SPECULATING IN GARBAGE ,
Another Obaptor on the Sanitary Commis
sioner's Financial Oombhntions ,
HIS PARTNERSHIP WITH NELSON ,
Net Kuriiliitcs from the Oily for Hnul-
li > 3 I'o.idVnlnnlH of Nearly Olio
Hundred nail Forty Dollars
lars 1'cr Month.
The reply of the sanitary commissioner to
' tbo charges mndo in TUB Him was severely
'criticized yesterday ovonlne In all parts
of the city , moro especially because It ovnded
some of the most serious charges mode
against him. The burden of tbo nflidavlt ,
however , was nn attack upon John Nelson ,
late cesspool cleaner.
i The latter bad stated Ir. an Interview in
Tun BII : that the sanitary commissioner had
demanded ? 7i5 from him as bis share of the
proceeds from work done at the Walnut Hill
school. The sanitary commtsslouor.howovor ,
floes not state what right bo had to demand
875 , nor docs ho deny the charge Nelson
makes that ho did demand that sum.
Neither does bo deny ho told Nelson that
When 875 should bo paid bo ( Morrlssor )
would consider whether bo would sell N'cl-
BOII ono of bis $ r > books which would enable
iiltn to deposit refuse on tbo dump ,
c The sanitary commissioner nlso aovs that
Nelson deposited "tho foul matter from the
Waluut II111 school within the city limits. "
Kelson In ronly says the matter w.is only
water nnd that It was unloaded In n cieek
liractic.illy on the dumpwithin twenty feetof
the rlvur , ns near the bank us it was safe to go
because the manure of which the dump is
composed was full of pit boles occasioned by
hidden Humes.
Morrlsscy nlso refers to tbo fact
of two men xvhora ho had protected
from over charges , but it happened
that tlioso two men are personal
Irlends. Ho docs not toll , however , of
liow many others bo bas befriended
nor of the hundreds of people
who nro compelled to pay $1 more for sani
tary work than it is worth , in order to pay
tribute to him.
That the ofllco of the sanitary commissioner
has been used "for all there Is In It , " that
ofllclul docs not deny. It was this preed
Which led to the light between him and Nel
son. It was this thirst lor patronage which
Jed the commissioner to enter a
partnership with Nelson. In this partner
ship the commissioner did not invest ono
dollar. In It ho had nothing to lose , but In It
Lo could mnkoj list o.s much as Nelson did
who supplied the teams , wagons and men ,
and In fact did all the work.
Thcia facts are attested by the following
excerpts from the contract in the sanitary
commissioner's hand-writing , which Mr. Ncl-
Bon still possesses :
Kck'lnnlni ? AiiRiist 1 , IP90 , wo. the nnrtor-
BlKiiou. iTiink II. Jlorrlsoy and John NcNou ,
I'litur Into the following articles of n.iitncr-
fclilp nprueinont :

