Union Pacific Pays
Big Sum to Settle
Case Out of Court

The biggest amount the Union Pacific
ever paid to settle a personal injury case
outside of court" declared a member of
the law department Of the railroad.
The amount paid for the settlement is
$4,000 and the case is one in which
Charles Brown brought suit for $4,000 for
injuries which left hina--with both feet
cut off. tH.
The case has been on the docket of the
district court here, the lawyer for the
plaintiff being Attorney Sam Anderson
Of St Paul. with whom are associated
McGilton, Gaines & Smith.
Explaining the settlement the same at
torney said This is a big amount to
pay, from a railroad standpoint. But we
once had a similar case in which we
thought we had better defense and went
to Jury which gave a verdict against
US of $4,000. Under the circumstances
all concerned in this case finally con-
cluded that the settlement agreed upon
was the best way out"

Pleads for Beauty
In Literary Work

Give beauty a chance. I'm not hold

service to literature is a soul-shriveling
hypocrisy" said DR. S. IL. Clark OF the
University of Chicago. speaking to
Omaha school teachers at the high school
auditorium yesterday afternoon.
DIR. Clark scattered a few gems of
poetry before the teachers. One OF the
greatest lines in literature, he said, was
Marc Antony's last cry:
Il am dying, Egypt, dying" Z
There must be innate music in poetry,
and music beauty, the picture, justify
poetry, the doctor commended.
Concerning preoocious children and the
young hopefuls who go around Juggling a
Shakespeare under one arm and a Greek
manuscript under the other, DR.. Clark
said he didn't fall for them to any ex-
tent.
Dr. Clark cried. Heaven help us"
when he repeated Thomas A. Edison $

would replace books ut can't be done.
The movie is lazy mans entertain

RIBOT PROPOSES
new BOND issue
Seeks Popular SubScrip-
lions as Patriotic In
VeStment.
IRy CahIe to Tho Tribune. |

Paris, Sept. ga new issue by the
French Treasury is under discussion.
The Finance Minister, Alexandra Ribot,
has proposed that the President Of the
republic sanction the issue of large
quantity Of low price Treasury bonds.
The value Of the notes, il is proposed,
shall be fixed at $50, $40, 500 and 5000.
The ground for an issue of cheap
bonds is to attract widespread popular
subscriptions. Hitherto subscribers for
Treasury bonds have been confined
mainly TO credit establishments, banks
aud commercial chambers. The title is
TO be given to these notes of national
defence bonds.
This is a direct appeal to public
patriotism and financial advantage. In
terest is expected to be per cent.
Minister Ribot states that only $780,
100000 worth Of Treasury bonds are
now in circulation. There is room for
a large issue before reaching the statu-
tory limit. 1t is an appeal to the
French spirit of thrift and saving.
The time limit for these bonds is
three months, six months and one year.
They can be used for payment on sub
scription TO any other loans, and will
receive preference over further issues.
They will be quoted at par. The decree
authorizing the issue of the bonds has
been. promulgated.
Minister Rbot has given orders 10
the general treasury paymasters to pay
the dividepts due of French 3 per cent
redeemable rentes. Payment Of divi-
dends will be made on the simple pres
entation Of coupons, without other
formality, such as the delivery of a
new certificate in case one or several
Of the series are reimbursable, but
bear no interest.
The foreign exchange market has
been completely disorganized by the
total or part cessation of commercial
relations with other countries and by
the fixing Of forced currency rates in
most Of them. The Finance Minister
urges the Bank of France and the great
credit establishments TO take steps to
remedy this situation so far as is COM
patiblc with present conditions.
A movement is OH foot among tinan-
ciers to petition the government to re-
open the Paris Bourse on October l.
The chief difficulty about this is that
all capital and all securities have been
removed to Bordeaux and other places.

DEMAND FOR PRINT
CLOTH IMPROVES
Increase in Sales and Steadier
Prices Make ManufactIrs
erS Optimistic.

