' poiied Charter Ckiaitl
SaKKeaird.
Tba city's fiscal year commences on July
16 snd after that date the 1902 levy and
'annrnnrlatlon become available. If tt Is so
desired by the city fathers the levy and
appropriation ordinances may be Introduced
at the meeting Monday night This will
bring the report of the committee In at the
session on the night of July 7 and the final
pssrage nt tno two ordinances can be com
pleted by July 14, or sooner If desired.
Councllmen Adklns, Broderlck and Welsh
compose the finance committee and upon
them will devolve the work of reporting
on the amounts needed In the various
' funds and determining the amount of the
levy. However, with the present valuation
It It assured that the levy will hardly ex
ceed 9 mills. It Is understood that an ef
fort will be made to keep the levy down
to 8 mills.
In this connection a prominent business
man said last night: "In my opinion the
Increase In the valuation and the reduction
of the levy will prove a great benefit
to South Omaha. When Investor come
here to look the city over about the first
thing they ask Is the valuation and the
amount of the levy. With a valuation
somewhere near what Is right and a low
rcvy I predict that it will be an easy mat
ter In the future to dispose of South Omaha
securities."
Even with the amount of money allowed
by charter to defray expenses there will
Boat likely be an overlap for the reason
that the appropriation for the Ore and po
lice departments Is so small. Those who
framed the charter evidently did not make
any provision for the growth of the city
fcvrimnti. better Are and police protection I
and additional street lights. It Is under
stood that when the legislature convenes
again It will be requested to make cer
tain changes In the charter In order that a
-sufficient amount may be levied to pay run
ning expenses for a year without coming
out with an overlap. With the amount al
lotted to the fire department It will be Im
possible to purchase a fire engine, or, In
fact, equipment of any kind, unless It be
some hose, which Is badly needed. Mayor
Koutsky la preaching economy to every
employe of th city and he expects to get
along with less money than was formerly
expended.
Street Repairs.
By the provisions of the present charter
tho council Is permitted to levy only $2,000
a year for street repair purposes. On ac
count of the small levy there la always a
deficit In this fund. Rains wash out re
cently graded streets and fills and the street
force la kept constantly at work making
repairs on unpaved streets. No attention
bas been paid so far this year to the paved
streets.
This matter most likely will be taken
up soon by the mayor and council and ar
rangements made for repairs on the Twenty
fourth street pavement. This street Is
now In worse condition than tt has been
for a long time and as soon as money Is
available It Is probable that a contract for
thorough repairs will be let. Out of the
money appropriated last year for the re
pairs on Twenty-fourth street pavement
the sum of $500 remains In the fund and
this amount will be applied this year on
the repairs to be made. While no meas
urements have been made by the engineer
to determine the cost of repairs It Is esti
mated that It will take about $1,800 to place
the pavement in proper condition this sum
mer. Some of the brick pavement on L
street between Twenty-fifth and Twenty
seventh streets needs repairing, but the N
street pavement Is In very good condition.
It Is thought that with a little economy
the amount on hand August 1 will be
enough to last until winter seta In, but
then there will be no money for repairs next
spring.
Workman Temple Assured.
It was announced yesterday that the pro
posed Ancient Order of United Workmen
' temple to be erected at Twenty-fifth and
Jrl streets Is now an assured success. Those
In charge of the building assert that the
plans are about completed. At a meeting
of the directory Friday night, September
1 ' was aet as the date for the laying of
the cornerstone. Enough stock has been
sold, so the building committee says, to
warrant the setting of a date for the cor
nerstone laying. The lodges of the' order
hero are taking hold of the enterprise with
commendable teal. Some evening this week
committees of the various Workmen lodges
will meet for the. purpose of arranging
plana for a grand celebration on Septem
ber 1. A number of tho leading officers of
the order will be Invited to attend the
ceremony. This will be followed by a
plcnlo at Syndicate park. While no defi
nite plans have been made for the plcnlo
It was agreed by the directors that there
would be speaking and sports of various
kinds. Lodges In Omaha and Council
Bluffs will bs Invited to take an active
part and invitations will bs sent to all
of the lodges of the order in the state.
Delinquent Taxes.
On July 1 the second halt of tho 1901 taxes
become delinquent. From that time on In
terest will be charged at the rate of 1 per
cent a month. City Treasurer Howe said
yesterday that taxes had been coming in
rapidly within the last few days and that
there are fewer delinquents on regular
taxes at this time than lor many years
past. It was atated by the treasurer that
the majority of those who are delinquent at
this time are In the habit of mailing checks
and he expects to receive these payments
on Monday.

