It Is generally believed by Catholic au
thorities that Omaha Is destined In the
near' filturo to bo the sec of an archbishop.
While there Is at this. time no positive as
surance that Oniiiha Is to be thus elevated
as nn ecleslastlcal center, Indications are
favorable and there Is much enthusiasm
nmonR Catholics throughout this diocese.
It Is generally conceded 'that the cre
ation of a see at Sioux City will take
placn within few months If not within a
few weeks. The bluhops of the province of
Dubuque ui a meetlnn Inst December recom
mended the establishment of a sec nt that
place and the matter Is now before the au
thorities nt nqm.
Archbishop Keatie has mado arrange
ments to so to Home next month, whore he
will probably remain two months. Ho ex-1
pects to receive advices fram the uacred
colleRo ordcrlnK the establishment of tho
diocese of Sioux City before ho leaves for
Europe. If tha'ordci1 does not arrive by the
end of the month' the matter wilt He In
abeyance until Ills- -return from Home.
When the order arrives the bishops of the
province will be called Into council to sub
mit advice and recommendations In tho
matter of thn establishment of the see and
It Is understood thnt these bishops nro
holding themselves In readiness for such
call nt any time. It Is said that the
bishop of Davenport has'wlthdrawn his op
position to the estahlldhmcnt of a sec at
D.s Moines, If t,h bn true and tho see Is
established, In tho mind of high ofllccrs
of the church, It foreshadows, the early
olevntlon of the,8ce'of Omaha, as It will
add two, dloc.escs to the province of
Dubuque, Increasing the work of the nrch
bishop of "the province .to such on ixtcnt
that he will welcome a division of his terri
tory. Illnliiii Home from Hill I li'iiirr,
Illshop Scanned returned yesterdny morn
ing from Hnltlmore, where ho attended tho
ceremonies Inst week, when tho berettn
was conferred upon Mgr. Martlnolll. Ho
says that nt that meeting of tho dignitaries
of tho church no ecclesiastical matters
were discussed mid that he left Ilaltlmoro
with no more knowledge of proposed
chunges In tho church government In
America than he had when he left Omaha,
In view of Omnhn's probable, advancement
to being tho locution of a see, there Is re
newed agitation in favor of n now cathedral.
This question will bo settled by Illshcp
Bcannell probably within the next thirty
days. Tho bishop bellovcs that If there Is
to bo n new cathedral built It must be
started within tho present year, and It Is
possible that within two weeks he may ask
Ihp advice und co-operation of the members
uf thc diocese In this mntter.
If tho new cathedral Is built, and the
probabilities nro strongly In favor of It, It
will cost not less than $100,000, and may
cost twice that amount. Tho diocese of
Omnhn has never had n cuthcdrnl worthy of
tho name, St. I'hllnmenn's church, the pres
ent cathedral, ban been too small for great
functions, and Is primarily a parish church
with llttlo of the lequlrcments of the re
ligious home of the bishop of a diocese so
Important as thai of Omaha. Many of tho
dioceses of the west with n Catholic popu
lation bnlf ns large ns this have cathedrals
which nro n rredlt to them, and tho au
thorities of tho church In this dloceso bo
llevo that the present Is the time to build
a house connnetiBurato with the Importance
of tho diocese.
IIInIiop M'nimrll Tnllm.
In regard to the building of tho new
cathedral, tho bishop said:
"There Is no doubt that Omaha should
have a cathedral. Wo have no place wherein
to hold gatherings and the wealth of thn
dloceso Is such as to well afford the con
struction of such a building. I hnvo taken
no steps tn tho matter beyond informally
discussing the mutter with one or two
persons, but If anything- Is dorio It must
bo begun right away, and I will probably
make up my mind definitely within a few
weeks,"
Asked -ns to tho location of tho pro
posed cathedral, the bishop said that mat
ter hud not been decided upon In fact,
had not bctu discussed. It Is assumed by
those who believe thnt they know more
than others that thn now structure will
be erected near tho site of tho now church
of St. Cecilia, at Fortieth and Hurt strcsts.
Tho bishop further stated thnt the new
cathedral would bo,, built Independent of
any action looking' to tho, sale of the site
of St, rhflomena's,' ns 'he'does not believe
that tho 'time has come to dispose of this
ground, as Its value Is constantly Increas

