SMALL FIRMS FOR BIC RATE Little Shippers Bay if Out-it Will Only Aid Centraligers. THEY OPPOSE M'VANN PROTEST National Association of Creamery Bute termakers Pleads that Present Frelght Sche Net Reducea by Col A hew element has been injected into the hearing before Speclal Examiner George N. Brown of the Interstate Commerce com- mission by the National Association of Creamery Butter Makers as intervenor, In whieh It asks that the rates now prevall- ing east of Chicago be not disturbed, contrary to the petition of the traffic bu- reay of the Omaha Commerclal club, ask- ing ‘a lower through and car lot rate from Omaha to the Atlantic seaboard. 8. B. Shilling of Chicago, secrotary of the National ~Assoctation of Creamery Buttermakers was the first witness In be- half of the Intervenors. He held that it the rate asked is given the centralizers of blg creameries or carlot shippers, the smaller shippers will be driven out of busi- ness, and furthér, If the present rates are disturbed it will serlously dlsturb the busi- ness of the butter and egs shippers. He maintained that if the carlot rate was re. Auced then the less-than-car-rate should be correspondingly reduced and unless this was done his association would antagonize the proposed reduction of the carlot and through rate. H. R. Wright, state dalry commissioner of Town, sided with the iritervenors and held that the bulk of the butter going to the eastern markets was made by the small_buttermakers and that a reduction of the prevailing rates would ba a detri tient to the smaller creameries and he was prepared to object to the proposed rate reduction unless it also applied to the smaller shippers. The large centralizing stations or plants, he held, had greatly ex- punded under the present rates, and he conténded theré was no gdod reason for a reduction of these rates, ‘dnd under the prevalling rates the big oentralizers had waxéi aud grown fai. He held, furih that the present rates and rallroad service was satisfactory to the smaller shippers and he hoped to see It continue that way. President J. J. Farrel of Carver, Minn., of the National Creamery and Buttermak- ors assoolation, also opposed the proposed reduction of the through and carlot rate, a8 it meant but another step In centraliza- tion, T B. J. McVann was recalled 'for a briet cross-examination by J. E..Kelby of the Burlington. He admitted that the packers, members of the Commercial club, protested verbally against the ‘use of the name of the Com- mercial club in a suit like this one, which might reflect upon ti 'The packers had not been asked, except in a joking wa. to join In this complaint, but they wei not formally asked to join In it. He aid not know why they did not join in the complaint, but it was evidently because they had not been asked. ‘With the conclusion of the cross-examina- |, tion of Mr. McVann, rested their case. The first witness for the defense was D. A. Dawson of Chicdgo, superintendent of the Star Union Liné. His testimony was in effect that np complaint had been filed to his knowledge regarding the ocarload rate from Chicdgo to eastern points. He explained at some length the relation of the carload and less than carload meth- ods of transportation, showing that the less than carload rates were generally more profitable to the transportation compani because the tonnage per car was greater, as a result of the combination of ship- ments, which in the aggregate exceeded the cariot minimum of 20,000 pounds from 4,000 to 6,000. " R. C. Ford of Chicago, tyaffic manager of the Illinols Central, testified along siml- lar lines, particularly -as relating to In- térvening ehipments over the Illinols line bewween Omaha and Chicago and other western and rorthwestern. - points. The hearing will be conoluded this aft noon, when the case will be taken under advisement 'by the Interstate Commerce comnilssion, with which the litigants will be required to flle records and briefs for the final adjudication of the case. Several minor cases for reparation for alleged excessive charges for frelght are yet to be heard by Examiner Brown and the commission probably will not conclude its work before Tuesday, the complainants Nobody Tooa Old to learn that the sure way to cure a cough or cold 1s with Dr. King's New Discovery.

