FIRE AND POLICE MATTERS Board Order aa Investigation as Regards Drlaklaar Habit of Firemen. Discipline of the fire department la to be Investigated by a committee of the Fire and Police board, composed of Commis sioners Spifltlen, Thomas and McHugh. According to Commissioner Thomas, who; Introduced the resolution last night au thorising .the Inquiry, the principal ibject Is to ascertain the habits of the firemen regarding drinking and to check abus"4 believed to exlt. Aside from the Investiga tion the committee Is directed to suggest methods for Improving the condition. In dismissing Truckman George W. Week from the department after he waa found guilty of reporting for fluty while under the Influence of llquot Acting Chair man Broatch used emphatic larguaae. "Wo wish to make It ftlaln," raid ho, "that this board will not countenance in temperance In the fire department. The men are paid good wagee by the city and sober and efficient service is demanded In return. The board proposes to be very atrlct In enforcing the requirement that men must not drink to exces or must leave the department." It waa the econd time Weeka had been tried under similar chargea. William O. Flood, a man who had served flfty-elfht day on probation, was dropped after be ing found guilty of unbecoming comlWt which Involved accusation of drinking. Apparently the two cases Induced the action of tha board In demanding an In vestigation. "What's the matter with the discipline of the department?" waa aaked of Chief Baiter. "Nothing so far aa I know," he replied. In response to tha same question Com missioner Thomas replied with the single word "booxe." Charges of being drunk on duty were preferred against Patrolman William Cul len, whom. It is alleged, made an arrest without justification tha other day. Cul len pleaded guilty, but sentence was de ferred a v week. The anticipated order for the closing of No. 1 fir engine house at Fourteenth and Harney streets waa given last night, the board directing that the station which Is rented be abolished, aa aoon as the new tatlon at Eleventh and Jackson streets is completed.

McCllatock Dies from. Lockjaw Following Wonnd front Pin of Fish. J. W. McCllntock. aged about S3, mhooa home wii at 1262 South Sixteenth street, died yesterday from tetanus at Wis Mem orial hospital. Last Thursday McCllntock waa fishing and pricked on of hi finger allghtly on th An of a fish. He thought little of th wound at th time, but very soon symp toms of blood poisoning of the most viru lent nature developed. Dr. Wearoe and Dr. Pinto were railed In and had the mn taken to th hospital, but efforts to aave him were In vain.

EFFECTIVE JUST BEFORE MEN QUIT WORK Packer Deny Com -malty of Intereat, bat All, Stranaely Ennnah. Charge More Money 'for Their ! rod net. Even before the packing trades strlk was In progress the rackers began to levy tribute for carrying It on from the public. Tuesday morning notice waa served upon local butcher that price on all grade of fresh meat had been advanced 2. centa per pound. tThe etrlke began at noon.) Not withstanding that the packer deny there In any community of Interest among them the advance was strangely unanimous, all houses advancing the price almost at th same moment. The excuse offered for the advahce la that the stocks In the hands of the packer are very email and they are expected to run still lower during the strike. During the past four months, butchers say, th-3 price of beef has advanced from 4 to 8 centa per pound. Cattle that could be bought the 1st of April for 6 centa and cents cost today 10 cents per pound, and some tven higher than that. During this period the advance lit live cattle, according to the butchers, has been only about 1 cent per hundred. But It is explained that an advance In the price of beef on the hoof of 1 rent would necessi tate an advance of 2 cents In the price of dressed heif. Figuring on this baMs, it la pointed out that the advance In the price of beef during the four month should have been about 2 cent per pound Instead of 4 or 6 cent. Ample toek on Hand. Some of the larger retail dealer have stocks of fresh meat on hand sufficient to carry them through the first week of the strike, but the smaller shops only carry one or two dnya' supply and depend upon replenishing their stocks from the packers from day to day. This being tho case, It Is expected that the smaller dealers sooh will be out of business If the strike con tinues. x While the packers are claiming their stocks of meats are almost exhausted, the butchera assert such Is not the case and that the packer have been Increasing their stocks for several daya or weeks In anticipation of the strike which they knew waa almost Inevitable. All packing houses carry quite a stock of provisions at all tlmea for the reason that provisions re quire a good time In curing and there must necessarily be considerable tock In process of curing at all times, but the packers as sert that at tho present time their stocks of provisions are almost depleted and there can be but little hope of meat from that direction. Asaerts a butcher, "the butchers look upon this report like the report of shortage of fresh meats In the light of a canard." ' Flh a a Snbstltnte. When provision and fresh meat are eliminated from the Hat of edible there ap pear to be little aolace for the meat lover. There la still fish left, but this will hardly fill the bill. On the fish list there Is cod, mackerel, trout, catfish, herring, halibut and numeroua other kinds, but tha butcher will not a!low any satisfaction In the con sideration of this list, for, says he, when eveyone turns his attention to fish the supply will aoon be short and the price will advance so that the poor, at least, cannot eat It. Canned, meats are yet to be had and, the supply will probably. last a few days, but this line, too, wl'.l aoon bo exhausted, and then there is nothing in the meat line left to eat unless some other mean is found of obtaining frosh meat than through tha packing house. Some of the more enterprising butcher already have begun to figure on passing the packer by and securing their meat supply from other sources. They say they will establish slaughter houses In the sub urbs and send buyer out Into the country to buy cattle for them and do their own killing rather than let their trade suffer for fresh meat. This action on the part of the butchera ia expected to meet with strong opposition from the packers who, of course, will have their strength with which to fight their employe very much crippled by the butchers taking the business out of their hands and carrying it on them selves. But notwithstanding the expected fight which will be made by the packers tho larger butchers signify their intention of doing their own killing. OPPOSITION J0 BOULEVARD Casper K. Yost and Other Protest to Catting Into tho Joslyn Castle Gronnd. Opposition that may prevent th running of a driveway through th Joslyn ground at Thirty-ninth and Davenport street ha been manifested to members of the city council and at the city Jiall It I declared now that tha ordinance Introduced by Councilman Nicholson at th last meeting will fall to pass. Casper E. Yost, president of th Nebraska Telephone company, la leading th fight againit the proposed Jutting up of the Joslyn ground. While aom of th other adjacent property owner favor putting the roadway through, simply to punish Mr. Joslyn for closing up his castle and leaving Omaha, other are Just aa firm In objecting to tha project which they say will merely mar the beautiful grounda that now exist and not do anyone any par ticular good, aa only a few feet in th Junotlon of Thirty-ninth atreet with Forti eth could be saved. CURFEW BLOWS FOR THE BOYS Polleo Mak No Arrests, bat Warn m Nnmber to Oo to Their Home. From Monday the enforcement of the curfew ordinance commenced. At o'clock th whistle of the Union Paclflo shops and the smelters blew as th signal for a gen eral stampede of little boys.

' v The next query asked was regarding th connection, if any, between the abrasions of the man's neck and the eight 'feet of rope he had when captured.) The rope had a noose. Zeller said, he h,ad tried to hang himself, but the knot slipped, in, some man ner and he failed to carry out his effort at self-destruction. The marks' "on' the neck were caused entirely, he said, by the rope. The inquest over the remains of Zeller' victim will be held Wednesday morning at t o'clock. A. B.
