t Y THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, CHAOS RULESNEW |Rousing Reception Planned for Beveridge at Auditorium Friday RAILROAD RATES Shipments from Omaha May Cost $10 and Same Dis- ance Back $6.45. ECHO OF ORDER NO. The railroads yesterday began to charge an increased rate out of Oma- ha and other jobbing points in the state and even yet they do not know whether they have the authority to do so. Neither do they know whether they have au!.!writy to let them stand at the old rate, so they took what they considered the lesser of the two evils and began to charge the in- crease. They are demanding more to ship shirts or overalls from Omaha, to Long Pine or Fairbury or Auburn to- day, but they are charging the same old rate to send shirts or overalls from Waverly to Lodgepole. While they have raised the rate from Omaha to Long Pine or Fair- bury or Auburn, they are not sure that they have the right to charge that advance from Long Pine, Fair- bury and Auburn to Omaha. Thus it may cost $10 to ship a box a given distance west and cost $6.45 to ship it the same distance back to where it started. Another Dilemma. Again, the high rate is in effect from Omaha to Sidney, but if one hauls his goods to Florence and loads them there he can ship them from Florence through Omaha gnd thence to Sidney for a much lower rate. It all comes about on account of the hopeless confusion into which rates were thrown by the Interstate Commerce commission’s order re- gelling the Nebraska rates, which had een in effect under order No. 19 of the Nebraska railway commission. When the federal body repealed these rates and ordered an advance it was finally decided the advance should be effective October 25. The order affected only rates from the jobbing centers of Nebraska, which are clearly outlined as Omaha, Lin- coln, Beatrice, Norfolk, Columbus, Grand Island, Hastings, St. Paul and Fremont. 3 A Sixty-Five Per Cent Increase. This means that when you ship anything out of one of thése cities you pay the higher rate, which in some instances is 65 per cent higher than under the old Nebraska rate. It means also that between any other towns in the state you may continue to ship as much as you want at the old rate. g Whether it will continue long_to cost $10 to ship from Omaha to Po- dunkville, and only $6.45 to ship from Podunkville to Omaha, is one of the points that yet remains to be settled by the federal court in Omaha. Butchers in Bloody ‘Battle Over Woman Three South Side butchers had a bloody battle late Wednesday night over a woman, Gluko Vlada, 2425 R street, has been arrested on the charge of assaulting Petunt Pete and Joe Pit. All fighters are employed in the packing houses. ~ Knives were used so freely that a stream of blood flowed from the house where the three men live down into the street, In fact, it' was by tracing the blood trail from the side- walk to the various rooms in the building that detectives found out what men were in the fight. The woman in the case is said to have "trifled with the affections of Vlada, the alleged assailant of the other two men, who were intimate friends of the woman. ' Funeral of Creighton Instructor Wednesda§ Funeral services for the late Rich- ard Frederick Winsor, a valued mis- sionary worker in India for years, were held at the home, 2416 Spencer street, Omaha, Wednesday. Rev. F “W. Leavitt of Plymouth Congrega- tional church and Rev. H. Linwood Hartwell, brother-in-law of the de- ceased, officiated. Interment will be in Neponset, Ill, where Dr. Winsor was a member of the Congregational church. Dr. Winsor was a son of Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Winsor and was born in Mahableshwar, India, and died of pneumonia here October 21, aged 36 years. He was a valued worker in India, helping his parents, who were mis- sionaries of the American board. His father openc! the first industrial school in India. In 1894 he entered Oberlin college. Later he studied at the University of Chicago and took his M. D. from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Chicago.

Upon coming to Omaha a year ago he became pathologist and Roent- genologist at the Lord Lister hospi- tal. Dr. Winsor was an instructor in pathology at Creighton! College of Medicine. He was married to Miss Myrtle Sholl of Peoria, Ill., in 1914. He is survived by his widow, his mother, Mrs, C. Winsor, and brother, Sanford b., of Ceylon, India. 19 A. Winsor, M.

Of the numerous ills that affect humanity a large share start with constipation. Keep your bowels reg- ular and they may be avdided. When a laxative is needed take Chamber- lain’s Tablets. They not only move the bowels, but improve the appetite and strengthen the digestion.

South Side Man Held Up, Slugged and Robbed Adam Krck, 5119 South Thirty- sixth street, was slugged and robbed of $20 in money and a personal check for $35 on an out-of-the-way corner at Twenty-fifth and R streets®last evening at 11:45 o'clock. Krch told the police that he had been ap- roached by a man who purported to Ee an officer of the law. Later he was joined by another man and the three wandered about Q street for a time. A steel of some kind was used in the assault. Krck has a deep cut over his left eye. Civil Cases of T. H. Matters Settled by Stipulation Thomas H.

