General Manager Samuel ('. Stlckncy of
tho Chicago (Ircat Western railway won
In Council Bluffs a Hhort while yesterday
looking the ground over, although ho unlit
his visit waB not business of any particular
Import. Ho sabl ho wns merely familiar
izing himself with the locality In advance
of tho road's extension Into Council llluffs.
A significant remnrk made by Mr. Stick
ney was (hat tho extension to Council
llluffs would bo given prcferctico to that
to Sioux City. This was tnken to Imply
that work on tho Council Bluffs extension
via Harlan would bo begun and completed
first.
When asked how soon work on tho ex
tension would be begun, Mr. Stlckncy said
earth would bo llylug next April and tha
work would bo pushed right nhcad. "Wo
hope." ho added, "to bo running trains Into
Council Bluffs by tho early summer of
1903." He said the tnntcrlal for the lino
had been contracted for and several of
tho grading contracts let.
In answer to a question as to how tho
Great Western proposed to cross tho river,
Mr. Stlcknev said: "At present I cannot
tell you bow wo will gel Into Omaha, ns It
has not been dctlnltoly decided that wo will
uso tho bridge of tho Omaha Bridge and
Terminal Hallway company, nil reports to
thn contrary notwithstanding. I see that
tin. Tormlnal comnnny Is figuring on In
creasing tho capuclty of Its bridge, In ex
pectation of our road's tislng It, but nothing
definite has been determined by our people.
Tho Union Pacific bridge Is open to us
nnd then again thero Is n bare possibility
that we might uso tho hrldgo of tho motor
company."
Asked if tho Great Western had decided
on tho location of Its yards In this city,
Mr. Stlckncy said that as fur as ho know
It had not. Ho claimed to know nothing
about tho reported option on tho Driving
park, although he admitted that tho prop

Member of Hip Itmiril tlxptnlit Their
llenoii for Vote Fix Date for
HvnrliiK on Other for
pnrntlonn. Just previous to adjournment Tuesday
afternoon the Board of Rcvl6w took up the
assessments of tho Omaha Street Railway
company and the Omaha Gas company.
After a few minutes' discussion It was de
cided to reduce the assessment of tho Street
Railway com any from $327,000, as returned
by tho tax commissioner, tu $175,000, and
that of the gas company from $720,000 to
$3SO.000. Tho figures fixed by the board are
tho same as the assessment for last year.
Tax Commissioner Fleming voted against
the reduction and Members John W. Battln
and Edgar Zabrlsklc in favor of it.
Indignant at the accusations of snap Judg
ment and star chamber proceedings In their
handling of the assessments of tho large
corporations In Omaha, the members of thn
Board of Review yesterday summoned
tho reporters and publicly announced tho
following dates for tho hearing of com
plaints nnd protests and the final adjustment
of assessments by tho board of the big busi
ness Interests:
Omaha Water company, Frldny afternoon
nt 2 o'clock; New Thomson-Houston Elec
tric Lighting company, Thursday afternoon
at 2 o'clock; Nebraska Telephone company,
Thursday nt 3 o'clock; the banks, Thursday
at 4 o'clock.
Four other big interests to be settled
with nre the sugar mon, the cold storage
houses, tho Belt lino and the Omaha Bridge
and Terminal company. No times were set
for them, but they will probably come up
Friday morning.
KxpliiliiliiK Their Vote.
Each member of tho board had nn ex
planation for his vote on last night's action
In reducing tho assessment of tho Omaha
Street Railway company from $S27,000, ns
returned by Tnx Commissioner Fleming, to
$175,000, nnd that of the Omaha Gas com
pa'ny from $720,000 to $3S0,O0O. Mr. Flem
ing, who alone voted against tho reduction,
said:
"I did It beeauso It wns right."
Edgar Zabrlskl, who voted for It, snld
"I voted In regard to these assessments
purely according to tho evidence of values
placed before us, and considering thnt wo
woro doing Justice and equity. Tho corpo
ration representatives hnvo evidence to sup
port their figures, nnd Mr. Fleming ad
vanced nono to support bis stand,"
J. W. Battln, secretary of the board, and
the man who cast tho other vote in favor of
the reduction, said: "Tho Board of Rcvlov
has mado it a practice without exception to
hear complnlntB In tho order In which thoy
nro received and when persons filing tho
complnlnt tiro present. While In my opln
Ion the assessments should be made by the
tax commissioner by December 1 of each
year, the Board of Review was Informed
that the assessments for the Omaha Street
Railway company and the Omaha Gas com
pnny wero not mado until December 9. Tho
next dny a protest wbh duly llled with the
board from each parly, together with V
statement of their properties. There woro
several pooplo waiting to bo heard by tho
board, among them Mr. Edward P. Peck
and others whoso names 1 do not now re
call. When we had regularly disposed of
the other business ahead of these protests
wo took up these complaints and ncted on
them, as wo havo dono In tho caso of all
complaints similarly filed.
"I proposed to set tho hearing for :
o'clock on Wednesday. Mr. Goodrich ob
jected, saying that ho was compelled to
leavo tho city at noon Wednesday and would
not return until after the board adjourned.
So wo considered their cases. There was
no snap action.
"Tho evidence submitted by tho two com
panies, together with their figures and
schedules, which tho board ordered placed
on file, contained tho assessment mado by
the board, which was tho same ns that
fixed by two previous boards of review
und approved by tho boards of equalization
of tho city council.
(inn Company L'iinp.
"In tho case of tho gas company tho evi
dence was that there wero no additions to
Its plant last year, that tho entire plant
could bo put In new for from $800,000 to
$1,000,000, which would warrant an assess
ment of from $320,000 to $400,000. Tho
board fixed it at $380,000. This Is merely
tho assessment on tho personal property.
That on Its real estate is $70,000.
'In considering this assessment the board
considered the evldenco that the price of
gas had not been Increased In Omaha during
tho post few years, while tho prlco of oil,
gns pipes and other material had greatly
Increased; also that tho gas company pays
to tho city $1,600 n year for tho uso of
streets, which no other corporation pays,
and $15,000 a year royalties on tno sale or
gas. So tho moro gas soiu, tno greater is
tho revenuo to tho city.
"Tho evldenco nlso showed that tho gas
company paid In taxes moro than 9 per cent
and nearly 10 per cent of their entire grosB
receipts.
"Tho board considered the franchises as
Included In tho assessment, winch Is 40 per
cent or tno vaiuo oi tno property. ino
franchises aro not perpetual nor exclusive,
and each year thoy grow less valuable, as
thoy grow shorter. So the franchises aro
worth less now than last year."

