f ' .
After trying- all afternoon to hold a
special meeting six 'r&embers of the city
council were rounder up at I o'clock lart
night by City Clerk Elbourn with the
assistance of two stalwart po 'Icemen. The
meeting- wa'e for starting tne straightening
out of technical kinks In tne Plzteenth
treet repwving prore!liigi.' which hare
Mcomt exeslderably muddled -by the rail
tire to passVn ordinance formally ordering
tho street Improved, and giving the prop
erty ownera thirty days n which to des
ignate material. The spirit and letter of
the law waa carried out, but tha ordi
nance had not beYrr enacted." As a reault
tha contract and bond for the repavtng
Could not be approved and tha work begun.
though tha cold days fhat are not good for
asphalt laying ara coming on. and tha
gas company has made numerous fresh
punctures, causing a bad sme'J In what
la left of tha old street noorlng.
What Wright Thinks.
City Attorney Wright on hie return
from New York figured out that the ordi
nance designating material could be re
pealed, the missing ordinance Introduced,
the petition declaring for asphalt with
drawn, toe repealed ordinance repaased and
everything gotten in shape for action by
tha end of the. week, provided tha council
worked hard and did not stint Itself on
special meetings.
A resolution authorising the clerk to de
liver the. petition to the property owners
to enable them to reflJs it, waa adopted
at the special meeting, and a beginning
made on tha ordinance manipulation.
The scheme struck a snag la City Clerk
Elbourn that had sot altogether been re
moved last night. Mr. Elbourn politely
but firmly insisted that no petition of
tha character can be withdrawn after once
having been filed with him. Ha upheld
this view strenuously, despite declarations
from Assistant City Attorney Herd man
that the mayor and councU are masters of
the city records and can burn them If
they please. Ilr. Wright said the with
drawal would be perfectly proper. Inas
much as the law applied only to Individ
uals and not to the council and means
only such petitions upon which too council
has based action. -"
- Mayor Will Take No Cfcaaees.
Mayor Mooree thinks he will not sign tha
r solution adopted by the council purport
ing to authorise the withdrawal of tha
petition. This action relieves City Clerk
kibourn from an immediate decision as to
whether or not ha will surrender tha peti
tion, may cause delay and possibly will
prevent, tha repaying this fall.
"I am as anxious as anyone In Omaha
to have the awful condition of this street
replaced by new paving," says the mayor.
"But I must insist that every 'part of the
proceeding be gilt-edged and beyond the
attacks of the tax lawyers, who are con
stantly on the alert for irregularities that
will enable property owners to escape pay
ing the levies for special improvements. If
an error has been made that cannot be
legally made good in time for . paving this
'year, tha work must go over, no matter
bow bad the street is. The charter' ap
jpears to be squarely against the wita
4fwnl of the petition, and I think; I shall
veto the resolution.'
City Clerk Elbourn ' said: ' "I am lot
golg to do anything, until, after the reso
lutions return from the mayor. " Then 1
may issue a notice to the Sixteenth street
property owners to assemble, so t can de
liver the petition to them, as tha resolu
tion directs. .'. inasmuch as they live all
over tha United States, the task may take
some time. 1 I am not prepared, however,
to back down from the position I took,
that to one has any right (o withdraw a
petition once filed in this oflWe."

The prospect Hill Cemetery association
baa finally been empowered by Judge Sears
to sell lots in the portions of its tract from
which it was enjoined several years ago by
Jesse Lowe and other property owners.
Judge Sears modified the order some days
ago so far as tUe strip along Parker street
was concerned, and today the order dis
solving ths restraining order for the entire
cemetery was filed. The judge takes this
action because the city council has recog
nized certain tracts as . belonging to the

