Woolworlh , counsel for the horse railway company : Am secretary of the horse railway company. The number of passengers daily carried on our lines from the Union ; L'ucilic.dopot to Farnam street will reach from 1,500 to 1,800. Wo have sixty-two cars iu regular service , 450 horses and 105 men , outside of construction gang. Question What percentage of your earnings go to defraying expenditures ? Answer. Nearly CO per cent. Our expenses would , In sonio cases , bo in creased by the consummation of pro posed extensions. We carry from 10,009 to 18,000 passengers per diem. Cross-examination by General Cowin , who with Judge Lake represents the Cable Tramway company. We have a line on Loavonworth from Phil Sheridan street to Park avenue , nnd from Sixteenth to Loavcnworth. starting rit the viaduct. The motor line proposes to build along Lcavenworth street , and thov enjoined us. Wo propose to build Buutli on Sixteenth street and over the viaduct , which is suflicicnt for horse car service. Wo have a prospected line on Twentieth street , and put in crossings and curbs one year ago last summer , this year expect to make extension to fair grounds. Wo have a single track from depot to Farnam on Tenth struct. Cars on Tenth only run iu one direction from depot up into the city. Double track on Furiiam west from Tenth. Hulk of travel on Tenth street is from depots , passing up Furnaiu iu heart of city , the bulk get ting oft' between Tenth and postoiheo. On Twentieth , if the cable company builds , will parallel us from Cass to Cumluiug street , n distance of four blocks. Wo have double tracks there , cars going north on east track and south 'nninrrnt lrnit Hnllr fit nnrtn r1iTTTl'n over this stretch. That is a section where wo piok up the largest , percoutago of travel. Those arc the only two points. I'thlnk , where they 'propose to parallel us on sanio streets. \ \ oirun fifty cars reg ularly , average from $7 to $10 daily , about $8 now , and about 25 per cent lighter during the winter. It cost about f 7.50 per diem to run a car. \Y. > V. Marsh , treasurer of Horse RailWay - Way company , tcstllied : Juno receipts , Farnam street lines , something like $80,024.50 ; Park avenue lines , (0,080.40 ; trom tlouot to park. (83,010.55. Fifty to sixty per cent goes t0 , , expenditures. When our lines arn all complete and thoroughly systematized our expenses will not exceed 60 per cent. It will bo difticult to induce passengers to cross cable line to take horse cars. Per cent of .damages would bo to the two lines thus aU'ected 75 at least. Wo would lose a largo pro portion of the business. Don't know what building of Motor line costs. It would bo a clicap horse car railroad. It couldn't bo laid cheaper. Their rails run about 20 to 150 pounds to tbe yard. The injunction against our Leavonworth extension - tension bus not been argued. Wo chargo-flvo cents a passenger , with re duction for children. Cross-examination by Commissioner The Yttluo'ofilnirj.jlno on Tenth and Fnrnurarplant rutttoriul and all , is about f3,500. on1 an cstimato of $13,500 for con- * Btruction.per.mUo. Twentieth street line , between Cass and Curaiug , one-quarter of a mile , value , $2,500 , material and lay ing track. The damages that would no- ' crue by reason of the crossing at b'p in tersection of Farnam and Tenth , street , resolves itself into , the maintenance of said .crossing , " Invariably the party jvho cuts maintainsxtho crossing. Cross-examination by Cowin : The tor- rnlnitof our Hues are as follows : Thir teenth and Cuming line , Vintou and Six teenth , south , Thirty-sixth and Cuming ; Red line , Union Pacific depot , corner Lake and King and Patrick's addition ; Green line , tHanscom park , Lake and King ; Farnam and Park line , Uanscom park nnd Union Pacific depot ; Farnam aud Twenty-fourth street lino. Union i Pacific depot and Creighton college , on [ California street. ( The termini of the cable lines as far as projected arc as follows : Grace street , south along Twentieth , to Leaveuworth , froiuiTwontiuth east to Tenth on Dodge and Harney ; Tenth , south to depot , ou 'LtiaVc'nworth west to college. Of theses s * lines ( there are already in a statcjof com pletion those from Grace to Cuming.from Tohth to Twentieth and from Union Pa cific depot to llarnoy street. Rep. ) About one-luilf the expense in con structing lines ou Ninth and Tenth strcota was entailed by the paving , basing esti mate on cost of paying to-day. The cable crosses us on Thirteenth and Dodgo. The work of laying did.not in terfere with our receipts. They did it ut tiight , or all of it they could ? Woolworth re-examines : The work does not give us a very perfect line. There has , however , been considerable pains taken to make both lines perfect , and when entirely finished they may be all right. One crossing has just been put in , the other was put in weeks since. Work not in good condition so far as it infringe * ou our linos. Number of pas sengers who get off between Cass and Cuming readies from 1,200 to 1,600 daily , Wo would have extended our line on Twentieth if cable hadn't We had , ID fact , begun ours ; bad our crossings , etc. , all in. Their line is laid parallel witli our proposed extension , with their trackt one foot wider apart than ours. Corwm cross-examines : Have em ployed a man to make estimate of num. ' ber of passengers between given points Between Cass and Cuming is the busiesl part of our road. Those are important rcsidcnco streets and just far cnougl away to induce people to use the cars. Q. Mr. Marsh , on Twentieth street from Cass to Cuming , where the cable folks propose to parallel your line , whai would you say if they would offer to pui in double track and give your company privilege Jo use itt It would do awaj with the necessity of four tracks.you see If they should do this , could you use it A.-We could. Q. Would your company be willing t < dothat ? A. I have no authority to answer. k Q. Well , tbcp , as treasurer , stock Bolder and director , would you vote t < accept men a proposition t ' A. I am always willing to do what I "f. Iliad , w to-put in the track am Ice U a * available for you as for our JVM * Cowin Oh , I'm only an attorney , you know. I say If they make it. A , I think I would. Q. Well , don't you know that proposi tion was made to President Frank Mur phy ? A. No sir ; never heard of it , save when I , once hinted at such an arrangement myself. > Mr. lUirnhnm examines. In case horse car lines were cut on below Tenth and Fnrnam , what would bo the effect ? A. We'll ' lese 1,800 passengers dally. Yrs , tlio depot is the terminus of nil our lines , excepting the Thirteenth , which goes within a couple of blocks. By trans fer. without extra charge , wo carry pas sengers from any part of the city to the deuot. C. B. Hustin , secretary of the cable lines , testified : We made Mr. Murphy a proposition relative to building tracks on Twentieth between Cass and dimming , but nothing definite came of it. The cable company Is still willing to do this. Yes ; horses can travel on cable lines. With Mr. Uustm's testimony , the hear ing of the evidence closed , and tlio com mission is now engaged in its delibera tions , the testimony of the cable line hav ing all been taken by deposition in the injunction suit of of tlio horse car com- panyngainst them one year ago. The commission will finish its labors this liftornoon , but will , not promulgate any decision arrived at ! For this the public must wait upon the courts. At 4 ( o'clock yesterday afternoon the commission filed its report in the ollico of the clerk of the United States circuit court. Tiio report was scaled and will be opened in Judge Dandy's court this morning. _ TIlbCOUHTB. \VImt Was Done Ucforo tbo Judaea To-day.

