Some Get Out the Hack Way and
Others Jump Through Windows

Adjoining Houses.
A "blind plg'over Sambo's saloon, 1313
Vinton street, was raided about 10 o'clock
Friday evening- by a patrol load of of
ficers headed by Sergeant Rlsrwart and
(Pete Dillon. The establishment was
reached by climblnr a long- dark stair
way, and the officers, upon training the
second , floor, were engaged In a lively
scrimmage by the dozen or more occu
pants.
Several women escaped through a rear
door before tho officers could apprehend
them, while at least four male occupants
beat a hasty reCreat through convenient
windows opening on the roofs of adjoin
ing buildings. When the officers surprised
the party ono of tho men, who escaped,
urged a large white bulldog, which was
In the room, to attack the officers, but
a well directed swing of Dillon s black
Jack took all tho battle out of the canine
defender.
While the police were engaged In round

Leading the offenders down tho stair
case, one man thought to be Sambo him
self, darted suddenly through a side door
Into the saloon, and Immediately locked
the door behind him. The officers bat
tered the door from Us hinges, but a
thorough search of the place fatted to re
veal the quarry. About 11 o'clock the!
patrol again made a trip to the estab
lishment and Sambo, the proprietor, was
takon. In police court he received a tine
of 75 and costs and the Inmates taken,
six in number, were dismissed, with the
exceptlpn of two, one getting fifteen days
and the other CO and costs.

one of the holdups token Thursday night,
was brought before the shift at the re-
quest or Chief of Detectives Stove

the following Instructions: "George Floth,

No Chance of War
Between Japan and
U, S,, Asserts Maxey
LINCOLN, Neb., May J.-'There Is no
likelihood of war between the United
States and Japan. Japan does not want
war. Neither do we. It Is probable that
the federal government will go to any
extent to avoid complications with the
Japanese over the California situation."
This was the statement of Dr. Edwin
Mnxey, professor of International taw at
the University of Nebraska, and one of
the men retained by the Japanese govern
ment as counsel In the first Japanese
controversy In California. Dr. Maxey, at
the time of the school controversy In
California made a careful study of the
Japanese question, and has been follow
ing the present trouble closely,
"The present complications, outside of
trouble with Japan, however, present a
question fundamental In Its nature and
one whloh will go to the very rudiments
of tho system of American government,"
said Dr. Maxey. "It will mean Just what
power and pressure may be brought to
boar upon the Individual state .by the
federal government to prevent an action
which will embarrass tho states as a
whole.
"Tho question Is one which has never
before come up nnd could even assume
the magnltudo of the one which was
settled when tho southern states at
tempted to withdraw from the union.
The question will probably be settled In
the courts and perhaps the proposed antl
alien land law of California will be de
clared unconstitutional. But If the Call,
fornlans should refuse to obey the ulti
matum of the courts, then the question
will be as to how far the United States
can go to force California to a decision."
ur. Maxey believes the southern states
wilt give moral support to California.

County Board Will
Decide on the Bonds
If money for reconstruction work Is
raised by a bond Issue voted by Douglas
county, It will be loaned without Interest
to property owners who suffered loss In
the tornado and want to rebuild their
dwellings. All members of the Board of
County Commissioners are agreed upon
this.
"The bond issue would do little rood it
Interest were to be charged borrowers
who want to rebuild thtlr homes," sold
Commissioner Lynch. "If bonds are to be
voted the money will be loaned without
charge to deserving persona"
The board has received a communica
tion from the Commercial club and the
relief committee, asking that a special

TO FORM MUTUAL COMPANY
Omaha Manufacturers May Pound
Own Insurance Corporation.
DEPENDS ON WORKMEN'S LAWS
Final Passage of Compensation Dill
and Rmployers' Liability Law
Means that Organisation
Will Become Reality.
'When the new workmen's compensation
and employers' liability law goes Into ef
fect In Nebraska July IT, tho Omaha
Manufacturers' association will establish
a mutlal Insurance company to bo oper
ated within the state by Nebraska manu
facturers. Circulars ore now bolng sent out to
members of the local association and to
state manufacturers announcing the pro
posed new company together with the
Information that tho mutual Insurance
will compete with that offered under the
employers' llaBlllty and workmen's cotri
pensatlon law ot the old line companies,
rtnte to lie No Higher.
The first circular says "the rate of in
surance to be charged by the mutual
company will be under no circumstance
more than that charged by the old line
companies under the new law, with tho
additional benefit that all surplus over
and above tho cost of operation, with
the exception of a small reserve fund,
will be returned to you In yearly divi
dends." It Is probable that after the establish
ment of the mutual insurance company
by the Omaha association the Nebraska
State Manufacturers' association will
organize a stmtlar company or Join with
the Omaha members. The new law Is
expected to boost the Insurance business
In the state considerably and tho mutual
companies will be formed to keep the
rates down to a minimum.
Manufacturers are being asked by the
Omaha association the amount of their
present yearly payroll and the full
amount of premiums now paid with a
view of adjusting rates which will insure
the success of the mutual Insurance com
pany while keeping them as low or tower
than those charged by the old line com
panies. They are being asked. "If the
plan for mutual Insurance la satisfactory
to you; If the rules are satisfactory to
you; It the constitution nnd by-laws are
satisfactory to you, will you place your
liability Insurance with this mutual com
pany T"
As soon as a sufficient number of
answers are received to the circular, tho
announcement nsto trie success or failure
ot the plan will be made. It Is expected.
however, that the mutual Insurance will
meet with much favor, not only among

pany will be In operation when the bill,
