DEPOT JAMMED WITH MAIL
Union Station Trains Bring in Large
Volumes of BeIRted
Pouches.

AS a result Of crippled railroad service
due to the floods, trains entering Omaha
are heavily laden with mail that has been
tied up In various places and on various
lines Scarcely a train arrives that does
not have an extra car or two of belated
mail and some are carrying extra baggage
cars. The Union Pacific fast mail, an ex-
elusive mail train, came in and went out
yesterday with its four cars of mail and
two baggage cars filled TO the doors
This mail has come, most of IT, from Kan
sas City territory. mail that under normal
conditions never passes through Omaha.
For instance there was q huge pile of
Kansas City daily papers that were being
sent into Kansas, just over the line from
the stricken city. These papers evidently
left Kansas City some days ago. Besides
the papers there were several large trucks
laden with Kansas City mail matter OF the
first class.
In order TO handle this extra volume of
mail and baggage it has been necessary for
the Union depot authorities to enlist the
services Of twenty extra men from the
freight houses at Council Bluffs. and even
at that every fellow is given all he wants 10
do The depot where mail is handled GER
tainly is a busy place now.

Packers Advance Prices, But So Far Re-

SUPPLY OF LIVE STOCK is INADEQUATE
Consumers VIII Have to Pay in Case
whOIesaIers Add Any More

The foods and consequent Generalization
OF railway service throughout the middle
west has caused meat prices to incline
inward With the Kansas City packing
houses idle greater demands have been
thrown on the plants in Omaha and other
cities and the live stock arriving both
here and at other points has been far short
of adequate AS yet there has been no ad-
vance in meat so far as the consumer Is
concerned, but very little more increase
by the packers and the public will have TO
nav. II all depends on bow soon the rail
lines can get in normal condition again.
Dressed beef has gone up about one-half
cent a pound, fresh pork has been pushed
ahead / cent a pound, while mutton was
already so high that no advance was made.
A representative OF Cudahys said yes

what we needed yesterday, and there was
also a big deficiency in hogs. Live stock

over the country II II reaches US the
stringency will be relieved, but a con-
tinuation of the present conditions means
a marked advance in the price OF meat De-
cause of the shortage"
AT Armour's the feeling was conservd-
| lively inclined THE demands are over
taxing our ability TO MI them" said Gen
eral Manager Howe, but we are doing The
best we can 10 meet them and TO hold the
meat market steady. So far the advances
have been no more than those covered by
ordinary fluctuations Hogs have advanced
/ 40 cents a hundred this week and this has
resulted in an increase Of a cent pound

hams has remained stationary. Dressed

Tho Play "Ben Hur."

Usually one approaches a play
made on really powerful novel with
misgivings, but with ben Hur" this
Is different and herein lies one Of its
greatest charms. In this wonderful
production, when they essay to show
you the inside of a galley with a
Prince Of Hur at one of the oars, 1t
is stage picture that suggests the
very environment and takes on the
semblance Of reality. The same
goes with all the other pictures, from
the allegorical one in the prologue,
showing the Wise Men discovering
the Star of Bethlehem; and onward
through those stirring scenes of Je.
rusalem, preceding Hur's arrest to
the galley, the rescue and the Grove
of Daphne, which is a picture of
Oriental splendor and pleasure com.
bined, as beautiful as has been set
for the gaze Of theater-goers in many
day. Then comes the great chariot
race, the acme Of stage mechanism
and the great scenic triumph of the
piece. 1t goes off with a whirl and
picturing the Circus at Antioch, with
the struggle between Messiah and
ben Hur" that fires the interest OF
the spectator to the highest pitch.

Central Americans,

Managua, Nov. 24.-President Mar.
roquin of the republic OF Colombia has
sent circular to President Zelaya Of
Nicaragua, asking for his moral sup
port in dealing with the present situa-
ton on the isthmus. President Zelaya
has telegraphed to the presidents Of
the Central American countries pro-
posing to them that they combine
with him in an answer to MarroQuin.
The idea has been accepted by the
various executives, but it has not yet
been decided what form the combined
answer shall take. President Zelaya
was recently Marroquin's bitterest
enemy, openly aiding the Colombian
liberals in their efforts to overthrow
MarroQuin during the last revolution.

the forthcoming presentation OF klaw

Ben Hur" at the Spokane Thsater,
Spokane, December IA and 18th, with
special matinee on Tuesday after
noon.
The last scene Of the great series
of pictures is one that will live in the
history Of the American drama as
the best scene of the kind over shown
on the American stage. 1t shows the
reunion of the mother, daughter and
son, after their years Of suffering, the
great white light from Mount Olivet,
which sigaifled their healing at the
hand Of the Master. The final grand
hosannahs of a large chorus brings
the curtain down upon scene which
has in it something that should live
for longer period than most dra-
matte climaxes. There is woe, despair
and the accumulated suherings OF
three wearied souls all brought out
in this final scene, until. in the pres
ence of the Light, relief comes and,
on its wings, the ecstatic Joy that the
reunion brings, sending q thrill
through the house that has not had its
like in many day.

Prominent Superintendent Killed

Prominent Superintendent Killed.
Charles Mccormick. superintendent
of the indicator mine, at Cripple
Creek, Colo, and Melvin H. Beck, q
miner, were killed recently by an ex-
plosion in the sixth level Of the Vindi.
Gator mine. The explosion occurred
while Superintendent Mccormick and
Miner Beck were in the cage. They
were the only passengers. Just as the
cage reached the sixth level the ex-
plosion occurred. 1t wrecked the lev
ell. cage and shaft at that point and
instantly killed both men. The explo-
sion was heard at the surface. and
many persons thought it was an earth
quake.
1t is believed no others were killed
or injured. 1t is positively asserted by
officers of the Vindicator Mining COM
pany that the explosion was caused by
an Internal machine. This statement
was made after a thorough examina-
ton had been made at the shaft The
Internal machine, containing many
pounds Of dynamite. was placed in the
sixth level, which is part Of the aban-
doned works of the mine, within few
inches of the shaft. Then loaded re-
volver was fixed in the shaft with its
muzzle pointing directly toward the
Internal machine.
To the trigger of the revolver was
attached a string, which was thrown
across the shaft in such a manner that
when the cage came down and encoun-
tered the string the revolver would ex-
plode. the bullet striking the Internal
machine.
Pieces of this revolver have been re-
covered from the bottom of the shaft,
but not a vestige of the Internal ma
chine can be found.
Major Major and detail of soldiers
were dispatched from Camp Goldheld
to the mine, and took charge Of the
property.
No one is allowed to approach the
mine and no one Is permitted to leave.
Superintendent Mccormick was one Of
the best known mining men in the
Cripple Creek district.
After receiving news Of the explo-
sion, Governor Peabody ordered the
troops in Cripple Creek. who were to
proceed to Telluride. to remain in
Cripple Creek. The force now there
numbers nearly 400 men.
The district executive committee of
the Western Federation Of Miners
characterizes the explosion as a ia
mentable accident" regretted by all,
and adds: "But prejudiced individu-
ais, who rarely know anything of what
they talk, have already passed judg-
ment and denounce 1t as cold blood.

ever, that these people are not above
making capital out Of any public mis-
fortune"
