CHARLEY LANE ON THE WARPATH | Union Pacific 1s Snubbed by the Gove ernor, Who Names Two Burling- ton Ofcials on His Mill- tary Staff, The surrender of Colonel Charles E Fanning to Governor Shallenberger, cause ho feared courtymartial for ten dering his resignation as a colonel on the | P!“Nlll\'l"’ staff at a time when the gov- ernor was under fire and In serious dan- ger, has revived the talk of the “war of the colonels.” It Is charged that the governor has cer- tainly played into the hands of the Burling- and Colonel Spens of that railroad, while the Union Pacific and the other roads are not officially represented on the staff. Should the fact that Colonel Spens is a | member of the t, give him precedence before the state rallway Charlle Lane and other freight agents, the matter of the slight of the other roads might prove serious. Commissioner Clarke has expressed his surprise at the action of the governor In giving the Burlington the inside track, in a letter to Charlle Lane, to which the latter replied in part, at follows: “For the present shall have to content myself with the bulk of the beer from this terminal going to points competitive with the Burlington, which the brewers say we shall have until Spens sends his commission back. Tatored by Cndet. “Conrad is now being tutored by a high school cadet on the Omaha campus—he is| well up on all other tectics, He fs also brushing up on sword fencing; his back vatd fence vaulting of the past will serve him to small purpose in this new role. He has started his fencing drill with a one- edged saber, knowing that hé has got to stand behind it and take no chances on the back stroke; he has never known what the word ‘halt’ meant before, o there will be some good to come out of Israel. “On long marghes he probably will want to call a hack; bn dress parade events he will be found at the ladies’ entrance. Sum- mer is coming on and I shall be In white duck trousers, blue sash, open work bodice; Spens will be sweltering In blue melton. ten-button ladened ccat, with heavy death- dealing trappings and gold brald, wearing a war bonnet. “Springfield rifles are on sale for $.50 per and a dollar more buys a tripod on which he can rest the end of it; he will need a mask to pull down over his face and eyes when he is on the firing line. He will also need a machinist's vice to hold the gun on long range shots. “If the governor leaves details to Spens, there will be magnificent distances spaced up between the firing lines. Feel very sate In the assertion that the rivers of blood shed will not be navigable and the loss of life will be down to the minimum of old classiffeation No. 41. “Finally, we of the Unlon Pacific for some time to ccme will be known as a “Plain Clothes Brigade.’ " NEWS OF THE ARMY GIRCLE Boards of Officers Detailed to the Va- rions Posts to Examine Gunners, Hoards of officers have been detafled by orders from Department of the Missourd headquarters to the several military posis to examine gunners for the United States field artillery.

PROBLEM FOR AMERICAN POLICE Secrecy anW| the Cohesive Power of Plunder k«-n- Members Directs Weapons —— How They Work Abroad. The assassination of Lieutenant Petrosino of the New York police in Palermo, Siellly, a month ugo, and the murder of a Chicago | &rocer who would not submit to blackmall, are the latest additions to the bloody record of Itallan criminal organisatiohs operating on both sides of the ocean. Their organiza- tions are grouped in the country and com- monly known as the Black Hand, a name derived from the “black hand" symbol ac- companying the extortion letters sent by members to their victims. The trial of crime corresponds with the distribution of Meditorranean immigrants, but is most conspletous in the large citles and in the coal mining regions of Pennsylvania. The | problem of exterminating these organized criminals is the most serious one confront- ing the police of this country. The secrecy which organization gives, the protection organization affords, the racial instinct strengthened by fear, are difficulties which for the moment seom almost insurmount- able to the authorities. A correspondent of the New York Times, writing from Naples shortly after the as- sassination of Petrosino, throws needed light on the methods of the organizations, where and how they operate. He says, In part: Stirred By a Crime, The murder of Petrosino at alermo has stirred Ttaly no loss deeply than it has Ameriea, and undoubtedly the brave fel- low's martyrdom will bring ahout radical changes that years of argument would | have been rowerless to effect. The national pride has been touched to the quick. Some such tragedy, some such open shame was needed to arouse public Indignation, for In this country the criminal secret so- cletles are of such ancient date and are so thoroughly a part of the soclal order in such cities as Naples and Palermo that the ge citizen has come to think very little about them. Now they have become In this dramatic way an international ques- tion, and it s certain that changes will promptly be made not only in the emigra- | tion laws but also in regard to the some- | what too lenient treatment of criminals. On the other hand, the average American, tgnorant of the cnuses that gave power to these strange organizations and of the con- ditions that serve to keep them influential. | has had his eyes onened. Only a few yenrs | ago there was @ Aisposition to treat as ex- | aggerated and more or less fabulous the talas of the far-reaching and well, though 1ooely, organized socleties that hold south- | ern Ttaly and Stefly In thelr grip. Tt wns a eapital mistake to Aesplse one's enemy The Black Hand. whether it be a branch of the Mafia and Camorra or mot, fs cer- tainly made up of ex-members of thess redoubtable socletfes and 1A not from the tirst lack efther intellivence or experjence. ‘Worst of AlL The situation created by the attempt to establish in America the facsimile of the extraordinary criminal organizations of this country is grave enough, for it may bo sald with confidencé that the Black Hand Is &n even more dangerous and law- less associatton than the older two. The Mafla and Camorra are bad enough, fn all consclence, but they have existed so long that their proceedings have come to have a regularity on which everybody can count. They are a part of dally lfe, and they have actually come to fill certain functions that are at times useful. The Black Hand, on the contrary, fs with- out even this small redeeming feature, and has none of the traditions which once In a while check the criminal socleties here. It 1s, happily, true, that there is not fin America sufficient sofl of ignorance and helplessness to bring so monstrous a growth to the perfection It has attained here through centuries of bad government, when the law afforded hardly a shadow of pro- avy it out will be no easy matter. Petrosino will not be the only martyr the undertak- ing will claim. It is just as well to clear the situation by understanding the sys- tems on which the Black Hand is based, and which, no doubt, is ready to co-operate with It as may be necessary. To begin with, the Mafia and Camorra, in spite of honest and heroic efforts on the part of the police, aré supreme In southern Italy and Sicily. No living soul escapes their watchfulness. They have spies every- where, In every rank of life. They know the coming and golng of everybody. One live for years In southern Ttaly with- out ever suspecting such a state of affairs and then suddenly, perhaps In some viny trival way, it comes to one with a shock that every actlon is known to them. They weave a net-work over the whole country. Crime Is an absolute monopoly. Political Power. Politically their power Is immense.
