Park Commissioner L. A. Casper is busy
Just at present superintending n lot of Im
provements that are being made in the west
basin of Fniruiount park. That part of the
valley situated just south of the lake , has
boon uneven nml ragged , the only redeeming
feature being the beautiful sod that covered
the ground everywhere. A ( ill ranging from
six inches to four feet Is being made in this
valley , and the rough ground will ) isO
smoothed up and rendered much more
comely. The sod Is to bo preserved , how-
ovor. It is to bo scalped off and when the
lining Is done the sod will bo put back 10hi
place.
When the filling has boon completed it is
the intcntlon'of the commissioners to isc
adannzo the carriage drives in this portion
of the park. The bills
rising on all sides
cause the roads to wash badly after every
hard storm , and the macadamizing is to bo
done as much to save the road us to make It
better for driving purposes. About 2,800
feet of road will bo thus improved.
For some time past It has been talked that
an entrance to the park was needed from the
west. At present the only entrances are
those from Madison strt'ut and from the
south. It is urged that the park would
become even more popular titan it now is as
a breathing place if the city were given
some more convenient way of getting }
in. The commissioners are llguring
on a plan for putting in a road
from the west , and It it is successful the
change will in all probability be 1 made before
the opening of the ) next Kosslo . The plan is
to start the road from near the head of
Fifth avenue , running In a circuitous way
past thu property of General G. II. Dodge ,
on Third street , and llnally entering the
park on the western most Hugo.

womlcd its way across the Union Pacilic

night. The principal personages were Bar
ney McUynn and \\illlatns , the two murder-
ers who have recently become famous. It
was McGynn who it was feared would
bo lynched in Omaha Monday night ,
but the Omaha authorities , by a
clover ruse got him out. l-luiiing the crowd ,
and brought him to this sidu of tjio river ,
depositing him finally with his companion in

I.CAVO of Aluciicc.
Another of Mayor Bonds' famous yoto
messages : received attention nt the hands of
the city council last evening. Contrary to
usual custom , this veto was sustained , al
though ( a great effort was made to defeat its
purpose. The veto was as follows :
To TUB tloNOKAIIt.n THE ClTT COl'XCIl , OP
Till CITV or OMAHA Gentlemen : 1 re
turn herewith , without mv approval ,
resolution No. M of July 20 , authorizing the
comptroller ; to Include In tbo next appropria
tion ordinance an Item for W0,000 In favor of
John R Coots on account of construction of
the city hall.
sof have vetoed this resolution for the rea
son that I do not bclltn'e , in view of all the
circumstances , that the payment of $ . ' 0,000
would leave enough of a margin In the ac
count between Contractor Coots and the
city.Already , tha city has been miulo a
party in a suit brought against Mr. Coots for
suit has been dismissed , but 1 have been no-
titled that Certain mechanics employed by a
sub-contractor arc about to make the cttv n
party to another suit , and more cases of this
Itliul nro likely to develop before the matter
Is llnally cleared up.
In intuition to this , the work of Mr. Coots
in the construction of the city hall has not
i'ct been finally accepted , and there nro
many glaring defects In the construction of
the building which are unquestionably
chargeable to the contractor , anil a great
many more about which tbero is a question
as to whether they are properly chargeable
to the contractor or to the architect.
Hegardlng the defects for which the con
tractor is undoubtedly responsible , I will
say that there is something decidedly rotten
somewhere when , In a building cos tint ; a
round half million ofulollars , the wind whis
tles [ throuch tbo cracks around the windows
in nearly ; every room on the upper lloors. This
was the case to such an extent during many
days lust winter that it was impossible , with
full steam pressure , to raise the temperature
of these rooms above ilfty-threo iiegrccs ,
making seine of the rooms uninhabitable
even when overcoats were worn. This state
of affairs existed in tlio oftlces of the city
engineer , attorney , mayor , Hoard of Fire
ai t Police and Hoard of Health.
In the summer tlmo the monotony Is varied
uv mill pouring into the rooms around , over
and through the closed windows , soaking
the carpets and drenching the palatial
Kotcbam furniture.
Tlio Mooring over almost tbo entire build
ing is not of good quality. That on the fifth
iloor is sappy and of the poorest grade. In
many of tho-rooms the lloor is "springy , "
caused by thostripsdn which it Is laid being
too far apart and by tbo flooring being laid
so as to match between the strips instead of
over them. *
Tbero are many doors in the building tbo
panels of wlnrh are cracked and split , and
In some of this olHces tbo wood work is
warped and cricked , , particularly in tbo
mayor's olllcc.
It is freely charged by experts that the
I ako Superior stndslono used in the con
struction of tno buililmg is of No. " quality
instead of No. 1 , as-called for by tbo con
tract.
There arc many other defects" to which I
might call your attention , but I think 1 have
presented ) cnougn to sustain my position that
a substantial balance should bo held back
until all these matters are cleared up anc
the building Hnally/.accopted. Hespcctfully
submitted , 'Get.P. ' BEMIS , Mayor.
Air. $ tf > l Wit * Surprised.
Mr. Steel said ho was somewhat surprised
nt the statements. AIIo said that the com
mittee on public propcrty and buildings hat
devoted a day to inspecting tbo building anc
had called upon tlio mayor , but his honor hni
failed at that time to point out any defects.
Mr. Prince said a special committee hat
heretofore Investigated the alleged defect :
and the committee bad found them im
aginary.
Mr. Munro thought the mayor should bo
sustained and a competent , committee o
practical builders appointed to examiue the
buildimr.
Mr. Wheeler thought a suftlciont ainounl
would bo retained in
case this estimate was
allowed. Mr. Edwards , who hau voted to
sustain the mayor , changed bis voto.
Tlio veto was sustained by a vote of 8 to 7
Jacob II. Hauck's cluiin for personal in
Juries sustained was referred to the city at
torney.
Mayor Bemls named as appraisers for tin
southeast park George J. Paul , T. U. Brunei

