assert that the rents charged by * the stock
yards compiny aic exorbitant and that tie !
compiny will not rcit nn olllco unless a five

Yesterday Mayor En-sor sent n letter to
Inspector Carroll Instructing him to at
once close the Homo Ranch baleen on N
street During the afternoon the Inspector
visited the place and carried out the ordeis
of the executive. In his letter the mayor
liibtructed Can oil to obey the orders given
regardless ot what members of the city
council might dcolre. Thcic has been con
siderable trouble icgnrdlng this baleen , but
It Is thought now that the matter has been
settled The Homo Ranch people started
up last fall and filed an application foi a
license The first bond was not satisfactory
and It wra sent back for correction Then
the application for a license was wlthliawn
but the saloon kept running Just the same
About tin co months ago the attention of
the Board of Education was called to the
fact that the saloon wns running without a
license and the pioprletor then paid Into
the city treasury the sum of $ JOO. As no
llccnso could be Issued for such a sum the
matter was brought up In the council two
or three times nnd the chief of police was
Instructed to clo o the place unless the
full amount was paid Still nothing was done
nnd the mayor becoming tired of fie delay
took the matter out of the hands of the li
cense committee and closed the resort.

The city council has a perplexing ques
tion to decide In relation to the request o :
the Louis Bradford Lumber company foi
I ernilsslon to construct a railroad track
acioai llcllevue avenue1. At the last meet
ing of the body the formal icrjucst for tnc
track along with a map nnd petition from
pioperty owners In that \iclnlty was read
llhoio who blgncd the petition were D Mer
rill , Crosby & . Rich , Charles Wofoer , Hart &
Jones and N. F Sage All of the blgneu
are doing buslncs" In the immediate K-lnlty
of the proposed switch and they urge the
council to add to the indui tries ot the city
by granting the iciuest. Considerable op-
pobltlon to this track has sprung up within
the last day or two , ' onie of the merchants
appearing to think that farmers coming up
from the south will take the Thli-tcenth
street read and go right on to Omaha In
ptefcrenco to crow Ini ; a railroad track nt
grade ,
Mayor Enscr Is heartily In favor cf grant
ing the request of the luntbor company
Ho thinks the city will be benefited by the
acquisition of such an enterprise and Is of
thn opinion that the council ought to think
twice ibeforo driving I'oiiblncss concerns away
from the city. TJio track acrcvs the street
will nit 'bo ' ufced a great deal , so it Is
claimed , and all possible ( linger can be
avcrtel by compelling train crews to flag
the trains acicss , as li done at other cross-
In GC.

Some of the delegates to the Slock Grow
ers' convention at Denver returned last
evening and the remaining ones are ex
peeled In this morning. Everyone seemed
to bo well pleased with the trip and the
results of the three days' stay In the me
tropollo of Colorado.
W. J. C. Ketiyon , manager of the Union
Stock yards , seemed to give expression to
the feelings of a majority ot the returned
delegates when ho said : "As a matter of
business , the results of the convention
could hardly bo classed as of very great
Importance. It wns an Initial meeting , a
meeting for organization and for the ex
change of Ideas regarding stock growing
rather than n meeting for the transaction of
Important business. Everyone had n good
ilmo and the people of Denver were most
lospltable. Oinnlm would Imvo liked to
lave had the next convention , If It had been
the wHh of the delegates that It should
como here , but as Denver had promoted the
enterprise , nnd on that score seemed to
lave some Just claim on the flibt annual
ncotlint , and us the majority of tlio dele
gates thought that It would be the best
ilaco for holding It , everyone was satis-
led to see It go thine , Ihero Is seine illus
ion as to wlnt will bo the effect upon tw
of building up n feeder market at Denver
bellovo that the Denver market will bo
a good thing for Nebraska. Denver , by
iii'iins of rallioad connections , will bo able
o secure cattle that would hardly bo ac-
: esslble lo Omaha. Many of thiMO cattle
vlll bo placed on feed In Nebraska and will
ventually nnd thcli way to tlio South
Omaha market. South Omili.t extends con
gratulations to Denver upon the success of
he convention and will accord Its heaitv
upport and will do everything possible that
nay tend to make the next convention
'qually ' successful "
