Union I'liolllo.
A committee of the newly formed Union
Depot league , con&tatlng of J. H. Dumont ,
Mayor Hroatch , Lyinan Richardson , Dr
George L. Miller , A. L Reed , Judge Doane
A. Horpo , and G M. Hitchcock , met in the
Commercial olub loouui jotlcrday afternoon
to formulate plans for yociirlng the erection
of n now depot. The gi cater portion of
the time was occupied In an Informal dis
cussion nnd consisted laigcly of the recital
of nn Interview which Dr. Miller had with
Ptesldont nnd Receiver S. H. II. Clark of
the Union Paclllc. Mr. Clark , so the doctor
.stated , had expressed himself willing and
anxious to do all In his power toward the
erection of n union depot ut the foot of
Farnam street. In doing HO ho was of the
opinion that ho voiced the sentiments of all
the ottlclals of his rond. The fact , however
that the road was In receivers' handy
and would probably eventually bo foreclosed ,
prevented nny action being taken at the
present time. The unsettled condition of the
road's Hnanccs mndo It nn lmpost > lblllt } for
the lecctvers to promise an > thing , nltltough
It was probable that the road might enter
Into a union depot compact with others If
forced to do so , on account of self Intcrsts.
Sir. Hltchco-k was of the opinion tlmt
the Durlington meant business In Its late
announcement to build nt Tenth and Pacific
streets , and he had been Informed that
either of two plans under advisement by
the ofllclals of the road would bo adopted
In the near future. The tlrst plan contem
plated the building of u Joint depot for the
Rock Island , Burlington and SHlwaukco and
would cost appioxlmately $350,000. The
second scheme was for a station for the
Huiltngton's urcs alone , the cost of which
would bo eonsiaoinbly less than the first
named structure. He thought It. Improbable
that the Union Pacific would finish the old
building as ho was. Informed that the yard
room of the company would bo Inadequate to
the transaction of even Its own business , ex
clusive of other roads which might wish
to use the same depot.
Upon motion of Mr. Hitchcock , Judge
Doano vva > elected permanent chairman of
the committed with A. L. Reed as secietaty
Upon a second motion of Sir. Hitchcock It
was decided to wait upon President Clark
nnd Receiver Oliver W Slink of the Union
Pacific and get a definite Idea no to whrtl
the road proposed to do 01 could do in con
nection with the- depot matter. The > would

The first meeting of the newly elected < 1I-
rcctor of the Transmlsslsslppl nnd Interna
tional Exposition association was held nt the
Commercial club rooms jesterday afternoon
Of the forty-nine members elected by the
stockholders last Tuesday night , forty-three
were present , the other members being out
of the city. The meeting was characterized
by a disposition to proceed with the grcntest
caution In order that the success of the ex
position might not be Jeopardized In the
slightest degree by an unwise step. There
was apparent n healthy amount of enthu
siasm , which was manifested several times ,
but there waa nothing of nn effervescent
nature In the sentiment which developed.
The meeting was called to order by Pusl-
dcnt G. W. Wattles of the old board of
directors , nnd ex-Governor Alvln Salimlers
was chosen temporniy chairman and John
A. Wakeflold temporary secretary.
The fact that but forty-nine directors had
been elected by the stockholders , Instead of
fifty , as provided In the articles of Incor
poration , was the first subject for discus
sion. The consensus of opinion was to the
effect that. It was a vital point whether the
board could legally organize with less than
fifty directors , or whether the forty-nlno
elected by the stockholders bad the power to
elect the fiftieth man , or whether Sir. Hcn-
nctt , by virtue of the fact that he Is a mem
ber of the old board , would
hold over ami be a member
of the new board of directors. These
phasca of the question were debated nt gieat
length nnd the whole matter was finally re
ferred to n committee , consisting of SIcssrs.
C. S. Slontgomery , J. C. Wharton and J. L
Webster , to investigate all the questions In
volved and report to the board at KB next
meeting.
During this discussion a communication was
presented from W. It. Dennett , In which he
tendered his resignation as a director of the
exposition. This was laid on the table until
the report of the committee referred to above
Is received. The same action was taken with
reference to n communication from organised ,
labor , presented by I. W. Carpenter , one of
the directors. This communication was
signed by T. F. Sturgcss , president of the
Typographical union , nnd asked that , In case
of n vacancy In the boaid of directors , a rep
resentative of organized labor bo elected
to till the vacancy.
J. C. Wharton called attention of the
board to the fact that a great deal of dlftut-
Isfactlon existed among the members ef the
labor unions on account of the fact that
they had not been given representation on
the board of directors , and he Introduced a
resolution , providing that In case of n vn-
cancy occurring In the board of directors the
labor unions of Omaha and South Omaha be
requested to select and present to the board
of directors the names of three men repre
senting organized labor , and providing , fur
ther , that the nameso presented ehould
receive the consideration of the board In
the election of a director to fill vacancy. This
resolution was unanimously adopted.
In view of the complications existing re
garding the legal organization of tbo board
on account of the failure to elect a full
board of fifty directors , It was decided to
postpone the election of officers until the ne.xt
meeting.
E , Rohcwatcr euggcsted that , In order that
the work of the board might bo expedited as
much as possible , a committee should bo ap
pointed to recommend a plan of organization
and work nnd present the tame to the board
at Its next meeting , nnd bo moved the ap
pointment of such a commlttca. The Idcu
met with favor and the motion wns adopted.
The chair appointed Slessrs. E. Roscwatcr , C.
F. Slanderein , Frank Murphy , Dudley Smith
and G W. Wattles aa such committee.
The meeting was adjourneil until next Tues
day afternoon at 2 o'clock at the rooms of
the Commercial club.

