Passenger traffic on the Burlington to and from Omaha will bo materially affected by u now tlmo card , which will go Into opcra- 'tlon ' next Sunday. Owing to the Increased demand * upon the fiprvlco offered by No. 6 , the Chicago special which runs between Den ver and Chicago , It lias been found that this train cannot mnkn Its schedule tlmo rand Btop t all of the smnll ntatlons In western Nebraska n * heretofore It has dono. Consequently quently , under tha new tlmo card , No. 6 will not slop nt the ntntlons between Akron and McCooh except Vuma , Wray and Benkcl- man. The ntop at Indlanola will also be dlso illmiol. ( The business for these statlono. which hnvo been cut off the tlmo card from the "Chicago Special" will be handled by trains No. f > and 12 , which hcretoforo have been local passenger trains between Omaha and McCook. Under the now schedule these trains will run beUeen Omaha and Wray , Colo. Train No. G will leave Omaha on Its former time , 8:40 : a. m. , and reach Wray at 10:25 : p. m. No. 12 will leave Wray at D:20 : a. m. and reach Omaha on Its former time , 7:40 : p. in. Trains No. 43 and 41 , which heretofore hnvo been localB between Ornud Island nnd Omaha , will bo extended to Broken How , a dtntanco of eighty miles. No. 43 will leave Omaha for Broken Bow and Intermedi ate points at 8:40 : a. m. , nnd No. 44 will arrlvo from Broken Bow at 7:10 : p. m. This i-xtenslon Is made In order to relieve trains No. 41 nnd No. 42 , the regular Billings through trains , from stopping at points be tween Ravcna nnd Broken Bow , tratllc for whlrh point will hereafter be handled by the new Broken Bow-Omaha local trails. The Burlington road Is making arrange ments to equip the through trains on the pilling ? line with heavier cuglncs , as it has been demonstrated that the engines now In use are too light to meet the require ments.

MOORE MUST STAY IN JAIL .1 nil UP Cordon Decline * to Ailnilt HIP Sla > rr of John DcMolInn to Hall. Mute ns If he had lost the power of speech stood Charles Moore before Judge Gordon yesterday when ho was arraigned to answer to the charge of murder. Ho had no plea to'make In response to the com plaint which was rend by Deputy County Attorney Thomas. It accused him of having "killed John DeMollns unlawfully , felon iously , purposely and with premeditated mallco1' on the night of Julyt10 by three blows struck with his bare fists. His hear ing was set for next Wednesday morning at 8:30. : Attorney Baldrtgo asked the court to fix bond for the defendant , because he said the complaint charged no offense that Is not bailable. Ho said the mere accusation that Moore had killed DoMollns by blows ad ministered with his bare hands was not sufficient to hold him without ball. He re viewed the testimony adduced In the core ner's hearing and referred to the most Im portant points In support of his argument , referring to the Chollman case ns one In which bond had been given for the appear ance of the defendant. Deputy County Attorney Thomas objected o the release of the defendant at thin time , because ho said the court could not take cognizance of evidence which had been brought out nt the coroner's examination. Ho characterized the assault of DeMollns as ono of the most malicious murders that had aeon perpetrated In the community , nnd said that while Moore had no weapons In his hands his training as a prizefighter had made his clenched fists the most dangerous weapons which he could possess. Judge Gordon declined to name any bond , urging that ho wanted to hear the testimony in the case before he took any decisive ac- Llon. Moore was sent back to the county all to await his preliminary examination. TEAR DOWN A GERMAN FLAG I2plnode nt Ilonoluln Which Mny Cnnic Sonic Uiinlcan- UlltllCNH. HONOLULU. July 7. ( Via Victoria , B. C. , July 14. ) There was a flag Incident hero on the Fourth , of July which promises to bo made an International episode. Ca.rl Klomme , the proprietor of the Orpheum hotel , gaily decorated 'his ' building In Amer ican colors , hoisted the American flag over it and under the American flag the Gorman flag. A friend of his wanted to use an American flag and Klemme good-naturedly loaned htm his , leaving the German flag floating nlono from the flagstaff. J. H. West saw It and ordered Klemmo to haul It down. There had been Ill-will between the two men before and Klemme refused to take orders from his enemy. West thereupon gathered a lot of soldiers from the transport Sheridan and showed them the German flag floating on the Fourth of July In American territory. The soldiers at once proceeded to the roof , tore down the German flag nnd destroyed It and put Into its place some red , white and blue bunting torn from the other decorations of the building. West was today fined $100 in the police court for malicious mischief and the German consul general will make a report of the matter to his government.

He tied the horse In front of the station nnd went upstairs to see the city prosecutor. While he was ab sent some representatives of W. T. Senmnn unhitched the horse and took the phaeton nway. They attached a card to the harness , which was left on the horse , explaining that the vehicle had been taken to secure the remainder of the sum due upon It. Bradley was much surprised when he cnmo out nnd found that the phaeton had been taken. Mr. Seaman claims that lie had a right to remove the vehicle by virtue of the lien which he holds upon It. Interim ! Ilrvemio rollee < lon . Collector of Internal Revenue J. K. Houtz has completed his report for the flscat year ending June 30. The collector Is radiant over the showing made. The territory , com prising Nebraska nnd the tWo DaUotas , Is the largest , geographically considered , of nny collector In the United States. The total amount collected Is $3,428,079.38. which Is a round million In excess of the collections of 1808 nnd two million nhcad of the collec tions of 1897. The cost of collection was 1'4 per cent as against 1 4-6 per cent for 1S9S and 3'i per cent for 1897. This Is less than the cost of collection of any other collector In the country , even whore the collector had but a single state under his care. The amount was swelled this year by the addi tional tax consequent on the war. The Btnmpt collections amounted to $607,111,51 , which doc1 ? not Include the speclar tax nnd the levy on bankers and brokers.

Health Commissioner Spaldlng Is not of the opinion that the site selected Thursday by the advisory board nnd city council for the emergency hospital will over do for a permanent one. He recommended the ac ceptance of the place for a term of five years because it promises to be fairly satisfactory and the arrangement will relieve the city officials nnd the citizens of their numerous controversies on the subject long enough to allow the excitement to subside nnd the peopfo to learn that an emergency hospital Is not such a bugaboo as It Is credited with being. Dr. Spaldlng says he would oppose any proposition to buy the Forbes property and that the city must , before the expira tion of the lease , buy n suitable tract of land In some more desirable locality than the river bottoms.

The status ot the affair nt present j Is that the ordinance passed by the city j council at Its last regular meeting , declaring j the viaduct a necessity , approving the plans ' i of the city engineer nnd providing for the appraisement of damages , Is In the hands 1 ot the mayor , awaiting his approval. If It Is approved It will b ? sent to the council next Tuesday evening , probably accompanied by nn appointment of appraisers. If there nro no non-resident property owners along the street to be bridged over the appraisement of damages can bo finished within forty or fifty days. If some of the owners live out of the city , notice by pub- j llcatlon must be had. which will make the process of appraisement last at least sixty days. It was suggested by a member of ( ho council that ns the new viaduct will occupy the slto and position of the old one there would > be no damages besides these awarded at the tlmo the present structure was put up , but oven If the greater width ot the new viaduct Is not found a caliso for additional damages , the appraisers must cotno to that conclusion In exactly the same manner ns though the appraisement were an original one. The removal of the old viaduct Is being carried on to the satisfaction of the city engineer nnd the time limit of the contract , August 1 , will doubtless find the work of removal completed.
