BERLIN. May 2. The prices of all meats
have' risen from IK to 35 per cent since
February, the advance following a rise
from 100 marka to 130 and 135 marks per
metrics hundred-weight in the price of hogs.
Including all the animals excepting th
hide and hoofs. The advance in hog prices
was due to the shortage of hogs which
followed the drouth of 1904.
The anti-agrarians are using the oppor
tunity to assail the policy of closing the
frontiers to foreign meats and are de
manding that the government admit food
animals. The Importation of worn-out
horsea from abroad for food purposes has
increased as is usual when meat rises.
Horses are not within the exclusion paragraphs.

were Injured In a collision between th

near Revelstoke. Both trains wer de

That do passengers waa killed was due to
the fact that there were several empty
passenger coaches between the engine and
th regular passenger coaches.
An ordinance was Introduced In the coun
cil by Councilman Nicholson last night to
repeal section 73 of the building ordinances,
which reads:
"No boiler, furnace, engine or heating ap
paratus, except heating pipes and radiators,
shall be located under the auditorium or
stage, nor under any passageway or stair
way of exit of any public building."
Councilman Nicholson said: "This ordi
nance Is for the purpose of allowing the
new Omaha Commercial college building at
Nineteenth and Farnam streets to be built.
If the section is enforced In this case and
the boiler placed from under the auditorium
or stage of the theater a great deal of alter
ation will be necessary In the original
plans."
Building Inspector Wlthnell ha contended
for the enforcement of the ordinance and It
is to make him powerless In the matter that
it is sought to nullify the provision and
wipe it off the ordinance books altogether.
Arrests have already been made and cases
are to be tried in the police court for viola
tion of the ordinance In this particular. The
repealing measure was referred to the com
mittee on buildings and property, of which
Councilman Hoye Is chairman.
Paving Specifications.
City Engineer Roeewuter did not submit
paving specifications as had been promised.
He had time only to get them Into the
hands of the attorney, who did not have
opportunity to Inspect them for approval:
To enable him to do this and got action on
the specifications as early as possible, a re
cess was taken until Friday morning at 10
o'clock, when not only paving, but specifica
tions for sidewalk and sewers will be
ready.
An ordinance was Introduced which is to
give the Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul &
Omaha railroad the right to lay tracks
across Eighth street north of Dodge to the
alley between Dodge and Douglas, and up
the alley to Twelfth street, crossing Ninth,
Tenth and Eleventh.
A bill for $300 for work revising the char
ter by W. T. Nelson, which was rejected
by the council, has been reflled by Mr. Nel
son and waa referred to the committee on
finance and claims.
The appointment of Lester Klrschbaum aa
chemist for asphalt repair and other work
by City Engineer Rosewater was approved
and the salary for the first year fixed at
$1,000. Mr. Klrschbaum Is an Omaha man,
a graduate of the University of Michigan
and Is at present employed In the testing
laboratory of the Union Pacific. It is In
tended that he shall be a general chemical
analyst for the city on water, poisons, food
stuffs, etc., as well as asphalt and It com
position. Back' Resolatloa Expunged.

Councilman Evans. Only Eack and O'Brien
voted against the action. ,
A resolution waa adopted which dlrecta
Tsx Commissioner Fleming to bid In tax
certificates offered for sale under the scav
enger law for their full face value and In
terest, subject to Instructions from the city
attorney. In cases where other bidders offer
less. This was done to carry out an an
nounced policy of the legal department,
which believe that the full taxes and In
terest can be secured.
Walter T. Mlsner, the architect who drew
the plans for the Are engine house at Twenty-fourth
and Cuming streets, was re
quested to appear at the general committee
meeting Monday to advance Information re
garding plana for and bids upon the heat
ing plant. It is thought that the plans are
not sufficiently explicit and that the city
may get unsatisfactory service from an ex
ceedingly low proposal.
The sum of 1225 was appropriated for the
use of the Grand Army of the Republio In
properly observing Memorial day.
By resolution the Oreat Western was or
dered to comply with a contract with the
city and build a retaining wall on Sixteenth
street west of the viaduct so a to keep
filled ground from sliding down on the
street and making It almost impassible for
heavy teaming that passes over It. Council
man Hoye said the mud was axle deep.
The city clerk was Instructed to advertise
for bids for materials, tools and appliances

