THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : SUNDAY , MARCH 2o , 1891-TWENTY PAGES. THEY WERE NOT SURPRISED Labor Officials Who Foresaw that the Oon- foronco Would Prove Pntllo. TALK WITH CHIEFS SARGENT AND CLARK , i nlltrny Kmplojr * Xntr C'oimilllng with Their AtlornpyM Mulling Itcudy fur the Content In Court TliUVcrk Yri- trnluy Among llm Mm. In a recent Interview with Grand Chief Hargcnt of the flrnmcn's brotherhood at his homo In Terre Haute , Ind. , that gentleman showed Ills thorough familiarity with the course of ov-cnts here. Ho nnd Grand Chief Clark of the conductors were there together discussing the situation on the Union nnd Northern Pacific roads. , lloth of tlicso gen tlemen stated that they had no doubt that a settlement would be reached of the dlfll- ciiltlcH nt Omaha , Whnn asked concerning tlio probabilities of a strike Mr. Sargent nald ho disliked exceedingly to hoar any talk of a strike , and up to that llmu them bad been none of It In connection with the Union Pacific difficulty. He wns In dally expectation that some one would start the story , though thorn was no foundation for It In. fact. As an Instance of how little foun dation for these stories there usually was ho cited the report of the proposed strlko which was sent out from Tiicoma , when In fact the negotiations for u settlement were Hearing completion. Talk of strikes looked too much like threats , he Hald , and It there was ono stigma they wanted to rcmnvn from organized labor moro than another It wax the Impression that the purpose of theMe organizations Is to Intimidate rallro.id man agers. Tim same telegram says that when Mr. Clark and Mr , Sargent left Tcrre Hnuto they expressed tlm opinion that no settle ment would bo arrived nt tn the then pendIng - Ing conference with Mr. Clarkt because both sides knew that Judge Caldwojl's court wns to bo the real and final place of settlement. This , In addition to the ifcvclopment of events here. Is an ofllcial confirmation of the position that has been outlined In The Den ever since the conference opened. In Addition to tlrls comes thn craullsli of the local sheet , which gave out the story of an Intended Htrlko , which It announced was certain lo occur In case Mr. C'Urk did not U once gr.int what the men asked. Thu next day brought n modification of the story. Yesterday brought u third chapter lo the Effect that It wasn't any of the members If the orgnnl/atlons interested In the pend ing controversy Hint advocated a strike , hut a man who belonged to 1.01110 other or ganization who had been Invited In to at tend a meeting of the men. Yesterday afternoon practically completed I'IIH ' preliminary work of preparing for the hearing of the case before Judges Caldwell nnd Sanhorn nnd the men nro ready when ever their turn comes In the course of busi ness In the coui t LITTLK DONE YESTKHDAY. There , worn few now developments In the Union Pacific wage conference yesterday. At hcndquartcrs tilings were particularly quiet In contrast with the stir and anima tion of the past week. President Clark wus In his olllce familiar izing himself with the testimony taken during the hearings und preparlifg to pre sent his findings to the circuit court when the wage question Is taken up. The re ceiver was averse to saying a word about tho.rcsult of the meetings on the ground that ho was the servant of the court and ho thought It would bo discourteous to the court to say nnythlng lu relation to the matters - tors In controversy until after ho had re ported the result of the conference to the bench. Ho stated , however , he was pleased that the conference was over because It had been very hard work nnd ho doubted If he could have stood the strain nnothcr week. The testimony taken during the past ten days Is very voluminous In character , which will have to be boiled down to present nny thlng like a concise statement to the court. Should the court , however , desire to read all the testimony It will be forthcoming , but the Impression seems to provnll that Judges Caldwell nnd Sanborn will rely uiran Mr. Clark's statements and then proceed to tn- qutro from the men themselves as to the grounds of difference. THK COURT KI3ADY FOR DUSINKSS. Tim prosencn of Judge Samu l II. Cnldwnll tn Omaha yoetirday brought everybody faceto face with the question , what was to bo the outcome of the visit ot the circuit court to this city to adjust wage matters on the Union Pacific. The presence of the senior circuit court Judge brought realiza tion to the men that their day In court was approaching nnd they could not help but sliow their anxloty. Throughout the morning the attorneys for the different trades were laboring on their arguments to be made and going over the evidence brought out at tlio conference. It was In fact a busy 'mornlni for everybody , ind Raster Sunday will hardly show u letup 1lV the work of formulating lines of attack and defense when the wage battle begins next week before the circuit court of the United States. FKKLINO AMONO THK MEN. H wns the quct | that follows the storm that wo * observable nmong the railroad men yesterday. The strain under which all havo' been laboring for the past week luis been relaxed t , and all took a lone breath und settled down to enjoy a brief spell of rest before the real struggle commences before - fore the court next week. This Is what the men have all along considered the mainstay In their case , and they are not going to louvo