8 THE OMAHA" DAILY'BEE : SATUEDAYV DECEMBER 11. 1886. A Reply to the Complaints Made Against the Corporation- ARRESTED FOR GROSS PERJURY. Strikers nnil "Scnbi" Corpornl Tnn- ncr 1'cicrson 1'olsoncd Tlio .Mlllc Inspector SnliiR tlio Western Union Oilier I/oonl. of Gns. Mr. Frank Murphy , of the Omaha Gas company , was asked yesterday for n state ment of tlio position of the K-IS company with rRar < l to ranking service connec tions , anil under what authority they arrogated to themselves the solo rlaht to lay service input from tlio curb-line to tlio gas-motor. "The Hin : lias evidently been noting under a misapprehension of the facts,1' said Mr. Murphy. "Tlio chanre that our prices for making house connections are exorbitant , is entirely unfounded , Tlio aim of tlio company is simply to cover actual expenses of such work , and to sounre , through its own workmen , n com petent and substantial .job which will not give continual annoyiuico and cause re peated expense to lliu consumer for repairs. Under tlio contract with the city wo have the right if we BO desire to charge from tlio main to the hon.se , but during the past two years wo have spent thousands of dollars in lay in ir the pipes from the mains to Hie curb-lines , where streets were about to be paved , thus relieving prospective con sumers of the expense of service-pipe * from the curl ) line to tlio center of tliu street. Tlio water company makes con sumers pay for the whole distance. So much for the exorbitant charges which are complained of , of which any one by enquiring can readily discover are at icast as little as will bo charged by any gas-litter in Omaha. "I admit that our rule is that we alone shall make connections with our mains , and that none but our workmen shall bo permitted to lay the service-pipe through out its entire length to a conecetiou witli the meter. Wo do this for ( lie protection of consumers , and not for uny prolits which there may bo in it for there are none. In addition , we have another rule which is equally for the nroteetion ot the consumer of gas Hint no gas shall bo turned on until our inspector has made a thorough test of tlio gas tilting inside the house and has pronounced it tight and free from leaks. For this , nowever , wo make no charge at all. The rule may .seem an arbitrary one , bill it is for the mutual protection o"f the gaf company and all citizens who use tlie produce of our works. Any one can ficc that if general license were given for citizens to connect with our mains , any dishonest individual could use our gas free and rob us of our properly. 15y doing our own work ouservico pipes , we know just what connections are made mid that the job is properly dono. In fol lowing out this plan we are fully within our contract and are protected by city ordinance. 1 am free to admit that if it could be proved that our charges , result ing from our exclusive rigjit to lay ser vice pipes , wore exorbitant and out rageous , that the question which tlio IJii : : has raised might havn some point , lint as matters no'w stand it is without value , so far as tlio interests of the gas con sumers of Omaha arc involved. "Jf there are nnylcgitinmto grounds for complaint against the Omaha ( < as com pany wo shall be glad to know thorn , and shall right them so tar as lies within our power. All these which the HKIJ lias urged are capable of ready explanation. For instance , its complaint that wo re fuse to make service connections with our mains'in tlio winter time. We have boon obliged to make this rule , because leach year at the approach preach of winter , or after the ground is fro/oii tightly for many inches , below tlie surface , we are overwhelmed witli applications to tear up tlio streets and tap our mains. What trenching wo could do fur 2f > cents a loot in the sum mer time under sueli circumstances costs us from -10 to f,0 cents , and this additional burden is thrown nuon us through the carelcssnes of property owners who could readily , if they so desired , have se cured the connection as soon as the foundation for the house Mail been put in. Another complaint suggested is Unit property owners often make sewer and water connections , and that if they weto given the right to join with our mains or extend their gas pipe to llio curb line , could save money by laying the gas pipe in tlie same trench in which the cower or water pipe was placed. "Wo absolutely rcfu&e to permit this because - cause the beating of the trench in which the sewer and water pipe is placed , Would cause leakage ami disturbance of the gas service-pipe to the detriment of the gas company and to the injury of the property holder. "I think you will lind , if you inves tigate , that any other charges of a Jike character which are made against the gas company have as little foundti- lion as those which 1 have explained. " BTIUKUKS AND "SOA1JS. " BcenoH Around In tlio n. & 91 Turds Yt'Htordny Morning. The H. & M. passenger yar.ls wore yesterday torday morning as quiet as if it were a holi day. No cars were being switched and no striking switchmen were 10 bo scon. The passenger train from the west and the Chicago , ISurlinston & Qnlncy from tlio east , ran into the depot and up to noon had not been ( .witched. The only sign of life visible on the tracks , was an engine , which was being backed to the depot to bo linked to the pay car which marts out on its journey tills afternoon , This was in charge of Mr. Tucker , super intemlent of the round house. Down at Gibson , lie reported Sunday clothes and same at Lincoln , I'lattsnionth , Ne braska City and Ashland.

