NO NEW LOCOMOTIVES ARRIVE I'llis Paella Strike; Pclat to Pact z I mm mm Elomeat la Their Favor. Union Pacific strikers are wblllng away many quiet momenta theae day during th low progress of the Injunction hearing In , th federal court. Little I moving Outside A - of tht hearing, but the strikers are trudg ing away at their affair, maintaining their picket line, their financial bureaus, tend ing out their daiiy bulletins to faithful ai ! Ilea along the line and awearlng their de- i termination to "never say die." The strikers are pointing to the failure of the Union Pacific' new engine to arrive aa an element In their favor. Tbey atlll contend that the company' motive power 'j to fast declining, despite repeated state ments from officials that It la not, and bold M that without the new quota of engine Mr Burt will soon be forced to the wall. But that la merely the strikers' view. - President Burt and other t'nlon Paclflo ' etfiolals eipreaa different idea about the v aame thing.

Nearly every seat In the First Congrega tional church was taken last night at the lecture of Ira W. Howerth. Ph. D.. the first of the series of twelve to be glvn periodically this tall and winter on modern social problems under the extenMon sys tem of the University of Chicago. Dr. Howerth spoks upon "The Social Question of Today," saying. In part: The social question presents a double as pect In .he firet place, there Is a genera! social quertion which Is merely the eternal pioblem of economic and moral progrens leading to btter and better eocinl condi tions, the solution of which. If Indeed we may rpeak of a solution of an ever present problem, depends upon the continuance of material i.rogrees. or the subjection of na ture, and the gradual Improvement of human personalities. The social question of today, or, the so cial question of any given time. Is the question of social welfare pressing most strongly for solution. That qjemion will always be found to be a problem of re stricting the opportunities of organized selfishness. 6elflhness Is general, and It Is an Illusion to suppose that one clans of society Is altogether virtuous and heroic, while another is moved only by the spirit of narrowness and greed. When, in the sixteenth century, Martin Luther and his asoctates rebelled against the authority of the church, they were en gaged In a movement which finally resulted 4n securing for the people a greater degree of religious freedom; that Is the social question as a rellirlouB question was prac tically solved. AVhlle much still remains to be done in the way of securing for the people freedom of thojght and action In rllglous matters, this particular phase of the aoclal question Is no lonser dominant. After the Reformation the people soon found out that the same opportunities for selfish domination that had been enjoyed by those In control of ecclesiastical Insti tutions were afforded those who were In control of the state. The crosier of the ecclesiastic had merely transformed Itself Into the scepter of the political ruler. For two centuries and a half the struggle of the people was for a share In the govern ment. The social question was a political question. This question, however, was nominally solved, so far as the people of tM roi.r.fry arc concerned, by the Revolu tion and the Declaration of Independence. The social question Is consequently no longer primarily a political question. Political liberty having been achieved, where Is now the great opportunity for selfish domination? Obviously it lies with that clasa of persons who have secured control of the great Industrial forces of our nation and have entrenched themselves behind rhe economic Institutions upon which the welfare of society so largely depends. The social question cf today, therefore. Is chiefly an Industrial or econo mic question. It is the problem of re stricting the power of wealth and of ae curlng for the people a higher degree of economic freedom. It Is useless to talk of an tdentitv of In terests between the laborer and the cap- i(aiiei. i nere is no- sincr loentrrv inn those who claim It are the victims of loose thinking, or are unconsciously biased by inwr uwn immcuiaie inieresis. FINDS MILK FREE OF POISON Ckeaalst Searches la Vala for Caasc of Cathbertaoa Family's Arcldrat. Th bottle of milk from which the mem ber of the family of E. A. Cuthbertaon drank 8unday morning, at which time all were taken violently III, wa chemically analyzed yesterday and th chemist found no ptomaine or fermentative products that would have produced the results experienced by tha Cuthbertson family. The milk ha not been tested for Incrganio potaon. Thia will be done today.. The belief that it waa the Intention of aome one to murder the entire family wa strengthened yesterday by the finding of a portion of a wrapper from a bog of rat poison. Thia waa found by tho police after a careful search of the house. No member of the family knew how the wrapper cam to be In the house. The police are Inveatl gating thoroughly, and it 1 expected that some light will be thrown on the mystery la A short time. The member of the family who were taken 111 are cow out of danger, though Mr. E. A. Cuthbertaon I still very weak.

