TITE OMAnA DAILY REE: PrXPAY. JUNE 4. CONVICTS TO MARE BROOMS Euu Board Eater Into Haw Contract with tha Lm Company, MORE FAVORABLE THAN THE PRESENT ONE tat Haas la riaeael far Day Oat at Reaaeat ta tka tat Ks-Oareraar raraae OSaelals Attead FaeeraL. LINCOLN, una l.iSpeclal.) Today the Btate Board of Public Lands and Building catered Into another contract with tha Lea Broom and Duater company for the employ ment of the conrlcta at the penitentiary at the rata of 60 cents a day. which prevailed tinder the old contract The Sterling Man ufacturing company of Illinois had an offer to pay 22 cents a dozen for overalls subject to Its acceptance, and tha members of the board believed that It would net the state m satisfactory return for the labor of the nan. but It was rejected because the board lid not have tha available funds with which to Install the machinery and did not wish to offend tha numerous Nebraska manu facturers of overalls and shirts. While tha amount called for under the lew contract la the same as the considera tion under the old. soma of the conditions kre much mora favorable to the state. L'n ler the old one the contractor could prac tically dictate how many men he would em ploy over ISO. and the board had nothing to ay, even though some of the convicts were Idle. Under the new contract the broom mpany la to take all the men offered by the board, but has the right to a minimum f 3M. thereby Insuring him a practical mo nopoly. At tha same time the state Is pro tected against the possibility of having a targe number of Idle convicts on Its hands. Attorney General Brown, who Is prepar ing tha formal contract, believes that this last feature regarding tha employment ta a considerable gain to the state and off sets the failure to secure the increase In the per diem allowance. The contract runs for three years. An effort was made today to Induce Lea to raise his bid, but he told the board that he would pay SO cents or withdraw from the prison, claiming that It was all the profit In the business Justified him In paying. Oajeetloa ta sterllag Caatraet. Secretary of State Oalusha stated after the contract had been made that he was thoroughly satlsfed as to tha merit of the offer made by tha Sterling company, which operates overall and shirt factories In the prisons of seven different states. The bid of this company required the Installation of tha necessary machinery by the state, but It offered to lease what was neces sary In that tine, to offset the lack of avail able fund. Recently a great deal of op position to the establishment of the cloth ing Industry at the prison has been mani fested, and tha members of the board have been subjected to very urgent solicitation tn the matter. There are four overall and shirt companies doing business In Lincoln and one In particular haa numerous stock holders, all of whom Joined the opposition. It was urged that the operation of a plant of that kind with prison labor would de liver a serious blew to a growing Industry. Still another argument which had Its effect was on that the convicts who were taught to make garments would be without em ployment when released, while as broom makers they would ba sura of good wages. The preeent contract la regarded as block ing the way for the establishment of a state twine plant at the nest session of the legislature: During tha recent session one of the greatest controversies arose over the passage of the Ernst bill appropriating 1196,000 for tha purpose. ..Acting on the suggestion of Governor Mickey tha statehouae was cloned this af ternoon as a tribute of respect to the mem ory of Former Governor Robert W. Fur nas. Tha flags over both ends of tha build ing were also kept at half staff, and tha portrait of tha former governor, hanging In the executive office, was draped In black. Governor Mickey will go to BrownvUle with tha funeral party In tha morning, and moat of the state officers have signified their Intention to attend. A special train will be run to convey the friends of the de ceased from out In tha state. Leaving In the morning at o'clock It will return at i In tha afternoon. Laavltt t Proeaad wltk Caaal. H. O. Leavltt, according to advices from Scott's Bluff county, will Inaugurate work an the Farmers' Irrigation canal within a few days, despite the recent report that an effort was being made to compromise the differences between Leavttt and the In terior department by effecting a deal to supply his land with water. Tha farmers' ditch will supply nearly 100,000 acres with water. . George L. Shumway, one of tha leading men of Scott's Bluff county, who has been in tha city, says that tha government will construct 1,000 miles of laterals . for tha Interstate canal, croaa sections for which are now being laid out by the engineers oa tha Nebraska side of tha Una. The con struction of these smaller diversion ditches will afford employment to tha settlers, who are awaiting tha completion of tha project to till their lands. Dasaacrata Ever Heferal. Lincoln democrats are beginning to dis cuss the First district congressional nomi nation. In that connection Mayor Brown of Lincoln and Tom Parmele, a well known banker, telephone man and real estate owner of Plattsmouth, are being discussed. While normally l be re is about as much ope for a First district congressional can didate of tha democratic faith as there is for the permanence of a snowball In July, local democrats hope to make use of the alleged soreness developed by tha repub licans at Falls City. The chief argument In Brown's favor is the fact that he was lected mayor In a hopelessly republican town, but ha today gava out an anticipa tory declination and may refuse to enter tha race. Parmele. because of hla location. Is counted on as tha right man to go out Into tha district and give Pollard a bard run. Kew Omaha C.rs.rs t la ..

