The end of the rato.ar on packing-house
products to the southeast and the subse
quent decision to restore rates to their nor
mal baals and , In some Instances , advancing
them tllghtly. It taken as an Indication by
freight officials of a general advance by
western lines. This will be In harmony with
tha action of nil eastern lines which have
begun In earnest to get their share of general -
oral prosperity. Many advances have nl-
ready been made and the plan is to Inaugu
rate n general advance on all classes ot
trade.
Thla movement has been Instituted by the ,
eastern lines for the reason , perhaps , that I
the western roads were not In a position to ,
take such a stand a8 long a * the rate situa
tion was In such nn unsettled condition ,
brought about by the war over packing
house rates.
On November 9 freight officials of
nil lines running southeast from Chicago
cage will meet "to abrogate or advance
commodity rates. " This means that at the
meeting arrangements It would be In violation
lation of the letter of the anti-trust law to
make on. agreement to advance rates will
bo made for individual action by each rail
road to increase Its ratta from 10 to 30 per
cent on the bulk of the tonnage carried by
It In discussing thla proposition an eastern
Irelght representative says :
"Tho people generally are more able today
to pay ratea EO per cent higher than the
present rates than they were to pay these
rates two or three years ago. No objection
to the advance In rates Is made by those
who ehlp meet the Iron and grain men.
They appreciate the fact that when times
were hard the railroads cut down freight
rates In many cases to the mere cost of
transportation. If this had not been done
many ot the largest manufacturing plants
In the country would have had to shut down.
The principal reason why the railroads are
forced to raise their rates now is that nearly
everything they have to buy has Increased
in price. Steel rails cost nearly twice as
much as they did eighteen months ago and
the price ot lumber has taken a big advance.
Should there be a big drop In the volume ot
traffic , which Is and has been phenomenally
large , a majority ot the railroads could not
pay fixed charges , much leas dividends , It
the present rates should be maintained.
The public need not fear that freight rates
will ever become exorbitant. The natural
competition of railroads will prevent that. "
Omaha freight officials assert that the
precedent established by the eastern lines
will undoubtedly be followed by the western
roads. As a forerunner the rates on apples ,
potatoes and vegetables to Texas points will
tie advanced , the tariff on coal haa already
taken an upward shoot and , effective No
vember B , the rates on packing house
products to Shreveport , Monroe and Tex-
erkana will be advanced 5 cents per hundred
pounds above the normal tariff. Railroad
men assert Chat it It no more than right
that they should enjoy their share of the
prosperity which all other enterprises are
receiving. They say that an Increase of
1 mill per ton per mile Is so slight that
the Individual can hardly realize It , hut
nevertheless that alight advance in the ag
gregate may mark the difference between
profit and loss to a majority of the railroads
In the country.

