10 THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, MAItCTE 10, 1002. ASSESSORS FIX A STANDARD Till Assess Property at One-Siith Fair Cash Value. PEAL ESTATE MEN ARE LISTENED TO Receive Vnlf of Thanks, bat Xoth. imm Morr-Hnritlon of I,enllty Easily Dlsnoeed Of, with Governor a Guide. All but one of the twenty-nine assessors ft Douglas counlr met at the court houia yesterday and decided that the basis of the assessment for 1902 should be one-sixth of the fair cash vslue of the property es Sessed Although thi-re was no dissenting to Ice beard when the rote waa taken, one assessor had previously rained the point that ha could And nothing In the atatutei authorizing an assessment on any other basla than the full fair cash Value, to which another assessor made answer that he didn't care whether their course would be legal or not, aa the governor and his fellow members of the State Board of Equalization had practically sanctioned such action when considering the assessments for the state. A committee of members of the Real Es tate exchange waa present and urged that there bo equality in the assessment. They received a vote of thanks tor their remarks, but nothing more. The meeting waa called to order by County Clerk Miller and organized by elect ing Chris Boyer of the Eighth ward of Omaha chairman and John J. Olllln of the Fifth ward of South Omaha secretary. Who the Assessors Are, Those present were: For Omaha; First ward, C. F. Kauf man; Second ward, Anton Gross; Third ward, Thomas Harrington ; Fourth ward, C. N. Forbes; Fifth ward, James D. Bruner; Sixth ward, George W. McCoy; Seventh ward, F. A. Johnaon; Eighth ward, Chris Boyer; Ninth ward, C. E. Malm. For South Omaha: First ward, J. N. Williams; Second ward, James Kotera; Third ward. A. McGuIre; Fourth ward, P. J. Tralnor; Fifth ward, John J. Gillln; Sixth ward, Ed Halptn. For the country preclncta: Chicago, O. E. Holllster; Clontarf, Hans Starken; Douglas, Louis Wohlers; Dundee, L. L. Johnson; Elkhorn, H. E. Lyons; East Omaha, John W. Frogg; Florence, E. H. Walker; Jefferson, M. H. Frledrlchsen; McArdle, F J. Blelck; Millard, C. Thoeclcke; Union, E. B. Knight; Valley, Joseph McClenghan; Waterloo, John P. Hanger. The absentee was S. G. Quino of Benson. Those who spoke for the real estate In terests were F. D. Wead, C. C. George, A. Jj.. Reed, J. S. Knox and C. F. Harrison. They pleaded for a full return of the per sonal property and were asked how It was to be secured when people so deliberately tie to the assessors. The real estate men started to make an answer . when an as aessor broke in with a motion to thank them for their presence and to proceed with the "business of the meeting." The motion carried and the real estate men re tired in some embarrassment. After that the assessors extricated themselves from all annoying perplexities by calling for the motion and carrying it by unanimous rote. Bank Accoasis Elusive. - Kir. McCoy started discussion early by moving that the Real Estate exchange be requested to furnish the assessors with a list of the transfers for the year. Mr. Malm arose to disparage it, but wandered from the motion to a discussion of the diffi culty of making returns on the bank ac counts of people of the Ninth ward. He Said that In his previous experience some people had declined to list the full-bank ac count that be felt certain they possessed, . but he could not get absolute evidence be- Mark Twain's Cousin, G.

Mr. Bruner said this difficulty applied to all personal property and asked It an as sessor had a right to Increase the return made by the property owner. The chair Informed blm that be had and that be could prosecute the owner for perjury. "If an assessor tried to do thst in every Instance," remarked Bruner, "he would have two years of litigation for each two months' work as assesaor." Mr. Wead of the Real Estate exchange was still In the room, aa the motion retir ing him bad not been made up to this time, and be arose to tell of a friend of his who, being a stranger in Omaha, had made re turn of his bank a "count, which action had surprised the assessor, who voluntarily "fixed it" for the unsophisticated, remark ing that It hadn't been customary here. Wead also urged the adoption of the plan used In some other states of having the property owner swear to each entry on his list. Giving the Lie to gonad. McCoy spoke of a woman who had stood In her doorway and told him there was no piano In her household, while he could hesr one being played wlthjn. Another woman had told him she had no dog, while there was visible behind her a tall one that evinced a desire to get out and make a meal of his leg. "And as for the bank ac counts," added McCoy, "we never get them." At this point Commissioner Connolly In terposed to say that the assessed valuation of the county is going down from year to year, until now it Is $6,000,000 or more below what It was six years ago, and that the total is 121,000,000, when In all fairness it should be at least 130,000,000. He called on the commissioners' to treat the matter fairly, and not to discriminate In favor of the big corporations. He said that to run the courts alone it required $70,000 a year, and that tbia and the money for the other actual expenses must be raised. TO MEET SIUAMSHirS.

At a meeting of Company L, First Ne braska Volunteer Infantry, held at the city hall last night, May 11 was decided upon aa the date of the unveiling of the monument erected to the memory of the company's dead. A committee composed of W. E. Stockham, T. S. Lamb and W. E. Baehr waa appointed to make arrangemeuta for the un veiling and to Invite the- companies of Omaha and thla vicinity to participate In a military parade to be given at that time.

