CASE NOW RESTS WITH REFEREE RYAN k'tnrilnu of the llr(rrrr on Law and fart Will lie Hfportrd to n lirrnie ( onrt "me Time Vll Wffk. At 11:.10 yesterday forenoon the tax man damus hearing, shlch began on the morning of March 11, came to an end. The rase i now In the hands of the referee, and there ia surcease of abstract oratory, of "objecting to the question," of the "taking of excep tions," of "offering answers," of "begging the question" and of splitting legal hairs The learned counsel have parked their tan colored law books and the theater of war has been transferred to Lincoln. Referee Ft) an, before he will make known his decision, will study the briefs which are to be submitted to hlrn by the lawyers of both sides. This wiil be done Friday or Saturday of this week. He hopes to Lave hi report to the supreme court ready ono week from today, when the lawyers will bo given an opportunity to look It over before It is filed with the clerk of that tribunal. Then the losing side will have until April 15, or five days. In which to file Its ex ceptions to the report. The remainder of this week the stenog raphers will be busy copying the evidence and exhibits, which are to be forwarded to Lincoln by express, and the counsel will work overtime on their briefs. Webster Kefers to (lath. At 9 o'clock yesterday morning Mr. Web ter resumed his argument where he left off Wednesday afternoon. "They seek by this writ of mandamus," said he, "to compel the Board of Equalization to do something In violation of its oath, and to commit a greater wrong than was committed by the assessor in using the 40 per cent basis. These complainants ran have no standing unless they ran make it appear that .the taxes they chall be required to pay will be greater than they would be required to pay if all the property were assessed t Its fair cash value, and that Is con fessedly not the case." After Mr. Webster had concluded Mr. Morsman spoke for a few minutes, and then Mr. Mcintosh began the last Install ment of his address. Replying to a remark made by Mr. Web ster to the effect that relators hadn't proved they had a grievance, be said: "I'm aorry, your honor, that counsel for the respondents see fit to make such an argument as that, because tbey know I can't answer it. and it Is taking an unfair advantage of me." He referred to the action of the referee in excluding testimony on the subject of corporation value. To thla Referee Ryan replied: "It wasn't necessary for you to make a tender of the sample of the evidence you would have adduced if you bad had a hear ing before the Board of Equalization. If you show you didn't have a hearing It will be enough: it will be presumed that you had something material to present or you wouldn't have asked for the hearing." Itraorlna; Intangible Property. "These corporations sought to have the parlous assessing and equalizing bodies Ig nore their Intangible property," resumed Mr. Mcintosh, "and to take account of their tangible property alone, and to assess even that at what It would sell for on the open market ss so much old Junk. Without the franchise, the soul of the corporation, this tangible property would be nothing but long lines of rails and ties, rusting and rotting, nothing but pipes burled under ground, not worth the price of resurrection, nothing but an twaightly series of wires and poles. These things do aot make a corporation. It Is the franchise that breathes the breath of life Into them and starts them going. And they not only have these franchises, which gives them permlasion, absolutely free of cost, to use our streets, to dig up our pavements and to erect their poles in front of our homes, but It gives them this right exclusively, offering them virtual im munity against competition. We are ask ing no favors here, your honor; we're sim ply demanding our rights. We're demand ing that these councllmen do the things which the law puts upon thera to do. We're taking these corporations to do the fair thing, to come up with us, the small house holder, and pay their fair share of the taxes." Mr. Mcintosh finished speaking at 11:30. While arrangements were being made with the stenographers for the copying of the proceedings he announced that Tax Com tnlasloner Fleming did not wish to claim tees for his attendance as a witness, as he (Mr. Fleming) considered It his duty as a public officer to do what he oould to bring about an equalization of the taxes. The stenographers were directed to make a note Df this fact. Mr. Mclntoah will go to Lin cola Friday to submit his brief to the referee and the brief of the respondents will probably be ready by Saturday.

Benson TRIES TO DELIVER IIOSPITALI Contractor Wants to Get Rid of South Omaha Pesthouse, COUNTY BOARD DECLINES TO TAKE IT Woman's lab Secures Financial Aid for Its I'lngrre Gardens from (off era of tbe touaty of Douglas. When the county commissioners met yes terday with all present but Harte they were cordially invited to take a , h;te elephant off tbe bands of Ed J. Brennan. a South Omaha contractor. The waits ele- phant Is the emergency hospital Brennan built for that city, but which baa never been formally accepted. He arose yesterday morning and formally tendered It to the beard, but the board thrust Its official hand behind It and declined to take hold of the proffered article. The members couldn't see bow the board was Interested. Brennan reminded (hem that tbey had agreed to bear the expense of construction up to $1,000 and that hla bill Is oaly $:i"0. He said he had finished tbe building about the middle of March and that It had been at once taken possession of by a superin tendent selected by tbe South Omaha Board of Health, who had contracted for It, but that the board keeps delaying giving him an order on the commissioners, and mean- time somebody Is breaking out window glass in the building snd there le the possi bility of fire destroying it. To relieve himself of sll responsibility for it he mads this formal legal tender. Ilrrnnnn liets Rsrlted. "I have been trying and trying to get the deal all closed up," said Brennan, "but when I went to them today tbey put me off again, saying some member of the health board Is In Kansas City, What do I care whether he is In Kansas City or In Pekln, III? I can't wait around until he gets back, for I am going away myself for my health. I've done all the waiting I am going to, and I hereby turn it over to you." The commissioners merely smiled and instructed the clerk to communicate with the South Omaha Board of Health for fur ther particulars. Mrs. George Tllden headed a committee from the Woman's club and told the com missioners of the club's plan to furnish deserving families with tracts of ground end seeds, that they may cultivate gardens for their own maintenance, under the supervision of a superintendent already selected by the club. Connolly moved that warrant for $75 be drawn, the club to use the money in the purcbase or seed nitatnea. and the motion carried. Pnmmlaaloner OKeeffe and Count Clerk Harry C.

