verifying tha rumors that a new rata waa

Tha tariff appllea to ateam coala hauled

achedulea la a matter which occaalona aoma
apeculatlon, aa It la now positively known
that tha rata waa under consideration at
tha tlma tha announcement waa flrat made
In tha papera aoma weeke age.
Kfforta mada at that time to get definite
' Information on tha awbjeot from Chicago
" were unavailing and It began to look aa if
tha report of tha Intended raise waa prema
ture. Subeiquently word waa received
that iha new rate . would go Into effect
on tha th. but the time for tha expected
advance paaaed and no word waa received
rom headquartera. Tha local omcee were
bombarded with requests for Information,
which came by telephone and through per
aonal calls at tha offices of tha company,
but tha agenta could throw -no light on
the subject. The $1.01 rata waa put Into
affect several weeks ago after tha Burling
ton had published tta tariff aheet announc
ing It had mada a new rata on a basla of
$1.01
Increase Over Bwrllnsxton.
Tha foregoing rate la a alight Increaaa
over the old Burlington flgurea, but a re
duction over the onea which tha company
bad Intended to out In force. While there
waa general aatlsfactlon over tha reduction
there alao ' waa, dlaappolntment that tha
reduction did not reault In a return to tha
i old rates. It waa at thla tlma that tha

I aald the real motive In making thla rata
i waa to cover tha Cudahy con tracts, held

There la considerable curlosyy now to see
what tha Burlington will do. It la pretty

The coal , rata la tha principal question

the subject of. restoring the old rate of

been abandoned, despite the action of tha

whatever plan the road has under consid

THOUSANDS G0J0 ST. LOUIS
Rebraatsaaa neck t WerleVe relr to
Attend ke State Day
Festivities.
In tha excitement attendant upon the
Ak-Bar-Ben excursion, Nebraska day at the
Bt. Loula exposition haa almost been lost
sight of, but Inquiry at the local ticket
offices ahowa that Mlnenapolia did not get
all tha people who wera anxious to have
an outing. It la estimated that nearly
2,000 people left Omaha for the Worlda fair.
It la difficult to get a fair estimate of the
Nebraakana from other parts of the atata
wh went on the excursion, but it la aafe
to arsume that the state will be well rep
resented at tha ceremoniea held there to
day. Tha last train for Bt Loula left Omaha
at :30 o'clock Monday evening and waa
hauled by two engines. There waa an
other special of seven coaches In the morn
ing at 7:45 and thla also waa hauled by
two anginea, while a special made up almost
entirely of sleepers left for St. Loula at
11;30 o'clock. Between Sunday morning
and Monday evening eight specials left tha
Union station, and one waa sent out from
Council Bluffs. The Burlington carried
less than too people from thla city, but It
took aeveral thousand from other parts of
tha atata. Tha Burlington official esti
mated they would carry 12,000 people, and
tha aala of ticketa will not fall below thla
number. The Missouri Paciflo carried
about 100 people from thla city, but tha
number waa swelled at other points along
tha Una.
FULFILLS GIRL'S LAST WISH
Aged goldler gearchea fop Pet Cow
Ha Promised to Keep for
, Little Nlcec.
After wandering over twenty ' miles In
search of a cow which had been the pet of
his dead niece, Henry Berton, an old sol
dler living in a email abanty ten miles
north of Council Bluffs, waa found In an
exhauated condition at Sixteenth and Cum
Ing street Monday night. This morning
ha reported his loss to the police.
"We called tha cow Spot,'" aald Berton,
"and aha waa the favorite of my little girl,
who ralaed her. ' When Betty that's my
little girl waa IS years old aha died, and
tha laat thing aha aald to ma was, 'Daddy,
take care of Spot' She used to call me
Daddy, but I waa only ber uncle. Betty
died two yeara ago, and ainca then I have
taken care ef Spot. Saturday night I put
her In the barn, but Sunday she waa gone.
and I have been looking for her."
Tile old man aald he could not go back
home until he had found "Spot," aa the
plaoe would seem 'so lonely without the
only link that bound him to his dead child.
Tha police took up a collection for him
and aent him to South Omaha, where he In
tend . looking through the Steele yards.
In case "Spot" la not there, Berton sutd he
would go to Kansas City, where the mother
of Betty Uvea, and stay with her.
"I would feel ao lonely without Spot,"
the old soldier said, pathetically, "so lonely,
for Betty, my dear girl, told me to look
after her."
BLACKBIRD ISLAND CASE

