Republic. has long been a prominent
figure in French politics. He retires
from the presidency of the Senate to
enter the Elysee According to the
French press, he is a man of equal
popularity in the Senate, in the Cham

public. He began his career as an adj
vocate, we are told, and became deputy
in his twentyffth year. He has been
seven times Minister. He held the
portfolio of the Interior in 1882 1888.

1885 and 1SS9-90: and was Minister
of Justice in 1S90-92 When Loubet
was elected President of the Republic
in 1899. Fallieres succeeded him as
President of the Senate. He presided
in the senatorial high court of justice
when Deroulede and Guerfn We're tried

Perhaps his most striking quality is
his unfaiIing affability and kindness.
The journals enter pretty closely into
the more intimate relations of the new
Presidents life. Thus. we learn. he
made a small fortune, which, joined to
the dowry of his wife, assures him a
modest independence. His stature like
that of his predecessor, is somewhat
low, but he impresses the crowd by
his faciIe eloquence. He outwardly
conforms to the ideal President de-
scribed in the Temps (Paris). and thus
he is almost the counterpart of Mr..

the manifesto from the clefts OF many

conclude that the corruption the in

Big Consumers at Three

r. c. Howe manger Of Armour and
company, announces that in a few days
the ice plant OF that company at South
Omaha will be put in operation and that
he has already notified large consumers in
Omaha such as butchers and saloons, that
ne will have a daily surplus of about fifA
tons, which he will sell in large lots at
50 50 per ton.
This action will have the effect of re-
leasing a like quantity of ice now held by
local dealers and may have a marked eff
feet upon the retail market, taking away
from the Ice trust, their last excuse for
exacting prohibtive prices for their Ice.
Ice consumers are struck with the fact
that conditions have failed to bear out the
declaration of the Ice trust magnates at
the beginning of the season when, to
palliate their offense of raising the price
almost to prohibltive figures. they an
nounced their supply was so small 1t would
become exhausted before the season was
over As a matter of fact statements
have got into circulation purporting to come
from Ice trust sources to the effect that the
ice combine has ample stores still on hand
with no danger of running out-and In
cidentally 1t has the vast surplus wrung
from the people of Omaha by those ex-
tortionate prices.
The recent slump in temperature has had
decided effect on the output OF Ice

which figured a continuation of the warm

Too Much Liquid JOY Interferes with
Plans of Mrs. Julia
Kerr.

The plans fondly made by Mrs. Julia
Kerr, 724 South Nineteenth street, to re-
turn to the "oud sod to spend the rest OF
her years, now that her husband is dead,
and she is all alone in the world, were in
terrupted Tuesday evening, when the
woman was removed from the Union depot,
where she was about to take a train for
New York and conveyed to the city jail
by the police, there to stay over night In
the matrons department II is believed
she will have recovered sufficiently by day
light from the effects OF the portion of the
contents of a quart wine bottle found
empty beside her at the depot, which she
had imbibed, to resume her journey.
The aged woman--for she is gray and
bent-lost her husband, ]. d. Kerr, In death
some time ago and it was only few days
ago that she paid the last dollar on his lot
in the Holy Sepulcher cemetery. Since his
death she worked in laundry to scratch
up enough money with which to return to
dear old Ireland The proper time to go
came at last and she secured a ticket to
New York and an order for passage to Ire
land With these packed away In her
handbag she bid farewell to the Nineteenth
street home, but had only covered a few
blocks of the distance between Omaha, L.
s. A. and Cork, Ireland, when the police
were asked to take her in charge.
Mrs Kerr had taken with her bottle OF
wine and the employees at the Union
depot. where she sat waiting for her train

CRIME is ON THE DECREASE
tributed 10 Severe Penalties
Last Spring.

Judge Sutton of the criminal branch of
the district court is we'll pleased with the
present condition of the criminal docket,
the number of serious cases being unusu-
ally small Within the next two or three
days he will draw two jury panels of l2O
each to serve the first six weeks of tho
October term of court. While the jail is
well filled a smaller proportion than usual
of the prisoners are held for trial in dis
trct court
The coming term of court promises to
be free from the sensational trials that
drew crowds to the court house during the
last two terms. So far there are only two
murder cases. that of Frank Hamilton,
charged with killing Al McVittie on the
night OF the city election, and a case COM
ing from a grading camp near Elkhorn.
The number OF 'holdup' cases is small and
the remainder consist mostly Of burglary
offenses.
Police officials declare the decrease in
crime is due in great measure to the
vigorous treatment OF prisoners in district
court last spring Judge Sutton doled out
a number of long sentences TO holdup men
and robbers and this has had a tendency
to discourage that kind of work.
