The crusaders have returned from the
capital. They struggled back from Lincoln
on several afternoon trains, though the
bulk Of those opposed . to the daylight

while moat of the Antl-flafoon league people'
returned on the regular at S:10 p. m.'
Neither army came back with victory

more cheerful "off their arrival In Omaha
than did tttextther and larger army, though
thoae oppoaed to the bill mustered a brave
mile and' while many said they believed
their csuaVt-was hopvlos, others said they
hoped for the best, and a few expressed
themselvea as believing Governor Bhaller
aerger will veto the bill.
The governor gave an audience to both
'actions, despite hla announcement follow
ing the unexpected 'death of Former Gov
ernor Peynter -that he would not consider
the bill .Monday. - Those in favor of the
bill were Ijcard first.' - being given an
tudlence In the morning. The opponents
were7 heard In 'the afternoon. Each side
aas given haif hour.
Thirty men composed the ' committee of
business men chosen by the 900 crusaders
against the bill to lay their can before
Bovernor Snaflenberger, the governor ex
plaining thai "it would be utterly impossi
ble for him to give an audience to the
rntlre army of Interested Omaha cltisens

Dahlman were chosen as chairman of this
committee and twenty-three other men
from Omaha, and .five from South Omaha
were chosen to form the committee.

proval It will work great hardship on this,
the only metropolitan city between Chi

tention to the nonpartisan complexion of
the delegation, Mr. Dunn told the gov
ernor that the approval of the Mil would
not only wreck the executive personally,
but that It . would . harm the democratic
party to an untold extent, Inasmuch as It
waa passed by a democratic legislature,

and attentively, but declined to give the
delegation . any encouragement or other
wise. He merely told the business men
that he would take the matter Under his
careful consideration and thanked them
tor their Interest..
In the morning conference with the gov
ernor by the Anti-Saloon Hague people
three addresses were made, C. F. Har
rison, Rev. B, F. Fellman "and Elmer R
Thomas being chosen by that faction for
spokesmen. M. L Stone was chairman
of the committee, which, aside from the
speakers, wss composed of Dr. A. B. Som
ers, Dr. W. C. Dean, Harry A. Stone, O.
W. Hervey. Dr. D. C. John and John W.
Hansel.
The Antl-Baloon teague speakers re
minded the governor that he said before
the legislature convened that he would
approve any temperance legislation and
that they were relying on that promise
to "save the young men of the cities of
Omaha and South Omaha." They also
pointed out the reported fact that the
early closing In Lincoln has proven bene
ficial to all concerned and refused to en
tertain the belief that the daylight saloon
In Omaha would retard Its growth, Increase
Its taxes and harm the city In any way.
The governor replied to this delegation
In much the same way that he did to the
business men, though he gave the Antl
Baloon league people more encouragement
than the other delegation In that he told
them that the only objection to. the bill
had come from Omaha and Smith Omaha,
while he had received scores of telegrams
from other parts of the state urging him
to make it a law.
Hope Governor Has Wot Forgotten.
"I am positive that the governor will
sign the bill," said Harry A. Stone, sec
retary of the Anti-Saloon league, "and I
believe he had his mind made up before
we saw him this morning.' He made us no
direct promise tn our conference with him,
but the one statement that no objections
had been received except from these two
cities leads me to believe more strongly
than ever that ha will approve the
measure'
Col. P. C. Heafey. W. W. Cole, Mayor
Dahlman, Et Carr and others of the busi
ness men's delegation said they believed
the governor would veto the measure, but
Col. B. F. Marshall said he was extremely
doubtful, while F. L. Haller said he thought
the "day waa lost" and that the governor
would sign It baaing his belief largely on
the feeling In Lincoln.
"The general opinion In the state capital
is that Governor Shsllenberger will sign
the bill," said Mr. Haller, "and the people
there ought to know more about him than
we do here. I talked to him, but he would
not talk back, and I could get no more out
of him than you could) out of a clamM unless
you ate It' ' t - - ' '
. "I did Hot hear fhl. but anothes of our
party overheard Arthur Mullen of O'Neill,
whom I understand has dominated the gov
ernor and the legislature, tell a member of
the Anti-Saloon league not to worry for he
could bank on the governor signing the bill.
My heart sank when I heard that"
Mayor Dahlman said he did not see how
the governor could sign the bill If he had
"any remembrance at all of the party's
pledge of home rule to the people of the
towns and cities. If we want our saloons
closed at 8 o'clock," said the mayor, "we
can do It by city ordinance; a state law
Is not needed. If number count for any
thing, the governor cannot sign that bill
In the face of the delegation we sent to
call on him." i . ...

