THE OMAHA DA ILY CUDARY IS BRANCHING 0UT| Packing Maznate Ferm:@u Ceatrol of Ne- braske-lowa Oreamery Company. ONE OF LARGEST CONCERNS OF ITS KIND Indieations That It Is the Intention to Compete with Armonr and Swire This Field Also, The report, which has been current business men during the t few ect that the Cudaiy Pack ing company has acquired ownership of the Nebraska-lowa Creamery company, seems to be true. Joseph Blum has been placed In control of the business, with an assistant, as manager for the Cudahy peo- ple. Bince the assumption of the manage- ment by Mr. Blum, a few days ago, R. A Btewart, who under the old management ‘was treasurer, has taken but little interest in the affairs of the concern, although his name stili stands on the stationery in the same capacity. As Edward A. Cudahy was absent from the city last night, and none of his employes sevmed to be familiar with the transaction whereby he secured eon- trol of the busincss, none of the pariicu- lars of the purchase could be learne The Nebraska-lowa Creamery company was first organized by J. J. King at West Point, Neb. Several years ago the head quarters were removed to this city, where they have been since. From a small be- ginning the business has grown to large proportions. The output at the present time amounts to about $2,600 per day aver- age. Fifty people are employed, and up- wards of twenty milk stations are in ope- ration. Ten route Wagons are run in this city. When the com ny moved into the quarters which it occuples at the present time, at 501 to W7 South Tenth street, the officers were J. J. King, president; R. A. Btewart, treasurer, and ¥. N. Stevenson, secretary and manager. Mr. Steventon disposed of his interest in the concern on June 1, and was succeeded in his duties by C. L. Porter. Mr. King still retains his title as preeident of tho company, but it 18 understood that his resignation will soon be handed in. f The new bullding which the company oc- cuples, and which was erected especlally for it sbout one year ago, Is one of the finest of its kind in the country. It was bullt especially for the purpose, under the supervision of Mr. Stevenson, who at the time held the position of secretary.

TELLS OF THE PEKING SIEGE Dr. Frank Gamewell Dellvers esting Leeture at Kountse ter- Secretary Willis of the Young Men's Christian association presented John F. Goucher, president of the Women's Col- lege of Baltimore, who, after a few re- marks regarding the history of the man, introduced Dr. Frank D. Gamewell at Kountze Memorlal church Sunday after- noon. Dr. Gamewell was acting as mis- slonary in Peking at the time of the siege of the foreign legations in that city by the Boxers in 1000, and he delivered a very interesting address upon the subject of the siege, relating many incidents which trans- pired during the fifty-six days that the little body of Christians was surrounded by a howling mob whose only thought was t put them to death. Dr. Gamewell said “That the storm aid not come without warning. There had been indications of approaching trouble all dur- ing the spring of 180, and some mission- aries came a distance of 400 miles to find shelter, during the outbreak, with thelr friends in Peking. A trlp of this distance in Ching,” said Dr. Gamewell, “is not to be as lightly considered as one of the same distance in America, for it has to be made in a Chinese cart and not in a Pullman slesper.” The speaker told of the letter which was recelved by Minister Conger from the Chinese forelgn: office which instructed all forelgners to leave the country within twenty-four hours, and how no attention was pald to the communication. He then entered into an Interesting description of the breaking of the storm and the fiight of the Christlans from their missions to the English legation, of the nights and days spent In erecting fortifications about the legations for self-protection. The for- tifications were almost entirely constructed under the fire of the enemy. The speaker sald “That it was the general supposition in this country that the Boxers possessed no better weapons than bows and’ arrows, or flintlock muskets, but this supposition was wrong,” and in proof of his assertion he exhibited a case of Mauser cartridges which he secured from one of the enemy during the siege. ‘“This was not all,” he stated. “There were 2,800 Krupp shells fired into and over the fortifications during the outbrea Dr. Gamewell described the death of Baron von Kettler, and the fight which occurred at the time he was killed. He sald “that all the Christlans belleved during the slege that the enemy would soon exhaust their supply of am- munition, but after the arrival of reliet a large number of cases of Mauser cart- ridges were captured, although the firing had been almost incessant during the fifty- six days which the slege continued." He told of the feelings of hoge which filled the breasts of the besieged when re- ports of relief came, and of how throug the tension of imagination these reports were frequent. In one Instance the English ambassador came down from a roof to re- port that he had seen the headlight of the English &hip Terrible, which had evi- dently been taken from the ship by a re- lief expedition to assist in finding the way at night, but it was several weeks after this report was circulated before the ex- pedition did actually arrive. The speaker sald that the sweetest sound which ever greeted human ears was when the firing Of the rellef party was heard in the dis tance, and they knew that help was at hand. He painted a graphic pleture of the entry of the soldiers into the legation, and did not forget to mention ‘hat a man in the American uniform was the first to set foot inside the enclosure.