RATE OF INTEREST SLIGHTLY REDUCED Some Talk of Injunction Proceedings to "top the City Authorities from Manias; the Contemplated Loss, Even though quite a large number of taxpayers have expressed themselves as be ing decidedly opposed to the renewing of the issue of $140,000 of general Indebted ness bonds, the council yesterday adver tised for bids again. Bids will be received by the city clerk for these bonds up to 5 o'clock Monday evening, March 24. Yesterday forenoon Mayor Kelly signed the ordinance after the council had met In special session and passed it. The only change made from the previous ordinance waa the reduction of interest from 6 per cent to 44 per cent. This reduction In In terest will, should the deal go through, save the city 1350 a year In Interest, or 17,000 for the twenty years the bonds are to run. However, with a reduction of In terest there will be a decrease in the amount bid as premium. Bond buyers say that the reduction In Interest will take off possibly $1,000 from the premium which would have been offered had the bonds re mained at S per cent. A well known business man, who Is In close touch with municipal affairs, says that It Is foolish for the council to attempt to renew this Issue at this time, especially as the people are opposed to any auch measures at thla time. It Is understood that members of the Taxpayera' league will at once proceed to prevent the consummation of the deal pro viding the council attempts to dispose of the bonds at Its session next Monday night. A restraining order Is to be procured,' so It Is stated, preventing the council from renew ing the Issue should the bids be opened. In this way It Is expected that the proposi tion may be postponed until after the elec tion. The persistent efforts of the council to dispose of these bonds cause a suspicion In the minds of many that there Is a motive behind the action taken other than a desire to save the city money. Large Hall Needed. "The St. Patrick's day entertainment at Woodman hall Monday night," remarked Rev. D. W. Morlarty yesterday, "empha sized the need of a commodious hall In South Omaha for public gatherings. So great was the crowd that It waa necessary for the doorkeepers to turn people away on account of the limited accommodations." While Woodman hall can. It is stated, i comfortably care for about 400 people, It Is estimated by the doorkeepers and others that not less than 600 managed to squeeso In. Should the Workmen lodges construct a building at Twenty-fifth and M streets this summer, as la contemplated, arrange ments will be provided for a ball with a seating capacity of about 700. Some busi ness men have suggested that it might be a paying investment to erect a one-story galvanized Iron structure on vacant prop erty near the heart of the city to be used for conventions, mass meetings, entertain ments, etc. The matter Is now being looked up by some of the members of the Com mercial club and If a suitable ground lease can be aecured an effort may be made to erect such a building. Mnd Creek Again. Residents and property owners In ths southern portion of the city are considerably Interested In the outcome of a suit now pending In the district court, in which Emilia Sommer Is seeking to recover dam ages for the pollution of Mud Creek. It la alleged that the creek at times Is so foul that It la Impossible to rent property In that vicinity, hence the suit for damages. The Union Stock Yards company Is the de fendant In the case. Numerous cases of the kind have .been brought to the attention ot the city authorities during the last eight years and a dozen or more council Investi gating committees have waded through the big stock yards sewer and along the banks of the creek. In the past Investigation has shown that the packers and the Stock Yards company turn lye Into the sewer sev eral times a day for the purpose ot purify ing the sewage. Very little if anything goea Into thla sewer now except the storm water from the yards and the scrub water from the floors of the packing houses. "There la only one solution of this prob lem,' said a city official last night, "and that la the construction of a big sewer from the southern limits of Swift's plant to the river. Thla matter has been up several times and I am confident that It can be carried out providing the corporations who use the sewer will pay a portion ot the cost." Hlarh School Proposition. According to statements made by mem bers of the Board of Education a meeting will be held on Thursday night for ths purpose of discussing the advisability ot submitting a proposition to vote bonds for a new High school building. Owing to the opposition to this project In the past It seems hardly probable that the board will deem It advisable to submit the matter to a vote ot the people at this time. The ground purchased for a High school sits Is vacant and haa been for about a year. A great many people incline to the opinion that the board can secure money from the levy and from liquor licenses sufficient to pay expenses and erect at least one wing of the proposed building this summer One Interested taxpayer asserted yesterday that If an eight or ten-room building was erected on the High school site this year the crowded condition ot the Central achool would be greatly relieved. A building auch as Is contemplated for a High achool will cost In tha neighborhood or $5,000 per room, so that an eight-room wing would consume nearly one-half of the revenue expected from liquor licenses. This could be handled. It Is stated, were it not for the fact that there is the Inevitable overlap to take up and pay with thia year's receipt a. Mafia City Ooaalp. Dr. C. M.

CAREER OF LOUISE HILLEKl Not Sn Rich In Property and Hot band, ns Wu Commonly Reported, An ambitious young writer of what ht terms "historical romance" appeared at the courthouse yesterday to obtain thi record of the matrimonial ventures of Mrs. Louise Hllleke, who died the other dsy ar the county poor farm and is said to have had Ave husbands. The aspiring author un bosomed himself to an attorney, who was one of fifty that the woman had employed durlnjj ber life of seventy-eight years, but the attorney discouraged him. Among these fifty men ot law there la a disposition to be skeptical of all that Is told of Mrs. Hllleke, and the reason Is probably found In the fact that several of them wbo under took large suits for her discovered that abt had neither the fortune that she talked ot nor the grounds for action that she first re lated. The reports were that she had been worth as much as $250,000, but the records con tradict them. It la shown thst when she seemed wealthiest she had the Richelieu ho tel on Thirteenth street north ot Dodge, the Hllleke addition of five acres on the bottoms nesr Florence lake and Hllleke's second addition of forty acres so far from the street car line that It was easier to go to the river and come to town by row boat. Against these holdings was a $10, 000 mortgage on the hotel, held by a trust company; a $6,000 mortgage against Hll leke's addition, held by Hayden Bros., and still another mortgage on the second ad dition, held by the United States National bank. And as for the husbands, there Is record ot only Oeorge Wetmore, a hackman, who married her out of town after a guardian had been appointed for her and who waa not permitted to live under her roof. fiend artlnlM nt InMrnnnflnn nM1Mi et stockholders' meetings, etc., to The Bee.