his honeymoon In tho Omaha Jail, Is a

with his let as a man can woll bo who
lacks the advantago of a suit of clothes.
The Jnl'er hasn't heard a word of com

doctor, was compelled to romo out In tho
corridor and consult with his nttornoy
with nothing on but n suit of sky-blue un
derwear Mid an English box overcoat that
lacked thrte Inches of coming to his knees.
The latter garment had been loaned him
by Sergeant Hudson
When Hue was first enrolled at tho Jail
he wore a natty dress suit, Including a low
cut vest and a cutaway coat, with a hick
In the skirt Just below the' waist line, but
these were taken away from him yester
day by the man from whom he had rented
them. The man said the back rent
amounted to $7.10. He had leased the
suit to Hue upon tho occasion of his wed
ding and not to enable him to shine at an
engagement tn the city Jail, so ho took
tho garments away without offering so
much as a barrel in their place.

SEEKS PERMISSION TO GRADE

Council.
Tho Metropolitan Cnblo Hallway com
pany, which operates the Dundee line, has
asked permission from the council to grade
Dodgo street botwecn Thirty-sixth street
and Thirty-ninth avenue.
A communication embodying this request
was presented to tho council at Its meet
ing last night, Tho company offered to
bear all the expense of the work and to
settle all claims for damages Incurred by
thj change of grade, A check for 25 was
enclosed for the payment of appraisers.
Tho rompnny desires, so tho communica
tion states, to extend Its car lino In an
easterly direction from Forty-first street
along Dodgo street. Robert W. Patrick,
secretary of the .-company, was present at
last night's meeting, but refused to dis
cuss tho extension,
"It Is nn attempt on the par.t of tho
Metropolitan Cnblo Hallway company to
secure recognition at tbu hands of tho
council," remarked a city official. "The
company's franchise Is void because of a
failure to comply with all Its provisions."
Tho communication was referred to tho
committee on street Improvements find via
ducts. Tho local union of the International
Union of Steam Engineers requested the
removal of tho pity bolI.r Inspector on
account of nlleged failure to enforce the
city ordinance, which stipulates that all
engineers operating steam pants In public
buildings shall hold licenses from the city.

A dlstlnuulshed nnnearing young colored
man, woll dressed and with dignified benr
I lug, has recently given tho upper circles of
I Omaha's colored population n decided shock.
He went undor the nnmo of Dr. Frnncols
Droletto nnd said he was a graduate of Dur
ham university, England. Further, he al
leged ho was a communicant of tho Eplsco
pnl church, tho son of a prominent physic
Inn of Morocco, the traveling correspondent
of tho Hevlow of Hovlews, a glabetrotter
with a limitless letter of credit and tho
holder of a commission from tho United
States government to ascertain tho .number
and disposition of the republic's colored
population.
Ho had, moreover, an Imposing title Indi
cated by Initials after his name, and tho
effect of It all was that ho fairly took tho
breath of tho exclusive congregation of
the Church of St. Phillip tho Deacon.
Now that he has gone his victims figure
their losses as follows: Olio forged check
for $12, which Hov. .lohn A. Williams must
mako good; ono 4" suit of clothes stolen
from Guy L. Overall, 2010 Lnko street, and
ono diamond ring nnd one ruby ring stolen
from Mrs. Overall. Tho bogus "doctor,"
who was stopping at tho Overall homo, left
presumably for Chicago last Thursday. Tho
police have sent nut descriptions, but us yet
have not succeeded In locating him.

