Col. H. C. Bcebee
Rounds Out Work
Ketirei from Express Service After
Fifty-Four Tears' Continuous
Work for Company.
After fifty-four years of contlnuoua
service In the American Express com
pany Colonel Henry C. Beebea has been
retired aa lta active agent and representa
tive In Council Bluffa and given a liberal
pension for the remainder of hia life
Thirty-eight years of this long period has
been passed In the faithful discharge of
the dutiea of agent of the company In
Council Bluffs. The other sixteen were
passed In the auditing department at Buf
falo, N. T. Colonel Beebea la nearlng the
close of his 73d year, and ha objected
strongly to the enforcement of the retiring
order, but the officials of the company
were kindly firm and ha waa compelled
to acquiesce In their decision to relieve
him of the heavy responsibility of the in
creasing duties of the office.
Five years ago, when the colonel com
pleted the period of service In the com
pany which places Its faithful employes
upon the retired and pensioned Hat,, a new
man was aent here to relieve him and he
was expected cheerfully to leave the ac
tive list, but ha waa not ready, to retire,
and the patrons of the office were not
ready to have him retire. A monster pe
tition, signed by every business man In
Council Bluffs and all of the company's
heaviest patrons, Insisting that he be re
tained, was forwarded to the head of
ficials, and they willingly recalled' the
order.
But recently the duties of the office,
owing to the Increase of business, Rave
multiplied and the company Insisted upon
taking from, him the growing burden.
Colonel Beebee's place has treen taken
by R. H. Grady, who has for the last
twenty-five years been connected with the
express business, representing In that time
the Pacific United States, American and
Wells-Fargo Express companies. Much of
his time his headquarters have been In
Council Bluffs an1 he is almost as widely
known aa Colonel Beebea.

Council Bluffa has a population of 29.802,
according to the official figures received
last night from the National Census bureau
at Washington. Tho Increase for the ten
years since 1900 Is 13.05 per cent. In 1900
the federal census showed the population
of the city to be 25.802. and the census of
1S90 gave the town 21.474 people. This waa
a increase In that decade of 20.3 per cent
The official figures coincide very closely
with the estimates made aeveral months
ago by conservative members of tho Coun
cil Bluffs Commercial club, which approxi
mated 80.000. There la no disposition to
criticize the accuracy 0f the count, al
though the convloUon Is strong that enough
people were overlooked to bring the total
up to the 30,000 mark or beyond It. The
census was taken at a time when there
waa an unusual exodus of people from the
city on summer vacations and .land-hunting
expeditions.
The last city directory, compiled In De
cember, contains 15,604 names, exclusive of
firms and corporations, and using the mul
tiple of 2Vi to represent married women
and children represented by the heads of
families, the total population of the town
was then 38,760. These figures are sus
tained by the fact that hundreds of new
houses 'have been built and occupied- al
most every year since the preceding fed
eral census was made, and wherever the
new houses caused the older ones to be
come vacant they were quickly filled by
new tenanta.
Another fact pointed out Is that at the
time the census was being taken there
were more vacant houses In the city than
there had been at any previous time In
ten years. All of these houses are now oc
cupied and the demand for rental propertl
ia greater than the supply. Bull, another
ract that sustains the higher estimate Is
the school census and the enrollment of
".. mm census taken last summer
shows the largest number of children of
school age in the history of the city, and
me enrollment In October Is greater than
a year ago.
Heirs to Estate la Germaay.
IDA GROVE, Ia,. Oct T. (Special.) Ar
cablegram from NurUngen, Wurtemberg,
Germany, brought word that the Kolb
family of this county haa been named as
heirs to a big estate. Mra. ' Marguerite
Hauasman, widow of the late Herr Gott
fried Haussman. prlvatler, who was a man
of great prominence and means, died at
NurUngen, Wurtemberg, and named seven
nieces and nephews as her heirs. They all
live, or until recently, lived In Ida county
and are Mrs. J. M. Morrison, 809 High
street, Des Motnes; Mrs. H. C. Fugl, 800
High street, Des Moines; John C. Kolb,
Hoist eln; William F. Kolb, Holstein; Mrs.
Ed Hoffman, Ida Grove; Charles L. Kolb,
Ida Grove, and Mrs. R. C. Clifton of Ida
Grove. Just what the aggregate amount
of the estate may be la not definitely
known here and the heirs will not venture
any eaUmatea. but It Is known that the
property Is large and that each one cf the
heirs will come Into a comfortable little
fortune. Mra. Morrison and Mrs. Fugl
came up from Des Moines to qualify as
heirs and the official legal documents were
forwarded today to Germany. All the
heirs are prominent and well to do.

