DEAL ON WITH DEMOCRATS
Vcror Arraifei to Hit Kitchcock Put
In Nomination.
FINDS ED HOWELL READY FOR A TRADE
Object I to Hare Democratic Nominee
Who Cannot Draw Votes of
AatKMercer Republicans.
Political Doings.
"At the congressional convention tomor
row," said a leader of the antl-Herdman-Howell
faction yesterday, "The demo
cratic party of this district Is to be de
liberately and disgracefully traded off. The
bargain has been made between the Herd-inan-Howell
clique and the Mercer man
agers, and It only remains for so-called
delegates of the party to carry It out In
convention. Lee Herdman and Ed Howell
named this delegation and as they control
It absolutely there has been no hesitancy
on their part to negotiate for its delivery
In the Interests of Ed Howell's candidacy
(or mayor. The bargain has been made
with the Mercer clique of so-called repub
licans and the agreement Is to nominate
O. M. Hitchcock for congress In considera
tion of a promise from the Mercerltes to
kelp elect Howell mayor next spring.
"The whole deal rests on the presump
tion that the republicans are to nominate
Mercer and Moores, and the end aimed at
Is the election of Mercer and the defeat of
Moores. Few democrats believe that Hitch?
cock would poll the full vote of the fuslon
lsts, and not one thinks for a moment that
lie could win out. Mercer has realized all
along that the opposition to him In his own
party is so strong and irreconcilable that
be could not be elected If nominated, in case
tha democrats put up a man who could
gather in the votes of those republicans
who are opposed to him. So the point with
him and a point preliminary even to his
.nomination was to see that the democratic
nominee should be one wbo could not get
, the support of the anti-Mercer republicans.
Tnat is why the democratic convention has
been called before the republican conven
tion and that Is why Hitchcock is Mercer's
,man. The whole thing la as plain as the
nose on your face. If Mercer is to be the
(republican candidate, the only hope of elect
ing the democratic nominee Is the hope of
', having him draw the votes of the antt
v Mercer republicans. Hitchcock, of all men,
la the last man to do this.
"In return for the nomination of Hitch
' cock. Mercer's managers promise to help
; nominate and elect Ed Howell mayor next
aprlng. Furthermore, they promise In the
' event of Mercer's defeat at the republican
primaries and the nomination of some other
republican for congress to turn In and help
elect Hitchcock. And that Is what Hitch
cock gets out of the- deal. The most dis
graceful part of the whole transaction Is
. the selling out of the democrats of this dis
trict Ilka so many cattle."
The deal to nominate Hitchcock and bis
.expressed wiiiiuguea to accept niUcs ths
following card, published at the head of the
editorial page of the World-Herald ef June
SO, of timely interest:
Borne discussion having arisen concerning
the project of nominating .me for congress
in this district I take this occasion to say
that I am not and will not become a candi
date. I appreciate the good will of those
who have proposed my name, but I cannot
undertake to make the race.
O. M. HITCHCOCK.

Laid Ont with Flatlron.
A young negro, William Bryant, lay last
night on a cot at the city Jail under medical
Inflection, so that it could be known
whether his skull had been fractured, ren
dering his condition serious, or If only the
outer shell of bone had been splintered. His
condition was due to a wound In the
crown of the head where Irene (or Delia)
Myers had struck him with the point of a
six-pound polishing Iron during an alterca
tion at their rooming place In the rear of
the frame house ut Thirteenth and Dodge
streets. Shortly before 11 o'clock Mrs. Liza
Carter heard a cry and running downstairs
found Bryant lying in the yard. Officer
McCarthy was summoned and soon found
the Myers woman, whom he arrested.
Bryant was not able to give the particulars
of th row. The woman said that they had
quarreled .when coming home on Tenth
street earlier In the evening and that
Bryant had tried to cut her with a knife.
When they reached their room, she says,
he threatened her again with the knife.
The house where the trouble arose Is oc
cupied by Mrs. Cady, and the two have
been there only a short time. Mrs. Carter,
whose property the iron is, was much con
cerned when this was carried off to the
pcilce station and Implored the officers to
return It in time for her morning work.
Hoit Gets Into Hewer Ditch.
