The Nebraska Kxposltlon commission held
a Rpcclal meeting last night , mainly to take
up the qucntlon of a etata building. All the
members of the commission were present. I
The architects employed by the hoard sub- |

jstructuro slightly larger than the first buildIng - j
Ing , dcslgnml along the llius of an order of
nrchltcniurn more In hirmony with the do-
ilgn of the main exposition htillJIngs. The
plan Ihbwcd a building 150x90 Rot , two
stories In height , with a clear Htory. The
building was rectangular In form and waj
designed along the Corinthian order.
The adoption of the now plin was urged
by Architect McDonald , who said the modi-
fled plan was more satisfactory to the super
vising archlttctH and would coat slightly less
than the first building ,
Thn board discus cd the plans at length
nnd decided that no change should bo made.
In reply to direct question * both the archi
tects and Superintendent Illakc slid the build
ing as originally designed could be built for
less than J1G.OOO , Superintendent Illakc stak
ing his rcpu'atlon on the statement that It
\\odlil not cost over $1-1,000.
The superintendent was directed to adver
tise for bids for supplying all imtcrl.il which
will bo required In the construction of the
building , bid1 tc be submitted at the meeting

The air lift has been connected with the
artesian well on the exposition grounds and
last night the machinery wis stalled up to
test the working of the apparatus. The
mechanism ronslsts of an air compressor ,
which Is operated by a stationary engine ,
the air making Its escape from the compressor
ser under very heavy pressure by way of an
Iron pipe about two Inches In d'ameter. This
pipe Is let down Inside the Iron tubing which
lines the well from top to bottom. In Mon
day's experiment tlm nlr pipe was. lowered
to a deuth of about ICO feet.
When the nlr was turned on the water In
the well shot up Into the air a distance ot
several feet and those conducting the ex
periment said the ( low was 130 gallons per
inlmito , being about four times as much ab
the fiow without the air lift. The water
was qullo muddy , the fotce ot the air seem
ing to have looFcned the sediment on the
inside of the pipe. It Is thought that > jy
extending the air pipe furthci down the well
a flow of about 200 gallons per minute may
bo secured. These experiments will bo con
tinued until the maximum amount of flow
Is ascei tallied.
For the present the air compretsoi and
the onglno which operates It are placed
alongbtdc the well. Those having charge of
.tho expeilment were very well satisfied
with the result yesterday

The lonn expected and previously rumored
break In freight rates on coal from Chicago
to Omaha and other points on the Missouri
river eventuated yesterday. The Chicago
cage , Hock Island & Pacific railway WHS the I
first railroad to make the cut and to announce - !
nounco It In this city , the rate being tin- j
ceremoniously chopped down from $3 to ? 2 '
a ton. Coal merchants generally are ot the j
opinion that this reduction by the Hock Is
land will result In a corresponding reduction 1
of | t a. toll In the prices to the consumer. |
A telegram from J. M. Johnson , freight '
tralllo manager of the Hock Island system , '
announces that the cut from $3 to ? 2 per ton
will be effective on Monday , September 20
The reduction will apply on all shipments
ot co.il from Chicago to Missouri river points >
The usual dlftcrentl.il from Mississippi river I |
points will prevail. J i
Traffic circles were thrown Into a high
stoto of excitement yesterday morning
when the fact that the Rock Island was
quoting the reduced rate became known , It
Is altogether probable that the other lines
from Chicago to Omaha will put In the same
rate , but up until a late houi In the afternoon - { |
noon none of the other lines had received
authority from Chicago to announce the $2
,
rate A. n. Smith , assistant general freight
ugcnt of the 1) . ft M , , was told of the reduc
tion at noon by a Bee reporter. Ho said ho
had not heard of the cut and was not pre-
poicd to say whether or not the Uurllng-
ton would make the same reduction. Fred
A. Nash , general western agent of the Milj j '
watikcc , stated that alt signs pointed toward
a reduction In the coal rates , but that the
Milwaukee had yet made no announcement
of that reduction.
UVfD MAY GO LOWER.
It Is rumored on the slioct thit a high
freight trafllc official of the Chicago &
Northwestern not Ions ago declared that If
the Rock Island or any other Omahi-Chi-
cage line slashed the coal rate down to ? 2 ,
the Northwestern would do some cutting
on Its own account and announce a $1 rate
on all real shipped from Chicago to Missouri
tlvcr points Should the Northwestern now
pursue such a policy , the Rock Island hav
ing taken the stand It has , threatened to for
some time. Omaha consumers of coal would
secure their coal $2 cheaper than heretofore ,
or at the rate of $7 CO a ton. Irsrcad of
$9 GO , the present rate. The Northwestern
has made no announcement of what It will
do In the controversy. A prominent railroad
man of another line said "I seriously
doubt If the Northwestern will go below the
Rock Islands cut and whittle off another
dollar from the coal rates The Northwestern
tried that policy just three years ago , and
It found that It didn't pay. "
I ) T Mount a pioininont coal dealer , said-
"Now tint th 6 Rock Island has reduced the
freight rate on coal from Chicago to Omaha
from S3 to $2 the rate-i to the connnner will
probably bo lowered about $1 I cannot state
e\actlv how much of a reduction there will
be as I have just heard of the cut. The
iresent rate on coal Is $9 50 , and the pioba-
bllttlcs nio that the new icttc will be about
$8 no "
The ? 3 rate on coal per ton fiom Chicago
to Missouri river paints has been In elTtd
Tor nine months During the last month
'here have been frequent reports that the
Omalia-Chlcago lines had decided to reduce
the freight rate on coal by chopping off $1.
Within the last week these tumors have be
come more accentuated , and there have been
several apparently well grounded repoits
that before the first ten days of September
had passed by it uo.ild be found that the
Rock Island had started the cutting by lop-
.i\ns \ off $1. It l"is been difficult to gather
any accuiatc Information on the subject un
til yesterd.iy the Rock Island received
word from headquarters In Chicago to an
nounce the $2 rate Tiaflle officials have
honed that the $3 Kite would he maintained ,
and many of them laughed at the icports of
n cut no longer ago than Monday Should
the Northwestern follow up the Rock Island's
lead and whittle oft another dollar from the
coal rates there may bo some laughing of
another character.