fits.Huld
Huld Prank It. Morrlssev Is to divert to mild
John Nelson all business which ho ean con
sistently wltli agreement * made with Nelson's
content.
In all transactions In connection with the
business of cons-pool , closet and vault clean
ing , said I'mnk It. Morrlsspy nnd John Nelson
are to bo equal partners and standby their
common Interest.
This agreement was witnessed by J. B.
Bennett.
The partnership came to an end about
Christmas time , when Nelson was compelled
to resort to the $25 books of which he holds
ho purchased some notwithstanding the sani
tary commissioner says ho did not.
The $ j books continued to bo purchased
by tbo other cesspool men .nnd every ono of
those books meant f'jr > for tbo commissioner ,
Without any expense to , Mr. Morrlssoy save
for the printing which was a moro bagatelle.
The same ono-sldcd agreement almost which
the commissioner had made with Nelson
he has also made with Johnson , tbo dead
'animal 'hauler. The latter hauled the nnl-
knals for their skins or hides , and makes nil
ho can. The commissioner Is paid , however ,
tor the hauling , cither by the owner of the
" Animal or the city. The practice of owners
tvnying for the hauling of their dead animals ,
however , it would socra , is not a common
ono. The city notwithstanding is good
for it because the comptroller's books
ehow that , for this species of work
during tbo last ten months , the sanitary com
Inljsioncr bas boon paid between $1,300 and
$1,400. This is an average of $130 per month
for dead animals alone , to say notb'ing of tbu
cess-pool and garbage revenues. The com
missioner says that he could almost mnko an
Bflldavlt that ho has not averaged $150 per
moath slnco bo has been In ofllco. * This
woula Imply that fewer than twenty loads of
of night soil were deposited at the dump In
Bay of tbo last ten months and that ,
there was no garbage * ut all thrown
there by the men ho bos author
ized for the purpose. This of course
Is considered ridiculous In the light of every
day oxperlcucotho commissioner's admission
nnd his articles of agreement with Nelson ,
indeed , while th.at partnership lasted , Nelson
hays Mornssoy's sthnro could not have boon
less than from ? 100 to $1S. > per month. On
the comptroller's books nUois an entry show
ing that the commissioner has collected from
the city $85 for hauling uwav the mauuro ol
the police patrol stable. This work was dona
by some other person but the commissioner
came in for his liberal share.
Another source of the commissioner's In
come is from garbage. For this , on good au
thority , ho exacted a trlbuto of 25 per cent ,
notwithstanding that a load could not brine
the owner of the wagon moro than $3 or ? 1 ai
.tho most.
The commissioner says his $35 dump tick
ets have been discontinued slnco tbo passage
jf the revised charter and then charges
Tin ; UKE with Inaccuracy when it suggests
that the tinkering of the charter legislated
him out of ofllco. The commissioner has evi
dently lost valuable time In ascertaining bis
status as a member of the board of health.
The city clerk bos certified copies of the
charter , nnd In those ho will flna the same
.alleged inaccuracies of Tim Dm : which good
* lawyers hold have deprived the sanitary com
Uilsaloncr of bis occupation.
TDK BRK is in receipt of a number of com
plaints regarding the manner In which the
sanitary work of tbo city has boon performed.
Ono of tbo complaints Is appended.
T. J. Tooloy nu attorney called at Tun BEP
ofllco yesterday morning and stated that ho
represented Miles & Thompson of 1001 Far-
naiii street , and that ho wished to make a
statement with regard to the way tbo saul
tary commissioner was doing his business
Ho said that Messrs. Miles & Thompson
were given charge of ton houses to collect
the rents , etc. A day or two after they were
served with a notlco that the cesspools
would have to be cleaned. Finally arrange
mcuU were made with a man named Cole to
do tbo work ,
A few days after this occurred Lazarus ani
Cole , or a man representing thorn , nroicntei
n bill for $ SO. claiming that they bad cleaned
ton pools and taken out twenty loads. Mr
Tooley claims that three of these pools bad
not bocn used for six months and vero per
fectly diy. On finding this out Mr. Tooloy
called to sco Mr. Frank K. Morrissey , the
sanitary commissioner , and the latter clalmec
that the men employed to do the cleaning had
turned In twenty loads that night , Mr.
Morrlssoy sola ho would look into the matter
however , and later ho wrote Messrs , Miles A
Thompson a letter in which bo stated tha
there were seven pools that had been
. cleaned and that their total capacity was
J. about eight hundred cublo feet and
Ibat the actual number of loads taken
out was sixteen , tickets for the same having ,
been received by the dump master. Ho fur
ther staled that , as the legal price was 10
puts per cublo foot , total would amount to
30 , but that , as It was agreed that $4 per load
hould bo charged , bo would sign a receipt In
ull upon their sending him a check for 14
Allies it Thompson having already paid WO
in account ) .
Mr. Tooloy further stated that bis clients
lid not mean to pay n cunt moro. Ho consid
ered that the ccsspooltncn had taken off only
lovoii loads , certainly not moro than nlno.
They only bad throe teams thcro nnd ceased
vorklnr nt midnight , whereas it was claimed
by them that they worked all night.
In conclusion Tooley said that the claim of
Lararus & Cole would not bo paid by his
clients taut that the latter would lake legal
slorn very shortly and the matter would bo
fully Investigated In the courts.
"Why,1' said u leading attorney yesterday ,
'should tbu city council barter away the
rights of the city to the sanitary commission
er I Under what debt Is the city to that ofll-
ctall What did be do for It that ho should
jo allowed to biped the people for his own ad
vantage ! Since bo has got Into ofllco what
aus ho done but bleed them ! Ho seems to
take pleasure In announcing that ho U In the
ofllco for that purpose solely and I believe It.
Tor doing such work us bo should but does
not do. n salary of $100 per month would suf-
Ice. Then you would gel a man wno would
work. Tbo sanitary commissioner
lees not work at all. Whoever
icard of him walking along tbo
streets looking after a violation of tbo sani
tary laws except to benollt himself ) The
policemen nro tuo health ofllcers and they nro
doing work ho should bo doing. The watch-
lion at the dump bavo been Increased in order
that no load of rubbish may bo deposited day
) r night for which ho does not receive his
'cc. Why should ho bo allowed a feel Why
not pay him n salary ! Why should ho bo
necuniarlly Interested In rufuso gathering !
( t leads to deception and fraud and If the
cc-iucll Is a council of the poonlo It will Im
mediately afford the relief which the people
demand. "

