TIIE OMAnA DAILT BEE: WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11, 1902. BURT'S SCHEME THREATENED "Wlekf Basis for Computing Bharsi of Depot Ixpenss in Question. OFFICIALS OF SOME ROADS WANT CHANGE flatter Cesnee Xp mt Aanoal Mrrtlif of I'aloa Ptiincrr Station A oelafloa More Time Changea In Prospect. Tll life of the wheelage basis of com puting thi respective share of the expense of operating Union station for the different roads using It, a favorite scheme of Prenl lent Burt's, and one- which he Installed there, Is threatened. 'This state of affairs developed at the annual meeting of the Union Passenger Station association, held yesterday In . the office of Oeneral Man ager Dickinson of the I'nlon Pacific ratlroaj St headquarters. Those present were W. H. Btlllwell'of Davenport. Ia., superintend ent of the lines of the Chicago, Rock tsland Pacific railroad, east of the Mis Sourl river, W.- D. Cantlllon of Chicago, ssfllstaot general superintendent of the Chi eago ft Northwestern railway, D. Hardy of Bt. Louis, general manager of the Missouri Pacific railway, H. B. Earllng of Marlon, la., superintendent of the Chicago and Council Bluffs division of the Chicago, Mil waukee A St. Paul railroad. All railroads participating In the use of Union station are supposed to be repre sented at this meeting, but two of them, the Wabash railroad and the Illinois Cen tral lallroad, did not have operating de partment representatives at yesterday's session. Tbe meeting wss a brief one. It was after the yearly financial accounts and statements. Including the proportion ate amount of the expenses which each road had borne, had been canvassed and approved that the wheelage basis matter came up for discussion. The representa tives present were about equally divided on the matter and It was determined to let the subject go over without taking any action upon it. Should it be determined in the meantime that some definite ex pression on the question Is demanded or advisable, a special meeting of the asso ciation will be called, otherwise further consideration will go over until tbe next regular meeting. President Burt's wheelage scheme pro Tides that In order to determine how much a railroad shall pay for the use of Union Station, the number of cars run In there Shall not be used as a basis for computa tion, but the number of wheels on these ' cars and engines. Operating men of some of the different roads favor a different Plan. Contemplate Time Chances. Announcements of time changes come thick snd fast, though none as yet are so radical as those which have already been put Into effect by tbe Chicago & North western and Union Pacific railways. H. B. Earllng, dlvlson superintendent of the Chi cago, Milwaukee & St.' Paul railroad at Marlon, la., was In Omaha Tuesday In con ference with Oeneral Western Agent Nash regarding some changes of the card on the Omaha-Chicago run. The chief change sug gested Is to make No. 2, which now leave her at 7: IS a. m., half an hour faster Into Chicago, taking It out of here at 7:40 a. m. The fast night train, No. 4, will not be changed. Mr. Earllng and Mr. Nash are figuring the new schedule for No. 2 on that basis of change.' The new Chicago-Colorado specials lately i Inaugurated by the Chicago, Rock Island Pacific railroad re from Thursday on to nav additional service, especially lor Omaha. There is to be an Omaha sleeper hereafter on No. 42, the special eastbound. This car will be cut out here after its ar rival at 6 a. m. and passengers can sleep aa late as they wish. This car has been coming in on No. 8 and the change will almply take it out of Denver an hour and half earlier and land it here six tours earlier, as No. 8 does not arrive till 10:65 a. m. This addition to the eastbound Colo rado special makes It a good for Omaha purpose as the westbound, which has from the first carried an Omaha sleeper from Chicago here. Car Service Meeting?. The annual meeting of the Western Car Service association will be held next Thurs day in Omaha. Considerable Interest at taches to this session, as it comes Just previous to the change to be made on July 1 from the mileage system of car exchange payment to the per diem system. Such a radical movement is naturally of V.Nvltal Importance to a car service associa tion. At the special meeting of the as sociation held a woek ago the question was dlscusseKat length and it will doubtless be given irrqre attention at the coming annual meeting: , A large attendance is anticipated. Eismlslsg Board Retains. After a Journey over the Union Paclfto system of more than two months' duration the examining board of that company, which lias been investigating tbe extent . of the knowledge of trainmen and agents' with regard to their duties, returned to Omaha yesterday morning. The board started out shortly after the new rules for such em ployes were Issued, going Into effect April 1 last. The men were given a certain lee way of time for studying up on the new rules, with tbe certainty that tbey would be compelled to make good before, the board sooner or later. The board has had a special car on its long trip, fitted up for the occasion like a school room. In one ud is an enclosure, with tables and chairs for the members of the board, the teachers. AH the rest of the car la devoted to seats ranged In regular rows for tbe occupancy nf the trainmen, or scholars. Quitting has obtained in this car for two months and piany a railroader dates his dismissal or nls continuance In the service from -the time he entered It.