The famous Blackbird Island trespass
case will be argued before Judge 'Munger
In the United States district court Thurs
day morning. ' Thla la the case where suit
was brought agalnat Phillips & Johnson to
prevent them from cutting timber from the
Island, which waa held by tha govern
ment to comprise a portion of the lands
belonging to the Omaha Indian reserva
tion and upon . which Phillips A Johnson
had entered a filing in 'Iowa under the
homestead lawa. It waa further charged
that they at once proceeded to denude the
Island of Ita valuable timber. The tres
passers were enjoined from further tres
pass at the Instance of the Omaha Indiana,
and the testimony waa taken In this- city
before United States Master Commissioner
Dickinson several montha ago.
The contention of the United Statea la
that the Island waa not aubject to home
stead entry after a resurvey of the land
had been made, but that it waa part of
tha Indian reservation. Phillips A Johnson
demur against thla proposition and hold
that having filed upon the land and been
given a quasi right thereto by regularly
accredited officers of the land department
they are Justified In appropriating the tim
ber In order to prepare the land for culti
vation. ALL STAR DAY IN COURT

Just responded to an enoore of $5 and costs
forjila usual engagement aa tha champion
foe of John Barleycorn, Nettle Miles, a
prima donna residing within the Third

Judge Berka'a police court and sought to
explain the circumstances attending the
removal of a certain wrapper from the' pos
session of Nellie Foster, a neighbor, to tha
custody of the aald Mlsa Miles, and thence
to a certain dye worka.

Despite even thia emphatic declaration,
Mlsa Mllea waa requested by Judge Berks
to arrange to have her mall addressed, for

