tai MAILS BRING ABOUT IN.
PROVED FACILITIES.

Chicago Feb. 22--One of the results
OF the Burlington's trancontinentall
mails will be facilitated service west
of Omaha. The Burlington's fast mail
west-bound, No. Is, will catch No. at
Omaha Thus the mails west of Oma-
ha will reach their destination several
hours earlier.
The time of No. Is between Chicago
is to be shortened over an hour. 1t
will leave Chicago half an hour ear
Her and run through on faster
schedule. The mail train now leaves
Chicago over four hours after No. /.
1t makes up over two hours Of this
time btween Chicago and Omaha and
the new scheme is to have 1t make up
an hour more. No. / will be slowed
up little until the Union Pacific
transfer Is reached, after which point
Its time will be increased. No. l is a
combination fast mail and passenger
from the Union Pacific transfer on.
The order of the postmaster general
in the mail contest case was given to
the second assistant as follows:
"You are directed to continue the
transeontinental mails via the Bur-
lington, provided that line meets the
proposal of the Rock Island both as
to cost and as to service"
Guy Adams, superintendent OF the
Rock Island mails, returned from
Washington yesterday and said:
I'VE do not blame the postmaster
general for permitting the Burlington
to retain the mails after that COM
pany's offer to meet our service and
the price"

GEORGE w. kITTERMAN FILES
SUIT AGAINST BOARD OF sU.
PERvlsoRs IN FIGHT FOR JAM.
ToRsHIP
SPOILs FOR VICTORs
NOT SPIRIT OF LAW
Asks Stay Of Proceedings Until Hear.
Ing OF Returns Of Writ of Certificate
-sues for Judgment for Damages
Received.
From Wednesdays Daily.


IN suit filed yesterday the
hoard Of supervisors Of Wapello coun,
ty, two members, William Wilson and
r. J. Reinier individually. G. H. Doro-
thy, the newly appointed janitor of the
court house, and Wapello county itself
are made defendants by George w
Kitterman, the. plaintiff, who asks that
the appointment Of Dorothy be an
nulled and he be retained In his pre-
Gent position Of janitpr.
While not the first case filed In this
county under the provisions Of the old
soldiers preference law, this marks
the, first local test of that part of the
law, which provides that old soldiers,
after having been appointed cannot be
removed except when incompetent or
guilty of misconduct.
Such incompetence, according to the
law, mnst be shown after hearing Of
which due notice is given, and at
which sttted charges are made.
IN his petition Mr.. Kitterman, who
has held the position of janitor at the
local court for the last two years,
claims that the board utterly ignored
these provisions of the old soldiers
preference law and appointed a sue.
cessor to him, without preferring
charges against him or giving him a
hearing.
Says Board Disregarded Law.
The petition is a long one, and the
grounds for the action are carefully
gone over. He states that the board
notwithstanding the plaintiffs right,
AS matter of fact and a matter Of
law, and disregarding a formal appli-
cation which he made for reappoint-
ment, and his protests against the ap.
pointment of Dorothy, proposes to act
on the theory that ITO the victors be.
long the spoils" contrary to the spirit
and purpose of the old soldiers pre-
ference law.
Kttterman asks a writ of certiorari,
reviewing the actions of the board in
the matter a stay of proceedings until
the hearing Of the return of the writ
and finally that the action of the board
be annulled and corrected by pre-.
scribing that the board retain the
plaintiff as the janitor. Also he asks
that a Judgment be entered against
Wapello county and William Wilson
and T. j. Reinier, members of the
board, for the damages sustained by
the plaintiff incluulng the attorneys
fees and costs of the present action.
Asks Mandamus and Injunction,
The petition also asks that upon the
hearing of this action q writ of man.
damns be issued, compelling the board
to appoint and retain Kitterman as
janitor of the court house as long as
he Ia mentally, physically and morally
fitted to discharge the duties of the
position and writ Of injunction pre-.
venting the board from appointing any
other person than the plaintiff to the
ONCE.
The petition states that A. ]. Gard.
ner, member Of the board, supported
Mr.. Kitterman for the position and is
made a defendant only pro forma