LAKE ease Members of Fish, and Oavme Pro teetlr Association Opposed to Practice. The Douglas County Fish and Game Pro tective association Is threatened with dis ruption over the seining of Cut Off lake. Some of the members of the association have derided that tbe lake should be seined to remove the carp, whlls other members believe that no seining should be done. The opposition factions are beaded by "Sandy" McDonald and Henry Hqman. Mr. Honun says: "Henry McDonald secured permission from' tbe governor to seine Cut Off lake to remove the carp, which he claims are In juring the game fish In the lake. He has hired men with a seine and they are now removing the fish. I learn that one day tbey took out 700 pounds, which was sold on the market, Mr. McDonald receiving half of the receipts and th men with tbe seine the other half. "Now, In my opinion It la not desirable to have the lake seined. The game fish ars doing well enough and will do much better if the seins are kept out of the. water. There was a large quantity of spawn placed in the lake this spring and the State Fish commission put In a lot of fry of the wall eyed pike. The seines injure these small fish and tbe spawn. Wbat carp are there are doing no harm and afford considerable sport for men who like still fishing. There are a large number of these men in the cHy who csn afford to buy an ordinary book and line, but who cannot afford to buy reels, casting rods and tbe numerous things which are required by men who pur sue game fish. We should not tske from these people all chance to get fish and I voice the feeling of a number of 'be mem bers of the association when I say that the action of Mr. McDonald and his friends will not only Injure the fish in the lake at present, but will make enemies for tbe as sociation out of men who would assist us in fighting poachers i tbey were permuted to fish for the comparatively few carp In the waters." This Is the second attempt made to take th carp from Cut Off lake. Last year other members of the association were granted permission to use seines for that purpose, but after working a day or two someone who desired to preserve the carp for line and rod cut the seines to pieces and the attempt was given up. Gentry Bros.' Shows, The announcement that the above great trained animal exhibition will be In this city on June 12-13-14, will prove gratifying news to tbe combined inhabitants of the town. Everybody waits for and goes to see the Gentry Bros, performances and their annual visit to this city is an event calling for a holiday in the schools and an off afternoon with ths ladles and children. The best housekeeper in town will pay less attention to tidying up the parlor rather than be late at a Gentry afternoon performance. It Is a treat that comes but annually, and occasionally not so often, and those that, miss the opportunity this year of witnessing tbe show will miss the greatest show ever brought to town by the Gentry. The street parade is a daclded feature this season. , Ths Gentry Bros, have over 00 educated animal actors In their roster thin year, every one of which Is trained to a marvelous degree of per fection.

