opposition to the petition had not been
alven a fair charlce and on the grounds
that It was against the best Interest of the
city. An attempt will be made to pass If
ever his veto.
Mar Have Let Criminal Go.
A man, supposed for a time to be con
nected In some way with the murder of
George R. Grlswold, the Insurance man
whose body was taken from the river hero,
was arrested last week and subsequently
released for lack of evldenoe. The man was
a negro employed In a barber shop and
was heard to make remarks that led the
officers to believe that he knew considerable
about the crime. Since, bis release he has
left the city and bis whereabouts are un
known and now the officers are again look
ing for him. After his arrest he was put
through the sweat box, but nothing ascer
tained from him. Since the discovery of
the body of Frank Callahan, whose death
In all Important details corresponds to
that of Grlswold, there is a strong belief
that one person committed both murders.
Frank Callahan lived at Peosota, la., and
eame to this city aver a week ago. He was
last seen at the Rock Island depot hers
Tuesday night, September 19, near the same
depot where Grlswold was last seen Just
one wtft before. His father came here
the latter part of last week to search for
him and the search was .rewarded by the
discovery', of bis body In "the Dei Moines
river last' night,, a little farther down the
stream than where Oriswold's waa found.
One pocket' was slit open, and his watch,
two pocketbooks and. $2$. and all his valu
ables were gone. The, police claim It was
suicide'. ', e -j .

Cola.
- J. A. Rogers was arrested by Detectives
Haltman and Lahey on the Identification
of A. li. Wilson of Minneapolis, who says
that Rogers is the man who buncoed him
out of $13 last Sunday night. Wilson said
he was taking in the town with Rogers,
both being strangers In the town, sup
posedly. Finally they strolled down to the
Douglas street bridge, where they met a
"Ruben," whom they started In to fleece.
The "Ruben" had plenty of money and
was free with It. They began to match
dollars, and Wilson entrusted his money
to Rogers, who after several passes man
aged to lose $1S to the "Ruben." He then
tried to get Wilson to put up $30, saying
he would soon get even. Wilson was sus
picious and hung to the remainder of his
coin, and yesterday evening spotted his
companion of the night before.
He said: "Wilson is not my name, but
It Is all the name you will get. I don't
want my friends to know what a fool I've
been. I've been In Minneapolis and thought
I was pretty slick myself, and I have
bested several fellows. It makes me feel
cheap to think I let myself be worked here

BEST CROP REPORTS IN EAST
Uiiea Paslfio 8tatistki Qaotta on Chicago
Board of Trade,
REGARDED AS AUTHORITY 9H EXCHANGE
Plana for New 'hops Are In Hands
of Engineers and Construction
Wilt Start Soon as
Possible.
Officials of the passenger department of
the Union pacific are gratified over the
recognition that the crop reports which are
prepared by the advertising department of
the road are receiving In all of the big ex
changes of the enst. In a recent interview
in Chicago President Jackson of the Chi
cago Board of , Trade volunteered this
statement:
"Union Pacific crop reports on Kansas
and Nebraska have been quoted on the
Chicago Board of Trade for the last three
years and are regarded as the best that
reach us."
In view of the controversies at Wash
ington in regsrd to crop statistics, it is of
considerable satisfaction to the officials of
the Union Pacific to know they have the
reputation of furnishing the most accurate
and correct statements. These are obtained
from correspondents selected with care
and published regularly by the advertis
ing department of the .Union Pacific.
Plana for Srevr Shops.
Plans for the new shops of the Union
Paclfio are being preuared by the engineer's
office, and it Is planned to begin the con
struction as soon as possible. The shops
have been needed for some time to meet the
Increased demands upon the department
presided over by W. R. McKeen, Jr., and
the first thing E. II. Harriman noticed on
his recent visit to the shops was that the
additional ones had not been built. His
remark was: "1 thought I told you to go
ahead and build some new shops." This
was enough of a cue for General Manager
Mohler.'and he Immediately set the wheels
In operation to erect the needed buildings.
Parsimony will not be displayed In the
construction of these shops, which will be
the most modern and up-to-date in the
country. The latest improvements in every
department will be Installed, and no ex
pense will be spared in giving Omaha the
most complete locomotive shops available.
The first improvement will call for an
expenditure of $370,000 and this will be
followed Immediately by further improve
ment, making a grand total for the next
twelve months of $700,000. It Is not alone
the money which will be spent in the
erection of the shops, but also the large
Increase which it will make In the number
of skilled laborers required in the shops
that Omaha people are gratified over.
Motor cars will be constructed In the new
shops and this will require the employ
ment of many additional men. All of the
Harriman lines are calling upon Mr.
Mohler for one of the new motor cars
and these have been promised to some, as
soon as the shops can turn them out.
Ties for Ashland Cnt-Off.
Thirty cars of ties have been received
by the Burlington road at Council Bluffs
for the Ashland Cut-Off, the track to be
laid at once. Track laying haa started
, . ., . ... .
at the Sioux City end of the line and as
most of the grading Is nearlng completion.
the track will be put down fast. Accord
ing to a dispatch in The Bee Monday, the
route of the Cut-Oft will be changed to
run direct from Fremont to Omaha In-
stead of branching off at some point I J.", responsible for the acts of the

