DESPICABLE WORK OF HAZE AND SHOOP

Miirtlu of the District.
Haze nnd Sheep have , without the
least shadow ot authority , forcibly en
tered the house of a respectable lady ,
who Is the wlfo of one ot the well
known firemen employed at engine house
'No. 3 , on two different occasions and the
woman's Indignant protests were Ignored
with the remark that they would come
Into her house whenever they pleased.
Mrs. Maggie McKrny , wlfo of Fireman
George McKray , has suffered from this
latest outrage. She Is a respectable woman
who Is well connected with some of the
best people In Omaha , and her reputation
has always been above suspicion by these
who know her best. Mr. and Mrs. McKray
Jlvo at 1817 Leavcnworth street , where they
have furnished a number of rooms which
are rented to respectable people who have
lived with them for several months and
seine of the roomers have been with Mr.
nnd Mrs. McKray for three or four years.
The rent of the rooms assists In defraying
the family household expenses and they
have been enabled to furnish their homo
In a comfortable and substantial manner.
But either Mr. or Mrs. McKray has Incurred
the displeasure of thcso august Individuals ,
Ilazo and Sheep , and they seem to bo seek
ing to persecute the woman In every con
ceivable manner.
These officers went to Mrs. McKray's homo
on the evening of May 31 and ringing the
boll didn't wait for a response , but walked
right In and demanded to know If she had
any girls rooming with her. Without a
ecarch warrant or through any other legal
process they made a search ot the premise ; ) ,
after which Haze took out a book , remarking
that ho would have to take Mrs. McKray's
name down. She was In Ignorance as to
what they meant or were there for and
earnestly protested against such action. She
Eays that Haze made a move as If ho was
going to erase her name when Sheep spoke
up and said : "No , you can't do that ; we
must glvo her name to Chief Seavey , and
then decide whether or not she can live here
any longer. "
* The o Ulcer s then left and as soon as Mrs.
McKray could Inform her husband of what
had happened the matter was laid before
Chief Seavey , who requested the parties to
make affidavit to the facts , which was done.
Wednesday Mr. and Mrs. McKray learned
that Ilazo had gene to ono of their friends ,
who Is the wlfo of a Fifteenth street saloon
keeper , and slandered her reputation In a
scandalous manner , and saying that she was
not only running a house of assignation ,
but was a street-walker. Prepara
tions were made to lay the case before the
commissioners , and Mr. McKray consulted
an attorney last night.
I3ut the matter did not end here. Wednesday
night about 11 o'clock these worthies , Haze
and Sheep , went to Mrs. McKray's residence
again. They rang the door , bell and as soon
as she opened the door they pushed in past
her , and in spite of her telling them that
their actions were unlawful and unwar
ranted , they again searched , the house ,
going through each room. Mrs. McKray told
them that they had no right to do this , but
ono of the officers said that they would como
there as often as they pleased , and would go
through her house whether she l.ked It or
not.
Yesterday Mr. McKray could hardly bo
restrained In his actions when ho realized
the disgrace these officers were trying to
put upon himself and family , but ho ac
cepted wiser counsel , and with some In
fluential friends laid the matter before Com
missioner Hartman , who assured them that
the matter would receive Immediate consid
eration from the board , and he thought that
the officers should bo Immediately sus
pended.
INTO MAIITIN'S HANDS.
Hiiro nncl Sheep Dolnc Good Work for the
T mlorloln Cznr.
Mr. il. P. Martin , In his prosecution of the
women In the burnt district , has had the
very actlvo and enthusiastic co-operation of
the police. Instances without number hnvo
been reported where the machinery ot the
police department has been sot In motion
apparently for no other purpose than to aid
Martin In his warfare against the women
who have , protested against his manner of
robbing them. Whatever virtue may rest
In Martin's claim of a pull with the pnlico
ch'lof there Is no question of the excellent
assistance ot some of the members ot the
police department.
Martin has for a long tlmo practiced a plan
for getting rid of tenants who have lucnmo
unruly. Some of the women have become
rebellious against Martin's rent exactions
nnd czarlah methods and have made efforts
to get out from his clutches. Then the
fine work ot his system has been tluwn.
It the woman tries to start a business In
any placa outsldo of Martin's prcjirvo she
Is at once harassed by the police until he
Is compelled to leave 'ho city or revjrnr to
Martin's clutches. Blrdlo Matin had an
experience of this kind. When sl > e started
i a hotel In the Elkhorn Valley hou.ie she was
at once told by Martin that she could m.t do
business at that place as ho owned the
street , had a pull with the chief of pullce
nnd he wanted her bacsc In the dls'.ikt.
