'A‘“‘A-_" R, \_ments coniemplated w.ll have to be pos THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 29, 1903. ASK JUDGE TO CONTRIBUTE Cullivan Oalled Before Porulist Committes to Redeem His Pledge. KEEP WATCH ON GOVERNOR'S CHILDREN Tabitha Home Advisory Board Gets at Committes Back Which Re- (From a Btaft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Sept. 28.—(Special.)—Chlet Justice Bulllvan, candidate for the supreme bench on the fusion ticket, probably is not now “apprehensive” about the committes calling upon him for that $25 which he promised to pay toward helping out the party, becauss this afternoon the judge was called before the popullst committes that has just opened up headquarters in this city. If the populists fafled to get thy wherewlthal, the judge's friends believe he will eseape. It is supposed the populists called in the judge just for this purpose, as his report flled with the secretary of state of his expenses for securing the nomi- nation simply stated that he had spent nothing, but had promised to give $25 to the committee when it was called for and he was “apprehensive that it would be called for. Popull have their headquarters at 1328 O street and the democrats are grinding away at Omaha. Whether this division of the tusionists was due to the fact that two heads is better than one or whether it would produce more harmony around headquarters is not stated. Chairman Web- ber will have charge of the popullsts with J. R. Farris as secretary, while the demo- crats are looked after by C. B. Scott of Kearney, who did the business last year. The headquarters were opened in Omaha in an effort to keep the Jew of the party in line ‘there and the Lincoln end of the business was opened with the purpose of conducting the rest of the: campalgn from here. Lee Herdman went down with Judge Bullivan to see the boys and talk It up. Bome applications have come to the fusion- ista for speakers, but Judge Sulllvan said this morning ‘that it was not his purpose to do any talking, that he was bending his efforts to carry the republican Third ward of Columbus, In the meantime the republicans of this county are getting busy and have opened headquarters at the Lindell hotel, merely as a place to congregate, as there Is abso- lutely no hope of any fusions coming first under the wire here. Governor's Children Kept In The children of Governor and Mrs. Mickey are leading strenuous lives these days because thoy are their parents’ chil- dren. Since the attempt was made to kid- nap one of them last week none of the children are permitted to leave the yard after dark and the young ones are kept under close watch al: day. Governor Mickey is firmly of the opinion that it was a real attempt at kidnaping and he has im- plicit faith in the story of the trusty at the penitentiary that the plot was hatched there. This trusty has only a short time to serve and therefore would have no ob- Ject In securing the good will of the gov- ernor by telling such a story. The police are at work on the case and they belleve they have a clue that might lead to an arrest. They say that the man who carrled the child away had a rig hitched in the neighborhood and that they know from what livery stable it was hired. They have a descriptiori of this man, but whether they intend to arrest him or ‘whether he s In town they wil not say. The children are unable to give an accurate descripiion of the man. X Def Tabitha Home. The special advisory board that assisted the City Charity assoctation in making its investigation of the 7abitha home today attacked the report of the commiitee. Th s board consists of Dr. Balley, who for fit- teen years has been the home physician; Rev. R. A. White a dally visitor at the bome, and & bookkeeper. The reply of this board to the report of the investigat- ing committes takes exceptions to the claim that the insitution 18 not up to the stand- ard of charitable homes and poinis out many improvements that have been mace recently In the house and|its conduct. It charges also’ that the offensive part of tife committee repart, relating to the food supply, was ordered cut out by the presi- dent of the Investigating committee, but for some reason was not cut out. The re- port also states that many other improve- poned because of the Interference of the charity association. The charge that cheap help is employed 1s resented. The help is furnished by chil- dren who have grown up In the home, and 1t s claimed this is more loyal and eflic ent than any that could be procured. A dsulal is entered to the charge that the inmates are sometimes scantily clothed. A large storercom with plenty of clothing was shown the members of the committee. Dr. Balley says the sanitation of the home is above the average of such institu- tions, and the conclusion of the committee to the contrary Is warmly attacked. The cost of medidines is but 9 cents per capita, and there has been but one death during the year—a baby, brought there in a bad state of health. The committee was made aware of all these facts, but ignored them. ‘The charge that the school work is neg- lected s vigorously controverted. School is in session most of the year and none of school age are kept out continuous.y. Evenings are spent in study and well qual- ifled teachers employed. There are no more obedient and tiactable children, the com- mittee asserts, than can be found here, and the report to the contrary is viger- ously assalled. It is based, it is sald, on the stories of discharged employes who could not maintain discipline. The asser- tion is made that this man Wiese often left the children's backs bleody and to this day some of them carry his marks. They did not report this treatment to the super- intendent because they were not tattiers and it was