OWNER IGNORES PREVIOUS NOTICES ffereral of the Pabllc ftrhool Belld la. a AIM Cone Wlthla the Bceee f the Kew Law, Effect 1t la Jaly. Trustee Balrd now sees war to en force his demands that tbe Merrlam block, in which tbe public library la situated, be provided with Ore escapes. 8veral months ago Mr. Balrd urged that the library board take this matter up and have the library protected with lire escapes as provided for la the city ordinance. In compliance with Ills request ths city council was notified that the owner of the Merrlam block had not compiled with, tbe ordinance regulating Are escapes, but there the matter was per mitted to rest, : M. F. Rob re r, president of the library board, la said to have thrown cold water en tbe efforts of Mr. Balrd to secure the Are escapes an for this reason the council ifalled to take any action. Mr. Balrd, how aver. Is now; Independent of President Rohrer, or evea the city council, as the last legislature enscted a law which re quires that all three-story buildings shall be equipped with Are escapes, and under tbe provisions of this law. If rigidly en forced, the Merrlam block will be literally covered with fire escapes on all sides of the building. This law will go Into effect July 4, , At the meeting of the library board this afternoon Trustee Balrd will again bring the matter up with a resolution, providing that the secretary call the attention- ot Mr. Merrlam, owner of tbe building, to the law and notifying him to comply with It, otherwise the Courts will be called upon. The law provides that failure to comply with lta provisions within sixty days after Its passage will make the owners of build dogs subject to a fine wf not less than $50 and aot more than $100 for tbe first offense. The need for Sre escapes on the Merrlam Jilock, Mr. Balrd asserts, has been doubled alnce the city authorities permitted Mr. Merrlam to erect the frame structure ad joining the block on the west side. This building, which extends through from Main street to Pearl street. Is composed en tirely of lumber with a tar roof. Used as 'it Is, as a cornice and, tin works. It Is considered by Mr. Balrd and others as a constant menace to the Merrlam block. In caso of the new building catching fire there Is absolutely nothing to prevent It spresd , Ing to tbe Merrlam, the windows of which for two stories open directly above the roof ot the new structure. The law enacted by the legislature, If enforced, will require the Board .of Educa tion to place Are escapes on several of the achool buildings. When tbe city ordinance ,waa passed there was considerable talk about requiring these school buildings to be equipped with the necessary fire es cspes, but the matter was allowed to drop.

Colonel Beck stated yester day that suit would be brought either today er Tuesday to prevent the sale of liquor within the grounds at . Manawa. In this fight Colonel Beck Is supported by W.

Till OMAHA DAILY BEE: MOXDAT,' COMPLAIN OF HEAVY RAINS Too Much Water for Farming Operation! tha Put Week in lews, DATES FOR THE TEACHERS' INSTITUTES List of Those "ehedaled la Western Iowa Balllet Will Seek Hew Trial, bat Will Close Oat His Baslaess. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, June 8. (Special.) The excessive rain of the last tew days in Iowa, covering practically the entire state, has been very hard on the growing crops. Director Sage of the Btate Weather and Crop bureau reports that the fall of water for the season Is now beyond the normal and there are Indications that the end has not yet been resched. While not making any doleful predictions as to the Injury done crops or the prospect of reduced yield per acre because of the superabun dance of water, Mr. Sage Is ready to con fess that tbe outlook la not so bright as It was a few weeks ago. Since there have been several seasons of dry weather In Iowa the farmers have neglected the work of putting in tile drains on tbe farms, and the ground is not in as good condition for withstanding a wet season aa it should be. In the ncrthesstern part of the state the heavy rains have washed out much of the growing corn and tbe fact that the ground Is kept wet all the time has made it im possible to carry on cultivation to keep back the weeds. The reports for tbe past week show that perhaps as much water fell during the week as ever before In any week in the history of the state. The rain continued general In the state. All the streams are greatly swollen, which is un usual for this time ot the year-x Normal Institutes for 1002. State Superintendent Barrett has com piled a list of the county teachers' normal Institutes, with time and place ot meeting.

It is the Intention of the attorneys for Letson Balllet, convicted last week in the federal court of using the mails with In tent to defraud, to demand a new trial, and falling in this, to carry the case to the highest court. One ground on which a new trial will be asked is that one of the Jurors is alleged to have slept part of the time of the trial. It is also alleged that Judge Munger ruled contrary to Judge McPberson on the matter of admitting cer tain important evidence, which crippled the defense. Balllet has gone to San Francisco to close his offices. He bad a force of fifteen or twenty stenographers and clerks t haadnuarters. but the government has Issued a fraud order against him, so that be will be unable to use tbo mails pending tbe trial. Odd Fellows Memorial.. The Odd Fellows' lodge of Des Moines had memorial day today. There are eleven of the lodges and one Canton or Patriarchs Militant and they marched to the Green wood cemtery in a body with the postoffice band and Iowa band. The memorial ad dress wss by Rev. J.

