12 THIS OMAHA DAILY BEEt TUESDAT , ITEBRUABY 14 , 1890. REMAIN OUTSIDE THE FOLD Colorado nnd Utah Shnn the Western Pas senger Association ! PREFER A TRANSMISSOURI ORGANIZATION JDcnvcr Mcptltiflr of I'nuncnKcr Audits In Not Ationilod IT Hh AnItc - n Vlc x of niul Smith. Colorado and Utah railroads arc not ready ( o como Into the Western Passenger associa tion. The commltteo from the association which went to Denver fast week to consult with the managers of those roads , failed to accomplish any great amount of results. The Missouri Pacific and the Colorado Mid land were not represented tit the meeting at all. The representative ! ! of the Denver & Rio Grande , Hlo Grande Western and Oregon Short Line virtually refused to have any thing to do with the Western Passenger as- Boolatlon , signifying a preference for a trana- mlssourl association. The Colorado South ern , whllo willing to respect any agreement mode by Its connecting lines , preferred not to become a member of theassociation. . The Santa Fo declared It was the Western as- eoelatlon or nothing , and that It would not Bpllt Its line at the Missouri river for a transmlssourl aesoclatlon. The Hock Island and Durllngton expressed preference for the Western association , but would go into a transmlssourl agreement If ono was found necessary. The Union Pacific favored the tranamlssourl association , but would go Into the other If Ufl connecting lines did llko- vrlse. Mr. Lomnx did suggest that If the Colorado Southern would respect the Union Pacific's tariff agreement , ho might consent to accept the Western association agree ment , but he preferred to have this road also U. member of the association. Will Try It A Kill 11. This Is as far as the conference came to reaching an agreement , and another meeting was sot for Chicago for the first of next Week , at which few of the western lines will be represented. It la hoped by the other roada , from the position taken by Mr. Loraax at Denver , that the Western Pas senger association agreement will bo ac cepted by the Union Pacific , and the bicker ing among the roads como to an end. Jlr. Lomnx , In talking of the prospect , said : "I still maintain that tho.transmls- Bourl association Is the farleat "for " the Union Pacific road. The Missouri river Is the natural dividing lino. It Is so accepted Jn other lines of traffic. The conditions west of the Missouri are different from those cast , and It Is not reasonable to place rail roads In Nebraska , Wyoming , Colorado and "Utah on the same footing : with roads la Illinois and Iowa. " A. II. Smith of the Durllngton , who repre sented that road at the Denver conference , is hopeful. Ho said ! "I thllric there Is a Good prospeet of our getting together on the Western Passenger association agreement. Sir. Lomnx made a number of concessions at Denver which will bo the means of remov ing much of the objection heretofore raised to the agreement. I believed that an agree ment , effective as to Colorado points , will bo mudo at the Chicago meeting. " IT GIVES OMAHA THE GO-IIY. i to llini KM Fnnt Train l > r Way or Plnitmiiontli. Two Important results In the Burlington's announced change In time are that the new Denver train will give Omaha the go-by , and that the daylight train to Chicago will be discontinued. Thcao points will not be men- rtloncd In the tlmo card , but they are none * ho less patent. The present No. 1 goes ( through Omaha ft about mldnlghtrbut alter ; JSioxt Stfriday ft will1 cross ffo'm Plattsmouth \o L'lncoln , through Ashland. Much of the tlmo eaved between Chicago and Denver by rtho now tlmo card Is cut off by making the run over that line , and an there Is always an excuse for everything done by a railroad , It Is advanced that no one would take this train from Omaha to Denver and arldo all day , when by leaving hero In the evening they can roach Denver In the mornIng - Ing after a good night's rest. Under the now card No. 1 will leave Chi cago'at 6 o'clock In the evening and reach Taclflo Junction about 5 o'clock In the morn- Ing. For a portion of the distance between Chicago and the Missouri river the running tlmo almost equals that of No. 7 , the fast mall. From Chicago to Galeaburg the fast mall's tlmo Is three hours and sixteen min utes , and that of No. 1 will be three hours and thirty minutes. Most of the fast run- ail DJ : by this train , however , will be made cast "of the Mississippi river. Burlington of ficials say this train will be the quickest service now In force In the country for a distance of 1,000 miles. In doing away -with the daylight trains between Omaha and Chicago , the Burlington 'lias changed the time of Not 6 , which will leave Denver at 9:80 : a. m. Instead of 1:40 : p. m. , leaving Omaha at 12:30 : a. m. and arriving in Chicago at 2:15 : p. m. It Is al leged that this train will shorten the time ( between Denver and Now York about three hours. The Important change In No. C , as has al ready been announced , will bo In shortening its tlmo between Chicago and Omaha two