ulilisil Upon Two Special
Council
The special session of the city council held
yesterday afternoon to consider the advisa
bility of Issuing ? 1W,000 ) of Improvement
bonds uns barren of rusulls as far as accom
plishing anything was concerned.
Mayor Cushlng was usliod to express his
Views. Ho did not regard ti special election
as a good plan from a business standpoint ,
nnd to make thb forcible said : "So far as I
am concerned 1 do not think It would bo good
policy. It will cost JJO.OOO to hold this
npcclal clnHlon , Take this money and put It
Into grading nnd you will see that It will
result In greater bonellU to the city.1
Attorney Poppleton said " 1 am convlneod
that tnli election must bo held according to
the provisions of the Australian ballot law ,
nt n cost of something llko $2. " > , OUO. Now
would tills bo good polity' I don't think that
wo should vote bonds and boiroiv money to
carry on work that can bo postponed until
'
uext'yciir , simply to gl\o men employment.
" \Vi > have no nsMiraiues that those bonds
will carry , If voted , must of the monov
would undoubtedly ho used for pa\mg
Intersections , as there is a difllcnltv in the
vrny of constructing sewer" Tim legislatuio
in enacting the new rlmrter took from the
city the right of eminent domain , und now if
yoii run up against n man's lot with your
eewcr you cannot condemn his piopcrty , but
must pay him the priro he asks.
' There has been a cnntl deal siild about the
question of giving employment to laborers ,
but as most of thu money would go to the
material men it looks to mu like pouring
Omaha money Into a foreign rat 1 ole. "
Mr. Morearty favored going on with the
public works nnd keeping pac'j with the
progress of the city.
Mr. Hcchel regarded the expense as an Im
portant factor. Ho wanted to know if the
commissioners would Join In tlio expense of
constructing election booths.
Mr. Tlinmo was piusent Ho could net
Bpeak for the entliu board , but as n .single
member ho favored going with the city.
Mr. Osthoff thought the booths could wait
\intllthegenoralclection Ho Imd investi
gated the .subject nnd found that enough
tents could bo hired for SJUO. These would
do and answer all purposes.
President Lowrv had m ido careful esti
mates and know the oiectlon would not cost
< n excess of SlD.oiX ) Ills llguros fiom the
comptroller showed an excess of * 1S,0 < X ) In
the lighting fund , besides $ . > , ( > < > ( ) in the dam-
ngo fund. "Wo have held two meetings in
my ward and my pcoplo are now preparing
to grade t00,000 ! yards , but if wo cannot dr >
any paving or lay any sou ers I am of the
opinion that wo will wall and let the city
grade our streets. "
Mr. Specht suggested that $15,000 be taken
Irom the lighting fund.
Mr. Osihoft thought It would bo well to
confer with the board of education and In
duce that body to ] oln In sharing the expense.
Mr. lUumer opposed tacking on any school
bond proposition.
Mr. Itcchcl nsked the mayor If ho would
favor the bond proposition it it could bo
shown where the funds to pay for holding
the election were to come from.
"That depends , " said his honor. "I am
opposed to paying ? I50 for building n house
tins year It next year I can build the samu
lionso for $125. "
President Lowrv rend the llguros from tlio
nninutrnllm * jhnwlni * mi n\'pi nf SIS (1(111 ( ( id

"Thoso llgurcs nro not correct , " responded
the nmyor.Vo hiwo not k-ss money In tlint
fund than wo Imd two yours ngo nnd the ex
penses uro Incienslnir cvory year. "
Deputy Comptroller Coultorstatod that the
fltrurcs wore correct ,
The nmyor sold the ncoplo do not want to
pay $20,000 for holdliifj un election.
Mr.'Morourty moved to KOI the sense of
the meeting that the bond proposition bo sub
mitted.
President Lowry Intimated that It would
bo useless to call tlio election If thu mayor
would veto the proposition.
Attorney 1'opploton r.used the question
about city hall bonds. Ho said : "If the
courts should bold that the bonds nro not
issued until they nro nctnullv put out It may
conflict with the Issuance of tbcso improve
ment ( Kinds. "
Ho nijain tnlkod oxpottso and said : "If you
expend JJO.OOO and the bonds carry you can-
5jiot pot to work before September 1. This
'Avny winter would bu on and the city would
'lio paying 112 to 15 per cent on money that it
could'not use until next season , whoro.is If
you wait nntll the general election you cau
got your contracts ready and go to work
cnrly next spring. "
President Lowry knew that work could bo-
pin uy July 1 , as early as It was commenced
lost year.
Mr. Speclit amended Mr. Moroarty's mo
tion by moving that the president appoint n
committee of three to investigate , ascertain
the actual cost of holding the election and re
port to the council tonicht. Messrs. Doehcl ,
Tuttle and OstholT were appointed on > , ho
committee ) .
Mr. OstholT favored a now and complete
registration.
Attorney I'opnloton thought the law might
bo strained n trlllo In this respect. In his
. opinion a tlnoo days' registration will 1111 the
bill.
President Lowry had talked with the city
treasurer regarding the solo of the bonds tf
voted. The treasurer had corresponded with
eastern parties and thought such bonds
would bring a premium.