FORMER 0MAHANAT THE HEAD j
J. M. MeTasjae Bepamea Geaerat Maa-
trr at HI It. I.oale Reeiaaraat
Consist,
J. M, MoTague, formerly a prominent res
taurateur of Omaha, Is the new managing
head of a big restaurant comblns In St.
Louis, Mo. The organisation of the "bash
trust". Is Just completed, and It Is called
the St. Louis Catering company. It Is cap
italized at $1,500,000. of which $S50,000 Is
preferred, with 7 per cent cumulative divi
dends. The shares are of a par value of
$100 each, both preferred and common.
Four of the most prominent restaurants
of the city of St. Louis begin the combine.
the Faust, Nagal, McTague and Caesar res
taurants. One more Is to be established
and added at once to be known as the
American restaurant. These four original
restaurateurs of the combination received
part cash and part stock for their places
of business, with the exception of Mr. Mc
Tague, who turned his place In for pre
ferred stock alone to the extent of $100,000,
which carries with It $50,000 of common
stock, under a rule allowing 50 per cent
of common stock with each share of pre
ferred. One Idea in consummating the combina
tion at this time was to be ready for the
World's fair, where the trust will open a
big eating house. Another plan Is to add
new restaurants constsntly In tbe city, as
the growth of the place permlta it. In con
nection with the Immediate restaurant
service, the company expects to do an ex
tensive general catering business, for which
it will establish a vast equipment.
Mr. McTague's assistant will be A. E.
Faust, Jr. The Individual management of
the restaurants will remain the same, and
no changes in personnel of working stalls
will occur. A board of twelve direct
ors will manipulate the affairs of the cor
poration. JACKS0NIANS SEEM HAPPY

CHICAGO. June 29. People who bought
stock In Steele Mackaye'e gigantic scheme
to erect an enormous building for the pro-
uctlon of spectacular plays during the
World's fslr, now find themselves liable
for the full amount of their subscriptions,
ccordlng to tbe report of Master in Chan
cery Learning, that was filed In the circuit

Over 100 persons are found to be owners
of capital stock in the defunct concern.
Among tbe holders are Edward B. Butler of
Chicago, a paper manufacturer, liable for
$50,800; John Cudahy, $10,000; Clarence R,
Gillette, as assignee, and E. V. Gillette,
as assignee, $91,000; Lyman J. Gage, $10,000,

