Only two weeks ago T. l- Pwlft & Co. bought an entire block between Fifteenth and (Sixteenth streets for a big coal yard. Not long ago Herman Brothers bought a piece of trackage property on South Thir teenth street for the erection of a large pickle and vinegar factory. And bo the development keeps on. It is only a matter of a short time, say the realty men. when the demand for trackage will puuh the denizens of the red lipht district to another pert of the city. A commercial expansion has begun in that direction and is bound to conttlnue, for trackage property along the railroad main lines Is getting scarce. One of the sales of the downtown dis trict, last week was that of a lot at the southwest corner of Fifteenth street and Capitol avenue to the Metz Bros. Brewing company by A. B. McConnell.

The council wants to force the ln terurban company to build a station at Al bright, where passengera would have to change cara to the Omaha lines and pay another nickel to get to South Omaha. "When a passenger had paid that extra nickel he might as well ride on to Omaha to do his shopping, and thus would the South Omaha merchant be shut off from a chance of selling to the residents of Fort Crook and Bellevue," said a South Omaha business man.

That awfu affliction touched a sympathetic chord li evory true heart and Induced an outpour ing of bounty more than sufficient to sue cor tho needy. In promptness and munif icence the country's response to tho call of the stricken city surpassed any slmila: draft on the people'a bounty In the history of the nation. No one, In contributing v tho fund, gave a thought as to the man ner of distribution. Immediate relief of the homeless waa the Inspiration. That the funds and supplies would be distributed honestly among those In need was taken -to tne fc.ditor of The Bee: .My Lear Blr was published after the announcement of structure erected In its place, for granted.

These conditions, however, although provoking sharp criticism, were regarded as evils Inseparably connected with the disposal of public charity and did not bring discredit on the work of thu relief committee. The ends sought were attained. That was sufficient. More serious than any charge heretofore President Roosevelt indicates that vast sums of money received through the malls and from express companies have not been accounted for. At least the missing money did not reach those charged with the dis tribution of relief, and the Inference Is that several persvns in high station pocketed the money.

If the results Justify the forecast of the dispatches It is safe to predict that the federal courts will send the grafters over the road In a hurry. The punishment will fit the crime. The f.rnnd Jnry'n Probe. Vnder the d'reetlon of District Attorney Langdon and his assistant, Francis J.

Relief Fund Partly Refunded. One of the few admirable features of the relief work In San Francisco Is detailed In a late Issue of the Columbian, the official patXT of the Knights of Columbus. This organization undertook .to raise a relief fund of $100,000 for members of the order and their families who suffered from the .apthquilke and fire. A fraoUon OVPr mm was forwarded to the relief committee of the knights. This sum was deemed suffi cient by the committee, and further con tributions were stopped at its request. t'nilor dale of September 28 the relief commltt'-e reports to tho national officers of the order: "We have relieved all the distress of our brothers whose cases were made neceBsitous by the April disaster. We feel that any cases which might present themselves In the future will come from other causes than tho late calamity and that they should be borne bv the proper local council. We wish to have It known that we learned upon Investigation that the number of applications for relief made upon our board fell far short of that upon any other fraternal organization in our midst, The knights here were among the earliest to rehabilitate. This statement la supported by the fact tint, though the knights were hit as hard as any other class of our cltl- aeiis, only lt,lo, approximately, was used by us in relief work, despite the fact of nearly $KVo being known to be at our call.

STREET RAILWAY OFFICERS Several f'hnnares Are Made, R. A. I.eanalrr llelngr Appointed As sistant General Manager. The Omaha & Council Bluffs Street Rail way company has reorganized lta force of employes for what Is considered a great strengthening of tha service because of the dividing of responsibility and of the dif ferent branches of the service.

Nash. superintendent of transportation; William Musgrave, assistant superintendent trans portation; Ii. B. Noyes, chief engineer; J. J.

The directors think the change will be for the betterment of the service, as sev eral men have been added to the staff ur.d In a short time several new rod fore men will be appointed by the superintend ent of transportation.
