ONE STRIKE OVER
UNION PACIFIC AND ITS MEN GET
TOGETHER.
CONFERENCE IN NEW YORK
All the Main Points of the Difficulty
Are Arranged Settlement Applies
to Machinists, Blacksmiths and
Boiler Makers.
OMAHA President Kennedy of the
boiler makers, who is in New York in
attendance at the Union Pacific strike
conference, telegraphed to the local
committee that every main point had
been conceded to the strikers. All
the old men are to be reinstated, an
increase in wages Is allowed and the
piece work system is abandoned.
Strike leaders in Omaha received
emphatic news of settlement from New
York in a matter-of-fact way, yet
manifested a great deal of delight at
the thought of reaching the end of
the long and severe struggle which
began June 18, lfi'2. They had been
looking for a settlement and therefore
were not surprised.
Whatever terms of settlement are
made with one of three crafts will ap
ply to both the others, as they all.
the blacksmiths, machinists and boiler
makers, nave stood together through
out the fight and long ago resolved
that no settlement should be made
with one that did not extend to all.
therefore the 1,500 or l.t.OO men who
went out the machinists, boiler mak
ers, blacksmiths, their helpers and ap
prentices, will be included in the num
ber that are to return to wcrk. A
large number of these men have gone
off to other places to work, but the
plan is for all to return and accept
their old places as soon as the final
settlement is made. Only four of this
large lot ever deserted and went back
to work in the shops. Three of these
were boiler makers at Kansas City,
and one machinist ai Sidney, all of
whom were promoted to formanships.
Up to a late hour last night the
strike leaders had no more informa
tion than they had early in the even
ing when a code came saying that all
the main points had been conceded,
which involved the abandonment of
piece work, the discharge of all non
union help, reinstatement of all old
men and raise of w ages in some" cases.
Inquiry at Union Pacific headquarters
brought the reply that no advices had
been received there as to the settle-
ment.
All that is done in New Y'ork must
be ratified in Omaha before the men
return to work. This is in accordance
with constitutional provisions govern
ing the various crafts involved. The
three trades will be represented in
conference with Mr. Burt and other
officials by a delegate of the black
smiths, boiler makers and machinists
from every place on the system. There
is no thought that the terms will not
be approved.
Itch Grows on Kansas Stock.
TOPEKA. Kan. The State Live

LOSS VERY HEAVY
ONE THOUSAND KILLED AND 30C
WOUNDED.
WAS A SANGUINARY CONFLICT
That Occurs in the Rio Chico District,
Venezuela Regular Soldiers Meet
with Big Less and Accomplish
Nothino.
WASHINGTON. 1). C Advices of a
thoroughly reliable character received
in Washington, under date of May 1
show that tho Venezuelan revolution
ists are not only holding their own
but are making considerable headway
The advices say:
The districts of Coro, Rarisquisimo.
Torquas, on the west side, Ciudad Bol
ivar, on tho Orinoco, and its surround
ing country are still in the power of
the revolutionists. Within sixty miles
of La Guayra, in the Rio Chico dis
trict, the revolutionists are holding
forth, end although the government a
few weeks ago sent an expedition
there to drive them out, they succeed
ed only in making them retreat, and
within a few clays tliey were again
ba-k there. A battle took place in
which the government lost over
thousand men and about 3o0 wounded
were brought back to La Guayra after
a two das' light.
On the other hand, the revolution
ists have not succeeded in ousting the
government or in winning any partic
ular fight, but they are decimating the
government troops and the govern
ment now has no more than 3,000 men
under arms.
An expedition went from La Guayra
about 1 500 men to Tucacas, there
to meet the forces of the revolution
ists, but the result is very doubtful.
Two days ago the news came that
General Matos has left Curacao and
landed in Venezuela at a point called
Chirivirichi, which is few miles west
cf Puerto Cabello. It is said that an
asreressive campaign on his part is
again to be undertaken.
TOO MUCH MONT PELEE MONEY.
Committee Has $3,000 Which May
Go to Filipinos.
WASHINGTON The committee
appointed by the president and the
other committees formed to raise
funds for the relief of the sufferers
by the Mont Pelee eruptions have
completed their worK. They report
that of the $157,000 collected only $73,
000 has been expended and it is not
considered expedient to disburse the
remainder.
President Roosevelt has suggested
that the funds still on hand be sent
to Governor Taft in the Philippines
for relief work there and the commit
tee announces that this suggestion
may be followed, or contributors may
have the remainder of their subscrip
tions returned to them.
Same erms as United States.
WASHINGTON Great Britain has
decided to accord China the same
terms in the settlement in the Boxer
indemnity as those accepted by the
United States. The state department
has been informed that the English
charge at Peking has signified the
willingness of his government to ac
cept payment on a silver basis for a
term of years, serving of under bond
the right to receive payment of any
deficiency that might exist should it
hereafter be decided that the pay
ments should have been made on a
gold basis. This very much strength
ens the attitude of the United States
Lord Milrer Talks of Africans.
JOHAUUESBURG.- Lord Milner,
high commissioner of South Africa,
addressed a meeting on the native
question, contended that natives who
raised themselves to a civilized level
with the whites were entitled to equal
privilege. He sympathized, he said,
with the feeling in South Africa
against an influx of the Asiatics, but
that influx should be resisted on econ
omic grounds and not on the score of
color.
Land Grabber Sentenced.
ST. LOUIS Frederick W. Fout, Jr.,
an attorney, was on Friday sentenced
to four years in the penitentiary by
Judge Amidon of South Dakota, sitting
for Judge Adams in the United States
district court for violation of the
homestead laws. Fout filed motions
for a new trial and arrest of judgment,
but they were overruled, and he de
cided to appeal.
Divorce Law Unconstitutional.
SAN JOSE, Cal. Superior Judge
Rhodes Friday declared the new state
divorce law unconstitutional.
Purchases Silver for Philippines.
WASHINGTON, D. C Director
Roberts of the mint bureau purchased
450,000 ounces of silver on account of
the Philippine coinage, at an average
of 55.08 cents an ounce.
Pershing Will Return Home.

