THE OMAI1A DAILY HER: TUTRRDAY. FETtRTTATlY If, 1004. I1M WILL SEND OUT A VAN Ciun'y Tre nrer Hi His Trouble! Trying to Co led 0 i Tin v ADOPTS METHOD EMPLOYED BY THE CITY Determines to Hrlns? Delinquents to tlmr, Also to Kstnnllsh Some l)Mrn in Ilia OBlee. These are troublous Bnd trying times for County Treasurer Fink and hla corps of assistants at the court house, and all owing to the revenue bill passed at the last ses alnn of the legislature, which provides. In Substance, that people shall pay their hon est debts, otherwise known as personal taxes. The first result of the act referred to Is that the entire system of bookkeeping In the treasurer's office will have to undergo a complete change, or, rather, aa Mr. Fink ays, a change that shall lnausu ate some sort of a system will have to be made. The approximate aggregate of out standing personal taxes to be collected, which Includes those of 19U3 And previous years ss well, la estimated to be more than tfiOO.ono, and Mr. Fink expects that hnlf of this can and will be collected. He is going Hbout the matter of collections In a new way that means business and that bodes no good for the peace of mind of those delinquents who can and won't pay. Adopts C Ity I'lan. Apropos the Hennlng'a scheme, arrange ments have been made with a van and moving concern to transfer the goods taken tin dlMtresn warrants, and within a week, Mr. Fink says, he will Issue 500 of these, and there will be absolutely no distinction made as to race, color, creed or previous condition of servitude. In other words, these taxes must be paid, where there is anything to pay them with or anything upon the legal sale of which the where withal may be raised. 1 I There are In the vicinity of 30,000 names on the tix list whose bearers owe the county, and could this money be collected It would, according to the treasurer, put the county on Its feet, with something to the good. T'p to the present n drastic measures have been adopted, s distress warrant having been served In but one case. The office counts upon losing at least 5 per cent of the personal taxes assessed on account of people dying, moving and other wise getting out of the way between ths time the assessor man goes nround and the time the books are turned over to the treasurer. It la estimated that 43 per cent more of the taxes now due the county are so old that It will be Impossible to locate the debtors, and therefore Mr. Fink will consider himself fortunate to get 0 per cent of the gross amount Drlnara lllm to Time. This man's goods were taken and he came around thenext day and paid up $134 bark taxes, not with the most bouyant of spirits, it la true, but paid it nevertheless. It Is believed that this will be the rule of action with the delinquents when they find that the treasurer means business. On account of the Invitations and re minders that have thus far constituted the effort to get things square, about S2fl0 day has been going Into the treasury for the past week or more, but this is not fast enough to meet the requirements "Very few people appreciate the condi tion of affairs in thla office so far as bookkeeping is concerned," he said. "I had a man come In the other day and find fault brcaure we could not tell it a moment's notice the exact state of our finances. lie aid he owned a grocery store and when any man came to him and asked how much ., Mb blU. was ,Jie .could turn to his ledger 'and tell him within a minute. He did r.ot see why wc. In this office, could not do the same. But he did not atop to consider thai a piece of property owned by one . man today, and assessed, may be owned and sold by half a dosen other meq within a year. We shall, however, under the new law gradually evolve a system that will put things on a more satisfactory footing." Mortality statistics.

CHANGES VOTING DISTRICTS Ordinance by Dyball Alters Bounda ries In Seventh Ward to Ac commodate Voters. An ordinance has been Introduced by Councilman bybnll changing the bounda rlea of the Third and Fourth voting dis tricts In the Seventh ward. The alteration Is slight, however, and Is done in order that four blocksfull of citizens may not be compelled to walk a long distance past one polling plate In order to vote. A strip run ning from Castellar street south to the limits and lying between Fortieth and Forty-second streets Is to be chopped off the Fourth district and added to the Third. Owing to the placement of the population It has been deemed necessary In the post to have the polling place of the Fourth dis trict near Twenty-ninth and Martha streets, whereas the booths of the Third sre located near Thirty-third and Francis, or much closer to the territory that will be transferred. It is said that some of the voters refused to exercise their prerogatives because they had to walk so far to vote.

ONE HAS PART OF MONEY WHEN CAUGHT Latter Is Xearo Charged with Bobbing Johnnie Wright's IMaee of Fifty-Five Dollars la Broad Daylight. Omaha police have rounded up two men accused of entering and robbing saloons. One prisoner Is colored, who la charged with plying his craft at a colored man's place. About S o'clock Tuesday afternoon, while Alex Burrell. bartender at John Wright's saloon, 105 8outh Twelfth street, was in another part of the place and the only other person In the saloon was sleeping at a table, Henry Brown is said to have entered the front door, opened the cash drawer and made hla escape with tuS and a bank book. Too Stiff to Ran. When Burrell returned to the bar he saw Brown walking out of the door, and suspecting that the money might have been taken, the bartender hurriedly examined the drawer and discovered the loss, cut being slow of movement from the effects of rheumatism, Burrell could hot overtake the thief. A good description of Brown waa given to the police and detectlvea were Im mediately placed on the case, with the result that the man soon waa apprehended. The first intimation of his whereabouts was received at the Union station, where It was learned a man answering Brown's description had Inquired regarding a ticket to Atchison, Kan. The authnrltles at va rious points were telegraphed to look for Brown, and it was not many hours after wards that the chief of police .at Nebraska City advised that the man had been taken off the train there. Detective Ferris was sent for the pris oner and returned yesterday. Brown had added a new hat and overcoat to his wardrobe and had $45 of the money left when searched. Waives Any Examination. He waa arraigned In police court yester day morning on a charge of grand larceny, waived examination and was bound over to the district court on bonds of $700.

