Councilman Stuht perpetrated Innumera-
We acrobatic feats in conjunction with the
Kngllsh language at the regular meeting o !
the city council laM night. On divers oc
casions ho became ns numerous ns the lead
ing Juvenile who struts forward to sel/o the
Middle of the stage situation by the whisk
ers , but the fact that he was repeatedly
BnuUiod and turned down never phased him
nnd ho continued to assassinate the lan
guage. In a word , Councilman Stuht wa/s
the feature of the session.
Once he was caught napping. That was
when the committee on ( ire , water nnd po
lice recommended that his two pet ordi
nances , by which he proposed to abolish the
jirefcent Hoard of Fire and Police ComrnU-
dloners nnd to construct a new one out ot
the members of the city council , be placed
on flic. There being no objection , Acting
Chairman llurmestcr declared the report
adopted. Stuht was talking wlu-n this ac
tlon was taken , but somebody called his at
tcntlon to It.
"Say , what was that ? What was that ? '
ho called out.
The chairman explained and Stuht Inslstcil
that the matter had never been considered
in committee of the whole Acting Chair
man Ilurmcster insisted that It had. Stuht
wanted to know when.
"When you went out of the committee ol
the whole meeting on Monday afternoon In
n huff because tlm council raised the appor
tionments for some of the departments. Mr
Clerk , go on with the reading , " responded
Chairman IJurmester , Stuht subsided.
MiiI"N 11 I'loxvi-ry
The councilman from the First ward
however , had an opportunity to deliver a
flowery oration when the apportlonmen
ordinance came up. There were two re
ports. The majority , signed by Stuht and
Burkley , was In aver of the ordinance as
first drawn. The minority report recom
mended the Increases that had been deter
mined upon In committee of thp whole Mon
day afternoon raising the mayor's appor
tionment from $1,000 to $4BOO , that of the
city engineer from $10,800 to $12,100 , that
of the building Inspector from $ . ' .270 to $3-
170 , nnd that of the boiler Inspector $100
Councilman Stuht dwelt upon several
"well known factn" for half an hour regard
ing the tax eaters' habits or grazing "on
the public crib , " but his effort was unavail
ing. HI" ! motion to adopt the majority re
port was supported only by himself and
J3urkley and the minority report was
adopted with only the same two votes
recorded In the negative. The amended or
dinance was passed on the third reading
by the same vote
Against Stuht's objections , also , the coun
cil placed on file the resolution ordering the
liulldlng Inspector to discharge his as
sistants and adopted a resolution according
to which the city comptroller will be per
mitted to retain one ot his two extra clerks.
The other clerk is to bo discharged today
Councilman Kobeck Introduced n resolu
tion to appropriate $2 000 out of the general
fund for the salaries of the sewer maintain
ing force The councilman explained that
thlh amount will provide the salaries ot two
power Inspectors who ha\e been discharged
on account of the small levy f.pr the sewer
maintaining fund. He declared that these
inspectors are absolutely needed to properly
look after the sewers.
This mo\e on the part of his running
mate brought Stuht to his feet with strcn-
uouh objections He Instated that the men
nre not needed and the whole thing was in
tended to "keep .111 army on the public
crib. " He asserted that Lobeck hlnuelf had
told him that these Inspectors In past jears
ha\o spent their time In 'warming their
fingers on a hot stove" He therefore
moved that the resolution be referred
Uefore the vote on the question was taken
City Engineer Hosewnter was called upon
for an expression ot opinion He said that
with the $3,000 available fcr tower main
tenance but one foreman and three men arc.
employed on sewer repairs Two additional
men , he said , would not keep the sewers in
proper repair , but would be better than
nothing. Ho denied that in the past the
members of this force had done more Idling
than employes In other business
Councilman l/s'beck ' took occasion to re-
murk that the members ot the sang were
getting too much for
wages forty-flve-hours-
ii-week work anyway , but City Engineer
Ilosowater asserted that the wages wore
none too great for the dlrtj work the men
liavo to do
f
The motion to refer was lost and the
resolution was adopted , Stuht nnd Mount
only voting in the negative.

