DREAM OF A POT OF COIN
Omaha Man Locates, in His Own Mind,
Lost Army Money.
TRYING TO INTEREST OFFICERS
Has remission of llallrond Company
to Dice on Its Property, but Is
Anxious as to Attitude
of Government.
Treasure trove by the dream route.
A former employe of the Burlington, a
Mr. J. White, but now elsewhere employed
In Omaha, has been seeking Information
from the War department during the last
week relative to the possible robbery of a
paymaster of the regular army somewhere
in western Nebraska about forty years
ago.
He tells a strange story to the effect
that he had a dream about fifteen year3
ago to the effect that, while he was em
ployed with the Burlington, he stopped at
a station to wait for a passing train and
picked up an old 3-cent silver coin that
was badly corroded. Scraping about the
ground he found also a similarly corroded
60-cent silver coin, lie paid no attention
to the dream at the moment, but two
years later he happened to stop at a sta
tion on the samo line and there overheard
four old, gray-bearded men talking about
the robbory of an army paymaster In that
vicinity some twenty-five or thirty years
oeioro Dy Indians, and that the robbers
h "d burl'l the money In that vicinity, the
sum omountlng to about $100,000.
lie then recalled the dream he had two
years before and located this samo station
with al llt3 surroundings es the one he
had seen in his dream. The old men told
him that many efforts had been made to
find the lost treasure, but that It had
never been recovered.
Going to Dig for loin.
"The coincidence with my dreamhasever
been with me, and I am convinced that I
have located the exact spot where this
money Is burled." said Mr. White, "and as
the weather opens up I am going out there
to dig it up."
The purpose of Mr. White's visit to army
headquarters is to get a lino on Ihe pay
me.stcr that was robbed and whether he
had any S-cent or SO-cent coins In his
bunch of money.
"I have already written to the War da-
partment for this information and have
got my congressman interested In the
matter. .But what I first want to know,"
continued Mr. White, "is whether the gov
ernment will lay any claim to the money
that I recover. It la in packages of green
backs and coins. The greenbacks are some
what mouldy from their long burial, but I
think they can all be identified and made
redeemable."
White said further that he had received
authority from the Burlington company to
make a blind survey about the station for
the buried treasure, but he Is yet in a
Uttlo doubt what claim the railroad com
pany may make to the find, it being buried
on their property..
White is trying to interest a couple of
officers of the Department of the Mis
souri staff In the enterprise, but with
what success remains to be seen.
White persistently refuses to discuss the
exact location of his dream treasure trove,
but is certain that as soon as all difficul
ties are removed he will be rated in tho
multl-thousundalre case.

