No Semblance of Rape.

AS soon as Assistant County Attorney
Troup arrived Friday and Investigated the
charges made against L. d. Mcdonald by
E. H. Wilson, he dismissed the complaint
of rape, and a new charge of simple assault
was substituted.
Mr.. Mcdonald admitted that when he
called at Wilson's house he shook hands with
Mrs. Wilson and kissed her. He said he did
nothing more, and would not have at
tempted to kiss her il she had not posed her
face In a sort of inviting attitude. In short,
he only gave the lady what he thought she
wanted.
Mrs. Wilson, however, said that McDon-
aid went further than to kiss her. That he
took hold of her and tried to pull her into
a chair. Judge Fowler fined Mcdonald $40
and costs, which he promptly paid.
Mr.. Mcdonald has worked in South Omaha
for a long time and has always borne a
good reputation. He admits that he was
indiscreet in kissing Mrs. Wilson. but cen
sures Wilson and the parties who caused a
warrant to be issued for him on so serious
a charge as rape. If the county attorney
had been here no such warrant could have
been secured, as there was no evidence to
support it,

GENEVA. Neb,, Feb. 10.-(Special to The

Until this date this city has supported three
papers, two republican and one democrat.
Both OF the republican sheets have been en-
terprlsing and have seemed to bring a fair
revenue to their promoters. But for reasons
sufficient TO their managers they have been
sold to Frank o. Edgecombe. and will be
consolidated under the title OF the Repub-

U N COMMISSIONERS.
Major Paddock's Joke Discussing d
tlonal Room for Court Purposes.

Major Paddock's Joke Discussing dbl
tional Room for Court Purposes.
Owing to the fact that there were other
matters to occupy the attention of the minds
of the members of the Board of County Com
missioners, the regular weekly meeting was
not held yesterday afternoon.
After the reading of the minutes and be-
fore the transaction of any business the
board adjourned until tomorrow afternoon,
at which time the committee on charity will
make q report generating County Physician
Lanyon from all blame in connection with
the charges preferred against him by the
officers of the Central Labor union, in which
it was alleged that he neglected the poor
who were entrusted to his professional care.
AT the Monday meeting Mr.. Paddock has
declared that he will introduce resolutions,
of which the following is a copy:
Whereas, Economy in tho various depart
ments OF the county service has caused the
commissioners TO reduce salaries and other
wise curtail expenses among the employees
subject to the direction of this board; and
Whereas, Legislative enactment has fixed
the salaries of the commissioners at $3.50 per
month,
Resolved, That in the absence of any legis-
lative enactment TO reduce these salaries the
commissioners h6rS present waive technical
rights and agree 70 cover into the county
cent of their salaries.
Tho other members of the board are of the
opinion that the resolution is one of Mr.. Pad
docks grim jokes. They refuse to say
whether they win vote for the adoption of
the resolution, or consign it to the files.
The judges OF tho district court and the
county commissioners got together yester-
day and for an hour or more discussed the
question Of additional rooms for the county
officials and the jurles. While no action was
taken many opinions were expressed as to
how things should be, but in the end the
arrangement of everything was left to the
commissioners.
just what will be done the commissioners
have not yet decided, though one thing is
sure, and that is that the sheriff will awe TO
move, but TO what place is not certain. as
three objective points are in view. One
plan is To remove him TO the residence rooms
in the jail building, while another is to have
quarters fitted up in the southwest corner of
the basement and locate him there. An
other scheme is TO remove County Attorney
Haley from the building and give the sheriff
the two rooms now occupied by the attorney.
The jurors will continue TO occupy their pres
ent rooms in the basement, though these
quarters Will be made more comfortable by
placing carpets on the floors and adding bet
ter furniture,
1t was suggested that the basement
windows DO lowered TO the ground line and
that at least two of these underground
rooms be fitted up and furnished as court
rooms, No final action, however was taken
with reference TO this matter. The pro-
posed cutting of co art room No. I into two
small court rooms was discussed ana favored
by most OF the members of the bench.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Stock Yards Company Delighted by a Ta-
vorable Change in Freight Rates,
BENEFIT TO THE SOUTH OMAHA MARKET
Mcdonald Paid Ten Dollars for Kissing
Mrs. wilson-Citizens Campaign Club
Organized-High School Entertain
ment-Othcr Magic city News.

General Freight Agent Howard Elliott OF
the Kansas City, st. Joe & Council Bluffs
railroad has isued an order which goes into
effect next Monday which means a great deal
for the shippers and the Union Stock Yards
company. The order makes Bigelow the di-
viding line on this road between Omaha
and Kansas City, and in the future the.
freight rates from this point to either Kan
sas City or Omaha will be exactly the same.
This will be a great benefit to this city.
In the past 1t has cost the shippers as much
to ship stock from Hamburg. Ia, only a
distance of fifty miles from Council Bluffs,
to South Omaha as it did to Kansas City,
a distance OF $50 miles. And in addition to
this there was n bridge toll of 81 on each car
In and So on each car out.
The new order also absorbs the bridge
toll, both in and out of Omaha, and will
open up a new field for the South Omaha
market. The Stock Yards company has
asked for this matter to be adjusted for n
long time and the Kansas City road. which
Is a part of the Burlington system, was the
first company to grant the request. The
Stock Yards company greatly appreciates Mr..
Elliott's concession and Manager Babcock
was elated when he received the news yes
terday.
1t is believed that the other roads cover
ing this territory will follow the example
set by Mr.. Elliott.
President Parkhurst of the Live Stock Ex-
change received the following letter last
evening:

Stock Exchange, South Omaha. Neb.: Dear
Slr-I am just in receipt OF II letter from Mr..
Howard Elliott, general freight agent of the
Kansas City, st. Joseph & Council Bluffs rail-
road, advising of "A new tariff on live stock,
taking effect February II, in which the same
rates are named from Bigelow, Mo, to Council
Bluffs and Omaha AS are now made to Kansas
City, Bigelow being about an equal distance
between Omaha and Kansas City. This tariff
not only puts us on an equal footing with
Kansas City on live stock. but also absorbs the
bridge toll on such shipments to and from sta
lions on that line of road In Iowa and Missouri
to South Omaha.
we consider this quite n concession OF rates,
of which | would feel obliged II you would ad-
wise members of the Live Stock exchange.
Yours truly, W. n. BABCOCk,
