Buatneaa men In the city are considering
the advisability of holding a meeting and
expressing their opinion through a set of
resolutions at the action of the committee
on supplies of the Board of Education In
purchasing everything possible from mer
chants In other cities. The supply com
mittee of the board la composed of Morrill,
Murphy and Bock. It Is openly asserted
that the members of this committee have
Ignored local dealers and gone elsewhere
snd madepurchaes at' prices higher than
those quoted here. This committee buys
chemicals for the laboratory department of
the-high school, ' stationery for the pupils
and other supplies of less Importance. Of
late nearly If not all of the purchases have
been made outside of the city, even after
prices from local merchants hare been sub
mitted. A comparison In a number of cases
shows that local dealer quoted practically
the same figures that other dealers did and
la some Instances lower. ' Morrill, the chair
man of the supply committee. Is charged
by local merchants with having first se
cured prices here and then going elsewhere
and quoting South Omaha prices. '
When school books are purchased no bids
are required, as there seems to be an un
derstanding of some sort with the book
concerns, but when It comes to purchasing
school seats and desks bids are advertised
for. In the spring Murphy and Loechner
retire from the board and the people' will
vote on only one new member, so ' that
there la little hops, say the . merchants, of
changing the present condition of affalra
unless a revision of the present committees
Is made. This matter of 'purchasing -supplies
Is being looked Into and will, so.it Is
stated, be brought to the attention of the
rub,,obe,r.

Kirk Getting Better.
Thomas Kirk, who was shot by J.. W.
Nice, a senlwlrh man, Thursday' morning
early, Is getting along nicely at the South
Omaha hospital. It appears that his wound
Is not nearly as dangerous as first sup
posed. Last night Chief Brlggs said, he
understood that Kirk would not swear ; to
a complaint against Nice.
The police say that. Nice has been. pes
tered a great deal lately by toughs,, and
frequently he has been abused and beaten
by those who first procure sandwiches and
then decline to pay.' Nice Is still detained
at police headquarters on the charge of
being drunk and shooting with Intent to
kill. The prisoner was thoroughly sober
yesterday and regretted that he had used
his revolver so freely, but gave as his
reason that he waa tinder ths Influence of
liquor and really did not know what be
doing. I.

RESCIND FOUL STRIKE RULE
American Leagat Takes Artie
la
Opposition t that ef the
Rational.
CHICAGO, Dec. 17. Owners of the Amer
ican Base Ball league In annual meeting
today rescinded the foul strike rule adopted
last year as an experiment and declared
In favor of a schedule of 164 games In order
to meet the extension of the National
league schedule. Tbe playing season will
open on April 16.
The National league recently declared In
favor of the foul strike rule and It la the
general belief that trouble will be experi
enced before a aubstitute rule satisfactory
to both leagues can be agreed on. The
suggestion today- of President Shlbe of
Philadelphia that only the first foul ' be
called a strike and that the other fouls
be treated as they used to be before the
adoption of the foul strike rule last year,
seemed to meet the approval of most of the
owners.
The affairs of the Pacific Coast league
came up for discussion during the meeting,
but the question was referred to President
Johnson, who was given power to act lor
the American league In any attempt that
might be made to get the Independent
league on the coast to Join with tbe organ
isations east of the Rocky mountains.
Another session will be held tomorrow
when severer other subjects will be taken
tup. . . '
That the American league Is still In
favor of peace, despite Its-differences with
the National league, was shown by the
fact that at today's session the action of
the American league committee on the na
tional agreement was formally approved
and ratified. The meeting decided on the
use of players' contract, uniform with
that adopted at the National league meet
ing. This will make It necessary for a
player to report two weeks earlier for
spring training or be subject to a $110
fine.' President Johnson said tonight that
the Washington club ownership had been
adjusted and intimated that at tomorrow's
sssslon details would be given to the pub
