8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEfifc MONDAY. FEBRUARY 13. IftM. ONLY THREE PETTY THIEVES Union Pacific Officials on the Oapturo of Baker , DENY THE STORY OF A BIG ROBBER BAND Central Trnfflo AModatloii McrtlnR Jlontly Tnlk Itnllronil Men Admit ( Icnrrul llntn CiittrtiK < lcnrrnl Mutineer llolilrrgo 1'rotrcU Kmployr * . Chief Detective W. T. Canada of the Union Pnclflc railways , arrived In Omsilin over the Northwestern yesterday forenoon with A. H. llalccr , alias Walters , who was arrested in Chlcnpc Saturday iiljrht whllo trying to ( llsDoso of some boxes of cigars that had been stolen whllo In transit over the mountain division of the Union Pacific. In order to avoid bclnt ? noticed by any one , especially employes of the company , Canada traveled u 1th his prisoner In the chair car , and oven the conductor of the train did not know that ho was carrying n special agent of the road and n prisoner. When the train stopped In Omaha De tective Canada took his man off on the north side , and with a close tfrlp on his arm walked along under the Hlevcnth street viaduct anil up to the Union Pacific general offices. At thu headquarters Baker was put through a couiso of questioning , but through the long slcgo ho stood his ground. Whllo admitting his own guilt to some extent ho declined to glvo away his partners In crime. After the examination was over Uaker was taken to the county Jail for safe keeping , and ho will bo taken back to Montana to day. day.In speaking about the matter last evening Judge Kelly , assistant general solicitor for the Union Pacific , said : "Tho reports published In the morning pa pers about tnls case wcro ereatly exagger ated. In the first place this man linker Is tnily charged with stealing fourteen boxes ' of clgais , and wo Intend to take him back to Montana and make an example of him. Two other people , whom wo know , assisted Hnker In purloining the goods , and wo will have them arrested before many hnuis. As for uh organised gang robbing the road , that is all nonsense ; nothing of the sort exists. Baker will merely bo tried for the larceny of SKX ) worth of cigars and hh confederates will have to face the same charge. " T\ro Hrtikcinrii , One Outsider. The additional particulars developed yes terday Indicate Unit the story published In yesterday's Br.c. given byondof the rail road officers , was correct. Hut three men sire Implicated. Two nro brake-men and the third an outsider. The v.iluo of the stolen goods given by the Chicago dispatches was n gross exaggeration. Mr. Charles J. Italic , division freight agent of the Union Pacific , said yesterday : "Of course wo knew that petty thieving was going on , but not to the extent stated. That Is absurd. The story that this arrest Is the beginning of the breaking up of an or- ganbcd gang of thieves Is nonsense. There Is no organized gang operating on the Union Pa cific system. There U not u trunk line in the United States that at homo tlmo or other is not made the victim of petty thieves. The railroads arrest a few and their operations uro transferred to another road and another section of the country. Conductors , as a rule , are too sharp to go into a business they know In n short tlmo will lead to their detec tion. There Is no organl/cd movement among the conductors or brake-men , and you can depend on It that , with the system of car sealing now in vogue , n leak can bo found I'eadlly and the guilty parties caught. Speaking again of the Union Pacific con ductors , I want to say that I don't believe that any railroad has u better sot of em ployes than ours have proven. " P. J. Nichols , supciintcndcnt of the Ne braska division , made almost the same state ment given by Mr. Lane : "Tho won't amount stealings Jo anything near the sum given , and J am confident thfcro Is no organized gang working the road. If there Is I vow I don't know anything of It. It will simmer down to three or four people , and I think they will prove other than Union Pacific employes. There IS always some petty ttiievlng gang on all lines , , but there la none in Nebraska. " .v or KKSUI.T. Oneot tlio3roinlirrTnllcsof tli Mectlu ; ; of the Central Tralllu Association. CniCAOO , 111. , Fob. 18. The managers of the lines In the Central Trafllo association , who have been attending the Joint committee meeting , returned yesterday. One of them , speaking of the conference , said : "It was entirely barren of results , , Just as I predicted it would bo. Everything that came before the meeting was referred back to the board of presidents. The only question on which there was any considerable discussion was that relating to the abolition of commissions on passenger traftlc. It was held that some of the differential lines were paying commis sions to secure business and a great pressure was brought to bear upon them lo induce them to turn from their ovll course and got into the band wagon of reform before it was too late. 