he found no property owners would be in

Sl'CAR RATE WAR 50 BETTER
Conference in Chicago Looking to Settle
ment of Present Disturbance.
MISSOURI RIVER JOBBERS SUFFER LOSS
Speealatloa as to Oateoaao Leads to
Dooot Coaeoraloa? the lasasedloto
Adjaslsaeot of the TarlaT
DlaTereaeea,
It is possible that the sugar rate war
will be settled. A meeting of the lines In
t rested In the controversy it being bcld la
Chicago, but the outcome is purely specu
lation. It is understood that some ot the
lines Involved In the sugar tariff war are
willing to continue the present rate of 10
cents, and some difficulty may be experi
enced In restoring harmony among the war
ring factions.
Several days ago a telegram was received
in this city from Chicago announcing that
the old rate from Chicago to Missouri river
points would be restored. At that time
the Jobbing interests In the Missouri river
district had under consideration the plan
of taking action to have tee rate question
settled in soma way satisfactory to the In
terests of the Jobbers. The move was
abandoned upon the assurance of the
Burlington that a movement was on foot
to discontinue the 10-cent rate after the
28th of this month. The hope that a settle
ment of the difficulties will be reached Is
not so bright as it waa several days sgo.
The tariffs on sugar have been disturbed
for several months, but the fight reached
a climax two weeks ago, when the Mallory
steamship lines began to slash the rate
The southern lines between Bt Louis and
the gulf were forced to follow suit snd put
in a 20-cent rate to protect themselves
against the roads working In. conjunction
with the Msllory lines. This move forced
the eastern lines into the fight and the rats
of 10 cents per hundred from Chicago to
Missouri liver points was the result It
was believed that sugar tariffs had reached
their lowest levels for both the railroads
and the affected jobbers began to look for
some means of relief.
Jobbing houses which were caught with
a supply of sugar on hand were forced to
sell at a loss amounting to ITS per car. This
was the situation when word was received
that the rate was to be restored. Now
there is a prospect that the rate will go
still lower, and ths western sugar market
lr uncertain for this reason. The meeting
at Chicago means a settlement of the dis
turhed rates until next season or an In
definite continuation' of the tariff troubles.
Rata Along the Barllnartoa.
According to the Burlington weekly crop
report rain Is being experienced in plenty
on the branches of the road. In all parts
of the Alliance and Sterling divisions of
the Wyoming district the precipitation has
been quite heavy during the week, an aver
age of one-half an inch of rain having
fallen. A similar rainfall Is recorded at
Upton. Felix. Gillette, Crow Agency and
other joints on the Sheridan division.
Ranse cattle are reported in good condi
tion and the shipments of sheep and stock
are heavy and vwill continue large for the
next thirty days..
RATE WAR SHOWS NO CHANGE
Exewrsloa to Mianespolls Staada
Jest Where It Did oa
Sasday,
Cp to a late hour this afternoon there
was no change In the threecomered
rate war between the Omaha-Minneapolis
lines. In a metaphorical sense there is
plenty of smoke, but no blase. The Great
Western still has a banner hanging across
the sidewalk announcing a rate of M for
the round trip. The local representatives
declare that they are ready to meet any
rate made by the other companies, but
that the company aa yet has no official
notice that the rival lines have reduced the
rate to S3. ' All parties to the controversy
are resting on their oars and waiting for
the next move.
The trouble dates back to an invitation
received from the mayor of Minneapolis
inviting the Ak-8ar-Ben to visit the city.
When the Minneapolis Shriners were In the
city recently they were entertained by th
Ak-6ar-Ben and Initiated Into the mysteries
of the order. The Minneapolis people car
ried away good impressions of Omaha, and
ths mayor, who is a Shiiner, Issued the in
vitation to have the subjects of Quivers
visit his city. A railroad man said:
"The . Great Western immediately an
nounced a rate of K and invited the Ak-Sar-Ben
to make its Una the official road
upon the occasion of the visit The Invita
tion was viewed with favor at a meeting of
the Board of Governors. . The Illinois Cen
tral has a line running to Minneapolis. The
North-western has a direct line to Minne
apolis. They immediately announced thelr
lntention of making a rate of S3. It is not
a game of freeseout It is a straight busi
ness proposition. Each road Is determined
to have the business. Each road will make
a fight for It and will try to gt the busi
ness If it has to carry people there and
back for 60 cents." v ,
A representative of the Great Western
said:
'A meeting of the Ak-Sar-Ben committee
was held at noon and the situation re
mains unchanged. We have received no
official notification that the other lines have
reduced the rate to S3, but we are In this
thing to stay and we shall meet any rata
that the other roads may maks."
It waa expected tiiat something would
result before Wednesday to give definite
shape to the situation. It was said this
morning by one of the railroad representa
tives Interested In the controversy:
'Some understanding may be reached by
which the rate wiU remain at S& At the
present time the rate is for members of
ths Ak-Sar-Ben only." -
'Can a special rate be made from which
the public may be excluded?"
'A special Ak-Sar-Ben train ran be char
tered. This may be done and will make It
Impossible for those to share in the rate
who are not entitled to wear an Ak-Sar-
Ben badge. This is a point which, prob
ably. Is not generally understood by the
public. If a general rate la put into effect
for the benefit of the public, any one who
wants to mske the trip will be able to go.
The controversy has not. however, reached
that point and we won't know just what
we are going to do before Wednesday.

