8 TUB OMAHA DAILY HKR : TUKSIUY , JULY 2ISM / , . i WILL FIGHT IT TO A FINISH Real Estate Owners Take the War Path Against the Garbage Contract. IF NECESSARY WILL SEEK INJUNCTION , T.nrnl Sontlmrnt In Solid Afrnlnut thn Mon - n itnlny | VliMTft of Cltlrrn * Prpply I'.i- jirrRKrd lltitrl Mm on Their Mettle Mny lie Vetoed. The Ilcal Estate Owners association will turn a triclt or two In the RartjaRO contract panic , antl the members are determined to hold the winning card. Persuasion will bo tried and It that falls n rcstraltilnff order will stnro the councilman In the face. Yesterday afternoon the association held a mcotliiK and speedily reached the conclu sion that horolu measures were necessary to prevent tl'o ten-years contract being foisted upon tho'peoplo. Mayor Hotnls was present , ns well as Councilman Munro and Jacobsen. The mayor was there to listen , ho said , and did not offer nny sliKcrstlon as to whether ho would approve the contract or not. Mr. Munro explained thu terms of the contract and gave his vlows of the matter , being the name as printed In Tim Hun. Mr. Hicks , Mr. 1'crrlno , Mr. Gathers and the other gentlemen present expressed the satno views regarding the contract , nnd thuro was not n voice raised In Us dnfcnsu. Nothlnt ; was found to commend it to the " people. After a running discussion had been In dulged In for a few minutes a motion was adopted to the effect that a committee of three tie named tn wiilt upon the members of the council and scouro pledges from . suftl- clout number that they would vote to sus tain a veto from Mayor Dcmis to prevent the contract being passed over the mayor's head. In case It is Impossible to secure such promises the committee was empowered to apply to the courts for a restraining order. The committee- composed of lioggs , Gathers and Patterson. Vlows anil Interviews. The more the contract is looked into and discussed , the more convinced be come some of the councllmcn that they , wcro too hasty In approving It. One member said yesterday morn ing t bat it looked to him as if the contract was loaded to the mu/.zlo nnd when It was discharged the cit izens would receive tlio entire contents , and with very disastrous effects. Anumberof the councilman have expressed themselves as being ready to sustain a veto from the mayor In case bo concludes to not approve of the contract and bond. As yet no ono has tnltcn the pains to figure out what it will cost the citizens annually to secure the removal of the garbi.go under the contract. It Is estimated at the Hoard of Health olllco that an average -KXCloads are taken to the dumps each day , and of these two-thirds are hauled tliero by private con veyances and that tlio gartugo men only cart one-third. Such being the case , it Is said , that under the contract and ordinances these private conveyances will bo permitted to continue hauling. However , there is no pro vision made for a place to convoy such garbage - bago to. Mr. Mat-Donald Is under no obliga tion to receive the same on bis cars unless a fee is paid. ir. Sonicrs says that the ordi nances permit persons having stable refuse to convoy it to the country for agricultural purposes. Ho docs not bcllevo that they can afford to do so at fi ( ) cents a load , which will bo the contractor's fee for removal. The doctor considers that the contract is the best proposition over submitted to the people , and that the schema is all right. Ho docs not know but what a bolter ouo could have been secured had spceillcations been prepared and bids solicited to conform to them. Cost of KitmoUni ; ( jnrungn. While Dr. Seniors has madono estimate of the number of loads that go to the river , and the probable cost to the citizens/ seine tone else has -vho is familiar with the subject. At tl-o present time , this person estimates thati the one-third" the garbage of the city which is hauled by the garbage mon. costs on an average of ? lr > 00 per month , or flS.OOO per year. There are seven licensed haulers and as many districts. They run from one to thrco teams ouch. There nro Jlvo night soil men , and the estimate is that their business amounts to at least $15,001) ) pcr"ycar. The dead animal contractor will increase the total citizens are paying to the regular garbage men to nearly S.15,000 pel- year. Those llgurcs include all the special rates made to hotels and other laixo estab lishments. The nigtit soil men are cutting rates , and receive an average of 7 cents per cubic foot , while the new contract will com pel the payment of 10 cents. With one-third of the garbage removed at000 ) per year , under tlio tin-sent s.Vhtem , with all of the cut rates , it will mean that Mr. MacUonald will receive at least $100,000 for the llrst year of his contract if the prices named nro col lected , and ho Is permitted to remove uvery- thing.and the private haulers cut out. Those figures and estimates are given by a gentle man who is perfectly familiar with tlio situ ation and who knows all tlio ins and outs of thu garbage problem. Itixlicd tliti Contract Through. Councilman Munro , who voted against the approval of tbo contract , says : "It is strange to mo that there was such a rush to got the contract through. Kvervthing pos- slbhi was done to avoid publicity and no dis cussion was desired. That .Ibncs street dump injunction was sprung Just at the time to give the council a little scare and urge them to make hasto. The bids were in the hands of the police committee , and at Us meeting it was understood that the report should bo that the bid of MacDonald bo ro- fcrred to the committco of the whole for dis cussion , nnd that the mayor and members of tbo Hoard of Health were to bo Invited That was the agreement when I left the committco room. You may well imagine my nurpri&o when Mr. Haseall brought in his report port recommending that that tlio bid bo ac- roptod and the contract bo awarded to Mac- Donald. 1 hope the mayor will vote the contract. In case ho docs 1 am satisfied that it will bo sustained , and that there will lie more delib eration before another contract Is snapped up. " City IiitrroUi Not I'loporljJtmrded. . Councilman Jacobsen said : "I voted for tbo contract , but was not fully convinced at tbo time that it was the proper thing to do. In case tlio mayor sends in a vote 1 shall vote to sustain his "action. It Is my Judgment that wo wore the least bit too hasty. I real ize the fact that something must bo dor.o nnd thai the river dumps niu.t bo abandoned toon. It Is onlj a question of time until wo must ctaso dumping there , and wo must imiko preparations. The MiuiUonnld propo sition la all right , but lluiro must bo more bafcguards thrown about the Interests of the city. " The contract provides that the Board of Health shall designate the places whore the garbage shall bo dumped , If it is placed within two and a half or three miles of the corpora to limits. Dr. Homers says that the board has Jurisdiction thrco miles out of the city and that the contractor cannot create a dump nt any place within that limit without the consent of the board. The contractor vhall also furnish the necessary ground , and Xho doctor says permission would not bo eranted vtliuro It would prove a miisanco. Iliitol Moil Will I'ljflit It , 7ho hotel keepers will fight the new gar- bapo ordinance. They s.iy that Its terms m-o so prohibitive , as affecting them , that it would almost compel them to go out of busi ness , Heretofore , they have Icon given a cpecial rate , in consideration of the largo amount of work that they have tiad for the garbage mon , a sort \\holcsalo rate ns It were , but under tbo proposed order of things they will bo gi anted uo such concessions , nnd will bo required" to pay as much in pro portion as docs the occupant of tlio MuiUlcsl tenement In the city. Mr Thomas Swobo , proprietor of the Millartl , was asked this morning ivhat ho proposed to do nLoui It , and ho replied that ho was going to light It , Ho said further that the hute ) mini uould nil bo compelled to unite In thu light , and carry It Into the courts if necessary , as thn terms wrro so outrageous tlmt tfii > y simply could not stand it.