SALARIES OF CITY OFFICIALS ARE TARDY First Saloonkeeper Tried for elllaa; Llqaor oat Bandar Is Aeqaltted by the Jory Manic tlty Gossip. It wa stated yesterday that the South Omaha Hospital association would bold a meeting within a few day to discuss fur ther plane In relation to the erection of a new hospital or the securing of more com fortable quarters for it. The building that Is now being occupied by the association has proven unsatisfac tory to the majority of the hospital board. nd the women who comprise this board ay they will put up with almost any kind of a building ao long as they can make a change from where they now are. They state that the item of fuel alone In the present building Is an Important one, and that some change will be made without fait before cold weather eel In. 'But where are we to go." asked one of the members of the board last evening. We have discussed this matter so many mes and have contemplated so many dif ferent buildings that we are at a loss to know which one to decide upon renting. It was stated for awhile that some of the real estate men of the city would put up a building for us If we would enter Into a lease for a considerable length of time, but th rent asked for inch a building ould be out of the question for us to pay. aa would be tbe rent on aome of the build ups already offered to us." It I thought that an effort will be made to Interest the packing house tn the mat ter of securing a new location, and even the railroads will be asked to assist. There as always been a strong objection urged against the building and tb location of the hospital aa it now exists, but it la thought that If a reasonable proposition Is pre sented to these corporations that tbey will co-operate with tbe association In securing quarter that will prove both satisfactory nd convenient. Mar Be Shy oa Salary. It was stated yesterday that the officers of th city may be required to wait another month before any of thm will have an op portunity to draw their salary. Several of the rouncllmen have openly stated that there would be no meeting of the council next Monday night, the regular monthly meeting night, and that it waa a grave question as to Just when the council would meet. There seems to be a clash In the council on the question of meeting, several of the members refusing to agres on a spe cial meeting for allowing salaries without ransactlng business tn general, and the bal ance refusing to meet for tbe purpose of discussing ' general business matter per taining to tbe city government. That Telephone Fraachlso. Whether the council will give the new Independent telephone company the author ity to submit to the voter of the city the question of the granting of a new franchise for the erection of an Independent .tele phone plant In South Omaha I unanswer able at this time. The provision of the harter which govern auch proceeding Imply saya that if S per cent of the voters ef th city remonstrate against th grant ing of a telephone franchise that it can only then be granted upon a majority vote of those cast upon such proposition.- Tha tel ephone people state that the question will be up to tbs voter at this election, while th opposition have nothing to sty on the ubject. Mike Kelly's Lack. Mike Kelly, a well known laborer at one of the packing house, received word last Monday that he had Inherited an estate of more than 15,000. and accompanying fhe letter wan a check for $100. Kelly Is said to have atarted out with th money on his person, when he wss beguiled Into a saloon and there robbed. The police state that they recovered (55 of his money. With this he will Immediately start for bis old home n Canada. City looses Flrat Case. Dennis Cushlng. the first of the men to be tried on the charge of selling liquor on Sunday, waa yesterday acquitted by a Jury in the police court. Although many of the cases were Instituted two months ago, none had ever come to trial until yesterday. When the cases were reached Monday aft ernoon, each of th men charged demanded a Jury, which waa granted. It Is stated that ne Jury acquitted CusMng on tbe first ballot. Tbe case of John Krlolskl, a saloon keeper at Thirty-third and L street, waa to have been tried yesterday afternoon. but as the daughter of Krlolskl died dur ing the day, th case was continued by the assistant city attorney until one week from yesterday. . Money Still oa Haad. Prom the statement compiled by City Clerk 8. .C. Shrlgley It appear that the city still haa soms money on hand. Tb amount of ths levy for 1902 was 1133.655, while there waa a balance on hand from 1&01 of t5,06. Up to October 1 warrant to the amount of $$5,177 have been drawn.

