The Second Nebraska regiment of vol
unteers did not airlvo hero yesterday , owing
to the slow tlmo made by the Missouri Pa
cific railroad with the- four special trains
between St. Louis and Omaha. It Is ex
pected that the soldiers will arrive here be
tween 4.30 and C o'clock thin morning. The
trains will be stopped at the crossing of the
Missouri Pacltlc Hacks and North Thirtieth
street , near lloyd street , to let the soldiers
off. They will march from there to Fort
Omaha.
Telegraphic advices to Assistant General
Trelght and Passenger Agent Phllllppl from
Traveling Passenger Agent llarncs , who ac
companied the troops , were received hero
yesterday afternoon from Kansas City ,
where a stop was made for dinner and a
Bhort rest. These telegrams were 'to the
effect that the first section , consisting of
seventeen freight cars and ono coach , would
leave Kansas City at 5:15 : p. in. The second
end section , made up of twelve coaches and
ono sleeping car , left Kansas City at 5. in
I . in. The third section , composed of four
teen coaches and ono sleeper , got away from
Kansas City nt 0.1.1 p. m. The fouith sec
tion , carrying ten coaches and five bleepers ,
left Kansas City at C. 15 p. m. The fourth
or last section Is the ono that carries the
Elck soldlerj.
I.OUK Itlilt- from SI. l.oulN.
Should the troops all reach Omaha by
6 o'cfock this morning Just thirty-two
hours will have been consumed In transporting - | ! !
porting them from St. Louis to Omaha. The >
passenger trains cover the distance between i
the two cities In sixteen hours and forty- ,
five minute's. Had the soldier trains been j i '
given as good service they would ha\o
leached Omaha yesterday afternoon about |
4 o'clock. In explanation of the long tlmo
required to move the troops from St. Louis
to Omaha It Is said the army officials heio
icqucste'd the Missouri Pacllle not to bring
the soldiers here before daybreak this
morning If they could not get them before
dark last night , as it would bo diillcult to
unload the trains at night.
All day long yesterday numerous
anxious parents , sisters and brothers of
the soldiers In the Second regiment be-
polgcd the newspaper and railway olficc *
for Information concerning the arriving
tlmo of the soldier trains. Assistant Gen
eral Freight and Passenger Agent Phllllppl
of the Missouri Pacific was indefatigable
In his efforts to obtain definite Informa
tion to gt\o out to the public , but could
bccuro scarcely any news of the trains
until late In the afternoon , owing to the
Indifference of the officials at Kansas City
and St. Louis. The announcement In the
afternoon papers that the troops would not i
arrive here until this morning waa received i
with great surprise , as the morning papers
I
had printed telegrams showing thnt the
troops had left St. Louis at 10 o'ctark on I
Thursday night and the people could not
understand why It should toke n day and
a third to run trains from St. Loula to
Omaha. I I
Arrangements are ( ait be'ng ' completed
for tht ) banquet to bo given the soldlcns of i
the returning Second at Fort Omaha to- ! j
day. Kvorybody Is responding gener
ously to tlio call made by the > \oiuon for I I

Special Committee Unable to Decide on a

The special committee of the Board of
Education which was clvcn the task of
deciding the question of presenting to the
piopla at the coming fall election a proposi
tion to vote bonds for the erection of a new-
High school building or buildings , after a
lengthy discussion , has determined to bring
up the matter before the next board meet
ing without recommendation , but without
letting It leave Its hands.
The committee split'on two propositions.
One provides for the erection of two bu'ld-
lugs , ono In the north end and the other
in the south part of the city. The other
plan contemplates the erection on the
present High school plot of a wing of an
entirely new building , which In course of
time will be completely erected. The- two
plans l.a\o stiong adherents In the com
mittee , and after talking the matter over
It was decided to present both to the board
In order that the general sentiment might bo
gained.
The committee , however , Is unanimous on
ono point that additional High school facil
ities are needed. It Is estimated that this
year there will bo an enrollment of be
tween 1,300 and 1,400 pupils In the school.
If the rate of Increase of past years con
tinues the present hchool will be entirely
Inadequate to accommodate the attendance
one year from now. The tad hygienic con
ditions of the present building furnish an
other argument for the early erection of an
other structure.
Superintendent of School Pearso Is ono of
the advocates of the two high schools plans.
One of his rhlcf arguments In favor of It Is
that a couple of the schools will result In
a bigger high school attendance. Ho In
sists that there are many available high
school scholar's In the moro distant north
ern and southern portions of the city who
do not take the course because of the dis
tance they have to go to attend school.
The superintendent shows this In a prac
tical manner. He has a plat of the city ,
on which pins show the residences of the
pupils at present attending the High school.
Practically the entire attendance comes
from that portion of the city that Is In com
paratively close proximity to tbo building ,
while the northern and southern edges of
the city are poorly repiesented.
Wlie'll .TIliMil OIICIIN ,
The fall term of school commences on Sep
tember 10. This fact docs not seem to bo
generally known , for inquiries are received
dally at the school board rooms At a recent
meotlng of the board it was decided to post
pone the opening of the schools two weeks
because It is believed that the exposition will
materially Intcrforo with the attendance and
the work.
The High school term commences on the
same date , but the building will bo open on
September 13. From that date until Septem
ber 10 Principal Levlston will bo In his office
in order to allow pupils to consult him re
garding courses and also to hold examina
tions of such pupils as have taken courses
In summer schools in order to secure admis
sion to the High school courses this fall.

