The presence of Mr. P. L. Ames In Omaha moons , a great deal for tlio metropolis. It moans , unless nil signs fall , the settlement ol the long and tiresome controversy over the union depot. and the determination of the depot company to .hasten tha worlc of construction. When Mr. S. H. H. Clark presented tno ideas of the special committed of citizens np- pointcd to confer with the president of the road to the meeting of the director * hold some tlmo ago , a resolution favoring n speedy ottlomont of the controversy was passed and empowered Mr. Clark to conclude the matter - tor upon a fair basis , nltko to the company as well as the city. But Mr. Clark has failed to wrlto the special commlttoo of citizens to meat him for the reason tbat he has wantodjtho helpful as sistance of Mr. Amos In arriving at the con clusions necessary to the resumption of woik upon the prosout unsightly structure , which is the Jest of every traveler wbo has to look upon It. As the largest niockholdcr in the Uifion Pacific , having $3,000,000 to f 10.000,000 invested in Its securities , and at the same time n largo bolder of clly realty , Mr. Amns will meat the committee ) this week and will ondcavor'lo bring the long deferred mutter to a focus. focus.What What the Cltlrons 1'roponcd. Thrco propositions were madu by the cora- rolltco loiMr. Clark , Mr. Klmbnll and olbcrs Iniorcslcd wllh him In the company. First , that the indemnifying bonds which the city was to sivo 10 the Union Pacific bo can celed ; second , tbat iho bo.id to bo given by the Union Pacilio to the city covering the bridge arbitrary ho suspended and the deeds bo placed in escrow until iho depot bo far Inough advanced that it may bo occupied. Tlio last proposition is Iho thorn Inthusldoof iho company and upon nn nmlcablo settle ment of this point will depend whether thn building is to bo resumed. A prominent ofllciul who Old not wish to bo quoted said : "Persons contemplating the purchase of depot bonds will institute In quiry as lo the tillo vested in the depot company nnd should It bo found that the title was clouded it would work a hardship upon the company In the sale of Its hnnds. If the citizens'committee will abate this pro position , I have not the least doubt about work being resumed upon the structure. " And this otllclal know whereof ho was talk ing. ing.In In any event a few concessions upon the part of the citucnsand the recognition of Iho city's right by tha railroad company to dictate certain things will build Iho depot nnd it looks now as If the concessions would bo made while Mr. Ames Is in thn clly.

When u moro lad Mr. Dillon began his railroad life ns an errand boy on the Mohawk & Hudson railroad , tbo lint railroad built in his native Elate , running from Albany to Schcnortady. Ho next entered the service of tbo Honsscl- oor & Saralogu. Then ho became overseer of contracts on the Boston > t Providence nrul.otnor linos. In 1KJS ho took his 11 rat contract and completed it with profit , in 1S40 , from which tlmo his contracts became very miinnrous.

Altogether ho was ougamd in over forty of tbo leading publlo works ot the United States and tbo contracts ( mounted to. over $100,000,000. In person Mr. Dillon was tall , exceedingly well built , aud combined sauvltv of manner wllh grout promptness of decision in action. fin wna Tiinrnnil In 1H11 At Mr. Gould's suggestion , Sidney Dillon was made president ot tno Union Puclllo in March , 1874.

When an unblujed history nt tha Union Pacific railroad comes to bo written tbu Ames family and Sldnov Dillon will bo hono'rod for the work they did toward building this great railroad system. Even millionaires a they wcro , wnon the Union Pacific was. started , they found money very icarco , tbo government bonds sold for a song and thing * had a very ominous look.

Ho was a contractor ou the Union Pacific and built much of the railway , Ho was a contractor upon a large ealo und built , if 1 remember rightly , tbo water works at New York or Boston. Ho built tbo uudorground portion.'of theTNow York Central & Hudson Klvcr railroad , and had a contract for build ing iho Laku Shore from Ashtubula to Cleve land. 'In Ulklup to Mr , Frederick L.