Lanao expedition and will be succeed
ed by Lieutenant Colonel Rogers of
the Fifteenth cavalry.

GAME WARDEN AFTER
SEINERS
Consternation Created Among Sports
men r.t Humboldt.
HUM BOLT Came Warden George
B. Simpkins of Lincoln was In the
city creating quite a disturbance
among the local sportsmen. The sec
tion foreman and three or four mom
bers of the force took a vacation Sun
day and, the game warden alleges, re
paired to a pond west of the city, part
of which is on t!ie ilfeht of way of th
road and part on the land of A. 1'
Stalder, and with a seine took from
tho water a number of fiish in viola
tion of tiio law. There were six in
the party, and some of them protested
vigorously when a message from the
warden reached them instructing them
to call at tho Park hotel and fix the
matter up. The number of nsh charg
ed is ten and under the law tho line
would be $50, which the warden as
sorts the men have agreed to pay. On
the other hand, the accused men claim
that the warden is not empowered' to
fix and collect a fine; without giving
them a trial in some court of compe
tent jurisdiction. So the matter is at
present unsettled.
ORDER IN THE LILLIE CASE.
The Mandate of Chief Justice Sullivan
Received.
The order of Chief Justice Sullivan,
suspending the sentence of Mrs. Lil
lie, the Butler county woman who is
under life sentence in the penitentiary
for the murder of her husband, has
been received at the office of the
clerk of the supreme court. A ccjpy
of the order has been made and for
warded to the sheriff of Butler coun
ty. This will leave the woman in But
ler county until the supreme court
can review the case. It will probably
be six months before the case can
be disposed of, since the supremo
court will take a vacation before the
case can be reached in the regular or
der for such cases. This means that
Mrs. Lillie will enjoy the comforts of
her private apartments at the Butler
county court house until fall.

BE INDEPENDENT.
It's Easy to
Shake Off
the Coffee
Habit.
There are many people who make
the humiliating acknowledgment that
they are de-pendent upon Coffee to
"brace them up" every little while.
These have never learned the truth
about Postum Cereal Coffee which
makes leaving off coffee a simple
matter and brings health and
strength in plae of coffee ills. A
lady of Davenport, Iowa, who used
Postum Food Coffee for five years i
fompetent to talk upon the subJecL
Bhe says:
"I am a echool teacher and during
extra work when I thought I reeded
to be braced up I used to Indulge in
rich, Btrong coffee of which I was
very fond and upon which I thought
I was dependent.
T begn to have serious heart pal
pitation and at times had ebarp
pains around the heart and more or
less stomach trouble. I read about
Postum and got some to try. I drop
ped cxiffee, took up the Postum and
it worked su 'i wonders for me that
many of my friends took it up.
"In a short time I was well again,
even able to attend evening socials.
And I did not miss my coffee at all.
Now I can truthfully Fay that I have
been repaid fully for the change I
made. I have no Indications of heart
disease and not once in the past four
years have I had a sick headache or
bilious epell.
"My father. 78 years old. is a Pos
tum enthusiast, and feels that his
good health In a large measure is due
to the C cups of good Postum which
he enjoys each day." Name furnished
by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
There is a reason.
