Stlckney yesterday told the interstate commerce commission how a man who formerly li as a prosperous grain dealer at Oma ha became penniless and Is now living Hi Chicago and working as a clerk as a result of the persecution of the Union Pacific railway. Stlckney said the man accidentally discovered that the Union Pacific was ■paving heavy rebates to the F. H. pcavey Grain Company and demanded of ihe road an equal rebate with the Peavey Company. The company prom ise,1 to "make It all right" with him, If he would turn over to It a letter which had been Intended for the Pevvey Com pany. but had been misdirected and had fallen Into the hands of the com plainant. The letter was surrendered and that was the last heard from the Union Pa cific until he Inquired of the roud what they were going to do for him. The official of the railroad then became In dignant and refused to discuss the matter. The grain dealer himself then grew Indignant, and the result was that the road "layed for-him" and It was not l o . 0 *“ r , ore the * rnln man, who had hut ,30,000 In the world, was driven to the wall. He was compelled to go to work In a grain office, but was driven from that because It was feared he might Injure the railroad. Mr. Stlckney withheld the man's name, but the commission expects to hear more about It upon the arrival of E. M. s. Letlamy, one of the ruined dealer*, who Is now on the way to Chi cago from Lexington, Nebraska, to tes tify against the Union Pacific.

Just behind Robertson was Elliott F. Shepard In his 130-horse-power Hotchkiss machine. Robertson had raised a lot of dust and Shepard could n«it see wnat was ahead of him. For tunately for him, however, he slowed up to tnke the dangerous Hair Pin turn and thus saved his life. As Shepard reached the beginning of the turn he caught sight of the tele graph pole which had been snapped like a tooth-pick, lying alongside the turnpike. Then he stopped his machine and saw the car overturned and wreck ed and Robertson and Warren uncon scious near by. - Shepard harr hl% machinist run his car to the nearest telephone station and call an ambulance from the Nassau hospital at Mlneola.

Bryan and party were greeted here last evening by a crowd numbering about 6,000, and the reception was a most cordial one. The special train pro vided by the state Democratic commit tee, bearing Mr. and Mrs. Bryan, Gov ernor Glenn, Senators Overman and Simmons, Congressman Webb, and the committee of escort, arrived at 7:16 o’clock. The party was met at the de pot by the mayor, aldermen and a com mittee of citizens In carriages, and es corted to the Southern Manufacturers' Club, where a reception was tendered the Nebraskan, followed by an Inform al supper. At 8:15 o’clock Mr. Bryan was escorted to an elaborately decorat ed stand In Vance park, where he spoke for an hour. Talk to Laboring Mt.i. One of the most significant speeches of the day's Journey through the Tar Heel state yesterday was made by Mr. Bryan at High Point to a tremendous crowd at 2:30 o’clock. Senator Lee S. Overman Introduced the Nebraskan. Noting the great num ber of laboring men In his audience, Mr. Bryan devoted the major part of his talk to the relations of capital and labor. Said he: “As I look abput me, 1 look Intb the faces of laboring men, and I cannot thus see you without recalling the fact that when I first entered politics, and had taken a position on certain public questions, there were those of- my friends In my social circles, In the busi ness world and among the literary clubs, who severed their relations with me. It was from the men whoso hands had been hardened by toll, and those who carry with them the dinner palls that I had my support. I shall never forget that In my campaign of 1896 there was Inserted In my platform plank for arbitration between labor and capital. Some will tell you that the slfver plank drove away from me the most of the support of the money class, but I tell you It was not the sliver plank, but the clause for arbitration that drove them away far more than silver. Again I Insisted that there should be an arbitration plank, and would not allow my party to take a backward step when I believed they were right, as I now' believe they are." Arbitration Discussed. Referring to arbitration between cap ital and labor Mr. Bryan said: “I do believe that If there were Investigations and conferences looking toward arbitration before the strikes are entered Into that nine out of every ten w'ould be settled before they are fully begun. You hear an employer ■ay that he will run business to suit himself, or shut down. That Is all right, so long as he does not run any one else’s business, and Interfere with the liberty and pursuit of happiness of his employee. I deny that there Is any right to arbitrarily regulate any man’s wealth and liberty and welfare. You have heard me criticised for trying to array class again class. You will not find a speech In which I have done such a thing. On the other hand, I have tried to bring the people closer together In nil things, and to make peace always In all things.’’ An open nlr meeting at Salisbury was prevented by a downpour of rain and the speaking was held In the court house. Here Mr. Bryan spoke for an hour nnd then left for Concord. Replies to 8«cr«tsry Shaw. Fully 6,000 people greeted the speak er at Concord. Here Mr., Bryan took occasion to reply to the recent speeches of Secretary Shaw on his tour of the South. The special train left Concord at 6:46 o’clock, following a 30-mlnute speech, anil no stops were made be tween that city and Charlotte. Mr. Bryan was Introduced by Con gressman E. Yates Webb. He devoted his time to the recent speech In this state of Secretary of the Treasury Shaw, declaring sarcastically that the secretary had given the people of North Carolina “second hand tariff garments,” in Ills speeches here. Mr. Bryan said: ••The people of Iowa, the secretary’s native state, have repudiated those stand pat Ideas of his on the tariff, so he Is working them off on the South.” He styled Secretary Shaw as the “prince of stand patters.” "He prom ises nothing on behalf of his party,” Mr. Bryan said; “he belongs to thnt faction of his party which believes thnt the Republican party has always done light, that It could no nothing wrong, and that present conditions cannot be Improved upon." Quits North Carolina. Closing a two-days’ tour of North Carolina, in which he made prenrrnng ed speeches In a dozen towns and rear platform talks in half as many more, William Jennings Bryan closed his en gagements in this state in Charlotte, and passed on to Columbia. There will be but one speech delivered by Col onel Bryan today. That will be at Co lumbia and will be one of the most sig nificant of the Southern tour. newberrians attend THE BRYAN RECEPTION.
