A CHANGE has been made in the
department of Santiago. Maj r
General Henry Lawton has been
placed in command, General
Wood will be in immediate com
mand of the city,
SPANS reply to President Nc
Kinley's peace terms are not salts
factory, and an ultimatum has been
sent embracing all of the original
conditions, and Spain has been
given forty eight hours in which to
accept.
A DISPATCH published in Brus-
sells paper says that Don Carlos is
about TO enter Spain and take
immediate action to seize the
government. The Carlists are said
to have 100000 rifles and plenty of
ammunition.
The bombardn.ent of Manzan-
lilo, on the south coast of Cuba, by
American ships began last Friday,
Just twenty minutes before the
peace was signed. The result at
this writing is not known, but the
Americans were successful.
IT IS estimated that standing
army of 100000 men will be re-
ouired to do garrison duty in Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines.
1t is thought that General Fitz-
hugh Lee will be placed in COM
mand of Western Cuba and
Havana,
THE report that Capt. General
Blanco had escaped from Havana
is false. 1t is said that he would
like to get away, as he is afraid of
being court martialed on account
of the destruction of Ceryera $ fleet,
for which he is held responsible
by his government.
The congressional convention of
the tenth district, held at Yoakum
last Friday, was veritable love
feast. w. S. Robson was nomi-
mated by reclamation, the issues
have been stated, and Hawley, or
whoever may be the nominee of
the republican party, had better
look ''leetle oud,".
EDITOR w. A. MAR of the Hal
letsville Herald would have made
an excellent member of the demo-
cratic state executive committee,
and would have been honored with
the position had the proposition
not been sprung that Colorado
county, and not Lavaca, was en-
titled to it.-Weimar Mercury.
The officers are unable to obtain
any clue as to the whereabouts Of
murderer Shaw, who escaped from
the Cleburne Jail last Wednesday
morning. Shaw was guilty of y
most brutal murder, and was to
have been hung last Friday, and it
is feared lie will not be recaptured,
A wholesale lynching occurred
at Clarendon, Arkansas, last We'd
nesday. Four negroes, one a
woman, were taken from the Jail
by crowd of 300 men and hanged
in an old saw-milI. They were
charged with the brutal assassina-
ton of John 4. Orr, prominent
merchant of Clarendon. Mrs. Orr,
wife of the murdered man, was also
under arrest as an accessory to the
crime, and committed suicide in
the Jail by taking poison.

Street in Good Condi,ion

Yesterday Judge Scott of the district
court granted a temporary injunction ap-
piled for by H. NJ. Christie against the
Omaha Gas company, and it is understood
that the hearing for a permanent injunc-
ton Will not come up until the September
term of court. This injunction was secured
by Mr.. Christie upon the representation
that the franchise granted to the Omaha
Gas company was not legal, owing to the
fact that the ordinance had been read once
by title instead of in full as required by
law, The Omaha Gas company now has
mains laid along N street, from Twentieth
to REIMBURSEMENT streets, with the excep-
ton of the intersection at Twenty-fourth
street. Since work commenced last fall the
company has been stopped twice by ~injunc-
tions. The first time the trenches were left
open, but the last injunction did not inter-
fere with the relaying of the pavement, and
the street is in good condition, so that the
public will not be Inconvenience by the
stOppage of the work.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.

Yesterday City Clerk Carpenter received
from the county auditor a statement showing
the amount due from the city for commit
tails, board and lodging of prisoners from
July /, 1897, to March 3, 1898. This bill, in
GLIDING the balance due on the old account,
now amounts to Sc, 905.5 81. The cost to. the
city for the keeping of prisoners confined in
the county Jail by months, commencing with
last July, follows: July, sos; August, s16S;
September, SIPS; October, Sl49; November,
s176; December, s193; January, $1O2; Febru-
airy, $97; March, 1923.
1t is noticed that this statement charges
the city with the board and lodging of
prisoners confined on state complaints. For
instance, Henry Hecht and Peter Moore
were sent up on July . Of last year, charged
ON a state complaint with ma%nslaughter
From July until the end of December the
board and lodging of these men were
charged to the city of South Omaha, which
amounted to S123.2O. Other prisoners sent
up on state complaints are charged the same
and the local authorities say that this is all
wrong. Another item of expense is the
committing of common DRINKS to the county
jail. Under Judge Christmann's regime
nearly all of the well known drunks, such
as Dan Dugan and Sergeant Daily, were
sent up for from ten to twenty days each
month. According to the records, Dan Du-
gan spends half of each month in the
county jail at the expense of the taxpayers.
Nothing has ever been paid on this ac-
count and there is no telling when an effort
VIII be made to settle 1t. More than likely
the city officials will take the matter up and
induce the county officials to cancel that
portion or the debt which was incurred by
prisoners confined on state complaints.

