that when the little one was 6 days old her

LINCOLN, July 2s.-(special Telegram.)-
The unheralded visit of D.. II. Mercer and
Frank Ransom during the early hours this
morning may be significant in connection
with the indefinite postponement Of Gov
ernor Savage's trip to Omaha to confer with
interested persons regarding the Fire and
Police commission appointments, especially
as the two men were in close consultation
with the governor while here. They came
on the train arriving here at 1910 a. m.
They we're Joined down town by the gov
ernor and together the three went to the
Elks' clubrooms, where they remained while
the reports Of the Jeffries- FitEsimmoni
prize fight were coming in. After the knock
out they went to the Lincoln hotel. where
they remained in uninterrupted conference
for over an hour. The midnight visitors
left the city on the 7:45 train. returning to
Omaha.
THAT was all a pipe dream" said a man
close to the governor, speaking Of the re-
port in The Bee that Governor Savage
would arrive In Omaha at 8 o'clock this
afternoon. He didn't intend to go any Of
the time"
Notwithstanding the declaration Of Gov
ernor Savage and his friends to the con-
trary, there are good grounds for the as
sertion that the meeting Of the early morn
ing was prearranged, but on short notice
and that 1t was all because OF the gov
ernor's expressed intention to listen tc
Omaha taxpayers before making the ap-
pointments. The reason Mercer is inter
esting himself in the case is self-evident
for with a commission whose appointment
he has dictated or influenced he will be n
a position to exercise authority over the
commissions creatures. One man almost