fess to know nothing concerning the rumor.
Ninth Street Trnek.
The Ninth street track of the Union Pa
clfio is nearly completed on the west side
of the street and work on the east side will
be Started aa soon as the other is finished.
The track will be put to Immediate use
by the lumber yards of Ninth street, which
are now compelled to handle their lumber
by wagon. This track has been con
structed In a most substantial manner with
the heaviest of rails and la being repaved
between the rails.
Railway Notes and Personals.
C. E. Spens, general freight agent of the
Burlington, has returned from a trip over
the road.
The Illinois Central brought 300 Iowans
to Omaha on the Bpecial cheap rate ex
cursion which reached Omaha Sunday
morning. The excursionists were permitted
to remain in Omaha two days, the special
returning Monday evening at 6 o'clock,
thus Riving all a chance to visit the sights
around Omaha on Sunday and lo Bhup all
day Monday.
Burlington crop reports from the Wy
oming district of the Burlington railroad
show that the corn on the Alllanco di
vision Is entirely out of danger of frost.
On the Sterling division the corn Is ma
turing fast and the yield above the av
erage. The crop of potatoes also shows
a larger acreage and yield above the av

GET POWER.
The Supply Comes from Food.
If we get power from food, why not
strive to get all the power we ennT That

Poor fuel makes a poor fire, and a poor
fire Is not a good steam producer.
"From not knowing how to select the
right food to fit my needs, I suffered
grievously for a long time from stomach
troubles," writes a lady from a little
town In Missouri.
"It seemed as it I would never be able
to find out the sort of food that was best
for me. Hardly anything that I could
eat would stay on my stomach. Every at
tempt gave me heartburn and filled my
stomach with gee. I got thinner and

skeleton and In time was compelled -to
keep my bed.
"A few months ago I was persusded to
try Grape-Nuts food, and It had such
good effect from the very beginning that
I have kept up its use ever since. I was
surprised at the-ease with which I digested
It. It proved to be Just what I needed.

Comment of Norwegian Press.
CHRISTIANA, . Norway, Sept. 26 The
agreement reached at Karlstad was pub
lished here today.. The papers got out
extras and crowds thronged the streets.
The first Impression was favorable to the
agreement.
The Intelllgenssdiern, says that the result
is disappointing and the advantages which
the arbitration treaty anould yield can
not be equal to the concessions made by
Norway.
That the Convention will undoubtedly be
ratified by the Norwegian Storthing and In
all probability by the Swedluh Rlksbag Is
the belief of the Aftenposten, which adds:
The Independence of Norway has been
won at the cost of some sacrifices which
all of us would like to have been spared,
but It must not be forgotten that tho
prlnelpnl condition demanded by Norway,
the dissolution of the union, has been
attained.
Favornbly Received In Sweden.
STOCKHOLM, Sept. . Almost without
a dissenting voice the people of Sweden,
so far as can be Judged by the opinions of
the press here and elsewhere, accept with
satisfaction the terms of the agreement be
tween Norway and Sweden. The general
sentiment Is voiced by the Demokraten,
which in Its leading editorial says:
Our principal objects, arbitration and the
demolition of the frontier fortifications, hav
ing been obtained we trust that everybody
in both countries will recognise that the
two Scandinavian people each need each
other's friendship and the agreement will
bring much happiness to both.

COSGROVE HEADS COMMITTEE
Donglii County Democrats Orgenlii After
Some Preliminary Sowing.
BRYANITES UNABLE TO CONTROL MACHINE
Jaekaenlan Crowd strong Enongh to
Pnsh Its Plan Thro a eh and Klee
tlon Comes Very Easy
After Start.
Expectations of a scrap In the organisa
tion meeting of the new democratic county
central committee at the I'axton hotel
last night were fully realised, but a new
machine with Frod H. Cosgrove at the
throttle was safely put together and the
wheels started. It was one of the biggest
democratic - committee meetings held In
years, there being only sixteen absentees
and some of these due to the fact that
vacancies existed In precincts where a
committeeman was not put up for pri
mary nomination. A determined effort was
made by the old Douglas County Dem
ocracy crowd to postpone the organisation
until Saturday on the plea that the country
members had not had time to receive no
tices and attend the session, but they lost
out by a vote of 36 to 23.
Deputy City Comptroller Fred H. Cos
grove was elected chairman of the com
mittee and II. B. Daniel secretary. This
was practically all the business done, ex
cept the appointment of a committee of
five, composed of J. J. Mahoney, J. A. Rlne,
Dan Gellus, W. J. Dermody and W. 8.
Shoemaker, to recruit candidates for Jus
tice of the peace and constable and report
at the next meeting at 1 o'clock Saturday
afternoon.
Neither Cosgrove nor Daniel had any real
opposition. 'Joe Rapp withdrawing his name
as a candidate for secretary. J. Plckard
of Douglas was mentioned as a candidate
for chairman, but his friends made
scarcely any effort, perceiving that It was
all fixed for Cosgrove.
Coscrove's Political Career.
After several years of effort Cosgrove
finds himself In a position to dictate the
means and methods of the county politics
of his party. As chairman of the con
gressional committee three years ago he
was successful with O. M. Hitchcock under
conditions whereby Hitchcock could hardly
fall. Two years ago as vice chairman
Cosgrove managed a county campaign that
landed the democratic office holders in the
court house. He has been a leader In the
Jacksonlan Club for years and Is an ardu
ous worker In politics. During the last
presidential campaign with others he tried
to swing the state In line for Parker, lost
out and made many local enemies. Judg
ing from expression last night the old
Douglas county bunch and the rampant
Bryanltes may find It hard to stomach
the new chairman.
Louts J. Platti did not make his threat
ened appearance to eat up Cosgrove. The
minority he should have led lacked or-
, sanitation, direction and a candidate.
Andy Gallagher presmea as temporary
chairman and Art Anderson as temporary
secretary. The meeting was "exclusive"
with patriots and newspaper reporters
looking on through an open doorway.

