CURBA'S FUTURE.
MIR. Austin Fears Unsuitable Desire
for Revolution.

Tor REVOLUTION.
H. A. Austin is the author of a
suggestive article on "Cuba's Fu-
ture" in The North American Review.
The fact that the Cubans appear to
be imbued with an Unsuitable desire
for revolution is likely, in Mr.. Aus
tins Judgment, to render Insecure
any Cuban government of the island.
Should the present republic fail,
something more than repacitication
will result from the American inter-
ference. Annexation to the United
States does not seem altogether prob
able for the present, and Mr.. Austin
concludes that the most logical and
probably the easiest solution of the
question would be the establishment
Of protectorate. He says:
"These revolutions will undoubted-
ly continue to recur, under republic.
so long as the present conditions eX-
list, for the simple reason that it is
impossible to create a sufficient num-
ber of political offices to satisfy the
ambitions of all the political leaders
or so called generals The makeup of
the Cuban is different from that OF
the American citizen. In this coun-
try, if man is removed from office
under a change of administration or
for other political reasons, he usually
takes it as matter of course, or If
he is defeated at the polls, he either
smothers his feelings or lays plans for
a future battle of the ballots. With
the Cuban it is different. If he is
removed from Office or loses a victory
at the polls, he immediately begins
to 'agitate'-not by that sort OF peace
full agitation which is intended to in
struct the people in the principles OF
the political party or faction to which
he belongs, but by that agitation
which smacks of personal revenge,
which appeals particularly to tue law
less element, and brings together in
a protesting body the class of citizens
who are ever ready to take up arms
against the existing government, or
to use alleged political grievances as
a pretext for committing robberies
and other depredations."

THREE THIEVES HELD HERE
Pickpockets Will Be Prosecuted in
Omaha Instead of Fremont.
ANOTHER VICTIM HAS SHOWN UP
Tourist TO England f. Robbed of His
strong BOX on the Train,
So He Reports to the
Police.

The three pickpokets arrested at the Union
station Thursday night on
wired from Fremont will not be turned over
to the Fremont authorities, but will be
held here and prosecuted on a larceny
charge. Since their arrest 1t has been
learned that they robbed John Roberts, a
tourist on his way to England, Just as the
Union Pacific train on which they were
riding pulled into the station at Omaha
When the three men got Off the train
they were arrested by Detectives Heitfelt,
Donahue, Mitchell and Sullivan. Moore,
one Of the thieves, threw away a pocket
book just as the officers were about to
arrest him. This was picked up and found
to contain $3.50. The police suspected then
that 1t had been stolen from some mar on
the train.
Later in the night word was received by
the police from Boone, Ia, to the effect
that John Roberts had his pocketbook
stolen on the Union Pacific train that
brought the ~pickpockets into Omaha. Rob
erts arrived in Omaha this morning and
identified the wallet as his property.
The three men-John O'Day of Kansas
City, George Wheeler of Denver and James
Moore of Kansas City-were a%rraigned in
police court and their preliminary hearing
set for next week. Their bond Ras placed
at 1850 apiece.
Wallet stolen on Train.
Roberts says his wallet was stolen on the
train by Moore. The pickpocket sat next
to him from Fremont here. A short time
before the train pulled into Omaha Moore
bought some plums from the newsboy and
started to eat them. He let several Of
them fall to the floor OF the car at the
feet OF Roberts and then made a great com
motion in gathering them up. Roberts was
forced to stand up, and while he was do
ing hat Moore, with the aid OF his pal.
Wheeler, managed to get his wallet.
The trio OF pickpockets have been plying
their trade at Fremont and other towns
along the line with two other fellows. The
Fremont officers arrested two of the gang
and ave them in jail there.
The captives, after leaving Fremont, are
supposed to have gone to North Platte and
then worked back east on the Union Pacific
trains to omaha.
Wheeler and O'Day were held here In
brought against them and they were al
lowed to get out of town.
Assistant Superintendent Adams of the
Union Pacific called at the station and
Identified Moore as the man who stole his
wallet containing $50, on the night OF July
4, at CORTLAND beach.
All three OF the pickpockets are known TO
the police and have been arrested here
several times.

.FLYNN'S MEN PLAY SLEUTH
Street Commissioner Has Detectives
Watching Dumping Of Dirt.
F. c. JACKSON CAUSES ACTION
subeontractor of E~xcavntinE work
Refuse 20 obey Orders, lays
official and ArreatinE Him
Does No Good,

Several men in the employ Of the street
commissioners department have been
given detective work and instructed TO fol-
low dump wagons with earth from the
house and Brandeis excavations and
sec to It that earth is not dumped on any
of the city streets.
This action has been taken because OF
much trouble had with +. C.. Jackson. sub
contractor on the e~xcavating work, who,
the street commissioner said, refuses to
pay any attention to his orders and per-
sists In dumping earth wherever he pleases
and driving over whatever streets he
pleases. He has been frequently arrested,
but this has done no good, declares Street
Commissioner Flynn.
The first trouble had with Jackson was
in June, when he caused a quantity Of
earth to be dumped on Tenth street, be-
tween Davenport and Cass streets. City
Engineer Craig took up this violation per-
sonally and compelled the contractor to
remove all the earth dumped. Since then
he has dumped earth on Twenty-eighth
avenue, between Fsrnsm and Dodge
streets, and on Twenty-sixth street, be-
tween Farnam and Chicago streets. No
pCALllls nave bCtH given any tNNdNdNihh
contractor to dump earth on the streets,
and Thursday afternoon Sergeant Cook ar
rested two Of Jackson's drivers on Twen-
ty-sixth street.

81 have received no complaints about

sioner Flynn, but 1 wish that residents
of the city would report to this department
II earth is being dumped on any street or
II dump wagons are being driven over
streets not specified in the permits we
give. The empty dump wagons are to re-
turn to the excavations over the same
streets that are traversed when loaded"
Excavating contractors are compelled to
deposit with the street commissioner GER.
titled checks Of an amount equal to 2 cents
per cubic yard for all earth to be removed
This is to guarantee cleaning streets over
which the dump wagons are driven. Jack.
son has refused to clean any streets, said
the street commissioner, and Friday nigh
he put his crews at work on the street
being used by Jackson and did cleaning
work to the extent Of $25 in cost.

TO DISSOLVE OR NOT TO DO
IT Is THE QUESTION NOW
Judge GrOsscup VIII Decide IN Ih-
junction Against Commerce Com
mfasfon on Rates.


A decision important to Omaha and other
Missouri river jobbers will soon be handed
down in Chicago by Judge Grosscup OF the
federal court. The decision will be whether
TO make permanent or TO dissolve the in
junction granted the railroads against the
order Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission whereby rates on dry goods and
other high class freight were reduced Is
cents the 100 pounds on shipments from
New York.
The jobbers assert that the rate from
New York to Omaha or Kansas City ought
20 be less than the rate from New York
to the Mississippi river plus the Mis-
sissippi TO Omaha rate. In other words
the jobbers contend for the disappearance
OF the Mississippi river as a bssi - point
on shipments here from the seaboard.
The general point involved is the same
as In the Spokane rate case" and I'm the

Citizens of South Omaha, Florence, Ben

South Omaha would probably be adverse
to consolidation for fear that such a move
would lose to that city its separate police
force and station, its public library, the
subtreasury and several other institutions.
