Manaaer Eager, While at Mlaaesota,
Will Try to Arrange Sehedale
for Game Nest
Fall.
LINCOLN, Feb. lS.-(Bpeelal.)-Nearly
eighty men reported to Coach Carroll at
the gymnasium this afternoon for the first
base ball practice of the season. "Cage"
work was started at a few minutes after
noon and continued until nearly t o'clock.
Previous to the limbering up exercises
Coach Carroll Instructed the men In re
gard to their work for the spring.
The Cornhusker coach has ordered . all
men who have not taken part In basket
ball or Indoor track work to spend about
half an hour each day for three weeks in
running around the track In the gymnasium
In order that they may strengthen their
wind. '
For the practice today Coach Carroll
had the players Umber up their points by
throwing the ball around the "cage."' .This
kind of work will be continued for two
weeks, and then the entire squad, which
probably will have grown to number 160
men, will be allowed to take part In Indoor
games. Grounders' will be batted around,
and the candidates given' Instructions as
to how to handle the various kinds of
batted balls.' Considerable attention will
be devoted to teaching the men how to
bat
A smoker was given for the candidates
at the Sigma Alpha house last night, and
fully seventy-five men were present. Profs.
Caldwell and Barber were on hand as rep
resentatives of the faculty and told the men
that they would have the unanimous sup
port of all the professors In their attempt
to turn out a winning nine this season.
Manager Eager' announced before he left
Lincoln with the basket ball team yester
day for the annual Jaunt to Minneapolis,
that he would probably conclude arrange
ments with the Gopher athletic authorities
for a foot ball game next fall. There has
been some doubt In certain Cornhusker
quarters as to whether the Nebraska eleven
would be given a place on the Minnesota
schedule next fall. Some of the Minneapo
lis professors have opposed the game, fear
ing that It would be too hard a proposition
for Williams' bunch to tackle. Last fall
Nebraska proved a surprise to the north
ern team and almost held them to a tie.
Unlike some of the local professors, how
ever, Manager Eager does not think Min
nesota will turn the Cornhuskers down
this year, and he expects to sign a eon-
tract with Minnesota for a game on North
rup field next fall.

Directors for one year:

Harry Lawrie. W. H. Rhodes.
. These were elected officers and directors
of the Omaha Rod and Oun club at tne
annual meeting held Thursday, when dis
cussion waxed warm and considerable bus
iness was . transacted.
The first official business of the meeting
was to pass resolutions of regret and
condolence -over , the death of the former
president of the ' club J. A. Scott and to
listen to short testimonials as to his worth,
from J. A. Rlne. Q. W. Craig, M. Loftus
and John N. Westberg. Mr. Scott's
photograph occupied a prominent place,
draped In blaok. The directors were au
thorised to seoure a large picture of Mr.
Scott to hang in the club house.
Courtland beach may be bought by the
club and the entrre property used as
grounds and club house. A proposition was
presented to the club, which referred the
matter back to the board of directors with
power to negotiate with the Crelghton
Realty company for a proposition and to
report back to a special meeting of the
club. '
It was reported that the Courtland beach
property, which Includes all the land with
in the lncloaure to the middle of the lake
with the cafe, skating rink, bath houses,
bowling alley, artesian well, etc., could be
secured for 160,000. A plat was presented
of the property which showed that 125 lots
could ' ba - sold from the property for
bungalows and still leave all tha land da
aired by the club; together with the prop
arty already owned. The Crelghton estate
offers to sell on a contract for $6,000 down
with a payment of 15,000 a year for three
years, when a warranty' deed will be given
and a mortgage taken for the balance.
The report of the secretary showed a
membership of 740, which Is a gain of 173
from this time last year. It waa suggested
that the ; membership would greatly In
crease if the Courtland beach property was
secured. ' . .
An effort will be made to rent the large
dredge from the city when It Is not used
by the park board this summer to dredge
In front of the club houses and to throw up
a slight dock.
A vote of thanks was extended to Fish
Commissioner WiHlara1 J. O'Brien for the
large number of splendld,flsh he has placed
in the lake during the last few years and
especially during, tha last year when ha
stocked tha lake with some extra large
fish. The report of the vice president
showed that several tons of curp and
buffalo were taken from the lake last fall
and that more would be taken out as long
as they lasted.
The club has 8C00 In Its treasury.

