CHICAGO. May 27.-The general ex
rrutlve board of the Teamster' union ha
taken the management of the strike out
of tht hands of President Shea, and It
will be managed hereafter by the member
of the executive board and the local strike.
committee. After mnuraln' control of the
strike the executive board Issued a state
ment which, with a few unimportant
omissions, la a follow:
"At tha meeting of the general executive
board of tho International Brotherhood of
Teamsters u general discussion of the pre,
ent atrlk wa had. and It wa decided
unanimously to cuntinue the struggle nlong
the same line, wltli frequent conference
between the general executive board and
the local Joint strike committee of the
teamsters' council of Chicago.
"If at any time any change of policy I
decided upon It will be at once announced.
We believe the strike should be confined
to Chicago and to a few men in Chicago
aa la possible.
"We are opposed to spreading the strike
to any workmen except teamsters.
"The general eiecutlva board la hopeful
that peace will soon be established, but
soy peace mum be on terms honorable to
tha striker. However, there Is no Inten
tion on the part of the executive board or
the Joint strike committee to be arbitrary."
Dlspate Aiaonaj Labor I nlona.
While numerous small rlota were Iri
progress today both In the downtown I
streets and In the lumber districts, the
leaders of the teamsters' atrlke and the
officials of the building tradea wera en
gaged in quarrels of their own.
The action of the building trades last .
night In withdrawing from the teamsters
their financial and moral support angered
tha teamsters and they lost no time today
In calling upon the representatives of the
building tradea and demanding to know
what they mean by "going back" on the
teamsters la the thick of the fight It
was made plain to the teamsters that In
r4he opinion of the building trades they
had overstepped their Jurisdiction In caus
ing members of their union to do construc
L tlve work. The particular cause of com
3 plaint was that teamsters employed In
handling safes and vaults had placed them
In buildings. This part of the work, the
building tradea contend, belongs to them.
President Shea of fhe Teamsters" union
declared that he would order out every
safemover and machinery rigger In the
city by Monday morning; and stop work
on all buildings where tha members of
'he building trades are employed. No at
' tentlon was paid to this threat by tha
building trades' representatives, and finally
a committee composed of Michael Casey
of Ban Francisco, John Sheridan of Chi
cago and Edward Gould of New Tork, all
members of the executive council of the
teamsters,, waa appointed to confer with
the building tradea over tha matter of
Jurisdiction. No time wss specified for the
meeting.
Attempts at Settlement.
Several new effort were made during
the day te settle the atrlke, but none of
them amounted to anything. The Chi
cago Team Owner.' association made an
other effort to Induce the teamsters to arbi
trate tha question of delivering goods to
boycotted housea. The Chicago Masons'
and Builders' association offered Ita ser
vice to arbitrate all things connected with
tha atrlke. The offer waa accepted by the
teamster and acknowledged by the em
ployers, aa all other similar propositions
have bean with the declaration that there
waa nothing In the strike that admitted
of arbitration. The labor leaders made an
other effort to induce Vice President Fair
banks to use his good offices in settling
the strike, and a number of the members
of the Team Owners' association Joined
them In the move. They were Informed by
the secretary of the vice president, how.
ever, that he could not undertake to Inter
fere In the strike.
Mayer and Barrr Co Kaat.
Levy Mayer, attorney for the Employers'
association, and James B. Barry, business
agent of the Express Drivers' union, both
left Chicago for the east today. Neither
man would state the object of his Journey,
It was reported that Mr. Mayer waa to
confer with the officials of the express com
.panics In an effort to Induce them to niod-

