Now that the flnanclal question haa Iwen
nettled , all slgna point toward tbo early
completion of two etrlps ot railroad that
mean much for tlio betterment o ( Omaha
aa a commercial center. They arc the
thirty-four mile lint- from Trenton , the
terminus of the Qulncy , Omaha & K.ir.saa
City , to I'attonshurK , the eastern terminus
of the Omaha & St. Louis , and the strip of
ninety o < ld miles between 1'attonshurg and
Kansas City.
AwiUtant General Manager Webster of
the Omaha Terminal company said yesterday
morning : " 1 was In Kansas City last week
and bad a long talk with President Stlllwcll
of tin company that In at work upon these
Improvements , lie told me that be confi
dently expected trains to he running over
both of these new branches anil Into Omaha
by July 1 of next year. This would Indicate
that the actual work of construction will
not be begun until spring , though the work
of obtaining the rlsht of way and of mak
ing the preliminary surveys may go right
along this fall.
"Our company has all Ita plans for the
terminals by which these roads will enter
Omaha completed , and we are only waiting
for some action on their part before starting
our work. I am of the opinion that the
road from Pattonsburg to Kansas City will
bo built llrrt , and la of the greatest Im
portance to Omaha , aa It will open up a
through route to the south. The building of
the ll'fo from Pattonsburg to Trenton Is also
of Importance , but Its value to Omaha
largely depends upon the construction of a
road'tilling up the gap between Qulncy and
Ilcanlslown. That work has not yet been >
provided for. and It must bo done before
Omaha can sc-o Its way clear to a connection
with the Daltlmore & Ohio and through
connection .with the Atlantic .seaboard Inde
pendent of Chicago and St. Louis. "
Theodore Oilman of New York , the head
the syndicate which will control both of
the proposed roads , and J. M. Trumble cf ,
Kansas City , vice president of the Missouri.
Karma & Texas Trust company , were In
Qulncy on Friday of last week , endeavoring
to arrange matters so that the work of buildIng -
Ing could bo proceeded with at once. Thero.
they were Interviewed by a reporter and
appeared most sanguine concerning the
early construction of the two bits of railroading
reading that are so ardently desired In this
part of the country. They placed the date
for the beginning of actual building work
even earlier than did President Stlllwcll In
lite Interview with Mr. Webster.
HOI'B FOR AN ADJUSTMENT.
Among inner lumgB .ur. uiiuiau b.im ;
"Our visit to Qulncy Is to smooth over
certain proceedings of a dilatory charactet
which have developed In Qulncy. I refer
to Mr. Rlcker's action In regard to his
holding of bonds. He asks a price for them
that Is entirely too high , and this dilatory
proceeding coming from Qulncy Is a surprise
to us , fcr Qulncy will be benefited by the
consolidation of the two roads more than
any other city. Were the dilatory proceed
ings of a serious nature It might work to
the defeat of the whole project and lead to
the consolidation of the Omaha & St. Louis
road with the Keokuk & Western , leaving
Qulncy out altogether. Hut I have seen Mr.
Itlckcr today and had a long talk with him ,
and am satisfied that the matter will be
amicably adjusted.
"When this matter Is adjusted we will
ho ready to go ahead with the construction
of the connecting link of thirty-four miles
of road from Trenton to Pattcnsburg. con-
tolldatlng the Qulncy. Omaha & Kansas City
and Ouiaha & St. Louis roads Into one , and
making a through line from Qulncy to
Omaha. It will bo known as the Omaha ,
Kansas City & Eastern , or 'Qulncy route. '
Wo want to have that link constructed as
soon as pcsslble. All the legal preliminary
work In New York has been completed. The
syndicate has plenty of money , and la
anxious to get to work. I have already
been negotiating with contractors , though ,
of course , only In an Informal way. DIiU
will bo advertised for In a very short time ,
but I cannot tell yet whether they will ho
opened In Qulncy or Kansas City. "
"How long will it take to construct the
connecting link ? "
"That will depend upon the weather and
the equipment of the contractor who gets
the Job. If the contract for construction goes
to a largo contractor and ho puts a big
force of men at work the thirty-four miles
of road ought to be built In a very short
time , say thirty days or eo , provided , of
course , the weather docs not Interfere and
delay building operations.
