ALL WAITS ON JARVIS HUNT
Union Pacific Headquarters Building
Starts at Architects Word.
WORK MAY BEGIN THIS MONTH
Talk of Rushing Headquarters Re-
wives Agitation for Enlargement
of Union Station, Retarded
by Small Lines.

Union Pacific officials are awaiting the
return to Omaha of Jarvis Hunt, the Chi
cago architect who is to put up the new
headquarters building at Fifteenth and
Dodge STREETS. With the prospect of mod
crate weather for February 1t is believed
preliminary work may begin within two
weeks.
"The architect has charge of the con-
struction work." said A. L. Mohler, vice
president of the Union Pacific. The job
will be started at his direction, most likely
this month"
Preliminary work on the new building
would mean the razing Of the old Labor
Temple at Fifteenth and Dodge streets
and the low buildings adjoining 1t on
Dodge street. This work will be instituted
at a signal from Mr.. Hunt.
The completion Of plans to build the
headquarters revived the talk concerning
Improvements in Union station. The re-
turn from Chicago of w L. Park, general
superintendent of the Union Pacific rail-
road, who has the matter in charge, is
looked upon by representatives of other
roads as a matter TO give Impetus to the
progress of the work.

THREE CLAIM BANDIT BOUNTY
Former Policeman, Storekeeper and
School Boy Into Contest.
EACH ASKS THE WHOLE REWARD
Want IL All, but Suggest in Petit
tiOns that Even a Pro Rata
Slice Would BE Very
Acceptable.

Three additional petitions in intervenor
for a pro rata distribution Of the reward
offered by the Union Pacific Railroad COM
pany for the arrest and conviction of the
Overland Limited mail robbers have been
filed in the United States circuit court.
Those filing for a portion Of the reward
Friday morning were all South Omaha par
ties. They are William McCraith, a former
police officer, who claims that he assisted
in the apprehension and arrest of Woods,
Torgenson and Grigware near the Brown
Park school house, and he further claims
that 1t was he who gave the first Informal
ton that led to the arrest of the men, and
that mis- tetimony as a witness was
vital in securing the conviction of the ac-
caused men. John Franek, a storekeeper Of
South Omaha, files a similar claim through
the alleged fact that the first notification
Of the robbers being seen prowling about
the Brown Park school house was given
him by the boys who first discovered the

Will Go for
Old Job First
Says He Will Oppose Dahlman for
Governor and is Only Possible
Candidate for Senate.

Governor Sha!lenberger win enter the
ring with Mayor Dahlman for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor. The gov
ernor stopped for a few hours Friday
morning at the Paxton hotel en- route to
Lincoln from Valley, where he addressed
the farmers institute Thursday night.
1T is my present intention to enter the
gubernatoria' campaign" said the gov
ernor. The mayor slid in ahead of me in
filing his papers. but L shall follow suit
shortly"
Asked about his aspirations for the
United States senate, the governor said:
"Of course it's possible l may seek a
seat at Washington, but ] have no lnten-
ton of entering that race now. I'm after
another term as governor OF Nebraska;
anyway, that's my present plan.
There will be plenty OF candidates for
that position without me getting into the
race"
Congressman Hitchcock was in confer
ence with the governor Thursday.

that it was on this information that ne no.
titled the South Omaha police, who subse-
quently arrested Woods, Torgenson aud
Grigware. Alfred Larson, a minor,
through his next friend, Mary Larsop. lays
claim to a portion of the reward because
of his discovery and recovery of some Of
the articles of the plant of the robbers near
the Brown Park school, and that he was
also one of the boys on watch the night
of the arrest of the three men, and that
1t was on his Information that the three
were later arrested.
Each Wants 1t All.
Each of the three petit Nuers lays claim
to the whole 81, 600 reward offered, but
expresses a willingness to be satisfied with
a pro rata share of that sum.
None of the South Omaha police officers,
who were chiefly instrumental in the ar
rest of Woods, Torgenson and Grigware,
have yet filed petitions in intervenor
except McCraith, though it is understood
that they will file such petitions within a
day or two.
Other petitions in intervenor will be filed
Saturday from the mattresses and landlady
in the restaurants where the five con-
victed men were known to have eaten sew
eral times prior to the robbery and the day
following the robbery.
The sudden influx of these suits for a
portion Of the reward for the apprehension
and conviction of the mail robbers is based
upon the probability that no application
for a hearing of the cases may be made
by the defendants attorneys.
The attorneys for the convicted mel
have not yet given up the intention to fil'
a motion for a new hearing, providing thu
friends Of the prisoners put up a sufficien
fund to carry the case up. These friend.
have made frequent promises, but tn,
funds ave not yet materialized, and moth
ing will be done in the matter until such
funds are forthcoming.

OFFICIALS FOR HALF HOLIDAY
mester Opposed TO Opening City
Hall saturday Afternoons.