The Sun Vapor Light company asked for
data as to gasoline lamps that were found
not to furnish the standard sixtccn-cumllo
power lights nnd not burning during Juno ,
deductions for the same having been made
by the committee on gas nnd electric lights.
Referred to the committee.
Mr. Kpecht introduced a resolution to the
effect that in accordance with recommenda
tions of tbo Hoard of Public Works all bids
upon asphalt bo rejected , and the board di [ |
rected to readvertlso.
Mr. Edwards and Mr. Munro inquired as
to the status of the caso. The l\ttorurped : J
that if possible the bids should bo accepted
and the paving permitted to proceed. In case
tbo people wcro determined to have asphalt
and wcro willing to pay $ -1 per yard for Itit
that was their lookout.
City Engineer Uosowator explained the
proceedings. Ho was not prepared to give a
legal opinion as to whether tbo bids should
bo rejected or accepted. Many questions
could uo raised that might Invalidate the
collections of special taxes , tn case tlio bids
were accepted , after the lapse ot , so long a
time since they were received. 'J y re&olu-
tlon 'vua adopted.
A resolution w.is adopted requustinf : the
city engineer to report at tbo next meeting

Mr. Munro oiforcjl resolution empower
ing City Klcctrlcijin CowgllMo employ an
assistant for thirty days at a salary of lot
to cxecol $05 , to enable the electrician to
make tests of tho1nrc lights. Mr. Munro
urged Hi ) adoption. Ho said the electrician
could not attend to his ofllco duties and lo -
vote his tlmo at nights to testing the ts .
Ho believed tbo question us to whether belle
lights furnished are , equal to tbucandlo
power required should bo settled.
MrVheolcr attack'dd the electrician and
said bo knew nothing of electricity. Ho
wanted to employ ini 'rttpurt and Bald ho be
lieved ono could bo secured from tbo state
university.
Mr. Els.isscr favcuxni ibo resolution. Ho
consldepd Mr. Cow..fiU | uorfoctly competent
'
and ho believed tlic'lests mailo are accurate ,
Mr. Jiicobscn thought tbo electrician

Mr. Ed wards rchasbcd the story of experts

bring with them their photometer and make
the tests of uro lights. Ho insisted on hav
ing "a professor of seine kind" to make tbo
tests , nnd did not propose to expend 115 for
oilier than an experienced man.
Mr. Steel wanted -an expert , no mutter
what it costs. Ho reiterated the story of
professors and experts that a photometric
test cannot bo made on thu street.
Mr. Melvcnrio pronounced tbo photometer
a failure. Ho said iho only fair test Is by a
measurement of the voltage ,
Mr. Munro said Omaha was very fortunate
in having an entlro city council that was
electricians and hcrfurno is extending by
pasun thereof , llo wgcA that those who
Consider thiS elcotrlclnn Incompetent take
tens to impeach him and employ exprrts to

rlc light * .
Mr. Prince said that the lights furnished
are plvlng as good satisfaction as when first

Mr. Elsnsscr said tbo case Is parallel with
hat of the gas company and when Us
'irhts ' were found ihort In c.imllo power the
bills were cut down. The lest w.is mmlo by

vcro short In candle power was fully demon-
trateil to the council ,