some time before the head of the home was aware of it. Then it was promptly suppressed. This reign of terror did ot exist before he came, it is claimed, and has not existed since. The Investigating committee is rebuked because It had not a word of protest against Wiese's tale of going into a young ‘woman's sleeping apartment, upsetting her Talking about Sarsaparilla—Ever hear of any other than Ayer’s? tsarse: bed And flogging her in her night clothes. It Is asserted he was the only cruel em- ploye ever on the place. No Chance for Immorality. Tt 1s insisted that a sufclent apology for the sianderous statement about the lack of wateh to prevent immorality in the dormitories could not be made, There are five adult supervisors. The boys' and girls’ dormitories are on different floors, and as twenty-five are in each the oppor- tunity for immorality is practically none at all. No boy ‘over 14 is held if he desires to €0, and children are placed out with great care. Other parts of the report are an- swered In similar style. All moneys re- cetved are accounted for. The demand was made that Mr. Heiner do away with the old board and substitute a new one, the selections to be made with his assistance, This Is declared to be so unjust and beside the fact that it 1s easy to see a sinister motive. There can be no doubt, it is asserted, that the charity organization de- red to control the home. In conelusion it 1s clalmed the committee made no writ- ten charges upon which evidence might be adduced, that there was extreme preju- dice when the Investigation was begun, that hearsay evidence was admitted, that none of the evidence was read to the man- agers, as promised, that it refused to ex- amine witnesses for the home. It is as- serted the committee fs practically ignorant of the home, that they belleved its enemies and that one told Mr. and Mrs. Helne: ‘We don't belleve you folks out here.' Justice frofn such a committes was Im- possible. Minin Deal at Home. The latest in financial affairs came to light in police court this morning when it became known that a gigantic financial scheme was on foot at the Home of the Friendiess to corner a certaln amount of mining stock t the end that the inmates might get rich quick. From the meager Information that eome forth it appears that Miss Caroline Blodgett, an Inmate of the home, was the head and front of the corporation anl as fast as the inmates got their hands on the shekels they wers to deposit them with her and when they got enough on deposit she was to turn over to them the mining stock. Mrs. Ragelin, a blind autoharpist, in- vested $37 in stock, and then incidentally had Miss Blodgett arrested for taking $4 from her purse, After this arrest the blihd woman saw a light and she talked about the mining deal and wondered why she falled to get her stock certificate. She dismissed the $4 deal and was told that she had fafled to pay in a sufclent amount of money to get her stock. All parties quit good friend: Federal Building Plans, All Lincoln s rejoicing today because an- other step has been taken in the direction of that new postoffice. Custodlan L. L. Lindsey of the government bullding re- celved this morning the plans of the bulld- ing from J. L. Taylor, the supervising architect. The new structure will be erected at Tenth and P street, and will face Tenth street. The plans recelved merly cover the floor space and give no idea of the outward appearance of the building. The plans were changed slightly by Mr. Lindsey, and will be returned to Washing- ton tomorrow. The plans apparently contemplate a bulld- Ing 0x156 feet, outside dimensions. They are so drawn that they clearly indicate that the greater frontage will be on Tenth stroet. The only other corner they would fit would be Ninth and P streets, but this arrangement would throw the side entrance opposite the Lincoln hotel, and it is not thought this was in contemplation. Buying Up Milk Rout The Milk trust recently organized in this clty with a view it Is claimed, of supplying tke people with pure milk, is gradually gob- bling up the little dealers, and In a short time It {s expected all the little dealers will Dbe out of business. It is sald today-that ten of the smaller fry had sold out, and that the organization had made contracts with the farmers who had supplied the lit- e dealers. /The contract specifies that those selling out rhall not cnter the milk business {nside of two years. It Is reported that one who had sold out to the trust had already made arrangements whereby he was to go Into partnership with another dealer, and that war with the trust would be on shortly. File Corporate Articles. The Barber Asphalt company of Wash- ington, this morning paid to.the secretary of state 339150 to fMe its articles of incor- poration. The original articles were flled in Virginia last August, when the company was reorganized. The caplital stock 3,000,000 divided into 39,000 shares CONDUCTOR KILLED BY CARS NORFOLK, Neb., Sept. 28.—(Bpecial.)— Conductor Tom Belt of the Northwestern rallroad was killed under his train, No. 115, Sunday night. The accident occurred at Stuart, Neb.,, where the crew was switch- ing. The train was headed for Norfolk. Belt was standing upon a car which had been uncoupled. The engine started for- ward, the coupling pin fell back and caught the fastener. Belt was jolted off, fell be- tween the cars and across the track. The wheels passed over his right leg and he sustained internal injuries from which he died shortly after. A special train was run from Norfolk, carrying Dr. P. H. Salter, Buperintendent C. H. Reynolds and the wife of Belt, but he was dead when the train arrived. B2lt had been on the line for twelve years and was 53 years old. The train was @ regular one and he had run it many times.

