Weather Affeets Spring Trade and
War Influence Price.
NEW YORK, Feb. 19. Rradotreet's
Weekly Review of Trade this week will say:
Midwinter condition sre a bar to growth
In spring trade and interfere greatly with
transportation and outdoor activities gen
erally. Still a fair Increase of ouslneea la
noted In lobbing circle at leading western
and Bouthweatern centers and the bet
week's Jobbing business o far thla yrar
la reported at leading eastern markets.
The leellng la that while soring trade will
be later than a year ago, this drawback caif
be largely oflset If good weather wuper
venea later. ....
Conalderable doubt still exist an to the
effect of the most severe winter In recent
years upon tho wheat crop planted lat
fall, but definite Information must await
the appearance of warmer weather. While
favorable to some lines, notably coal and
heavy winter wearing apparel, the general
effect of the unbroken cold wcaiher upon
InouKtrv Is not favorable.
Railway) earnings in January showed the
rlrat decrease reported since February. lHCo,
and the first decrease reported in January
since 1497. Bank t'luarliis tor th week,
broken a It has been by the holidays,
make a poor liowln. Importunt luilur-s
are more Important till week, small banki
and Insurance companies, the latter at
Halllmore, contributing largely. Money li.
tenued to slightly harden.
War influences out u large figure In th
course of prices, which, with few excep
tions, has been upward. Flour, wheat,
torn, oats and pork all made new high
records, thoae of wheat and Hour belrtg tne
highest reached since 1I)3, and tea, butter,
tin and copper also advanced, though not
In all cases owing to present or threatened
hostilities. Cotton and coffee were con
spicuous exception to the general advance,
but this waa due to the advance of liquida
tion under way for onie time, and pig Iron
weakened as the result of backward de
mand, enlarged production and increasing
locks.
Pry goods, shoes and millinery note the
first symptoms of spring activity at Chi
cago and St. Louis, and while those cities
report mily moderate activity, Kamas City
mid Omaha are rather more confident. Bt.
IaiuU clothing men report business equal
to a ear ago. Tunnem have all the busi
ness they ran handle, and cheap furniture
is very active, presumably tu preparation
tor the great fair.
Cold weather holds back trade at the
northwest and It is still rather quiet on
the I'.icillc coast, although good ;all.s Pi
'i.llf'irnU and expected large bu'lners wl'.h
Alaska help the outlook. Southern 1 repara
tions for a large crop of cotton, torn and
lice help trade In fertilisers, farm Imple
ment and supplies of kindred lines. Oroe
eilea and provisions are aiso active nt
jobliere. business' is generally better than
a ear ago In the '.outh as a whole. At
the east the shoe trade seems rather quiet.
The jobbing dry goods trade has picked
up well at New loik uud llostou this
week. What Is described as a fair tr.ule
Is doing In dry goods at Clil 'ufco and HI.
Louis. Nothing like the activity of a year
alio is reportable a yet, but weather condi
tions insy be responsible for this. Stock
market activity at New York Is restricted.
Depiessiiig tendencies from abroad, com
bined with poor railroad earnings and In
activity 4n trade due to the prolonged
winter affect advices unfavorably. Kust
money checks liquidation and result In a
gp-'culuUve deadlJ k. attention being 111 1 1 nl y

nvstiiient demands for Income securities
are fair, apart Irom the cbsence of do.