When Fred and Mrs. 8tromberg of 4303
Saratoga street were driving along Bristol
street shortly after 8 o'clock last evening
they were much concerned when the rear
legs of their strong little mare Dolly sud
denly shot downward Into the evening
gloom and Dolly herself began to sink
backward Into the street, struggling fran
tically. Now Stromberg had simply driven
over an open sewer excavation, which for
three days has yswned in the street before
the new nouses of E. K. Huntlev at 2521 and
i&22 Bristol. As the horse hung by the half-
broken harness in such a way that it waa
In danger of strangling it was necessary to
cut the leather and let Dolly fall to the
bottom of the trench. Neighbors assisted
In digging out one end of the cutting Into
an inclined plane and with the aid of a
rope the horse was pulled to the street
level wltbrut much injury. The red light
had burned out.
Discover What Would Happen.
The Are department had a run yesterday
evening all because two youngsters wanted
to see what would happen If No. 87 was
called on the telephone. The alarm came
from the Tenth Street mission. At about 5
o'clock Miss McOee, when leaving the mis
sion, allowed a few boys to remain playing
crotiuet. She told them to put the set
away when they had finished. It was
while carrying out this instruction that
temptation In the form of the small red
card with the large S7 pasted on the tele
phone came to the eye of two colored boys
of H and 13 years, respectively. Henry Tal
bot and John Duncan. The pair were later
arrested and are locked up. Thirty-seven

HARD FIGHT TO KEEP MEN
Unitn Pacifio Brings in More Wart-men,
Many of Whsm Dsisrt.
STRIKERS' FRIENDS AMONG THE LOT
Company Imports Thirty-Two from
East and Sends Them West
with Ten from Local
Shops.
Interest in the Union Pacifio strike af
fairs again has shifted to the company's
effort at manning its shops. Unusual ac
tivity along this line has marked the prog
ress of the fight during the last two days.
With the addition and subtraction process
constantly In operation It seems to be a
"stand-off" between gutting men In the
shops and keeping them from going out.
Friday morning a carload of men arrived
over the Milwaukee from the east, thirty
two In all, and these, with ten taken from
the local shop force, were sent out farther
west, the plan being to employ them In
other shops at different points. Most of
the Milwaukee crowd wore said to be union
men, and It Is said they would desert the
company upon their arrival at their des
tinations. Their scheme Is to get to the
Pacific coast, and they are taking advantage
of the company's free transportation to ac
complish this end.
Another imporatlon of fourteen men came
In yesterday morning on the Illinois Central
"billed" from Chester, Pa, Twelve of this
number left on their arrival and joined the
strikers. The leader of the crowd had this
o say:
"We were hired In Chester on the under
standing that there was no strike out here,
and, while we had our auspicious, we knew
nothing positively until our arrival. We
had come to the conclusion, however.
shortly before reaching Omaha that
there was a strike on, aa they locked
the car doors for tear we would leave the
train, and we determined to do so at the
first opportunity. This chance was not
offered until our car was run into the shop
yards and we were turned loose. We were
ushered into the dining room at the shops
for breakfast and within a few minutes
twelve of us had made our exit."
Don't Know tha Trade.
Two young men left the shops here yes
terday who were employed aa blacksmiths.
Their names are given as F. W. Oreen,
who halls from a ranch In. 8outh Dakota,
and John Matteaon. Green says he and
Matteson art carpenters by trade and had
been at work at that trade for the Union
Pacific here, but when the forre in the
blacksmith shop ran low they were told to
go in there and work. Not being familiar
with that character of work, the young
men left rather than undertake a new oc
cupation. Oreen says about twelve fire, are run
ning In the blacksmith shop. He and
blacksmiths deny that there are twenty,
as has been given out.
Word was received from Cheyenne stat
ing that the shop fcrce there has been un
dergoing additional losses. Besides tha
twenty-four men who left ssveral days
ago. twelve are reported to have quit
Wednesday, materially reducing tha force.
These defections at Cheyenne and other
western towns make It necessary for the
company to take men from Hs Omaha
shops.
The union men manage toellp a man Into
the local shops every little while, but In
some cases their men are detected by offi
cials and promptly dismissed. Thursday R.
Schlegl, an Austrian who bad been in the
company's employ before the atrlke, was
sngsgsd La repairing a bollsr La tha Omaha
