CENTRAL LABOR UNION MEETS Mutter * Pertaining to the JVcvr City Charter In Connection with Public Work DUcnmied.

Louis Lloyd waa arraigned before Judge Gordon upon the charge of having stolen a pocketbook containing $32 from Mrs. 0. Alblez. Ho entered a plea of guilty and was sentenced to serve thirty days in jail for the Infraction. Four soldiers from Fort Crook , giving their names as C. P. Nelson , John Patter- eon , James Gray all and Delbert Hartzell , were before Judge Gordon yesterday on the charge of fighting In Goldsmith's saloon. The 'testimony showed that the trouble darted from an argument with the bar tender. Billiard cues flew through the air until Detective Cormack , with "the " assist ance of a couple of bystanders , arrested the . entire party. U was a bloodless affair that Hartzell paid $5 and costs for , as the others were discharged. The soldiers returned to the police court . yesterday afternoon nnd lodged a complaint against the bartender , Charles Cummlngs , whom they accuse of assaulting Nelson. Marx Hermsen ot Bennlngton , Neb. , told the police yesterday afternoon how ho had 7 been fUmflammed out ot 235 chickens by a smooth talking peddter and he Is willing to pay $10 reward for Information leading to hlo apprehension. Hermeen Bays the ped dler rame to his house and got the chickens i , for which he was to pay $43. Ho left a package as security and was to return the next day to pay for his purchase.

MOTHER OF THE BABY FOUND Child Abandoned ta the Old Church yard AVn that of Hannah John- ion , au Unmarried Girl. The history of the babe which was found In the old churchyard at Nineteenth and Cass streets on December 2 has finally been solved. The mother of the child was Hannah Johnson of 1316 Capitol avenue. The cor oner found that the child was born alive aud if it had been given proper care would have lived. Instead the child was carried to the old churchyard by the mother of the girl and deserted to Its fate. When confronted with the evidence of her act Miss Johnson attempted to lay the blame at the door of another. She told how her mother had taken the child away and then accused a young man who hu borne an excellent reputation of being its father. She goes no further than this , not Impli cating him in the disposal of her infant. No arrest has b ea made. ONLY FOUR FOUND GUILTY End of ths Exposition Contempt Oaso in Judge Scott's ' Court. FINE AND RESTITUTION ORDERED Conrt MnlcU Montgomrrr , Wattle * , Wadler and Hred and Order * Them Confined Until III" Jnditraent In SntUflccl. During noon hour yesterday Judge Scott rendered his decision In the exposition con tempt case. He ordered Carroll S. Mont gomery , the general counsel of the exposi tion , durdon W. Wattles , the president , S. 11. Wadloy , the superintendent of the De partment of Concessions , and A. L. Heed , the manager of the concessions department , to ray a fine each of $200 and tbo costs ot the caie , to make restitution to the Streets of Cairo of $30.013 with Interest from No vember 1 , and to be confined In close cus tody until they comply with the order of the court. All the other defendants were discharged , the court saying there had bean no evidence against them. A motion for a new trial Is to be argued this morning , and In the event of It being denied an appeal will bo taken to the supreme court. The court also announced that ho would maUo an order today at 10 * a. m. dis barring Mr. Montgomery from practice In his court and that be would also appoint a committee on disbarment proceedings. During the morning Stenographer Sutcllffe was observed taking notes outside the court room. Bailiff Kcrr told him not to do eo. He paid no heed to the bailiff. Thereupon complaint was made by the bailiff to the court. The Judge ordered Sutcllffo to pay a fine ot $00 and to be confined in a cell ot the Jail until the further orders of the court , because some time ago , as the court said ; Sutcllffo bad used disrespectful lan guage toward th * court. However , R. B. Hall Interceded and on Mr. Hall inducing Sutcliffe to leave the entrance ot the court room' the Judge recoiled his order before his reporter had time to complete the transcription of It. Emll Lenny , the confidential man of the Streets of All Nations , Bays the amount ordered as the restitution covers the period between July 16 and October 20. Preparation * for Appeal. At the same hour that Judge Scott will be making his disbarment order this mornIng - Ing , as threatened yesterday , against Car roll B. Montgomery , the latter will be in Lincoln filing a transcript of the entire ex position contempt case and giving a super- sedeaa bond for an appeal to the supreme court. Mr. Montgomery went to Lincoln last night. A bond for each of the four defendants and one for the exposition have been pre pared with E. W. Nash , Guy C. Barton and J. H. Mlllard as sureties , BO as to be ready , A copy ot the decree as agreed upon by Messrs. Hall and Mahoney was submitted to Judge Scott last night for his signature. Before Mr. Montgomery left separate mo tions for a new trlai were filed with the clerk of the district court in behalf of Messrs. Wattles , Reed , Wadloy and Mont gomery and another , somewhat differently worded , for the exposition company. They contain a long list of reasons for a new trial. Particularizing that the information filed in the contempt case was sworn to by Iclllo Nlncl ot the Streets ot Cairo , October 29 , 1898 , they assert that the court was without jurisdiction and enumerate a lo ot errors and IrregularKIes , among othei things the forcing of testimony by the coun from the witnesses without giving the de fense