POLICE PAKIIULES. What the Hccrotnry or tlie Conmil - lon Jlai to Bay. Howard H. Smith , member and secre tary of the police and lire commission , was met by n reporter of the HER Inst cvcnlntr. It is unnecessary to state that very shortly after the questions of the prevailing temperature were passed something was said about the difficulty between the council and the commis sion. "It places us In a very embarrassing position , " said Mr. Smith. "Wo have done everything that wo thought was proper to conciliate matters. In my opinion this trouble has arisen from a feel ing among certain conncllmcn against the commission. It is not Scary nor antl-Suavy , it is oouncilmcii against the commission. To-day , continued Mr. Smith , "I met Councilman .Ford and ho said that there were three now men appointed on the force who were entirely unlit for the po sition. 1 asked him why ho did not make his objections before the appointment and the matter would then bo con sidered. " "II the charges against Chief Sorivoy , " asked the reporter , "had boon made oc- fore his appointment would ho have been appointed t" "Most emphatically no , sir , " replied Mr. Smith. " "If the charges were proved to bo true. lou must recollect that Mr. Scavcy came to us recommended by some ot t'.ic oldest nnd best citi/uns in the city. There WAS no objection to Ills appointment and wo iscd our discretionary powers. It is very trtnge to mo that before n man is ap- minted nothing is said about him but as eon IH he irois an ollico the whole city is ifter him. Why do not people who have hargcs against applicants for position nako their protests against certain ap- loinlmonts they know of before they are nude and we will consider them. Our lid so fat Is to have the applicant como jotore us. Wo have his recommenda- ions as to character , etc. , and where hero are no objections what do you ex pect us to do ? " How about the nineteen appointees ately made ? Did they all appear before ho board ? " "Yes , sirl and we examined their phy- ical condition as far as wo could very losely , while at the same time having heir recommendations. " "How many applicants were there ? " "Over one hundred , and we selected hose who wore the best men In ouropm- on. " "Do you intend to make any discharges rein the old force ? " "Wo certainly do. In fact the old orco is not in existence.Vu have 2alled upon every man who has been and is a policemen to make an application for appointment and I think hey all have done so. Wo have made 10 appointments except the chief and his Icptity chiefs , Cormac and Green. Wo lonsldur all the old force subject to ap- lointmcnt under the commission now. " "How about dispensing with the scr- ice of some of the old force ? Will there e many let out ? " "Yes : a great many. " "Will you give the number or the lames ? " " 1 cannot. The names are already In he hunds of Chief Seavey. He has } cen ordered by the commission to nn- ounce them to the policemen on Mon day morning at 7 o'clock. " "Aro the men to be discharged to suf- or their 'exits' for cause ? " "Principally. Wo have examined the coords of every policeman now on duty n the city , and wo think wo know what o are doing. " "How about increasing the force ? " "What can wo Uo ? Wo are talked in every stop wo make. For instance , some $9,000 has been ex pended from the police hinds so far. Ac- ording to our estimate there will bo jnly $32,000 for the rest of the year which is hardly enough to support the irosent system ofpolice , not to say any- hine about the mon we intend to havo. " So suburban taxpayers have no'show1 under the present condition of affairs ? " "Mono at all considering the present ituation of affairs. " "What is to bo done then ? " "Nothing that I can see but to bring it to ho courts und wo are working that way now. In my opinion the citizens are bo soming disgusted with this cmbrogllo aid want it decided ono way or the other. " Good Advice. "That corner sold for $1,500 six years ago. Now it's held at $17,000. If I hadn't been a fool I might be independ ent now. " "Yes. and six years hence you will say the same thing about South Omaha cor- icrs. Think of the army of mon those mmcnso packing houses will employ who must live near their work. That proncrty is the best investment that can possibly bo made. Call on C. .

