NORTHWESTERN TAKES BACK
Recall Schedule Which Promised Eop of
Fair Coal Bates. .
SAYS IT WAS MERELY A CLERICAL ERROR
4al Dealer Declare Tbe-r I Another
neaeom ud Lore. I. I'eoale Still
Hop to Dre-ak th Dis
crimination. he slight hdpe advanced for a decrease
In the Omaha coal rate by the Northwest
ern'a new tariff, which Quote rat of
U.16 per ton from Iowa point to Lincoln
on alack, it seems, will hare to be aban
doned. Word ha been received at local
Northwestern headquarters that the new
tariff Issued by that line to apply from
Iowa point to Omaha would remain in
effect and th rate to Lincoln would be
raised to correspond with th tariff Issued
by other lines at once. . This will make the
Lincoln rate from points on the Northwest
ern in Iowa $1.30 per ton on alack.
Local oal dealers say the new tariff
quoting rate of IL18 to Lincoln will have
to remain in efleot until August 28, as the
Interatato Commerce commission will not
allow It withdrawal until that data under
.5a the provision of th. Interstate commerce
law, which provides that ten days' notice
must be given before rat can b ad'
vunccd. Thl ton day' time. It 1 asserted
v 1 the beat informed dealer, will glv
npl Uiue for a concerted attack to be
j j, ffia.au upon in new. mmi, wniuu it ua-
luevea wm result in n rrBiumuuu ui
rates. .. ;
Not only has the intention of th North'
western to advance the Lincoln rate been
announced by that line, but other railroads
converging In th city have received notice
from Chicago that a promise has bean e
cured from Northwestern officials that the
new tariffwill ' be forthcoming at one
The message received at Northwestern
headquarter states that th rat of U-M
would hav been made effective to Lincoln
in the ' tariffs- Already- Issued but for an
oversight in making up the schedule.
Deeper ltenaon thavu That.
The coal men ay there 1 a deeper rea
son than t&l for making the rates, lower
than Jhoso -agreed upon, for th reason
that not only was the Lincoln rate left
it cent lower than that quoted by other
line, buy the. rate to surrounding towns
quoted in the same tariff also are 16 cents
lower than they should be under the agree
ment. '.'
There la a rumor that th consumers of
Omaha who have been taking a lively in
terest in the matter hav a card up their
sleeves which ha not" yet been played,
and the rumor ha it that the publication
of the Lincoln tariff la a part of the plan
agreed upon between the Northwestern
and the member of th Commercial club
in this city who are carrying on the fight
It I probable the plans will be made pub
Ho after the meeting of the executive com
mittee of the Commercial club this after-
( nopn whlc
XSTatter of
y Is playing
which ha been called to discuss the
coal rates. ' If the Northwestern
into- the hand of the Omaha
consumers Ihntead of staying with its com
petitors in the rate agreement the com
petitors have evidently not yet found out
the deception, for they profess to believe
there is ho break In the ranks of the road
which have agreed to advance and main
tain the rates.
'Prison dm Back.
Another cane of "having it in for Omaha"
has developed with the -'Frisco system. It
seem that when the railroads got together
and unanimously agreed to advance steam
coal rates to. Omaha-they entered Into an
agreement that they- 'Woul -not' make -any
Increase In their Council Bluffs tariff rates.
The, 'Frisco system, however, broke' away
from this agreement and, acting, for itself,
moved up th-rates to Council Bluff as
well as to Omaha. It has become convinced
of the errcr of it -way in not meeting
rate of other roads and soon, will announce
a reduction to July rates on coal to th
Bluffs, while : maintaining the advanced
rates to the Gate City.
Omaha coal dealer claim there was no
mistake . In the Northwestern' reduced
tariff sheet and that unless the "Q" meet
th cut, which must go Into effect when
Stated, the "Q" will at once forcibly and
piratically o . on. record as holding up
Omaha.
Look for Itnte War.
All representative of lines Interested
In hauling delegates to the national en
campment of the Grand Army of th Re
publlo to be held at Boston aVe expecting
hourly notice of a rate war from the east.
It seems a combination of lines Including
the Union Pacific, Northwestern and Wa
bash by Inducements offered has corralled
the bulk of the business from the west,
much to the detriment of other line east
of Chicago which were out for the travel,
but failtd to secure what they believed to
b their fair share of It. The lines west
of Chicago hav not fared so badly, as It
Is understood the business Is more evenly
divided. As the delegates-will leave Omaha
for Boston Saturday next It is believed It
a war. results It will be announced from
the east today oi" tomorrow. The North
western has all arrangements completed to
haul six Pullman cars .loaded with dele
gates out of Omaha Saturday evening. Th
ear will be mado up Into a special train
which Will run directly through, using
the Wabash east of Chicago. The prin
cipal Inducement offered by this combina
tion of lines is. that the delegates may
have the option of returning via Bt. Louis
if they so deslr without additional cost.

