PREPARE FOR ALL WINTER'S CONTEST
Clrcatlar Letters Settlaar Forth Merits
( Strike and Appealing; for
f Aid Brlasf Kent to All
, Labor l atoas.
Union Pacific strlkera have deviaed a new
method for the collection and distribution
ot funds. As the fight with the company
proceeds this work Is gradually settling
down to systematic routine. Convinced
that their struggle will at least last
through ths winter, the strikers are en
deavoring to adopt none but endurable and
practical plans for conducting their af
fairs. To this end a new Joint board of
financial directors has been organised,
with ons member from each the machinists,
blacksmiths and boiler makers. District
Secretary Samuel Grace of the machinists
becomes chairman of this board, whose
functions are to solicit aid from arganlzed
labor throughout the country and dla
trlbuts this aid to all strikers over tht
Union rsclflo aystsm.
Heretofore this work has been committed
largely to ths separate unions In ths vari
ous places along the road, but this method
lias not proven entirely satisfactory. These
Individual lodgea collected and apportioned
what money they could, but without any
deflbits and regular system their work has
necessarily been deficient. For the Omaha
strikers a federated board of representa
tives, composed of the various crafts in
volved tn the strike, has taken care of the
financial work to a large eitent and Its
efforts have been highly successful. But
It Is only a local body, which, however, will
be continued In service In connection with
ths new agencies being employed.
Yesterday morning circular letters were
sent out by ths new allied board of finan
cial directors to every organised labor
union In the United States, setting forth
ths merits ot ths strike here snd appeal
ing tor help. Former appeals of this kind
cava been generously met and large re
sults sre expected from this general ap
peal. Injaaetloa Helps Strikers.
Strikers still contend that the Baldwin
injunction la working to their advantage In
displacing large numbers of nonunion work
men. In the morning bulletin sent out to
strikers over the Union Pacific the state
ment U made that "there have been about
seventy-flvo men lsavs the shops within the
last thres days." Nineteen of this uumber
are said to have left Thursday. But whils
these seventy-five have left, many have
been aent In to take their places. Of ths
fifty-eight men employed In Buffalo and
New Yortt forty-two are said to hsvs ar
. rived Thursday and gone Into the shops.
Ths men In charge ot ths rlerlcal work
for the strikers still complain ot trouble In
Sitting their mall from the west. Up to
noon Friday none ot the morning delivery,
which usually amounts to a number of let
ters, had come In. From the first of the
strike It haa been the plan for each lodge
along the road to make daily reports to
head officers la Omaha.
' Word has besn received from Vice Pres
ident Wilson, who left here to aid in ad

SOFT COAL MAY GO HIGHER
Railroads Are Short of Locomotives
to Move Cars from tho
Mines.
Dealers in bituminous coal are looking
forward to a marked advance in the price
of all grades of that fuel. The prospective
increase Is not so much on account of the
Increased consumption due to the decreased
production of anthracite coal aa It Is to
tho fact that ths railroads are unable to
move ths coal from ths mines. Dealers
who have purchased from mines compara
tively near the city have had coal on the
road ten daya, where it has usually reached
the city in less than halt ot that time.
Ths trouble is not only to secure cars, but
to secure locomotives to move the cars
after they are loaded. One road reaching
Omaha has now a hundred csrs lying at
the mines and cannot move tttem hecause
' e ths inability to secure engines. This
I condition Is confined to no ons rosd, but all
ot them And that their bualness haa In
creased mors rapidly than their facilities.

STRANGER FROM IOWA LOSES EIGHTY
Then Starts for Police Station and
Falls Iuto Hands of Other
Friends" Who Take Bal
ance of His Money.
Philip Bennett of Clear Lake, la., and
Henry Callahan, from out in the state,
have been in the hands of new-found
friends in Oraahn, and as a consequence
Bennett is out something over $90, Calla
han Is only $20 shv and the police are look
ing for the friends.
Bennett came to town Wednesday and
while seeing the sights imbibed too much
of that which makes the legs wobbly and
the senses vague. While in this condition
he was accosted by an old friend who knew
him In the good old days when Clear Lake
was the center of commerce of the western
world. The new friend consented to take
Bennett to his room at a lodging house on
Farnam street. The stranger did so and
not only undressed Bennett, but put him to
bed and tucked the covers around him like
mother used to do. And na Bennett mur
mured hie thanks tho stranger departed.
Thursday morning Bennett discovered that
$$0 ot his money and a gold watch had
disappeared. The kind-hearted stranger
had left him $17, however.
Bennett started for ths police station to
report and Inquired the way from a man
he met on the street. To this man Ben
nett told his story. And here was where
Bennett made another mistake. The
stranger advised Bennett not to go to the
station. "Come with me," he aald, "I
know the man and I can get your money."
The two then went toward Council Bluffs.
Walks Into Tall Weeds.
Shortly after they left the tar they were
met by a second man who was to pilot
thi'.n to Bennett's friend. The three went
serosa lots and finally wound up In a large
patch of high weeds. "Nay shell out the
balance of that money," commanded the
two new friends. And Bennett "shelled."
Bennett then walked back to Omaha and
yesterday reported bis loss to the po
lice. Later Detectives Donohue and Sav
age arrested Abraham Love, who was
Identified by Bennett aa the last man to
touch him. Love refused to return to Iowa
without requisition papers and Bennett
borrowed 25 cents from the desk sergeant
to make the trip to the Bluffs to get out
the papers.
Callahan's friend worked along the same
line and showed that same generous spirit
that Bennett'a first friend displayed. He
volunteered to escort Callahan, who was
Intoxicated, to hia hotel. The out-of-town
man eagerly accepted the offer sad allowed
the stranger to accompany him to hia room
and put him to bed. Yesterday Calla
han discovered that he had been robbed of
$20. a watch and a ring. The good Samari
tan had left about $S In Callahan's pocket.
A descriptlcn of the man waa given to tho
police.

