THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, NO VEMBER 24, 1903. LOW RATES T0 GULF PORTS issouri Pacific Places Omaha on Equality with Kansas Oity and 8t Louis EFFECTIVE ON FIRST DAY OF DECEMBER n Exchange Men Delighted, ki in Precisely What They Have Wanted to Perfect Scheme, “ L) The Missourl Pacific reduced rates to St Louls, Memphis, Galveston, Carondelet and other southern points, which places this city on the same footing in the shipment of wheat and coarse grains as Kansas City. Through the out- let now afforded by the gulf deep-water harbors this city will be able to market grain in all parts of the world In competi- tion with Kansas City and 8t. Louls, and this 1s exactly what grain men in this city have been trylng to secure, but until now with 1o hope of success, A message was received by 3. O. Philippl, assistant general frelght agent of the Mis- soutl Pacific which reads as follows “It Is our purpose to establish, effective December 1, the following proportional rates on grain and articles taking grain rates from Omaha to Bt. Louls, Carondelet and East 8t. Louls: Wheat, 9 cents; corn, § cents. Memphis, wheat, 14 cents; corn, 13 cents. Westego and Galveston, for ex- port, wheat, 19 cents; corn, 18 cents. “J. T. LINCOLN." The dispatch was dated in St. Louls yes- terday. rallway yesterday Meet the Demand. As was stated in an article which ap- peared in The Bee last week this is ex- actly what the grain men of this city have desired all along. When Kansas City busi- ness men raised the protest on account of the action in reducing rates taken by the Chicago Great Western, several of the grain dealers here stated that if all the roads would agree to put all the western markets on the same footing to both north- ern and southern points that would be all that could be asked. It has not been thought possible that the railroads would do this, A small amount of graln has been ex- ported from Omaha via the gulf ports in past years, but this year there have been no export shipments made that way. There has never been a through rate from this place to gulf ports and this is the first one which has ever been announced. Kan- sas City has been exporting large quanti- ties of grain via the gulf ports for years, but owing to the large difference in the vate in favor of that city it was impossible for us to compete, but the gateway s open now, and, of course, Omaha Is on the same footing. The rates heretofore In effect from this city to St. Louls were: Wheat, 14 cents and corn 13 cents; to Memphis, wheat 2 cents and corny 21 cents. The rate to Gal- veston and Westego has been the sum of several locals, and, as there has been no business from here, local railroad men are untamiliar with it It was sald yesterday that the Wa- besh and Burlington would announce the same rates today as those announced by the Missourl Pacific Monday. ‘Wattles is Delighted. “I heard the news of the new rate just & few minutes ago,” sald G. W. Wattles of the Omaha Grain exchange. “The mem- bers of the exchange will undoubtedly be pleased at this move, which throws open the Gulf ports to us. No pressuro has been ht to bear by anyone in Omaha to effect this change; we are going to get our &rain market without fighting any of the rallroads. It is undoubtedly to the interest of the Missouri Pacific to put in this low rate and 1 think it has wanted to do so for a long time. The fact that Omaha was establishing a grain market gave it a chance to make the change. The Missour! Pacific depends largely on grain for its freight to the south and It intends to get all of the grain and flour golng out of Omaha that it can. We are on the road to the Omaha grain market. We will make it a success. 'BETS FAVOR NEBRASKA TEAM Odds Give s That Corn it Omut 1 wkers WilL s at For the Nebraska-Illinols foot ball game wt Lincoln on Thanksgiving day a number of bets were mad yesterday, with the odds In favor of Nebraska. One bet of $100 was made that Nebraska would keep Its opponents from scoring. The Illinols team did not go back to Urbana after the game with Towa at Towa City last week, but has gone on to Lincoln in order to get acclimated and to become acquainted with the foot ball fleld and to do some light practice. A large delegation of rooters will go from this city, the railroads have made a special rate.

The defense will hold that there is no cer- tainty that the Northwestern was the rail- way from which the lad was ejected, and that in any event he was a trespasser, being one of u party of young boys of similar age who were stealing a ride on the train at the time, and that the boys had been previously driven from the train when it was stopped for that purpose at the east end of the bridge, and that they subse- quently climbed onto the train after it had started.