Eight years a fugitive from Justice,
John Welsh, 1823 North Eighteenth street,
Is in a cell a. th city Jail charged with
attempting assault upon Anna Nelson, a
6-year-old child, whose parents reslO
at 70 North Sixteenth street. The affair
occurred in "Ramcat Alley," between
Fifteenth and Sixteenth and Webster and
Burt streets, Monday, at about 4 p. m.,
and was witnessed by Mrs. A. Miller, of
1515 Burt street. Assistant County Attor
ney Maguey Is making an investigation
with a view of filing a criminal charge
against Welsn Wednesday morning. -
Mrs. Miller described the details of
Welsh's attempt as of th most revolting
character. Only her screams attracted a
crowd of men and foiled th crime.
"When th crowd of angry men gath
ered, Officer Deyer having caught Welsh
after a chase, I accused him and he called
me a liar," said Mrs. Miller at the police
station. I thought the . culprit certainly
would be lynched for awhile."
When arrested Welsh' appeared to be
more or less under the influence of liquor.
He would not say much about the affair.
H Is 65 years of age and Is known to the
police, having been arrested several years
ago on a similar charge said to have been
committed ten year ago near O'Neill, Neb.
At the time 'of his arrest he had been a
fugitive from Justice for eight years. A
reward of 50 was offered for his arrest.
Ha was not prosecuted at that time for
the reason that his victim-had long since
married and was opposed to the publicity.

The rooms occupied by the Butler ft Mil

tional bank at Sixteenth and Farnam
streets, have been leaned to the Nlles,
Mosher company of Kansas City, who
will take possession the first of the year.
The Nlles, Mosher company Is a large
Wholesale distributing concern, interested
with others In counteracting the Influences
of the Continental Cigar company, or cigar
store trust. It proposes to open both a re
tall and wholesale establishment In Omaha
and have outbid the Butler ft Miller peo

corner, which is considered the best cigar
store location in the city.
The new company handles a list jf goods
that compete directly with the wares of
the Continental Cigar company, which
tried to' obtain a foothold In Omaha a year
or two ago and was driven out by the
retail cigar dealers who looked upon 'the
trust a certain to drive many of them
out of business. Whether the combine
that has now Inserted an opening wedge
will have the same effect upon th local

Th Burlington wop report covering the
taut week sey that th Wymore and Lin
coln divisions of the system have been fa
vored with rains ranging from .06 to .8
Inch. The Lincoln division, however, la get
ting dry enough In some places to Interfere
with fall plowing. No rain was reported
during the week from the Bherldon division,
the weather I very hot nd th ground I
getting dry.) On the Alliance division ev
eral rains fell during the week and the soil
Is In good condition. The for part of th
wek wa very dry on the McCook division,
but there were good rains during th latter
part of th week. Some fall plowing has,
been done. Thar wa a sever hailstorm In
the vicinity of Maywood, which destroyed
all crops on a strip twelve mile long by
eight miles wide.
Harvesting 1 almost completed on th
Lincoln division, the yield will run about
twenty bushel an acre on a conservative
estimate. The oat yield will b very heavy
at Bargent and will run a high a fifty
bushels per acre at Burwell and thirty-five
bushels at Palmer. On the Wymore divi
sion the wheat will run about eight -to fif
teen bushels to the acre; threshing Is still
In progress. On the McCook division about
half th wheat 1 being threshed from the
shock and It Is running from twenty to
twenty-five bushels to th acre; between
Kenesaw and Holdrege five to fifteen in
the valley and about twenty on the divide
between Oxford and McCook. ' '
On Imperial Branch.
On the Imperial branch th yield i esti
mated at about eighteen bushels to the
acre; between Akron and Denver about
thirty to forty bushels. Between Hastings
and Red Cloud about fifteen to twenty
seven bushels. From Red Cloud to Oxford
the yield Is rather poor, somewhat ' dam
aged by rust. On (the Oberlln line the es
timate is seven to twelve bushels; Bt. Fran
cis line three to thirty bushels. The barley
crop is yleldfng very satisfactorily.
On the Lincoln division the corn crop is
vtolng well, but some rain Is needed. A
moderate supply of moisture will maltt a
good crop, On the Wymore division corn
Is making a rapid growth, but rain would
do It good. On th McCook ' division th
corn Crop is in good condition, the rain Of
last week having greatly Improved it. On
the Alliance division the condition of the
corn crop is good. -
Hay, millet and alfalfa Is In good condi
tion.. The second crop of alfalfa Is being
cut. Prairie hay is being cut in some locali
ties and the crop is quite heavy. Th
range and pasture are green and in good
condition. Range stock 1 in good condition

