Retrenchment has now be-
come the watchword Oh the
Union Pacific as the result Of
instructions from Mr.. Hartman
AMI the Other directors of the
road. In accordance with these
instructions a meeting of sup
erintendents was held at the
Union Pacific headquarters this
wee',s and a plan of retrench-
melt mapped out and agree d
u Don.
Superintendent Deuel., Super
inteaient of Transportation
Buckingham, Superintendent
of Motive Power M Keen and
other OH Gals Of IT,, roal left
last evening for a trip over the
road to put into effect the econ
omies determined upon at this
meeting. The lopping-off pro
cess will extend all along the
road and will result IN the dis
clarge Of MIN srous employees.
This process will apply to the
branches as We'll as to the main
line. A few weeks ago it was
said that While retrenchments
Were likely they would not be
any more extensive than usual
at this season Of the year. But
the owners of the road, who
have been retrenching on the
other lines in which they are
|intercsted,I both in the east and
west, decided upon more radi-
cal reductions.
One of the first notable
changes will be the discontinue
ance next Sunday of passenger
trains Nos. 8 and 10, which are
run as locals between Omaha
and North Platte. The service
furnished by these trains will
now be supplied by attaching
coaches to the fast mail trains
1O1 and lO2. This will result
in a large saving to the COM
pany. 1t will do away with
three passenger crews out of
this terminal, three conductors
and six brakemen. The con-
ductors now receive from $125
to $40 a month and the brake
men from sos to $75.
The trip of the superinten-
dents over the line will help to
determine upon other changes,
which can be made so as to re-
duce expenses without seriously
impairing the efficiency of the
road.
President Burt and Mr.. Lo-

perhaps has something to do
with the new policy of retrench.

 'Fter the singing of hymns and an in- 'htion by Dr. Walden, Dr. Rice was Rented by MT. Bradford Hardie, Presi- .k of the Society.
 -. Rice is a picturesque figure. lie kesses a magnificent physique and d Ihing personality. His appearance is fdsome. He is more than six feet tall
 h broad shoulders. He has a robust { well modulated voice and his natural lures are effective. His youthful look \ his classical features make him an Aactive speaker.

 Rice said that nothing appealed to # noble nature so strongly as a mag Kent demand and the magnificent de- skd for work in foreign missions was # that stirred the soul. He read the lmand of Jesus Christ to His disciples

J. W. DAVIDSON TALKS
SAYS NO OFFER HAS BEEN MADE HIM.
He is For wellman for Chairman Brother of Referee Aldrich
 Suggests Foraker or Her .8l rick for President.

Birmingham, Nov. 13.-(Special.1-J. W. Davidson, who was chairman of the con vention which was held by the Republi- cans of Alabama last year and from which the present organization sprung, when seen this morning In reference to the statement made yesterday that the
 Black and Tans," or administration fol- lowers in this State. would tender to him the chairmanship of the State Republican Executive Committee, provided he would declare in favor of President Roosevelt
 for the Presidential nomination. today gave out the following interview:
 T did not know anything about the story until my attention was called to 1t by others. am not a candidate for chairman of theI State Committee and do not want to be chairman. If Mir. We'll man Is a candidate, will loyalty sup
 port him for chairman. I will continue to stand by the Republican party as have always done and my position will
 not be misunderstood by any Republican | in this State who knows me or by my Republicans friends elsewhere"
 Mr. Davidson would make no further l comments, but prominent Republicans
 here assert that statement to the effect that the chairmanship would be offered
 to lily white provided that man would
 declare in favor of President Roosevelt
 was some sign of weakness.
 There Is much discussion of the situa-
 tion and word is now being anxiously
 looked for to the effect that Senator Han
 na of Ohio was in the race for the Presi-
 dential nomination at the hands of the Republican national convention. James Carter Cook. who was chairman of the campaign committee of the Republican party in the last State election, Is out in a statement that he will never recede from his position as a lily white, even ! should he be only one left there. There will be no assertions at all from the lily
 white branch. according to the talk now
 being indulged in. Some national signi- flcance Is placed on the discussion going on in Republican ranks in this State, so 1t is stated, and the candidate receiving
 the most boosting in Alabama will reap good throughout the United States
 Hon. T. H. Aldrich Is back from a trip to Chicago and states that while away he
 heard many Republicans express the be-
 lief that Governor Herrick or Senator
 Foraker of Ohio. would be the candidate successful in the next Republican national convention from the Presidential nomi- nation. MT. Aldrich is a brother of W.
 F. Aldrich, one of the referees. but he is not aligned with the black and tan ele- ment of the party.
