Senator Millard started laat evenlnc for

Speaking of the matter Monday morning-,
Senator Millard said:
Tes; I have decided to go to the Isth
mus, as It la the desire of the commis
sion that members of the senate and house
committees on canals shall see just what Is
being done and get a practical Idea of the
problems to be confronted. My hurried
departure disrupts my plana for the fall.
It waa my Intention to make personal In
quiry Into several Important mattera of
legislation In the western part of the state
and particularly to visit Fort Niobrara,
which I wish to have enlarged and made
a permanent artillery post, but In view
of my trip to Panama I may have to
forego Investigation of these state mat
ters thla fall. I shall be absent about a
month, but will return to Omaha before
I go to Washington for the winter. I
have a telegram from Chairman 8honta
urging me to go, and aa It la the aecond
request of the kind I do not think I ought
to decline."
What Committee Will no.
In reply to a query Senator Millard said
he expected the senate committee on in
terstate commerce would meet prior to the
oonvenlng of congress. In that event
the aenator will attend the special alt
ting and predlota that the committee will
formulate a bill and report It to the sen

earnestly supporting President Roosevelt
In the economic Issues which he has pushed
to the foreground for settlement at the
hands of congress. Our party In this state
has emphatically approved the public ut
terances of the president In regard to a
revision of the Interstate commerce law
and particularly hla views as expressed
in a recent speech at Chautauqua. N. T.
I feel that every republican In Nebraska
can consistently endorse that speech and
that the business interests of the country
would be sutlsfled with action by congress
in line with the suggestions therein made.
"Last spring, upon my return from Wash
ington, where I Attended as one of Its
members the sessions of the senate com
mittee on Interstate commerce, I wrote
a letter to Senator S. B. Elklns, chairman
of that committee, In which, In part, 1
said i
'I think It would be much better to
have a department of government with a
cabinet officer at Its head, the same as
that of other departments, and let all mat
tera of transportation, whether by water
or rail, be considered by that department.
with a man In charge who would be of
the highest character, as a cabinet officer
must necessarily be, and with trained sub
ordinates for handling the details.'
Coincides with President.
"Those who have read the president's
last public expression on the subject will
see that his Idea Is similar to that which
gave to Senator Elklns last June, and
which, by the way, I had given to a num
ber of friends In Washington and In Ne
braska.
"But whether or not the president shall
embody this Idea Into his forthcoming
message, I am confident that congress will
enact a law that will meet the approval
of the president and of the people of Nebraska.
"In this connection perhaps It would be
Interesting to quote President Roosevelt's
words on thla Important point. These two
paragraphs are clipped from a newspaper
report of the speech:
I believe that all enrnnntlnni nntui
In Interstate commerce should be under
the supervision of the national
nient. I do not believe In taking steps
hastily or rashly, and It may be that all
that Is necessary In the Immrrlini rnti
Is to pass an interstate commerce bill con-
rerring upon some urancn of the executive
government the power of effective action
to remedy the abuses In connection with
railway transportation.
"It may be that we shall flnrl that h
only effective way of exercising supervision
is to require all corporations engaged In
Sny monopoly In Interstate traffic to pro
uc proof satisfactory ey to the De
partment or commerce, that they are not
parties to any contract or combination, or
engaged In any monopoly In interstate
trade In violation of the anti-trust law and
that their conduct on certain other speci
fied points is proper; and moreover, that
these corporations shall agree, with a pen
alty of forfeiture of their right to engago
In such commerce, to furnish any evi
dence of any kind as to their trade be
tween the states, whenever so required by
the Department of Commerce."

