The federation delegation loft Chifago dMilntlie day. leaving only McCreery and Secretary llowen here. As the railroad ha flatly refusod to deal with the representative of the federation these officers ran do no more than await the reiults of the efforts of the International representatives. After two conferences he'.d during the day In the office of V. F. Kramer, sec retary of the nia KKmitha' and Helpers' In ternational union. It waa made known that no definite action would tie .taken until Tuesday. The union men believe that President Markham will recelva them again and that they will be able to ad Jimt the controversy. Even should President Markham refuge another conference It l thought the union leaders will await the ultimate outcome of the effort of their presidents to reach an agreement with Julius Kruttschnltt, vice president of the Bouthern Paclfio rail road, tfh a similar controversy. IIIUPM.UX . ARK NOT BIBPIUSED Had Anticipated that Krnltschnltt Wonld IS'ot Confer with Kedemtlon. Railroad shopmen in Omaha Are not In the least eurprlned -at the decision of Julius Kruttacljnltt. director of maintenance and operation of the aiarrirpan lines, in re fusing to enter into a conference with the representatives of the new federated union of shop workers. All along they had felt confident that he would not treat with these representatives and his action has done nothing here to precipitate a strike. Omaha shopmen hava been taking their usual Saturday off and as a result no action has been taken, or even talked of as to what course will bo pursued. As has ben stated In these columns several times, the old men at the Union Paclfio shops are not in favor of a strike and a large number of them will do all they consist ently can to prevent the men going out. Should there ba a strike. In no event could it occur inside of thirty days, say the local labor leaders. With all of the crafts employed at the shops, the Union Pacific has an agreement relative to hours and character of employ menta. This agreement also provides that If a strike Is to be called, the company shall be given thirty days notice prior to the date when the men are to be called out. t'p to this time' no such notice has been given, and according to the men no meeting has been called to even consider the giving of Biich notice. As an organisation, the shopmen don't expect to hear anything from Ban Fran cisco or elsewhere that could possibly hava any bearing on their case before the middle of next week, at the earliest. Sunday they do not work and as Monday Is a holiday, none of them will report for work, and consequently the only Informa tion received will be that coming through the newspapers.

BELLE VTJE PLANNING FOOT BALL Llgbt, Speedy Team and Hard Sched ule Prospects. Bellevue's football prospects for 1911 are bright. Ot last year's team four men will be missing In the new lineup Barry, all Nebraska center and captain; Rice, the big guard, and Primrose, who will assist Coach McCoy. These are all line men, and their places will be hard to fill. The most likely candidate for the center position Is Mastln, who last year was the biggest end In Nebraska. Jones, a 1910 substitute with 180 pounds ot beef, coupled with remark able speed for so heavy a man, looks good tor the guard position vacated by Rice. H. Jones, another substitute, is expected to make a strong bid for end. The prob ability la that the line will be rather under the weight of 170 pounds of last year. The place of Jim Clabaugh at half will be con tented for by two of last year's substi tutes, Dowdon and Stookey. Joe Clabaugh at right half is considered a fixture In his position. Johnson, the little quarter who won games lust year by his accurate drop- kicking, will bid for his old position. Cap tain Paulsen, who has made the reputation of being one of the hardest defensive players In the state, la out for his old position at full back. Bonderson and Fow ler, guards, will be at their old stations In the center ot the line. Fowler, who did the punting for the purple and gold laot year, has been working with the pigskin 11 summer, and promises to duplicate his 1910 performance. Of the new mateilal Moose of Knoxvllle, la., McKlnuls of Ban croft, and Bowers of York, all high school stars, will try out for the varsity, and it is certain that there will be others who may upset calculations by showing class. Altcbuler, a second team man of last year who made a record for fierce and heady playing In spite of bis light weight, will work out at quarter, and Is likely to be a surprise. Ohman and Kamanskl, tha center and quarter of the 1910 second team, will be In uniform. W. Webb, a new man from Iowa, looks good. Purcell, also a first year man, shows promise. He weighs 170, is very speedy, and knows the game. The first practice will be on Sept. 11; and many new men will be on hand. The schedule is one of the heaviest that Belle vue has ever played, and while the team will average lighter than that of last year. It looks speedy. The Schedule. September 30. Amity at Bellevue.

One addition to the big Labor day parade tomorrow afternoon was provided yesterday when arrangements were made for several hundred colored men to form part of the long line. A big prize is of fered for the largest delegation from any organization, and there was a possibility yesterday of the colored men attempting to capture the prise. The German so cieties aver that they will have 1,000 Ger mans In line, and more It it Is necessary to win the honors. In scores of screened barnyards and rear Inclosures men were working yesterday upon the floats that are to make the pa rade memorable. Much secrecy Is main tained, and It Is quite probable there will be some surprises. One feature of the parade may have to be abandoned. It was suggested by George S. Wright, and he was immediately appointed to carry it out It was to be a representation of the man going home from a bathing beach aftar his clothes had been stolen and his only available protection was a. barrel. The brilliant originator refused to do the act himself and so far has fulled to find a substitute. DR. GOMEZ LOSES NOMINATION (Continued from first Page.) herenta was called to the stage. He in sisted that they would not cast their vote for either Gomes or Suares, but suggested, like Madcro, that a new man be proposed. He suggested Federlco Gonaales Garza, who was one ot Madero's advisers during the revolution and la now sub-secretary In the Department of the Interior. The dele gates hooted down" the suggestion and blackboards were prepared to record the final vote, which showed the selection of Suarez. Close Is Orderly. In contrast to some of the earlier scenes In the convention, its close was marked by an exceptional degree of orderliness. Foreseeing the result, many of the Gomez supporters left their seats before the final result was announced. The adherents of Suarez stood In their places and shouted vivas for the victorious candidate, while those supporters of Dr. Gomez who were still in the theater quietly left after one last cheer for their candidate. Francisco I. Madero, jr., presidential nominee of the progressives, tonight said that in the event of his election he would ask Dr. Gpmez to occupy a post In his cabinet. AMUSEMENTS.

Food fermented In my stomach and formed gas, which pressed out In the abdomen end up under my heart, and at the time made me suffer so badly I expected to die. I had Intense headaches and frequent attacks of dizzi ness and I grew short ot breath when I attempted to walk upstairs. I was also much constipated.
