Woodruff 'of Olehwood, Judge O. ) Wheeler, why is presiding at this term if district, oouit, having oicnressod the wish .hat nume Judge outside of the city hear :he case, Array of Lawyers. The state Is represented by Attorney general 11. W. Byers and his assistant, lohn Fletcher, formerly of Avoca. V. Lyngby, former Danish vice consul of this .-ity, Is also assisting Mr. Myers and oceu ties a seat at the tablo with the state's ittorneys. Malor Richmond la represented ay Kmmet Tinley. George S. Wright, Judgu J. H. Heed and V. W. Miller. The case was Htt fur S:C0 o'clock, but Jiidge Woodruff was an hour late In ar "vlng from Olenwood. By the time court speliud the court room was crowded. In side, the rajling were many members of :h bar, while in the audience could be teen a nupiber of the pastors of the city jliurche and men from ull ranks of life. At the' opening Attorney TInlcy, after Hr. ' Fletcher hud read the Information, or till of complaint, outlining the charges igalt.st Chief Richmond, offered a motion .o transfer. rho action from the equity to lie law docket and asked" that It be tried x fore a Jury. In presenting the motion ilr.Tinley contended that charges refer ring to matters alleged to have taken Jluce before the statute under which the i oeeedltifcs were brought went Into effect ere properly triable before a Jury, that .laving been tho procedure In removal pro seeding prior to the enactment of what Is mown as the Uofsuii law. Attorney Ururral Resists. Ii,. resisting the motion Attorney General lei. ipioted the statute, which-provides .hut mi action such as had been Instituted' gainst Chief Richmond "thatl be sum nary in Its nature arid triable as an equit ' ihltr action, and may be heard either in lacBtloc or letm time, and shall be heard jcfoie the court or Judge without the lnter .cntion of a Jury." Mr. llyera further con-e-idld that all the questions raised by Ik. motion had been determined by the ova supreme court In the case of Mayor Henderson of Marengo, against whom ous :er proceedings had been Instituted on the iharge of intoxication. j Jutlge Woodruff promptly overruled the notion, saying: "It la possible this ques tion may he one for decision by the su preme court. However. I do not feel that, a court would be warranted In setting aside a statute so broad In Its prov isions." With the overruling of the motion to transfer the case to the law docket the Mate at once Introduced Its first wltnes, Myia Stevenson, whose resort on Weft Uroadway was recently raided by the police aid against whom the district court grand Jury at this term returned two Indict ments. The witness, who swore to one of the affidavits filed by the state In the action against Major Richmond, admitted that she considered the accused officer re sponsible for the Indictments returned against her. Monthly Fines Paid. Her olreot examination, which occupied the entire forenoon session, related solely to the monthly "fines" which she paid, both for herself and the women in her several establishments. She testified to conducting houses of lllfame at different times at 307 West llrdadvray. SI" West Broadway, 6:i South Main street. 61! West Broadway and JlilVj West Broadway. Receipts were offered In evidence showing she had paid a monthly fine of $12 for herself a. a madame" and i a month for each of the women in her houses. She testified that die had sold liquor and that she had kept money slot machines in her places. The witness testi fied to paying similar fines to chiefs of police previous to Major Richmond becom ing head of the police department. Redaction of the Itond. The defense then introduced as evidence the court records showing that on March 23, the day the witness signed the affidavit against Major Richmond, Attorney General Byers appeared before Judge Wheeler in district court and Judge Wheeler, "on the recommendation of the attorney general," reduced the bond under the Indictment charging the Stevenson woman with main taining a house of lllfame from $KW to and that under tho indictment charging the unlawful sale of liquor from -M to $i"0. Mrs. Jessie Miller, who until recently con ducted a resort at 613 West Broadway, testi fied to paying the regular schedule of "fines" continuously since 1SS8 and to sev eral chiefs of police prior to Major Rich mond assuming the office. Some amusement was afforded when At torney General flyers asked the witness. "How old ore you Mrs. Miller?" "That Is a leading question," replied the witness and the bailiff had to rap for order. "Well I won't press the question." said the attorney general and once more the baliff had to rap. In answer to a question from Mr. Byers what she expected In leturn for the pay ment of the monthly fines, the witness said she supposed she was to receive "protec tion" in the conduct of her business. ' Rev. John William Jones, rector of St. Paul's Kplsropal church, who on his first arrival In Council Bluffs took a decidedly prominent part In (he movement to reform the morals of the community, testified to calling upon Major Richmond and that the latter had explained to him the system of monthly fines Imposed upon the women of the town as part of the method the city had in regulating the social evil. Rev. Jamea M. Wllllamn, pastor of Broad way Methodist church, and one of the lead ing members of the Ministerial association told of several conferences ho had held with the chief relative to the social evil and other matters pertaining to the moral welfare of the community. Rev. Mr. Wil llama had no hesitation In saying that the moral atmosphere of the city Had been greatly improved under the; administration of Major Richmond and that at present and for some time past It was vastly better than It had been In the years past. Attorney D. E. btuart testified to the manner In which the saloons of the city had In the past been conducted in violation of the law, but that for a year or more they had been adhering Btrictly to the pro- vislona of the mulct law.

