8 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE , TUUKSDAY SEPTEMBER 3 , 1801. WAY STOP CITY HALL WORK , Funda Are Not Available For tlo Oora- plotlon of the Job. " ' ADDITIONAL BONDS MUST BE VOTED. Slory of tlin .Mnntirr In Which ol' I IT Iras IIiivo Itocii Allowed ( Jrently Uxcootlintr tlie Orljjl- milE It may bo n surprise to the public , but It Is ft fact nevertheless , that there nro now strong probabilities that wor " ! the now city hall will bo dlscontlnutd within Iho next thirty days. Should work bo discontinued it will simply bo bccnuio the funds tiav * been ex unlisted. When It wns first decided to construct a city hall In accordance with the plans wo- pared by Architect Moyur.s , bonds In the sum of $ 00,000 for Its completion were voted. Work was commenced and 13,059 put Into a foundation nnd basement. Then work was topped nnd nn election hold to decldo upon a location. Jefferson Squnro and the present location nt Eighteenth and Farnam slrcols wuro voted for. The latter named location won and the pinns for the building were chanced. The now building was to cost not to oxccod f.VH,00l ) ( , and bonds in the sum of | a' > 0,000 nuthori/od. Theoldbasomentwa.s lorn out and the building wont on In conformity to the designs - signs submltlcd by Fowler & Bolndorff , who entered Into n bond that the hall should not coat to oxccod f.TiOUOU. John F. Coots had secured the contract for f.ii'i7. ! ; il which did not Include Interior finish. Immediately after ho had entered Into the contract it was discovered that the plans needed changing to conform to ino crndo of Douglas slreel. This loultod in an nddlllnnal expenditure of money and . * 0llii : was allowed. Tbo contract for $100bS ; ! > for interior finish was next let. About that time billi for extras began to roll In al a rapid and alarming rate. The cornice , which was to have been of galvan ised iron under the old contract , was changed to Portage red sandstone. This cost $ ! 8tiS7 additional. Then the gutlcrs wore changed to copper at n cost of WsJi. On the roof cop per was substituted for liti nnd Iho change cost t."ir > 17 extra. The foundation for the hollers , which had been neglected in the original specifications , cost $ ! C,7.r > l ami a contract for marble tiling , vault doors and electric wiring added f 17riu. ; This ran the estimates up to fiiH.lbl ) , or fll.IKI moro than thoorlglnal estimated cost , but a halt was not called then. The council changed a stairway nt a cost of several hun dred dollars , received bids on fS.WJO of vault fixtures and entered Into a contract for fur nishing the same. Plumbing extras , electric light fixtures and gas pipe contracts amountIng - Ing to $ ! 5,000 nrc on t'10 ' wa to tuo council nnd the city treasury. Between SCt.OOO and toO.OOO of office furni ture has been advertised tor and the bids are now in the bands of the commilcco on public property nnd buildings. It Is true that all of those bills have not been paid , but of the f.T25,000 that was on hand only $7'.lr ' > 0. > .OJ remains in the treasury. When the estimates now duo are paid , and when Iho paymenl is made lor electric wiring and going on with the necessary work that Is now In sight and must bo done to place the building under roof , the balance in the city hall fund will bo written on the red ink Bide of the ledger. This stnto of affairs has called out an ex pression from City Attorney Popploton , who said that ho understood that the funds had been oxhaused and that , thu balance of the $ , ' > 0,000 ( ) , * 17r ,000 , could not bo availably until bonds had been voted and sold. In view of this condition of the financestho members of tlo committee who have been looking after the furniture bids nro all at sea nnd hardly know what to do. If there is no money they do not want to buy , and for this reason it ii possible that a contract will not bo awarded for some time. This condition of finances is nlso what prevented the commitleo from re porting on thojcontract for vault fixtures. Superintendent Hawaii said yesterday that the August cstlmalos for labor were at least $10,000 , while the appronrialion sheet showed that they were only ? V > OI.OS. M this Is true , the $70riO.i.Oj would bo reduced another f.1,000 if the bills were paid. To say nothing of furnishing , it Is esti mated that to complete Ihn interior of the hall would cost nt least $ .10,000 , as nnno of the lloors uro laid ; Iho lower is yet unbuilt ; the roof Is not yet on ; no provisions have boon made for heating ; the doors , windows nnd casings nro yet to go in ; the stairway , balconies and a large amount of plastering and plumbing remains lo bo finished. Mr. Cools , the contractor , is absent and consequently no stalotncnt can bo obtained from him , but it is known that for some rea son no effort Is being made to push the com pletion of the building , as scarcely u doion men are employed. Kverybndy Knows that at this season the blood is filled wllh impurities , Iho accumulation of months of close confinement In poorly ventilated stores workshops and tenements.

