Swift and Company's Hew
Oarage Is Beady for Accom
modation of Trucks.
NO NEW OFFICE BUILDING
Swift and Company just completed
the erection of a two-story garage at
the west end of the plant terrace at
Twenty-seventh and Q streets this
week. Workmen were laying the last
of the concrete flooring yesterday and
with the equipment for immediate
operation on hand the structure is ex
peeled to be in full swing within the
coming week.
Nine new trucks, to be used for
local transportation, were placed in
operation March 1. These represent
but a portion of the new dock equip
ment that the plant has installed in
the year past. Together with the new
garage these two items have cost the
company practically $30,000 and are
furnished according to the modern
idea.
Officials say the original plan to
erect a new omce building has been
revised and the construction of this
building will not be m line for sev
eral years.
Community Work Increases.
Community center work, under the
direction of Jake Isaacson, director of
the department, contemplates exoan
sion of wide scope this spring and
summer. Base ball and park recrea
tion are two activities that the director
will center on. Negotiations are under
way for the leasing of diamonds in
the first instance and also the con
struction of more park equipment in
the second case.
The director is !n receipt of a let
ter from T. J. Newkirk, real estate
agent for the Rock Island railroad.
regarding a block of vacant land along
Railroad avenue in Albright, which
was used as a base ball diamond years
ago. Last year a farmer secured pos
session of the lease and raised tarm
products on the soil, but the possi
bilities are that the property will oe
granted this year in a long-term lease
to the city.
Five base ball teams from the South
Side took part in the intercity ama
teur leagues. Four other new teams
have been formed, the Albright Ram
blers from Albright, the Tiny Tots
from West L street, the Mount Clairs
from Dundee and the South Omaha
Tigers from the Missouri avenue ter
ritory . The Brown fark Juniors, the
Missouri Avenue Cubs and the Al
bright Merchants were teams that
represented this portion of the city
last year. y
The community center meetings in
the West Side school building under
the direction of Paul McAuley, and
the athletic meets at the South High
school gymnasium under Vern Moore
and Miss Sterba of the recreation de

Piano Recital at
Urownell Hall by
Mme. Liszniewska
The second piano recital by
Madame Melville Liszniewska took
place last evening at Brownell Hall
for the benefit of the building fund of
that institution. Madame Liszniewska
is the official examiner of the students
at Brownell Hall, who are availing
themselves of the credit system in
practice at the hall. Her recital of
last evening confirmed anew the im
pression she made last season. She
was for many years one of the leading
assistants to Leschetiszkey in Vienna,
and her playing is marked by au
thority, technical freedom, and. dis
tinct interpretative individuality.
She is the possessor of tremendous
piwer, and unlimited endurance and
these stood her in good stead in the
difficult and brilliant program which
she presented. Mme. Liszniewska
while making up an orthodox pro
gram, also succeeded in avoiding the
more hackneyed numbers, and many
of those selected were of the lesser
known compositions of the great com
posers. She opened with the Sonata
Op. Ill by Beethoven, which is sel
dom heard and gave it a widely varied
reading, with some especially inter
esting tonal effects in the beautiful
"Adagio."
The Schumann "Famasiestucke" in
its entirety followed, the many dif
ferent moods of its component pieces
offering many opportunities for dy
namic contrast. The Chopin group
was made up of the "Ballade in F
major," another seldom heard number,
a little known "Waltz" in F minor,
the charming Nocturne in E major
and the C sharp minor Scherzo. The
Liszt "Liebestraum" of lovely and
familiar melody was followed by a
big brilliant Concert Etude in G flat
by Moszkowski, the final number of
the program proper, which displayed
again, the power and brilliance of the
player.
For the first encore, Mme. Lis
zniewski repeated by request the ex
quisite Polish "Folk Song" by Moni
uszko, which she played with espe
cial success on her program of last
year, and which proved again its
merit and beauty as a recital number.
