SCALPER ORDINANCE STICKS
Writ of Habeas Corpus Refneod and Measure
Held to Bo Valid ,
IT IS NECESSARY TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC
IlnUrr IimlMn Dint the Council
linn Authority io Prohibit
IlntrliliiK TIcltotN on
I the Strcctn.
The effort of local ticket brokers to de
feat the now ooalpcr's ordinance has resulted
In a decisive failure. The application of
C. Larson for a writ of habeas corpus was
nrguod at length before Judge Baker , who
refused the writ and decided that the
ordinance does not violate tiny principle
of constitutional or personal rights.
The attorney who represented the brokers
( mod his most vigorous contention on the
fact that the ordinance prohibits the sale
of tickets from windows or doorways , oren
on the street. Ho argued that every man
liaa n right to do as ho pleases with his
own property , and that the sale of tickets
from a window could not possibly bo con
strued an Inimical to the public safety or
iwoUnro. Ho also contended that the
ordlnanuo Is unconstitutional on the score
of clnss legislation.
Judge llakcr differed very decidedly from
this view. Ho suggested that the sale
of railroad tickets on the street or from
a window or doorway can bo dangerous to
the public welfare. Ho made n. distinction
between the sale of tickets and that of other
nrtlclcu with which the people are more fa
miliar. If a man bought fruit or sorao
similar nrtlclo ho could tell what ho was
sotting. If the article was worthless the
fact was cosily perceptible. With railroad
tickets the case Is different. Comparatively
few people can tell whether It Is what It
purports to bo. If the ticket turns out tel
l > o worthless and the man who sold It has
a permanent place of business , and Is under
bond the purchaser has a remedy. But
If ho has bought the ticket from a hawker
on the street , or , from a doorway or win
dow , ho'simply has to pocket his loss and
inako the best of It.
Judge Baker also hold that the city coun
cil has a perfect right to pass such an or
dinance under section 19 of the statutes , and
that It Is not class regulation In that It
rcgulatca all ticket brokers and not any
jnirtlculnr class.

DlNtrlttf Court VetocM I'lniiH in Ini-
jirotc ( lie Illfili School Croiniiln.
Judge CunuliiBham R. Scott has Indulged
In the very unusual procedure of granting
a temporary Injunction without evidence and
without giving the Interested parties an op
portunity to bo heard In court. This was
< lone on the application of Gilbert M. Hitch
cock and the result. Is Ihat nil ulans of the
Hoard of Education with regard to a now
high school nnd other Improvements on the
High school urounds are ( blocked until the
liiMrlng on a permanent Injunction comes
up in Its regular order. The tlmo when
the case can bo reached under this order Is
problematical , but If the present ruling
elands It cannot bo reached In tlmo to per
mit anything to bo accomplished this year.
The petition filed by Hitchcock alleges
that the property comprised In the grounds
| \vas platted as Capitol square In A. D.
Jones' original survey of the city of Omaha.
The deeds to the state and back to the city
nro cited In support of the contention that
the property does not belong to the Board
of Education nnd that It has no authority
to make nny changes. It Is also asserted
that the proposed change of grade of the
grounds and the crcctlon of the new build
ing will damage Hitchcock's property on
the other sldo of Dodge street. On this
howjng Judge Scott entered an order
granting the temporary Injunction ns asked.
The Injunction differs from the restraining
order that Is usually Issued in such cases
In that the restraining order merely holds
the situation until the other parties to the
case can bo notified and a hearing secured.
The injunction sets no date for hearing and
unless It Is successfully attacked It stands
until the case Is reached In the regular
order , which may not bo for several months.
Members of the Board of Education are
indignant over the situation. The board has
already advertised for bids for the erection
of the now building nnd the Injunction puts
a stop > to all the plans that have been
niade. No ono Is willing to say what action
the board will take , but the matter will bo
ti live question at the regular meeting next
Monday night.
lir.VS ARAINbT STATE.
ArriiHi'il liy I'nrlclmcr of Attempted
Intimidation 111 the MoonCHNC ,
Fred Myers , known among the hackmfn
as "Shnenlo" Myers , was arrested upon the
complaint ot William Tartchner , who
charges lilm with having attempted to in-
tlmldato him in the 'Interests ' of Charles
Moore , who Is accused of the murder of
John Do.Mnlltifl. Partchncr was the best
witness who appeared before the coroner's
jury , his testimony being clear nnd Intel-
Hulblo In every particular. He was stand
ing at his horses' heads In front of Hie Turf
Exchange saloon when the trouble occurred.
Shortly after the coroner's Inquiry Pnrtch-
ncr claims ho was approached by Myers , who
is a partner of Moore In the hack business.
I'urtchncr asserts that . .Myers said to him :
"If you repeat that story again you will ho