Cornelius Shea, presi dent of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, was arrested late this afternoon on a charge of criminal libel preferred by Robert J. Thome, assistant general man ager of Montgomery Ward A Co. Shea was arrested on a capias Issued by Judge 8. H. Betbea of the United States district court, following the filing of a suit by Thome .who. In addition to making the charge of criminal libel, asks for damages to the amount of ta.) from Shea. The suit Is based on Interviews given out by President Shea to the newspapers and on statements he Is said to have made to the effect that he had been offered tlO.000 by Mr. Thome to call a strike against Sears. Roebuck Co., which is a large house In the same line of business as Montgomery Ward A Co. Shea made the assertions against Thome before tha county grand jury In addition to making them to news paper men. and after making them Insisted, It is said, upon their accuracy. Thome Denies All Charges. Mr. Thome denies all of the alleged state ments of President Shea, and In his bill declares that his standing and reputation as a business man have been Injured by the assertions of President Shea. It was stated In the bill that Inasmuch as President Shea has no stated place of residence and is called from place to place to take charge of strikes, it was necessary that he ba ap prehended and placed under bond. Judge Bethea at first refused to take charge of the matter, and directed the at torneys of Mr. Thome to go to Judge Kohlsaat with It. Judge Knhlsaat was not In the federal building, and no other fed eral Judge was available. Judge Bethea then Issued the capias and Deputy Marshal M. E. Patterson was sent to make the ar rest. President Shea was found at his hotel, and at once accompanied the deputy marshal to the office of United States Mar shal Ames, and from there he was taken to the court room of Judge Bethea, where be gave bonds for his appearance, when wanted. In the sum of 16,000. Troaale Near mu End. The agreement of the teamsters to refer to the Truck Drivers' union the question of arbitrating the matter of deliveries to boycotted houses, was hailed by Mayor Dunne and the members of the Team Own ers' association as a sign of returning peace. The meeting of the truck drivers will be held Tuesday night. Not a large proportion of tha business of the truck drivers is done with the express companies, and a vote by them to make deliveries to the boycotted houses will virtually mean the end of tha strike, although no formal order Is Issued calling It off. Segatlatloas on Sew Lines. Negotiations along new lines for a settlement of the teamsters' strike were under way today. A commit tee of five appointed by tha teamsters' joint council, with full power to effect a peace compact at the department stores, awaited the appointment of a similar committee to act for tha merchants. Edward Hlllman, a State street merchant, undertook to se cure tha appointment of the employers' committee. Tna representatives of the teamsters were Edward Mullen, business agent of tha lumber drivers; John Smyth. president of the coal teamsters; Peter Rellly of the department store delivery drivers; Jeremiah McCarthy, business agent of the truck drivers, and L. Mc Arthur of the railway express drivers. The teamsters' committee was appointed after the proposition had been fully con sidered by the Joint council. The1 commit tee planned to Ignore tha express com panies. If the Employers' association will agree to entertain such an agreement. President Shea of the Teamsters' union denies any knowledge of the new plan of settlement. Would Settle wltk Merchants. Following the appointment of the new peace committee came the Influence of President Bernard Mulligan of the Express Drivers' local union. In favor of tha end of tha struggle so far as it concerned State street stores and the merchants. Mr. Mul ligan expressed himself as Irrevocably op posed to making terms with the express companies unless tha drivers of his union were re-ngaged. Mr. Mulligan said: "The express com panies stand In the way of a settlement on the original lines, but they should not be permitted to be a stumbling block In tha way of an honorable settlement with the department stores. All that we express drivers ask Is that the employers do not ask the Drivers' union when they return to work to deliver to the express companies or take goods from them." There seems little probability of a settle ment of the department store drivers' trou bles Independent of the other interests. Edward Hi.'lman, who Is said to be work- I XX " ",1Ta.
