ENJOINS MOTOR COMPANY
Board of Park Commissioners Goes Into
Injunction Business.
ENTRANCE TO FAIRM0UNT BLOCKED
Illicit .side Is Ilrstnilneil from DnliiK
Anything tit Hemovc the Dirt or
Construct it I'ltMsulilc
ItondMiiy.
Another kink In tho litigation between tho
Board of Park Commissioners and the motor
company over the removal of tho dirt now
obstructing tho entrance to Falrmount park
was taken yiatcrday morning, when tho
board commenced Injunction proceedings
against tho motor company nnd secured a
temporary restraining order enjoining It
from removing tho dirt. Attorney Hazelton
for tho board also Hied tho lattcr'a answer
to tho Injunction suit brought by the motor
company against tho park commissioners
and In which tho company secured a tem
porary order restraining tho commissioners
from grading down tho earth now In tho cut
or making a driveway over It.
The park commissioners take substantially
tho same ground both In their petition and
in their nnswer to the suit of tho motor
company. They set up that before tho dirt
fell tho cut was so narrow nt the bottom that
the tracks of tho motor company practically
occupied tho entire breadth of the road and
mndo it useleta for any other purpose; that
It Is Impracticable and Impossible without
the expenditure of a vast slim of money to
maintain tho cut at its former depth so
that it will be safe for tho use of the pub
lic. The earth which has fallen has tilled
tho cut at ono point to a depth of fifteen
feet and the commissioners assert thnt it
can bo leveled off and n road made over It
which will bo at an Incline or grade of not
to exceed 7 per cent, which will mako nn
easy and practicable roadway either for
travel on foot, for ordinary vehicles or for
the tracks of tho motor company. Further,
that by go lovellng and Ailing the cut with
dirt which has fallen It will be posslblo for
tho banks to be sloped nt a reasonable ex
pense, so that they will not cave In. Also
that the road can be thus tnado broad
enough to bo used by tho motor company and
the general public nnd will te a great nd
vantngo In going to and coming from the
park.
The board states that In contemplation of
making this Improvement It notified the
motor company on May 18 last to remove Its
tracks from tho cut, but that tho latter
failed to do so. In conclusion It asks that
tho motor company bo restrained from re
moving tho dirt or in any way Interfering
with same.
In Its answer to tho motor company's suit
tho park commissioners set up In addition to
tho foregoing that tho cut in question is
solely vithln tho limits of Falrmount park;
that tho same Is not a public road or high
way and Is wholly under ho control of tho
rark board.
Attorney Hazelton stated yesterday that
It was not tho deBlro or Intention jot tho
park commissioners to oust tho motor com
pany from entering tho park or to compel It
to removo Its tracks from tho cut. At the
samo lime Mr. Hazelton failed to explain
how the motor company could reach Its
tracks, which at present Ho burled beneath
the mass of fallen dirt, unless permitted to
remove It. This tho tomporary injunction
secured by tho park commissioners yester
day restrains tho motor company from doing.
No dato for tho hearing wns fixed by tho
court, although Attorney Hazelton asked
that It bo act for as early a date us possible.

Board of Education as n slto for tho new
High school building stato tint tho su t
commenced last winter to enforce payment
by tho district for the tract will be pross
cutcd at tho next term of the dlstM;t cour
Tho prlco agreed upon was $8,000 and fir
this amount suit was brought, but In addi
tion now Interest will bo asked from tho
date of the first selection of tho n't, which
was In April, 1S09. Tho suit was lroight In
tho uame of Simon Casady of Dcs MoI'Joj.
So far no appeal has been taken from tbo
action of the board of Juno 22 In select ng
tho old High school slto on Glen nvcnuo and
there Is no talk of any being taken. The
general opinion Is that the board did not
when voting for this pile jerlously lnt nd ti
build tho new High school thero nnd It Is ex
pected to rescind Its action and se'tle on
some locntion more centrally rltuntcd. u
It nsscrted that thero Is a gravo question
whether tho board has tho tight to build
the now school there, as nt tho time that
the bonds were voted tho proposition con
tn'ned tho proviso that tho old HUh tcho l
building should bo retained for a "nrd srhool
and attorneys say that tho grounds go with
tho building.
It has been suggested as a rolutlnn of tho
question that tho board purchase tho prop
erty at tho head of Willow avonue belong
ing to tho Folsom estate nnd tl'on grad"
down tho High school priurds Pd'olnlng : nd
this would plv? tho new Hl-h hool epao'm n

derstood that nt least three cf tho niemh-ri
of the board are In favor of this plan. The
next regular meeilng of tho board will bo

