NOTIFIES POLICE, WHO START TO RESCUE Officers Wh at Foot of Doaalas Street for Floating- l wltk Hainan FretcM, bat It i . Fall, to Appear. Two children who were clinging desper atsly to a log which waa floating la the mld dls of the .Missouri river were probably drowned yesterday morning between the East Omaha' bridge and the Douglas street bridge. 1 ' The children were first sighted coming lown the river about 8:15 o'clock by the watchman at the East Omaha bridge. They ware clinging to a log. one on each side, and the log was -whirling round and round In the water. The log and Its human freight rame from up the river and was seen as It went under the bridge. The watctoman aaw It come out b;low the bridge, but having no means of rescue at hand could do nothing to save the children. He aaw the log caught la a whirlpool and after being whirled around for a few seconds It snot down stream at a terrific rate of speed. He noti fied the yardmaster of .the OmahaBrldge and Terminal company and he In turn, tele phoned the police station. It waa thought by that time 'that the children would be passing the pumping station at the foot of Burt street. Pol tee Rash to, Rescae. Captain Hayes, and several officers rushed to the Douglas street bridge ami had the officers of Henrietta, the excursion steamer, lower several boats, in readiness to rescue the children. " The officers kept a strict watch for over an hoiir, but the log and children failed to put In an appearance. The newa that a rescue would be at tempted at the foot of ' Douglas street quickly spread and soon after the arrival of the officers a hundred people had con gregated. At one time a log was sighted at the bend of the river, some distance from the bridge, upon which were two large knots. . It was at first thought these were the children, and a rush was made for the boats. Before the men reached the log, however, their mistake was discovered. , It waa then thought that the watchman bad been mistaken. He was communicated with and said there could not possibly have been a mistake. He' saw the children almost In the middle of the river and he .was on one end of the bridge. Both chil dren were partially under 'water and were holding onto the log, but It was Impossible for him to tell whether they were boys or girls. It was the general Impression that they had floated down from some of the flooded districts up the river. At the pumping station and at the city pound at the foot "of Webster street the children were not seen. . It Is believed that they were drowned. Searching partlea are out Investigating, and It may be possible the children were washed .ashore or were rescued somewhere below the East Oamha bridge. ' It transpires that -the bridge watchman who first saw the children on the log, be lieves them to have been tied to the drift wood and la sure that they were dead. He aaya that as the log rolled about the bodies made no motion and that they were In an unnatural position. ; Ceatstlpatlon Cared. y, It 1 a great mletake for any troubled : with constipation to fill themselves full of drugs, the effects of which are often more injurious than otherwise.

The little Iris walked the entire distance from Char ter Oak, la., to Omaha, arriving at the Eaat Omaha bridge Wednesday night, from which place they were taken to the police station yesterday morning. Their shoes were worn almost soletess and their feet are blistered and sore from coming in contact with the hard roads during the three days' trip, Their clothing, though neat, tells of poverty. i The girls are cousins and made their home .with the father and mother of the Miller girl until recently.

After the death of Mrs. Miller the farm upon whlrb they lived was taken y cred itors and the gtrls were turned adrift. They secured employment In Charter Oak, but were soon again turned on the world. Sev eral days ago they concluded to leave Char ter Oak and go to a city where employment would be more easily found. Omaha was their Mecca, and about 8 o'clock Wednesday night two footsore and tired girls attempted to vi k across the East Omaha bridge. The watchman stopped . them and listened to their story. They spent the night at his house and yesterday he gave them eome small change and sent them to the police station. During their long walk the girls said they had been well treated on the road by farm ers, from whom they secured food and lodg ing. They have changed their minds about working in a city and desire good homes in the country. Both are bright girls of more than ordinary education. The police expect to secure homes for them soon. Before 8 o'clock last evening there were six applications to the police by various partlea who wished to take the two little girls and make comfortable homes for them.

Seth Patterson, who Is stationed in the flag shanty, said Johnson got off an outbound car a short time before ths shooting. He said that the man had considerable difficulty In getting to the roadway and that he used crutches.

Ths Union Pacific has gone back Into the Western Immigration bureau, from which It withdrew a few weeks ago on the grounds that it was not getting its just proportion of the percentages and that the pro rata expenses were exoroiiam. This report was published in the morning papers: CHICAGO, July The Western Passen ger association has Issued a circular can celling the letter announclnr the with drawal of the Union Pacific from the West ern Immigration bureau. The announce ment la taken as an indication that the differences of tne bureau over ins iiuui. gratlon bualneaa have been adjusted at the Colorado Springs meeting, it is presumed that the Santa Fe and Southern PaclHo receded from their' former demands and that a compromlee waa effected satisfactory to all. Wnrrf has been received at the Union Pacific headquarters la Omaha from Gen P.ii.ninr A rent Lomil. Who is at the Colorado Springs meeting, confirming this press report. Mr. Imax succeeaea in ratlin what concession his road de manded and then withdraw the order an nouncing the Union Pacifies withdrawal th Immigration bureau. Officials in Omaha say there Is some mistake In the report referring to tne Southern Pacific and Santa Fe as having had demands from which they receded. As a matter of fact, they say neither of these roads bad made any complaints, ana that in far aa waa known there was no reason why they should object to condi tions aa ther formerly existed, for botn got a lion's sbars of the traffic. It waa the Rock Island that made tbe first objections to ths methods of ths lm,..n an withdraw from It. Ths baalS of cAmplsint of this road was that since ths completion. of Its El Paso route to tne coast It did not get a fair sbars ot tho percentages and bad to bear Its propor tion of the enormous expenses just the same. It Is believed that these differences hsve been or will be cleared up before ths transcontinental meeting adjourns and that tbe Rock Island will return to ths bureau as did the Union Pacific.
