In Pullman, 111., Joe Wagner, 13 years old,
succeeded ln attracting attention and se
curing his release last night on the tralu
reaching the local yards ot tho Northwest
ern railroad.
When released young Wagner was faint
from want of food nnd water and barely ablo
to stand. His faco was pinched aud hag
gard and It was not until he had been
given a drink of water that ho was able to
tell anything about himself. Ho was taken
to police headquarters, where a substantial
meal was given him. Ho nto ravenously.
Ho fuld his father, John Wagner, lived
at 4931 Justin street, Pullman, III. Ho was
playing ln tbo railroad yards thure Monday
morning and was hiding from some of his
companions In an empty freight car, which
formed part of a train that had been mado
up. Tho doors of tho car wore suddenly
locked on him nnd, though ho tried to at
tract attention and secure his release, tho
train started. Several times during the trip
ho sought to win notice by beating and
kicking tho doora of the car. but failed.
When tho train reached the Northwestern
yards last night, although nearly exhausted
from tho want of food and water, he lay
on his back and beat the doors of the car
with his feet. This time one of tho train
crew heard him and released him.

Assistant Superintendent ('. M, Tntcott,
of the Pullman company, said that his com
pany's damage would amount to about
ll.fiOO, fuly covered by Insurance.
"In the building used by tho Pullman
company," he said, "wcro the linen, tho fine
wines and the cigars, the silverware and
tho china for the Union Pacific dining cars,
and this was all practically tost. All of
our records Of the stock went up In the Ore,
so that wo havo no means of telling here
definitely what was on hand. The system of
the company Is so complete, however, thai
tho office In Chicago can tell exactly what
wan In tho stock.
"Fortunately, the bulk of tho linen was
nt, tho laundry nnd thus escaped. The fire
may Inconvenience us for two or three
days, but wo will telegraph the offlco In
Chicago that tho stock Is a total loss and
a duplicate stock will be forwarded at once."
Tho buildings wero wooden sheds nnd
wero built several years ago. Inquiry at
tho office of the superintendent of motive
power nnd machlnory, under which head the
care of those buildings comes, revealed the
fact that tho loss on tho part ot the Union
Pacific is not placed at a very high figure,
because of tho condition of the structures
which burned. The machinery belonging In
tho railroad was not extensive, the value
being placed at
The question of rebuilding mill havo to
bo taken up by tho officials and the absence
of President Burt, General Manager Dick
inson and Superintendent of Motive Power
Hlgglns from tho city wilt delay an an
nouncement In this regard. However, tho
Interests cared for In those buildings will
have to bo looked -after and a rebuilding,
probably In brick, Is expected.
When asked what possibility thcro was
for tho removal ot tho cleaning and re
stocking department for tho Pullman cars
to Omaha since the destruction of the
sheds by the fire nt the Council Bluffs
transfer, one of the officials ot the Pullman
company said ho did not know what would
bo dono ln that matter and that It depends
entirely upon tho Union Pacific.
The absence? of the Union Pacific officials
from Otnuha forestalled Inquiries directed
to them. However, It has been pointed out
that the charter ot the Union Pacific ro
quires hat tho terminal shall be In Council
Illuffs and one official expressed doubt as
to such a change.
It Is understood that tho subject has
been brought up In official circles and it
may rccelvo serious consideration nt this
time, Inasmuch asNncw buildings ot some
kind will have to bo erected. The Pullman
work Is already established In temporary
quarters at tho transfer, a vacant room
having been turned1 over to the officers for
tha work.