The barbers were booked for a mooting In

svenlng , but failed to hold ono. Not a slnglo

Union , was nt tbo hall , and said that no
further effort would bo made to reorganise

Four meetings have been called and they
lave all failed on account of non-nttcndaneo.
The labor union tropic are afraid that tbo

Nothing more will probably bo done In tbo

AJIVSKJIEXTS.
Yesterday was tbo first appearance of the
United States murlno band in Omaha , and
tbo Justly celebrated organization was wel
comed by largo audiences at tbo Coliseum
botb matlnoo and evening.
For a century nearly the marine band ,
wblcb Is now enjoying its lint extended
leave , lias flgurod in tbo festal life
of Washington , and bos assisted
nt tbo inauguration of every presi
dent slnco Jefferson. It bas been ono
of tbo great attractions to tourists doing tbe
national capital , and It has been an unfailing
source of delight to tbu residents of tbo "City
of Maenlficont Distances. "
Tbe'Miirlno b.iud enjoys the distinction of
being the only strictly representative no
tional baud supported by tbo government ,
and It Is with no small degree of patriotism
tbo assertion In ninilu mat it Is by far tbo
best organization that has been beard In tbo
WMt.
Technically considered the playing of tbo
band , so far as accuracy of note and purity
of tone nro concerned , is the perfection of
conceited music. The shading and tbo ex
pression brought out by the skill of tuo di
rector , Mr. Sousn , are as perfect as can ba
obtained without tbo aid of strings , tbo wood
winds furnishing the light and graceful
touches , which BO beautifully mark the dis
tinction between orchestra and - band. And
.vet , with nil the ability and acknowledged
skill of the band and tuo incomparable lead
ership of Air. Sousa , the programme given
nt tbo matluco was not up to the
standard of excellence which the jicoplo
of Omulm bed been led to expect. Tuo selec
tions chosen for the afternoon wcro mostly
light and airy compositions , giving llttlo
opportunity for the display of those preeminent
nent qualities which have been distinguish
ing characteristics of the organization for
nearly an hundred years.
Among the gems , however , was Schubert's
unfinished symphony , a peculiarly con
structed composition , in which the wind in
struments supplied the place of strings wltn
excellent effect , Mr. Henry Jaeger's lluto
solo , "Ln Sounnmbulo , " was delightfully
played , the soloist displaying an artistic con
ception of thnsclcctlon thoroughly muslclanly.
"Tho Damnation of Faust" was , as might
have boon expected , received with marked
favor , because Its rendition deserved It. But
the band nppearod to best advantage In "Syl
via" by Dellbcs , utono poem which is'a
classic of tbo florid , descriptive school. Its
rendition had the true atmosphere of the
southland about it und moro than anything
else showed the vcrsatllltv of the director
who has yet to touch middle manhood. But
its beauty , its rhythmic liow was quite lost
sight of In the composition which followed it
entitled "Tho Stag Party. " a selection v bicb
did llttlu honor to tbo organization.
The vocnl soloist at the matinou and even
ing was Mile. Docca , and it is with a feeling
of pride that wo can proclaim her an Ameri
can. The future that is before this wonder
fully talented musician cannot bo gauged.
There Is no singer now on the concert stage
on this side the ocean who can In any
way compete with her. She stands alone
the accepted coloraturo singer of America ,
and borne of her notes , especially In the upper
register , are marvelous , the young woman
easily touching E above with an ease that
scorns incredible. Her legato singing is also
excellent so far ns phrasing is concerned
nnd certain cfleets of diminuendo , of
echoes which she gives are quito nmu/ing.
But Miss Dcccn should not attempt folk
songs , her singing of the "Swnneo Kiver"
being a disappointment , tt say the least.

