The Investigations of Councilman Kennard ,
relative to the Insurance on the clly hall ,
hug developed a peculiar condition of offalm.
Tlu original resolution by which the In-
suiance was ordered provided that the buildIng -
Ing should he Insured for SO per cent of lie
value. As th ? building cost approximately
$30U,000 , this would Indicate that the aggre
gate face valus of the policies would be ? 400-
000 , Ths combine by which the Insurance
deal wag manipulated , proceeded to take out
a little less than $200,000 Insurance on the
building. Hut the 80 per cent clause wan
Inseittd In all the policies and the city paid
premiums accordingly. The rt > ult was that
while the clly has been paying for Insur
ance at the SO per cent rate , It has In reality
been carrying only 40 per cent , and has been
piactlcally taking tno other halt of the risk
Itsilf , The ilgures produced by Mr , Ken
nard produced a great deal of stir among the
Insurance members of the council and .at .
their request action was postponed for an
other week.

Edwards and Friends Puzzled Over thai

Ihe lloiiil Stntiitc 1)1111-
It Is understood that A. Q. Edwards ani
his friends have veered Into a new tack or
the city treasurer question. My this actlor
they hope to steer clear of n fight In thi
courts with doubtful prospects of success ntu
succeed In establishing Edwards In office
without Invoking the old of any higher ln >
strumentallty than the ninyor nml council
of Oinnha. This has no reference to the
present administration , but the remit IE
looked for through the aid of the Droatch
regime , \vhlch will assume control of city
affairs on January 7.
The prospective policy of the treasurer-
elect Is Indicated by the fact that the man
damus proceedings which had been previ
ously arranged for have been allowed to
rest and the- members of the combine are
apparently proceeding on the assumption that
they will have the game In their own hands
by simply waiting until the gang comes Into
full control , backed by a mayor who Is ready
to lend his official authority to the further
ance of Its schemes.
GAME OP 1JLUFF.
There Is every Indication that the members
of the combine were thoroughly Informed as
to the fact that the council had no right to
review the action of the mayor In refusing to
approve Edwards' bond , but hoped to bulldoze
the matter through In a round nboiit way.
In addition to the usual action of approving
the bond , the majority In the council passed
a concurrent resolution In which the ap
proval of the document was again declared.
Hut the mayor also had his eyes open and
refrained from recognizing the right of re
view of the council by vetoing cither the
resolution or the bond. Instead he re
turned a communication In which ho simply
gave the reasons why he had not approved
the bond , and another communication In
which ho Informed the council that the ap-
pioval of the bond was not a proper subject
for n concurrent resolution under the pro
visions of section 127 of the charter , and for
the further reason that he had not approved
the bond referred to therein.
While the council assumed to regard these
documents as vetoes and proceeded to enact
the farce of approving the bond and passing
the resolution over the allegsd vetoes , Its
members ara not altogether easy In their
minds as to the probable result. Anxious to
avoid an appeal to the courts If possible , they
have determined that the easiest \\ay out of
the difficulty Is to wait until Broatch Is
mayor , then hove him sign the bond as his
first official act and thus allow Edwards to
: ake possession of the treasurer's office within
a few hours after the mayor Is Installed.
This scheme Introduced one or two nddl-
ilcnal legal complications which are likely
to effectually block the plans of the combine.
Section 5 of chapter xx of the Compiled Stat
utes says :
"Official bonds , with the oath endorsed
thorcou , shall bo filed at the proper offics
within the times as follows : Of all officers
elected at any general election on or before
; he first Thursday after the first Tuesday In
January next tnicceedlng the election ; of all
appointed officers within thirty days after
their appointment ; of oIDcsrs elected at any
special election , and city and village officers ,
within thirty days utter the canvass of the
votes of the election a ( which they were
chosen. "
WOULD WAIT FOR BROATCII.
Basing Ills claim'en the. last clause of this
section , Edwards takes the position that the
matter of the approval of his bond can be
allowed to rest until after the new adminis
tration Is Installed. The canvass of the voter
was completed on the evening of Tuesday.
November 12. Consequently ho had until
midnight last night to file his bond. The bond
was approved by the council Tuesday night ,
and , regsrdless of the fact that It did not
) ear the signature of the executive officer of
ho city. It was filed with the cty ! clerk and
at midnight on the same evening Edwards
, ook the oath of office In the private office of
City Clerk Hlgby.
But there is a subsequent section In the
nine chapter of the statutes which Is cal-
ulatcd to materially conflict with the plans
of the combine. This Is section 11 , which
ays :
"The approval of each official bond bhall b3
ndorsed upon such bond by the officer ap-
irovlng the same , and no bond shall be filed
or recorded until so approved. "
This section distinctly declares that the
bond cannot be legally filed until after it
ms received the signature of the * officer
authorized to endorse It , which In this In-
tance Is clearly the mayor. This being the
aso , the policy of the combine If followed
out , Is not unlikely to raise th& question
whether or not Edwards has not entirely
ailed to qualify within the period preserved
> y law and thus lost his title to the office.
'he law provides that the present treasurer
vould hold over until such time as the
office was filled by a special election , < he
Mllng of which would bo discretionary with
he mayor and council.
Edwards himself refuses to disclose his
plans of procedure further than to remark
hat 'there Is no necessity for taking any
cgnl action. He says that ho will proceed
according to legal advice , but In what dlrec-
lon that advice IB likely to lead him ho Is
not wllllim to say.

