i Sealskin, Otter and
Persian
Jackets
So nmny Indies ask us, nearly ovory day, "where can you re
commend us to go to a really reliable furrier for sealskin or
other fur garments." This has always been a hard question for
us to answer as there is no business which we know of "except
it may be selling diamonds," where it is so necessary to trust the
linn you are dealing with. From now until about the J Oth of
August, we shall take orders on sealskin, otter and Persian lamb
coats. Ladies who select their garments now can rest assured
that, thoy will get the choicest and best selection of skins to be
found in Xew York. Besides, they will be made by one of the
llnest furriers there, which will insure new and up-to-date styles,
impossible for our local furriers to manufacture.
Our Mr. Nicoll will be in Xew York during August, and every
order will have his personal attention.
Sealskin Jackets, from Slfin.OO to $.'50.00

ROASTS FOR RECREANT BOARD
(Continued from Klrst rage)
fpf3Ci! tliu corporatlotis nt n much lower
percentage than they hive assessed other
proporty owner, they hnvc not sufficient
liitolllKcnce to nerve on tho board. If they
flu know that they have, asucfsed tho cor
poration! at a lower percentage than they
have aseessed other?, then they ought to
ho voted out of ofllco as soon as posslblo.
A commltteo of the Ileal nutate exchange
was assured by different members of the
equalization board that tho corporation
nHHessmcnta would bo put up on an equality
with n-al estato assessments generally, and
f l that tho board has broken faith
with us. I am disgusted.
Henry II. Payne Every dollar of tax
which the equalization board permits tho
corporations to evado Is on additional bur
den on real estate. The way In which
corporations nro being favored by our
assessors and our equalization boards Is
doing more than nny other ono thing to
retard homo buying In this city. It has
como to a pass when an agent who offera
n houso In Omaha for sain Is afraid to
show the prospective purchaser tho tax
bills. Some day these public officials who
allow corporations to escape their Just
sharu of tho taxes will come to a reckon
ing with an Indignant public, and then,
perhaps, wo will get men in office who will
do their duty.
Would I.Ike to liny.
Charles A. Goss All I caro to say Is
that I would llko to buy tho street railway,
tho gas works, tho telephone plant, the
water worka, the oloutriu llKht work, tho
packing house and tho stock yard at the
valuations upon which tho county com
mlssloncrs have based their assessments.
Lawrence Itath Tho action of the com
missioners shows that tho corporations
havo too much Influence with tho county
officials. ,
N. A. Kuhn It seems to bo tho general
opinion that tho big corporations got off
too easily. I think that frnnchlBO corpora
tions, especially, should have been raised a
great deal more. Thoy should bo taxed
according to tho value of their franchises,
which cost them practically nothing. In
stead of only on their property. If they

i Preston H. Myers 1 havo no objection to

! consider It fair and square. But I do think
that the public and Omahn are not getting
a fair dcnl as far as tho corporation values

too low nnd ought to bo raised to the pro

BUNCHING THE BITUMINOUS

Shortly.
CLEVELAND, O., July 1. Tho Leader to
morrow will say: Heforo tlm Arm of tfnn.
tcmber nil of the big companies producing
bituminous coal Will hnve been cnthernl
Into ono organization, similar to the United
btntcs Steel corporation, whoso capitaliza
tion will be enormous, probably second only
to that of the bin Steel trust.
VrAm what can be learned work upon the
nig coat trust hns been under way for a
greater length of tlmo than any of tho other
Industrial combinations.
J. T. Morgan, tho advocate of coalition,
tlrst stnrted In with his coal combination
threo years ngo, making tlm first movements
along tho lino of controlling the products
of the Ohio and West Virginia fields. At
that time ho obtained complete control of
tho mining property In tho ilocklng nnd
sunwneo valleys. In order to glvo an out
lot for his coal he purchased certain rail
road properties and this stnrted the eomhl
nation mania along the line of railway own
ership. Tho proceedings In tho Present rnmhlnn.
tlon nro similar to thoso displayed In tho
formation of tho Steel trust. One year ago
nil of the coal nronertles In ihn Pltinhnri-
district which ship coal to the lake were
collected into one organization, known us
the rittBburg Coal company. About that
same tlmo tho same Interests which rhln
coal from the territory down tho river
rormoa what htiB since been known ns tho
Monongnheln Conl company, tacIi being n
combination of smaller companies, making
an organization of considerable Importance.
The deslro to control othor coal territory
In the same fsshlon. thnt tho larger com
panies might ho easier handled by Mr. Mor
gan, hns led to tho selection In certain
sections of confidential cgents.
Illrtli or the Illinois.
As an outgrowth of this policy an or
ganization was completed In Chicago ten
dayn ago known ns the Illinois Coal com
pany, which owns two-thirds of all of tho
coal land In Illinois and western Indiana.
About the same time It beenmo generally
known that M. A. Hanna and others In this
territory had about completed the ab
sorption of most of the coal properties In
tho Massillon district. This Is expected to
be completed in the next ten days. Tho
West Virginia coal production is virtually
owned by ono company, the Kalrmount Coal
company, which in turn Is tho property of
tho nnltimoro & Ohio rallrood. The other
Interests in tho territory nre all owned
by the Norfolk & Western railroad, tho
Chca.ipeako & Ohio railroad or the Penn
sylvania railroad, all of which, with tho
Baltimore & Ohio railroad, now form prac
tically ono big railroad organization, being
owned by ono company. Now tho Illinois
Coal company, tho Pittsburg Coal company,
tho l'alrmount Coal company, tho Hocking
Coal company aud the Massillon Coal com
pany are all to he collected Into ono big
organization, tho name of which has not
been selected. All of those will bo ope
rated rom ono general ofllco, with, how
ever, auxiliary ofllces In tho Immediate
vicinity of tho property,- qn , ,-
EuiieiuVMx....ii.t oiHcb tn Ciovcland.
In this combination it Is expected that the
Pittsburg Coal company shall bo the cen
tral figure, nround which tho others will bo
grouped.
Along with this organization will go also
the coal docks and fast-loading plants that
nre now owned by tho various coal com
panies, which shall hereaftor inako a part
of the big organization.
The aim of nil this Is to effect a com
plete monopoly of the bituminous coal pro
duction In the territory east of tho Missis
sippi and north of the Ohio and Potomac.
To the accomplishment of this end Mr.
Morgan Is said to havo given himself with
out reserve and will tnko It up as soon as
ho returns from Europe.