bill occupied the fifteen coaches on the

TRACK TEAM IN TRAINING
Squadi at Unirenity Are Getting
- Into Form.
BIO MEET AT DES MOINES
Nebraska Athletes Looking Forward
to Rveats of Mlaanarl Valley
Con fere wee Pate for
Ames Gasne.
,
LINCOtJ, Neb., April .-Speclal.)-
The official rpenlng of the training sea
son for the track candidates, which has
been delayed several times during the last
three weeks, took place this week. This
was s areed upon at a meeting of forty of
the candidates on Thursday afternoon, be
fore the departure of Captain McDonald
and his team for the Kansas City handicap
meet.
The Cornhuskers will be divided Into two
practice squads this spring, one working
out on the campus end the other going to
the state fair grounds esch day for train
Ing. All men taking part In the field events
will remain on the campus for work
These will Include the candidates In the
weights, jumps and pole vault. At the
fair grounds all of the other candidates
will have quarters where they will dress
and prepare for the track.
As planned now, the long distance run
ners will dress at the university gym
nasium and run out to the fair grounds,
train there and run back to the campus
again. The sprinters and hurdles will bo
to tin fair grounds on street cars and dress
at the training quarters out there.
Training with the other candidates will
be the freshmen. These first year men are
Ineligible for the varsity, but will be al
lowed to participate In two meets of their
own this spring. One of these will be held
at University Place with the Wesleyan uni
versity track team. The other one may be
arranged with some minor college team In
this state. Both meets will be held In May.
Mlsaoorl Valley Meet.
The annuaj Missouri valley conference
track meet, to be held In Des Moines on
June S, will be an Invitation affair. The
active and alumni committees In charge
of the annual games decided upon this
change at a Joint meeting In Des Moines
this week. Last spring the contesting
schools were limited to the seven members
of the conference. This spring the games
will be thrown open to nine other schools
whom the two committees Invited to enter
teams. The schools Invited are Grlnnell,
University of South Dakota, Morningslde,
Doane, Wesleyn, Rolley School of Mines.
Oklahoma university, Coe college and the
University of Arkansas.
Owing to the foot that the action of the
committees will make It possible for six
teen schools to send representatives to the
annual meet, the Des Moines gathering
agreed to hold a preliminary In six events
on the day before the regular meet In June.
These events will be the 220-yard dash.
440-yard dash, 12u-yard hurdles, . 220-yard
hurdles, pole vault and quarter-mile run.
This preliminary contest will take place at
the Drake Stadium In Des Moines on Frl
day, June 1
D. Clapp was Nebraska's representative
at Des Moines this week, he being one of
the three members of the committee ap
pointed to confer witlh the alumni repre
ssntatives. Clyde ' Williams of Ames and
Professor F. H. Eberhardt of Washington
university were Dr. Clapp's asHpclatea on
the active committee.
Six of the seven .Missouri valley con
ference schools were represented on the
alumni committee, the attendance being as
follows: Q. ' Brewer of Ames, chairman
Rev. H. Flfer, Nebraska; W. Jones, Drake;
W. Bremmer, Iowa; Prof. Morehouse, Mis
souri; Prof. Eberhardt, Washington.
Will Be Big Event.
These two committees have entire charge
Of the annual meet and will make ail
arrangements for holding it in Da Moines.
They are planning to make it the greatest
track contest ever held in Iowa and they
expect with favorable weather that a orowd
of 8,000 or 10,000 people will witness the
games. Prof. Jones of Drake, W. Bremmer
of Iowa, and Prof. Brewer of Ames, who
are members of the committee, have had
charge of the Iowa state school meets for
forty Vears and are, therefore, well qual
ified for looking after the interests of Uie
conference schools in the coming games.
The next athletic event which will be of
