Hostilities Rreak Out Anew Between
Claimants of th Omaha
Ship.
Hostilities have again broken out with
the navy on the Missouri, tri which the
battleship Omaha and her consort, the
barge Louise, figure ominously.
Samuel H. Oregory of Alton, III., the
owner of the battleship Omaha and barge,
has brought a suit In chsncery In tfle
United States circuit court against Charles
Jordan to abrogate the contract between
the two made In December, 1904, and a
Subsequent contract made June 29. Mr.
Gregory states In his petition that Jordan
has secured Illegal possession of the boats
under th charge that he has been dam
aged In the sum of 110,010 through some
disagreement, and the vessels were subse
quently seized by the United States
authorities under a writ of attachment
growing out of this litigation.
Gregory maintains he Is still the lawful
possessor of the two ships, that the captain
and crew are hired and controlled by him.
and he asks the court to set asld the
contract of December, 190t, and to cancel
the stipulation entered Into on June '9,
1907. He also asks that he be released
from Its provisions and that Jordan be
enjoined from any further benefits under
thl pretended stipulation and that Greg
ory be not required to pay th I2S0 attor
ney fee.

of Pratt.
In a heated plea In the Pratt divorce
case Tuesday morning Attorney H. W. Ma
gee of Chicago, son-in-law of ColonelTratt,
declared the case was primarily a money
case and only secondarily a divorce pro
ceeding. He contended it was Improper to
Join the divorce suit with the contest over
the property and asked the court to dis
miss the petition on that account. The
attorneys, he declared, were responsible
for the filing of the suit for prospective
attorneys' fees.
"The ante-nuptial agreement," he de
claed, "took the place of Mrs. Pratt'
Interest In her husband's estate and ahe
ought to be wiling to wait until his death
and collect the amount provided for her In
tjie agreement. If that agreement had con
tained a clause to the effect that no attor
neys' fee (hould be paid in case of a di
vorce suit this case would never have

Mr. Mages contended the court had no
right to grant Mrs. Pratt alimony pending
the hearing of the suit as ahe had property
of her own.

ROADS ARE COMING TO TAW
Illinois Central Leads in Adopting1
Through Eate.
TWO CENTS A MILE ALL THE WAY
Others Expected to Follow ana Thl
Will no Away with Getting;
Off Train at State
Line.
The Illinois Central announce that be
ginning Friday It will Bell tickets from
Omaha to Chicago at t cent a mile and
to Intermediate points at corresponding
rates. The rate clerks have been Indus
trious In preparing the tariff sheets that
the .roads might put Into effect the 2-cent
rates to apply to Interstate business.
This wss caused by peculiar circum
stances. When the legislatures passed the
laws establishing 2-cent passenger fares
In the states of Nebraska,' Illinois. Iowa
and Missouri the railroads were first going
to contest the lawe and later they decided
to let them go In without a contest and
then make a showing on the returns that
they were not compensatory.
The railroads made the law as obnoxious
a possible and forced people to rebuy
tickets at state lines and made the bag
gage proposition as difficult ns possible.
Under present conditions, when so many
persons Jump off the cars at the state lines
to get advantage of th 2-cent fares. It
makes nearly all the business of the roads
state business and boosts the business to
a state where It will be Impossible to show
any loss In revenue because of the reduc
tion of the ratea. Rat lies makes It look
like more people were traveling because of
the reduced rates.
So this has forced the railroads to hasten
the establishment of a 2-cent Interstate
rate to lessen the number of state tickets
sold. While the other roads have made no
definite announcement as to the time when
they will put In their 2-cent interstate rates,
It Is said they will quickly follow the lead
of the Illinola Central.
No Law Against Rerhecklng.
"There Is no law to stop us from re
checking baggage at the atate line on
through trains, but ,it la a physical Im
possibility to do It," said J. E. Bucking
ham, assistant general passenger agent of
the Burlington. "We would do It If we
could, but a visit to the station when one
of the heavy trains is going through
Omaha will clearly ehow we cannot. Train
No. 2 stays in Omaha for half an hour
and the baggage force has all It can do to
handle the regular baggage to get It out on
time. We have no facilities for rechecklng
on the trains and besides the reduced Inter
state rate will soon be in effect, which will
do away with the trouble. The report sent
out that some of the men said baggage
could not be rechecked for twenty-four
hours muet be erroneous, for there Is no
such rule and If a trunk fails to be checked
on a certain train It will follow on the
next train."
Several Time Change.
The Burlington announces several time
changes In the running of the branch line
trains, effective next Sunday. These
changes were made necessary because of
the general changes which were made June
9 and are part of the general lining up of
the system. Train No. 162 will leave Sterl
ing In the morning and will reach Holdrege
at 7 p. tn., connecting with Nog. 8 and f.
The east bound passenger train from .Guern
sey will leave there In the morning, ar.
riving at Bridgeport about 10:30 a. m..
there connecting with No. 301 for Denver
and the east. It arrives at Alliance about
noon. Train No. 4 Into Omaha will not run
Sunday, but instead No. 2 from Lincoln
will ' run Sunday" and make stop east of
Lincoln.