Secretary J. M. Guild of the local ex- change sald retrenchment seemed to be the question uppermost in the minds of the delegates and a number of recommenda- tions along this line were made. A committee was appointed to consider the suggestions for retrenchment and after a session lasting about seven hours made a report. The retrenchment recommenda- tions will be placed in the form of a report and a copy sent to each of the exchanges composing the membership of the national exchange. i Recommendation No. 1—The adoption of a rule providing that all traveling or resi- dent solicitors be abolished, eftective Jan- uary 1, 1904 Then the recommendation goes on and defines a solicitor in language not to be mistaken No. 2—That It is the sense of this meet- Ing that all telegraph and telephone mes- sages, both received and sent, except such as pertain to inquirfes instituted by mem- bers or the sending of telegrams quoting bona fide sales made the same day tele- grams or telephone messages are sent to the owner of such consignment, be received and sent at the cost of nonmembers, ef- fective January 1.

GOSSIP ON COMMISSION ROW Hordes of Turkeys Make District e Dur! ook Like Tenement Ho Epldemic. Commission row these days looks like the tenement district of a great city crowded with cases of influensa and other enzas. It Is the crates of turkeys. They are arriving from all directions by every express train. “There is a sort of family pride about it," sald a young gobbler from Kansas “People must have a turkey or lose cast Shortly before his death my uncle saw two poor colored women—wash women he took them to be—come into a market and deposit money, a dollar one and the other $2, an advance on the turkeys they meant to buy If they had to mortgage the wash- tub. Another case I heard of was that of A laborer who was only getting $5 a week, yet he was willing to pay $3.60 for one of us.” Turkeys are probably higher than they will bs Wednesday. They are certainly high, the tidy dressed stock resting now BARTLEY BONDSMEN CASE UP 01d Action Revived for Fifth Time in the Distriot Court. INVOLVED THIS TIME ALL SURETIES Judge Basxter's Chambers Crowded Audlence Witnesses Dif- ficulty in Getting o Jury to Act. The fifth trial in_the cases which have grown out of the defalcations of former State Treasurer Joseph €. Bartley called Dbefore Judge Baxter yesterday when suit was brought to recover on the bond given by Bartley, The bondsmen include W. A. Paxton, Thomas Swobe and Cadet Taylor, who were not made a party to the last action on the ground that they had not signed Bartley's bond until after it had been filed with the supreme court, and for the further fact that there had been no consideration. On these grounds an appeal was taken from the dis- was at a 2-cent figure, while the rotailers will sell it for a small and necessary advance, The trouble Is that everyone is holding off. They are certain the price will not get higher, and with the number of birds rush- Ing in there Is a good chance of a weaken- ing In figure. o the meat market men ars holding off. Last year the turkevg only reached an 18 to 19-cent mark. The birds are rather nice this year, fully average, al- though what would be named a first-class bird at Thanksgiving time is only a second- rater at Christmas. They are too poor to freeze and o the price s rather casily af- fected by a large cupply. The geese and ducks and chickens are feeling the high price of turkeys in a small advance in demand. The dressed ducks and geese are at a 11 and 12-cent wholesale mark and the ehickens are at the old price, Of the accessories to the Thanksgiving feast the oysters are likely to give the prin- cipal dig to the pockethook. They are higher than last year and will quite proba- bly be higher by Thanksgiving day. They are scarce because of storms, but there will be enough to fill all the menus. The cran- berries are fine and wholesale at from $0.50 to $11. The celery is now all from California and is of good quality and rea- sonable price. It fs perhaps not as highly bleached as could be wished. “THE OLD SCRATCH." How the Evil One Came to Be Popu- larly Known as “The 0ld Scratch.” One of the many famillar names of his satanic majesty is “The Old Scratch.” It fs undoubtedly due to the fact that scratch- ing is 8o disagreeable that people thought it no worse than the evil one. A scalp full of dandruff keeps one scratching all the time; Lot only disagreeable, but con- sidered very inelegant in polite soclety—as ft should be—because one ought to keep the scalp so clean that it would not itch. To cure the scalp of dandruff effectively, use Newbro's Herpicide. It kills the germ that creates the dandruff, which is preliminary to fallthg hair, and, finally, baldness. No other hair preparation killa the dandruft trict court, where it was heard by Judge Baxter, who s also hearing the case this time, The supreme court remanded the case back to the lower court on the sumption that all of the parties who had signed Bartley's bond should be made a party to the action for recovery, and that is the statu of the case just now. When the case was called the court room was crowded. The morning hours wer: devoted to securing a Jjury. Ivery manner of question that might have had any bearing upon the action, was asked the jurors and after it had seemed that certain jurors were to pass without a challenge, the fertile brains of the lawyers, for one side or the other, would call up some matter, apparently trivial in ftself, which would prove sufficient grounds for rejecting the juror. Hard to Get. Nearly every juror said he had formed some opinion of the case which it would require evidence to remove. Others voluntarily asked to be excused from sitting In this case upon these grounds. Only one Juror was found, who had not, at one time or another, read about the case in the newspapers ar talked about it with friends. Bach of these had formed their opinion. The jurors did ot think that a claim which was made by the state, was any more sacred than one which might be made by a private individuals, but the fact that this case had been of such general Interest, has made it certain that nearly everyone who might be qualified to sit as a juror has read about it and formed an opinion, Some of those who had formed opinions Jure trust operation. dollar bills.