Interest in local university circles will be
the western Intercollegiate gymnastic con
test which will be held in the university
armory on Friday, April It. This will be
the biggest Intercollegiate contest ever held
In Lincoln and, consequently, K is being
awaited wttlt keen anticipation by the.
large body of students. Chicago, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, Washington and Nebraska will
be the universities represented in the
games.
. Nebraska stands a slim chance of winning
the contest, but one of Its gymnasts, D. C.
Mitchell, has an excellent ahow of winning
the Individual honors. Lst year he was
second in the meet held at Madison, and
the year before he took third place. Zeldel
hack,, Wisconsin's representative, who- won
the Individual medal In both the two meets
during the last, two years, will not be on
the Badger team t'hla spring, and for that
reason Mitchell ought to be able to win
first place' for individual work.
Nebraska Third Last Year.
Wisconsin won the annual meet last year,
barely beating Out Minnesota. Nobr.iska
was third and Chicago was fourth. The
Cornhuskers will be even weaker than last
spring and probably will have a hard time
defeating -Chicago. Washington university
did not have a team entered last year and
Its strength for this spring Is not known.
The Individual and team contests will be
determined on the winnings In the following
six events: Hortaontsl bara, aide horse,
flying lings, club swinging, tumbling and
parallel bars. Nebraska's team will prob
ably be composed of the following men:
D. C. Mitchell. H. O. Trump. J. O. Ham
mond, N. R Morehouse and Claude Milch-
ell. Toblska and Snyder, two men who
have done good work with the gymnastic
team this winter, will not be allowed to
con-pete In the Intercollegiate contest be
cause they are freshmen.
The efforts of Nebraska and Ames to
agree on a date for their annual foot ball
game next fall have come to naught, and it
now seems certain that the two schools
will not meet on the gridiron tlilt year.
The Nebraska management has dropped
negotiutlona with Ames, for thrre ap
parently la no acceptable date left open on
the Cornhusker schedule for a meeting be
tween the two teams. Here Is the way the
Nebraska schedule haa been arranged:
October , South Dakota; October 14, Min
nesota in Omaha or Minneapolis; October
tl, Iowa In Lincoln; October 30, open; No
van tier , Kansas in LJncola November
U, Denver tn Denver; November 20, open;
November 35. Haskell in Lincoln.
Single Date for Asae Gasso.
Tnis schedulo haves or.ly two open dates
on which It would be possible for Ames
and Nebraska to ireet. October JO is out of
the question, for the Nebraska manage
ment, undtr no consideration, . would play
Minnesota, Iowa and Ames In a row lust
before tn Kansas game. The contest with
the Jayhawkeia Is the n.oel Important on-
on the schedule next' fall and the Corn
huskers will take no risk of losing It.
November 2n, the other open date, has
once been rofusod hy -Ames. There Is no
other possible day on which Ames could be
played unless Iowa would consent to meet
Nebraska on October . and thua allow the
Apaies to hove October on the Corn
husker schedule. This the Hawkeyes have
already refused to do.
So far aa Nebraska Is concerned the ne
grtlatlons for a game with Ames sre endfd.
Theje Is only one possible date on which
the two schools rnuld play. Thst is No
vember . Nebraska asked for that day.
but the Aggies wolild not consent to
scheduling a hard game on thatfdate. which
Is otly five days before they piny Drake.
If anything more Is done In an effort to ar
range a Cornhusker-Aggle gsme, the first
move will have to be made by Anna Ne
braska has one date yet on which It could
play a hard game, and If Ames should ask
for November 30 for a game In Omaha
with the Cornhuskers that date probably
would be filled. .'But Ames once hss re
fused to play the Cornhuskers on Novem
ber 20 and will not be ssked by the Ne
braska management to do so again. It Is
up to Ames to make the next move.