"Then you expect to build the road this
fall ? "
"Certainly. Wo expect to commence the
work of construction at once , and will push
it as fast as possible. Will we have It com
pleted by Chrlttmas ? Well , I do not want
to bo ovcrsangulno and name any certain
day BO near at hand for the completion of
the connection. The weather may bo bad
and delay the work eomcwhat , but It will
bo pushed as fast as men and money can
do It. The syndicate has plenty of money
and Is anxious to have the two road-j con
nected before the extremely bad weather of
winter sets In. The line la all surveyed
nnd the utakes set , so that everything la In
readiness to let the contract and commence
the actual work of construction. "
"The delay thus far , " continued Mr. Gilman -
man , "haa been occasioned by the neces
sary legal preliminaries and formalities In
Now York. Trust companies had to be sat
isfied , certificates engraved , and all that eort
of thing , all of which took time. All that

Hallway men In this p rt of the country
were at first startled and then amused last
\n-ck to read In a local publication tbat all
the railroads running out of Omaha were
cutting the wag ? * ! of their employes anil dis
charging section men. The Icwa lines
espcclolly uere represented as being In
terrible stralt-i because of an alleged lack of
business. The Dec hns made Inquiry con
cerning these redtirtlons , and the Import
' of answers received from railway men who
I should know whereof they speak Is that
! the matter has been greyly exaggerated ,
j It waa said that the Milwaukee had taken
j off nearly forty crews on Its Iowa division ,
j and that thcro had been a big reduction in
the number of freight trains on that division.
I This was news to the local representatives
of the Milwaukee. Traveling Freight and
Passenger Agent Howell smiled when he
heard the statement , and remarked that he
hadn't known before that the Milwaukee
ever operated forty crews on Ita Iowa
i division. General Agent Nash telegraphed
I to Superintendent Gibson for Information ,
I and learned that Instead of forty crews ,
1 exactly five had been taken off. These five
j crows were not even regular crews. They
were extra crews that had been pressed Into
service to handle the Immense amount of
grain that was rushed onto the road Just
prior to the Increase In rates. When the
grain rates were restored on November 2 ,
the heavy movement ceased and there was no
longer occasion for the employment of
extra crews. The Milwaukee has not taken
off any of Ita trains , freight or passenger.
General Manager TruesJale of the Hock
Island , who was In the city the other day ,
also expressed surprise when told that a
local paper was cutting down his operating
department for him at the rate of twenty
crews per publication. He smiled and asked
where In the world such erroneous Informa
tion originated. He said that when the rush
of grain ceased , a few extra crews that had
been employed to help handle It were let
out. No regular crews had been dis
charged.
General Agent Ktthn of the Northwest
ern , whose road was put down tor the re
lease of twenty crewn , was also surprised to
read such a statement. He Immediately tele
graphed Superintendent Ilallenbeck and
learned that the statement was an exaggera
tion. The superintendent replied that only
a few extra crews had been dismissed , nnd
they because the vast amount of business
that was rushed In on the cheap rates had
diminished somewhat. The movement of
freight Is gcod for this time of the year.
Were It not for the fact that the movement
just prior to the withdrawal of-the cut rates
was something almost unprecedented , no
diminution would now be noticed.
A reduction of wages of from 10 te20 per
cent was announced unions some of the em
ployes of the St. Joseph & Grand Island.
l ! < \ri . -il Mntinf f i. nipt/lnson nf thA TTnlnn
Pacific , which used to operate the former
road , admitted that while the St. Joseph &
Grand Island was under separate manage
ment , he knew something of Its affairs. Ho
had not heard of any cut In wages on the
road. He said that In the winter there was
usually loss work along the road , and In
consequence the number of crews were gen
erally shortened , and sometimes the hours
were reduced.
