"We have discovered that less than $300
In money was secured by the robber who
held up the Union Pacific Overland Lim
ited iralii,"-' said W. T. Canada, chief of
the I'nlon Pacific's secret service. "There
were papers In ' mining stocks and other
form. of securities, but not over that
amount of catih.".
Four sticks of dynamite were found In
the loft of the Brown Park school In South
Omaha Monday morning by Janitor Benlz,
which Is an Evidence that the train robbers
were prepared for all .emergencies. The
sticks of dynamite were hidden In a se
cluded part of the loft and were discovered
by the merest accident. These have been
turned over to the federal authorities.
The pbstofflce Inspectors are busy assort
ing over the rifled mail and getting It in
such shapes as possible, for Identification.
This work vs In charge of Inspector Ran
dall. Thus far nothing has developed that
will Indicate that the robbers secured any
great amount of money.
-Xt. W. Woods, the leader of the holdup
suspects, ha again been Identified, this
time by a Fremont lad, - who saya that
Woods asked him for some matches at Fre
mont the day preceding the night of the
holdup. He was not sure whether he had
ever seen Torgensen and Gordon, the other
two prisoners
Chief Canada of tho Union Pacific was
with the lad when he Identified Woods,
having brojsht him to Omaha from Fre
mont Just for-the purpose.
It is supposed that Woods wanted the
matches for lighting candles used by the
bandits after Llity had secured their booty
and were hiding it.
Warner la Positive.
United States Marshal Warner says:
"Although I am positive we have a sure
case against Woods, Torgensen and Gordon
and i can eonvlet them on the evidence,
mostly circumstantial, now In our posses
sion, we look for still inore developments
that will greatly assist the prosecution.
Things are turning up all the time that
are Important"
'All the mall clerks who were on the train
held up by the bandits have now identified
one or another of the three suspects held
by the .government authorities.
Sunday morning June Corey of Council
Bluffs, one of the mall clerks went to the
county jail with Marshal Warner and iden
tified them,
i ii. ii jiutfliive of Woods," he said, "and
fairly ,um wf Torgensen, but I cannot say
thai inuuli about Gordon."
Cltrka Hush, Miles and Ryan Identified
the prisoners Monday, between them man
. aging to . Identify . each one, although all
three were not sure of each suspeot. This
leaves Woods, Torgensen and Gordon fully
Identified, for at least several of the clerks
are sure of each man. Woods being the
one about whom the Identification la most
certain.
The three prisoner are kept in close con
finement. They have made no statement,
Other than a denial, slnoe being arrested.
That Torgensen may have been connected
In some way with government Investiga
tions befroe this time Is deemed probable
by a local member of the secret service.
The latter states that he believes the secret
service has had dating with Torgensen
In past years, supposedly In counterfeiting
cases. ....
The officers say that prior to the hearing
of the suspects before United States Com
missioner Anderson today they hope to
uncover more evidence and arrest the

