NOT AN UNMIXED BLESSING
Two Views of tlie Coming Visit of the Yale
Drew to Henley.
YACHTS HEADED FOR SOUTHERN WATERS

oul AVorlil AVllInril Coui-

( Copyright , 1896 , uy tha Associated Press )
CONDON , Feb. 8. Socially and politically
this has been a dismal week , although there
has been a revival of Interest In politics , in
view of the approaching opening of Parlia
ment.
In sporting circles there has-been consider
able attention aroused by the cable dispatches
announcing Yale's intention to send a crew
across the Atlantic to compote at the Henley
regatta. The news met with a kindly re
ception among the amateur oarsmen , and no
doubt Is felt that the appearance of a sports
manlike crow , such as Yale is supposed to
bo , will do much to cftaco the bitterness re
sulting from the Dunraven Incident and the
unfortunate experience of the Cornell crow In
Kngland last year.
Truth , discussing the prospects of Yale
Bending a crew to England says : "With
every dcslro to welcome. Yale wo cannot help
expressing the selfish wish that for ono short
year no foreign crew will como to Henley.
Their presence raises the excitement to such
a fever pitch that pleasure Is to a great
extent destroyed. However , a crew or two
will undoubtedly como , and In order to meet
emergencies , the Oxford University Boat club
lias ordered moro racing boats. "
It la not disguised bore that the success of
the popular lean In the United States was a
croat surprise , and Is held to justify the
moro hopeful view ot the situation. It IB
generally Interpreted as showing that the
Americans believe that tha loan will not bo
repaid In silver. A representative of the
Associated press called yesterday at the
Ilothschllds banking house and asked the
representative ot the firm what he thought
ot the new United States loan. Ho said ;
"Tho promptitude with which the loan was
taken was something of a surprise to bomlon
f. bankers. President Cleveland Is to bo con
gratulated upon its success. There may ,
however , bo some trouble In readily finding
gold to take tbo bonds. In that caeo It
would have been more easily accomplished by
a syndicate. I do not know what proportion
of the loan Is subscribed for In Europe , but
I think It Is only a small amount. "
At tlio J. S. Morgan banking house a rep-
roiontattvo of that firm remarked : "I can
not Bay accurately until the government
award Is published , how many bonds were
Bold to Europe. I thing about $5,000,000 , "
At Drown , Shipley Co.'a a representative
ot the firm said : "I have had some orders
from customers , but nothing In proportion to
the former loan. "
The secretary of the Bimetallic league re
marked ; "I am not Inclined to see simply a
Kold Issue in the wonderful manner In which
the loan vvaa subscribed. It seems to have
come from general sources , and I do not be
ll eve the subscribers are among the silver
men. I regard It entirely as a gold loan. "
OSUOUNU GOU3 TO BEATRICE.
U Is stated In some of the newspapers that
in the event of the death of the queen it
will be found that tier majesty lias be
queathed Osborno house to Princess Beatrice ,
Including the right of gift of the living of
Whlpplngham church. Partly for this rea
son , It Is added , Princess Beatrice wishes
the remains of her husband to bo Interred
there. It Is understood that the prince of
Wales , after the queen's demise , will hare
Balmoral castle , as he Is the only member of
royal family capable of supporting It , or else
U will be sold and the proceeds divided be
tween tha duke of Connaught , .the Princesses
Christian and Louise , and the children of the
late duke of Albany ,
There has been an exodus of yachts this
tonurd the Mediterranean , where they
will take part In the Rlvorla races. The
Britannia , Allsa and Satlnlta met with rough
weather while on their way there. The Allsa
had to return to Glbralter , owing to the
severity of the gale which she encountered
and a seaman of her crew was washed over
board and drowned.
A breach of promise case which promises
to be of great interest to the young men am
women ab > ut town commences on Monday
next before Judge Russell and a specla
jury. It Is ho suit of Birdie Suther
land , a popular ballot girl , against Hon
Dudley Churchill Majorlbanks , the eldest son
of Baron Tneedmouth and a lieutenant in
the Fourth battalion ot the Argyle nnd
Sutherland Highlanders , for 20,000 ( $100,000
damages. Sir Edward Clark , Q. C. , M , P.
formerly solicitor general , has been engagei
to represent Miss Sutherland , and Mr. Henry
Asqulth , formerly secretary of state for home
affairs , will defend young Majorlbanks
whoso offer of 3,000 to settle the case was
refused. The case ls likely to turn upon the
point whether the lieutenant was of full age
when the promise of marriage Is alleged to
have been made. Birdie's sUter , Llllle
Harold , U now appearing In the pantomime
at Drury Lane. Birdie , nee Watklns , being
nn Infant in the eyes of the law , sues through
her father , who was foremrly a clerk In the