Edward O. Wild, special ewmtntsslonef of
the department of exploitation of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition, is an
Omaha visitor, with a view to stimulating
Interest In Nebraska dsy at the exposition,
which is fixed for October 25. While this
Is the ostensible purpose ef Commissioner
Wilde's visit he further wishes to interest
Omaha In the effort to have an Omaha day
at the exposition. He said:
"I question the expediency of having a
special dsy set spart for Omfha day, yet
I can but think that Omaha people would
profit immensely by availing of Nebraska
day as a day to exploit the beauties and
advantages of the Nebraska metropolis.
The opportunity for advertising the city is
an admirable one. A carload or two of
Omaha hustlers could go there with an
abundance of advertising material, buttons
or badges, for free distribution from Ne
braska headquarters, and the result would
be that thousands of people would be wear
ing these buttons or badges, Snd the adver
tising advantage would be manifest Other
cities have done this, and as there is a
erase there for button and badge collect
ing, there would be no difficulty in dispos
ing of many thousands of them. . I merely
offer this as a suggestion of what has been
done and can be done again. I am here
to lay the matter before your city officials
and sincerely hope to interest them ' in
the matter, as I am certain the effort
would be more than compensated by ensu
lng results.'
THIRD WARD TRUST IS BROKEN
R ee.al red 91 amber of Freeholders Tie
Longer Reside Wlthlo the
District.
Jerry MacMihon, who ss interested In
getting signatures of property owners for
liquor license applications in the Third
ward, has mads the interesting discovery
that the required number of freeholders,
thirty, do not now reside in the ward, aa
revealed by his best efforts to discover
them. He can find but twenty-four rest'
dent freeholders. Since last year four resi
dents have sold their property, one has
died and three have moved out of the
Third. MacMahon says that lawyers ad
vise him that the only way the difficulty
can be overcome to for the msyor and
council to redietrict the ward boundaries,
so as to take In resident freeholders. This
would encounter considerable opposition,
however, and the brewers may be forced
to buy a number of lots and deed them to
their saloon managers In order to get the
applications for licenses properly endorsed.

Catarrh of the Stomach.
A Pleasaat, Simple but Safe and
Effectual cure lor it
Catarrh of the stomach haa long been
considered she next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloating
sensation after eating, accompanied some
times with sour or watery risings, a forma
tion of gases, causing pressure on the
heart and lungs and difficult breathing,
headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness and
g general played out languid feeling.
There is often a loul oasis m the mouth.
coated tongue and if the interior of the
stomach could be seen tt would show a
slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obstinate
trouble la found in a - treatment which
Cannes the food to be readiliy, thoroughly
digested before it ha time to ferment and
Irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the
stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy
digestion is the one necessary thing to do
and whan normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have diaappeared.
According to Dr. llarlansou. the aafast
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Diastase,
AsepUc Pepsin, a UUe Nux, Golden Seal
and fruit acids. These tablets can now be
found at all drug stores under the name
of Stuart's Dyspepsia- Tablets and not
being a patent medicine can be used with
perfect safety and assurance that healthy
appetite and thorough digestion will fol
low their regular use alter meals.
Mr. R. 8. Workman. Chicago. IU., writes:
Catarrh is a local condition resulting
from a neglected cold In the head, whereby
the lining membrane o( the nose becomes
Inflamed and the poisonous discharge there
from passing backward into the throat
reaches tha stomach, this producing catarrh
of the stomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for ms for three years for catarrh
bf stomach without care, but today I am
the happiest of men after using MT OM
box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. I can
not find appropriate words to expresa my
good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite
and sound rest from their use.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the eafest
preparation as well as the simplest and

We Believe tht "NEBRASKA , CLOTHES"
Has Taught Men the Economy, of buying
the Best Clothing.....
fV purchase of a pood article can be extravagant, for it returns a
' greater proportion of service and satisfaction than twice it's
cost can bay in an inferior grade of goods. That Is a fact that proves
itself in every instance. Take the clothes we sell you we don't try to
Impress in yoar mind the idea of cheapness as your reason for buying.
-WE DO TALK VALUE. We got the best clothing that American ,
tailors of unusual ability are able to build, and we offer it to you at
prices that compete with those on goods that are by every comparison ,
proved inferior in style in grace in character in every detail that
is considered a point in clothes building. We want your trade. We
believe it is well earned by what we have to offer you.

