Information that the Board of Appraisers
111 require for fixing the value of the
water works In order that the city may
acquire It waa outlined yesterday by the
Board of Engineers at the city hall. A
deeded difference of opinion as to whether
the Inventory of the plant should be made
by an employe of the corporation or by an
expert appointed by the board waa
developed. Certain personal matters were
brought up by City Attorney Wright. The
board declined to rule on the question of
making the Inventory. All Information
demanded. It waa stated.' should be for the
entire plant and not alone that embraced
by the city limits of Omaha or the pumping
station at Florence.
When the board began to transact busl
neaa a formal manner about 10 o'clock an
array of officers and lawyers waa present

Wright. City Engineer Rosewater, Chair

to represent the city". President Woodhury
of the water company had come out from
New Tork and with him was Howard Mans,
field., the general counsel of the concern,
whose headquarters are also at New Tork.
Attorneys Woolworth, Hall. MeColloch and
McHugh were there to look after the cor
poration's Interests and they were rein
forced by General Manager Fairfield and
Superintendent Hunt.

At the beginning of the sitting Manager
Fairfield submitted detailed maps and
schedules of the plpe lines, together with
the sixes of the mains and pipes. The I
Plata are drawn on a two-Inch scale and

from Florence to South Omaha
Appraiser Alvord said it was of great Im
portance to have Information concerning
the age of the plpea. ,
The board requested that the city furnish
a map ef paving, both as to extent and
character, and Engineer Rosewater replied
that he would prepare auch a plat He
had furnished one of this kind to the
water company only a short time ago.
Attorney Wright Inquired aa to what In
vestigation the board doeired to make
regarding the physical condition of the
mains. Chairman Mead asked whether any
agreement had been reached as to the
excavations and If the city or the water
company is to bear the expense after the
board has designated the points, or whether
the board la expected to take the necessary
atepe.
Dlflealt Decide.
"This la a difficult question to decide."
aid Appraiser Alvord. "It will Involve con
siderable expense. The board desires all
the Information possible, but does not care
t have useless excavations made. Both
paving and piping will have to be cut out
and replaced, and the nutroer of ex
cavatlons should be limited as far aa
possible.'
Appraiser Benxenberg requested the dry
attorney to submit lists of points where ex
cavations are desired, so that the board
may use the Information,' If desired, and
Mr. Wright replied he would do so aa soon
aa data is supplied concerning the age of
the pipes. He. tasked how jnaxy excava
tions would be neoessary. and Chairman
Mead replied that it would depend upon the
reaulta of the preliminary examination and

cavations are to be made. He said he
thouaht It fair to have the expenses borne
Jointly by the corporation and the city.
Attorney Hull declared It unfair to charge
the water company for an Investigation the
city wants to tnak. but Wright said a
seller ought to be willing to show his goods.
No definite ruling was made on this point.
To Skew Weight of Flaea.
Engineer Rosewater suggeated that the
water company file Information showing
the weight of pipes In eepsrate parts of the
city. The board ordered this to be done
and requested tbe engineering department
of the city to prepnre statements relative to
the cost of opening and replacing pave
ment for water mains.
Chairman Mead. In reply to a question
from City Attorney Wright, said that the
board desired to have Information fur
nlshed regarding the street railways and
other railway systems and also of other ,
cost of duplicating the plant; also to show
the effect of electrolysis on the mains.
Conduits should be Included in this infor
mation and all data pertinent. Appraiser
Alvord stated that the water company
should give Information concerning the
makes of hydrants and valves and the
weights of special oastings. In a general
and approximate way. At thla point Chair
man Mead said:
"It may be well to understand that the
Information we are calling for should apply
not alone to Omaha, but to South Omaha,
Florence and such other territory as the
Omaha waterworks covers,"
All Iafernsatloa Wanted.
It waa stated that the board would like
to have the city furnish any Information
regarding the effects of electrolysis on the
water pi pea. It being understood that there
had been Investigations In the past on the
subject. Engineer Rosewater agreed to
hand the board a copy of his findings.
Chairman Mead asked General Manager
Fairfield what progress had been made
upon the Inventory of the overground prop
erty of the water company. Mr. Fairfield
said the company was getting the facta,
figures and profile together, but was wait
ing for expert assistance. Mr. Mead asked
what progress had been made and President
Woodbury rep'.led:
"We have been trying to get an expert
engineer to help us In the inventory, it be
ing work which the officers of the com
pany are unfamiliar with, but we have
met with difficulties In this regard.
City Attorney Wright-Can t you make up
the inventory without an expert?
President Woodbury It would be possible
to arrange a kind of Inventory, but it would
be far better for the company and much
more satisfactory to the city and the board
to have a systematic and comprehensive
schedule made, such as only an expert can
prepare.
Mr. Wright Would you object to En
gineer C. B. Burdick If he were appointed
by the board, the expenses to be borne
equally by the" city and company?
What Weald It Meaa.
Mr. Woodbury What might that Imply?
Mr. Wright It would mean that such an
appointee would be solely under the di
rection of the board and, that any Inventory
that he would prepare would be open to
examination and correction from both
sides.
Mr. Woodbury I thmk that the Inven
tory should be made by the water com
pany and the man who makes it paid by
the water company. I should be glad to
employ Mr. Burdick.
Attorney Woolworth We understand that
the members of the appraising board, mem
bers of the Water board, the city attorney
and certain others, pretending to repre
sent the cltr. objected to Mr. Burdick and
criticised our original desire to employ
him, which criticism we believe entirely
unjust.
Mr. Wright The record shows that the
city has no antipathy toward Mr. C B.
Burdick.
. Ha Objectless to Cole.
President Woodbury Do you object to Mr.
Cole or Mr. Burdick?
Mr. Wrlght-Not at all, but the hiring of

