WAR AFFECTS TEA AND RICE
Edmo-Japanese T.oublei Tend ts Advance

ket Throaahoot the
toss try.
Ts. drinkers should not foret that evry
Urn the Japanese gunners punch ths Rus
slsn meal tltket the tea drinkers help to
pay the expense. Eters of rice also should
create a pinking fund not for sinking Ilus
aian men-of-war, but to enable them to
buy rice at war prices.
According to B. K. Weaver of Vaxton A
Gallagher and other tea men, fully three
fourths of the tea handled by Omaha Job
ber In Japanese tea. The greater part
of the other fourth comes from China, with
a small amount brought over from Ceylon
bjr Mr. Upton s Shamrocks. There is said
to be no particularly large amount of tea
In stors now In the United States. The
new crop comes In during July. Prices al
ready -have been advanced slightly on the
old tea to the Jobbing houses, according to
the tea department men, but the Omaha
houses have not yot made an advance to
the retailers. The advance, however, Is
being 'made by Jobbers everywhere and the
local' houses soon will fall In line. The
war will, immediately affect the handling
and marketing of the new crop, and If It
continue the entire Industry will be greatly
Interfered with. This withdrawal of men
from the production will Increase the price
of the article. Then the Japanese may be
loroed to place an export duty on tea in
order to raise money for Immediate use.
This, however, according to a resident of
the Orient who was in Omaha last week,
is Improbable.
Chaace for Ceylon and China,
"Tea la one. of the principal exports of
Japan and an export duty would make It
so expensive that an opportunity would be
given the Ceylon and Chinese growers to
step In and permanently alienate the
trade," he said. "If China should become
Involved, tea would - become priceless.
There Is no particular difference In quality
between the Japanese and Chinese teas.
Ceylon tea Is sold by Omaha Jobbers to
some extent In Utah and other western
country, but In this part of their terri
tory only In the cities, while the out-of-town
merchants have demand only for the
Chinese and Japanese.
"The advance In rice affects this markot
rather Indirectly," said C. O. Bcott, buyer
for Pax ton & Oallaglier. "Only a small
amount of the tic used here Is Japanese.
The Paclflo coast uses a great deal of Ori
ental lice, however, and If the war con
tinue any time at all this supply will be
cut off. Then the western states will draw
heavily on the Oulf rice belt and rice will
advance In price. Already an advance of
from one-fourth to three-eighths of a cent
haa been made to us, and while the Jobbers
have not yet made the advance to their
customers, this will be done at onoe. Rice
before this advance was the lowest It ha
ever been. I think It 1 Vk-cent lower than
It actual value. Among the reason for
thl Is that while the south usually ha a
wet harvesting time, last season there wu
exceptionally fair weather. The rioe wu
harvested In a few week and, coming; on
the market at one time, elevator were
swamped and the rice was thrown out at
any prlo. Ths large number of new rice
fanner In Texas form another cause. They
bar) not the capita) of older established
men and must market their crop at onoe,
I will not venture a guess at the price rice
will reach, but I will say that the house I
buying) all the rtce It can get,"

UNION STILL HAS RESTAURANT
Manhattan Buy Antlers and. End
Lltlratloa Between Latter and
It Employes.
Another chapter In the vicissitude of the
Antlers restaurant on Douglas street was
brought to a close yesterday afternoon, and
permanently ends the upa and downs of
that much troubled establishment.
The Antlers was started nearly a year
ago by the allied unions of waiters, bar
keepers and one or two other minor or
ganizations, to be run as a strictly union
eating house. Only union men and women
were employed, and for a tew weeks all
went well. Then It was found the venture
wasn't paying, and finally In June the busi
ness was turned over to the persons who
had been fumlshlngr the materials for the
hash and other edibles. This left thirteen
persons, union employes of the place, minus
salary due In sums that varied from '$106
to $5.75.
Right hero is where the plot began to
thicken. The total sum due the restaurant
force waa $429, and falling to get any sottle-
tnent with the head union the unlucky thlr-
een placed the matter in the hands of At
torney L. J. Plattl and four suits were
brought. The main organisation employed
John O. Yelser to defend Its Interests and
both sides squared about for the fray.
Judgment was rendered for the four plain
tiffs, and more of the cases were about to
be tiiod when matters were simplified by
the purchase by the Manhattan restaurant
management of all that was left of the
Antlers.
Then came a proposition from the union
to settle the waiters' clulms for $350, or
about 46 per cent, when the costs that have
thus far been made are counted In.
It was announced by the plaintiffs' at
torney that this propooltlon would doubl
ings be accepted If the union would consent
to pay the costs that have been made and
otherwise not. H. C Edwards, walking
delegate for the union, announced that It
was a case of ' Hobeon's choice with the
alters, as they must take what Is offered
them or nothing, as the union has no other
money with which to pay them. This claim
Is denied by the waiters, who say the union
has received mors than enough money from
outside sources to pay every claim In full.
But It Is a fact that, without regard to the
tangle between the union and the waiters,
the management of the Manhattan restau
rant la In possession of the Antlers and
will proceed to ootid uct It as a union eutab
lishment.
D. 0. MILLS ENROUTE TO WEST
Hmt York Capitalist aid Friends oa
Their Way to the Paclflo
Coast.
D. O. Mill, the New York capitalist, for
merly of San Francisco and one of the old-
time officers of the Southern Faclflo and
associate of Colls P. Huntington, passed
through Omaha yesterday afternoon enroute
from New York to his old home on the
Pacific coast. He was accompanied by a
party of friends. Mr. Mills Is the father
In-law of Whltelaw Held, editor of the
New York Tribune and former republican
nominee for vice preident.
California Is the recipient of a strikingly
handsome and costly gift from Mr. Mills.
Entering the magnificent state capltol
building at Sacramento one Is confronted
by an Imposing llfe-slse statue of Queen
Isabella and Columbus, the latter with ihe
globe In his hand kneeling before the
Spanish ruler presenting hi plan for the
discovery of the new continent. The statue
Is carved In one piece of beautiful Italian
marble and la faultless In lu workmanship.
It was bought by Mr. Milts In New York
at an auction sale for $75,0u0 and by him
presented to the state of .California.
Mr- Mills was once provident of on of
California' largest banks.

