strike of the teamstera at the establish
ment of Montgomery Ward & Co. has
spread to other firms, and the Indications
tonight are that before the controversy
Is finally adjusted a general strike of the
union teamsters employed throughout the
city will be called.
Th demand of the Chicago Employers'
association that all teamsters deliver
good to Montgomery Ward & Co., under
penalty of Instant discharge, resulted to
night In the spread of the strike to four
other establishments. These are X'arson
PIrle Scott & Co., Marshall Field & Co.,
J. V. Farwell & Co. and the Forbes Cart
age company.
Strike Spreads liaplilly.
The first teamsters to be drawn Into
what promises to be a genernl strike were
forty-eight employed by J. V. Farwell &
Co. These men quit work when one of
their number was discharged for refusing
to haul a load of merchandise to the store
of Ward & Co. The same procedure was
followed at the establishment of Marshall
Field & Co. and Carson, Plrie Scott & Co.,
where several drivers were discharged by
each firm for a similar- !ause. The men
of the Forbes Cartage company went out
tonight when one. of thetr. men was dis
charged for refusing to take a load of
foods consigned to Ward & Co. In all
about 000 men are Involved so far, the
Forbes company having lost half of the
total numberv, ;. , .
The epread.i.'of 'Wie''trlk threatens to
continue tomorrow. An understanding, It
Is said, has "been"" reached among all the
union teamsters In the y various barns
throughont the city that whenever a mem
ber of their union Is discharged for not
making deliveries to Ward & Co. all the
men In the barn Wilt quit work. The mem
bers of the department store drivers
unions have also agreed to strike if any
of their- members are discharged. Other
unions, Including the express drivers, truck
drivers and coal teamstern. It was as
serted tonight, contemplate the same
action.

The packing firms at the atock yards
are also among the Interests that promise
to become. Involved In the difficulty. George
Golden, business agent of the Tacking
House Teamsters' union, declared tonight
that strikes would be declared against any
of the packers that endeavored to make
dellverle to Ward ft Co.
While . today's events were paving the
Way for the general strike of the union
teamsters, rioting broke out afresh In sev
eral parts of the city. Nonunion drivers
Of tha Employers' Teaming company were
assaulted and stoned, and their horses cut
out Of the traces. During the entire fore
noon the police were kept busy In quiet

HYDE SYNDICATE IS SUED
Action for Daman- that May Throw
Additional Light I pen Method
of Ship Trust I'nderwrltera.
NEW YORK, April 20. In an action
agulnst the Mercantile Trust company and
othore, papers for which were filed today
by D. Leroy Dresser, the long litigation
against the United States Bhlp Building
company is recalled and the underwriting
syndicate of "James II. Hyde and associ
ates" is brought Into prominence, al:
though Mr. Dresser declares the action
has nothing whatever to do with the
Equitable Life Assurance society.
The papers are directed against the Mer
cantile Trust company, John J. McCook,
Charles B. Alexander, WlUlam O. Gulli
ver, Charles C. Demlng, Alvln W. Krech,
John W. Young, James H. Hyde and others
associated with James H. Hyde In the
underwriting syndicate known as "James
H. Hyde and associates."
The complaint of Mr. Dresser alleges
three causes of action, the first arising out
of the methods employed in the formation
of the United Stages Ship Building com
pany, the second for damages for losses
he sustained through the sacrifice of stock
owned by him in the American Tubing and
Webbing company as a result of the action
of the 'defendants complained of In the
first suit, and the third for damages for
the loss of osllk business he alleges was
destroyed by the same action of the de
fendants. The sums Involved are $2,0fl0,0no
with Interest upon the sum of Kn,O00 from
March 9, 1903; Interest on $990,000 from No
vember 17. 1902; Interest on $150,000 from
March 9, 190S, and with Interest on $K,000
from March 9, 1903, together with the costs
of the action. Mr. Dresser made the fol
lowing statement:
The case which I have brought will
bring out fully nil the operations of a
clique In connection with the shipbuild
ing matter. The men connected with It
were of such unquestionable standing
at that time In the community that I was
glad to do. buslnesn with them. John J.
McCook took charge of It on thlselde
and Charles B. Alexander went to Paris
to take charge of It there. James H. Hyde
was In Parts at the same' time as Mr.
Alexander, and part of the papers In the
ense were deposited In the Joint names of
Messrs. Hyde and Alexander. I had every
assurance that the Interests which they
represented were behind the movement and
thnt will be shown In the trial of the
ci'.se.
We have steadily accumulated documents
and evidence, which will unquestionably
tlx the responsibility In this case.

