NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Opening of the Now Telephone Exchange
in the Baldwin Block.
MANAGER ATKINS HOLDS A LEVEE
New fltrltch Hoard anil Appliance ! Sold to
lie the Ilcitt injoyod by Any City the
Size of Council Illnrin Clmngo
Made Without C'onfunion.
A society event that excited more Interest
than any other during the week and In
wider and moro cosmopolitan circles , oc
curred at fi o'clock yesterday afternoon
1C very business and professional man and
all others In the city who u < e telephones
had been notified , and a large number o :
handsomely printed Invitations had been sen
around Inviting the rccelplcnts to be pres
ent. The event was the opening of the new
telephone exchange , or rather the doing
away With the old "hello" system and the
abandonment of the old quarters and the
removal of the exchange to the handsome
apartments on the sixth floor ot the Dald-
vvln block. Its social features were onlj
enjoyed by the ladles and gentlemen who
had responded to the Invitations and were
present In the new building , but the Inter
est In the removal was shared by all users
of the 'phones.
The new multiple switchboard and all the
other new things that have been called forte
to complete the system at a cost of over
$10,000 to the telephone company have been
In process of arrangement for several weeks ,
and it was generally supposed that when
the time of actual removal came there would
bo dire confusion and that eveiy man who
had any respect for his temper or regard
for the welfare of his soul would keep away
from his 'phone while the actual removal
was In piogrcss at 5 o'clock. An hour be
fore there was a gicat rush of business at
the old exchange , and every man who could
think of anything he wanted to say over
the wlro was anxious to say It bcforo the
clock struck 5. And then there was a lull ,
and the change was made , and nobody knew
It. The operators staid at their places In
front of the old board In the old building
until D o'clock. Ilxtra operators were at
the new board , and the rooms were filled
with ladles and gentlemen attending the
"opening. " Manager Lane of the Omaha
exchange assisted Manager Atkins In ex
plaining the m > sterlous simplicity of
the new system , and Miss McClure -
Cluro and Miss Duncan , chief
operator , nnd her assistant of the Omaha
exchange , were all present and gave the op
erators their final Instructions. Mr. Hopf
of the Western Hlcctrlc company and Mr.
Owynne , galvanometer man of the Nebraska
Telephone company , were also present. Only
a few of those collected with the exchange
and the operators knew when the change
was made and the subtle current left the
old quarters and took up Its permanent
abode In the new , and while the visitors
were waiting for something to signalize the
event , vaguely expecting an explosion , a
swish , a. whirr or a roar ot nome kind , or at
least a little flash , the operators at the
board were pulling plugs and things , chatting
In Inaudible tones and attending to their
duties to telephone subbcrlbers. The change
had been made nnd none of the guests of
the occasion had been made aw are of it.
The new board Is less than one-half as
bulky as the old , but It Is many times
larger , and Its method of operating vastly
more simple. It Is in multiple , and each
operator can Instantly make connection be
tween anv two numbers on the board with
out the Intervention of an assistant , the
cause of so much vexatious delay under the
old system. Manager" Lane of the Omaha
exchange , , looking proudly over the new
plant nnd congratulating Manager Atkins
upon his new quarters , remarked : "There
Is no city In the world with the same sized
exchange that has such a fine and perfect
telephone plant , and the people of Council
Bluffs ought to congratulate themselves and
appreciate It. "
The location of the new office Is certainly
as line as could bo desired In every respect ,
both for the convenience of the public and
the operators. The public telephone Is in
closed in double plate glass , giving the ut
most privacy. There Is no moro noise and
confusion in the operating room than there
Is at a Quaker prayer meeting , the an
swers to calls being 'made in tones that
could not be heard three feet away.
The new board calls for an entire change
In manner of calling for connections with
subscribers , and there will be some little
difficulty and confusion until the people who
use the 'phones become accustomed to the
new rules. The principal thing necessary
to Insure good service Is to promptly answer
your telephone when It rings and not ring
back when you are callefli All that the
person wanting to telephone will be re
quired to do Is to give one ring , * nd that
ring calls the central office. You then give
the number you want , but do not ring again.
The operator does that for you. Here are
the rules that must be observed faithfully
by the public If good service is to be ob
tained :
First To call , give the crank one quick
turn. Immediately put the hand telephone
to your ear. When the operator Inquires
"Number ? " give the number of the par.y
you want. The operator will Instantly
connect the wires and ring your party for
you. Keep the telephone to your ear. The
party you want vvlll answer without your
ringing.
Second When called do not ring back ,
but at once put the telephone to your ear
and talk.
