on night force with one acting as ser
geant or cfTptuin , and the marshal hav
ing general control of bolh night nud day
force , The marshal not to act sis street
commissioner , the captain or sergeant to
control the whole force in the absence of
thu marshal.
2 .That each policeman lie graded as lo
rank ami wear Iho number ot Ids rank ,
the rank numbering from 1 to 8 ,
Xo , 1 being the highest grade , the
grades to bo eslablislied by the marshal ,
11 That Ihero bo roll call once or twice
each day , and a drill each day nt police
hendqunrters ,
1 Tlmt In n book kept ill police head
quarters cnch policeman daily registers
the time he goes on and oil' of duty , nnd
registers each nrrcst , fully describing iho
same and the name of Iho person.
fi That no ono bo rolea cd from lull
without Iho order of cither the police
judge , mayor , marshal or captain of
police.
( ! That noono carry a key but the jailer ,
marshal or cuplnin of police.
7 That no per.son shall be searched
for property except in tlio presence of
two or more of the police force , ami the
properly then bu turned over to the
jailer , and such property to bo tlouo uii
in a package and nroperly labeled vitli
name of owner nnd contents ,
8 Thai the refusal of si policeman
lo obey the orders of his superior shall
bo good ground for removal by the
mayor , ami on such refusal Iho marshal
may suspend slich policeman from duty
until the mayor or other proper authority
Inis investigated such matter and re
stored Mich ofllccr to duly , That the

OMAHA , Sept. 80 , isai. LKillt ref the
r.li-ru' : : Tilesday'.s Hn : jou publish
connnunicatlons from Messrs. Crulglilou
and ( ! ray vvldtsh 1 cannot allow ( o gu by
without nn explanation , nml in order to
tlo this it will be necessary formotostntu
the facts exactly u they occurred. When
1 was appointed a member of the board
last year ( lie contracts vvciu mostly let ,
and the work well under way. [ observed
that the city inspector for the ooncrelo
undc.r the asphalt , paving hud a lot of
teams working for the Asphalt company
hauling material to the work. I called
Air. C'rijigliton'H attention tfj the fact thut
it was not proiier to employ a man for
insiieetor who hail teams working for the
contractor doing ; the work. Mr. Crplgh-
ton agreed with me , but s.iid a niiinburof
theft1 inspectors of public works we.ro
not Iho btM. 111011 for the place. , but that
they had I heir friends and it would inaku
tronllt ! if their were dismissed. I then
told Ad' C'roightou tlmt iierlmps it was
best lo let it go as it was for the balance
of Iho suaj-'on.bnt when work commenced
in the- spring I should insist upon having
a competent man for inspector of tion-
uroto and one who was not under obliga
tions to the contractor. Mr. Creighum
seemed to agree with mo in this mutter ,
and I stippo-ed the matter was settled.
* When work opened np this season and
the contractors was about ready so start.
in on riiminings street I suggested the
name of Major Dennis for inspector ,
anil Mr. t'reighton agreed with me tlmt
lie would inako n good inspector. .Just
before the work was commenced then t
was- called to Now York on business , but.
1 saw Mr. Uroigton before I left , anil it
was agreed that Major Deiinm should bo
put on if the work commenced before I
returned. When overylhing was ready
to commence work the old inspector who
already had his teams working for the
contractor , requested to be reinstated ,
nnd thereupon Mr. Creighton and Mr.
Gray decided that they would jet the
work go on without an inspector till J re
turned. When I returned it was about
nine o'clock in the morning , anil when L
learned that they were laying down the
concrete on Cnmings .street I wont thcro
and found the work going on without
anyone being then ; to represent the city ,
anil that the. .stones were very largo and
unlit to go into concrete. Cupt. Marsh
.stood then ; at the. time and L caljed his
attention lo Iho matter and told him I in
tended to bunt np Mr. Creighton and
have Iho work stopped at once. I got on
tiio cur with Cunt. Marsh nnd went down
town and soon iound Mr. Croigliton , anil
Mr. Creigliton admitted the stones worn
rather largo and said bo would see tlmt ,
the work was .stopped. At that time I
knew nothing about the train of stone on
the 15. & M. track , but when 1 returned
to my ollico Mr. Oni.y informed me by
telephone that Mr. Creighton wished mole
lo meet them at the oars to examine ( ho
stones. Wo met there and the stones
were rejected. Mr. CJray nogleot.s to say
that these stones were examined because
I objected to any more suclv stones going
in on Cnmings street. Now can Mr.
Creighton give any good reason for al
lowing : i block of concrete to bo put
down with those large .stones ? Ami if the
council doubts my assertion in regard to
the.se largo .stones being used in my ab
sence let them tour np the work , and if
they don't find it exactly as 1 have repre
sented it to be I will pay for having it put
down again. Now a word in reply to
Mr. Creighton's letter. Mr. Creigliton
undertakes lo imply to me language
that 1 have never used. Mr. Creighton
suys : "When Mr. Woodman .states that
ho vigorously denounced the failure of
the asjilmlt. company to comply with the
specifications , so far as laying granilo
blocks next to the street oar tracks on
Sixteenth street , ho seemed to overlook
the fact that , the records of the
board of public works show thai , he not
only , did not do MI , but tlmt on the con
trary lie voted for and joined in a recom
mendation to the city council that the
Asphalt company bo permitted to make
good their failure by repairing along said
trucks and laying u thicker strata of as
phalt. " J deny that I Imvocvernsed any
such language as "vigorously dcmnmccil
the fniiuro ot thu Asphalt company , etc. :
aiul I ajso deny that 1 voted for nnd
joined in recommendation ( o dm oily
council tlmt the Asphalt company bo per
mitted to make good their failure by re
pairing along said tracks nnd laying a
Ihiokor strata of asphalt. " What riU < Pdo
was this : Tlm Asphalt company'pro -
po. > cd lo repair the work ff | > indTcutcd
above , and I contented and recommend
ed Hint they might try the ovporiment ,
lint at the same time it was distinctly
understood by every inmnbur of
the board that wo would * not
rccogni > o that they had made
good the failure by repairing the pave
ment us tlmy m'ppo.xcd , and wo bold
them under a noavy bond to put in tlm
stones ut any time wo mightrcrjiiiro them
to do HO , nnd the council uccoijtod the re
commendation with this distinct under-
Mantling. There bus nothing huon mndu
good ami nothing will bo made good till
tnogninllo blocks tire put In , and Mr ,
Creighton knows perfectly well tlmt the
Asphalt company can bo required to | mt
them in at any time. Mr. Creighton tdso
says , "Jhiring my term of service with
Mr. Woodman on tiio board of public *
works bo never to my knoKledgo raised
any objections to any actions nf mine
with reference to jnihno works , but cor
dially coincided with mo in nil in\ . plans
anil opinions. " I will agree with Mr.
Cretghton tlmt this is so. ft was when
Mr. Crcighton had no plans and opinions
and let luyorito contractors do us tlioy
pleased that I found It nccctsurv'
to intorfc.ro. Will Mr. Croigliton admit
being us generous with nmy U'heii 1 in-
slhtctl that the asphalt company bo re
quired to procure tight bosc.s to'be used
on the wagons in which to bring the as
phalt mlxturo from the work : , to the
ground , us the specifications required.
Will Mr. Creigliton deny tlmt thu snpor-
inlfiidont of the asphalt company utterly
refused lo provide thu boxt s , and that
Mr Squires found It necessary la l.iLn ,