It 1s announced that Mrs. John W , Mackay
has sold her house in Paris and will hereafter -
after reside In London. Her London res
idence , C Cnrlton House terrace , Is the hand
somest mansion In that aristocratic quarter ,
and she has as neighbors the duchess ol
Marlborough , George N. Curzon and the duke
of Portland.
WILLARD COMING TO AMERICA.
E. S. Wlllard has now definitely decided as
to his fiutiro plans. It has frequently been
stated In the papers that ho would re-engago
the Garrlck theater , taking the lease of that
house from John Hare upon the latter's re
turn from America , Mr. Wlllard said : "These
reports are not true. I shall remain at the
Garrlck during the season , I am already
arranging for another American tour In the
autumn. I shall open my season there In
Now York early In November. I am rather
worried over the Idea that the next pres
idential campaign will bo a very exciting
one , and that undoubtedly will have a bad
effect on theatrical business.
Augustln Daly's London rcpresentatlvo
asked the Associated press to deny the re
port for Homo time current In the London
press , that upon his return from America
Sir Henry Irving would leave the Lyceum
theater and transfer his productions to
Daly's.
Paul Pcttcr , who has ot late been much en
tertained In London artistic circles , lias been
In Paris making arrangements with Henry
Calno to wrlto a comedyopera on the story
of "Trilby. "
"Trilby" still continues the popular rage
at the Haymarkct theater here. H Is al
most certain that the play will continue
to hold the board for an entire year , if not
longer.
Sir Augustus Harris will shortly secure
.ho management cf another theater. This Is
the Opera Comlque , which , since the close
ot Nellie Farren'a season , has been occupied
jy a Gorman company. At the conclusion
of this engagement It will pass Into the
lands of Sir Augustus , who will then pro
duce Stanford & Temple's now Uugltsh-Irlsh
opera , "Shamua O'Brien. "
"Tho New Barmaid , " a musical sketch , will
30 produced at the Avenue theater next
Wednesday evening , February 12. The play
is of the variety order , and there U a part
which will serve to display the talents of
Lottie Collins. Florence S. John , J. L ,

