An arrangement was made Friday nlghl
which assures an , Interesting flght for the
republican nomination for councilman from
the Third ward , Sol Prlnco and Cap O'Mal-
ley have been jockeying for the start for
some time , but owing to the fact that the
voting places were not located to suit him
I'rlnco announced his Intention to allow
his competitor to carry the primaries by
default , and then beat him at the polls
Now , however , a written contract has been
drawn up and signed by tbo two candidates.
I'rlnco has conceded his point In regard
to the location of the polling places , and
ho lu turn binds himself to abldo by the
result of the primaries. So the flght Is on
and Is becoming Interesting.
In thu Eighth ward thu flght Is narrowing
down to n straightaway between Cadet Tay
lor and T. S , Crocker. Taylor Is said to
huvo tccureil the support of some corporate
Influences lhat count for a good many votes
In the ward , but the bulk of the hardest
workers nro lined up with Crocker , It IK
the general Impression that the contest will
bo clofeo enough to keep both candidates on
the anxious teat , but Crocker's friends In
blst thai If a full vote can be brought out
they will win.

ter , and the stone In thought to bo one of
n number which were taken from a jewelry
store in Denver several months ago. The
pawnbrokers staled to the police that the
saino stone found upon Woodward was pre
sented to them for sale by no less than
lireo different parties. They .refused to
lurchaso II , being suspicious of Its rightful
owneiMhlp nnd disliking to trade with the
needy persona who attempted the sale ,
Woodward maintains he found the stone ,

"One can go Into a freight office almos
Any time nowadays and be fairly sure o
hearing of a new change In tariff on some
class of commodities , " said a general frclgh
agent of a prominent Omaha railroad yes
tcrclay morning.
The many changes th'at have been
recorded within the past few month
certainly licar out his statement , and th
prcfipcct Is that the end la not yet. Th
most Important of the recent changes Is a
reduction In coal rates from Chicago t
Missouri river points. Friday afternoo
the Hock Island , the Milwaukee and th
Uurllngtoa roads announced a reduction o
Jl a ton In coal rates from Chicago t
Omaha. The reduction Is effective October 1
end the prospects arc bright that bcfor
that time the other Chicago-Omaha road
will have fallen into line. The frclgh
officials of these three roads were busy yes
tcrday morning sending out word to all th
coal dealers that such a reduction had bee
made and were all hustllnc for trade at th
new figure.
For some time coal rates from Chlcag
and all lake points have been matntnlnc
at J3 a ton. The reduction brings down th
cost of transportation to { 2. As th
Western Freight association Is practical !
disrupted , the railroads arc acting Indcpcnil
ently In this matter , and each road 1
making the announcement of the rcductlo
separately. While no otllclnl notice of th
reduction has been received at the North
western office It Is expected at any time
General Agent Ritchie went Into the Ch
cage headquarters Friday evening , and wl !
return today. The matter , so far as th
Northwestern Is concerned , will probibl
be decided while he Is at headquarters.
The various coal dealers of the city tak
different views of the reduction and Ito
probable effect upon the local market. On
prominent dealer said : "I am ot the opln
Ion that the price will not go down on Octo
her 1 , notwithstanding the reduction In rail
road rates. Coal costs us J5.CO a ton I
Chicago. The rate to Omaha has been $3
which brings the cost up to J8.60. No\
add 63 cents more for the cost of puttln
It Into our yards and other expense and you
hare as the actual cost $9.25 a ton. W
have been selling coal at $9.75 , which leave
us a margin of 50 cents a ton. Every busl
ness man knows that this Is Insufficient t
pay the office expenses , much less ylolc
any profit. With the reduction of $1 In rail
road rates we are left a margin of $1.50
We feel that we cannot make any reduction
but will rather endeavor to reimburse our
selves for the losses recently sustained. "
This view , so gloomy to the householde
who Is looking forward to the filling of hi
coal bin for the coming winter , 1
not general , however , among the loca
coal dealers. McEachron Bros yes
tcrday morning announced a rate
of $ D a ton , the coal to be delivered
on October 1 , when the railroad reduction
becomes effective. Several other firms fol
lowed the movement , and the reduction was
general before the close ot the day. As the
railroads have made a cut of $1 and the
coal dealers have dropped down In thel
prices only 75 cents , the latter class are
better by this reduction 23 cents for cverj
ton they fell.

After several months of summer dullncs
the members ot the local passenger assocl
atlon arc again excited at the prospect o
I he trial of a case that promises to b
sufficiently sensational to awaken Interes
among even the most steady-going tlcke
sellers. The case will be brought by th
passenger department of the Union I'acifl
against the same department of the B. & M
The trial was set for yesterday afternoon a
1:30 : o'clock , but at the request of the de
fcndants the case has been postponed untl
Monday afternoon next at 2:30 : o'clock. Clr
culars announcing a special meeting for
the hearing of the case were sent out among
the "low Joints" yesterday morning.
It Is alleged In the charge that two tick
els from Omaha to San Francisco reading
"via the Burlington route" were Frlda )
afternoon purchased In the office of a loca
ticket broker for $3'J. or ? 1 less than thi
regular rate between these points. The coun
contains two separate complaints. First
cutting the rate , and secondly , dealing will
brokers. The case comes under the Juris
diction of the Transcontinental Passenger
association , the business being strictly trans
continental. Several of the passenger men
yesterday morning were of the opinion that
the new prosecutors recently appointed bj
Chairman Caldwcll of the Western Passen
ger association would bo present on Mon
day and would then have an opportunlt )
to try their first case. They will not be
here , however , as the case Is not within
the jurisdiction of that association.