FAILS TO IDENTIFY SMITH
Stern is Not Sure that Kan Patterson's
Brother-in Law Bought Revolver.
BLOW fOR CASE OF PROSECUTION
I'arrohroker I nnble to IteroRnlse I)r
fendant or Mrs. Smith as Woman
with Man to Whom He
Sold Cion.
NEW YORK, April i.-The climax in
the prosecution of Nan Patterson, who Is
on trial charged with shooting Caesar
Young, was reached today when Hyman
Stetn, the pawnbroker, failed to Identify
J. Morgan Smith as the man to whom he
sold the pistol with which Young was killed.
This feature hud been looked forward to
and was expected to make somewhat of a
sensation. On the contrary, however, It
caused but a ripple of comment and sur
prise In the court room, although it was the
dramatic moment of the trial. Stern also
failed to identify Nan Patterson or Mrs.
Smith as the woman who accompanied the
man that purchased the revolver. Smith
had been brought from Jail to confront
Stern and after the hitter's testimony Smith
wos taken back to the Tombs.
Riotous scenes attended the opening of
the court room. Women and men fought
to get past the police." Several women
fainted and many had their dresses toin.
Defendant la Iherrfnl.
Throughout the entire day Nan Patterson
followed the testimony with more intense
Interest than on previous days and when
adjournment was announced she caressed
her father and remarked: "I think this has
been a good day for mo." ,
Only two Important witnesses for the
prosecution, Caesar Young's widow and his
racing purtner, John Mlllen, remained to
be examined when the trial adjourned this
afternoon.
Prosecutor Rand announced that by noon
tomorrow the state would close Its case.
Abraham Levy, senler counsel for the de
fense, will then nsk for tin odjournmtnt for
the day, and If It Is granted, the opening
speech for the defense will be made by
Henry W. lnder on Frldny.
Fall to Identify Smith.
When Stern went on the Btand Smith and
his wife were brought before him. The
pawnbroker told the story of the purchase
of the weapon and Identified the pistol as
the one ho hud disposed of.
Turning toward Nan Patterson, Assistant
District Attorney Rand said: "Look at the
defendant. Don't you remember the lady
who accompanied the'man who bought the
revolver? Do you recognize the defendant
as the one?"
"I cannot say that she was," answered
Mr. Stern.
"Look at Mrs. Smith. Was she the one?"
"I cannot say that she was."
"Now look ut J. Morgan Smith. Can
you say to the best of your Judgment that
Mr. Smith resembkB the man who pur
chased the revolver from you?"
Abraham Levy, the defendant's counsel,
Jumped to his feet with an objection.
"Why can't he ak?" he shouted, "la this
the man that bought the revolver?"
Recorder Goff sustained his objection.
Mr. Rand then changed the form of the
question, saying:, "Is Mr. Smith the man
who purchased the revolver?"
Mr. 8tern replied: "I cannot, say that
he Is.'' This ended Stern's testimony and
Smith was taken back to the Tombs.
Mrs. Smith, who was next called, was on
the stand only a moment. She was asked
to identify a .letter. addressed to Ada Pat
terson as written by her Bister Nan. .This
she" did'. .'-
The rest of the day . was occupied In
tracing the. movements of Nan Patterson
and Caesar Young the day and night be
fore the shooting and the testimony was
much the same as brought out In previous
trials. ,

CRIME IS EXCITING DONIPHAN
Frequency of Robbery at Hall County
Village Causes Much
Fear.
GRAND ISLAND, April 28. (Special.)
There exists In the vicinity of Doniphan,
Jist across the Platte river and twelve
miles from this city, a feeling next to the
reign of terror. For the past two months
many petty crimes have been committed.
Recently the thefts have been conducted
on a larger scale. The first of these was
the burglary of the Scuddcr store when
over S&0 worth of goods were carried
away, the greater portion of them being
recovered in an old, deserted barn. Sev
eral line teams were subsequently stolen
and, It is presumed, run out of the
country.
Sunday night Walter Cole, a young far
mer, arrived at his home about 8:30. He
noticed his light spring-wagon, standing
beside the barn as If some one was about
to hitch up. When he entered the barn
he found one of his horses harnessed, and
bridled and standing loose In the stall,
the other horse of the team having only
a collar on. Evidently he had arrived
at an opportune time and frightened the
thieves away. He looked about but saw
no trace of any one. A watch was set
but no one returned.
Last night while on his way home, four
miles northeast of Doniphan, an attempt
was made to hold up John Wortman,
Three men made for his horses heads.
Mr. Wortmun was not thinking of being
held up and tried to stop the horses. But
they were colts and became frightened,
dashing away. Since hearing of the other
crimes Mr. Wortman Is convinced that
the three men tried to hold him up. The
vlllago Is considerably excited over the
constantly recurring thefts and bur
glurles and Is likely soon to deal with no
lenient hand with the number of strangers
and idlers about the vllluge.
session, and the potentate asked all the
women in the hall, to come forward and
take the obligation: of the order. This
was done, the women repeating the obliga
tion. Then followed the Initiation of 200
or 300 women, whd were conducted to the
suge, which had In the meanwhile been
transposed into a series of railed walks,
under one of which was built a fire to
heat the sand, whereby the dainty feet of
the women novices might be suitably
warified. Some of them Jumped over the
hot sand, and they followed the walks
around until they encountered a tilting
platform thnt caused them much trepida
tion nnd brought forth numerous screams
as they tried the treacherous point.
"Miss Anthony" was now fully reconciled,
and the women novitiates were each pre
sented with a- large tin Shrtners' badge
and were formally . declared full fledged
Shrlnesses. The ceremony concluded and
the dance resumed- and continued until
after midnight.
The ball and reception throughout was
a brilliant and very enjoyable event, and
Is practically the first ball given by the
Shrlners In Omaha, and was a -complete
success In all respects, ,