SOUTH OMAHA. July lo.-To the Editor
of The Bee: Tou have never. In the his
tory of Bee editorials, hit the bullseye
more squarely In the center than In your
editorial relative to the use of gas for car
lighting.
All experienced travelers krow that all
railroad officers know that the use of gas
for the lighting of cars 1s a relic of barbar
ism. They know that as a light, a light by
which, to read or see anything. It Is right
in the same class with the tallow dip. tlie
dip perhaps being slightly more efficient.
They also know that, from standpoint
of safety, the term "safety" Is a misnomer
and allege sorrtethlng that does not exist
In this system of car. lighting, and thiit
most generally the first thing that happens
In a wreck of a train equipped with gas
lighting Is the explosion of the gas tanks
with resultant Incineration of passengers.
Nothing but personal and selfish consider
ations on the part of railroad officers have
been responsible for the continued use of
this light on cars, one of the forms of
"Internal graft." J. K. MU.LIGAN.
Xo Ileal Estate Deal.
OMAHA. July 15. To the Editor of The
Bee: You are quite right In saying that the
people of Douglas county will not stand
for any patched up court house. You
should have ndded, too. that they will not
stand for any real estate deal In connec
tion with a new court house. All admit
that the present building has been out
grown and that a new and modern building
Is needed In its place. I believe the tax
payers, too, are ready to authorize the
spending of the money required in any
reasonable sum. They want a good build
ing and they want It centrally located, and
no more centrally located place Is available
on which to build than the present court
house square. The argument that this site
1s too good for a court house Is flimsy. The
best site will not h too good for a million
dollar public building and any scheme to
sell the present court house square and
buy somewhere else would look altogether
too much like a Job. TAXPAYER.
SALOON MEN GIVEN HEARING
Ask Bonrd Not to Revoke License for
Lifting the Lid on
andny.
The board of fire and police commis
sioners listened to arguments Monday
night by Attorneys Zelgler and Judge
Berka as to why the liquor license of
Johanek Brothers, who run a saloon at
Fourteenth anC William street should not

and fined J100 before the police magistrate
for selling liquor on Sunday, and fearing
that the hoard would carry out Its former
announcement that It would cancel the
license of any saloon keeper found guilty
of selling liquor on Sunday, Johanek broth
er were there with their attorney to pro
tect against' any such proceedings. The
attorney contended that Johanek broth
era, to whom trie license waa granted,, had
not been eotivjctefl or fined for selling
liquor, but' that one George Johanek had
old the "liquor as an Individual. Seeing
that plea would , not worn the attorneys
appealed to the board for clemency, in
sisting that their clients had not been
notified of the board's decision to revoke
licenses when such offenses were com
mitted. The board withheld its decision
until a later data.
Charges against Patrolman E. J. Zlnk
for drunkenness on duty were read and
