lu ttiu afternoon the board devoted almost
Us entire attention to hearing protests The
room was p&ckcd to suffocation with docply
interested saloonists , and the packing ex
tended far out into the adjoining corridor
With the exception ot Mayor Uroatch , whoso
little red face glowed like u setting sun , ana
nervously clouded itself In a sickly blue huro
of cigar smoke , the countcuuncos of the com
missioners ueemed perfectly ut ease uud
evinced u stolid devotion to the task that
was at baud
Catherluo Keulaod was tbo first individual
to bo pranced within the rail Calhorlne has
a llttlo snuggery at 601 North Sixteenth
street , wboro she keeps a boarding house
A strip of calico Is drawn dowa over the bar
on Sunday , but otherwise the place is kept
wido-opon. After asking tnauy Questions
the board decldod that Catherine might run
the boarding house part of her concern but
not tbo bar attachmout
> Max Scbroeder was refused a license for
1723 St Mary's ovonuo , for the reason that
he already has tnroo places provided for in
tbo license line
> Public policy was the reasot which the
board gave for declining togiveCbrls Jensen
a license to ruu a place at 503 North Four
tenth street durlug the next twelve months ,
The saloon is only about fifty feet from Cass
street school , and the board think that too
close for the sake of the children's moraU
A reconsideration ot the refusal to allow
William Darst to ruu Ills llttlo Annex at
224 North Sixteenth street was entertained
Somebody got it into his head that William
had wino rooms In connection with his place
Darst came to the front on call and explained
the situation to the probable ' satisfaction of
tbo board
After hearing the protests the board wont
into executive session , which occupied about
half mi hour The result was as follows :
The application of August Schultz , 123
South Eleventh , was refused on the grounds
of selling after midnight
Leon Kopold failed to got n renewal because -
cause it was claimed he sold liquor on elec
tion day and then tried to bribe un ofllcer not
to tell on him

Word was received by the board that the
war department at Washington hnd frowned
upon the piotests madoby tbo oflicors nnd
other soldiers at Fort Omaha uguinst having
saloons there , the department saying that
the army folxs nt the Fort oxcecded their
authority , or words to that effect
Altogether , there have been about seventy
licenses granted thus far by the board , and
twelve refused This leovos about one hun >
dred and forty yet to bo acted upon There
have boon 222 applications made Last year
348 licenses were gran ted Therefore , it
now looks as if there would bo about forty
less saloons in Omaha this year than there
were last _
Tlio Park Commissioners
At a meeting of the park commissioners
hold Thursday afternoon a proposition was
received from Mr Snyder in which ho
agreed to donate to the city six acres owned
by him ndjolnlng the tract ofTored byDr. .
Miller , Lymun Itlehardsen ' and ethers for
park purposes Mr , Snyder desires to reserve -
servo the right of a road across hl | tract
After the regular business of tbo meeting
the matter of granting the right of way
across tbo corner of Hanscom park to the
Omaha street railway company was taken
up and discussed at length Judge Lake
held that the commissioners had no right to
grant tbo desired right of way as that power
rested entirely with the council ,
Dr , Miller said the board would
have been unanimously in favor of
granting the right of way , but it
had no power to do so in the face of tbo ob
jections of the donor ana the veto of the
maypr , That euded the matter " said the
doctor , but I want to sav that I had no ob
jection to the company crossing the park ,
and have not had since tbo outset 1 bo-
Hove It would be for the publio accommoda
tion and without iujury to the park "
'Jliey Were Kiiciicrod
J. H. Millard's toador feelings for the
Douglasstroet bridge corporation were badly
Jarred when he road what scorned to him
unjust attacks upon its grasping , soulless
uaturo in reports of the case recently
concluded before Judge Dundy where
in certain parties got Judgoment
for something llko (5,000which roust be
paid Said he ; "It was not u question of
desire on our part to shirk apy debt we may
huvo incurred These fellows were never
lobbyists of ours and wo certainly owed
thorn nothing on that score Wo never
needed any lobbyists Our fight
at Washington ugainst the Nebraska

They performed some worir , amount
ing to probably $300 , but wo paid
then $500. In bringing the Buit for { 5,000 ,
however , they contended that this amount
was only a contingent fco
'Tl'o truth is we were outhered , because
oursltorney failed to give tbo matter his at-
tenti n nnd let it go by default Ube other
aide i.aturnlly took advantage of his negli
gence , jumped in and got their judgment before