WHO COT REST OF MONEY?
Bribe Committee Probing Distribu
tion $4,000 Given to Burnett.
CONGEE SAYS IT IS BLACKMAIL
Chief Witness Tries to Throw Odluna
of Crime on Mensbera Who De
manded Money to Kill
Bills.
ALBANY. N. T., Feb. 18,-The list of un
answered questions that awaited tha prob
ers of the legislative bribery scandal to
day waa as long as on any day aince the
senate began Its Investigation. Names on
tha three envelopes .holding tha bridge
companies' 84,000 bribe, had been told by
Senator Benn Conger, but yesterday's evi
dence had opened several new leads which
the Investigators may follow, at once or
reserve for - later action," under different
organization. .
Conger brought into tha evidence yester
day tha names of several men now In
offloe In such a -way that,-although not
charged with .wrong doing. It. Is probable
they will have a ii earing. S Percy Hooker,
state highway, commissioner, was named
as the man who" helped Conger draft the
proposed amendment to the highway law
that was supposed to be desired by the
bridge companies. Assemblyman 3. F.
Yale of Putnam, county waa spoken of as'
the author, of the highway law which
struck at the bridge companies after they
had refused, .according to Conger, to con
tinue the payment of tribute to the polit
ical leaders. Senator Heac'ock of Herkimer
county was the man who introduced the
bill drafted by Conger and Hooker, which
Allds is supposed to have persuaded the
assembly rules committee to kill at the
last session of the legislature.
The big. questions, however, are: Who
shareM with the late Jean L. Burnett the
$4,000 which Conger says Burnett received
from Hiram O. Moe on April 23, 1901? and
who made the demand for 810,000 "protec
tion" money which the bridge companies
refused In 1906 T v
Conger's testimony . that Speaker Nixon
and Jotham P. Allds received only 81.000
for their Influence at that time precludes
the supposition that Burnett was given the
larger sum all for himself. If Conger
knows how the money was distributed he
may be forced to tell before he leaves the
stand.
Mad Charges to Iaaararenta.
Lewis E. Carr asked Senator Conger
today why - he did not announce in the
assembly that an attempt had been made
to blackmail the bridge companies.
"I didn't think ' it would do any good,"
replied the senator.
Conger declared that he had mentioned
his charges against Allds to two senators
just before the "Insurgents',' hsld their
meeting. He said he did not give his In
formation to the republican caucus, that
chose Allds,' but disclosed It at the "in
surgent" conference.
Mr. Carr announced that hts examination
was over for tha present.
Speaker Nixon' Under Cload.
S. Fred Nixon's was the third name that
Senator Benn Conger says Hiram O. Mos
wroto on one of the envlopes in which they
carried 86,000 to the state capital nine years
ago to buy protection for the bridge com
pany. The name of the former speaker of
the assembly announced yesterday by Con
ger on the stand completes the trio. Speaker
Nixon's envelope, according to Conger, like
Senator Jonathan P. Allds. held 11,000. The
remainder ot the fund of 84.000 was In the
envelope given tc Nixon's lieutenant, As-
1 setiblyman Jean Larue Burnett.
According to Conger, from 1901, to 1905,
a systematic campaign was conducted at
Albany against tho treasury of the bridge
companies. For three years the companies
paid tribute. In 1903 notice came from
Albany that It would be to their Interests
to forward to the capital 810.000. Then the
men Who controlled tha bridge companies
met 4 In Syracuse and agreed not to pay.
As Conger expressed,' "we decided we
would not bo blackmailed any longer."
During the four preceding years meas
ures hostile to the bridge Interests had
been Introduced regularly, but they always
failed to pass. But In 1905 the legislature
passed a highway act. which placed on the
statute books, a provision against which
the bridge combination had long contended.
As a result of this law 60 per cent of the
bridge companies were forced out of busi
ness In New York stats.
Aide' accuser was on the stand all day
and this was his story. He told It under
cross-examination and - Allls' attorneys
seemed quite ready to let him tell It. Their
purpose, apparently to brand Conger as a
giver of bribes, as a representative of the
bridge Interest In the legislature and to
show that he waa actuated In bringing
against Allds ths charges tha senate Is
now Investigating by a desire for revenge
for Allds' hostility to tha business Interests
where Conger had Investrd money. Conger
followed their lead with a readiness that
can be explained by a desire to oonvlnce
his colleagues 'that he would not have
handled bribe money unless he and his
business associates had been "held up"
by legislators, and that the bridge Inter
ests In the oast had to choose between
blackmail and ruin.

Opposition to
. Cock's Auto Bill
Driven Would Be Immune from
Arrest Except by Federal Officer
After Leaving Home State.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 18.-Representa-tlves
of automobile owners of the coun
try appeared before the house Interstate
commerce committee today to advocate
some sort of federal law that would place
them upon a uniform basis and relieve
them from the "freakish" operations of
conflicting laws of the various atates.
The federal license bill Introduced by
Representative Cocks of New York was
being considered.
. L. R. Speare of Boston, president of the
American Automobile association, op
posed the provision which would regu
late the licenses of automobiles according
to horse-power. He explained that a ma
chine of small power, but running rap
Idly, might do more damage than a ma
chine of greater power running at a
slower rate.
It waa stated that the Cocks bill would
produce 81,000,000 annually in revenue
for the federal government through the
license fee of $5 for each machine. There
are now 850,000 machines In pits country,
and with the output of 1910 added the
total would be about 600,000 cars. With
but one-third of this number taking out
federal licenses the government would
derive the large revenue above stated.
Edward S. Cornell, secretary of the Na
tional Highway society, arrived today to
Investigate proposed national legislation
for regulation of automobile traffic. Mr.
Cornell aaid tonight that he found senti
ment In Washington to be against federal
automobile legislation at this time. The
bills now before congress, he said, es
pecially the Cocks bill, have provisions
that would destroy the rights of the
states to cause the arrest of an operator
of a car before an accldenf occurred. A
motor car operator traveling from one
state to another would under this law,
Mr. Cornell argued, be practically Immune
from arrest except by an officer of the
United States court. Upon this ground
Representative Mann opposed the Cockn
bill today.

