A report came from Cheyenne Sunday
that the Union Pacific Is planning to en
large and Improve Its shops at that place.
The plan, aa reported, contemplated the
erection of several new buildings. Includ
ing a wheel foundrjr. blast furnace and car
works.
Superintendent McKeen of the inotlTe
power and machlnerr department of the
Vnlon Pacific, waa shown the report and
asked concerning it. He asld:
"I do not know of any new plan to en
large the Cheyenne abops. If the com
pany baa any auoh plan It la newa to ins.
However, aa a matter of fact, there waa a
plan aome years ago to Increase the faclll
tlea out there and It Is likely that this may
be done In the future, but there Is no defi
nite plan to be put Into execution that I
know anything about."
From the ofllce of President Burt a sim
ilar atatement waa obtained. Mr. McKeen's
statement that such a more had been con
templated aome years ago was confirmed,
but that it would be put into operation any
time soon was doubted. "It Is certain that
the company la doing nothing with that
now," was said.
According to Mr. McKeen the old plan,
which may yet be carried out, contem
plated an extension of 150 feet to the
Cheyenne machine shops, a new power
house and a coach shop. It was the Idea
to Install all these without the erection of
any entirely new buildings, since the com
pany la well equipped with buildings there
and it seema that necessary additions to
the facilities could be made without put
ting up any more structures.
It has been estimated that the company
eould realise a saving In expenses of $15,
000 a year by the' Installation of a new
power plant alone at Cheyenne, and It Is
more than probable In view of thia fact,
which aeems to have commended itself to
the officials of the Union Paoiflo, such an
Improvement will be made In the near
future. The need of a coach shop there Is
also said to be keenly felt.
Asked If the present labor troubles had
any part In deterring the company from
tha execution of any such plans aa these
an official eald:
TJone whatever. It there was any Im
mediate likelihood of starting on this work
tha Union Pacific certainly would not
stand back because of a temporary strike
In lta shops."
Back on Train Schedule.
While all the railroads report that
their tracks, which were badly damaged
and menaced by the recent rains, some of
which are not yet out of danger, are ma
terially Improved and the water In most
places subsiding, a new obstruction to the
thorough reparation of roadbeds haa pre
sented Itself. It ta the scarcity of labor
ers. A local railroad man, whose road has
been oae of the greatest sufferers from
high water and whose tracka will require
much work before they are In anything
like normal condition, said:
"We are finding it a very severe task to
get men enough to do the work on our
roads that ought to be done at once. La
borers art scarce and despite the fact that
our road Is paying $1.76 a day for such
work. It has been able to eecure but a
very small and Inadequate force of work
men. Harvest being in- progress, I fancy
other roads will find it similarly difficult
to get men to repair their tracks. If we
could get hold of large forcea and the
weather continued aa it la for four or five
days all the tracka could be put Into ex
cellent shape."

Police Court Fall of People Charged
with Varleas Sorts ef
Offenaa.
The police are making an effort to rid
the town of a number of women of the
underworld and Inmates of immoral houses,
and as a consequence a number of women
and several men were fined In police court
yesterday. Some of these women. It Is
said by the police, have committed several
robberies lately, and as It Is very seldom
the victim will appear against them they
cannot be convicted. It is the Intention of
the police to force them out of the city.
Judge Berks followed up the work of the
police by fining everyone who wss brought
before him, with the exception of two M.
Robtnault, charged with being a auspicious
character, and J. W. Carroll who were dis
charged. Carroll waa arrested for fighting. He and
Bam HofT and a number of othera became
Involved In a fight at a saloon at Second
and Hickory atreets Sunday afternoon. Holt
and Carroll were both badly beaten. Hott
and thoce who had beat him escaped and
the Judge concluded that two black eyes
and many bruises on Carroll was sufficient
punishment.
These were fined $5 and costs: Anna
Rldgeway, Ella Oordon, Nora Smith, Lucy
Jackson, Carrie Mack, May Smith. James
Woodson, A. Llndsey, Estea Bynum, Will
Smith.

and will work at the city Jail for the next
six days. Harry Oordon was fined 14, Frank

