they were unlawful In tbe!r opposition to

OPERATORS ORGANIZE UNION
Men Who Handle Commercial Itusl
nria to the Nnmber of Kitty
. Slain the Charter.
A local division of the International Un
ion of Commercial Telegraphers was organ
ised last night at a mass meeting of the
commercial operators of Omaha, South
Omaha and Council Bluffs. The meeting
was an enthusiastic one, and every branch
of commercial telegraphy was represented.
The officers elected were from the different
brsncbes of the business, and are old timers
In the craft. When the charter list Is com
pleted It Is expected that fifty members
will have signed the roll, which will re
main open until the next meeting, to be
held In about two weeks. Committees on
constitution and by-laws and organization
were named, who will report at the nex.
meeting, at which time the application for
a charter will be made.
The first national convention of the or
Sanitation was held in Chicago ten days
ago. An Omaha representative was made
one of the vice presidents. He mado a re
port to the meeting last night, stating that
the International union already has about
forty locals. The organization is formed
on the lines of the International Typograph
leal union, and all secret work, which has
been a feature of former attempts to or
ganlze the commercial operators, has been
done away with. Application bas been
made to the American Federation of La
bor tor a charter in that organization.

Sickness steals more savings than the
burglar. Slowly, coin by coin, the
ruouey that bas been so hardly earned
is paid out for drags snd doctors.
Sickness is the worst enemy of the work
ing man, snd the common cause of the
working man's sickness is disease of the
( stomach often involving the heart, lungs,
' liver, or kidneys.
Tbe use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Med-
; leal Discovery wUl stop the stealing of
the savings by sickness. It cures dis
eases of the stomach, and other organs of
digestion and nutrition. It cures die-
eases of heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, etc.,
when these diseases are caused by the
diseased condition of the stomach and
its allied organs.

FAVOR REFUNDING MONEY
MoM of (oinrllmra WmM night
Admitted Wrong Ilnne to
Gardener.
The general committee of the city council
was waited upon yesterdsy by a delegation
of market gardeners, who entered a pro
test against the way thty have been treated
in the management of the present market
accommodations. It was shown that the
gardeners In question had been charged
rental for stalls or space In the new market
which it was Intended should be located
on Capitol avenue, but had never received
any benefit from the money they bad thus
paid. It was stated that all of tho meu
had paid as much as $5, and some as high
as 132. making a total of $,"48.75, but that
instead of being in any way favored they
were compelled to remain at the old How
ard street market and compete for the de
sirable positions with the hucketers from
Council Blulffs and other outside places.
The general sentiment among members of
the council was that inasmuch as the city
bad furnished the gardeners nothing for
the money tbey bad paid the money should
be refunded to them, and an ordinance will
be Introduced at the council meeting to
night to correct the admitted Injustice.
Building Inspector Carter urged the coun-
cllmen to take steps to pay the bill for the
digging of a well at the emergency hospital
for which be had made a contract with the
understanding that the man who did the
work should receive bis money as soon as
the well was completed. The well, Mr. Car
ter explained, was a necessity from the fact
that the one formerly In use ran dry at
the critical time when there were small
pox patients at the hospital and water
could not be obtained from any of the
neighbors because of the danger of con
tagion. The contractor bad Incurred In
debtedness for the material used and for
his help and certainly deserved that his
bill of $284.80 should be paid. The coun-
oilmen agreed that there was no qustlon
as to the correctness of the bill snd that
It should be paid at once, but there was
some doubt as to whether that could be
done In the present condition of the gen
eral fund. The matter will be taken up at
the meeting tonight.
HOLDS ANNUAL FALL OPENING
Young Women's Christian Association
Throws Open Its ew
Una rt era.
The Young Women's Christian association
held its annual fall opening last evening
lu Its rooms In the Paxton block, tbe gath
ering being In the nature of a bousewsrmlng
of the newly acquired rooms aud the In
troduction of the three new secretaries who
have been added to the staff this fall.
The new reading and rest rooms were
thrown open and despite the inclement
night, were well filled with Interested
friends of the association work Out In
the new assembly room the program opened
with devotional services, conducted by Mrs.
Wells of Chicago, who took as her theme
the personal obligations of the women. Mrs,
Emma F. Byers, general secretary, spoke at
length of the various departments of the
association's work and of tbe extension
that the new quarters had made possible.
Then came the Introduction of the new
secretaries. Miss Oberg, assistant general
secretary. Miss Tlcknor. physical director.
snd Miss Nellie Welker. extension secretary.
There was nuslg. by the Young Women's
Christian association quartet and a solo by
Mrs. Edwards.
The remainder of the evening was devoted
to sociability. Over in the lunch rooms,
which bad been brightened with the car
nival .colors, ths work of the various com
mittees waa arranged at tables with reg
isters for those caring to enter the classes.
There wss a prettily trimmed booth with
Illustrations of the work In pyrogrspby
snd basket weaving and another where
members of the educational committee ex
plained the work of the classes. In tbe
west room were the refreshment tables,
from which members of the committee
served coffee and wafers.
Since the acquisition of the new rooms
the Idea seems to have gone abroad that
tho effort for the new building Is at an end.
The members of the association wish It un
derstood that this Is a mistake, that the
present extension Is but the means of ac
commodating the 2.000 members who hope
to make the new building possible within
another year.
SPOILING FUTURE CHANCES
BlnsT the Mereerltes Are Trying to
Work to Hold Republicans lu
Line for Mercer.
OMAHA. Sept. 29. 1902. To the Editor of
The Bee: 1 niet William F. Gurley on Sat
urday and he told me that I was spoiling
my chances for the future If I continued to
oppose Dsve Mercer. I wss In attendsnco
at the debate between yourself and Ourlcy
a few weeks ago and heard you charge hKn
with Instructing bis tenant, Johnny Wright,
who keeps a saloon and gambling houss on
lower Capitol avenue, to take Ransom's ad
vice In voting for candidates. At that time
Ransom was working for the democratic
ticket.
This charge Ourley did not deny, so I
took It for granted that he preferred Hitch
cock at that time to Mercer, and yet this
did not spoil Ourley's rhancs to go to the
national convention. Two years ago Our.
ley worked and voted for tbe fusion candi
dates for the legislature when he must havs
known that their election would result In
tbe election of Hitchcock and Bryan or
Allen and Bryan to the United States senate
Qurley was st that time s member of
Mercer's congressional committee, and al
though be snd Blackburn knifed the legts
latlve ticket It did not seem to spoil their
chancea for running tbe congressional cam
palgn this year. Now, I am not a member
of any committee, not a candidate for any
office, and Mr. Ourley's threats that I will
spoil my chances for political advancement
don't scare me worth a cant.