15,000 , vhero they will grind up tliu beets
and manufacture syrup and the crude

UNION TO BUILD UP OMAHA

COMMITTEE ON ORGANIZATION NAMED

Sumo Eml In VlevT HCMI the
Project WUM UlncuwMcd.
A Joint meeting of the Jobbers and travelIng -
Ing men woa held at Krug's hall last even
ing , p. C. Tuttle called the meeting to order.
Q. M. Tlbbs was elected chairman and R. P.
Hodgln secretary. Mr. Tuttle stated that
the object of the meeting was to form an
association of Nebraska Jobbers and retailers.
The Idea of an organization of the kind came
from Kansas City , where the agricultural
Implement dealers have such an association.
Ita8 thought tliat It would require too
many associations to have a separate organi
zation for each line of business , so It was
proposed to embrace all In one. It was
proposed to formulate a plan and then call a
convention and Invite the retailers from all
sections of the state to be present ami take
part In the organization. "We want the re
tail merchants of the state to become ac
quainted with the heads of the Omaha Jobb'ng
Souses , " said the speaker. "They know us ,
the traveling men , but they are not ac
quainted ultli you Jobbers. It Is not Intended
to form an organization that shall bo an
tagonistic to the Manufacturers' and Con
sumers' association , but rather the twin
brcther. "
UETAILnnS TO BE INCLUDED.
Mr. Hodgln proposed that the organiza
tion Include the retailers In western lena ,
South Dakota and other sections reached by
the Onmlia Jobbers.
Dan Parrell nad ! that It was a fact that
the South Platte country was gradually drift
ing an ay from Omaha and the object of the
organization should bo to Induce the mer
chants of the state to buy their goods In
Nebraska.
Mayor Broatch ealil that he felt that the
Jobbers of Omaha ought to place themselves
In accord ullh the merchants of the etntc.
Ho was In favor of making the organization
broad enough to roach all tributary territory.
Mr. Cannon said that It was very difficult
to hold the trade In the southern r > jrt of
the state. Even within fifty to sixty miles
of Omaha the merchants peem to prefer
Lo buy In other markets , ando feel tint
there must be uomo reason for It. In the
northern part of the elate the merchants
seem to prefer to buy In Sioux City. We
realize that we must do something to change
this.
this.Edward
Edward flopcwater was called upon and re
plied that he realized that the feeling in
.ho etato tonard Omaha UHS not what
Dmahans like to see it , and that no oppor-
.unity to promote friendly relations between
city and country should bo last. He pointed
out that the newspaper Is the advance agent
of the buslncra man , but that Omaha papers
nd been handicapped by poor mall facilities.
Tbo government was using Ita Influence to
drive everything Into the great metropolis
jy the lakes , sending out eight opeclal mall
trains dally to the great detriment of the
prcsj In the smaller cities and to other busi
ness Intercuts as well.
BUSINESS REVOLUTION POSSIBLE.
Attention wag alsa called to the disad
vantage to Omaha of railroad rates con
structed In the Interest of other cities , In
ha opinion of the speaker , If all Omaha
nterects. , could tie consolidated and work
mergetlcally for the common good It would
> o possible to nltneJi a business revolution
n Omaha within a twelve-month.
O , M , Hitchcock dwelt upon the Importance
o a city of the social feature. A cordl.il
landshako would do wonders toward btlld-
ng up a business ,
Mr. Hospo tald that as president of the i
Retailors' club , lie could assure the
izatlon of the hearty c'o-operatlon of the re
tall merchants of Omaha.
Mr. Katz was In favor of anything tha
would bo of benefit to the city and state.
Mr. Utt explained the railroad situation
allowing wherein Omaha was to a dlsad
vantage , as compared with competing points
and added that the matter had been placec
before the Interstate commission and a de
cision was expected In the course of the nex
thirty days.
Z. T. Llndsey stated that a Jobbers * ex
cursion was being planned for the purposs
of visiting the trade in Colorado. Ho sale
that the trip to Montana last year brought
a great deal of business to Omaha , and he
was In favor of going to Colorado and shak
ing hands with the merchants of that state
H. II. Hardy said that It would be well to
have another meeting when a larger repre
sentation of Jobbers could bo present.
O. C. Holmes reminded these present ol
the existence of the Nebraska club , and so
licited tholr co-tiperatlon , as It represents
a movement to benefit the whole state.
The motion of Mr. Tuttle to organize an
association was passed , and the following
committee was named to formulate a pint
of organization to bo presented at the next
meeting : Frank Hani. Dan Farreli ; H. H.
Hardy , C. B. Cannon , P. C. Tuttle and W. II.
Brown.

