4 TITE OMATIA DATLY BEEt SATURDAY, PitCEMllETl 27, 1002. CONSIDER CHARTER CHANCES Joint Committee of Beal Ftata Exchange and Commercial Club Meets. PAVING AND TAXATION UNDER DEBATE Eiprn to Prepertr Owner aad Cltlsene IMaroeeed at Length tad One or Two Point Paaaed t pon. Eight of the fifteen members of the Joint committee of the Commercial club, the Real Estate exchange and the citizens were present at the meeting at the Commercial club rooms last night. The Joint commit tee organized by electing W. L. Sclby chairman and J. B. Piper secretary. As soon as the organization had been effected the committee unanimously de cided to confine Its attention to charter changes, and the first matter brought up was the question of paving. H. W. Yates suggested that some way should be devised for collecting the special taxes which have In some cases been declared void by the courts, and Inquired If it were not possible for the legislature to pass a curative law which would affect the taxes at present outlawed. The matter was discussed at length Informally and Mr. Yates suggested that If this were Impossible It might be well to reward those who had paid the taxes by providing that repavlng In such cases should be paid for one-half by the city and the other half by the owner of the abutting property. ,The matter was referred to the chairman of the meeting, with Instructions to consult J. H. Adams, the assistant city attorney, who has bad charge of the tax rases, and report to the next meeting of the committee. Kipenae of Iteiiartng, The committee then unanimously en dorsed that proposed amendment to the city charter which was presented at the last mcotlng of tho state legislature changing the law relating to the paving and repavlng of streets and alleys, after an amendment to the bill proposed by John Steel had been adopted. This amendment provides for the retention of the present law requiring the owners of abutting property to pay the coat of repairs, and amends the present law by providing for the assessment of the cost according to the frontage on the atreet repaired. Upon motion of W. S. Poppleton the com mittee unanimously declared against any Increase In any of the funds of the city, with the exception of the fire fund, and be fore deciding upon that asked for further Information. Mr. Poppleton salC that with the present limitation It la possible to pro vide adequate fire protection by borrowing from funds which are never exhausted dur ing the year, and that this process would be safer than Increasing the fund, even though It might be Irregular. The committee, also upon motion of Mr. Poppleton, declared agalnBt any Increase In the limitation upon the bonded Indebted ness of the city and specifically declared Its opposition to any change which would place the limitation either to the bonded Indebt edness or to any of the funds upon a per centage of the assessed valuation, declar ing that the present system of expressing those limitations In specific amounts satis factory. Decide to Evade Politics. After one of the members offered a mo tion referring to tL. .enure of office of the city officials It was decided, but not unani mously, to confine the work of the com mittee to those parts of the charter di rectly affecting property and property rights, and to leave the questions which referred- to the political affairs to other bodies or to the legislators. A motion was adopted declaring that the city should pa the premium on the bond of the city treasurer. The chairman reported that the question of the ''scavenger law" bad been referred to H. W. Pennock for an opinion and that It would probably be presented at the next meeting. It was arranged to meet the members of the Douglas county legislative delegation at luncheon at the Commercial club rooms at noon Tuesday and the committee ad journed until 11:30 that day, when a short session will be held to listen to reports previous to the meeting with the legisla tors. Those present at the meeting were W. 8. rCleton, W. II. Oreen, H. W. Yates, C. W. Lyman, John Steel, J. W. Lytle, J. B. Piper and W. L. Selby. Board Winds I'p Affairs.

