LABORERS IN GREAT DEMAND
High Wages Induce Many to Leave City
for Grading Camps.
CONTRACTORS BID HIGHER ON CITY WORK
Employment Agent There la
Moic Work and Wim Are
Better This Pennon Than
Ever Ilefore.
There Is going to be a scsrcltr of labor
In Omaha tbti season, anil this condition is
finding eipr.stlon la the higher prion b d
bjp contractors on all rltr work. Ths In
dications are that sewer building, paving
nd street grading will be hampered
through shortage of "hands." The cause
of this Is that the employment agencies
re shipping men out of the city to the
hundreds of railrcad grading camps In Ne
braska, Iowa, Wyoming and the southwest.
Railroad building In Iowa Is unprecedented,
they say. One agency Is advertising for
200 teamsters to be sent to Indian Ter
ritory to go to work on the Santa Fe.
Another wants as many more to send to
the northwest, but the men are not here
nd there are few responses to the bill
board advertisements.
"A warfare among contractors In Iowa
Is on already, notwithstanding that the
eason la scarcely open," said a manager
cf one of the agencies. "Most of the rail
road contracts call for rush work, so the
contractors must bava men at whatever
cost, and as a result wages are going up.
They ar already from 25 to 75 cents a
day higher than this time a year ago.
Most of the contractors are paying $2 and
$2.25, and the chances are that there will
be a decided advance over these figures
before the close of May. These prices are
o much higher than I ordinarily paid ln-
tbe city for common labor that most of the
resident labor of Omaha has been attracted
to the railroad camps.
Ciradlnsr Tampa Are Templing,
"An a general proposition there are two
distinct clasf.es of laborers those who live
In the city and those who follow the rail
road grading camps and It seldom bappena
that one will desert his class to go over to
the other, but this season Is a record-
breaker. I know of hundreds of laborers
who have lived In Omaha for years who
. nave. left the city this spring to tske un
railroad grading, many of them leaving
tneir families here and giving up steady
employment In order to take advantage of
the gllt-edged prices which they believe
railroad contractors will be forced to pay
before the summer ends.".
The Santa Fe contractors In Indian Ter
ritory are paying from $1.76 to $2.25 per day
for common labor, while teamsters get $19
month and board. Generally speaking,
these prices prevail all over the west and
outh.
ORDERS F0RM0VING TROOPS
Men of Thirteenth Cavalry at Fort
Robinson Get Tv o-Handrrd-Mile
March.
. Order have been Issued for the movement
of troops In tbe Department of the Missouri

At the time tbeae troops leave Fort Rob

lery will leave that post for Fort Riley.

A board to examine enlisted men for the

at Fort Leavenworth April 22, and upon
completing the examination there to pro
ceed to Fort Riley. The members of the

wanders of batterlea In which examinations
ball be held. The regulations for the ex
amination of gunners provide that enlisted

Friday eight J. H. Mcintosh fllsd bis
brief In the cas of ihriver and Morton
against the city council with Judge Ryan
the referee. The brief covere sixty paces
and brings up all points raised In the orsl
argument, together with tbe cases cited lu
support ot tbe plea of the complainants
The concluding paragraph la as follows:
This rase Is one nf imrnmmnn tmnortanre
It Involves not merely the question as to
whether or not public servants shall be
compelled to perform the duties enjoined
upon them by law, but It also Involves the
question as to whether or not these corpora
tions, rich and powerful because without
any compensation they have been granted
right and privileges of great value In the
public streets, alleys snd public grounds of
ine cny, snail be permitted the full ann
unrestricted enjoyment of all these
special rights snd privileges with
out at least contributing proportion
ately with the small householder to
the support of the government from which
they derived their free franchises, and
which protects them In the exclusive uee
inn enjoyment or tnem. Too arrognni
and selfish willingly to contribute pro
portionately with the small property owner
to the support of the government that has
enriched them and that protect them, thill
they now be permitted by a resort to lepal
subtleties and technical rules Inapplicable
to the case to avoid the mandate of the
court which Is the only aaency to which
the body of the taxpayers can resort to
avert the threatened Injustice of having
to pay not merely their own taxes, but the
taxefe of the corporations, too? Hair
splitting sophlstrlns and legal technicalities
must not be permitted to stand In the wny
of the Important and valuable rights we
are here asserting. All we ask Is. that
these corporations pay their equal and pro
portionate share of taxes. We do not ask
that they do more. It Is not fair that they
ao less.

