whether accidental or Intentional, are
causing- much apprehension and that It
will be necessary for the Russian govern
ment to give full and prompt explanation,
or otherwise popular sentiment In the
I'nlted Kingdom might create a serious
situation. It Is pointed out that while the
Injured pro-consul Is merely an Interpreter
and native clerk In the consulate, that fact
mads no difference and that it would be
necessary to prove that the affair was not
the result of the publication of the ob

Rioting- at Warsaw.
LONDON. Jan. Jl. The correspondent at
Warsaw of the Dally Mall telegraphs as
follows:
Ths street railway service here hns been
partly resumed, with soldiers riding before
and behind most of the cars. Few cabs are
running. Street fighting continues and the
mob Is growing In dangerous fashion. There
nova been frequent collisions between the
peopln and snldltrs. Revolutionists at
tacked the troops with, revolvers and
knives. The principal disturbances today
occurred in Novlswlat street, a leading
business thoroughfare. -
At 11 o'clock Sunday night a regiment of
Infantry marched to this thoroughfare from
Smolna street, when somebody fired on
them, whereupon the troops were ordered
to form a square and fire from four sides.
There have been many sad casea of
wholly Innocent people shot accidentally as
they turned street corners. There are
rumorfc that hundreds have been killed In
fighting In the suburbs, but I havs person
ally investigated every such report snd
learn that there has been a comparatively
small death roll.
Fighting was renewed this morning, peo
ple firing from their houses on the troops In
Novlswlat street.

YOUR VOWS MADE WITH CAD
Eer. Esbert Tort Calls Attention to Their
Making and Keeping.
ANOTHER PHASE OF HUMAN DELINQUENCY
ImtsHssr of Observing? Compacts
Made With the Almighty Vrged
Last Sight.
The second week of the union evangelical
services was begun last evening In the cen
tral district by Rev. Robert Tost, pastor of
the St. Mary's Avenue Congregational
church, at the First Presbyterian church.
Rev. Mr. Tost talked to his hearers of
broken vows and resolutions in tha Chris
tian life, and spoke with an earnestness
that carried a force of conviction. He
likened the condition of the children of
Israel to a day of drouth, with every ves
tige of vegetation parching under a blight
ing sun, the brooks going dry, tha cattle
panting for the cooling waters snd the
earth cracking. Then a morning cloud, fig
uratively speaking, would pass over Israel
and the hot sun would come out again snd
the drouth would again be felt.
"God had been watching with a sad heart
these conditions of Israel and then drew
Himself sway, believing His children would
come back to Him. and they did come
back," said the speaker.
Makes a New Covenant.
"God said to the children of Israel, 'Tou
have broken all my resolutions. I will send
my son, the hope of glory. I will make a
new covenant with my peopte. I will make
a better, a holler covenant." God sent His
son that we may look a wicked world In
the fsce without a blush.
"Do you remember ths time when you
ssld, 'God, spare me another day and I will
take the whole world to my heart.' Do you
remember the time when your affairs be
enme so complicated that you called out to
God In your despair for help to solve the
problem, promising In return life-long al
legiance to the Almighty? Do you recall
the time when some loved one was spared
to life and you promised to be a better man
or woman? And did you keep these vows?
Friends, we trifle mightily with the
heavenly Father when we scorn to keep
tne vows we made.
Experience of the Patriarch.
"Jacob promised If God Mould give him
food and raiment until he reached his
uncle's land he would give to the Lord one
tenth of his earnings and build a house of
worship. But when Jacob reached his
uncle's land, by the grace of God, ha for
got ths promise made. He waxed rich and
many, many years passed by, until Jacob
rxpenencea an awitu nignt. tJoa sent a
shame on his head, snd then Jacob said, 'I
will build that house of worship. Lord; I
will keep my vows.' If you forsnke your
vows to God you are trifling with the great
est love tho world over knew. In spite of
every difficulty snd every opposing force,
the Father Is willing to lay bare His arm
that we may not fail and thus fall short
of our vows."
Rev. Mr. Tost concluded with a fervent
appeal for all to become as children again
and forsake not the early vows and fall not
to bring sinners to God.
Rev. Robert Tost will continue the serv
ices at the asms church until Friday even

