A petition hiu been Illod In the- district
court praylnit for the nppomtment of n re-
cclv'cr ' for the Omnha Harclwnro company.
The company In Its corporate tiamo mid
nbout two-thirds of the Mockholdors nro
named as jiliiltttlffs , and Cho other stock
holders ns defendants.
It appears from th'o petition that the action
was authorized at n stockholders' meeting
held last Monday nftornoon , nnd that over
two-ttilrJs of the stockholders voted at the
mooting In favor of appointing as rccnlvcr
C. F. TagRart , now ono of the directors nnd
vlco president of the company. The peti
tion nllogos Hint the application Is inaao nt
this tlmo hoctiuso of ulfTcronces of opinion
nmoiiB the directors and onicors ns to con
tinuing or discontinuing the business. In
view of the fact that the company's stock of
merchandise was utmost wholly consumed
by Ilro March S7 last. The insurance loss
has not yet bean adjusted.
Tlio plaintiffs say that the company has conr
traded nn Indebtedness largelyIn excess of
Iho two-thirds limit proscribed by the arti
cles of incorporation ns amended , nnd by the
Ktntutos of the state , and that the business ,
owing to special circumstances , has boon con
ducted at a loss. 'iho total Issued stock of
the corporation Is $151,100. , The nssots of
the company arcsnid to consist chlolly of the
Insurance money , ? iyoUOO , accounts and bills
receivable estimated at over $7ri,000 , and a
161 and building on Douglas street. The Ha-
hllltles aft ) oiUinnled at jrr.,000.
No choi-Rcs of fraud or bad faith are made
nsalnst any of the olllcors. The present situ
ation U simply the outcome of the recent Ilro
mm differences of opinion us to the future
course of the company. No serious ilini-
culty is anticipated in tbo adjustment
of tiio Insurnncn loss , ns the adjusters and
the company are now ciiftngoiJ in estimating
the amount which should bo paid ,
The application will bo heard early next
week , unci will probably not bo seriously con
tested by any of the stockholders. The gen
eral desire of the parties Interested scorns to
bo to close the present business up ns .speed
ily ns possible nnd at the least possible ex
pense , and it is claimed that the asset ? of the
company nro nmplo to satisfy nil creditors.
The only miestion Is as to whether or not the
Btockuoldurs can realize the face of their
stock.

The reported selection of Captain Ji. S.
Hayes for the presidency of the Union Pncl-
Ijo railway was thu ono topic of conversation
In railroad circles yosurday. Nothing
dcllnlto has been learned beyond what
tins been published in Tin : Qnn ,
but well-In formed rail road ofllctnls
bore regard the report as moro' '
than plauslblo. Captain Hayes Is not only
known to bo an nblorailroad man , but the
fact Is recalled that ho was once before pro
posed for the presidency of the Union Pad
lie. Ho wus for n number of years connected
with Jay Gould In southwestern rallroadien-
tororlsos , nnd somonro inclined to regard his
selection as a compromise , though thcro is no
positive Information that ho has had any ro
latlons with Mr. ( Jould for some years past.
Ho Is known to have been n friend of General
Dodge , who secured him several positions in
years past.
Captain Hayes has been in Omaha n num-
bar of times and has some friends hero , who
spcok of him in most compllmantnry lorms.
Six or seven years ago ho acted as arbitrator
in the controversy between the Union Pa-
clllc anil iho Missouri Paclllo ever the
Omaha Bolt line. That cnterprlso was under
taken by S. II. II. Clark , then gcnoral man
ager ol the Union PaclQc , as an adjunct of
that sy. tom , but the Adams people thoucht
him too sangulno , and wtien they gained con
trol they decided to drop the Belt lino. Mr.
Clark-had no dlfllutty In finding n customer
lor it , but n controversy arose over the
amount of money put Into its construction
bv the Union Pacific , nnd the latter began
suit to recover the sum it claimed. Those
matters were afterwards referred to Captain
Hayes and by him satisfactorily arbitrated.

WEIGHED DOWN BY WEIGHERS
Loud of Debt Under Which the State Grain

The state grain department is hopelessly In
dcut and has every promise of remaining
In such condition so long as the present
method of transacting the business of the
department is maintained. When the legis
lature meets nn appropriation will bo asked
to make up tno deficiency and grain 'men say
that the legislature will without doubt repeal
tha Wai-chouse law it it is shown to bo non-
supporting.
On April 1 , Iho department was , in round
numbers , $1.000 In debt nnd it will run ? COO
behind this month , as this is tbo dull season
und very little grain is moving.
The gram men do not want to see the
warehouse law repealed and nro accord
ingly very much dissatisfied with
the present administration of the
law and nro preparing to make
n vigorous kick before iho state board.
During the btis.v season last winter the in
spection department ran bciilnd , and the
grain men saw that when the dull season
uamo on It would be Impossible to maintain
tbo department except at u loss. They pro
tested , but without effect until Mr. Boyd
came in und appointed Mr. Thompson chief
inspector. Mr. Thompson at once reduced
expenses and is now doing the entire work
of the Inspection department. Ho has given
up the expensive- suite of rooms formerly oc
cupied by the department , and dispensed
with all such luxuries as gas , telephone , etc.
During tlio mouth of January , which was
the last full month under tbo old inspector
the expenses were :
Chief Ins pcctor's salary ? I GO 03

