Trouble la brewing for the packing houses In South Omaha- en the allegation that they arc maintaining a-nuisance detrimental to the publlo health. Complaint to that effect haa been lodged with the secretaries of the Btate Board of Health, who meet tomorrow at the omce of Btate Superintendent Fow ler. L " . .

A regular practice. It Is averred, at the packing houaea U to turn water from the hydrants onto the hogs as. a preliminary to taking them to thfc killing pens. ' This water flows from the yards hi a torrent, constituting a etream Of considerable proportions. Natur ally It la saturated with foul smelling filth, which,, according to the complaint.

If 1st at Corporate Hunch. Ever since Robert Ryan began hla cele brated suit to overturn the legislative ac tion of 1887 in declaring carried the consti tutional amendment .relating to salary and Sessions of the legislators the politicians have been trying to figure out what was behind It all. Mr. ; Ryan has repeatedly declared that he was acting solely In the Interest of the law,-believing that the In tegrity of the state constitution demanded that such attempts at amendment should not be permitted. It has been hinted re cently that aa a matter of fact the cor porations of the- state were behind the move. - The motive assigned la that they think sixty days too long a time. Forty days la a pretty fair average for lobbyists. After that their ways become too open, too many malcontents are reared up and trouble fol lows. It la In the closing days that the railroad agents fiavs most of their troubles and a' shorter session might mitigate these, Deputy." Attorney Oeneral Brown Is busy preparing- for the slate's appeal from Judge Holmes' decision. He thinks that the de cision will be overturned. He has found decisions holding that legislative adoption of ah amendment and action thereunder by the state officers deprives the courts of any tight to go into the matter, since the adoption of an amendment is a political act within the sole province of the legis lature. The theory Is that the legislature Is supreme when exercising political functions of accepting constitutional amendments. One of the Nebraska cases holds that to permit the courts to go back of the action of the legislature might in certain cases be a sort of. state suicide since the state without a constitution would be reduced to the state of nature dear to the hearts Of old times political philosophers.

A big, bulky transcript and record was filed by attorneys for Mrs, Lena M. Llllle, convicted in the district court of Butler county of murder, with the clerk of the supreme court today. The record Is one of the largest ever filed in that court. There are 1,638 typewritten pages of mat ter in the record of the trial and the mo tion for a rehearing, while the questions asked on the trial as given in the record number 12,095. The petition In error urges that there was bias in the minds of the Jurors who brought In the verdict finding Mrs. Llllle guilty of shooting her husband, Harvey Lll lie,' In October, 1902. Objection is made also to the weight given the testimony of persons who had seen Mrs. Llllle fire off a revolver. It Is claimed, too, that the ad' mission of testimony showing that Mrs I.lllfe failed to exhibit grief commensur ate with the loss she had sustained, was error on the part of the trial court. The witnesses testified on that point that she had been at the bedside of the dying man, but was Apparently unconcerned. The experiments conducted by several local sportsmen shortly before the trial to determine the effect of the revolver flash on lace curtains at different ranges are also' alleged to have been improperly ad mltted as evidence. The testimony of a former pupil of Mrs. Llllle that he had seen his teacher several years before fire at a hat and miss it is also under the ban of the defendant's attorneys as being too far-fetched to show that the defendant Is In any way guilty of the, crime charged against her. ' Several of the Instructions given by the court to the Jury are made the basis for exceptions. The sixth instruction as to the charac terlstlcs of malice Is alleged to be incorrect, as are the instructions as to the right of the Jury to base a verdict on circumstantial evidence where the facts exclude every other reasonable hypothesis of the condi tions surrounding the crime. Another in struction telling the Jury that the verdict should not be influenced In any way by the effects which follow a conviction Is cb Jected to, while another instruction that the evidence need not show any motive for the commission of the crime to Justify a verdict of guilty meets with a similar objection. Tho briefs have not yet been filed, but they are expected at any time and then the attorney general will begin the work o preparing the state's brief. The case may come up at the September sitting of the court. Mrs. Llllle is still confined in the Butler county bourthouse at David City under guard. In some cases prisoners are taken to the penitentiary immediately after con victlon, but in this case, put of deference to the sex of the prisoner, she will be kept In Butler county until the issue Is finally determined in the supreme court. Should the court remand the case for a new trial she will probably be released on ball. If the conviction is affirmed she will be taken to the penitentiary to begin her life sen tence. Another trial would probably be held In some other county, since one of the allegations rrade by tho defense was tha local prejuuice against the prisoner made it impossible to secure a fair trial In But' ler county. Will Parana Stir Idea. Attorney General Prout, State Architect Tyler and Superintendent Kearna of the Hastings Insane asylum left tonight for an tour of several eastern states to glean In formation as to the "cottage" plan of car lng for the Insane. The ideas gained on this tour will be used in the recoustruct'on of tho Norfolk asylum. The trip will prob ably last a week. Toledo will bo the first city visited and then a stop will be made at Logansport, Ind., and possibly at Kan kakee. III. Attorney General Prout is member of the Board of Publlo Lands and Buildings, which will have the work of reconstructing the Norfolk institution in charge, and he goes as the official represen tatlve of that body, while the state arch! tcct will secure plans tor the work In the state. The members of the board are greatly In favor of the proposed plan. The Logans poit institution la said to be one of the best In the world. It was constructed by an expert who made a tour of all the Im portant Institutions of the European coun tries and It is supposed to embody the lat est Ideas In raring for the Insane. The central Idea of the schema Is to keep the patients In several detached buildings In stead of In thJaxge prison-like structures which have been used in the past. The sur roundlngs are said to be more conductive to a cure of dementia and the patients are generally more cheerful because of the homelike aspect of things. The only objec tion urged is a slightly Increased cost of maintenance, although the rrlee per bed la much lower than under the old system. The departure of the party for the east will be good news to the people of Nor folk, who have been clamoring ever since the isVournment of the legislature for a beginning of the work of reconstruction. The appropriation is 1100,000. This, it Is ex pected by the members of the board, will be enough to remodel the old building, which escaped the fire, Into a modern ad ministration building and also to provide for the erection of a few detached build ings for wsrds. The Board of Public Lands and Buildings will try to have the plans completed so that ths work can be commenced this fall. Va by the serious illness of his mother, to tho effect that tho patient is recovering. Mr. Dodson will visit the old scenes of his boyhood and enjoy a period of rest before returning to his duties. Fight Over School Location. FREMONT, Neb., Aug. 6. (Special.) A vigorous fight is in progress In district No. 72 over the location of the school house. At a district meeting held June 29, at which it is said only fifteen voters were presont. It was voted by a vote of 7 to to move the school house to the center of the dis trict. There is a decided difference of opin ion as to where that point really is, on account of the Irregular shape of the dis trict. Contractor William Guetch put a force of men at work Monday moving the building, and last night had It half a mile from Its original location. Thomas Gaughan, treasurer of the district, last evening got out an Injunction restraining Guetch and several other defendants from moving the building further, on the theory that they were not moving It to the prpper place. In anticipation of the Injunction, Mr. Guetch, under instructions from the other officers of the district, kept right on at his work last evening and was 'busy at It when Sheriff Bauman, who went up to North Bend on the Grand Island local and drove north from there to Clyde, arrived and served the papers. The district court will have to decide where the center of the district is. ,i BRYAN TALKS WITH LEADERS Nebraska Han Eo'di Conference With Dam ocrata in Ohio, .
