CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
John Bedill Shows Up with Bij Claim
AgainiV City for faltfj.
WANTS PAY FOR TIML hE WAS IN COURT
Backed by Attorns Weitff 4t Oilier
II Asks Council to Allv Hint
SI,3.St mm He I a a Jastly
Die Him.
Former Fire Chief John Redell has ft ed
a $1,.:.3J salary c.lm against the tit jr.
lie wants pay for ttie time he stayed In
Omaha aftnr hta name was omitted from
the pay colt hy the mayor and council and
Wore the day he was dismissed by the
Hoard of Fire and Police Commissioners.
The deraand wan sprung at the council
meeting Inat night. The communication
was heard with Interest, aa It was the first
echo of the notorious case that has been
heard at the city hall In a long time. No
comment was passed and the document
was referred to the assistant city attorney,
after the latter had stated that City Attor
ney Wright did not desire to handle the
matter, as he had been Bedell's attorney.
Weaver A Oilier, as attorneys, filed the
demnod for money for Redell.
Ilaal of His Claim,
The letter set forth that Redell had been
chief of the Omaha fire department for
several years prior to June, 190U That on
June 13, 19(4, the mayor and council with
out authority dropped Red til's name from
the salary appropriation ordinance; that the
Supreme court decided that only ths Board
of Fire and police Commissioners could
discharge Mr. Redell, which It did on Feb
ruary 201902, after charges had been filed
and sustained against the chief.
From June 13, 1901. to February 20, 1902,
Redell was In law chief of the fire depart
ment, according to the communication, ns
he had not been suspended or discharged.
He was ready and willing at all times to
perform such services, and while waiting
for calls upon him for this kind of service,
was not In a position to do any other work.
It Is asserted, and neither did he do any
other work.. The salary Redell think he Is
entitled to la figured, out at $1,462.81.
One Veto Sustained.
Mayor Moores vetoed a resolution to ten-
.r 12.800 out of the sewer bond fund for
land appropriated for the Clifton Hill
sewer, on the ground that part of the
property Is Intended for roadway. The
council sustained his action and later, on
volition of Councilman Evans, adopted a
resolution authorising $800 to be taken from
the general fund and 81,800 from the sewer
fund, thla being considered a just pro rafa.
Councilman Hoye was absent and by a
tie vote. Back, Huntington, Nicholson and
Evans auoceeded in defeating the proposed
contract with James Whalen for the haul
ing of all dead .animals, without expense,
to the city, Whalen to collect charges from
the owners or harborers If he could. The
generally Unsettled state of the garbage
question ' was advanced by Councilman
Nicholson as a reason for his action.
The city clerk was directed to proceed
with arrangements for the revision of the
registration, books for the special county
bond election April 5. The registration will
be on ' April 2 and the supervisors who
served last fall will be called upon to act
again.
The Advisory board was authorised to
buy 600 feet of two-Inch hose and twenty
five feet of four-Inch auction hose for the
Use of th sewer department and; the
Board of Publlo Works waa Instructed to
adopt specifications for stone sidewalk
crosslng-,u prepared by ths city engineer,
i Proposed amendments to the market
house ordinance, including an Increase of
salary for , the superintendent, were re
jected,' upon the recmmendatlon of the
committee., .
MUSIC AND MUSICIANS
"Joan of Arc," a historical cantata by
Alfred R. Haul, wss presented last evening
before a large audience by the choir of
the First Congregational church. The can
tata suggests to the auditor's mind the
adventurous career of the Maid of Orleans,
and Is replete with tuneful melodies. The
cantata waa rendered In a pleasing manner,
the chorus work calling for particular
praise and much of the Individual singing
for special mention. While there were a
few features that might be criticised, were
the auditor so inclined, yet, all things con
sidered, the choir and Its director, W. I
Thlckstun, are deserving of much praise
for Jhe sweet music rendered. The chorus
was assisted by Miss Christine Petersen,
eprana; Mrs. A. O. Edwards, contralto;
W. H. Wilbur, tenor; O. W. Manchester,
bias; Miss Netta Balth, pianist and W. U
Thlckstun, organist and director.

ECONOMY OF, FUNDING BONDS
iavlasr laterest Rapnlemented by
Having oa Contracts Through
Resaaaptloa of Cash Basis.
t
LINCOLN, March 16. To the Editor of
The Dee: 1 notice that an ex-deputy county
treasurer has come out against the proposi
tion to fund the county's floating indebt
edness which, If It were to carry, would
enable the county to do business on a cash
basis.
The arguments advanced by the ex-deputy
county treasurer are weak In the ex
treme and will not stand analysis from the
standpoint of anyone but . the warrant
broker.
' Why should Douglas county pay 814,000
per year for interest on warrants when the
same obligation can be carried for 87,600 per
year by converting It into low Interest bear
ing bonds? If Mr. Deputy can answer this
question Intelligently, let him try.
Douglas county lets contracts annually
amounting to from 8100,000 to 8150,000, and It
is an open secret that no contractor omits
to add an extra charge of from 10 to 12 per
cent to his contract, knowing that he must
wait twelve months before he can realize
on his claims. This item of added Interest
amounts at least to $10,000 per year, which
makes a total unnnecessary expenditure of
$18,600 per year should the bond proposition
fall to carry, and this money would largely
go Into the pockets of the brokers without
compensating returns to the people.
Another thing should not be overlooked,
and this Is one that is often resorted to by
county boards when the county's finances
are at a low ebb, namely, the transferring
of specific funds to other funds for which
they were never intended and which prac
tically amounts to a diversion of funds.
"When a county is on a cash basis such
a thing does not occur," Douglas county
has been running behind for years and, I
think, the time has come when the people
should say, "Let us work on a cash basis."
The new revenue law. If It carries out the
intent of its makers, will enable Douglas
and other counties in the future to work
on such a basis, provided they are not han
dicapped by a debt which has been accum
ulating for a generation or more.
The proposed bond issue is a gqpd busi
ness proposition and will stand the search
light of publio opinion.