The Federal AuiliorltlcB Arresting Fnlie U'ltnesscN. The federal authorities nro after the plaintiff's witnesses in the case of Gross vs. the Union Pacific with a very sharp stick. It may be remembered that Gross , perc , sued tlio Lnion Pacilic for heavy lamagcs on account of the death ot Ids little son , who was run over by a freight train , Several witnesses for the plaintiff swore that they saw the boy knocked off the train by one of tlie company's brakemen - men , while the witnesses on the oilier side swore directly that the lad foil off. This latter state of facts was also proven at llio coroner's inquest by llio very wit nesses who at the trial swore in Gross' favor. The prand jury returned indictments against live of these wit nesses. One of them James Gross , was arrcstedlthrco weeks ago. Yesterday two more of thorn wore arrested and looked np in jail. Their nr.mes arc Charles and Theodore Caston , Warrants arc out for the arrest of two others , Charles Wasser- man and Kosa Smith , and it is thought that they will be run tothoground before another week passes.

Postmaster Coutant Thursday evening served notice upon the superintendent of the mail wagons which carry the mail to and from the postoffice and depots in this city , that it will be necessary to add another wagon to the number now in use. Three wagons are daily used , but since the transfer of tlio Missouri Pa cific triins to the St. Paul depot it lias been impossible to handle the mail with out a delay of sometimes as much as an hour. When the 11. & M. new line to Lincoln comes in , this didiculty will bo intensified. Mr. Coutant is going to in sist upon the increase demanded. The superintendent has already written the contractors , the Woodlcnf brothers , in Kansas. _ Mild Wcntlicr Mud. The crossing of Jackson and Seven tecnth streets holds out uncommon in ducements to persons bent on suicide. An unrutllcd sea of mud stretches away from curb to curb. Here and there the heels and toes of articles lloat on tlio sur face. The ever present small boy navi gates a raft from shore to shore , and cap tures many a dime from the unfortunates who reside on t'other sido. The cross ings taken it ] ) by llio graders months ago are scattered about the neighbor hood to rot or furnish kindling , while the residents appeal in vain for a footway. Even the police are heedless of protests against the towering ash heaps that fringe tlio curb line. A similar condi tion of mud , minus the ash piles , obtains on Jackson , east of Sixteenth , and on Leaven worth stteet , and it is hoped the council and street commissioner will give the residents the needed relief , oven if temporarily. Suing tlio Western Union , Charles W. Poor , of Lincoln , commen ced suit in the United States court ycsler- day against the Western Union , claim ing $ lf , > 25 damages. Ho alleges , in his petition , that ou November 11,1880 , ho entered into negotiations with the Grand Pacific Hotel company , of Nebraska City , to lease the hotel and purchase the furni ture. Through the failure of the West ern Union company to deliver a message from Nebraska City wired to him on No vember 14. the lease and furniture wore transferred to other parlies. On account of tills , Poor thinks he lias sustained dam ages in the amount named. Meat mul Milk Inspector , Candidates for tlie position of moat and milk inspector have already begun to present themselves , and they are much more numerous than it was ex pected they would bo. Nearly all of them have paid their respects to Coun cilman Kaspar , who introduced the ordinance - dinanco creating tlio olllco. who , it is known , has a preferred candidate for the position. If the lucky mortal who secures tlio appointment docs one-half of what the ordinance calls for , he will be one of the most useful and most busy men in this or any oilier city. Tlio ! M.1 . to Nebraska City. Richard Shannon , formerly one of the contractors in the public improvements of this city , came up from Nebraska City yesterday morning , where ho has a force of men engaged in preparing the way for tlio entry of the M.

A sister - tor of the child's mother has the little un fortunate now in charge , and snys that the mother has loft the town and her whereabouts are unknown , "Williams vs. WoodbriclKO.

Woodbridgo brothers lived np to their contract in every partic ular , and if Williams hud donojtho same , there would have been no trouble what ever. Woodbndgo brothers ollorcd to lot Williams havn the piano if he would pay the balance duo upon it , a fair prop osition , after the long time they huvo been waiting for their money. . 8. Storekeeper.