CUPID COMMANDS THE SHIP Honeymoon Troopship Name Given to Shert by a Homol | Newwspaper, Honeymoon Troopship is the name given by the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser to the Sheridan, carrying the Twenty-second regiment to Manila. In addition to giving a column to the record of the regiment, which seems to be popular in the lslands, the paper says: Famous in war and famous in love is the proud record of the Twenty.second United tates infantry, which arrived yesterday from Ban Franclsco on the army transport Sheridan, enroute to its former battle rounds in the Philippines. The Twenty- second infantry has gained an enviable record for bravery on the battleflelds of Cuba and Lugon, but at last was van- quished by Dan Cupid with a bow and uiver full of arrows. Upon the transport’s leck this voyage are nine happy grooms among the officers and an equal number of blushing brides, fresh from the altar, and still shaking rice from_ their wedding finery, It =xpected by Honolulans that a pair of old arm shoes would be dangling from the mainmast truck, but they were disappointed. The voyage of the Sheridan from San Francisco to Honolulu was an eight days' round of bliss and happiness—at least for the brides and grooms—and by & stroke of good fortune there were plenty of se- cluded honeymoon corners "for ‘the nine young couples. It also happened that the first part of their honeymoon was during a moonlight week, and what more could they want. The motto which the young officer-grooms adopted was: Our arms your defense, Your arms our recompense, Fall in! Among the newly married couples are Captain_John R. R.

GREAT REFORMER AFTER DENNISON Vile Terms He Declarex His In- difference to Others und His Determination to Get His Man. In the hearing of the application for man- damus against the mayor and Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, brought at the instance of Tgnatius Jehovah Dunn, the ani. mus of that truly virtuous reformer was partly made apparent before Judge Estelle yesterday. Dunn has alleged in his rela- tion that gambling is being carried on in connection with the Diamond saloon on Douglas street, and wants the court to order the police board and ali other ci officlals to arrest, imprison, prosccute and otherwise dispose of certaln persons whom he alleges o be connected in a proprietary way with the saloon, Among these persons is Thomas Dennison. Witnesses introduced yesterday in- cluded Deputy Sheriff Sherry, who testified that he had been instructed during the sum- mer of 192 to serve all warrants sworn out by Dunn for the arrest of parties sus- pected of keeping gambling houses, Sherry swore that Dunn was told of a number of places against which evidence had been ob- tained, and that Dunn replfed that he was after Dennison; that he didn't care a d—n | about the other fellows; he was after that , using one of the vilest epithets known, and that he proposed to send him to the penitentiary; he was bent on breaking up the combination between Dennison, Moores and Rosewater, and that he would never quit until he had Moores and Dona- hue in the penitentiary along with Denni- son. In reference to the gambling at South Omaha, Dunn said he hoped that Berlin and Haley would get strong enough to put Dennison out of the business. Roach Corroborates It. Deputy Sheriff Roach testified to prac- tically the same state of fucts, He sald he had heard Dunn soy that he was paying all his expenses out of his own pocket. Just before election in 1%2 Dunn got hold of a clalm against Berlin & Haley of South Omaha and immediately began a campaign against them. Roach said to him: “Why don't you let these people alone until after election? They are solid in line for our friends. 1 know they are standing for Hitchcock and English.” Dunn replied that he didn’t care a d—n who they were for, he wouldn't stand for them any longer. Roach couldn't swear of his own knowl- edge that Dunn was paying his own ex- penses. He only knew what he had heard Dunn say. He had also heard Dunn use vile and abusive language in referring to Dennfson and had heard him say that he was after Dennison solely.