RESOLUTIONS ARE PASSED
Member * of the Votlce Relief AKHO-
clntlon Uxtircmi Sorrow nt the
Ucnth uf Their Clilef.
At a special meeting ot the Board of Di
rectors of the Metropolitan Police Relief as
sociation Thursday the following resolution
was presented by the memorial committee
and approved by the board.
Uhcrcao , A watchful and Inscrutable
Providence has called from amons us our
offlclf-nt nncl dearly beloved chief of police ,
Martin \Vhlto. and. whereas , as chief of
pol'ce , Jlartln White administered the
affairs of the department so ably.
Judiciously and successfully as to not only
mtet the approbation of his friends , but as
to challenge the admiration of nn Impotent
yet Impetuous anil Implacable enem > . and ,
Wh reas. As chief of police he exhibited
exceptional skill ind tactlc'ty. Inaugurating
reforms In the police department which not
only ripened Into police elllclcncy , but which
proved an Insurmountable barrier to crime
and criminality.
Whereas , It Is due to h's Indefatigable
efforts and strict devotion to duty tha : the
policp force hns teen brouul.t up to a hl&h
standard of efficiency , rnarktnp a new epoch
In the history of Omaha , and throwing an '
effective palladium and safeguard around
the lives and property of the citizens of
this community ;
Whereas. In his fiduciary capacity he was
scrupulously devoted to duty , beinc
solicitous of the public and at the same
tlmo zealously guarding the welfare of his
oniclal subordinates , a fearless man In the
discharge of his duty , a man devoted to
virtue and uprightness , he planted deeply
In the department the seeds of character
nna refinement , with the consequent frui
tion that Incompctency and moral lassitude
have bet-n supplanted by competency and
splendid discipline.
Whereas , By his kind and generous treat
ment , and by his sterling honesty and
Integrity , Martin White endeared hlmselr
to iich and every member of the depart
ment , and ,
Whereas , By untiring zeal and keen con
cern In the welfare of the department , and
In the peace , quietude and safety of the
public In general , he engrafted himself
deeply In our affection , therefore be It
Resolved , That we recognize In his death
the loss of a kind and hospitable com
panion , a man who -would not at the sacrl-
tlce of his life knowingly commit a wrong
or perpetrate an injustice , and be It further
Resolved , That as a testimonial to his
matchless worth as ix police ofllcer , and as
a tribute to his exemplary citizenship , a
copy of this Instrument be spread upon the
records of the association as Impartially
reflecting the sentiment of this body , and
that a copy of the same be furnished the
members of the family of the deceased ,
accompanied by an expression of their and
our Immeasurable bereavement ,

BELIEVES ANDRE IS SAFE
Ill-other ot the Polar Balloonist Una
.Vot Given L'p Hone ot Sec-
liitt Him Alive.
MOBILE , Ala. , Oct. 27. Evelyn D. Bald
win , the Arctic explorer and observer In the
United States weather bureau , TV ho has been
assigned to duty at this station , has arrived
here from Washington. He haa just re
ceived a letter from Captain Ernst Andre of
Sweden , brother ot the Polar aeronaut , and
has given to the Associated Press the fol
lowing extract , expressive ot Andre's con
fidence in his brother's safety and his con
jectures as to his whereabouts :
"My opinion Is that If roy brother had
landed anywhere- between 86 or 88degrees
north and 70 or 80 degrees west and ISO
degrees west ( Greenwich meridian ) we
would have heard from him. But not having
heard directly from him as to nls having
landed , I think be must have come down to |
the west of ISO degrees and between 83 and
87 degrees north. From 85 degrees north
and 180 degrees west It is about 750 miles to
the nearest known land , to New Siberia ,
Taymure , Franz Josef land. Greenland and
the Parry Islands. At the same dally
progress made by Xanscn of three miles. It
would take him two years to reach the coast
of the Parry ( elands and another year before
he could communicate with civilization. My
brother several times expressed his wish to
examine the ocean north of the Parry Islands.
"Tha last one of my brother's buoys was
found on the north coast of Iceland. Lately ,
however , another has lieen found on the
north coast of King Charles land , east of
Spltzbergen. He had with him twelve ouoys ,
eleven smaller ones and a large one , the
latter to be thrown out when the balloon
was as far north as the expedition expected
to reach.
"If the expedition reached 84 or 85 degrees
north and 90 or 100 degrees east and then
got northerly winds it Is most likely they
would have thrown the buoy , not expecting
to go any more to the north. But the wind
might have changed In a few houra again to
the south or southwest and thus have carried
the balloon to 84 or S6 degrees north and
SO degrees west , or ISO degrees.
"Here they may have landed In an un
explored region , previous to reaching which
they may have sailed backward and for
ward several times. Remember that the bal
loon sailed fifteen or sixteen miles an hour
during the first three houra.
"I do not put the least faith In any of
the many reports , with the exception , of
course , of the pigeon message and the two
buoys. I do not expect to hear anything
more this year , but expect to hear all the
more next summer "

