BreckenrldKn A Klnsler, attor neys for William F. Gooden. which will have the effect of bringing to a head at an early date th troubles which have raised tip hostile faction In the camp of the Royal Highlander!!, a Scottish fraternal and beneficial order having headquartcfa In Nebraska, with rnstles In many other eta ten. These Internal rTisrnslons In the order bave had more or lens publicity during the last few months. Trie culmination, appar ently, came when the executive committee attempted to remove from office the chief medical director of the organization. Dr. William F. Oooden of Denver. The doctor started a fight which has brought the order and Its affairs Into court before now, but the present suit takes the place of a pre vious ant Ion and will open up the whole affair. The defendants In the present stilt are the Royal Highlanders. William F. Sharp, most Illustrious protector, president; Frank J.I Sharp, chief secretary; Augustus E. Slek- . man. chief treasurer: Charles A. Sharp, jL. J. Slekman, Frederick Hank. M. B. Treat. Isaiah W. Haughey and John W. Doe. These are known as the high prudential chiefs and constitute a majority of the executive committee of the order. The order of Judge Munger rites the de fendants on or before August 10, at 9 a. m., to show cause why they refrain from rec ognising William F. Oooden as chief phys ical examiner of the Royal Highlanders and from being enjoined from recognising Isaiah W. .Haughey as. chief physical exam iner and from sending? applicants to him (or examination. Some More) Cause Wanted. The defendants are further ordered to how cause why they should not ba en joined from participating In the delibem tlons of the executive castle at Its ap proaching session to be held at Denver t September 11, 19f6. or at any other special . meeting or session of said executive castle ji0 during the pendency of this suit, and why f the members of said executive caatln, who are not specially designated by name, but I comprehensively designated under the name I of John Doe, and particularly the de I fendant, W. E. Sharp, most Illustrious jro I tector of the Royal Highlanders, and his I successors In office, should not be enjoined from calling any special or other session or meeting of said executive castle during the pendency of this suit or wntll turther or ders of the court, "And. It being charged In the bill, which ,,'s positively verified, that you, the said vV. E. Sharp. Frank J. Sharp, Augustus E. f fiUbman I. J Alekma.n. Frederick Hanke and A. M. Treat, have wrongfully and fraudulently misappropriated and disbursed the funds of said association to your own use and benefit, yon are hereby required to show cause by the time aforesaid, August 10, why you, and each of you, should not be enjoined from participating In the man agement of the association pending the ac counting between you and It, prayed for." Election for Delegates. 1 Thw dofsndniiM) are ordered .to show cause wTiy a suitable person should not be named by the court to call election to name dele gates -to general convention to frame a representative form of gorernment In ac cordance with the statutes of Nebraska, and why such person so directed shall not in tbs meantime be ordered and empowered to take charge of the association. Its prop erty, funds, business and affairs and man age the same under the orders of the court until said association adopts and puts In operation a representative form of govern ment and until further orders of the court. ' The petition on which Judge Munger's order was granted Is a very lengthy docu ment, embracing as It does all the edicts and by-laws of the order. It starts off with the statement that under Its charter and the laws of Nebraska, the Royal Highland ers should have a representative form of government. In addition to Its lodge work and forms of ritual. The edicts and by laws are then set forth In extenso and the TKarge Is made that they were not adopted - f i duly and lawfully constituted repre rentatlve body of the association. Of the twenty-ftva members of the executive com mittee who adopted the edicts and by-laws It Is crargad that only nine were repre sentatives or elective members, and that the other sixteen were entitled to no part or vole In tha deliberations. Charge Laws Tampered With, It Is charged that as tne edicts and by- . lawj stand now they have been tampered yvlth sine they were adopted and that unaer merrj ma most mucinous protector. s who is also president, "Is enabled to main tain the absolute control and domination of said association and to perpetuate him self and bis appointees in office Indefinitely, regardless of the will or wishes of the ma jority of the members, and Is at all times able to maintain a majority control through lis friends, partisans and fellow conspir ator." After reciting wherein the by-laws were changed after adoption and before filing with the secretary ot state, the petition goes on to recite the appointment of Dr. Good en as chief physical examiner and the effort to depose him from that office. Then ramlng the high prudential chle.fs consti tuting a majortly of the executive com mittee, the petition says: Forgetting their sacred trust and duty and designing and contriving to Injure and defraud said association and its members, the defendants have conspired together for the purpose of. looting and grafting, em beixllng and misappropriating and fraud ulently misapplying and diverting the funds to their own use and benefit. It is further alleg-ed that the defendants are at present doing these acts and have been for some time past. Manipulation of salaries and of contracts for reralia Is also alleged and the petition goes with minute particularity Into many and various alleged Instances of wrongdoing.