It is sald that Groves was standing at the railroad station in Sioux Falls when he saw the woman he loved embraced and kissed by another man. He first upbraided her for faithlessness and, pleading in vain, resorted to whisky. After he got to Sioux City the liquor is #aid to have-brought the results and Groves was taken, imp and helpless, save for the abllity to scream at a tolerably high pitch, to a comfortable cell in the county Juil.

MUCH OF THIEVERY CHARGED UP TO THEM COhief Announces That All of This Class Must Leave the City Spend Thelr Time in the Jail, Within the last day or two the city has been filling up with vagrants and suspi- clous characters. Fourteen arrests were made yesterday by the police, every one being charged as a suspiclous character or a vagrant. The cause of this rald was the burglary at the grocery store of Philip Krause in Albright early Sunday morning. Until an involce is taken Mr. Krause does not know just how much he lost, but there was but little cash in the till when he closed up. Most of the goods takem con- sisted of tobacco, cigars and canned good The robbery is considered a daring one, as there is supposed to be a policeman in Albright day and night. Chief Briggs was considerably put out about the affair, and started in to round up every suspiclous character he could find, He sald that he would make every vagrant leave the city or else get a county jail sentence. For a time the city jall was empty, and the of- ficers had nothing to do. Within the last few days the city seems to be full of petty thieves, whom the police say are working thelr way south and east. The small num- ber of police officers on duty does not per- mit of a thorough patrolling of the city, as most of the night police congregate in the business district, Chief Briggs is greatly in favor of a pa- trol box system, and if this is installed by the city council he says that he will see to it that the patrolmen are compelled to remain on their beats during working hours and report to police headquarters at stated !ntervals. By this system the chief says that a great deal of petty thiev- ing in all parts of the city can be stopped. No Additional Packing Houwes. A prominent South Omaha packer said 10 & Bee reporter last night that there was no probability of any additional packing houses being opened here for some time. As for the report that an independent com- pany was going to start a small plant near Thirtleth and L streets, this packer said that there was absolutely no foundation for such a rumor. In the first place, there is no sanitary sewer at Thirtieth and L streets, apd, furthermore, there is no way in which connection with any sewer could be made. Another packer sald: “It's all 1dle talk. There is nothing in' the rumor.” Still another packer, who is in a position to know, sald that all talk of opening the Hammond plant at this time was foolish- ness, as nothing of the sort is contem- plated. The Hammond plant has been stripped of most of its machinery, and will need fmprovements costing thousands of dollars before it can be placed in service. With the falling oft In stock receipts at this time of the year the packing houses are not making any speclal improvements and are not branching out any. Council Meeting Tonight. The city council will meet tonight but there is nothing of importance on the slip 50 far. The ordinance extending the fran- chise of the Omaha Water company can- not be reported on until it has been pub- lished two weeks. As the ordinance has not been published the requisite length of time the judiclary committee will not make a report tonight. A few old bills may be allowed tonight on the overlap money. If these go through this evening the overlap will be paid and the city will be placed on a cash basis for the fiscal year which ends August 1, 1904 Looking for a Decision. Those Interested in the vacating ordi- nances are looking for a decision from Judge Dickinson today. A decision was ex- pected on Saturday but the court falled to hand down one. Many of the business men in the city are in favor of vacating the streets asked for as they will never be opened to traffic and might as well be used for raflroad tracks as to stand as they are, thirty feet above..the traveled roadway. It has been stated that with a declsion from the court the council will hold special sesslons and pass the vacating ordinance as soon as the law will permit it to do so. \ Dance Committees Named.