'That sounded very well , but during the discus sion it transpired that while the rates from Now York to Chicago by the differential lines varied only from SlT.fiO to $18.50 , there was a rate in force by way of the Now York Central and other trunk lines in connection with the Nickel Plato of § 14 , thus more than wiping out the differential. Of course nobody accused the trunk lines of partici pating in the reduction , but that tlio.v winked nt it , was too evident to bo denied. It was said the tickets from New York to Buffalo wcro bought up and sold in connec tion with tickets over the Nickel Plato from Buffalo to Chicago. Furtheimore , it was > > aid that the brokers ucro dealing In these tickets at a profit to themselves , which Is an indication that the Nickel Plato rate is oven less than ? 0. "On eastbouml business the conditions are the same. The rate from Chicago to Buffalo over the Nickel Plato is$0 , which , added to the ? b-rato over the West Shore to Now York , makes the through rate $14. Some times you can got a discount on this from scalpers. Wo are told that the Nickel Plato is taking this advantage because It has no through passenger service and cannot make good timo. That Is n mistake of those who are not nwnro that the company has recently improved Its passenger service. It is now running a through vestibulcd train and mak ing oveu bolter time than some rojids that have been trj ing to bo content with their uu thorlzTd differential rate , "Can you wonder tfiat there was n great row over the coihlnlsslon question , and that the matter was referred back to the prosi dents for further consideration ! " Next Tuesday a mi.ptlng of the general passenger agents of the Transcontinenta lines will bo held In this city for the purpose of agreeing on a schedule of World's fair rates from the Pacific coast and intermediate territory. General Passenger Agent Good man of the Southern Pacific , who called the meeting , suggests that reduced rates bo made effective on or before April 1 for the benefit of foreign visitors and exhibitors who will arrive early ut San Francisco. Ho also thinks that the reduced rates should apply In both directions , and that they should bo used In the sale of both single and round trip tickets , the single trip tickets to bo closely timed and to bo sold to accommo date those who would not expect to make tin ) return trip within the limits liitd for the round trip tickets. A HlKlltriiili Order. Some thico years ago the management o the Burlington Issued a circular frowning upon ( ho everlasting custom of giving pro scuts to retiring oniclala and others con nceted with the road. The order him beer morc'honorcd In the breach than in the obser vance , and Mr. O. Holdrcgo has Just Is BiHil thu following rhvular bearing ipou : tlu bubjoct ! "The receiving of presents from their sub ordinates , bofllcrs , and others in charge ol men , Is very objectionable ( tint ii not per mitted ou this road. A little reflection will convince any one of the ovll of such a practice. Too often men u ho cannot afford to rontrUmta toward such presents feel constrained - strained to do so rather than run the rUlt of incurrliur the displeasure Ofor seeming unfriendly to those having charge over them. .

The now west bound tariff , which after n month's session the transcontinental railroad conference formulated , was plvcn out today nml changes the entire complexion of trntiscontincnt.il rates. The now rates will go Into effect "clirunry 15. The tariff Is Issued jointly by the Union Pacillc , the Northern Pacific mid the Great Northern , and covers the entire territory penetrated by these s.vstoms west from Chicago to the Pacific coast. It has been the avowed purpose Iti making ICMO rates to build up the country through which thu rends run , and all classes ot freight have bicn acted on and are Included In the schedules. There Is an average re- tnctlon of ! M per cent on all frcljrht rates from St. P.iul to Spokane , a reduetlon of from I'J to HI per cent on coast r.itcs , and of from 2 lo 7 on rales to Montana , while the only castbound ro- ducllnn Is 5 cents on lumber from f > "i to f > 0 , aild the eastbound lumber rate to Chicago and St. Ixiuis remains at GO and 57' < J respectively , deductions to Spokane are the result of an appeal ny that city to the Interstate Commerce commission , and the new rates arc oven better than ordered by the commission. The reductions to Montana : ire n concession to Its commercial develop ment. Ono or two factois enter Into the situation which give It an