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

local passenger trains between Omaha and
McCook. Under the now schedule these

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

peremptorily Instruct the Jury to nnd that
the defalcation occurred during Bartloy's
second term , an shown by the evidence In

MOORE MUST STAY IN JAIL

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

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.

Levl Bradley borrowed Jnmes Braxton's
horse and phaeton yesterday to drive
down to the police station for the purpose
of flllnc a complaint against Harry Wooley ,
2537 Patrick avenue , whom he charged with
keeping a vicious dog. 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 seemlnfc Inactivity of the council and
other onicors of the oily administration In
the matter of the Sixteenth street viaduct
Is frequently remarked on by those who do
not understand the many steps which must
i ho taken before any apparent progress can
bo made. 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 ,

When theater goers have an opportunity
of hearing a slide trombone played by n
woman they are seeing nnd hearing some
thing that Is n decided novelty. The slide
trombone Is ono of the most difficult ot
musical Instruments to play , oven by a
man , whose lips are alwnys heavier and
lungs stronger. This novelty act , which Is
presented by Miss Josephine Harvey. Is ono
of the features of the excellent blir offered
at the Trocadcro theater this week and
there are only two more performances left
to hear It In , this afternoon nnd evening.
The Indian band from the government In
dian school nt Prcscott , Ariz. , which Is
now fllflng nn engagement , has been Invited
to attend today's matinee at this popular
amusement resort and will render n num
ber of selections. The Chicago Ladies'
quartet will sing Paul Dresser's newest cong ,
entitled "There's Where My Heart Is To
night , " for the first time on any stage
this afternoon and evening. Their engage
ment during the week has been quite a
triumph for the theater and everybody who
has heard them pronounces their act ono
of the biggest hits ever seen In vaudeville.
ZazeHo and Vernon please everybody with
their comical bar act and burlesque boxIng -
Ing bouts. The balance of the bill Is equally
as Interesting and no one leaves the the
ater disappointed.
The Woodward Stock company will give
Its first matinee for children this afternoon.
The attendance has increased at each per
formance all this week , which speaks well
for the production of "Tho Wife. " Com
mencing with the matinee tomorrow the
company win be seen in nn elaborate pro
duction of "Tho Girl I Left Behind Mo. "
Today children 10 cents to all parts of the