Mlaa Foster's preponderance of evidence
was that Mlsa Mllea had procured the

MICnAELSON AGAINST FIELD
City Electrician Defend Hi Action, Which
, i Attacked by Council.
SAYS HE IS ONLY DOING HIS DUTY
Threat la Canted by the Report of
Vaderwrlters taapeetov oa Elee
trio Llaht Company'a De
rlent Wiring.
The members of the city council were
real petulant with City Electrician Michael
aon yesterday afternoon at the council com
mittee meeting. Dave O'Brien became ao
active In the discussion that one might al
most suspect him of having a strain of
Irish blood In his veins, and President Zlm
man alao ahowed considerable feeling In
hla criticism Of Mr. Mlchaelson. Anderson
O. Boeson. head of the Nebraska Fire In
surance inspection bureau, wail flung on
the coals. a time or two himself, but hardly
enough to scorch him.
The reason of this heat was the presenta
tion of a report from W. S. Boyd, national
inspector of the Underwriters' asaoclation,
On this Mr. Beeson said the companies
stood and they would Insist on the compll
ance with It of electrical wiring companiea
If the present rate of Insurance was to be
maintained. Mr. Mlchaelson waa really on
the stand to defend himself against the
charge of having gone east and In order to
sustain himself in a personal fight given
the Insurance companion Information which
allowed them an excuse for advancing their
rates. That waa the idea of several of
the councllmen.
"I think It wrong," aald Mr. Zimman,
for Michaelaon to have gone to Chicago to
get a' threat to raise insurance rates by
appealing to the underwriters. Whenever
they want to raise the ratea they find fault
with something. First It was the wtater
Pjpes, then the council, then the fire ap
paratus. We have spent thousands of dol
lars to satisfy them. The conditions now
complained of have existed for years and
the underwriters never have complained of
them before,"
Mr. Mlchaelson defended himself at length
against the charge of having appealed to
the Underwriters' association.
Condemned for Doing His Daly.
"I am sorry to be conuemned for .doing
my duty," he said. "I have made certain
recommendations to Improve the wiring.
The records are open to show that I have
aeen things wrong In wiring and In apeak
ing about It have uniformly received cour
teous treatment from every, houaa con
cerned except the electric light people.
They said I did not know what I waa talk
ing about and that I had It In for them.
In order to determine which waa right I
waa aa apt to be wrong aa they I tried to
get an opinion from the highest authority
on fire hazards, leaving out the questlone
of personal risk. All I wanted waa to have
in Omaha no less precautions taken than
In other cities where they have the same
class of currents. Milwaukee ia the only
city which does not require the precautions
I have asked. All I aaked waa to change
the method of hanging atreet lights, which
waa not according to the ordinance. The
ordinance waa changed ao aa to make the
lights come within Ita provisions. After
that I only tried to prove whether I was
wrong or the other aide."
Councilman Nicholson asked the elec
trician why he worked for the underwriters,
Jle Intimated the aotlon of the latter had
coma through no casualties to the public
Mr. Mlchaelson replied a man had been
recently killed Just outside of the city lim
its and that several Area had been started
by the wiring.
"I did not drop the question of the' wiring
and atreet light hanging," continued Mr.
Mlchaelson,. "because It waa ao obviously
dangerous, the system of loop suspension
of 8,000 volt wires. When the city employs
a roan aa city electrician he should at least
receive a hearing and get official anawers
to his communications which I have not"
Mr. Beeson said Inspector Boyd had been
here aeveral times before the contention
had arisen between the lighting company
and the city official. He had stayed one
time ten daya and had visited, all of the
large buildings and the wiring companiea.
Holdrege Dlpe In,
H. H. Holdrege, general manager of the
electrlo light company, waa present and
he and Mr. Mlchaelson expressed radically
different vlewa as to the length of time
required for the latter to answer a notice
to Inspect wiring. Mr. Holdrege said he
had pinned Mr. Boyd down to the admis
sion that the telegraph wires caused the
trouble by falling across the light wires.
He aald alao regarding tha chargea of Mr.
Mlchaelson that dangerous high potential
wires and low potential wires which went
Into houses and would be handled by people
were atrung on the same crossbar, and
where they went through tree leaves the
current of the high could cross to the low,
that this crossing of the current waa Im
possible. He aald the company was fixing
the wiring which, In the residence dis
tricts, had been condemned aa dangerous. .
The question came up also aa to dis
crimination and Mr. Mlchaelson said his
predecessor must have had it in for the
light company, to Judge from the ordi
nances. Mr. Holdrege aald the ordinance
required any company transmitting light
and. power to put ita wires underground and
pointed out the atreet railway company
did theae things, but never had been made
to build consults.
Tha councllmen demanded of Mr. Mlch
aelson why be had not made an uproar
about the transportation oompany and
made it comply with the ordinance.
Enters Into Agreement.
Mr. Mlchaelson said. he had made an
agreement with the atreet railway com
pany that he would require it to make no
changea until It got into ita new power
houaa and had ita syatem renewed aa thla
change would require. The company bad
agreed if it continued to furnish power
and light it would comply with the require
ment. He aaid further in regard to Hay-
den Bros., who get light from the atreet
railway company, that he had managed to
get them to end thia contract, a thing
which hla predecessor had tried for 'nine
yeara to do. If the Haydena had not been
Involved In litigation which kept them from
building they would before thla date have
been furnishing their own light, he sold. '
The question of the license for electrical
work refuaed to Joseph A. Bortenlanger
came up and caused a discussion, lie pre
sented recommendations and Mr. Michael
aon explained that he had failed to pass
aa examination. The matter will oome up
ai a meeting of the council Monday.
John L. McCague and othar members of
the school board appeared before the coun
cllmen to protest agalnat 1.300 damagea for
grading Jonea atreet between Thirty-eighth
and Fortieth streets being assessed agalnat
the Columbia school property. They aaid
the achool building had been built on the
established grade, at a cost of several
hundred dollars. It was about eight feet
below the surrounding land and they bad
for thla reason wished to have the etreet
graded. They thought they were not eub.
Ject to the entire damagea because they
had built oa the grade as required. The
hoard refused to entertain their contention.

