All railroads leading In and out of Omaha
are being attacked with fast train spasms
nnd the first month of 1S09 will go down In
the history of western lines as one In which
inoro records were broken and more fast
echodults Introduced than for many year ; *
The Burlington nnd Northwestern flycra
came In ahead of time again vosterday , '
having made their third race across the 1
DOO-mlle all etch from Chicago to Omaha
without a hitch. The Northwestern arrived
at 8:12 : , three minutes ahead of the schedule ,
and thu Burlington reached the transfer at
7-60 five minutes before its schedule called
for Uio arrival of the train. Neither com
pany had any special Incidents of the trip
to report and nil employes In the operating
departments of the two roads act ns If a
mile 'or every forty seconds consumed is
nn cvery-day affair.
But the event that ia calculated to com
plicate matters in western railroad circles
more than even the race aqalnst time between -
tweon the Northwestern and the Uurllngton
lines Is the published plan of the Rock
Island to bring a new train into Omaha
carrying passengers as well as the eastern
fast mall nearly two hours ahead of present
j > assennor schedules between Omaha and
Chicago.
\VJ11 HP a Pljpr.
Sunday night the Rock Island will start
Us train from Chicago at 7-C5 o'clock , put
ting it tate Omaha at 8 tha next morning.
This train will make connection enrouto at
Englewood with the Lake Shore and get Its
Bboro of the fast mall , as well ns bringing
n passenger equipment along. The train will
bo the Chlcngo-Omahft fl > er.
Other trains out of Chicago for the Mis
souri river points leave at 6 and G0 : ; ! , giv
ing the Rock Island a clear lead of one
horn- and twcnty-flvo minutes over present
kchedules of trains carrying passengers.
For a long time , by common consent , the
Chicago-Omaha lines have consumed four
teen and fifteen hours between Chicago nnd
Omaha. No positive agreement on this
time was over In existence , but each com
pany regarded a reduction In that tlmo In
the nature of a cut in rates and abstained
from a change of schedule that would re
quire faster time. The Rock Island's break
in this direction Is liable to force other
competing lines to reduce the time of their
fastest pob&enger trains , or perhaps put a
passenger equipment on the present mall
fljers.
The representative of one Chicago-Omaha
line said thnt his company would probably
reduce the tlmo of the regular Omaha evenIng -
Ing train to meet the tlmo of the proposed
Rook Island train. Agent Rutherford ot
the Rock Ibland is very enthusiastic over
the departure of his company and asserts
that in future the Rock Island will bo an
active factor In the fast mall service be
tween the cast nnd west , as well as continu *
ing In the bunch of leaders for fast pas-
fctnger service , It Is no secret that othcf
Chicago-Omaha lines can make this time
with ense and a general reduction of the
time of the passenger trains of those lines
U likely to follow the Rock Island's change.
MKHIiY TO IllICOMU GCNCIIAL.
Opinion Mint Flint Mnll Trnlnn Will
lie oil All Itouiln.
Tdo fast trains from the east brought In
the biggest mall that has been carried since
the new service was Inaugurated. It was
found nocebsary to put on a number of ad
ditional clerks to handle the mall out of
Oniuha. Three extras were added to the
force of the Union Pacific and two to that
on the Uurllngton.
Railway mall oHicl.ils Incline to thg opin
ion that the piesent contest is the begin
ning ot a general free-for-all among the
various routes In vvhlcli records will bo
broken all over the country. They expect
that nlnco the Rock Island and Milwaukee )
have taken places In the race between Chicago
cage and Omaha it will be only a question
of a short time until similar races will been
on ttio card between rival lines In other
localities.
It will not be surprising if something of
this sort occurs on the lines between St.
Paul and Chicago , Chicago und St. Louis
nnd various other terminal points. Then It
la whispered that the Northern Pacific is
getting fixed to mix it up with the Union
Pacific for the haul to the coast and alto-
g ther the prospects are for some lively
tlm a unless the roads docldo to got to
gether.
Ono effect of the new service is to secure
nn earlier delivery of registered mall In
Omaha. The registered matter that has
previously been delivered on the following
morning Is now delivered on the afternoon
of the day on which It is received.