Lincoln's representative Jobbers and ship pers , who wore expensed to call upon Gen eral Manager Holdrego nnd labor for a re storation of the Lincoln differential , failed to show up at Hurllngton headquarters yester day , although n solitary Lincoln merchant , Mr. Humphrey , an Implement dealer , poured a tale of woo Into the cars of the general manager of the Hurllmrton system , with examples of dlro nnd awful happenings should the railroad people Insist upon inak- Idg the Missouri river the basing point fur all classes of freight , as provided In the maximum rate bill. It Is understood among rallroad men that RQJIIO of tlio Lincoln Jobbers have gonoso far as to nrgo the Hurlington being enjoined from putting In the now tariff on tbo ground that should the railroads shrink tlio present differential of 5 cents per hundred In favor of Lincoln It would sound the death knell to the growing Jobbing Interests of the city. The now tariffs for South Omaha. Omaha and Lincoln will bo ready by the end of the week , and they will show exactly what the now rates are from any point to nny point. A general freight agent yesterday said in response to a question of a reporter : "Hoyond all question it is the Intention of tlio railroads to rigidly enforce the max imum rate bill and wherever the bill gives the roads n chance to oven up matters by conceding certain things to the systems , you may bo sure they will take advantage of the situation. " AVnrlil'H Pair Hmhu'ii Mi-lit. The demand for coach excursion tickets , on sale yesterdaywas oven moro limited than on the Inauguration of the scheme a week ago , and the moguls of tlio railways have finally recognized , that outside of n radius of 200 or 300 miles ot Chicago , there is positively uo demand for these limited tickets at ? lo. "In fact , " as a pissongcr agent said yes terday , "no rate would move business at this time , because tbo people havon'tgot the money. It is something worthy of consider ation that the railroads did a big ger passenger business in May than during any month since. However - over , the magnates will got together aualn tomorrow and attempt to reduce rates in which they will undoubtedly bo success ful , as tlio Sinta Fo insists upon a one-faro rate being maite and the abolishment of the coach excursions. "My opinion is that the rate will bo about ono fare , possibly a dollar or two added to protect the single trip tickets from falling into the hands of the brokers , " Mr Lomax , who is still in Chicago , has not yet made up his mind to put in a rate of $18 second class from Portland to the river which would relieve the present difficulty to a largo extent. While ho has been urged to do this and take the bull bv the horns ho is inclined to make haste slowly. The meeting today may , however , put a dif ferent aspect on tlio situation in the north west. nliort ItuiiH. J. O.