pare a body of professional soldiers, well
trained, to officer an army, and numerous
enough at the opening of the civil war to
give able commanders to both sides of that
internecine strife.
"On the side of the north many of the
officers were drafted to command volun
teer troops from the states. While the reg
ular army, aggregating about W,000 at the
opening of the war, was Increased to about
26,000 during Its first year. More than half
this army was engaged In the battle of
Gettysburg. Time does not permit me to
mention the names of the heroes of the
regular army whose blood stained this his
toric field and whose sacrifice made the
union victory possible."
"With my intimate knowledge of the
army, their high standard of duty, their
efficiency as soldiers, their high character
as men, I have seised this opportunity to
come here to testify the pride whloh the
nation should have In Its regular army, and
to dedicate this monament to the predeces
sors of the present regular army, on a
field on which they won undying glory
and perpetual gratitude from the nation
which they served. They had not the local
association; they had not the friends and
neighbors of the volunteer foroas to see to
It that their deeds of- valor were properly
recorded and the value of their services
suitably noted in the official record by
legislative and congressional action, and
they now have to depend upon the truth
of history, and in the cold, calm retrospect
of the war as it was, to secure from con
gress this suitable memorial of the war In
the saving of the country which they
wrought here.
. Always Loyal to Dntyv
"All honor to the regular army of the
United States. Never In Its history has It
has a stain upon its escutcheon. With no
one to blow its trumpet, with no local
feeling or pride to bring forth Its merits,
quietly and as befit a force organized to
maintain civil Institutions and subj.ot al
ways to the civil control. It ha gone on
doing the duty which It was ltg to do, ao
ceptlng without a murmur the dangers of
war, whether upon trackless stretches of
our western frontier, exposed to arrows
and the bullets of the Indian, or in the
Jungles or rice paddies of the Philippines;
on the hills and In the valleys about San
tiago In Cuba, or In yie campaigns of the
civil war Itself, and It has never failed to
make a record of duty done that should
satisfy the most exacting lover of his
country.
"It now become my pleasant duty to
dedicate this monument to the memory of
the regular soldier of the republlo who
gave up their lives at Gettysburg, and who
contributed In a large degree to the vic
tory of those three fateful days In the
country's history."
Dickinson Presents shaft.
Standing on the battlefield where vir
tually was decided the sanguinary con
flict between the north and south, Secre
tary of War Jacob M. Dickinson, a south
ern man by birth, turned over to the
Gettysburg National Park association on
behalf of the people of the Untted States
the handsome monument.
"The overthrew of tho south, a always
occurs after a fierce war, when the de
feated are helpless, and 'the more con
servative of the victors for a while are
dominated by the fiercest and most ag
gressive leaders," said Mr. Dickinson, "was
Immediately followed by sufferings and
humiliations that for a long time admitted
of nothing but lamentation over a result
that could bring such woes. Keen and
bitter as they were, time and a manifesta
tion of a more generous sentiment, brought
a mitigation of sorrow and a clearer vision
of the tremendous evils to all the states
which would certainly and Immediately
have followed upon the establishing f the
southern confederacy. 1
"Its very cornerstone was of lamlnea, pre
ordained to dlslntregatlon. Commercial and
other conditions would as sure as fate have
brought about a dissolving confederacy.
What would have come from these, we
can only conjecture, but it is well within
the bounds of reason to assert that the
good would have been dwarfed In com
partson with the evil.
"There would liave been a hate and
rivalry between north and south as in
tense as that between France and Ger
many, with a border line far more ex
tended, people less amenable , to control!
and causes for friction more numerous
A cordon of forts would have stretched
from the Atlantic to the western border of
Texas. Army and naval establishments
would have devoured the substance of the
people, and militarism would have domlna
ted civil government. The civilization of
all the states would have developed on
different and more critical lines. It may
be that in the logic of events the war had
to come that It was the fierce, cruel and
inevitable crucible which was to fulfill
destiny that of making us, as It did,
stronger and harmonious people, united
with a solid front, to meet the great prob
lems that now confront our race.
"We are no wiser nor more patriotic
than were the men who were conspicuous
In that great drama. As we look backward
our vision Is not obscured by the tern
pestuous atmosphere which surrounds
them, and we stand upon a different pin'
nacle in the march of history. They passed
through the valley of the shadow of death
and we, by their trials, have attained to
a mount of wider vision than was per
mitted to them.
"God grant that in ' the great national
drama which act by act, 'a blend of mirth
and sadness', a mixture of comedy and
tragedy, Is always in progress, developing
day by day thost things which will shape
the destiny of our country, we may enact
our part with the grandeur, heroism and
patriotism which they Illustrated.
Patriotism of Bonth.
"At this day there are but few, if any,
dispassionate thinkers in the north who
question the patriotism of those of the
south who, on this stricken field, set an
example of American valor that will for
ever thrill the minds and hearts of man
kind In all countries and in all ages. And
at this day there are In the south but few,
If any, who would not turn swiftly with
sentiments of abhorrence from any sug
gestion that it would have been better for
the south If It had succeeded In estab
lishing an Independent government. And
this 1 true even of the survivor of those
who, on this very ground.
" 'Saw a gray gigantic ghost
Receding through the battle cloud,
And heard across the tempest loud
The death cry of a nation.' "
"With one mind and heart the people
of this great country," said Mr. Dickinson
In conclusion, "looking to the future with
no rivalry, but in generous patriotism,
and cherishing no hate, but only the glor
ious memories of this bloody field, can
with heary accord proclaim in the language
of a southern poet comemoratlve of this
very struggle.
" 'Fold up the banners. Smelt the guns;
Iove rules. Her gentler purpose runs
A mighty mother turns in tears
The pagee of her battle years
Lamenting all her fallen ones.' "