of that city. He came to what is now
South Dakota and located at Pierre in

ing was endangered by tne overflow of
the Missouri river during the famous floods
of the spring ot 1881 and was forced to move
nearly J30.000 In coin to a nearby hill, where
it would be safe.. Soon after the flood he
sold his bank and removed to Nebraska,
where he has since resided. Pioneer resi
dents of Pierre and that part of South
Dakota will extend a hearty greeting to
Judge Klnkald when he visits his old
"stamping ground" on the occasion of the

committed. The combined assistance of
three officers was necessary to quiet him

If the throng that packed the Boyd thea
ter Inst night Is a measure of the popu
larity of the Omahn Guards, that company
surely has cause to plume Itself on Its
standing at home. It may be that the
promise of the entertainment had some
thing to do with the assemblage, but
whatever the reason ,the crowd was there,
and It was well pleased with the perform
ance. Twenty years has only mellowed the
Sullivan music, and added, If anything, to
the keenness of the Ollhertlnn humor, so
that the dear old comic opera is not only
still worthy of premutation, but is enjoyed
with the added sest of familiarity. It was
very well done by the Omaha Operatic as
sociation singers, although the mark of the
omnteur is all too plain as yet. However,
It was so presented, and It Is but Justice to
the performers to say that they each and
all show decided aptitude nnd should not
feel railed upon to make any explanations
for any part of the prf sentatlon. The only
really serious fault Is due entirely to the
unfamillarlty with the size of the opera
house. Their voices did not fill the big
building as they should, most notably so
in the spoken parts. Mr. Lleben nearly
spoiled some of his best lines by speaking
so low na to be almost Inaudible a few
rows back, and Mr. Jessen marred his work
by the same mistake. Some training In
voice projection ns well as tone production
would overcome this fault. The singing
was uniformly good, but the female chorus
outshone the male In the point of volume,
the men all seeming to study repression
rather than expression.
Mr. Jessen has a splendid tenor voice nnd
sang his songs with decided efTect. His
opening, "A Wandering Minstrel," which Is
probably the most ambitious scored for the
part, won him a most hearty recall. In his
duetjt with Yum Yum he( gave the song
finely, but left the expressive "business"
unexpressed. Mr. Rlsley, Mr. Lleben. Mr.
Hamilton and Mr. Smith each acquitted
himself with credit, both ns comedians and
vocalists. Miss Livingston's Yum Yum and
Miss Wilson's Tlttl Sing were the really
bright features of the evening, both of these
young women attaining a degree of excel
lence In voice and manner that mlisSt be
not discreditable to professional singers.
Miss Wilson's little song, "He's Going to
Marry Yum Yum," was sang with a snap
and dash of nction that secured her an In
sistent encore, and Miss Livingston's solo
at the beginning of the second uct aleo
earned a deserved demand for rcpetljlon.
Mrs. Ogden was good as Katlsha. The
piece was most appropriately staged and
correctly costumed, and under the baton of
Mr. Kinross and the stage direction of Dai
ton Rlsley, was put through without hitch
or mistake.

Creighton University hall was comfort
ably filled last evening by a representa
tive gathering which witnessed a most
worthy amateur production of "The Tutor,"
a comedy In three acts, and for the most
part a revised version of "The Private
Secretary." To say that the former stu
dents of Creighton, who enacted the vari
ous roles last evening, did themselves
proud Is making no Idle use of words. They
displayed a keen appreciation of the lines
they spoke and In some Instances gave evi
dence of real histrionic talent. The pro
duction was put on for the benefit of the
athletic department of Creighton uni
versity. The burden of the play rested on Ed
ward F. Leary and John T. Kelly, who
acquitted themselves well and kept the
audience In almost continual laughter.
Kelly portrayed dual roles, the first being
an eccentrlo money lender and the second
a colored servant. In the title role. Mr.
Leary sustained the action splendidly.
These two actors were supported In the
comedy work by John A. Bennewitz, who
represented Gibson, a fashionable tailor.
John A. Gentleman and William J. Dono
hue, as the law students and nephews,
did what was required of them in an ac
ceptable manner, while Daniel Butler and
William A. Behall, in the serious charac
ters of Bernard Marshland and J. H. Cat
termole, respectively, made an effectual
background for the humor of the piece. The
only femole characters of the play were
played by Philomena Gentleman and Mary
Neu, who were charming as the pupils of
Douglas Cattermole, dlHgulsed as the tu
tor. The pluy Is one of mistaken identity,
pretty comedy situations and a sparkling
love vein running through the action.
The patronesses of the affair were Mrs.
