The first step In the twosccXitlon of the case ,
/ in thu feclerol court against thu South Omaha
c Llvo Stock exchatiKc , In which the latter U
attacked by thu govcixuncni on the grounds
that It fxUta In violation of the Sherman
iintl-trim CM , la about to be taken.
United Stated District Attorney A. J. Saw
yer and John T. Gathers , nAio represent the
State * ol America , have served notice
that they will B'VO ' tcstlmrny In the case be
fore Attorney John \V. liatt'a , examiner In
chancery of the Uciltcil States district court ,
on Thursday , January 13. The hcuflng will 1
take place In the federal court building. The I
attorneys for -tho live stock exchange have
been notified to bo prtuent. at that time.
This will bo the first active proceeding
takim In jhe caee up to the present time ,
the llllns of the complaint by th - govern
ment and of Its answer by the exchange be-
leg the only steps In the case so far. All
the evidence will to given before the exr
amlner In chancery and by deposition. This
evidence will be submitted to Judge Munger
nnd upon It and arguments by the at
torneys ho will render hla dcH'ioa , There
Is a probability that several sittings will be
required to Introduce all the ttbtlimny. At
next Thursday's the government will be tha
only party to give evidence. Inasmuch as the
attoraejs for the exchange do not be leve
they will bo ready to Introduce a y of their
testimony , 1ic ! latter will , therefore , want
another clttlng , and probably more than cno ,
and It Is doubtful alsvblether > the district
attorney will flnteh at one sitting.
Thp case Is a very Important one and has
been given considerable publicity. In brief
the government is ecektug to dissolve the
exchange oil the grounds that it U a
monopoly or trust. A similar case was lately
In the federal court at Kansas City , attackIng -
Ing the exchange of that city , and It was
decided In favor of the government. It Is
stated , I'owover , that/th ? formarions of the
two exchanges are somewhat different and
that consequently new questions will be
rahed.
On Friday , January 14 , It will be settled' '
ivhether or not an extra and 8prlnl Besslon
of the federal ocurt will be held In this city ]
before the regular May term. On that date ,
Judge iMungcr will call the law -docket furj
the purpose of finding out If there will be' '
enough cases ready for trial to warrant an
other term. Consequently Judge Munger re
quests all -attorneys Interested In law cai.cH
In the court to bo present at the call on the
mornliig of that date ,
Judgn Munger IT , willing to hold a special
term for 'tho reason that the law docket IB
qulio hf ivlly burdened and ho wlahcs to get
eomo of the ca eo dlspsed of. In nury of
Uo cases Omaha attoincja- representing
the parties and they naturally with t > have
the cases tried here. JudgeMuneer ' de-
slroM of accommodating them by holding
-'ho special session In this city If enough
work U promised to warrant It. The extra
term would probably commence In the first
part of 'March. ' The present term must cud
next week , betutiBO th ! Jotiuary term at I.ln-
c In begins on Monday of uo following week ,
The lat cr term will liisj until -he end of
Kebiuary. Tlicro ! s i it liJtorval of about a
muuli and a half bu ftathe end of this
term nnd the beglnnlty ; of ' the Hastings term ,
which commences on , the -third 'Monday ' In
April , and In this hr.crlin tie special term
u.u bo eandwlevied In , According to ( ho
echcdulo Judge 'Munsur ' will hold court for a
week In April at Hastings , and during the
following week at Norfolk and then the May
term commences In < bls city on tbo first
Monday of tr.ct men h. '
Dan Deer and Jesap Crow were arraigned
before Judge Munger for polling liquor to In
dians on the Wlnncbago agenpy and pleaded
guilty , They uero fined $100 and costs , and
were sentenced to sixty days' Imprisonment ,
but both were let off with a fifteen-day Jail
sentence. This mc&y wai uhown because of
the fact that they litvo already served forty-
seven days In jail. The ) * were arrested before -
fore the grand jury eat In Lincoln , and were
In Jail that length of tmt before en Indict
ment was returned , bccaune they could not
furnish bondd. After they were held for
trial they were released on tbelr own recog
nizance.

Xotwltlistandlng the fact that the tern
ptrature has been above the freezing for
the greater part of each day for nearly a
week , tl.o lee on thu lagoon at the exposition
grounds has not thawed In the least , but
has continued to retain a hard , smooth sur
face. Skating has been excellent every night ,
but the Ice has been poorly patronized > bo-
cauBa the people took It for granted that It
would be eoft and unfit for skating. The
depression of the surface of iho
lagoon below the level of the sur
rounding ground has prevented the
warm air from circulating on the Ice
aul the result if that the delights of skating
have been att > ilr. > iblc without the dlidgrce-
able- features caused by low temperature
IMndcw are being spread on the ground to
form paths from the entrances to the ground
to the Ice and about the sides of tha lagoon.
The incnagement Is also malting a number
of changcb In the arrangcmcat of tbo warmIng -

partition Is being put In which will make a

necessary appliances lor their comfort will
