OMAHA'S NEW PAVING PLANT
It Wi.lBe Located. lh Cornet of Elstsath
and Panl Street
WILL TURN OUT BITUUTHIC PAVEMENT
John Grant, Oeaeral ef the
Conpair, Explains the Hal Pf
lag; Material ta Ba latra
deeed la Tkla City.
Omaha will have an entirely new kind ef
street paving plant within the next els
weeks. The lite at Eleventh and Paul
treeta haa already been aecured, tha com'
pany haa been organised and tha machinery
haa been ordered and will ba on tha road In
a few daya.
John Grant, who some years ago organ
Ized the Grant Paving company, la tha pro
moter of the new company, which la .-ailed
tha Nebraska Bltullthlo company, and la
vice president and general manager. The
location selected ta that formerly occupied
by the Grant Paving company before It and
other Independent or semi-Independent
companlea were swallowed up or forced
out of the bualneas by the Asphalt trust
"I have not cared up to the present time
to eay anything about the new company,
eald Contractor Grant, "but we are retdy
to begin work now and will be In the field
for any asphalt or bltullthlc paving which
la to be done in Omaha this year, ao there
la no reason for keeping quiet about It any
longer. The new plant will be prepared to
do asphalt paring, the principal difference
In machinery being that for bltullthlc pav
ing heavier machinery la required, and also
certain apparatus, such aa screens, which
are not required In a strictly asphalt plant
A ten-ton steam roller la a part of the ma
chinery ordered. Except the boiler and en
gine, which have been contracted for In
Omaha, all the machinery la coming from
the east.
Ho War, bat Competition.
"This does not mean that there la going
to be a paving war In Omaha this year. At
least not such a war aa a few years ago
when asphalt paving was laid as low aa 11.20
a yard, or less. The prices of bltullthlc
paving will be about the name aa for as
phalt paving when there Is reasonable com
petition. By that I mean fair pricea, or
lower than when the Asphalt trust had ev
erything Ita own way.
"Bltullthlc paving Is. In my opinion, and
I have been In the paving business thirty
six yeara. the best, both In cleanliness and
laatlng qualities, and I believe It to bo tha
coming pavement for all cities and towna.
It is. I know, something entirely new
here, but it haa been making rapid progress
In the east In tha laat couple of yeara, or
since the process was perfected.
"Whereas asphalt pavement la a bitumln
Oua . mortar pavement, bltullthlo la a
bituminous concrete pavement. When laid
one great difference la that bltullthlc la
waterproof and therefore absolutely sani
tary and nonrottlng, and another Is that
tha stone takes tha wear of tha traffic.
Another difference la that, while practically
aa smooth aa asphalt, it la not slippery In
wet weather and it has not the ringing
noise given out by asphalt pavements,
being aa nearly altogether noiaeleas aa any
pavement yet discovered. A number of
property owners who have seen It In the
eaat and to whom has been' explained the
bltullthlc pavement are said to ba ready
to sign petitions."

ONE APPOINTEE PAIS OF CONFIRMATION
Keeisky Speaks His Mlaa aa th
Tesle Before Proceeding?
with Baslnesa.
Th naming of two members of the
Board of Review waa the, feature of last
night's council meeting. After half an
hour's talk th matter ia still unsettled.
When It came to naming the appointees
City Treasurer Howe submitted the name
of John F. Schults. This appointment was
confirmed by the four members present,
O'Connor and Broderlck being absent. Then
It cam the mayor's turn to name a man
and he submitted th nam ef Frank
Plvonka. Adkln and 8ml th voted for
Plvonka and Queenan and Welsh opposed
th confirmation, thus making a tie vote.
As th charter specifically provides that
then appointments must be confirmed by
a majority of the council, the mayor did
not have the deciding vote.
Befor letting th matter rest the mayor
spoke his mind to th council. He said:
Plvonka goes or no on goes. I have been
bothered about thla appointment for ten
days and I want it over with. The cor
porations are watching every move that la
mad and I want a board that will see
to it that th taxes are fairly equalised.
a board that will not be dominated by the
corporations."
In reply to th mayor's remarks Welsh
aald that he had nothing against Mr.
Plvonka except that he did not speak Eng
lish well enough to be understood, and that
this would doubtless set ss a detriment
to his serving; for ten days on the board.
With a parting shot at the council, to
the effect that he was tired of the whole
deal and was satisfied that someone was
trying to put up a Job, so aa to reduce the
corporation taxes, the mayor called for
the next order of business and no attempt
was made to substitute another name.
There will be another meeting of the coun
cil Friday night, when it is expected that
the matter will come up again. -
In making a report on motions for ths
laying of crosswalks in different parts of
the city, Welsh stated that there was no
money on hand for the purpose and the
laying of walks would have to be deferred
until the 19T4 levy was available.

