WASHINGTON , Dec. 11. Representative
Johnson of North Dakota Is preparing a bill
providing for the complete extermination of
the seal herd of Bering sea , It Is on the
Hues of the bill proposed last year by Repre
sentative Dlngley , but Is much more brief
and makes the extermination unconditional ,
whereas Mr. Dlngley's moaauro provided ex
termination an an alternative If pelagic scal
ing was not stc-ppod. Mr. Johnson says the
recent Bering sea negotiations have further
demonstrated the Impossibility of stopping
seal poaching. The seal are yielding the
government nothing , ho says , < as the exclu
sive privilege of taking seals , granto.1 by the
government , has yielded only a few thou-
Biwto of dollars In commissions and In main
taining a patrol ot ships In Bering sea. He
Bays It has been amply demonstrated that
the seals arc a worthless asset and that ,
their extermination will < bo In the Interrs-
of peace nmoiiK nations and economy if-
the United States.

would be Jiccepted. Accordingly , the entry
wna sent nnd the homo competed with Uio

Not only hns a grcnt Injustice been done

with any man to commit u fraud , ns you

reasoning bo termed nw a ringer.
We. therefore , request , llrst , that your
board will rescind Its resolution disquali
fying our horse ; secondly , that you will
without delny forward us a check for nil
moneys won ; thirdly , that you , sir , Im
mediately retract your statement regard

that you cause , the retraction to bo pub

Tbo N'ebiaska Telephone comjcay has just
corcpleted the installation of acry efllcicnt
telephone system In the plant of the Cudaliy
Packing company.
Yesterday afternoon a
party composed of President Yost. General
Superintendent Vance Lane , Superintendent
D. D. Smith of th ? N'ebiaska Telephone com
pany and General &ujerlntendent Stephenson
of the American Telephone and Telegraph
cbrcrany visited the Cudahy phot and in
spected the new system before turning It
over.
The Cudahy Packing company has now the
largcat brunch telephone exchange west of
Chicago , the system including forty-six oets
of Instruments in the different departments of
the plant. Twelve of these Instruments can
bo used for Inter-communication between the
subscribers of the Omaha and South Omaha
exjhangcs , and can also be used In connec
tion with the thirty-four Instruments that
are local to the plant. Many of these Instru
ments are located on the desks of the heads
of departments so that they can call or be
called to tlie telephone without leaving the-lr
seats. The apparatus used In Installing this
private cxreango Is the very latest. When it
Is desired to call the central ofllce It Is simply
necessary to remove the hind telephone from
thp hook. This action operates a shutter on
the switch board In the cential olllcolilch
Indicates to the operator that a connection
Is wanted. So long as the Instruments .ire
being used a signal Indicates as much to the
crjcratcr anil all oral supervision of the con
nections made ls done away \\lth. it Is esti
mated by the Ciidahys that by the use of
this private exchange- great deal of time
can bo saved , especially by heads of depait-
ments.

The annual meeting of the stockholders of
the Union Stock Yards corrixiiiy will ho held
at the company's oflices liere on Monday.
According to the usual mode of procedure the
old directors will flist hold a meeting and
wind up their business , preparatory to nuking
the annual report to the stockholders. After
the reports have been discussed the polls
will ba opened and the stockholders will
proceed to vote for director ? . Tellers from
among the HtockholdcTs are appointed to can
vass the vote after the polls have been left
cpen a certain nmnbor of hours. When the
result Is announced the new directory will
most and elect officers for the year.
Ono of the first matters of Importance , to
be brought to the attention of tlio new di
rectory will bo the reduction of feed charges.
The live stock markets In the west have
within the last few weeks made a reduction
In feeding charges until now Chicago and
Omaha are the only two maintaining the old
standard of rales. Live stock owners and
commission men say that unless the charges
are reduced here , this market will suffer
because shippers will not pay $1 a bushel
for corn and $1 per 100 pounds for hay when
only about about two-thirds of that amount
\3 \ charge * ! at other points.

A petition headed by B. A. Cudahy , Dan
Cameron , P. J. JluseeH and M. Strauss was
handed to Mayor Knsor yentenlay afternoon
for transmission to tlio city council. The
petitioners urge that the council require the
railroads whoso tracks crofin the South
Omaha boulevard near the new roundhouse
of the Union Stock Yards company to station
a watchman nt that point , U Is asserted by
the petitioners that the constantly Increasing
number of trains and the topography of the
adjacent territory render this crossing ex
ceedingly dangerous to pedestrians and
teams.
The tracks which cross tlio boulevard at
the point mentioned belong -to the Missouri
Pacific and tlio Klkhorn roads. In this con
nection It Is understood that a number of the
llvo stock commission men at the exchange
will also present a petition asking for a flag
man at this crossing. Many of the men en
gaged In business hero llvo In Omaha and
drive down every morning. Within the laut
few days several have had narrow escapcD
from being run down by trains at the boule
vard crossing and the request for a watchman
naturally follows ,