additional Interest. The present agreement embraces only three roads instead of ten , the number subject to the old arrangement. The now tariff ox- tcnas no farther cast than Chicago , whllo the ono it supersedes provided for trans continental business. It is a notable fact hat whllo only three roads have joined In the now tariff , the transcontinental roads wore represented during the early days of the conference. Why they withdrew is not known , but no complications are expected from that quarter. The roads to the south will bo compelled to reduce their rates to I'acltlc coast points If they Intend to carry any transcontinental business at all. It Is understood that the TTnlon Pacific , whllo not directly nppearliiir in the agree ment , will coincide in the result. The new tariff directly applies to thu northwestern tier of states and the north Pacific coast points ; its influence on other territory will bo indirect. CUTTING KVTiS. : livery Itallriiad .Mini Kiiimn Ills Itlval IK DciliiK It. Freight rates are In a state of chaos. De moralization Is cverywhero noticeable , and tariffs nro openly cut from the Missouri Ivor both east and west. But as all the roads are engaged in the delectable pastime of carving rates , no one is quite willing to go on record as having enjoyed a change of heart. As an instance of what is being ilono , a factory located on the line of the Northwestern and consigning goods to Omaha parties , Is shipping its product by another road , which has to make n longer haul by twenty-live miles than the i\oith- wcstern , the direct line. Of course to freight I.gents that is n clear indication that rales are being cut. As for transeoniivjcntal rates , they have not been so demoralized in years , all the roads being engaged in meeting the "clipper" rates nud the Panama steamship trafilc with but little success , as their freight earnings for January will show. Air. CJ. McFadden , secretary of the West ot the Missouri Hivcr Freight Ilato committee , when in Omaha this \veek said i. , ; " [ L'o saj ; the least , the situation is one that does not promise much for the ftiture. Hate enttlijg , 1 presume , is made necessary by the action of tlio water lines , but I havo. no oil- ! eial knowledge of the matter , as it docs not como within the province of the freight rate committee. It means , however , that for mutual protection there will have to bo a transcontinental association ended upon the ruins of the old one , and 1 IOOK forward to the time when the Transinis&ouri will bo re organized \\ll\i \ broader powers , more con servative ideas than the old possessed. Nothing works to t no good of railroads so much as rate wars , for through them the railways reoogniro their strength and their weakness , and naturally 'got together' in consequence. At best tbe freight rate situa tion is precarious , and you can't tell what a day will biimr forth. " Kiiiluiiy Notes. B. A.

Sow AVcuthrr Iliirrun .Map Slinulng Local ities liming tl > llriuitinil. The weather bureau at Washington has recently gotten out a map showing the snow line across the country from the Pacific to the Atlantic coastIt is of special Interest to men engaged In wheat raising , for every Monday morning they can see exactly the territory covered by snow and can keep themselves pretty well posted upon the prospect for the wheat crop. The line ot snow covered area of course is likely to chingo from week to wcok , Iiut the territory far to the north is covered the greater part of the winter by several inches of the beau tiful. There are some peculiar features about the no\v line as shown un tbe map issued last Monday mprniug. On the Pacific coast it is well up to the north of the state of Cali fornia , and as it reaches the mountains it dips to the south , taking in Salt Lake City. Then turning U * the north , It formed ah Im mense loop In the state of Wyoming , passing to the north of Lander , anil , making a sud den whirl to the south' , .It takes In Cheyenne and dips down firouml Denver. Coming north again , it passes eastward to North Platte and bearing to the south clips a slice out of Kansas , takes' the north end of Mis souri in its path and reaches the Mississippi river in the vicinity of Cairo. When . the snow line reaches Indiana it bears again to the north and misses the greater part of the state , but swings back to the south agajn when it reaches Pennsylvania , passing on down below Washington and down toLynch- burg , from which point It again bears to the northeast and passes on to the Atlantic coast , reaching the ocean In the vicinity of New York. The deepest snow Is In northern Michigan and Wisconsin , where it lies twenty-live inches on u level. An honcbt pill is the noplost work of the apothecary.

