NEW ORDER ON SOCIAL EVIL
Chief Donahue Issues Some New Eegula-
tious for Burnt District.
EXPECTS TO ERADICATE PRESENT CRIBS
Women to Be Confined Exclusively to
Houses, to Wear Respectable
Clothlnsj and to Comport
Themselves Orderly,
Chief Donahue has Issued a set of very
strict orders to the police department for
the government of women In the "red
light" district. It Is the chief s demand
that women of the half-world must com
port themselves with decency of manners
and apparel so long an they can be seen
from or upon the street. The "cribs,"
which are one-story, two-room structures,
with large, low windows In front, are
marked for extinction.
"The social evil cannot be prevented In
large cities, but It should be kept out of
sight," says Chief Donahue. "It is not
enough to herd the women together In one
locality. They must be kept Indoors and
no signs of their shame publicly exhibited.
No "cribs " should De allowed. The women
should be compelled to remain Ins de houses
that are no different from other houses.
The women shall be properly clothed when
they go outside and they shall not eollctt
by word or gesture."
The orders Just Issued provide that the
curtains in the crib windows shall be
drawn at all times; that the doors shall be
kept closed and that women must not sit
where they can be seen from the outside
and adress or motion passersby. If they
are to be seen on the street or from the
outside at all, they must discard short
skirts and low-cut and sleeveless bodices.
Substantially, they must appear and act In
public tho same as respectable women and
shall not seek, but must be sought for.
lighting to Be Reduced.
The lighting of the burnt district Is to be
toned down and no lamps allowed except
those paid for and provided by the city for
ordinary Illuminating purposes.
'The women In the cribs pay rents run
ning from Jl 50 to 2 a day," says Chief
Donahue. "The money is collected at 4
o'clock every afternoon, and If the tenant
has not the cash she has to vacate. The
cribs are low and consist of a front and a
back room. In summer , they are very hot.
If the windows, doors and shades are not
kept open to get a draft the Inmates swel
ter horribly. The cribs are built by Omaha
men, who furnish some of .tjiem and make
big money. In 1897 they charged so much
rent that women were found who declared
they had not eaten meat for weeks and
cried from pure hunger. The police de
partment at that time compelled landlords
to reduce the charges.
'Taking all the conditions Into considera
tion, the orders I have given should eradi
cate the cribs In comparatively short time.
There may be as many as seventy-nve of
these places In the district. If a woman is
discovered violating these orders she will
be arrested, her place closed and will stay
closed for good and all."