IIlH "Henry tlio Sixth" Not True to
the TJnu'N.
The amateur opera seriously Interfered
with the attendance at last evening's moot
ing of the Unity club , which was an Inter
esting session despite the small number
present.
The first paper was read by Miss Tobbltt.
It dealt with ono form of opposition to ab
solution la English government , the social
discontent , She said that 8hakespea.ro mis
represented the true condition of affairs of
this period , especially in "Henry VI. " She
declared that the poet selected all his heroes
and other principal characters from the royal
and other privileged classes and that he
undervalued the revolts of tha laboring peo-
nlo and completely distorted the facts of
this time. This , she thought , Mas a great
wrong , nnd argued that no ono should draw
his conclusions of the period from a reading
of Shakespeare.

LABOR WILL HAVE A LAUNDRY
Will Bo Oo-Oporativo and for Women
Only.
WHY THE PROJECT HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN
It In to nellevc the Female Unem
ployed Who Talk of Suicide mid
Wornc TIiliiifN SolIclHiiK-
Tomorrow.
It has been determined that an attempt
shall bo mads to dissolve what has been
called "tho suicide club. " This club has mo
organization. Its members have no bond of
union save the sympathy begotten by want
and on. account of unsatisfied want , despair.
Dally circumstances , since the establishment
of the employment bureau In connection with
the Labor Tetnple scheme , have attested not
only the fact that thousands of men and
heads of families are at the extremity of
subsistence , but , what more creates com
passion , that hundreds of women ara In the
same respect In such sore straits that many
declare It is a choice between starvation and
eelf destruction or the getting of bread by
the barter of their honor.
Ono saia the other day : "It I can't get
work , soon , I will go down and live as these
In the burnt district do , " and some have
Bald that rather than live longer as they
are , they would quit living at alt.
On this desperate account It has been de
cided that something be done especially for
the women and glrlo who are out of work.
Slnco General Kelly came to the city the
situation 1ms been discussed , not moro
earnestly , tiut with moro hope than before
and a remedial course agreed on. A co
operative laundry will bo established unless
.ho effortB of the labor officials and of Gen
eral Kelly ran. u esiauiianeu , u win oo
the drat' co-oneratlve labor Institution In the
city , and It Is designed that It shall bo ex
clusively. In ) ta operation , for women and
girls without other employment and without
irospoct of obtaining any.
General Kelly has bad some experience
n this regard and will remain In Omaha
'or the next sixty days to labor In further
ance of the undertaking. He was ono of tha
iromoters of a\llke institution in Oakland ,
3al. , and will use hero the same methods
.hat proved to bo so successful there ,
iA building suitable both In Itself and In Us
location will be first secured , either free of
rent or by rent. Then equipment will besought
sought , and It Is believed that this , and
losslbly the usol of the building , will be
donated or furnished at small cost. No at-
emnt will be made to put In expenslvo ma
chinery , The washing will bo tub washing ,
jut some lumber must be had and a steam
jollor , iinfl the fitting up ot the room will
bo by the labor of unemployed men.
As At Oakland , the workers every Satur
day night , after deductions for expenses and
10 per cent for a contingent fund , will divide
among them the receipts proj rata according
o the tlmo put In at labor. No ono will
10 paid at a higher rate than another , the
nanager receiving the name per hour aa
hose In the wash rooms. The laborers will
> o worked In shifts , ono company a few
days or a week , then another , and so on ,
ho aim being constantly to relieve those
neat In need of relief.
General Kelly saya that at Oakland the
recompense averaged about $8 per week ,
and the general popularity of the cnter-
rlsa was shown by the fact that on the
Irst day work was Dollcltcd , ono party se
cured orders for $50 ,
The work of establishing the laundry will
> o commenced tomorrow ,
I'U-nitoil nidi Htrrut Work IMnu.
Local organized labor Is , on the whole , very
well plc-ased with the understanding that
las been reached between the officials of
Central Labor union arid the city council
with regard to the cleaning of the streets.
Though the relief to the unemployed that
las already begun cannot go far toward the
general betterment of their condition , U 'Is
Dnsldered a point that was well worth otriv-
ng for ,
It will be seen to that the men employed
at street cleaning are these only who- are
in Immediate destitution , and as a rule
preference will bo given to married men who
have families dependent upon them. The
Board of Public Works has agreed , for the
present at any rate , to pick men for the work
from lists sent by Central Labor union offi
cers , and by the latter very careful Inquiry

