LIGHT COMPANY TO
REDUGETHE RATES
Will Make Reduction No Matter
What the Outcome of Conference
with Officials.
LOWER THAN D AIRMAN BILL
GRAIN EXCHANGE TO
CLOSE FOR TODAY
On account of what tha members desig
nate aa an Illegal holiday, the room of
the Omaha Grain exchange will be
closed this afternoon. The occasion Is
tha annual outing of the Grain exchange
members.
The Omaha grain market waa strong,
wheat selling 23Hc above tha price
of Wednesday. The sale, however, were
made before reports came In from all
over the country, announcing the return
of perfect harvest weather. Price then
aagged off, following Chicago, which waa
down aome 3c on wheat and nearly aa
much on corn and oats.
Receipts continued light, there being
but two car of wheat offered. Corn re
celpta were twenty-two carloada and
Omaha price were up ie, the sales
being made at TOgTOo.
Oats were He up and the ten carloada
sold at 9&&04c per bushel.
Along the lines of the Infor
mation first prlntel by The Bee,
conference or no conference,
mediation or no mediation, the
Omaha j Electric Light and Power
company proposes to wait for none
of these, but will go ahead and offer
a reduced rate schedule to the pub
lic very shortly, and while officials
cannot be Induced to say much about
it. it is hinted that It will be effec
tive for the July bill. Thus while
the Commercial club special commit
tee appointed to mediate difference
between the city council and the elec
tric light company, is getting ready
to mediate them, the company is go
ing ahead independently with a
schedule of reduced rates.
I. B. Zlmman, contract agent of the
company, when asked concerning the
matter, said "I really dont know any
thing about It."
General Harries, president of the elec
tric light company, knows all about it,
but he la not talking much. When he
does talk, he talks on subjects foreign to
electrlo light rates.
Redaction Proposed.
Anyway, the new rate voluntarily pro
posed by the company, will cost the con
sumer for llehtlng purposes 8 centa per
ktlownt hour for the first twenty-five
kllowata, and 5V& centa for tho rext 125.
Then It will oet. 4 centa per . kllowat
for the uext 1.E00 kllowata, and corres
ponding redtu?Uona per kllowat will be
made for greater amount.
"It waa hard for ue to understand,"
said General Harries, "how the other
rate proposed some time ago cdUId have
aroused auch universal protest when we
were voluntarily cutting down our groaa
Income some $80,000 a year. To say the
leaat It was looking a gift horse in the
mouth."
The prexent proposed rate. It la said,
will reduce the qompatiy's Income some
$10,000 per year. The secondary rata
now proposed for per kllowat for cur
rent above twenty-five kllowata and not
above ISO kllowata la to be a half cent
per kllowat lower than the secondary
rate proposed In Mayor Dehlman'a ordi
nance In the spring. It waa found at
the time, tho Dahlman ordinance was up
for discission that In some Instances the
proposed change would really increase a
consumer's Mil rathe' than re&uce it. It
la aald that the proposed new rate sched
ule will cure thl situation.
Date for Annual
Market Week is
Now Agreed Upon
Acting upon the suggestions of the
Omaha merchants, the market week com
mittee of the Commercial club haa fixed
the date for the fourth annual market
weak, which haa become an annual fall
affair in Omaha.

mittee decided upon the week of Auguat
Si to September 4, when the display will
be made.
Heretofore market week haa brought
thousands of visitors to the city, assert
the merchants. Plans for market week
this year are to be more elaborate than
ever before.

Important to Health
During Hot Weather
Summer Condition Con
tribute in Varioae Way
to Constipation
At no time should people be more care
ful of the condition of their bowels than
during the hot weather. Constipation
should be guarded against especially, as
many serious, and often fatal, diseases
are traceable to neglect.
Some people find that certain fruits
have a laxative effect, but this cannot
always be depended upon: a mild laxa-llve-tonic
that will act gently, yet posi
tively, without griping or shock to the
ftyetom, is far preferable. A combination
of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold
In drug stores under the name of Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is highly recom
mended aa being easy and natural In Its
action, pleasant to the taste and certain
In its effect. A does of this excellent
remedy at bedtime will restore normal
activity In the morning, carrying off tho
heaviness and bloat. Baits, purgatives
and cathartics should be avoided aa they
upeet the entire system, and at beat af
ford but temporary relief.
Dr. Caldwell'a Syrup Pepsin Is not ex
pensive and can be obtained In any drug
store for fifty centa a bottle. For a free
