TIIE OMAHA PAILf BEE: TUESDAY, MAY 22, 1906. 1 CITY COUNCIL IN DEADLOCK Cut rortj-Oni BalloU Without Electing President and Continue! Meetine. FUNKHOUSER ONE AHEAD OF BEDFORD tlnmn Cants Vote for Himself to Be In Poaltlon to Decide tbe loatest at tk l.at. ri D,, y i. . rinr. R mm ntu II Cross n Shoes N for Ladies After forty-one Ineffectual ballots to of clrte ur"H h piesirifnt the new democratic city council confessed Itself In a desdlo k yesterday iiftrrnoon nnd adjourned until 3 p. m. today for a fresh tusple. t'ntll a president In elected no business can be transacted, In the opinion of City Attorney Hiirnnm and ex-Assistant City At torney Ilerdninn. on all except the first ballot the vote on president stood like this: For Funkhouser Brticker, Klsaser. Funkhouser. Johnson, McOovern, Shel don. For Bedford Bedford. Bridges, Davis, Hansen. Jack.wn 6. For Zlmmon Zlmman 1. It requires seven votes to name the presU dent. Councilman Bedford developed less Mrcngth than was expected and Councilman Funkhouser more. As whs suggested some time ngn. Councilman Zlmman, the only republican In the body, holds what may be the deciding vote. He can now elect Funkhouser, If he wants to. or In case Bedford frets one more vote he can elect the latter. He said his reason for nominat ing and voting for himself was In order to rot participate In the scrap and let the democrats settle It among themselves. Dlboarn Presides at First. Former City Clerk Elbourn presided at the first organization meeting. The council chamber held several hundred persons who nmelled blood and anticipated a fray. Mayor Dahlman did not appear until the, twenty-eighth ballot. Ho was warmly ap plauded, but took no hand In the scrap. The latter was without verbal violence. Speeches appeared to be tabooed. The only diversion occurred When Zlmman rose and Mid: "Itepresentlng the minority party In the council, I move, seconded by Harry Zlm man, that H. B. Zimtnan be placed in nomi nation for president." Applause and laughter followed. The first ballot developed a few compliments. Bed ford voted for Jackson and.. Klsasser and Funkhouser for Ooodley Brucker. Then the bouquet throwing stopped and the le sions fought grimly until 4:30 o'clock. The result showed a decisive lineup of the coun cil, which in the order of things may last throughout the regime. In fact, this Is the report, decorated with the positive state ment that the "big six" will stick together through thick and thin, while on the other hand the minority five have announced a determination not to let the "combine" run things. Zlmman remains Independent and the "Big Six" must have his vote to cut mustard. Classified, this Is the way the new dem ocratic council stacks up: Big Six Funkhouser. Brucker. Elsassr, Johnson. McOovern and Sheldon. Minority Five Bedford, Bridges, Davis, Hansen and Jackson. Independent Zlmman. Botli Sides Make Claims. The Funkhouser majority supporters de clared that members of the opposition, prrb.ibly Hansen or Jackson, would weaken miou nml give tlinm the votes required to elect. The Bedford adherents, however, d' rhv-rd llicy would hold firm. The Funk hoi.cr crowd showed more confidence. Cm it voted down a proposition to adjourn ov : i n It the evening or the next day and on!;- Tmi-Yc-,'s desire to terminate the ue lcy iii'nii Mi i f the roll call enabled the llcill nil f .i i tun to quit and try to get a fr i-li hold. All predictions of the feud In -tv- n the two combines have come true and th'r" la slid to be much rancor below the su: f.fc that W expected to be shown up hit r. CluiiKes of treachery have been ti-H'le pitvately and may be hoisted out In Mi" arena la the course of events to fol low. Meanwhile no business can be transacted ai-d the appointments and employes at the city hall arc laughing up their sleeve. They turn It ns an omen of the democrats be Intt unable to agree upon appointments and other things if they have so much trouble in picking a council president. The councllmen went into the meeting feeling a good deal like men floating on life prerervcts In water of an unknown depth. They had held no caucus and not until the second roll call did anyone know how matters stood. Among other things a well-known franchlsed corporation employe was on the floor actively lobbying In Funk houser