TO REDUCE RATES CF WATER
Movement Lanncbea ky Board t
Ckaag Ordinance ana Cat
Down Charge.
i
Th water board decided Monday after
noon to ask the city council to reduce th
ratM charged by th Omaha Water com
pany. Thl ws don In secret pension.
Th resolution adopted wa presented by
Member R B. Howell. Mr. Howell ay
the object Is three-fold, as follows:
To Indue the officer of the water com
pany to aell out quickly.
To reduce a much a possible the "g-Ing-'
value of the plant: that la Its worth
as a commercial proposition ready for use.
To secure relief for water consumer
pending th taking over of th works by
the city.
The resolution which was spread upon
the records I worded a follows!
Where, It bn come to the knowledge
of this board thmujrh investigation made
hy it that th water rate charged th
cttlien of Omaha by th Omaha Water
Work company r eeesslv com
pared with the rate charged in ' cltie of
similar slse, snd
Whereas, The mayor and council of th
city of Omaha have the authority and
rower to regulate water rate and render
he charge made by the -Omaha Water
Works company fair and reasonable.
Therefore, Be It resolved that this board
recommend to the mayor and council of
the city of Omaha that the rate for water
of th Omaha Water Works compsny be
lmmedla:ely fixed by ordinance so that th
same shall be fair and reasonable.
. Isaao E. Congdon, a member of the
board says: "There can b no dispute
over the right of th city council to
mend the water work ordinance so a to
make the rates whatever It choosea The
twenty-five year contract expiring In 190
concerns fire hydrant rentals only. The
council should reduce tha rat In accord
ance with its best Judgment."
Members of the council say they are
taken by surprise and do not wish to com
mit themselves In print until they hav in
vestigated the subject.
Superintendent Hunt had nothing to say
when asked what courae the water com
pany would pursue.
"I don't know because It has not been
decided upon," said he. He did' not deny
the inference, however, that in all prob
ability th water company would fight th
proposed reduction.

BREAKS OUT JN NEW PLACE
Fight Between Mlehaelao'n and Elec
tric Light Company Center How
on Inanranee Rat.
City Electrician Mlchalon and the
Omaha Electlc Light and Power company
have renewed hostilities. The electrician
has referred th matter of alleged im
proper outside wiring to the National
Board of Fire Underwriter, the aam a
he did In the matter of swinging aro lamp
suspension In the business district and
has been assured that unless method ar
changed Insurance rate will be raised.
Despite repeated promises th lighting
company ha not abolished the swinging
suspension and th electrician aay he can
get no satisfaction In the matter of wiring,
his requests and instruction being Ignored.
"I can expect no help In enforcing the
laws from the council or Board of Publlo
Works,; he says, "and I am compelled to
refer this matter to the Insurance people.
"We have had fifteen fire and burnouts
within about three weeks all from one
cause, namely, the Improper line construc
tion of the electrio light company. The
cause of the trouble Is that the high
potential and low potential wires are run
too cloae together, particularly when car
ried through trees. I hav called the. at
tention of the light company to this mat
ter time and time again, but It cannot even
see that It ia wrong, despite the fact that
it started all these fires.'

Question.
Th Clvlo Improvement league will hold
a meeting at the city hall Thursday even

which all th Improvement club of th
city and alt property owner hav been
Invited. The principal question for consid
eration will b, "Why ar w getting no
atreet paving?" Thl question will be dis
cussed by Xlessrs. Lobeck and Wlthnell of
the Board of Publlo Works on one side
and Messrs. Andrew Rosewater and City
Attorney Wright on the other.
Bald a member of the Clvlo Improvement
league:
"I had occasion to visit Rlvervlew park
Sunday evening and while there I was
strikingly Impressed with th absolut un
certainty of protection guaranteed to
women and girls who visit there without
escort. I found th park virtually taken
possession of by a gang of either tramps
or hoodlums, who did not hesltat to mak
Insulting observations to visitors, even

or Cannot Get to the Coanell
Beeans Competitor Ha
It Tied I p.
The latest Incident in th war between
th Barber Asphalt company and the War
ren Bltullthlo company that has prevented
new paving of any kind In Omaha during
the last two years is the announcement
that the Barber company's general office
for th district of Iown and Nebraska will
b removed to De Moines August 15. Noth
ing will be retained In Omaha except , a
small room, wher business msy be trans
acted once In a while.
"We might just a well get out," says
District Manager W, R. McLaughlin.
"Th Warren Bltullthlo company has
things tied up o tight at the city hall
that w can't ven get a chance to bid
on work when there is any In sight. The
same concern. In the effort to get absolute
control here, has blocked successfully every
bit of new paving proposed. W ar tired
of spending money and getting no return.
Undr these circumstances I am not
surprised to receive order to transfer the
district offle to De Moines. Practically
all th business wa hav don for two
year ha been outside of Omaha, but I
think If we had received fair treatment
from city officers inere, the office would
hav been retained.

A Fake Comparison.
'A local contemporary was out with a bul
letin last Monday, making a comparison of last
Sunday's want ads, which included those in"
The Bee. . .
To Bhow howf misleading it tried to.he.it
took only five classifications, when The Bee
carries thirty. The classifications which it se
lected as ' a basis 'of comparison, were ones
which were padded for the occasion, if it
wanted to be fair, why not mention, for in
stance the Keal Estate column which showed
THE BEE TO IIAVE ONE HUNDRED AND
EIGHTEEN INCHES, against its contempo
rary's eighty inches. ,
The Bee leads in paid want ads always.
Bee want ads give the best returns. A trial
will convince.