hours and fifteen minutes. This will all bo made up by leaving Chicago later , except live minutes in an earlier arrival at Omaha. The train will leave Chicago at 8 o'clock Instead of G:50 : p. m. and arrive hero at 8 n. m. Instead of 8:05 : a. m. From this point west tba tlmo will remain unchanged. Whllo the Burlington has officially given notice that these changes are to bo made next Sunday , thcro Is a well defined feeling that many things may happen during tbo coming- week which may partially alter the plans of the road , chief of which Is an agreement by the roads to abandon the fast train service. IIKST OF FiiJMN IS TCXI.STIXG. Villon I'ni'lUo MnmtKi'iiiPiit mill Tele- urniiliom to Get Together. By mutual agreement the Order of Rail way Telegraphers of the Union Pacific and tbo general manager of the road have post poned action on the now rules for the gov ernment of the telegraphers until March 1. The committee of the telegraphers had a conference with Mr. Dickinson , and that official requested , owing to the many Im portant matters demanding his attention at this time , which will require his absence from the city at frequent intervals , that the matter bo deferred until the tlmo specified , nd the commltteo granted It. The commltteo was courteously received toy Mr. Dickinson , and It bellevoa from what tbo general manager said that the company will deal fairly with Its employes in the telegraph department , and feels confident that when the conference is held it will reach an amicable understanding- Buys they can como to gether the first of next month and finish up the work at one sitting , while It It Insisted on action now tbo sessions would -bo Inter rupted and no tlmo gained.

THIRTEEN YEARS FOR COOK Ilnlcct- Put * One of the nnd Short Men" Out of llnrin'H AVny. Judge Baker returned from his California trip much Improved In health and ho at once took up the criminal business of the district court , About the first thing done was the sentencing of John Cook , alias John Rlloy. Cook and his associate In crime , John McDonald , alias "Soapy" McDonald , com mitted a series of robberies last September. Among the persons held up and relieved of various sums of money and what valuables could bo found In their pockets were Henry Humpert , 1443 South Sixteenth street ; An ton Francl , 1218 South Fourteenth street ; James Roouoy , 547 South Twenty-fifth avcnuo , nnd James Slpp of 1911 South Four teenth street. Cook and McDonald became known as "the long and short men , " Cook 'being ' the short one. McDonald jumped his ball. His father , Michael , was his surety on each of f our bonds of $1,000 , McDonald and Cook being charged jointly with robbery In each of the four Instances. Cook , having been In jail ever since his arrest , concluded io go before the court and plead guilty to the specific charge of rob bing Humpert. He was sentenced by Judge Baker to thirteen years In the penitentiary. Several prisoners were arraigned , but they nil pleaded not guilty , except Mike Corcoran , 'Who ' admitted his guilt of the charge , of forging some Armour & Co. pay checks.

SECRETARY SMITH RETURNS Su > - That Sentiment In WaiihliiKton " In Largely In Favor of Orenter America Uxponltlon. Secretary Dudley Smith of the Greater America Exposition has returned from Washington , where ho spent several days assisting to promote the passage of the bill recognizing the enterprise. Ho says that the exciting debate over the peace treaty and the vigorous fight over the appropria tions for public 'buildings have made It al most impossible to secure action on the exposition bill. But very effective work bus been done In Its interest in the interval and it is now expected that It will pass without serious difficulty. So positive Is the exposition management of this result that a meeting of the executive committee will probably be called at once to elect a permanent president and secretary. Among others -who were seen In Wash ington by Secretary Smith was Dr. Marcus Benjamin of the Smithsonian Institution , who Is most enthusiastically In favor of the exposition. Dr. Benjamin says that Omaha has an extraordinary opportunity and that an exposition along the lines pro posed can bo made n great success. He has already written a review of the scope and character of the undertaking for an encyclopedia. Ohiicrvc Illrthiliiy of Lincoln. Sunday being anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln , considerable promi nence has been given ito his life and char acter in tbo work of the local schools. There In no general or designated observ ance , hut each teacher suggests such ex orcises as are considered expedient and these follow the same general character In all the schools. In most cases what special ex orcises wore held occurred FrldUy afternoon although thcro were Elmpla observances In sorno of the rooms yesterday. In a general way the pupils are made acquainted with norno of the most sallout Incidents of Lin coln's life , which are illustrated by essays or recitations.

