PROPOSITION TO SWEEP THE STREETS MnmtrMfltircrn of MiiclilnrM AVlileli Clnlni lo Do ( lie Work Well Klooil ( ho Coinu-ll ivillt I'roitonltlotiH. The office of the city clerk anil the de- pnrtrnent of the street commissioner are being flooded with advertisements of firms manufacturing street sweepers. Many of the advertisements are accompanied by proposi tions from the makers to supply the city with the latcot Improved street cleaning ma chinery. There Ima been no formal call for propositions of thla character , but the dis cussion of the matter of street sweeping about the city building and by members of the council has been given considerable notoriety In the newspapers , and the notices have apparently caught the eye of every maker of such machinery In the cast. One maker offers a machine , which he guarantees to sweep perfectly clean the granite paved streets , picking up all kinds of debris under the size of a brickbat , and to cover over CO.OOO square yards of pavement In ten hours work with ono man and team. Ihls sweeper picks up the dirt and carries niiai"B-t ' n InW-alzed receptacle Is nilcil and which can bo dumped at any de- slder point. Another machine has a capacity of nearly double thla and Is declared to bo equally olllclcnt. It la to arranged that It can carry Its earth along and dump It Into ayagon when the rcceptaclo Is full , or It will pick up the dirt and drop It Into a wagon which li driven alongside for the purpose. This machine Is pulled by two horses and has a very light draft , for the reason that the ponderous steel broom la driven by an Independent motor on the ma chine. This motor can either be a gasoline engine , operated at small cost , or It can be nn electric motor , getting Its power from the street car trolley wires. There Is unquestionably growing up a strong demand for cleaner streets , and If this desirable end can be attained by the ttso of power sweepers , the progressive mem bers of the council will strongly favor their use. Enough money has been spent annually by the city to provide clean streets , but the primitive manner In which the work has been done has rendered It a failure. Through out the summer the dust that Is not flying through the air Is mixed Into nasty mud on the pavement by the street sprinklers. It Is scraped up at rare Intervals with hoes and shovels by gangs of men under the direction of the street commissioner and hauled off. At the end of an expensive cleaning there has boon no notlcablo Improvement , beyond the absence of a quantity of the mud. "I believe that the only way to keep the streets clean Is to sweep them , and If wo can keep a power sweeper In operation all the time at anywhere near the cost of the hand work that is done , I am strongly In favor of doing it , " said one of the now mem bers yesterday. "Tho street commissioner paid out last summer over $1,400 for street cleaning. The work was done as well as 11 could be under the circumstances and in the manner prescribed by the council , but If the people had not actually seen the work being done , no one could have been Induced to believe that It had been done at all. I fie not know what a good sweeper will cost , but I am satisfied that it will cost less than the amount that haa been wasted each year In abortive attempts to do the work. I am In favor of getting a high grade sweeper , the best there Is , and keeping It going night and day If necessary. The only reason that there Is any opposition at all In the council to the plan Is the fear of getting 'the enmity of the working men , who have been given occasional employment scraping the streets , but I pre fer to look at It as a purely business matter. If the sweeper Is operated constantly the commissioner could change his men often and glvo all a chance. But to obtain clean streets and not to dispense charity Is the object to bo attained. If the paved streets were swept once a day they would be clean enough for practical purposes. When the matter gets Into the council , as It will In a short time , I am going to favor It strongly. " Itoport of Ilocelvcr llmiiiril. The reports of Receiver Banard of the Omaha & St. Louis railway from March 1 to August 31 , 1890 , and from September 1 to February 28. 1807 , were filed In the federal court yesterday for the Inspection of Judge Woolson. The reports were made by the re ceiver to Special Master-In-Chancery L. W. Ross. The reports of the receipts and ex penditures of the road under the receiver make an excellent allowing.

The detailed report shows that the passenger department turned In $114,45G.-13 of this amount , while the freight department was only able to show total earnings of $33,233.70. During the six months the road carried the government malls and wao paid $14,791.02. The report Includes every cent of 'Income , even to the sale of small lots ol ecrap Iron. The dis bursements show that the heaviest Item of expense was the salary and pay roll , which amounted to $87,017.65. Labor , material and supplier cost the company during tbo time $26,595.11 , and $14,000 was expended for put ting In new tics. The last six months make a still better showing. The total recelpta were $232,840.09. The contribution of the passenger depart ment was $121,305,07. The total expenses for the six months were $195,298.09. Of this amount the pay roll consumed $80,699.35 ; $12,000 was paid out for taxes and $14,400 for Interest on receiver's certificates. The year closed with a net balance In favor of the company of $37,542.50 , as against $12,000 at the end of the preceding year. I'M Kin Kl < it CIIHO on Trial. The retrial of the Edglngton pension fraud case Is serving as an attraction strong enough to fill the United Statcn court room with spectators. Ono source "of this Interest Is the defeneb made by Hon. A. 11 , Cum- mlngs of DCS Molncs. Edglngton Is a fine appearing young man and his situation has awakened a great deal of sympathy.

