Green Explains Dlfllealty of riaancln Bach a Scheme Hedged Aboat with t treasonable Restrletiv Provlsloas. A trial heat of the race to b run Mon day Bight at the mas meeting In the city council chamber over the Rosewater fraa chlae ordinance tu paced laat evening before the Southwest Improvement club at lta regular meeting at Twenty-fourth and Leavenworth streets. City Engineer Rose water waa present to ad1reaa the club on the subject of hla propoaed franchise. Coun cilman Hawaii, representing the opposition, waa alao preaent upon Invitation. City Attorney Connell, W. H. Green and C. W. Haller were present, as regular club mem ber. Theae five were the principals In an Interesting, even though one-aided, debate. Mr. Roaewater, In the main address of the evening gave In a concise way the Impor tant points In bis proposition. He pointed ' out. as baa been detailed In the papers , and as la shown by his proposed ordinance ' as printed In The Bee. that this plan would , mean for Omaha power and light at 100 and too per cent cheaper than the present rate; a source of power that would be an Inducement for outsiders to Invest their money In factories, business and all Omaha propositions here, and Incidentally a lake some eight miles long by three wide, within : thirty miles of this city for a summer : resort. He showed that he Intended to secure the Immense power by storing up i the waters of the Platte and Eikhorn rivers near the mouth of the latter by Joining them together Into a lake. Mr. Rosewater also explained his objec tions to the substitute to his ordinance , which haa been submitted by Councilman Hascall. He objected chiefly to tbe first and fifth clauses of this substitute. The first of these specifies that the franchise rights shsll termlnste at the end of thirty yeara. Mr. Rosewater held that it was unfair, to ask that he attempt to go Into this work and bring capital to support It as good as booked for tbe festlvsl, the dates of which sre Msy 7, I, t snd proba bly 10, next, on which Istter dsle (a 8uu day) Rossini's "Stsbat Mater" will prob ably be produced as a fitting cllmsx to a real musical feast.

But the grandeur of hla voice was left unchanged, and that was all his friends of.ihe old Bostonlans' days had hoped for or desired. It had the old Immeasurable strength, the old unblemished smoothness and tbe old ra pacity for arousing In human breasts those emotions thst lie beyond the reach of any save the truly gifted.

Hamlin and Beresford, are I port that w and Mr. Morgan are to float tbe so-called beef merger is without fouu datlon. THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL At th offlc of J. P. Morgan It was also said there wa no foundation for th report- There 1 considerable talk these dsys nf providing means for the construction of a brick sewer from Twentieth and N streets to the river. Bucb a aewer aa the one pro posed would drain a considerable amount of territory and could be lajd at small cost at present. "What 1 needed," ssld a resident In the eastern portion of the city Isst night," is a sewer which will run esst from Twentieth and N street to Thirteenth street. Lat erals should also be laid north and south of this proposed main sewer." Engineer who were consulted say that a five-foot brick sewer could be laid for about $25,000. In case It Is the plan to run the sewer over to O street and continue the course of the waterway to the river, the cost probably will be doubled. By the terms of the present charter the city Is prohibited from Issuing bonds for sewers. This Is remedied by the city Issu- ng warrants, which draw Interest after fifty dsys. These warrants are supposed to be psld by property owners benefited. In the case of a big aewer like the one pro posed It would be necessary to Issue gen eral Improvement bonds. These bonds can, so It Is asserted, be floated at a low rate of interest, providing the taxpayers will vote for the Issue. The project Is to be brought before tbe people by the city coun cil before long. City After Delinquents. "So much trouble has been caused by property owners protesting against specisl taxe assessed for the laying of sidewalks that the city now proposes to take a de cided stsnd In the matter," said a city official last night. "In the psst, when walks have been laid, the property owners were given a certain length of time In which to comply with the ordinances. When this was not done the city went ahead and laid the walks and taxed the cost up gainst the property. In a number of In stances property owners have disputed the right of the city to levy such special taxes and have carried the case into the courts. It Is true that the court has found, at different times, flaws In the ordinances, and therefore some of the special taxea have been declared Invalid. In the mean time the property owner ha been using the walk laid by the city and was not paying a cent toward the cost. Now It Is proposed by the officials to tear up these walks In contested districts, as tbe ma terial rightly belongs to the city. This will be done shortly unless the taxe are paid." Several of the member of th council were Interviewed on the subject yesterday and they favored the plan of removing all walks in disputed districts where the ma terial was laid and the labor performed by the city. Bank Statements. At the call of the comptroller of the treasury the national banks forwarded a statement to Washington showing the con dition of affairs at the close of business on November 26. Tbe three national banks bad on deposit at th tlm the call waa made th sum of $6,495,450.39. When th prior call was mad on September 25 these banks had depos ited $.4M.240.21. The November call shows an Increase In deposits of $29,210.18. This Increase at this time of th year certainly speak well for South Omaha," said a banker. "A a general thing, funds are withdrawn during November and De cember. The tact that there I an In crease in deposits looks good and shows that the community In which tbe banks are situated and the territory surrounding South Omaha Is In a prosperous condition." Looking After Disease. Now that the city Is free from smallpox tbe officials of the health department pro pose to do everything; possible to prevent new cases. There I, so It Is said, to be a general cleaning up all over the city. Trains will be watched to aedj that cases of small pox from other cltle are not shipped to South Omaha. As th emergency hospital Is now empty, the desire of th Board of Health is to keep It in this condition dur ing the remainder of the winter, providing such a thing Is possible. Last winter the city spent a large amount of money In car Ing for cases, but as no fund are available this yesr every precautions will ba taken to prevent th atartlng of a smallpox epl demle. Escaped Prisoner Arrested. Anthony Winnlck. a private In th United State army stationed at Fort Sheridan, 111., was arrested here yesterday by Chief Brlggs and bis men and 1 now confined In the city Jail. Winnlck Is wanted by the government authorities for escaping from prison at Fort Sheridan, where he was serv ing out a sentence for breach of discipline, Chief Brlggs communicated with Colonel Miller at Fort Crook and th prisoner will be turned over to tbe government authorl to resp a rewsrd of $40 for tbe capture of Winnlck.
