Somotbing Further on the Subject of Re

ONE FACT OF INTEREST CONSIDERED
Qucillou | of Wlinio Property l < AMOtird
Alleged to Determine the Action *
of .Soino of the City
Council.
"Tho article In this morning's Br.n sized
the motor assessment up about right , " re
marked a level headed democrat yesterday ;
' 'tho claim of the aldermen that they don't
know anything about the value of the prop
erty that they are to assess , excepting what
McCabe tells them is nil bosh. On the
other hand , all they know about what the
assessment ought to bo from the standpoint
of the motor company Is what the assessor
tells them , but it Is very evident that they
are dead anxious to accept the word of the
assessor on the subject. And the assessor
sells bis dot's to the motor company nt $75
apiece , too. ' '
Ono Intctcstlng nnd signltlcant fact Is the
way In which the city council treats other
property owners as compared with the
motor company , K. A. Wickham during the
past winter commenced the erection of a
largo Implement building on lower Main
street. H was completed May 1 and Is now
ready for occupancy. At the last meeting
of the Board ot Equalization Wlckham
was present and entered a vigorous pro
test against the action of the assessor , who
had assessed the building at $ (5,000. ( Ho did
not object to the slzo of the assessment , but
ho thought ho ought not to have to pay the
saino amount of taxes as ho would have
ttono If the building had been completed
January 1. Ho oflercd to compromise
for one-half , and his proposition was the
subject of considerable discussion. "Oh ,
well. " said ono of the aldermen.
"Wickham can stand It better than a good
many people. I guess wo'd hotter lot It
stand. " And It stands. It has been sug
gested that men who have the enterprise
manifested by Mr. Wickham In tliu erection
of such buildings as the ono referred to
might properly bo given a little encourage
ment. But the city fathers seem to have no
fnvors excepting for the motor company ,
which , as Alderman Nicholson naively says ,
"aou't seem to pay any attention to any
thing wo do. "
A movement Is now on foot to have a bill
introduced in the next legislature to put
electric railways under the control of the
state railway comtulsslon , In which case the
citizens will not bo entirely at the mercy of
a few aldermen.
A vigorous effort will naturally bo made
by the motor company and all other com
panies of the kind to defeat a measure of
that kind , hut the chances of corrupting a
whole legislature are not so good as of buyIng -
Ing a llttlo city council , and the prime movers
in the project have hopes of accomplishing
the end hi view.

Where is Kittle ?
Henry Lambreoht , a miller at Bcemer ,
Neb. , arrived in the city yesterday to JOOK
after the interests of the firm with which ho
is connected in the recent Hour deal , of
which mention was made in THE BEE n day
or two ago. Ho Immediately served notice
on all the other parties concerned to release
their claims upoa the Itour that he had
shipped Rittlg , and will at once proceed to
replevin the property , the other claimants
refusing to let go.
In the ineuntlmo Hittig is missing and his
frlonds claim not to have the slightest Idea
where ho has gone. W. II. ICnophor states
that ho has not seen him for twb days , which
indicates that he must have left for parts
unknown about the time the account of the
transactions In which ho figured was first
made public through THE BEE.
Lambrecht stated to one of Marshal Tom-
pleton's deputies yesterday that ho sold a
part of the carload of Hour which \vasjon- !
slgncd to Hitting for $1.50 , and the rest for
51,00 , Kitting to pay the freight In each case.
As a matter of fact , Hitting at once hopped
into the market und sold 1,000 pounds to a
lady fc living at 1017 Fifth avenue at
the rate of 80 cents per 100. Where is
Hlttlngt is the question which is now agitat
ing the minds of his creditors , but the
theory that finds most followers is that ho
has gone to some sequestered spot to llguro
out how long it would take him to become a
millionaire in a business that was carried on
at a dead loss of 50 per cent. Ho has
evidently gone off with the idea of allowing
his creditors to fight out their battles as
best they may.

The last of the evidence In the damage
suit of Krugcr against the city was taken
yesterday in the district court , and the case
will go to the jury today , most of yesterday
having been taken up with the arguments of
the attorneys , who are not yet through.
Ono of the most intercstingr things
of the whole trial was a deposition which
was sccureo by J. J. Stewart during his
term as city attorney from Cnarles Sanders
of Valley county , Nobvaska , a nephew of
Emma ICrugcr , who was supposed to
have died from the effects of a fallen
on a defective sidewalk. In the
deposition Sanders stated that his
aunt suffered with her limb as
far back as 1875 , before she left the old
country , and in identically the same way ns
before her death. The trouble , ho said , wrs
the result of the birth ot her lirst child and
the abuse of her husband , the plainti ? in the
present suit. Sanders also mentioned inci
dentally that he had been approached by
John Morplo and asked to sign some papers ,
Morgle agreeing to pay him ? o if ho did so.
The case of the First rsation bank of Chicago
cage against the Coancil Bluffs Gas and

dap afternoon and the examination of W. S.

went merrily on all afternoon. The trial so
far has been noted mostly for the ignorance
of the superintendent upon matters about
which the plaintiffs want to iind out , and the
dramatic pugnacity of the attorney for the
defense.

