Mayor Moorrs In explaining why he can
celled the closing order, said: "It is done
Jn view of the fact that a practical truce
has been declared between the Business
Men's association and the labor unions:
that the city Is In a state of quiet and good
order and that tho laboring men have
proven their self-control by preserving the
liea re for three days.
Before revoking the order I took great
pains to Investigate the conditions and I
was assured by both the saloon men and
the officers of fourteen labor unions that
both would exercise the greatest restraint
and effort to prevent turmoil and distur
bances of all kinds.
"The -labor leaders have placed them
selves under an obligation to Veep thing
quiet and to let the strike remain In status
quo at least until the arbitration meeting
Monday night. This mean that the ten
sion has been relieved and that the crisis
either Is passed or postponed until next
week.
"Under these circumstances and with
these promlpes I have decided to try the
strikers and see if they can live up to their
word to abstain from acts of vlolenc and
breaches of tho peace under, the ordinary
conditions that exist In Omaha."
Statement for Liquor Dealers.
A. G. Stephana, chairman of tho commit
tee of the liquor dealers' association, made
the following statement for that organi
sation last night:
"We promised the mayor that we would
cJoee- our places of business at a moment"!
notice whenever he considered that, the
emergency to warrant luch action had
arisen. We further promised the mayor
and the chief of police that when the emer
gency arises we will not only close our
places, but we will assist them In suppress
ing the sale of liquor by providing them
with Informal Ion as to any place that may
violate the order, whether It be saloon,
drug store or other place. Our association
is in a position to discipline any member
who falls to keep Its obligations, even to
the extent of expelling him. Our members
are law-abiding citizens and I don't thing
any of them would violate an order from !
the authorities, but we propose to see to
It that people who are not members of our
organisation alBo respect the official or
ders. Our. committee reported to the as
sociation or the results of our conference
with the mayor and the association voted
unanimously to ratify the pledges made to
the mayor,"
Expressmen Mast Have Licenses..
License Inspector Scott yesterday after
fiocn Issued a goneral notice that all per
sons engaged In the express, transfer and
drayage business must procure licenses by
Saturday night or they will be arrested
and the penalty for the violation of the or
dinance enforced.
, The annual license for expressmen Is $1
a year and the total number Issued In ItOl
was about 300. This year, although the
permit are required to be taken out Jan
uary 1, only about 200 have compiled with
the regulations. This number Includes the
large tranifer companies, now tied up by
the teamsters' strike.
However the Immediate cause for the
notice Is the fact that since the tleup of
the big transfer llnea many Individual
with wagons and teams have been filling
the emergency and reaping a considerable
business despite the vigilant efforta exer
cised by the teamsters' pickets.
Now that the restraining Injunction viti
ates the plans of the union to keep non
union drivers from doing business the In
tlnerant "Junkers" and others drawn tem
porarily Into the transportation business
have a free rein. They have rendered them
selves subject to the license regulations,
however, and must either procure the au
thorised permit or quit doing business.