J. U.

General Manager Hurt received a number of farmers on the line of the Elhhorn in the north part of the state last week and list- cned to their woes of what will ensue should the commodity rates on hay bo removed.

The county commissioners Intended to sit as a board of impeachment yesterday to bear the charges preferred apainst Daniel C. Dailey , the constable of West Omaha pre cinct , in which it was alleged that ho was not a resident of thtf precinct and that ho had appropriated funds which belonged to others. When they got uown to the hearing Dailey discovered that some of his witnesses were out of the city , and consequently , in order to glvo him a show for his white ally , the case went over for one v/eolc. Taking up routine business , the commis sioners approved the bond of the Merchants National bank and named that institution as ono of the depositories for the county funds. The sureties on the bond of Frank Shan non , a Justice of the peace , asked to bo re lieved of the responsibilities of keeping their principal in the straight and narrow path , but the matter was referred. Once again the commissioners and the county treasurer crossed swords over the possession of tlio little room in the rear ot the treasurer's-onieo. but the latter named county oflleial holds the fort. Commissioner Williams stated that it was his intention to fit tlio room up for the county attorney , but when ho went tboro with the workmen the treasurer locked the door and refused him admittance.

Mc- Carger , a contractor and builder of this city , when ho attempted to use the government at Washington for a collection agency , for by so doing lie became the defendant to a 810- 000 law suit. Not many months ago tbis particular con tractor and builder wrote a letter to the postmaster general , in which , ho charged that E. U. Overall , ono of the mail carriers , was a man who did not pay bis debts. Going into details he wrote that some years ago ho built n house for Mr. Overall and that the sum of $ lr > 0 remained unpaid Tlio letter was returned to Postmaster Clarkson who called the attention of Carrier Overall to the contents of the missive. Instead of Mr. Overall walking up to the captain's desk and handing over the money , ho at once hired a lawyer and ordered him to sue the contractor for ? 10,000 , alleging that the writing of the letter had damaged his repu tation and that It has brought him into public scandal and disgrace.

The carpenters ami a noisy crew they are began up on the third lloor one day last week. They took the old lloor up from the rafters where it's laid for so long and pitched it out of the building for good and all. lu r a few days they ran things as they liked up there and when they quit at the end of the week we'd a new lloor and a few more comforts to thank them for. Today they're down on second lloor with their hamm.rs-and picks and saws and nails creating dire confusion wherever they see fit. Stocks are being shifted 'round from place to place parts of the Horn-are old parts are new ami in some places there's no lloor at all just beams that's all. 'Midst all this dust and noise we're doing a little car penter work on our own account : "cutting" down the prices on some thin clothes that we "saw" were going slowly putting them into the quick-moving class "hammering" them out at prices th.il it's "plane" to be seen "augur"well for your pockctbopk ; at such prices as to "nail" your attention immediately ; cutting the $1.25 alpaca coats to 75 ; ami the $1.75 ones to $1.25 ; cutting drap d 'etc coats and vests the finest kinds that should be $1.5 ( ) and $5.00 to $ : t.0 ( ) and $ : l.50 ; ham mering down the line kinds of flannel coats to a dollar ninety apiece your si/.e and color among them ; selling a few odd sl/.es of line coats and vests of difVerent sorts at from one to two dollars less than we sold file same kinds only a week ago. It's a muss that we ask you to trade in up on the ccoiulfloor _ _ today-but you can save enough in fifteen minutes time to pay yon for a day's discomfort and fifteen minutes is not long only a quarter of an hour at most.