PUTS INHERITANCE TAX IN ROAD FUND Gas Harte Appears Sot to Hare Been Oblivions to Fart that As other 'onnlr Job Is la Slsbt, In connection with th renewed agitation for tha collection of the state Inheritance tax from estates in Douglas county, It has been discovered that by the provisions of House Roll No. 90. Introduced by Mr. Cas sell of Otoe county, this county will be In line to have a system of permanent road ways out In the country at no distant date. That Is, of course, providing the tax can be collected. Cassell's law provides that tha county treasurer ot each county shall keep all taxes collected from estates under the In heritance tax law In a separate fund, to be at the disposal of the Hoard of County Commissioners. It further provides that this money can be expended only on perma nent roadways outside the limits of Incor porated cities and villages. They majr come up to the limits of said cities or villages, however. In the case of paved roods the paving shall be not less tl.un nine or more than twelve feet In width. The total width Is to be not greater than twenty-five feet, and alongside the paved part.' there shall be a dirt road. This law does not apply to estates pro bated prior to July 1 of this year, but under tt the E. V. Nash estate and some others would be liable. If a few such es tates as that left by Mr. Nash should be levied on In the coursa of a few years the county commlsfioners would find at their command for permanent road purposes fund th.it would mount away up Into the thousand. One lawyer who was discussing the matter cited the estste of. the lata Frank Murphy, which he said would have been liable to this permanent road fund for hvtween So.000 and fO.'VO. Seta Peoplo ftot Asloep. Kven though there la as jet no money In tha proposed fund, there Is a robust rumor floating about the court house to the effect that some parties have kept their eya on the t'asat-ll law all through and that, friends ot ambitious road builders bve already got busy. The best Information obtainable seems to point to Former County Corn mtsaioner Gus Harts as having the Inside track as a candidate thus far. It tha office of read supervisor abvuid be cxeatad by tha county board in Its ntanagement of. the fund. From present appearances it does not seem probabje that the conference between tne county judge, county attorney and the attorneys and other representatives ot estates can be held within a week. The county attorney's office has not yet amended its applications for the appoint ment of appraisers In accordance with the suggestion of Judge VInsonhaler, and until this Is done the latter will not name a date for the conference. The Judge is away at present and will be absent until Monday, so that in any event It w!M be the end of next week before the conference will be held. After the date Is sot there are a great many people to be notified. DODGE COUNTY PUTS IN CLAIM Asks Douglas County Court to Allow Urge Sam from Katate of David M. Owen. John W. Graham, county attorney for Dodge county, has filed in the Douglas county court a claim against the estate of the lata David M. Owen. It Is set forth that In July, 1904. Mr. Owen entered Into a contract with Dodge county to excavate aruj construct a certain ditch, that Owen lias since died, and that the county, by reason of the faiulre to construct the ditch In accordance with the contract, has been damaged to the sum of (2,640. The estate of Mr. Owen is still unsettled In the probate court and Is one of those which Is artleged to come within the pro visions of the state Inheritance law. AFFA1ES AT SOUTH OMAHA" Fiscal Tsar Closes with Nice Salance in Hands of Treasnrar. OVER TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND A YEAR Expenses of Maintaining; the Govern, ment and Carina; for .Needed Im provements Take a Large Sam of Money. SCHEME TO SELL TWO PARKS Plan Devised to Dispose of Fontaaelle and Flm wood as Acre Property. A scheme to convert Fnntanelle and Elm wood parks into acre property and sell them to the highest bidders is being indus triously worked up by 8am Rothwell, who is one of the leaders of the Clifton Hill Improvement club, and J. E. Van Glider, an enthuastlc Improvement club man and a member of the city appraising board. So far as known Commissioner Gonden Is tha only member of the Park board who has been favorably Impressed with tha plan and Mr. Gonden Is said to be taking a leading hand In the agitation to bring It about. NEWS FOR THE ARMY. Benjamin B. Elder, trumpeter Troop K, Eleventh cavalry, has been honorably dis charged. Ives 8. Carter, private Troop M. Eleventh cavalry, stationed at Fort Des Moines, has been honors bly discharged. Corporal George J. Stlne. Company I. Thirtieth Infantry, stationed at Fort Crook, baa bean honorably discharged. Reports for the fiscal year ending July 31 are coming in and Judging from the figures the municipality will have money to burn during the present llHcal year. L'p to dule there Is a total balance In bunk from the last fiscal year of lil,6Hi The levy at 7 mills brings in, 011 a valuation of a revenue of JIM.SIO. Taking from this sum the lu per cent reserve of I1S.491, there U available for warrants of HK419. Added to Uils the balances car ried over thakes a total of $jou.64ti. In ad dition to this revenue comes the royalties, licenses, fines, etc.. which