Governor Cummins has given special per mission to Theodore Buscheck to lecture In tbe state for the purpose of raising money with which to pay his way to Haytl. Bus check was a life convict from Mills county and was paroled by permission ot the legis lature on condition that he would go to his former home in Haytl'. He had suf ficient money to pay his way to Haytl, but spent it securing his parole. He la old and unable to earn any money by physical labor. He la an educated man and lived many years in Haytl and has prepared a lecture which he desires to deliver. He could not do so without the consent of the governor and he agrees that as soon as he has earned enough for him to leave the state and go to Haytl he will fulfill the conditions of his parole. No Clues ia Peterson Marder Case. The police were compelled to release N. Harris, arrested a few days ago aa a sus pect in tbe Peterson murder case. There was no evidence against blm. He appeared to have become greatly interested in tbe cass, so much so that he incessantly talked about it, but it is certain he had no knowl edge of the crime. Tbe city detectives are still at work doing everything they can on the case, but confess thst they have nothing tangible on which to work. New President Addresses Btadeats. CRINNELL, la., June 8. (Special Tele gram.) Dr. Dan F. Bradley, the newly elected president of Iowa college, delivered the baccalaureate address at ths Btone church this morning to an audlnce of 1,500 people. Dr. Bradley took as his theme "The Creation of the Perfection ot Charac ter," tracing it in biblical experience from the garden of Eden to Paradise. The bible opened with Eden and closed with Para dise. Applying his words to ths present graduating class Dr. Bradley said they had their edealc experience in college days. The chastening of life was to come later and whether their reward was to bs para dise or failure was dependent upon tbelr conduct of life. The address was able and timely, replete with depth of thought and uplifting sentiment. Dr. Bradley's initial appearance before the college world stamps him as aa educator of versatility and power. An innovation was mads here to day in the commencement custom by the appearance of the faculty in cap and gown. Blahap Morrison Addresses Gradaates. IOWA CITT. Ia.. June 8. (Special Tele gram.)

Burlington Hawkeye: The silver demo crats of Iowa are fearful they will be put In the also ran class at their state conven tion next August. The Des Moines Register comes to the relief of the puzzled democracy with a suggestion that Corporal O'Brien would seem to be the logical candidate for presi dent in 1901. Sioux City Journal: T'ncle Dick Clark snn says the month, of May this year was the first in his forty-seven years of ex- trlence In Iowa without a frost. Is Uncle Hck getting beyond the frost line? The Pnrkersburg Eclipse asserts "The Iowan who does not feel enthusiastic enough this year to yell for Iowa should be taken to the borders of the state and given a gentle hint that his presence is no longer desirable." Davenport Democrat: With packing houses to work up her hogs and cattle, and a new beet sugar factory to work up her sugar beets, and a big distillery to work up her corn and rye, Sioux City ought to be able to work up something of an oldtlme boom. The selection of Calvin Manning of Ot tumwa bs temporary chairman of the Blxth district convention, which Is to be held at Newton, July 16, reminds the Fort Madison Republican that Mr. Manning may be a candidate for congress in the Sixth district some day himself. Dubuque Times: At Des Moines the pastors have noted the Immense popularity of the suburban park on Sunday evenings by comparison with the services at the churches. As Its population grows the capital city becomes more and more In clined to adopt the moral standards ot the cosmopolitan metropolis. Iowa State Register: James S. Clarkson of New York City says the state of Iowa Is making a great mistake by not joining In the good roads movement, and starting out with an appropriation of not less than ISO.000,000 for beginning the work. The little state of Virginia, with Its na'tirally hard and smooth roads, has appropriated that much, he says, and every slate lti the earl la spending millions every year. Good roads make good business. Marshalitown Times-Republican! An In stance of the remarkable prosperity of the farming districts Is related by one of the Times-Republican traveling agents, who has been working on the rural mall routes at Deep River. In a day's drive he ob served twelve new bnrns and six new farm houses. One of these residences had cost 112,000, and all were modern and roomy, with modern conveniences In the way of bath rooms,, furnaces and the like. Cedar Rapids Republican: Des Moines has a phenomenon In the form of a man who turned In for taxation more moneys and credits than all the other people In dividually In Ies Moines. The total moneys and credits listed is $3,442,000, Mr. Callanan has of this amount $767,876. Deducting what belongs to corporations and com panies, Mr. Callanan has more listed than all the other Individuals in that city. Mr. Callanan must have had an active con science on the day the assessor came to see him. There are several men In Des Moines who probably have as much In moneys and credits as Callanan and the aggregate of such property listed Is prob ably hardly 10 per cent of the total in existence. Iowa State News Notes. The Ida Grove Era prints a half-tone which shows that five of the prettiest girls in Iowa graduated from the High school of that place lust week. Farmers about Douds and Leando have contracted with the Ottumwa Pickle com pany to plant forty or fifty acres of cucum bers this year. The pickles will be dellv ered at Douds and salted In tanks at that place. Because he refused to sell a drink to a "Keeley graduate'' James H. Ellis, a bar tender of Marshalitown, lies at his home suffering from two serious wounds made by a knife in the hands of "Tommy'' Cather, a painter. As a result Ellis may be a cripple for life, or posalbly may die. The proposed excursion to the Black Hills by the Iowa Press association has been abandoned for want of Interest on the part of the editors. The secretary an nounces that less than twenty-five applica tions have been made for berths and that thla would not meet the expenses of a single car. The state auditor has Issued his annual report on Are insurance for the last year's business. It shows that during 1901 there was written in Iowa risks amounting to $403,948,858, an Increase over the previous year of over $36,243,236. and the losses paid last year amounted to $4,111,069, or an In crease of $1,546,735 over the previous year. Oscar Halls was arraigned before Justice Day of Glenwood and admitted having killed a black squirrel within the city limits by the use of a rubber sling shot. He was fined $10 and costs, amounting In all to about $18. The arrest was made by Deputy (lame Warden Story, who Intends to prose cute all such violations of the law that come to his notice. While John Chriatv was vnrVInx In h(a field east of Tabor trying to complete some work lightning came near killing both him and his team. The horses were struck and the team made worthless, and Mr. Christy was rendered unconscious and his body all along one side blackened; but he recov ered from the shock and will apparently suffer no serious consequences from his "close call."
