STRANGE LETTER PICKED UP Written by Man Whom Poatomce Watchman ee, bnt Ttot In Time to Arrest. Two men were observed stand'ng st the writing desk at the south end of the post office corridor, appirently writing, Sunday at 1 p. m. One of them at least, was writ ing. He was a perfect strsnger, about 45 years of agei and well dressed. After com pleting his letter, he addressed an envelooo. Incautiously placed the addressed Envelope In his pocket, accidentally dropping the let ter that he had- written. He went out the south door Immediately. The parly standing by him Incidentally picked up the dropped letter and calling to Watchman Morse, then In the corridor, handed him the letter, telling him It had been dropped by the man who had Just gone out. A moment later the strsnger hurriedly entered. In sp perent excitement and was pointed out to Watchman Morse as the man who dropped the letter. The strsnger Immediately lnrn.4 m A ., h - ' - I .U.tlCU KI'U II Ul I I'.U VU, HIT. 11 III 1 1 H M 1 1 1. Morse started after him to return th letter to him, but the man had dlsappeired In the crowd and Morse could not see him. Mr. Morse had not read the letter up to this time, but after glancing through It took It to Postmaster Palmer. The letter, which Is still In the postmaster's possession, reads: OMAHA. Neb., Nov. 17, lfrrj Dear Bro: The plan made Is good ami shmild get him easy. The people all over this country w'll feel so good when he Is removed thst the law will not care to get the man ho did the Job.

Bvt you can rad between the lines. Wire me at same No. Chicago. And be careful what you ssy. Everything Is now In shane to act. Be firm. J . Postmaster Palmer said In reference to the letter: "I am at a loss to know whether It Is a fake or a genuine threat. In any event, we shall look Into It thoroughly.' I oumciem importance nas Deen attached to the Incident of the mysterious letter found In the postofflce Sunday nf;ernoon to call for the closest InvestliraM'n bv a num ber of the best postofflce Inspectors In this district. It Is also probable that the mat -will be turned over to the secret service department of the government, as It does not come exactly within the province of the postofflce Inspection department. A pretty fair description of the writer of the letter has been obtained by the secret service authorities from the party who S first recovered the latter. A disposition prevailed when th letter was first found to treat the matter as a Joke or fake, but later developments wat I rant the belief that It Is the work of an I anarchist or crank and It is to be ferreted to the bottom. TECHNICALITY THE DEFENSE Lawyers for Ch-rles I'nmphrey At tack Jury List aa Basis of Their Fight. At the opening of the trial of Charles Pumphrey, charged with the murder of i Han-pak, Monday mottling, John O. Yelser (and J. P.' Breen. atteJftt'ey for Pumphrey. ' made a general attack' on the Jury list for 1S07. which, if sustained, they assert, will Invalidate all the Jury. Verdict since the beginning of the Februar- term of court. They filed a plea In abatement and a mo tion to quash the Jury panel now serving, ! on the grovnd that tbe list from which It and all the other Jurypane'i since Feb ruary have been drawn was not made up according to law. The objection to the. Jury list Is that It Is not made up from the various precincts In proportion to the number of votes cast at the preceding election, but that some wards' and precinct are d'scrlmlnated against In favor or other. Pumphrey's attorneys contend the law directs that the commissioners In making tip the list shall take not loss than' one-fifteenth of the number of voters from'each precinct, and If mora are taken, the proportion between tho precincts shall be maintained. They assert the Second commissioner dis trict, consisting of theFlrt, Second. Thin' t and Tenth wards, has been given less than Its proportion of Jurors. According to the figures presented In the motion the First I commlss'onor d'strlct oast 6 047 votes at the November (190) election, and had 642 names on the Jury list, or 10.6 per cent of tho per cent of the n'-mber of voters This Is not only less than the proportion, accord ing to the attorneys, but It Is less than vote. The Second district cast 4.627 votes j and had 2M names on the Jury list, or 6.6 i one-fifteenth of the number of voters In j the precincts. The attorneys contend that this Invall dates the Jury panel which reported foi duty this morning, and they insist that neither this psnel nor any other drawn from the 1907 Jury list Is competent to try a case, ah me juries a'nee r eoruary nav been drawn from this list. Arguments of the motion occupied all of the morning session of court A number of spectators were present to w'tness the trial, among them waa Tom Ah Bat a nephew of the Ynurdered Chinaman.

