In pursuance to a report from the com tnlttee on lire, water and police the five year contract had been placed on file earlier In the evening. The garbage contract was reserved until the very last, and all the ordinances on third reading hud been gotten out of the way. Hal pa I rare Action. A communication from Health Commis sioner Ralph pointed out the necessity for facilities for handling garbage and dead animals and recommended a contract 41th the City Oarbuge compttny for as short a time as could be secured.

Wilkinson, representing the Nott Fire Engine company of Minneapolis, and a new proposition that he made, the council voted to buy the "Met ropolitan" engine manufactured by the American Fire Engine company of Cincin nati. The machine will cost $5,100 on board cars, Clnclnnnatl, and was the lowest- priced engine for which bids were submitted In the regular way. Mr. Wilkinson addressed the council, say ing that he desired a competitive test with the other engine and that his people had built an engine expressly for Omaha which would be ready In two weeks. He offered to deposit 11,000, to be paid the city In case his engine lost In a competitive test or was found deficient In any way under the repre sentations made for It. The vote was E to 3 in favor of the resolution authorizing the other engine, however, and Wilkinson ad mitted himself defeated. This is the engine that the mayor has wanted and for which he contended when the council seemed to be a unit against him. The fight caused the trust to reduce the original price $400. The engine Is an extra, first-class size, next to the largest made. It will be used in the new house at Eleventh .and Jackson streets. , Time Off for the Firemen. An ordinance was Introduced requesting the Hoard of Fire and Police Commis sioners to modify and change rules and regulations of the tire department per taining to hours of the men off duty. Twenty-four hours each six days is de manded in two perloda of eighteen and six hours. Instead of twenty-four each nine days In shifts of six hours each, as is now the rule. This Is to be done, according to the ordinance, which was Introduced by Councilman Hack, so that the firemen can properly enjoy the privileges of home and for their physical, mental and moral wel fare. The ordinance was referred to a committee after being read the first and second times. Another ordinance Introduced, fathered by Councilman Back, although he declared he had placed his name on It unwittingly, makes It a mlademeanor to repaper any room without first removing paper already on the walls and placing the walls in "sani tary condition." Councilman Schroeder Introduced the or dinance desired by the Clvlo league and Mayor Moo res, which prohibits spitting on the sidewalks and Councilman Zlmman brought forth an ordinance repealing the position of superintendent of markets and creating the office of market master.

Vetoes a Frame Bnlldlna;, Mayor Moores vetoed an ordinance pro posing to exempt lot 6, block 851, at the northtnst corner of Seventeenth and Web ster streets, from the fire limits. This had been asked so that John Collins might erect two frame dwellings there. The mayor found that the lot is Ave blocks south of the north fire limits and he ruled against the concession because It would set a bad precedent and further because It would conflict with existing ordinances. The council sustained him. Assistant City Attorney Herdman re ported that the claim of former Fire Chief John Itedoll for nearly $1,100 alleged to be due him In salary, could not be enter tained by the city because It had not been filed within eighteen months after, the as serted service had been perfortned. Upon his advice Mr. Redell was left to prosecute his claim through the courts if be so de sires. . Farina; Specifications Approved. Much to the surprise of the council the Hoard of Public Works reiorted favorably on the specifications for asphalt street re pairs prepared by the city engineer. After the dty attorney had looked them over the council approved the documents. The r port of Assistant City Attorney Herdmsn advising that the 1902 specifications for new pnvlng were still available, were placed on filj and preliminary steps token toward J the pavement of several streets for which j petitions were filed a long time ago: New specifications rrom the majority members of the Board of Public Works were re ferred to the city attorney. I'lnmblna; Inspectors Report. Plumbing Inspector 1-ynch submitted the following report, which, aftsr some discus sion, was laid over for the general' com mittee meeting Monday afternoon, when all lntertotcd parlies will be asked to appear and give their version of the controversy: To the Honorable Mayor and City Coun cil: 1 herewith return the plumbing bills for the wurk on the city tire houses to your honorable body without my approval, for the following reasons: First, The bills as presented are In ex cess of the amount authorized by your honorable body. Socond, lb my estimation the work could have been done within the) limit per each house, had It been done throunh the proper official, or had I been consulted In regard to same. I have examined the bills and And that the profit on material charged Is what might be termed handsome, or outrageous, as It ranges from J to per cent profit to the contractor In charge, of the work. As to time charged for each house, 1 will slate, us a practical plumber, that if the work had been done as It should have been, the time would not have avtrsged !een, the time would not have averaged instead of eight to nine days each. 1 will state. furlh.-r. that I have seen the work on several of the tire houses and am willing to make the claim land make It f:oodl that ir tnls worn naa oeen piaeea n mv hands 1 could save the City of Omaha from $ to $r0 on the work. In my estimation th proper way to have done would have been to place the reso lutions In mv hands, and I would either have asked for bids on the work or fur nished the plumber with a copy of the r'Kobitions. wMh Instructions not to ex ceed the amount authorized, which. In my Jiu!(f ment. was Hiifhclent to complete the work on ea h houMe. I also wih to call your attention to tha fact that the charter provides for an In spector of plumbing, who nhall have hud at leant Ave years' experience us a prac tical journeyman p!um1er: and If such a man Is appninied I In-lleve him CHpahle of handling such work to better advantage to the city than an official that has been elected or appointed to care for another class of work. Ira-tlrv of the Past. It haa always been the case In the plumb ing work that la ordered for the. city that any one in charge of a certain department can order this work, and It haa been a con I N AMERICA The best rcady-to-put-on-C'lotliinjj All the very swel lest new styles for spring, at.