( Special Tele gram. ) The legislative event today was the circulation or copies of a decision ot tlie circuit court of appeals In a Colorado case growing out of a suit against the relief department of the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy railroad. The court decided ad versely to the department , holding the plan Is In opposition to public policy and Judge Caldwell declaring that courts would doubt less soon hold all such departments Illegal. It has caused consternation among the lob byists for the railroad. The house passed the building and loan bill , which was defeated a few days ago , It was amended to allow an appeal from the decision of the executive council , and also lo prohibit any member of the council who has building and loan Interests from sitting In such cases In the council. The railroad law came up and the flght expected over the substitution of the old law for the commissioners' report. In the parts relating to the enforcement of orders of the commission , did not materialize , the substitution being made without substantial opposition. Smith of Greene ottered a pro posal to prohibit any railroad attornfy from being elected railroad commissioner , but after some debate It was withdrawn. The salaries of the commlFslonem were cut from $3,000 to $2,200 a year ; the senate had cut them to $2GOO. An effort to rals- ? the secretary's salary from $1,500 to $1SOO failed. The house passed the printing and bind ing bill without dissent. It will save about $10,000 t [ year , on 2tV par cent , but does not depart from the present system of having the work dons by olllccra elected by the legislature. The senate had a long fight over the med ical practice bill , the debate over an amend ment to allow osteopaths to practice with out qualifying under the law being the- subject of the afternoon debate.

South Omaha News The new sanitary ordinance defines the duties of the Inspector In detail , and among other things provides that he shall Inspect all buildings and see that the water closets conform to the ordinances , and that proper sewer connection Is made. All streets , al leys , public and private grounds , arc to bo Inspected , with reference to garbage , filth , manure or offal. Cellars and barns also como tinder the Jurisdiction of the sanitary Inspector , as do all goods carried for sale by grocers. The Ice furnished the public will also be Inspected , and .according to the or dinance filthy Ice may bo condemned. No standard Is mentioned In the ordinance , and Councilman Caldwell Intends having it emended so as to provide for tests niul all Ice below a certain standard Is to bo con demned. Caldwell has written to the health ofllclals of Chicago for n copy of the laws In vogue there governing Ice and very like ly the Chicago standard will bo adopted here. Fruit and berries will bo Inspected , and all not fit for food will bo condemned. The Inspector , as far ns necessary for the performance of his duties , may enter Into any building within the corporate limits of the city. Ho will bo clothed with the pow ers of a police olllccr , and any person who shall refuse to permit or allow him to enter any building , or ln | liny way Interfere , shall bo deemed guilty of a misdemeanor , and upon conviction he fined not less than $ C and not more than $100 , or be Imprisoned In the city jail for not more than thirty days. The Inspector will be required to make his reports to the garbage master In writing , so that there will be no mistake about the place ordered cleaned and the a'mount of work to bo done. I.ooUliiK ( ho Door.s. Chief Brjnnan has had six new locks placed on the cells and outer doors at the city Jail , and lie predicts that the next pris oner that attempts to escape will have a hard time of It. The basement door leading to the area way has been protected with a bar In addition to a substantial lock which will prevent the same trick being played again as In the case of Wilson and O'Brien. The chief Is certain that these prisoners had help from the outside as far as the breaking of the lock to the bullpen was concerned. He says it would bo Imposlble for a person insldo the pen to manipulate a bar of Iron so as to break the lock which Is on the out- stdo of the door. In his opinion the pals of the escaped prisoners entered the basement of the Jail through the area way , the lock on the door being a common one. It was easy then to break the lock on the bullpen and release the men , who had already man aged to get out of their cells. The council committee on public buildings Intend taking some action toward securing better protection for the west windows of the Jail. Something will be done to prevent articles being passed through the bars to prisoners. On account of the posi tion of these windows , I they being under a wide porch. It Is Impossible for the Jailer to see what Is going on there at night. Heavy wlra screens will most likely bo put up on the inside of the bars. PoIKIfH 111 tllO Il Many people will not understand the motive of Councilman Schultz's resolution Intro duced Monday night authorizing a committee to bo appointed to Investigate certain mem bers of the lire department , who were re ported to have been out electioneering lately. It appears that one day not long ago John Brlggs , one of the firemen at No. 1 house , put In part of a day Introducing Candidate John Ryan to the Bohemians. Now It hap pens that there Is no great amount of love between Ryan and Mayor Ensor , hence the Investigation The mayor hardly liked to assume the re sponsibility for removing Brlggs , an it might hurt the party he represents with the Bo hemians , so the scheme to have a committee appointed to Investigate Brlggs' actions was hit upon. Certain leaders among the Bo hemians have known for some days that the mayor wcs Investigating this matter and have not hesitated to express the opinion that If any action toward removing Brlggs is taken It > vlll have an effect on the party vote next month. Brlggs was appointed a fireman by Mayor Johnston and continued to hold his position after Mayor Knsor was Inducted Into office. He la considered n very good fireman and has considerable Influence with bis own people. Ainoniloil ( I nil rn lit 1 110 IluloN. Yesterday afternoon James L.