WEDDING IN SYRIAN COLONY Ceremony Conducted bw Father Aboad Is One I'nnanal la This Country. The Omaha Syrian colony wis out In full force yesterday afternoon to attend the wedding of Nicholas Aboud and Miss Wad I ha Schabuok, a belle of the colony, which took place at the borne of her brother, Jabra Schabuok, on South Thir teenth street. The ceremony was one unusual In this country. It wss performed by Rev. Ellas Aboud, the resident Syrian priest of the Roman Catholic church, but not after the rite of the western church, a the Syrian Catholics who own allegiance to the see of St. Peter are permitted to follow the rite of the church as established In apostolic times, or a few years later, near Mount Lebanon, from whence come the people over whom Father Aboud Is In charge. The liturgy differ In several essentials from that of the western church and the language of the ritual Is Arabic and Greek. For the ceremony yesterday the principal room of the house had been set aside and decorated. At the time of the service a large number of the invited guests took their places around the room, each holding a lighted candle, which were kept burning until the ceremony was In progress. The bride and groom took station before the priest and both, with matron of honor and groomsman, knelt during the service, which lasted for considerable time. After the ceremony came a scene char acteristic of the "homeland" of the Syrians. While the Intimate friends were pressing forward to congratulate the couple, a num ber of the young men began a aong, partly written and partly extemporaneous, in which they praised the groom and told of his good qualities. This bad barely ended when a doxen or more of the young women began a similar aong In honor of the bride, the chorus being similar to that of the song of the men, both male and female voices Joining in It. After the song came refreshments. In addition to the potatlona and confections usual on such occasions, there had been Imported some confection from Asia, and these were highly prised. ESTIMATE LIBRARY1XPENSES Board Decides to Ask Coaarll for at Levy Which Will Prodnc 920,000. The regular monthly meeting of the public library board last night, aside from routine matters, was devoted chiefly to discussion of the annual report of the sec retary and the estimates of probable ex penses for the coming year. The esti mates, which were gone over Item by item, figured up a total of $24,039, and a resolu tion was therefore adopted asking the council to levy a tax for the library fund that will produce $20,000, the full limit under the charter. The question of closer classification of the monthly accounts was referred to ths executive committee and bills audited to the amount of S1.2S6.23. which, according to the comptroller's ex hibit, will practically exhaust the remain ing balance to the credit of the library for the year 1902.

PLANS FOR REBUILDING NOW UNDER WAY Before the gnaoke of Blsr Fir Ha Cleared Away Architects Are Basy DealfalntT ftew Strnctares. Cleaning of the debris from the fire-! tne stock yards began early yesterday morning and as the day advanced the working force was Incressed. By night a portion of the ground occupied by tbe big sneep barn had been removed of all wreckage, leaving the vitrified brick floor to tell where the barn bad stood. As soon as tbe wreck of the big barn Is taken away the workmen will be directed to the smaller barn, which was also destroyed, and it Is expected that the entire wreckage will be cleared by Sunday night. Enterprise was shown by the stock yards management yesterday, when posts for new building were being set as rapidly aa tbe portions of the old buildings were being torn away. Last night Chief Engineer King of the union Btock Yards company said to a re porter for The Bee that the barns de stroyed would be replaced within six days, while the barns were burning General Manager Kenyon was telegraphing ordera for material and members of the yards en glneer corps were busy preparing plans lor a new structure. The Nebraska Telephone company sus talned quite a losa by the burning of sev eral poles. Manager Holland said last night that the usual service would be re sumed at noon today, as men were working night and day to lay In cables and repair tbe damage done to the company's lines by tne nre. While the cost of the burned barns did not exceed $50,000, It Is estimated that the expense to replace the structure will be considerably more on account of the In creased price In material. From sources unknown the report has been sent out that the sheep dipping plant at the stock yards her had been damaged by the fire of Thursday. This la Incorrect. The firemen stopped the spresd of flames before the dipping plant waa reached. No damage waa done to this Important branch of the sheep yards. Sheep will be handled and dipped here from now on aa If there had never been a fir. Shippers can aend consignments to thia market with the as surance from the management that all sheep arriving will be carefully taken care of. Money Finally Arrives.

The board here will draw on Mr. Carnegie's agent for money In blocks of $5,000 aa the work of the building ad vances. It is understood that the con tract has already been let and that work will begin aa soon as the weather permits Mr. Carnegie's donation has been hanging nre for about three years, awaiting the ac ceptance of the proposition, with all Ita condition by the people of South Omaha. Finally the people decided to vote $5,000 a year for maintenance and a portion of this sum was diverted tor the purchase of a alte. According to the agreement from the. time the structure Is completed and ready for use the city will be compelled to apply $5,000 a year for maintenance. The plana of the building have already been accepted by the present library board and It ie presumed the building will be erected on the lines drawn. Waltlnar for Ice Harvest.
