The most Important Item of business
transacted In the district court yesterday
was the decision rendered by Judge Dcomer
In the 1'lattsmouth railway garnishment
cases. Thd decision concerns tlio people of
both Iowa and Nebraska , nnd wipes off the
court docket fifteen suits at one fell swoop.
It will bo remembered that upon the orig
inal trial of the suits in Justice Fox's court
two attorneys from Plattsmouth wore lined
for contempt of court , the contempt consistIng -
Ing In an aflldavlt In which they stated
under oath that In their belief the court
was non compos mentis. This was but
an incident In the trial , but when Fox finally
heard all of the evidence and decided In
favor of the collection agency of Sioux City
and against the railway men whoso accounts
had been bought up by the agency , It was
referred to by the two attorneys as an indi
cation that the decision of the court had not
been according to lloylc. The case was
taken up to the district court upon a motion
for a writ of error. Yesterday Judge Deemer
decided the case , sustaining Fox in every
point of his decision , and mentioning inci
dentally that the two Plattsmouth lawyers
got no moro medicine than was good for
their constitution.

AnilrowH Company If SulUclciit Season
Tickets ar Kiilisrrlhrd For.
For some time Manager Dohany has been
negotiating with the Andrews Opera com
pany with a view of giving a season of llrst-
class grand and cotnlc , opera , Ho tlnds bo
can scriiro this company for three nights ,
commencing Juno " 'J , and for a matinee , but
the company's representative declines
to place It for so long an engagement unless
there Is a guaranty that at least a portion
of the extraordinary expense will bo met.
While Mr. Dohany believes there is little
risk in assuming this obligation , ho
proposes to make assurance doubly sure by
testing Iho public demand by starting a sub
scription sale of commutation books. These
commutation books liavo an advantage over
the rciruhir season ticket , because they can
bo used as desired by the purchaser , A
hook consists of six tickets which are gooa
detached , and exchangeable at the box ofllco
for reserved seats , the first choice of winch
is given bookholdcrs. The entire six tickets
may bo used for ono performance , if desired.
Two or moro persons may buy a book
together , as they have no restrictions upon
them , being transferable at pleasure.
The Andrews Opera company Is.onc of the
strongest and oldest opera organizations in
the country. It has been steadily before
the public and constantly gaining in
popularity for ten years. They have
just returned from a very successful
southern trip. There are thirty-eight people
in the company , a first-class orchestra , ele
gant costumes and special scenery.
Its principals are artists of national repu
tation , among them being Marie Hoe , Flor
ence Clayton , .Tesao Andrews , Harriet Hart ,
V. H. West , Charles Campbell , K. F. Sea-
mans , the famous George and ISdward An
drews , Fred Clayton and tno celebrated
dancing comedian. II. W. Mallen of the Now
York Casino , besides others who have occu
pied Important positions in metropolitan
organizations.
Mr. Dohany and Mr. Taylor , the repre
sentative of the company , will start the list
this morning , and 10(1 ( must be sold to secure
the company. The books will bo sold at the
low price of 54. Opera season is the fail now
in all largo cities , and Council Bluffs should
bo on the list.