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
RED OAK, la., May 2. tSpeclal Tele
gramsThe trial of Tom Dennlson, charged
with receiving stolen property, will begin
here Tuesday, May 23. Upon this charge
the state elected to prosecute first rather
than upon the charge of robbery, for which
Dennlson has also been indicted. The date
was agreed upon this morning by the at
torneys for Dennlson and the state, and
District Judge Macy, in conformity with
the agreement, made the following order In
the case:
Attorneys for the state and defendant
agreeing, trial ia set tor Tuesday, May Zl,
at o ciocR a. in,, each party reserving ine
right, ii necessary, to inane application
and showing fur a continuance without
bulng tiretudiceil bv the selection of this
date for trial. The state at this time elects
to put defendant on trial first upon the
indictment herein charging the crime ot
receiving stolen property and not upon the
indictment charging robbery.
There was absolutely no excitement Inci
dent to the arrival of Dennlson and At
torney Thomas at Red Oak, both having
come In from Omaha on the same train.
Thomas went direct to the courthouse and
Dennlson first went to the Johnson hotel,
where he met his attorney, J. M. Junkln.
In a few moments, accompanied by Mr.
Junkln. he appeared in the courtroom. It
was an hour later, during which time
Judge Macy made his charge to the newly
selected grand Jury, that the Dennlson cas
come up, and County Attorney Greenlee,
acting for the state and Attorney Junkln
for the defense, announced that they had
agteed to have the case set for the 22d and
23d. The Judge thon named the 23d in order
to allow time for the adjournment of the
Harrison county district court, as some
parties who are engaged there will be sum
moned to Red Oak to testify In the Dennl
son case. This will also allow the farmera
to huve their corn In, one attorney re
marked. Indicating that It was his belief
the Jury would be selected from out In th
rural districts. '
Create No Excitement.
The fact that Tom Dennlson and the
Dennlson case have been advertised all over
the ccuntry for the last year seems to have
made no Impression upon Red Oak, and If
any one In the town knew of the presence
of Elmer E. Thomas and Dennlson the fact
crmted no alarm and no curiosity. That
the sensational press has not penetrated
very deep Into the city of Red Oak wa
aptly Illustrated by a laughable mistake of
Attorney Bee son, who is assisting the state
in the prosecution.

WHY BIGELOW DEFAULTED
Friend of Bank Prealdent Say lie
Loat No Money la
W heat Deal.
MILWAUKEE, May 2.-Th first au
thentic statement In regard to the cause
of the , downfall of Frank U. Bigelow. tha
defaulting bank president, was made today
by an Intimate friend of the former banker.
In brief, Blgelow's friend attribute the
disaster to overconfldence In hla busluess
ability, which the banker did not possess.
Bigelow, his friend states, denies einphall
ally that be lost th money In a wheat
deal. He said:
If you were to ask him how the money
was sient he would be unable to tell you.
His aftairs are In a remarkable tangle,
i'o my mind 1 have no reuxon to believe
the defalcation dales back more than com
paratively a few years.
As to his alleged delalcatlon from other
banks, isn't It a banker s business to sue
that it is secured? Looking at It from a
purely business standpoint, it Is Impossible
to steal from a bank if the business of
the bank Is safeguarded. For Instance,
one company In St. Louis loaned Mr. Bige
low tou.uuo. Bigelow gave aa security
stock In the ilrat National bank worth
much more. There is no reason to suppose
that he meant to defraud the St. Louis
institution. There was nothing about hiin
to indicate that he did. He paid the in
terest regularly and. as a matter of fact,
did not intend to be dishonest. He thought
he was a financier.
He kept no books and for odds and
ends of all sorts he had his mind only
as their depositories. I am sure I do not
know whether it indicates mental weak
ness on his part. 1 can but repeat he
supposed, he was a greater business man
than he waa
Just when Mr. Bigelow began to take
the bank's funds Is a matter I am unable
to determine from anything he says. When
an examination of the henk was made last
January nothing was disclosed. For all I
know It did not begin until after that time.
There was an absolute lack of system
about anything he did so far aa his own
affairs are concerned.

"Are you Interested 7" asked the Iowa at

'Oh, to a certain extent," replied Dennl
son, without blinking.
"I see, you are the lawyer from Omaha
whe is to look after the case," said Beeson,
Inquiringly.
"No, I guess I'm Tom Dennlson," smiled
the defendant, and the eyes ot the attorney
expressed his surprise.
Again Dennlson waa taken for a banker

The fact that the case was to be called

Dennlson was represented by J. M Junkln

Prosecuting Attorney Greenlee and R. W.
Beeson of Red Oak. While both aides were
eager to have the proviso In the court's

be ready for trial when the time cam.

