ftau Keergttela. ,
Harry B. felrrin.aii president of th coun
cil. Tuesday nliht replied to statement by
Mayor Moores. charging him with delaying
the acquirement of additional Art protec
tion. "I a ok permission," h aald, "to reply to
the mayor' malicious attack on the coun
cil, and particularly on the president of the
council, lie aald. I believe, that If It mere
not for delays by the council In purchualng
a, metropolitan flra enaine the ThanltMivimr
day cataatrophe would not have happened
ana no firemen killed."
Zimman admitted lie always had taken
lellght In Opposing the mayor's "net mouu-
area," particularly thoae relating to the fire
nu pouce department, because, up to the
.nductlon of the preaent Board Of Fire and
1'ollre 1 ommlftsioners. the mivnr hurl
erclsed arbitrary and complete control over
itn departments. He aald that the board
a absolutely controlled tiv th mirnrinit
that any policeman or fireman who had
'ha.ra.es against him or grievance to prefer
must nrsl ee his honor And "square things"
with him before ha could have a trial. At
one time, Zimman asserted,' the mayor
went ao rar as to employ sixteen policemen,
have them Walk bests for two weeka and
rder uniform before the other members of
the board were awara of It
A in rVi. angina house site at Eleventh
nd sacKson streets, the president said the
mayor had entered Into a contract with W.
B. Mlekla for the purchase of the lot for
115,000, although tinder the law his honor
had no right to make any kind of a con
tract without the authority of the council.
"When this contract waa signed," Zim
man continued, "the mayor went to the city
treasurer office and without ny au
thority whatever, took 1.000 In cash from
the drawer and paid It to fcflekle to bind
the bargain. In return he left an I O U
signed by the mayor and five councllmen.
I fought the payment of the balance en the
ground that the mayor's acts were Illegal
and that the price of the ground wa ex
cessive. I believed wo could buy as much
ground in as good a location for lea money.
The opposition caused several propositi to
he sent In, one for a lot next to the presetit
sit for $7,600; another diagonally acros the
treet for $10,000 and one from thev school
board for a lot at Ninth and HowaroY The
mayor refused to listen to argument, i
ucreeded In defeating the payment of part
ef the balance four month.
"I argued at that time that If we bought
a cheaper lot we could use the balance of
the money for an engine and hose cart,
if the mayor 1 right In sayliur that th
fir could have heen prevented by more
npparatu h take a stand against hi
own action. , He ha simply tried to make
political capital out of the late fire."
Attacks Mayor' AapUatloii.
Zlfciman Insinuated that th mayor I a
candidal for congress and desires to In
crease his popularity. ir attacked hi
general administration, asking what bene
ficial projects th mayor had ever advo
cated aside from the fire and police de
partments, and declaring that hi mes
sage wer empty save for laudation of
th department and a word abou munlo
Ipal ownership, which Zimman character
lied a "grandstand plays." n added that
,ln, the. past it .had been part of Mayor
Moore' bargain, with the public service
corporation to permit thorn to appoint
th Board Of Tax Revlasr. and that .they
had done this tip to th time of the'suo-
eessrui ngnt on publlo utility taxation.
Th president aald h opposed the pur
clmse of a metropolitan pre engine with
out competition becaus a representative of
the Nott company had been shut out, th
mayor telling him that th engine matter
had been settled and that he had no time
to talk to him.
"The mayor simply say to on manu
facturer, 'You 'have the best goods; all
other manufacturer stay away.' The cor.
rect method I to ,invlt competition and
secure th beat good for th least money,"
aid Zimman. Zimman finished by eaylng
that even though to council had approved
th purchase of a metropolitan engine It
Would not be built until January or Febru
ary. II added that he thought every
councilman and every person In the city,
(or that matter, felt a much regret over
th death of the firemen a th mayor.
There were no firework. Zimman mad
hi statement without excitement of any
kind. Mayor Moore waa no; present. At
the end of the meeting the council ad
journed until I o'clock Friday afternoon,
when a memorial meeting for the dead fire
men will be held. The program will b
prepared n the meantime and announoed.
Mayor Moo res vetoed a bill of $840 from
th Nebraska Bjtullthlo company for uae
of It asphalt plant in repairing atreet.
and th council auatalned th action. Th
mayor said th charge of $31 a day for th
plant I outrageous. Figuring the valu of
th plant at $11,000, 10 per cent Interact, IS
per eent for depreciation, $120 for Insurance
and $240 for taxee, he found that the total
would b $3, W0, or $9 21 a day. However,
the message went on to say, the valuation
of th plant wa returned to the tax de
partment at $MM, which' would make a
fair return on the Investment only $s a
day,
John Grant, manager of the company, has
tated that at the time of the assessment
th plant wa not complete, further that
It meant an outlay of 115,000, for which
he ha bill to show. Councilman Hoy
aald that while he thought some compensa
tion due for the use of the plant, he
deemed $3$ a day excessive.

