APPROVED BY THE COUNCIL
Explosives Ordinance. Will Prohi

cil Meeting-.
lily
The long-pending explosive ordinance,
after a three months' retirement In various
pigeonholes, was 'brought to light before
the general committee of the council Mon
day afternoon and will probably pass In
amended form at tho regular meeting to
night. Tho ordinance was occasioned by
tho fatal explosion at tho Allen Bros.' fire
last summer. It thrown safeguards around
the manufacture, sale, storage and trans
portation of explosives and combustible ma
terials and provides for an Inspector. Tho
latter clause developed considerable oppo
sition, Lobeck and Trostler expressing the
belief that the proposed explosive Inspec
tor's duties could be easily attended to by
the license inspector or city engineer, sav
ing $100 monthly to the city. It was
pointed out On the other band that the po
sition would undoubtedly be more than self
supporting, owing to the fees authorized
for periodic inspection. An amendment cut
ting otf tho Inspectorship will bo Introduced.
Tho ordinanco forbids the storage of ex
plosives In any building used as a dwelling
and limits tho quantity to be held by any
retailer at flvo pounds of nltro-glyccrlnc,
flvo pounds of guncotton, twenty-tlvo
pounds of gunpowder and twenty-five pounds
of blasting powder. The explosives aro to
bo contained in metallic canisters, which
aro to bear tbo label, "Danger," together
with a dcfccrlptlon of the contents. No
permit shall be issued In any building
whero cigars are kept for sale or where
paints, toys or dry goods aro stored. All
premises containing explosives must ba
lighted by gas or electricity and such lights
must bo protected with glass or wire cov
erings. Section 11 provides that no explosives
shall be exposed for salo on any public
thoroughfares or public place. This will
bar out street stands of firecrackers, a fa
miliar Fourth of July feature.
Continuing, tho ordinanco prohibits tho
uso of tobacco in the vicinity of explosives,
warehouses, tho sale ot exploslvos to mi
nors without a written order and limits
tho amount to bo carried at ono tlmo by
express wagons. Stringent regulations aro
included as to tho storago of calcium car
bldo, acetylene, gas and a prohibition Is
laid upon tho promiscuous use of crude pe
troleum or coal oil which will emit an
Inflammable vapor at a temperature below
110 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tho penalty for tho violation of tho
ordinanco Is fixed at $100, maximum.
The general terms of tho proposed or
dinanco met with the approval of the coun
ell. It has already gono through two read
Ings and will be read for the final time to
night. Tho remainder ol the Informal ses
6lon yesterday was given over to routine
business.

Maj Term Opens with a Lighter Docket
than Umal,
BRIBERY CASES SET FOR THIS MONTH
Trlnl of I'rnnU Ilprr, the Miuth
Omnlia Burlier, for M u I'
ll cr Wilt HcrIii un
Wednesday,
The May term o tho district court opened
yesterday in each division except that
of Judge Baxter, who Is engage! In Wash
ington county In adjourned session. The be
ginning was somewhat slow and the docket
Is lighter than usual. There are 1.5S6 cases
In the civil divisions and 105 on tho criminal
side. This Is an aggregate reduction of !01
cases over tho last torm. Judge Kstelle will
go to Beatrico tomorrow to attend a meet
ing of tho Orand Army of the Republic, thus
leaving five courts In session.
Perhaps the most lntereatlng cases from
a general standpoint to bo tried during the
May term aro the bribery charges against
the alleged school board boodlers. The dates
or these trials have not been definitely fixed,
but they will probably be called within the
next month. The term will not last moro
than six weeks, so tho Judge predict.
There Is only one murder case of any Im
portance. This Is tho action of tho state
against Frank Derr, the South Omaha
barber, who Is accused of killing Thomas
Flaherty, a lodger at the Derr home. Christ
mas eve of last year. Derr has been tried
once, but tho Jury failed to agree. Dorr's
defenso Is that Flaherty and a number of
companions were making an unbearable
disturbance In his boube and that when hn
attempted to Bubdite them they became
violent. Derr was In Jail for two months,
but eventually succeeded In finding surety.
It Is expected that the Derr cane will bo
called Wednesday. Tho fcaturo of tho
previous trial of Derr was tho faithful at
tendance of his wife, who was one of tho
witnesses of the tragedy.
There was delay in publication of the bar
dockets for the May term and the books did
not reach the court house until tho morn
Inn, although, according to the usual rule,
they should bo delivered sovoral days In
advance of tho opening nt court. Unavoida
ble delay In the prllitlng establishment hav
ing tho contract, is given as the cause. July
preliminaries and other matters incident to
tho opening look up the greater vart of the
forenoon. Judge Kstello will rettirn from
ncatrlco Thursday, and Judge Baxter is ex
pected to be at home Saturday.

