IMPEACH WOCDS INTEGRITY
Senator Boott OppMe CosCnnatioa nd
Offers Berere Criticism.
REASON FOR OPPOSING CONFIRMATION
Vellevet Grlevoaa Injustice Has
Done la the Preferment o( Gen-
ami Wood Over Older
Army Officers.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12. Senator Scott
of the senate committee on military affairs
ha submitted In executive session of the
senate review of the evidence Introduced
before the committee In the hearing In the
nomination of Brigadier General Wood to
be a major general. Senator Scott gives
his reason for opposing: confirmation, lie
quotes many points brought out against
General Wood, particularly those In con
nection with charges that General Wood
excepted gifts from the Jal AH company, a
gamtling Institution of Havana and was
guilty of complicity with Major James
Runcle In the preparation and publication
of an article reflecting discreditably on
Major General John R. Brooke, his rank
ing officer.
Senator Scott makes a strong personal
argument to the senate In opposition to
General Wood to be a major general. He
prefaces his remarks with the statement
that confirmation to so high a position as
that of major general should be made with
due deliberation -ind the person to be con
firmed should be highly qualified and In
very way worthy and above suspicion.
Commenting on a statement In the brief
e-f Senator Foraker, calling attention to
the fact that It was President McKlnley
that Jumped General Wood over hundreds
In the army, Serator Scott said: "We are
told that Augustus boasted that he found
Rome of brick and left It of marble, and
an, perchance, may General Wood lay claim
to the boast that he found Cuba a den of
filth and disease and left It with a sewer
age system. This, however, goes to his
credit as a physician, and as a sanitary
officer, and does not In any sense show bis
fitness to command a body of troops. The
testlmorjjvj'f General James H. Wilson,
concerning the advancement of General
Wood, Is quoted at length. Including that
portion which asserts that General Wood
was not In the battle of Ban Juan.
In reference to the support given by Gen-
in n
ci si V
Wood to gambling games played In the
All company's "fronton," Senator Scott
ay tt Is showed by the testimony that
General Wood was an habitual attendant
ef the game, especially spending his Sun
days there, on which days the betting
reached as high as 150,000. Senator Scott
comments on the evidence Intended to re
flect directly on General Wood's character
as a man by Impeaching his Integrity and
veracity, and then after summing up other
charges, said:
To my mind a most grievous Injustice has
reen aone in me prerermeni or ueneral
Wood over a hundred or more old army
. ofEcers ornceri who won distinction on
many bloody battlefields battlefields where
more lives were lost ano more prisoners
taken In one day than during the entire
Bpanisn-American war.

WOMAN II CLUB AXO CHARITY
Omaha chapter, Daughters of the Ameri
can Revolution, held Its annual meeting
and election of officers yesterday afternoon
In the audience room of the publlo library,
a large proportion of the chapter members
being present. The annual reports all In
dicated extension of the work and Influence
of the chapter. The registrar's report
showed an addition of nineteen members
to the chapter during the last year and
nineteen papers yet to be sent to Wash
ington. The chapter now has a member
ship of 1T4 women. During the business
session the chapter endorsed the present
state regent, Mrs. A. Allee of Omaha, and
the state vice regent, Mrs. J. B. KelloRg
of Lincoln, for re-election by the Conti
nental congress to be held at Washington
In February. The recommendation of the
state board to levy a 10-cent per capita
tax upon members for the benefit of the
state work, was also ratified by the chap
ter, as was therecommendatlon that the
several chapters bear each Its part of the
expense In the publication of a booklet by
Mrs. A. J. Sawyer of Lincoln on the Lewjs
and Clark expedition, which Is to be sold
at 25 cents a book, the proceeds to go to
the Memorial hall fund.
A communication from Washington was
read regarding the United States battle
ship Nebraska, now building, and to which
the Daughters of the American Revolu
tion of the state are to give a large silk
flag. At the close of December the battle.
ship was reported by the construction de
partment SO per cent completed, the time
for completion having been extended to
September 23, 1000. Because of this post
ponement. It was decided to postpone the
proposed effort to raise funds for the flag
until a later time.
The main discussion of the afternoon
arose ever a motion for the chapter to
contribute $7.50, provided the Sons of the
Amerlran Revolution of Omaha give a
like amount, for the purchase of goneo
logical books to be placed In the Omaha
public library. The local records are not
as complete as desired and as these books
re expensive and are of use chiefly to
patriotic organizations It was suggested
hat the two chapters present books to
the amount of tlS to the" library. The
motion finally carried. The annual elec
tion of officers followed. Mrs. John R
Webster was elected regent; Mrs. J. W.
Griffiths, vice regent; Mrs. O. M. Strain,
recording; secretury; Mrs. Samuel Rees,
corresponding; secretary; Mrs. II. S. Jaynes,
treasurer; Miss Anna Adams, historian;
Mrs. I. N. Hoyt, registrar; Mrs. R. N,

