The refunding bond ordinance Introduced
It tba laat council meeting 1 attracting;
considerable atteatlon. City offlclala who
bad little to ear on tha aubject a week ago
axe now outspoken In tbelr denunciation of
tha measure.
The city treasurer and the city comp
troller agree that there Is no need for the
passage of such an ordinance. Thejr com
pare It with the refunding ordinance passed
February t, 1898. which provided for an
Issue of $300,000 la bonds "for the purpose
of funding, taking up and making payment
of the floating lndebtednesa and liabilities
Of the city." The ordinance now pending
before the council has the same heading.
The only difference Is la the amount of the
onds. The Issue of 1898 baa been severely
criticised, for the reason that a large part
of the money derived therefrom waa used
(n paying obligations which should have
een taken care of in another way, namely,
from the regular tax levy.
The $300,000 in refunding bonds Issued tn
1898 cold at a premium of $7,216.67, which
tnade the total amount $307,216.67. This
money, as shown by the record In the office
tof tba comptroller, was used to fund war
ranta aa follows:
On account of the general fund.,..$ 15.644.74
Fire fund 7. 39.690.62
Police fund 23,075. ?7
rewer maintaining fund 4.096.M

Express on bonds 160.00
Total ..... $306,192.77
Present Floating; Debt.
The Item of Indebtedness now outstand
ing against the city which correspond with
the foregoing are aa follows:
Sinking fund (maturing bonds and
coupons unpaid) $37,062.52
(Water rent.... 6,040.00
Ughtlng 4,014.12
ftreet repairs..... 6.013.86
udgments 1,267.68
(Library ..... ....... 1,060.45
Total ..... .$46,438.63
"There la no question," said the city
Comptroller, "for Issuing bonds for the can
cellation of the foregoing, because each
Item can be taken care of from this year's
tax levy when It la made. In fact, there
la no floating indebtedness against the city,
except auch aa can be disposed of In this
way, unless it should be In the way of spe
cial taxes cancelled by decree of court. In
which case they should be gone over very
carefully by the proper authorities and
auch taxes aa can be abould be relevled.
JVhen there Is absolutely no hope for re
(levying, then It would be permissible,
tipon proper showing, to issue bonds to
take up any Indebtedness chargeable to
auch defunct levies, The principal objec
tion to the ordinance is that it is pre
mature. We should wait until we find out
what the courts are going to do with all
those special tax auits which are pending,
and then, if we must issue bonds, we'll
know what amount the city will need to
meet Its obligations."
REUNION OF PENNSYLVANIANS
3ox Lunch Substitutes Baaq.net ' In
Program of Tbla Year's En
tertainment. . The Pennsylvania club of Omaha held Its
fourteenth annual reunion last evening in
Myrtle ball. Continental block. The club's

tendance last evening waa f ujly equal to
that of last year, when nearly 900 attended
the banquet and entertainment. This year
the club changed Its reunion plans.' No
banquet was given last evening, but a box
lunch was substituted, and as these boxes
were designedly. In many instances, f,ull
pf. things other than pie and cake, the dis
tribution by auction sale disclosed sur
prising Indentures, of which the eloquent
auctioneer and attractive exterior wrap
pings gave no suggestion.
' The program for the entertainment waa
tnade up of recitations, aongs and Instru
mental muslo. '
The Pennsylvanlo club is the only state
Club that bsa maintained its existence in
Omaha. Several were organized during the
Transmlaslsslppi exposition, but disap
peared soon afterward. At that time thla

tlstloe regarding Pennsylvanlana in Ne
braska, which showed, among other things,
that of the Pennsylvanlana there are about
1,100 voters In Omaha and 10,000 in the
ttate. Pennsylvania day at the exposition

GORDON FAILS IN TWO CASES

leas. Bamuel I. Gordon received two distinct
Jolts from the strong arm of the law yester
day, one delivered by Judge Dlcklnaon and
the other . by Judge Keysor. The first was
refusal to grant the temporary Injunction
asked to prevent the payment of Judge
Berka's salary as police Judge for Jsnuary,
and the dissolution of the restraining order
which the court had allowed pending the
hearing of the argument on this motion.
City Attorney Connell'e part of the argu
ment waa not lengthy, but Judge Eller,
representing Judge Gordon, dragged on at
such longth that for the last two days of
the four that the case has occupied in court
the room has been shunned as though un
der quarantine.
The second knockout wss the refusal of
Judge Keysor to allow Eller to file an
amended petition in the case of W. C Toder
to enjoin the payment of the mayor's sal
ary. The court has dismissed this case and
charged the costa to Toder.

