The Grievance COMMITTEES Of Me-
chanics Can Get No Action.
The grievance committee of the
Brotherhood of Mechanics and Iron
Workers along the system of the Great
Northern railroad are still holding daily
meetings in the Odd Fellow block. The
committee is made up of representatives
from several parts of the country and
extending as far west as Tacoma. The
meetings began several weeks ago and
were designed to secure some cOnceS-
sions relative to hours of work and the
rules regulating shop work. The QueS-
ton of wages has not been brought to
the front. A formal agreement WAS
drawn up about a month ago aud sub
mitted to the foremen of the shops Tor
approval. There was no adjustment
reached then, and the committee has
been seeking an audience with the
higher officials of the road. President
J. j. Hill has not been interviewed by
the men vet OWING to his absence on the
Pacific slope. The delay of several
weeks has made the brotherhood clam
orouS for a disposition Of the matters in
VOlVed and the committee here has been
receiving messages urging prompt
action. The excuse for not diSpOSing OF
the work of the committee is the absence
OF Mr. Hill.
Itis expected that crisis will be
reached i'll the premises soon, as tue
committee as well as the rotherhOod
are becoming impatient. T, outcome
is awaited with intereSf, aS he questions
involved affect labor problems of con-
siderable magnitude.

STILL UNSOLVED.
FruitIess Attempt TO Unite Rail-
road Knot.


road Knot.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1S.-One of the knotty
problems that the Western roads have
long been wrestling with is that of es-
tablishing satisfactory basis of freight
rates on east-bound traffic passing
through Kansas City. Formerly the
through rate on grain shipments
from the territory west of the Missouri
river to Chicago was the sum of the
locals. This was changed after some of
the roads had so extended their systems
that they owned lines both east and
west Of the river. and were conse-
quently indepa ndent of their former
connections. Then these roads adopted
a through rate considerably lower than
the combined locals. Under this ar
rangement shippers were allowed to
offer their grain for sale on the Kansas
City market and, within a certain time
were privileged to ship it eastward at
tue proportion of the through rate.
Roads terminating at the river were
only enabled to get share OF this bust
ness by accapting what was left of the
through grain shipment all break bulk at
Kansas City, there is general scramble
for the east-bOuud business. and the
situation has become decidedly mixed.
The proportion ate rates are not uni
form. but range from 10 to Is cents per
100 pounds from the Missouri river to
Chicago. Large numbers of the Kansas
City grain dealers have been signing
petitions to the railroads to make a
flat" rate from Kansas City to Chicago

MASKED AS A MARSH AL.
w. B. COwen Charged With Mas.
querading as an Off
ciai
And Collecting Moneys to Which
He Had No
Claim.

W. B. Bowen, alias w. B. Cowen, is
being tried before Judge Edgerton and
a jury i'll the United States district
court on an Indictment for representing
himself to be a United States marshal
of Washington, ID. c., and collecting
special tax to the amount Of $3.50 from
E. W. Finch, a druggist at Hastings.
1t is believed that the man has been
carrying On considerable business in
the same line. In fact, he went OH the
stand and asserted tnat he was dep
uty marshal. ana had collected money in
this line. The man thought to make the
court believe that he was an officer and
that he was authorized to collect the
money, but he was unfortunate in say
ing that he had been authorized to do
such business in Dakota and had taken
parties before commissioner there to
answer for not paying the special tax.
Judge Edgerton resides at Sioux Falls,
and is very familiar with the federal
proceedings in both the DakOtaS. He
took Bowen in hand and gave him a
severe croSS-eXaminati0n that left no
doubt III the mind OF the prisoner, as
we'll as the jury, that the man had
started on a hot trail. He then gave
Bowen until this morning to de-
wise way to straighten out his story as
to his operations In Dakota. The
district attorney exhibited a bundle
OF papers, cards, kilograms, etc,
which made damaging showing to the
man. Among these we're several checks.
1t was claimed that Bowen is an as
Sumed name, ami that the true name is
Cowen. This was admitted by the man
on the witness stand. 1t seems that
Governs father is a resident of the
northern part of the state. and the rela
tiyeS are respectable. The wife and
two small children Of the prisoner were
present during the trial. The wife
looks like she was we'll raised, and the
children are bright looking and pretty.
1t is said that the family is in depend
ent circumstances, and is supported by
charity since the incarceration of
Bowen, or Cowen, which is his true
name.

doubtedly caused the illness aud death

that the death was from cholera NOR
bus. The effects OF the deceased were
burned by the health officers. and Oh
the arrival of his chest by freight it will
be disinfected, unless such ali action has
already been taken.
