( > K \ WOMEN READY TO ORGANIZE
Nebraska to Take the Lead in the Noble
Work of Belief ,
AID ASSOCIATION IDEA TAKES HOLD
Movement to lie n Gcnernl One ,
* la Which All the Women
of the Stnte Mny TnUe
Part.
Tbe Idea tbat Nebraska shall be the first
t te to perfect an organization for tbe
work ot relief by the women In tbe Im
pending war with Spain baa taken a firm
hold on the women of Omaha and of older
points In the state. The movement to thor
oughly and effectively organize the work
has advanced beyond the experimental aUge
nd It is probable that meetings will be
called for thl purpose In every city end
town 1'n tbe state early next week.
The movement Is a general one. It la not
confined to Uie Women's Relief corps nor to
tbe Ladle * of the Grand Army of the Re
public. Those bavkig the work In charge
realize that tbe scope of tbe work U BO broad
that women from all claues and without
reference to thttt eoanectlo * wltfc aay. *
the associations auxiliary to the Grand Army ,
ot the Republic , shall participate In the
work. Mrs. George D. Eddy , president ot
Grant post of the Woman's Relief corps ,
was sent for by Major T. S. Clarkson yester
day morning , and after conferring with him
and General Charles F. JIanderson It was de
cided to Issue a rail for a meeting next
week , the call to be EO general cs to In
clude all women desirous of Joining In the
work. |
It Is now planned to hold the meeting ot
Omaha women In the rooms ot tbe Com
mercial club on Wednesday afternoon ot
next week. General Charles P. Manderson ,
Edward Rose water and Major T. S. Clarkson
have promised to address the meeting. It
li understood that meetings with tbo object
of forming organizations to take charge of
the relief work will also be called in Lin
coln , Hastings , Beatrice , Grand Island ,
Kearney , Nebraska'City and other points
wilt be held next week , end be
fore the - end" of Ihe week the
organization of Nebraska women for relief
work will be In full swing. General Mauder-
son pointed oat this morning that the work
of organization was the only work tbat could
be dine at present , but urged tbat this work
be accomplished at once , in order that the
real work of relief might be undertaken by
organized forces ot women a * soon as there
should be need for the same.
SENTIMENT OP OMAHA WOMEN.
Some expressions ot ODJplon from Omaha
women are here given :
OMAHA , April 28. To the Editor ot Tbe
Bee : General Manderson's idea of a wo
men's relief association i * such grand
one that I hope you will at once take steps
towards organization , so that when the faelp
U needed , we ca girt It without deter. I
, am sure Omaha has any number of patriotic
> women w ho w 111 come forward at once. I
know , ot course , nothing ot the work tbat
would have to be done , but you can count
on me as one ot the workers. I write
only to urge you to start the movement , as
I know no one wfao can so well undertake
it. Tours sincerely ,
RACHEL A. BERRY.
OMAHA , April 28 To the Editor of The
Bee : In reply to General Manderson's sug
gestion tbat Nebraska should bo first to or
ganize a relief corps : * At a'regular meeting
of George Crook post WotP&n'a Relief corps

lutions were Introducedby Mrs. A.-B.-Ask-
wlth and adopted by a unanimous vote :
Resolved , That we. the officers and mem
bers of G orpt ( Crook Woman * Relief corps