HOW IT WILL BENEFIT DOUGLAS COUNTY Many Indication * Tli it the Company's Suc cess Is of Orcut Ciiiumprcliil Importance to Omihu-\Vlll Air > rd All Lines Untriinco Into iho City. The regular monthly moating of the Build ers aud Traders exchange was called to order at 11:33 : by President Husslo. The members present were requested to occupy the front scats where they might bs out of the way of the rush which was expected at noon. Their modesty was against them , how ever , and they froze to the roar rows. Roll- cull did not bring out n very vigorous volley ot''hears" ' and then thn minutes of the last mooting wcra road and approved. The president addressed the mooting and said that If the attendance was any indica tion of the condition of the exchange ho should fool discouraged , but this was not the caso. The association was in a prosperous condition. It had within the past six months taken up and disposed of an immense amount of work of great moment to themselves nnd the public. When an association Uko this could got ton competent men to spend ton or flftion nights in the revision of the building ordinance , as had been done , ho thought the association was nn Important factor In tbo city's life. Tboy were hero to hoar commitlees report on tbo organization of tbo suoussoclatlons compos ing It , Furtbor.lt had bojn a < koj whufhor the exchange should discus * and express itsnlf upon the quoslion of voting bonds to Iho Nebraska Conlial. The exchange was not in politics but Ibis xvas not a political question and tno exchange ought to take up thn titiMfnt. nml nvnrflsft itsnlf rtrrfnr rn.i. For Iho carpenters' association Mr. Bassjtt reported that iho branch which ho repre sented was thoroughtv organized. For tbo brlclc manufacturers tbo secrota/y inudo a report of progress. Mr. Drexel reported for the stone masons that on account of changes of various firms more tlmo was required. Mr. Hart , chairman ot iho commlllco on revision of the building ordinance , reporlcd that they had Jusl got down to work aud had . a great deal of it to do. They would report as soon as possible. Its Great Importance. The Nebraska Central railway proposition was ther. brought up and Dr. Morca'r , who was piesont , was called for and said that , though not a member , ho was pleaded wllh Iho exchange's progress. Ho wanled first to say to the builders that the Interests" they had in charge were much moro farrcaching than they thought , to the laborers , the occu pants , the children living in the houses ; the architects and the manufacturers of tbo material. These present were intimately connected with the life of the city. Ills own impressions of the railway proposition were firm , fixed and unchangeable , and hn would apeak of them later , but just now he wanted to hoar from some ono elso. Mr. Epenotor wanted to hoar from the outsiders Interested in the railroad not to got up and talk and then have some ono knock them dowu. They were buildon and not talkers. Where was Mr. Duniont , for Instancol Mr. Thomas McCaguo announced that Mr. Dumont would DO sent for nnd in the meantime the following resolution was in troduced bv Mr. Viorlmg and seconded by Mr. Droxcl : * Hosolvcd. That It Is for the host Interests of the city of Omaha nnd Dtm-'lus county that tbo bond proposition now before our cltlans In reference to the Nebraska Central Kullroud conip'iuy and klndrod subjects bo carried , Mr. Dumont took the lloor and explained the various provisions of the proposition. Maybe the prooosltlou was lee broad , but in order to sccuro success ho beliovcd that all the provisions should bo included. Ho had had experience and had been criticised in a former proposition to build a brldga which Iho people did not want because there was no way of gelling into South Omaha. At that tlmo bo hud a syndicate ) lo build that bridge , but bo was loft without a railroad to use It because of tbo agreement of tha Hock " Island and tbo Union" PncihR. Ho wanted tbo exchange to understand that the build ing of this brldgo would take down the bars and admit eastern railways most effectually and that the public was amply guarded in Its Interest slnco no bonds were to bo paid until worn was dono. How it Will Help Omnliii , The building of tbo roarl would open up connection with roads loading lo the lalto port * and to the northeast nnd another to Chicago. A railroad to the northwest had been wanted. Would not this open com munication with the northeast ! Omaha Was comparatively at a standstill. The bridge would help it along , as the business men present could sco wilhout dltliculty. Dr. Moixer was called for and said that ho bad always voted for bonds for everything in the past. Ho had voted for if JoO.Oul ) for a Union Pacific depot ana helped to secure a magnificent cowshed , which had been lorn down ; ho bad voted for $ ir > UOOU for the Northwestern road and SriO.OOO for the South western bond nnd the paopia knew what had bean dono. Ho had voted $ XOJO ) bonds for tbo Nebraska Central brldgothroo years nno. They had not kept faith with the people. Ho had voted for the Union Pacific depot and Iho people had not got it. The guldo was the lamp of experience. Tbo newspapers bud told only ono side of tbo story ; ns to what was behind they were loft in the dark. Ho oppoioil the bonds baaauso they were wrong nnd f7.VJ,000 was too much money , because ho bud no faith in them , bccnOUo tno plan of Improvement' * was not what Omaha wanted , because wo did not want a bridge which would allow people to pass through iho city wilhout a stop over iho tops of tun houses. Another question was the issuing of bonds which would hurt the credit of iho cilv. cilv."Tho "Tho moment wo vole 5750,000 the bond buyer * of luo east and In Europe will say look oui for Omaha , and the bonds wo sell in the future will bo sold with great dinioulty , " bo said. "Wo have hard times. What shall wo oo ? Wo cannot own the railroads , so iho papers sav , but we can lease thorn tbo ground. Tboro is something which can bn done now which was on foot when this carao up. It Is this : Lotus condemn n depot slto on the river bank and a highway to reach it and lease It to a railroad for 100 years and lot Item pay for every car that rolls ever the rails which thev shtU lay on our high way as a royally. This will not bo soiling our birthright forja moss of pottage. " Mr. Dumont la reply said thai the trouble with old bond propositions was.tbat the people plo had taken tbo word of railway companies and not leaked after safe-guards. Th o county can compel the Nebraska Central to comply , with iis agreement by mandamus proceed ings. Ho aid not feel that he owed the city on apology for what was done two years ago. Ho had made un honest and faithful effort to carry out his proposition. It could not bo dono. Dr. Mercer had never scon the plans of the present proposition and was not in a position to criticise thorn , but experienced railroad man had and approved them. How It Will Ho Arranged. "Our plans do nolrross a single Important street at grade but the road parses either under them or over them , " ho said. "Our union depot will not bo up In llioalrolthor , hut ourpatsongoraud freight depots are on grade. The line going through to South Omaha after crossing Leaven worth parallels the Bolt line as a surface line. Dr. Morcor'n criti cisms are based upon lack of knowlcd o and Information. About hurting the crod 11 of tbo'ulty. Wo are asking for Douglas counly bonds. All tbo improvpniPnt bonds are as sessed against the properly ou which thov abut. Only (250,000 ot these bonds are "a debt at all. Novy to show you bow absurd his argument is ; Tbo last sale of park bonds was at a premium of $73,000 , "A * to tils scheme to bulla a publlo way , whv was It not brought upl There was nothing to , prevent those favoring it from putting It before the peoplo. You are not asked to elvo these bonds bccauso you think wo ought to hnyo thorn , but bccauro you cot vuluo for your money nnd boom your own property far bcyo&U tno amount of your taxes. " . At the ctoso ot Mr. Ihimcmt's speech Dr. Mercer shot off a bombardment of questions which were very promptly and satisfactorily answered by Mr , Uumont. Mr. Epsnotcr was opposed to the proposi tion because bO hadnot road it nnd thought that ihcnoj was not n maximum rate fixed. Ho had ; read it since nnd hn como lo the conclusion that the Nebraska Central was pretty will tied dowu. The company would not getacJnt until It com piled with Un agrocmonj , and paving $750,000 for n ? DOOJ.OOO Improvement was n pretty good speculation. Ho.had boon opposed to It nnd talked against it unlll ho had found out what It was. Now ho was lu favnr of It. Mr. Dumont asked for the privilege of ex plaining his connection With the former bond proposition which hod boon carried two years ago and gave ) u complete- history ot the transaction of that tlmo and the reasons for its failure. I'ftvored the Proposition. The following substitute to the motion before fore the house was introduced aud carried with a whoop : Whoreus , The prosperity of all wljo are en gaged In 'the bulldlnri builnosu , whether us contractors , mochanks , lalioror.-i nr in the liaiulllnL' of materials , is largely dependent upon the growth and proipsrlty ot our oily and county : an 1 Whereas , ThoRrowihof ourolty ls larsoly tlcponelont upon the development of Its com merce und manufactures , nnd the growth ot thu county upon the urowth of the city ; nnd Whereas , The extension of our railway fa cilities In necessary nnd must lao ! ° pl-iuo before fore any lar o urowih oun bo oxucclod In innnutnctiirliu or In commerce ; and.