OMUM , May -I. To the Kdltor of Tiir
HER : I saw In nn Omaha paper n few davs
ngo an article referring to JO n week boys
substituting plumbers. I hnvo also some
thing to say In regard to this matter , Some
time ago I had n job of plumbing done by a
certain llrm In this city. The work was
guaranteed as llrst class , hut I found out in a
Bhort while that It was decidedly contnuy to
what 1 had expected. Upon Investigation
1 learned that the so-called plumber who had
donojho ] oQ had only been an apprentice at
the business about ten months and getting
(5 n week , u trlllo more than a lint ulass man
pets a day , and that I had n very Inferior
class of work dono. Hut if that was all I
could not complain v , I suppose , there nro u
great many more In the siiino boat with mo.
Slekuois ovcrtooic my family and my doctor
Mils were increasing rapidly , mow so than
mey had been previous to the tlma I had the
ilumblng done. I could not account for tnU
lUagreeablo state of atlalri until n plumber
M particular frload of mlno ) , to my great
surprise , made mo nwaro ot the fnct that I
hud sewer gas In the houso. 1 called on the
llnr. who did the work to have them remedy
the defective parts. They did so , but
the next day I was presented wltti
n handsome bill of tin for about
two hours work und material that was used
nftcr they had guaranteed the work for fho
years.
As I understand the majority of plumber1) )
employed In the Omaha plumbing shops nro
principally boys whoso wagm range from ? 3
to $11 ! per week and have been about ono or
two years nt the trade ; such mon. in my es
timation , nro utterly Incapable of handling
mechanics' tools , and I would ndvlso all par-
tie * having plumbing done to beware of such
Impositions , as U not only accumulates
plumbers' bills but cndanqers the lives of
your family. There are at present a not
very few competent plumbers walking the
streets whose places nro filled by the former
class of workmen. A llttlo caution on the
trnrt of the residents of Oninna who have
plumbing to do against Inn Ing boys or cheap
men would , I nm sure , Insure them n good
quality of work and cheaper In the end , ns n
good tiian costs no more than a poor one.

Speaking of the people ho mot nt the
great health resort Mr. Watson said :
"There were swiirms of southern poli
ticians at Hot Springs , and wo
met several nt Little Hock. There is ono
thing you can bank on and pay no attention
to anything you hear to the contrary. It Is
this. Cleveland is going to have the united
support of the south for a second term in the
presidential chair. Hill isn't In It ntnll.
"I attended the theater one night lu Llttlo
Hock where ICatlo Putnam sang an alleged
song In which she mentioned Dlalno , Harri
son , Hill and Cleveland. When she men
tioned Dlalno's name there was a good round
of applaUM' , and when Harrison's name was
spoken there was another. Hill didn't have
friends enough In the house to Interfere
with ttio progress of the song , but

Katie mentioned Cleveland. I thought thereof

"No. I don't. 1 don't think there Is sufll-

"How nuout the reapportionmentl"
"I admit that thu reapporttonmont should

Outila" In nor wildest , nights of fancy
never painted a darker picture than the lives
of Dora Marccllus , tlio daughter of a noted
man , and Wiltnot A. Lawrence , who comes
of n family of well known actors. Her father