MUSIC AND UUSICIAIS
The Concert Promoters must certainly
feel elated over the magnificent audience
which assembled last night to attend the
opening musical event of the eeason, which,
under their auspices, took place at the
First Congregational church. Thle premier
presentation of the Omaha Concert Pro
moters took the form of a concert com
posed chiefly of "chamber music." a term
which la usually applied to compositions for
two or three or aeveral instruments, orig
inally to be played In the drawing room or
palace "chamber." aa It were, rather than
In the large concert hall.
The music lovers of Omaha "who are so
fortunate aa to have heard chamber mueio
frequently In times past could not but
admit that the offerings last night were
worthy to rank with the very best possible.
Didactic analysis or criticism on tha play
ing of such wonderful creations aa the
Beethoven trio or the Rubinstein trio, aa
they were given last night, would be out
ef place and unnecessary.
And who gave thla remarkably excellent
workT. Three men who are working in the
art field of the so-called materialistic Chi
cago, Mr. Emit Bauret, violinist; Mr. Bruno
Steindel, 'cellist, and Mr. Rudolph Orans,
pianist. A brilliant trinity of Intrinsically
artistic unities. Such ensemble, or con
certed work, aa they produced la enough to
take one's thoughts by storm and convince
one of the greatnesa of tha art when meas
ured by great artists In any one direction.
Of the solo playing, what Is there to say?
Mr. Oans, who came to Omaha without sny
wondrous heralding, blaaoned his way Into
the hearts and minds of the people by his
lucid, brilliant work. Mr. Oans la a great
pianist. He has all those qualitloe which
go to make up what la termed generally
"technique." And above all, anij around
all, and over all, there la evident the great
soul of a man. In response to prolonged
applause Mr. Oana played a Chopin valse
as en encore.
That Mr. Emll Bauret la a prince among
violinists Is self-evident and he waa re
peatedly and enthusiastically recalled. Mr.
Bauret'a solo work was gracefully accom
panied by Madame Mothe-Borglum.
Mr. Steindel waa heard to great advan
tage In the eneemble, but played no solos
The many local friends of this artist one
of the few really great 'cellists N of the
world, were delighted to hear him again.
He was urged to play a special number,
but be declined on account of the fact that
he had Just returned- from Europe two
weeks ago, and was not anxious to play
solo work until he had worked some. Such
Is the power of the Idea with the great
artist. .
LIVELY SESSION IN BIG SIXTH
i
Roosevelt and Fairbanks Clab Haa
Another of Ita Ronslag
Rallies.
Henry T. Clarke, Jr., candidate for state
representative, at the meeting of the Sixth
Ward Roosevelt and Fairbanks club In
Idlewlld hall last night, announced a bill he
proposes to Introduce In the legislature to
secure the equal taxation of terminal and
shop property of railroads in Omaha and
other cities of the state. His Idea Is to
have the right-of-way and station grounds
defined In exact language; all other rail
road property In a city to be assessed and
taxed by the local authorities. In his
speech he urged republicans to vote for the
whole ticket and declared that any one
of thla political belief must be radical In
deed to cut a man of John U Kennedy's
caliber aa hla choice for congress.
B. F. Thomas, candidate fop -state sen
ator, aaid the democrata are trying to trade
off their legislative tlcfcet'for votes for
Hitchcock and English. -' He 'asserted there
ia greater danger In the republicans not
electing their congressional and county at
torneyship candidates than the legislative
ticket and warned his hearers against fall
ing Into any traps of thla kind.
"I have refrained from taking sides in
factional fights," aaid Robert Cowell. chair
man of the county committee, "and I be
lieve and practice -the theory that a man
who haa been aelected at a primary by the
people ahould receive the unqualified sup
port of. his party. Our candidates are
clean, reputable and representative and
ahould all be elected. Few men can give
a good reason why they ahould not vote
for Governor Mickey, and none why they
should not vote for John X Kennedy."
Nelson C. Pratt made a stirring speech
on national Issues, declaring that the time
had come when support should be given
only to men of character and brains the
type personified by President . Roosevelt.
He said the whole republican .ticket In Ne
braska Is worthy and is entitled to win
on its merits. He urged particularly the
election of John Ia Kennedy: to assist the
president In solving the problems of the
nation. .
T. A. Hollister delivered an oration and
W. O. Ure said a few words' commendatory
of men who "knew w hat they were going
to do and were able to tell the people
about It." County Treasurer Fink urged
tne necessity of Mr. Kennedy's election
from the national standpoint of the dis
trict 4-
Music was furnished by the 'Alma Quar

SLOPPY SMITH GOES FREE
Oldest of Qs( Arrested Maintains
Innocence to Last and Is
Releaaed.
"Bloppy" Smith, oldest of the six young
men arreated as outlawa a few daya ago,
moat of whom, confessed to a aeries of
crimes and a plot to dynamite the Harney
street car barn, baa been releaaed from
police custody. ,
Smith had served a term In the peniten
tiary and the police had exerted every effort
to satisfy their suspicions of his prnbablo
guilt in this case, but he pleaded not guilty,
unlike the majority of the gang, and atuck
to hia word, despite continual sweating
at the city jail. Not once did he utter a
word of self-incrimination. His plea all
along was he had nothing to do with the
robberies snd the unfinished plot, but that
he "Just happened along," and was taken
with the othera. -
Smith waa regarded by hla companions aa
the smoothest of tha lot, and not one of
t.'icni would Implicate htm. .