For some time a suit of a somewhat novel character has been pending in the district court , which , by the decision of Judge Wakcly , has now como to u linal termination. The claim was made by John A. Dodge that u conspiracy was en tered into between Helen E. Freeman nnd Lizzie Dodge , the wife of the com plainant , for the purpose of swindling him nut of his property , and to that end , he was induced to make a deed to Miss Freeman of all his real estate in Omaha , he supposing at the time that the paper ho executed was only a mortgage. Upon the trial , it was denied by Mre. Dodge , who was subsequently divorced from the complainant , that any con spiracy was ever formed , or that Mr. Dodge had been in any manner imposed upon or wronged , it was alto contended by Mrs. Dodge nnd Miss Freeman that the deed executed to Miss Freeman was made in good faith and for the full nnd fair value of the real estate conveyed as jt was then considered. After a full hear ing of the case before Judge Wakely a decision was rendered in favor of Mrs. Dodge and Miss Freeman and the petition of the plaintiff was dismissed at his costs.

Underwood & Co. , of Chicago , have concluded that they will not locate ns packing house mon In Omaha. Their reasons are that tlio title to certain portions tions of the * property about to bo trans ferred is not good. Judge Lake , who had charge of the abstract proceedings , cor roborates this. Ho says that through the property about to be transferred there are streets and alloys Uid out which be long to the city , nnd in fact some of the packing house buildings are on this city property. Mr. Underwood telegraphed him that his part ner would not accent any transfer as long as the least cloud was on the title. "Cannot this bo remedied in some way ? " asked a reporter of the BKE. "Only by the city council vacating these srctets and alleys and I donotthinK thov can do so under the now charter which only provides for the widening , ex tending , etc. of streets , but says nothing about vacating streets. " "It is reported."said the reporter "that a petition has been circulated by the residents ot Park Wild against the establishment of any packing house near there. " "I have heard so too , " said Judge Lake. "Mr. Kountze is very active In the opposition. " "So you think the Underwood & Co. packing house is 'oil' ? " "Yrs sir ; and 1 am sorry for it ; I am in favor of having all the big invest ments wo can in this city. " J. D. Her was also seen by the reporter. Ho was rather wrathy and expressed himself quite forcibly on newspapers m general and reporters in particular. The substance of his remarks was that if anyone ono in the world wanted to do anything they must keep aloof from newspaper1 men. Ho forgot that newspapermen in this country were especially selected out of 50,000,000 people to find out just what people do when the "doings" were of public interest. Mr. Her said that the negotiations between himself nnd Air. Underwood had not as yet fallen through. Ho was arranging matters with the parties. "How did the nowpapors injure you , Mr. Her ? Didn't they always uphold thcso packing house enterorises ? " "Oh. yes , but you see the publication started Kountze and others with their petition. Now. the papers said they would kill 4,000 iiogjj a day at the now packing house. That is all bosh. You : now the Boyd capacity was only 1,500 , ml these men would not como near hat. " How about the title to the property ? " It is true that there are itrcets and alleys through it nit that difficulty can bo arranged. 1 lave consulted authorities on the subject nd it can bo .settled amicably. " Mr. Bcchol , president of the council , was seen and asked if ho had heard of he ditliculty about the transfer of the iler property to Underwood. Ho said he tad , and tint question was an important me as far as the vacation of streets and , lloys were concerned. He had informal alks about the matter with some of the members of the council , but so far they 'iad made up no opinion. They had con- tilted City Attorney Webster , and ho aid that if the streets nnd alloys were aid out under the old town site aw they could bo vacated. If .he property in question was an addition ; o the city , no vacating of streets or al- eys therein can be made by the council. On investigation it was ascertained that , ho property in question was on the 'original plat , " but what will bo done by ho council cannot at present bo deter mined. Mr. Kountze could not bo found , but it s understood that hois fighting the pack- ne house location very strenuously. iVhat the outcome of this matter may bet t is hard to toll. IHE "OUD1NO" ARMY.