Joe and Kan sas City. "We are going to take no half measures at Kansas City Novomrr 21. when the suit of the wholesale Jobbers of Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansas City, known as the Missouri river rate case, comes on for hear ing before Interstate Commerce Commis sioners Prouty, Clark and Hat lan," sshl John L Webster, who Is handling the caso j before the commissioners for the Jobbing Interests of the three cities. "We am going to combat the theories which have been accepted aa true for twenty-flve years simply because .the railroads have said they were true. On of these Is the In sistence of the railroad companies that cheap rates to St. Paul and Minneapolis were due to water competition nnd the com petition rf tie Canadian railroads. Inv stl a tlon has disclosed the truth Is rates to St Paul and Minneapolis have been made by the American railroads through their traf fic managers and that the Canadian Pa cific and Soo lines hsve adjusted their rates to conform to the rates on the Amer ican railroads and have recognized the rates on the American railroads as being the standard and the talk of water compe tition la but a pretense. Saving; of Million Dollar. "This suit Is one which Involve a esvlng from teno.OOO to $1,000,000 a year to the Job- v- (v,. ...i 1. h. ! bers of the tnree cltle" "nd PP " tne must, important ana iar-reacnirg suit inn haa ever come before the Interstate Coro- merce commission. This suit was Instituted because the railway companies by their tariff sheets have for years been giving to St Paul and Minneapolis on the north, and to 'St. Louis on the south, an advantage over Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansas City of about 32 cents per 100 pounds on first class merchandise, and a like ratio on second, third, fourth and fifth class. Under the present ates, a Jobbing house In St Paul or Minneapolis, doing a business of t5.CKO.000 a year, has a saving over a like business house In Omaha, St. Joseph or Kansas City of nearly $40,000. "The tables from the present tariff sheets show that St. Paul and Minneapolis have a discriminating, advantage over a large territory Immediately surrounding Omaha. St. Joseph and Kansas City, and that St Louis has a great advantage over Kansas City In a large territory lying to the south west of Kansas Cly. What these Jobbers want Is that the rates shall be so read justed, not that Omaha, 8t. Joseph and Kansas City shall have an advantage, but that they shall be put on an equality with Minneapolis and 8t. Paul on the north and St. Louts on the south. Discrimination Against Omaha. "We have lately discovered that the rail roads, which had been refusing to gtvo Omaha, St Joseph and Kansas City the reduction of 32 cents per hundred pounds on first class so aa to put these cities on an equality with St Paul and Minneapolis, have, as a matter of fact, for at least two years, been- carrying height from Chicago through Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansas City on 'the same rates that freight haa been carried to St. Paul and Minneapolis, but have been discriminating against Omaha," Bt Joseph, and Kansas City in this that the St Paul and Minneapolis Jobber is entitled to receive his goods at the low rate and then reship through the whole north west territory by adding thereto the local rates west from St. Paul and Minneapolis. This privilege has been denied to Omaha, St Joseph and Kansas City. The low rate through Omaha, St. Joseph and Kan- bus City has only been given to the shipper from New York City, who routes his good through Chicago, Omaha, Bt Joseph or Kansas City, but makes the folnt of destination Montana, Washington, and northwestern territory generally. Plea of the Railroad. The allroads, in Justification of thl dis crimination. Insist that if they should reduce the rates to the basis of Bt. Paul and Minneapolis on freight to Oms ha, St. Joseph and Kansaa City and permit of reconslgnment on the low rate, that it would result In reducing the through rates to western point generally and would, therefore, be a disadvantage to the Omaha, Bt. Joseph and Kansas City Jobber. There 1 no truth In this pretense, for the fact Is that the said railway comi antes do today carry thetr merchandise to all these northwestern points at the reduced rates, whereby the New York Jobber can ship goods through Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansas City In competition with the Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansaa City In competition with the Omaha, St Joseph and Kansaa City 'Jobbers destined to all the northwestern slates as far as th Paclflo coast, and have n advantage over Omaha, St Joseph and Kansas City of 32 cents per hundred pounds on first class goods. The result Is that the present railroad rate are . a discrimination against Omaha, Bt Joseph . and Kansas City, not only In favor ot, St Paul and Minneapolis, but In favor of the New York Jobbers, and we are only asking equality, not favoritism. What Other Point Get. "The railroad tariff sheet also disclose that goods are ahlpped from New York to Mississippi river point from Dubuque on the north to East St Louis on th south, at a rate of 87 cents per hundred pounds, first clasa, and of which rate the railroads from New York to Chicago retain 72 cants and a fraction. That means that freight Is carried from Chicago to these Mississippi river point for 14 cent and a fraction per hundred pounds on first class. On th same basis merchand'se should be carried from Chicago to Missouri river points, Omaha, St. Joseph and Kansas City, for 38 cents and a fraction per hundred pounds Instead of 76 cents, as now charged. x There are no such dissimilarity of conditions between Chicago and the Mississippi river and th 'Mississippi and Missouri river as to Justify these extraordinary chargea between th Mississippi and the Missouri rivers." A continuation of the Kansas City hear Ing will be had at Chicago, November 26.