They contain fields, forests and plains,
where the herds of the cattlemen have
succeeded the herds of buffalo; they are
watered by creeks and rivers and contain
villages and farm houses; they have
springs and lakes, where hotels and other
places of entertainment have been built for
settlers, for tourists, hunters, campera and

OUR DAVE ARRIVES AT LAST
Distinguished Stranger Come Back to
Omaha to Btpair Fsuoet.
BLISSFUL IGNORANCE ABOUT POLITICS
Will Open aa Office to Kntertala the
Faithful and Facilitate the
Distribution of Ills Cam
paign Fund.
Congressman David H. Mercer, the Long
Delayed, has arrived In Omaha.
With Mrs. Mercer and their daughter, the
distinguished stranger came yesterday
morning.
T. W. Blackburn, local manager for the
congressman, returned Baturday from the
Black Hills and has his office draped for
the coming of his lord. The dally average
of callers has been twenty-five the same
twenty-five each day and yesterday after
noon Mr. Mercer held a levee for the faith
ful and incidentally for the hopeful. Mr.
Mercer says he will open an office for their
accommodation and will really remain un
til congress reconvenes.
Monday morning shortly after his arrival
a reporter for The Bee interviewed him at
the home of his parents, 2811 Hickory
street. Interviewing; Mr. Mercer at this
particular time on any matter of real Im
portance Is done with a gimlet and a suc
tion bulb. He deters everything to "the
committee," and when reminded that the
committee deferred everything to him be
only answers that he has been so busy that
he "hasn't even thought of politics."
"I left Washington Friday, coming by
Way of Atlantlo City to get my wife and
daughter." he explained.
"How long are you to be hereT" was
asked.
"All summer. I'm here for the finish.
I've got blood In my eye and am feeling
healthy. I shall not return to the capital
until congress reconvenes."
"When Is the committee to meet?"
"I don't know. You see, I haven't seen
any of the committeemen yet."
"But the committee seems to be leaving
It all to you," was suggested. Mr. Mercer
smiled dreamily and answered: "Well, It's
cool, pleasant weather now and the people
are all pretty busy, so I guess there Is no
hurry."
About the Crawford System.
"What Is your preference aa to the man
ner of nominating? The Crawford sys
tem"
"Well. I don't know that I have any
preference. I notice that LaFollete of
Wisconsin won quite a victory tor the
Crawford system the other flay and your
paper haa sometimes seemed to favor It.
But then The Bee skips around onto so
many sides of a question that there Is
nothing assured by that."
"If the Crawford system at all, would
It be plurality or majority for selection?"
"The Minnesota law makes It plurality
and the Wisconsin recommendation makea
it plurality, but while I confess that there
are some things about the system that
Btrike me favorably, I am not prepared to
apeak advisedly on any of It yet. Indeed,
I've been too busy to pay any attention
to politics. I am through now and home
to ' look after them, but this has been
the busiest session I have ever had. I
made a record In getting through my om
nibus bill, caring for nearly 200 cities, but
I've bad hard, tedious work through the
session."
"In the event of another man being nomi
nated what will you do?" the Interrogator
ventured to ask. Mr. Mercer appeared
stunned. .
Will Do as He Bees Fit.
"Well, now that's a contingency that I
had not even thought of," be said, with a
feeble smile. "I expect to be renominated
and re-elected with absolute certainty.
They can't possibly beat me except by
skullduggery snd chicanery. And in that
event well, I reserve the. right to do as I
see fit.
"But It won't happen. I've got too many
frlenda for that. You may have noticed a
few at the Ourley-Rosewater debate. That
was an eye-opener for some people, I
guess. Why, Rosey's silly! He's silly to
get mad about that senatorial fight! I
didn't get in his way nearly as much aa he
did In mine. If I had had that Douglas
delegation I would be United States sena
tor now. But I don't get mad because I
lost. Even-tempered Is ths only way to be.
And we are all to live some time yet.
"Now that's all I can say today. I am
going to open an office downtown and will
be glad to have you call any time. Just
yet there la nothing to give out."
