Mayor Dahlman left Lincoln before the

to see the new governor vested with the
mantle of authority. When he left at
four o'clock in the afternoon Colonel Fan

tearing his shirt because his uniform was
lost. The expensive garb was packed in a
trunk and billed for Lincoln, but it was
lost somewhere enroute and the combined
efforts OF the colonel and his spies could
not locate It, The express offices were
ransacked and the wires between the
capital city and Omaha were kept hot in
an EFFORT to find the uniform, but up to
the hour of the mayors departure it was
still a missing quantity.

testify AGAINST BOJNOR|CH
State Has Had Some Exasperating
Experiences in the Past, and
VIII Take no More Chances.

All Of the witnesses in the Bojnov-
ich murder case in which the defendent
was bound over to the Superior court
on the charge of being an accessory in
the murder of Nick Rebraca will be
put under bond today TO hold them so
that they will be forced to testify
against their countrymen. The state
will have at least six witnesses and it
is doubtful if any of them would re-
main in the city by the time the case
came to trial
The report came to the police yester-
day in fact that Mrs. Pushca and her
boarders who were involved in the
case were already packing their goods
and were about to leave the city. This
means that within twentyfour hours
the state would have been unable to
prove up their case because of the lack
Of witnesses.
If these witnesses are unable to fur
nish the necessary bond all of them
will be forced to remain in the police
station until the case comes to trial
In the past in number of these cases
1t has been the custom of the friends
of the foreigners in cases to induce the
witnesses to leave the city and it is
impossible to hold them unless they are
put under bond.

where he had gone to last week in
company with Chicago officials in order
to approach the war department for
relief against the dumpings of the
dredgings from the Chicago river by

successful. not so much for the imme-
date results that will accrue from it
but for the effect that our visit will

in sympathy with US. Secretary Dick
inson was formerly attorney general
for the Illinois Central, and was sta
toned at Chicago. and as such he is
acquainted with the situation. and the
fact chat he was so ready to give us
hearing, although he could not be there
in person, leads me to believe that he,
too, is in sympathy with US
Interests Senator ShiveIy.
TT was my good fortune to have
along Senator Shively, in which
could lay the whole situation before
him, and in him we win have another
ardent supporter. While we could not
meet Senator Beveridge, we know that
he is all right, as is also Congressman
Crumpacker. Mr. Crumpacker was not

interested in the problem, and his sec