CONNELL KEEPS CLIENTS OUT OF PRISON
Appeal to Chief J net Ice Holconab nt
Lincoln, Who Issnea Snpersedcaa
Which Delays Proceedings
Some Time.
Judge A. L. Sutton of the district court
Monday morning sentenced five of th
Omaha city councilmen to serve thirty
days In the county Jail for contempt of the
Douglas county district court, and also
to pay the costs of the case. But the
councilmen will not go to the county bss-
tlle as boarders with Sheriff Powers for
some time yet, If at all. Their attorney,
W. J. Connell, aaserta that they will not
go at all.
After pronouncing sentence Judge Sut
ton allowed the five councilmen Back, Dy
ball, Evans, Huntington and Schroeder
to go away In the custody of Sheriff Power
on the latter's personal responsibility to
have them In court at S o'clock.
As soon as this was done Mr. Connell
dispatched hla partner, Mr. Thomas, to
Lincoln with all the necessary papers,
which had been prepared In advance
against such a contingency. Mr. Thomas
took with him a bill of exceptions, a pe
tltlon In error and a bond signed by all
of the councilmen aa principals and by
Hugh Murphy as surety.
Holeomb Issnea "operaedene.
Arriving at Lincoln Mr. Thomas hunted
un Chief Justice Holeomb of tne su
preme court and presented his papers,
at the same time tendering the fee of 10.
The chief justice, after examining the ex
hibits, approved the bond and issued a
aupersedeaa, which has the effect of re
leasing the five councilmen from custody
pending a review of their case by the su
preme court. Their attorney and the
county attorney, for the district court, will
now have twenty daya In which to file
briefs. This done, the case may be heard
within ninety, daya or It may not, al
though the chances are It will.
Sentence was not pronounced until 12:30
Monday, after Mr. Connell had consumed
the two hours from 10 to 12 o'clock In argu
ing a motion for arrest of Judgment. In
doing so he necessarily covered considerable
ground already gone over, but also pre
sented some new viewa of the law applica
ble to contempt cases. He gav special at
tention to the matter of acceptance of a
recognizance by the court pending a re
view by the supreme court.
game aa He Who Trie to Kill.
Judge Sutton. In overruling Mr. Connell's
motion for arrest of Judgment and in re
fusing a aupersedeaa, said he believed the
case at bar was one of the same nature
exactly as would be a case wherein one
man had attempted to kill another and had
only succeeded in badly maiming him. The
punishment would be for the crime com
mitted, and that alone.
Having ordered the five accused men to
arise, the court put the question: "Have
you anything to say why the sentence of
the court should not be pronouncedT"
Each of the councilmen answered In
substance:
"I believed I waa acting within my rights
when I voted and that I waa doing right.
I do not believe I am guilty of any of
fense." The court then said. In brief:
By the passage of the ordinance In ques
tion, If ft had passed,- you would have
entered Into a contract with the Omaha
Oas comnanv for the sum of $140,000. That
amount would have been -chargeable to the
taxpayers of the "City of Omaha. The
court, on a petition .properly presented,
which set up mat the contemplated action
would be In violation of law, simply Issued
an order commanding you to wait three
days, until the matter could be heard
and determined. - While that order was in
force it was Just as much the law as If
the supreme court had said so many, many
times.
Question of Authority.
Whether you had the authority to enter
Into that contract was a matter for the
court to decide on a proper hearing. If the
court had no right In such cases there
would be nothing to prevent the council
from entering Into any kind of contracts
with any person or persons, and soon we
might have all sorts of contracts saddled
onto tne taxpayers ana tne city.

action In this case. Ton were not ordered
not to pass the gas ordinance, out simpiy
to wait until the court could determine If
you were acting within the law. The only
mitigating circumstance Is that you prob
ably did not pass the ordinance.
Petty criminals hold no respect In the
community; but they and the whole people
look up to you gentlemen for an example
of obedience to law. Next time you desire
to violate an order of the court consult
your personal attorneys and make inquiry
as to what you should do.
The sentence of the court Is that you be
delivered into the custody of the sheriff
of Douglas county to be confined In the
county Jail for a period of thirty days,
and pay the costs of the case. I believe
this Is the very minimum sentence that
should be mposed In so serious a case.
Connell Ask Suspension.
Mr. Connell was at once on his feet to
ask for a suspension of sentence for a few
hours until he could get the proper papers
to Lincoln and telephone back an order for
a stay.
Judge Sutton said he did not wish to act
arbitrarily simply because the law gave
him the power to do so. He would there
fore allow the councilmen to go In the
cuatody of the sheriff until 5 o'clock, when
the sheriff wouH be expected to produce'
them tn court promptly.
Aa the crowd filed out of the court room
there waa a buss of comment of many
varieties. The five councilmen appeared
to be In a somewhat Jocular mood In
answering the queries and expressions
of their friends. Under all this, however,
was an undercurrent of seriousness and a
trifle of anxiety. All expressed the opin
ion and the hope that Mr. Connell would
succeed In securing a stay at Lincoln.
Councilman Dyball perhaps expressed th
thought of his confreres when he said:
'The court has said that I am guilty
of contempt and should be punished. That
Is the court's prerogative, but I still be
lleve that I acted right. I took the view
that It would be better to aave $120,000
a year for the consumers of tha city
rather than a possible 17,200 for the city.'

stitute himself a Judge, and superior to the
district Judges, the law would be of little
use. For example, if some company were
tearing up the streets to lay certain mains

would undoubtedly ask for a restraining

expecf the court to enforce Its order. If

The October term 6f the United State
court will convene at Lincoln Monday,
October 2. with Judge W. H. Munger pre

filing trial notices, and from the number
of them filed it docs not look as If It were
going to be a very strenuous term. How
ever, the court is getting ready for a mi
gration to Lincoln, though the session may
not lust all of next week. But aix casea
are noticed for trial and they are alt law
or equity cases. They are: John Cham

against The Iowa State Traveling Men's
association; Jamea Coffey against th
County of Harlan, Nebraska; McKee
against the City of Ashland; Herpolshelmer
against Citizens' Insurance Company, and
Alex Peddle against Mary Burns.
There will be no criminal cases tried dur
ing the Lincoln term. The only criminal
case set for hearing there was the cas
of the United States against Thomas L.
Sloan, but that has been continued over
until December, when It will be tried in
Omaha.
A petit Jury will be empaneled for th
Lincoln .term of court, forty-eight taler