anything undone which will add to their chances of success , The heads of the various orpanlrntlons wore In consultation yesterday with their attorneys , and from this on until the case Is called In court they will bo at work preparing for what promises to bo n historic landmark In the Judicial nnd labor world. Heretofore both employes nnd employers have simply Invoked force when differences arose among them , and It was simply the survival of the flttest In a physical sense. \Vlth this case dawns a new era and law will sit enthroned whore the deposed mon arch of force nnco relgnod supreme , The rich und the powerful have heretofore been the only ones to Invoke the aid of the law nnd the moro sensible ones among the la borers now see the mistakes they have made In the past and propose to profit tliereby. Said ono of the representatives of the men , "If there Is equity In the law for the railroad companies there must be &ome- where In It Justice for the men whom the companies employ. The men Inive , somti of. . them , too long looked upon the law as only nn Instrument of oppression In the hands of the rich nnd powerful , but the men on the Union Pacllla at least Imvo discovered that Ita powers can be Just as o'ffcctlvoly Invoked In their behalf as they have ? hitherto been used to oppress them. Justice , It Is true , sometimes miscarries , but this Is tin- ex ception and not the rule , " KMl'I.OYKS ' ARK CONKIDrJNT. One of the nun stated yesterday that they hail every confidence that when the hearing In court was completed It would result In an adjustment In which not only the men but the company would ncqulcsco without u murmur. Neither sldo would -probably Ret all U contended for , but Judgsa Caldwell and Sanford vatuo Into the case without , any prejudlcu or bias born "of Interest , and having 'shown ' a disposition to bq eminently fair thuro wan no reason to look for anything but nn absolutely equitable settlement of the difficulty. They Imvo the knowledge , of the law to settle the matter * o far as the legal point * were concerned , und a reputation for Justice and fairness that gave the men confidence. They un doubtedly appreciate the fact that the eyes of practically the whole world are turned upon them and watching the outcome of tlila new departure In the Judicial proceed ings of this country. That they will allow It to fall throng , . rany Ill-advised or unjust action Is too Improbable to be presumed or Klven credence. TruiclliiK Auditor * ' The traveling auditors of the U. & 5L railroad closed n very successful two days JieotlnR yesterday , which was called for dls- ; u son ! ot various matters relating to their work , and to davlie ways and means of x bettering the service.

( Special Telegram to The Doc. ) Absolutely no progrns.i was mode today In untangling the chaotic condi tion of western passenger rotes. The pres ent contention U solely between the Atcht- son and the Union Pacific , the Northwestern being Interested as the Chicago end of the Chicago-Union Pacific and Northwestern route. It Is doubtful It there can be nny ad- vnnce In rntos , nt least Tjctwcen Chicago nnd the Missouri , until the controversy Is settled. The original fight between the Atchlson nnd Southern Pacific has been lost to night. As far as these two companies nro con cerned them Is perfect willingness to ad vance rates between the Missouri and Cali fornia points. The objection to an advnnce comes from the Union Pacific , which nntur- nlly Is fighting the battle for the North western In Its desire for an advance In the rnto to the Missouri. Llko all railroad con tracts of the kind , the ono between the Northwestern nnd Union Pacific provides thnt the origination line shall , dictate the rates. This gives the Northwestern control of westbound business and the Union Pacific n Ilko control over cnstbound business. The Atchlson docs not believe It can protect Its Interest unless It competes with each line In Its territory. This clash Is the cause of present Impossibility of making any ad vances In rates. Tlmnlird the Conductor. The life of a railroad man is not always n happy ono. The majority of travelers who sco the conductor pass through the train think he has nothing to do but to take up the tickets nml punch llttlo holes In them , and roundly Imagines that he has n snap that docs not fall to the lot of ordinary mortals. To those who knew them best , however , tills Is not the case. Throughout the railroad service , no mater what hnppons the railroad man Is at the service of the public , nnd no matter nt the cost of how much personal discomfort ho must cure for those who have been placed In bis care. When thcso services arc shown to be appre ciated no one relishes b .ter than the rail road man the commend .tlon ot well done. During the late snow blockades the fTasson- gers on the blockaded trains were unavoid ably compelled to submit to many dis comforts , but the following resolutions show that they appreciate the efforts of the train men to make them ns light as possible. General Vnssenger Agent Lnmax received the following from Hlllsdale yesterday : Allow us , passengers on the westbound flyer , detained here by the blizzard for over thirty hours , to express our appreciation of the services of J. Q. Anderson , conductor , and the other trainmen and servants In pro viding for our relief and comfort. We be lieve they have done nil they could for us and wo desire to commend them accordingly. S.