Third Always ring oft when through
talking. ,
Fourth Never ring jour bell except to
call cential or disconnect.
Fifth Answer your bell promptly. You
will only be rung twice , and , If you do not
answer , calling party vvlll be so InformeJ ,
If the above rules ate not followed satis
factory service cannot be given.

Look After-tho Vet .
The department encampment of the Grand
Army of the Republic , which meets hero the
19th , 20th and 21st of this month , promises
to be one of the most Interesting recently
held. Judging from past experience , from
5,000 to 10,000 people will be here at least
one of these days the day of the parade.
There are 700 delegates alone , comprising
prominent men of all political parties In the
state , and of all civic societies , particularly
Masons , Odd Fellows and Knights of
Pythias. The encampment vvlll be held In
Dohany's opera house , and the delegates and
visitors will bo quartered In hotels , and
with private families. The restaurants and
hotels will bo taxed to their utmost to en
tertain these guests , especially as the Grand
hotel Is not likely to be open at that time.
The citizens of Council llluffs must open
their houses to these guests and in every
way seek to make their stay hero pleasant.
The good name of the city Is at stake
In the matter , and It should be looked to
that the entertainment does not fall behind
that accorded this Influential body of citi
zens at former encampments. The Masons
Odd Fellows. Knights of Pjthlas and other
similar bodies ought to appoint reception
committees to act with the citizens' commit
tee to properly receive their visiting brothers.
The public Is reminded that the encamp
ment was Invited to come by the manufac
turers club and by the city council , and not
jy Abe Lincoln post , so that the entertain
ment of the visitors Is a matter which the
city must look after , not expecting Abe Lin
coln post to take the lead In any matter per
taining to It.
Houses should be decorated , particularly
the business houses , as they have never been
decorated before. Open the house * to the
juostn. make every effort possible to enter
tain them that they uiajr purrjc v > ltU them
kindly remembrances of their visit , H will
pay to do this.
Thousinda of dollar * will be left lit tha
city , nnd tno citizens can afford to bo
liberal In t'.io matter of providing suitable
entertainment for the strangers who shall
tarry within their gates. The encampment
will nnvcr be hero again. Let It bo royally
provided for on the 19th , 20th nnd 21st.

WEBSTER CITY , la. , Juno 2. ( Special
Telegram to The Bee. ) A small yellow worm
about an Inch long and resembling the
black thousand-legged worm that Is usually
found In decayed timber , has made its ap
pearance In the corn fields In this section ,
and is creating havoc with the coming crop.
It Is thought to be a worm that thrives only
In extremely dry seasons. It Is eating the
roots of the corn , and boring Into the kernels
In the ground , killing the germ. It Is esti
mated that with copious rains from now on
the oat crop here will not mature more than
half , and farmers are finding It necessary to
feed stock In the pastures hay , on Ing to the
continued dry spell.

MILITIA WAS CALLED OUT
Governor Matthews of Indiana Calls Oul
Soldiers to Protect Coal Trains.
HE AT FIRST FLATLY REFUSED
Attitude of the 'Miners Ilernmn So Threat
ening Ho Mimlly Yielded Nine C'oin-
iwnles of Infantry niul Onn ot
Artillery Now on Duty ,
INDIANAPOLIS , June 2. The governor
has ordered out the mllltla. Nine compa
nies , Including one of artillery , will start
Immediately for the coal llclds by special
train.
At the governor's office this morning every
one was In a state ot expectancy. Although
the first Information given out lit the execu
tive office to the effect that the mllltla
would not be ordered out at least today , the
day was not far advanced when the aspect
of affairs assumed aery serious plms < e.
This was caused by reports which were re
ceived from the Shclburn and Washington
mining districts which told of the deter
mined stand the miners had taken to pre
vent the moving of coal trains In spite of
the governor's warning.
Sheriff Mills asked for the mllltla last
night on the ground that he couldn't move
the blockaded coal trains , but Governor
Matthews refuted his consent. Asked what
his position In the matter was the governor
said , "I am not In a position to make an )
statement. As a citizen I earnestly hope
the miners will win the strike. They de
serve more pay than they have been re
ceiving. I also hope the differences wilt be
adjusted satisfactorily to both operators and
miners. 1 hope that the laws will be re
spected and when the troubles end the miners
can say tha they have won , which will be
the case If they do not UPC violence. "
Sheriff Mills went home and endeavored ,
at the governor's advice , to collect n posse
of fifty deputies to go to Shelburh to move
the coal trains. The sheriff found great
difficulty in securing men , and merchants
and clerks set off for the woods to avoid
service. The sympathy of the cltl/ens v\as
all on the side of the miners.
