SEW TRAINS OF BURLINGTON
Changei of Schedules Bring J. Fran
cii to Town.
COKSULTS WITH L. W. WAKELEY
Mill Another , Passenger Train for
Mghl Service Mar Be Added
to the Lincoln-Omaha
, . Line.
J. Francis, gaheral passenger agent of
the Burlington lines cust of the Missouri
river, was in Omaha Friday consulting
with X. W. Wakeley, general passenger
agent of the lines west of the river in ref
erence to the proposed time changes which
will be put in cfrect over the Burlington
system May 23. '
These changes will bo most Important
and will Involve the addition of numerous
new trains, most of which will directly
benefit Omaha. The second flyer from
Omaha to tbe Puget Sound country will
then bo put in service, running over the
Burlington to Billings and from Billings
oer the new Great Northern line through
Great Falls. The midnight train from
Omaha west by which residents in all parts
or the state on the Burlington will be abla
.o return to their homes on the same day
sfter shopping and visiting the theaters in
Omaha will also be of great benefit to this
city.
Another new train talked about but which
lias not been definitely decided upon is an
evening train from Omaha to Lincoln. For
some years there has been a clamor for
this train and the Burlington officials now
see their way clear to put .the train in
service, leaving Omaha for Unco In about
1 p. m.
All of these new trains, with the help of
the new Omaha division with its head
quarters In Omaha, will greatly benefit the
holt-sal and retail interest of Omaha,
as they will not onlr erm!t passengers to
return tha same night, but will also permit
Omaha merchants to send out packages lo
all parts of the state the samo night. Here
tofore both passengers and packages had
to have Ojnaha by 4:10 p. m. or remain over
until the next day
Land alee n Hailtae.
tncle Bam 1 tn the laud buslnc to a
greater extent than be has been for years,
and a great part of hie new land schemes
at. In territory directly tributary to
Omaha, and Omaha merchants and Jobbers
lll receive the direct benefit from all the
new settlers which are flocking into tt
.in Nebraska, and eastern Wyoming at an
unpi ec dented rate.
Tiie Northwestern and tlui llngton aie
tinea direct f.-oui eastern Wyoming to
Omaha and the Increase In settlement iu
tula Mctiou la ihenouicual, lht lucrcutc
being 4H0 per cent greater than the in
crease of ten years ago. This is shown
by the receipts at the publio land office
at Buffalo in the Big Horn basin country.
The receipts for the first eight months
of tha fiscal year 1906-9 were $114,000. as
against )99,00t for the entire year of 1907-h,
and the increase of the first eight mouths
of thb present year over the same period
a year ago shows an increase of 4- per
cent. During the fiscal year of 1SW-1900 the
receipts of the office were 1-6,000, making
the receipts of the present year show an
Increase of over 400 per cent.
This remarkable Increase is largely due
to the avidity with which farmers of east
ern states aro seizing upon the lands which
the government is offering to homeseekers,
land susceptible to dry farming methods
and which are under irrigation ditches.
Burlington trains to the. northwest aro
going in long strings, sixteen coaches to a
train, an entire village moving Into the
northwest every day over this one road
alone, and the growth In population is
rapid. ,
Kearney Is Arooaed.
The Commercial club and the residents
of Kearney are aroused over the announce
ment that the St. Joseph & Grand Island
would build from Hastings to Gibbon to
connect Willi the Union Pacific instead of
to Kearney, which is a cuuplc ot stations
west ot Gibbon. Although the building of
tlds line is not authorized, there is no
doubt It will ba built this year, and when
It is authorized the question will then havj
to be Mttleu as to whether the terminus
will lie Gibbon or Kearney. If the end of
the new extension Is fixed at Gibbon, there
seems to be little doubt but that the trains
will be run on to Kearney, which will then,
in fact, be the terminus ot the new line.

Stock Yards Line
Common Carrier,
Says Higher Court
United States District Attorney Goss re
ceived a telegram from St. Paul Friday aft
ernoon announcing that the United States
circuit court of appeals had sustained the
contention of the United States circuit
court for the district of Nebraska, that the
Union Stock Yards company of South
Omaha was a common carrier and was
amenable under tha Interstate commerce
laws as such.
The contention held by the stock yards
company was that as It did not operate
railway lines off Its tun premises In the
stock yards It could nat be classed as a
common carrier and appealed the case on
that ground.
The case originally grew out of the stock
yards company attaching Its yard engine to
a car that had been received in interstate
commerce, the car being defective in hav
ing no automatic or impact coupler as is
required under the Interstate commerce
laws. A second cause of action was in
receiving and handling In its yards a car
loaded with coal from Iowa that was also
In bad repair. Suit was thereupon brought
against the stock yards company under the
safety appliance act, and a Judgment was
obtained against the stock yards company,
Juudge T. C. Mungor, holding that it was
a common carrier amenable under the In
terstate (jommerce laws.
REDICK DELAYS WHEELS OF

