Who Will RaUe Objections to the Measure. Commissioner Butler will meet George T. Morton of the Real Estate exchange, J. A. C. Kennedy- of the Commercial club and W. F. Baxter of the Retailers' as oclatlon today in thex mayor's office at 10 o'clock to hear objections to the subwalk ordinance which he introduced. Butler has . had architects sketch all subway spaces now being utilised by business establishments and has com puted the costs to all property owners if the new ordinance Is passed. Instead of several thousand dollars, as claimed, he says the entire tax received will total only $2,200. Assertion by Attorneys. Attorneys for the business houses as serted before the council that the Bran dels Interests alone would be compelled to pay a tax of 110,000 a year for sub walk space used, if the 'ordinance was passed. . Butler has also computed the amount of taxes the owners of substreet spaco are now paying. The Brandels stores, he says, are paying $1,B11.0 taxes yearly for three large subways from which rent far in excess of the taxes la being col lected. Hayden Bros, pay a subway tax of $249 and other subway owners pay a pro portionately small amount. Butler believes that . ultimately the council will consider 'and probably pass an ordinance taxing merchants who ex tend show windows on the sidewalks. These merchants now secure permits and scores of display windows are eighteen inches beyond the building line, which Increases the value of the property and the rents without increasing the taxes.

MANUFACTURERS MEET AGAIN Resume Fall Sessions and Hear from Manufacturers of the State. ALL FAVOR AN0R0ANIZATI0N Replies Have Been Reorlred from Many Citlra and In All Case, Taey aay They Think the Plan of Benefit to All. The organisation of a state association of manufacturers was discussed a a meeting of the Omaha manufacturers at a luncheon at the Commercial club yester day. Letters in reply to the suggestion were received from fifteen of the principal cities and towns In the state, and all of those heard from were favorable to the proposition. In some cases' as many as ten manufacturers from one town were heard from. The manufacturers feel the need of a state organisation, by means of which they, may be enabled to bring before the legislature some measures which they believe should be enacted Into law. Borne of the places from which re plies have been received are Lincoln, Bea trice, Falls City, and many others. Most of them In their letters have given de tails as to how they believe the associa tion should be organised and what should be accomplished. The meeting was the first held by the manufacturers since the vacation season. The manufacturers took great Interest In the new sohool of commerce branch of the Omaha High school, and It was the sense of the meeting that a speaker should be engaged In the near future to address the association' on this new propo sition. On hearing of the "Made In Pitts burgh' 'special train that Is to arrive In Omaha September 10, the manufacturers expressed great Interest and all promised to make a trip to the station to examine the four oars of exhibits.