The governor at noon received a message
from the slerlff of Davles county stating
that all hope of a settlement of the diffi
culty had been abandoned. The situation
was growing more alarming , and he made a
renewed request for troops. The adjutant
general was ordered by the governor to
call for nine companies. Four of them
are from Indianapolis. A Galling gun
squad from this city was also ordered. The
governor declined to announce } he names
of the companies. It was kept quiet to
prevent an Interception of the soldiers while
on the way. The adjutant general at once
began arranging for a special train to carry
the troops from here. The aggregate num
ber of soldiers Is 4EO men.
The governor said this afternoon that he
would order troops to Shelburn this after
noon. Not less than 200 men will be ordered
to go there. They will be under the com
mand of Brigadier General M. G. McKee of
Indianapolis. Adjutant General Robbing will
command the troops at Cannelsburg. Mobt
attention has been given to the companies
going there , because of the seriousness of
the situation , the distance to be traveled
and the number of men going. The forces
going to Cannelsburg and Shelburn , the
governor says , may be more than Is actually
necessary. A large number Is regarded as
n protection In Itself to the soldiers by con
trolling the strikers.
WASHINGTON , Ind. , June 2 Five hun
dred men at Cannelburg , five miles east of
here , have compelled conductors on the Bal-
t more & Sauthvv.st rn to .Idet-ack forty car
loads of coal In transit from Cincinnati to
St. Louis. They have derailed three cars ,
upset one and torn up the track of the
switch track. Injunction papeis were
served , but no attention was paid to them.
The sheriff then telegraphed the governor
for troops. The Cannelburg miners are
aided by miners from this city and Mont
gomery.

COLORADO SPRINGS , Colo. , Juno 2.
The city Is in a very excited state over the
prospects ot an early battle between the
miners at Bull Hill and the sheriff's army
now camped at Divide. Today 350 deputies
left the city on street cars for Manltou ,
where they boarded a Midland train for the
camp , and tonight 200 more went over the
same loute. This last reinforcement was
accompanied by a corps of surgeons and
enough supplies to last them several days.
There are now 700 deputies at Divide. \ The
march airalnst the miners' camp will not
bo made until the number Is Increased to
1,000.
The miners' union at Cripple Creek today
Issued a statement giving their side of the
trouble between the miners and the mine
owners. It recite that on January 1 there
were forty-nine producing mines In the
camp ; that of these thirty-eight were workIng -
Ing eight-hour shifts , nine working nine
and the remainder ten hours , all for W per
day. The miners gave notice that on Janu
ary 28 they would demand uniform wages of
$3 for a day of eight hours' work. This the
operators refused to concede.
The conference between Governor Walto
and the mine owners will , In all probability ,
amount to nothing. The conference began
at 3 o'clock this afternoon and reassembled
tonight , and at this hour , 10-30 o'clock , Is
still In progress. Governor Walto demanded
that all strikers should bo granted Immunity
from prosecution for past acts , and there Is
no llkllhood that the owners will consent to
this proposition.
John Calderwood , president of the Miners'
union , Is here , but sat In n separate room
In the Colorado college , where the conference
was held. While there Deputy United
States Marshal Wlro approached him and
thrust a document Into Caldervv cod's hands ,
but neither would divulge Its contents. It
Is believed the paper Is a citation from the
federal courts , Issued at the Instance ! ot the
Raven Mining company. Citizens swarmed
about the college building during both the
afternoon and night sessions.
The people did not harm Calderwood , but
his arrest or worse was prevented only by
police Interference ,
The mine owners consented to pay the
wages demanded by the strikers , but re
fused to employ any but union men. When
Informed of this Governor Walte said
"When the mine owners appoint a man
to arbitrate , then I urn ready to do BO. I
will not arbitrate with every lawyer In Colorado
rado Springs. "
Sheriff Bowers served the governor with
official notice calling for troops. Wulte re
plied , shaking his list : "If the mlno owners
want peace they can have It In five min
utes. "
Conl Miners Arrtmted forObntructlng Trulim.
ST. JOSEPH , June 2. Sheriff Carson and
his deputies , accompanied by United States
deputy marshals , recaptured the train btolen
by the Richmond miners at Agency. When
the posse reached Agency they found but
a few of the men , the balance having de
serted when they heard the officers vvcro
coming. The deputies charged those who
remained , when they broke Into the timber
and but five were captured. The remainder
were chased over the country and a dozen
were captured. Those captured wen brought
back to this city at 11 o'clock tonight and
locked up In Jail. Armed parties are