Thomas Hall; delegates to the continental
congress, Mrs. J. W. Griffiths, Mrs. II. B
Birson, Mrs. Samuel Rees, Mrs. R. N
Stevenson and Miss Stella Hamilton.
The following Is the New Year' resolu
tions adopted by the Hull House Woman's
club, Chicago, and proposed by Mrs. Lydia
Avery Coonley Ward. "There Is so much
good In the worst of us and so much bad
In the best of us that It does not behoove
any of us to say anthlng bad about any of
ua. The following formula for learning
the smiling habit, also the club's. Is alse
worth considering:
tVhen you retire at night In III humor
with yourself and everybody else begin to
repeat the word "love" slowly and deliber
ately. If you arc particularly 111 humored
you may kick the bedpost once or twice.
Then begin to sav "love" again, and In the
morning you will have a fine smile. Keep up
ine irearmeni unm curea or ine irowntng
habit.
"Hooks and lessons on smiling are no
good," Mrs. Ward declared. "People must
learn by always watching themselves."
Here Is whst she says you must do to
have a good time on the "small courtesies"
plan when you go downtown snopping:
Before leaving the house ask the postman
to have a cup of coffee.
Bay "thank you' when the street car
conductor gives you a transfer.
Knter into a sociable conversation with
passengers near you.
lo not wait Tor an miromioiion.
Offer your seat to the tired woman who
Is holding a baby.
Thank the man who offers you his seat.
Say Vlease to the conductor when you tell
him where you want to get off.
Be polite to the girl who waits on you at
the shop counter.
On your way home drop In on some old
friends whom you have not seen for a
long time.
Be cheerful when the conductor carries
you past your rorner.
Visit the teacher of your children and
Invite her to lunch.
Do not get angry when you are Jostled.
Listen attentively to the one who la tell
ing you a tiresome story.
Smile whether you match a piece of cloth
or not. ,
At last the Wyoming club women are
going to organise a state federation, the
meeting having been called for January
19. 20 and O at Cheyenne. Considering the
number of bright women and their bus!
nessllke methods, it has long been re
gretted that there was not sufficient In
terest to establish a state organisation
Mrs. W. Gulterman of Cheyenne Is general
federation secretary for the state and she
has invited Mrs. Sarah Piatt Decker and
several prominent women from the east to
attend.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH CM All A
Taliaferro Resifni at Mansgerof the Omaha
Cudsby Plant.
ACTION COMES RATHER UNEXPECTEDLY
ays He latends Going to Florida
Direct I r with His Family for
neat of Moath
r Two.
Late yesterday afternoon T. W. Talia
ferro, for three years general manager of
the Cudahy Parking company here, handed
In his resignation and closed his desk.
In talking to a lice reporter last night
Mr Taliaferro stated that he had ten
dered his resignation and that it had been
accepted. Further he said that he needed
a rest, and that within a few days he ex
pected to go to Florida with bis family for
a .-nonth or two.
Prior to connecting himself with the
Cudahy Pocking company three years ago
Mr. Taliaferro was manager of the Omaha
Packing company, where he bad charge of
that company's affairs here for something
like fourteen years. It Is understood at
the plant that another general manager
will not be named for several days.
When it became known on the streets
in South Omaha last night that Mr. Talia
ferro had resigned considerable surprise
was expressed.
Exchange Directors Meet.
Monday afternoon the directors of the
South Omaha Live Stock exchange met
and elected a secretary and treasurer. T.
B. McPherson, CBShler of the Union Stock
Yards National bank, was chosen aa treas
urer and J. M. Guild was elected secretary.
An executive committee composed of these
members was chosen: M. R. Murphy,
Samuel Mort, Jay Laverty and Al Powell.
This committee will have the handling of
the funds derived from the inspection of
hogs.
It Is understood that no further action
In regard to the abolishing of solicitors
will be taken until the regular meeting In
February. The Fort Worth exchange has
turned down tho questions submitted at
the annual meeting of the national ex
change. The Forth Worth exchange pro
poses to go on feeding shippers as In the
past and will send prepaid telegrams as
the members see fit. When It came to put
ting a stop to solicitors this exchange
passed a rule limiting the number of solici
tors for each firm to five. This action of
the Forth Worth exchange will have a
great deal to do with the aelon of other
exchanges in tho matter of solicitors.
Kennedy Wants Daningri,
Patrick Kennedy has filed a notice with
the city clerk that he will demand of the
city damages In tho amount of J2.70O on
account of the vacating of portions of
Railroad avenue for railroad purposes.
Kennedy asserts that he has a packing
house at Railroad avenue and U street and
that the change In grade and the fencing
or the tracks a a proposed will act aa
detriment to his business.
This Is the first claim to be filed against
the city on account of damages alleged
to occur when the railroads take possession
or that portion of Railroad avenue vacated
While the contract between the city and
the railroads Interested was approved by
the council the stipulation was that it
should be signed In triplicate and each of
in- mire imeresiea parties retain one
copy. Clerk Shrigley turned over the three
copies to representatives of the railroads
several weeks ago. but the copy belonging
to tne -:lty. Jibs imt been placed- on- -file
here. It Is understood here that h mh
ract reads that the railroads interested
will sustain all damages on account of
the vacating of the streets and alleys men
tioned in the contract