s behalf. Democrats Art Now la Office. Small fuss attended tbe taking hold of city government affairs by the new demo cratic administration the nrst fci sixteen years Monday. Mayor Dahlman picked up the reins of the executive department with the quiet, unassuming manner that la char acteristic and then .turned his attention to receiving a host of men, most of whom wanted to see him about appointments, but a few merely to congratulate him. City Clerk Butler and City Attorney Bur riam, with their respective new office forces, took charge of their departments. As Comptroller I-obeck and Building Inspector Vithnell were re-elected there were no changes in these offices. Mayor Dahlman, accompanied bv Charljs Epstein, who since election, has pe.--formcr the office of a faithful guard, ap peared n the executive rooms at 10:30. Retiring Mayor Zlmman had been wait ing for an hour to turn over the office. Mayor Dahlman shook hands with Miss Malone, the secretary, Mayuard Wilson, the office messenger, and a few others nd went into the private office. Mr. Zlmman escorted the mayor to tliu executive chair and the possessor settled himself into it with a sigh of relief. He -Wore a new suit of clothes and smoked a cigar. His predecessor presented him with the keys to the doors and desk and explained that one of the flrst Johs waiting him would be the, signing of about 1.000 warrants. The installation was effected In the presence of reporters, who were therefore, the mayor's first callers. "I'm sorry I kept you waiting so long." aid the mayor to Councilman Zlmman. But I was delayed by a few gentlemen who wanted Jobs." The mayor said he believed the new council would proceed to organise with out a caucus, as he had not. beard of any meetings held.

Just as the mayor entered the office a large sheaf of roses and other cut flowers were delivered and placed In a jar upon his desk. They came from Tom Flynn, a leading candidate for street commissioner. After the reporters departed the mayor and Councilman Zlmman held a confer ence lasting about twenty mlnutea. .The flrst official business which the mayor was asked to consider was a re quest from City Clerk Butler that he veto the resolution of the old council proposing to transfer the city clerk's rooms from the first floor to the rooms vacated by the tax commissioner on the second floor of tha hall. Following came hordes of all nationali ties, ages and social and financial condi tions, with demands and requests for all kinds of things. Conspicuous among them win a number of republicans who covet jobs, and several of the present minor office holders. Councilman Zlmman Sunday, after being told by the legal department that It was proper end legal, signed all the ordinances and documents relating to city finances, bonds and tax mutters. In order to perfect the records In case of litigation. Other matters he left to the new mayor. A Wkln of Beamy a Joy Forevor; B.T. Falls Oouraud'a Oriental ' Craam cr Magical Baautlflar, Risn T MS.

City Clerk Rtitler finds a fight on his hands on entering the othYe. It is the pro posal to transfer the clerk's office from the rooms made for them on the flrst floor of the city hull to those on the second floor Just made vacant by the abolition of the office of tax commissioner. This Is to be done to give the consolidated city and county treasury department more room, the Idea being to have It distributed on both sides of the corridor leading into the city hall. A scores of people have business In the clerk's office dally and it Is the Infor mation bureau of the city government, great Inconvenience, it Is urged, to the pub lic would result from taking Its apartments from the ground floor. A feasible plan to give the treasury department more room haa been suggested to run a spiral stair way from the present offices to the old tax department rooms on the second floor Just above. Apparently the Idea of carrying big books up and down the stairway has not appealed to the treasurer's force. Nevertheless a stiff fight will be made against transferring the clerk's offices to rooms Inconveniently located, Inadequate in siie and equipped with a vault many times too small to con tain the documents, papers, books and rec ords which the clerk has to have access to In the routine of dally work.