The first assessment of the Street Rail

missioner was reached as follows: The totnl
stock Is $ri,000,000; bonds aggregate $2,000,-

Incident to tho transaction of somo pri
vate property assessment business with the
Board of Review yesterday afternoon Mr
Hormnn Kountzo took occasion to excoriate
that body for Its action In reducing tho
assessment of tho Omaha Gns company nnd
tho Omaha Street Railway company on
Tuetday.
Out of about fiOO Items of taxation Mr.
Kountze had four complaints to register
Ho said, however, that If he were assessed
on the basis of those two corporations he
would not bo paying as high by half on
any of it.
"It Is n shame," said Mr, Kountzo, "and
nn outrage on the real estate mon nm!
others In this city for thnso assessment
to be reduced as they were. Those figures
on tho street rnllwuy company wero to
tally wrong. And I suy that, despite the
fact that I am a stockholder In that com
pany, and that I draw dlvldcmU from It.'
Well. Mr Goodrich submitted his cat-
...i.tin n ih slock resulting in the ns-
scssment which we established," suggested
n momber of the board. "Here are his
flcures." and ho handed to Mr. Kountve tho
rnlctilAtlon '.submitted by Mr. Goodrich with
tho protest on tho street railway assess
ment returned by Tax Commissioner Flem
ing.
Then Mr. Kountze was In clover. Ho pro
ceeded relentlessly down tho page, Inking
up different statements of stocks or bonds
or Interest given and denouncing them as
Incorrect. After he had torn tho calcula
tion Into llguratlvo strips Mr. Battln of
the board suggested that It might be well
to have President Murphy of the street
railway company called In to argtio tho
matter.
"I nm willing to meet Mr. Murphy on
this question any time," said Mr. Kountzo
and the Incident closed,
No business of any Importance wns trnns-
ncted by the board yesterday afternoon.

