holding of n foreign and colonial ex

presented bv these gentlemen I ns been
approved In the abstract by to many
of those before whom It was laid, and
seems to feasible that there now
seems to be n rofslblllty of Omaha's

present company, upon such reasona
ble basis ns may bo arranged.
"It Is true,” sai l Mr. Hyeknmn. “that
a suggestion has been made to the di

new organization to be Immediately
formed, for the purpose of holding an
exposition In Omaha next s-a-ton, for
which every section of our whole coun

South Otnahuh Is a busy place ihcne

the week eonslflerably over 10,000 h tg«
were received and slaughtered at that
point. Since March I the packers
have handled 1,135,000 hogs, which ;s
a gain over the corresponding period
or :ast year of 1f!0,000. During the
same period St. Louis has gained 12J •
000. Indianapolis H4.000, Cincinnati
37.000 and the smaller markets In
about the same proportion. Kansas
City, however, is the one exception,
the gain In the number of hogs pack'd
at that point amounting to only 6,000.
while South Omaha has been galnli g
150,000. and rapidly closing up the gap
between third and second place In the
list of packing centers. The reason
for the loss of prestige on the putt cl
Kune is City at u time when nil othei

lions of the little town down the river
tamillarly known as St. Joe. Since

that point 5HS*,000 hogs. Of thut
number 300,000 are figured ah having

only about 150.uoo from Nebraska let

son of Hackensack, who was sent to
Trenton prison to serve ten years for
causing the death of his 0-ycar-olil son
fjouis, confessed to Sheriff Herring and
Deputy Sheriff Jackson while they
were on their way to Trenton from
Hackensack with the prisoner. On
this information Mrs. Jackson is held
an necesssory to the murder of her
stepson. Here are Jackson's words to
the sheriff:
“My wife, whom I had only recently
married, did not like Louis, my little
boy, and wc had many quarrels about
him. She helped me to plan the mur
der, and I was to put the hoy on the
tracks. I went to Tenneek and stood
near the West Shore railroad track. 1
was afraid to put the youngster on the
tracks aiivg for fear he would get off,
so 1 struck him in the stomach with an
iron holt and that made him uncon
scious Then 1 put him on the track
Just below the crossing und waited for
a train to coine along. When 1 was
convinced that ho was dead I went
home. I fixed up the story about my
leaving the hoy asleep on the hill near
the tracks to save my life. The jury
believed me and found mu guilty of
manslaughter, thinking that Louis
walked on the track and was struck by
a train. I got off dead easy."

The assembly was fairly representa

gave undue prominence to unimpor

economical committees.

siasm the resolutions demanding the

the Cuban general. Rios, offers two
companies <»f urnieil men to assist the

Wood sent the following reply:
‘'Certainly not. The only eonditions
tui which rations are to lie issued are
the eo topic to disarmament and dia
bamloument of the troops."
Some of the Cubans here eousider
that the United States Is treating its
allies lmdly in not allowing the Cuban
forces to remain armed. They con
tend that the Cuban soldiers who have
been fighting three years, who speak
the language of the country, are bet
ter fitted for gurrisou duty than "un

The Cuban general, Maeia Rodri

tile Cuban army when lie says:
"We thank the United States foi the
assistance it tias given us, but the time
has now arrived when the Cubans
should 1>« place l in the highest offices
and should prepare to take over the

at the reported attitude of the Cuban
assembly at Santa Cruz del Sur. where
the delegates, while expressing their
gratitude to the Americans,practically
demand a distinctive Cuban govern*

other hand, regret tills stand, thinking
it best for tlie United States authori