This wns signed by a number ot other passengers on the train. EBISON'S LATEST. A niiirlous Photographic Machine 8uc- ecHsfully Tosled. The strongest man on earth , to quote 'tho play-bills , and the greatest inventor of thej ago met yesterday at Menlo Park , N. J. ( ways the Now York Herald. The meeting was an Interesting one , and the giant of brain and the giant of muscle found much to admire In each * other. Sandow mar veled at Kdlson's Inventions , nnd the wizard gazed longingly and enviously at the prodigious muscles of the strong man. The latest development of Kdlson's genius In the line of photography , on which ho has been working for the past flvo years , the klnetoscope , was practically completed a few days ago , nnd In casting about for a unique subject for the first photograph by thu new process ICdlson chose Sandow us the most fitting nnd striking character. Accompanied by John Koster ot Kostcr & Ulal's , Manager C. I ) . Cllne and R. T. Hulnes of the Northwestern Telephone com pany , Sandow took' the Delaware & Lacka- wunna train at 11 o'clock yesterday morning for Menlo Park. Kdlson met the quartet ut the depot. The main principle of the klnetoscope , ns Is already known , consists In the taking of a great number of Impressions by a camera In a limited space at time , thus ob taining n continuous photograph of the on tlro motion of the object or person. The photographs follow each other In such rapid succession that no lapse of time can be de tected between the Impressions recorded , nnd the series of pictures becomes In effect but OIIP plrt'irc Then proceeding to the studio. Edison und Sandow walked nrm In arm. The studio Is a building apart from the factory. It Is so constructed as to movu with the sun , so that the luminary which shines through an aperture about twenty feet In width will always shlhd directly on the object or person being photographed , the. object being to get a perfect focus. The building , as It turns , rolls like a ship , being erected on a bert of pivot. The walls , floor und colling of the studio are black. The machine for taking pictures consists of u large , square box , about - xl : feet. ThoBllde , ; , however. Is , different from thu ordinary , as It Is revolving , Hack of the spring Is a sensitive gelatine plate In the form of U'tband that runs on two rollers. The rollers are revolved rapidly by elec tricity. Forty-six pictures arc taken In ono second and the exposure lasts twenty seconds the length of the tlmo required to unroll thu band. The cnmcra Is kept behind n curtain In complete darkness and when the person Is ready to , po | pji.qtographud tlio curtain is drawn aside , tlni camera pushed forward enrollers rollers and the exposure takes place. The opening In the camera Is but three Inches In width and the pictures are un Inch square , though the Inventor say's bo will be ublo , to tuko pictures of larger slza soon. Sandow showed his o'ght well known move ments tor tlio distension' the muscles. These had to bo done within twenty seconds , the tlmo of the exposure , so It necessitated some practice beforehand , The plates secured were declared perfect. "Lot's gpt our pictures taken together , " said Kdlsoiu ' 'I ' should , consider It uu honor and a privllegej" replied Sandow , und In a few moments the picture was taken , Tim More T.ocUfd forTwi ntyl'l\ Year * . "One of the curiosities to be found In southern Ohio , not far from Cullllcothe , Is a country store , " said It. 0. Wortham to the Globe-Democrat. "A country store Is not usually nn object of special Interest , but this ono has remained as It now Is for over thirty years without the change ot a single article. When the war broke out the man who owned the stora had a son. The father was Intensely loyal , and persuaded the son to enlist , promising the son that If ho should enlist the store and Its contents should bo bis when be returned. Another call for troops came , and the old man locked up the store and shouldered a muskat. He remained In the army until peace was de clared und then returned to bis home. Ills wlfo hud died In the meantime , und no tl > dings had ever been received from thu son , Thn father worked a small farm that ho owned , but never cntyred the store , saying that It should bo there as It wus when the ban came homo to claim It. A quarter of a century has to no , but no word yet from the missing son , and the itoro stands loclnl Just as It was over thirty years ago , the old man , now In his dotage , refusing to allow any one to enter It.