GENERAL STRIKE A'EXT MOVE
Central Union in Philadelphia Hay
Call Out 75,000 Men.
MAYOR DECLARES IT A BLUFF
Hrad of CHy Oorfrnmrnt Think
C'hanrrs of fienernl Walkout Are
Rrmole Company Will
Sot Arbitrate.
PITILAPni-rHIA, Feb. Si. -Despite the
various acts of violence committed by rio
tous crowds throiiRhout the city yesterday
and last night, the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit company was prepared, this morn
ing to open its various lines with an in
creased number of cars. The members of
the Idle Sunday thrones hay bren onre
more transformed Into hard working citi
zens, or are still resting from yesterday'
exciting experiences, for very little llffi
culty was experienced In the operation of
any line in the early part of the day.
More Important than tho ability of the
traction company to operate Its cars Is the
probably' effect of the sympathetic strike
decided upon by leaders of every labor or
ganization at the meeting held yesterday.
This monster walkout of M.000 union work
ers is scheduled for next Saturday unless
the differences between the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit company and its union em
ployes have been amicably adjusted be
fore that time.
Organized labor having spoken and th?
company having stated that there Is noth
ing to arbitrate the matter Is now up to
the city administration. The decision for
a general strike Is conditional on the city
of Philadelphia making a bona fide effort
tc arbitrate the differences between the
company and Its men.
The city is a partner In the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit company, it having three
representatives on the board of directors.
These representatives are elected by tho
two branches of city councils and the pr s
ent members are Mayor Reyburn, George
H. Enrle, Jr., and William II. Carpenter.
Thinks Strike Talk a Bluff.
Mayor Reyburn's opinion that tho proba
bilities of a general strike are remot? was
unchanged by the action of the Centra!
Labor union. The mayor said that he
questioned whether the labor unions con
trolled 7D.O00 men, or even much more than
a third of that number. "All that I can
see In their action Is that they hope It
may bring about some settlement," he
said.
There was apparently no question but
that the delegates would-' vote to strike,
the split being on the question of whether
or not the strike would be started Imme
diately. The more conservative element
prevailed, however, and the walkout was
put off until Saturday.
Meanwhile there is hope that the street
railway strike will be arbitrated despite
the repeated declaration of the transit
company, controlling air the lines In the
city, that "there Is nothing to arbitrate
Nobody doubts that last night's action of
tho Centrsl Labor unlonmakes the situa
tion grave. There is a strong feeling,
especially among business people, that the
strike should be settled speedily, ea all
line of business suffer because of the
stagnation resulting from the Interference
with traffic. Consequently there is much
that the meeting ot the delegates lasted
from a little after 2 o'clock until 8:30.
The great Crowd of work people gathered
outcide the hall would occasionally hear
loud cheering, and a responsive cheer
would go up from the outsiders. Finally
when the meeting broke up and tho an
nouncement was made that the delegates
had resolved that unless the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit company comes to an agree
ment with Its striking cmployea by next
Friday, the greatest strike in the history
of Philadelphia will be inaugurated, there
was a great cheer and the crowd ilispersed.
Man and Bo? Killed.
A man and a boy are dead and four
other boys were seriously hurt as the re
sult of a trolley car Jumping a switch
downtown tonight and crashing into the
front of a cigar store. ,
The dead and injured were standing in
front of the store. There had been , a
disturbance down the street and someone
had turned the unused switch at this
point. The car crashed through the crowd
on the sidewalk, stopping only after it had
torn the front out of the store.
Realizing that much of the disturbance
was started by children, Archbishop Ryan
sent a letter, which was read In every
Roman Catholic church loday, warning
parents not to allow their children on the
streets during the present trouble.
Alleged Dynamiters Held.
Charged with being Implicated in a plot
to blow up trolley cars filled with passen
gers and to destroy other property of the
company, Charles R. Copeland, a striking
conductor, and William C. Field, a station
ary fireman, formerly of New York, were
held in $2,600 bail yesterday by Magistrate
Ileston In the central police station.
The men were arrested early today by
It. S. Wilcox, phlef detective of the com
pany, and Detective O'Conner of the Cen
tral office. Tho detectives stated at the
hearing that a plot had been hatched at
a recent meeting tf the trolley men to
blow up cars. Early today they said they
saw Copeland pick up something from a
track in West Philadelphia. When they
followed Copeland und placed him under
arrust, a bomb was found In his possesion.
Members of the Amalgamated Associ
ation of street and Electric railway em
ployes, whll-3 admitting that Copeland Is a
member of their union deny any knowledge
of the alleged plot and say the' detectives
have framed up the dynamiting plot in
order to discredit the union.

LAKE CITY, la., Feb. 28 (Spsclal.)
Wolves ore more plentiful in this vicinity
this year than they have been for several
years past. While they are not seen near
towns and houss, they are becoming a
common sight In the timbers alons the
streams.' Several hounds and somo valu
able stock have been killed in encounter
with these wild brutes, and several wolf
hunts have been organized to exterminate
them. Usually these hunts are not suc
cessful, for Ihe hunters cannot pursue
the animals through the fences, and ihe
dogs are no match for them alone, so that
tho wolves continue to commit their dep
redations on stock. Several cases huve
been reported of children being attacked
fey timber wolves while on the way home
from town dr rural schools. Floyd Fatten
end his brother Frank, sons of a wealthy
farmer living south of town, were mixed
up in a wolf fight a few days ago. They
pursued the wolf on horses for about
three miles, but the animal finally turned
off Into the woods through a fence, where
the men were unable to follow him and
thus he made his escape.

OLEO DEALER IS SENTENCED
William Broadwell of Chicago Given
Six Years in Prison.
MANY VIOLATIONS OF LAW
Judge I.andls In Annonnelna; Penalty
Saye Prisoner Swindled Gov
ernment Oat of 1. a rice
Soma.
CHICAGO. Feb. 28. Federal Inquiry Into
methods of dlsposings)f oleomargerine was
ordered by Judge K. M. Landls of the
Tnlted States district court after he had
sentenced one of four dealers, who had
been Indicted for violating the oleomarger
ine regulations, to six years In the federal
prison at Fort Leavenworth and' fined him
ir,ooo.
The man who was sentenced to the pen
itentiary was William Rroadwell. " The
cases of the other three, Edward Broad
well, Samuel Drlesbach and Banlel Rortz,
were continued until Thursday.
"It has been disclosed that probably not
less than $15,000 and possibly more than
J20.000 has been lost by the United States
government as a result of Broadwell's ac
tivities," said Judge Landls, in sentencing
the oleomargerine dealer. "Whenever ar
rested he has given bonds and then cone
out and violated the law again the next
day. It has been a wllfull defiance of the
law. His bond has been supplied by a
manufacturer of the commodity, which he
sold Illegally, a proceeding which I regard
as my duty to say is highly significant."
Congressman Moxley Earned.
Thomas Dudman, a purchasing agent for
an oleomargerine concern, told of his con
nectoln with the' case as bondsman for
the indicted man.
"When you went 6n the bonds of these
men did you expect to be indemnified If
there were any losses?" asked Judse Lan
dls. "Yes, sir," replied Dudman.
"Who was golnr to indemnify your
'Iy employer, iTilllnm jr. Moxley.
"Down town roetaurant men were not
going to indemnify you?"
"No, sir." j-.
Mr. Moxley is representative In enntrreaa I
from the Sixth district of Illinois.
I -arse Quantities Sold.
Federal Inspectors told the court that
the defendants sold daily lnrge quantities
of illegally manufactured oleomargarine
to restaurants In the loup district. The
ossstant dstrict attorney presented gov
ernment reports showing that Dreysbach
ana Broadwell bought a total of 143,181
pounds of white oleomargarine in the six
months from July, 1909, to January ,1910,
and In the some period purchased 3,000
pounds of colored oleomargarine. The gov
ernment contention Is that the defendants
colored the white oleomargarine before
disposing of if,- thus avoiding the tax of
10 cents a pound on the colored product.
One of the contentions of the government
is that if the makers of the white oleo
margerine knew the uses to which it would
be put after sale and supplied coloring
material to the purchaser they might be
deemed guilty of conspiracy in violation of
the law.

