As for the approach frhm tlie O street vladucf that may be built" to connect with the prcseint Hammond plant, nothing au thoratUe" Is known here at present.; The L'nlon Stock Yards company will construct this approach when called upon to do so.

Regarding the construc tion' or this approach,' General Manager Kenyon of the Stock Yards company said last evening that he had no -Intimation from the National Packing "company Just what kind of an approach would be wanted. In other quarters it was stated that In case. the Hammond house1 Is to be. used only temporarily that ' it might not be necessary to build an approach Irem the O street viaduct to the plant.- As only a portion of the Hammond house Is to be used. It is not probable that the change from the Omaha, to the Hammond plant will Increase the working force to any great extent. Arrest sVsptctons Character. .

Shields called up Captain Mostyn on the telephone and asked about Betts. Capratn ' Mostyn replied that the Omaha ' police ' supposed Betts to be In the penitentiary at Lincoln. having been sent up from Omaha some months ago. The stockman appeared of' fended at losing, his supposed friend, but was finally pacified and loaded on a home ward-bound train.

HUNTLEY SUCCEEDS FULLER Associated Press rorrpoadeat oases !.ool Maaager for Postal Telegraph Coaspaay. ' Edward J. Nally, general superintendent of Western division of the Postal Tele- grsph company, Tuesday announced the appointment of Edwin U Huntley, as manager of the Omaha and South Omaha office of that company, which duties he will assume about December IS, succeeding C. O. Fuller, who. has msnsged the com pany's business here for the last twelve years. Mr. Huntley liss been the local represen. tatlve of the Associated Press for the last fits years. He came to Omaha thirteen years ago. accepting a position as telegraph operator for the Postal company. He was soon given the Vnlted Press wire, and later represented that Institution In Omaha for four years. When the Vnlted Press went out of bus.ness - he was given em ployment by the Associated Press as an operator holding that position for two years, when he was placed In. charge of the business on the establishment of an Office In the Board of Trade building in this city. ' f Although most of his work for the last five years has been with the newspapers, he has had opportunity also to continue his Identity with the 'telegraph business, And goes to his nev "!d with a good knowledge of the ;' reo,ulremehts of his position. ' It Is a remarkable coincidence that Mr. Huntley now takes the management of an Institution which gave him employment In a -very minor, capacity 1 when he came to Omaha. , The growth of the Postal since 'that time, ' however, has1 kept pace with general progress, and has Increased Its trunk lines circuits out of Omaha from seven to thirty, having added materially to Its connections In Nebraska and western Iowa, and completed the construction of five wires from Omaha to the Pacific coast. These latter lines have added greatly td.the facilities of the company, and are operated partly In connection with the Oriental cablea. i . 4 Omaha has become the Gate City" In reality, so far the business of the Postal Is concerned, and a number of new pro jects Is In a fair way for completion which will add materially to the Importance of tho local office of that company. . Mr, Huntley was unable to say who his successor will be, but, said he probably would come from the ranks of the Asso ciated. .Press. PANAMA CANAL FINANCES Mr. Hepbon Present!
