netter street Car service wanted.

OMAHA, Nov. 25.-To the Editor of The
Bee: Knowing that you have fought many
battles in the past for what you believed
to be right ! venture to attempt to enlist
your service in what is of a great interest
to many workingmen.
I have been going to work in South
Omaha for more than five years and the
the street car are not very good. We are
almost poweress to help ourselves, being
scattered all over the city, and having long
hours to work 1t is almost impossible for
us to make an organized effcrt in our own
behalf. We therefore venture to ask your
aid in the matter and do not let it rest until
something is done for US. y
Let me state a few facts concerning the
matter The cars are SC crowded that 1t Is
impossible on some of the trains to even
find room on the platform and sometimes
some of the men get on top of the car You
cannot understand how unpleasant 1t is
unless you try it yourself. to be out on the
platform for five ten-mile ride in the
cold or rain, holding your dinner pail In one
hand, while with the other you try to keep
from getting crowded off. Add to this
so that when we get part way on our jour
ney the, motor gives out. Then imagine the
scramble of the passengers of two trains
to get on one BY the time we get to South
Omaha we are late for our work. Is 1t be-
cause we are common workmen wearing
overalls, or can ii be possible that the com
pany is not aware of such a state of af-
fairs? Il is commonly reported that the
service on other lines is better than on the
South Omaha line. 1t would be a good idea
for you to send one of your men to ride
some morning and see for himself what
kind of service We are compelled to put up
with. A PASSENGER.

CATTLE-There were no cattle here
today to amount to anything and not
enough to make a market so that there
were, no new features of Importance in the
trade.
The cattle market this week has been in
rather peculiar condition, due to the fact
that while the receipts at this point have
been light there has been large run at
eastern market points and lower prices.
In consequence there has been presented
at this point the unusual spectacle of light
receipts and lower prices on beef steers. AS
a still further demoraliZer was the fact that
the coming week contains a poultry holi-
day, when beef will be in small demand.
Chicago reported for the week break of
50cG$1.00 on half-fat cattle, as compared
with the high time, and the market at
this point could safely be quoted SOC lower
on the same basis. Right good and we'll
finished cattle have not suffered very much
loss, though they, too, are little lower.
1t has been a slow, dull, and mean market
all the week and just the kind of a market
that no one likes.
Cows and heifers have been in small
supply all the week, and good kinds of
cows firmed up little the latter half of
the week, there being a gain probably of
about 10c. Gamers have not shown any
material change.
Stockers and feeders were in very small
supply so that the market showed some
little gains the latter part of the week, and
at the close could safely be reported as 100
15c higher. Representative sales:

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Nov. 25.-Great
interest is manifested here in the suit Of c..
M. Barton against Colonel w. T. Durbin,
late of the One hundred and Sixty first In
diana volunteers. growing out of the Cos
ing of Bartons fruit and sundry store near
Durbin's camp by him last summer Barton
sues for $4,000. Durbin in defense gives
Lees orders and attempts to show that the
liquors were injurious to his men and that
the prices charged for his goods were usuri-
ous. Another suit of the same nature Is
pending in the United States court. If Bar
ton wins his suit ten or more actions will
be started against other regiment and bri-
gade commanders.