An inquest to determine the cause of death
of George Gleason was held at Heafoy's yes
terday afternoon. The Union Pacific was
represented by two members of its law de
partment.
Joe Miller was walking along on Seventh
street near Jackson when the accident oc
curred. Ho noticed the engine Jump up and
down once or twice and then turn over. The
whistle blow once as the engine loft the
tractt. Ho ran at once to thu sccuo and as
sisted In recovering the dead man.
Henry Dean was with Miller and corrobor-
n t rwl li lu t nc 11 itirtm *
George I ) . Ellis , n switchman , was on the
rearof the train and Uiil not notice anything
until ho saw the engine go off. The witness
sniil ho hail been running over the track for
the past nine months mid know it was in
gooa shape. Ho examined the track after
the auuiUont and found no oyidonco of n bad
track. Ho saw six spikes picked up nt the
point where the engine went off and identi-
lied the splices ottered in evidence us the
ones picked up.
Cleorgo F. Whitney , engineer of the train ,
testified that ho folt'tno cugino drop from the
track and ti led to get out of tlio cab , but did
not have time before the engine turned over.
After the engine stopped ho crawled out of
the cab. The witness had no idea what
caused the accident , as the truck seemed all
right. When the cnclno turned it wrenched
the cab olT and broke the whistle lover , caus
ing the whistle to sound one blast. Ho did
uot pull the whistle as ho did not have time.
Joseph Murray , roadmastor , identified the
spikes as the ones found by him at tha point
where the accident occurred. The llangcs of
the engine wheels had marked the rail nnd
the spilics wore found at this point on both
sides , of the outer rail. There hud been no
work done on the track recently which would
account for the presence of the spikes. Maries
on them showed that tbey had been placed
lengthwise ) on top of the rail.
John Shields , section foreman , corroborated
the testimony of Mr. Murray and Idtutillod
the spikoi.
UoUurtMcKinloy , foreman of the wreck
ing crow , had picked up two snikos and idea-
tllii-il tlinm. In tils oninion thov hud causc-d
the accident.
Lowls W. I'Vltor throw no new light on the
matter.
The coroner announced that this completed
the testimony unless there was further evidence -
'
donco which 'the Jury desired. There being
none , tlw room was cleared of everyone but
the coroner and the Jury.
It was. . evident from the manner in which
the members of tha Jury cross-examined the
witnesses that they did not have much faith
in the spike theory , nnd there was every in
dication that the verdict would bo against
the company.
Thu attorneys for the Union Pacific loft
the place hastily , but most of the witnesses
stood around waiting for the verdict.
In about llvo minutes after the crowd
was cleared out of the Jury room
Claim Agent Manchester of tno
Union 1'aclllo appeared on the
scone and inquired for the coronnr. Dr.
Harrlgan appeared and hold a whispered
consultation with Mr. Manchester , after
which ho returned to the Jury room and an
nounced that the inquest would bo adjourned
until 11 a. m , today for the purpose of intro
ducing further testimony.
The coroner was very solicitous about the
fact of Mr. Manchester's visit being sup
pressed , but vouchsafed no explanation for
his uneasiness.

Workmen ltin ! ivln c tlic 1'axtun Hotel
Fire Wnll.
The work of tearing down the Paxton hotel
annex was begun yesterday. A number
were engaged in razing the threatening walls
and carefully dodged in and out of the rickety
structure , keeping meanwhile a vigilant eye
on the upper wails.
These fears wura well loundod ns the oper
ation was anything but safe. Shortly after
the work commenced , another section of the
west wall , nearly as largo as that whlcn fell
u few weeks ago and burled live Hremcn , fell
inward with a terrilio nolso nnd crushed the
three lower lloors to the basement. It carried
along with it : i section of the tin roof nnd n
quantity of material from each ilnor , but for
tunately no one. was burjed under the pile of
debris that was heaped up in the former
kitchen of the hotel.
The work of demolishing the structure is
going ou very rapidly , and it will bo but a
short time until thu walls of nn elegant nnd
substantial addition to the hotel will bo going
up on its site.

About the weat hcror anythint-else. Wc\c
got lots of clothing , shiits and hats , and
we're at the slaughter bench , as you'll see by
reading further on
PANTS
\Ycll , what's the use
talking about prices.
We might say 50c
for the best pair in
the house and it
would make no dif
ference to the paper
it is printed. We've
started a sale on $3
pants. That's what \\c
want to say , and if you arc
Panting for Pants.
Just come in and look at them and be your
own judge.
WHO
SaidHats
This is the 100 center.
Ye just got 'em in.
This isthe 95 center. About
a week's supply of 'em ' on hand.
Of course you'll understand that we are in
Rome and niustdo as Romans do , and that ,
as is claimed through the newspapers by
some competitors that they are perfectan-
gels , only you can't see their wings , and that
they are sacrificing their lives and entire
profit just to please the good people.
Excuse Us , We are Not In It That
Way ,
We are underselling all competitors , and
making money at it , and that's what -we've
heen here for for the last 35 years. With that
amount of experience and no store rent to pay ,
we ought to be able to do what we claim ,
without much headwork , or quit.
The clothes we sell you give you a good front
and don't go back on your back. As regards
your side s they look all right on the right and
you never get left on the left. They are bar
gains all around. Our customers will sub
stantiate what we say. Respectfully ,
Corner 13th and Farnam Streets.
