TITE OMATTA DAILY BEE: Tnt'ItSDAY. AFOrST 3. 100.'. CROSBY REPEATS THE PLEDGE Hill'i Agent Btaffirmi to Mr. Speni Inten tion to Boild Cut Off Into Omaha. 0. 0. IVES' SUCCESSOR ARRIVES IN CITY 'oanest 0nrnl Freight Agent In tnlted States Hectares Ha Mill Pall (or Omaha All lha Tim. C R. Fpens, the new appointed Rerienil firiaht nsent of the. Burlington linen west, who succeeds D. O. Ives, who has been ap pointed general traffic manager of the Wabash, arrivrd In Omaha Wednesday morning from Chicago to enter upon the duties r.f his new onice. For the loot two years Mr. Spens lias been assistant to Freisht Traffic Manager Crosby, in charge of the freight traffic of the entire Burling ton system. The position which Mr. Spens has held has made him entirely familiar with the greater part of the work which he Is to take up. Iss than yean of age, Mr. Spens la the youngest general freight agent In the United States. "When I left Chicago lHst evening," said Mr. Spens, "Mr. Crosby in his Instruction to me reaffirmed the statements which he made in Omaha a week ago in connection with the building of the proposed "ne rrom the Ashland cut off to Omaha. The line will be built all right, Just as Mr. Crosby outlined It. "I hope that the fact that I come as a comparative stranger to Omaha will not militate against me in any way, as I have come with the Idea of making this my home, although I only brought a small grip with me this time. I am surely going to strive to do the right thing by Omaha and hope to impress this upon those with whom I am to ronio In contact, for nothing can be accomplished except by mutual co operation. For the next two weeks I sup pose I will have to stick pretty close to this desk to lenrn the detail of the office, and then I will have more time to get ac quainted." Sew Orleans for Coffe.. New Orleans Is becoming the great Im port city for coffee," said J. W. Weltzell, freight agent of the Illinois Central, Wednesday morning, "and the reduction in rates forced upon ttie roads show they In tend to keep -It as such. A bag of coffee weighs about 130 pounds Bnd In 1S99 2T9,361 Iihks were Imported through New Orleans. In this was Increased to 1,279.133 bags, showing the enormous Increase of the busi ness. This has been brought about largely by the Importers at New Orleans, who have, realized the chances offered In the coffee business. New Orleans is so much nearer as a port of entry for the entire middle west country and the dealers there have engaged ft man who travels through this territory for the express purpose of finding thn wants of the people in this section of the country. This man was through Omaha Tuesday and makes all of the Jobbing towns on the Missouri river. He says the people of this section demand the highest giado of coffee that can be procured." Vnlon Pnoine Folder. The New York Commercial has this to say of the handsome pamphlet which the advertising department or the Union Pa cific has prepared on the Portland exposi tion: Of all the season's literature of the rail roads of the country a booklet issued by the lnhn I'actflc, Southern l'acific and the Oregon Short Line on the Iewia and Clark exposition now in Portland, Ore., must take first rank. The cover is an artistic piece or work. In subdued colors, showing lxwls and Clark discussing their dream of the then unknown northwest and exhibiting their plans of the exploration. A brief per sonal history of the two famous explorers, something of the Indian woman who helped them and an original map of the country forms the first part of the pamphlet. Railway Xotes and Personals. I W. Wakeley general passenger agent of the Burlington, returned from Denver Wednesday morning. A bill has been Introduced into the Georgia legislature making It a misde meanor for any railroad to carry passen gers on Sunday for less than the regular rates or in other words to forbid cheap excursions on Sunday. A great many Omaha people are taking advantage of the reduced rates to the north offered by the Chicago Groat Western and there la quite a colony of Omaha people at Clear I.ake where the reports come of some big catches of fish. J. C. Stubbs traffic manager of the Har rlman lines accompanied by Mrs. Stubbs r passed through the city Wednesday morn rig. Me came in on the Illinois Central Bnd left on the Overland Limited which was held for him. Mr. Stubbs had a short conference with W. It. Kelly general solicitor of the Union l'acific but did not give anything out for publication although asked as to the prospects of the Illinois Central being taken under the wings of the Harrlmun lines. He is going to Cali fornia. The Burlington has made special ras and special arrangements for hauling "a business to the meeting of the Nebra.'ka National guard at Kearney August 8 to Hi.

STRAWBERRIES CAUSE WOE Oaa Has of tanned Goods Leads to Troabla for Messenger Wsgos Driver. One box of canned strawberries caused the present trouble of J. C. Shandy, If the reports at police headquarters may be accepted. A week ago the man was arrested on the charge of larceny as bailee, the complaint being sworn to by E. O. Hoyce of the Nebraska Messenger Express, on behalf of Miss little Layton. Now another charge, that of forgery, has been filed against the .man. It Is alleged that on July 1, Bhandy was given two boxes of canned strawberries to haul for Miss Layton, one box to go to Bcotts Bluffs, Neb.,, as baggage and the other box by freight. The baggage was received at destination allrlght but nothing of the other box has been found. When questioned as to the missing box Shandy is said to have produced a freight bill sup posed to have been signed by a former employe of the local Burlington freight depot, but in reality signed by Shandy. Shandy will have a hearing In police court Friday morning. NO SICKNESS AND NO DEATH i Constable Simpson, Father of Mae Children, All In Pink of Health. Constable Ed Simpson has made a record that is enviable and which should dispel the Idea that race suicide Is gaining ground in Omaha. Twenty years ago Mr. Simpson was married. He has nine hearty chil dren, never had a death in the family and never had occasion to call a physician ex cept when the stork rang the doorbell at his home. "Plenty of Nebraska ozone, lots of sun shine, a cheerful disposition, temperate habits, pay your gas bills regularly and you have solved the problem of a long and healthy life," nays Constable Simpson. SEASONABLE FASHIOKS. ALL EXPERIENCE HE WANTS Stranger Within the City Testifies that He Is Not Pining; for Information. Stella Jordan of the bad lands has been fined 17 and costs in police court, where she was charged with larceny. The story about Miss Jordan is that one August Holder gave the woman 3 to hold for him. She held the money until she had lockjaw in the hand and the allegation Is that Holder tried in vain to transfer the money from the woman's hand to his pocket. August Holder, who is a stranger within the city walls, says his experience on the first day of August will hold him for awhile, and he was not punning when he made the statement. He looked serious. r:as. vkislgv's sooteu.q syrup has i Ksm aasd br Mttnnna of stotam for taatr kUOraa WWW Tatihiw fur u.ar ttf Yu.