The Hurllngton was said to have made
quite a cut In wages. General Manager
Holijregs. lu speaking of the matter , yester
day morning , ald : "All railroads reduce the
number of section men employed , or shorten
tbo hours of these retained , during tlio
winter season. There Is lees work along
the line that can be done at that time of
the year. There has been a reduction of
one hour a day In the time of some ot the
section men on the Rurllngton. Some of
the men who formerly worked ten hours a
day are now working nine hours' time. This
Is no more severe cut than Is usually made ,
end not so ted by a great deal as has often
been made. I believe over In Iowa now ,
most of the section men are working but
eight hours , no that even the men on the
Burlington who have had their time
shortened are still one hour ahead of their
Iowa brotbers.'J

The evidence for the plaintiff In the case
of the World Publishing company
agaln t The Ueo Publishing company for
alleged libel Is all In and the defendant has
commenced the Introduction of testimony
to refute the evidence offered to support
the allegation that the plaintiff was In
jured , financially , by the printing of an
article In The Dec to the effect that the
World-Herald was about to consolidate with
the Council 1luffs ! Nonpareil.
G. M. Hitchcock of the World-Herald was
on the stand a short tlmo yester
day morning and testified that the
year following the month of Oc
tober , 1S93 , the month when the al
leged libeloue article appeared , waa hotter
from a business standpoint than the year
preceding that time. This evidence was In
support of his allegation that the cash re
ceipts of the World-Herald had fallen oft In
ISOtJ on account of the alleged llbclous
publication. On cross-examination Mr.
Hitchcock said that N. I ) . Falconer nnd the
Morse Dry Gooda company , two of the larg-
c-st advertisers In the city , had failed ; Fal
coner In October. 1S93 , and the Morse com
pany during the summer of the same year.
The attorneys for the World-Herald an
nounced that they had no further evidence
to offer. The attorneys for The lice then
moved to strike out a sheet of figures put In
evidence by the World-Herald , purporting
to dhow tbo cash receipts ofthat concern
during the first five months of 1S93 , as com
pared with the same period In 1S93. and
showing that the cash receipts had fallen off
about $7,000 la 1S3G. as compared with 1S95.
Judge Wakeley , for The nee. argued that It
had not been shown that the carnlnga of
the paper had fallen off and that It had not
been shown that the falling off In cash
receipts waa due In any way to the article
In controversy. The attorney arguiMl that
because the cash receipts had fallen off was
no indication that the earnings had fallen
off , and even if there waa any connection ,
there was nothing In evidence to show that
the falling off was chargeable to the alleged
llbclous article.
The motion to strike out was sustained by
the court , and the introduction of evidence
for the defendant was commenced.
MADE NO DIFFERENCE WITH THE DANK
Frederick H. Davis , cashier of the First
National bank , was the first witness called
by the defendant. Ho testified that the
bank carried a largo amount of "paper" for
the World-Herald , both before and after
October , 1S95. In rebutting an assertion by
Mr. Hitchcock to the effect that he ( Hitch
cock ) had been " "
compelled to "take up" a
after the publication of the article com
plained of. Mr. Davli said the paper Mr.
Hitchcock had taken up consisted of notes
made by N. 11. Falconer , which Hitchcock
had discounted at the bank and which the
bank refused to carry any longer on account
of Falconer's financial condition. Mr. Davis
also testified that he had been trying for
years to get Hitchcock to reduce his In
debtedness to the hank and did not Increase
his efforts in that direction after the pub
lication of the article In question , because
he said he thought he knew more about the
financial condition of the World-Herald
than the man who wrote the article , and
did not believe It was true. On cross-
examination the plaintiff tried to get Mr.