LINCOLN, May 31. The State Board of
Assessment met this morning with Gov
ernor Shallenberger, Land Commissioner
Cowles and State Auditor Barton present.
but nothing was done save to adjourn
until Wednesday morning. Mr. Brian and
Mr. Junkln got to the meeting just as it
adjourned. Mr. Junkln wanted a meeting
this afternoon, but as x the governor de
sired to take part In the Memorial day
exercises the date wa set for Wednesday
morning.
The secretary of state has a bunch of
motions to make, or at least one, but
until the board gets together he will not
give out the substance of it. Last year
Mr. Junkln moved to raise the Burlington
and Governor Sheldon then moved to raise
the Union Pacific, each making the second
to the other's motion by agreement, but
both motions were lost. So it is presumed
Mr. Junkln this year will again go after
the Burlington, but with what success
remains to be seen.
Had the board gone to a showdown on
the motion of the governor last Monday
to Increase the Northwestern the motion
would have carried and probably all of
the roads would hsve received a boost,
but the longer the board holds off from
voting, It is prediced, the less chance there
Is for the Northwestern to get Its boost.
It Is said that under the plan of assess
ment proposed by Mr. Polleys of the M.
& O. that the Northwestern would still
come in for a boost, even though the
Omaha road is a part of the Northwestern
system.
Under the law, however, it Is claimed
Dy some of the rallrosd men that the
Polleys' system could not be used In Ne
braska, Inasmuch as the statute sets out
what shall be considered by the board In
arriving at its conclusion.
Memorial Day nt Capital.
The graves of dead heroes were deco
rated with flowers today by veterans of
the civil war and the community observed
the occasion by the closing of public of-
nces and the closing of a number of bus!
ness houses.
In the morning the soldier of the Grand
Army of the Republlo posts and the women
of the relief corps marched to the ceme
tery and after placing their tokens on the
graves of comrades they went back to the
hall, where the women served a dinner
for tholr husbands and comrades.
At the auditorium in the afternoon w
E. Andrews, auditor of the United 8tates
treasury, delivered the address, and a
set program was carried out. This con.
slsted of the bugle call by O. C. Bell, t

Can Barton Carry Decreet
Auditor Barton will attend the com
mencement exercises of the Peru Normal
school. He received his higher education
at that Institution. The governor Is also
expected to put in an appearance there
and will deliver a speech to the students.
The auditor will deliver no speech, he
says.
When State Auditor Barton leaves Peru,
where he went to attend a meeting of the
Mullenberg State Normal board, he will In
all probability carry with him, tucked
away in hi pocket, a degree from the
Peru normal school.
Mr. Barton's name was suggested to
the new board at Kearney at Its recent
meeting, as a fit one to be honored by a
degree. Some one asked Superintendent
Crabtree what the auditor has ever done
which would entitle him to take his place
along with the others who had been thus
honored.
It was brought out that the auditor had
written a poem while attending the Peru
normal which, as a classic, has never yet
been surpassed in all history, and as he
has grown to manhood since then snd has
gone through a campaign without It being
known, it was the Idea of the board that
he certainly Is entitled to the degree.
Incidentally, the new board has under
consideration an honorary degree fur Judge
Letton, who is also a product of the
Peru normal.

Is being mado to determine if any of the
lands should be reserved as coal lands.
This force Is busily at work on the west

their findings will be is not at present

are coal Indications at many places on the
reserve, the only question being as to
whether the deposits are of enough value
to hold them for settlement with the rest
of the reservation at the time of opening.
On account of delay the appraisement
force did not get Into the field until a few
days ago, and their work will be slightly
delayed on that account, but every effort
Is being made to get everything cleared

coming fall, which would allow settlement