The piece do resistance of all of the efforts
of Councilman Stubt , 'however ' , occurred In
connection with the following resolution ,
which was Introduced uni'er his name
That as a rellbxi of the sentiment of the
people of the cltj of Omaha , thu city council
hereby1 expresses Its approval of the action
f Governor Poynter in vetoing the bill for
the extension of the supreme court commis
sion , bald commission having failed to give
the relief contemplated nt the time of Its
CfMtlnn and having proved a costly ex
periment to the taxpajorR of the state , owing
to the lawless course pursued by the com
mission In the systematic raids made by Its t
Members on the public treasury.
This document wai > drawn up by a mem-
lier of the Hcrdrnan gang who was present
in the council chamber , and this Individual
made nn concealment of the fact Stuht ,
however , did not know that tlm author of
the resolution nni disclosed his Identity and
lie edified hln fellow cltj fathers with a
magnificent bluff He declared that he ImA
just come from Llwoln and had there dls-
tovered that not only hundreds , but thou
sands , of Nebraskanu were in favor of the
sarsaparilla' '
which

vote hud not jet been telegraphed over the
state , lie also disclosed some "well known
fact * ' Bbout supreme court commissioners
nnd their wives and sweethearts , sisters nnd
fiunts. feeding "on the public crib "
'What business Is It of the city council
of Omaha whether they feed 'on the public
crib or not * " responded President Hlngham.
'We are here as representatives of the citi
zen of Omahi to transact the city's busi
ness that is brought before us and that Is
all we are expected to do "
On the vote the resolution wns turned
down , the throe populists of the council
only voting In favor of it Stuht , Lobeck
and Uurkley.
In reporting the I'ebruary appropriation
ordinance the finance committee made rec
ommendation that a number of Items be
stricken out for reasons In which the public
generally will be Interested. Kor example ,
the bills of the electric light company were
laid over until the city attorney shall report
whether , under the decision In the viaduct
case , the viaduct lights included In the bills
should not properly be paid by the railroad
companies nnd not by the city. Items
amounting to $150 $ In favor of the Union Pa
cific company were also str.Aen out pend
ing a settlement of claims of the city
ngaln t tno railroad companies for viaduct
repairs.
The committee also recommended that
items In favor of John Grant and the Bar
ber Asphalt company for repairing asphalt
pavements during the last six months of
ISIS , amounting to some $11.000 , bo stricken
out and referred to the city attorney for
nn opinion ns to whether or not the amount
of thc c repairs should not be assessed
against the property specially benefited ,
according to the charter. Several of the
council believe that the cost of repairs
should be assessed as well as the cost of
paving. All these recommendations were
followed.
Capitol vveniie Ordered 1'aA ed.
The rcpavlng of Capitol nvenue wns finally
ordered. Two ordinances to this effect were
passed on the third reading , one providing
for a district from Eighteenth to Twentieth
and the other n district between Sixteenth

this way In order to allow the block be
tween Seventeenth and Eighteenth to be
parked In accordance with the wishes of the
adjoining property owners
An ordinance changing slightly the bounds
of the market place wns passed on the third
j reading According to the new law , the