Chicago Herald : Now and then faoU
come to light showing what , a public
benefactor thu Standard Oil Company is.
The business of this company is to sup
ply the American people with oil and to
prevent everybody else from engaging m
Ihotrufile. It exorcises and enjoys a
complete monopoly. Tlm man or the
company seeking to compete with itsoon
becomes bankrupt , tt controls mark-
el * ! , combines with railroads ngainst
smaller shippers , and , in u won ! ,
dominates ami controls Ihn business , in
some instances , where il has not been
deemed advisaldo lo pursue the crushing
out process , competitors Imvo been
placated by agreements to limit produc
tion nml share the profits. These com
binations servo the .same purpose us the
free/.ing out practice so far as the con
sumer is concerned.
A suit pending at New York between
tlm Standard company and several in
dividuals who are in the refining business
at Cleveland grows out of a disagree
ment us to the division of the. profits. It
is openly admitted by both sides that , in
consideration of the payment of $10,000
into the business by the individuals re-
fcired to , the Standard company guaran
teed them a , yearly profit of fciW.OOO , si
dividend of three hundred and fifty per
cent. The trouble between the parties
in interest arises from the alleged fact
that the individuals sought by dishonest
means ft ) increase their profits beyond
tiio figure agreed upon.
Tliis is : i cute whens Hie company con-
sidcrcd it better to buy competition
thn : to crush it out. I'.otli ohemes are
against public policy , and yet the court
which so rule , oven in the most flagrant
ca.sc. is yet lo be found.

Diamond Ktngfl Doomed.
Now York Sun : "Every man bus his
diamond just now. " said an uptown
jeweler , as he leaned gently over n case
in which n. thousand diamond.1 * lay paved
in regular bands of gold , ' 'but between
you and mo and the dear public , there
will before long be si very radical change ,
and those retail dealers in diamonds who
have a big supply on hand , had better
liccp-thoir eyes open or they'll ' lind them
selves saddled with stock for which there
is .small demand. "
"That is rather an odd ring on your
linger. "
"Yes , nnd it. illustrates a phiiso of thu
present rage for diamond rings among
man. Therago tlocs not cll'oct the female
sex , because it can't. Women always
have and always will siemiiro as many
nnd as valuable diamonds as possible.
Hence , nothing ctiu ull'cct them. Men ,
until si few years ago , were accustomed
to look with suspicion and disapproval
at other men who wore diamond rings ,
nnd thu proper thing for a gentlemen
was conceded to ben single .signet or seal
ring on the fifth linger ot the. left hand.
I had ono Then the orn/o set in
ami men of all sorts and con
ditions of life began to effect the diamond
mend ring. It was usually worn on the
third linger of the left hand. First the
'glovo ring' hud the preference. This
was a modest , sqimre.odged baud with u
small diamond , set in flush with the sur
face of the ring , so that the glove could
bo cosily drawn on ; then tlm snake ring ,
nnd noxv the old solitaire style , which
was once considered fit only for women.
Snake rings sire still the most popular
known , I had this ring of mine made to
order , beoauso 1 wanted something a
little out of the usual run. Jt is a sort of
mythological python , which winds around
tlm linger twice and then rises with head
anil wings or fins , or whatever tlmy may
bo , in the air. It's a finely executed bit
of work and Iho garnet eyes and diamond
bond make a great show , but .still it'H too
gaudy by half for a man of my years. I
wear it because every ono wears Jewelry
now "
"Why , there are so many diamond
rings about that they Imvo become vulgar
and common. Wo can sell : i snake ring
witlin diamond head for $ ! W. It is only
it oliij ) diamond , but Iho workmanship i"
cunning , and wo must glvo the mnnll
clerks n chance , you know. "
