LINCOLN. June 24. (Special.) - The
and Nebraska Association of Coal V r
began It annual session her i;fci iIi-.r-noon.
Formal sddresses of welcome ani
responses consumed a half hour after whlrh
President Chlsliam of Omaha reaU iU an
nual address, dealing at length with the
purpose and achievement of the organiza
tion. The total membership waa reported
to be 597, an Increase of 111 during the year.
It waa pointed out that there are still
nearly 2.000 dealers In both atatea who are
not In the association. '
One of the most Important matters to
be adjusted Is the devising of means to
prevent wholesalers from shipping coal
direct to individuals within the retailers'
district. They say that they are getting
ground between two millstone. They must
buy for cash during the summer a lot of
coal to be. sold later, thus putting their
money In the hands of the operator long
before the retailer has a chance to realize
on It, and yet a. big individual consumer
can. when he wants it, send direct to the
wholesaler and get It as cheaply as the
retailer. The operators run their mines
all summer, but at the expense of the re
tailers. They don't want their capital Idle
and compel the retailer to buy between
April 1 and July L If be declines to order
then he will not get It later when he wants
It. The mine owner and the laboring men,
the retailers say, are doing business on
capital furnished by them, and they object
to the practice of selling to consumers
after they have had their capital tied up
for months.
The railroad demurrage problem Is an
other vexatious one. The roads will delay
shipments for days at a time, and compel
the shipper to wait their convenience, but
If he delays over twenty-four hours in un
loading It he Is charged up $1 a day. The
association proposes to try for a system of
demurrage whereby the average time con'
sumed In emptying cars Is taken as the
basis of charge.
The evening waa spent In a social session
at the rooms of the Lincoln Coal club.
Told to Get Ready.
. William Rhea, the condemned murderer,
waa told by Governor Mickey this morn
ing to prepare to die. The governor has
not made up his mind definitely that he
will not Interfere, but says that unless
something ef a much stronger character
than has yet been presented ta brought
before him he will do nothing. The gov
ernor takes the position that the right of
pardon or commutation was not given him
save to prevent a miscarriage of Justice,
and that as no Dew evidence has been sub
mitted that , would warrant him Interfer
ing with the sentence and In setting aside
the courts decree, he will do nothing. The
later appeals have all been foe mercy for
the man, but the governor has not been
moved by them.

Held Court.
Ray C. Smith, alias Harry DeFare,
charged with bigamy, was bound over to
district court today. Ball was fixed at
11.000, which . he has not yet given.
Both the Iowa and the Lincoln wife of
the young man were In court and told
their stories. Both wept profusely, but
evinced a defiant front towards the man
who had wronged Uieiu. Altar the hear
ing they walked away, each with a hand
of the little boy that waa the fruit of the
first marriage.
Smith Is by turns defiant remorseful and
Jolly. He Insists the whole trouble Is due
to his first wife's uncle, Mr. Heaton.
"Walt till I get out of this and I will
make It so hot for him that he will wish
he had never started anything," he said.
"I'll have him Inside the bars within
twenty-four hours. The only mistake I
made was In not getting oat of town
sooner, after that Iowa girl had recog
nised me."
What his charge against ths uncle was
he did not say. The Iowa parties left to
night for their home. Smith waa served
with a summons in a divorce case before he
went Into court.
Library Cosasalaoloa Evicted.
The latest phase of the irrepressible con
flict between mind and matter, or the
wrestls between Intellect and power, seems
to have given power the strangle hold. At
a meeting of the State Board of Public
Lands and Buildings this afternoon a reso
lution was adopted directing the secretary
of state to notify Miss Bullock, secretary
ef the State Library commission, to vacate
tnstanter the two rooms she now occupies
for her ofllre In the third floor of the Cap
itol building.
This summary proceeding had it Incep
tion recently when the university authori
ty denied Food Commissioner Thompson
the privilege of using the slate farm labo
ratory for hi Investigations and test. The
pure food commissioner Is an attache of the
state governor and naturally ha a right to
look to the State Hoard of Public Lands
and Buildings to provide him office room
and airaratus for his work. Mis Bulock
as secretary of the State Library commis
sion Is under the dominion of a commission
which comprises the chancellor of the uni
versity, the state superintendent of public
Instruction, the state librarian and two
aliens'" from :he state official list. When
it became known that Commissioner
Thompson had been denied the use of the
state furm laboratory It was rumored that
i the State Board of Public Lands and Build
ings would retaliate by depriving Miss
Bullock of rooms In the state capitol, a
the law simply require that she have her
offices either at the capitol or the State
university. One of the crying needs of the
university is room, so that Miss Bullock
has little for which to hope In that dlrec
tlon.
Members of the Board of Public Lands
and Buildings denied this afternoon that
thrre was anything retaliatory In their ac
tion In demanding the removal of Miss Bui
lock from her present quarters. They de
dared It was simply because they were
forced to call for those rooms In order to
accommodate the food commissioner. That
official now occupies half of a room on the
second Boor. They Insist that he needs two
rooms, one for his office and one for labo
ratory work. They have nothing, they de
clare, against Miss Bullock, but they want
the rooms she has, although there are
numerous vacant rooms on the third floor of
the capitol. That there is considerable feel
Ing over the controversy that has developed
such unnelghborly sentiment between two
state boards of co-ordinate power I ap
parent, and It Is even declared that Chan'
cellor Andrews, In discussing the subject
with one member of the State Board of
Public Lands and Buildings, suggested that
the latter put Food Commissioner Thomp
son In the basement, "where he belong."