Story ol'do Sin and SufTcrlnt ; of Poor Annlo Cnni ] > loll. All yesterday afternoon Mrs. Annie Campbell - boll of Lincoln lay on the sofa In the police matron's room at police headquarters suffer ing Intense pain. It was with difllcully that Matron Cummlugs managed to got the story of poverty and pain from the poor woman. Mrs. Campbell said that she loft her hus band two years ago on account of another woman , She gave her two children away and started out into llio world to earn a living. Finally she was seduced by n painter named Jack Kody. Together they went to Plattsmotith , but Rody foiled to got work nnd finally deserted her. About August 1'J Mrs. Campbell came to Omaha and .slopped for n time at n lodclng house near the Union dcpol. While search ing for cheaper lodging she got down on to Ninth street , and not knowing the city was Induced to enter n resort at 109 North Ninth street where she was offered a homo and care during confinement , The promises of the madam were not kept , nnd the poor woman was forced to lead u llfo of shumo until she became dangerously 111. Then she was wanted no longer and was driven into Iho slrcot. Barely able to crawl , the unfortuuuU finally reached a friendly sheller nt'JOU North Ninth street. Yestordat morning arrangements were made , a hark was called and the poor woman taken to the city Jail , uud placed in llio matron's cure.

Charleston association introduced a resolu tion in favor of reducing the per capita tax and of establishing a legal cortitlcatoof mem bership for the National Association ot Sta tionary Engineers. Pending the report of the committees , the convention adjourned until 4 o'clock , at which hour the visitors were to return from their Florence excursion. A few of tbo delegates objected to devoting tho'afternoon to an excursion , and a com promise was reached when the late session was proposed. Mr. Bailey , of the local committee , extended - tended a cordial invitation to nil members of the association , whether delegates or not , to bo present at the banquet this evening and the ball Thursday availing. After adjournment the various committees held short sessions to consider the business referred to them. There is considerable work to bo dona by the convention and fun is predicted bolero the oody adjourns sino die. Some of the dele gates mo rino for a hot parliamentary llgnt and apparently don't care very much what it is about , so lougns they only have one. There will bn quite a tussle over the loca tion of the next convention , if one is located anywhere. Many of the delegates tnvor biennial conventions and don't want another until IblW , when it Is a foregone conclusion that thov will meet in Chicago and take in the woild's fair. This question , howovorinvolvcs n constitu tional amendment , nnd tncre will bo qutto a contest , over it , as many of the delegates hold that it would ho an evidence of weakness to make the change. The question of dividing the country up into districts Is another cha.ico for a dis agreement , ns there is a division of senti ment as to reducing the number oT delegates entitled to seats in the national convention at the present time , although it is generally ad mitted thot this will bo necessary when the organisation is older nnd the subordinate as- socinlions increase so that individual repre sentation would uiako mi unwieldly conven tion. tion.Tho big fight will como up on the election of ofllcors. There nro half n dozmi candi dates for president , nnd these most stronglv I backed uro the present incumbent , J. J. ll- lingworth , the past president , Hon. John Fehronbaleh of Cincinnati , and the present treasurer , W. H. Cronley of Jcrsov Citv. For the past two voars the latter has been ondoavorint ; to got rid of the oftlco of treas urer , but the association has insisted on his retaining it. The trip to Florence was full of Interest for the visitors. They boarded a special trainl of six coachbs nt the Webster street depot at ! i o'clock , and although many of the members of the convention committees could not get away , owing to the amount of com- mltteo business to bo looked after , hut there were nevertheless nearly ! ! 00 excursionists In the party. With the party were several prominent Omahans , among whom were Colonel C. S. Chase , Major St. A1. D. Bal- eombo , Councilman Conway , George P. Bomls nnd Superintendent A. * B. Hunt of the Water Works company. The tourists were gone two hours and a half , nnd ox- nmlncd the entire plant at Florence , , explor ing the great pump house fiom end to cm ! , nnd from top to bottom. The ponderous machlnorv , especially the great Allls pumping engine , was closely ex amined and was a revelation to the engineers , who admitted that they were surprised oven after hearing nnd reading so much about It , After admiring It to their heart's content they took a trip along the reservoirs nnd wuro much interested in ( hiding out , ns Mr. Trix of Detroit expressed it , "how that mud over there is made ill to drink. " Thev found out and volcod their approval of it by declaring that the system was one of the eroatobt , as wall as ono of the most perfect , In the country. Shortly after returning to the city , the gen vention was again called to order , and Sec retary Carloy submitted tus report. It showed that during the year tlilrty-thrco now subordinate associations had been chartered with a membership of 4b4. There were eight associations to ho dropped from the books , six as suspended and tuo as dead. At the last convention there were upon the rolls of the order in good standing ! > , IIU active members.

Loss than 100 copies of the journal of proceedings have boon sold to thosuboidinataassoclations of this order. " A lengthy debate followed the reading of n communication from Tnnnwanda association , Now York , relative to the action of Deputy President ( iriftln In neglecting to turn over funds received for Instituting a now lodge. The secretary said be had written to tbo de linquent ofttciul a score or Ictlars demanding a settlement , but had been unable to" got one. Ho was Dually Instructed to prefer charges against GrlDlti and refer them to the local lodge for investigation. Tual disposes of the matter for this year. WUOH the convention was notified of the proparatlons made to viilt South Onmlm this afternoon lomu ol tUu dclogatoi rcpontuu of their Inaction nnd linovcd that the cntlro day ho devoted to buiiness. It wont through with n wlionn , nnd tbo convention adjourned until 0 o'clock this morning. The convention hnt been In session two days , and about tliamnly work that has boon accomplished was to ucctdo to do something today.
