RAIKES AND HIS HALF HEDGE
f'onrt Concludes He "old Xo More Than
He Owned and Flnda Him "at
t.nlltr f Fraud. "
TLATTSMOUTH, Neb., Nov. 1. (Special.)
Jerk Ralkes, charged with obtaining
money under false pretenses, was founl
not guilty In Justice Arrher's court. The
caee was a rather complicated one and
had a number of Interesting featurca. It
was shown that a man named tulbertson
bed made a deal to cut a string of hedge
fence on the Levi Churchill place, agreeing
to cut tbe hedge Into posts for a half share
of the same. Before the work waa done
Culbcrtson sold half of his Interest to
Ralkes, and the Utter in turn sold out to
William McOhee. The last-named pur
chaser thought he had bought the entire
fence, and when he found that Raikes did
not own It he awore out a complaint against
him for obtaining money under false pre
tenses. The court, however, concluded that
there waa nothing to show that Ralkes bad
represented himself as the owner jt tho
hedge, and that he bad mete! aold his
Interest In the contract and not In the
hedge.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 1. (Special.) City At
torney Strode today served upon the at
torneys of the Lincoln Traction company a
nlnoty-elgbt-page brief In support of the
city's appeal from Judge Cornish's de
cision In the somewhat celebrated tax case.
This Is the long-pending suit in which the
city seeks to foreclose upon the property
of the street railway company a Hen ot
$134,000 for paving taxes, due ever since
18S7 and up to tbe time the company went
into the hands of a receiver. Since the
latter date tbe taxca have all been paid.
Tbe new owners of the company, who de
rive their title through tbe foreclosure of
a mortgage of the New York Security and
Trust company, the first mortgage bond
holders, dispute the correctness of tho
claim of the city and Insist that thuy
should not pay for tbe taxes due from thJ
Rapid Transit company, which was con
solidated with the old Lincoln Street Rail
way company after tbe fust mortgage bad
been given. ' The road was made tho vic
tim of a stock Jobbing operation In the i
early '90s, and the contest now is between i
the city and the victimized first mortgage
bondholders, which should stand tbe loss,
it being claimed thst the city, having had
an opportunity to tolle.-t the taxes, should
lose, as being the one most negligent In
the premises.
This suit has caused all sorts of trouble
In Lincoln. The tract lou company once got
the city to accept ,a $85,000 compromise,
but Dr. Farnham enjoined this and It fell
through.
The decree of the district court, from
which an appeal is taken, gave judgment
for an aggregate of $4,168 214.01. Ot this
the city got first lien for $57,116, tsxes
due; tbe New York Security and Trust
company secured a second lien for $'J04.000;
the city got a third lien for $44,208.46 and
the New York Guaranty and Indemnity
company, second mortgage bolders, lor
$1,162,883.
The city's chief cause of complaint is
that the court disregarded the evidence
showing that the Rapid Transit company
waa consolidated with the Lincoln Street
railway before the mortgage waa given,
and therefore the Rapid Transit taxes,
represented by the thtrd lien as above,
should really come in ahead of the first
mortgage, which gets a second Hen. In
the present sistus of the caue, if this
claim is successful, the Traction company,
to get a clear title, muBt pay both liens.
Qnarrel Over I'avlag.
Before Judge Frost this afternoon City
Attorney Strode made his return to the
writ of mandamus asked by tbe Barber
Asphslt company to compel the mayor and
city council to amard It tbe contract for
paving district No. 16, C street from Elev
enth to Seventeenth.
The contract was awarded the Green
River company as the lowest bidder. The
Barber company oDered to do the actual
paving for less than the other, but the
Green River folks bid on all three, curb
ing, griding and paving, and by aggregat
ing thtss the work would b dona by the
Green River people for less than the bid
of the Barber company for paving, added
to that ot other contractors for grading
and curbing.
The Barber company complains that no
such discretionary power Is lodged In the
council, and that the charter la explicit In
saying that tbe paving must be awarded
to tbe lowest responsible bidder.
Another factor waa that the Green River
people agreed to lay the paving this fall,
while the Barber company declined to do
It until spring. The case will be submit
ted to Judge Frost for Immediate decision.
Fined foe Violating- Game Law.
Deputy Game Warden Slmpklns has re
ceived letters from George L. Carter, trav
eling deputy of the game and fish com
mission, to the effect that he recently se
cured the arrest of Charles Porter of Box
Butte county for having shot an antelope
in Cheyenne county without a license. The
accused was given trial at Alliance before
County Judge D. K. Spacht, who. In view
of the man's poverty. Inflicted the mini
mum penalty, a fine of $2 and coats. Under
the game law of the state one may hunt
game In the open season In his own county
without a license, but If he hunts beyond
the limits of his county he must first sup
ply himself with a license, which may be
obtained ot any county clerk and which
entitles tbe holder to hunt In any county
In the state. '