THE NBWOASIIjE MINES
What KflVct Tliey Will Have on
Otnntia's Coal Supply
The coal dealers of Omaha are not very
jubilant Tbo amount and extent of cold
wcath' ' thus far falls to satisfy the full bent
of their pleasure The demands upon them
for fuel , while comparatively largo , fell
short of expectations ; consequently no occa
sion has yet arise to justify an advance in
prices Tbo cold snap last week caused a
slight incrcaso of activity for two or three
days , and dealers were ucpt busy filling or
ders , but no such thing as a run against the
supply constantly on hand can bo hoped for
this winter , nor ever again , for that matter
Within thirty days Omaha will bo made
secure against the possibilities ot another
coal famine except in the event of some ox-
trcmely unavoidable circumstance How
ever , an enormous quantity is required to
keep all the blgongincs , furnaces and fami
lies now conccntratsd hero going
The average price at present Is about $9
per ton , and it has not varied from that fig
ure within a your
As soon as the Newcastle minesin Wyom
ing commence to bo worked , which will bo
as early ns February 1 , it Is hoped this price
may bo reduced slightly Predictions are
made that the Newcastle company will do-
llver coal la Omaha at 0.50 and may bo SO
per ton The Union Pucillo charges (7 for
its Kock Springs coal This price never
varies The company's ' ofllclala say that
they can not ship it in for any less , though if
the Burlington , which is to handle all the
Newcastle output , makes a tli rata they will
have to meet it
All reports say that the Newcastle coal is
equal In ovary respect to that mined at lloclc
Springs , aud there Is enough in sight to
supply the entlro state of Nebraska for ten
vouis For consumption in Oinala the
Union Pacific is supplying five carloads a <
day.But
But this is & very small portion of the
amount used , as much tnoro comet from <
southwestern Missouri and Kansas , con
siderable from Colorado , some from Iowa ,
lots of hard coal from Pennsylvania , and
Illinois is not loft out
It has been intlmatod that tbo Burlington
company , or rather men oMclally connected
with the Bnrllngton road , owned the New
castle mines , but investigation proves that
such Is not the case Kilpatrick Brothers Si
Collins , the railroad contractors of Ueatrico ,
are tbo solo owners , except J. B. Weston ,
who discovered the mines and holds a small
interest They have been putting up a lot
of oxponslvo machinery and expect to bo
ready for operations on a largo scale within
the next four weeks The Burlington is
interested to this extent , that it will have a
monopoly on transportation to market of hit
coal taken out at that point Before extend
ing their line into the region where this
vast crop of fuel lies the ofllclals made a
thorough Investigation and satisilod'thom-t
selves that there were no risks to run

X Now Licgal Point
A question of criminal procooduro , nnd ono
never befoio passed upon in Nebraslco , which
will bo of Intorcst to tbo practitioner in that
brunch of the legal profession , was ruled
upon by Judge Clurkson of the district court
a day or two Binco
vV H. Martin was arrested , chnrgod with
grand larceny , and given a preliminary ex
amination before the police Judge at South
Omaha by whom , in default ot ball , ho was
committed to the county Jail to await trial at
the next teim of tlio district court Martins
attorney filed a potitlon for and ubtainod a
writ of habeas corpus upon the ground that
the evidence upon which the potitloner was
bound over was insufficient to establish
"probnblo cause to believe him guilty of
the offense charged As tbo testimony given
before the examining magistrate had not
been preserved , the nttornoy sought to have
the witnesses called and their testimony
beard do novo by Judge Clarkson , The as
sistant county nttornoy strenuously objected
to such n proccduro us not contomolatcd or
warranted by the Nebraska statutes relating
to habeas corpus After argument upon sev
eral odcuslons the court finally held that the
witnesses might bo called and the hearing
proceeded with , which hearing was had in
room 2 of the district court yesterday and
Murtln was released '
Judge Ciarkson'a ruling in effect gives a
prisoner confined In Jail to await trial nn ap
peal , by the writ of habous corpus , from tlio
action of the oxauiining magistrate upon a
showing to the court that sufficient testi
mony has not been elicited at his prelimi
nary examination to show probable cause "
The county attorney will take the matter to
the supreme court , dooming the precedent
established of sufficient importuueo as to ro-
qulro either the upproval or dissent of that
tribunal