Shallenbergrr Is marshalling his forces to charge the lion In his den. The deadly weapon which he win uae almost exclusively will be "four- flusher." The governor will us the word "four- flusher" in quotations because that word waa used by the mayor In his description of his excellency when the t o'clock closing law was signed and before that when both were candidates for the democratic nom ination. The fact that Mayor Dahlman did not denounce the S o'clock closing law In his recently promulgated platform, In the opinion of the governor, has placed his honor In the "four-flushing" class. I shall certainly campaign Douglas county for votes before the primary," said Governor Shallenberger. "I shall do my best to get every vole that I posnlbly can. Insofar as the liquor question Is concerned Mayor Dahlman and I aland squarely on the same platform. He Is against county option and so am I, and we are both for the 8 o'clock closing law. Consequently, both of us standing on that platform, it seems to me there Is no reason why the people of Omaha should vote against me In the primary." The governor has not yet set a date for las campaign in Omaha.

PITTSBURG, April 5.-rresident Fran cis Feehan of district five, United Mine Workers of America, said tonight that the conference, today with operators of the Pittsburg district was satisfactory and al though no definite action was taken It ap peared likely that the operators would grunt the miners' demands for 5 cents a ton wage increase and adjust the powder situa tion. The operators askod for a few days to consider the miners' propositions and pend ing another conference the strike of 40, OX) miners continues, but peacefully and with out violence. President Thomas L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers of America was too late Mail Education Declared Trade Between States FIELD DAY FOR SOCIOLOGY Business of Correspondence School with Pupils Regarded as Interstate Commerce by Supreme Court. . WASHINGTON, April 6. The business of a correspondence school with pupils In various states is Interstate commerce. Such was the opinion of the supreme court of the United States announced today by Jus tice Harlan In the case of the International Text Book company of Sctanton, Pa., against A. T. Pigg of Topeka, Kan. In the same case 'the court declared un constitutional' section 12S3 of the laws of Kansas, requiring corporatlqns seeking to do business In the state to file a prescribed certificate with the state official and upon failure to do so close the doors of the state courts to them. The International Text Book company employed an agent to solicit students In Kansas to take correspondence courses In Its school In Pennsylvania. Plgg executed a contract in WOO in Topeka. Kan., to take such a course, but subsequently failed to today to attend the conference, but he 1 pay all the tuition required. hopes to participate In the later negotia tions. In speaking of the general situation he said tonight: "The mining situation gives no one cause for alarm. There Is every llkllhood that the Hocking district contract of Ohio, will be signed up tomorrow at Columbus. Every other section In that state will then fol low in rapid succession, with the possible exception of Eastern Ohio and Crokesvllle, where there may be some delay in arrang ing the details of the wage contract. "In my opinion, the situation In western Pennsylvania will be cleared up long before I he end of April. This will assist ma terially in getting central Pennsylvania straightened out. If they have not In the meantime reached an agreement. The Kanawha district of West Virginia and western Kentucky will soon be settled. This Is also true In the bituminous districts of Indiana, Michigan and Iowa. I have not been In any way alarmed regarding the situation from the very start of negotia tions. Our prediction that there would be ro geenral strike In the mining Industry will be more than vindicated." Colorado Operatora Refuse Demand. DENVER. April !. Operators of the northern Colorado coal fields today re fused to grant the demands of the United Mine Workers of America for an advunce of 6.5 per cent for day work and ah In crease of S cents a ton for machine mined and of 4 cents a ton for pick mined coal. The strike Inaugurated Saturday will con tinue indefinitely. The operators announce, however, that their mines will be reopened In a few days. The old men will be given a chance to come back and if they do not return non union men will be Imported to take their places. The operators signed an ironclad agree ment to introduce "open eh'ip" methods In their mines. When the suit was brought against PlKB the answer made was that the company was a foreign corporation for profit and that it was transacting business In Kansas without having compiled with the require ments of the state of Kansas of such cor porations. ' Justice Harlan, in the opinion of the court, held that "in our Judgment in its essential character there was commerce among the states within the meaning of the constitution." He held th section of the statute Inter fered with Interstate commerce. BURGLARS STEAL SAFE WEIGHING TWO TONS Bold Itobhera Haul Vault Into the Country, then Dion It Open and Get Loot.