A little known Chopin "Mazurka" as
a final encore, marked the close of the
recital. An informa' reception to
Mme. Liszniewski followel in the
main hall and the majority of the au
dience attended. H. M. R.
Franco-Belgian Art
' Exhibit Here in April
Undoubtedly the largest art collec
tion that has ever gone on tour is
the Franco-Belgian art exhibit, which
the Omaha Society of Fine Arts is
bringing to Omaha the middle of
April. Both ball rooms of the Fon
teaelle have been reserved for the ex
hibit, but Mrs. George B. Prinz says
some of the paintings will have to be
hung on the mezzanine floor.
The collection is distinctly modern,
since every one of the pictures has
been painted within the last fifteen
years. This is also the first entirely
foreign display of work the local so
ciety has ever brought here.
I lie trench paintings hung m the
fine arts galleries and the Belgian
ones in the French pavilion at the
Panama exposition. Mrs. Ward Bur
gess is chairman of the exhibition
committee.
Growth of Omaha In Seven
Years Surprises Mr. Kinney
John M. Kinney, Sacramento, Cal.,
supervisor of motor cars on the
Southern Pacific system, is in Omaha,
looking over his boyhood stamping
ground and renewing acquaintances.
Mr. Kinney is a son of Omaha, a
machinist graduated from the Union
racihe shops and has resided on the
Pacific coast seven years. He has
achieved success as an expert in rail
road motor car operation, having per
fected a carDuretor which burns dis
tillate, instead of gasoline. The de
vice effected a big saving in operat
ing power cost and resulted in his
promotion to the new post of su
pervisor.
ine growth and upbuilding of
Omaha in seven years is astounding,"
said Mr. Kinney, viewing the scene
from the roof of a skyscraper. "I
hardly know it, so great is the
change."

"EXPLANATION" OF
GERMANYDERIDED
Washington Officials Are Sur
prised at Frankness of Zim
' mermann'i Admission.
FREELY OWNS UP TO ALL
Confers With Kaiser
London, March 4. The German
foreign secretary, Dr. Zimmermann
had a long audience with the em
peror yesterday, according to
Berlin dispatch received by the Ex
change Telegraph company by way
of Amsterdam. It is generally sup
posed that the audien:e concerned
the Mexican question. It was fol
lowed by a conference between the
imperii; chancellor and Dr. Zim
nermann, at which several foreign
officials were present, at the chan
cellor's residence. -
Washington, March 4. German
Foreign Minister Zimmermann's frank
admission that Germany did seek to
ally Japan and Mexico with it to war
against the United States caused no
surprise to American officials, al
though it may be said they did not
expect so full and free an acknowl
edgement of the exposure.
Some officials had thought there
might be an attempt to discredit the
authenticity of the revelations by of
fering an explanation of a different
character. American officials hsve
never had the least doubt of the au
thenticity of the evidence in their
hands.
Situation Not Changed.
Minister Zimmermann's defense of
Germany's intrigue on the ground
that it was only intended to be car
ried out in the event the United
States did not remain neutra' is taken
not to change the situation in the
slightest degree.
Whether it was presented to Gen
eral Carranza or nQt, or the fact that
it is believed not to have been com
municated to Japan, do not, in the
opinion of American officials, alter
the established fact that Germany,
while seeking the offices of the United
States to make peace and while pro
testing its innocence in any intention
to violate American lives, wts at the
same moment preparing unrestricted
submarine warfare and was intrigu
ing to attack the United States with
two allies.
The Pan-American "Plot."
Mr. Zimmermann's reference to an
alleged "plot" by the United States to
unite pan-America against Germany
was regarded with mingled ieeling of
incomprehension and aniusement. The
pan-American Union, the Argentine
embassy and the State department
can find record of no such newspaper
publication as Zimmermann contends
revealed the "plot" in Buenos Aires.
