And yet not all the world. There wa one place where those Vhb visited for a i lodger or shorter tlhie'Tound little to re mind them, unless by etjfrtraet, of what Christmas eve should 'mean.

This Is not the first time' I tiaVe been here." said one of them, "bat 1 do hate to be "pinched' on the nlghi before Christmas; perhaps we can get someone to ball us' out." Then the: telephone bifll rings. This Is a way the telephone at the station has. It ' rings throughout the twenty-four hours on calls of many and varied aorts. This time It Is a woman who calls. "Is this the police station? Well, I want you to find my husband right away and send him home. lie has no business out this late and It's- Christmas besides." More calls for the wagon and more men are brought In to be locked upon charges of widely varying natures. "Drunk," "drunk ananleep on the street," "suspicious char acter." "drunk and working a drunk," "begging on the street." "drunk and dis turbing the peace by fighting," are some of thettharges mnt often Seen on the big book wh(!re the recortj of those unfortunates is kept.

The two women, waking In, the captain's -office for a friend to get them out, begin to cry softly. "Will you girls behave If I let you go?" asks Captain .Dunn. They are only too glad to promise, as they dry their tears. . "All right, Tet "errf out,'" he orders, Christmas eve, you know."

The general delivery at the Omaha post office will be ' open Christmas until 10:30 a. m. and will then close for the day. The registry and stamp departments will con tinue open for the same hours. The money order office will not be open at all during the day. Two carrier deliveries will be made In the business districts In the morning and one In the residence districts.

The entire clerical force has shown a commendlble willingness to, work over hours and there has been, no congestion In the Omaha office during the Christmas rush. A number of additional clerks were temporarily employed to help out In the work this year. In excess of the extra number employed for the Christmas period last year. Assists nt Postmaster Woodard said Thursday morning: "It might be of Inter eat to Omaha people to know that there was no Omaha mall on the car of second class Christmas mall' destroyed by fire on the Union Faclfio west of Cheyenne a few ays ago.- This will dlspsl any appre hension that ' remembrances from Pacific ooast friends to Omsha friends were lost fen the burning of the Portland mall car." Chief Clerk Keller of the railway mail service said In reference to thla same matter: ."Tha destroyed car was from Portland. The destroyed mall was second clase mall In sacks.. There was no first class mail destroyed In the burning of this car." JIMS S I'll si no LIKE GOAT Dahla an I tea Will Eat Another Aal- seal on Christmas Day.

PITT8BURO, Dec. 24. It Is said" today that additional arrests In connection with the graft' scandal will probably not be made until' after Christmas. According to Director Land and Police Magistrate Brady, a large number, of , arrests, are contem plated, but "when they will . be made Is known only to the officials of the Voters' league and the private detectives employed by the league. However, It Is posstbls the arrests may be made today.

Thla statement was forthcoming In reply to a rumor that the funds of the city would be tied up on account of the arrest of the seven councllmen, some of whom are Im portant members of the finance committee. . None of the accused councllmen has an nounced whether he Intends to exercise his functions as a member of the council while the charges are pending.

