RULING FORMS A PRECEDENT
Deoislon of Jndg.i Baxter and Day of Intsr

-CASES BROUGHT BY JOHN W. M'CULLOUGH
Eatopa Eajelnlag; Collection or )
ioalas Validity of Special Aa
tcaamaata Cemiag from
This Class of Cases.
Two cases of Importance to the city of
Omaha were decided by Judges Baxter and
Day, sitting together In the former's court
room, yesterday. Hereafter In all fore
closure cases in this city whera special
assessments for paving, curbing, sewer and
idtrwalks, the opening of streets and boule
vards, were deducted from the appraise
ment at tho time of tho sale, the owners
will not be able, under the ruling an
nounced, to enjoin the collection or ques
tion tho validity of such special assess
ments. Tho two cases which resulted in tho dis
cussion of the matter of assessments were
John W. McCullough againat the city and
the Omaha Loan and Trust company
againat tho city. In these cases the
plaintiffs became the purchasers at Judicial
sales of property, in which sales the sheriff
and the appraisers had deducted certain
void apeclul assessments from the gross
appraised value. The purchasers, how
aver, Ignored the deduction, and bid two
thirds of the gross appraised value.
The court holds that the amount of the
bid la Immaterial in any case where such
deductions have ben made and that the
purchaser Is, under auch circumstances,
eatopped from queationlng the validity of
special assessments so deducted.
In the McCullough case the gross ap
praisement was $3,000. The special assess
ment and the taxes deducted as encum
brance, prior to the mortgage lien fore
closed amounted to $1,409. McCullough,
under tho law, could have bid and acquired
the property at two-thirds of the net ap
pralaed value, but In this case the de
ductions were Ignored and tho purchaser
bid $2,000. '
Makes CoBloatloa Staad.
Subsequent to the purchase McCullough
began an action against the city ot Omaha
to have the special assettamenta Included
In said deduction cancelled. The city con.
tended, successfully, that McCullough. by
reason of the deductions, was at this time
precluded from questioning the validity of
the assessment.
The supreme court. In the raso of Batte'.le
against Mcintosh, In 1901 made the same
ruling as that lust announced by Judges
L axler and Day. The supreme court, how
J('ovor, In the ease of Hart against Beardaley,
decided In January, 19ut, In which caae a
mortgage was deducted aa a prior lien to

in fact a second mortgage. Tho owner ot
the second mortgage after confirmation of
salo began to foreclose his mortgage, al
leging that the purchaser, by reason of the
mortgage having been deducted as a prior
lien, was eatopped to question the priority
of tho second mortgage. The supreme
court, however, took the opposite view.
In the decision just rendered tho question
waa whether tho supreme court had receded
from Its position In the Battelle case, and
Judges Baxter and Day hold that tb. su

of People's Chnreh.
Rov. Charles W. Savldge, pastor of the
Peojrie's church, has a new project under
way the establishment of a library and
reallng room in connection with the
church. Ho haa received a small sum of
money and a number of books aa a nucleus
from friends of tho Idea and he Is now
trying Industriously to Increase the dona
tions. "Tho public library, Young Men'. Chris
tian association and other reading room,
all serve their purpose admirably, but
there 1. still room for a library In the
People's church to do good," says Rev.
Mr. Savldge. "Therefore I am working up
tho plan and hope to have a falr-slxed
library full of books and periodicals open
in a short time, I want my friends to
assist me so we can have the room opened
before winter sets In. Books may be
brought to the church at 616 North Eigh

NO INVESTIGATION IS COMING
Omaha Child Raving Instltnto Not to
Bo Probed br Governor
Mickey.
"The Omaha Child Saving Institute will
not be Investigated by Governor Mickey,
notwithstanding reports to tho contrary,"
said an Omaha minister who has Just
talked with Governor Mickey on the sub
let.
A committee from the advisory board of
the Institution, consisting of Rev. Hubert
C. Herring. Rev. T. J. Mackay and Mr.
Halford, of their own vlolitlon waited on
the governor Thursday, because they bad
under.tood that he had heard complaints
against the Institution. This was true, but
the governor was convinced of their falsity.
The complaints all came from Colorado
Springs, where lived the father of a girl
who bad been taken by tho Institute and
for whom a home had been found In the
family of a prominent citfxen of Nebraska
City, who later removed to Oklahoma.
This father who, was himself, unable to
care far the child, wrote numerous let
ter, saying that she had been terribly
abused. Sum tjma sgo slanager ulv7