OUR LETTER BOX.
Price of .Gas in Omaha.
OMAHA, April 18. To the Editor of The
Bee: As I see the city council Is about
to renew a contract with the Omaha Gas
company, I would suggest that Instead of
laying so much stress on the amount of
royalty they pay, so as to get It Increased,
that they Insist on a reduction per 1,000
feet to private consumers. As a matter of
fact we pay the royalty In addition to our
taxes. If they did not have to allow the
city 10 cents per 1,000 feet they probably
would take that much off the other con
sumers, and a reduction of 60 cents or tl
In a. man's gas bill each month would
enable him to pay his proportion of the
$10,000 or 112,000 the city gets as royalty
and allow him a good surplus. The writer
some years ago was a member of a city
council In a town not 1,000 mile) from hero.
where we paid $1.60 per LOOO feet for gas.
We had to renew their contract and got It
down to $1 per 1,000 feet. If you think my
argument has any merit to It please take
the matter up. SUBSCRIBER.
Boost Now and Then.
OMAHA, April 17,-To the Editor of Tho
Bee: In the meeting of the Ministerial
union as mentioned by The Bee I noticed
certain remarks made by ministers con
cerning the city. I want to say right hero
that It goes a little too far when ministers
of the gospel will band together for the
purpose of casting slurs upon the city and
vilifying their fellow men. Certainly that
goes too far. Omaha has had enough of
such blackmail. It Is time that the people
stand up for Omaha and not take every
slur and abuse heaped upon It. For my
part anyone who will so utterly denounce
their place of habitation should not be al
lowed to remain and make their living hero.
There Is no place on this earth where
you can find all peace and purity, but to
say that Omaha Is the worst city of all Is
an absolute untruth. I am an old pioneer
of Omaha and have never seen such a dis
play aa they described. Of course, people
who look for such things will find them.
To the pure In heart all things are pure.
Such talk as these ministers Indulge In
behind closed doors docs the city no good.
It does not by any means build up a greater
Omaha. These ministers of "His," that do
"His" pleasure, certainly are going a long
way from their path of duty In constantly
referring to evlisj" That Is not the way
ministers did to ny youthful days. . If they
saw evil abound .they went- around doing
good and did not'ulander the community.
In regard to the traveling men being such
base characters, I have never found theni
so. 1 nave traveiea consiaeraDie ana nave
always found them perfect gentlemen and
obliging.' This In all justice and truth to
the community. AN OLD PIONEER.
Resents Implied Slur.
FREMONT, Neb., April 20. (To the Ed
itor of The Bee. Regarding the remarks
Dr. S. D. Duteher of the First Christian
church of your city said In your paper
of April IS, "Social Evil to Be Ousted,"
allow me to say: Could not the Rev. Dr.
S. D. Duteher be mistaken for a commer
cial traveler with the pimps, aa he said
"I too, have passed through those abomina
ble streets." '
There are Just as good and clean men on
the road aa in any pulpit, and I may say
In some cases, better.
I dislike very, much, . because some men
do wrong, that, some one should cast a
slur on that particular body, the. commer
cial man. ... . .
Let me call the .attention of Dr. Duteher
to the late brother of the Christian church.
They do wrong as well aa the poor com
mercial man.
Being a reader of The Bee for fifteen
years, and having traveled the great state
of Nebraska for the same period, and what
is more, a citizen of It, I feel Dr. 8. D.
Duteher has done an Injustice to the com
mercial traveler by saying In his remarks,
"Commercial travelers or pimps." Why not
leave commercial traveler out?
Very truly yours,
WM. BRYANT, Blair, Neb.

Trnrellag Men and Ministers.
WAYNE, Neb., April 18. (To the Editor
of The Bee.) Having purchased your paper
for the past ten years I take the liberty
of asking for a little space in which to
reply to Rev. S.' D. Dutcher's remarks
relative to commercial travelers. He proba
bly is not aware that In speaking as he
does, he slanders about a quarter of a
million traveling men, 90 per cent of whom
earn more money In six months than men
of his kind and ability earn In two years,
and furthermore, representing more good
sound common sense In a minute, to say
nothing further about the ability of the
commercial man, than the Rev. Duteher
could display In seven years.
There are exceptions in all classes, and
I think it no more right that traveling
men should be Judged by the actions of one
man than that all clergymen should be con-
demned for the act of one of their brothers
who was found dead In his own church In
Omaha a year or two ago. If the Rev
Duteher had attended Memorial services
at any of the churches In the United
States on, Sunday, April 8, under the
auspices of the United Commercial Travel
ers, he would have found that there Is
probably a far greater percentage of vir
tuous and moral traveling men than clergy
men.
I can think of nothing mean enough, and
no words harsh enough to express my utter
contempt of the vile, loathsome thing who
would dare utter these words, and I cer
tainiy expect an apology In your columns
soon. Does he know what he Is going up
against 7 ir he does not he soon will.
Thanking God that ministers of the Rev.
Dutcher's type are in the minority, I am,
GEORGE MOELLER.
CONSIDER THE EASTER LILY

