Another Muzzled Clerk Writes
The Bee About the
Situation.
NO HOPE FOR RELIEF

Omaha, March l8.-To the Editor
Of The Bee: Your pictures in today's
paper OF delayed mails at Union Pa
cifc transfer were very timely. Allow
me to congratulate you on the same.
But they can but partially disclose
the true state of affairs as they really
are.
How little do the people know OF
how their business is run by few de-
partment heads. Everybody will agree
that the Postofiice department is a
business, run for the accommodation
of the public and quick service is one
of the essential facts of that business.
But far be it from such! Only those
who are in the service can appreciate
conditions as they really are.
Omaha is known as THE Gate
way to the West" and from the Union
Pacific Transfer at Council Bluffs to
Omaha practically all the trains from
the north, south and east travel over
the Union Pacific railroad. Naturally
the department figured that the Union
Pacific Transfer would be all ideal To-
cation for terminal for the distribu-
ton Of mails. And today they have
one of the largest terminals in this
section of the country located at that
place.
Recently there was statement in
one OF the papers made by Mr.. John
ston, superintendent Fourteenth di-
vision, to the effect that there was no
delay to mails passing through this

Washington. March l9.-The fol

State department very late last night
and was given out today:
7 "Thirty-three survivors Of the City
of Memphis do not include Captain
L. P. Borum and four other Ameri-
cans and four non-Americans, but in

inc approaching to one mile, fired once

terminal. The pictures told pay q
the story. Now for the other ~ 1zS
When the mail trains from thew
arrive at Union Pacific Transfer there
are always Union Pacific trains await
ing there to have the mail transferred
to them so they can speed on west
with it. But only very small per-
centage is transferred as the bulk of
it is trucked to the terminal, there TO
be distributed because it is a great
deal cheaper than having it worked
on the trains.
Orders have been issued that only
first class mail and daily papers are to
be distributed on the trains, also that
we are not to check as errors any
daily papers found in the sacks in the
terminals. Now. Mr.. Editor, how
long are the people going to stand for
this? 1t has been going on for some
time. 1t will continue until the public
i'll general asks for an investigation.
We clerks cannot ask for an investi-
cation because it would be the same
as stopping our own pay. There is
delay to mails passing through the
terminals, but it is mere guess as to
how great the delay, as i'll some in
stances | know of the same sack that
has been hanging for forty-eight
hours.
Mr.. Editor, | wish you would have
these terminals investigated and find
out for yourself if you can, the true
state of affairs. would be willing to
wager that if a body of reporters, one
from each paper in Omaha, were to
ask for special permits that they
might enter these terminals and in
vestigate for themselves, they would
be denied admission.
Publish this if you care to Mr.. Edi-
tor, but as a matter of safety first !
will be compelled to withhold my
signature. Very respectfully,
A RAILWAY MAIL CLERK.

SECRETARY KEPT
AWAY FROM BEVERLY
Former Omaha Man Subject of
Contest Between Family
and Employe.
LIVING IN KANSAS CITY

Kansas City, Mo-, March l0-(Spe-
cial Telegram. flames Beverly, for
mer state representative, of Omaha,
and later a Topeka (kas.) insurance
man, has been removed from 81 Ben
ton boulevard to hospital, the loca-
ton of which is concealed by his wife
and daughter.
Beverly, apparently suffering from
strange malady, was found by his
wife and daughter in the apartment
building on Benton boulevard, which
is owned by Beverly. His private sec
retary, Miss Hattie Bowlby, was with
him at the time, and after the wife
and daughter arrived here from
Omaha she was evicted.
Mystery continues to surround the
Beverly case. A wealthy man of
large business affairs and alert mind
has become strangely weak and in
firm. He had been. separated from
his wife and she had been living in
Omaha with daughter, who recently
was married.
Last August Beverly sold his in
surance business in Topeka and came
to Kansas City, taking up his resi-
dence in the apartment on Benton
boulevard. He also owns another
apartment next door.
A niece was summoned from Roch-
ester, N. Y, week ago by Miss
Bowlby, who has been Mr.. Beverlys
confidential secretary for years. Then
the wife and daughter were called.
When they arrived there was clash
between Miss Bowlby and the rela-
tives, which resulted in Miss Bowlby
being locked out.

SIXTH APPEAL FOR
WAR RELIEF MADE
Federated Churches of Christ
in America Send Easter
Message" to Churches.
PLAN WEEKLY PLEDGES

"An Easter Message is the title OF
the sixth appeal for war relief funds
by the Federated Churches of Christ
in America. Pastors and Sunday
school superintendent are requested
to read the message in the churches.
1t has been mailed TO 100000
churches.
1t lays stress upon the spirit of
self-sacrihce shown by the peoples OF
the countries which have been in
volved in the war. While America
has given 9 cents per capita for re-
lief in Belgium, Tasmania has given
$3.50 and New Zealand $l.25. Can
ada has given much more in propor-
ton to her numbers than the United
States for Belgium and for the relief
OF Armenians and Syrians, besides
raising an army of half million men
and boys with all the accompanying
burdens. The people of the warning
countries, it is said, have definitely
accepted the spirit of sacrifice during
the continuance of the war. This, the
Message asserts, few Americans have
done.
The liberality of certain churches
and individuals is recounted in the
Message. While the American peo-
pie have given, less than 20 cents per
capita per year since the war began,
a little church at Owings, S. C., Of
forty members, half OF them children
and none well-to-do, gives $40 per
month. A small church at Pomfret,
Conn, gives regularly at the rate OF
IS per capita per year. An Episcopal
rector was given a legacy of 81 1000.
He wrote that he didn't need it at
that time, and couldn't use it while
the world is suffering so terribly, and
turned it over 10 the Federal Council
for War Relief. A chauffeur sent $40.
A wealthy New York man has given
100000 anonymously in monthly in
stallments and has recently increased
these monthly gifts.
The churches of the country are
urged to take a special war relief Of
fering OH Easter Sunday and to inau-
gurate the plan already followed by
many churches of giving regularly to
war relief by system of pledges Of
weekly or monthly gifts.
The great suffering i'll Poland,
where so many of the children have
died and 100000 people are desti-
tute; in Belgium where the need is
greater today than ever: in the Bal
kan countries, where hundreds of
thousands are always hungry, and
among the Moslems, Syrians, Per-
slams and Armenians are set forth
as demanding immediate and gener-
Gus response.
