Omaha's request for extension of stop over privileges at Omaha to classes of tickets ton which stopovers are not now allowed has been turned down by the West ern Paaaenger association. Any doubt In the minds of local men an to the action taken by tne association at Its meeting at Lake Charles. La., Januiy 15, has been dispelled by the following letter to Com missioner Onlld of the Commercial club fTora ben E. MacLeod, chairman of the aaaoclatlon : Referring to your favor of January 24. which retrrred to your action of laat No vember ou behalf of the commercial inter ests and real eHtate men of Omaha for topover privileges on the different classea vt tickets reading through Omaha: Aa advised you. thla quextlnn waa con aldered at regular meting of thla aaeocla- tlon held at LaMe l hHNea, La., January u, 1h07, together with almllitr applications iron several other cities for the aame cortoesalon. Humphreys' ScTcnty ScYca Cures Colds and o)flo) The matter waa a-lven very careful thought and fullv dlscuesed. it being the aense of the meeting that auch atopover privilege could not be accoroea wunoui creating unjustifiable discrimination, and that therefore the application must oe re spectfully declined. In transmitting thla Information we think It entirely proper to state that Interested lines are disposed to grant anytning con sistent with the law and established cus toms, but in thla particular matter It waa nor reit tnat tne concession aaicea couia, o consistently granted.

A local business man said he had been told by a railroad man the association was disposed to look with disfavor on Omaha because the practice of ticket scalping had not been entirely suppressed here.j Oerrlt Fort, assistant general paaaenger agent of the Union Pacific. aayS that, so far as the railroads can determine, ' the Injunction In Omaha against ticket scalping is effective and the practice has been redaecd, to minimum. General Paaaenger' Agent Lo- mas confirms the statement. Mr. Fort had expected to attend the meet' Ing of Iake Charles and make a fight for Omaha, but was taken 111 on the way and had to return home. What Omaha asked waa to be put on the same basis with Denver, which, seems to have stopover privileges on tickets In both directions. It especially asked stopovers on tickets to Colorado and Utah points, the same as It has to California points. ' . Mr. Fort say a tbeae tickets have atop- over prlvllegea in fact, though not In name. aa two days beyond requirements ars given to reach the destination.

Soldiers Gay No Arm. Fieost Were Heard at Biowniville. ' OFFICERS WILL TESTIFY AS TO THIS FACT Negroes Say . Kragr-Jorvensoa and prlag-eld Rifles Make Different Report from Other Gone Senators Intereated. WASHINGTON, Feb. . The Brownsville Inquiry by the senate committee on mili tary affairs may continue at Intervals for several months. Many men for whom sub poenas havs been Issued have not been found and others are in Tesaa attending the court-martial of the white officers of the discharged negro battalion. Ths Investigation has proceeded . far enough to convince the members of the committee that the only way to get at the bottom of the affair Is by the exam ining of every man to see what he knows. Thus far only a few members of Companies B and D have been on ths stand and no evidence has been secured Indicating that these men wers guilty of the offenses charged against them. It has been brought out that Company C men had a chance to secure guns through the fact that their gun racks were broken open. The featut-. of the testimony which most Interests the members of the committee Is that all the men on the stand have said that they would be able to distinguish the report of the Springfield rifles or Krag Jorgenaen rifles from the reports of other Are arms, and most of the witnesses have said that they did not hear any army rifles. The testimony of the white officers, now under court-martial. Is being swatted on this point. Several senators, who have de clared that they believe some members of the . negro battalion were guilty of the shooting, now say their opinions would be shaken if the white officers should go on the stand and aay they could not detect reports of Springfield or Krag guna Senator Foraker has said tbat he will get at the bottom of the affair la It ahould take all summer, and H Is likely, therefore, after the adjournment of oongreaa, a subcommit tee will be named to take the testimony.

J. Conneu, attorney for" S-' E. Howell, president of the Coal exchange, Saturday morning. The motion tor a new trial was Ml ad In district court December ii, three days after Mr. Howell was convicted. Owing to the Connell con tempt case, which has been pending since then the motion has not been argued or aubmttted to the court. Mr. Connell denied that he or Mr. Stout were trying to delay consideration of the motion., The motion he said may be taken up next Saturday. ' It probably will be sub mitted without any extended argument and the defense will depend on an appeal to the supreme court for the hoped for re versal of the verdict. Firemen Settle Dlffereneea.