IFTEEN YEARS FOR TREASON Private John W. Nleodemna' lea fence for Joining Filipinos Is Reported Here. From the Philippines, by way of official orders received at the headquarters of the Department of the Missouri yesterday, comes a story of treason which has never before been published. The traitor in tbe case was John W Nlcodemus, a private in Company M of the Forty-seventh United States volunteers. He was confined in the guardhouse at one of the posts In the Department of the North ern Philippines a year ago for some trivial offense, but broke from the house and es caped. Immediately after leaving the lines of the United States army be entered tbe insurgent camp and was received with re joicing. He offered to enter the ranks of the Filipinos and was accepted as a re crult, but before active operations began he became sick and was thus prevented from using arms against .his country. When he was finally captured he was tried and found guilty. His sickness saved him from the extreme penalty of the law nd he was given a sentence cf fifteen years In mllltsry prison at hard labor.

The Chinese She Companies by Its recent appeal for funds with which to oppose the enactment of the Chinese exclusion bill raised about $100 In Omaha, according to the statement made by an English-speaking Chinaman who keeps In close touch with the work of the companies. He said: "When the Six Companies came to tbe point where money was required It levied tax of $1 upon every Chinese resident of the United States. The notice of the tax was sent out several months ago and placed In the hands of every representative of the companies In the country. Each Chinaman was commanded to pay $1 and requested to pay as much more as he felt able for the purpose of defeating the exclusion bill In Its present form. Strange as It may seem, the majority of Chinese residents of the United States do not oppose restriction upon immigration from their native land. They would make no objection to a law which would keep tbe common laborers snd members of trades out of the country, but what they object to is the exclusion of the students and merchants. It was this phase of the pending bill which aroused their op position, or course the Six Companies Is opposed to any restriction of Immigration, put the average Chinese resident of tho country Is pleased to live where the stand ard of living Is higher than that which he has left and be is wise enough to want to preserve those features of the business life "u,tn to Keep tbat standard hleh.

DELAYS LETTERS FOR WESTERN NEBRASKA Incidentally Mike soars Dr. Ralph to Order Kvery Mall tlrrk to nhmlt to Vaccination nt Once. Mike Robe, doughty son of the Smallpox ierm ramny, seems? to be determined to figure aa a national character. Not long ago he had th. State Board of Health pe titioning the government to send the navy to Omaha to suppress him, and now he has been caught ln the act of Interfering with the free transmission of tbe United States malls. He was the cause of a whole car load of It being sidetracked in Omaha yes terday. The car is still here, and Is likely to be for fifteen houra yet, as tbe work of fumigation la slow. He also caused a reign of terror In the federal building, where since 9 o'clock yesterday morning orders have gone forth that all persons employed In the handling of malls shall be vaccinated forthwith. Mike came to town in the physical shape of Edward B. Saunders of Nebraska City, who Is employed as a weigher In the rsil way mall service. He arrived over ths Union Pacific early Wednesday morning and reported at once at the federal build ing. After transacting bis business he complained that he was feeling bad and ao was Invited to He down on a cot ln the rear of tbe mail distributing room. Here he remained an hour, then returned to his car at Union depot and went to work. Meanwhile Charles Davis, a distributor, though he would take a nap, so lay down on tbe cot Saunders had Just vacated, fall for Health I ommlaaloner. In mail car 102 thoee who worked shoul der to shoulder with Saunders began to suspect that all was not right. He was complaining of pains in his back and head, and his face was punctured with pustules. They felt that they were in the presence of a dual identity, and that Mike Robe and r.a aauoaers were both embodied in the same corporeal envelope. They notified the health commissioner to this effect. A glance of Dr. Ralph's practiced eve told hl:n that Saunders had the smallpox. He ordered him to the pest house, ordered tho car sidetracked and tho mall fumigated. and then turned his attention to the people at the federal building. Here he found that several persons besides Davis had used the cot, so he ordered the cot and bed clothing destroyed, the room fumigated and everyone In the room to be vaccinated. This Is why people who called at the post- office yesterdpy were met at the rotating doors by such an overpowering smell of wood alcohol and formaldehyde and why people In the western part of the state are not getting their mall. Rr. Ralph says that In spite of such Incl dents as this smallpox Is on tbe wane In Omaha. WILL PROSECUTE WILLIAMS Drpnty County Attorney Files State Complaint Aaalnat the Al iened Robber.