EDERAL JUDGE CARLAND MAKES RULING
Cnse of ( linrlcn T. Williams AKitlnnt
Omiiliii Wnler Company l Taken
from the ,lnr Court In
terirela I lie l.ntr.
Tho laws of Nebraska provide no com
pensation for tho lost "comfort and society"
of a wife. A suit for her lost services,"
however, has standing tn court.
Charles T. W llllums had brought suit on
tho former grouud against tho Omuha
Water company. Tho case was taken from
tho Jury In tho federal court yesterday
by Judge Garland and dismissed. Uu said
that tho statu statutes provide no redress
for the loss sustained by Williams in the
death of his wife. Mrs. Williams was killed
In tho Patterson block fire and her husband
alleges that a water company employe wua
careless lu his ,uso of matches while ex
amining the meter. The uraount sued for
was $50,000.
Judgo Cnrland ndmltted thnt tho statutes
wero not consistent or equitable on the
point. "If your wlfo had not been killed,"
he said to Williams, "but had been for a
tlmo Incapacitated you would havo had
cause for damage for services lost. Or It
her children had brought an action for tho
loss of maternal attention It would havo
been considered. The lost 'comfort and
society' which you Bpcclfy In your petition,
however, has no claim to damages under
Nebraska statutes."

Fort Smith, Ark., says that the paper ue
famed her character by accusing her of
violence In n graveyard. MIbb Frlzrell was
depleted as uprooting tho tombstone of Etta
Kyso, a cyclone victim, nnd hurling It into
tho river. She was said to havo been as
sisted In tho desecration by two negroes.
Miss Kysc, ns tho facts divulge, was
highly esteemed In Fort Smith and was
closely associated with tho Woodmen of
tho World. Following her death, therefore,
two warring factions of tho order desired
to erect n monument to her memory. Hor
moro tnrdy admirers cnrrled their column
to the cemetery only to find that tho spneo
had been pre-empted by their rivals. Tho

Inter bought In good faith by settlers and

There wns a restriction to tho grant
privilege, however, specifying that tho rail-
rond could not take up lands which bad
been "previously reserved or otherwise dis
posed of by the United States" or had been
nttached by "a pre-emption or homesstcad

The government asserts that tho railroad
violated this clause and that Its titles to u