LINCOLN. Nob. , ) May 19. [ Special Tele
gram to Tins BGit.u-ivr ] ; several days
rumors affecting'Iho solvency of the
Nebraska Savings bank at Thirteenth
anil O streets Imvo been rife , and
quito a run was inaugurated Tues
day. It continued all day yesterday , but it
was : not until this morning that any big rush
was made. The usual hour for opening the
bank is 0:30 : , but long bcforo that hour the
doors wcro besieged by a big crowd of de
positors anxious to secure their money , and
ite.i became necessary to open them nti hour
earlier.
e.idc The bnnk Is one of the designated school
depositories , and for the llrst. two hours the
chief claimants for their money were school
children , whoso deposits ranged from less
. than H to $20. All morning and during the
noon hour the run progressed , and all per
sons who demanded their money wcro
promptly given it. At onu time the demand
became so great that J , II. McClRy. cashier
Ol the Columbia National bank , found It
necessary to address the crowd , telling them
to bo patient and they would receive the
money ; thai the other banks in the city
stood behind the institution , and every del
lar of deposits would bo paid.
\Vlmt the Kxnmlner 8ny .
Bank Examiner Cowdery , In speaking of
the run , said : "I am prepared to say there
Is no ground whatever for alarm. I have
looked into the condition of the bank and I
believe the bank can pay every dollar of its
liabilities. Doubtless under ordinary condi
tions there would bo no thought of with
drawing funds from the bank , but these are
not ordinary times. The previous failure hero
and the many failures throughout the coun
try have made the people unduly suspicious.
I have examined tno bank. I have looked
over its paper and I believe It Is all right.
Moro than that , every bank in the city to
my personal knowledge has tendered It their
utmost assistance. To break that bank it
will bo necessary to break every bank In the
city of Lincoln , which , It strikes me , would
be a pretty largo job. "
Considerable Cash Itecjulroil.
The run continued nil afternoon dcspito
the fact that every one who presented their
accounts received their monoy. The Clear
ing House association was represented by C.
II. Morrill. who came this morning with $50-
000 in cash to back up the $0,000 tiio bank
had on hand to stand the run , with $50,000
more in reserve to draw upon If found ncccs-
sarv. The deposits had been pulled down
$10,000 by the runs of Tuesday and Wednes
day , but the big rush today reduced it some
$20,000 more. The officials figure that with
the cash on hand they can stand a three
days run , and bcforo that time they think
the scare will bo exhausted.
From all that can bo learned It was a
needless scare. The bank deposits amounted
to put ei7,000 ! ! , jwhile the value of their se
curities and paper is fixed by competent au
thorities atlbOQQO. The capital ftock is
5250,000 , one-fifth 'of which has been paid up.
The bank was a little hard up , but with
time would have come' but all right unaidod.
The prediction is made that it will come out
of the ordeal stronger.than ever.
No Ca'uno for Alarm.
Nearly all of the stockholders are men of
ample means. Under'tho laws of the s.tate
stockholders are liable for twice the amount
of subscribed capital , " The capital stock is
$250,000. one-fifth of which is paid up. The
stockholders arc liable , and moro than re
sponsible , for about five limits the amount of
the . . deposits , and thre arc no other im
portant claims acrainstvtho bank , so that de
positors would riot have lost a cent even
though the bank had been obliged to sus
pend.
The deposits of pupils in the public
schools aggregate about $5,000 , and are
secured by a bond for $50,000 now in the
hands of the school board and bearing the
signature of men worth many times that
amount.

was established as against W. Ii Silbcr-
horn , the Chicago packer. Some time ago
Silberhorn nnd/A. S. Garrctson of this city
entered iijto a venture to buy $700,000 ot the
stock of tlic Union Stock yards at San Fran
cisco. To do this they borrowed $245,000 of
the defunct Union Loan & Trust company ,
for which Silberhorn gave his forty-nine In
dividual notes for ; f5,000 each. It was agreed ,
though , that Qarrotson was to bo liable for
half the notes , nnd that whenever one-half
of any note was paid , the trust company waste
to indemnify him against the other half by
surrendering him the noto.
The stock yards stock was deposited as
collateral for the notes. When it became
evident that the trust company wds going to
fail , Sllberhorn. OarrotBon nnd the trust
company entered into a contract in compli
ance with the agreement. Sllberhorn had
already tnkon up five notes in full , and
brought action to secure five more under the
contract that he was to pay but half on each
noto.
The court decided that the contract is
subsequent to the issuance of the notes nnd
therofc.ro void. It also refused to order the
assignee to deliver the stock collateral In
proportion to the amount paid , holding that
it .shall bo held to guarantee the payment of
all the notes.

There is a nutritive element
n ale and beer but it is small
there is the intoxicating effect ,
too. That is a strong objec
tion. Yet ale and beer are
used and benefit health at
times. There is another
iquid , the active principal of
malt Johann Hoffs Malt Ex
tract. One dozen bottles of it
las the same nutritive effect
as a large cask of ale or beer.
That's an advantage another ,
it has not the intoxicating
effect of either , It helps di
est and assimilate food ,
creates appetite , makes the
weak strong and healthy. Be
sure to obtain the genuine.
