Of $109,941.68.
The city councfl did not do anything; seri
ou to Contractor Wlckham hn It met
yesterday afternoon In pclal session to
decide what ahould be done In tlie matter
of the conduit laying on South Main stret.
Wlckham's persuasive eloquence again won
the day and all the council requested him
to do waa to haul the broken atona and
Kranlte blocka he had carried away to the
cltya yard on Bryant street. . This Wlck
ham consented to do, although he said he
would much prefer leaving - them where
they were In hla yard on North Main street
and that the cfty get them when It ned,d
the blocka or the broken atone. An In
spector at the expense of the Independent
Telephone company la a! no to be placed on
the work.
Alderman Tlriley yenturad, the opinion
that Wlckham ahould be required to relay
a large part of the paring cm Main atreet
where It waa admitted that too much dirt
and not enough crushed atona had been
placed under the granite blocka. but ha
declined to make a motion to that effect
and aa none of the other aldermen seemed
Inclined to do bo the matter waa dropped.
The ball was started rolling by the mayor
who told uf personally witnessing several
loads of crushed stone being hauled away
from Main street and of seeing at least 100
graWte blocks Which had not been relald
In the places from which they had been
torn up.. Alderman Weaver hastened to
the support of Wlokham with a statement
to the effect that the blocks had been taken
up to make room for the manholes for the
conduits. ' The alderman had progressed
but a little1 way when Mayor Macrae called
mm .10 m nail, ow, oexore you go any
further, Alderman Weaver, I want you to
understand that I am not talking about
manholes, but about the excavations made
(r the conduits, and, furthermore, I hap-
N-n to know what I'm talking about." Al
Firman Weaver resumed hla seat and the
fnayor proceeded- to atate how he believed
that seeing the property owners did not
want the f aw granite blocks the city should
have them and not the contractor.
Wlckham States Ills aide.
Contractor Wlckham addressed the coun
ell at length stating that he had no desire
to do anything but what waa right and any
defect tn the relaying of the paving would
le remedied by htm. He had no uae for
'tie granite blocks or crushed stone and
would only he tod glad If the city would
haul them awav.
At this, point City Solicitor Snyder took a
hand tti tba same and with some warmth
disputed the statement of Wlckham that
In relaying granite block paving all of the
orte-lnal blocks could not be replaced. The
city attorney Insisted that If the workmen
were given sufficient time they could relay
every block. This brought Wlckham to hi
feet with an offer to bet the city attorney
IfiOO that he could not relay a block of
granite paving without leaving out a num
ber of the blocks.- Mr. Snyder declined to
accept the bet, although still maintaining
that he waa correct In hla assertion.
At the suggestion - of Alderman Ttnley,
Captain, J A, Brown, was Appointed In
spector of the work, his compensation to
be paid by the Independent Telephone
company, which It waa Incidentally stated
during the discussion, waa responsible to
the city and not Wlckham, for any defect
In the relaying of the paving over ita con
duits. The Indian Creek dredge came up for an
other round, the committee, of which Alder
man Weaver Is chairman, reporting that
It had been unable to secure a suitable man
ot U 1 day to take care of the machine.
Then once again the former action of the
council In ordering the placing of a 12 a
day watchman was rescinded and after
considerable discussion, the committee waa
instructed to secure two watchmen, one
for the day and the other for night, each
to be pad $1 M p day.

Soma most remarkable Information la the
result of the arrest of Ben Shadduck and
Harry Marks, two alleged forgers, now to
await trial In the district court.

Wednesday night, charged with having
forged and passed worthless checks, full
particulars of which were published in

Matters In District Ooarf. .
The hearing of the application for the
appointment of a receiver for the North
western Trust company, which was to
have been had before Judge Wheeler In
district court tomorrow morning, will
have to be postponed. Judge Wheeler
who Is holding court In Sidney, notified
Clerk Battey yesterday that he would be
unable to be here, and the hearing will
probably have to go over to the September
term.
Lena Hollenberg secured Judgment for
Sua against the Northwestern Trust com
pany In the court of Justice Gardiner on
a claim for salary aa typewriter, and yes
terday the company appealed to tho dis
trict court.
One effect of the postponement of the
opening of the September term of dis
trict cqurt here, from September to Sep
tember 11. will be to prevent a hearing in
the school vaccination case bef "'' tho
schools reopen. The hearing had l""n set
for the first day of court, with t ex
pectation that it would be determined be
fore the opening of tho new school year.
As the schools reopen Monday, September

Tlie Interesting part of the story Is that
the alleged forgers rather pride themselves
upon the success they have had In tho
business elsewhere. Shadduck, who la an
alert youth with auburn hatr and an eagle
eye, made this statement to Captain
Shields:
'You can't charge us with anything but
obtaining money under false pretenses. I

NEW TORK. Aug. II Baron Kaneko,
former minister of sgrlculture In the cabi
net of Marquis Ito, concerning whose mis
sion to the I'nlted States there has been
much conjecture, gave out an Interview
Inst night in which he declares that his
business In America. Is purely of an eco
nomic nature. He denied absolutely that
he had anything to do with the peace nego
tiations at Portsmouth. In his self-appointed
task, he declares, he has accom
plished much and sees as an ultimate re
sult the economic salvation of his own
country aa well as an enormous amount ot
good to America.
"Throughout my life, and particularly
during my terms In the cabinet of Marquis
Ito, I have taken a deep Interest In eco
nomic questions." said the baron, "which
led to my being placed In charge of tha
Japanese exhibits at numerous expositions.
Including that at St. Louis,
In the year and a quarter that I have
been In this country I have been studying
constantly. My sojourns In Europe proved
to me that the European markets were
filled with their own products and I saw
here that If the front door of the American
market waa dosed the back door was open
to Asia. In the course of my Investigations
I have talked with all kinds of people and
have learned a great deal about what I be
lieve to be the glorious future that lies
before the United States In the far east.
Hope l ies In America.
"America Is our nearest neighbor. In It
our hope Is bound up and since our country
wss opened up by America In IWil we have
ever maintained cordial relations and been
the slncerest friends. To me the l'nltd
States has always seemed a second home
and If I can bring about the economic alli
ance that I am now free to talk about I
shall feel, on account of the good that will
accrue to this country from such an alli
ance, that I have paid a part of my debt
of gratitude.
Probably within a few weeks I shall go
back horns and shall tell my people the re
sults of ray study. I shall tell them that
the United States Is a country without a
thought of territorial agrandlxement; that
the American people will defend the rights
of other nations as they will defend their
own, because they love Individual right and
Individual liberty. I shall tell my people
that the way to open Asia, securely and
peaceably. Is through the introduction of
American civilization.
"And I shall do more than that If I am
allowed to do It I am ready to serve as a
loyal subject of Japan and as a sincere
friend of America in bringing about an
economic alliance not a treaty signed on
parchment, but Imprinted In the hearts and
the minds of the people of Japan and the
United States. That Is my ambition. To
achieve It I came here on my self-appointed
mission, and I trust that my efforts will be
crowned with eurcess."
