"I believe the plan to hold a corn show in Omaha' kv nut of the most sensible prop ositions I have heard of In the way of an educational and amusement enterprise.

"At our recent corn growers' annual meeting we found that the enthusiasm over this nation! corn exposition was very marked. Another exposition will find more of our corn growers exhibiting than en tered at the Chicago show.

FOURTEEN ARCADE WOMEN UP Caatofta Present Miserable Appear ance In C'onrt Preacher Offera to Help Them. Fourteen women who werfe found In Mar tin's arcaie on Ninth street by officers who made a raid on that tabooed building in the proscribed district Thursday night, at the command of Acting Mayor John son, were arraigned In police court Friday morning and their case continued to Sat urday. The first .half dozen of the women ex amined declared they had merely moved lirto the arcade because they saw It was empty. None of them Implicated Martin or his agents. But then one of the women confessed she had paid $2, a day's rent, for one crib, to Horrls, the agent cf Marttn. Others then admitted they had paid rent to Harris. Whether any further action will be taken against Martin and Harris depends on de velopments at the trial of the women. Rev. Charles W. Savldge was present In the court room. H had a long talk with Judge' Crawford. Rev. Mr. Savldge has ex- Dressed his desire to help the women. He asked for information regarding the clr cumstances. "If any of these women is in need of help to earn an honest living I am ready to provide for her," said Mr. Savldge. "I cannot believe that we must have this In our midst. However, as long as the condl tlons exist, I can see no reason for driving the women from the -only place they have and compelling them, therefore, to find homes and lodging places all over the city." The women in court presented a sight that caused pity. One poor, amaclaled woman, with painted sunken cheeks, tried to smile as she explained how she had happened to be found In Martin's arcade, "I have been out west for a while," she said. "When I came back I had to make a living somehow." There Were those In the court room who spoke determinedly and vowed to bring drastic action on the question.

For the first lime since Its organisation a special meeting of the American Railway association has been called. The meeting will be held February 7 In Chicago to adopt measures to stop the temendous loss occasioned by the movement of empty b cars on the railroads of the country. It is figured that since traffic began to fall off the railroads have waisted several million dollars In their efforts to return foreign cars to the owners to escape the penalty of 50 cents a day for the use of a foreign car. At the time the 6-cent penalty was imposed, a year ago, the rail roads were short loA.Oft but the situation is changed and there Is now a surplus 01 350,000 cars. No road desires the speedy return of Its equipment. It Is estimated that one-fifth of the freight car move ment at the present time Is on empty cars being returned to th owners. Car Service Operation Lower. The expense of operation of the Western Car Service assorolatlon has been reduced SoflO a month by letting out the special checkers who were employed by the asso ciation at Oniaha. Lincoln, Council Bluffs and Sioux City. Two reasons are given, one being dull business ajid another be cause they are no longer needed. The special province of these men was tb check up cars and see that the right amount of demurrage was levied by the railroads. Shippers have, however, come to the con clusion that demurrage charges are legal and had to be paid and the checkers were no longer necessary. Shippers realise that It Is illegal not to pay the demurrage. Milwaukee Favors loux City. Grain dealers of Omaha have received word from Chicago that the Milwaukee Railroad company has agreed to give the Sioux City market the same rates between Omaha and Chicago which were made for Omaha when the grain market was opened here. Grain Interests believe the Mllyaukee & St. Paul Railroad, company responsible for the opening of the grain market at Sioux City, the plan being to keep the grain moving cast and west instead of allowing It to go to the gulf.

William Randall, auditor of freight and ticket accounts of the Burlington lines west of the Missouri river, has been assigned to special duties under Auditor Durkee, and John D.