SEERS DEATH OF STANDARD
Attorney Kellogg Begins Argument
to Dissolve Oil Trust.
BARES ROCKEFELLER COMBINE
Lawyer for the fiorernment DIs-
ensaes In Detail the Oraanlsa
tlon of the tireat
rosahlne.
ST. I.OriS. April .-At 10 o'clock this
morning Special Asslstsnt to ths United
States Attorney General Frank B. Kellogg
filed hla brief of 1.400 printed pages with
the clerk of the United States circuit court
of this city, and a few moments later com
menced his argumen. after two yeara of
evidence taking, In' the government's suit
to dissolve the gigantic Btandard OH cor
poration of New Jersey for alleged viola
tions of the Sherman act.
The' argument was heard by the full cln
oult court bench Judges Sanborn, Van D
vanteT. Hook and Adams. With Mr. Kel
logg for the government was Assistant At
torney General C. B. Morrison pf Chicago,
who will argue certain phnses of the
government's case. The defense had half
score of co'insel present, Including Its
principal attorney Messrs. Mllhurn of
New. York, Rosenthal of Chicago, Johnson
of Philadelphia and Watson of FlttebuTg.
The Importance of the case to lawyers and
laymen Alike reaulted In a crowded court
room when the arguments commenced.
With but little by way of preliminaries
or generalities, lr Kellogg pl'ingrd Into
his subject. He commenced with a rather
full review of the evidence taken by the
government, before discussing the law
applicable to his case. He told of the com
bination effected by John D. Rockefeller.
William Rockefeller and Henry M. Flagler
In 187S, conceived, he declared, to effect a
monopoly of the petroleum trade, both
domestic and export. It was at that
moment, according to the federal lawyers,
that the alleged illegal conspiracy to
monopolize the oil trade of Die country
was conceived. Later, said Mr. Kellogg,
Henry H. Rogers, John D. Archbold, Oliver
T. Payne and Charles M. Pratt were taken
into the conspiracy by the other defend
ant. Review Three Periods.
To tell more clearly the story of Standard
Oil, -the apeclal attorney divided the
alleged conaplracy Into three periods the
first from 1870 to 1882, when It was, he said,
a simple combination acting In harmony
with its stock Interests pooled In the hands
of three trusties. From 1882, continued Mr.
Kellogg, to 199, the defendants Interests
were In the form Df a trust controlled by
nine trustees. This trust, declared Illegal by
the Ohio courts, was, liquidated, and from
1R99 to the present time, said Mr. Kellogg,
concluding that portion of his narrative,
has taken the form of a holding corpora
tion, the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey, controlling subsidiary corporations
in alleged restraint pf trade and otherwise.
Mr. Kellogg then proceeded to retrace
his steps and went Into the history of .the
first period, from 1870 to 1882, with great
cars and descriptive detail.
Unfair Competition Charged.
In the brief the history of the company
from Its Inception to the present time is
reviewed and the declaration Is made that
the testimony shows that ths various de
fendants have from the first pursued a
system "of unfair- competition against their
competitors, whereby the Independent com
panies selling and marketing petroleum
have either been driven out of business or
their business so restricted that the Stand
ard OH Company haa practically controlled
the prices and monopolized the commerce
In the products of petroleum in the United
States. , ... ' ,
This system. It la contended, hss. taken
the form of price cutting in various local
ities, while keeping up high prices or rais
ing them still higher In other localities
where no competition exists; of paying re
bates to customers as a part of their sys
tem of price cutting; of obtaining secret
Information aa to competitive business.
largely through bribing railway employes, I
and using their secret Information to pro- j
Cure the countermanding of orders of In
dependent producers and to facilitate the
price outtlng policy; of the use of so-called
Independent companies, that Is, companies
held out by the Standard OH company as
independent which are engaged In price
cutting,', while the Standard Oil company
maintains the price through Its well known
companies and other abusive competitive
methods against the competitors.
One of the evidences of the monopoly of
the defendants, It Is charged,. Is Its enor
mous earnings. Theae earnings . are sum
marized aa follows:- The Standard Oil truat
and the Standard Oil company on an in
vestment of Sti9.024.l80, had earned up to
the end of lti. $t38.7k3,T83. "Adding the
estimated profits of 1907 and 1908. we have
substantially," the brief states, " ll.OOO.OuO.
000 earned by this company in 27 years
with an original investment of about 169,
000.000." ,
Further on the brief says:
"It has usually' been claimed for large
corporatlona In thla country that they have
Increased busines and . decreased the cost
to the consumer, but In the case of the
Standard OH. company it has during ten
of fifteen yeara actually Increased the price
to the retailer, and this a good deal more
than the pricea of other products throughout
the country, although the price of ita raw
material and coat if manufacture and sale
during these yeara has Increased very
little. If any."