Judge Wheeler of tbo district court Issued
an order yesterday authorizing Receivers
Bcrcshclm and Murphy to scttlo with John
P. Weaver, whose Indebtedness to the
Officer & Pusey bank amounted to nearly
$60,000. In consideration of his ontlro In
debtedness being canceled and his notes
returned to htm, Weaver will deed to tho
receivers 'all of his real property covered
by mortgages held by tho bank and will
make absolute assignment and transfer to
them all ot his persona property, except
such "as Is exefript by law'. This means
that all Weaver will practically retain will
be his homestead and household furniture.
The property thus transferred to the ro
celvers will not meet by half his Indebted
ness. The court also authorized the receivers
to dispose of tho fixtures and furniture In
tho bank and the storo building alongside.
N- P. Anderson, C. Jensen and V. Battlr.

Supervisor Apply PrunlnaT Knife in
Various Claims,
Tho Board of Supervisors finally took
action on somo of the smallpox bills yes
terday and expects to complete tho work
today.
A resolution was adopted allowing Drs.
Treynor, Emmert, Hardman and Wllllsms,
who had contracts with local boards of
health to treat smallpox patients In their
respective districts, allowing thcro $10)
each for the first treated and $50 for each
succeeding caBe. Dr. Treynor's contract
with the Board of Health of this city gave
him $200 for the first case, $100 for each
succeeding case up to five and $50 for every
caso thereafter. Under this agreement Dr.
Treynor's claim amounted to $1,750, of
which he has received $100. Yesterday's
action ot tho hoard will reduce bis compen
sation by $350. As be was under contract
with a duly authorized beard of health, u
Is doubtful If ho will accept tho supervisors'
action as final.
An allowance ot 50 cents was mndo for
each vaccination, performed by phjstclans
under contract with the Hoard of Health.
Seeral of tho physicians claimed $1 for
each vaccination.'
The board decided lo reject tha claim's

DES MOINES, Itr., April 18. (Special.)
A special meeting ot the Iowa Wholesale
Butter and Egg Dealers' association was
held ln this city today for the purpose ot
taking up the question of the Invasion of
what they consider their cxcluslvo field by
certain large packing firms, notably
Swift's and Armour's. The association rep
resents ln Itself thirty-five firms nnd In
dlvlduals engaged ln the butter and egg
business In Iowa. It maintained an nsso
elation for sclf-prcservatlon for a number
of years and has succeeded In holding the
field for Itself against all outsiders. The
last year both Armour and Swift opened
houses In the cities of the state to hsndlo
butter nnd eggs and aro taking a good share
of the business. The Iowa dealers Insist
this Is not fair. Tho packing companies
arc better able to do the business than the
smaller dealers. They have storage houses,
refrigerator cars nnd freight lines nnd are
In touch with tho market for tho product
The Iowa dealers In butter and csgs havo
determined upon warfaro against tho pa:k
Ing firms and mot today In secret session
to agree upon plans and methods. They
havo also Induced the representatives of
most of the fast freight lines running Into
the east to Join with them, nnd n number
ot the owners of largo storage houses In
eastern cities ore Interested and will glvo
support to the dealers In any movement
they may mako to retaliate upon the
packers.
Conflict of Dale.
It Is feared the conflict of dates between
the republican statu convention nnd tho
brigade encampment ot thn Iowa Natlonnl
guard at Council Bluffs will be displeasing
to many, Tho encampment Is scheduled to
begin tho same day as the stato conven
tion. A good many of those who usually
attend encampments also go to the state
conventions. They will have to miss one
or the other. In whole or part. The Cedar
Rapids people nre asking that tho data for
tho first brigade encampment at Duhtimio
be chaused from Into ln July to a date In
June, so that it will como about the samo
time as the rlflo practice meeting of thn
guard In Cedar Rapids.
If this should bo dono then the datn for
tho second brlgada encampment could be
changed to Into In July, nt the time tiio
first was to have encamped, and no conflict
would follow. The other weeks In August
were objected to ln tho state commlttco
meeting because nt the Knights of Pythias
grand lodge In Cedar Rapids the second
week In August and the holding of dis
trict courts tho latter part ot August. It
is probable somo chango. will bo made In
encarepment dates, which havo not yet beon
officially promulgated, though It Is not do
cided how this will be made.
