demanded 14 per hundredweight for the

the men. The merchants intimated that
the price for aeals would be at least i.iO
per hundredweight, the same as ltst year,
but declined to Indicate whether any ad
vance waa likely. The authorltlea Bay that
the condition of the foreign markets rea
ders an advance Improbable.
Regarding the other claims presented by
the moo for better accommodations and
other minor concessions, It la understood

next year, but decline to alter existing
conditions under threat of a atrike.
.The matter la now at a deadlock and

the atrlke has virtually collapsed and that
all the men are ready to Bail tomorrow,
being satisfied that certain modifications
will follow.
The leaders of the atrlke assert tbst the
men will not sail tomorrow and that the
ships will be powerless. In tbe meanwhile
the owners are arranging to secure other
supplies, men and crews for the ships
should this be necessary.
The sealers held a big meeting last night
to discuss the matter, but no decision wss
reached. The men suiter from lack of or

Kubeltk, then, according to this, must
regard Omaha a great commercial center,
but he didn't try to portray thia fact by
taking snapshots In th wholesala district,
Instead he stopped his carriage on the west

trained hla camera aouth by southwest.
It swept a vsst expanse of railroad yards
with long lines of freight cars, tier after

was hssv and th sky overcast, so the ex
poeur had to b much longer than would

overcome thia obstacle, Kubellk alighted
from th carriage and reated hie camera
unon the aouth railing ot tb bridge.