Acting Mayor Burmester is not in favor
of the proposition Of the Federation of
Improvement clubs that the city hall Of
ficcs be kept open until s o'clock on Sat
urday afternoon.
1T is rapidly becoming the rule in this
country that there shall be a half holiday
on Saturday afternoon said Mr.. Bur
mester. We do not have as many holidays
as they do In the older countries, and /
viii venture to say that some of the men
responsible for the passage of that resolu-
ton insist on having Saturday afternoon
TO themselves. As l view IL, there would
rot be enough call for the services of the
city employees, for real business, on Sat
urday afternoon to make it worth while to
keep tho offices open"
Mayor Dahlman, who is out of the city,
has heretofore given his opinion that the
present arrangement Is best, and he viii
not, say his friends, take any steps to
upset H.

him.
Mr.. Miller is backed by abundant capital
and is regarded as one Of the best corn
men in the west. as well as one Of the
pioneers in the manufacture of corn prod
ucts. Should he decide to locate in Omaha
his plant will be doubled from the size
Of the destroyed Beatrice plant.
He visited several localities in Omaha
to look at proposed sites, accompanied by
a committee of the Commercial club.

I'D S, Miller of Beatrice, proprietor of the

The Beatrice Corn Products mills was

~ccssful in the country. Mr.. Miller had
worked up an immense trade and 1t is his
purpose to rehabilitate his establishment
at as early a date as possible.
The matter Of locating the concern in
Omaha has been under the consideration
Of the Commercial club ever since the de-
struetion of the Beatrice plant a few
months go. Mr.. Miller was somewhat
averse to removing from Beatrice, which
is I'm the heart Of the Nebraska corn pro-

NO RAISE NOW, SAYS PARK
General superintendent of Union Pa
cific Returns from Conference
Which Denied Wage Plea.

w. L. Park, general superintendent of the
Union Pacific railroad, has returned to
Omaha after a four weeks conference with
western railroad officials over the demands
Of firemen and engineers for increased
wages.
For the present, at least, none Of the men
employed on the roads running out of
Omaha are to be given increases in wages.
The officials turned down the plea of the
men for advances, but offer a proposition
to- submit the matter to federal officials for
arbitration.
The firemen asked. for an increase
amounting to about 25 per cent and also
wanted the railroads to recognize the right
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
to legislate for engineers who are members
Of the firemen's order. Both pleas were re-
fused.

Expenses in rebuilding the station would
be didided among the eight roads, accord
ing to their percentage in traffic. 1t will
take the affirmative vote Of six lines to
carry out the proposed improvements.
Omaha daily bee., 1910-02-05

This simply means that some of the
smaller roads like the Wabash and Mis-
souri, Pacific are still considering the adj
visibility of paying their share of the $780,
600 wanted to make the Improvements at
the station.
Larger Ones Are Anxious.
Official of the larger ROADS are anxious
to see the work taken up. They point to
the necessity OF having at least two more
tracks in the train sheds in order to re-
lieve the congestion on the seven tracks
there now, which are constantly blocked;
the crowded waiting room, the congestion
in the baggage room and the necessity of a
larger dining room.
Every day there are from 100 to 10 trains
received at or dispatched from Union sta
ton. In many cases through trains are sent
out in two sections.
Traffic through the station is divided
among the eaght roads according to the

Getting Away From Land.

possible TO sail 1000 miles from land
This can be done at several points.
BY leaving San Francisco and sail
ing northumberland into the north
Pacific a spot Is reached where there
h no land. not even an islet, for 1000
miles In any direction. So. too. sail
ing from the southern point Of Kan
ehatka southeastward ships reach a
point equally distant from land of
any kind. the nearest to the north
being the Aleutian islands and to the
south the outlying members Of the
Sandwich group. In the southern
Indian ocean 1t Is possible to sail
1000 miles out from the southern
points Of Australia and New Zealand
and still be as far from any other
hand. and the same may be done In o
westerly direction from Cape Horn
Indeed. from this point much longer
distance might be reached, for the
southern Pacific between the Horn
and New Zealand covers a space OF
50 degrees of longitude and 40 Of lati
tude Of absolutely unbroken sea, max
ing It's central point over 1000 miles

The speed OF the jack rabbit has al
ways been proverbial among western
men. like the speed Of coyote. In a
straightaway race 1t is claimed that
the jack rabbit can distance the coyote,
but he usually falls victim to the
soyote's superior intelligence. The IA
vorite coyote method for catching jack
rabbits is for one Of the animals to
start a jack and attend to the work OF
keeping the victim on the run, while
the other coyote sits down. patiently
awaiting the arrival Of his dinner.
The jack rabbit when he has q free
range will run In circles, and the
coyotes cleverly count on this habit.
Before long the rabbit win arrive at
the place from which he started, and
there coyote No. 2. fresh and ready
for short sprint will swoop down
upon him and then divide the meal
with the coyote that has done the ac-
tual chasing.-New York Press.
