A BLOW AT WOMEN.
Female Employees of tho Union Pacific MAY
I.o~e Their Jobs.

Omaha. Neb.. Dec. 21.-The announce
ment that the directory of all the in
terests OF the Chicago n Northwestern
Railroad Company has decided to
cease employing women and to dis
pense with the services of those Mt
present on their pay rolls has created
CONSERVATION in this part of the
country. While there are at least five
times as many men in the service of
the Northwestern lines In this section
as women. the discharge of SO many
women accustomed TO earn their own
living and having no one to rely upon
for their support is regarded as a seri-
GUS problem.
This rule will affect the women EN-
ployed on the Chicago & Northwestern.
Chicago. ST. Paul. Minneapolis 4 Oma-
ha, Fremont. Elkhorn X Missouri Val
ley. the Union Pacific. the Union Pa
cific. Denver Il Gulf. the Oregon Short
Line X Utah Northern and the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company.
The number of women employed on
these various lines west of the Mis-
souri, river Will run into the thousands.
When Horace q. Burt became presi-
dent of the Union Pacific il was an
nounced that no more women would
be employed by that company. and
while no women could be discharged
TO make places for men, when any of
them quit. their places would be filed
by men. This provoked some uneasi-
ness among the women connected with
the Union Pacific mt headquarters ana
along the line. but ii did not cause that
degree of alarm that now pervades the
ranks of the female employees of the
Northwestern lines.
The order at first was that no woman
would bc discharged who had been in
III, employ of the companies more than
two years. but later the order appears
10 have been made more sweeping. On
the lines of these companies west of
the river female clerks perform very
largely the inferior services that are
commonly assigned to the sterner sex.
Especially is this true of stenograph-
crs, station agents, ticket sellers. and
headquarters clerks. Their salaries
though not averaging as high as the
men employed i'll the same line of
work. have been very well kept up
and many girls to-day are drawing SI5
and $50 per month from these compan-
les.

then visited Paterno, and now, 1t is re-

VIII BE wsged In Congress to Estab-
Iish Rspabiies In Cuba. Porto Rieo aud
the Philippines

Chicago. Dee. ia dispatch from
Washington TO the Record says:
Having failed to command SUFFICIENT
votes to prevent the ratification of the
treaty OF peace, the Democratic leaders
now propose to organize for permanent
opposition to Il colonial policy and 10
secure the establishment of independ-
ent governments in Cuba. Porto Rico
and the Philippine Islands. They de-
sire that the issue for the next cam
paign shall be: shall the United
States have colonies. or shall We cut
loose from the Philippines and the
West Indies as soon as we have organ
ized governments for themi'
This Is Mr.. Bryan's plan, and he ad-
yocated IL with great earnestness
among the Democratic leaders during
the two or three days he spent in
Washington. He abandoned the light
against the treaty with great reluct-
ance. 1t took long time 10 convince
him there was no use in adopting an
issue that could not win, and that to
be defeated on such an important mat
ter would damage him for the next
campaign. II IL did not deprive him of
leadership.
Among the Democrats and Populists
who are going TO vote for the treaty are
Bryan's best friends. including Allen

not Yet announced their intentions.
This new issue viii necessitate Il new
alignment of parties. for many ardent
advocates OF expansion are Democrats.
The people here are very few who be-
licve that there will be any other issue
before the people at the next cam
palgn. The new alignment of the peo-
pie of the United States on this Issue
VIII bring together some combinations
that Will be quite as novel as Mr..
Bryan and Mr.. Carnegie. such as Mr..
Hoar and Senator Tiliman. ex-senator
Sherman and Mr.. Bailey. 1t will look
very queer to see them walking arm
in arm under the same banner and
stepping to the same music.
One feature OF the new Democratic
policy VIII be opposition TO the Increase
Of the army, which. IL Is believed. VIII
be popular among the workingmen.
When Mr.. Bryan was here the other
day he laid great stress on this point
and also upon the competition of Ma
lay labor In the Philippines with Amer
lean workingmen, and the destruction
of the beet-root and cane sugar inter
ests.

A warshIp and Two Regiments Leave
Manila.