What result today’s proceedings will have on the criminal phase of the affair, however, will not be known un- til after a decision has been rendered by the circuit court of appeals in St. Louis, Salesman Says He Was Not Driving Car that Hit Girl T. H. Tuma, who was reported as driving the auto which ran into a young woman at Seventeenth street and St. Mary's avenue and who was arrested for careless driving, denies that he was driving the car. He says that he was in the rear seat and that Clarence Sweet was driving and that a warrant is now out for the arrest of Sweet. He says that the mistake was made because it was his dem- onstrating car, but that he was not driving at the time of the accident. Conrad Young, Erastus Young, Dr. G. A. Young, W. W. Young, E. E. ZiImmerman, 8. Zaghinl, Harry B. Zimman, Tabloids of Politics Little Items About the Progress of the Campaign. Senator Albert J. Beveridge, who will speak this evening at the Audi- torium, started life as an Indiana lowboy. Early in life he learned the esson of co-ordinating his mental and physical faculties to the best ad- vantage. Aside from any partisan consideration his appearance here is. a matter of more than ordinary im- portance. He is scholarly in thought and eloquent in speech. One of the best indoor sports at this time is to read the democratic glatfarm of 1912, four years ago. Here is one paragraph: “The high cost of living is a serious problem in every American home. ¢ charge that excessive prices result, in a large measure, from high tariff laws en- acted and maintained by the republi- can party and from trusts and com- mercial conspiracies fostered and en- couraged by such laws and we assert that no substantial relief can be se- cured for the people without import duties on the necessaries of life are materially reduced.” Brethren, let us pray! “A vote for Wilson is a vote for Daniels,” is one of the Harveyisms published by the republican national committee. “If Keith Neville should be elected, would Arthur Mullen be the invisible governor?"—Diogenes. What is the use of answering this, inasmuch as Mr. Neville will not be elected? But if Neville should be elected—well, what's the use of dis- cussing things that will not happen? Charles Witte of Chicago precinct and George Rohrer of McArdle pre- cinct called at republican headquar- ters, 1607 Farnam street, to bring re- ports that the people of their dis- tricts are overwhelmingly for Hughes. “It will be the quiet vote that is go- ing to count. I have been around con- siderably and you would be sur- priged to know of the voters who are for Hughes, but who are not making much noise about it,” said Mr. Witte. Apé)rnximately 1,000 voters have called at the election commissioner's office each day this week for new registrations or revision of registra- tions. The office will be open until 9 o'clock this evening and to the same hour on Friday, which will be the last day to register for the elec- tion next month, Florence citizens will hold a rous- ing old-fashioned political meeting Saturday evening in Eagle hall. This will be the big meeling of the cam- paign for Omaha’s northern suburb. The principal speakers will be Ben S. Baker and A. W. Jefferis, Acid Words Flying at Real Estate Exchange H. H. Harper sailed into the Real Estate exchange meeting Wednesday and spoke his mind freely, bitterly and somewhat vitriolicly. | Harper is not a member of the ex- change, but was invited to attend it because the exchange had in the newspapers condemned certain real estate propositions as a class, which Mr. Harpef thought was aimed quite directly at him, Byron Hastings asked that Mr. Harper be given a chance to speak and Mr. Harper indulged in some personalities when he got up, and|: likewise indulged in some rather sweeping denunciations of board members. Omaha Man Buys Hotéf Sherman at Kansas City |3 H. H. Griswold, formerly with'the Sanford and who remodelled the University club and was later with Burgess-Nash, has purchased the lease and fixtures of the Hotel Sherman in Kansas City and has taken posses- sion, the price given being approxi- mately $30,000. Mr. Griswold was married to Miss Margaret Weaver while in Omaha. Negro Wallops Thief Who Stole His Fried Chicken “Ah couldn’t help it, jedge,” re- marked A.

OCTOBER 27, Hot Words Ring Through the City Hall When Commissioners Wrangle 1916. Butler and Kugel Come Face to Face and Explode, but Do Nat Fight. ALL OVER BARN LOCATION City Commissioners Kugel and But- ler aroused the bromidic proceedings of the city council by interposing sundry and sulphuric exchanges of acrid words. These city dads faced each other in a threatening attitude and for a few moments the council chamber bore a militant aspect. A delegation of citizens called again to remonstrate against the erection of a barn on South Twenty-first street by the Sunderland Bros. company. An ordinance restricting this street to residence purposes had been recom- menged for passage by the city coun- cil committee of the whole and final Ei_ty Acceiitvslogs” N From Mrs. Gifford For Playground The city commissioners formally accepted nine lots on north side of Davenport street, between Thirty- fifth street and Thirty-fifth avenue, from Mrs. Harold Gifford for use as a playground for girls. The city is to pay $2,640 special taxes, which the commissioners be- lieve is a fair proposition. Commissioner Hummel stated he will start next spring to improve the tract for the purpose intended I)r Mrs. Gifford. Ben Baker Converts A Wilson Heckler Benjamin S. Baker is wearing the smile that won’t come off. A Wilson heckler heckled him at a Benson re- publican rally Wednesday night and concluded the debate by pledging his vote to the republican nominee for congress and “the rest of the repub- lican ticket with the possible ex- ception of Wilson.” ! “Isn’t Wilson responsible for the present prosperity?”’ asked the audi- tor. “No,” said Mr. Baker, “Present prosperity is due to good crops and the manufacture and sale of ammu- | The democrats have done | nition. nothing, either by tariff or s$pecial legislation, to win the present pros- perity. In fact, the country has a surplus of cash in spite of the Wilson regime rather than because of it." After firing several more queries at Mr, Baker the heckler mounted to the platform and shook hands with the man who answered him, “Ben” sees signs of republican vic- tory all through the state. “The en- thusiasm is born of the old-time spirit which cannot be defeated,” he says.