Shirt Waists in dainty lawns at $1.00 up
from that of Thursday. The teamsters are
at a standstill, having effected practically
a complete tie-up of their affaire, and the
freight handlers are gradually calling out
more of their men. President Nnst says
the men will be called out as fast as they
are required to handle goods hauled by
nonunion drivers. Those twenty-five who
truck at the Midland Glass & Paint com
pany yesterday morning did so because of
this reason. The freight handlers at Auau.M
ft Kelly's struck yesterday. The teamsters
there went out the day before.
The coal dealers are still making little
effort to resume business, though In some
cases coal Is being sent out. Some of the
coal dealers are meeting with difficulty In
getttlng drivers, while others are getting
more drivers than they can use. Most
of them feel that It would be unsafe to send
out drivers and are holding off for that
reason.
"We are not sending out any teams at
all," said J. A. Sunderland, "because we
uon i want to risa our Old men or new
ones to the assault!' that might be made
probably not while the drivers were on
the wagons, but after they had left their
work. It Is but natural that we should feel
this fear for our men, because we have
seen by former strikes of this kind that
It Is not the safest thing In the world to
expose teamsters.
"Our customers may be suffering for
coal, but they certainly are very generous
about It. They have assured us that they
will get alonj some how and for us to go
ahead and fight out this case as best we
can. showing that their sympathy la with
us. We are convinced that the employers
have public sympathy In this controversy."
Freight Congestion Serious.
But few more transfer wagons are at
work than were Thursday', , but It Is ex
pected that by a few more days many will
be on the streets, ' as the transfer men
have launched an effort to Import non
union drivers, as was stated In The Bee
yesterday morning. Some of the wholesale
houses have co-operated with the transfer
men to the extent of furnishing drivers
for them. The congestion of freight la
serious and every effort will be made to
relieve It But while this Is being done
the other obstacle presented in the In
action of the freight handlers on being
required to work with nonunion teamsters
Is encountered.
No violence of any kind has come to light
The sheriff has sworn in sixty deputies
to start with and they went out yesterday
morning, each squad being under the di
rection of an experienced member of the
police force. Chief Donahue and Sheriff
Power Are working-hand In hand. They,
with their corporal forcoa. and the gov
ernor and mayor, with their moral suasion,
expect to fully conquer the situation, es
pecially since the strikers contend that
they will offer no overt resistance and af
ford chance for any call to arms or ar
rests. The strikers say they are ready to
contribute every possible effort to an
amicable settlement, through arbitration
or any other medium that may be decided
on. The Idea Of federal or state troops
seems to have been completely lost.
The waiters are unchanged In their sit
uation, except that they are extending
their picket lines to one more restaurant
that opened Friday with a small force
of nonunion waiters. It is the Rookaway
at 1116 Douglas street operated by John
O. Dennis. '
Sheriff's Special force.
Yesterday Sheriff Power appointed
slxy special deputy sheriff! from a num
ber of men who had been recommended by
representatives of the Business Men's as
sociation and unlona involved In the strike.
One man In addition to this was appointed,
h commission man In the wholesale district
who made personal application early In the
morning.
The men were heat Into the wholesale
district and In place where frlotlon be
tween the contending forces might be ex
pected. Each squad of ten special reputles
was placed under the Immediate super
vision of one regular police officer, and that
officer Instructed by the sheriff to see that
the men did their duty and In case of fail
ure or refusal to obey Instruction!' to re
move his star and send him to the iherlff i
office.
The pay of the special deputy iherlffi will
be 12 per day, to be paid by the county, so
at this time the cost to the county by rea
son of the strike Is ia per day. It was
said at 11 : o'clock that more special depu
ties would be appointed during the after
noon until the number waa lufficlent to
meet aU demands. (

MONTREAL., May . A conference be
tween ' Sir William Mulock, ' minister of
labor, and representatives of the shipping
Interests last night 1ms not as yet borne
fruit. He did not. find time to meet the
'longshoremen and the proposition was
postponed until today.
The grain situation Is becoming alarming
as the result of the strike. There are
millions of bushels Of grain now In barges
alongside the various ocean vessels wait
ing to be transferred and millions more are
on the way from the west for ocean ship
ment. The Board of Trade hns asked the
mayor to call on the district officer com