and declared that he knew that the com
v panies would not recede from the position
they had taken. H was said of Mr. Barry's
object In going to New Tork waa that he
waa planning to call out tha expreaa drlvera
In other cities In a sympathetic strike un
less the Chicago drivers are re-Instated
President Mulligan of the express drivers
eald: "I would not care to talk about the
(report. I have heard of such a thing as
tn effort to call out the drivers In other
cities. I understand that tha drivers are
well organised In Boston, but I don't know
what la tha situation In New York.'
The general opinion regarding the visit
of Mr. Barry is, however, that he has gone
east, not so much for the purpose of ar
ranging sympathetic strikes, aa with the
object of securing financial aid for his men
It la admitted by the labor leaders that
a critical stage In the strike Is at hand
There were numerous fights between tha
police and atrlke sympathisers In all parts
of the city today, the majority of the
scrimmages being, however, In the lumber
district.
In one of the riot In this section a large
number of women and children made much
trouble for the police by getting In front of
them when they charged upon the men
who had been hurling missile. One woman,
Mr. Anna Corcoran, wa srrested a he
tood with an armful of brickbat hurling
them a fast a she could at the police.
One of them struck Officer Christopher
Dressier on the hrad, knocking off his hel

of the Wells-Fargo company, and V. E.

department of the same company. Reich
art, after being taken Into custody con
fessed his share In the matter and his
statement led to the arrest of the other
three.
All denied that they had AVen paid to
do the slugging.
Many Police oa Duty.
' An armed force of 7,500 men, police
and deputy sheriffs, said to be al
most as large as the entire Na
tional Ouard of Illinois, was tn command
of the teamsters' strike situation today. A
call for troops seemed to be Increasingly
distant. In the lumber district, according
to Secretary Hooper of the Lumbermen's
association, l'JO nonunion teams were at
work and 200 experienced lumber team
stors engaged In Duluth and Minneapolis
wilt be added to the force by Monday.
Chief of Police O'Neill stopped hiring extra
policemen today and numbers of colored
men who swarmed Into his office to ba
sworn In were turned away. Formal com
plaint against the swearing In of colored
men as police was made by At
torney Sincere of the . Employers'
Teaming company, the ground taken
being that the use of negro police
men as guards for wagons would tend to
Incite violence. Refusal of the building
trades to give moral and financial support
to the teamster until a puxsllng question
of a jurisdictional nature Is settled is not
accepted by President Shea of the' team
sters as representing the sentiment of the
rank and file of the thousands of workmen
n the bullrtng . trades and he will not
sanction the abandonment of a custom of
years' standing by which certain classes
of teamsters do work at low rates against
the wishes of other unions.
Affects Coal Dealer.
As a result of the teamsters' strike a new
low record in the price of bituminous coal, as
compared with previous depression during
ten yeara, has been established. This ap
plies to the coal situation generally In the
western trade, according to the Black Dia
mond. The retail, trade In anthracite In Chi
cago la also feeling the effects of the team-
ters' strike to a greater extent than waa
expected, due to the duration of Industrial
troubles. Extraordinary efforts are being
made by some of the dealer to secure
business. The market Is on an Irregular
basis. Long time credits are being given by
dealers to Induce consumers to take In
coal, and In some Instances prices are
below those which the retailer should have
obtained for his product in April. These
Irregularities will further complicate the
situation unless the strike Is ended shortly
and consumers begin to take an interest In
their futura requirements.

KRUG PARK DRAWING CROWDS
I'opalnr Resort la More Than Ever
Attractive and la Very Well
Patronised,
The opening of Krug park last Sunday
was attended by thousands of peoplo,
breaking all the big records of last year,
which waa a record year. The crowd con
tinued during the week, and today promises
to be another record breaker. It was espe
cially noticeable during the week that un
usual intereet wa shown in the animated
pictures Imported by the management and
were shown for the first time in this coun
try at Krug park. The "Parsifal" set has
drawn the largest crowds. A most Interest
ing lecture Is delivered by Prof. Ritchie,
to the great pleasure of the audience.
Thirty pictures are first presented, show
ing the natural scenery that surrounded
the production at Beyreuth, and these are
followed by the pictures of the play In llfo
motion. The "Parsifal" exhibition occupies
one hour and seventeen minutes, and la
given at o'clock on Monday, Wednesday,
Friday and Saturday evenings. The "Life
of Christ" motion pictures, also specially
Imported and new In this country, are
shown on Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday
evenings.
The band concerts by the Royal Cana
dian band, J. M. Finn, bandmaster, at 3
p. m. and 7:30 p. m., are a great attraction.
The band consists of thirty pieces with
ten soloists. The programs rendered dur
ing the week past have been most en
thusiastically received.
The floral beauties of the park are rapidly
unfolding, and over 200,000 of the rarest
plants and flowers, valued at thousands of
dollars, delight the eye.
The cafe Is receiving good patronage. It
Is quite the fad to have select dinner par
ties at the park, orders for which are given
in advance. Everything In aeaaon can be
had, the service Is all that could be de
sired and the prices are very moderate.
"Wonderland" will be ready to open in a
few days. The unexpected delay haa been
caused by delay In the receipt of Ini
portant mechanism from the east. It will
be a great revelation when It la opened for
public view.