ZERO WEATHER SEEMS MUCH LIKE SUMMER Co I il Wave of tlic I.imt I'crv In > I'tinlicd Smith 11 ml Cntclici ( lie Ilcnldcntn Alonn the Unit Const. When the early riser consulted the ther mometer on his back porch Monday morning and found It only a few degrees below the zero point he was moved to get out his light overcoat and summer underwear. In view of the extraordinary conditions of the last few weeks , a temperature that would ordinarily bo considered an extreme of frigidity seemed like a breath from Ulyslan fields , and the people turned down their fur collars and rode down town on the out side of the motor trains with all the com fort of nn April morning. It wasn't so very warm nt that , for the temperature was down to 9 below during the night , yet It moderated rapidly toward morning. At 7 o'clock the government thermometer said B below nnd from that hour it rose steadily until by the tlmo ordinary business avocations were be gun the atmosphere was really enjoyable. Further west the change was oven more marked than along the Missouri river. In Montana the temperature has risen GO de grees In the last forty-eight hours , and through the Dakotas the mercury runs In the 20's above zero , Instead of being from 20 I * 38 bo low , as previously. The area of high barometer has been propelled south ward , until It hangs over the gulf and Its place has been supplied by a low barometer that has crowded In from the northwest and Insures a rising temperature for at least the next twenty-four hours. But whllo people here are enjoying the change from the most intense cold to almost normal conditions , the people In the east and south are catching it where this locality left off. Very low temperatures rule all through the cast , and down south , where the people are scarcely prepared for It , they are ex periencing a cold snap that Is almost un precedented In their recollection. The zero line hits Winnipeg nnd Louisiana alike , and all along the southern tier zero weather prevails. It was only C degrees above zero at New Orleans and it was below zero at Shreveport and at points In Alabama , Mis sissippi and Gcorga. { These are extraordi nary conditions In a country where the people ple have none of the provisions for keeping warm that are necessary In more rigorous latitudes , and in the raw , damp southern air the cold Is felt with an intensity that cannot bo appreciated by the northern bred. If it is any consolation to know that the southern ers are suffering far moro keenly in their zero atmosphere than people hero did when It was 30 degrees below Nebraskans can en joy that satisfaction to the limit. HE BECOMES TOO FAMILIAR For TryliiR to Mix Up irlth WUHanm , Eildclmnu la Landed In the City Jail. Alonzo Eddelman , Twelfth and Vlnton streets , has been arrested by Offlcar Johnson. The officer saw Eddelman at the station talkIng - Ing with R M. Williams of Flattsmouth , and finally both were seen going around behind the building. After the arrest , Williams told the officer that Eddelman tried to scrape up an acquaintance with him. Eddelman saM he was going to Pacific Junction and the two could travel together If Williams would re main over. Ho offered Williams a place to sleep. Eddelman was arrested recently on the charge of taking a revolver , which was recovered later In a pawnshop. ' The owner declined to prosecute him. He will have a trial as a suspicious character Tuesday after noon. Minor 1'ollcc Court Matter * . Efl Cuthbertson was discharged from custody , as Charles Matteson did not want to prosecute htm for assault. Matteson said that Cuthbertson pushed htm off the sidewalk and laid him out by contact with EOino bard substance. August Radcllffe filed a complaint against Mrs. Patterson , 912 South Elventh street , charging her -with assault and battery of his daughter , Lucy Radcllffe. Several drunks wore before Judge O rdon John Jay , the old match peddler , Bald ho had taken a couple of beers , but was not drunk. His honor asked him how long It had been since ho was in the county jail and the old man responded that it was so long ho had forgotten what particular de sign had been used in its frescoing. Ho was discharged. John Carrlngton got five days In jallt The others were given some good advice and warned not to appear before his honor again. Announcement * . Madnmo Carrono might have had tts great a success as an opera singer as she has had as a pianist. It was In Edinburgh , Scotland , that she established the fact and at the same tlrao saved the veteran manager , Colonel Mapleeon , from a difficult situation. The pianist had played with success CTI the con tinent and was resting In the Scotch capital before making her London appearance. Maplcson had announced "Les Huguenots" for the quean's birthday and tbo house was sold out. Three days before the performance the singer who was cast for the part of the Queen was taken desperately ill. Ma pies on telegraphed all over the country. Bvery sin per within three day * ' Journey who coirid sing the part wan engaged. Knowing Madame Carreno's great musical talsnt and having heard her stag in private lie pro posed "that Bhe should sing Iho role of Queen. Madame Carrono , then a young girl In her teens , laughed at the Idea. Maplwon wan desperate. Ho told her that she alcao could sayo the performance , "I will elag on ono condition , " she said , "give me the ringers thnt I want for my London concert. " Maplcson was only tioo happy .to consent. After she had 'learned ' the role and was ready to appear she grew frightened at the risk of the undertaking. If she should fall her London prospects a * a pianist would bo injured Irretrievably , There was no es cape , however , so she assumed a stage name and on her appearance scored a great suc cess in the role. Thle great artist will give one of her superb recitals at Boyd's theater on Friday ufterntoon at 2:30 : , using the Chlckorlng piano. The advance sale opens at the box office at 9 o'clock Thursday morning. The newspapers unequivocally commend the entertainment at the Orpheura.