Judge Dundy'g court .was crowded yester
day , standing room even being at n pre
mium. The attraction was the case of the
government against Helix Murray , a railway
postal clerk , charged'with stealing the con
tents of divers letters .which passed through
his hand ? .
Murray was arrested' ' at his home In Mis
souri Vollfy some , months ago and brought to
this city. He was arraigned before United
States Commissioner .E _ S. Dundy , Jr. , who
bound him over In the sum of $1,000. C. V.
Gallagher went security and he was releassd.
According to the testimony of Postofllcc Inspector
specter Sinclair , who worked up the case , a
trivial clrcumstanc ? afforded the first clew to
Indicate to the mind of the Inspector that
Murray wa < stealing the Nebraska relief let
ters going to C. C. I'ond nt Ewlng. Decoy
letters were mailed from this city to Pond ,
arranged so ns to catch Murray's run. Thi
letters failed to reach their destination. Mur
ray was ordered under arrest and ho was
taken while asleep 'n ' his bunk In his car. A
thorough search was made and CO cents of
the marked money was found In his pocketbook -
book and n $5 bill In a paper sack , hidden
under Ms cot.
In Its opening statement the defense staled
that It would not only prove that Murray
was not guilty of theft , but that the charg.'s
against him were made through a conspiracy
to ruin hlnl and secure his discharge. It
was stated that shortly before hlo arrest
Murray had secured a promotion which an
other party desired. It was affirmed that
Inspectors Sinclair and Deebe were In the
cot.tplracy and the party who secured the
position that Murray lost Is nn Intimate
friend of Inspector Sinclair. His name Is
Gannon.

"I don't give a d n whether I get a new-
trial or not. "
This remark was made by George Morgan
this morning to one of his Jailers and It Indi
cates his apparent feeling and behavior when
ever the Jailers visit his cell. He remains
as Indlffeient an ever , but does not appar
ently care to talk about his case. When
ever the guards are about he whistles and
appears to bo In good spirits. It Is ths
opinion of some of the other prisoners In
the jail , however , that this Indifference Is
entirely assumed.
"He won't be very cool when he gets on
the gallows , " said one of them this morning.
"It's all put on now and It will be all gone
when he goes to the scaffold. They tell
me that when he went Into Ihe court room
during lily trial he was remarkably cool and
collected. He's that way now when the
Jallera are around , 'but It's different when
they ar2 > not , and It was different all the
tlmo he was In the Jail. He was always
nervoui and ho is nervous now when he Is
alone with the prisoners. "
However that may be , Morgan apparently
keeps his nerve and Is entirely unconcerned.
The only thing that appears to bother him
now Is the fact that he has neither pip ? ,
smoking or chewing tobacco.

The very short visit of Harvey L. Barnes
and William Foster , the two bnnk swindlers
who were In Omaha only two days last Sep
tember before they were landed In Jail , fur
nished the bnsls for considerable legal con
troversy. This Is duo to the fact that when
they left the city they left behind some
$1,300 , besides watches and jewelry , for
which ihcre are- several clalmanls.
A couple of days after the two swindlers
arrived In Omalm they attempted to work
their game at one of the banks. This con
sisted of checking agalnsl a. deposit which
had been made the day before , but which In
the menntlme had already bEen all drawn out.
The check that they presented In this In
stance wns for something like $700 , when In
reality they did not have $70 In the bank.
The paying leller was foxy , however , and as
a result the two men soon found themselves
In jail.
As soon as the men were arresied Iholr
descrlpllon and the manner of their game
were wired to the principal cities of the
country. A number of answers were re
ceived , among them one from Kansas
Clly and another from Milwaukee. In the
former city the two men had swindled the
Union Nallonal bank oul of belwc3n $600
and $700 and In the latler place Iho Flrsl
National bank had been worked for about
the 1x1111 ? amount.
At Ihe time of their arrest there were found
on the persons of lh men nboul $300 and
some watches and Jewelry and It was later
discovered that they had a deposit of $1,000
In the First National bank. This reachei
the ears of lawyers and In a short tlmo th
prisoners had all kinds of legal Inlenl ofterc
Ihem. They picked oul Ihe attorneys the
wanted and Ihen spent their money Ilk
princes to get out of jail. Habeas corpus one
other proceedings were brought , but they
availed naught and In a few days the me ;
were tBKen to Kansas City for trial.
Before going the prisoners gave Attornej
DeBord n check for $1,000 on Ihelr deposit In
the First National bank. When an effort wa
made to cash the check It was found tha
garnishment proceedings had been brought by
the Kanius Clly and Iho Milwaukee banks to
get posseFslon of the money In order thai they
might bo recompensed for the amount the ;
had been swindled out of. An effort was then
made to replevin the $300 and the watches
left with the police , but again Ihe banks
stepped In , as Ihere was nol enough In Ihe
deposit In the bank to satisfy Ihelr claims.
As a result of this entanglement all the
money that Barnes and Foster brought to the
city was turned over to the county judge to
bo distributed as might be thought proper
A number of suits were brought and the
wheels of justice were started , but they die
not get Into full relation until yesterday.