The only event, which officials can
recall which is susceptible of being
distorted to such a charge as Zim
mermann makes was discussion early
in Secretary Bryan's term of office of
a plan to surround the Pan-Americas
with a neutral zone in which there
were to be no naval operations. Noth
ing ever came of it
Zimmermann's statement was read
in the senate today and some sena
tors, who were at first inclined to
think his published instructions to
von Eckhardt, German minister to
Mexico was a forgery, had the state
ment read twice.

V '-Boats Sink But
One Ship Saturday
l Hr Associated Frees.)
Except (or the announcement in
London that the Greek steamer
Proconissos, of 2,769 tons, has
been sunk by a submarine, no re
ports of losses from German sub
marine activities have been issued
from the entente capitals. The
French admiralty announces that
it will not not issue a daily list of
submarine losses, but will give out
a weekly summary. Figures
vouched for in London show that
German submarines destroyed
490,000 tons of merchant shipping
during February. This figure is letis
than half the 1,000,000 tons which
Berlin has claimed would result
from unrestricted submarine warfare.
British Advance on
Ancre; Russ Capture
"Hamadan, in Persia
(A- Associated Press.)
British troops maintain their daily
progress against the German lines on
the Ancre front in France. On Sat
urday, Field Marshal Haig's forces,
London records, made an average ad
vance of a quarter mile on a front
of nearly five miles, despite stubborn
German resistance.
The latest gain was made cast of
Fuisieux-Au-Mont and north of Com
mecourt, which would bring it almost
on the Essarte-Bucquoy-Bapaume
line, where it has been reported the
Germans were expected to make a
stand. Berlin says there have been
violent infantry encounters on both
banks of the Ancre and it is appar
ent Crown Prince Rupprecht Hs of
fering greater resisterlce to the Brit
ish attempts to advance.
Near Sailly-Saillisel, several miles
south of the British advance, and
northeast of Gueudecourt, the Ger
mans attacked the British lines. Re
pulsed at Guedecourt,a the Germans,
by a bombing attack) gained some
ground east of Sailly-Saillisel. The
lost ground is reported to have been
regained entirely by the British' On
the remainder of the western front
raids and artillery engagements have
occurred.
Hamadan, in Persia, 240 miles
northeast of Bagdad, the goal of the
present British advance in Mesopo
tamia has been captured by the Rus
sians, according to Teheran dis
patches. The occupation of Hamadan,
may presage another attempt by
the Russians to advance into Mesopo
tamia from the east to aid the Brit
ish forces there.
In a raid on Rlissian lines, west of
Lutsk, Volhynia, which were pene
trated nearly a mile, Berlin says the
Germans destroyed the Russian
works and took 122 prisoners.

BIG TASK TO MAKE BID
A big sigr was put up yesterday
i afternoon on lite Douglas auditorium,
near Uighleenth and Douglas streets,
announcing that it will be sold and
wrecked to make way for erection of
a building for the Omaha Athletic
club.
The old Cole-McKay undertaking
building, on the east side of the club's
site, is now being wrecked by Chris
Jensen, who bought it.
It is expected that the contract
will be lot in a short time for the
building, which will cost between
$450,000 and $500,000.
Figuring of the contract is a hard
task because of many details in plans.
One contractor has told officers of
the cluh that it cost him $2,000 to
figure the job, and he doesn't know
yet if he will get the contract.
Secretary Wharton has now taken
in more than $100,000 in membership
fees.
Dr. Towne to Show Bird
Slides Again Next Sunday
In response to popular requests, the
Audubon society is already arranging
to again show its new hand painted
bird slides, recently secured through
the National Geographic society from
Louis Agassi Feurtis, the famous
bird artist.
At the Enos Mills lecture last Mon
day evening, the fifty slides were hur
riedly shown, since when many peo
ple have asked for a more leisurely
projection with accompanying descrip
tion. To meet this demand, Dr. Soltft R.