Principals HrKcnitc the Stories Told
on Thursday of the Drill.
Thero were no now developments yester
dny Indicating that either of the motor
companies had sold out to the other. W.
S. Heed of tho Suburban company hold to his
statement mndo Thursdny that his company
had bought out tho brldgo lino nnd said n
day or so would show his assertion to bo
correct.
G. W. Wattles was In tho city In tho nftcr
non nnd was closeted with Mr. Itccd In the
offices of tho Suburban company for several
hours. Mr. Wattles reiterated bis former
statement thnt no such deal as claimed by
Mr. Heed had been consummated and said
ho was sorry to havo to contradict Mr.
Heed.
Attorney Gcorgo F. Wright of tho old
motor company also Bald there were no
dovolopracnts.
Cashier Hnnnan of tho First National
bank likewise said thero was nothing new
In tho situation, but hinted, with a knowing
wink of tho left optic, that "something
might drop In tho courso of tho next
twenty-four hours." To uso Mr. Hannan's
pet expression, nobody doubts but that there
Is "n hen on" nnd a consolidation of the
brldgo company and the Suburbnn company
Is confidently looked for by tho pcoplo of
Council Bluffs.
The Suburban company Is continuing to
lay track on South Sixth street and yester
day tho crossings over tho Mllwnukco nnd
Burlington tracks on Sixth Btrcot were
put in. The company also strowed several
loads of mils along West Broadwny, be
tween Pearl and Sixth streets.
What deemed to bo of significance and
pointing to a consolidation of tho two com
panies is tho fact that tho Suburban com
pany has dono no work nt its power houso
In east Omaha for tho last four weeks.

A sudden gust of wind, a hat blown off,
somo chaff aimed at tho man who lost tho
headgear ond whose resentment of tho
pleasantry led to the exchange of more
or less unparliamentary language, were tho
prime factors responsible for tho nppcaranco
of Nick Englo and Herman Bernstein, bet
ter known to locaj fame ns "Mogy No. 2,"
boforo Justlco VIcn yesterday to nnswer to
tho chargo of "engaging In an affray on tho
public streets."
Nick Englo, nn aged Teuton, with a tem
per easily aroused, was standing at tho cor
ner of Pearl street and Broadway Thursday
afternoon when his hat was blown across
tho street. Bernstein ceased long enough
from selling papers to laugh at him. Englo
got mad and followed the news vendor Into
Percgoy's cigar store. An exchango of com
pliments followed until Zacharlah Taylor
essayed tho role of peacemaker. Ho was told
In Innirmip-n mnri forrlhlr. than nolltn to
R0 (o a p,nM whcro ,no nrc8 aro nlwayg
raging and attend to his own business. This
made Taylor soro nnd bo rushed off to tho
poltco station to file nn Information ngalnat
Englo and Bernstein for using ob6Ccno and
profane language. Taylor did not receive
much sympathy or assistance from the po
lice, so he hiked to Justice VIcn, who was
moro accommodating, nnd Issued n warrant
for tho arrest of the disputants.
When tho case camo on for hearing yes
terday afternoon, it was nt once shown that
tho "affray" as termed In tho Information
took placo In tho cigar storo and not on the
public street and on motion of tho assistant
attorney tho defendants were ordered dis

The amended nrtlcles of Incorporation of
tho Savings. Loan nnd Building association
havo been approved by tho secretary of
stato and were returned hero yesterday.
Tho necessity of amending tho nrtlrlcs of
Incorporation wan caused by tho enactment
nt the recent session of tho legislature of
tho now loan and building assoclntlon law.
Tho principal amendments mndo necessary
by tho new law wcro the reduction of the
rnto of Interest charged borrowers on stock
from 10 to 8 per cent; tho right of stock
holders to withdraw nt nny tlmo without
forfclturo (formerly stockholders on with
drawing beforo their stock reached maturity
had to do so at a discount); mortgagos can
now be paid off at any tlmo nnd stock cashed
In (hcretoloro the mortgage rnu until stock
matured nnd paid It off).
Tho new law practically transforms the