Jndae Hefuaes to Art on Case Jast
Hevaaae Litigants Want It
Hastened.
Mrs. Sarah Slavin thought she could not
get a divorce loo quickly from Lewis Sla
vin, and her lawyer. City Attorney Bur
uam. was willing to help her expedite mat
ters. The two proceeded a trifle too fast,
however, to suit the judicial temper of
Douglas county as represented by Judge
Kedlck sod a crimp was put In the pro
ceedings at the critical moment Friday.
Mrs. Slavin, who accuses her husband of
cruelty, left him last Sunday. Monday
she tiled a suit for divorce and Friday ap
peared with her lawyer in Judge Redlck's
office. The case waa on Judge Kstelle s
docket, but Judge Redlck waa Informed
that Judge Km e lie was pretty well crowded.
Judge Ilrdick had nothing of moment be
fore him Friday and. not knowing the pre
cipitancy of the plaintiff, agrved to hear
the case.
Mrs. Slavin told her tale on the stand
and it seemed that a decree would Imme
diately enter. At this point, however,
Judgo Rcdick discovered how recently tuu
suit had been started the defendant only
filed his answer Thursday and refused to
give a ruling. Judge Hedick declared that
he would take the case under consideration
for a time and remarked that It was hurry
such as this which led people to criticise
"divorce mills."
City Attorney Burnam endeavored to ex
tenuate himself by pleading "Ignorance of
the rule of the court."

DABR TUBNS PROPERTY EASY
Old Carpenter Paper Company Home
Bought from Mrs. Howard Ten
Days Ago Aealn Chances
Hands.
Frank Burklcy of the Burklcy Printing
ci mptiny lias bought the old Carpenter
Paper Ctmpany building at Twelfth and
Howard streets of George B. Darr for
$100,000.
Mr. Darr bought the property from Mrs.
Jeanle Howard of New York City only a
few weeks ago for $100,000, but trading a
latge" tract of weftcrn land and giving a
mortgage on the building to secure title.
Mrs. Howard accepted $50,0io worth of
Dawson county and other western lands,
noma $5,000 in cash and a $45,100 mortgage.
It is understood Mr. Durr sets sufficient
cash out of the deal with Mr. Burklcy to
make it practically a cash dial.
The warehouse, which was occupied by
the Carpenter Paper comauy for many
years, is a well and substantially built
vvaiehouse, but not in,dt rn. Dealers say
It will require seme $!5,U'i0 to $-iUi0 to In
btall sprinkler ryslcm and make other
cl.angcr, but the property is on trackage,
has good shipping platforms aitjl la large
enough to accommodate two or three
wholesale houses of fulr slae.
Bought for Investment.
Mr. Burklcy said:- "I bought the prop
erty more us an Investment: than as a
heme for the printing house, though we
have not decided whether to move the
printing plant to the building or not. It Is
large enough to make a good home for a
large printing house and accommodate one
or two other lines of business."
The sale was made direct, Mr. Darr and
Latham Davis having a real estate and
investment office, which handles holdings
of both Mr. Darr and Mr. Davis.
More big deals are said tn be pending
in Omaha at the present time than at any
period in recent years, both in residence
and business property.
A. P. Tukey Bon closed a deal Friday
with Harry F. Wllklns. who secures the
vacant lots at Fortieth and Dewey for
$7.".'iO, and will erect a residence cutting
from $15,000 to $18,000.

All employes of the city engineering de
partment received their pay In full Friday,
April 2, despite the fact that the new city
charter, now in effect, says that all office
employes and inspectors must first be con
firmed and their salaries fixed by the city
council. Eighty-two men and women

Work for Breen
"I Will Not Vote for Dahlman,"
Says This Democratic
Leader.

one man is concerned he will not vote foi
James C. Da hi man, but will vote and work
for John P. Breen for muyor of this city."

members of the Jacksonlan club who will
not support Dahlman," said Mr. Smith,

him. But I will mention no names.

by republican votes, together with prac

not get the solid democratic vote this
year by any means, and what republican
votes he gets, If any, is for the republican
leaders to say. My advice to the repub.

party, let the democrats alone, and Mayor
'Jim' will be defeated without a doubt. "
"1 will vote for tho republican nominee
for mayor and I know of many other deni
ocrats who will do the Fame."