ATTER WILL NOT CERTIFY TO DOCUMENT
Holds Its Legality In Donbt and
City: Ena-ineer Rosewater
Charges Ultimate Fraud
and Litigation.
Extensive amendments desired by ths
majority members of the Board of Public
Works to the paving specifications prepared
by City Knglncer Kosewater were adopted
yesterday at a session of the board
lasting two hours. The changes were made
against the protest of Chairman Rone-
water and City Attorney Wright, and the
lattor said he would not and could not
certify as to the legal correctness of the
document after It had been altered. All
the deviations which the contractors fa.
vored, and which Lobeck and Wlthnell
have been clamoring for, wore Injected.
As was the oase last Week, the meeting
abounded In personalities, accusation and
assertions as to tho hand the contractors
are playing. The majority of the board had
the amendments tabulated and announced
the patched-up document will be sent to
the couauU tonight for approval or rejec
tion.
In the rlfanges the technical knowledge
of the engineer, who is ex-ofliclo chairman
of the board, is subordinated and the
board of three named as the arbiter and In
terpretor of all questions, also for the de
termining of the quantity and quality of
materials and efficiency of workmanship,
notwithstanding the fact that the board
cannot accept or approve work without the
certificate of the engineer.
Sandstone ana Granite.
Competition for stone pavements Is re
stricted to sandstone and granite, ths ma
jority of the board pretending to find that
the charter authorizes this latitude and no
more, despite the flat statement of City
Attorney Wright that It Is not true and
that even the most technical of courts
could not possibly so hold. Colorado sand-
atone, about the only sandstone that can
be sold In Omaha cheap enough to find a
market, is said to be controlled by a local
contractor, who is said also to have a prac
tical monopoly on the granite business.
As City Engineer Rosewater pointed out.
the tpeulncatlons bur Sioux Falls stone
and many other kinds.
The engineer's asphalt specifications were
stricken out altogether and alleged "Wash
ington" specifications substituted. The en
glneer pointed out that even these plans
are not followed out, one and a half-Inch
binder being named in place of one Inch
and ths authority and Jurisdiction of ths
engineer being abridged. A five-Inch bass
of Portland cement Is changed to a six-Inch
base of natural or American cement.
Block for Roelc Asphalt.
Specifications for rock asphalt, which ths
engineer declares Is the only means for ob
taining competition with sheet asphaltum.
are stricken out snd In their place "asphalt
block" Is substituted. This, the engineer
says. Is too expensive and the sources of
supply too remote to warrant an attempt
to use It in Omaha Specifications for bitu
minous asphalt, or bltullthlc pavement, are
cast out altogether, although Contractor
Qrant admitted ha could bid under them.
For macadam the thickness of class "B"
is changed frutn eight to seven Inches at
the request of a contractor, no provision
made for aubdratnuge, and requirements
made that rolling shall be with a roller
having a pressure of 460 pounds to the
lineal Inch, Instead of by a fifty-ton roller,
as the engineer proposed. For ths founda
tlons and grading fur all pavementa a five
ton roller Is named In place of the ten-ton
machine deemed beet by the engineer.

You fe, the patent medicine fellows (at
the solicitation or URGENT IkEgUEUT of
the drug trust) told wjnie ii the daily
papers that they would cut out their ad
verting If they (the pupers) continued
"to let that Schaefer sIuhIi the price of
their goods In his ads." So, you see, we
don't use a much opace a ths patent
medicine fellows and therefore our ads or
theirs had to be killed, so we told them
to go on with their killing; we would run
our business our way. and everybody else
has tho same privilege, as far as wa are
concerned.
No! If you want the latest and lowest
cuts on anything In the drug, patent msd-l'-lne,
family llyuor, chemical, pharma
ceutical, rubber goods or anything else In
a drug store, send us a Hut for prices,
not catalogues.