OLD SOLDIERS WILLING - TOAID. .
Endorse the Movement nnd Saggest
Pinna for the Orv nl tlon.
Local member * of the old soldiers' or
ganizations unite in a unanimous endorse
ment ot the suggestion ot General Mander-
eoa that women's relief corps should bo
organized for purposes nml ir-to those wbtch
were served by the vartyu organizations of
women that contributedso ! nuch to the com
fort and health of to t oops during tbe
civil war. There is general disposition ,
however , on the partjf th s veterana , to re
gard the Women's Relief corps that now
forms auxiliaries to tbejai loua Grand Army
posts as the natural { nd fi ting beginning of
the enterprise. Tbey contend tbat these
women are fully organized and ready to
undertake the work yltho it delay , while it
would require some time td form an entirely
new organization. Th f way that la any
case the women who now , belong to the re
lief corps would bo'thexwee who would
naturally take the ! j lead In tbo
formation of a ne.w organization
and that consequently ) | t would be an
unnecessary waste of time to attempt It.
Out of a large number of , the most prominent
representative * of the old soldier element
who were asked to express themselves yes
terday there waa no H s n lon of opinion
on this point Tbey Were enthusiastically
in favor of General BfdnBeraon's plan and
united In approving the present relief corps
as the means best adapiet ) to bring results.
Among tbo expression * Were these :
Major R. S. Wllcox U to a capital Idea.
We are sure to need something of tbe sort
sooner or later and theorganization will
undoubtedly be perfected M soon u things
shape themselves ! . A believe tint the pres
ent Women'a Relief corps would be a good
nucleus for , the organization suggested by
General Manderson , And I know that tbe
women would enter Into the-idea witti en-
thuilosm. I bave talked , with quite a num
ber of them and they are ready to do any
thing in their power to push tbe enter
prise along. Mtar. / tfesm are ready to
go to the front any time their eerUces are
needed and with the extensive organization
that they already possess It would not re-
qutro much time to make all necessary
preparations. >
Dr. S. K. Spaldlng I am heartily In favor
of General Mandereon's suggestion , but I do
not think It would bo neccrcary to form a
new organization. The Women's Relief corps
I now Includes more members than the Grand
'Army of tbo Republic. It baa a thorough
| organization in every northern state and Is
. well prepared to go ahead on the lines sug-
I gested. I do not think that tbe fact that
. tbe bulk ot its membership Is In the north
! would cut any figure In this crisis. Wo have
. a large number of women in our local or-
j ganlzatlons who belonged to southern fatn-
I illes during the war , and I believe that the
, membership could be extended through the
, south without giving rise to a particle of
sectional feeling.
i Charles E. Burmelster I bave been too
j busy keeping Informed on tbe war news to
give much thought to the idea of formIng -
Ing a Women's Relief corps. It may be
neccroary , however , and would undoubtedly
be a good thing , although It may be a little
early In the fight to begin Its organization.
It such 'an organization Is needed tbe pres
ent corps certainly has tbe advantage of n
existing organization and : Its fleld could be
very 'easily extended to cover all tbat wad
contemplated by General Manderaon'a sug
gestion.
Gustavo Anderson I have not thought
much of the Idea because it has been an
nounced that tbe military authorities are dis
posed to discountenance it , In any case ,
there U no reason why a new organization
should be formed M the present Women's
Relief corps Is well organized and fully
qualified to act In the matter.
Major Prink E. Moorca I fully concur
with the suggestion. No one but a soldier
knows bow much suffering was alleviated
by the wonun of this country In the last
war , and I know that they are ready and
willing to perform the saino loyal uervlcc
In this emergency.
John It. Butler I believe tbat every old
eoldler will endorse the suggestion.
W. S. Askwith , in speaking of the matter
of women going south as nurses , said that In
his judgment he considered U a grand thing.
"Women have always been the best of
nurses and there is no reason why they
should not go to the front at this time. By
all means let the women go and care for tbe
sick and wounded boys.
Colonel llarrlas , in discussing the advis
ability of women going to Cuba in the ca
pacity of nurses , said : "I am opposed to
any such plan. Our American women could
not stand tbe tropical climate. They would
become sick and die. Let the men go , but
let tbe women stay at home. "
KASTACits ix COME ; TO THIIL.
Case of the Pother nml Son Set for
llenrlncr Knrlr.
The case ot tbe State against Joseph and
Louis Kastner is set for trial in tbe crim

Ilr > mm Siien for llnnk Slock. '
Elmer E. Bryson has brought suit against
S. B. Howard , receiver ot tbe Exchange
bank ot Atkinson , Joseph S. Hartley and tbo
Packers' National bank of South "jnaha.
He seeks to recover on 500 shares
of stock of tbe South Omaha bank , al
leging that the stock was Issued to Hartley ,

Grocer * \Vnnt Unuiaiceii. '
John Cerney & Son have sued Paxton 41
Gallagher In an action to recover the sum ot
J4.050 , alleged damages. The plaintiffs -
tiffs aver that they were operating
a store at Dodge , Neb , end that
there was a chattel mortgage given
to secure a debt that they owed the de *
fendants. They allege that this mortgage
was foreclosed and the goods taken and sold.
They say they were in good financial cir
cumstances at the time of tbe foreclosure. ,
FlrrCnie for Trial. '
The first case for trial at the May term ot
the district court , which convenes next Mon
day morning , will be that of the State against
Joe Hoffman. M. White and the Conways.
two brothers. The defendants are charged
with the malicious destruction ot property ,
the particular offense being that they were
In a wine room of a South Omaha so loon and
that while there they bored through a parti
tion Into a barrel of liquor , causing tbe con *
tents ot the barrel to run out and be wasted.