Harris Just A Plain Passenger Former President of Burlington Travels as One and Wants to Be Known Thus, George, B. Harris, who recently retired as_president of the Burlington Route, now travels as an ordinary passehger. Saf urday morning he passed through Omaha en routs from Chicago to Lincoln, traveling In a sleeping car Instead of in his private Pullman palace of former days. “T'in jusi an ordinary passenger now,’ he sald to the station men at the Burling- ton depot, when he alighted from his train to get a whiff of fresh air and to greet somre of thesemployes. . “Don’t call me ‘president, eithér,” he sald. with a smile, as one of the men grasped his hand and addressed him with the big title. “I'm just Mr. Harris, now, or, better still, just Harris." Heretofore when Mr. Harris - passed through Omaha he rode In his own pri- Vate car, which is famillar to all Bur- lington men. The fact that he came In on an ordinary Pullman startled the sta- tion employes and made them look twice to beliéve their eyes. Mr. Harrls has gone to Lincoln to visit his mother and his sister, Miss Sarah M. Hayrls, “I'm not on an inspection trip of any kind now,"” he sald. “I'm not working.

Following a rald of the rooms of the independent and Foclal club over ths Pa ace clothiog store, 200 South Fourteenth street, eighteen negroes are hald for trial at police court on charges of gambiing and being ‘inmates of a gambling house. Detectives itfeld and Donohue dropped fn while play is alleged to have been in progress. The rald created quite a sceme of excite- \ment and the crowd that lined Fourteenth street was particularly interested in whether one of the men, who sought' safety by means of the fire exit, would effect his escape. His fiight, however, was noticed by un officer on the street, the detectives inside were warned and the man Was cap- tured In & room on the second story. ‘After being an hour in the station, Charles B.-Coleman, president of the ¢lub, went as surety for the men’s release untli the hear- Ing.

' 1 Scientists Hear Lincoln Address Carl Herring Talks of Religious Sig- nificance of Life of Martyred President. Carl E. Herring delivered a ten-minute ad- dress on the spiritual significance of the life and work of Abraham Lincoln at the Christian Science service held Saturday morning in Chambers' academy. ““The na- tion has a divine heritage In the simple story of this simple man,” sald Mr. Her- ring. “A man who can measure up to the high Ideals that Lincoln reached, is worthy ' indeed of study, and we may well be con- sidered In the light of what life has to teach of man as a spiritual creature. “He stood among the mountain peaks and saw God not only as the friend of the free, but also of the oppr4ssed. No mer personality would warrant departure. from our accustomed method of ‘service, and no one thing in him appeals to us, but all of his great qualities bring home to our minds the fact that history records no more sub- line symbol of the divine mind than when the shackles were stricken from the limbs of the slaves.” Mr. Herring briefly analyzed the life of the martyred president along the lines of thought famillar to students of the work of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy.

No, neither can anyone else. That's @ harder question than, ‘Why is an insurgent? Talk about confidence!

That sie had provided homes for more than 300 bables in Los Angeles, and that untll now none of the supposed “fathers" had been any the wiser, was the startling testimony of Mrs. C. E.

Wil- son with four ehildren, which the latter tried to palm off on hér husband as quad- ruplets born to her. ) Mrs. Smith sald this was a favorite Mmeans adopted by many persons, whose husbands wanted chlldren, to escape the care and sickness incldent to confinement. Mrs. Smith's story was told in the Investi- gatlon before Judge Wilbur regarding the parentage of the four children which Mry Wilson had admitted were not hers, AS a result of the Inquiry the conduct of such maternity hospitals as that operated by Mrs. Smith will be placed before the Present grand jury for investigation. The evidence of W. W. Wilson, two phy- siolans and a nurse brought out further detalls of the hoax planned by Mrs, Wil- son. i ‘Her intense love of chlldren prompted | her to do it, I am convinced,” testifiea Dr. A. G. Pratt, who was called to the house at the time of the supposed births, ““I ar- rived at the house thirty minutes after the supposed delivery. I found a highly ex- cited family, four bables and a much- amused nurse. There was every indication. about the room that the bables had been born there. “Mrs..