Labor temple was crowded to the doors
last night , the attraction being General
Charles T. Kelley , 'who was billed for a
speech. There wore noveral women pres
ent and they manifested a lively Interest
In the proceedings.
John O. Kuhn occupied the floor for a
few moments In telling the gathering about
the llttlo red label designed by the Central
Labor union. It was designed to designate
goods nindo In Nebraska by union labor. He
asked all Interested in the progress of or
ganized labor to sea that this label appeared
on all goods purchased.
Mr. Waller made a brief talk on the sub
ject of scab beer.
General Kelley was then Introduced. Ho
spoke of the competition between the small
merchants and the big department stores.
Ho advlsod the worklngmen to keep out of
the matter entirely and let the people who
were Interested fight It out. The working-
nan had always made tbo mlutako of pull
ing chestnuts out of the flro for the benollt
of other people. Passing to the Immigra
tion question , the speaker said it was a
mistake to suppose it was the causeof all
: he Ills In the condition of the worklngman ,
He favored the Immigration of an honest
worklngmoa whoso only capital wa'i his
strong right arm , rather than the Immigra
tion of the capitalist , who produced nothing
and expected to live from the labors of the
worklngman.
Free trade and the tariff qiifstbn re
ceived brlct cons'dcratlon. No clunge that
might bo made , ho fold , would make any
material change In the worklngman's con
dition.
Taking up the free silver theme , he r'-
'erred to tha claim that free coinage would
double wages and attomptoJ to elnw the
'a'lacy of It by proving that the purclns-
ng power of money would not be Increased
n proportion to the Increase In the amount
ot money. The cnly re ult wouU t t-j
double the property of trio cjpltalls' , "vshlle
.ho benefit to the laborer would be nil. The
.wo great polltca ! > parties were bth oper
ated In the ) Interests of the capitalists , and
.he laboring man was foolli'h to expect laws
which would benefit him , The populist pa.rty
was not any better. He urged the working-
nan to waken from his lethargy and real-
zo the tremendous power ho held , "Stop
working In the Interest of tbo capltal'st
and -\\ork awhile In your own Interest , " he
exclaimed forcefully. . "You have the power
.o free yourselves , but you keep on work-
ng for the capitalist and expect that he
8 going to help you to get away fronV Ills
lower. "
The general closed his talk by relating an
ncldentvlilrli had occurred under lila ob
servation , and took occasion to comment
ather oovorely upon the Associated Char-
ties of Omaha , Ho Bald a man named Joe
Miller had como to labor headquarters beg
ging for help. He eald ho had a mother sick
with dropsy and a wife and children to sup
port , The epeakor paid that to his knowl
edge the case had been carefully Investigated
and It was found that what the man stated
was true. He had been Idle one week , hav *
ng worked four weeku consecutively previous
to the week ho had been Idle. General Kelley
said he asked Miller , "Why didn't you save
lomethlng out of the money you earned Uur-
ng the four weeks you worked ? " In reply
o thin question General Kelley rcid from an
affidavit Miller had made vetting forth what
U83 ho made ot the money , Ho was driving a
earn which belonged to another man , The
agreement was that Miller wai to take care
of the tctm and provide feed for It and dlvldo
the net profits equally with the owner. Ho
earned $20 during the four weeks. Of this
amount $8 was paid for feed , $ i for barn
rent and the remaining $ S divided with the
owner of the team. The balance ot $1 was
used to buy medlclno for the sick mother and
provisions for the family. General Kelley
tuid the Associated Charities was called up
by telephone and requested to provide the
family with food and fuel. After considerable
discuasion the family was provided with an
order on a Sixteenth street grocery for 15
cunts worth of pork , and the general pro
duced the order In support of his assertion.
Groins and hlsscs greeted this showing and
the following resolution was Immediately in
troduced and paused with a whoop :