The fund for curb and pavement repair work haa been completely exhausted. Waltlaar fr Beaches. Tha police court official are still anx iously awaiting the action of tbe council In tbe proposed purchase of the benches for use In the police court room. Two months ago th council adopted th resolution pro viding for ths placing of suitable beaches in this room, but since that time no one seem to have been able to determine Just whoa duty it waa to buy them. There ar about two doten chairs In the court room, but bar ring these. It has no other ssatlng facil ities. Mania City Gossip. Mrs. Charles E.

Neptune Everett, true to the watery tra ditions of ths family, plunged beneath the amber, flood of the Missouri last night from off the slag dump of the Omaha and Grant smelter at the foot of Davenport street.

A Remedy Which Has Revolot ioalsed tho Trratntit of Stomach Troablea. Tbe remedy Is not heralded aa a wonder ful discovery nor yet a secret patent medi cine, neither Is It claimed to cure anything except dyspepsia, indigestion and stomach troubles with which nine out of ten suffer. The remedy is In tha form of pleasant tasting tablets or losenges, containing vege table and fruit essences, pure aseptic pepsin (government test.) golden seal and diastase. The tablets are sold by druggists under the nam cf 8tuart'a Dyspepsia Tableta. Many Interesting experiments to test tbe digestive power of Stuart'a tableta abow that one grain of th active principle contained In them la sufficient to thoroughly digest 3,000 gralna of raw meat, ergs and other whole soms food. Stuart's Tablets do not act upon the bowels like after-dinner pills and cheap cathartics, which simply Irritate and In flame th intestines without having any ef fect whatever in digesting food or curing indigestion. It the stomach can b rested and assisted In the work ot digestion It will very soon recover It normal vigor, a no organ la ao much abused and overworked a tbe stom ach. This Is the secret, if there I any secret. of tb remarkable success of Stuart's D pepda Tablets, a remedy practically un known a few years ago and now tbe most widely known ot any treatment for stom ach weakness. This success ha been secured entirely upon its merits aa a digestive pure and simple because there can be no stomach trouble If tb food Is promptly digested. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets act entirely on th food oaten, digesting it completely, sa that It can be assimilated into blood, nerve ana tissue. Tbey euro dyspepsia, water brash, sour stomach, gas and bldatlng after meals, because tbsy furnish ths digestive power which weak atomtchs lark and unless that lack la supplied it is useless to attempt to cur by tha use of "tonics," "pills" and eat hart lea which have absolutely no diges tive power. Stuart' Dyspepsia Tablet ran be found at all drug stores and the regular us of oa or two of them after meals, will de monstrat their merit better than any other argumaau LIKE SUNDAY AT FORT RILEY Tuesday Night' Fierc. 8tnn Cam Pit pomf at of aCtitnrtTi. GENERAL REVIEW IS ALSO CALLED OFF Sanger f'onelode He Woa't Ask for It tader t'lrrasastaaces, Thoanh Soldiers Had Prepared Prwm laeat Visitors Arrive. FORT RILET, Kan.. Sept. SO. Deeper quiet even than prevails upon a Sunday existed throughout the day at Camp Root. The only eventa were tbe arrival at the ramp of Governor Stanley of Kansas aud late in the afternoon of Assistant Secretary of War Sanger and Brigadier General Car ter, the acting adjutant general of the army, who Inspected tbe camp. At day break this morning the groune wae in such a condition after the storm of last night that It would have been Impossible to carry out the day's program with much probability of success. The earth around Fort Riley Is of the character that be comes exceedingly difficult to maneuver upon unless dry. A little rain causes It to become so slippery that It is difficult for men and horses to keep their feet on slop ing ground unless moving with' caution, and rain converts it Into sticky gum that makes marching a performance utterly without redeeming features. General Bates determined last night to call off the program for today, and con ditions this morning proved the wisdom of bis course. Overhead it was a day difficult to rurpaes; under feet was a condition that could not be