HOSPITAL FOUND NEGLIGENT Coroner’s Jury Blames Omaha General Staff for Death of Alva Wetzel. LEGAL ACTION MAY FOLLOW Not Properly Hospital Authorities, That Alva Wetsel, who died at Omaha General hospital Wednesday afternoon, made his fatal leap from a third story window when left alone in a fevered con- dition by & nurse whose time was divided among three patients was admitted by witnesses at the inquest held by Willls C. Crosby, coroner, Friday afternoon. The verdict finds that the hospital was negij- gent in caring for the patient and in fall- ure to notity the coroner. The family of the dead man was repre- sented by a lawyer at the inquest, Indi- ocating that further action would be taken by them following developments of the In- Quest. No reason for sending the body out of the state to Council Bluffs was given. With the exception of Dr. A. 8. Pinto, the attendant physician, no witnesses other than hospital employes were called, al- though Coroner Crosby held others in read- iness had their testimony been necessary to the establishment of the facts: Doctor Ordered Fresh Alr, “I told the nurse to open theé window, as the room waa close,”” sald Dr. Pinto, telling on the stand of his Jast visit to the patient before the accident which caused his death. ‘‘She .sald she would as soon as she had finished his bath.” Dr. Pinto testified that out of a possible 10,000 fever cases that he had treated in his long army experience and elsewhere this was the first in which a patient had shown suicidal bent. Dr. Pinto was called to the hospital after the accldent and found Wetzel in his bed, suffering from a fracture at the base of the skull, which alone was & fatal injury. He also learned that the third cervical vertebra had been dislocated by the fall. The patient wa suffering from shock. Wetzel's death en- ed at 8 o'clock in the afternoon. “1 was in the hall waiting to sweep out @ room when I heard somebody cry out ‘Nurse! nurse! nurse!’” testified Meta Kell, a maid employed at the hospital. “I ran into the room and saw the man sitting on the window ledge with his feet hanging down. He turned and looked at me and then dropped off. I got to bim just in time to touch his finger tips as he 11 0, 1 didn't see any nurse there,” an- swered the mald to the question of the coroner, Fellow Patient Sounds Alarm. Another patient in the room had sounded the alarm. Wetsel had been under the care of Miss Mary Rassmussen, a nurse, who, In her testimony, stated that she had to care for three fever patients, an- swer the telephone and ocecasionally do other work for nurses who were off duty. She testified that for a part of the time the patient had been restrained to keep him In his bed, because of a tendency to t up when he awakened from sleep. These restraints had been removed under direction of the physiclan, that Weétzel might be turned over from time to fime to avold hypostatic pneumonia, which I8 a danger that besets a typhoid patient who remalns too long In & fixed position. “I had gone out to my desk to record condition when the accident sald Miss Rassmussen. Bhe sald that the restraint put on the patient was solely for the purpose of keeping him off of his teet, not with the fear that he would do violence to himself or to others. Marle Wieck, head nurse, when called to testify, admitted that the patient had been when she exclaimed: “Why, I saw Miss Rassmussen after the accident and she sald then that she had besn in his ruom a short time before. 1, This led to question which developed the fact that Miss Rassmussen In her rounds saw the patient about once in & half hour. Carlug for Pat “Is'1t mot one'ef the first instructions of & physician to keep & typhoid patient off his feet?' asked Byron Burbank, sttorney for relatives of Wetgel, in eross-examining Miss Wieck. “Yes." “Then the §10 a week compensation which this man paid included that protection, alan't it ‘“Yes," answered the nurse. Charles Robel, manager of the hospital, was questioned by Ooroner Crosby and re- lated the story of the aecideni. Then the coroner went into the matter of the fallure to notify his offiee, gaining a curious ad- mission from Robel. “Did you have an idea that the ocase might be Investigated?’ asked the coroner. “Yes,” replied Robel, calmly. “Who 4id you notify of the matter?" “Our office notified Mrs. Wetsel and Mr, “Did you notify anyone after that?™ Fl + The many heartbroken mothers, wives, sisters and daughters who are today suf- fering on account of a dear one being af- flicted with the terrible curse of the Drink HABIT have my heartfelt sympathy.
