Unices City Attorncr Conncll receives by
f o'clock tonight a tclccrani Irom General
Solicitor Kelly of the Colon Pacific rail
road etatlDR that the contract between tbRt
company and the city Is satisfactory to the
directors of tbo road, the ordinance cm
bodying ihls matter will not be Introduced
at the council meeting tonlpht.
Mr. Kelly Is now In New York City,
mbere he wont to carry before tho direc
tors nt tbo Union Pacific, this contract. He
left Omaha last Saturday, and said ho
would apprise Mr. Conncll of results by
wire. The city attorney does not wish the
council to pass on the matter unless It
has met tbo approval of theso directors, no
he will hold it back awaiting news from the
rust.
The contract, meanwhile, lb all complete.
At the last It was doclded lo omit all ref
erence to the J40.000 of taxes duo discov
ered by Treasurer HennlnRs, theso bclni:
left by mutual agreement for spoclal set
tlement botwecn the parties. A consider
able portion of them the railroad will not
be compelled to pay.
J. H. McCulloch. representing the owners
of a strip of land fronting on tho west side
of Eleventh strcot and extending from the
alley Just north of Nicholas street north to
the south sldo of Cunningham's addition,
says bat the ordinance now beforo the
council providing for opening an alley
through that section is.merely tho first step
in a Bchcme of the Omaha Ilrldge nnd Ter
minal Railroad company to secure free right
of way from Cunningham's addition down to
the National Roofing company's shops, about
C.OO feet to the south.
This statement made by Mr. McCulloch to
the members of the council In general com
raltteo meeting yesterday afternoon created
a considerable stir, nnd as u result the
ordinance will not come up for third read
ing' and final passage tonight, us planned,
but will be held one week more by the com
mittee on street improvements and via
ducts, to which It was referred. The com
mittee will make thorough Investigation of
the representations of Mr. McCulloch be
foro reporting to tho council on the meas
ure. Tho proposed alley would be 1,320 feet
long, running north and south through the
entire' strip of land and sixty-nine feet
from Eleventh street. The property reaches
back 135 feet from Eleventh street. It Is
practically unoccupied, save for the Na
tional Roofing company's plant, which is
only a third of the way south from the Cun
ningham addition to the proposed south end
of the alley.
Mr.' McCulloch Bald that he could see no
lustlce In putting an alley down through
there for tho mere convenience of this
roofing concern. He said that the Omaha
Bridge and Terminal line had made a con
tract with the National Roofing company
;o furnish shipping facilities, When the
oad was enjoined from using Its tracks
blch are laid down the proposed line of
ihe alley it conceived this scheme to get
In there and fulfill Its contract. After get-
ttng the city to make an alley there It would
then have another ordinance providing tor
granting It right of way through the alley.
Property owners along Thirty-third street
between Cass and Hurt streets who wish
that portion brought to the established
grade are finally to bo satisfied. The rc
fusal of the owner of 315 feet of frontage
between Webster and California streets to
sign a petition to this effect has been an
obstacle to the accomplishment of their
desires, but at the committee meeting of
the council It was determined to put In
operation ways and means tonight that will
tesult In the grading of that street by the
city within ten days at the most.
This Is all because City Engineer Rose
water announced to the council yesterday
afternoon that n petition was not neccn
sary In such a case as the one In hand,
that the city could proceed with ap
pralscrs and arrive At the damage and do
the work.
So now O. S. Rcnawa and several more
people along that street arc JubllHnt and
all the more so because they were turned
down by ihp council at Its meeting of
last Tuesday night. At that time Mr,
Trostler Introduced a resolution asking
that the people between Burt ond Webster
streets be alloncd to grade that much of
Thlrly-thlrfl street at their own expense,
They had despaired of persuading the peo
ple along the remainder of the three blocks
to v in with them.
The city engineer advised against allow
Ing this, as the rest of the section needed
more grading than this, so the burden of
expense would be unequally divided when
the rest of the people come to (irade their
part at their own cost. He said It would be
also establishing a bad precedent.
On the strength of this statement Mr.
Trostler withdrew his resolution and on
the strength of that withdrawal G. S
Rcnawa, representing those along tliBt one
block who WHnt the grading so much, was
before the council in the afternoon in his
war paint. As a result of his efforts Mr.
Rosewater promised to draw up an ordi
nance providing for (trading the whole
three blocks by appraisement and this
measure will be Introduced and read the
first and second times tonight. Moreover,
as the property owners are In a great
uurry to get It done, tho councilroen of
fered to have a special meeting at any
time after today to pass the ordinance on
third roadlng, so the graders could get to
work without waiting until the meeting
next week.
So now all that Mr. licnawa need do is to
rustle from these people the $35 to pay the
appraisers and have it on deck In time for
the check to go in pinned to the ordinance
tonight.