LOCAL DEMAND FOR FLOWERS IS STEADY

Fashioned Genista, bat Jio
Modest Violets.
How would you like to be the florlstT
He estimates that he will sell ten times
as many flowers today and tomorrow as
he has disposed of all week, and anyone
who pretends to know about flowers can
Imagine that he makes a good profit at
any time. One dealer has seven extra
salesmen in his shop for the last day of the
Easter trade, and all the others have In
creased their force to three or four times
Its ordinary sise. Besides selling thousands
of potted plants and bunches of cut flowers,
the florists will have to make arrange
ments for elaborate church decorations for
Sunday.
By far the largest sale of flowers will be
of Easter lilies. There are this year un
limited numbers of fresh, healthy, robust
plants. Easter Is much later than usual,
so that the plants and flowers have been
permitted to take their own time to put
on their Easter splendor. In this latter
day it is possible for the florist to force
nature a little and to mature flowers In
considerably less than schedule time, but
when this Is done the blooms are soft and
lacking In vigor and freehness, and the
plants are limp and artificial In appear
ance. This spring there la the flush of
health and the glow of nature In all the
flowers.
Violets Oat of the Market.
The violet, a fa-orlte spring flower. Is
extremely scarce today, and the girl who
Is fond of the modest blossom will have to
content herself with lilies and roues.
Florists say that the violets have not been
perfect for the last three weeks, and It
Is now almost Impossible to obtain them
at all, as It Is so late In the season. Most
of the violets sold in Omaha are home
grown. They are sweet and of good color,
but small. Owing to their scarcity, they
command a high price. There is great de
mand this year for violets in the markets
of the Hudson river and In those of Grand
Rapids and other Michigan towns, but the
supply Is not large enough. Even Chicago,
which always has abundance of flowers of
all varieties, Is suffering a violet famine.
Visitors at the shops are sadly lamenting
the violet's absence. Women are very
much In love with the drooping, nodding
blossoms, and they say that nothing ac
companies the swish of a stunning new
gown quite so well as a neat bouquet of
violets.
Old-Faahloned Favorite. '
Something new, yet old. Is to be found
on the local flower market. It Is the old
fashioned genista, a golden flower of the
sweet-pea .family. It Is beautiful, too, with
Its feathery bloom, and was so well llkeed
about twenty years aro that It rivalled the
lily In popularity as an emblem of Easter.
There were so many calls for the plant
last year that the florists have provided for
the demand this season. The plants cost
all the way from $1 to $5. being somewhat
higher than the Easter Illy, which may be
bought for 60 cents, and from that on up
to $2.60, according to the beauty of the
plant and the number of buds.
Hydrangeseas are plentiful in Omaha,
Some very beautiful and delicate shades are
shown, Tulips and hyacinths are much In
demand. Murlllo tulips, white, tinted with
delicate pink, have made their appear
ance. The Dutch and Roman hyacinths
shown In the windows are very beautiful.
The lily of the valley will always be a
popular flower. The florists have plenty of
them and they are now In their prime.
Potted Plants Popular.
Potted plants are being used much as
Easter gifts. The high price demanded for
cut flowers, and the fact that they last but
a day and wither, accounts for this eon.
dltlon. It Is more satisfactory to buy
something which holds Its beauty for a
week -tr? more. The dealers are making
little baskets of the blooming plants and
selling them as Easter offerings In place of
bunches of cut flowers. By themselves,
the baskets are not things of beauty, but
when filled with flowers, they are pleasing
Indeed.
About the most expensive flowers which
are to be had are American beauty roses.
They sell at Easter time at from $6 to $12
a dozen. The cheapest obtainable are the
carnations, which sell at 60 cents to $1 a
doaen.

CARTER COMPANY NOT MIXED
Merger of Lead Prodaeera Not Ukely
to Affect the Independent
Company.
E. J. Cornish, president of the Carter
White Lead company of Omaha and Chi
cago, returned to Omaha yesterday from
Chicago for a stay at his home of two
weeks. Interviewed regarding the reported
merger of the lead trusts, by which the
American Smelting and Refining company,
the Guggenheim Exploration company and
the American Lead company were brought
together under one management, Mr.
Cornish said:
"I think it Is true that the American
Smelting and Refining company now owns
or controls all of the smelters In the United
States. I think It is also true that the
National Lead company, heretofore known
as the White Lead trust, and the United
Lead company, owned by parties Identified
with the American Smelting and' Refining
company, are practically merged Into on
corporation, controlled by the American
Smelting and Refining company's interests.
The Carter White Lead company Is not
connected with any of these trusts or In
juriously affected thereby. I don't think
there Is any danger of our company hav
ing trouble In buying pig lead. The old
Omaha smelter was active In Inducing the
first construction of our works here. Since
then we have bought substantially all of
our pig lead from the Omaha smelter and
its successors, the so-called Smelting trust.
It la quite unthinkable that they would
not continue to treat us fairly. Besides,
this Is a government of public opinion. The
more complete and powerful the monopoly
the more considerate they are of publlo
opinion."