North Omnhn Citizens Consider the No- Imislctt Central's ' - . I'l-oposltlon nt Length. Enthusiastic citizens of tbo Sixth ward mot Wednesday night at the corner of Thirty-second anil Amos avenue for Iho purpose ot discussing the Nebraska Central bond proposition. It Iho sen timent of tbo Sixth warders can betoken token as an indication of how the general vote will bo cast on election day Iho bonds will be voled by a largo majorily. Tbo mootIng - Ing was almost unanimously in favor of the bonds. The meeting was presided over by W. H. Stevens , and Councilman Spacht opened the discussion in favor of tno proposition. Ho said tbo proposed railroad and brideo would bo a great bcnoilt for Omaha. The project meant work for the llboripg classes who needed work. The money would bo expended hpro and it would make Cmaha n great city. The county commissioners and city council , ho said , had carefully considered the propo sition and nil tbo necessary safccuards had boon made in tbo interests ot both the city and county. . ThU Would Not CoJOon'n. A youiig attorney named KaompTor was there with two ot three otfiors from the Fourth nnd Fifth warJg to oppose the ques tion. Kaoinpfer tried tq show when.ho und apirtner were nitorncys for the Chicago , Milwaukee & Sv. Paul * oad nnd that in 1837 property was condemned for the Nebraska Central. Mr. Speoht'Cillod him down on this and told him such proceedings as ho claimed were unconstitutional. Tbo young lawyer further tried to tnnuo the meeting bollovo that Mr. Mlllard and the Union Pa- clllc road were at the head of the scheme. Ho Hlso stated that lyvo bridges could bo built for ? 7.,000. [ ) and wanted to know if the projectors ot the Nubraptta Central hud anv' money with which to construct the bridge. Mr. Hpecht told ICaimpfor in very plain but oraphallo liinguactj Ihat foputablo busi ness men wllh ill the necessary money were nt the bacK ol the project. Ho staled that ttioso wbo were opposed to tbo bond proposition wcra jcither representing some corporation or paid no taxc * . Mr. Kaompfer also mitUe an attcmty- an alyze the proposition anft to show tbo defeats in it , but ho made a lamentable failure , as Frank Patrick told him ho was talking to an intelligent class of people , and it was not necessary for him to read the proposition , us a Mormon road the bible , by eliminating that which did not suit him. * A Sqniira nnd Kill * Proposition. Mr. Pa'rlck said ho b'olluvod the proposi tion was square and fair. If the company did not do what it agreed to it would got nothing from the city. By voting tbo bonds men now Idle would bo given employment and thousands ot dollars would bo earned and sponl In Iho clly. The road would con nect with a half dozen largo roads in Iowa lhat wflulil como Into Omaha. In every par ticular the proposition was a good ono. It was nn opportunity of a lifo tlmo to Omaha , The difficulty at present with Omaha was tbat there were no inducements to capitalists to coma to this city. It was ati evidence of coed faith on the part of the company paving out S20.000 for the expense of the election. A man named Nelson opposed the proposi tion by the argument that the S7 , " > 0,000 could bo moro bcnefically upciit In inducing manu facturing enterprises to locnto hero. Hu ad mitted , however , that there should bo a bridge , bill ho could not understand how the proposition would bonofll the clly. He hedged somewhat on his Ideas when William McCacuo , ono of the Interested parlies in the company , explained the proposition , Mr. McCacuo spoke of Omaha's great neces sity for abridge and terminal facilities. Ho said many Omaha capitalists would llko to Invest in the enterprise If it were not for tbo fact that they were domineered over by olhor roads , The breadth of tjiu onlorpriso , ho said , was ils salvation. A brlelco ulono would not bo n success. Ho didn't think that Judge John D , Howe would endorse the prop osition If it were -not in good faith and for the host Interest of Omaha. J. Grant was tu favortof iho proposition. Ho said tbat the citizens who favored iho bonds wcro surely not all boodlora and In the boodle ring as had bnei ; referred to , Tbo road was simply to advance tbo Interests of Omaha. The kickers , he sale ) , were persons who cared nothing about the prosperity of Omuha. Ho believed every workingman - man should vote for tlio bond" .