For iho month of Marchunder Mr. Thomp
son , the oxpttnso of the Inspection department
was as follows :
Chief Inspector's salary { 1GO.GG
Ultlco rent 7.M
Total expense $174.10
This reduction uiaitcs the Inspection de
partment self-supporting in spite of the fact
mat it is tbo dull season and the Omaha grain
ineu are highly gratlllod with the result.
Tlio Weighing Department.
While the Governor has the appointing
power in the case of grain Inspection the law
leaves tlio State Board of Transportation
to provide for the weighing of grain.
This the board did by appointing
a chief wolghmaster at n salary of,000 ! per
year and allowing him to appoint -his son as
sistant nt ? 1'JOO par year and two helpers to
do tbo actual weighing.
Tbo grain men protested against the extravagance -
travaganco and got the force cut down to the
chief Inspector nnd his son who are now
drawing JSV-'OO l'or year.
The grain men some six week ] ago sent in
another protest against the extravagance .of
the weighing department and Mr. Walsh
took tno same to Lincoln and presented it
personally to Attorney General Hastings.
As yet the board has taken no action but is
allowing the expense to pile up against tbo
Omaha department to so great nn
extent that , it will oo impossi
ble to wipe it out without a special
appropriation from the legislature.
It was buggostcd to members of the bdard
that they give the chior inspector authority
to act as chief wolgbmastcr , 'and .he could
then employ nn assistant at $000 acar and
do the woik thafis now costing $ y,20i ) be
sides oflice rent and o'.hor expenses.
The board responded that they could not
make such an arrangement as it 'would ba-
contrnry to law. They UI-P , however , nllow-
iugtno chief inspector nt Lincoln to do tbo
weighing , nnd if it is legal thcro Omatia
grain men would like to know why it would
not bo legal at Omaha.
lilt ; Pay for Mttlo Work.
Tbo nxponses of the weighing department
last month at pmahn were :
Chief wolghmnstur's salary Jlfll CO
Asil&lant wolghtiiustor's salary lui ) OJ
Olllcd rent IS 1)0 )
Total ii'81 ' 10
If placed unuer the chief inspector the
total expense for weighing would at the most
bo onlv $ T 0 per month , or a saving to the
state of $231.00 per month. Moro than that ,
nt Iho present dull llmo the chief inspector
could uo the welching himself and the wbolo
expense of iho weighing department would
be saved.
Grain men who were approached on the
subject till expressed themselves ns very
uiticti dlssntiallcd with tbo present state of
affairs nnd admitted that ihov were prepar
ing to make another effort in behalf of econ
omy and ono that tbo state board could not
ignore.

The county commissioners locked thorn-
solves In tbolr committee room yesterday ,
pulled down the window curtains nnd again
considered the proposition of the Nebraska
Central Hallway company to bridge the river
at this point , build a union depot nt Fif
teenth and Chicago streets and construct n
line of road to South Omaha , conditioned
that Douglas county would vote $ iOOOUO of
long tlmo bonds.
Vice President Dtimont , A. L. Heed nnd
John Li. MuCamto wcro present to look nftor
the Interests of the Nebraska Central , while
John D. Howe assisted County Attorney Mahoney -
honey nnd the commissioners.
All of the commissioners talked fntr enough
and In favor of the project , but Major Pad
dock insisted thut in addition to the bridge ,
the depot , the line to South Onu.ha nna the
100 miles of road Into Iowa to connect with
tbo Illinois Central nnd other eastern lines ,
the company should build nnd equip nt least
thlrty-llvo miles of road in n wostorlv or
northwesterly direction.
In this nmtur n compromise was finally
effected by Mr. Dumont agreeing to build n
line from the main line nt the Intersection of
West Leavonworth street to a point as fur
west as the Little Pnpplo. It win agreed
that this line should be free to all roads de
siring to enter Omaha or South Otnahn from
the west.
In addition to this the company agreed to
extend its lines up the bottoms ns far as
Gracostreot , thus allowing the roads com
ing Into the city from the north to roach the
union depot at Fiftoo.ith nnd Chicago streets.
It was also agreed that all roads should bo
allowed to cross tno tracks , switches nnd
sidings of iho Nebraska Central according to
terms of nn arbitration to bo agreed upon.
Upon the subject of bonds , It was agreed
that the $ oOIH)0 ( ) ) to bo voted b.- Douglas