CLOUDBURST DOES DAMAGE
Madison County, Illinois, Visited by
Terrlflc Downponr, Which
Washes Away Bridges.
ST. LOUIS, June 29. A special to the
Post-Dispatch from Edwardsvtlle, 111., says
A terrific cloudburst swept the greater
portion of Madison county today, doing
Incalculable damage to the crops and wash
ing away bridges and railroad tracks.
The Illinois Central eaBtbound passenger
train from Alton to Edwardsvtlle had Just
passed Poag when struck by the storm
and was compelled to stop, the track being
washed out.
The damage to crops .cannot be esti
mated. In the bottoms whole fields of
whoat stacks have been swept away.
Farmers from Wanda and Poag drove
through to Edwardsvtlle and are offering
high pay to teamsters who will go down
in the bottom and assist In carrying the
stacks of grain to high ground.
The heavy rain, on the other hand, was
of great value to corn.
BLOOMINOTON. III., June 29. All
weather records In central Illinois are be
ing broken this year. Rain has been fell
ing steadily for twenty-four hours, ap
proachlng a cloudburst In extent at times.
At Intervals last night rain fell when the
temperature was at 45 degrees. But for
the rain there would have been frost. Ex
cess of moisture this summer has given
all classes of crops a serious backset. The
oats harvest is past due, but the h'-ads
are blighted by long, continued rainfall
and tbe crop will be seriously curtailed
The hay crop also will be light, due to lack
ot sunshine. The corn Is hardly far
enough advanced to determine the damage,
but it will be affected somewhat.
DECATURE, 111., June 29. Two Inches of
rain fell In the last twenty-four hours
causing serious damage to wheat and oats.
Just ready for harvest, and some damage to
tbe new railroad between Decatur and
Springfield.
CALLS A HALJ0N GARDENER
Recorder at Session of Board of In
qnlry Says Major Mast Not
Besmirch Soldiers.
MANILA, June 29. At yesterday's session
of the board which is inquiring into the
charges of cruelty, etc.. brought by Major
Cornelius Gardener, governor of the prov
lnce of Tayabas, against American officers
and soldiers. Major Gardener continued his
testimony, the first part of whloh was
presented yesterday.
The recorder objected to extraneous
views and that it was not entitled to
special privileges. The counsel for Major
Gardener admitted that the point was
well taken, but said he thought the grave
question Involved warranted more than or
dlnary inquiry.
The recorder replied that It was a mat'
ter of routine and that tho record showed
that Major Oardener bad always been
given every advantage. He bad long felt,
and be believed this feeling was that ot the
rest ot the board, that regardless ot what
ever they did. Major Gardener would ac
cuse the board of unfairness. For thl
reason the board had given the major
every latitude.
His privilege to "throw mud" was cer
talnly not granted to the officers and sol
dlers Major Gardener was endeavoring to
besmirch. 1
The major had been reported repre
sented at the hearing of the governor of
Tayabas, by the chief supervisor, the fiscal
assistant, the attorney general and his
first assistant. The recorder did not pro
fees to be a lawyer. He thought, however,
that such an array ot talent was not likely
to be imposed upon.
ANXIETY OVER VENEZUELA
! o Hews Received at Washington Rel
ative the Sltaatloa
There.
WASHINGTON. June 29. There is gr4at
anxiety felt in official circles regarding the
present situation in Venesuela. It la pointed
out that Cincinnati and Topeka are at La
Gutra and neither commander haa yet re
ported. This Is taken to mean that noth
lng worthy of cable report has happened,
Advices received from Minister Bowen
Caracas have not Indicated anxiety on his
part. No apprehension is felt that the lack
ot official reports is due to an interruption
of communication by the Venesuelaa au
thorltles or to censorship, as tbe situation
at La Culra could be easily thwarted by
sanding one of the warships over te Cura
cao, where there would be nothing
hamper communication with Washington.
Tbe Navy department ha forwarded orders
to tho gunboat Marietta, now at Baa Juan,
P. R., to remain there until the Fourth of
July, and then proceed to Coloa to relieve
the Machlas, a relief the department
anxious to accomplish soon. Its crew
sot allowed to go ashore and the men have
been cooped up aboard ship for many weary
weeks in a hot tropical climate.

swered:
"Tbe contract says the company shall
maintain permanent terminal machine shops

would be another matter."

STAGE THE HENLEY HORRORS
French Actors Make Merchandise of
an Insane Husband's Harder
and Snlclde.
(Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, June 29. (New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram.) The half
forgotten Henley tragedy has been put
upon the stage In Paris under the title
of "The Haunted House."
John Henley, It will be recalled, was
an American of leisure who married Annie
Richard, a Boston beauty and an Inti
mate friend of Clara Ward, once the
Prinoess de Chltnay. When the latter ran
away with the Gypsy, Rlgo, Mrs. Henley,
despite her husband's entreaties, continued
the Intimacy. One night, when Henley
was supposedly absent from the city, his
wife entertained an altogether objection
able party at supper, Clara Ward being
among the guests. When the festivities
were at their height Henley returned un
expectedly and In his anger struck his
wife to the ground. When Rlgo attempted
to Interfere he broke a water carafe over
his head. Next day the Henleys had com
pletely disappeared. They were Anally
found in a miserable hut In Spain, where
Henley for five years had kept his wife
Imprisoned, torturing her until she con
fessed her guilt. His mind was unbalanced
by Jealousy ot the wife he still loved.
Henley had Immured her to assuro her
fidelity, himself going out but twice a
month at midnight to secure provisions
from distant villages. When the police
Insisted on removing the woman Henley
stabbed his wife before the six terrorized
beholders could Interfere, afterward plung
ing the knife Into his own heart Both
died Instantly. As a play the tragedy Is
a great success.

If You Want the Best
In looking at offices In different buildings, the greatest praise the owner i)
rental agent can give an office Is to say that It Is "as good as an office In The B
Building." It may be In some respects, but It can not be In every respect.
The Bee Building Is one of the only two absolutely fireproof office bulldlngr
Omaha. The Bee Building Is the only building having all night and all day Sun ;'
elevator service. The Bee Building furnishes eleotrlo light snd water without
dltlonal cost. The Bee Building Is kept clean, not soms ot the time, but all ot
time.
Keep these points in mind when looking for an office, and you will take one
those listed below, U you are wise.