INVESTIGATE BOARD'S DELAY

Done,
"Your conduct is becoming s disgrace to
the city," declared City Attorney Wright
yesterday, addressing City Comptroller Lo
beck and Building Inspector Wlthnell, as
majority members of the Board of Public
Work, In a vain endeavor to get them to
agree with City Engineer Kosewater, the
third member of the board, as to paving
specifications.
An official investigation a to why delays
have been caused in the submission of pav
ing specifications by the Board of Public
Work has been ordered by the mayor and
council. Sessions will begin this morning
In a committee room at the city hall, Coun
cllmen Nicholson, Hoye and 8"roeder sit
ting as a special committee. Witnesses will
be called upon to testify tinder oath and a
tenographlc record will be taken.
Councilman Nicholson, who Introduced
the resolution. Is chairman of the commit
tee. He say ulterior Influences have been
operating upon the majority member of
the Board of Public Works and It will be
the object of the Inquiry to make plain
Just what they are.
After a tumultuous meeting of the board
yesterday afternoon, at which the majority
member, Comptroller Lobeck and Build
ing Inspector Wlthnell, refused to act upon
tho work of Chairman Roycwater, the coun
cil met and adopted the resolution calling
for the Inquiry, only Back and Schroeder
voting against It
The document was hnnded Immediately
to Mayor Moore, who was present, and he
signed It. Councilman Schroeder stated he
would be out of the city until t o'clock
thl nfternoon. but Chairman Nicholson
announced tho sitting would begin
promptly at 10 o'clock today snd be con
tinued a long as necessary.
Text of the Resolution.
The text of the resolution la:
Resolved, by the city council of the city
of Omaha, the mayor concurring. That n
committee of three, to be composed of
councllmpn, to be appointed bv the presi
dent of the council, be appointed for the
tiurpone of Investlpntlng the cause of the
delay In tho adoption of paving specifica
tions by the Board of Publln Work, and
said commltteo I hereby given full power
to subpoena and swear any and all wit
nesses that may be desired before said
committee, s.ild witnesses to testify tinder
oath a to the knowledge of their prepara
tion of snld specification. And said com
mittee is hereby Instructed to meet at 10
o'clock . m. on Saturday, the 20th of Feb
ruary, 1904, with power to continue it ses
sions dally until thev are ready to rpport;
and said committee I authorised and em
powered to employ a stenogranher to take
down the evidence before, snld eommlttpp.
a transcript of which Bhall be transmitted
to the council with the report of said com
mittee. At the meeting of the board the majority
member disregarded the request nf John
C. Wharton, speaking a a taxpayer; City
Attorney Wright and City Engineer Rose
water to take up the specification section
by section and vote upon them, and re
fused to act. Lobeck had the meeting ad
journed until 10 o'clock Monday morning,
when he said he would be ready with the
change and authorities for them that he
desired. When asked the direct question
by Attorney Wright as to why he would
not proceed then and there in open ses
sion he had no answer.
Both City Attorney Wright and Mr.
Wharton pleaded at length with the ma
jority member, but to no avail.
Let It Smell, ay Lobeck.
"Gentlemen," said the attorney, "don't
delay this matter any longer. It is now a
question of public notoriety and if you
don't be careful it will smell so loud that
the state won't hold It."
"Well, let it smell," retorted Lobeck.
Chairman Rosewater openly accused both
tho other member of having had confer
ences with certain contractor yesterday
morning and said he could prove his state
ments if called upon to do io. They were
not denied, Wlthnell remarking merely that
It was no more than Kosewater had done
with other contractors.
Later in the meeting, which was full of
loud talking and accusations, Chilrram
Kosewater rose to his feet and declared
vehemently:
"Any man who says that the Barber
Asphalt company had anything to do with
these specifications stales what is a de
liberate lie!''
"Well, I say so," tesponded Wlthnell de
llnntly, and Attorney Wright Interposed to
save the dignity and decorum of the boar A
The board waa proceeding to coolly dis
regard the specifications which the en
gineur had prepared after long consulta
tion with Attorney Wright, by speclil or
ders of the council, when Mr. Wright ured
action upon them.
DISK race to the (It r.
The majority members, however, con
tinued the temporizing methods. They aro
democrats, and so Is Attorney Wright, but
this fact seemed to havs no Influence over
the speech of the attorney.
"It will be a matter of deep regret, gen
tlemen, if you do not act today," he suld.
"Your conduct has becomo a perfect dis
grace to the city, and the people are de
manding to know why this board cannot
get together and decide these questions like
bUElnesa men. You, Mr. Lobeck, spent al
most an entire day in my office suggesting
changes and going over the specifications,
and every one has been made, with one or
two trifling exceptions."
I.obeck tried to show that he had been
basely deceived and that several pages
had Oeen added to the document wince his
Inspection, but both Attornles Wrignt and
Herdnian flatly contradicted him.
Mr. Wharton explained that he wi:s a
property owner at Twentieth and Chicago
at nets a 'id for three years tiiu citizens In
terested have been trying to get Twenteih
street, which is in bud condition, pave J.
lie spoke in high terms of tbi ability and
integrity of the city engineer and said he
had implicit -and unreserved confidence in
Mr. Wright. ,
In Justice to the taxpayers, he urged
that the majority members of th board
accept the combined work of these two
men one a legal expert and the other an
expert in engineering and enable the peo
ple to put themselves In a position where
they can have streets tit to travel upon.
"Whether or not you have been try.r.g to
serve certain contractors," he saJd, "ihe
actions of this board have beet me notorious
and the people all over the city are dis
cussing It. Now, why not take up these
specifications snd act upon them fairly and
openly and say to the contractors 'keep
your hands off?' Why do you nfd to wait
until next weik?"
Ills question brought nothing that could
be termed an answer.
City Engineer Rosewater, after the coun
cil had ordered an Inquiry, said:
"1 knew nothing about this resolution or
Its object until I heard it read before the
council. I am ready and willing to assist
the committee in any way possible and. am
gratified that the investigation is to be
made. I hope, only, that it will be thor
ough and searching." ,