charged with the Investigation of several
matters connected with the Pacific roads ,
among them being the condition of the blnk-
Ing fund held In the treasury ; on account of
the Union Pacific road and the alleged
fiauclulent patenting of lands to this com
pany This Is under a icbolutlon Introduced
by Senator Pettlgrew , which was passed by
the senate at its last session. The other
members of the subcommittee arc Senator
Harris of Kansas and Senator Stewart of

and called upon Senator Forakcr this even-
Ing. Senator Harris is expected to arrive
tomorrow. The meeting may ho wholly In

tlio attorney general regarding the sale of

Include the government's Interest , whlc.li
also means the sinking fund , and If the sub
committee makes any Investigation of the
sinking fund It mutt bo before the sale takes
place. It Is the understanding of the sub
committee that the bale will take place
within thirty days after the decree Is cn-

for the subcommittee to act at once If any
action was to bo taken. lie did not know
whether the committee could do anything In

CHICAGO , Sept 7. Hard coal rates from
Chicago to the Missouri river took a tumble
today. The reduction amounts to 33 % pur
cent. For the last twelve mouths the rate
has been $3 a ton. On and after September
20 the tariff will bo ? 2 a ton , The Alton pre
cipitated the trouble by notifying Clmliirun

CROOKS CO.VTIMIS TO \ \ O1IK.
They Arc Pnr Too Smooth for the
Local ( lllldern of ( he I.BV\ .
All doubts agito the existence In this city
at the present time of n large gang of
crooks made up'ot burglars and highway
men principally , has been most effectually
dispelled by the number of Jobs of n crimi
nal character which have been committed
during the post tow nights.
The police themselves arc now working
on the theory that the gang which Is operat
ing Is ot considerable size. U was at first
supposed that the Jobs were all being done
by two or three men who turned their
hand to holdups or burglaries , as oppor- ,
Utility offered These men were supposed to
hive worked In this city for some months
und were Imagined to have cleverness
enough to keep out of the fingers ot the
police. Suspicious characters In considerable
numbers have been arrested during the time
thtb criminal work bas been done In the
nope that the night men might accidentally
be captured , but no convictions have been
secured. The men have been released and
the police have continued their abortive at
tempts to capture parties who were pre
sumed to bo doing the work. '
Monday the authorities thought that they
had fit ally gotten hold ot the right men
when Jerry Collins and Pat Itallcy were ar
rested with smc ot the clothing stolen out
of the store-room of Voorhccs , Miller & Co.
In their possession , and when the greater
Dortlon of the lemalnder was recovered on
Infoiinatlon divulged bv Colllno. It was be
lieved not only that these prisoners had had
a hand In that burglary , but were icsponsl-
blo for the holdups which occurred Saturday
night ou Lcavonworth street. The police
rested In the belief that with these men be
hind the bars the scries of holdups , hurgiar-
les and other crimes would finally end , but at
11 o'clock that night another man was held
up , this time near the co tier of Twenty-
fifth and Iotge ! streets. Olllccrs wcte sent
out no soon n the repoit was received and
the entire section ot the icsldencc portion In
the vicinity was scoured without result. The
'highwaymen succeeded effectually In making
their escape. I
The conclusion that Is forced upon the '
police Is that there are other ci ( initials In I
the city besides those who arc In Jail , |
end that they are doing their shaio of the
criminal work U Is Known that there are
now among the res'donts ot Omaha about
a half dozen more cx-convlsts They have
been anestcd from time to time , but as no
felonious charge , would bo pioven against
them , they were , allowed to remain la the
city. H Is the Intention now , however , to
drlvo them from the city as soon as they can
bo picked up '