Police I. ram Lesson la Eroaosnlca
from Salt Brosght by Donsdns
t'oonty Against city for
Large Amount.
The suit recently Instituted against
South Omaha by Douglas county to recover
some 114,000 for the care of prieoners sent
to the county Jail from South Omaha, has
opened the eyes of the police to the tact
that the average prisoner can be put to a
better use than boarding at the expense
of 8outh Omaha tax payers.
In all probability from now on. no pris
oner will be sent to the county jail unless
be Is absolutely unable to perform any
work for the city. There seems to be no
end of work ready to be done, scattered
throughout the town and this work prob
ably will be done from now on by laborers
confined in the Jail.
Some of the unpaved streets crossing on
Q street and streets south of that are sail
to be in a dangerous condition and It Is
proposed to fill up the numerous ditches
and Improve the general condition of the
streets. The success of the city this sum
mer In coping with the weeds of tbe town
has greatly encouraged the officials In the
efficiency of Jail labor and It Is generally
believed that all of the Improvement work
necessary can be done without addltioual
expense to the city.
"There la no question but tbat all of
this work ran be done," said a police offi
cer last evening. "Of course some little
expense must be Incurred before It Is at
tempted. In the first place It will be nec
essary to provide more comfortable quar
ters for the prisoners If we expect then)
to do the work. But all that would be
necessary would be the purchase of a few
cots. Anything would be better than to
require them to lie upon the cold cement
floor."
It ts thought that If this plan Is put Into
operation several damage suits against the
city will be avoided. Some of the roads
In the southern part of the city are said
to be simply Inviting accidents, and the
police say it will prevent them In this way.
Tbat Is, if the supply of "vags" hold out.
Saloon Cases Today.
Own or to the fart that the saloon men
rnder arrest for violation of the state liq
uor laws demanded a Jury trial of their
cases, they were all postponed. Two of
the cases will be tried today, those against
John KNoloski ana Dennis lusning. w nen
the cases were called for trial yesterday
afternnnn the court room waa Decked with
defendants and their witnesses, but there
was a total k'uielitii of auli-aaluou leag
uers. Not one of tbe anti-saloon men ap
peared and neither did the witneeses In
any of the cases. At last two witnesses
were found in tbe Cushlng and Krtoloskl
cases with tho reeult as stated. The bal
ance of the cases will be tried next Friday
afternoon and In tbe meantime subpoenas
will be Issued for each of the policemen
who made the different arrests. The Jury
which will try the cases this morning Is
composed of the following persons: Harry
B. Manifee. Herbert Broadwell. John J.
Russell, J. S. McReynolds, Ous Beaver and
John Fll'nn.
Another Adjournment.
Vntwlthatandinar all of the promises to
the contrary, ths school bosrd failed to
meet last nleht. This fsllurS WSS la fSCO
of the fact that numerous cases of Illness
were reported among tbe school children on
Mni of hulldlne-s Inadequately heated
and the further fact that school build
ings have recently been broken Into and
wantonly destroyed. A
strong pressure was brought to bear on the
board to have It bold a meeting, but It was
of no avail. The postponement was aue, u
is stated, to tho fact mat a majority oi
the board refused to entertain such a
proposition ss holding a meeting while It
waa raining. One of the members further
... that tha hiah school building was
too cold to meet in. but Ignored the re
minder that pupils were compelled to sit in
this building day after day.
Henchman Goes Crasy.
n t nminea. a nromlnent ranchman from
Norden, Neb., became violently Insane at
h atnrkvarda yesterday and before ne
could be lodged in Jail, fought a tierce
e.h with hta eaDtors and Droits several
windows In the old Riley hotel, Twenty,
fifth and O streets. He was first discovered
k. hi. inn. who etrusaled with his rather
for a long time and barely prevented tbe
crated man from not only burling himself
out of a fourth-story window, but drsgglng
the boy along aa well. His son's cries soon
attracted outsiders and the police were
called and be waa locked up. He la said
to be subject to occasional fits of Insanity.
He waa better last evening and taken to bis
borne In Norden.
Short on Cattle Cars.
Owing to the fact tbat the railroads were
all unable to furnish sufficient cars for the
purpose, a number of cars of rsttle were
yesterday strung out on all of the different
lines leading to the city. Railroad officials
In South Omaba say that tbs roads simply
cannot meet the demands of the shippers,
as the supply Is now so great tbat It has
simply overtaxed their powers of filling
orders. Prominent stockmen say that ths
run probably will continue for ssveral weeks
longer, with a constant good run of cattle
during the entire fall.
New Carriers Tomorrow.
The three new carriers who will be em
ployed as extra letter carriers In South
Omaha will report for duty tomorrow morn