Police Court Pointers , There was not much stir in police cir cles yesterday morning , and the work be fore Judge Berka was of a lighter order than it has boon for two weeks.

The county commissioners wore yester day morning working'wlth renewed inter est in .the matter of equalizing the assess ments. They had nearly covered the en tire county and expected to find a number of omissions of the lists in addition to those which have already been tnado public. These omissions bare been charged to the clerk by whom they were made. It IB claimed by friends of the lat ter that such mistakes are almost un avoidable , because of the rush in the office , and the inability of a comparison being made because the law requires the books to bo delivered to the assessors at about the time the clerical work upon them is finished , thui preventing all cbaucca of comparison , Street. A disgraceful sot of tUtcuffa took place this morning on Douglas street near Hib- bcn & King's restaurant.

There has been a great deal said in the papers about the lots purchased by Harrison risen on nnd near the Bellevue rifle range , and it now looks as if the matter would bo settled. This morning ho ex changed the lot , which lies right iu the line of vision on the range with Mr. T. A. Creigli for property in another locality , though ho still retains possession of the other lots in question. Quo of these parcels lies to the west of the range , and even if the line of the latter should be changed the bullets would still pass , Harrison risen says , close to his place. 'This prop erty has been fenced up by H. T. Clark , who , Harrison claims , has no right what ever to it. The third lot , northeast of the targets , Harrison still holds. What will bo done with the latter'parcels , Harrison says , depends uuon H. T. Clark. TUB BOAKD DIVIDED. Buctiel and Southard Will Mot Join With the Mayor. If A reporter for the BEE yesterday morn' ing asked W. F. Bcchol , one of the three members , what he proposed to do with regard to exacting $1,000 before granting liquor licenses. " 1 will stand by the record , " ho said , "and vote to grant permits to all appli cants who pay the amount now required by ordinance , provided they furnish a fi.-itisfuctory bond , and no protest be made against them. " C1TV CLr.HK SOUTHARD. This gentleman was asked the same question. > . ' . 'I will act as the ordinances of the city require , which is to vote for the granting of applications on the same conditions which we have all along re quired. " Messrs. Bcchol and Southard compose a majority of the license board , aud if the mayor persists in exacting $ 1,000 down for licenses , ho will be opposed by thcso gentlemen. The mayor's recourse then must be the courts. lilPTON'8 DKNIAU , Ho Has Not , It Seeing , Sold the House to Armour. Thomas J. Lipton , the celebrated Scottish provision dealer , has arrived iu town in time to deny the truth of the statements which had been circu lated concerning the sale of his house ut the stock yards to Armour. This rumor was based ho claims upon the seemingly friendly relations which existed between himself nnd Armour. It was true that ho was selling the product of his house to Armour , aud that ho was using Ar mour's refrigerator cars m shipping this product. But thcso facts had nothing to do with the sale as mentioned. Mr. Lipton - ton could sell to any otnor buyer in Chicago cage as well as to Armour. So far as ho know.Armour had not made up his mind to come to Omaha , at all events ho had not bought the Lipton house. Mr. Lipton visits this country once every year and calls upon all with whom ho has deal ings. This is his second visit to Omaha in the past fortnight. Hull Notes.
