Swedish Team Wins
the Military Biding
Olympic Event
STOCKHOLM. July 17,-Th fifth and
last event in the military ridlnc compe
tition at the Olympic game today nw
the United States team retrogade from
second to third place. Four team com
peted, Sweden, Germany, and the United
States, each represented by tour men, and
France by three. The English and Danish
riders abandoned the competition. '
The style and appearance of the horses
ridden by the officers counted larcely in
this event The foreign officers had ani
mals which were far more costly than
those of the Americans, some of whose
mounts are merely picked 'cavalry horses.
Horses rather than- horsemanship turned
the scale.
The individual scores in this competi
tion after the completion of the fifth
event today were: ' , '
Norlander, Sweden, first, with . 46.59
points; Rockow, Germany, second, , with
46.42 points; CorSon, France, third, with
46.36 points. Then come two Swedish of
ficers and one German,, with fractions
over 46 points, and these were followed
by First Lieutenant Ben Lear, Fifteenth
cavalry, who la placed seventh, with 46.81
points; First Lieutenant John C. Montr
gomery, Seventh cavalry, ninth,' with 45.88
points; Captain Guy V. Henry, Thirteenth
cavalry, eleventh, with 45.54 points and
First Lieutenant E. F. Graham, Fifteenth
cavalry, thirteenth, with 45.30 points.
The American officers embarked on the
Finland, which sails for Dover tonight,
and thus will miss the banquet which is
to be given to the military competitors.

Objections Are Made
to Slaughter House
Owners of property adjacent to ground
upon which the M. HIgglns Packing
company, South Omaha, has. built a
slaughter house have started an Injunc
tion suit against the company, declaring
that the slaughter house will greatly re
duce the value of their properties. They
ask a perpetual Injunction against the
packing concern and against the Bur
l'ngton railroad, which has constructed a
spur track to the slaughter house. It
Is alleged that the butchering ceUbllsh
ment Is unsanitary, threatens the health
of those who live around it and makes
lite generally unpleasant for them. It
Is further charged that the ground oc
cupied by the slaughter house Is higher
than the contiguous ground and rain
carries refuse from the establishment
onto the properties of the complalntants.
Those who filed the suit are Maggie Cum
mlngs, Alice Ranahan, the Omaha Coop
erage company and August Miller.

Serious Condition !
Following Operation
Hugo Brandeis of the big firm of J. L.
Brandeis Ss Sons and youngest brother In 1
the family, is lying at the danger point
in Wise Memorial hospital, where he un-;
derwent an operation yesterday morning
for an obstruction to the bowels.
The operation was performed by Dr.
Jonas with Dr. Bridges as the attending;
physician, and while the growth was
successfully removed, the chances of the
patient's recovery are said to be slender.
Mr. Brandeis has been ailing for some
time and under medical treatment, but
this complication was an entirely new
development ' He was subjected to a
severe strain two months ago when his
brother, Erall Brandeis,. went down with
the Titanic. He had, however, been at- '
tending- to business right along, and was 1
In his off.ee only Monday morning with ,
the Idea that his presence would permit '
his brother, Arthur D. Brandeis, to Join
his family for a brief outing In Colorado.
His condition Is such, however, that Mr.
Arthur Brandeis gave up the trip, and
Is therefore here waiting on his brother.