either would put one member of this board
In an Indelicate position. Do you object
to the employment of either man under the
Jurisdiction of the beard?
Judfr Woolworth We certainly do.
In reply to questions Appraiser Alvord
said that in some cases It had been custo
mary for both sides to the controversy to
each appoint a man to make the Inventory.
Attorney Wright said he waa willing to
take this course, but Judge Woolworth ob
jected. Mr. Wright asked him If he would
permit Inspection of the company's books
on behalf of the city and the lawyer on
the other sldi said he would make no agree
ment at the time and In that Indefinite way.
Chairman Mead, after a consultation of
the board, stated Its position aa follows;
The Board feels that Its rights In the mat
ter are simply those delegated to It by the
parties cf the appraisal and that naturally
fall to It from the character of Its duties
and th.t ,t bU) no rnt t0 .pDolnt a Ttpn
sentative to make an Inventory of the prop
erty to be appraiaed unless It should be on
mutual consent of both parties to the ap
praisal." ,
Weald FaelHtate Mattero. s
City Attorney Wright asked if the board
did not think It had a right to make the
appraisal Itself, and Chairman Mead said:
'If the inventory is not made after a
reasonable time we can, of course, make
such an Inventory aa is necessary."
Mr. V." right suggested that It would fa
cilitate matters to have two men employed
for the purpose, but Judge Woolworth said
this would lead only to further complica
tion. Attorney Wright said:
"The Inventory ought to be made
speedily, and if this is not done the
board should compel a showing of the
books and make It themselves. Evidently
Something of the kind will be necessary to
get an Inventory."
President Woodbury said:
"There has been no attempt to keep the
inventory back. We have tried to get it
done in the best possible manner and in
the quickest possible way. Expert knowl
edge is necessary to reach a clear under
standing of the things that go to make up
such a large piant as this one. The city
had no right to call for the naming of our
appraiser until after September 4, and yet
we cheerfully named our man three months
In advance.-- An inventory of the pipe line
has been submitted twenty-three dsys after
It waa requested. I don't think there Is
any occasion for the slurs cast by At
torney . Wright." The board adjourned
until October 19 to meet here and begin
preliminary examinations of the pipes.
CHILD IN CARE OF POLICE
Little Girl Deserted fey Foster

Mother.
Deserted by her foster father, alone In
the world as far aa can be learned at police
headquarters, little Berth Blue, a timid but
brave little girl, who says she is years
old. awaits some disposition at the "hands
of the police. A year ago Bertha lived
with her mother, who then waa working In
Council Bluffs. She was turned over to the
Blue family at their request, as they were
passing through Council Bluffs in a prairie
schooner, bound for the western plains.
The Blues went only as far as Lincoln and
took up a residence there. After living a
year there they found that life together
was no longer to their liking and Mr. Blue
brought little Bertha to Omaha Sunday to
try and find her mother. Not succeeding
he sent Bertha over to Council Bluffs alone
to hunt her. The little one failed, but
found her way back to the Union station,
and after sitting there for the entire day
without food, patiently awaiting the return
of the man who has evidently deserted her.
waa taken In charge by the police; "What
will become of little Bertha the matron,
who has her in charge, is not prepared to
say. An effort Will be made to locate her
mother, and if she Is not found the little
one will be turned over to some charitable
Institute.

The passenger department of the Rock
Island, has issued orders to resume the old
rites from points between BL Paul and
Chicago. This does not affect the rate
between Chicago and the Twin cities, how
ever. The Rock Island uses the St. Paul's
line to complete the north end of Its Albert
Lea route, and these towns affected are
located on this route. This makes a rate
of HI. 50 from Intermediate points, while the
rate from the Twin cities, a further dis
tance, is only SS. The general talk ln rail
road circles is that this will be brought
before the interstate commission if the
Rock Ialand refuses to cancel thla IS rata.

days of retreat and she took her vows In
the chapter before breakfast. . When she
signed the vow it was in a refectory at th
request of the mother superior and after
she had written her signature the mother
said to her, "You ar now a child of the
order and will be taken care of for life."
She said that one day Mother Burke told '
ber that the superior in Paris had ordered
here to go to Canada and she was met In
London by Mother Superior Sheridan, who
placed her under her vow of obedlenaa,
something that had nerer happened before).
She went to Canada In company with
some members of th Choir RellKleus and
she waa requested not to mention the fact
to anyone, for the members of this order
were disgraced if they are toend In the
company of a common lay sister. She waa
head cook here until the claim of lnaanity
was formed and then, according to tur
testimony, she was locked In a room.
Things went front bad to worse and tba
gas was turned off. Mis Archer testified
that she waa taken to the asylum and after
being confined there for some time the
things still continued to go wrong st the
convent, thus establishing the fact th:it she
wss not the guilty party.

filed by F. V. Betts and Hume Cronyn and
after a trial, exciting considerable Inter.ait,
tbe girt has been proven in her right mind
and tba damages asked awarded. Miss
Archer also testified that complaints had
also been lodged against her conduct while
at the convent in Omaha and )js believed
that was the reason she was sent to Canada.