WAITS POLITICAL SPARK
Britain Prepares for Bio; Fight Over
Chamberlain's Anti-Free
Trade Proposals.
LONDON. June I. The Interest In th
proceedings of Parliament tonight waa en
tirely secondary to that ahown In the lobby
discussions regarding the prospects ot t
finance debate, which takes place tomor
row. The appropriation for the postal ser
vlcs was passed with only a small at
tendance in the house, sttention centering
on Mr. Chaplin's amendment to the finance
bill, opposing the remission ot the tax on
wheat, which will be discussed tomorrow.
Much uncertainty still prevails aa to
whether th government will permit any
extended discussion on Its general finan
cial program and It Is thought likely
the debate will be closely limited to the
wheat tax. It la understood that Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach intenda to speak to
morrow, probably following Sir Henry
Campbeil-Bannerman.
Though there was little tangible ss to
ths sttltuda of ths numerous silent mem
bers of ths cabinet towards ths colonial
secretary's daring proposal a Mr. Cham
berlain has certainly succeeded In arot's-
ing a strong opposition among th work-ins-men.

bat no steps hsve hitherto been taken to
appoint hia successor, because there wa
no prospect of a general election. Captain
Wells has shown great talent for organisa

There la no doubt that the situation is
extremely tense. A kinds of rumors srs
afloat. One, which many are inclined to
credit, la that Mr. Chamberlain contem

would willingly precipitate a crisis before

Rome Decidea oa Experiment.
ROME. June S. Th reports from th
Spanish friars In ths Philippine Islands and
from tha former Spanish bishops regarding

SIXTEENTH STREET PAVEMENT
Councilman Heye Thinks It Bheald
Be Condemned aad Street Closed
Temporarily.
Councilman Hoye announced yesterday
morning a plan to force the repavlng of Six
teenth street between Douglas snd Cum
ing st the expense of the shotting property
owners. "I think the council should con
demn the street where It Is In such bad
condition snd close it up temporarily," said
tha councilman from the Second. "ThO
asphalt is so bad that thla could be dosM
with perfect propriety. It was put down
twenty years ago and was the first paving
of the kind In Omaha. In the Intervening
time It has been repaired many times and
haa never coat the abutting property own
ers on penny, being paid for by th city
at large out of the street repair fund.
There 1 no use sinking sny more money in
th old pavement, a It will come ui
dilapidated every year.
"Th property owners slong Sixteenth,
between Douglas snd Cuming, are mostly
nonresidents and are deriving profit of
from 20 to SO per cent on the money In
vested. They get the benefit, a the traffic
make Sixteenth street sn important one.
Therefore they should be compelled to
sign ths required ietltlon for repavlng. I
am getting figures together snd trying t i
ascertain what tha people think at out it.
If the sentiment favoring my views Is
sufficiently strong I will Introduce such s
resolution as I hav mentioned and have
little doubt that It will pass th council.
"go far aa th other streets srs con
cerned, I think they should be repaired
with money from th regular fund, which
Is large enough thi year to put them all
In good condition."