City Treasurer Howe finished lln hnlsnc-
Ing his books for 1903 last night and stated
that he was now read to make a call for
warrants on Wednesday of this week. This
csll will be for fSO.OOO snd will be the lar
gesi made by the city In years. AH of tho
outstanding salary warrants, amounting to
$6,000, will be taken up and from this time
on salary warrants will be as good as cash
until the end of the fiscal year. Other
warrants to be taken up are: Interest

Still Flilaa; River Road.
The street department la at work build
ing some new fences on the road through
the Kountze grounds to the river. This
work Is In connection with the agreement
made between the city and Herman
Kountze. The fence Mr. Kountze demands
Is practically completed and the line of
sewer requested is done. It is expected
that the case against the Zelgers, which
comes up In police court today, will be dis
missed and that from this time on there
will be no further trouble between the
city officials and the holders of the
Kountze property in regard to a good road
to the river.
Second Semester Opeas Soon.
Superintendent McLean said last evening
that the second semester ot the school
year would open on Monday, January 18.
"Get the little ones ready," says Mr. Mc
Lean. "All pupils entering school for .the
first time in the first primary classes must
enter school at this time or during the
first two weeks of the semester, as there
will be no beginning classes after that
time." From present indications the prin
cipals at the schools look for a large in
crease in the entering class.
o Cheap Prescriptions.
There is never a suggestion of cheapness
about our finished prescriptions. We fill
them as they should be with pure drugs
that will cure. Careful men by careful
work have put up thousand of prescrip
tions year after year without a complaint,
which Is evidence that each prescription
has received great care and thought.