term. The panel waa published In Th
Bee several days ago.
The contention of th Independent tele
phone promoters that the Bell rate are ex
cessive and that telephone service can be
furnished with profit at ratea from 25 to
23 per cent lower haa been proved a fal
lacy by hundreds of cases.. After Investi
gating the financial history of over fifty In
dependent telephone companies with rales
lower than the Boll rates I have yet to
find on that ha done a profitable business
Some of the Independent companies, It la
true, have paid dividends on their stock,
but in every such case to come under my
observation the dividends have been pnld
from money that should have been re
served for th Inevitable depreciation of
the property and ultimately th dividends
and additional capital will have to be re
turned to the company to cover tha cost of
replacing worn out and out-of-date equip
ment.
Practically all of the Independent tele
phone companies at the start fix their rate
regardless of depreciation, and when the
rebuilding period comes, and It la certain
to come In every case, they must Invest
now capital as the property which repre
senta th original capital goea to waste.
The men who promote these Independent
undertakings can well afford to adopt this
unbusinesslike way of making rates beoaua
they take their profits off the construc
tion work and the original stock and bond
flotations and get out of th companies
while the equipment is new and before th
"construction period fairly opens. Th
om Investors, who ar Innocent of the
lepreciatlon charge until It strikes tham,
.re left to "hold the sack."
In a telephone business properly con
ducted the. heaviest general item 'of. ex
pens Is th depreciation or maintenance.
and it Is by Ignoring this positive charge
against the business during th first few
years of the life of the plants that the
Independent telephone companies have been
enabled to make ratea lower than those
made by th old and experienced Bell com
panies. But after a few years of opera
tlon the Independent plante have to be par
tlally rebuilt every year, th depreciation
charge can no longer be Ignored, and to
cover it ther must necessarily be the In
vestment of new capital, an advance In
rates, or bankruptcy. There Is not an in
dependent telephone company that has been
doing business for five years or more In any
large city that has not resorted to either
an Increase In capital, and advance In
ratea or bankruptcy. A large number of
th Independent companies have advanced
their original rate to save themselves from
bankruptcy, and In most of auch cases the
advances have been made In violation of
the term of th franchises granted by th
municipalitlea. The following table ehows
aom of th rat Increase made by Inde
pendent companies:

'So far aa It la In the power of myself
and the police and detective forces the

hue Monday morning.
"The records show w made a good cam
paign last fall and we Intend to be more
vigilant than ever thla season. Suspicious
characters must give a good account of
themselves, go to Jail or leave the city at
once," continued the chief.
Chief of Detective Dunn says many
loose characters already have dropped In
for the carnival. Chief Dunn' flying
squadron has gathered In about a score of
ausplcloua characters and vagrants since
last Saturday morning. Most of this num
ber wa discharged In police court Monday
morning by Judge Brka with the distinct
undcrktandlng that they quit the premises
or stand sentence If arrested the aecond
time. A few were sentenced.
Chief Donahue and Chief Dunn aeem de
termined to maintain the good record they
have established in former Ak-Sar-Ben seasons.
tenslv aa the eervle of the Bell compan
ies, the rates will have to be equallxed In
order to make the business of the Independ
ent profitable. Witness tha following
statement of Robert S. Hamblln, secretary
of th Independent company at Toledo,
published In a recent tssu of th. Toledo
New-Bee:
"W limply had to raise our rates If wa
wanted to keep on doing business, arid wa
may have to raise the rates again If w get
to a like pass. I want to say, too, that w
certainly never expected to Increase our
rate when w were granted th original
franchise. We expected to keep the same
rates, but we simply had to raise them.
We never anticipated the enormous growth
of the business or the great demand for
telephones. In the telephone business th
more subscribers you get the lesa money
you make. We were making more money
when we had 1.000 telephones at the old
rate than we are making now with (.000 at
the new rate. The difference comes In th
Increased expenses, and the expenses In.
crease more with every new telephone put
In than th corresponding Increase in revenue."
Mr. Hunt and his associate promoters In
Omaha will most likely meet the fact that
the Independent companies elsewhere hav
advanced their rates by declaring that no
auch thing can happen In tha Omaha case,
because they are willing to have th fran
chise specify tha ratea to be charged. But,
on thla point, we can again go back to th
facts. Of th seven cities mentioned above,
In Cleveland, Pittsburg, Toledo and Qales
burg, th Independent companies advanced
their ratea In spite of the fact that the
ratea wer epeclfied and limited by tha
terms of tha franchise ordinance. In St.
Louts the Independent company do.-s not
operate under any municipal franchise, but
under the stat law. Courts In different
states have held that city councils have no
power to limit the rates for telephone serv.
Ice, and our Omaha promotera are probably
familiar with the ruling on thla point.
However, It Is a matter of little Interest to
the promoters, for they nearly always get
out of the companies before it becomea
necessary to advance the rates. The horn
people, to whom they have ao generously
sold the stock and bonds and to whom they
have thus relinquished the "profits" of tha
business, ar left to worry over future rat
questions. ,11. J. jQONPEN.

use of this wonderful