WASHINGTON, Oct 7. The supreme
court of the United States will convene
next Monday at noon for one of the most
Important sessions In Its history. During
the coming eight months It will have to
pass upon oases profoundly Involving the
Industrial and business life of the naUon,
and this fact adda Importance to the pend
ing changes In the personnel of the great
court occasioned by the death of Chief
Justice Fuller and Associate JusUce Brewer
and . the reUrement of Associate Jus
Uce Moody. Governor Charles F. Hughes
of New York haa been confirmed In
the place of JusUce Brewer, and there
appears excellent reason to expect that he
will be named In place of the chief Jus
Uce, although Associate JusUce Harlan,
the senior surviving member of the court.
has been much spoken of for promotion to
the chief Justiceship. In any event In
cluding Justice Hughes, there will be three
new men on this bench during the coming
session. '
President Taft haa said that he will
make no recess appointments to the court,
This means that the chief JusUceshlp and
the place of JusUce Moody probably will
remain vacant unUl the regular session of
congress begins in December.
Bl( Cases Postponed.
It also means, undoubtedly, that the
three great corporation cases upon which
the expectancy of the business world Is
centered will not come up for re-argumenf
at least until after the Christmas recess of
the court Of these cases two, the Stand
ard Oil case and the so-called tobaoco
trust case, were set for re-argument on
November 14. The series of corporation
tax eases were merely restored to the cal
endar for re-argument In ordinary cir
cumstances this would throw them over
for a year or more. The general expecta
tion is that none of the three cases will be
taken up until all the vacancies In the
court have been filled and that then the
corporation tax cases will be advanced
and with the other two cases mentioned
will be set for dates relatively ' early in
1911.
Aside from these celebrated causes,
tremendous amount of work awaits the
court at the beginning' of its session. Up
wards of forty cases, many of large lm
port, have been assigned for argument
next Tuesday, or as soon thereafter as
possible. Ordinarily each Justice delivers
about thirty opinions' during a year; hence
if one member were to undertake to cover
all of next Tuesday's docket he would not
be through with It until far Into 1912.
President Out of City.
Unbroken custom reserves the first day
Monday, theoretically at least to paying
the respects of the court to the president
of the United States. Before the time of
Cleveland, It Is said, the court had prac
Ucally never failed to adjourn Immediately
upon convening on the second Monday in
October,1 to go to the White House. Once
or twice Cleveland was away from the
city and Roosevelt even mora frequently,
Nevertheless, tne call of the docket of
cases to be argued has never been taken
up .on thaopening day. Ivtn It the pres
ldent Is not in town, the court adjourns
after receiving motions, until the following
day. Tola year President Taft will be at
Beverly; the fact will bs announced by
Justice Harlan, presiding, and the court
will adjourn. Largely on account of there
not being a full bench last term, many
Important cases were set for argument,
out of their turn, for Tuesday. The con
Unued vacancies may cause further post
ponement of several of them. The death
of Solicitor General Bowers may also re
sult In the postponement of a number o
government cases.
Virginia Case Is First.
The first big case set for argument is
the dispute between the state Of West
Virginia and the commonwealth of Vlr
glnla aa to the amount of money the for
mer owes the latter by reason of the form
atlon of separats governments. Charles E.
Llttletleld, special master of the cour
last spring reported that the amount
varied from about 13,000,000 to 19,000,000,
ccording to the basis that might be ac
cepted for a settlement Some of the most
prominent lawyers In the country will ap
pear before the court to argue on excep
tions to the report, which will be prepare.
tory to final Judgment In the case.
Immediately following the Virginia case,
the court will hear the famous peonage
cases flora Florida. Only the favor
able action of the supreme court it Is
said, can now save several men from
going to the federal -penitentiary for al
leged vlolaUona of the law against com
pulsory service. W. 8. Harlan, general
manager of the Jackson Lumber company,
with big mills near Lock port, Ala.,
has been sentenced to serve eighteen
months at hard labor In the federal pen-
ItenUary at Atlanta. Ga., and to pay a
fine of $5,000; Robert Gallagher, logging
superintendent, to fifteen months and a
fine of 11,000; C. C. Hilton and 8 E.
Hugglna, employes, to thirteen months and
a fine of $1,000, all having conspired to
commit the offence known aa peonage.
The accused are seeking to be released on
writs of habeas corpus, the claim being
that the sentence to hard labor was Il
legal, that the trial court had no Juris
diction and that the grand Jury was not
consUtuted according to law.
Employers' Liability Law.
t Scarcely of less interest In the labor
world will be the cases involving the con
sUtuUonallty of the Employer's Liability
law ef 1908. Thla law was passed by con
gress to take the place of the act nullified
by the supreme court because It applied to
Intra-state commerce, aa well as to Inter
state. The present law has been attacked
along the same lines.
Of even greater interest Is ths case In
volving the contempt proceedings against
the officials of the American Federation
of Labor; Samuel Gompera, president of
the federaUon is under sentence to serve
twelve months In Jail; John Mitchell, for
merly president of the United Mine Work
ers, nine menthe; and Frank Morrison,
secretary of the federation, six months;
all for alleged contempt of the supreme
court of the District of Columbia In that
they disregarded the Injunction to cease
Interfering with the bualness of the Bucks
Stove and Range company of St Louis,
which had brought the su't against them
to prevent them from boycotting It All
the points In the controversy are to be
laid before the court for final decision.
