The lull m the real estate business anil
the comparatively small number of trans
fers during mo late excessively hoi
weather has made it necessary for the
county clerk to reduce his staff in tin
recorder's ollico. Several of the employes
were laid off yesterday , and unless tin
business of the ollleo increases shortly i
nuicber of others must .also seek othei
fields and pastures new in the way o

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. . Mayno ,
solo agent , and secure a lot. You won't
regret it. "

Miss Freeman's Case.
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.

THAT PACKING CHOUSE.
A Hitch In the Underwood Negotia
tions liooian-Up.
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.
How tlio Earth Is Being Shifted in
Suburban Places.
Not to mention the grading of streets
within a stone's throw of the postolllce ,
his kind in the outskirts is simply pro
digious. Drive north or south , cast or
west and ono can sec teams and teams ,
crapors and scrapers , nnd horses and
mon makm "Old Mother Earth" know
hat her position is transitory. Who
would some time ago that the beautiful
hill owned by A , E. Tonzalm , flip great
railway man and Boston capitalists , lo
cated between Hurt and California strcrts
and just east of Brown street , would bo
"evened ? Its trees so valuable on a sec-
ion like this whcra trees are really of
exceptionablogrowth , are being cut down
and the grader is getting his "wont in"
for leveling purposes. On the corner of
Lowe anu Mercer avenue ex-County
Commissioner B. P. Knight , with his big
machine , seventeen teams and seventeen
men , lias excavated 55,003 cubic yards of
dirt and transferred the name to a filling
placo. all within u space of three and
one-half months. Ho is now engaged in
grading Underwood avenue on the Pat
rick farm , in the shade of the old home
stead "Happy Hollow. " This street is to
bo eighty foot wide and ono and a naif
miles long , reaching from Vista street to
Mavliold. There are two of thn great ma
chine dirt raisers in operation nnd two
wheeled hcrapor gangs. Fifty men and
thirty-two teams are now at work there ,
but the force will bo increased to-mor
row. It will be pushed , too , for Mr.
Knight intends to nave it completed by
the middle of September. He is also at
work on Eureka street in Walnut Hill ,
just west of the Bell Line railroad , and
will follow the latter work with the grad
ing of Mercer avenue , from Lowe avenue
to the junction of the former avenue with
Eureka street. The grade of the junc
tion of Lowe and Mercer avenues will bo
lowered three and one-halt foot , Mr.
Knight also has a force of men at
work on the Bellevue road fix
ing the grade from F street
to the south county lino. In fact it is
giading , grading all around and a spirit

A Heavy Failure
C. E. Maync hasfailed to sell all'thoso
beautiful residence lots in Brigg's Place
on Harnoy , Farnam , Douglas , Dodge ,
Capitol avenue and Davenport streets ;
has some splendid lots left. They are
rare bargains.
C. E. Mat/nc has failed to dispose of all
the South Omaha Syndicate huuls. Only
a few choice business and residence lots
left , however.
G. E. Maync has failed to raise the price
of acre property in Benson. It is still on
the market at original ligurcs and is the
only acre property reached by street
cars.
What's In a Name ?
Erasttis Wyman has made Statcn
Island the most beautiful suburb of Now
York. Erasing Benson has made the
town of Benson the most bcautifnl resi
dence suburb of Omaha. Had their
outlandish names anything to do with it ?
Dr. Hubert removed to Granite Block.