Davis to say that the World-Herald had
reduced Its Indebtedness to the bank after
the publication , but Mr. Davis very posi
tively denied that this was the i-ase.
N. P. Fell , business manager of The Dee
was called to testify to the use made by
eastern advertisers of the copies of The
Bee mailed to them each. day. He had tes
tified for the plaintiff that The Use was
mallei ! each day to these advertisers , but at
that time the plaintiff refused to let Mr.
Fell tell what use was made of these papers
by these advertisers. He testified
yesterday morning that he had
been In the offices of many of
these advertisers and thad seen Just what
disposition was made of these papers. Includ
ing The Dee. He said the only use made of
them waa to check up the advertisements
Inserted by advertisers , and no attempt wrs
ever made to read the editorial or local 1
pages on account of the Immense number
of .papers necessarily handled , thus contra
dicting the testimony for the plaintiff that
the alleged llbclous article had been read
by all of Its eastern advertisers and wcu
the cause of a falling oft In the amount of
advertising.
George Tzschuck , trecsurer of The Dee
Publishing company , testified that the adver
tising business of The Dee and TV'orld-Herald
had fallen off very materially during tbo
first nine months of the current year , as
compared with the same period last year.
This was due to some extent to the fact that
some ofthe largest advertisers In the city
had gone out of business and was also
caused by the general depression In buslncra ,
which caused merchants to curtail their ex
penses.
Alfred Mlllard , cashier of the Commercial
National bank ; Thomas Kllpatrlck , dealer
In dry goods , and Robert S. Wllcox. man
ager for Drowning. King & Co. , all testified
that the general volume of business in
Omaha and vicinity waa less during the
current year than It had been during the
year 1S93. They also testified that the gen
eral volume of the advertising business was
lees this year than last , ov.-ing to the gen
eral depression.

"Ftro' Fire ! FlrtrjFlro ! "
A dozen or more rtwams resounded
through the rcsldencp of , , Mrs. Parlih , 1905
Farnam street , a coupj of days ago. They
'
attracted the attention o't Mrs , Parish and
she rushed Into the tWH' from which thuy
Issued. There was 'tflt'nty of fire there ,
but It wan not of startllpg proportions.
The paper on the waU.cbout the chimney
hole had become loosened from the heat
which had Issued from rthb stovepipe. One
pleco of this had fallen upon the pipe an
had become Ignited. U dropped to th
floor and was threaVenlng to net fire I
the carpet and possibly the woodwork. I
attention had not boon called to the blaz
In Its Inelplency the entire flat might hav
been destroyed. As It was , the fire was a
small that Mrs. Parish was able to extlnguls
It with a couple of buckets of water.
So far stated the Incident Is not very re
markable. It would be possible for th
paper to catch on flro and It would been
tlrely within the range of probabilities tha
some ono should be on hand to notice I
and call somebody else to extinguish th
blaze. The very remarkable part of the cas
however. Is the fact that the alarm wa
given by a parrot.
The parrot In question Is a handsom
South African producH Is the pet of th
house and Is looked upon as almost human
It can say all kinds of things and say then
very appropriately. It Is needless to say
that the occupants of the house now bellev
that this parrot has a whole lot more sens
than some people.
The bird waa all alone In the room where
the blaze started. It apparently noticed the
flames and the smoke and was greatly ex
cited thereat. When Mrs. Parish was callei
to the room the parrot was much worked up
oyer the matter. It was flying about , tear
Ing Its feathers and screaming "fire ! " with
all Its might. Mrs. Parish at the time was
out In the woodshed. She heard the par
rot's screams and entered the house t (
Investigate. She had no Idea that the bin
was giving an alarm , but believed tha
somebody was teasing It. She knew tha
she had left no one In the house , and , thcre-
foer she came In to see about It. She foum
the fire.
