TRACKAGE IX THE EAST END
Real Ertate Exchange Takes Up the Hatter
for Tentative Debate.

If Cnaacll Will Only Oraitt t
f Alle o the
R a d a.
fli" K-al Estate uxtimnge discussed ln-
formally the question of glvInK more lib
eral (.onceesioliB to railways for trackage
In tiie eastern part of the city. The ex
change look up informally Senator Mil
lard pr.jp eitlon for using property north
of Ixiiiglas atreet and east of Twelfth
street by granting more privileges to the
railroads, and allowing them to extend
their tracka an fur west as Twelfth, prin
cipally in. I he alley, but possibly also the
right to use the streets. The question of
trackage facilities south of Farnam also
came up, but It was the general oplilloii
Te ith atreet, with Its heavy trnfllc and its
car service, can not be crossed by these
rpur trackr.. North of Douglas the sentl
Mrnt srtms to be favorable to a more
liberal policy regarding trackage, some of
tho real eatate men believing such a course
would clean up a large tract, principally
used now for questionable purposes, and
Klve much desired trackage property for
manufacturers and jobbers. The exchange
did not get na far aa a vote on the mat
ter, but. a preponderance of the testimony
given seemed to be In fuvor of the coun
cil granting some extension of trackage in
.his section under reasonable restrictions.
An objection was raised that the alleys are
too narrow for two tracks and the con
tinual moving of cars In order to nerve the
w .tern end of the spurs would cause a
great annoyance to property users further
raat. Most of the real estate men present
believe J it better for the owners to huve
their ptxperty used In this way and mar
keted than to have It lie dormant, as It
has now for years. , '
The real estate men for a change did
not discuss taxes, but told each other
a few checrlnj Instances of advancement
i.-ud In certain sections during the year.
A good many Instances were Introduced
where pro.ierty has chunged hands two or
three times during the year at an ad
vance each time. This Is a new phase of
the land market In Omaha.
It was announced that W. H. Green
will be back In Omaha next week and at
tend the next meeting of the exchange.
Ho left Onufia more than a year ago
to take charge of a Mexican plantation
company, but now writes he has closed
out his connections there and will return
to this city to live.
ATTORNEYS FOR WATER BOARD
Joba I,. Webster and Carl C. Wright
to Defend in the Injunc
tion Suit.
Member CongUon has employed John I.
Webster and Carl VC. Wright to defend
the. case for the water board. The three
lawyers spent almost the whole of yester
day forenoon in conference, but had no
statement to give out as to the course to
be followed In the federal court. As the
case ia set foi hearing Saturday morning,
the preparations cannot be delayed.
"I selected Mr. Wright," said Mr. Cong
don, "because he has beccme thoroughly
familiar, with the whole water works
questions and the new laws regarding it
by reason of the fact that the city was
represented by him through the appraise
ment proceedirfgs, of which he had entire
cnarge. .remaps no other man in the
city is so well informed and'up to ante
on the questions Involved aa Mr. Wright.
Mr. Webster was chosen for the reason
tnat na was counsel for the city In the
case wherein the city sought to compel
the forfeiture of the franchise and in
omer important water works litigation as
well.
"The, question now before the court Is
imply wnetner the water board or the
city has the right to change the rates
originally established by ordinance. Pre
suming we win and the Injunction is de.
nled, a large work still confronts us in
making rates thut tire fair both to con
sumers and the water . company. Should
tha latter object to the reductions, an
other cose In court will be the result, this
time to determine the reasonableness of
the proposed rates. In anyv event the
water board has no path of ease and idle
ness before It.
"This case la regarded as so vitally
Important by the members of the board
that It was agreed that tne very best legal
talent available should be secured to pro
tect Its rights aa conferred by law. If
the temporary restraining order had not
been served Tuesday afternoon no action
would have been taken to reduce the wa
ter rates. We had met simply to discuss
the matter further, and to try to get a
step nearer adopting a resolution regard
ing rates. But the subject itself 1b so
difficult and Intricate that we wish to
proceed slowly and ao nothing until we
are sure we are right."'

paper A a; tain. After Xext Month.
Before the state sonata Investigating;
committee at Lincoln the other night for
mer Congressman Hitchcock denied that he
was either proprietor, editor or general
manager of the World-Herald, but, on the
contrary, was simply a shareholder In the
World Publishing company, president of
that corporation and business manager for
the newspapr. After next month, how
ever, he says, he would have to answer
these (jue8tluns differently.
"Have you made definite arrangements
for the succession to Mr. Metcalfe after
his retirement?" was asked Mr. Hitchcock.
"I shall become editor of the paper my
self," was the reply. "I expect to do the
principal editorial work and liHve charge
of it all. I shall have a new assistant In i
the person of Harvey E. Newbranch, who !
Is now our legislative correspondent.
Other than that the editorial staff will re- j
main unchanged by Mr. Metcalfe's de