TRY TWO CONFIDENCE GAMES
One Works, bat the Other Is Thwarted
hy the Vlallaaee of the
A letlna.
A smooth piece of confidence work has
Just come to light. The victims of the
game ack that their names be suppressed.
A well known citizen living In the north
part of the city left his watch a few days
ago with a leading downtown Jeweler to be
repaired. Tho watch was valued at $126.
He went to the Jeweler about the time he
thought the repairs would be completed
ar.d was astounded to learn that only about
an hour or two before that some one had
called for the watch in his namo and se
cured It. The party securing the watch
was a stranger to the Jeweler, but told
plausible story, and was a person of
very gentlemanly appearance, well dressed
and gave an accurate description of the
watch. Ha said that Mr. had not time
to call for It and asked him to procure It
for him and he promptly paid for the neces
sary repairs. He stated further- that he
was a relative of the owner of the watch
and seemed so thoroughly familiar with
the owner of the watch that the Jeweler
was taken completely off his gnard.
It now appears that the watch had been
left hanging cn the repaired hook and the
owner's name was on the card attached to
the watch as well as his monogram. This
the confluence man had of course carefully
noted.
"Ordinarily It Is our custom," said the
Jeweler, "to give a receipt for watches left
with up, but the owner of the watch In I
this case was so well known to us that this
precaution was not deemed necessary."

to express $1,000 In gold to Chicago. I was
a little iusplclous of the fellow, but for
what particular reason, I cannot tell. At
all events It occurred to me to watch him.
He brought the gold In a coin sack and
asked the cashier to count It for him. The
gold was all in $20 pieces, fifty of them, !
which were laid cut In ten piles. The cash
ier was about to return the money to the
sack, saying that It was all right. Just
then I happened to notice the fellow slip a
piece of paper under one of the piles and I
said to the cashier 'You have not counted
that money correctly."
"And sure enough, when he recounted It
there was one $20 gold piece short. The
fellow gathered up his money and walked
out of the office indignantly, and of course
we did not do any business for him. You
see he intended to ship the money to a pal
In Chlcngo, and getting our receipt for the
full 11,000 would put In a claim for $20
shortage. It is a new game and a danger
ous one."
FOR BOYS WHO COURT NAVY
Competitive Examinations to Be Held
for Candidates for Cadetshlps
t Aanapoll.
OMAHA, Jan. ll.-To the Editor of The
Bee: In compliance with the direction of
the Hon. O. M. Hitchcock, a competitive
examination of candidates for appointment
to a cadetshlp In the naval -academy will
be held In Omaha at the1 high' school on
Monday and Tuesday, February 8 nd 9.
The Rev. Father O'Connor, 'B. J., Prof. A
H. Waterhouse, principal of the high school
and the undersigned will conduct the ex
amination. Under -the rules of the Navy
department candidates for admission to the
naval academy must be between the ages
of lt and 20 years on the date of their ap
pointment, and they must tie residents of
the district from which they are appointed
They must be physically sound in every
particular. The committee would suggest
to boys who propose to take this prelimi
nary examination that it would he well for
them to take a medical examination before
taking part In the Intellectual competition.
It would be sheer waste of time for any
boy to make ready for the mental examina
tion unless he can have a reasonable ex
pectation of passing the rigid physical ex
amination required by the government. It
may save some boy, too, the humiliation of
falling to gain the first, second or third

Candidates, however, may do as they
please In this respect. The present com
mlttee has nothing to do with physical fit-

they possess under the rules as to what
the government will require as to physical
perfection. Candidates will be examined

Mr. Moses H. bydenhain. from Kearney,
Neb., sent you. That gentleman, because
of the misdeeds of his friend. Fred J. liar.

reason so many ot our citizens go wrong is
because our publlo schools do not teach us
Christian morality. I am a Jewess and
have spent half of my life In Omaha public
schools, and never was taught Christian
morality, yet 1 know right from wrona.
Why, every one of our readers snd his
tories teach us right from wrung, without
introducing Christianity tn them. I re-
mamber the scorn we relt fur Benedict
Arnold, the traitor, snd the disgust we frit
for the corrupt emperors, governors nnd
Christian popes of Rot
when studvinc
Roman history.
And my parents, without
bring ministers of the gospel, taught me
tha Ten Commandments. Mr. Sydenham
says that we should be taught the Ten
Commandments In school. 1 agree with
him Perfectly ahout that. It would do a
great deal of good to teach the command- I
nients in school, for I am sorry to say a
great many are not taught thein at home. I