eiKilnti, Tho reduction In the assessment of the
street railway and gas companies from tho
valuation reported by the tnx commissioner
wns the chief ihemo for discussion before
the meeting of the Renl Estato exchano
yesterday nnd thero wns but one sentiment
expressed, nnd that was tho exchange was
displeased at the action of the Board of Re
view.
Tho question was brought up by n motion
of A. P. Tukoy calling for the appointment
of a committee to Investlgnto tno matter
and report to the next meeting, J. W.
Lytlo desired to hnvn n resolution pnssed
declnrtng thnt the exchange censured tho
board for its action, but this was opposed
by Mr. Tukcy, who desired the matter In
vestigated before the body took final action.
The matter was discussed generally nud
C. C. Georgo moved us n substitute that n
special committee bo appointed to Investi
gate and report nt a special meeting of tho
exchange to be held Friday afternoon. In
discussing this motion W. L. Selby said
thnt he believed the Board of Review had
been appointed with the object of having
the assessment reduced nnd that Tax Com
missioner Fleming wns nwnre thnt his as
sessment would bo reduced by tho board
when It was mado. He stated that when
he hnd nppcared before the commissioner
on nnother occasion he had advised that
officer to make an lncreaso of 30 per cent
In the assessment, confident that such an
Increnso could be made to stand when n
larger Increase would certainly bo reduced
Mr. Fleming, In splto of advice, choso the
latter course, and while tho reduction wns
greater than ho probably had expected, ho
had no ono to blame but himself. Ho
thought It Into In tho day to appoint n com
mlttee on tho subject, as It would bo at
tempting tho impossible.
Tho dlsctififllon resulted In the appoint
ment of n committee In harmony with tho
motion of Mr. George, tho committee con
sisting of F. D. Wead, C. C. George, C. P,
HnrrUon, Byrou Hastings, Charles Saunders
nnd s. A. nostwicK.
Tho regular tax committee, consisting of
W. L. Selby. J. S. Knox nnd A. P. Tukcy,
wns Instructed to Investlgnto tho question
of a change In tho law which will permit
tho counties and cities to sell land upon
which delinquent taxes havo accumulated
until they exceed the value of tho land nnd
to nrrango for compromises In such cases.
On motion of B. R. Ball tho special com
mittee appointed at this meeting was in
structed to report upon the assessed voluii
tlon of tho land belonging to the chartered
corporations, ns well as upon the value of
their personal property.
Certain appraisements requested upon
various city lots were passed over until
tho person rsquestlng such appraisements
should be present.
Tho exchange adjourned to meet Friday
at noon.

Judgo Estello granted B. S. Allison a tom-
porary injunction which prevents the Omaha

Brldgo and Terminal company from opornt
lng n track which It has on land bolonglng
to tho plaintiff. Tho land In controversy Is
n strip fourteen feet wide nnd 1,34!". feet In
length, lying nlong the bottom north of
Nicholas street. It belonged to Allison
orlglnnlly nnd wns sold to tho Omnhn Bridge
and Terminal company, Tho company ro
fined to pay a mortgage Mr. Allison held on
tho strip, and In tho federal court tho mort
gage wns foreclosed and the property bid In
by Mr. Allison. A fence which Mr. Allison
built about the land was torn down nnd tho
company continued to uso a track which It
had laid along tho strip.
In granting the temporary Injunction
Judge Estello said that ho wished It to bo
understood that he merely ordered tho com
pnny to cease using the track for switching
purposes and did not mnko any ruling pro
venting tho company from taking up Its
track. Ho declared that tho ownership ot
tho track must bo settled In nnother suit.
Although tho Judgo declnrcd that It was
clear to hlm that Mr. Allison Is tho owner
of tho land, ho stated that tho ownership
of tho rails and tics laid on the land must
bo settled In court.
Attorneys for tho company nttcmptcd to
get Mr, Allison's lawyers to consent to u
modification of the Injunction In such n
munner that tlio company might uso tho
track until a decision Is had concerning tho
ownership of tho track, hut tho plaintiff's
attorneys refused to listen to such a prop-
osltlon.
Tho company's lawyers assert that Allison
Is trying to hold them up for several times
tho value of tho property and urged that
ho should not be granted the right to stop
thn operation of tho switch, but tho Judgo
stated that tho actions of tho plaintiff had
nothing whatever to do with tho questions
In controversy nud granted tho Injunction
according to the prayer of tho plaintiff.