The reported signing of Pitcher Dlneen
by the Boston club of the American brought
up the question of the blacklist, but the
It took two meetings last night for the
Board of Education to decide that it wanted
the heat In the new High school building
to be maintained night and day to assist
in drying the new walls and the plastering.
The progress of the peculiar course of
events was dramatic and the feature of It
all was that eight members of the board
votJ to deny the man who has been keep
ing the fires going during the night his pay
and then after the regular meeting was ad
journed besought President Hayward to
coll a special session, at which they voted
to allow the money.
The situation arose over a report of the
committee on heating and ventilation,
which was read by Chairman Robert Smith,
as follows-
This monev usked was for the tiayment
of the extra man needed to keep the fires
going at night utter me npuuir unv en
gineer Ht the High school. Mr. Kltzgenild.
Iind quit work for the day. This had been
done for n week tiast. as Architect 1. a ten
ser lmd snld the beat was absolutely neces
sary to the welfare 01 tnc butiatng. in me
emergency the heating and ventilation
committee hod assured Mr. ntzgerald
that the board would pnv lor tno extra
man needed If he would hire htm.
Barnard. Wood and Howard attacked this
proposition on the ground thrt the pro
ceedings had not been regular and that
they didn't care to allow the pay until they
had Investigated. Wood moved to refer tho
report back to the committee from which
it came and the votes of Barnard, Christie,
Howard, Theodore Johnson. W, r. John
son. J. J. smith, stutmenciori ana wooa
tarried tho motion. Punkhouser. Levy,
Maynard, Robert Smith and Hayward voted
against It.
-All right," retorted Mr. Smith, "this
committee has done its best for the good
of the new building. Now you have turned
us down for the pay of this extra man,
who Is absolutely essential, and I shall
stop the heat Immediately after this meet
ing and dismiss the man, as I do not be
lieve he should work for nothing, nor yet
that the Janitor up there should be com
pelled to pay him."
That was all that was wild at the time
and the business of the meeting proceeded.
Meartwhllc Architect Latenset circulated
around the room, urging upon the eight
the fact that the building would be very
seriously damaged If the heat were stopped.
Ilnh Smith Mand I'at.
The upshot was tlifct when the meeting
adjourned the eight, minus Wood, who went
home, gathered around Smith and exhorted
him not to turn off the heat.
"Why," 1 must." said Smith. "You fel
lows wouldn't pay the man I've got there."
The seven said they had not understood
what It meant and the building committee
said that It would keep up the heat Itself.
Finally the seven persuaded Mr. Hayward
to call a special meeting at once, so they
might "get an understanding of the matter."
Members were pulled In from the ele
vators and hallways and Robert Smith
moved that JG0 a month extra be allowed
Janitor Kltrgerald from November IS to
February 1 to pay for extra help and every
member present voted for It.
Then followed some discussion as to how
the building was getting along. Mr. I.alen
ser and others giving Information on the
subject. It was disclosed that the pressure
had been too high In the boilers once or
twice and that one boiler wall was cracked
as a consequence. W. F. Johnson Intro
duced a resolution Instructing tho com
mittee on buildings and property to In
vestigate these boiler walls and report to
the board. This was adopted.
A recommendation from the heat and
ventilation committee granting recognition
to the Engineers' union and advising en
gineers In the schools to affiliate with such
organization, It feasible, was adopted after
a hot fight. In which the vote stood 7 to 6.
Not since 18H8 have High school seniors
conducted their own graduation exercises.
Their only share In the performance has
been to appear In their best clothes and

resolution passed last night by the board:

The results of the meeting of the High
school committee In the afternoon appeared
again In n further resolution concerning the
attempt to secure arms for the High school
cadets from the government. It was
adopted. It provides that the president and
secretary take the matter up further with
the senator and member of the house from
Omaha along lines which it U hoped may
avoid tho difficulties heretofore encoun
tered. W F. Johnson, chairman of the commit
tee, stated that the members still hoped to bo
able to get the equipment required from the
government without engaging the United
Stales army officer as professor in military
training which the War department said
must first be done.