SMALL PORTION OF PROPERTY PAYS TAXES Less Traa One-Twelfth Is the Correct Flare-re for Omaha, nnd the Same Ratio Applies Through ont Nebraska. (Issued Under Authority of the Railroads of Nebraska.) In the table preceding this we gave some details regarding the taxable property re turned In this and contiguous states, show ing the relative values of other property returned for taxation with that of railroads. It proves conclusively that railroads havs been assessed for a term of years at a higher relative valuation than any other property In the state. In an article follow ing this we will explain the reason and how It occurred. The census of 1900 will soon be com pleted and It will give a conservative valua tion on which to base tbe amount of ma terial wealth owned In the various states, and with those figures at hand we will then be able to determine the proportion of this wealth returned for taxation. For Instance, In the stste of Missouri, which under the census will show a wealth of much over $1,600 for each person In tbe state, tbey In 1900 returned but $323 per capita for taxa tion, or a little less than one-fifth. The various states are not uniform In regard to the amount they return for taxation, some having regulations by law that govern the matter and others leaving It to the wants of the counties and the judgment of the county assessors. In the year 1900 Montana returned $685 per capita and Colorado $402. Montana's report and Missouri's figures re turned mark the ordinary extreme In such reports. However, In Nebraska, In 1900, they returned but $161 per capita, and the whole taxable values returned of the state, including ' railroads, In that year were but $171,747,693. There ia no doubt but what thero is nearly $2,000,000,000 of property in the state of Nebraska. While the census figures are not completed, as yet, enough are at hand to show that less than one tenth of the property valuations were re turned for taxes. We give below a statement which will show that this difference in amounts re turned continues on down through the city organizations. Statement of population of various cities west of the Mississippi river, showing tbe amount of property returned for taxation in each county where the cities are located and the amount of valuation per capita thus returned: - Assessed Popu- Values Per CltV. lntlnn ntni-nd rnf(n Kansas City 145.W2 $88,248,891 $607 Los Angeles 170,298 99,975.147 687 Denver 1S3.859 77.766 1 K81 Omaha and South Omaha 128.EM 21 74S 979 lf!9 Council Bluffs 25,802 12,982.239 603 These figure do not Indicate, to the mind of a person understanding how tax values are given, that the residents of Omaha and South Omaha are so much poorer than the other cities mentioned, but It does mean that they report less of their property for taxation than do those other places men tioned. It confirms the statement that we made In our opening circular, that tax payers generally report for taxation only that part of their property that they are obliged to. AH of these figures that are given go to show that all taxable property In this state Is returned for less than one-tenth of its value, for taxation. That being the case, it should appear plain to any fair-minded man that the railroads of Nebraska aro paying taxes, and have been paying taxes for the past ten years on a valuation ap proximating $50,000 per mile, but no man with the least Idea of railroad values would assume that the railroads as a whole In the state would be worth approximately that sum. If Council Bluffs returns one-quarter for taxation, If Denver returns one-quarter for taxa tion, If Kansas City returns one-quarter for taxation. What part of Omaha's property pays tax? Answer: Less than one-twelfth. (Adv.) COURT FINDS FOR INCUMBENTS Copenharve and Vsm Bant Lose la South Omaha Election Contests. County Judge Vlnsonhaler has found for the Incumbent In the contest of I. J. Copen harve against William Broderick for the latter'a seat In the South Omaha council as member from the Fifth ward.

For a great many years Trenton Falls has been known as a summer resort with more than tbe usual attractions. At this point ths West Canada Creek, which drains a large area of the Southern Adl rondscks, descends about 800 feet through a picturesque gorge, forming a series of wonderfully beautiful falls and cascadea, called by the Indians Ksuya-hoo-ra "Leap ing Water." For several years tbe sur roundings have been undergoing extensive Improvements; an electric plant has been Installed, and the falls, gorge and woods ars illuminated at night, presenting a pic ture of rare beauty.