The addition was made possible by the ap
propriation by the council of $1,000 for btrect
sweeping. This sum will keep the gangs
at work for about three weeks , when they
will again have to bo laid off or mdre money
will have to bo appropriated.
City Engineer Rosewater estimates that
somewhere between $1,000 and $ 'J.OOO will bo
needed to clear the city of the crop of weeds
that are nourishing everywhere along the
sidewalks. Ho considers this a conservative
estimate , for In past jcars the council has
appropriated between $2,000 and $3,000 for
this work each year , whereas this year but.
$100 has so far been spent In the work.
Miss Ogden , who has been teacher In
French In the High school , has resigned her
position In order to pursue studies In Paris.
This resignation leaves the modern language
department of the High school rather
depleted , for nt the last meeting of the
board Miss Walker , teacher of French and
German , also resigned. There area host
of applicants for the twn vacancies , but the
High school committee has decided upon no
ono to fill them > ct , although a meotlng
has been held to consider the matter.

CLEVELAND , Sept. 2. In an interview
today Manager Young of the M. A. Ilanna
Coal company Is quoted as saying :
"In the early part of next year wo will
have one of the greatest coal strikes this
country has ever seen. All Indications arc
that the strike will last many months. The
miners stand at all times ready to fight
against a reduction of wages. When the
Chicago contract expires , or possibly be
fore that time , they will bo obliged to ac
cept a reduction of 15 or 1C cents per ton or
fight. I think they will light , and will fight
harder than they over have before.
"Tho West Virginia minors mo working
cheaper than ever before. All efforts of
the miners to organize them have been In
vain. There Is no hope that-they will bo
brought Into line. "
When you call for DcWItt's Witch Hazel
Salve , the great pile curedon't accept any
thing else. Don't be talked Into accepting a
substitute , for piles , for tores , for burns.

Trial la London ,
LONDON , Sept. 2. J. W. Jago , chief offi
cer of the White Star line steamer Itrltannlc ,
who was arrested on board the Cunard line
steamer Lucanla on Its arrhal at Queens-
town on August 12 , charged with being con
cerned in thn robbery of transatlantic
j malls , and John Kynaston , third officer of
i the Hrltannle , who Is charged w 1th the theft
j from the malls of bonds , coupons , diamonds ,
] ( etc. , who arrived In custody at Queenstown
i on board the Germanic from Now York on
Wednesday last , were brought up for exam
ination at thu How street police court today.
Among the letters ttolon , It was said in
court , was one containing forty United
! j States bond coupons and another containing
$1,500 In gieenbacks.
Counsel for the British postolHce made a
statement saying Jago was undoubtedly thu
i prime mover In the robbeiies. He explained
I j that It was arranged that Kynaston should
I ' receive the mail bags at Queenstown and
place certain of the sacks fiom London so
J ! that they might be easily reached. The same
, night Kynaston visited the mall room and
I brought the mall bags to Jago's cabin. On
the following night ho repeaU'd this per
formance , but both the bags were found to
contain matter which was useless to the
prisoners. On the third night , however , a
registered letter bag was secured. Two dayi
before the arrival of the nrltannlo at New
York Jago gave Kynaston twenty stolen
coupons to cash , but Kvnaston was arrested
as a result of the suspicions of the cashier of
the bank at which he preented thorn and
Jago lied after endeavoring to dispose of
1 quantities of the stolen property by posting
It to relatives and frlendu.
Counsel added that most of the above
! facts were derived from a eonfesslon made
by Kynaston.
After the presentation of evidence In sup
port of the statements made by the counsel
for the postolllce. Including Steward Gal-
I way's description of the smuggling opera
I tions and mall robberies , Jago and the
other prisoners were remanded.
