liy II In Co in finny.
For two hours yesterday afternoon the
members of the city council who were sit
ting In committee- the whole listened to
protests made by divers In-turestcd parties
against the ordinance by which the East
Omaha Ilrldga nnd Terminal company Is to
be Riven the right of way for railroad tracks
from North Fourteenth street to Ninth and
Davenport streets. After listening to all
< who wlsheil to bo heard , and the number
was quite numerous , the council determined
not to act on the measure until next Mon
day , taking the Intervening time to cin-
slslder the points raised and particularly
some of the legal objections.
There were some two ncore of objectors In
attendance. They represented two different
elements. One of the parties consisted 'of
the property owners upon wh so property
or In whose vicinity the proposed tracks
are to pass. The other lot of objectors were
business men who operate- factories or own
land north of Hurt street , who objected to
the city giving Fourteenth street to the
terminal company , because they assert that
If It was given they would bo deprived of
an outlet and Inlet from and to the city.
Mitilt * tt I'orniul I'l-olent.
This last clement monopolized the at
tention of the greater part of the meet
ing. They were present In force nnd were
represented by Attorney Drome. They made
the following formal protest :
Your petitioners , ICSSCCH nnd owners of renl
cstnte located noith of Hurt street and cast
of Fourteenth street , In the city of Omaha ,
respectfully represo'i1 to "our lintininili ) lody
that Fourteenth street , from Webster street

property situated In the noni ! : of the cit >
described Is rendered ncccsslblj rnd valuable

that for the purposes of the tratlc no Ahi Ing
carried over and upon said street the entire
surface of iald street , as the * nmo Is now

In connection with this protest Attorney
Brome asserted that there Is no street In
Omaha over which more tonnage passes
than North Fourteenth street , giving , as It
does , the only communication from and to
the factories In the north bottoms. Estab
lishing a boulevard upon the street would
largely destroy UH utility. Beyond this ,
however. Attorney Brome pointed out some
legal objections to the passage of the ordi
nance. In the first placehe declared that
the state law absolutely requires that the
company must ascertain and pay damages
to adjoining property before laying the
tracks. Secondly , ho Insisted that the pro
posed ordinance , giving a permanent right
to lay railroad tracks , IB within the mean
ing of the law a franchise. Being such , the
city charter provides that no franchise shall
bo granted or extended before It has been
before the council for two weeks and Is
published In the dally papers ; until an an
nuity shall bo required out of the receipts
of the company and unless the franchise
phall receive the majority of the votes of
the people. Mr. Brome therefore declared
that the passage of the ordinance would be
absolutory Illegal at tlio present time , oven
if the council should decide to cut off Four
teenth street to the damage of the peti
tioners.
City Attorney Conncll said that there
wore two propositions now presented , one
that It Is a desirable thing to give the pro
posed right of way , providing the city and
property owners ore protected , and the
other that the right of way bo not given.
The committee had gone on the former
proposition. If the latter Is adonto.l , then
It would bo nothing more or lew than A
notification to railroad companies that they
are not wanted In Omaha ; that Is , that no
further railroad Improvements are desired.
Ho contended that ho did not look upon the
ordinance as ono granting a franchise , and
therefore that the objections did not bold
against the measure. He said that the mat
ter affects not only the property owners In
the Immediate vicinity , but the whole city ,
uud ho therefore declared himself In favor
! of the ordinance proponed , as. he thought
air Interests were being protected.
I'rniicrt ) ' Owner * ' HtiKKontlon.
ThomnD Swift , ono of the property owners
located In the Immediate track of the pro
posed right of way , Insisted that the com
pany should declare at once what land It
required and not be given a right of way
n block wide. He therefore maintained that
the company should Immediately file a plat
of the propo od tracks , Instead of within
three months after the passage of the ordi
nance.
James Crclghton , another of the property
owners , was In favor of the granting of
the right. Ho declared that the ordinance
proposed to leave ample roadway on Four
teenth street , but If It Is a question of the
street or a railroad ho was In favor of the
latter every time. Ho declared that the
main objections to the ordinance are com
ing from pcoplo who arc Interested In keep
ing all trackage for warehouses to the
north of Burt street. He Insisted that the
Echcmo was not of the speculative order ,
because one of the provisions provided that
the tracks must bo luld within a year.
Finally , ho asserted that the main kick of
the property owners along the right of way
Is the consequence of their desire to get
a big price for their land and a fear that
the road will not strike them.
In answar , Mr. Swift denied that the lat
ter statement of Mr. Crelghton a was true.
Ho said that a railroad company nould not
be compelled to pay an exorbitant price
for property , Inasmuch as It could resort to
condemnation proceedings nnd thus get the
land for Its fair valuation. Ho wanted as
surance that the scheme Is not purely and
slmpry a speculative one.
Slmt tlio Door or Not.