We're schoolfellows here together; May our love fall her never, Alma Mater good and true. From 100 girlish throats these words were voiced to the thrilling music of the famous Stein Song" chorus at Brownell hall at noon yesterday. The adaptation was the work of Oertrude Graves, herself a Brown ell girl and a member of the class of '04. Three verses and choruses were sung snd a world of sentiment and school patriotism was Infused Into them by tbe sweet, young voices, for this was graduation day and the song was the closing number of the com mencement exercises. The song over, the school girls trooped slowly out of the as sembly hall, together, with their many friends and relatives present, not to return again till the fall months of another school yesr. There waa one who will never return as a student, for she was the fair graduate. Miss Olga Lambbofer of Schuyler, Neb., in commemoration of whose departure the ex ercises were held. The sole representative of tbe class of '02, the Nebraska girl waa the recipient of more homage and special honors than are the usual lot of girls and graduates. For her were the addresses of congratulation, of advice and of parting, for her the benediction of hops and good will. As she entered the hall an alleyway of little girls stretching a twisted rope of pink roses down each side the aisle guided her steps to the rostrum, and as she left the same floral labyrinth led her to tbe doors of the building and to the carriage standing without In readiness. From the start the exercises were beau tiful and at every period they were en hanced by the presence of five score young girls in summery white. The graduate was herself gowned in white batiste. Intricately tucked and elaborately inlet with Valen ciennes lace. Tbe attendance was very large, every seat being filled at 10:30. Tbe school marched In singing the processional hymn, a school song. This was followed by the creed and the chanting of the Lord's prayer. After further devotions Bishop Williams, Bishop Worthlngton, Rev. Davidson and Judge Woolworth spoke in kind and help ful phrases to the girls and to the graduate. Then to Miss Lambbofer was awarded her diploma by Bishop Williams and after tbe closing prayer and benediction the girls sang their Alma Mater strain as the finale.

FOUR INSTRUCTORS ARE TO BE DISMISSED Effort to Drop Three Married Women and Oae Accused of Insubordi nation Brings About a Deadlock. At the meeting of the Board of Education Monday night in executive session there was a merry time and some of the members now assert that the trouble between the contending interests were so nearly settled that there wilt be no further difficulty In electing the teachers when the board again convenes next Monday evening. Other members claim that the action of tbe caucus has no binding effect and promise to thresh tbe straw over again as soon as opportunity offers. As was known in tbe proceedings of the board Monday night, tbe executive session waa held on motion of Mr. Mcintosh, who decided upon this course when a motion was made to suspend the rules and elect the three married women now In the High school corps. When the executive session wss called to order procedlngs of a rathor revolutionary character followed, accord ing to the statement of a member of tho board, who said: "As soon as the report of tbe High school committee was received, recommending that the heads of departments be dropped and Mr. Waterhouse made the bead of all de partments, Mr. Mcintosh moved to amend by adding that four teachers now employed on the permanent list In the High school be dispensed with. Then tbe fun was on. While a majority of the members may have favored dropping four teachers, they could not decide upon the same four. Finally a report from Mr. Waterhouse was received as to the work of one of tbe teachers under discussion. This record said that the work of tbe young woman was good and that she was a bright teacher, but that she showed Insubordinate spirit and would not work overtime when that action was deemed necessary by the principal. This teacher is one of the best in tbe High school and when the report was received it waa im mediately recalled by the older members of the board that she had been a friend of Mr. Levison. It was finally decided, by a vote of eight, to drop her, but no action was taken on the other three names. Row Over Married Women. "It was the married women which caused the executive session. A motion to sus pend tbe rules and elect the three prevailed in tbe caucus, It receiving ten votes. Then tbe members realized, apparently for tbe first time, what they had done and a mo tion was Immediately made to reconsider the vote. This was done almost unani mously and on a reconsideration it was de cided to suspend the rules and elect two of the married women, but to drop the third one." After the caucus, or executive session, was over J. J. Smith said: "We have set tled the trouble if tbe members will stand by the agreement made tonight, but you cannot always tell what they will do." According to another member of the board tbe only agreements reached by" tbe majority were: To drop one of the teachers In the High school. To elect two of the married women and drop tbe third. To abolish the heads of departments. "In order to do this by a majority vote," said tbe member, "It will be necessary to secure a report from the High school com mittee. If tbe committee does not make the report as desired It will be necessary to have ten votes for tbe proposed changes and the men who held the majority in the executive sesBlon cannot control the re quired number. It la extremely doubtful If the High school committee will make Just such a report, especially with refer ence to tbe one teacher who Is ons of the best in the school. It looks to me like the whole matter will be gone over In open session next Monday." Publish your legal notices in The Weekly Bee. Telephone 238.
