The matter did not come up until late la

get building material over tbe roads it
onslgned to Omaha.
A third delegate reported that grocers
and butchera had notified men that after
May 1 credit would be suspended until
after all labor troublea are aettled.
After tbe matter bad been threshed over
lor an hour It waa decided that all Inter

men out of town until the trouble is set'
tied.
The arbitration committee waa given
power to act, being increased by the ad

A delegate from the bartendera' union
reported that W. J. Broatch had personally
secured the discharge ot a member of the
union for expressing his preference tor
' mayor previous to the republican prlmar
lea, but that the union bad aecured the

ultimatum served on tbe Nebrsska Telephone company by the union, aa to exchangee,
and In ajolnlng column, just what the company la paying, hours ot work and custom
aa to men employed.
It will be aeen that practically no differences exist aa to boura ot work or wagea

how they ahall work.
The Telephone company will at any time take up any question of wagea or houra
ot labor with its employes of any class and treat It In a fair and liberal spirit, but
so far no complaint baa been made by any ot them. At the aame time the company
claims that'ln order to handle ita business properly It must reserve the right to select
Ita own employee, and direct their work, its claim being: "No person shall be refused
employment, or in any way discriminated against on account ot membership or non
membership in any labor organisation; and there ahall be no discrimination against

work for the year past and discussed plana
for future operatlona. During the twelve
months covered by the reports much good
work haa been accomplished, and those
most Intimately connected with tbe mis
sloa feel that their efforts have been amply
repaid in the good done amcng the peopUs
whom It la hoped to reach. In thla year
the building occupied by tha mission on
Tenth street, between Dodge and Capitol
avenue, with the land it atanda on, haa
beta purchased and the officers and trustees
have had the double burden of raising the
necessary expenses tor each day and ot
laying aside the fund for the building. In
the future the work will be easier for all
hands and It may be possible to branch
out In new lines ot work later In the year.
For tha twelve months ending April 13.
$3,432.59 waa received by contribution,
$824,10 coming from the young people's
societies of the various churches and $2,076
being donated by Individuals. Of the total

building and Improvement fund, and ot this
$2,520.18 waa expended. The year's run
ning cost wts $917.45 tor all departmenta
and there la now on hand $214.96; $181.92
of thla being In the building fund. Of tho
money pledged $95 la atill unpaid.
During thla time 355 goeeel meetings
Lavs been held, with aa average attendance
of twenty, these resulting In tha conversion
ot twenty-live. The Sabbath school had
fifty-two sessions, with an enrollment ot
aeventy-flvs and an average .attendance of

About thirty retail merchants met In the
parlors at tbe South Omaha rlub Wednesday
night for the purpose ot perfecting an or
ganizatlon to protect their ovu iimesis.
Those present represented the retail gro
cers and a number of other lines. Eighteen
merchants signed the roll after a temporary
organization had been perfected.
One of the members ot the new order.
mention of which waa made In The Bee
early In the week, said last night to a re
porter that the idea waa to put a stop to
the aelllng of commodttlea ot all kinds to
those who are known to be alow in paying
bills. A committee on membership was
appointed and another meeting will be held
on tha evening of April 23.
The following resolution was adopted:
Whereas, a bill for an act relating to ex
emption had parsed both the senate and
house of representatives of the state of
iNeorasKa, and wnereaa eald bill provided
for a reasonable protection for the retail
merchant from the deadbeat, the cheat
and the fraud, and was a measure favor
able to the honest man, and would If en
acted Into law have greatly eliminated
that undesirable class of citizens commonly
known as deadbeats and promote honeety
and uprighteousness among society; and.
V hereas, Oovernor Mickey has seen fit
to aid and abet dishonesty by vetoing S.
F. K7. when the merchants had everv rea
son to believe that be would do otherwise.
Resolved, mat we, the South Omaha Re
tail Dealers' In regular meeting assem
bled, condemn said action of the governcr,
and call upon all buslnene men to do like
wise, and ask their assistance to retire
Mr. Mickey as aoon as possible.
Resolved, That a copy of thee resolu
tions be sent to the governor and given
to the public press.
Improvements at the Yarda.
Cars of brick are dally being unloaded in
South Omaha for uae at Swlft'a and the
Union stock yards. At Swlft'a 63.000 brick
have been ordered for repavlng the alleys
from the cattle pena to the abattoirs. This
work at Swlft'a Is now going on and tbe
laying of the pavement will be pushed as
rapidly aa the material arrives.
At the stock yards General Manager Ken
yon haa ordered 2,000,000 paving brtct, and
these are on the way. The brljg will be
used In paving alleys, hog and cattle pena,
and also in the pena to be built this sum
mer. The work of laying this pavement at
the yarda will be under the direction of
W. S. King, chief engineer of the com
pany.
On account of the hod carriers and plas
terers' strike the directors of the Union
Stock Yarda company decided at a recent
meeting to stop all work on the proposed
wing to the Exchange building. Some work
on thla structure haa already been done,
but the directors thought it best to shut
down on account of the fact that material
ia acarce and that it might take some time
to aettle the present labor troublea.
Work on the Temple building la still
suspended and plasterers all over the city,
even on small Jobs, have quit. Building
and repairs are at a standstill and those
who claim to be acquainted with the situa
tion assert that a aettlement of the present
difficulties will hardly be reached before