TREES FOR PROSPECT HILL
Improvesaeat Club Plan Bis Tin
(or Arbor Day la It
District. ' .
Tree planting was the burden of the song
at the meeting of the Prospect Hill Im
provement club last evening. There waa a
fair attendance of members. J. F. Daley,
Of the parka and boulevards committee, re
ported that the school hoard had signified
Its willingness to assist In the tree planting
episode on Arbor day about the Prospect
Hill school.
The sidewalk committee reported a street
crossing badly needed at Thirty-first and
Decatur street. An effort will also be
mado to induce the city to have a water
main laid on Decatur street, from Thir
tieth to Thirty-second street, to accom
modate the people of that vicinity.
In order that the tree planting proposi
tion may be more intelligently handled and
the necessity of some expedition being
usid In the matter, all property owners of
the Prospect Hill district are asked to drop
a postal card to J. P. Daley, chairman of
th tree committee, at 1620 North Thirty
fifth street. Indicating the number and
kind of trees they deal re planted in frout
of their premises, these trees, maple, elm
or sycamore to b furnished by the Park
board. These portal card notifications
should be in the hands of Mr. Daley dur
ing th next week.

MAXIMUM LOAD FOR TEAMS
Conference Decides on How Knch Two
Horses fhU Full.
DIFFICULTIES IN WAY OF A SCHEDULE
Teamster aad Traasfer Mea Debat
the Polat tavolved with th
Ilnmaae Society aad Reach
Agreement.
B. J. Kecgnn and C. F. fieefers of the
Teamsters' anion, Walter Jardlne of th
Merchant Express company and John
Johnson of Johnson Bros, were present at
the meeting of the Humane society, held
In the parlors of the Commercial National
bank last night, to give In their evidence
as to what theyi believed should be the
maximum load for a team to haul over the
streets of Omaha.
It Is the Intention of the society to Intro
duce an ordnance In the city council to
limit the weight of all loads which shall
be hauled. After a continued argument
the following schedule of load limits was
agreed upon by the teamsters and team
owners: Coal, 4,000 pounds of domestic or
6,000 pounds of steam; building material,
4,000 pounds, excepting sand, concrete and
rock, on which the limit was placed at
two cublo yards; paving and building brick,
1,000, or 800 fire brick. The load limit for
merchandise was left to the team owners
and transfer companies. This schedule
was accepted by the society.
The team drivers are interested In the
matter, for the reason that they assert
their employers in some casn force them
to load more on their wagons than they
can haul, and when they protest they re
ceive the answer that they can haul It or
look for another position. This Is sold to
be especially true of coal dealers and ma
terial firms.
Difficult to Fix Jf axlmum.
Mr. Johnson stated that ho did not be
lieve any load limit could possibly be fixed
which would be equitable to all, for th
reason that conditions constantly vary, nnd
a great deal depends upon where the load
Is going. He thought that In many cases
4,000 pounds would be more of a load than
8,000 when " the latter amount was to be
drawn over level pavements and the former
over the hills .and off the pavement. Ho
said the drivers In the employ of .his firm
were at all times Instructed not to over
load their teams, and that when they did
so It resulted In a loss to his business in
place of a gain, on account of the abuse
th teams underwent In attempting to haul
more than their capacity. He stated that
In many cases he Is forced to depend upon
the judgment of the drivers. He did not
believe that any equitable scale of loading
could be fixed.
Walter Jardlne was of practically the
same opinion as Mr. Johnson. He stated
that in his opinion drivers are born and
not made, and related several Instance In
his experience to bear out his argument.
He said he had had one driver In his em
ploy who workod one team nineteen years,
and the team outlasted the driver. The
instructions of his firm to all Its drivers,
so he stated, are that in case of getting
stalled with a load If they try to mov the
load by urging their horses more than one
they may consider themselves subject to
discharge. He stated that the society has
his sympathy and he would consider It a
favor on the part of th association to have
any of his drivers arrested at any tiro
theyare caught abusing their tioses.

Senator Hogme In the Rnce.
ONAWA, la, March 15.-(Speclal.)-Re
f erring to the activity In the big Eleventh
congressional district and In answer to th
question of th candidacy of Senator E. D.
Hogue, it can be authorltlvely slated that
Senator Hogue Is a candidate for the con
gressional nomination. He Is In the race to
stay; Is not a strawman in any sense of
the word, and can be depended upon to
stay to the end. Th friends of Senator
Hogue are in earnest in their efforts in
his behalf and tiellevs that he has a fight
Ing chance to win the nomination and that
m rase of a break he certainly stands aa
good a show as any of the four candidates,
now so prominently mentioned. Senator
Hogue has strength outside of Monona
county and will have to be considered a
factor In the race hereafter. He will have
the solid support of Monona county.
Hubbard, Thomas, Struble and Roach all
have strength In Monona, but the repub
licans ere agreed that Senator Hogue Is
th man to support thla time. Monona
county has not had a congressional candi
date since Judge Addison Oliver was de
feated at Sioux City, over twenty year ago,
when Ike Struble was nominated th first
time and begin to think that lightning Is
about due at thl time, and that Senator
Hogue is a likely candidate.

Poison, "The Bad Disease," and is given other names, but
among all nations is regarded as the blackest and vilest of
all human diseases. It goes from bad to worse ; the little
sores that first appear are soon followed by others; the
glands of the groins swell and inflame, a red eniDtion breaks