an opportunity to object and his abuse ot discretion generally. They set up in an itemized manner sev eral statements to the effect that the hold ings , findings and Judgment were not BUS tatned by the evidence and were contrary to law , that Judge Scott had no jurisdiction to grant the restraining order and the in junction , and that the penalty imposed is unusual , excessive , unjust and unlawful Finally they call attention to the fact that long prior to the contempt proceedings In question the Oriental Exhibition company had brought a suit against Oaston Akoun and Mardoche Zltoun of the Streets of Al Nations , Abraham L. Reed , S. B. Wadley and the exposition company with the same object , notwithstanding which the court allowed Akoun , Zltoun , Mrs. Zltoun , Isaac Bonyakar and Khalll Nelmy to testify and to go free without trial or prosecution of any kind. In behalf of the exposition company the vacation of the findings , decision and judg ment Is moved and a new trial Is asked for the reason that it , as a defendant , was never arraigned or tried , nor were there any proceedings -whatever against it ; that Scott was without jurisdiction and had no authority to find against it tor any viola tion of the restraining order ; that there was no evidence against it , and that the penalty Is excessive and unjust. A separate motion for the exposition company was necessary because the order of restitution for the $30,013 la made against Messrs. Wattles , Reed and Wadley officially as well as personally.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS. In the numerous suggestions offered for amendments to the charter not one pertalno to the care of the streets at this time of the year. Mayor Ecsor recommends that some provision be made to repair paved streets at the expense of the general pub lic after abutting property owners had once paid the original coat of the paving , curb * ing and guttering. The streets at the pres ent time are In a deplorable condition nnd there Is no fund to draw upon to pay for the removal ot the accumulation of mud and snow. Very little , If anything , remains la the street repair fund , ae the levy for this purpose , which was available last August , lias been expended In leveling and repairing the unpavcd streets In all parts of the city. In the business portion of the city great banks of snow thrown un by the sweeper * used by the street railway company still remain. To these plica the snow scraped from tbo sidewalks has been nddcd and in eome places It Is almost impossible to reach the curb line with n team nnd wagon on account of great piles of Ice , snow nnd mud. Business men would like to sec this stuff carted away , but there Is no money at hand to pay for the work , and the Ice and snow will have to remain where It la until it melts in tbo spring , for no relief can be expected from the' city officials. An Increase In the street repair fund might bo recommended with the proviso that a certain portion was to be reserved for the purpose of paying the cost of winter work on the streets. As a rule , the street repair fund Is depleted scon after It Is avail able on account ot the large amount ot work needed on the unpavcd streets. Some city ofilclals eccm to think that If a little more forethought was used in the handling ot this fund moro good might be accomplished and a small sum saved out for use during the winter months. , AI1 work performed by the street commis sioner Is now and always has been done by day labor. This Is expensive and it has been suggested that a great saving might bo made "by purchasing a road machine and a team of horses. Such a machine In the hands of a competent man could repair more un pavcd streets in a day than the present force in a week , and at much less cost. Mayor Ensor has an idea that a street sweeper ought to bo purchased and the same team used to haul the road machine could be utilized on a street sweeper morning and night as occasion might require. A road machine would cost the city $300 or possibly $400 ; the latter sum would In clude a work team. It is asserted that with a competent man at the head of the street department a sweeper and grader might be worked EO as to give larger returns for the money expended 'than ' under the present system. No Faction * In Sliclit. Very little Interest seems to bo taken among the commission men at the Live Stock exchange In the meeting to bo held next Monday for the purpose of nominating officers ot the exchange. These officers are nominated In December of each year and are voted on at a meeting held in January. One well known member of the exchange said yesterday that all ot the commission men were too busy just now to pay any at tention to the nomination ot officers and It Is inferred from tills ( hat there will be no opposition to the ticket placed In nomina tion. Sometimes the ( exchange splits into ( actions and each ( action nominates Its officers and the batUo'ls waged on election day. At the present tlme > most of the mem bers are at peace with one another and it Is inferred that the factions prominent in the past have burled the hatchet. Moro Cottnire * . R. C. Strohlow of Omaha is making ar rangements to erect a number ot residences in this city as soon as the weather will per mit. Plans have been drawn for houses In different parts of the city. Four cottages are to bo built at Twenty-fourth and S streets , one at Twenty-seventh and L streets , two at Twenty-sixth and K streets , and two at Twenty-fourth and A streets. The houses at A street are to cost in the neighborhood of $2,500 each while the others will average about $1,000. MfiKlc City Gonnlp.
