AN UNPARALLELED TIME
RECORD

Was made every day during the
period of the Omaha Exposition by
the trains of the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul Railway on Its
Chicago & Omaha Short Line.
Although its trains hauled from
ten to thirteen Well-filled sleeping
cara and coaches each night, yet
schedule time of arrival at Omaha
and at Chicago was an accomplished
fact-s record to be proud of, and
which has resulted in establishing
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway in the minds of the travel
ing community a. the shortest, best
and most reliable route between
Omaha and Chicago and the East.

"The esteemed Journal claims
that Thomas jefferson did not

It overlooks the fact that Jefferson
never claimed that there was any
justice in slavery. On the con-
trary, IN discussing the question,

Moreover, our fathers did not try
to govern the Indians any further
than IN self-defense. Every Indian
tribe was left free to make and
enforce its own laws, and it Is only
recently that . change has been
undertaken IN this regard. 1t Is
true that we compelled them to |
surrender their lands after unsuc-
csssful wars, but We went through |
the Formally Of making treaties
with them, which We usually violst-
ID, and of paying or promising to
pay them for their lands. But
Jefferson, Ike other intelligent
people, admitted that we often

right when he says "that its rati6.

In the Dispute Regarding Material for the
Chicago BuIidine.

Washington. April 27.-Concerning the
new postoffice building in Chicago. and

attitude Of the stoEecutters' union in
regard to that job. Secretary Gage
Itates that James Duncan, general sec
retary Of the Granite Cutters National
union. and John Beattie. called yester-
day and made the following general
statement in contraYention Of the state
ment made by the contractor, Pierce:
They say there is no absolute uniform
scale ofwages for stonecutters through
out the United States. different cities
and different localities having different
scales established: as. for instance. in
San Francisco the rule is eight hours at
70 cents an hour. or $3.50 a day; in
Montana eight hours-seven on Satur-
days-at from s. to Sc per day. Chicago.
since 1890. has had a uniform scale of
20 cents an hour and eight hours a day
OF work. Texas. Colorado, and Ne
braska have the same scale as Chicago.
THE facts set forth by the gentle
men Cthey say) have long been well
known and thoroughly understood by
stone contractors of Importance
throughout the country: that in No
vember. 1896. they notified all the prin-
cipal contractors by general resolution.
and by local resolutions in March. 1897,
that the price for the cutting of granite
for the Chicago postoffice building would
be the scale established in Chicago. to
wit: as cents an hour. eight hours a
day. and that this would be the price
for cutting that stone. no matter where
the stone should be cut. They state
furher that Pierce and all the other
bidders for the Chicago postoffice bid
with the Chicago scale in their minds.

nEpR1MASp FOR CAPT. coGHLAN.
Matter Is Now Regarded as Settled by
Both Parties.

Washington, April 27.-The case OF
Captain Coghlan may be Considered as
finally closed. The German ambas-
sador, DR.. Won Holleben, called at the
White House yesterday afternoon and
had a conference on the subject with
the president OF such n satisfactory
nature that the matter was regarded
as settled. The president explained the
course the navy department had taken
in administering a reprimand TO Cap
tain Coghlan- It was also pointed out
that the officers explanation of the
incident stated that his utterances had
been much exaggerated. On the part
of the amba ssador there was every dis
position to deal as lightly with the mat
ter as possible and not to permit it to
become a source of friction.
During the day the navy department
administered to Captain Coghlan the
reprimand which had been determined
upon. This was in the form of a letter
from Secretary Long to the officer. 1t
is stated at the department that the
letter will not be made public before
the officer has received ii, and prob
ably not then. The department made
public brief statement OF the con-
tents of Captain Coghlan's letter in an
swer to Secretary Longs request for
an acknowled gment of responsibility
for the utterances ascribsd to him. but
the contents were more fully stated in
Tuesdays Associated Press dispatches
The statement is as follows: Captain
Coghlan has replied 20 the department,
stating that the newspapers have not
reported him with substantial accuracy.
Also, that he intended no disrespect or
contempt to the German flag. and is
extremely sorry that, any such inter-
probation was put uDon his remarks.
Proper reprimand VIII be sent and such
action taken in respect thereto as is