Miss Mann did not propone to move. Slo
had been through trouble enough with Mar
tin. Dut she had to rsturn to the district
Just the same. Martin called upon l.ls
friends In the police deoir'ment and the call
was promptly answercJ. An olllsar war
stationed on the beat near the Elkhorn Vol
ley house and his chief duty seemed to lo
to warn prospective patrons of the house
that they had not be'.t-ir go In there as the
place was liable to be pulled that night.
Another Instance of tno clllcacof a pul !
properly worked. It soon became evident
to Miss Mann that tin combination against ,
her was too strong and tmo is now back donn
In the district paying trlunto to Martin.
Dut the police have favored Martin In
more ways than warning patrons against
visiting the houses of people who are not In
the favor of Czar Martin. Inmates of the
houses of 111 repute who have rebelled
against Martin have been forced to leave
the city by ULS police. Numerous Instances
have occurred ot arrests that have been
mailo by the police on the most trivial
charges simply to carry out Martin's plan
of ridding the district of people who were
objectionable to Martin. A girl was ar
rested a few nights ago for refusing to pay
n cob driver ? l to take her to the telegraph
ofilco and return. The faro was exorbitant
nnd the girl offered to pay the driver the
regular fare of 60 cents. The driver called
ono of Martin's policemen and ho promptly
arrested the girl for refusing to pay the
extortion. She paid the $1 and was dis
missed. Another girl , who did not belong
to Martin's favored circle , was arrested
because she stepped out of the door with a
friend who had called. She was taken to
the police station , but was dismissed by the
Judge. Another girl only opened the door
to allow a caller to depart , but she was
not quick enough In closing It. An officer
made a break for the door , which was
closed In his face. Ho forced the door
nd had the girl arrested for resisting an
officer. She was finally compelled to leave
the city to make room for a more tract
able subject who would consent to bo robbed
by Martin and bled by cab drivers and
police without protest. The women of the
district have no rights where they conflict
with the greed of Martin or the pleasure or
profit of his favored coppers.
Hut the greatest service that the police
have rendered Martin Is being performed
now. IHa revenues , ho asserts , have been
running low on account of the hard times
nd many of the beat paying tenants have
gone out ot business , and ho found It neces-
ary to do something to again put his bust-
nets on a highly profiti.blo basis , The
action of the police In ordering all women
of looao character to take up residence In
the district could not have been moro to
his purpose If ha had planned the order
himself ami tiero Is no direct evidence
that It was not hU plan. And hero comes a
peculiar feature of the pollco part In
tbo play. Homo months BEO Chief Ilazo and
Sergeant Stgwart made a report to the chli
of pollco on the prostitution and IIOURO <
assignation business. In their report the !
officers tinted that there were but two ni
slgnatlon houses In the city outsldo of th
burnt district , and that there were no prof
tltutcs outside of the proscribed limits. Du
It Is all different now. Martin wants mor
tcnnntfl , and Haze and Sheep have been bus
for several days serving notlco on all lew
women living outsldo the palo to at one
remove to the district. It Is somewhn
astonishing to sec how the business ha
grown outsldo of the district In so nhor
a time. Chief Detective Ilazo Is authorlt ;
for the statement that he and his colaborc
Sheep have already served notlco upon lift ;
women to move Into Martin's game prcserv
at once , and they will not bo through will
their work for several days. This Is , o
course , good news to Martin , Fifty new ten
ants will cnablo him to dispense with sonnet
ot his unruly renters , will enable him ti
restore his former scale of high prices , am
wilt placa him under Increased obligation ;
to his friends , the police.
The pollco have neglected some very 1m
portnnt matters In their haste to carry ou
Mr. Martin's wishes In the matter of In
creasing the population of the district
When the dead body of Maud Tlubel wai
found under the Tenth street viaduct Thurs
day the matter was at once reported to tin
pollco. Haze , as chief ot detectives , nnd Scr
geant Sheep , In charge of the patrolmen Ir
that end of the city , nt once reported nt the
scene of the murder. Neither of the officer :
took any clmrgo of the casb , however ,
Neither of them gave any direction to mer
under them or outlined any plan to bo pur
sued In searching for the perpetrator of the
crime. After the officers had viewed the
body ot the dead girl , and found It would
not bo necessary to servo a notice upon hoi
to remove to the district , they wont out or
their other work. A murder or two did not
count with them. They were out after now
tenants far Martin.

VIOLATION OF SIDE TRIP AGREEMEN
Union rnclfla Ofllclal Strttcs the Position ti
that Company Helen and 1'r.uik
Gould Inspecting Missouri
Pacific Lines.