position occupied by iMoore. I'artchnw

Warm for /.nrhnrlii.
The llrst really sensational testimony In
/the Zacharla-Ts'athan arson case was brought
out yesterday when John Clark , a former
cniployo of the firm , was placed on the
Bland. Clark testified that ho was employed
rte deliver goods and net ns n sort of man
of nil work around the establishment. On
it ho day preceding the 11 ro his duties took
{ him to the third floor , Ho was there up to
G o'clock in the afternoon. At that hour
tbo excelsior was not spread around the
ppot whore tbo flro occurred and the header
or the stairway , which the firemen testified
nvas barricaded with furniture when they
'nrrlvcd , waa open , Clark also testified that
It was not customary to lay excelsior on
ho floor as n bedding to protect chairs
.from being scratched. Ho declared that no
furnlturo was brought Into the cstabllsh-
encnt 'from the outside that afternoon. This
iwns in conflict with the statements of tbo
defendant , who ealil that the furniture at
ulio head of the stairs which Impeded the
Slremcn was some that was just brought in
nnd ho had not bad tlmo < o store It away.
The afternoon was occupied by the tes
timony ot Julius Kaplan , whoso excitable
disposition and very broken English mode
( progress extremely slow. Tbo glnt of Knp-
Inn'e evidence was to the effect that Zacba-
ila bad shown him the place where Hie
flro started and had then told him that he
eet the building nllrei himself , He also tes
tified to alleged conversations between
Zacharla and Nathan tlmt Indicated that
there was a dlsputo as to tbo division of
the zuonuy.
Auk for Arliltniry Instruction ! .
The evidence in 1ho case of the elate
against < Uo Hartley bondsmen la all before
( he jury , but If a new contention of tbo
etate fa sustained the duty of the jury will
,4)0 merely pcrfuuctory. Yesterday At-
lornoy General Smyth Aeked the court to
peremptorily instruct the Jury to flml thnt
the testimony In regard to tha defalcation ,
ns shown by tha records offered In evidence ,
Is conclusive. This Is ft point that was not
raised In the previous trials of the case.
The motion Is stilt In argument , the state
quoting numerous authorities , which , It ns-
nerts , Indicate that the books must bo nc-
ccpted as conclusive evidence as against the
testimony Introduced by the defense.
Lincoln Hotel Trnulilrn ,
Judge Hunger Wednesday dissolved the In
junction Issued against the form Mutual
company and Issued a restraining order
against the Lincoln Hotel company restrain
ing the hotel company from taking away
from Its hotel any of the property or allow
ing employes to Injure or carry off any prop
erty. The company Is also restrained from
acting In such a manner ns will tend to
destroy the patronage of the hotel , pending
the final settlement of the case. The hear
ing has been sot for August 1.
The Insurance company likewise filed an
application for the appointment of a re
ceiver for the hotel , and Judge Munger has
notldetl the defendants that they will 1)0
given until July 22 to show cause why a re
ceiver should not ho appointed ,
The Insurance company sets up the claim
that It has a property right In the Lincoln
Hotel company by reason of a mortgage for
$124,000 , filed September 1 , 1800. A portion
of this sum lias been paid , but a balance
Etill remains duo of $39,369.49 , with Interest
from May , 1897. The Insurance company
has asked for possession of the property anil
has bcon refused , and Judge Munger has
been appealed to , but ho decides that the
case rnould have to como up In the regular
order.
l for Counterfeit ln T.
W. D. Houck and W. V. Houck were sen
tenced by Judge -Mungcr Wednesday after
noon to pay a line of $100 nnd servo five
months In Jail. The offense charged was
that of raising bills at Kalrbury. The two
men are brothers nnd formerly traveled
over the state selling school maps and sup
plies. In the conduct of their business they
used .1 college scrip for advertising pur
poses. This scrip had the same sort of
figures as are found on the genuine bills
and the men soon conceived the Idea of
cutting off thcso figures and pasting them
on genuine money of a. lesser denomina
tion. The scheme was successful for a
time , hut Secret Service Agent Donella got
onto the deal and soon had the men In Jail.
At the trial both brothers were found
guilty.
Get OfT.
Jamw and John Morrlssey. who wore
charged with making malicious assault
upon Mrs. Morrlssey , were dismissed for
want of prosecution. Six continuances wore
granted in this case. At the time ttio men
w'eYb arrested Mrs. lMorrlss y , who Is the
wlfo of ono and the mother of the other ,
cnmo to the station and exhibited the marks
they had made upon lier person. Her chest
and arms were literally black from brulsrs
and she wore a scalp wound which had been
mndo by a hatchet. She did not want them
arrested , but the neighbors Insisted that
slio should take some action.
DISCARDED FLUES ARE USED
" \Voodou Itnilrond Fence Postn Re
placed 1 > y Xcw Iron OIICM Mnnu-
fnutiiroil from Engine Flue * .
The practical working of an Idea origi
nated by General Superintendent Calvert of
the Burlington has proven a success. It Is
the conversion of old and discarded locomo
tive flues Into fence posts for use along the
lines ot the Burlington. The advantage of
these posts Is that they will not burn nor
decay like wood. The cause of moro than
half the loss ot wooden fence posts used by
the Burlington has been flre. The manufac
ture of these posts Is so arranged that two
workmen can turn out fifty per day. Valu
ing the discarded engine flues at wbat they
would 'bring for scrap Iron , and computing
the cost of labor , the price of each Iron
fence pest Is 15 cents , about the same as a
wooden post.