The parrot's realdcnco Is nlso the abldlni
place of Assistant Fire Chief Saulter am
Spud Farlsh. Chief Redell'a clerk. The
assistant chief has an alarm gong In his
room to notify him of alarms. The two
have taugh * . the bird to yell flro whenever
the alarm sounds. The question that Is now
agitating the acquaintances of the'parrot Is
Hi la : Did the parrot yell "firo" because It
was the first word that It could dig out of
Its memory , or did It have brains enough
to get onto the true situation ? The ac
quaintances arc divided.
"It has the brains to do It , " said Assist
ant Chief Sailer , and Farlsh says "amen1
to that.

Dan Marouey Is charged with breaking
three things Sunday afternoon , the peace
9 a promise and Ed Hill's head. Th latter
was the most damaged. , .When the owner
was In police court yesterday morning II
was swathed In bandages.
Hill lives at Thirteenth and Howard
streets. Among his acquaintances he num
bers Maroney and ope Pete Ward. The
couple met Hill on Saturday. November 14
at 10 o'ylock at Thirteenth and Harney
streets , while he was going homo frorr
- work. They demanded his money. Hit !
. could not comply with the request because
he did not have the coin. The two Alleged
highwaymen nevertheless went through hU
pockets. Hill says , and took a pair of gloves
and some minor articles. Then they de
, parted.
Hill threatened to prosecute them , but
he says that Maronejr'a motlicr Induced him
| not to do so. She promised him that the
stolen gocdd or their value would be re
turned to him last Saturday night. AH
this promise was not kept. Hill determined
to go to the Maroney residence at Kl.qhth
and Casa streets. At Tenth aud Davenport
he met young Maroney , and the latter In
duced him to accompany him to several sa
loons. They rounded up finally at Ninth
and Douglas streets. Hill says that Ma-
roney promised to give him the value of
the gloves and other articles , but be al
leges that Instead of doing that , Maroney
j picked up a billiard cue and struck him a
| blow on tbe head. He alleges also that
[ Maroney struck him a half dozen blows
with his fists afterward.
The recital of Hill's troubles resulted In
the filing of complaints against both Ma
roney and Ward. The former was charged
with assault with Intent to do great bodily
Injury , and the latter with larceny from
the person.

Regarding "SalesN'ovomtwr
The remarkable success of our Saturday Purse-Open
ing Sale has induced us to hold a Monday Sale and a
Tuesday Sale also a Wednesday , Thursday and Fri
day Sale in fact , hereafter we will have an evcry-day-
in the "Sale " One
wcek-and-wcclx-in-the-year , thing
that bothers us is the names that we shall give these
"Sales. " So many people in Omaha have been edu
cated up to distinguished names , for their "Sales"wo
arc afraid it will be hard work to please them in this
respect , and we must ask the forbearance of the public
if our ad man shouldn't meet their requirements in fur
nishing fastidious titles for these "Sales. " We also
ask to be excused if our building is not covered with
signs announcing these "Sales. " Furthermore , we
must apologize for not using more than our usual
space in the papers to tell you about these "Sales , "
and again , you mustn't feel slighted if the boy neglects
to litter your front porch with dodgers reminding you
of these ' 'Sales. " With these few exceptions we hope
to make an "overwhelming success" erf 'The Nebraska's
every-day sales , How about the values , did you say ?
Oh ! well , the values will be the same as usm' ' . Value !
are the last thing to think about in getting up a "Sale , '
You remember the jeweler who bought
watches at $ .1.00 aud sold them nt J2.73. People
ple woruKrtd wlure the profit c.iiuo from
that transaction. Hut after they hud
liouttlit one of those watches they under
stood better. Ho madi1 his money repairing
tltPtn.
There Is a good deal of a furniture moral
In tills story. If you want furniture that
will last a lifetime , that will minister dully
to n hundred conveniences , that will lie a
continual pleasure nnd Joy , don't expect to
buy It nt less than It * i-ost. '