Hilton, It was stated, entered the saloon by breaking a rear window and took a quantity of whisky and cigars. He Is said then to have gone to some neighboring sa loons to enjoy his plunder and his sudden prodigality aroused suspicion. GRUBER CUTS DOWN EXPENSES New I'nlon Pacific Superintendent Swings Axe by Order of Mr. Harrlmnn. It Is said one of the first moves In the general plan of redlstr.'ctlng the Union Pa cific will be the removal of the headquar ters of the operating department of the Cohsado division from Denver to Chey enne. As outlined !n The Bee some time ago, the changes which are said to be un der consideration in the redisricting scheme provfda for the abolition of the Colorado division entirely. This division probably will be divided Into three sections, one of which will be turned over to the superintendent of the Kansas division, an other to the superintendent of the Wyoming division and the other to the Nebraska di vision. As part of the reorganization plans pro vide for placing R. R. Sutherland in the position of superintendent of the Nebraska division, it is believed that it will be but a few r eeks until Mr. Deuel is retired or placed In another position. It has leaked out that when J. M. G ru ber was placed in the rosltlon of general superintendent of the Union Pacific, his Instructions from Mr. Harrlman, president of the system, were to cut expenses in every way possible which would not se riously cripple the operating department of the road. By cutting out the Colorado division entirely and combining the of fices of the division at Denver with the offices of Superintendent Parks at Chey enne, a largi amount of money can be saved annually It Is well known that this plan was under consideration about two years ago, but was abandoned on ac count of the strenuous, protests entered by merchants of the Colorado city. At that time President Burt reported to the board of directors that the Colorado division was entirely unnecessary, and that a large amount of money could be saved by merg ing It with connecting divisions. At the local headquarters E. Bucking ham will be placed In charge of the car service department, and his duties will be confined to that department. He will have the title of superintendent of car service, nd will have entire control of the move ment of equipment. His assistants will be W. C. Bartlett, who is at present au ditor of equipment, and W. D. Lincoln, car service agent. J. M. Gruber, general superintendent. vv. A. Deuel, superintendent of the Ne brnska division and W. If. Bancroft, gen eral manager, came In from the west this morning, where they have been canvassing the situation regarding the proposed changes. When seen, Mr. Oruber stated that he had nothing to say repardlng any changes. WAS HALD BIX IKAKS. Three Months of the New RelentlSe Treatment Restored Hla Hair.

WANT NO EXTRA SESSION NOW Real Estate Exchange Men Report Against Proposition, and Re port Is Accepted. The committee of the real estate exchange appointed to investigate the need for call lng an extra session of the legislature on the constitutional amendment rt ported a the meeting yesterday in the negative, Tha report was accepted. City Attorney Wright, Councilman Hunt tngton and Superintendent of Instruction Pttarse appeared before the exchange by Invitation and explained the reasons wbl maae tne nign tax levy necessary. At torn Wrlgfat spoke Oxat. Us tovk up Ue levy by departments and argued that the last legislature set these amounts and that the people of Omaha would not allow the police, fire and other departments de creased. Councilman Huntington con sidered the entire levy from the standpoint of the council. He said he owned prop erty In the northern part of the city on which the tax was practically confiscation, but that he thought the council had done the only thing possible. Superintendent Pearse explained the reason why the school levy had been higher during the last four years than previously. He said that the tax was $110,000 more this year than Inst because the school board last year had In tended to levy on the $100,000,000 basis, but because the Real Kstate exchange had asked for their moral support the members had levied on the $130,000,000 valuation, and tin excess this year was to pay for the shortage of last year, due to the nonpay ment of the railroad tax. WOMAN UNDER MURDER CHARGE Mrs. Jessie Starker Formally Arcnaed of Causing- the Death of Her llnsbnnd. Deputy County Attorney J. A. C. Ken nedy yesterday filed charges of mur der In the second degree against Mrs. Jessie 8tarkey, charged with having stabbed her husband with a potato knife at Benson several weeks ago. while riding home. In a sleigh. The case will be heard In Judge Altstadt's court Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The Starkeys live on a tract of land about two mile southwest of Benson, and the stabbing occurred about three weeks ago, while the man and wife were riding home with Mr. Peterson, a neighbor. The coroner's Jury returned a verdict last Thursday afternoon that the Injured man came to his death from septic pneu monia, caused by a knife wound Inflicted by a knife In the hands of his wife.