There was a pathetic example of the con
stancy of mother's lovo In Judge Vinson
baler's court yesterdaydespite the fact
that the mother had been proven an unfit
guardian for her children. It came about In
the case of the Rlscho family, wherein the
Child Saving Institute hceks to tako charge
of tho two little daughters of John Rlscho
and his wife. Father and mother have sep
arated, the mother taking tbo two girls,
while the father had custody of the boys.
It Is bald that Mrs. Rlschc Is living an Im
moral life, and at the conclusion of tho
testimony Judge Vinonhalor decided that
the daughters shall be given to the Institute.
Manager Clark has nlready found homes for
them with well known families in tho
rural districts.
Mrs. Rlsche sat In front of the court
when the decision was rendered. Sho sprang
to her feet nnd clasped the little ones In
her arms. They had sat through tho trial
on rear benches) evidently oblivious of
what was transpiring. They aro named
Margaret and Charity, both seemingly
bright children. Mrs Rlsche cried aloud.
Tho children were dhzed. It was evident
that they did not fully comprehend tho
proceedings.
"My children!" the mother exc!nimcL
hysterically, as she left the court room.
The two sons of the estrange! family havo

Hugh Landy Is on trial before Judgo

robbery of a street car last November on
the Twenty-fourth street line near the end
a typical "hold-up," as It Is expressed In
border language. Ray Brown, tho alleged
confederate ot Landy, as well as Landy
himself, was acquitted on the same charge
at a trial during the last term of court. But
Landy was arrested on now information cov

dflferenco being that in tho original Indict

conductor, whilo In the amended Informa
tion tho motorman Is substituted for tho
conductor. Brown has not been re-nrreted.
Landy's attorney filed a motion yesterday
asking that his client bo set free on
tho grounds that he bad already been ac
quitted ot tbo offense nnd that tho technical
difference between "conductor" nnd "motor
man" should not be sustained. Judgo Baker
overruled the motion. The list of witnesses
Is mainly tho enmo as was summoned at tho

friends. Mr. FItzmorrls had been known
and respected In tho community for thirty
years, and among tho audience were noticed
many of tho fast decreasing band of pioneers
which laid tho city's foundations. The sol
emn requiem mass wan celebrated by Rov.
Jamoa Stlnson, assisted by Rev. Father Mc

deacon. Tho nltais were profusely deco
rated with rocen and thcro were In addition
a large number of private floral tributes.
Tho chant wero Intoned by tho full choir.
Rov. Father Stlnson Bpoke briefly of the
character of Mr. Fitzmorrls and of his long
residence In this city. "Compelled to flee
his natlvo land In his boyhood," said Father
Stlnson, "Mr. Fltzmorrlt, fought refuge In
tho west? nnd has lived a long and useful

MYSTERY CLEARED AT LAST
Undies of the Two .lien Who Hied nt
Heuilcmnu Hotel Are
Identified.
The bodlcH of tho two men who blew out
tho gas In tho Henderson house Wednesday
night havo at last been Identified, and It Is
now definitely known which is tho corpse
of Wilgus and which of Swan. A man named
David Rldnour arrived yesterday from
Nodaway, la., to claim tho remains of A, R.
Wilgus. Mr. Rldnour says that Wilgus had
lived with his (Rtdnour's) father since early
boyhood.
This clears away tho mystery surrounding
the two deaths In the lower Fnrnnm btreot
hotel. Wilgus, It seems, died first, and
Swan Is tho man who survived tho effects of
tho poisonous gas for forty hours. Nothing
Is known as to Swan's antecedents. Tele
grams sent to Minneapolis, the placo from
which ho registered, havo elicited no re
spouse as yet, and he will probably be burled
at tho county s expense.

NDIANS GATHER IN COURT
Corridors of the Federal Building Tilled
with BtprueotatlTe Aborigine.
WANTED AS WITNESSES IN LIQUOR CASES
Chief Men of the Tribe Working with
tioi eminent Oltlclnls to Sup
press the riling of
Whisky.
The May term of tho United Stated court
is in tcjblon and the third and fourth floors
of the federal building present a scene cat-
ulated to strike the eye ot a student ot,
ethnology and to bold his attention for more
than .i passing glance. Present Is a throng
of Indians and halfbrccds who arc expected
o tell of acts which will send numbers
of their brothers Into confinement for telling'
liquor to the men and women who arc called
upon to testify. Tbo Indians begjn to arrive
Sunday night, and ycsteiday by 10 o'clock
tho corridor of the third floor was filled
with dusky skins talking in archaic tongues
while waiting to be enrolled upon the books
of tho dlbtrlct clerk.
James Allen It, tho representative of the
power of the government to these sons of
forest and plain; from him must come every
thing they want, and to him must be told all
of their grievances. He marshals them Into
tho clerk's office, where ubpocnas aro pro
duced and claims arc made for witness'
fees. Then the Indians movo to tho corri
dor of the fourth story, where they Ho upon
the floor or sit upon the scats provided for
tat purpose. The crowd Includes men,
women and children, and one papoose, who Is
carried In Its mother's arms with a piece of
board fastened to Its back to make It grow
erect.
Probably the most Interesting character
In tho group Ik Fred Caou, the official
Interpreter. Cayou Is a Frenchman who has
lived among the Indians for fifty years. He
has a son now In Carlisle, Pa., attending
school. To all Intents and purposes Cayou
s an Indian, but be retains enough ot his
white training to carry himself aB a Cauca
sian among Caucasians.
The most Important man in these Indian
cases is J. W. McConnell, ex-governor of
Idaho, who has set himself tho task of
suppressing the liquor traffic on the Omaha
and Winnebago ngency. For several weeks
he has been collecting evidence against the
bootleggers" and will remain In the city
until the grand Jury has acted upon tho
cases which will be brought before It. It Is
stated on good authority that Mr. McCon

watched him for a while and, as his actions
appeared suspicious, approached nearer.

was, enough to reveal a tall, slender man
with n white hat and dark clothes engaged
In trying to pick the lock of the front
door.
The officer was Just In the act of drawing
his pistol when tho would-be-burglar looked
up. Then thero was a flash, a loud re-port.

and caught a glimpse ot his man running
away. He fired after the fleeing form four
times, but so tar as known nono ot the thots
took effect.

saloon It was found that the marauder had
ruined the Yalo padlock In bis attempt to

cigar in the house.
