Betas; Charged for Retara
Certiorates.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29. An order was
Issued by Frank P. Sargent, commissioner
general of Immigration and naturalisation,
designed to put an end to a species of

a return certificate which enables him to
land here without difficulty on hla return
from China. It was discovered by Secre
tary Straus a few days ago when he was
In Salt Lake City that resident Chinese in
this country hsd sn Idea that they were
required- to have their return certificates
msde out by a lawyer and that they were
usually charged a fee for the certificate of
from $5 to 60i
On the secretsry's suggestion, Commis
sioner Sargent has Issued an order to all
Immigrant officials ' directing them to In
form resident Chinese that the immigration
officers will make out return certificates
Without charge, that always having been
a part Of their duties.

" Valley.
Eliminating local travel on Overland Lim
ited trains, has put the t'nlon Pacific In
much the same fix as the old woman found
herself In when she attempted to cross
the bridge with the fox, the goose and a
peck of corn.
When It Issued the order, effective Au
gust M, thst these trains should accept
no more local travel. Its sccompanytng
reason was thst traffic had Increased to
such an extent the trains no longer could
make both the lime and local stops. But
slmost In the same breath the railroads
were declaring the 2-cent fare had not In
creased business. Here was a boomerang.
Another excuse given not by the railroad
Is that a demand for an "exclusive" train
brcught forth this order.
And now here Is fresh trouble, which
leaves the Union Pacific In a predicament
not any official yet Interviewed seems
irore able to solve than was the old
womsn at the bridge able to meet the
emergency that confronted in the sly fox,
the hungry goose and the palatable corn.
Qneer Things Aboat Tickets.
The matter of refusing to sell transporta
tion between , local points on . through
trains, though the trains stop at .local
points, la one of the anomalies of railroad
ing that Is troubling the traveling public
of Nebraska seriously. A esse at hand oc
curred Tuesday night at Fremont, where
two passengers wanted to buy tickets to
Omaha over the Union Pacific Los Angeles
limited. ' The ticket agent at Fremont re
fused to sell tickets either to Omaha or
Council muffs, on the ground thst ths
train was crowded. However, he did con
sent to sell the applicants Tickets to Mis
souri Valley,- exacting a stipend of $2, where
the rate to Omaha was but 82 cents. The
two psssengers In question had to come to
Omaha, and none of the trsin hands un
dertook to prevent the passengers from
disembarking at Omaha. Neither did the
conductor make any overtures to refund
the remaining $1.18.
The passengers in question were Captain
T. B. Hacker of the United States army,
stationed as chief commissary at Omaha,
and E. W. Icken, a well known commission
broker of Omaha. ,
T have nothing to ssy in reference to
the matter," remarked Captain Hacker,
"other than I have the stub of the ticket
due to Missouri Valtey. I am a little at
loss to understand why the agent at Fre
mont had no hesitancy In selling us tickets
to Missouri Valley, but was not authorised
to sell us tickets to Omaha, although the
train passed through and stopped at
Omaha."
The Union Pacific passenger department
was asked in reference to the foregoing
matter.- The comprehensive -reply was :,.
'The Union Pacific does not sell tickets
on trains Nos. 1 and t and 7 and 8 on local
points In Nebraska, except where the pas
senger holds an Interstate ticket to a point
in Nebraska." " .

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAIIA
Phenomenal Bun of Sheep Comes Into
This Market.
ALL k ARE EASILY DISPOSES OF
Both Killers ssl Feeders Are
Eager Bayers aaa' Market
Caa A near h All that
te.
Consignments of sheep have come in
with a tremendous rush during the last
three days. Last week there were prac
tlcally no Sheep on the market.'1 It was
almost truthfully said that there were
more buyers than sheep. The flattering
market reports sent out last week, how
ever, had the effect of starting up the
shipments with a great rush. Last week
the shipments were, over 19,000 behind
those for the earns Urns In 190s, but
the seals la now turned and the net In
crease over the receipts of last ysar la
10,949. The total receipts for the last
three days reach the large figure of II.-
BIT. The estimate yesterday was 1 7.000,
which Is equal to ths receipts at Chicago
and over three times as many as at any
other market.
The market yesterday Was very aotlve
and the commission men still have more
orders for feeders tnan they have been
able to fill. Besides the commission men
there are many of the regular buyers of
feeders on 'the market, and this number
has Increased this year to a large de
cree. Feeders ef sheep have sprung up
as If by magic and everyone sems to be
anxious to get into the busln-ss. .Many
predictions of failure In past years have
proved untrue and Investors In sheep have
coined money with ease. This accounts
for ths eagerness of the buyers and the
numbers with which they throng the
sheep barns. There are enough advanca
orders to take up all of the consignments
for the balance of the week. The com
mission men who handle sheep expect the
market to start with great activity next
week. There has been a strong bullish
tendency- these last, three days In the face
of the large shipments. Every day the
market closed strong and steady. There
was no unnatural falling oft In prices.
The top market was commanded by the
best grades of mutton lambs. Nearly
1,000 Idaho and native lambs sold ut
17 per hundred. Ths choicest went as
high as S7.26. Ths bulk of ths sales
went at $5.75. 00. There has been a
shortage In the feeder barns all the week,
which has not been supplied by the heavy
run.
Bruce McCulloch says of the South
Omaha market, with reference to feeder
grades of sheep, that It Is the best In
the world. The reasons for this are
many. ' Omaha Is situated In the corn
belt And within easy reach of all kinds
Of rough feed as well. The sheep which
Come to this market are .large-bontd,
northern grown animals, hardy of charao
ter and free from disease. They are of
altogether better quality than the sheep
of the soutbweet. - They put on flesh much
more rapidly and look better. Hence this
market haa always been - patronised by
the sheep feeders. They will be tiers In
plentiful numbers for five or six weeks
yet.