Although fairly and squarely knocked out of the box , the Cotuor university faculty folks did not propose to glvo up. Shortly nftcr the mooting of the Sltxto Eclcctla Medical association adjourned Wednesday night tliiiy ncld n conference mid decided to try to force it reconsideration at the morn.

The Cotuor Trouble Again. The Cotnor trouble came up again under the head of medical colleges , and for two hours the faculty adherents skilfully on- deavorcd to got in their work , but without success. There was no reconsideration ahd tno move to soeuro nn endorsement of the faculty was a dismal failure. In order to carry out the Intent of the committee report adopted Wednesday evening - ing , a resolution was introduced providing ( or tbo appointment cf a now committee to thoroughly invostlgato the caso. the course or study and methods of Instruction followed by the faculty , and conferring oa the committee- power to act u it might see lit In the best interests of ec lecticism , at any tlmo between now and the next annual mo'otinij.

Ho said that the whole trouble was Kicked up by a few soreheads and malcontents , who wcro In the minority , but who wanted to rule or ruin. Ho admitted that ho and his friends had done some tall lobbying , but ho insisted that it bad been successful and that was tbo great beauty of it all. On the other huud , the opposition denied that they Imu lot un at all or that tholr causa was In any way weakened , and prom ised to ( iron the president so hard at the at- tcmoon session as to make his tooth molt.
