A gang of about" "100 men was working yesterday on the Ralston interurban line, making the best of the mild weather. The steel gang Is now tinder way. which means that In about one month, or with the break ing of spring, the line will be ready for business, unless something unforeseen oc cur j. The company Is providing car service which will enter South Omsha over Q street. It ia reported that fully twenty men of Ralston are applying for liquor licenses. They have been circulating petitions for the signatures of freeholders tor several days. It is likely that the county commis sioners may not ' grant one-half of that number, but at that It will -make the num ber of saloons pretty' large compared to the other enterprises. Heretofore the county saloons in the vicinity of Omaha and South Omaha have run open on Sunday. This is possibly one' reason whi" the saloon tn Ralston ia aa attractive proposition. a Seaslaa af Caaarll.

The South CrmaJia police have not yet succeeded In lesrning the Identity of the driver whose wagon ran over Carl B. Smith last Saturday. It ia learned that the wagon was loaded high with wood and furniture and waa taking the belongings of J. Anglini to his new residence In Omaha. The driver wa driving a bay and a white horse. While moving rather fast on Twenty-sixth street, between K a d J street, the boy fell off the v. agon upor. which he had been riding. The wheel cruahed hira. but the alight Jar apparently waa not noticed by the driver on a rather rough road. He, according to the other boys, never turned his head. They were too frightened to call him back. No adults were on the street at the time. This explanation by the boys convinced the par ents, Mr. and Mra. C. W. Smith, 610 North Twenty-third street, that the death of the boy waa purely accidental and no fault of the teamster. They engaged an undertaker and Intimated that they did not wish an inquest In the case as they were satisfied of the blame. Orchestra at High School.

PERKINS' RPLYJO PRESIDENT lallforala Senator May He lewd Hla Coarse aa Tay Approarla tloas. WASHINGTON. Feb. .-In view of the attsck which President Roosevelt ha made upon Senator Perkins, the senior senator from California, for his attitude on the Japanese agitation In hi state, friends ot the Pacific coast senator believe that he will defend himself on the floor of the sen ate. So far Senator Perkins has not Inti mated what his course will be. He con sulted with several senators on the subject today. It is urged that, while there may be a difference of opinion between the senstor and his colleague ss to the rights ot s state to take certain action, regardless ot treaties entered Into by the federal govern ment, he will receive strong support on ac count of disapproval among the senators of an attack upon one of thetr number by the executive at this time. Senator Perkins claims that the criticism of his attitude on the naval program is unwarranted. "In 1K8." he explained. "I became a mem ber of the senste naval afairs committee. At that time we did not have a single battle ship in commission and very few first class cruisers. Todsy we have twenty-seven bat tleships in commission and five In course of construction, in adltlon to the fleet of first class cruisers, torpedo boats, and other modern vessels of war. "The appropriation for 1893 waa only fJ, 000,000 for the support and building ot the navy and. everything else. The naval bill now pending In the senste carries more than $136,000,000. "In 1KB we hsd but U.000 sailors and ma rines. Today we have about 4S.O00 sailors and marines. "I have voted for every Increase in the naval appropriation that has come before the committee with the exception of the lsst proposal to build four battleahip In one year, which I did not think expedient, believing It the part of wisdom and wise business poliiT te profit by our own exper ience and the mistakes In naval construc tion of other countries. "A a verification of whst I say, I would refer to the Congressional Record, which records every vote for and against sny pending measures." The fact that In the prospective reorgaul- I xatlon of the senate committee Senator i Perkins of California will succeed Senator I Hale of Maine as chairman of the commit j tee on naval affairs has had the effect ol adding to the Interest in the president'!

ADVERSE REPORT t I t LTOX BILL losasalttee Objects to Givlaa toeasals aloa Power to Saspead Ratea. WASHINGTON. Feb. 8. Senator Elkins, chairman ot the senate committee on in terstate commerce, presented a report to the senate today in support of the com mittee's adverse decision on the Fulton bill, which would authorise a suspension by the Inteiitste Commerce commission of a proposed change of rates by a railroad upon protest from a shipper. The report ssys: The conferring upon the commission the power to suspend a rate advanced either upon the filing of a protest by a shipper or in the dieiretion of the commlnsion, taken tn connection with the provision of the statute which gives to the commis sion the power to fix a rate and to desig nate the time, not longer than two years, that It should remain In force, would ulti mately turn over to that administrative body the function of Initiating the rates of the entire country. It would offer a premium to every shipper to enter a pro test to the advance of rates, whether they were reasonable or unreasonable even If discretion was vested in the commission. If a protest, prepared by skilled attor neys, presents a prima facie case of un reasonable advance of the rate and offers no opportunity for an Investigation before it muat be acted upon, an official body on which waa imposed the responsibility to act would be constrained to suspend the rats until a final determination of the complaint.