Western passenger rate troubles grov
apace , and If the Hock Island should cnrr
out Its threat to put a $15 round trip rati
from Chicago to Denver and $11 from tin
Missouri river , the prettiest kind of rati
war would result.
When the last meeting of the Wcsterr
Passenger association was held the roads
having made contracts through the Influenci
of side trips were compelled to show up41icsi
contracts and asked to protect thorn with i
money consideration , which they agreed tt
do. Dut It appears that since that tlim
other roads hove entered the side trip feature
of a visit to Denver and are advertising tin
same to the everlasting disgust of the trim )
lines making an effort to play fair. All o
this has a tendency to unsettle business , am
the wlteacres predict that should the Hod
Island bo "brash" enough to name a rote c :
$11 from the Missouri river to lcnver and return >
turn It would cause such a shaking up onions
the dry bones as the west has never seen.
It Is alleged that the Union Pacific Is one
of the roads which has never paid any at
tention to the agreement and continues tc
advertise free side trips from Denver over
Its Georgetown line. This statement la em
phatically dented by the passenger depart
ment of the Union Pacific , Assistant General
Passenger Apent Paynq stating that the only
advertisements now In circulation are the
Itlnerarles'and printed matter ot various or
ganizations which show side trips , and which
were made before the agreement was reached
that no side trips should be Included In the
fare. "Thojo contracts wo will bs comoelled
to protect with a money consideration , for
the reason that they were made prior to
any agreement , but being anxious to with
draw anything that might tend to demoral
ization wo agreed to protect our contracts.
Since the agreement the Union Pacific 1ms
not advertised a single side trip as a feature
to get business. What organizations are
doing Is something we cannot help In view of
the fact that contracts were made at a time
when there was little likelihood of an agree
ment being reached. If all the roads would
live as closely up to their agreements we
would have little trouble In the passenger
business. "
EXCURSION BUSINESS CAUSKS TROUHLK
Likelihood that the Now Western I'asgoiiRcr
Agreement Will llo Smashed.
CHICAGO , Juno 7. Trouble Is coming
again upon the Western Passenger associa
tion , and the chances arc that It will have
a largo amount of It this tlmo. The Atchl-
son has made a demand upon the lines which
It suspects of violating the excursion agree
ment to at once Inform It whether they pro
pose to abide by the agreement or not , and
If so , when they will begin to observe It.
Unless a satisfactory ans'wer Is returned at
once the Atchlson will at once glvo notice of
withdrawal from the excursion agreement
and begin business on Its own account. The
lines which were requested to give an ac
count of themeslves are the Burlington , the
Alton and the Union Paclflci
The notice of the Atchlson means substan
tially that the entire- excursion agreement
of the assdclatlon will be thrown overboard
and a general scamble'for excursion business
will result , with a wholesale demoralization
of rates as the result. Chairman Caldwell
Is doing his utmost to keep the trouble from
becoming"'serious , but1 there Is small chance
of his success , as several 'of the roads have
made contracts In direct vlolaton of the
agreement and have no Intention of letting
them go.

ENJOINED THE COUNCIL.
Action Brought to Tcit the Legality of L
.M. Khucm'g Appointment.
If Louis M. Rhecm , the alleged city elec
trician , draws a salarysffrom the city
treasury It will be after having fought a
suit through the courts , brought for the
purpose of testing his right to hold the
ofilce.
On May 3 of the present year Councilman
Dan H. Wheeler Introduced a resolution ap
pointing Rheem to the olllce of city elec
trician. When the resolution reached the
hands of Mayor Bemls he attached his veto ,
raising the question that the council was
assuming and taking control of the appoint
ing power which alone was vested in the
mayor. In the veto message to the council
ho set out the provisions of the city charter ,
showing that the legislative body of cities
ot the metropolitan .class had no authority
to make appointments and that in doing to
all of the memberstwho voted for the adop
tion of the resolution acted in direct viola
tion of the law. iThls veto was rejected
and Mr. Rheem..assumcd the duties of the
ofilce.
At the last meeting of the city council
Rheem's claim for services during the month
of May. aggregating $108.55 , was one of
the Items on the appropriation sheet and
was allowed , though It has slnco been
vetoed by the mayor.

payer and In his own behalf , Instituted
suit against the clty.srestralnlng the signing ,
delivery and payment-of the Rheem warrant ,
alleging In his application for an injunction
that In the appointment of Rheem the city
council was usurping powers which were
absolute in the < executive. After reading
the petition /.finger Walton granted a tem
porary restraining , order , setting the ca'sa
for hearing on June. 13 , at which tlmo testi
mony showing Just how the appointment
was made will bo introduced.