TO PAVE FLORENCE BOULEVARD
Members of Park Board Disagree
on Material to Be
Card.
After disposing of Its routine business,
which consisted chiefly of approving the
regulsr bills for current expenses and the
pay rolls, tbe park board spent a greater
part of yesterday afternoon In discussion
ot the proposed paving of Florence boule
vard, which still presents some difficulties.
These difficulties are entirely ot a financial
nature and It Is believed may be satisfac
torily adjusted between the park board, the
Board ot County Commissioners and the
contractor, who has been figuring upon tbe
work. Tbe members present yesterdsy were
Messrs. Craig, Cornish, Evans and Oonden,
the two first named being ia. favor of clos
ing a contract for tbs vitrified brick block
pavement, while the others hesitate to do
so for tbe reason that tbey wish to be more
fully assured than at present, that the board
In undertaking that expense will not preju
dice the Interests of tbe Improvements to
other boulevards tbat have been planned to
be paid for out of tbe apportionment to
be received from tbe current tax levy. As
an argument In favor of the adoption of tbe
brick pavement rather than the lees expen
sive macadam, it has been urged that In
the long run ths cost will be met by the
county and will only fall upon the park
board, temporarily.
The board granted Miss R. L. Hamlin ot
Brownell hall, permission to take ber class
In botany to Rlvervlew park to collect
specimens of moss and wild flowers.

Actuated by a desire for revenge, and prob
ably temporary Insanity, R. 8. Davis, a

tbe drug str.re ot Mrs. White, returned to
his own store, set fire to it, snd wss him-