He lert for Lincoln on the first train, where he was apprehended. He had spent the money.

The transfer of Church Howe, known from one end of Nebraska to the other, from the position of United States consul at Sheffleld, England, to that of consul- general at Antwerp, called for a good deal of comment in the Shefield papers. From the tone of these comments it is evident that In his three years' stay in Sheffield the Nebraskan has made many friends among the English who join In congratu- lating him up his promotion. This is taken from the news columns of the Sheffeld Dally Independent: The rumor which has gained currency during the past few days that Major Church Howe, who for three years has held the position of American consul in Shef- field, was shortly to leave the city, turns out to be only too accurate, as the major yesterday recelved official mnotification of his promotion to the consul-generalship of Antwerp. The news wil be recelved with considerable regret by the large circle of eopie with whom his duties have brought im into contact, but at the same time liearty congratulations will be extended to him on his very substantial preferment. Up to the present time political influence has had its weight in the appointment of Americans to consular positions, just as is the case in European countries, but Presi dent Roosevelt has recently signified his intention of reorganizing the consular serv- ice, weeding out the unsuitable men and promoting to the higher positions those who had_done good work as consuls. Major Church Howe's fine record in Sheffield has shown that he possesses all the qualities secessary to his position, and it is a strong ibute to the esteem in which he is hed by his government that under the new regime he should haye been promoted to #0 important a post as that which has been rendered vacant by death at Antwerp. The conrul-generalship of that city ranks in- ferlor to those of London, Parls and Berlin only, and it will readily be realized that the advance is a very big one. Until he recelves his papers the major will not know the date on which he wiil leave Shef- fleld for the sphere of his new dutles, but he has recelved intimation that he is to be succeeded here by Mr. Charles N. Dan- fels of Connecticut. Major Church Howe, who comes from Au- burn, Neb., has now been six years in the consular service. His earlier days were spent in the west, where he devoted himself to rafiroad bullding, farming and the like. It was after his retirement from business that President McKinley offered him the post of consul at Ealermo. Italy. He was here from 1897 to 190, during the time of the Spanish-American war. Leaving the charms of Italy behind, he accepted the promotion offered him in ‘the Shefield ap- intment. and he commenced his dutles ere on October 1, 1900. The relations at that time existing between Sheffield manu- facturers and the American government were not all that could be desired.” There was friction. and the major had to set to work to subdue it. He succeeded in his endeay- ors, and today everything runs perfectly smooth and without the least trouble. The exports from Sheffield to the United States have increased very largely, the exports of unmanufactured steel last year showing a remarkable advance. To bring this about the major had to entirely change the man- ner of doing business; he tried to give the people a business administration, to treat them as business men, and to see that his pleasant for the manufacturers shippin, the states was possible. The result been more than satisfactory, for without doing the slightest thing detrimental to the Gertain_the peop us in wishing h happiness in hi bility and hone The Telegraph says in its news column: ‘We understand that Major Church How who_has been United States conkul new sphere of respo Antwerp, 'an appointment tinction, ranking very high In the State’ consular service.