the alumni to the graduating class. This
reception will be at the high school build
ing. In honor of the occasion the alumni
will provide decorations and a suitable pro
gram has been arranged.
N. M. Graham, principal of the high
school, states that the year has been a
very successful one and that exceedingly
rapid progress has been made by all of
the high school classes since the new high
school building was opened. In speaking
of the excess of young women graduates
over young men, Mr. Graham says that
so many of the high school pupils quit the
school to go to work before they graduate
while the majority of the girls go right
through to the end.
Foor Prisoners Escape.
Four prisoners made their getaway from
the rock pile gang Saturday. As the rock
ordered has not arrived the city prisoners
have been working for a few days sweep
ing the paved streets in the business por
tion of the city. Work does not agree with
some of these vagrants and they have
boasted that Just as soon as the opportunity
offered they would make a break for lib
erty. While Chief Brlggs was aware of
this state of affairs he merely smiled and
said nothing. An escaped prisoner is liable
to keep away from South Omaha, for
time, anyway, and that is Just what the
police want.
When the gang went out to sweep Twen
ty-fifth street Saturday afternoon the chief
gave the special officer guarding the pris
oners a hunch. When this officer turned his
back for a moment three prisoners dropped
their broom and hiked through Brewer's
livery stable and laid a course for the
railroad yards. There was much yelling
to stop, but not a move was made to cap'
ture the runaways. Earlier in the day Joe
Queenan, a forty days' man, made his es
cape. Only one prisoner remained when
the roll was called last night. "It's Just
what we want," said Chief Brlggs. "Now
these fellow will keep away from the city
and for a time there will be a stop put to
petty thieving."
Will Pay Board's Salarlea.
At a recent meeting of the city council
It waa arranged that the fire and police
commissioners were to be paid on Monday
night, the money to come out of the salary
fund. The members of the board have two
month' salary coming under the old law
and two months' under the new law. This
new law went In foroe on April i and In
creases the salary of each member from
$100 a year to 1300 per annum. In addition
to paying each member 1300 a year an
additional sum of 115 a month is allowed
the secretary of the board. As A. L.
Bergqulst is secretary he will draw $40 a
month while the other four members get
but $25 a month. No provision was made
for additional pay for the secretary under
the old law. This matter of salaries for
the commissioners was being held back by
the council In order to see how the funds
would come out at the end of the fiscal
year.
Will Not Aerept Place.
Rev. Dr. Wheeler stated to a Bee re
porter Saturday afternoon that under no
circumstances would he accept a place on
the Board of Education at this time. "It
Is true that I have been aBked by all four
of the present members of the board to
accept a place on the board to fill the va
cancy. I have declined to do so and I wish
that you would make this statement to
the people. Perhaps next spring when an
election la to be held to fill the vacancy,
If the votera want me on the board I may
become a candidate, but I will not take a
place now to fill the unexpired term of J,
C. Knight."
Baccalaareate Sermon.
At the First Methodist Episcopal church
this evening Rev. Dr. D. K. Tlndall will
deliver the baccalaureate sermon to the
graduating class of the South Omaha High
school. Every member of the class Is ex
pected to attend and, with the usual con
gregatlon, the church will most likely be
crowded. Dr. Tlndall has prepared a ser
mon appropriate to the graduating class,
and this well known preacher will doubt
less have some excellent advice to give to
tha pupils Just completing their labors In
tha high school.