UNIONS TO JFIGHT , SALOONS
Llqnor Qneation to Front in Many
lllark Hills Town
Elections.
LEAD, S. D., Feb. 28.-(Speclal.)-Interest
In the comlnfr city and town elections in
the Black Hills is becoming widespread on
the liquor question. The Issue is made
acute by the labor situation In the Hills,
as the union element has recently taken a
stand against the saloons. The first test
will come next Tuesday when the civic
election is held In Terry, one of the storm
centers In the labor fight. There are sev
eral hundred miners out' of work In Terry.
and the whole town is strongly union In
sentiment. For some weeks past the union
newspapers have been urging union men,
not only to keep out of saloons, but have
been carrying on a general warfare on the
saloon traffic and It Is generally under
stood and not denied that the union men
In Terry and Lead, particularly the social
ists, will vote for a dry town.
Should they follow this out in Terry the
rosult can only be one way, but in Lead,
with Its twenty BXloons and . diverse cltl
senslilp, the situation Is more interesting.
The union locked out men and their sym
pathizers seems to be firmly for a dry
town, while thi antl-unlon crowd ure di
vided, the church Interests being against
the saloons, the liberals not favoring any
stronger restriction than local option and
tho saloon patrons forming another faction.
Then In Lend the unions intend gtilng
further.- They1 have announced the candi
dacy of Chris Chrlsteneen, a radical soc
ialist, for mayor, and declare that they
will elect him at tho election in April. It
Ih, declared that quite a number of uidon
men who cannot again secure work with
the Homestake, would leave town now, but
for the election and are planning to co.rry
their ticket and a dry town. No ticket has
yet been named by the anti-labor element,
but developments are expected within the
next week or two.

HIGH PRICES AND LENT

PT. LOUIS, Feb. 28. The high price he

with 1 the loss of trade through Lent,
causnid Alexander Blndebeutel, a butcher,
to kill himself today. His body was found
In the Icebox of his shop.
Blndebnutnl's stock of meat before the
recent rise was considered unusually com
plete. As soon as prices began to ad
vance, his customers curtailed their pur
chases and the butcher had to reduce many
of his lines of meats. Ills customers then
quit him to go to more opulent dealers.
When Lent began his trade fell to a point
where It vas ' unprofitable. Blndebeutel
ended his life on his eighth wedding an
niversary. To Our Friends and Patrons:
After a more or less aggressive and
exciting commercial experience cover
ing a period of almost forty years, sur
viving a multitude of panics, droughts
and grasshopper visitations, emerging
victorious, our struggles crowned with
financial success, culminating In the
happy possession of a prosperous busi
ness, we have determined to retire
from the field, transferring to worthy
successors our entire holdings of mer
chandise, together with our hearty
good will.
The personnel of the new organiza
tion which succeeds us will be com
posed of gentlemen of large exper
ience In the business world; men thor
oughly Identified with the destiny of
Omaha; men who by reason of their
financial standing give ample guaran
tee that they will take a forefront
position In the field of commercial en
terprise. The new organization will preserve
and perpetuate the record of its prede
cessors. It will very materially en
large upon the acquired business by
the formation and operation in con
Junction therewith, a modern, up-to-date
factory, for the production of
every description of high grade Paints.
We resign the mantle of seniority
and supremacy in the Glass and Paint
business to our successors, soliciting
for them that generous measure of
patronage which has been accorded us
In the past, and for which, in making
our exit, we acknowledge our most pro
found appreciation.
Sincerely yours,
KKNNAKI) CLASH & TAINT OO.