FOR AN ENLARGED DIRECTORY
Hoard of Director * of tinCnilter
America i\i < > Mlrion Voted to
Ailil Ton llfiaberx.
The question of the enlargement of the
directory from twenty-five to thirty-fix e
members as the principal question that
decided b > the board of directors of the
Greater America Exposition at its meeting
last night. The articles of Incorporation
provide that the board can be increased to
this extent whenever it is considered de
sirable and after some discussion a resolu
tion was adopted by which the provision
will be utilized. The stockholders' election
was called at the Hoard of Trade rooms
31
Wednesday evening , March 22 , at 8 o'clock ,
nnd onlj those stockholders who have paid'
their first two abbessrnents In full will bo
eligible to vote.
A considerable part of the meeting was
occupied by discussion of plans for gixing an
element of novelty and originality to the
coming show. It was the sentiment of the
directors that an especial effort shall be ,
made to gl\o a tiepical effect to the colo-
nlal features of ,
the exposition In ac
cordance with this plan the interiors of the
buildings will be converted into bowers of
tropical beauty by the lavish use '
of palma and other kinds of
tropical vegetation which will bo secured
from the colonies This will bo the pre
vailing effect all oxer the grounds and the
result will bn to glxo the exposition a dis-
llnctixely original and attractive appearance.
A telegram from Senator Thurston In
\\lmli he stated that he would meet the
reprebentatlxea of the exposition In Wash
ington at an > time to confer In regard to
securing governmental assistance in the
matter of colonial exhibits , was recclxcd
and filed.
On a-count of the pressure of personal
.
Interests connected xxith the recent loss of
his residence by fire President Miller has
been gixen permission to delay bis de
parture for Washington until later in the
week It Is thought that since Mr. Her Is
already on the way the matters In hand can
bo attended to by him until Dr. Miller can
get away.
A number of additional concessions have
been granted , most of which go to the same
persons who operated them a jcar ago The
Chinese Ullage t onccsslon was let to
George Kay and those for the old planta
tion , scenic theater , oclorama and moxing
pictures to U W. McConnell. The proposi
tion of John II Key to act as art director
for the exposition has been accepted.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS. ,
It begins to look now as If the L street
viaduct would at last bo placed In a past
snblo condition Notwlthotflndlng the fact
that the city council failed to take decisive
action on the ordinance compelling the
Union Pacific railroad and the Union Slock
Yards railroad to repair this bridge It Is
understood that these companies will com
mence the repair work on April 3 A
quantity of material Is now on hand and
more has been ordered , The bridge will bo
replunked and the footwalki will be relnld
No effort will bo made , however , to paint
the Iron work until warm weather arrives.
Every piece of Iron In this bridge will liavo
to bo scraped In order to remove the rust
before any paint can be applied. General
Manager Kcnj-on of the stock yards com
pany nnd Chief Engineer King of the same
company stated yesterday that ns soon as
the weather would permit a force of men
would bo put to work relaying the planking
and walks. Engineer King said it would
not be necessary to close the bridge , as ono
side would be taken at a time In order not
to Interrupt trnfiTc
The Q Btreet viaduct Is In much worse
shape than the L street bridge. But the
council has not up to the present time taken
any action toward passing an ordinance re
quiring the railroads to make the necessary
repairs. U Is understood that this matter
will be taken up before long as the bridge
Is in such a state that Itwill foavo to be
closed unless something Is done before long.

REVENUE STAMPS ON BONDS
Collector llontr G lie * n Hiillapr
Handed UOVMI 1i > CiiinnilN-
MllllKT AVIlNOIl.
Among the numerous misunderstandings
on the part ot citizens that have been
caused by the operation of the revenue
stamp law , ono of the most frequent has oc
curred In connection with the stamping of
bonds which are secured Tjy mortgages.
Many people did not understand which docu
ment should be stamped or whether It wns
necessary to stamp both and this has re
sulted in a good deal of annoyance to rev
enue offlc'als. Collector Houtz has Just re
ceived a ruling from Commissioner Wilson
on this point , which will clear away any un
certainty that may have existed.
This refers to the law passed February 28 ,
ISO'i , which 16 In part :
"Whenever any bond or note shall be se
em cd toy .a mortgage or deed ot trust but
one stamp shall be required to be placed
upon such papers , provided , that the stamp
tax placed thereon shall be the highest rate
lequired by said instruments , or either of
them
"You will therefor * see that when a bond
is executed bv a private person and Is se
cured by n mortgage that the tax is 50 cents
on the bond. You will also see that accordIng -
Ing to the tax on mortgages that there Is
no tax accruing on a mortgage If the sum
secured does not exceed $1,000. The tax on
a mortgage securing a sum exceeding $1.000 ,
and not exceeding Jl.jOO , Is 25 cents. There
fore In any case where a mortgage and bond
is given by a private person for a sum not
exceeding $1,500 the greater tax should ac
crue on the bond , and under amendment the
bond should be stamped. After the secured
sum of $1,500 la exceeded and the excess Is
not greater than $2,000 , the taxation on the
bond and on the mortgage is equal , being
50 cents on each Instrument When the tax
Is equal It is the ruling of this office that
the mortgage shoi.ld bo stamped and not the
bond "
The ruling further states that the Instru
ment which is relieved from taxation under
this amendment should have endorsed upon
H that the other Instrument is duly stamped
according to law.

Some of the councllmen will try to Induce
the legislature to put Lobeck's scheme Into
effect This legislative aid xxill not bo
needed if the charter amendment bill goes
into effect. This bill abolishes the Advisory-
board. With the board put out of existence
the council has the poxver by ordinance to
assume Its duties if It so desires.
