SMALL HOTEL MEN TESTIFY
BEFORE THE GRAND JURY
PrOpPietOrs and Clerks Are Quizzed
About Admitting Boys and
Girls to Rooms.

Several proprietors and clerks of small
hotels have testified before the grand jury,
which is investigating charges that boys
and girls are wrongfully admitted to such
places.
Those who came in answer to sum-
monses Wednesday and who testified were
these:
Samuel Nathan, proprietor of the Bruins
wick, Dodge and State hotels.
Joseph 8. Bixler, of Bixler & Sideny,
proprietors of the Arcade hotel.
L. w. Panica, proprietor of the On,
hotel.
Frank Johnson, clerk at the Arcade.
Thomas McAvoy, clerk at the Oma.
One after another these men were called
singly into the grand jury room. where
each remained for at least half an hour.
Inside the locked doors they are UNDER
stood to have been quizzed at length about
what scrutiny couples who wish to rent
rooms are subjected to. And without ex-
ception each hotel man asserted that care
and precaution is aiken that no suspicious
couple gets a room.
While waiting his turn before the in
quisitors, L. w. Panica of the Oma as
serted that they are making a great fuss
over nothing at all" and one of the Arcade
hotel meR present declared that only last
Sunday the police had been notified when a
couple looked suspicious to the clerk. An
arrest was made by the police following
the notification.
why are they jumping on us poor
fellows only?' inquired one Of the wit
nesses. There are other hotels in Omaha
that are bad, If we are bad. But they seem
just to be picking on u.s."

END OF WATER WORKS CASE
STILL AN UNCERTAIN DATE
Attorney for Water Company Says He
is Doubtful. ID. Hunt Casts
Out Anchor to Windward.

Richard S, Hall, attorney for the Omaha
Water company. says he is looking for
the argument in the water works owner
ship case to come up in the United States
supreme court some time between March
1 and Is.
There is nothing certain about the date,
however" said Mr.. Hall.
'When do you look for a decision after
argument?'
"Oh, man. that's beyond telling by any
body"
Superintendent A. b. Hunt OF the water
company has already cast an anchor to
windward by becoming treasurer of a new
life Insurance company formed by Omaha
and Nebraska men, with head office in
Omaha. He makes little secret of the fact
that he would not serve In any capacity
with the plant should 1t pass into the
ownership of the city. Other employees of
the company feel very much the same
as Hunt about taking chances with a city
board in control of the water works. hut
they are saying little.
What's the use Of talking about the fu-
ture?' asked Stockton Heth. THE United
States supreme court is slow and methodi-
cal No man can tell when a decision IL
likely to be handed down. Even then, il
would require time, and be something OF a
chore, to make a transfer and put the
city In possession.

Insurgents Driven
From Matagalpa
Bombardment is Renewed and General
Chamorra Abandons the City
Early in Day.

MANAGUA, Feb. 16.-The forces Of Presi-
dent Madrlz have again taken possession
OF M~atagRlpa, which on February 10 was
occupied by General Chamorro, one Of the
inrurgent leaders. The bombardment of
the city, which was begun Sunday night.
after notification had been given to the
ron-combatants to withdraw, was aband-
oned for some hours and begun again yes
terdsy. The government forces had heavy
guns on the hills. but the insurgents were
without means to reply at long range.
Chamorro therefore deemed It advisable to
retreat and under the cover of darkness
evacuated Matagalpa at an early hour this
morning.
Generals Lara, Chivarria, Martinez and
Rivas, each of whom commanded sections
OF the government troops, reoccupied the
city at noon. Chamorro did not escape any
too soon, as he was nearly surrounded by
the government forces, which had not
been brought as quickly as the condition
of the country would permit during the
last few days.
1t Is reported here that General Chamorro
has broken away from General Estrada
and proclaimed himself president. Over
lures have been made to President Madriz
by Chamorro through the medium Of the
American consular agent, w. H. Desavigny,
at Matagalpa, for the re-establishment of
peace. Chamorro's- offer, embodied In a
letter, is now in the hands of Vice Consul
Caldera, and President Madriz has as yet
been only unofficially informed Of the pro-
posal, but he has already given his answer,
which is the unconditional surrender and
Imprisonment of Chamorro are the only
terms acceptable. IA.t

STUDENTS AT SOUTH OMAHA.
Two Hundred from Lincoln off on
Annual JRunt Through Pack
inRtoWn.


