YANKEE NEGOTIATIONS OFF
Rupert Refuses to Pay More Than
$4,000 for Club.
ALSO WANTS CERTAIN MANAGER
Deal VIII Probably Ne Taken Up at
ChicasO This Week and au At
tempt Made 20 Reach an
Agreement.

FRENCH LICK. Ind, Dec. N.--Nego-
tiatiops here between Ban Johnson. presi-
dent of the American league, and Colonel
Jacob Rupert and Captain T. L. Huston
for the sale of the New York American
league club. were broken off tonight with
out an agreement, but probably will be
taken up in Chicago this last week.
According 10 announcement, Colonel
Rupert fixed $4,000 as the highest price
he would pay for the club and that only
after the services OF a certain manager,
whose name was withheld, had been OBJ
tained for the team. Johnson said to-
night that he not only would not meet
the price offered by Colonel Rupert. but
he could not guarantee that the man
would be obtained
Schedule Completed.
The schedule committee completed the
playing arrangements for 1915 today, but
said that they would not be made public
until at a meeting to be held in New York
in February.
johnson left tonight for Chicago. Col
onel Rupert said he and Captain Huston
would leave for Indianapolis tomorrow
and probably would go 70 Chicago on
Monday. While none of the principals
said anything about continuing the ne
gotiations for the sale OF the New York
Americans in Chicago. the fact that
Colonel Rupert and Captain Huston ex-
peoted 20 go there Monday was known to
indicate that the deal had not been defi-
nitely declared off.
No Reason Given.
No reason why Colonel Rupert should
limit his price to $4,000, when earlier In
the week he said he would pay as
high as $4,000 for the club. could be
learned. Johnson said that the players
demanded by Rupert could possibly be
signed, but he was not sure about the
manager.
Base ball men hero laughed at the
story that Joe Kelley. form Baltimore
star and leader last year of the Toronto
team. would be manager OF the New York
Americans next year,

Increases in the parcel post business
handled in Omaha approximate 100 per
cent. according to figures prepared by
Superintendent Reeds office. On Decem-
Der 49, 1919 the local stations handled
SO sacks Of parcel post matter. averaging
about eighteen packages TO the sack. on
the corresponding day this year, the same
stations handled Las pouches OF such
mail, a gain of considerably over 100 per
cent For December II. last year and this,
the figures are 1870 and 2,b2s sacks, or
another gain Of approximately 100 per
cent.
In spite OF these big gains. the off
cials declare. we are handling the par
eel post business now with greater ease
and less congestion than ever before"
omaha's large parcel post business Is
due not only TO this city's Importance as
a trade and mailing point. but also be-

Watch papa when he gets his on St. Valentines
eve. If he just grins and makes some remark TO
the effect that the manufacturer of the valentine
is certainly up-todate In placing his car1catured
figure in aeroplane, you may be sure he's a
pretty good sort Of a papa who believes IN boys
wearing their stockings out at the knee But If he
doesn't If instead he makes wry face and wryer
remarks anent the unwholesome influence of such
hideous atrocities upon the juvenile mind; he
isnt-well-it might not hurt him to be reminded
of the days when he kid himself. The real,
good natured beloved papa isn't apt to mind in

dignity. Maidens in the popular romances of the
day have unpleasant experiences OF that
sort--or at least If they do the author forgets to
mention them.
But how different it is when a really, truly
valentine arrives! Sister Lu is all smiles and ex-
ctement. Who could 1t have come from: Stop
that, you Jane, 1t isn't yours at ALL and you have
no business opening it. N.Y. how beautiful-how

$24,000,000 Missouri
Rail Suit Is Halted
Federal Judge temporarily Enjoins
State From Prosecuting Rate
Refund Claims.

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 10-Judge
Smith Mcpherson this afternoon in
the Federal Court temporarily en-
Joined Attorney General Barker, Of
Missouri, from further action in the
suits of the State against thirteen
railroads for $24,00O,0OO paid them in
excess passenger and freight rates
since two-cent passenger and maxi
mum freight rate bills became law in
Missouri and during most of which
time the railroads by Injunction and
carrying the cases to the Supreme
Court OF the United States have pre-
vented the enforcement OF these laws.
The judge said this order probably
would stand three weeks, at the end
of which time he will decide whether
he will retain jurisdiction of the re-
fund claims, estimated at from SIS
GOO, 600 to $40, 100000.
Six months ago the Supreme Court
decided that the railroads must com
ply with the Missouri rate laws and
this decision was sent to Judge Nc
Pherson. Meanwhile the railroads
were charging the old rates.

STATION GUARD

PAIR JUST WE'D
Policeman Prevents W. c. King
and Bride From Driving to
Train Over Tracks.

Here is how a policeman at the
shreWdly laid plans Of the newly mar
ried Mr.. and Mrs. William Clayton
King TO get away from Atlanta with
out being made the target Of the DEM
onstration that is customarly accord
ed newlyweds.
There was a happy wedding in the
First Baptist Church, on Peachtree
street, Saturday afternoon More than
hundred of the friends of Mr.. King
and Miss Mary Alpha Swilling, the
BRIDE ELECT, gathered to witness the
ceremony. which was performed by
the pastor, the Rev. c. W. Daniel.
The moment the last word was said
and before their friends could gather
about to submerge them with con-
gratulations, the bridal couple darted
out of the door, leaped into a waiting
automobile and were Whisked out of
sight.
Rode About for Hour.
They were to take the o'clock
train out of Atlanta. 1t was still an
hour before train time. There was
nothing for them to do but to motor
about the city. So persons were treat
ed to a spectacle Of a limousine dash
ing up one street and down another
without any apparent destination,
while young couple sat inside laugh
ing and chatting and very much en-
crossed with one another.
1t was their plan at the last minute
n h. hn CrD
under the building through the pas
sage that is used for baggage and
across the tracks to the waiting
train.
But they had reckoned without the
watchful guard. He saw the limou-
sine approaching. Up went his au-
thoritative hand.
Nothing doing" quoth he.
But we want to take this train,
protested bride and bridegroom in
unison.
Ran Into Stormy Ovation.
The guard had said his say His
word was memorable. His hand waved
them back.
The car backed and turned and car
ried them up to the station entrance.
They had barely time to make their
train They rushed into the crowded
waiting room-and a storm of rice,
old shoes and similar confetti.
Lined up in double row were their
friends awaiting them. They were
forced to run a gantlet that extended
all the way from the station entrance
to the ticket gates. The Terminal
Station seldom has witnessed such
an ovation or such an embarrassed
couple.
Station porters were half an hour
sweeping up the rice.
Mr.. Rice is d nephew of former
Congressman William NJ. Howard and
his bride is the daughter OF Mrs. II. X

nue.. They will take a two weeks