BELL ADVISES LARGER ARMY Chief of Staff Calls Present Methods Inadequate Eren for Peace. DETACHED SEE VICE BAD POLICY Cavalry an Field Artillery Shoal Be Reorganised' Engineer Corns Inaafllclent Physical Tests Good Thins;. WASHINGTON, Dee. 2.-The most ur gent need of the army of the United States at present Is an adequate remedy for the evils resulting from detached service of officers, says Major General J. Franklin BelL chief of staff. In his annual report made public today. He also says that the time has arrived when the United States can no longer afford to maintain an "In adequate army for peace needs, nor an army with an antiquated organisation." According to General Bell, the number of officers on detached service Is 691. The result Is characterised' as very disastrous and among other things is given as the first cause for the large number of deser tions among enlisted men. General Bell dwells at length upon the bad effect of young and Inexperienced commanders upon whom responsibility falls in the absence of officers to perform duty, In large part di rected by congress and necessitated by the good of the military service. He says the only way this evil can be remedied is by legislation. General Bell says that It Is "a discourag ing fact that In case of a sudden outbreak of hostilities with a first-class nation there are not sufficient regular troops in the country, even when reinforced by the National Guard of the various states, to form an army after deducting the neces sary force to provide a amail garrison at our permsnent posts and the necessary In fantry supports for our seacoast fortifica tions." Intamry Arm Weak. The Infantry arm Is referred to as too weak numerically for the services required of it even In the time of peace. In proof of this General Bell says that since Jan uary 1, IBM, many regiments have spent more than halt their time 1n a tropical climate. Insufficient time therefore being allowed In the United States for the of ficers and men to recover from one tour of service abroad before another begins. The cavalry arm is spoken of as an "an tiquated organisation." General Bell says that no civilised nation claiming to have a modern army has Its cavalry arm organised as the American cavalry Is today. He says that the flold artillery should be Increased and declares that the engineer corps Is Insufficient both In the commissioned and enlisted personnel for the duty devolving upon It In time of peace. The scarcity of engineer . of fleers Is due chiefly. General Bell says, to Increase in river and harbor work, fortifications and the construction of the Panama canal. A compliment Is paid to the signal corps for "great developments In scientific war fare." General Bell says the corps should receive a liberal appropriation to enable It to continue Its experiments In aerial navi gation. Physical Test Approved. General Bell says that the efficiency of the cavalry and infantry In small arms shooting is probably greater at the present date than at any time in history. The president's physical tests for officers Is praised as having produced an Increased Interest In physical, culture and the general eercct. health among, officers-. He adds that ome test and aome physical examina tion has come to stay as a part of tha American military system. Increased pay for the army has had the effect. General Bell reporta, of reducing the number of vacancies in the enlisted force and of ob taining a better list of noncommissioned officers. The old days of forming an army, with more or less efficiency, out of raw re cruits Is passed, he says. The Idea that all that la required to make a soldier out of a man Is to put htm In uniform and place I rifle in his hands Is denounced as danger ous to the nation and one that cannot be too strongly opposed. LABOR WILL FIGHT (Continued from First Page.) have made real sacrifices for human up lift is the declaration of John B. Lennon, treasurer of the American Federation of Labor. Sympathy from Farmers, "Two hundred union farmers of Texas sympathise with the three labor leaders.' declares D. J. Nelll, president of the Farm ers' Co-Operatlve union of Texas, in I message from Fort Worth. After wishing Gompers, Mltchetf and Morrison "A Merry Christmas" and "Happy New Year," Edwin R. Wright, president of the Illinois State Federation of Labor, declares them to be the "latest victims of judicial oppression. " "What can Fort Worth do to aid you?' asked C F. Woodman, an organiser of the American Federation of Labor at Fort Worth, on behalf of the trades assembly of that city. Declaring that Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison received "a most glorious Christ mas present," Maurice Mlkel of New York City declares that those who know Mr. Oompers know that he Is the champion of labor. "Victory of greed Is only temporary. Jus tlce will prevail," Is the way John F. Mc Namee, editor of the Locomotive Firemen and Engtnemen's Magazine, telegraphed. J. A. Franklin, president; William G, Glltherpe, international secretary-treasurer, and A. Hinxman of the International Broth erhood of Boilermakers at Kansas City sent a message declaring that Judge Wright's decision Is "unjust." "The evidence proves that you obeyed Judge Gould's order," says the message, "that human judges retain and reflect the environment In which they live. This judg ment throttles free speech and free press, and tramples on the principles of the American freeman." "In be'ialf of the entire membership of the Switchmen's union," F. T. Hawley, president, "extends sympathy and sup port." LABOR LEADERS TALK OF CASE Some of Prominent Officials Censors the Conrt. . PEORIA, 111., Deo. M. Grand Master elect W. S. Carter of the Locomotive Fire men and Englnemen, when asked what he thought of the decision of Justice Wright of the district court of Washington In ret rence to labor, said: "The animus of the court Is probably re flected in the intemperance of Its Ian- gjage." Robert McKee, secretary-treasurer of the Unloi. of Stationary Engineers, speak sharply and to the point. -I think the decision is a travesty on jus tice," he said. "While At tha present Urns there is much controversy and unrest, still I think that the decision of this court will da much to awaken and arouse tha best thought of the American people to the and that the pernicious system in soms of our AMrSEMEXTS. FINE taeniEQS 3000 FINE FOWLS i All Next Week At the AUDITOniUf,. courts with which we have to contend will be obliterated." MONTREAL, Dec. 24. Alphonse Vervllle, M. P., oresldent of the Dbmlnlon Trades and Labor congress, says Canadian labor Is thoroughly disappointed at the outcoma of the Bucks conspiracy case in Washing ton. He said: "American capital has- decreed that Gom pers and hla associates shall suffer the Ignominy of Imprisonment. .The conviction of Gompers will create more friends for organised labor than anything else could possibly have done. Americans In the bulk will not stand for persecution." In order to forestall prosecutions for boy cotting In Canada Terville says he will work in the next parliament for the ap pointment of a special tribunal" to pass upon all disputes affecting labor's rights, which will take them out of the ordinary Judicial channel. JUDGE PARKER TALKS OF DECREE Says Unconstitutional Orders of All Courts Are Void. NEW YORK. Dec. 24. Commenting on the sentence Imposed by Justice Wright gainst the officers of the American Fed eration of Labor In the contempt proceed ings growing out of the Buck Stove and Ran go company, - former .Judge Alton B. Parker of counsel for the Federation offi cers today declared that the decision would be subjected to review by a higher tribunal and that he believed "that speaking and writing which Justice Wright holds con stitutes contempt of court, cannot be pre vented either by statute or judicial decree.'' "The Constitution of every state," said Mr. Parker, "provides In effect that every cltlsen may freely speak, write and pub lish his sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for tho abuse of that right, and that no law should be passed to restrain or abridge the liberty of speech or of the press." Analysing the scope of the court's in junction against the publishing of the nama of the Buck Btove and Rango company In the "we don't patronize" or "unfair" lists of the -American Federatlonlst, Mr. Parker says that "if the order can be so construed as torerftit Tripe eMfl e3lt5rlul comment upon the scope of eorne or to prevent free discussion of it, ami an expression of opinion that It" doe's not seek to prevent such discussion In such event. It offends against the constitution, then so much of it as attempts to do so Is void. It has been urged that even lf the court'in violation of the constitution does make an order prohibiting a man from making a speech on a certain subject or prohibiting a newspaper from publishing an editorial on the same subjert the party enjoined must, nevertheless, obey the de cree; lf he do not the court msy punish him, although It has no power to make the order. But certainly that which the constitution prohibits, the court may not da, any more than the legislature. The unconstitutional statute need not be obeyed; and so the courts have hold time and again. It would seem to follow that a decree pf a court offending against the constitution need not be obeyed, because It is wholly and completely void. It seems to me that the judicial depeartment of the government will not be guilty of the. absurdity of holding that an uncon stitutional enactment by the law-making departments of the government may be defied by the humblest citizen with Im punity because absolutely void, but that, on the other hand, a decree of the judicial department equally offending against the constitution has such force and vitality as to support Imprisonment of him who. Standing on his constitutional rights, dares to violate It." TOWN FIGHTS OFF ROBBERS Three Men Make Vain Effort to Crack Safe In State Rank of Milan, Kan. WICHITA, Kan., Dec. U.