WEST POINT, Neb., June J4.-Speclal.)-
Coplous rain fell throughout Cuming

this county could not be better. Farmers
are feeling much more encouraged than
earlier in the season. Com has. In most
fields, been plowed twice and In some In

rye will be cut next week. Pastures, tame
grass and hay are fine. Gardens are look
Ing well, early potatoes, beets, pea and
other produce being very plentiful on the

will not be more than one-sixth of the
yield of last year. Cherries did not bear

Electrlo Line for Korfolk.
NORFOLK. Neb., June It. (Special.)
It Is probable that Norfolk, within the
near future, will have an electrlo street
railway. A company with this end In view
is now being organised and there seems
to be no reason why the project will not
go through. The company will consist of
twenty of the most prominent business
men in the city, a number of whom have
already subscribed, and each Is to Invest
$1,000. The line Is to te strung from the
business center of the city to the North
western depot at South Norfolk, a distance
of a mile and one-half. The scheme was
planned several months ago, Its execution
depending upon the action of the North'
western company In improvements. Now
that that railroad Is Investing 1140,000 and
establishing machine shops here, the street
ear proposition Is being rapidly pushed. E

KANSAS LEGISLATURE MEETS
Purpose it to Fa! Relief Measure for
Flood Sufferers.
NO GENERAL LEGISLATION NECESSARY
Governor Bailey la His Message Call
Attention to Koed of People
for Immediate Aid at
Hand of State.
TOFEKA. Kan.. June 24. The special ses
sion of the legislature, culled by Governor
W. J. Bailey to enact a flood relief meas
ure, convened this afternoon, enough mem
bers having arrived to Insure a working
quorum In both houses.
The principal subject of contention will
be whether a general relief bill or loeal
bills shall be passed. There seems no doubt
about the "enabling bridge act" law being
made legal quickly. It also Is considered
certain, from expressions of advance mem
bers here, that a charity bill of some nature
will be passed. -
The best authorities differ as to the le
gality of such action, but as one well
known legislator remarked today after
viewing the ruin m North Topeka, "the
crisis seems so greet and the need so
pressing that relief will undoubtedly be
granted and the courts can settle the le
gality of such action later."
There Is some difference of opinion also
over the question of organizing the legis
lature. The majority think, however, that
the old organization will stand. The legis
lators were shown over North Topeka's
ruins by the commercial club before con
vening. Governor Bailey In his message to the
legislature says:
Cau.nal and Extraordinary Condition
A PRETTY BROOKLYN GIRL
Regained Her Beauty by the Use of
Periivtia.
The floods which have recently swept
over a portion of our fair state have
created conditions unusual and extraor
dinary. The valley of the Kaw and Its
tributaries, which, but a short time ago,
gave promise of rich harvests, have been
devastated by the angry waters, village
and cltle have been Inundated, homes
have been obliterated and the property loss
to the citizens of our state Is so vast that
at this time Its amount Is but a conjecture.
Bridges that spanned our rivers that are
absolutely necessary for the every day
transaction of business have. In many
rases, been swept away and others de
stroyed, making necessary the expenditure
of large amounts of money before, the ave
nues of commerce can again be opened.
Especially Is this true In Wyandotte
county, where the Immense business be
tween Kansas City, Kan., and Kansas
City, Mo., Is suspended until the river can
again be bridged. While the conditions
are, perhaps, the most acute in Wyandotte
county, yet the same situation obtains in
several of the other counties.
Helpless Vnder the Law.
In some' of the counties those charged
with the responsibility of repairing these
great losses And themselves helpless under
the law to meet these unusual and ex
traordinary conditions, and It is for the
purpose of giving such enabling legislation
as Is necessary to meet these emergen
cies, caused by the recent floods, that I
have exercised the power vested In me by
the constitution of our state to convene
the legislature In extra session,
I regret very much that the exigencies
of the hour have Impelled me to this ac
tion, at this unusually busy season of the
year, dui me legislation necessary, giv
ing the counties so desiring the authority
to use their credit to raise the money
necessary to repair their losses, can be
passed in a few hours, and I trust that the
great calamity that has come to us will
not be utilized in an attempt to pass gen
eral legislation.
Assuring you of my highest personal re
gard, and with the earnest hope and belief
that your acts during the present special
session may prove beneficial to the whole
rople, whose Interests you have in charge,
pledge you my hearty co-operation.