John LInquest , a young fanner from Oak
land. Neb. , Is the latest victim to the gant ,
of "con" men who appear to be persistently
working the city of late. Linquest hab
been visiting some .relatives In Iowa for
a short period nnd. jesterday arrived In
Omaha while en route home. He was
obliged to remain at the AVebstec strcc
depot for several hours , and was accostet
by a very agreeable stranger. Ho describes
the man as being about six feet In heigh
and nicely dressed. He also had black
whiskers which partially concealed a cheer
ful smile which It transpires Is the rogue's
chief stock In trade. The train was not due
for nearly an hour and the new-found frlcm
proposed walking Into the city for a shor
distance. The proposition was accepted am

TAX LIST CASE STILL OPEN
County CommiEsionors Are as Much at Sea
as Ever.
COURT HOLDS THE ACT IS MANDATORY
Point n to the Constitutionality of
the IanItFiptlrliiR Iiinrrtlon
In ( irrtnnn \ MTH | > II-
, pcrN Left Open ,
The matter ot the advertisement of the
delinquent tax list Is In a worse muddle
than ever , and the county commissioners arc
alt at sea as to their duty In the premises.
This all comes about by reason of the devel
opments In Judge Keysor's court yesterday
morning. The proceedings were ex partc and
the opinion delivered by the court Is not
binding , being rather In the nature of
advice to the commissioners as to their
duty under the law as construed by the
court.
The whole milter originated with art ap
plication by the Pokrok 7. a pad u for a writ
of mandamus compelling the commissioner )
to order the tax list printed In that paper.
The court found that the law on which the
application was based' was unconstitutional
so far as It related to Swedish and Bohemian
papers , but was constitutional as regarding
German papers having a circulation of 1.500
or more. The court was then asked to pass
upon the points raised by the county at
torney , that the act was simply directory
and not mandatory , and also that the
circulation of 1,500 required by the act
should be construed to mean that the clrcu
latlon must be la Douglas county.
In giving his opinion on these points yester
day morning Judge Keysor said he had not
had time to give the matter the attention tt
required. He said , very positively , that he
would not be bound by the opinion he might
express , as the questions under consideration
related solely to German papers and had not
been raised In the case of the Pokrok Zapadu
and the whole proceeding was ex parte.
He passed first upon the question of circula
tion , holding that It was not the intent ot
the law that the circulation should be In
Douglas county , as there was nothing to
that effect In the statute In question and
there was nothing by which It could be con
nected with the statute relating to English
papers which required a certain circulation
In the county.
Taking up the question of whether the act
was mandatory , the court quoted from sev
eral authorities , tending to show that the
fact that an act was passed was evidence
that It was intended to be enforced , and
then ho called attention to the language
of the act Itself. providing that
the county commissioners "shall" do
certain things. The court held
that the act was mandatory upon the com
missioners , although he expressed the
opinion that a failure on the part of the
commissioners lo comply with Its provi
sions would not Invalidate any tax sale or
tax deed. This latter fact , the court said
would not form any good ground for a re
fusal on the part ot the commissioners tc
comply with the law. and he found that the
law was mandatory and that It was obllga
lory upon the board to enforce It.
Assistant County Attorney Day then
asked the court If tt had considered the
point that the act In question Included two
subjects nnd was therefore unconstitutional.
Going Into detail , Mr. Day called tbe at
tention ot the court to the foot that the act
required Inc. county commissioners to
designate & paper In which the tax list
should bo published , and nlso provided that
the list should be furnished to such paper ,
whereas another section ot the statute *
made It the duty of the county treasurer lo
prepare and publish the tax list , therefore
the Act In controversy related to certain
duties of the county commissioners and also
to certain duties of the treasurer , being two
distinct subjects In one act.
Judge. Kcyeor ald ho had not considered
this feature of the case. This left the mat
ter asi much unsettled as before. The court
said , practically , that the law was man
datory If It was constitutional , and left the
question ot Its constitutionality open.
The publisher of the German Tribune
tried to reach an agreement with the com
missioners , but some of the commissioners
were not present and no agreement was
reached. The publisher then remarked that
he would not agree to print the tax list at
the contract price of the official paper un
less he was given the Jnli al once , as any
delay would subject him to large additional
expense aid ho would charge the full legal
rate , which Is several times as great as the
contract price.
The county commissioners held a con
ference with the publisher of the German
Tribune yesterday afternoon and It was
agreed that the question ot the constitu
tionality ot the law ( should be submitted to
Judge Keyscr on argument Monday morning
and the decision of the court should govern
as to the publishing of the tax list In the
German paper. Before this was done , how
ever , the publisher filed a written agree
ment to charge the price provided In the
contract with The Bee and not take ad
vantage of the law by charging full rates ,
the commissioners Insisted thai unless this
was done Ihey would stand on their rights
and cause a delay which would make It
Impossible to have the matter adjudicated In
time to allow the list to be published at
the lime- fixed by law.