HORTON IS VALID TRUSTEE

Judge Dickinson yesterday morning held
that Judge Munger In United States district
court had a perfect right to declare the
Greater America Exposition company bank
rupt and appoint Richard 8. Horton trustee
and that such adjudication of that point
was final.
The ruling was on the motion of Horton
to strike from the showing of Hayden
Bros, th allegation that Horton was aot
empowered to proceed In the collection ot
$10,000 from them because the federal dis
trict court waa without jurisdiction In tbe
matter ot appointing him. It 1 the old
contention over th stock subscription which
Hayden Bros, made July 8, two days after
the stock books closed, and that the Arm
later regained by mandamus. Horton, when
he was appointed, took the case to the su
preme court, which held that Judge 8cott
had do authority to Issue such mandamus
and Judge Dickinson required the Haydens
to make showing why they should not pay
In the money again.

Probably Fractured.
Dennle Brophy, chief engineer of the Wil
low Springs distillery, died at 10 30 o'clock
Friday night at St. Joseph s hospital as the
result of an accident which occurred late
Friday afternoon , at the distillery. Just
as he waa coming out of the blacksmith shop
Brophy waa atruck on the head by a piece
of railroad Iron about fourteen feet long
which had been dropped from tbe roof of
tbe building by an employe. A the Iron
flew up on the rebound It struck Brophy
again, breaking one of the bonee of bis
right leg below tbe knee. Brophy was
made unconscious by tbe blow and was
picked up by other workmen, who bad been
attracted by the cries of the man on the
roof. The Injured man was removed to the
hospital, where he waa attended by Dr. Pol
lard. The wound on Brophy'a head waa just a
alight cut in the acalp, but It Is supposed
the skull was fractured at tbe base. The
body has been removed to the undertaking
rooms of Heafey ft Heafey.
Tbe occurrence waa purely accidental, as
the man who dropped the iron yelled sev
eral times before dropping It In order to
warn persons who might chance to come
beneath him. This morning he waa almost
crated with grief and refused to talk about
the affair.
Bropby bad been In the employ of the dis
tilling company for about twelve years and
for the last ssven years had been chief en
gineer. He resided at 2211 South Eleventh
atreet and was 58 years of age. He came
to Omaha from St. Paul with a crowd of
railroad men and was foreman of the men
who rebuilt the Union Pacific bridge. Ho
leaves a widow and two daughters, all of
whom were with him when he died.

ADVANCE NOT EFFECTIVE YET
Neve Insarance Rate Ha Not Bcea
Applied, bat Probably
Will Be.
Local agents of the Insurance companies
in the Western Insurance union have re
ceived no answer to their request for a
chsnge In the rates which were to be made
effective April 1. All ot the companies In
the combination have not notified their
agents to advance rates at this time and
the local agents are not putting the rates
Into force for any of the companies until
all have aent Instructions to that effect, ss
at thla time the new rates do not apply
in thla city. From day to day Instruc
tions from ths different companies to ad
vance ratea are received. - '
"While we have received no official
answer to our protest of last week." said
an agent, "we hope that the action of tbe
companlea will be favorabu and unofficial
word has been received from aome ot the
companies to the effect tbst they are giv
ing the matter serious consideration. We
hope to hear from the protest next week."
Persons familiar with tbe conditions un
der which the advance In ratca wai decldad
upon, say that a change ia hardly to be
expected, as there are ninety companlea
In the society and all but four of them
voted for the proposed advance. With thla
majority in favor ot the plan, It Is hardly
to be expected that the executive officers
will consent to make the concessions de
manded. EXTENSIVE SEWER BUILDING