Mullock announced last night that the Do

J. O. O'Neill of Duluth. who
Is conducting tho 'longshoremen's
strike as the representative of the Interna

statement attributed to Raymond Prefon
talne, minister of marine and fisheries, thr.t
he, O'Neill, had Informed him that so f:ir
as he was concerned the strike was over
and they were ready to give In. Instead of
the strike being practically over, O'Neill
declared today, It had only Just begun, and
that the men would stick to it till they ob
tained their rights.
Australian Railroad Tied t p.
MELBOURNE, Victoria, May 8. All the
railroads of Victoria which are slate-owned
are tide up because of a curious dispute
between the government and the railroad
employes regarding the right of the latter
to affiliate . themselves with he Victoria
trades hall, the headquarters of trades
unionism In this colony. The employes of
me railroads are practically civil servants
and the government claims that In case of
a strike in other trades affiliated with the
trades hall the railroad men would be
obliged to strike In sympathy and there
fore the government has notified the rail
road men that unless they withdraw from
tne trades hall before May 11 they will be
dismissed. The Engineers' association re
plied that unless the government with
drew its notification before 6 o'clock this
evening they would strike at midnight and
leave their locomotive! wherever they hap
pen to be.
The ultimatum failed of effect and the
men carried out their program to the let
ter. The government has guaranteed
double wages for two months to nonstrlk
ers and has notified the men that they will
lose their pensions If they strike. About
11,000 railroad men are involved In the dis
pute. Picketing- still Illegal.
LONDON, May 8. -The House of Com
mons today by 246 to 226 rejected th trades
disputes bill. Intended to legalize peaceful
picketing and alter the law affecting the
liability of trades unions' funds. Premier
Balfour and other ministers opposed the
bill and promised that a royal commission
would be appointed to inquire Into the
whole proposition of .trades unionism as
affected by decisions In the recent Taff
Vale and similar cases.

w ASHINQTON, May' 8. -The postofflce
Investigation took a sensational turn this
afternoon, when by order of Postmaster
ueneral Payne, Atnrust W. Machen. sen
cral superintendent of the free delivery

office Inspector M. C. Fosnes was given

The change will- take effect tomorrow.

lu Pomce patrons., particularly on rural
routes, and the appointment of carriers.
There also has been a conflict between
Mr. Machen and Mr. Wynne ever since
the latter assumed office. Mr
chargta Mr. Machen with Insubordination.
The strained relations between the head of
the free delivery service and other nfHrioi.
resulted In an embarrassing state of affaln
..u .r several months correspondence be
tween the general superintendent of the
free delivery service and hi Im.Hi.t-
superior, the first assistant postmaster gen
eral has been conducted on the part of
'"rough one of his subordinates.
Mr. Brlstow all along has been of the
opinion that the best Interests of the ser
vice would bo subserved by the relief. of
Mr. Machen and has pointed out to the
postmaster general that that action was
Imperatively necessary, to the successful
conduct of the Investigation.
One of the plans under consideration In
connection with the reorganization of the
uepanment Is to keep the rural free de
Ivery service permanently under the Jur
isdiction of the fourth assistant postmsster
general, leaving the regular free delivery
service In Its forrner Jurisdiction, that of
the firet assistant postmaster general.
Postmaster General' Payne explains that
any rearrangement of duties will hinge
largely upon .the result of the investiga
tion. Mr. Fosnes is one of the best known
Inspectors fn the service.' He Is chief as
sistant of Mr, BrJstow In the Investiga
tion, lie li a native of Norwsy, where he
was born In 1851, and bis home Is Des

Manila Wall to Stand.
The proposed destruction about the city
of Manila has brought out a protest from
a number of patriotic societies In this coun
try and, and after considering the matter
the secretary of . war has given instruc
tions to Governor Taft not to disturb the
walls. The removal of a smajl portion of
the wall, so the commerce would be bene
fited was contemplated, but even to this
Secretary . Root' objects. Manila ll now the
only "walled city" in the Orient and It
Is Secretary Root's Intention to have it
preserved. It Is quite likely that the moat
outside the wall will be filled up as a
sanitary measure.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., May 8. (Special.)
Charlea O. Sprenger of the Ranch News,
Denver, v.ho has Just completed a trip
through northwestern Nebraska and east
ern Wyoming, Is here today enroute home.
His observations In Cheyenne, Kimball and
Banner counties, Nebraska, confirm the re
port of heavy stock losses during the last
winter, and It has developed that the own
era are taking their losses quite philo
sophically. There Is not one that does not
acknowledge short-sightedness In prepara
tions for the wlner. Such as did appreciate
the possibilities of raising stock feed, while
In the minority, came through the winter
in first-class shape without losses and are
now being praised by their less fortunate
fellowi for having tested the possibilities
of the soil In raising feed for their stock.
The result is, says Mr. Sprenger, that
this spring a greater acreage Is being
plowed. Kaffir corn, millet, sugar beet and