MONET SPENT ON OVERLAND
Julius Kruttscbnitt Tells of Improve-
ments Since the Merger.
EQUIPMENT IN EIGHT YEARS
Vice President of Union Pacific De
tails New Wot It Done on Lines,
to Increase Facility of
Service.
NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-The efforts made
to Improve the Union and Southern Pa
cific systems sln(:e . the merger of the
two roads were related by Vice President
Julius Kruttschnltt of the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific systems when he re
sumed the witness stand today, at the hear
ing In the government's suit to dissolve
the merger.
On the Union Pacific Mr. Kruttschnltt said
that In the eight years ending In 1908 there
had been provided 652 locomotives, 858 pas
senger cars, 12,494 freight cars, 707 work
cars, 2,428 miles of new steel rails, 88,256
feet of wooden bridges replaced and 5,419
feet of Iron and concrete bridges con
structed. '
On the Southern Paclfio in the same eight
years- there were 936 new locomotives,
888 passenger cars, 26,471 new freight oars,
2,489 work cars, 2,970 miles of new steel
rails, 136,411 feet of wooden bridges re
placed and 49.826 feet of iron or concrete
bridges constructed. Another Item showed
that during the period named 17,220,000 feet
of new cross ties were laid on the Union
Pacific and 24,373,000 on the Southern Pa
cific New Methods by Roada.
The witness described the new facilities
and methods adopted by the Union Pacific
and the Southern Pacific aince 1902 to meet
the demands of Increased freight traffic.
Ho thought that the freight service was as
good as that provided by any of tho other
transcontinental lines. "If it weren't we
wouldn't get the business," said Mr.
Kruttschntt. He said all the big lines were
working along the same plans to Improve
the service and the beat service was that
which had the most efficient train loading
and car loading.
Mr. Kruttschnltt explained since the old
schedule had been snuperseded the com
pany had increased lta train load from
time to time greatly and had taken every
possible means to expedite the movement,
of a traffic which had expanded remark
ably in volume.
I
Mr. Kruttschnltt said that notwithstand
ing criticisms of the mail service to San
Francisco the present schedule, though
longer in hours, brings the mall Into San
Francisco early In the day, admitting of
its delivery that" day, which waa not pos
sible under the original schedule.''
Some figures were given showing that the
taxes on the Union Pacific had Increased
from 2225 per mile in 1901 to $424 in 1909,
or 89 per cent and upon the Southern Pacific
from 2201 per mile In 1901 to $393 per mile In
1909 or 90 per cent.

There Is nothing that causes mora worry and disoomfort than a chronic,
festering ulcer. As it lingers, slowly eating into the tissues and surrounding
flesh, and by its tendency to grow worse in every way, it suggests the possi
bility of being cancerous in its nature. Efforts to heal the ulcer by means
of salvos, washes, lotions, etc., always result in failure, because such treat
ment can have no possible effect on the blood where the impurities and
morbid matters form, and are carried thorugh the circulation to the place,
to keep it op:n, Irritated and diseased. The impurities in the blood must
be removed before the healing process can begin. 8. S. S. goes to the
fountain-head of the trouble, and drives out the germ-producing poisons and
morbid impurities which keep the ulcer open. Then as this rich, purified
blood ls carried to tho diseased place the healing commences, the inflam
mation gradually leaves, the discharge ceases, new tissue and healthy flesh
are formed, and soon the sore ls permanently cured because the source has
been destroyed. 8. S. 8. does not make a surface cure, but by supplying
the blood with healthful, tissue-building properties It begins at the bottom
and causes the flesh, at the diseased spot to firmly and permanently knit
together, and the plice ls left sound and well. Book on Sores and Ulcers

tion. He has been married for two years.
Looking; for the Caaae.
General Superintendent Page is conduct
ing an Investigation Into the cause of the
accident. Until he has seen the men who

after the accident and was at that time
unable to detect any defect. The con
verter ls a comparatively new one and has
a capacity of forty tons.
When the molten mass escaped It caught
the men unawares and literally roasted
them alive. Their clothing was burned off