GOSSIP OF THE POLITICIANS
Fops OTerst.p Themsalrei in Placing Kubat
on Tioket for Justice.
LATTER SAYS HE WAS NOT CONSULTED
Declares Be is Republican ana Re
fuses to Be Roped. Into Pops'
CampA Word on
Banmanu
Th. pops overstepped themselvto
again when they placed tho name of C. H.
Kubat.on the ballot as their nominee for
Justice of the peace. Mr. Kubat tried for
a republican renomlnation to the office,
failed and is now out of the race.
"The selection of my name by the peo
ple's Independent party was entirely with
out my knowledge or consent," says Mr.
Kubat. "I will not accept the nomina
tion, nor do I want the office. I am a
republican and will not accept a nomina
tion from any other party."
This la the kind of political ethics ' en
joined by the new primary rules, but
which failed to bear fruit when It came
to a question of the heretofore republican
Judges, Dickinson and Read, accepting a
nomlnatloSi from tho democrat.
"It I. to smile at the allusions by th.
democratic campuign managers concerning
the experience of Otto Bauman, the young
man whom they are trying to make county
treasurer," said a well known business man
yesterday. "I do not question the truth
of the statement that Bauman spent seven
years In a bank, but what bank was it?
The German Savings bank, one of the
enterprises that failed. Of course, I don't
claim that Bauman had the slightest chance
to keep the bank in shape, as I do not
suppose he could have done anything In the
minor position that he held.
"But then, of course, I suppose It takes
experience for any man to learn a lot about
"conservative and careful' financial meth
od.." An tmpoalng program of orator, has been

Ferdinand W. Church, tho New York
veterinarian, who secured $22 on a worth
lets check from Raymond V. Cole, was ar
raigned In police court, waived examina

THROUGH CARS TO DUNDEE
Serrios to Be Established Within
Weeks, Bays Mr. Smith.
Twt
FARNAM LINE BEING CONNECTED UP
Street Railway Company Bnsy with
Dodge Street and Other Linos
and Will Order New
Cars.
"Within two week, wo expect to have
all the Dundee Una In first-class shape,
from Fortieth and Farnam to Fiftieth and
Underwood avenue, the end ot the Una,
and the Farnam street car service will b
extonded Into that territory."
This statement was mada yesterday
by General Manager William A. Smith
of the street railway company. Mr. Smith
said further:
"Wo are at present repairing th Dodgo
street line from Tenth and Farnam to
Twenty-fourth and Lake street, and th
Commercial avenue line from Sherman ave
nue to Ames avenue, beside, the work un
der way of repairing tho entire Dundee
line. Tho work of th. Dodge and Com
mercial lines w do not expect to have
completed before some time early In th.
spring, because the workmen hav founl
It very hard to remove the old cable tracka
Tho Dunde line will be completed within
two weeks and the Farnam street car
service will then be extended with a sched
ule of one car every twenty minutes. It
is figured at present that every other car
will make the through trip. The old cable
cars on the Dodge line and the old cars
now being used on the Dundee lino will ba
taken to aome of th other stub line, for
use there.
Replacing; All the Time.
"No order, have yet been placed for new
cars to replace the ones In use on th
Dodpre line, but we have got to such a
point that we have to keep replacing and
scrapping old car. every spring. Next spring
we will have new cars for use on the Far
nam and Harney lines and it Is probable
that the cars In use on theae street, 'now
will be placed on Dodge and several of th
other line, where the service haa not been
so good."
Asked If the report was true that th old
two-truck cars of tho Omaha and Council
Bluffs line were to be used on th South
Omaha line, Mr. Smith said: "It Is not
the purpose of th company to make it a
regular thing to run these large car on
the South Omaha line, but at present w
are using them night and morning as trip
pers on the South Omaha and the Sherman
avenue lines. They will not be run regu
larly on these lines, tut Just when th.
travel Is heaviest. Considerable difficulty
is experienced In starting and stopping th
large cars and time is lost, so that w
do uot believe that it Is a paying Invest
ment to ua them on lines where ther. ara
short block requiring; many .tops."
