DRAKE RUNS AGAINST SNAG Hii Plani to Build Elkkorn Bridge Checked by O'Keeffe Are COMMISSIONER SAYS CONTRACT IS VOID onth Omahava Tbrfitfni to !'rnnl ' Bullrilns; of the Bridge at Drake's Flcares if It Coat II I m st Year's "alary. Robert Z. Drake, bridge contractor, pre cipitated a redhot debate in the chambers of the county commissioners yesterday aft roooa by appearing Just aa the board was adjourning and submitting aa order which be wished the board to pass. Instructing the county surveyor to lay ou'. for him the grade for the 14.000 Elkhorn bridge, a mile from the county line. OKeeffe held that thla would be a recog nition of Drake right to build the bridge and balked, maintaining that Drake has no right to the contract unless he underbid others. In a general competition, with blda advertised for. lie Inalated that as no bids bad been advertised for prior to the resolu tion of November 10, 1902. such resolution was void and that Drake only order for the bridge was that given by the contract let December 31, 1901. This contract, OKeeffri argued, waa void also, because Drake had violated the statutes In falling to build the bridge within one year from the time the contract was let. In support of thla latter contention he cited chapter lxxvlli, section 83, which reads that the county commissioners "may adopt plans and specifications for the building of brldgea and may let a contract or contracts for the building of all bridges that may be required to be constructed during the term cf one year from the letting of tho con tract." Drake haa not secured a new con tract for 1903 and his old yearly contract expired December 3l last. Harte had moved, with McDonald sec onding, to give the ordet aslied by Drake, and held that tho action of November 10, 1902, gave Drake the necessary right. Finally, however,. they consented to having the matter go bver for a week, the Inter pretation of the statutes to be left to County Attorney English, with a request that he give his opinion before that date. Connolly, who voted with O Keeffe Novem ber 10, waa absent. In the course of the very heated debate O'Keeffe told Drake that be conaidered 11 "time to take him Into court," and that he (O'Keefie) would stop the building of that bridge at the Drake figures If it costs the commissioner a year's salary to do so. TO DECIDE LEGAL WORK DAY Salt Will Be Brought to Determine Whether Ten Honrs Is Sot the Limit. As the result ot a suit In Justice of the Peace Baldwin's court brought by Peter Ansey to recover wages from Thomas M Jones, proprietor of a livery Btable at 1114 Dodge strtet, J. 8. Cooley. counael for the plaintiff, baa determined to put to a legal teat the question whether ten hours cou- Ltltutes a day's work in Nebraska or whether an employe can be made to work more than that number of hours for a dsy's wage. Cooley claims ten hours 1b by com mon consent the maximum of a day's work In Nebraska. Ansey was employed by Jones In the liv ery stable, according to his statement. a monthly salary of $35, his contract or agreement specifying that he should have holidays and Sundays off, and that ten hours was to constitute his day's work. lie says that he more often put In seventeen and eighteen hours. But things went along smoothly until, he says, one night at about 12 o'clock, after having put In a hard day's work, his employer called him from his sleep and asked him to drive a customer out some distance in a hack. Ansey pro teated. Thia, he says, aroused the Ire of Jones, who resorted to physical means ot enforcing his command. The result was that Ansey brought suit to recover $161, which he says would be the "union scale" for the time he worked and In addition to thla he had Jones ar rested on a charge of assault. Jones was placed under $500 peace bonds. In the meantime the action to obtain a decision on this matter of wbat constitutes a day's work in Nebraska is being prepared.

Kotes from Army Headqsartfri, Colonel John M.