CITY HOSPITAL IS LOCATED
Council and Advisory Board Circumvent
Anj Possible Protestants ,
FIVE MILES FROM THE HEART OF THE CITY
I'ntlrntu Will He TnKcn to n Knrm

I'lnuc I * llrniiitc from
Habitation.
The city emergency hospital has been
permanently located nnd peace reigns In the
hearts of the erstwhllo belligerent Seventh
warders. Hereafter unfortunate victims of
smallpox and other pestilent diseases will
bo taken a long distance from the heart of
the city to a pleasant spot In a wooded
grove , overlooking the river.
The location chosen by the council nt a
special meeting held Wednesday afternoon
Is a piece of high ground A ehort distance
southeast of the middle of Florencelake. .
Its distance from the center of the city Is
almost five miles , It Is three-quarters of a
mlle from the river , one-fourth of a mile
from the nearest Inhabited house and a
mlle outsldo the city limits. It Is known
ns tbo Lang : place , but Is owned by George
W. Forbes , of whom the city will rent It
for five years , with the option of buying it
at any time. The city will not have to
erect any buildings , a house and barn being
already on the premises and the owner
agreeing to put up another building when
there Is need for It.
At the council meeting Thursday afternoon
Mayor Moorcs made an extended verbal re
port of the doings of the Advisory Board
at its secret meeting of Wednesday evening ,
the details of which had up to that tlmo
been carefully guarded from the public.
The board , the mayor said , had been offered
a tract ot land northeast of the city for the
purpose of establishing a pest house on
terms which the beard thought advantageous
to the city and a contract had been entered
Into with the owner of the ground , Ocorgo
W. Forbes. The location seemed to be the
best that could be. found , Health Commis
sioner Spaldlng having approved of it. It
waa not ordinary bottom land , but high and
dry and situated in the midst of pleasant
surroundings. A house of three rooms , cel
lar and attic and a barn already stood on
the grounds nnd the owner , In the lease
entered Into , agreed to put up an additional
building , 10x20 feet In size , when the city
demanded It. In case of nn extreme emer
gency the barn could easily be prepared for
occupancy.
Mayor Moores said that since the matter
had been thrust on the advisory board that
ibody bad proceeded at once and entered
Into a contract with Forbes for a period of
flvo years at a rental of ? 25 per month , the
city reserving the right to purchase the
property at nny tlmo within the term at a
valuation put upon It by three disinter
ested freeholders. If the council saw fit to
approve this arrangement the health com
missioner would bo able to remove the ono
remaining patient at the Miller park house
to the. new place wlUiln a week. The board
'would ' then recommend that bids for the
purchase of the hospital building In Fonte-
nello park bo asked for and that the buildIng -
Ing In Miller park bo destroyed , preferably
by burning.
On motion of Mount the lease entered into
by the board iwas approved. Burmcster
then moved that the city clerk be Instructed
to ask tor bids the -
on building- Fonte-
ncllo park and ho was so Instructed.
The controversy , "which seems to have
como to a close , grew out of the necessity
the city found Itself In of removing the
hospital from 'Miller park , the courts having
made nn order to that effect. The county
poor farm oa Center street was selected as
the best place nnd the members of the board
still Insist that that 'was .an eminently
fitting location for it. But the residents
e f the neighborhood gathered In force and
held a meeting of protest , later visiting
the mayor and other members of the board.
Ono of their number suggested a place
northeast of the city and the hospital has
now been located near where the Seventh
warders asked that It be placed.

GASOLINE BURNS HER HANDS

While .Mrs. George Nelson was preparing
her midday mcnl In her rooms on the second
end floor of ttio frame flat at 1915 Fnrnam
street yesterday morning Iher ( gasoline
steve suddenly flamed up and ect fire to the
paper around It. The flames spread In a
flash. Mrs. Nelson rushed over nnd at
tempted to extinguish them. Her hands
nnd arms were painfully burned before she
gave up nnd turned her attention to saving
what clothing fiho could.
The flro spread through the two rooms
occupied by Mr. nnd Mrs. Nelson nnd burned
everything In them. The department coon
extinguished the flro. The building was nol
damaged. Mr. Nelson estimates his loss ai
$100. Ho had no Insurance.
The building Is o'ccupled by Mrs. Hlgglns
who. rents out the rooms. Her carpets In
the halls nnd some of her furniture were
damaged slightly. It Is estimated that her
less will not exceed $ i > 0. The water ran
through to the first fioor in ono place , but
caused no damage.
Mrs. Carrie Mills , who occupied a room
In .the rear ot the second floor , had ono
cho.lr slightly burned. Mrs. Mills ran up
the stairs when the alarm was given to see
what was the trouble. She saw the ganollno
can nnd carried It out to avoid an explosion.
The flro was spreading so rapidly that she
was afraid to ascend the stairs again. The
eight of a pet kitten , shivering on the Btalr-
way , aroused her sympathy and she hastoncc
to Its rescue. As she descended the steps
after picking up the kitten she was drenched
with a shower of water , which frlghtencc
her moro than the flro had done.
