwell, who appears before the Omaha University extension cen- ter in the First Congregational church Tuesday evening In the delivery of the tenth lecture of the series on ‘Modern Social Problems,” is professor of political sclence in the University of Minnesota.

Augustson, who was some seven weeks ago adjudged insane and committed to the asylum at Lincoln, but recently made his escape from that Institution and returned to this city. He left the asylum several days ago and Friday night arrived at his former home at Twentieth and Castellar streets. The police were notified of his arrival and yesterday Sergeant Hudson and officers Fahey and Jackson went after him. He saw the officers coming and tried to escape them, but after a chase of six blocks was overtaken. Augustson, who was once connected with the police department himself, has given the police a great deal of trcuble in the past and not long ago filed charges against one of the officers who had arrested him, in which he alleged undue violence on the part of the officer.