Still the memory of"Porlo du Brczll" by
David will qulto ovetpbjadow nny deilclcnclcs
which appeared In tno old southern melody ,
for It was the triumph of the concert. The
programme Riven by > the bind last evening
was much morq pretensions than
that of the nftorrtoon nnd 5,000 people
have better defined ldoa& of what good muslo
U this morning , than thoj had before they
listened to the matchless playing of the
Marino band.
Wagner was represented by his overture
from "Illenzl , " which was faultlessly given.
"Tho Pearl Fishers , " by Bl/et , a gem in
composition , qulto won tbo apprecia
tion o.f tno nudlcnco nnd nn on-
euro demanded , tha "William Tell"
overture showed tha enormous power of
the band whllo the "Funeral March of n
Molsonetto" by Gounod gave an opportunity
for delicate shading which was thoroughly
appreciated.
"Tho Chariot Unco , " by Sousn , suggested
by Low "Wallace's "Ben Hur , " at once
stamped the director ns n composer
of much nbility nnd ouo destined
to shine lu the musical nnnul.s of
the now world. It tells the story
of that enthralling rnco In music almost as
well ns the author tells it hi words. It needs
llttlo imagination to picture the scone , the
vast nmplthcator llllod with excited men and
women , the six four * , the crash nnd then
tbrouch the cloud of dust nnd saud is soon
Ben Hur still In his car , dashing oti to vic
tory. All this is told in this vcrv brilliant
comnosltlon of the leader of the Marino band.
Miss Decca snug the favorite polka staccato
for soprano by Mulder pcrfoctlv nnd then
the band closed Its memorable visit to Omaha
by playing "Tho Star Spangled Banner. "

LONDON , April 22. | Special Cablegram to
Tun BEE. ] The house of commons yostor-
dny was the scene of nu unusual outburst of
temper ou the part of Mr. Gladstone. Dur
ing sitting in committee T. W. Husscll
charged the liberals with trying to defeat
the Irish land bill. Gladstone , facing around ,
exclaimed : "That Is absolutely untrue. '
The house was nghast and Russell tried to
make un explanation , when Gladstone darted
forward and reiterated In moro parliamentary
language his assertion that Russell's ' state
ment was contrary to fact ,
Husscll , resuming , quietly observed that
there were so munv leaders of the opposition
that It would bo advisable to drop Iho sub
ject This did not Improve Gladstone's tem
per , and when Mr. Saundorson rose and con-
5ratulnted him for supporting the bill , Glad
stone's anger redoubled and ho again gave
vent to language rarely h'oard ou the front
breuch.
Thu unpleasant oplsodo pleased a few radi
cals , but Gladstone's colleagues looked ner
vous and ill ut case.
