RAILROAD OFFICIALS PLAN A
RADICAL CHANGE IN
SIGNALING.

Chicago, March 23.-The Ameri-
can Railway Engineering and Main
tenance of Way Association at a
meeting here today unanimously
adopted committee report recon-
mending changes in the present meth
DDS of railway signaling. The chan
ges suggested. IL is said, will add
materially to the safety OF train
operation.
The report as adopted recommends
that the style OF signal semaphore
now i'm use be changed so that the
signals will be given in the right
hand upper quadrant OF the circle in
stead OF the lower right-hand quad
rant. The stop signal remains tho
same as heretofore. the arm OF the
semaphore being horizontal But
when the arm is inclined upward 45
degrees it will mean proceed with
caution instead OF an arm declined
the same number OF degrees.
The arm inclined upward at an
angle Of 90 degrees will mean pro.
ceed. instead OF an arm declined
downward of about the same angle
The association also recommends
change I'm the old plan OF red light
for stop, yellop or green light for
caution and white light for proceed.
The association recommends the yell
low light for the night signal for
caution and green light as the
night indication for clear. thus doing
away with the white light entirely

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE. FRIDAY MARCH 49, 1907
SOUTH OMAHA POLICE BOARD
New Commission Of Three Members IL
Appointed by Governor Sheldon.
THEIR AUTHORITY BEGINS At ONCE
Governor signs Bill Increasing the
Monthly Salaries of the Captains
of Police Force in
Omaha.
(From a stan Correspondent.)


LINCOLN March 14.-(Special Telegram.)
South Omaha has a new police board. by
appointment Of Governor Sheldon, made up
Of Wesley p. Adkins, A. II. Murdoch and
W. c. Lambert The new board, consisting
Of three members, will succeed the old
board, consisting Of four members, which
has been ousted by the enactment of
law fathered by Gibson and signed by the
governor. The bill provides for immediate
appointment and the governor therefore
commissioned the new members at once
in order to prevent a hiatus in the police
government Of the Magic City. The bill
prohibits more than two of the members
being chosen from the same political party
and as a consequence Adkins and Murdoch
go in as republicans and Lambert as a
democrat. Adkins is in the livery business
and formerly served in the city council,
having also been the unsuccessful repub-
lican nominee for mayor in the last city
election. Murdock's last position was that
of deputy county attorney under Judge
Slabaugh, and Lambert was once city at
torney in South Omaha. The bill makes
the mayor an ex-officio member ana pre-
siding officer of the board, but without any
vote or participation in the duties.
/ Governor Sheldon also signed the bill
| increasing the salaries of the captains Of
/ the Omaha police department to IS a
| month. This will give them an increase Of
! SIS, as they are now said to be getting
$40. The bill fixes SIPS month as a
minimum and leaves it to the police board,
should It so desire and funds permit in the
| future to increase the pay further up to a
maximum of $50 month.

CITY MERCHANTS ALARMED
LEGISLATORS Plan of Taxing Ore
Taken Serious ly.

Some people at least know that the
legislatures plan of taxing ore is be-
ing taken seriously by the people of
Ely. A travelling salesman of a well
known house put in his appearance
one day last week and got a water
haul" where he had been accustomed
to receiving neat little order. He
was surprised to learn how great was
feeling here on the tax question. and
that Ely merchants were curtailing
their orders and reducing their stock
in anticipation of the "hari times"
the new measure will produce if it is
enacted into law.
He Immediately laid the matter be-
fore his house, and urged that they
"get busy" and protest against any
change that so seriously interferes
with so lucretiye a trade as whole
salers now have with the Range
towns. We hope that wholesale
houses of Twin Cities and of the
southern part of the state in general
will see that our troubles are real and
our protestations genuine.
