OMAHA
OFFICIALS OF THE UNION PACIFIC
CONFIRM CLOSING OF CHEY-
ENNE SHOPS.
Stated There That the Shops Are to
Be Closed Permanently and Near
Iy All the Machinists Given En-
pIoyment At Other Shops Of the
company-Fatal Accident At Blu.
ford.

The Union Pacific has closed its
shops at Cheyenne and as a result $50
men are idle. say the Omaha Bee. A
special telegram to this effect was pub
lished in the Bee yesterday morning
and confirmed in detail by the Union
Pacific officials III Omaha during the
day.
The order closing down the shops
was issued from the headquarters in
this city late Tuesday. 1t stated that
the shops are to be closed permanent
ly and the machinery dismantled with
in a few days. The clerical force at
Cheyenne. which is included in the
order d~ischarging the men, worked far
into the night Tuesday making out
time checks for the employees. The
company's pay roll at Cheyenne by
this action. is reduced $4,000 a month.
The number Of men let out-650- in
cludes those boilermakers and helpers
who struck a few days ago. The COM
pany retains its round-house and cal
shops at Cheyenne. and in the former
affords employment to twenty-five men.
A minimum force will be kept at work
ir the car shops.
More than one reason led the Union
Pacific to take this action. The pre-
e strike of the boilermakers and the
somewhat disturbed conditions in one
or two other departments figured prom
inently. while the cost Of living In
Cheyenne is also partly responsible.
AS to the former condition. the COM
pany decided upon a re~trenchment pol
icy when the boilermakers went out
n the first tangible evidence Of this
policy was the order issued last Sat
urday by which 525 men in the shops
over the system were discharged. The
company has maintained from the first
Of these labor complications hat as
the boilermakers had gone out its af-
fairs we're in such a shape as to invite
, 1902-06-27

a general reduction of its mechanical
force n not warrant the retention
Of the entire army of employees in its
shops.
1t therefore embraced the occasion
for keeping operating expenses down
while the labor disputes were in pro-
cess. The officials claimed and yet
maintain that the company is fully pre-
pared for a prolonged stagnation in
its shops if necessary.
Regarding the claim that living ex-
penses in Cheyenne had a part in clos
ing down the shops. it is said hat for
some time great dissatisfaction along
this line has existed and that efforts
have been made to secure a reduction
in the cost Of living in that city. The
strike Of the boilermakers. it is believ-
ed. was in a Measure prompted by this
same reason. The position of the COM
pany in not accedihg to demands of
the shopmen for an advance in wages,
so that they could the better maintain
their families, was that if a raise was
made it would be Offset by a cores
ponding increase in the cost Of living
in Cheyenne and that then the problem
would be as far from a solution as
ever.
Where will the work that has beer
done by the Cheyenne shops be per
formed?
Does the closing Of these shops mean
a corresponding curtailment in the
company's facilities thai is to be per-
manent?
These are vital questions suggested
by the innovation. officials who are
best qualified to speak upon the sub
ject answer that first question by say
ing tina the work will be divided among
the various shops over the system. the
bulk to be given to Omaha. Rawlins to
get a liberal share. Armstrong and
other places to figure in the apportion-
ment.
AS to the second question. the same
authorities assert that the company's
facilities and the number OF its shop
employees are not to be permanently
reduced. although for a period of per-
haps two years they will be kept down.
Those men who were unfortunate
enough as to lose their positions at
Cheyenne by the suspension Of opera
tons there are to be given preference
in the filling in of other places and
when the company assumes the task of
reestablishing normal conditions. that
is excepting Cheyenne Of course. these
men will be put to work wherever pos
sible. Some Of them may be idle but
a few days or weeks at most. while
others may have to wait months be-
fore they are again in the service of
the company. But 1t is the purpose of
the company to inevitably re-employ
as many OF them as its affairs will war
rant. 1t Is more than probable hat no
material reinforcement OF the working
capacity Of the shops will be made I'M
til the approach of fall When the new
arrangements are adopted Omaha will
have it's shop forces enlarged to a much
greater number. it is understood. than
prior to the strike.

A CONVERTIBLE TRICK.
Poisoned Candy Sent to a Clerk Sat
 urday Afternoon


 Some person or persons attempted to play mean trick upon young lady clerk at Miller & Peck's on Satur- day. On that afternoon about 3:3O o'clock Miss Clara McAlenney of 22 JeweIry street, a clerk at Miller & Peck's, received a nice box of fine chocolates which was delivered by messenger boy. Her first feelings on receiving the box were naturally of keen delight, but these were changed to other feelings 3 short time later when on opening the box she discov- cred some yellow powder scattered about the chocolates in such manner as to avoid detection. Miss Me AIenney became suspicious and would not eat any of the candy. Later it was found. so it was said, that the vel low powder was iodoform. which in large quantities is poison.
 An attempt was made to find out at the Western Union the names of the persons who sent the box of candy, but the only information that could be gained was that it was sent by two young ladies' whose names were un- known. Miss McA1enney is a very popular young lady and has host of friends. There is no idea of what motive prompted the young ladies to send the box of candy. 1t may have been a joke, but if that were so it was a rather risky joke.

 Plan for It's Solution.
 San Francisco, June 23.-General A. s. Burt, retired, who has recently ar rived from the Philippines, has plan for the solution of the Philippine problem. He believes he has arrived at a conclusion that will ultimately be accepted by the administration and the country at large as the only solu- tion.
 'sTurn them over to the Japanese" said the general. sLet them have them on the installment plan for the consideration, say, of S150000,0O0- Our government does not need the money in lump sum. and by making a proposition of that kind we can die tate as to coaling stations and make such reserves as are thought to be best for trade interests. An arrange ment of that kind can be effected that will give the United States as broad road into the markets of the orient as if we retained the islands; besides we will be making strong allies of two nations that will represent our interest on that side of the globe without the necessity of the presence of large army at an enormous cost"

SMALLPOX SPREADING.
New Britain Finds It Has Six New
 Cases to Care For.

Cases to Care For.
 New Britain, June 23.-The commit tee on public safety mad a busy time Saturday night and Sunday, the small pox situation having developed some unpleasant features. It was definite ly decided Saturday that Mrs Warren of Cleveland street and her younger child had smallpox and last night they were removed to the pest house. This makes five cases in this family. Sat urday night Dr Clark was called to see the family of Patrolman Mccarthy at his home on North Stanley street, where there had been a number of suspicious. cases. Patrolman McCarthy and three of his children, 9 years old, ' years old, and an infant, were taken sick several days ago, but the symp- toms of smallpox did not appear until yesterday. Dr Clark diagnosed the cases as similar to the others and the house was promptly quarantined. They have not yet been removed to the isolation hospital. As soon as Chief Rawlings was informed of the decision of the physicians in this case he decided that i'll the interests of the puO1C, tie SltH III " NA1NI lo the police station. the court rooms and common council chamber and where many citizens call daily on business. should be thoroughly fumigated. Dr Swasey was notified and as he could not procure sufficient quantity of formaldehyde in this city he secured two assistants and the necessary ap- paratus from the Hartford hospital and fumigated the whole building
 Another suspicious case was report ed to the special committee Saturday in the NVelch family on Brook street, where a woman was said to be i'll.