There.
George Shiller was arrested yesterday
afternoon and locked up charged with false
Imprisonment. B. Gleckinan, a dealer In
old rags and such, was the complaining
witness and also the prisoner. The place
of confinement waa the barn in the rear
of the old city jail at Fifteenth and Jack

ler and a crowd ot men were In the barn
rushing the can when he drove past. 8blller,
he said, called to him that In the barn
were a number of old rags and horse
shoes that were for sale. Gleckmau,
scenting a bargain, walked into the barn
and back Into a dark cell, where the horse
shoes were supposed to be. Immediately
the door was closed and locked. Then
Shlller informed Gleckuian that he would
be released for $1. This Gleckmao refused
to give and the price was lowered to 23
rents. Glerkmsn refused lo pay the ran

Fast Pace Leads to Arrest.
Ernest Berghoff of New York City was
arrested yesterday evening at the Dellone
hotel on a telegraphic order from the
Chicago Chief of poilue. He expressed his
willingness to go to that city without pa
pers and will be held pending the arrival
of an officer. It Is said that young Berg
hoff. who is about 22 years old. has been
living In Chicago for about six months and
spending a great deal of money. Although
he had a private bank account In his home
city, he wus forced to call on his father
repeatedly tor more money. In the end
he is said to have forged the elder man's
name to several checks. The prisoner
himself says that his father sent him sev
eral checks, some of which he had cashed.
At the same time, without his own knowl
edge, the father ordered payment stopped
on these, because he had heard of the
son's bad conduct. This caused the
trouble.
Arrested for Htrlklnsr His Wife.
Frank Warren of 1701 Ieavenworth atreet

SEARCHLIGHTS OF DOUBTFUL VALUE
With Rays Thrown Directly on the
Vessels They Could Not Always
Be Seen by Observers
on the Shore.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. In his report
to the secretary of the navy upon the com
bined operations between the army and
navy Admiral Higglnson Is roost generous
in his distribution of praise among the
officers of the squadron and especially does
he commend Rear Admiral Coghlin for bis
very able and efficient assistance. His lead
ing the squadron Into Newport at night,
through blinding sesrchlights and smoke
and against a strong current, Is pronounced
to have been a brilliant piece of navigation,
requiring a steady and undaunted nerve.
Great credit is awarded to Captain Lyon
of Olympla for his cable-cutting operations
and to Captain Brownson ot Alabama and
Captain Manney ot Massachusetts for their
able work. In taut nearly all the squad
ron officers receive their share of praise
in the admiral's report, wherein is noticed
the particular service which each ren
dered. Touching the operations themselves, Ad
miral Higglnson says:
The whole and only Intention was to de
velop, If possible, any weak points In the
line of defenses established by the army,
but whether we have uone so or not re
mains to be decided by the board ot Ar
bitration. The work has been arduous and
Irving, Including much night navigation,
and I cannot speak too highly of the way
in which It has been carried out by the
officers and men of the squadron.
Value ot Searchlights.
The admiral comments strongly upon
some ot ths lessons to be learned from the
maneuvers. For Instance, he says:
Much valuable knowledge in regard to the
searchlights has been obtained during these
operations and the general opinion seems
to be that they are not so effective as has
been supposed. In approaching positions
at night the searchlights would flash very
otteu upon the itlilps, lighting up smoke
stack and hull, so that large print could
easily be read, and everyone supposed the
snips had been discovered, out me searcn
llghts would turn away and, evidently, the
observers had not seen the vessels. In
rainy or misty weather the value of search
lights is, 1 tnink, decreased from 25 to SO
per cent.
I had, unfortunately no opportunity to
teat the value of fog for running past bat
teries. I was. therefore, obliged In run
ning past Fisher's Island and Into Newport
to select clear nignts, ' army nignis, wnere
everv chance was with the enemy, and I
had little hope of a successful Issue, but
as my guiding motive was to help the
army test their equipment rather than to
gain points, I did not hesitate to take the
losing side.
One point in connection with the search
llvhts established waa that If all other
aids to navigation have been extinguished
we have in the searchlights of the enemy
a sufficient guide for an approach to his
position.