ferred to him on account ot Us knowledge
ot tho fact that ho was already lnvojtlsat
Ing. Treasurer of Stato Herrlott lutro ueed
a resolution piovldlng for the appointment
of a commlttu of tho council to make the
Investigation. Secretary Dobson suggested
that courtesy would indicate that as tho
governor wns engaged In this business be
be permitted to finish It and roport. To thl
end he Introduced a substitute resolution
which was adopted by a vote of 3 to 1,
Treasurer Herrlott voting In tho negative.
This substltuto resolution follows:
Whcrcns, The nllceed misconduct In the
ofllce of C. T. Jones, clerk of tho supreme
court, has been formally brought to tho at
tention of tho cxeeutlvo council nnd Is a
matter which tho chief cxeeutlvo of the

and,
Whcrcns, The governor of the state hns
the matter under consideration; therefore
bo It
Resolved, Thnt we take no notion In the
matter until the Governor shall have com
pleted his Investigation.
Tho Herrlott resolution, which waB voted
down, was as follows:
Itesolved, by tho executive council. That
n commltteo bo appointed by the executive
council to muke a thorough examination of
tho books nnd records of tho olllco of the

Instead of "on or after." This makes the

It was tho Intention of tho legislature to

c South Omaha News . jj
Ono of the needs of tho reorganize! po-
llco department Is n privnto tcKpnono s li
tem, similar to the patrol boxes In iho in
Omaha aud oihcr cltlei. ThU subjCCi w. s
brought to tho attention of tho city council
couple ot years ngo by John C. Carroll.
then chief ot police, but for lack of funu3
tho project wns abandoned.
At prisent thero Is no means of communi
cating with nil officer on a beat an I tbo
chief or captain cannot keep track ot tho
men as well jb It pairo'men wer.' riq lred tj
eport nt headqunrte s by 'phono eo y hour.
In many lnstancis patro.mon use 'i. bones In
tores or residences In making retorts to tho
central station, but as a general thing ihrse
Hnc3 of communication aro shut oft nt or
midnight and In many Instances valuab o
tlmo Is lost In reporting accldmts or crimes.
It has been suggested that ten patrol
boxeB bo located In various parts of tho
city. Theso boxes could ,be usi d for the
turning In of fire alarms as well as police
calls and their use, it is stated, will savo
tho city a considerable sum of money, ns
ftro alarm boxes are expensive, ccsilng In
the neighborhood of $125 each. In looking
over the ground these locations have been
selected for tho proposed boxes:
Twenty-seventh and L streets, Twentieth
nd Q, Twentieth and L, Th.rty-thlrd and
Albright, Twenty-seventh and Q, Thir
tieth and Q, Twenty-fourth nnd F, Twenty
seventh and N and Twenty-fourth and N.
In this way the city Is fairly well covcre.l
and tho lines can bo run in circuits, thui
greatly reducing tho cost of maintenance.
Tho ontlro system, it is thought, can b;
placed In operation for about $C00 and
maintained after the first year at an annual
expenditure of about $300.
When an officer arrests a prisoner ho Is
compelled to walk to the station with him,
whereas If the patrol box system was used
telephono messago would bring nn officer
In tho pollco rig and the patrolman would
not needf to leavo bis beat for an hour or
more.
Tho gain of ten flro alarm boxes would
mean a great deal to tho department and
the expense, as estimated now, would be
light ns compared with tho cost of ten
Gamewell alarm boxes. It Is undeistood
that Chief of Pollco Mitchell Is heartily In
favor of tho patrol box plan and he doubt
less will recommend It as Foon ns tho finan
cial part of tho proposition Is arranged.

It will probably bo a day or two boforo
Coroner Swanson can arrange for an Inquest
over tho remains of Mrs. Christina Chrl
tlnnson, who wa3 killed nt Morrcll's cros lng
In Albright yesterday. The- corcn r de
sires that tho crew of Missouri Pacific train
No. IS be present at tho Inquest and It will
be necessary to wait until tho telurn tilp
s tnado. Eyo wltncfscs assert that B'voral
poisons tried to warn Mrs. Christiansen rf
her danger, but sho did not herd. An ex
amination by a physician shows thnt thi
was struck squarely over the heart by tin
pilot and that her breast nnd sldo woro
badly crushed.
Somo tlmo ago a man was killed nt this
crossing In a similar manner and tho coro
ner's Jury recommended that a flagman to
nlaccd nt tho crossing. This suggo tion was
compllol with, but tho wntchman was rnahlo
to savo Mrs. Chrlstlnnson yesterday as Fhe
attempted to cross tho tracks about forty
feet south of the regular crossing.
A Jury will bo sworn In today so that the
funeral arrangements will not lie dolayol.