WOULD EXCLUDE CERTAIN CANDIDATES
One Featare of Plaa Is to Change I
Bonndarles So That AasTaat MIN
ler Will Reside Ontslde
Fonrta Ward.
A plan is now being proposed by certain
members of the city council to redlstrict
the wards before the coming election.
When this 'fact becomes known it may
cause a number of candidates to wear wor
ried looks, as it may leave them out in
the cold. Slates for candidatea are now
being made up and after the nominations
are made and the situation it positive the
present council. If it so desires, can change
the boundaries of the wards. After the
laat spring election and after the present
charter went into effect a change was
made from four warde to six wards, In
conformity with the charter. This neces
sitated the appointment of two eouncllmen.
Mayor Kelly bad in mind his appointees
and so arranged the boundaries so as to
take In Vansant and Johnston. Now the
plan is to so arrange the lines at to shut
out undesirable candidatea.
Another feature la the Third ward line.
which runs from east to west along R
street, with the exception that a jog ia
made so as to cut the Swift packing house.
This lines gives two assessors an oppor
tunity of making assessments at Swifts.
Councilman say that this should be
changed so that one assessor should make
the assessment for this corporation.
Another ot the schemes is to so arrange
the lines to prevent August Miller of the
Fourth Ward from making the race for
re-election. At the council is republican
the democrats will have little if anything
to say when it comes to the changing of
the ward lines.
Chief Etter Remonstrates.
Chief Etter ot the fire department is
preparing a communication to be sent' to
the city council in connection with the
dead street car rails on the streets. At
Twenty-seventh and L atreets there is a
T, which has broken more fire apparatus
than any piece of track in the city. Months
ago the city council asked the Omaha
Street Railway company to remove these
rails, but no attention has to far been
paid to the request. On N street one line
of dead tracks extends from Twenty-fourth
street to a short distance west of Twenty-
sixth street. These tracks have not been
used for years and. a number of requests;
have been made by the city officials for
the removal of what it termed obstructions
to traffic.
In making a run to a firs st Swift's early
Sunday morning, hose, wagon No. 1 struck
the - dead ralla at Twenty-fourth and N
streets, and the cart wss considerably dam
aged. The city will be put to the expense
of not less than $15 for repairs caused by
these rails. t
In speaking ot the matter last night
Chief Etter said that it the unused oar
tracks In the city were taken up the city
would be saved considerable money each
year in repairs to apparatus.
Chances at Hammond's.
C. S. Felch, who baa been in charge of the
Hammond plant here since the bouse was
re-opened last fall, has been transferred
to Chicago, where he will occupy the po
sition of general timekeeper. During the
time the plant here remains In operation
Mr. Phlpps will have the place formerly
occupied by Mr. Felch. Those In the em
ploy of the company here understand that
I the plant may be shut down at any time,
only a couple of dozen men now being held
here on steady time.
. Hanson Resumes Grading-.
Dsn Hannon has resumed the grading of
the alley between Twenty-fourth and
Twenty-fifth atreets from F to O streets.
The dirt used in making this fill is being
taken from the lots on the east side of
Twenty-third street north of O street. It
the weather holda good the contractor ex
pect! to complete the grading within a
very short time.
Plant ia On.
Since John Henry Loechner has been
cleared by the courts on the charge ot
malfeasance in office as a member ot the
Board of Education he has announced that
he will go after the nomination for mayor
on the democratic ticket in earnest. A
well known democrat said last night that
from present indications the fight at the
democratic primaries, to be held on March
14. would be between Ensor and Loechner.
Sloane Is not being considered, as It la
generally understood that he is looking
for the nomination on the labor ticket.
New Planing; Mill.
Yesterday R- IS. Farks Jb Co, secured a
permit from the building Inspector for the
construction of a planing mm at Twenty-
eighth and K streets. Lumber dealers ex
pect to do considerable business here in
the spring and the proprietors ot the new
planing mill company look forward to a
busy season. Work on the mill ia to be
started just as soon at the weather will
permit
Conacll Meetlaa ToalBt.
An adjourned meeting ot the city council
ia billed for tonight and there seems to
be some prospects of a quorum. Some
grading matters are to be taken up and
arrangements made for paying a coupon on
a paving district which Is now due. The
members of the council do not look tor sn
extended session, as It Is understood that
the mayor will not insist upon appointing a
library board at this session.