Educators Heard a Child Labor Committee Meeting. -iuiy.- ' -V. Monday was "sociological" day In Omaha, so far as public meetings were concerned. Men and women Interested In altruistic phases of human endeavor had opportunity to attend a guod many sessions where prominent workers and speakers were to be met and heard, several being from out of town. That working women of the country and Immigrant women coining In are In greater need of moral and material aid than men, Is the view of Rev. Charles Stelzle, super intendent of the Presbyterian department of church and labor In his address at the Young Men's Christian association Tues day night. Dr. Stelzle's subject was "Work- Ingmen and Their Conditions." With slereoptlcon views to Illustrate his words, the speaker set forth the most dis tressing side of life among Immigrants, as It appears In the great cities of the country. "The problem of the future Is the city," declared Mr. Stelzle. From the scene of their oppression In Russia and through the various stages of their Journey to America, Mr. Stelzle, with his pictures and narra tive, traced the course of the Russian Im migrants. These, he said, formed the great est horde of any one nationality seeking the shores of the United States as a haven. Fate' of Immigrants. The speaker then showed that In America at the' present time the Immigrants are finding life scarcely better. If at all, than what they left behind. He spoke of unsani tary tenements, grinding poverty and the heart-breaking work In which mothers and children are forced to take a part as fig uring disastrously In the condition of im migrants in American cities. Mr. Stelzle then explained how the de partment with which he Is connected Is conducting a model Sunday school and social settlement In New York at a cost of $0,000 a year. Sunshine and good cheer for the heavily burdened women was the prin ciple of the organization, he said. Dr. D. E. Jenkins, president of the Omaha university. Introduced the speaker. Mr Stelzle departed for .New York shortly after the lecture. The Nebraska child labor committee, tc the number of twenty-five, sat down to dinner at the You in Men's Christian as sociation at S o'clock, with Rev. Charles Stelzle and Prof. Lucilo Eaves of the Uni versity of Nebraska as special guests ol honor. After the dinner short speeches wert made by several of those present, Mrs. Draper Smith acting as presiding officer. Dr. Leo Frankel urged renewed activity on behalf of the bill now pending In con gress to create a children's bureau In th Department of the Interior. Superin tendent Davidson of the Omaha schonli discussed the best method of handling the odd children who does not thrive well In school. He advocated the establishment ol a special school in which manual training shall have Increasing attention through several grades, resulting eventually In boys and girls' acquiring real trades, even If it be necessary to add a two years' rade training to the education along ths lines of the liberal arts. Prof. Kavea elaborated on Dr. David son's thought, pleading for a wl.se voca tional training, and the Instituting In the United States of the "continuing school." such as now exists in Germany and some other countries of Europe. These schools the children who have not been able to finish the regular courses of study are compelled to attend until they attain a certain proficiency. She urged the neel for a more extended study of vocational school needs and the putting into practi cal operation, through public sentiment, of the wisest conclusions that can be reached on the subject by trained Investigators. Miss Ida V. Jontti gave some Interesting facts touching the 'help given from the public purse and by private contributions to children who cannot afford to attend school as long as they should because of the demands of the home for their earn ings as workers. Her figures Indicated that the scheme has worked quite success fully in several of ths states where It has been put Into operation. The following officers were elected: President, Judge Howard Kennedy; first vice, Miss Luclle Eaves, Lincoln; second vice. Mrs. H. L. Ktefe, Walthlll; secretary treasurer, John J. Ryder. A vote of thanks was given to Dr. George E.
