G. A. Anderson
is Killed by a
Switch Engine
Clears Yards Of Wreck and Gives
High Ball When Locomotive
Strikes Him.

Let her CO." shouted G. A. Anderson,
superintendent OF the Missouri Pacific
yards, as he gave the engineer Of az Wreck
ing engine the high balr' to steam ahead.
The superintendent stepped aside into the
path of a passing switch engine receiving
a blow, which caused his death a few
hours later.
Mr.. Anderson was struck by the switch
engine just after clearing a trivial yard
wreck. He was thrown high in the air.
His right foo was severed and both legs
were broken. lie was also injured in
~ternally.
DR.. w. II. Ramsey, company physician,
was called and had the injured man re-
moved to st. Joseph's hospital. The ac-
cident happened at 9 o'clock and four
hours later, Mr.. Anderson was dead. There
was no hope TO- his recovery at any time.
Mr.. Andrson's home Is at 1909 Pinkney
street. He leaves a widow, Mrs. Hanna
Anderson and six children, Emma. Esther,
Oscar, Eugene and two married daughters,
Mrs. j. w. Fisher Of Fremont, Neb., and
Mrs. Charles E. steen OF Kansas City.
Mr.. Anderson has been with the Missouri
Pacific for about three months. He was
with the Northwestern for twenty years
and formerly lived at ~Irvington.

IMPROVEMENT OF DEPOT is
DELAYED BECAUSE OF COST
Of Five Thousand Doll
lars for IN work.

The fate Of the proposed improvements
in Union station hangs In the balance. 1t
is possible the enlargement of the depot
will not take place for many months.
The money question-involving an ex-
penditure of $500. OoO-is causing some OF
the railroads that use that station to hest
tate in taking the plunge. Several Of them
already have answered the Union Pacific
officials, asking for more time In which
to consider the plans and two of them
already have vetoed the proposition,
Before the matter is adjusted 1t will
have to be considered at a meeting of gen.
eral superintendent, / guess" said an Of
fetal OF the Union Pacific. fAt any rate,
the plan will be halted for several months,
or until we can get representatives Of
other roads together to thresh out the mat
ter.
Some of the roads oppose such a big
expenditure of money, 1t Is a large sum at
one time, but the station must be enlarged
sooner or later. There is no argument
against this. 1t is almost an impossible
ity now to handle the trains and passen-
gers at the del OF, for there is continual
congestion and each year the trouble is
aggravated by the increase in passenger
traffic.
, Seven of the railroads that have their
terminals in the station nave filed their
answers with w. L. Park, general superin-
tendent Of the Union Pacific. More than
one-third Of them oppose the plan, which is
enough to block the Improvement for the
present.

Brewers Must
Not Do Retail
Business Here
Effect of Decision in the Metz Case
Handed Down by Judge
Estelie. +.

Brewers cannot sell beer in case lots to
consumers in Omaha or Nebraska, under
a wholesale license. .y'
This is the practical effect OF a decision
handed down by Judge EsteIle Friday at
2 O'Clock. S7a" so
The decision was rendered IN the case Of
the Metz Bros. Brewing company to which
a license vas granted by the Fire and
Police Board and from which action an
appeal was taken by the Anti-Saloon
league.
Judge Estelle said in his mind the whole
thing turned on the point whether selling
beer by the case to consumers is selling
at retail. He was reluctantly compelled,
he said, to reach the conclusion that such
sale is a sale at retail, ~
The attorneys are now arguing to the
court the matter OF the license. Attorneys
for the brewer contend that the order
to be made In the case should not include
a revocation of the license granted by the
board, while the A~nti-Saloon lawyers con-
tend that this license must be revoked.
The decision of Judge Estelle, II sus-
tanned in supreme court. VIM END a prac-
tice of thirty years and have far-reaching
consequences.
Strenuous protest was made by the at
torneys for the brewers against the propo-
sition that a reversal Of the action of the
fire and police board means a revocation
of the license. Nstv
Judge Estelle said he was willing to
hear arguments on this point, and the
hearing will be continued this morning at
IL O'Clock. "a" *''r23 '7

Put In Personal Appearance, but
Send substitutes-NO Fines
Levied as Yet.