Before any more objections could be made
Mr. Webster , the manager of the East
Omaha Bridge and Terminal company , made
a statement. He declared that the first
question to be settled was whether Four
teenth street should bo given or not. He
said :
To settle that matter means to determine
whether Omaha wants any more railroads or
not , for the reason that Fourteenth street Is
the only Inlet for a road from the north. Do
you want to shut the door or not ? Our road
will neither shut the street nor prevent other
roads to come In. The ordinance gives per-
mlslon to lay only two tracks nnd It pro
vides that these tracltsi shall be open to all
roads forever. After spending as much money
In this city as our company already has and
since wo are preparing to spend half a mil
lion more , I thought that we could get a more
favorable franchise than other companies
have secured. AH a matter of fact , the ordi
nance Is a harsher one. Nevertheless , I am
willing that our company should be Btlll
further bound to meet these objections. In
the first place , I will agree that the tracks ,
barring litigation through Injunction , shall
bo laid , a depot constructed and ono and per
haps two railroads running over the tracks
nnd Into the depot within ono year after thf
passage of the ordinance. Secondly , we > will
agree to buy every lot that Is cut off from
the city by our tracks and lies between them
nnd the tracks on the bottoms. As to the
objection against giving us the use of Four
teenth street , 1 am surprised that no more
signatures have been secured. I have been
aware that Superintendent Jayncs of the
Chicago , MlnneapcllB , St. Paul & Omaha road
has been circulating It for some time nnd
ho told mo himself that wo could not get
Into the tlty by means of Fourteenth street ,
because we could not secure the right of way.
Why was this petition obtained ? Because
the petitioners ore located on Mr. Jaynes'
road. Bcbee & Runyan , the Omaha and Cas
ket company , the Omaha National bank ,
Kountzo , the Omaha Loan and Turst com-
l > any , Orch rd & Wllhelm none of there have
access to Fourteenth str.eot nnd cannot reach
It except across our property. Yet they signed
that petition because they are on the Omaha
K. St. Paiil road , because they would be un-
nblo to secure rebates nnd other favors from
that road If they did not.
Factory Men Kntcr Denial.
This brought some of the East Omaha
manufacturers to their feet. W , Kunynn of
the Becbo & Runyan Furnlturo company
denied that ho had been Influenced by Su
perintendent Jnynes , but Insisted that he
had a personal Interest. While It was true
that hia firm had no means of reaching Four
teenth street except by passing over the
land of the terminal company , ho and others
were trying to secure such an outlet. At
present they were compelled to draw heavily
loaded wagons over many railroad tracks
nnd up a ateep grade to Sherman avenue or
else- through mud over the East Omaha com
pany's land.
M. Wulpl of the Omaha Casket company
alto denied that his firm had been Intimi
dated by Superintendent Jaynes. His fac
tory , too , could not reach Fourteenth street ,
but It has been working for a half dozen
years to secure It. Three times the attempt
had been made to have the street opened
wlthcut success and the manufacturers were
preparing to make another In the near fu
ture. Mr. Wulpl said that ho had always
considered the Terminal company one of the
j
best enterprises ever started In Omaha and
had always helped It all ho could , but he
bcllovcd that the company should buy land
for Its tracks Instead of asking for the street
I and Uius bottling up the factories to the
I north.
"Show us where wo can buy the land and
we will bo glad to do It , " responded Mr.
Webster. ' 'Some time ago the report came
' to us that Mr. Jayncs had said that he would
' soil us land on itho west side of Fourteenth
street. Wo took up Mr. Jayncs very quickly
and ho denied that ho had made any such
statement. If It were possible to get land for
tracks outsldo the street we would take It
j
and leave the btreot. Then , too , by laying
two tracks on the street a paved roadway of
thlrty-ono feet will bo left for vehicles. "
AVhnt Other Companion Think.
Walter Be be of the Beebe & Uunyan Fur-
nlturo company Bald he wanted to do all he
! could to get another road Into Omaha , but
. ho also did not want to see Fourteenth street
| occupied. In answer to a question Mr. Web
ster said his company would agrco not to
stop any train on ono of the tracks on the
street. If > the street Is kept open for ve-

hlclw , Mr. Bcebo said that he wanted to
itoe tlio road conic In.
J , A. Srott , who represented the property
of the Omaha National bank , the Omaha
l/oan and Trust company nnd the Orchard
& Wllhelm Ctvrpot company also resented the
chorgo that his firms had been Influenced
by Mr. Jayncs. He said that the property
was net located so as to roach Fourteenth
street , but had a right of way to the street
which they would maintain.
"Mr. Jaynes did not Intimidate us , ' ho
declared , "but Mr. Webster did tell us that
ho would shut us out 'with his tracks. "
" 1 went to each of your companies , " re
turned Mr. Webster , "and offered them tne
same price for their land that I paid for
that In the Immediate vicinity. Your com
panies demanded three times the fair valua
tion. They tried to hold me up and I'll not
stand for that. "
"Well , wo don't have to Bell , " said Mr.