NORTH SIDE IMPROVERS BUSY
Clnb Opens Its Year's Work with a
Meeting of Mark Im
portance. Considerable business was transacted at
the North Side Improvement club last
night. President J. J. Smith asked that he
be relieved from the presidency of the club
on account of pressing business matfers
that require much of his time elsewhere on
Monday evenings. He was prevailed upon
to withhold his resignation temporarily.
Secretary McKenzle declined to accept
any compensation for his services as pro
posed by one of the members, stating that
he Is willing to render what service he
could for the good of the club without
compensation.
A communication was received from the
American League of Civic Improvement
Clubs asking the co-operation of tho club
In the furtherance of civic Improvements
throughout the country. The communica
tion was placed on file and the representa
tive of the club In the Omaha Central
Federation of Improvement Clubs was In
structed to present the matter to the at
tention of the central body at its next
meeting.
A communication was also received from
the eastern bureau of civic Improvement
statistics asking the address and geographi
cal location of all members of the club.
The communication was placed on file and
the secretary directed to answer both
communications In the name of the club.
A motion prevailed that the North Side
Improvement club go on record as opposed
to any renewal of the garbage contract
monopoly.
The question of railway tax assessments
for the ensuing year was discussed and
the consensus of opinion was that the
railroads should be assessed to the full
valuation, as Is required of all other tax

assessing the railroads at but one and

WANTS CONTRACT EXTENDED
City Garbage Company Submits Piopofi V. ;
to the Council. !
ASKS FOR EXCLUSIVE CC j
Mcliulion Says Guy I . Dnrton Threat
ens to Knjoln (My It It At
tempts to Dump on Cali
fornia Street.
The City Garbage company has submitted
a proposition to the councl". to extend In
part the monopoly It has held for ten year
for five years more. It propones to grant
some concessions, but wants to retain the
exclusive privilege of hauling all night
soil and contents of grease trans and cess
pools and all carcasses of horses, mules,
cows, dogs and cats.
In return the company wants the city to
pay $2,000 a year for carting away the
carcasses, employ a man to help care for
the dumping ground and will provide a
free dumping ground for garbage, refuse,
manure and ashes at the foot of Jones
streot on the bank of the Missouri river.
This right to dump garbage, refuse, ashes
and manure there Is understood to be free
to all. but Is not distinctly stated.
The proposition was filed yesterday with
Councilman Nicholson, who brought it up
at the general committee meeting. He said
thnt Guy C. Barton had threatened to en
Join the city if It tried to create a dump
ing ground at the foot of California street
near the dog pound and that a property
owner named Peterson had made a similar'
threat if an attempt waa made to fix the I
dump at tne root ot roppieion avenue.
This left as available only the spot under
the Douglas street bridge, he said, and
that Is out of the question.
Some Burial Expenses.
Nicholson also read tne amounts paid
by the city for five years for the hauling
of dead dogs and cuts. They are as fol
lows: 1899, $1,541; 1900, $1,342; 1901, $1,606;
J9Q2, $1,516; 1303. $1,037. To this, he said,
should be added about $125 a year for
horses and cows for which no owners
could be made to pay. He thought the
$2,0u0-a-year offer, which is to Include all
carcasses necessary to remove, a good
one. Heretofore the owners have been
charged whenever possible. .
The contract would provide that the
same old prices for hauling things other
than carcasses remain. They are as fol
lows: Each load of manure, ashes or other
refuse (the standard of manure to be
sixty-four cubic feet and of ashes and other
solid refuse matter twenty-seven cubic
fee;), 60 cents; each barrel of garbage or
refuse matter, thirty gallons or more tn
size, 20 cents; barrels, boxes or other re
ceptacles of less than thirty gallons ot
garbage or other refuse matter, for each
ten gallons, 10 cents. Night soil, where
accessible by teams, for each cublo foot,
10 cents.
Health Commissioner Ralph said he
thought a short term contract would be
the proper course, as an emergency now
exists, the old contract with the garbage
company having expired December 31.