When the greg of dawn came creeping
up in the east there arose a mighty jang-
ling of snow shovels up and down the by
ways and highways of Omaha.
There's a reason.
At 8 o'clock Friday morning, the very
last day in the year, former Senator JOS
eph H. Milard, president Of the Omaha
National bank, walked up the steps of the
old Dodge street school, now the dingy
police station. He was there to be tried
for failing to obey the city ordinance
which declares that sidewalks must be
cleared.
1t happened to be an hour before the
whee,s of Judge Bryce Crawford's mill Of
rapid-fire justice started to buzz, so the
bank president turned away without the
accommodation of speedy trial. An hour
later he returned and the case against him
was continued to the first of the new year,
pending the progress of the army Of snow
miners who are e~xcavating for Mr.. Mil
lard's sidewalks,
Senator Willard displayed a higher de-
gree of courage than several of his promi-
nent associates L. l.. Kountze, president
of the Kountze Real Estate company and
an officer of the First National bank, sent
a special representative, William Paxton
of the Paxton Real Estate company, and
the Milton Rogers & Son hardware house
were also represented by others,
On a showing that they were doing their
very best 10 get the offending walks
cleared, all cases where the excavation
work is in progress, were continued and
those where the walks had been cleaned
were dismissed Thus far no fines nave
been imposed.

An inquest Will be held by P. C. Heafey,

ease resulting from Mr.. Smiths weakened
condition. He had been ailing for less than
a week and had not been apparently serI-
ously i'll,
The funeral probably will be held Sunday.
Mr.. Smith has been connected with the
Cudahy company for twenty-five years IN
Omaha. He leaves no children. Two
brothers, Phillip, a government meat in
spector, and John, live in Omaha, while
a third, James, Is in the employ of the
Cudahy company In Wichita. Miss Lizzie

Mrs. Smith had risen before her husband
and was preparing breakfast when he died.
Returning to the room a few minutes later
she found him dead by the bedside. Nj.
Smith had apparently expired just as he
began to dress for the day. Three days ago
Mr.. Smith left his work, but had not been
apparently dangerously i'll.

Just at the dawn OF the new year comes
the announcement 90 another big office
building for Omaha. The Chicago &
Northwestern railroad will build a head
quarters building to accommodate the gen
eral offices Of the line west Of the river.
Plans have already been submitted to
our eastern officials for a general head
quarters building In Omaha" said Frank
Walters, general manager. shall also
have a new incoming freight house. Ac-
cording TO present plans we shall expend
from $4,000 to 100000 on the headquarters
and about 100000 on the freight depot.
The new freight house will be located
on Davenport street between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth streets, but we nave made
no decision as to the site of the head
quarters structure"
The general offices Of the Northwestern
lines west of the Missouri are now located
in the old United states National bank
building at Twelfth and Farnam streets,
where they have been for years. The city
passenger and ticket office is located in
the Paxton hotel. For some time It has
been realized that the present offices Of
the road have been inadequate to accom-
modate the increasing business Of the com
pany.
~ WA di9O DS ItCdnS0 lnhN the NdllOnal
Fidelity and Casualty COMPANY recently
bought the old United States National
bank structure. The Northwestern line has
q lease on Its present quarters, but the
sale OF the property is thought to have
given further stimuli to the plan to
build a headquarters building.

THE new building viii. doubtless go up
during the year, added MI. Walters.
Eastern officials win nave to approve the
architects plans first Of all, but the plan
to build some kind of g structure has al
ready been approved. The matter of a
location is pure guesswork just now; that
question has not been decided"
An additions. freight house is badly
needed in Omaha to facilitate the handling
of freight. The business OF the Northwest
ern has been growing rapidly of late
years.
In 1906 the company built a freight house,
with tracks and termiaal from Webster to
Davenport streets and Thirteenth and
Fourteenth. streets. A twin building will
be erected on the Thirteenth street side to
cost approximately 100000. 1t will extend
200 feet on Davenport street.
The new freight house will be used ex-
clusively for incoming shipments and the
old building for outgoing freight. THU
plan will greatly facilitate the handling OF
goods and win insure quick dlspatching
and cary delivery of goods.
