Feb. 16. (Special V Judge Button of Omaha opened up the Feb ruary term of district court here yester day. There Is but one criminal case, six teen law caaas and forty equity case. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Feb.' 16. (Special.) The con stitutionality of the law relating to gam bling Is now questioned and had the mat ter been taken up before it Is not unlikely that those who have served terms In the penitentiary upon a gambling charge would have been spared that humiliation and suffering. The law making gambling a penitentiary offense was an amendment passed by the legislature of 1887, the origi nal law providing a penalty or a fine or Imprisonment In the county Jail. Inasmuch as the amendment was passed through both houses of the legislature and signed by the governor under three distinct titles with absolutely no record of how the titles became changed, certainly gives the enemies of the law good grounds for believing that their contention that the law Is Invalid is correct. At present there are no prisoners In the penitentiary convicted upon a charge of gambling, though since the adoption of the amendment there have been several who have served sentences. The sections amended are 214 snd 215 of the criminal code. The first section relating to gambling and the second section relates to the keeping of gambling tables and de vices. The penalty for the former being a fine of not to exceed 1100 or Imprisonment in the county Jail not to exceed ninety days. In the discretion of the court. The penalty for the latter being a fine of not less than tnO or more than $100. The legislature of 1887 amended these two sections, making the penalty a fine of not lees than $300 or not to exceed $500 or Im prisonment In the penitentiary for a period not to exceed two years. The bill by which thl.i law was amended was known as senate file No. 98 of the session of 1887, It being Introduced under the title of "An act to amend sections 214 and 21Bpf the criminal code." T"nd,er this title It was read three times and passed by the senate. It was read the first and second times In the house under the title of "An act to amend seC' tlons 214 and 216 of the criminal codo and to provtue ror tne recovery or money or other property lost In gambling." How this change of title came about is not dis closed by either the house or senate Jour nals. It was then read the third time and passed In the house under Its original title. It was then signed by the speaker of the house and president of the senate and ap prjved by the governor under the title An act to amend sections 214 and 215 of the criminal code and to provide for the recovery of money or other property lost In gambling, and to repeal said original sections." The house or senate Journals ao not aisciose now mis last clause waa added to the title. Tho law as It now ap pears on file in the secretary's office has this latter title. Answers la Railroad Case. C. C. Wright and W. H. Herdman, at torneys for the city council of Omha, which George T. Morton, William O. Vre and Fred D. Wead want the Bupreme court to compel to reconvene as a board of equal lxatlnn for the purpose of. Increasing the assessment of railroad property In Omaha today filed an answer to the alternative writ of mandamus Uu(l by the court sev eral days ago. : .' v . The answer sets forth that the council, aa a board of equalization, considered the fair cash value of all property In Omaha except the railroads, ad that on thla property the council took the returns of the State Board of Equalization, and as these returns were supposed to be one fifth of the cash value, the council multi plied the figures by five, with this result as a cash value for all the railroad property In Omaha: Vnlon Pacific, $341,700; Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha, $109,725; Omaha Southwestern, If 5,075; Omaha & North Platte, $r,550. The defendants say they have no knowl edge of the actual cash value of the rail road property but aa the laws require them to take the returns of the State Board of Equalization, they have done their duty, and that the allegations do not show facts sufficient to entitle the complainants to a right to a hearing before the board. Jales Lombard a Lawyer. Th, voice that Omaha has com to recog nize most readily when its cadence Is measured In "A Child of the King" may bo heard soon lifted In appeal to Justice or in defense of legal belief, for Jules Lum burd was this morning admitted to prac tice law In the state of Nebraska a pri vilege he gained a first time In Illinois, years ago. The announcement ia perhaps a surprise to Omahans. as th. white-haired old singer has long been so thoroughly and wholly identified with railroads and music, but It Is not stated that he will change now the tenure of his every-day life. Rather, the ceremony performed before the supreme court this morning with such great solemnity appears to have been the result of a common desire among his law yer friends to have . him formally made one of them. Mr. Lumbard'a own feeling In the matter ia best evidenced by hla very emphatic remark to Matthew Gerlng of Plattsmouth and Attorney Arthur E. Wakeley In the lobby of the Lindell hotel last night They were mentioning the prospective ceremony and expressed a re gret that in the presence of the august tribunal it wouldn't do to insist, as every body everywhere else always insists, that Mr. Lumbard conclude the affair by singing of one certain "Muggle." The singer gravely replied: "It la kind of you in all sincerity that I would rather have that word 'attorney' written after my name than be the best singer In the world." Attorney l.ysle Abbott felt absolutely sure of Enright's guilt, and since the man bss been In the penitentiary Mr. Abbott has done considerable Investigating to find out, though so far without success. Governor Savage at one time stated that he would pardon Enrlght If Mr. Abbott and Judge Baker would sign the application. Anawera Insaraace Case. In the rase wherein the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance company Is contest ing the right of the city of Omaha to col lect a 2 per cent premium tax for municipal purposes the city today filed a demurrer, setting forth that the allegations did not constitute a cause of action. A demurrer was also filed in the rasa of the Provident Life association against the city of Omaha. Flags at Half Mast. As an expression of sorrow at the death of Senator M. A. Hanna, the flag over the state house Is flying at half-mast today, as well as the flags on other public and private buildings in the city.
