Omaha's request for extension of stop

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

Referring to your favor of January 24.
which retrrred to your action of laat No
vember ou behalf of the commercial inter

Aa advised you. thla quextlnn waa con

The matter waa a-lven very careful

aense of the meeting that auch atopover
privilege could not be accoroea wunoui
creating unjustifiable discrimination, and
that therefore the application must oe re

It entirely proper to state that Interested

A local business man said he had been
told by a railroad man the association was
disposed to look with disfavor on Omaha

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

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. ' .

of the monastery against Brother Aug

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.

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

- "We will be ready to submit the motion
for a new trial In the Howell caae at any
time the court and the other side are
rdy." declared W. 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.