TEST CASE IN TAX MATTER
City tad Union PaoiSo Will Go Into Court
Again.
SHOP SITE FURNISHES BASE OF ACTION
DlaaaTreeaaeot aa to Whea to List Tkls
Property Will Be Doteraslaed
by Salt Sooa. to Be
Commenced.
Representatives of the Vnion Pacific rail'
way and the city have arranged that a test
case will be brought to determine which la
right in the controversy as to whether the
shop grounds' should be Included as "right
of-way" and aseessed by tha State Board
of Equalisation, or as real estate, and as
sessed by the local authorities.
City Attorney Wright, Tax Commissioner
Fleming and A. W. Scribner, tax commis
sioner for the railroad, conferred together
In Mr. Wright's office yesterday morning.
Mr. Scribner quoted decisions to uphold the
contention of the corporation that it has
the right to list the ground under the shops
as right-of-way, while the two city officials
construed the revenue law to have a differ
ent meaning. '
It was finally agreed to have Com mis
sloner Fleming assess the whole property
as realty and for the railroad to. bring an
Injunction suit, either Immediately or in
time to have the case settled before the
1906 city tax levy la made. Last year the
railroad paid real estate taxes on the shop
grounds under protest and the decision is
expected to decide this contention ebto.
From ft. 000 to 15,000 city taxes are Involved
for each year.
"The value of the shop grounds, exclusive
of the buildings, which the company wants
assessed as personal property, is from
S350.000 to 1400,000." said Commissioner
Fleming. "Last year the same contention
was raised, but the return had been made
already to ' the state board under the old
revenue law and proceeded to assess the
shop grounds as real estate the same as
usual. It was understood at the conference
that every effort will be made by both sides
to expedite the case so as to have the decks
clear for the levy. The greater and more
Important matter of local assessment of
the station buildings and terminals Is not
at issue in this case. It is relatively much
smaller, but still Is worth lighting for in
the opinion of the city attorney."
COAL RATES NOT' SETTLED
Barllogtoa Still Pressing; the Korth-
westerav While St, Joseph
Galas.
One of Omaha's large retail coal mer
chants returned from Chicago this morning
and thus sums up the entire coal rate situa
tion: "Great pressure is being brought to bear
by the Burlington on ths Northwestern to
withdraw its reduced tariff sheet and ths
Burlington Is being egged on by the
Wabash to keep after the Northwestern.
The latter is in a delicate position, and
while wanting to keep its pledges with
Omaha, does not feel, like spiting Jtseif in
some other direction. The Burlington,
through pride and a desire to retain part
of Its coal rate advance, la especially active
because It understands that If the North
western stands pat a little longer the
WabasA will start the ball rolling by going
baxJt to old rates and all will have to fol
low. "In the meantime favoritism goee on at
St. Joseph. As a concession to the dealers
there, where coal rates have not advanced
the embargo of 12 a car for ' switching
charges, hsa been removed.

Pasbeart Merchants Cwaaplala that
They Are Swindled by
Satoeta Operator.
James Mllllan and John Alev pushcart
merchants on Leavenworth street, have
reached the conclusion that the quickness
of the hand may deceive the eye and the
closer you watch the less you sometimes
e. Messrs. Mllllan and Ale came to this
agreement Monday afternoon after a short
mutual sympathy meeting, followed by a
hasty trip to the police station. The bur
den of their plaint is that a stranger made
a small purchase at each stand, present
ing In each, instance a .K bill for payment.
The change in each case waa K7B. which
was paid, but both Mllllan and Ala aver
that the IS bill presented by the stranger
was by some magic process transformed
into a $1 bill. Anyway, the merchants
are out R75 each, and it is thought the
stranger ia out of town, although detec
tives are out looking for him. Meanwhile
mllllan and Ale are, looking out for men
who present them f& bills.