According to the opinion of Assistant Postmaster Wocdard. provision of a bill pending before congress to regulate the mailing of third and fourth class matter will do murh to Increase the net revenue of the postofTlce department, while apparently re ducing the gross receipts. This measure Is one which provides for the transmission of certain kinds of third and fourth class mat er through the malls without stamps at ached, the person mailing them paying to the postmaster at the point of transmission an amount of money equal to the total value of the stamps now required. It is understood that the present bill contem plates the counting of the circulars or packages, and the Omaha asalstant post master suggests In the Interests of economy hat the matter be weighed Instead of counted and the postage collected upon the gross weight. This plan." si!d he, "would apparently reduce the postal receipts of the govern ment. Take a circular weighing one ounce and a one-cent stamp Is required. If (he circular weighs one and one-quarter ounces It requires a two-cent stamp, but If thou sands of such circulars are weighed In bulk the f radical part of the ounce on each circular is merged In the whole, and the person mailing the same will pay only 1 cent an ouuee on the total amount. He will save money, and o will the govern ment. If the circulars cannot be passed through the mailing machine It will cost almost as much to cancel the stamps as the pontage amounts to. There are a large number of housed in Omaha mailing price lists and circulars, and the bill when It goes Into effect will have considerable effect In this city. But there Is a bill which will have still greater effect, and that la the one for a postal note or money order which may cir culate as currency. It Is easy to believe that under the present system the Omaha office loses from 175,000 to $100,000 of pat ronage each year. Some of our largest Insti tutions buy no postage stamps at this office, and some of them have them to sell because of their mail order business. Goods are paid for In stamps because of the reluct ance of the public to purchase money or ders. These stamps are purchased in the smaller towns of the country, and their ale does the postmaster no good, as his pay depends not upon the number of stamp sold, but upon the number canceled at his office." EXCESS BAGGAGE CHARGES i Jobbers Will Protest AKalast Mini mum Rate Proposed by Railroads. Omaha Jobbers are considerably Inter ested lu a rule which the railroads hava given notice they will adopt with respect to minimum charges for excess baggage. At the present time tho charge for excess baggage carried by traveling men and oth ers Is a certain per cent of the regular first-class fare, with no minimum, but the now rule contemplates a minimum charge ot 25 cents on each hundredweight regard less ot distance or fare. The effect will be to advance the price for hauling excess baggage 10 cents per 100 pounds where the straight fare Is $1.25 or less and about 6 cents per 100 pounds where the fare ! about $1.65.- , The matter Is of much interest to the Jobbers because few salesmen have lees than 100 pounds of excess baggage, and from that It will run to 2,000 pounds. The effect ot the new rate will be to raise the cost on 1,500 pounds of excess baggage tor a flv mile haul from $2.25 o $3.75. One of tit interested parties said: "This matter waa up before the railroad some time ago, and the Jobbers of the coiiu. try entered so strong a protest that It w never put Into effect. The principal busi ness in excess baggage is done on shot hauls, from one station to the next, sl4 tho effect of a minimum charge of 25 cenis per hundredweight will be greater than if the rate were much more greatly Increased In proportion to the cost of first-class tick ets. The Jobbers not only of Omaha, bet of other cities may be expected to maks the strongest protests possible, and we hope to be able to kill the proposition as we did before."

McKenna stated that the confession of the two prisoners was for the purpose of "railroading" him that they might gain tboir own liberty, and refused to plead guilty to the charge. His hearing was set for next Tuesday. Horton and Con nelly regretted that they had made ths ad missions in the "sweatbox" and also de cided that they would enter pleas ot not guilty.

Nearly the entire bar ot Douglas county was assembled in district court room No. 1 for an hour yesterday morning that the members thereof might attest the esteem In which they held the late William Davldsou Beckett, who died January 11. Rarely, if ever, has the bar had a, memorial meeting so largely attended or s6 Impressive. J. II. McCulloch, Francis A. Brogan and Frank T. Ransom had prepared a resolu tion which Mr. McCdlloch resd and the court ordered spread upon Its Journsl. In the resolution it waa said ot the departed at torney: As a lawyer at this bar. where he has practiced fifteen years, he was a master In logic, a clear and lucid thinker, an earnest, sincere and convincing advocate. Though he was a graduate of Ann Arbor and had acquired the rudiments of his profession urder the scholarly Judge Cooley of Michi gan, there was none of the scholastic either l'i his appearance, habits or manner of thoughts lie was above all an original thinker, needless alike of the conventionali ties of the schools and of any small ..-I.I'm f society. To the bench he oommenJel himself by consistent fairness, frankness and sincerity In all his practice. His sue. a'-sses in the courts were many and iich. was dearly earned. His whole heart i In his client's cause, and his too strnlntd coftentratlon of mind, though often pro ducing crystals of thought, to often robbed him of sleep that "knits up the ravelled sli eve of care" and left him a victim at the mercy of nerves and brain overwrought and. unstrunj. In addition to the resolution there were encomiums from Judge Charles A. Baldwin, Frank T. Ransom, Judge Jacob Fawcett, Judge W. W. Slabaugh, Judge Irving F. Baxter and Judge Lee Estelle, who pre sided. All the district court Judges were on the bench except Judges Day and Dick inson, who are not in the city. The speak ers were warm In their praise of the large heartedness and fairness of Mr. Beckett, ai well as of his ability as a lawyer. DO NOT WANT WINE ROOMS Saloon Keepers Go on Record Against Apartments for Certain Trade. At the meeting of the Omaha Retail Liq uor Dealers' association Friday It was de cided by a large majority that the mem bers favor the abolition of wlnerooros In saloons. Twenty-six names were added to the rolls, and the initiation fee was In creased from $1 to' $5, with an increase ot 25 cents to 50 cents in the monthly dues. It was decided to oppose senate file 107, which is said to be a measure to compel saloonkeepers to give a bond in surety companies rather than personal bonds, as the majority do at present. It was decided to secure a larger hall in which to meet. es the present quarters are too small. Genuine Imported beer on draught. Ed Maurcr's, 1306 Farnam street.