CHICAGO, May 2. The death of one man
and the Injury of scoree of other waa th
Immediate result of today ' fighting be
tween the striking teamsters and the.r
sympathizers on the one side and the pollc
and the nonunion men on the other. There
were riots In all parts of the city. Men
were clubbed and stoned almost to death
within a square of police headquarters, and
five miles away men were ahot down In th
streets. At a hundred placra between these
two extremes of disturbance there were
assaults and flghte In the streets. Blood
as shed on State street. In the heart ot
the fashionable shopping district, . and
urlous riots took place almost In the door
ways of the lending hotel. Nonunion men
were pelted with stones, bricks and every
other conceivable sort of missiles. They
were dragged from their wagons, beaten,
clubbed and stamped upon. The mobs
that followed the wagons, on which they
rode were ugly In the extreme. But for tha
splendid service rendered by the police
force the list of dead would be twenty to
night Instead of one.
In return the nonunlonista, although hope
lessly outnumbered in every struggle.
fought desperately. In several Instance
they drew their revolvra and emptied
them Into the crowd that pressed around
their wagona, pelting them with stones end
threatening their Uvea. The colored
driver especially were quick with their
weapons. Large numbers of the nonunion
drivers carried heavy clubs, and they
swung them with terrific effect throughout
the day. As far as can be ascertained to
night, the list of Injured number In the
neighborhood of fifty, but It 'Is 'ar short
of being accurate. Many men who were
In the mobs that attacked the wagons
went down before the cluba of the police
and the wagon guards, but they were car
ried away by their friends and there la
no chance of learning their names or ot
even fcuesr-lng at their number.
The nntlfiok for tomorrow is for mor

"Tne . Lnk' ' Mjtuttinm act"' wit.a(i aa- -
aumed a peculiar aspect today and
tonight th Interests which have
been opposing the striking teamsters ar
not as united aa heretofore. The cause
of thla alight dissension In tha Team Own
ers' association, which has contract with
the railroads, and many of th large flrme
throughout the city to transfer their mer
chandise. Until today It was supposed
that the Employers' association and their
allies were firmly bound together in th
fight for supremacy against tha team-stars.
The Team Owners' association, which em
ploys none but union teamsters, flatly re
fused this afternoon to make deliveries to
any of rhe firms now Involved In th
strike, when ordered to do ao by the Em
ployers' association. When the employer
received this ultimatum, they notified the
Team Owner that unless they recognised
the request that no discrimination be made
in deliveries, an effort would bo mad to
have all ' existing contracts between tha
Team Owners and the bUBlnesa housea and
the railroads cancelled.
Yesterday tha Employers' Teaming asso
ciation sent word to th large team own
era that they desired to know where they
stood in the present fight. Many of the
membera ot the teaming aasoc.lation have
contracts for the delivery of coal with
the team owners, who have so far failed
to make any deliveries sine tha com
mencement of the strike. The team owner
yesterday would not give a deflnit leply
a to what could be expected of them.
This afternoon at the Union League club a
meeting was held between representative
of the Employers' association and tha
large team owners.
Railway Men Keep Out.
It was the desire of the members Of th
Employers' association to bring aa much
pressure to bear upon tha team owner a
possible, and with this view they had in
vited to the conference representatives of
the railroads entering the city. The team
owner stated thlr position exactly. They
would not attempt to doll ver coal to any
firm where a strike Is now In progress.
giving as reasons for their refusing that
their own men would b called out and
they would be Involved In the trouble with
which they considered they had no d'reot
concern. They were Informed that ir they
would not make deliveries thulr contrecte
with the business houses amounting to
millions of dollars annually, would ba can

however, and they persisted In their re
fusal to take part In the strike. Thb rail
road men, contrary to the hopes of th
members of the Employers' association did
not exert the Influence on the team owmrs
that was expected. They took practically
the same stand, declaring that the fight
waa something into which tha railroad
did not properly enter, that they ha con
tract with the team ownnra, that these
contracts were at present being fulfilic-l to
their entire aatiafactlon and they could
aee no reason why the railroads should be
dragged into the struggle.

conference, and after leaving th club h