Railroads Here nnd Abroad.
OMAHA. Sept. 8J.-To tha Editor of The
Bee: In a recent Issue of The Bee Gen
eral Manderson makes some comparisons
between horns railways and similar man
agement In Europe.
First In Importance among the gross
misstatements comes the assertion that
state-owned railways in Europe pay no
tales. There are no countries specified
where this state ef affairs exists, but to
take as an example the Prussian roads,
which are owned by the government. It is
well known that they have turned Into the
national treasury for years past from
I70.0nn.ooo to sn.000,000 per annum over the
cost of operating expenses, which surplus
caused a reduction of the national tsxes
to Just that extent, and this has been
effected In the face of sweeping reduc
tions In both freight and passenger rates
on almost every mile of road In the
country.
This assertion as to European roads not
paying taxes Is made with poor grace from
the representative of a Nebraska road
which pays practically no municipal taxes
and has for over a quarter a century
shirked the payment of state taxea except
when the assessing board made the total
taxes a bagatelle.
As to seridents on Prussian railways as
compared with home roads, and also on
English roads, reliable statistics show that
accidents are ef rare occurrence and when
they take place on English lines the sur
viving relatives of parties killed are paid
about three times the amount which west
ern railways see fit to pay. The Burlington
road In Nebraska, thanks to a legislative
enactment friendly to railways, can kill
passengers at a maximum penalty of $5,000
per capita, but It Is a notorious fact that
such cases where gK.000 has been paid with
out a lawsuit to the relatives are as rare
as hen's teeth.
Take, for example, the wreck at Logan a
few years ago which resulted In the death
of a score or thereabouts of Union Pacific
employes and the more or liss serious In
Jury of a similar number. It waa a matter
of current talk In Omaha that the road
which was responsible for the accident
settled death losses at about 12.600 each,
and that the total dsmages paid did not
exceed the sum of 16,000. Claim agents
openly boasted of their success In set
tling claims by threats of litigation and
the promise of fighting suits to the last
ditch. But because this gives employment
to railroad attorneys at 115.000 per annum
General Manderson says that this system
Is better than government claim bureaus
on European railway systems where losses
are adjusted without litigation.
If the railways continue their present
policy of fighting equal taxation In Ne
braska the policy of government ownership
will be forced to "ornament" the platforms
of every political party In this state as well
as the populist. WALTER BREEN.
Seconds Dr. Miller.
OMAHA, Sept. 25.-TO the Editor of The
Bee: I want to voice the sentiment of the
large majority of the city and thank Dr.
Miller, who In your paper of 26th denounces
the Inhuman treatment of a little 10-year-old
boy by four female teachers of Train
school, three of them holding him while
a fourth belabora him with a piece of rub
ber hose.
. We trust Mr. Daniels will follow this up
and if the facts are as narrated in an
evening Journal we trust these teachers
will be dismissed from the service of the
Board of Education as unworthy of their
place.
There has been too much of this lately
and let' us 'find oat whether we are living
in darkest Africa or enlightened America.
SAM'L BURNS.
Mancvao Explains.
OMAHA. Sept. 26. To the Editor of The
Bee: In your paper recently you have
had several Items concerning Joseph Mo
reno and his attempt to commit suicide,
in which you have repeatedly stated that
he is the father-in-law of Napolean Man
cuso. This is true, but some of my friends
have been confused about the matter,
thinking perhaps I am the Mancuso In
question. Please say to the public that
Napolean Mancuso Is no relation to me
whatever; that I have no relations In
Omaha excepting my wife and children
and my parents.

Knox Touched In the Bod Lands.
Bessie Smith, a colored woman, living at
808 Dodge street, waa arrested last night
on complaint ot J. D. Knox, a salesman
of the city, who makes the charge that
she robbed him of flO. When accused of
the theft the woman offered to go to the
station at once and be searched. So the
two started for the station. On the way
they met Officer Shields, who accompanied
ihem back to the rooms. Here the woman
declared that she did not have the money;
but that Knox had it In some of his
pockets. The man began the search and
soon found the missing money In his out
side pocket. This would have ended the
matter had not Officer Shields seen the
woman slip the money into the man's
pocket. Both parties were held at the Jail.