The refusal of County Attorney Shields
to appoint Thomas Lee as one of his as-
Blhtanta , It is said , will stir up some dis
satisfaction. The Crelghton-Smyth end ot
the local democracy wanted joung Leo to
have the place , but the desire of the Jnck-
sonlan club Is said to have had the pre
ponderance ot influence , Dunn was the
choice of the Jackaonlan club. Mr. Lee
for some time past had been lolling his
friends that ho would get a deputyshlp and
he has been Industriously making a study
of the duties required.
Mr. Shields expects to have n. fourth dep
uty In Lee Helsley If the county commls-
Bloners will allow it. It Is tbo Intention
to have Helsley look after the work in the
police court.
Shields hopes to get a fusionlst in the
place now held by John Norberg , president
of the Garfield Republican club. Norberg's
position Is that of ft court bailiff. Ho has
been used by the county attorney to look
up evidence. An application has already
been put In by Shields to haeV. . Gunsolas
appointed to this position. Judge Slabaugh
takes the ground that the appointment of
the bailiff rests with the court.

There are only three more opportunities to
see the ierv excellent bill that the Grclgh-
ton-Orpheum theater Is offering this week.
If you miss these three chances you are
missing ono of the greatest dog and monkey
acts over seen on exhibition in this or any
other country. Then , again , you miss the
act of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Milton Royle ,
which Is ono of the cleverest bits seen hero
in many a day. In fact jou will miss in
not seeing the entire bill the best bill ever
shown at this theater and certainly you
cannot afford to allow the children to miss
the dog and monkey act Saturday afternoon.
It will cost but a dlmo to ohow them a per
formance that Is especially appealing to
them. On Saturday night the dog and mon
key act will open the performance , as Prof.
Ma car to has to leave for Kansas City at
10.05 In order to open at the Orpheum the
ater there Sunday afternoon.
An li-ipresslon prevails In the minds of
some that the majority of the twenty people
who will present the act "Clorlndy , " which
depicts the origin of the cako.valk , which
opens at this theater Sunday afternoon , are
local colored people. All of these people
belonsc in the east and are the pick of the
best colored cakewalkers and artists They
were selected by E. E. Rice , the extrava
ganza originator and manager , who origi
nated the act. They travel in their own
ear , Just the same as all traveling compa
nies. Mr. and Mrs Tutt. winners of the
prize at the big Cakewalk recently held at
Madison Square Garden. New York , are the
stars of the company. It Is ono of the moat <
talked-of acts in the vaudeville field.
No dramatic creation for years has awak
ened such a furore of admiration and pop
ular applause as ndmond Holland's "Cyrano
do Dergerac , " which will bo put on next
week at the Doyd theater by the Wood
ward Stock company , with Mr. Wilson Enos
In the title role. This production entails
considerable expense above the ordinary
production , owing to the size of the cast and
the manner In which It is put on.

The implement dealers had a lively ses
sion Thursday In disposing of two or
three Items of business. The commission
question , which occupied so much tlmo
Wednesday afternoon , came up again , but
was left unsettled became of tliroe proposed
solutions of the matter , none of which could
command a majority of the members of the
association.
The report of the committee on resolutions
attracted .1 largo degree of attention because
of thu matters touched upon. The resolu
tions pledge the members of the association i
not to buy goods of any wholesale house
which sells direct to consumers , nor are
they to handle any goods put out by those
houses ; men vvlio deal with catalogue houses
arc to be published and avoided In business
relations , and the principle of mulual Ore
Insurance Is endorsed
The grievance committee made a report
which Involved lengthy debate.
It seems that ono of the Omaha whole-
salers hns been detected In retailing vehicles
at wholesale prices and the association demands -
mands that the house pay the commission
to the nearest dealer or Into the treasury of
the association. This question will be re-
ferred to the Hoard of Directors to settle
after the final adjournment of the annual
meeting.
The election of officers resulted as followsi