CiirlotiM Kiprrlciiccn of MmmRrrn as Told toy Tlinin ol cii , Several well known theatrical men , who mot by chance In Tom Mulvihtll's ofllce , wcro discussing the effect of cold weather on the ' show business and telling fairy yarns gen erally. "How did you get through at Cheyenne ! " asked Ed Rowland , manager of "Fairies Well , " and Billy Garcn of the "My Jack" company. "I hear the manager there will not transact any business with agents. " "Ho docs not , " said Garcn , "and you must bo careful. ' He locks jou up In a room , and you tell all your uuslncss Into n phonograph , giving the reasons you forgot to leave the house program copy and newspaper ads. , all about the show , how strong the cast Is , all about the elegant scenery you carry , and everything. You have to stay in there an hour. Then when the company arrives and the performance has been given , this foxy Cheyenne manager takes the show manager Into the room and grinds out what the agent has said , and the difference between these sterling remarks and the performance causes htm to deduct all the way from 10 to 'M per cent on your sharp. " * "That's a crazy manager nt Grand Island , " said Billy Lykcns of "Puritania" fame. "When wo arrived 1 asked him for the com pany's letters , but he said we could not have the mall until after the performance , as there might be something In it that would make some of them sick and they would not bo able to act. " "At Fargo , " said Fred Wright , "there is only ono dressing room in the theater. I asked the manager if he expected twenty- three ladies and gentlemen to dress in one room. 'Why not , " ho answered , 'don't they speak ? ' " " 1 will tell you fellows something that Is hard to beat , " said Frank Martineau , agent for "Glorlana. " "For evidence as to the truthfulness of this story I will leave it to Punch Wheeler and Bert Dasher. They have been thero. But no , on second consid eration 1 will ask you to take my word for It. When 1 was up at 'Winnipeg it was so cold I had to wear a hot air stove in my plug hat. 1 dislike lo speak of cold weather up there , for if you have never been there you have no idea of It and will be inclined to discredit my statements. " The crowd hastily assured him they wo--ld place explicit confidence In everything ho said. said."Well "Well , at Winnipeg at noon on Christmas day it began to grow cold , and by U o'clock that night it was "Did you say 00 degrees below ? cro ? " asked Garcn , as the agent stopped short. "No , 1 did not mention now the thermom eter stood. Gentlemen , I want to tell the truth , the whulo truth , and nothing but the truth , and yet 1 am positive you won't bo Hove me. "Oh. yes , wo will. Wo know 'it gets awfully cold up there. Did it go to 70 on the night you refer to ( " "Gentlemen , it was a cold night. It was a polar wave sweeping through from Hudson's Bay. Had u spirit thermometer by my door so there could bo no mistake. At 0 o'clock I Jouked ut it and my hair stood up. " "Good gracious I But maybe it showed 00 below , " said the listener with the cob pipe. " [ hate to tell it , really I do , " said Marti neau. "I glvo you the honest figures ; you will bo disappointed oven if you don't call me a liar. " "No we won't , " called three or four in % a chorus. "You want the honest truth1' ? ' "Wo do. At 9 o'clock you looked at your thermometer and your hair stood up. Now then , whatdcgrco of cold did it show ? Don't bo afraid to spit it right out. " " 'Well ' , gentlemen , as 1 am a living man and upon the honor of an American citizen , it was 8 degrees below zero nearly I ) and had u man tried to sleep out doors that night with only a piece of mosquito netting 'for cover , ho would have cauirht a fearful cold sure.

County ClcrU Wnnt to Have tliu Issuing \InrrliiKu I.k-cnsc'n. The county Judges of the suite view the situation with alarm , declaring that the county clerks are after them and that they are about to lose the revenue now derived from the issuance of marriage licenses and the performing of marriage ceremonies. The clerks have a bill pending before the legislature for the passage of a law to allow them to take charge of the machinery of the marriage mill in every county in the state , though the county Judges did not discover the fact until n day or two ago. M. Ncwifian of Wahoo , Saundcrs county , was the first man who learned of the measure and nt once proceeded to notify his coworkers that the enemy was after them. In his notices which ho has sent out he calls attention to the fact that the time to strfko the iron is when It is hot , and that dc- hiys'iiro the worst things with which the Judges have to contend. Then he cites a few instances in which delays have played sad havoc , ending with this positive statement : "Tho county clerks have filed the bill , pro viding that they may issue marriage licenses , to rob our offices and enrich theirs. For the purpose of advancing our bill and preventing the clerks , sheriffs , clerks of the district court and others from filching from us what is our own , we must have a good man In the house and the senate , and with money. " Mr. Newman volunteers the Information that the work already accomplished has re quired the expenditure of $ 'MQ or $300 , and that more is needed to make the machinery run In the proper grooves. That the money may bo forthcoming , he has levied an assess ment upon every county Judge in the state. County Judge Eller , who happens to bo ono of the unfortunates , Is asked to put up $10 and ask no questions. That there will bo a fight when the Judges and clerks come together there is no longer any doubt , as each o.ticlul Is anxious to pull down the other'smeat house. Judge Eller says ( hat the judges bill is a three-time winner , whllo County Clerk Sackott openly declares that the Judge and all of his side partners are simply talking through their tiles. He says that the clerks bill Is In the best of shape and that it will pass before the Judges can form their battle lines. As n side remark ho suggests that the judges hud better keep their money in their jmcketa , as it is too late to place the long green in any locality where it will bring in returns.