This work was done without consulting me In anv way; the extras were ordered without giving me an opportunity to Uook Into the condition of the work; as a mutter of fact, the whole thing was thrown Into one shop, and the city was at the mercy of this boss plumber, who was left to use his own Judgment aa to how much work he was to do or how much he could charge. As the work has been done. It may b thr.t this plumber has the right to make the price on his material, and I leave It to the person the council authorized and to. the council to say whether the bill Is correct or not. In conclusion, I wish to state that I am willing that plumbing work for the city be done and ordered by any one. as has been In the past, as I am not looking for the work. But I believe that the person ordering same should know whether tho bills for same are correct or not; and I also believe It would be a great saving to the olty to have each mrtclal take care of his own line or oustness ana ai any time when he has more than he can attend to it would be well to hire an assistant, experi enced In that certain business, to help him. under Instructions. Instead of placing the work in charge of some other official who. In turn, throws It to some one In business who makes all he can out of It. thereby making the city pay an unnecessary amount and enough to pay the salarv of an assistant three or four months. I don't mean bv this that the plumbing Inspector should have an assistant, as I fee that I can attend to the office, but It was stated on the floor of the council that I had not the time to look Into these bills. I think It would be nn Investment for the city to Kot a practical mrfn to look after the cltv's business at anv tVme when, in their iudg ment. anv particular office gets too btisv. Instead of putting the wort; that I rot capable of handling same In the city's Interest I elso wish to stnta that I will wllllnglv snpear before the council In com mittee and -p!nln wherein the city was held tip. as I neiieve tnni wnen one is com pelled to pav $2 for what they could (ret for $1 It Is a case of this kind; and T believe It would be Just as practical to send me to Insncct a steam boiler or to irsoect a brick building as It was to refer this plumb ing to the building Inspector PROSPECT HILL IMPROVERS Lively Evening gpent In Dlsrnsalna; n Kamber of Matters of I. oral Interest.

County Commissioner Connolly addressed the meeting on the bond proposition to be voted upon next Tuesday, and spoke at length in favor of the issue of the bonds. A communication was read from J. It Bryant, who la opposing the bond Issue, regretting his Inability to be present. The gist of tho communication was that the county boards, past and present, have spent more money than the law allows, and that the county affairs are In their present de plorable condition because of mismanage ment on the part of the Hoard of Com missioners. Mr. Connolly replied briefly to the letter of Mr. Bryant, and then followed a gen eral discussion of the whole matter, par ticipated In by several members.

FARMER'S END OF BUSINESS Subject Chiefly Disrnaaed by Cream-crrnen-Xo Parade Nor Ban quet, bnt Smoker. Owing to the sudden Illness of E. E. Bell of New York, who presided at Tuesday's session of the creamery men's convention, Charles Harding of the Hygela Creamery company of Omaha was called to the chair. The morning session was greeted with a largely Increased attendance, there being nearly 300 present. The proceedings were opened with the usual Empire "yell," and then 'the convention got down to deliberate business. The general topic was the farm ers' end of the creamery question. Many very interesting talks were given on the necessity of clennllness, care of cream, care of cows and . the dairy generally as being potent money-making factors to the farmer. Among those present at this session were J. A. Walker of the Blue Valley Creamery company of St. Joseph; D. W. Wlllson, edi tor of the Dairyman, of Elgin, and E. T. Meredith, editor of the Farmers' Tribune of Des Molnea. An Interesting feature In connection with the meeting was a series of Instructions In testing the quality of cream. Its acidity and other features, of which a practical demonstration was made by Charles Hard ing of Omaha. An apparatus specially de signed for these tests was used In the demonstrations. These testing machines are of different sizes and are provided for either domestic use on the farm or dairy direct, at the receiving stations, and larger sizes for the central creameries. The rain prevented the parade, much to the regret of the visitors who had made elaborate preparations for it. The pro posed banquet to have been held at the Paxton hotel tonight has been abandoned and a "smoker" hns been substituted to be held at Arcanum hall.

Notification by the city electrician to the Omaha Electric Eight and Power company that It must stand inspection fees, amounting to $336.5. for a new 1,000 K-W generator installed about a year ago, haa produced an ordinance In the council which seeks to limit the fee for motors and dynamos to $10. For years the machines of the electrio light company have been allowed to go without charges against them for inspec tion. Figuring ofi the sliding scale of prices for t it departmental Inspections, the cost wo a Id have amounted to a con siderable sum. The same condition held good with regard to the dynamos and gen erators of tha atre. ' railway company, but the new ordinance seeks to except all treet railway equipment from the neces sity of paying fees. The ordinance, which was Introduced Tuesday night. Is a long one and goes over the scale of inspection fees for all kinds of electrical work. The only changes. however, according to tha electrician, is the insertion of a maximum of $10 for dynamo and motor Inspection and the re lease of the street railway. No charges for this kind of work ever have been taxed against the traction Una anyway, ao this feature Is not considered Important fnjuat to Small Concerns. According to Electrician Mlchuelson, the maximum fee la unjust to the owners of small dynamos and motors.

"A few other concerns will be affected by tho maximum, but not many," says Mr. Mlchaelsun. "It means really that a big injustice will be worked against those who own small machines. The big cor porations will escnpe paying their Just pro portion of Inspection fees, whllo the little fellows will go right on as formerly. "Personally. I should prefer to see all fees abolished.
