Plans Being Made to Have Public
Reception at New Building
January /.
MOVING FROM OLD STRUCTURE
Some Have Already Changed Of
fIces and Others Expect to
Move by End of the
Coming Week.

Unless the plans miscarry Union Pa
cifo officials and clerks will act as hosts
to all of Omaha and the surrounding
country January /, 1912. As outlined at
this time the plan is to throw the new
Union Pacific headquarters open to the
public on New Years day and hold O re-
ception, or house warming.
BY January / next the new building will
be fully completed and all of the officials
will be settled and ready to receive vIs-
itors. These officials feel that Omaha
people and those OF the surrounding
country should be given an opportunity
OF inspecting the tweIve-story building
from top to basement, and are of the
opinion that New Years day is the most
appropriate and opportune time.
The new unIon Pacific headquarters
building is rapidly nearing completion,
and during the coming week a number of
the departments will move in, abandon
ing the old building at Ninth and Farnam
streets. Even at this time the freight
auditor. the general passenger agent and
the auditor Of passenger accounts have
partially completed packing their books,
papers and documents and are prepared
to move on a days notice These de-
partments probably will be the first to
move.
In the new building the department
heads occupy relatively the same posi-
tions as in the old. In the old building,
with the exception OF President Mohler
and the general passenger agent, the
department heads had their offices in
the southwest corner, and in relocating
the old plan has been adopted in the
new structure.

Body Of Smith, Who
= Died at the Vermilya
Home, to Be Exhumed

CHICAGO, Nov. 4-Coroner Hoffman
left this morning for North Henderson
H., where Richard r. Smith, the con-
ductor who died at Mrs. Vertnilya's
home, was buried. This was In accord
with the coroners announcement that he
would have his organs examined.
The police admitted today they had
practically reached the end of their rope
In their investigation into the death Of
Patrolman Arthur Blsonnette and the
deaths Of eight others, all OF whom had
been close associates of Mrs. Louise
Vermilya. Although Coroner Holman had
satisfied himself that Bisonnette died by
arsenic poisoning and warrant charging
murder has been issued for the woman,
the evidence againt her thus far is purely
circumstantial.
The coroner, the states attorney and
the police department have had detectives
looking up every possible connection Of
Mrs Vermilya for tho last week, ever
since It was suspected that the patrol
mans death was not natural.
Arthur Bisonnet;c, ST., father OF the
dead policeman, todey described Mrs. YER
milya's efforts to obtain his sons body
for burial after his death.
AN undertaken named G. c. Boyson
was making ready u move the body five
minutes after GGath,' lie said. Il pro-
tested at the hurry end she insisted that
1t would be better to move the body
at once. l Finally forbade them to
touch It,"
The contents of nine bottles OF medl-
cine taken from Mrs. Vermilya's home
by the coroner are being analysed.
The police decided not TO arrest Mrs.
Vermilya because Of her Illness. but will
keep a police guard at her home until
she is strong enough to be locked up.

BOULEVARD BONDS URGED
Park Commissioners Out with State
ment to the Public.
HOW MONEY IS TO BE SPENT
Contend that without Additional
Funds Proposed city Road Sys-
tenn Cannot he BcttcTed
or Maintained.

The omaha Board Of Park commission
ers has issued statement I'm regard to
the proposed park bonds in the amount
of $4,000 and urge the voters to endorse
the bonds at the polls next Tuesday. The
! statement of the board follows:
OMAHA, Neb,, Nov 4-To the Editor
of The Omaha Bee The Board of Park
commissioners has asked the voters TO
authorize an issue of bonds to the amount
OF $4,000 to be used for the improvement
of the boulevard system.
BY way of explanation. the boulevards
OF Omaha have no regular support outside
OF the road fund which comes from Doug
las county. Since that road fund was
inaugurated in 1892 the average annual
sum from that source has been about
$4,000. 1t can readily be seen that with
this sum alone the maintenance of the
system would absorb the major portion,
while little would be left for macadamiz-
in or otherwise improving old boulevards
or for grading new ones. The charter pro-
vides that bonds may be issued for this
purpose, and by this means Inacadamiz-
! Ing can be done TO great advantage anG
new boulevhrds be graded and improved
We wish to state to the public what Is
contemplated in the way OF improve
ments, but first want you to know what
sued in 1910 The necessary grading was
sued I'm 1910. The necessary graded was
completed and spans of macadam and
curbing were put in where most needed.
1t is to complete these unpaved portions
that we are desirouS Of the bonds now
asked for.
For the nine months ended the follow
ing has been expended in grading paving
and curbing Florence boulevard S1f,-
O5l96; West Central boulevard 81 ,s4S ,ss +;
South Central boulevard, si26s22O North
west boulevard, s14.S4O1O; Southeast boul-
evard. $S,CO3.7s.
From the bonds which II is urged that
Omaha authorize next Tuesday It will be
possible TO complete the macadam on
Florence boulevard, extend the paving on
Southeast boulevard toward Riverview
park, and macadam south of Hanscom
park where now there is the oiled dirt
| road connect the paving on West Cen
trail boulevard and grade the new boule-
ward from Bemls to Fontanelle park.
Although the park board passes out of
office with the coming of the new com
mission form OF government next spring,
we all SEQ the necessity of this bond issue
that tho work of perfectinG omaha's
boulevard system be carried toward COM
| pletion.
Without the bonds, the funds available
will scarcely maintain the boulevards In
a passable condition, and with the exces-
sive wear the maintenance OF cinder and
oiled dirt roads is very expensive and
unsatisfactory. For that reason 1t is de-
sirable to put In permanent paving, and
to do this IT Is impossible under our laws
without the bonds. So we ask the public
! spirited citizens to take an interest in
this proposition of such large Importance
to the entire city.

HnnkOw Mission Destroyed.
HANKOW, China. Nov. 4.-(Via WI
Hu.)-Almost the whole OF the native city
of Hankow is on fire this morning and
It is feared that the Wesleyan mission
near the Han river in which are fifty
blind boys and $50 wounded persons who,
with til taft of the mission. make up a
total o. persons. was destroyed.
Dr. booth. the head OF the mission,
asked the imperialists to grant an armis-
tice of two hours 10 permit of removal
from the mission. but the firing ceased
for only a half hour.
A. Red Cross steamer which attempted
to rescue the inmates OF the mission was
driven back by the fire from the rebel
fort One shell riddlsd> the steamers deck
house. a.,
When the vessel was compelled to turn
back the mission was still standing. but
its position was hopeless, the flames be-
ing within 200 yards of it.
The flames In the town were started by
the imperialists, who threw inflammable
shells into the place. A strong wind
carried the flames across the river TO Han
Yang and strip of that city on the
water front a mile long was destroyed
and the fire is still burning there.
A few hundred rebels against whom the
imperialists are preparing to advance and
occupy the unburned parts of .Hankow.
When the steamer left an artillery duel
was taking place between the batteries
OF the imperialists, which were planted
back OF the British concession, and the
Wu Chang and Han Yang forts. Sew
eral rebel shells landed in the foreign
concessions, piercing the walls of houses.
The imperials occupy the district west
ward OF the railway station almost to
the Han river.
The Chamber of Commerce asked the
foreign consuls to protest against the
burning OF the city. but the consuls de-
clined to do so.