CUT THE LIVESTOCK RATES
oil
Port Arthur Route Makes a Deep Slash in
the Tariff.
FIvE-CENT RATE FROM PkTToNSBURG
Reduction Intended to Meet the Com
petition of the Chicapo-0mnhn
Lines on The sEastbound
Heri.

On Tuesday. June "A, the Kansas City,
Pittsburg G. Gulf railroad will put int oef-
feet a reduction in live stock rates to the
South Omaha market that will be most far
reaching in its effects. Should the reduced
rates be continued in force for some time
1T cannot but attract to the South Omaha
market a large quantity of live stock from
western Iowa that is now being sent to Chi
cago.
The new rate will be a blanket rate of 5
cents per 100 pounds from all points on the
Omaha & st. Louis branch of the Port Ar
thur system to South Omaha. This branch
is LAG miles long and extends from Council
Bluffs in a southeastern direction through
Iowa and Missouri to Pattonsburg, Mo. From
all points on this line the new rate on ship
ments of cattle and hogs will be 5 cents per
100 pounds. The rate will be the same from
Pattonsburg, Mo, to South Omaha as from
Council Bluffs to South Omaha. The rate
which has been In effect for some time from
PattonsbuiS to South Omaha is 141s cents
per 100 pounds on cattle and 1919 cents per
100 pounds on hogs.
The cut has been contemplated for two
weeks. Numerous conferences have been
held between General Freight Agent Sar-
geant and his assistant in this city, George
Entrikin. The wide deviation of the
Iowa lines from their published
tariffs on live stock were directly RESPONSE
BILE for the cut. AS Mr.. Entrikin said: 'If
the lines to Chicago can afford to carry live
stock for 10 cents per 100 pounds a distance
of 500 miles, l guess we can carry the same
kind of freight, . cents per 100 pounds, for
a distance of $50 miles, The cut is an
nounced to be a permanent affair and it is
certain to continue until such time as a
general restoration of live stock rates shall
be effected. The announcement of the cut
caused some CONSERVATION among the
Omaha-Chicago lines and it was freely pre-
dicted that the scent rate of the Port Ar
thur route would not last thirty days. On
the other hand, the officials of the enter
prising north and south line declare that the
cheap rate is in and Is in to stay and that
In a very few days some of the Chicago lines
will learn to their cost how much live stock
can be diverted to the South Omaha market
by a cheap rate.

Pe-ru-na is a specific for climatic dis

into the system through the mucous menu
branes. A healthy mucous membrane pro-
tects the system from climatic diseases. No

that no other kind of laundry soap would be
used in the United States. But while we do
the best we can our advertising may exercise
no greater influence over the average public
than that of any other soap producers.
Like other manufactured staples, be the
quality ever so good, they Will not ind a
market awaiting them-it can be secured
only by the greatest effort. The marketing
is as important as is the manufacture. This
is where advertising comes in. We are under
great obligations to the wholesale and retail
dealers. but without the prospect of demand
by the consumer neither will stock UP; there
fore, we must create the demand by the
consumer by means Of advertising. While
1t Geems extravaganza to spend large SUM

reminded Mr.. Strauss that considering
that the Cudahy Packing company was in
the business of soap making only a little
over a year 1t seemed to me that they had
nothing to complain of ON the score OF sue
cess; that, on the contrary, very few of the
older factories could boast of a more ex-
ut is true" Mr.. Strauss went on, that
our success In the soap line has been re-
markable, but such has been the history
of all our other departments. j believe 1t is
largely due to what Is called

1t is truly wonderful TO see the enormous

FrOu these frames the soap is put into