Fall River, Mass, Sept. 20.-A sub
stantial improvement WAS noted in the
cotton cloth markets of New England
last week, and while the volume of
business was by no means large, com
pared with the weekly production Of
the mills, manufacturers and brokers
were more optimistic than for several
weeks.
The total sales last week will exceed
100000 pieces, about two and one-half
times the amount of goods sold the
week before. The weekly production
of the print cloth mills is about 100000
pieces. Just now, however, mills are
running on a reduced schedule Of
working hours. The curtailment last
week was comparatively small, Manu-
facturers were called upon to pass upon
considerable number of orders, and
while prices suggested in some cases
were smaller than millmen cared to go
inquiry showed that buyers were willing
to purchase goods under favorable con-
GitCns. Many buyers are not in po-
sition to talk future business, because
they arc unable to perceive conclus-
lively what styles of cloths will be
needed.
The demand last week, as has been
the case for several weeks, was for
wide and medium wide goods, and there
were some large individual orders.
Prices on the popular makes stlffened
materially, and prices which manu!act-
urers would accept two weeks ago are
refused now. Fine goods concerns are
doing a fairly comfortable business.
Reports indicate that buyers are In
need of certain styles, especially fine
cotton fabrics iCr women's wear Some
samples of foreign importstions sub
mitted to New Bedford and Fall River
mills have been matched successfully,
and a good business has been done on
them. The European war has served 10
manifest to some cloth factors that just
as good cloth can be made by American
mills as can be imported from Europe.
Cotton yarn markets are relatively
quiet, with the demand spotty. Raw
cotton is beginning to stiffen up. The
week closed with the demand fairly

crate demand and steady, but finished
steel has had less demand and the mar
ket is weaker Sugar has declined since
it became apparent that distributors
were fairly we'll supplied, although
England has been in the market for
large quantities of both raw and re-
fined.
In the country produce markets some
weakness has been shown BY butter,
cheese and eggs, while potatoes, apples
and the smaller fruits and vegetables
have been sutiect to only the usual
market fluctuations based on daily re.
ceipts and demand. The opening OF
the city markets has so far had niue
effect on the trade at large. There mas
been a declining tendency in the live
stock and dressed meat trades, but no
large reductions have been made IN
high class veal and lamb, either alive
or dressed. The fact that the live
stock markets have not shown any ma
terial advance gives ground for the be-
lief that while there ID big shortage
in the supply Of live food cattle, there
is at the sSne time lessenlng OF the
demand for meat products which goes
a long way toward equalizing matters.

URGE TRACKS ON BRIDGE

Representatives Of millions OF in

to urge the adoption of the plans pre-

for the reconstruction of the Queens
boro Bridge TO permit the placing upon

If the Bridge Commissioner, this work
will cost 5000 900, and it will take

possible to establish connections with
the lines in Manhattan. Investors, hav-
ing placed their money in dwellings

It is for this reason that demand
will be made to have the plans for the
bridge reconstruction approved, so

report OF the committee "HlCH "eH' W
Washington to consult with Secretary
Houston on that point is awaited with
interest. The spot markets in the
South showed some substantial gains
in the late trading, and the "buy a
bale" movement appears to have de-
veloped more strength than had been
anticipated. There has been some
comment as to the ACCESSIBILITY Of in
ducing individuals to pay 10 cents
pound, or $50 bale, for cotton to be
placed i'm a storehouse and await a
demand, when the spot price is below
that figure; but at the rate spots have
been advancing in the South there will
be m rgin of profit for buyers in
stead of loss if the movement
keeps up.
There is one benefit from the cotton
situation which seems to have been
overlooked in many quarters, and that
is the solid basis the planter will have
for his crop in the building of ware
houses through the belt. The reopen
ing of the exchanges, however. IS the
main thing needed to insure stability
and start the wheels of business
going again. When the South can
hedge, banks lend money knowing the
market value of their collateral and
spinners make contracts for supplies
and the sale of goods with full knOwl-
edge of conditions in both markets
there will be no need of buy a bale"
movement to save the planter from
disaster.
Cotton goods and cotton yarn mar
kets are generally irmer and higher
than they were week ago, although
price revisions on finished goods are
now becoming more common, in keep
ing with the reyisions made on gray
goods some time ago. The inability to
get dyestuffs continues to restrict trade
