May 2. (Special. i The em ployes of the Chicago & Northwestern rail road of this city who circulated a petition to be signed by business men, shippers and citizens of York and York county, ask ing for a let-up in anti-railroad legislation and that no more petitions be made for lower freight rates on the ground that it meant a redrction of salirle to employes, did not meet with tne reception nor secure the number of signatures the officials of the railroad hoped It would get. Business men of York are not antagon istic to the railroads. They do not wish to have the railroads carry freight at cost, but they wish that the railroads would not dis ritninate agaitiFt York. At present freight on carloads of western coal that pass through York to Lincoln Is above 80 cents per ton less than the rate to York. The representative cf the company was asked to change the wording of the petition and have It read, "that if the present rates be maintained the railroad company In crease the wages of all employes at leasi Jl, per cent." and he was promised that if this was done the pethion would be signed. It is understood the railroad companies have employes in every city and town In Nebraska circulating petitions of this kind, hoping to have Influence with the State Railroad Commission and probably to be used when the next Nebraska legislature convenes.

D., May 2.-The jury In the case of Oustave Kemmell, accused of mur drrlng his wife by putting poison In breakfast food, returned a verdict of man slaughter In the first degree today. Judge Bucher immediately sentenced the defend ant to ten years In the penitentiary. A motion for a new trial will be made. for the court for a while, but after due thought the judge hit upon the happy Idea of turning the youngsters' "fun" into a pen alty. He ordered a police sergeant to take the boys back to the lot where they had been captured and make them spend a half hour In throwing stones as fast as they could pick them up. The sergeant obeyed orders to the letter, and the youngsters got enough of stone throwing to last them the rest of their lives New York Tribune. I curt Room Penalising; Fon.