made worse. The roads have dried nicely, however, and everything points to favorable conditions for tomor row's v.ork. General Bates issued order in the morn ing for all commands to hold themselves In readiness for a review by the assistant secretary of war. If he should accept it. Consequently there wss much rubbing of metal and much cleaning of clothing and leather trappings throughout the day. In the middle of the sfternoon General Bates, accompanied by his aides. Captains Reeve and Wright, rode out to select a ground for the holding of the review. General Sanger, however, decided that the troops would have sufficient work without march ing out on review, and declined the honor offered him. Sanger and tarter Welcomed. General Sanger and General Carter were met at the train on their arrival by an es cort of cavalry and after being received by Colonel C C. C. Cart-, tbe commander or the military post of Fort Riley, rode out to Camp Root, where General Bates received them with the customary honors. A short reception was held, all of the leading offi cers at the camp calling to pay their re spects to Generals Sanger and Carter. The offlcere of the National guard were also pre sented. The invitation of General Batei tn 1inr th ramp w then accepted and after listening to a short concert by the band of the Eighteenth infantry General Bates and the assistant aecretary of war headed a long line of horsemen on their ride through the camp. They rode over the entire ground and both General Sanger and General Carter expressed themselves pleased with whst they saw. They will be the guests of General Bates at the maneu vers tomorrow. .An hour previous to the arrival of the distinguished army officers. Governor Stan ley of Kansas and party, mong whom were a number of women, called at General Batea' headquarters. The governor waa escorted to the camp by a squadron of cavalry and after a short stay at the headquarters of General Bates left to visit the camp of th men of the Kansas National guard. Here he waa received with all the honors of a commander-ln-cblef and spent several hours looking around. Tomorrow morning the war problem orig inally scheduled for today will be carried out. It will be tbe defense and attack of a convoy. The latter will be quit largs and Is expected to number fully 100 wagona. It Is expected that It will furnish one of the most Interesting maneuvers cf the series. This morning was occupied by a general discussion of the military problems that have already been worked out. Tbe commanding officers of the opposing lorces in ni-n uuo ui iuc wiuruirn rnu his report, the umpire's report wa read , B.d KeDera, exp,anaUoni ,nd a discussion followed. i The lyceum was conducted for th benefit or tne national guara oracers, wno were given every facility to acquire all possible information. Worst Storm for Years. Tbe storm which swept over Fort Riley last night was the worst that has been ex perienced here for several years. The wind blew a bowling gale, the rain fell in tor rent and the cold wa intense. Some of the National guard companies that arrived during the latter part ot the evening came in without equipage ot any kind, and but for the effort of Captain C. B. Baker, tbe camp quartermaster, many of tbem would have fared badly, vaptaln Baker, with his aa- istanta, labored in tbe storm until long after midnight and would not leave until everything possible had been done. Tbe quartermaster's department has looked after tbe comfort of tbe members of the National guard with the same as siduity that has been employed by General Batea, bis staff officers and the military umpires In rounding out their military edu cation. Lieutenant Colonel Raspahoff, tbe Russian military attache, arrived last night in the worst of tbe storm. He Is a soldier who has seen much actlvs service and at once gave evidence of his intention to see th bright side ot things. He looked around the camp as well ha he could, and In tbe Intense darkness .his vision might possibly extend ten feet, turned bis face toward tb leaky clouds snd said: "This is fine; this is bae-you-tl-tul. It is always nice to come to a camp in a rain." An infantry captain who heard it re marked: "A man who can say that on a night Ilk this and not choke on it 1 all right." Commissary General Weston haa also ar rived at the camp.