WOyiN !H CLUB AID CHARITY
Superintendent W. M. Davidson of the
city schools sddressed the social science de
partment of the Woman's club at yester
day afternoon's meeting, his subject being
"Psrental Schools, Detention snd Truant
Schools In Connection with the Publlo
Schools." He said there Is considerable
misapprehension regarding these terms end
made a distinction between them. Truancy,
he said, has flvs causes usually. First,
mental or physical defects which make the
child unablo to cope with his fellows, euch
as defectlvo eyesight snd defective hearing.
Second, poor teaching and bod management
In the schools, such ss the Inability of
teachers to deal with the sbnormal or ex
ceptional child. Third, poor home Influence,
such as lack of discipline or lack of unity
In the home. Fourth, the cigarette habit
with poor home control. He advocates the
enforcement of the antl-clgarette law.
Fifth, tha desire of boys, especially, to en
gage In some productive occupation. To
counteract this Mr. Davidson advocates the
manual training school, compulsory In the
grades and elective In tha high school.
This, hs said, has reduced truancy as an
Issue In tha schools. Some other prevent
ives he suggested were: Good supervision,
thst is, teachers with the heart In their
work that enables them to reach out and
deal sympathetically with the defective or
delinquent child; good principals and grade
teachers, ss no community can rise above
its educators; ample play grounds that will
sdmlt of organising the "ganging" spirit
of tha . boys and convert thst energy to
higher ideals through games that would In
terest snd hold them. Omaha Is deficient
In Its play grounds, he said. The truant
school, which he does not approve of calling
a truant school, but rather an ungraded
school, he held should be Instituted for
such children as, being defective, abnormal
or over-mischievous, ars a disturbing ele
ment In the ordinary school and cannot be
subdued or controlled by the ordinary meth
ods.
The parental or detention school he advo
cated for boys of criminal tendencies or
wayward boys; a school conducted on the
merit credit system, where such boys might
be detained until they have earned the
right to return to their homes and the regu
lar school, and so be tided over a dangerous
period and saved from becoming criminals.
Such an Institution should operate In con
nection with the Juvenile court and Is not
the same as a reform school. Mr. David
son also contends for closer relations be
tween the home and the school. He thinks
the public schools admit of broader possi
bilities than merely the education of the
children; that school buildings should be
constructed with an auditorium where ths
patrons may meet for educational lectures
and the study of social and like problems.
The Iowa Women's Press club, an or
ganization of some of the cleverest news
paper women In Iowa, were guests of their
president. Mrs. W. L. Brown, at a luncheon
at the Chamberlain hotel at Des Moines
Inst Monday noon. The affair was lnformul
In the extreme literal sense of that word
and unique to the same degree. Dignity
was suppressed under penalty. The guests
were received In the parlor and when all
had assembled, cake walked to the banquet
room. Each woman contributed some
original stunt from the line of her own par
ticular specialty. A special orchestra was
provided from the ranks of the club that.
according to a Des Moines paper, "gave
evidence of careful rehearsals either by
'phone or mail, singing with utter abandon
and a serene snd touching disregard for
harmony." The verses, composed by one
of the members, pertsined to the profession
and were sung to popular airs. The lunch
eon was an event that will go down in the
annals of the club as oni of Its star occa
sions and as conclusive proof that It Is
possible for women to have a thoroughly
good time without a "man in It."

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Public Library frotsi Immensely Popular
Amoag All Glaues.
NEARLY AS MANY t ATR0NS AS BOOKS
Librarian Abbott lells of the Hash
and Also of tho Plan She Haa
for Training Asslstaata In
tho Work.
More books; more help.
That is the gathering word st the new
public library. "I never expected so many
patrons In so short a time," said Miss
Jane Abbott, tho librarian, to a representa
tive of The Bee yesterday, "for, indeed,
we had no reason whatever to expect halt
so much Interest in the new library as Is
already being shown."
Miss Abbott says the rooms are filled
from morning until night, and that far
greater demand for books of all kinds is
being made than was ever anticipated by
the library authorities. "It seems almost
ridiculous that we have nearly as many
patrons as we have books," continued Miss
Abbott "Tet that Is true, for while tliero
are now over 900 patrons, there are less
than 1,600 volumes in the library alto
gether. More books are needed at once,
and wo hope to have some at an early
dateA'
Miss Abbott has a plan to get help
cheaply, and perhaps plentifully. She an
nounces that a number of bright young
people, or old people for that matter, with
the proper knowledge of books are wanted
to serve nn apprenticeship in the library.
The terms of service are gratis, five hours
per day for three months. Miss Abbott
asserts that this is a splendid opportunity
for one to learn books of all kinds, and
she hopes that a number of persons will
avail themselves of the privilege. Toung
high school graduates are preferred, if
they have an inclination to literature.
The Library board will meet Wednesday
afternoon, and -it is said to be the board's
Intention at that time to purchase an
other Installment of books of fiction. There
seems to be a special demand fer good
fiction, a tendency very gratifying to the
members of the Library board. Historical
works are also in good demand. There Is
every reason to believe from the Interest
thus far manifested that Mr. Carnegie
struck a popular chord here after all when
he gavs funds for ths new library.
Off to Lincoln Wednesday.
Wednesday la the day set for the visit of
the South Omaha delegation to the stats
capitol in the Interest of and against cer
tain legislation affecting South Omuha. The
chief aim of the delegation, which com
prises a score of leading business and pro
fessional men, la to convince the legislators
of the popular uprling of local Kenliintmt 1
against the bill designed to give the city
council authority to issue bonds in the sum
of 8-60,000 for sewer purposes, without first
having the matter submitted to a popular
vote. The contention of those who uppoaj
this feature of the bill is that such author
ity should not be given over to four coun
cilmen when a proposition of such import
is Involved, and that the people must bv
an means have a vote on It anyway. They
further aseert that It la unfair to expect
uch an expenditure of money for a sewer
the purpose of which Is principally to drain
tho stock yards and packing district. They
declare that the corporations should pay at
least a half of the cost of the sewer,
wnicn is to solve the Mud creek problem.
The delegation will also exhibit a petition
signed by city officials and business men
against the proposed twelve-hour shift of
firemen. It is said that the delegation will
also oppose tho bill Introduced to make tho
firs and police commissioners elective in
stead of appointive officials.
Wednesday n Bargain Day.
Local merchants have a plan .on foot by
which they agree to set apart Wednesday
of every week for what is to be known as
"bargain day." On every Wednesday, both
throughout tho day and evening, special
bargains are to be on hand, and special
effort will be made to supply all customers
with whatsoever they may want. John
Flynn, the well known clothier, Is suld
to be the leading spirit In the movement.
He had a petition signed by all the leading
business firms last evening, to bring about
the Idea as above outlined. The plan is
believed to be a good one, onU many be
lieve It will appeal to patrons and build
up homo patronage.
Special Board Meeting.
A special meeting of the Board of Edu
cation was held last evening for the pur
pose of hearing the complaints of tiio pat
rons of the West Bids school over the re
moval of Miss Salome Brandt, whom Sup
erintendent McLean a few days ago sum
marily removed to another building, plac
ing in her stead Miss McDowell, The sup
erintendent's action resultod in tho walk
ing out of about thirty pupils, and less
than halt a dosen faces have graced the
Eighth grade room of the West Side
school ever s't.oe. The board felt that