Scott.
On motion of Councilman Mercer tl.e whole
matter was laid over a week In order to
permit the council to consider the objections
made.
HC WANTS MOUIIIS FIjUMIXd'S
Kantian Man Who In Anxlonn to "Get
on the Force. "
The great crowds of travelers through the
two Tenth street passenger stations have
been materially decreased In size. The at
tendants who were used to handling thou
sands of visitors every day during the expo
sition period now have more tlmo U > devote
to each Individual traveler. Ono of the lat
ter , a Kansan by birth and subsequent Indif
ference , recently obtained some valuable In
formation from the depot police nt Tenth
and Mason streets.
It was ono of those rare days of last week
that suggested spring when .Mr. Smith of
Cuba , Kan. , stuck his whiskers out of a
window In a Rock Island car and let the
soft autumnal zephyrs play with them. A
policeman passing alongside the car at
tracted Mr. Smith's attention and ho yelled
out to the cop : "Hy , thyar. Got a chow ? "
The copper produced and the Konsan bit
off a liberal quarter section of the plug that
was offered him. When the chow was located
he put the rest of his whiskers out of the
car window and said : "This being a porllco-
man Is a purty good 'thing ' , ain't It ? "
The copper felt flattered and his chest
measurement Increased two Inches. It was
with some evident dignity that ho said :
"Yes , sir ; it takes a mighty good man to
get on the Omaha police force and the city
pays Its men very well. "
"Nouw , how much do you got , If It ain't
askln' tew much of yo. " queried the Kansan.
"Two thousand dollars a year , " promptly
responded the copper , and the visitor fell
back In his scat as though somebody had
just told him that Kansas had gone repub
lican.
"Hully goo ; you don't mean It. Well , I'll
bo durned If I ain't comln' up hero and get
on the force. Do yo 'sposo I could ? "
"Sure , " answered the protector of the
city's peace and happiness , who thought ho
would push a good thing along and get back
his money's worth for the tobacco ho hod
given up. "You won't have a bit of 'trouble. '
You're a good , healthy , strong man , and the
city Is just looking for fellows llko you.
When you want to come hero you just wrlto
to Morris Fleming , that handsome man In
the blue uniform over there , and ho will get
you on the force all right. "
The train pulled out and Morris Fleming
didn't know what was coming him until
yesterday when he received this letter from
Cuba , Kan. :
Dear Sir : As I was leaving Omaha last
Sunday evening I was talking with a police
man at the Union depot In regard to get
ting on the police force. Ho said you was
needing men. My height Is 6 feet OU Inches ,
weight 195 pounds , age 37 years. If you want
any references will refer you to T. C. Prebel ,
dealer in Implements , or O. G. Goodwin ,
cashier of Cuba Exchange bank. If you caner
or cannot use me on your force please let me
hear from you. Yours respectfully ,
W. M. SMITH.
GOOD RECOIID HANDLING TH.VIXS.
Omnlia nallroailn Accepting Ilonqnctn
on Their Kxponltlon Achievement.
Omaha railroad men are congratulating
themselves on the remarkable record for
safety In handling passengers with which
the Omaha terminal lines closed the exposi
tion period. Whllo there have been several
wrecks in Omaha and vicinity within the
last two months , not an exposition passenger
train has been Involved or an exposition vis
itor Injured. Railroad employes have suf
fered moat fatally from the run of wrecks
hereabouts lately , and there Is nothing to
Indicate that exposition travel was directly
or indirectly responsible for the collisions
In which these men have been killed and in
jured.
Ono railroad man says : "The accommoda
tions for handling the great amount of travel
that came in and went out of
here between June 1 and Novem
ber 1 were not the best in the world ,
but the Omaha railroads made good use
of the facilities offered. With unprotected
tracks at all the depots , and with poor
arrangements at the union depot , where
most trains arrived and departed , It Is re
markable that some people were not killed
on the days of the heaviest travel , and I
think the men who took care of the people
there are entitled to a great deal of pralee.
It Is said that ono road in Chicago averaged
a death a day during the World's fair. If
this Is eo the record of the Omaah roads Is
even more astonishing by comparison. I
do not know how many pcoplo the roads
handled hero during the exposition , prob
ably over 1,000,000 , but all of the travel
was unusually carefully handled and I
doubt If there Is another instance in
America that compares with the record for
safety made here thus summer.
"On the big days , which came pretty
often Iri September and October , the rail
roads handled from 40,000 to 50,000 people
in and out of Omaha every twenty-four
hours. Not only were none of these people
hurt , but there were comparatively few
cases of passengers getting aboard of the
wrong trains , so careful were the train
men , depot officers and passenger men who
were on duty about the trains. I know of
only one case on an Omaha road where com
plaint has been made by a passenger being
carried beyond the destination. That was ot
a woman who took the wrong train from the
exposition terminal station on ono of the
big nights. She was carried past her home
town , and promptly brought suit against
the company for damages. "