What the matter with South Omaha
It's all right! What's the matter with
Buckingham? He's all right"
SO shouted 200 students from the Ne
braska State School of Agriculture as
they rose from a lunch table Wednesday
at noon in the dining hall of the Omaha
Live Stock exchange. The students were
up on their annual trip of inspection
through the packing plants.
They faced the cold and passed rapidIv
through the various departments, enjoying
the rapid movements which mark the
morning sales. OF special interest was
the hog yards, where every hundred
pounds OF pork was worth nearly 50.
Thu boys on their way through
the packing houses found many sights
to attract them and the various branches
OF the industry were unfolded by a sauau
of guides and demonstrators. The man
ayers of the packing houses in several in
stances personally led the party. At Swift
& Co. and Armour & Co.'S plant the usual
complete exhibit was inspected.
The professors with the students were
H. r. Smith, head Of the Department of
Agriculture, and Assistants Robert Ashby
and Ellis Rail. Instructor S. McKelvie
and S. w. Perrin, the farm superlntendents,
were also present. l., S. Heron of the Ne
braska Farmer made one Of the party.
This visit marks the close OF the shorter
course in agriculture, thus allowing the
boys TO return to their homes for spring
work.
A banquet was served for the students
at $3.50 p. m. at the Exchange building. after
which the management entertained them
until 9 o'clock.

CHICAGO. Feb. 1s.-The Western League
was unable to decide upon a schedule at
today's meeting and adjourned until to-
morrow morning. II. is almost certain that
l6s games will be played and the season
will probably begin about April p and end
October 4,
This was practically decided upon at to-
days meeting, but the schedule committed
was unable 20 adjust certain dates to
the satisfaction Of all the club owners.
The general outline OF the draft submitted
by the committee proved satisfactory and
the Sunday dates were said to be the rock
upon which the split came. The isolated
geographical location OF Denver caused
the schedule COMMITTEES trouble in the APP
portlonment OF the Sundays at home. The
committee again went into session and It
is expected that all the Objectionable fea-
lures will be eliminated by tomorrow.
Des Molnes sold five men to the Green

IN MERGER CASE
MOhler and seger Go to New York to
Testify.
LATTER WILL PRODUCE FIGURES
vice President VIII say tina south
ern and Union Pacific Roads Are
Not Competitive, Hence
Not ViOIntinE Law.

Two Hartman officials in Omaha-A. l..
Mohler, vice president and general man
ager of the Union Pacific, and c. b. Seger.
general auditor of the Hartman system
have been to New York as wit
nesses in the governments suit TO dissolve
the so-called merger.
Nelson H.. Doomis Of Omaha. general
solicitor of the Union Pacific, has been
east since the filing Of the suit and will
remain as railroad counsel until the pro-
ceedlngs close. He was with President
Lovett at the time the answer was made
to the governments action at Washington,
Mr.. seger probably will be called upon
the witness stand to produce figures show
ing the relative amount OF trade over the
Hartman lines since the merger. OF the
decrease from 70 per cent to 80 per cent in
the freight traffic over the Sunset Route
In 1891, the year Of the consolidation, the
government insists that only a small part
of this amount was due to legitimate com
petition.
II called pom the stand It Is understood
that Mr.. Mohler will emphasize that the
Union Pacific-Southern Pacific merger Is
In no wise a combine or competing lines
and therefore is not operating in restraint
OF trade.
Coming at the same time as the hearing
In New York is the decision of the federal
court at San Antonio, Tex, to the effect
that the lease OF the Galveston, Harris
burg & San Antonio road is Illegal and
that the relation shall be dissolved. This
road is one Of the subsidiary lines Of the
Pacific.
If other subsidiary lines Of the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific are dissolved
as a result Of the hearing in New York It
Will not come as as a big surprise to local
officials. ,