South Omnhn News.
A meeting of the city council was held
last night under a special call Issued by
Mayor Kelly yesterday afternoon. All
members wero preseat, Including Johnston
and Vansant. Tho primary object of tho
meeting was to assist the South Omaha
Street Fair association by passing an or
dinance giving to tho company the right
to uso portions of the streets and alleys In
the central part of the city for the erec
tion of booths, tents, etc. In thn call this
object was specified, along with a state
ment that other business might be trans
acted. As till members signed the docu
ment, tho meeting took on the appearance
of n regular session and the regular card
was gono through with from top to bottom.
There appeared to be little or no objec
tion to tho ordlnanco giving tho Street
Fair company tho right to use certain por
tions of tho streets and this will undoubt
edly pass at a meeting (o be held Thursday
evening. An ordlnanco which followed
caused all kinds of merriment, as It was
tho most 'ridiculous affair ever perpetrated
upon tho council of South Omahn. It wns
In connection with the street fair and was
evidently druwn by a' person who knows
little or nothing of law and less of the reg
ulations governing cities of this class. This
was evidenced when nt the conclusion of
tho reading Councilman Martin asked who
had recommended the ordinance and the
clerk stnted that It had been .handed to
htm Just before entering the council cham
ber and ho did not know. This ordlnanco
calls for a tax of $.'00 a day for all one
ring circuses, while freaks must pay $50
n day, traveling doctors tho same nmount
and book agents $r0 n week. Tho list Is
too long to go through with, but the In
tent Is evident, The Street Fair company
wants this ordinance passed at tho expense
of tho taxpayers In order to protect tho
street fair concessions during tho fair. As
no member of tho council would sign the
ordinance, ns Is provided In tho chnrter,
tho clerk will take no cognlznncc of It when
It comes to writing up tho minutes on the
Journal.
In speaking of tho matter after the
meeting, ono member of the council said.
"Of nil the fool things over presented hero
this ordlnnnco certainly ought to carry off
tho muffins."
Next In tho streot fair proposition comes
a notice that tho streot fair company will
pay for tho publication of tho ordinance
granting to the company the right to uso
tho ntreets, but It Is worthless also, as
It Is signed by lllank, attorney for tho
company. This means that If the council
passes tho ordlnnnco tho city wljl pay tho
cost of publication.
After getting down to business 'tho coun
cil 'listened to reports from Expert J. M.
Iluchanan In connection with hlsi work on
tho city books. He reported that every
thing was In first-class shapo and gave
columns of figures to substantiate his state
ments. It appears from reports made by tho
building Inspector that property owners In
certain sections of tho city nre fencing
their lots to tho street lino, Instend of con
fining themselves to tho lot line. Tho
mayor stnted that he had ordered this
stopped and the council gavo the Inspector
authority to order tho removal of all
fences which extended over tho lot line.
This matter will be taken up at once by
tho officials and unless tho order. Is com
plied with arrests will follow.
A half-dozen or more liquor dealers who
have paid tho $200 occupation tax filed
protests, which wero rend and placed on
flic, but tho expected ordinance reducing
this tax was not Introduced, so that up to
date the occupation tax of $200 still stands.
Some seventy odd liquor license applica
tions wero read nnd referred to tho license
committee, although out of tho entlro
bunch only seven had paid the license fee
Into tho city treasury. These licenses can
not bo legally acted upon by the committee
until tho money Is paid.
In order to compensate tho plumbing and
building Inspectors whose fees nro now
turned into tho treasury, funds were
crentcd for these ofllclnls. Upon the sug
gestion of Martin $1,000 was transferred
from tho special license fund to tho salary
fund and consequently there will be money
galore around tho city hall todny.
It looks as If thero was going to bo n
decided dlfferenco of opinion between the
authorities In the two Omahns over tho
caring for smallpox patients. Officials In
Omaha have sent down two bills from the
emergency hospital for tho care nnd keep
of smallpox patients who asserted they
wero from South Omaha. One bill Is for
$3j and tho other for something like $60.
The city clerk was Instructed to notify tho
umann ntflclnls that South Omaha would
not be responsible for these patients,
neither would It pay tho bill.
Mayor Kelly appointed W. P. Adklns.
Fred Martin and Ed Johnston a committee
to negotiate with Herman Kountze for the
right of way to tho Missouri river, Tho
appointments wero confirmed by the council.
Five special tax ordinances were read
for the first tlmo nnd referred. Mayor
iveiiy, councilman Johnston nnd a number
of others filed surety bonds, nil of which
wore referred to tho Judiciary ccommlttee.
Another meeting of the council will be
hem on Thursday evening.
I'lxlnif Tiven--Foiirlli Street.
Now that tho street fair Is comliJej on
tho promoters of the project are anxious
to havo Twenty-fourth streot, tho main
thoroughfare of tho city, placed In a pre
Rentable condition. The pavement Is In
bad shape, although Street Commissioner
Clark has been tilling In some of the holeu
with Btono broken at the city rockplle.
Members of the btrcet fair company are
urging tho council to proceed nt once nnd
advertise for bids for repairing the atrect.
If this Is done at once the work can bn
completed beforo the opening day of tho
fair, Last year when the city asked for
bids the amount was so large that tho
municipality made Its own repairs, but the
work has not been entirely satisfactory
The holes existing at that tlmo wore filled
with broken stone and Portland cement,
but tho heavy hauling haH worn away the
cement and scattered tho stone, it was
thought at the lime that tho city would
he saved quit? sum by doing the work.
but considering tho results tho experiment
was not n success.
In Omaha bids ore being put In for
asphalt surface for $1.25 per square yard,
but with tho concrete haso the cost Is
higher. Some of the city officials think that
the rockplle can furnish all of the broken
Btono necessary and that the street com
mlasloner can lay the concrete base, leav
ing room for a top dressing of asphalt at
tba rata mentioned. It audi an arranca
