"By the testimony of agents of the exprers companies it .was shown that Instead of the express companies handling small amounts of fruit, as they attempted to show In Omaha when tha hearing was held there, they are out after the business constantly and In many places their deals for fruit has Increased from 10 to MX) per cent during the last year. "Our eyes were opened to many things we did not know. We knew the express companies were dealers In fruit to some extent, but we never dreamed of the ef fort they make to get commodities for sale. Why, It was shown at the Chicago hear ing that two companies dealt In every thing from diamonds to potatoes and from watermelons to doughnuts. A witness from New Tork told of the agents of the ex press companies receiving consignments of bread and fried cakes and the fruit dealers have been enjoying the revelation. Change Their Taetlra. "Since the hearing In Omaha and Kan sas City, the express companies have changed their tactlea. Both here an at Kansas City they Introduced witnesses to -show what a small amount of business they were doing In the way of selling fruit and commodities. In C f 'ago they had, changed completely and had testimony to Justify their demoralliatlon of trade, by explaining that they had developed the fruit growing Industry and helped growers to find a market for their products. While Id Omaha they Introduced a witness from Blair to show what small consignments they received to be sold by agents and made the business look as thbugh It was so insignificant It could not do the fruit dealers harm, they reversed the whole thing at Chicago, when they had estimates of the business dene at Calhoun, just ten miles below Blair, showing tha great In crease In orders of tha express company and called attention to the way they had developed the fruit raising at Calhoun. "An Oxark mountain arple grower told of the large amount of apples which he had been selling direct to the express com panies, and showed checks he had received from thetr agents for his fruit, while a Kansas blackberry , grower said that tbs 1 express company had purchased his entire crop, and when time came to make de liveries thu company foanti It was losing money on the berries and turned them back on him. "Another feature of the business which was uncovered at Chicago, showed that In stead of the express company shipping to agents In the city to sell on a competitive market, the fruits have been shipped to Chicago as well as the butter, egjs and poultry and sold to one firm." Mr. Branch laughed at the watermelon story which was told by a witness for the express companies, who came In , from Indi ana to testify that he had shipped some watermelons to Omaha, receiving returns of 00 cents pc crate for those sent to the commission house and 90 cents for those sold to the express companies. Mr. Branch said the incident may have been true, but did not have any bearing on the case, or prove that the express companies were not doing a business in the sale of commodities which Injured legitimate trade. "We have found Instances In our In vestigation," he said, "which showed where a shipment of fruit was made to an ex press agent and one to a dealer at the fame time. The express companies have every advantage and have sold out the fruit shipped to them. In many Instances, before the fruit consigned to a dealer was delivered." Following tha hearing Mr. Branch asked for a hearing at some point In Texas. The express companies objected seriously to another hearing, but Inspector Brown was with the fruit dealers and a hearing will be held January , 190(, probably at Fort Worth. It Is the hope of the fruit dealers to place sufficient evidence before the senate and house committees to secure the amend ment of the Interstate commerce law and Include express companies In the provision which makes It unlawful for common car riers to deal In commodities.

Bankers are expecting dally a call from the comptroller of the currency for bank statements.

That everything will be found in the best of condition when the reports tire made Is the assertion of Omaha bankers, who say they would Invite a report that the public may see a sworn statement of every bank in the city. Rumors that the report had been or dered forwarded to the comptroller with out publication In newspapers were In dignantly denied byjDmaha bankers, who declare that no report could be a legil statement which was not published. The bankers are Joyful over the show. Ing of resources made by the state and savings banks of Chicago In their state ment to the auditor of Illinois. "The statements show how well pre pared the big financial Institutions of ths country are," said a banker. "The banks of Chicago have passed safely through the flurry. The statements show an ag gregate Increase In cash resources of 114.000,000. In soma Instances . the de posits have fallen off, but the cash on hand in every bank Is greater than at the time of the statement made In August" Pumrhrey entered a second plea of not tfullly.

Judge Troup Friday afternoon' overruled the motion of the attorneys for Charles Pumplirey to quanh the special venire of Jurois summoned to tske the place of the regular panel. Judge Troup held the court had the right to Summon the venire, as the regular panef been declared Illegal. A mol'm to quash the Information in the 1 uiiyLity ca was also overruled and Because Charles Hathburn, a stockman from Hulett, Wyo., laugbed he got film- flammed out of 174 by O. M. Scott and two , other men In a pool room Thursday after-f noon, Rathburn Is unable to locate the pool room or the three other men, but he located Scott, and the latter la at the police station. Rathburn saya he was watching the men play pool and one of them missed a shot that jooked easy to him. He laughed and one of the men offered to bet him he wouldn't make the same shot In three trials. To show his good faith the man who made the proposition pulled out a roll of bills, which ha said contained $74. and asked Rathburn to cover It, and Rathburn did cover It, putting up the money In one of the trio's hands. He then took a cue and made tha shot, but when he turned around to claim his money the stakeholder wss gone. The police are looking for the other men.

TEDDY'S MUST BE THE LABEL Flay Bea.ru Are Slated for Valoa Brand and This la Jfo Pa. tare Faka. Teddy bears must wear union labels In the future and this Is no nature fake. Omaha dealers In tha Theodore bruins have received word from a large manufac turer In Brooklyn that a strike has been railed and the first Teddy Bear union will be organised, and somewhere on the soft fur of the bears, a union label will be sewed. Pending the organization of the bear makers' union, the particular variety may be as hard to secure as the real live ones for which President Roosevelt hunted the reed patches of Louisiana. It Is explained that the Teddy bear In dustry Is new and the workers never thought of organizing a union, until some new workers were hired a few days ago. It was found that the Inexperienced work ers made the bears look like Jack Lon don's White Fang or Jim Jeffries' bulldog. They were devoid that human expression, given the original Teddy bears, and many of them resembled Tlge, the hero of comic supplement literature. Now the children of the west will ba compelled to wait until the Amalgamated Union of Teddy Bear workers can complete the organization and find a place hehlnd the delicate ears of the little hears to pasta tha label.