whether the proposed line was to be a cut
off from Sioux City to Ashland and to
leave Omaha in the shade or not. The first
Intimation that the line was to run through

Nothing uncertain about the work of

any Question. "
Would Sell ronntjr Hospital.
Without In any way committing himself
to the proposal. Commissioner Tralnor,
chairman of the committees on county hos.
pltal and charity, Is giving some atten
tion to a plan to sell the present county
hospital and grounds to the city. In that
event he thinks the county could save a
great deal of money and still provide a
suitable haven for the derelicts and un
fortunates the county Is compelled to care
for.
"The city has no hospital," says Mr.
Tralnor, "and every city of tha size of
Omaha certainly needs a hospital. "The
county hospital costs a great deal of money
every year, and the outside charity added
to It makes the figure somewhat astound
ing. A similar tract of land near Waterloo
or Valley would, ln my Judgment, serve the
purpose equally well. What we would re
alize from the present farm would more
than pay for the new location and build
ings and leave considerable to the good."
There Beems at present every likelihood
that when Chairman Kennard presents his
plan the other commissioners will be ready
to discuss It and perhaps offer suggestions
on which a compromise can be reached. It
is understood that Commissioner McDon.
aid, the second oldest member of the board
In point of service, has some Ideas of his
own which he will put In shape for pre-
sentatlon at an early day. The county
board Is In the humor to act If they can
be assured of the support of the commu
nity ln any feasible plan they may agree on.

CAN DF.AFSESS BE CURED?
A word to the wise Is sufficient.
his thought mainly to the bonding propo
sltlon in Its varying aspects.
It is matter of common knowledge that,
owing to the peculiar situation and con
struction of the present heating plant of
the county court house and Jail, It costs
several thousand dollars a year to pay the
fuel bill. Instead of using cheap steam
coal, as business houses do, the county Is
compelled to purchase hard coal for Its
heating plant. Mr. Brunlng and other com
missioners have therefore been giving some
attention to a plan for removing the present
heating plant to a place under the sidewalk
west of the county Jail, with a smokestack
running up near the west wall of the Jail
building. In the rebuilding, which would
not be very expensive, compared to the
difference ln yearly saving on coal, It is
proposed to make the present boiler and
engine rooms Into a county store. They
are admirably situated for this purpose
and the store would have a street entrance
on Eighteenth. The location would be
much more accessible and satisfactory In
every way to the county officers than the
present quarters on St. Mary's avenue,
where the county is paying rent for private
property.
New Scheme for Elevator.
On the elevator proposition. It one shall
be put in before the building is recon
structed or a new wing built, several of the
commissioners have suggested that the
elevator need not be placed in the center
of the building, where Its Installation would
necessarily cost a good deal, because of
the solid foundation under the tower. They
propose that the elevator be placed In one
corner of the county treasurer or register
of deeds office. In that event the tunneling
of an entrance from Farnam street and
then to the right or left of the center
would be a very simple matter and would
not cost any great amount of money.
In connection with the elevator proposi
tion is another suggestion, that of using
the dormer story of the court house for
Jury rooms and extra vaults for the storage
of records not In use. A story of twenty
feet In the clear could thus be secured at
small cost, which. It is asserted, would be
very useful. The present Jury rooms ln
the basement are decidedly unsatisfactory
from every point of view, and the vaults
of the county treasurer and register of
deeds are cumbered with tons of records
that are seldom or never used. With a
large skylight let Into the roof there might
also be made a fine room for the Juvenile
court, which at present Is being held In
Judge Day's private office, not at all suited
to Its needs.
The construction of a wing on the Seven
teenth street side of the building, begin
ning at the street level and having an
elevator near the entrance, has probably
met with more favor than any single propo
sition yet brought forward. A good deal
of curiosity Is evinced to learn the nature
of the plan Chairman Kennard has under
consideration.

Commissioner Hofeldt has expressed him

create a sinking fund sufficient to meet