MINERS SEEK SAFER HOMES Probability That Kntnl Will lie Follovrctl hr Other * Kqnnlly Severe. DENVER , Feb. 13. < A special to the Times from Silver Plume , Colo. , says : Many people ple living in cabins on tbo mountain sides are moving today In order to avoid possible death In snow slides , such aa that which swept down Cheyenne canon yesterday , kill ing at least ten persons. Much heavier masses of snow than that which came down yesterday still cling to the mountain sides and are liable to become dislodged at any moment. The bodies of the missing men who wcro carried away In the avalanche of yesterday are still being hunted for. So far eight bodies have been recovered. Thrco men who were caught in the slide wore taken out with only slight bruises and they will recover. It Is known that thirteen per sons wcro In the slldo and that two are missing. Possibly a dozen more were caught by the slide , but the Italians who lived In the canyon are averse to giving information. The men who were saved say that It was by a miracle , for they -wore un able to get out of the way of the moving mass of snow. The bodies of Destefano nnd of Joseph Tonondl have been recovered. Where the slide finally stopped the drift Is 300 feet across , and from fifty to seventy-five In depth. It Is fully 1,500 In length. The drift Is filled with timbers and boul ders , and the reecuo party found It almost Impossible at times to dig into the hard mass. The rescue party -was made up of the mining and business men of this place and Georgetown , and they worked In relays. Ropes were used.'and sometimes seventy-five men would bo hauling away on them to get a big log out of the snow. At Destefano's cabin no trace of the man oould be found. The roof of the cabin was taken off and the sides were crushed in. On itho floor sat the body of the wife. On one sldo was the boy , as if kneeling In prayer , whllo directly In front of the mother was the little girl of 2 years In the same suppli cating attl'tude. ' Tbo mother was leaning over the little girl as If giving her protec tion. All thrco were dead. The enow was packed solidly around them. The ere houses of itho Pelican and Carey City mines are swept away , and It estimated that $50,000 worth of ere TTS.Q carried into the basin between the mountains and lost. The Times correspondent has just re turned from a trip , over the gulches through which the elide came. , There Is little doubt LhaIt the slide. ahad continued a few lundred feet. .moro many of the inhabitants of Silver Elumo. would 'have been swept away by the avalanche. Only a. portion of the snow broke away from the top of the divide and fully two thlfds remains there now. If 'this should break , the town of Silver Plume Is doomed. Nothing can pos sibly prevent Itrom being swept out of existence with terrible loss of life. FASCINATOR THE ONLY CLEW Deail Body of Ptlurht Watchman la Found -with Woman' * Garment Ilentdc It. CLEVELAND , Feb. 13. Jacob Geberand , night fireman at the Hunt Stamping works , on Hlckox street , was found dead In the boiler room of the plant early today , having been stabbed through the heart. The case Is shrouded In mystery. The motive for the crlmo was evidently not burglary , for Ge- be rand's money and watch were found on his body. Appearances Indicated that the murdered man made a valiant struggle foi life. The only clew found was a woman'E knit fascinator -which was lying near the body. The theory Is advanced by the police that Qedcrand may have been holding clandestine meetings with the woman ant : that a lover or husband witnessed the meet ing and killed Qobcrand. The murdered man was 40 years old and ! had a wife and children. DISTINCT EARTHQUAKE FELT TenneitBcr and OIilo Trrnilile for Ten Hecoiidn , l > at Xo Diimnfft : ! Ilciinrtcd.