Davis Imagined that Mrs. White was un

Official i at Washington.
SUGGESTS THAT WARSHIPS BE SENT
If Commanleatlon Is Interrupted His
Baaareetlon Probably Will Be Acted
I pon Department Instructs
Commanders.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 29. The following
cablegram bas been received here from
Minister Bowen, dated at Caracas, yeeter
dsr: I have been reliably Informed that the
f government will probably cut all the cable
Ines this week. Therefore I wuggest the
dlapatch to this point of warships in case
communication is Interrupted.
The dispatch Is Interpreted sa showing
conditions unfavorable to the government
of Venesuela, as except In the event that
the tide has turned strongly against it, It
is thought here there would be no desire
on Its part to prevent the news of the
dally happenings In the csmpalgn from
reaching the outside world. As for tbe
warships requested, Montgomery is already
under orders to go to the Colombian coast
from Haytl, where It Is now looking Into
some complaints made by an American
corporation to tbe effect that Its business
at Port De Palx is Jeopardized by a threat
of the national party to land troops In
that Insurgent stronghold. Later on, San
Francisco and Olympla will be available
It needed on the Venezuelan coast.
While the Navy department bas no ves
sels Immediately available to meet the
suggestion of Minister Bowen, the cruiser
Raleigh, now at the Boston yard, will be
In commission In a few days, and It waa
said at the department today that It prob
ably will be sent to Venezuela If the pros
pective Interruption to communication ma
terializes. A cablegram was sent to Com
mander Rodgers ot tbe gunboat Marietta
gt La Ouayra this afternoon Instructing
him from what points to communicate with
tbe Navy department It the cables are cut.
Te Arrest France's Cable Manaaer.
POUT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, Sept. 29.
News bas been rocelved here from Ventz
uela that General Valutlni, aclirg as vpeciti!
delimits f;r the Caracas government bas
ordered the arrest ot the manager of the
French cable office at Cirulano, as well as
the company's clerks at tbat point. It
Is said at Carupano that General Volutlul
bad no right to taks the action ba did. The
French consular agent at Carupano, who In
terfered In behalf ot the manager and
clerks of the cable company, was also
placed under arrest. Tbe cable office at
Cbrupano Is closed and coastwise cable
communication has been Interrupted for the
lat five days. The Venezuelan cruiser
Reataurador is suspected of having cut the
French cable in order to prevent the revo
lutionists from using it. Tbe manager of
the offices ot the cable company at Caracas
have protested at what they call tha "ar
bitrary action of the government." M.
Qulvereux, French consul at Caracas, has
alsi protested against the arrest of the
cable employes st Carupano and the cut
ting of the cable without notice. The
French cruiser Tags Is expected shortly to
reach Carupaao. The German cruiser
Vl ieta la expected at La Guayra to replace
tbe German cruiser Kalke, which Is going
to Haytl.

ularly. In the last few days tanl of rev
oliitlonlata have Ixen seen on the line of
the railrosd. Governor has protested
aaalnat the landing of Americans, (signed)
LHHMAN.
It U gathered from the above tbat tbe
protest referred to was directed to Com
mander McLean of Cincinnati during the
course of his recent visit to Panama, as no
protest has come to the State department
through any diplomatic channel. There
fore it is proposed to regard this matter as
one of the disposition of tbe naval author
ities on the Isthmus, who are believed to
be better fitted to Judge of the necessity
for the presence of the marine than any
one here.
PANAMA, Sept. 29. It Is said that Gen
eral Fernandez, the minister of war, bas
rejected tho new peace terms offered by
the liberal party. There have been no

cer from the train at Empire station. This
city Is now comparatively quiet.

GEORGE B. CORTELYOU.
Secretary to the President.
11 a. m.. September 29.
Surgeon General Rtxey of the navy, Sur
geon General O'Reilly of the army, Dr.
Schaeffer, tbe bone specialist from New
York, and Dr. Lung were present when tha
wound was dressed. They were at tha
temporary White House about three-quarters
of an hour. The slight rise In tem
perature noted yesterday, before the second
operstlon, had disappeared this morning
and this was considered especially favorable
by tbe physicians.
The physicians insist today that the con
dition of tho president's wound gives no
occasion for alsrm. The president him
self continues cheerful and seemingly re
gards the wound as a trivial matter. Tba
fact that a second operation was neces
sary evidently caused considerable appre
hension in the public mind, as the number
of callers who stopped at tbs temporary
White House was larger than on any pre
vious dsy since the president returned to
Washington. A goodly number of tele
grams also were received. To all reassur
ing replies were sent.
Among the callers today only Governor
Crane, Secretary Root and Postmaster Oen
eral Payne were admitted to the president's
bed room. Governor Crane was with tbe
president when the accident occurred at
Plttsfleld. His visit wss a personal one.
so it was said at the White House, and
without political significance. Dr. Schaef
fer will remain here severel days.
The president bas psssed an uneventful
day remaining moat of lbs time in bis wheel
chslr, by which means be was able to be
moved to various parts of tbe room. To
night be Is reported to be progressing sat
isfactorily. There were no visitors during
the afternoon or evening, except Dr. Lung,
the regular White House physician, who
made his usual call. Dr. Newton M. Shaffer,
the New York bone specialist, who came
down yesterday at the president's request
and Joined the other physicians In their
consultation prior to the operation, returned
to New York this afternoon. No arrange
ments were made for another visit from tbe
doctor.
Misses Alice and Ethel Roosevelt Joined
tbe president snd bis wife at the White
House tonight, the former coming front
Tuxedo park and the latter from Oyster Bay.