At Its hst sitting the supreme court made
a ruling In a case appealed from Douglas
county which completely overturns a prac
tice which has obtained in this county to a
greater or less extent for several years , re
garding the tlmo within which a bill of ex
ceptions may be filed. Under the rule an
appellant Is allowed forty da > from the
end of the term of the district court at
which a cafe Is tried In which to file his bill
of exceptions with the supreme court. At
the expiration of this time the appellant may
make a proper showing and secure an addi

take Ktlll further time by making a showing
that the reporter has been unable to prepare

tice has obtained since the ruling of the
supreme court in the cato of Richards against

which the court held that a paity could not

Small AtlcnilnniMvnt ( lit * Mooting or
tlir CoimoU Committee.
The city council 'charter amendment com
mittee held another meeting of n couple of
hours' duration yrattnlny afternoon In the
council chamber. TUn smallest crowd thnt
has > ct attended the meetings was on hand
It comprised Counollmcn Taylor , Sntindcrs ,
Allan nnd Hnscall , Senator-elect Ed Howell ,
Representatives-elect Cox of South Omaha
nnd John Ilntlcr , Dr. Bavllle , City Attorney
Council nnd John Strcle.
The problem regarding repaying vvns
brought up first by Hnscall , who offered
an amendment giving the city council the
power to order streets repnvcd without n
petition front property owners , and provid
ing that in mich cases the city should pay
one-fifth of the coat , the remainder to be
assessed against the property In the district
At present repavlng can bo done only on
petition of the owners of property abutting
on the street nnd the entire cost Is assessed
upon the district In which the street Is
located The amendment failed of adoption
The tax levy and Its distribution among
the various city departments vvns left to n
committee consisting of the city attorney
ami Councilman Wheeler after some discus
sion. The same action was taken on an
amendment proposed by Hascall , providing
that tbo limit to the sinking fund levy
should bo tnken away The present charter
provides that the sinking fund for the pay
ment of bonded Indebtedness and Interest
should consist of 1 per cent of the levy.
Hascall and Wheeler maintained that the
amount accruing from this apportionment
was Insufilclcnt to meet the demands ,
thereby Impairing the credit of the city.
Council opposed the amendment because he
said It would raise n "howl" from taxpajcrs.
While the matter of taxes was up City
Attorney Council advanced an amendment
to the state revenue law , authorizing the
city to assess taxes ngalnst the propel ty of
railroads and other corporations within the
city limits for municipal purposes. Tills
csscEsment by the city Is to be taken out
of the assessment levied ngalnst railroad
property by the state. The city attorney
maintained that Inasmuch as the railroads
nnd other similar corporations enjoy the
police and fire protection and Improvements
of the city. It was only Justice that the city
should tax them. The city attorney will
draw up an amendment cmbod > lng this.
An amendment changing the rate of In-
tcrcat on delinquent taxes from 12 tn 10 per
cent a year , payable monthly In advance ,
was ndopttd.
In this connection City Attorney Connell
presented an amendment , which provided
that delinquent taxes should constitute n
permanent Hen upon personal property from
the date thu tax was levied , the Hen to bo
prior to any mortgage or sale entered Into
thereafter unless In the ordinary course of
trade ; and further , that the city treasurer
should be authorized to attach such prop
erty when he had reason to believe that any
attempt was being made to avoid the tax
This nmcndmcnt was practically adopted
and l to be drawn up by the city attorney.
A motion to adjourn was sprung but Hcs-
call Interjected the Board of Public Worka
matter. He desired that an nmcndmcnt be
passed , abolishing the body and vesting Its
power In a board consisting of the mayor ,
the president of the council and the city
figlneer. This failed to meet the approval
of How ells , whose scheme piovldcd for n
board of the heads of the seven depart
ments of the city. Itivas finally decided to
lay the matter over until next Slonday
night nt 7 30 o'clock , when It Is to be the
order or bvslness.

You remember the tempting notice which the dealer
placed over his 37-cent bhlrta : "THEY WONT LAST