Mny He Different.
NEWPORT, It. I.. July 1. Constitu
tion was defeated by Columbia today by
the small margin of forty-eight seconds
In tho first real nice In which tho now
Hcrreschoff yacht has participated. The
contest, from start to finish, was close nnd
at times exciting. Iu the opinion of n
majority of yachtsmen In Newport tonight
Constitution lost through misfortune. How
ever, tho result of today's contest Is far
from conclusive nnd there 13 still much to
be decided as to the relative merits of the
two racers.
The mlshnp to the new boat came about
an hour after the start. Whllo the boats
were on tho second long tack to windward
the clew of the Jib of tho new boat wan
carried away and for some ten minutes
the yacht wns without the use of tho sail.
This accident set Constitution back nearly
a mile, but In spile of this it was able to
get within two minute of Columbia at the
turn nnd cut this lead down on the run
home. This gain wns undoubtedly duo to
the fact that It enmc up In tbo butter wind.
But Columbia did not escapo without
nccldent, for In crossing tho line, In
gybing over the hlg mnlnsall, Its boom
buckled nnd It hud to bo towed to the
city. It will be necessary to sling n new
spar heforo Columbia can race again, but
It l expected It will be In place for a race
Wednesday.
The event today wns tho first of a series
of special races arranged hy tho New York
Yacht club for tho purpose of bringing
the two yachts together.
They Htnrt.
The course was cleared for tho racers
when tho tlmo approached for tho firing
of tho signal gun nnd the breezo came up
from tho southwest Just when it was
wanted. Fifteen miles dead to windward
and back again was tho course signaled by
the flags hoisted on the flagship Colona.
Tho starting gun sent Columbia off at
11:40:31, well to windward and three seconds
In advance. Constitution with a mie burst
of speed camo ou with a rush nnd ran
through Columbia's lee, pointing for a much
higher position than wns expected of It
This did not last long, howovcr. Both
yachts, with big club topsails set and small
Jib topsails hunting for whatever wind
thero might bo, wore making the best of the
breeze. Constitution footed faster than Co
lumbia, but while tho now boat wns going
on mvlft or the wind, It had not tho grip on
tho water tho other boat had. Along star
board tack tho two yachts sailed, both Jog
ging at nn eight-knot gait. Constitution
would not stnnd up ns well ns Its rival by
at least three degrees. When tho time camo
for Constitution to tnck It wns a mooted
question whether It could or could not cross
Columbia's bow. In the Judgment of tho
sharps there wa too largo a gap to leeward
to allow this. But Just at tho moment when
Constitution's helm wns put down, Co
lumbia also came about and both went
over on tho port tnck for n few minutes.
Count Itiillon l.nsrn.
Suddenly the luff of ConstjtrUy-fMg ilh
itself had orfdoutlv carried awny. Down
camo the Jib halyards hy the run, while ft
dozen men climbed out on tho bowsprit to
gather In the slack at tho foot of tho sail.
For ten mlnntcs Constitution, on that
close-hauled stretch, was without the bene
fit of Its Jib. Columbia nil that tlmo was
pointing higher nnd footing faster. When
the sail was In place again Constitution
rapidly forged ahead, making up much of Its
leeway. The outer mark was now In
sight and Columbia got hold of Its true
bearing and made a Judicious hitch to star
board. Constitution n fow seconds later
also tacked, but what It did was a stretch
too far. Tho tlmo nt the outer mnrk wns:
Columbia, 1:24:55; Constitution, 1:20:55.
Thus on tho beat to windward Columbia
defeated Its opponent nearly two minutes,
Iu setting spinnakers Columbia was a trifle
smarter than Constitution. In tho run he
foro tho wind Constitution gained, With
sheets eased off It Is faster than Columbln.
Tho time nt tho finish was: Columbia,
2:32:38; Constitution, 2:33:29.
Thus over tho course of fifteen miles t5
windward nnd back tho elapsed tlmo of Co
lumbia was 2:52:04, whllo that of Constitu
tion was 2:52:02.

California Fio Syiiui Co., illustrate
tho value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to bo

is the ono perfect strengthening' lrtxa-tl-,
cleansing tho system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and feverc
gently yet promptly nnd enabling ono
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
overy objectionaolo quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs

taste, but tho medicinal qualities of tho
remedy are obtal.ied from senna and
