CALVIN GOES INTO NEW OFFIGE TODAY Retiring Head of Union Pacific Keeps Open house for His Many Friends. NEW PRESIDENT ARRIVES President Calvin, recently elected president of the Union Pacific system to succeed A. L. Mohler, whose res- ignation became effective at mid- night, has arrived in Omaha from Salt Lake City and at once went to headquarters, where he met Mr. Moh- ler. The two presidents met, shook hands, held a short conversation, dis- cussing the weather and the crops, and then Mr. Calvin retired to the president’s private office, where he dictated some private letters. With President Mohler it was a busy day. He had just as much to do with the affairs of the railroad as if he was to remain president for an indefinite period. He conferred as usual with the officers who report to him and issued the usual orders emanating from the office of presi- dent. In addition to all of this, he met a host of friends who have known him for years and who came to say goodbye. However, he would not have it that way, impressing upon them that he was not going away to stay, but, instead, just getting out of the harness for the purpose of tak- ing a rest that he felt he had earned. The callers were not confined to any one particular class, but included the rich and the poor; the prominent business men and those of more hum- ble walks of life. The reception to each was the same, Mr. Mohler hav- ing just as warm a greeting and as firm a hand shake for the poor man ag for the rich man. Door Wide Open. The afternoon was given over to the employes and officers of the Union Pacific. They call;d singly and in groups to pay their parting tribute to a president whom they have come to regard as one of their best friends. There was nothing for- mal about the final reception. The door to Mr. Mohler's private office was wide open and all who called were made to feel that they were welcome, and as the Union Pacific men grasped the hand of their pass- ing president there was a kind and cheerey word for each. Still Calls Omaha Home. Last night Mr. Mohler left for New York City. After a short con- ference with members of the execu- tive committee, he will go to an At- lantic coast resort: where he will take a long rest. Following this, he will return and probably go to his Colo- rado ranch for a time. Later on he expects to return to Omaha and con- tinue to make this city his home. While the affair will be strictly in- formal, today will be Mr. Calvin's day at Union Pacific headquarters. With the coming of the dawn he au- tomatically becomes president in fact and assumes all of the duties of the office. During the day it is planned by the officials and employes to call upon him in his office and pay their respects and thus become acquainted. Americans Give Up Mexican Positions Mexico City, June 30.—General Tre- vino, commanding the de facto gov- ernment forces in Chihuahua, in- formed the War departmen. by tele- graph today that the American troops had commenced a retirement north- ward and had abandoned the towns of San Buena Ventura, Las Cruces, Nam- iquipa and Santa Clara. These places, he added, were immediately occupied by his forces. General Trevino also advised the War department that the Villa gener- als, Marcelo Carabelo, Juan Cabral and Ramon Sousa had been permitted to enter the de facto government's territory, coming from thc United States. Ralph McCabe, who says he came from LaPlatte, Nebr., to ship out for work in the harvest fields, met three men in the district south of the Burlington depot They attempted to rob him and he says he laid out two but the third hit him with the butt of a revolver cutting him below the eye and on the chin.

FAITH IS PLEDGED ANEW “Dear old South Omaha; sweet be her memory. Blesscd be those men who toiled for thrity years. It is now for you young men to take up the work of those prophets of hope. Let Greater Omaha be the splendid star toward which you shall guide your ship. Let service be your motto,” said Rev. Robert L. Wheeler, in the keynote speech of a Greater Omaha get-together dinner last evening in the restaurant of the Live Stock ex- change building, South Side. The dinner was attended by 350 representative men of the merged city and was tendered to the city commis- sioners in honor of George Parks, re- cently elected city commissioner to fill a vacancy. E. Buckingham was chairman of the occasion and Bruce McCulloch served as toastmaster. Green's band discoursed musical enthusiasm and Miss Grace Poole contributed several vocal numbers. During the evening there were several demonstrations of “pep.” During his toast to “The Tie That Binds,” Rev. Mr. Wheeler said that South Side people may have lost much, but will gain more by con- solidation. Randall K. Brown, on behalf of the Commercial club, expressed the hope that South Siders will make this club its awn club and share in the advan- tages it offers. Dr. E. C.