GLAD THE FIGHT IS OVER Iowa Legislators Tired of tlio Liquor Regu lation Struggle. ALL MEMBERS NOT WHOLLY SATISFIED I'.vrii Tliour Who Voted fur llm Modification Mrn nro In Miiny Iinlnnrn Ito- Kiird It UK it Tempo rary Relief. DBS MOINE3. March 2J. ( Special to The Bee. ) The members ot both houses lirc.itho a sigh of relief over the end ot the struggle to modify the prohibitory law. The mulct bill ran the _ gauntlet In the lower home In a most rem'arknblu manner , ami narrowly escaped defeat frequently , points being scored In some cases by only a single vote. Senator Ellis of Clinton , who has led the light for local option , says the bill Is full of Imperfections , but la an entering wcdgo In tliu right direction. Senator Upton of Howard thinks that the bill will do for a makeshift until the next legislature has an opportunity to enact n more reasonable law on the subject. Senator Brewer , whoso heart was set on the Gatch-Brower bill , was Jlio last ot the local optlonlsts to capitulate , and ho did It only nt the urgent personal request of Chair man Blythe of the state committee , and Illod the following explanation of bis vote : "Mr. President This bill does not meet with myfull accord. It has provisions that ro distasteful to my convictions of that which Is best , but to which I yield In the face of the great need that Is everywhere manifest of better regulation and control of the liquor trafllc than now exists , and which the supporters of this bill bellevo will re sult If It becomes n law. It Is better than an unfulfilled pledge to the people. " Senator Cheshire of Polk , after quoting the resolution of the late city convention , urging the members of thu legislature to support any measure that would actively carry out the pledges of the party , said : "Leading republicans In various sections of the county , outside of the city ot DCS Molnes , who have for years been recognized leaders of the prohibition clement of the party , hav4 appealed to mo to disregard the republican county platform , tn view of the 'declarations In the state platform , and the agreement to pass a resolution for ro- submlsslon. Believing that the thirteenth plank of the republican state platform should bo carried out in good faith , and that I nm now released from further withholding my vote from a measure with that purpose In vew | , I vote yea. " Senator Conaway of Mahaska , who lives In n prohibition town and was expected to hold out to the last , said : "Mr. President In explaining my vote I desire to say that I am n prohibitionist from principle. It Is repulsive to mo to be com pelled to vote for this bill with the provision permitting the drug stores to continue to deluge the communities with whisky free of charge , while other saloonkeepers arc com pelled to pay a license for doing the same thing. But my constituents have demanded , by petitions to me , personally , that I ren der to them a duty which they have a right to demand of me. I therefore yield to their behests , und with them shall rest the re sponsibility. I vote yen. " Of the eight republicans who Joined the democrats In opposition to this measure , only two explained their votes. Senator Chantry of Mills said : "Mr. President I am constrained to vote against this measure from a sense of fidelity to what I know to bo the prevailing senti ment of my district ; also believing any law which levies a tax and Is not of uniform operation throughout the state Is of doubtful constitutionality ; and viewing the matter from tlm standpoint of the thlrteenh plank of the last republican platform , I am unable to bellevo that this measure Is of a character that will so control and regulate the liquor trafllc as will bost/lservo the ca'use of tem perance and morality. " Senator Finn of Taylor , who has made a factious opposition from the very beginning ot the. session to any form of modification , filed the following protest : ' "The bill , In my Judgment , Is In violation ot the promise made In the platform of my party , which was that the present law should be maintained In certain localities named , and other methods ot controlling the liquor trafllc In the Interest of temperance and morality be given to other parts of the state only. Tlio bill undertakes to change the law generally throughout the ontlro common wealth and to all localities alike , and such a law will not 'best servo the cause of temper ance and morality' anywhere. I bellevo ln- ebrtqty to bo a disease of the most pltlablo and unfortunate character ono that the state should bo protected against as much as smallpox or any deadly contagion. The tendency of the