last year amounted to U,!U. This will make a total of J1J,5(9 which the mayor und council has to spend for municipal purposes during the rresent liscal year, which expires at the end of Juij' next. While this looks like a very large Bum for maintaining a government over about S0.WV) people, the city authorities assert that the sum Is none too large, and that even with economy there will not be a large balance left. The fire and police departments cost about I.V.00U each year. Street lighting and tha water hydrant rentals take 12V)0 each a year. The public library must have S5.oni). Interest on outstanding bonds takes up about 146.00 each year and street re pairs coBt in the neighborhood of 15,W). Salaries of city officials and employes cut quite a figure and minor expenses keep depleting the funds day by day. The bal ance left this year In the treasury is the largest In the history of the city. Coming expenaes will be large, as the fire department headquarters building Is to be built at a cost of llO.Onn, and this will necessarily call for more fire fighting apparatus, and an increase in the number of men. Then there is a demand for a patrol wagon, a better fire alarm system and an increase In the number of patrol men. Election expenses must also be con sidered and rental for the building occu pied as a city l.all. The general bonded debt of the city now amounts to V&Sm and the special Indebt edness StC.tinS, making a total of I7ET.6ES. As the municipality guarantees the spe cial lmprokmect bonds U la Labia, so that the $;2,655 may be figured In with the general debt. None of the money to be derived from taxation or from royalties or other sources can be used for paving, curb ing or grading. I nlon l'sclSe Bays Property. The I'nion Taclfic Railroad company has purchased the triangular piece of ground east of the present depot' for depot pur poses. The purchase price, $R,ffj0, has been paid and the deed Is to be recorded today. This purchase terminates a long term of negotiations between John J. Ryan, P. E. Iler, John A. McBhane and the t'nlon Pa cific. At times It looked as If the deal would hever 1 consummated, but Ryan stuck to IiIh original proposition and last evening showed up with a check for the purchase- price. Some years ago Ryan bought from the school district the greater portion of the triangle. The South Omaha Land confpany owned the north end abut ting on M street and the point near N Htreet. In order to consummate the deal it was necessary for Ryan and the officers of the land company to reach an agree ment. This tract has a fronting on M street of 104 feet and on Twenty-seventh of 271 feet. In order to make a deal with the land com pany so that he could sell the triangle In tact to the Union Pacific It was necessary for Ryan to transfer or trade some of his other property In the vicinity to the land company. With the money paid it looks now as If South Omaha was sure of having a pas tenger depot before a great while. When the proposed depot Is built the Union Pa cific proposes to go ahead with trackage Improvements planned months ago. The tact that tne deal is closed will be good news to South Omaha people who have boen working for a passenger depot for ) ears. Brass Thieves Busy Again. In spite of all the railroad detectives can do thieves continue to steal brass Jour nals and other fittings from storehouses In the railroad yards. Only a night or two ago a railroad storehouse was broken Into and a quantity of brass stolen. A por tion of the stolen property was found In a field and watch put on, but the thieves did not come as expected to remove tha plunder. Every effort Is being made by tha South Omaha police to locate the thieves and secure the balance of the plunder. Old Officers Re-elected. When the annual meeting of the South Omaha Library board was held reports were read and then came the election of officers. Bruce McCulloch was chosen presi dent. W. 8. King vice president and Mrs. C. L. Talbot secretary. Miss Jane Abbott, librarian, submitted -a report which will be transmitted to tha council later. The report shows that tha library Is In good financial condition. With tha amount to be derived from the 19"5 levy some new books may be purchased. Held Without Hall. Joseph Koxlowskl was given a prelimi nary hearing .In police court Friday and was held to the district court without bail. The hearing occupied nearly all day. Most of the testimony fciven was the same as at the coroner's Inquest. After being bound over Koxlowskl was taken to the county Jail. The attorneys for Kozlowskl assert that they expect to have the charge of murder in the first degree changed to man slaughter and ball fixed. A large number of friends of William Rollins, colored, who was killed by Kozlowskl last Sunday night, were present in the courtroom during the entire hearing. Adklns Takes Hold. With Mayor Koutsky out of the city W. P. Adklns, president of the city council, is acting mayor. About the first thing Mr. Adklns did Friday morning was to Instruct the city engineer to employ enough men to dig up the Railroad avenue sanitary sewer and to get the sewer open as soon as pos sible. The city engineer put on a few more men, but the sewer Is still hacking up. If necessary more men will be put on today, as It Is essential that this sanitary sewer be kept open. Magic City Gossip.