There's not much oil in

Coroner's Jorj Accuse ifioe 0. Winn of
Willful Murder.
STORY OF WITNESSES TO THE CRIME
Victim Wa Rahi( Away from k
Arrased, Who Followed aad Fired
but Once, Killing His Mais
Instantly.
Coroner Bralley held aa Inquest Tuesday
afternoon over the remains of Dan Cashln.
At the conclusion of th testimony the Jury
brought In the following verdict: "Dan
Cashin came to his death on November 2,
In the City of South Omaha, Douglna
county, Neb., from a gunshot wound fired
from a revolver In the hands of Mace O.
Winn with murderous Intent, and we be
lieve that It was premeditated."
Till verdict In signed by Jurors Frank
E. Jones, O. K. Bruce, John Troutan, J. D.
Bennett, John Graham and Nate John
son. The Inquest was held In the council cham
ber, which wo crowded with colored folks
during the taking of testimony. County
Attorney English and Assistant County At
torney Montgomery represented the state.
Attorney J. M. Macfarland and Henry C.
Murphy were present and represented
Winn, who sat between hi attorneys dur
ing the hearing.
John Reaves, colored, was the flrst wit-
new. Reaves testified that he was In
Roth's saloon when Cashln and Winn wer?
there. No words passed between the meu
while In the saloon. While Cashln was
getting a bucket filled with beer, Winn re
moved his overcoat and laid It on a chair.
Cashln left the saloon first and Winn fol
lOTvd him out, closing the door behind
him.
Witness asserted that he and William
Miller were standing at a rear window
of the saloon at the time and saw both
men In the yard. An argument of some
kind took place out In the yard, but all
that witness heard waa Winn call Cdshin
liar. After this remark had been maile
winn, so me witness testified, struck at
Cashln. In order to ward off the blow
Cashin threw up his arm and Winn etruck
the bucket of beer, spilling It all over him
self. Cashin then started to run wet
through th passageway between the sa
loon and butcher shop.
Witness declared that he saw Winn draw
a revolver and start after Cashln. A mo-
ment after Winn had turned the corner
witness heard a shot.
Reave aald that after the shot Winn re
turned to the saloon, picked up hi over
coat and walked out of th yard.
No attempt was made by any of those In
the saloon to prevent Winn from escnp.
Ing. Witness then went on to detHll tho
position Cashln was found and how the
police wye notified.
William Miller, colored, who stood with
Reave at the window Was the second wit
Hens. He told practically the same story
as Reaves.
Drs. Thomas Kelly and C. E. Sapp testu
fled to having held an autopsy on the re
malne of Cashln. They dencrlled the bul
let wound and gave It as their opinion that
death was almost Instantaneous.
This closed the testimony and the jdry
retired to consider the testimony. It took
the jury only about ten minute to bring
in a verdict.
A oon a the verdict had been an
nounced Chief Brlggs handcuffed Winn and
removed him to the county Jail In Omaha
fo safe keeping, s
Mr. Cashln arrived In South Omaha
from Kansas yesterday and made arrange
ment for th f jneral. Service 'will be
held Thursday afternoon at Brewer' un

streets. Rev. Blggara of the African Meth
odist Episcopal church will officiate; In

Locating; Hydrata.
Members of the city council are having a
hard time locating the sixteen hydrant to
be placed at once, under the condition of
the new franchise ordinance. Each coun
cilman wanfs a much for hi ward a he
can get, and that I where the difficulty
come in. In the toutheast and south
west sectloiuj of the city there I an urgent
demand for city water. In fact, every sec
tion of the city Is demanding water and
the councllmen realise the necessity for
locating hydrants to th best possible ad
vantage, owing to the large number of
mall dwellings which have been erected
this year. Under the term of th contract
with th water company hydrant must
be located every 400 feet. Thl make th
matter of placing hydrant all the more
difficult. It I expected, however, that
some agreement will be reached whereby
hydrant will be satisfactorily located at
the next meeting of the council. A' the
city h th right to locate twenty hy
drant next year It may be that the entlr
thirty-alx will be located at one time, a
th preaent year I so nearly cloaed.

newing the entire body I knew of nothing which can in any way
compare with. Wine of Canlul. 1 give it my lincerett praise.
To have strong nerves and good health restored and to feel renewed vitality in the entire
system after a condition of complete collapse from overwork, was the benefit which Miss
Sparks secured from five bottles of Wine of Cardui. Could anyone make a better invest

With a bottle of Wine of Cardui in her home any woman can privately and successfully

removed from the debilitated nervous system. Then the nerves recover their normal and
healthy condition.

would give you Inestimable