Topic * I mler UlM'iiNMlon.
Following the election of ottlccrs there
was a program of short talks on various
subjects , and nearly 300 people were in the
convention hall. The first address was by
H. C. Staver of the Staver Carriage oom'l
pany of Chicago. The speaker sought to
Impress upon the letallers the fact that
they must learn to f < ice the evils In their
business . , Instead of trying to overcome
then by resolving that they are bad. Ho
said the retailer Is largely responsible for
the ? existence of catalogue houses , in that
they are In HID habit of taking too much
of . a profit on their goods. He argued that
the . . . best way to Kill off an undesirable com
petitor Is to Ignore him nnd give strict at
tention to one's own tude. He said the retailer
talk can buy goods and sell them at a
profit and jet compete with the catalogtio
houses , which ho Insisted have come to
stay and are backed by ample capital.
C. C. Wright of this city talked on cred
its. Ho said that retailers must do busi
ness on credit. Credit Is based on confi l-
dene in the honesty of the dealer and ln
the community. The standard of honesty
U being elevated jear after year. He urged
tha retailers to buy their goods in their
own names and look to good contracts in
making sales. Ho considered It no kind I-
ness to extend credit to a man who has not >
the faculty of caring for his own business ,
for business cannot be conducted on Kind '
ness or charity and bo successful. Ho told
them to depend less upon the law , for the
more they avoid law in
their business the
better they will be off. The salvation 10f
the retailer , ho said , Is in curtailing credit
and making sure of getting the money for
the goods sold.
Rev. S. Wright Butler closed the exer
cises with one of his characteristic talks , In
which ho put the listeners all in good humor ,
and for the time retailer and jobber forgot
the difficulties existing between them , good
feeling prevailing with all.
At the conclusion of this address the meetIng -
Ing took a recess while the dealers assem
bled outaldo , vvhero a group picture was
taken.
Upon reassembling some routine business
was disposed of and the eighth annual meetIng -
Ing ot the association came to nn end.
The three dajs' session closed last night
with a ( .pedal session at the Commeiclal
club , which furnished
a thoroughly
enjoy
able ending to the deliberations. A few Yof
the visitors had gone homo on the afternoon
trains , but a couple ot hundred of them
remained over for the
concluding festivities
and enough traveling men Joined them ton
fill the cfnb rooms.
The evening was spent in a purely In
formal manner. An excellent orchestra ren
dered a promenade program , while the vis
itors disposed themselves ns comfortably as
posslbjo and entered heartily Into the so
cial felicities of the occasion. Liter In oho
evening a lunch , consisting of cold turkey ,
sandwiches and coffee , was served in the
dining room and a lingo punch bo\\l in ono
corner furnished what additional refresh
ment was required. The entertainment
committee , which consists of r. L. Loomls ,
Euclid Martin and C. D. Hlbbard , had charge
of the reception. ,

. Orders ' wcro Issued to the Twentieth in
fantry late Wednesday from the War de
partment to leave- Fort Lcavenworth on
Wednesday . . of next week for San Francisco ,
Upon its arrival In that city the regiment
will ' go on board the transport Scandla at
once , which is expected to sail about
January 15.
Under this arrangement the first battalion
of the regiment will leave Wednesday morn
ing at 9 o'clock over the Burlington , the
second ' battalion two hours later over the
,
Rock Island and the third battalion nt
1 o'clock Wednesday afternoon over the Mis-
sourl Pacific. With the third battalion goes
the headquarters aud band of the icglment.
This division of time is necessary to prouase
vide for a proper embarkation of the com-
niand. The first battalions will meet Iu
Denver , and all three will unite at Ogden ,
where the regiment will be InKen over the
Central Pacific railway. The heavy freight
ot the regiment , which only filled six cars ,
wan taken west from the fort over the Santa
Fo _ last Tuesday.
The regiment will be paid before Its de
parture ; from , the fort. The pay rolls have
j
been sent for and are expected by every
mall. ' Major Monaghan , who has been as
signed the duty of pajlng off this post , hopes
to get the rolls extended in tlmo for lilm
to leave Omaha Saturday night for Fort
Leavcnwoith. . . As the paymaster's force in
this department is short of help just now *
the major will have to pay the Twentieth
regiment and the four troops of cavalry
which are IICMV at this fort without as
sistance.
Major W. U. Graham , assistant paymaster ,
who has been attached to this department
for the last two months , has gone to Wosn-
ington and New York cnroute to his now
station In Havana. The major IB one of
the volunteer appointments , his home being
In Iowa. Ho recently received orders to re
port to General Leo nt Havana , and will
serve under Major Smith , chief paymaster.
After a short visit at Washington he will
go to New York , from which point ho will
sail.
The condition at Fort Crook is still
crowded and Inconvenient. It is not be-
lleved now that any portion of the troops
there will be transferred to another post ,
though It is expected the regiment may bo
ordered at any time to move to the Philip
pines. The opinion Is expressed at head-
quarters that ono battalion of the regi
ment may bo embarked on the transport
Ohio , which Is now due at San Francisco.
Second Lieutenant William P. Cicary of
the Second Infantry , who has Just been
promoted first lieutenant in the Twelfth
Infantry , Is in the city visiting his motner
and elstor. He win leave today for
Jefferson barracks to join his regiment , and
his mother and sister will accompany him
there and also to the PhllliiDlnea.

Another restraining order pending a
final hearing has been granted William
Kelley and against the South Omaha Live

vent the transfer of Kelley's membership
In the exchange to John Ralston.
According to a rule of the exchange if at
a certain date a member still has outstand
ing obligations duo other members , his
certificate of membership may bo declared
forfeited and sold. Kelley had endorsed a
note to Sullivan , but urged that it was
compromised by the pajment of n sum
smaller than Its face value. Sullivan had
the matter brought before tbo exchange
and Kelley's membership was about to bo
transferred to Ralston , a third party , when
the suit was brought.