saloon Is to spread , and every concession made to the saloon keeper Is In Its furtherance. To grant him license Is to empower and aid him to enlarge tho' number of his victims. "Tho character of this bill stands to the democratic bill ( against which I voted ) as varlolold does to'smallpox ; the only differ ence being ns to vlruloncy of form. I believe the state should be quarantined as far ns possible against every such ailment. The tendency ot the bill Is to recognize the legal existence of the saloon , In direct opposition to the established and declared doctrine of the party to which I belong for the last twelve years. In my Judgment , drunkenness , gambling nnd pros titution are ovlls ullko to bo deplored , and the proposition to establish or license places for .the furtherance or carrying on of either Is unworthy a patriotic citizenship. The proposal to make the public share the pro ceeds of such' evils by a tux or license fee exacted only makes the thought more ob jectionable and abhorrent. If they exist It should not be by sanction of law , and nil three should bo outlaws alike. The filing of these protests closed ono 61 the most memorable and dramatic scones over witnessed In the legislative halls of Iowa. The senate passed the following bills : By Jnmlson , tnxlng costs In bastardy cases to tho. defendant as In criminal actions ; by Harper , requiring manufactories , hotels or buildings used for the assembling of persons of three rfr moro stories In height to provide safe rope fire escapes. House bill , by DInnchard , authorizing cities ot second class and having not less than d.OOO Inhabitants to levy a special fund was passed. The bill recommended by the State Minors as sociation for regulation of mines was dis cussed ut length , but no action taken. The senata special committee appointed to draft rn , .prohibitory amendment to sub mit to tlio people has declined to accept tlio Cornwall self-enforcing amendment passed by "llm house nnd will favor the submission of the single manufacturing clause , but the house will likely refuse to agree to this change. The house pasted a bill prohibiting coloring of Imitation butter und cheese to resemble the genuine product ; also a bill limiting the compensation of sheriffs and their deputies. The salaries fixed affect counties only of not less than 28,000 , Where the umount Is limited to $2,300 , and over 45,000 to $3,000. The de puties get $1,00 * ) each In all cases.

Hlliled Down tlio Illxtnrln Lookout Mountain ut Lightning Spuitd , A short , compactly built man , with a heavy blond mustache took a toboggan slide down Lookout mountain the other afternoon. Ho went via the Incline , and made the trip from Point hotel to the engine house , u distance of1,500 feet , lu three nnd one- half minutes , which Is Just one-third the time that It takes a car to descend , re marks the Chattanooga Times , Fully 100 people saw him' make the lightning like descent , and all Ypru greatly excited. The nervy coaster , however , was nt > coal ns the proverbial cucumber , and , upon reaching the foot of the mountain , walked nway as coolly as though It had taken him an hour to de scend. About 4 o'clock the coaster appeared ut the Point hotpl with what appeared to bo u block of wood about eight Indies siiuaro under his arm. On ono side of thu block was a ntool horoshoo , In the curve of which was a small Hanged wheel. The other Kldo of the block was slightly concave. The block vas put on the outsldo rail of tlio Incline , the wheel fitting close , and the horiiH of the horseshoe were on either Hide , Then the man put a heavy glove on his right hand , nnd sitting down pn the block started down the mountain without moro ado , Ho held his feet erased straight before him , aixl rested them on the Iron rail. For a few feet the little one-wheel car moved slowly , and then the speed Increased until It nnd Its human freight were going down the mountain at a rate that made the spectators hold their breath. When n curve wus reached the coaster nlowed up Nllfihtly by pressing hi a hcelu against thu rail and steadied himself by touching the rabla with his gloved hand. Finally , when he reached the very heavy grade Juot above the engine- house , ho took oft all the brakes and came down like a shot out of a gun. Arriving at the bottom , ho put on the "heel" brakes and gently came to u stop Just In the depot. Coolly rising from his queer vehicle ho placed It under his arm and walked quietly away before any of the astonished specta tors had any chance to recover their breather or ask any questions with rasp that uaed to worry nnd rnbnil.it me.