STOOD OFF BY THE GUARDS
Deputy Dnited States Marshal Strikes Ob

INTERESTING CLASH OF AUTHORITIES
Cltr Attorney Conncll Come * In nn it

AdJnMmrnt In
In
Armed with awrit ot replevin , Deputy
United States Marshal Nicholson went out
to the exposition grounds Thursday night to
levy on the bollere and other machinery
used In the operation of the lighting and
power plant. Instead of being able to take
possession he came home defeated , the ex
position guards refusing to allow him to
enter the building.
The Clonbrock Steam Boiler company , the
concern that originally put In the lighting
and power plant at the exposition , contends ,
that there Is an unpaid balance of some
$2,000. Representatives of the company say j
that they have frequently demanded payment - '
ment and that It has been refused. Thursday - '
day they brought null In United States court
and secured a writ of replevin. When the
marshal -ncnt to the grounds to take pos
session he found every entraco to the buildIng - ]
Ing guarded by an officer. Ho pleaded for
admission , but this would not go. Then he
threatened , but this had no effect. Trying
to force an entrance , he was ejected and told
to go away from the premises.
The United States authorities referred the
matter to Acting Major Dtngham , who Im
mediately consulted City Attoiney Connell.
The latter advised a conservative * course.
He couldn't see the advisability ot the city's
policemen engaging In a conflict -with the
government. At the suggestion of Mr Con
nclt a meeting was held Friday , at
which the acting ma > or , city attorney and
Judge Wakeley , representing the plaintiffs ,
discussed the matter. The meeting resulted
In an understanding that the deputy mar
shal shall bo admitted to the exposition
grounds If he produces his papers , which
| the police claim he did not do when he made
i the effort Thursday night. This clash of
'
authority created much comment about the
oitr hull and It was the general sense that
Omaha Is not arrayed against Uncle Sam.
Friday afternoon Marshal Thummel took
the writ out to the grounds and In a short
time was In full and undisputed possession
ot the power plant. A number of police
men were about the building and ono or
two of them showed an Inclination to resist
the efforts of the marshal to enter. How
ever , being Informed relative to hla official
position , tney apoiogizeu ana quicKiy
stepped aside. After taking charge of the
plant. Marshal Thummel turned It over to
his men and Instructed them to see that light

ot difference can bu adjudicated , until the
close of the exposition , or until some other
arrangements can be made.
TEST WIRELESS TELEGRAPH
Navy Department Stnrtn Tlth Ex
periment * AY hi eh Will Con
tinue Several Unjs.
NEW YORK. Oct. 27. The Navy depart
ment on Thursday began a series of experi
ments with the Marconi system of wireless
telegraphy with the object of determining
its practicaniuiy zor general use tor navai
purposes on sea and land. The experiments
will extend over a period of several dajs.
The cruiser New York , Admiral Farquhar's
flagship , and the battleship Massachusetts
have been designated for use in the ex
periments and have been equipped with the
n w telegraph apparatus of Slgnor Marconi.
The particular object of the tests was to
determine the practicability of using the
system for short signalling while squadrons
are at sea. Marconi's system , if it does all
that la claimed , would be of Immense ad
vantage In this work. The afternoon experi
ments consisted ot six tests.
The first test was the sending of the con
tents of a newspaper article of about 1,500
words. This was sent and received without
a single error at the rate of eleven morris a
minute.
The second test was the sending of a
series of numbers of varying lengths which
were ticked off with a little more rapidity
than the previous message.
Test No. 3 was the sending of a series
of letters written , drawn at random. The
fourth test was the sending of a series of
short messages. The fifth and sixth testa
were the transmitting of a series of code
messages. These were enough to tax the
skill and patience of the operator , the words
having to the uninitiated absolutely no
BCnae or meaning. There uere one or two
rrors discovered In these tests , but Signer
iarconl explained that these , as well as
10 speed , were purely tests of the ability
f the operator.
The New York and Massachusetts will
eave today for a trip to sea to further
eat the new system.

and which ia about 140 feet high , a number
of sharp cunes will be avoided and the