plnlii-A Dlvltfori of Sentiment.
The council last evening considered the
fuel gas franchise that Is asked for by the
Omaha Fuel Gas company. The members
listened to the report of Gas Inspector Gil
bert , who went to Maysvlllo , Ky. , nnd made
a test of the gas manufactured there by the
same process It Is proposed to put In here.
It was n lengthy communication from the
representative of the company , setting
forth the beauties of fuel gas , and claiming
for It n solution of the fuel question. Coun
cilman Saunders , who has given the matter
much thought nnd attention and Is enthusi
astic In support of the proposition
to give the company thp franclso It
socks also spoke at length. Notwithstand
ing the enlightenment given on the subject ,
It was nearly midnight when the council ad
journed , and the members were as far from
reaching a conclusion as they were several
hours previous. The trouble was that the
Information was not In harmony , nnd that
too many conflicting statements were made.
Gas Inspcctqr Gilbert and Mr. Saunders
failed to agree , nnd the former pronounced
the whole thing ns an Impossibility , while
the Fifth ward alderman assumed exactly
tlio opposite position.
Mr. Munro was called to the chair when
the council went into the committee of the
wholo. A lengthy communication from the
1 company was read giving the history of
fuel gas und pointing out the many benefits
It would confer upon the people of Omaha If
manufactured here. Clerk Groves started
In to read tlio ordinance granting a franchise
to the company. Ho was interrupted by Mr.
Jacobscn , who wanted Information touching
the whole matter. Mr. Saundcrs re
sponded. Ho had visited tlio Maysvlllo
plant nnd had made inquiries there. Every
body was pleased wltn the gas and
spoke highly of it. One party had Informed
him that ho paid $20 for gas for three months
for fuel purposes. The result of his Investi
gations were perfectly satisfactory , and ho
was fully convinced that the gas would solve
the fuel question In Omana. In Chicago the
natural gas is furnished 15OUO ! consumers
at 50 cents per 1,000 cubic feet , the
artificial at ? 1 , while the Omaha com
pany will make an average charge of10
cents. If the company was willing to accept ,
the franchise fixing the price of the gas to
the consumer , and would invest 200,000 in a
plant , tno city had nothing to lose , and would
not bo affected in case the gas could not bo
furnished at the prices named. If the com
pany did cotno It would mean competition in
the fuel line , and that certainly was needed
in view of the pripo of coal , lie said tlio
chief promoters of tlo ) scheme were J. N.
Houston , cx-trcasu-cr | , of the United States ,
of Connersvllle , Ind. , and ex-Congressman
W. P. Owen of Logansport.
Gas Inspector filbert's report was then
read. He had made two tests at Maysville.
and the llrst time f > p,000 cubic feet of gas
was mado. Figuri'nK lip the air that entered
the gas , after allowing 10 per cent for slip on
the blower and 0 per cent for the tempera
ture of the air , ne" fdilnd that 8'J.OOO feet of
air had entered the gas , and that the whole
mixture wi's 78 pcrtcClit of air. The second
test on 72,000 cubic feet of gas showed that
110 per cent of the mixture was air. in view
of the price for pure gas lie could not recom
mend that the people of Omaha be called
upon to pay for a mixture that contains 80
per cent of air ,
Mr. Gilbert was requested to explain ver
bally more fully tp'tho council regarding the
tests , which he did. He then explained how
the tests were mado. Also that ho found u
harmless looking pipe that carried oil to the
generator , but it did not pass through the
meter and was used to deceive. It required
four times the amount of oil and double the
amount of coal to manufacture 1,000 cubic
feet of gas than the company claimed. Ho
said it was impossible to furnish gas of a
good quality for ao cents a foot. Ho consid
ered that the people who were now seeking
the franchise hero had beo.i gulled into buy
ing something that is worthless. Mr. Gil
bert drew from his pocket an acreement
with Harris , the owner of the patent , that
created a surprise. Mr. Gilbert is the
owner of $200,000 in stock in the Consolidated
Gas company , which ho ays is the same as
operates the Maysvillo plant. He acquired
the stock by surrendering some of his
patents on manufacturing of fuel gas. Ho
pronounces the Maysvillo plant as being a
modification of his patent. While ho is thus
pccuniarly interested , yet ho said , ho be
lieved it wrong for the company to claim to
furnish gas at such a low figure , when it
could not do it , and ho denounced the effort
as n fraud ,
Mr. Jacobson wanted no hasty action , and
thought that it would bo wlso to wait until
the plant the company is putting in at Bur
lington Is in operation before the franchise
is granted.
Mr. Saunders made another strong pita
for the granting of the franchise , and thor
oughly "roasted" Harris , the patentee ,
whom ho called a fraud , and assorted that
ho had no connection with the Kentucky com
pany. Ho also read a lengthy letter from
Mr. Owen , a member of the company. He
criticised Mr. Gilbert's report , called atten
tion to the analysis of the gas by eminent
chemists , and claimed everything good for
it. Ho said the company would ngreo o
have In operation by Juno 1 , 1894 , a y.000,0 0
foot plant , and it shall then bo tested and tf
it does not produce 400 heat unit gas it Is
not to bo operated , but If It does ten miles
of mains shall bo In * operation by the first of
October the same year.
Mr. Wheeler didn't propose to vote away
any moro franchises until ho was convinced
it would bo a public benefit. From the in
formation ho had it looked very much as if
there was fraud. Ho read extracts from u
couple of trade journals pronouncing the
Harris system a fraud , and in ono the Mays
vlllo plant was particularly referred to.
Mr. Prince wanted a test made In Omaha ,
and he was not ready to vote away a fran
chise whllo u doubt existed as in this case.
By agreement the whole matter was re.
forrcd to the committee on Judiciary , with
the gas inspector , city engineer and city nt <
tornoy for further Investigation and in
formation.

Don't Let Sickness Follow You
Through , the Summer.
If one could bo patient ho could nvoiil
many troubles.
But it is worse than folly to bo patient
with nn attack of neuralgia or rheuma
tism , or any complaint that arises from
disorders of the nervous system. Such
patience is not n virtue ; it is ignorance
of the great danger that lies in delay
when ono is llrst attacked with tv nerv
ous disonto.
No troubles Hatter tlio patient with
such hopes of tecovery as do diseases ot
this nature , and diseases of this nature
comprise two-thirds the ills that flesh is
heir to. Attend to your nervous sya-