Washington. ID. c.. Dec. 27.-The ad-
ministratnon has taken steps TO safe
guard American interests in the city
OF Iloilo. on the island OF Panay. one
of the Philippine archipelago, and A
military and naval expedition is now
on Its way there from Manila.
Cable advices were received here to-
day from General Otis. commanding
the military forces In the Philippines.
and Admiral Dewey, commanding the
naval forces there. showing that they
are acting in concert In the matter.
General Otis reported that he had
dispatched two regiments and a bat
terry of artillery to Iloilo on army trans
ports, and Admiral Dewey notified the
Navy department that the cruiser Bal
timore had sailed from Manila for the
same place.
1t is explained that these officers are
acting upon their own discretion in the
matter, and that no official advices
have been received here to indicate
that there is any unusual lawlessness
In Iloilo.
Several days ago it was reported by
way of Madrid that the Spanish forces
in Iloilo had been attacked by the in
surgenfs and had driven them back
with heavy losses. but this report lacks
official confirmation. The United States
expedition Is more in the nature of a
precaution. but will take active meas
ures for the suppression of lawlessness

Standard OIL Company Charged With De
stroying Important Evidence.
Cleveland. Ohio, Dec. 21.-Develop-
ments of a most sensational nature in
the Standard OH investigation case
came to light to-day when Attorney
General Monnett began tnkfng depOsi-
tions for the purpose Of proving that
the Standard Oil Company. just previ-
GUS to the issue Of the order Of the
court that the books of the company be
produced in court, had destroyed Q
large number OF the books.
Upon the strength of this information
received by the attorney general, the
state served notice upon the STANDARD
OIL Company that dispositions would be
taken before a notary in the ONCE OF
Attorney Harry c. Mason, In this city,
to-day.
During the investigation OF the
Standard OIL trust before Commission
er Brinsmade few weeks ago, the
Standard refused to produce its books
in evidence. The matter was taken 70
the Supreme Court, and ON December
eth that court ordered the Standard Oh
Company to produce ITS books covering
the period from 1902 to 1897 to show
whether the Standard had paid divi-
dends during that time to the holde9p.
Of the trust certificates.

Serious Race Riot Results In Three J
Deaths.


Dallas. Texas, Dec 2j.-A crowd OF
several thousand whites and blacks
gathered by the burning of saloon
building became involved in race riot
this evening and when the battle was
were seriously wounded, and dozen
others slightly injured.
In addition. one man fell dead on the
sidewalk during the fire, and n woman

James Dove.
A. c. Carr. negro: injured in riot.
The presence of Il large force of po-
lice prevented a more deadly conflict.
Just how the riot started seems i'm
possible to determine. 1t came on sud
denly between Franks. ludlow and
Debruin. white men, on one side. and
about dozen negroes on the other. In
moment White was dead, his neck
broken and his skull crushed with n
heavy piece OF iron pipe. Holland was
stabbed five times and was dead an
hour after the conflict.
Franks, Holland aud Debruin We're
all stabbed and bruised and are In the
hospital department OF the county Jail
Carr and Dove are seriously stabbed
and bruised and are also under arrest.
Ii is remarkable that SO few deaths

knives, pistols, clubs and other weap-
ons.

THE TREATY is SAFE.
Democrats Will Vote for 1t and Then
Fight Expansion.

De emocrHts Will Vote Tor 1t and Then
Fight Expansion.
Washington. Dec. 22-With the ad-
journment of Congress for the holi-
days the final disposition Of the peace
treaty is as clear as II will be after the
vote has been taken in the Senate.
Developments of the past few days
have removed whatever doubt there
may have been, and, Notwithstanding
reports to the contrary, the individu-
ality of William Jennings Bryan has
had much to do with shaping the end
that is certain to come.
Bryan has been here in Washington
for several days and has conferred fre-
quently and freely with Democratic
leaders of both the Senate and the
House. He has advised the ratifica-
tion of the treaty, and he is outspoken
in the opinion that, aside from the
question of national obligation, 1t Is a
matter of party policy for the Demo
Gratis to throw no obstacle in the way
of ratification.
Ii must not be understood that the
ratification of the treaty will carry
with II the assumption that all those
who vote affirmatively are In favor Of
national expansion across the Pacific.
OF the senators who will vote In favor
OF the treaty there will be Republicans.
as well as Democrats. who are opposed
In principle. as well as in theory, to
the trans-oceanic expansion Of our ma
tional domain.
They take. however, and very prop
erly, the view that the question of ex-
pansion per se is not involved in the
consideration of the peace treaty, and
that after the treaty has been ratified
and Spain has been eliminated as a
factor In the Philippine problem, will
n. ar<<,
policy which Is TO be pursued In deal
ing with the Philippines. And just
here will come the real contest ON the
Question of eyDansiOu