Denver Election Case Filed.
The so-called Denver election fraud cases
found their wsy Into the supreme court of
the United Btstes today In the shape of a
petition for a writ of habeas corpus, which
was presented by United States Senator
Patterson. The cases covered by the peti
tion are those of Peter Miller and Thomas
Sheppcrson. .
These cases arose out of the proceedings
of the supreme court of Colorado under
which the two men who were Judges of
election were sent to Jail on ths charge of
contempt of court. The grounds for the
writ were that the Colorado supreme
oourt, without authority of law, undertook
the regulation of the late election by In
junction; that the Imprisonment of the
petitioners for alleged violation of the In
junction was wholly without authority of
law, and that the petitioners were deprived
of their liberty without due process.
Packers Will ot Talk.
CHICAGO, Jan. SO.-Ofilclala of Swift and
Com pan declined to discuss tha court de
cision. J. Ogden Armour, president of
Armoui & Co., was equally reticent.
Judge Peter S. Grosscup of the United
States circuit court, speaking of the deci
sion, said:
The substance of the case presented to
the circuit court was whether the purchase
of cattlo from sellers living in dlffeient
states to manufacture Into dressed meats
and the sale of such meats to purchasers
in dlfierent states constituted interstate
commerce or not.
The decision establishes the right of tha
government to prevent combinations among
the manufacturers of meats. It forfeits
tUti Bnerniau act. It is a long step in the
direction of effectual government super
vision, nut, to my minu, tne real signin
eance of the decision is much deeper and
far-reaching than even this. It effectively
clears the decks for what 1 believe will be
the next really great Rational movement
ss the restriction, and finally the abolition,
of slavery was the lost gieat tundumental
movement the organization and super
vision by the nation Itself of ihe great
corporations of the future a movement
whose chief object will be not so much to
control prices or merely to euro power as
to bring corporate ownership within the
reach and reasonable confidence of the peo
ple st large, and thus to repeopllse and
republlcanixa again the industrial owner
ship of the country.
John S. Miller has acted as special coun
sel for the packers In tha proceedings, and
said:
The order, as I understand it, simply
makes permanent the Injunction restrain
ing the packers from doing business In re
straint of trade and In Violation of the
enerman anti-trust law. Tney have as
sured me that they have done nothing In
violation of these; henoe the permanent
restraining order does not in any manner
inconvenience them. It does not charge
them with or convict them of wrong doing.
I cannot say what further action may be
taken. The only thing that I aee that
could be done would be to request rehearing
of the cose.
C. W Armour Dcnlea Complicity.
KANSAS CITY, Jan. 30.-The packers in
this city say the decision of the United
States supreme court will not affect them.
When told that the court had upheld the
lower court's decision that the packers were
In a combine to control the price of meat C.
W. Armour of the Armour Packing com
pany said:
The business of the Armour Packing com
pany la conducted entirely independent of
that of the other packers. The price of
cattle and of fresh meat Is governed en
tirely by supply and demand, and there Is
no combine or understanding between the
packers as to the price of cattle or fresh
meats. We are in the market every day for
cattle, and there Is open competition among
the packers for the offerings at the stock
yards.
Tha price of meat la fixed as ths price or
other products bought and sold In the open
market. There Is no secret unde: standing
or combine of any kind between the pack
ers to control the prloe of meat or other
packing house product. We shall conduct
our business in the future Just as we have
In the past absolutely In.lepwiident of any
of the other packers. The decision In the
supreme court on that ouestlon will not f-
tect our manner of doing business In the
least because we are not a party to any