"Tlio result ot my obsenatlon In the cast
Is that Ncbinska Is tlio beat advertised spot
In the world , " snld CoiiKTossman David 11 ,
Morccr to a Ueo reporter > estcrdl y afternoon.
The hntd working representative ot this
district has just returned from the east , an I
his judgment Is founded on observation In
Philadelphia , Now York , Baltimore , Wash
ington , IloHon and other Important cente s.
Congressman Mercer Is hero with his
family , and "III remain until congress
opens Its next session. In nn Interview ho
said"The exposition management Is to bo
congratulated on tlio effective manner In
which the eastern press Is advertising the
exposition. All the Important papers In the
cast arc printing elaborate articles Il
lustrated by line cuts of the proposed build
ings. The publication of these coming right
on the heels of the splendid stories of the
bountiful crops hero has created an
enthusiasm In the cast for Omaha and Ne
braska that Indlcntcs an enormous attend
ance at the exposition next year. Many
easterners will come out hero with a \lc\ >
to making Investment ! ) The first story pub
lished In the east to the effect that Ne
braska had paid off $28,000,000 of mortgages
was looked upon ns an Idle minor. Wo were
nil sought out to corroborate this statement ,
and when we did so , the enthusiasm of
casterntrs for Nebraska knew no bounds.
KASTKRN CAPITAL , COMING.
"It Is my opinion that this state Is now In
bettor condition tLnn it has been for twenty
jcais. The fact that Nebraska has become
a wheat state , as well as holding Its place
us the great corn-producing state , Is also
responsible for the high opinion now enter
tained In the east Capltnl In the cast haa
been Ijlng Idle for some time , wa.ting for
good Investments These Investments will
bo carefull > made , and anything like wateri-fl
stocks will bo carofull ) avoided I think
most of the easterners have come to the
conclusion that realty forms the bcbt Invest
ment , and the crops hero this year will go
a long way toward bilnglng eastern capital
here
"I lecentlv had a conversation with F H
Puavcv. the leprescntatlvo of the exposition
In Minnesota He says that thcic H no doubt
but that an appioprlatlon might have been
secured from that state before the adjourn
ment of the legislative there If as much had
been known concerning the exposition as Is
known He said , however , that county np-
iirop lattons and exhibits of Minnesota prod
ucts by syndicates would largely innKo up
for the lack of a state appioprlatlon. They
will do what the btite failed to do. "
"The tailff legislation has had Us effect
In the cast already The factories that have
been closed are starting up , and those ( hat
have brim running on half time are now run
ning on full tlmr The condition of the
ciops abioid and the splendid crops here
makes It sure that the balance ot trade will
this year be In favor of the United States
"Pros dent McKlnley Is every wheie hailed
as the certain advance agent of prosperity
The republican party is today strongoi than
It has been for years Concerning political
matters In Nebraska , I should say that all
signs point toward a very quiet campaign
this fall The farmers will bo too busy to
give much attention to politics. Uut they
realize that Kometh'ng ' good has happened
and tUey will quietly vote the republican
ticket. I feel quite certain 'of a republican
victory In Nebraska this fall. "

for the Price of the Suit.
We1 mean that this is about the ratio of what we save
you. If you don't remember what you have been pay-
ingjthe other dealers , investigate and then the saving
will be very evident. Our suits for the boys are every
thing they should be. Durable cloths , stitched twice ,
tapqd seams , leatherine linings , handsome plaids , solid
coldrs , in fact , most everything that you or the boy can
think of in fashionable goods without fashionable prices.
Again , don't you know it is hard to tell how a suit will
wear by looking at it ? You ought to know how it is
made , where it comes from. Perhaps we can tell you a
thing or two about boys' suits. We back ours up with
our guarantee of "Your money back if you want it , "
consequently they must be just as we tell you they are.
The prices are as low as $ J.J5 all sizes.
