DIRTY LINEN WASHED OUT City Ball Offlelala Exchaage Compll- saeats la So-Called Debate oa Legislative Bill. The Commercial club refuses to ' be coerced Into taking up the fight of the city hall officials who are opposed to H. R. 167. It voted , to take no action for or against ' the bill. i Instead of discussing the provisions of H. R.' No. 157, known as the Andrew Rosewater bill for changes in the'munlct pal government, as was intended at ft mass meeting Friday afternoon of about 150 members of - the Omaha Commercial club, the meeting was principally devoted to an airing of factional quarrels between the city council ahd the city engineer's office and resulted In the Washing of con slderable dirty linen on both aides. . After Mr. Rosewater had replied to the attacks made upon- the bill, James C. Xlnaler .moved that "it be the sense of this meeting that we endorse II. R. No. 157." The question never came to a vote, as ft motion to adjourn without taking action' oa the bill was made and carried with but few dissenting votes. Members of the club thought It was unwise to go on record as ft club in either endorsing or refusing to endorse the bill," In view of the fact that only about fifty members of the club had remained to the close of the meeting.

SALE BEGINS 10:OO O'CLOCK SATURDAY, MAKCII 2ND. si . . . ; TWO PLANS FOR COEffl JAIL One Set Contemplate! Wert Win and Other Bemodelinff Second Floor. LATENSER SUBMITS BOTH TO THE BOARD Former Schema Iavolves Cost of Twelve to Fifteen an Latter Five to Eight Tnona and Dollars. At ths request of two county commis sioners, John Latenser, the architect, has drawn two tentative plans for the improve ment' of the county Jail, one for a pro posed additional two-story and basement extension to the west of the present struc ture at a cost of between $12,000 and $16,000, and another for remodeling the second flooj of the present building, formerly oc cupied by the Jailor, to cost between $5,000 and $8,000. . The plans .have been submitted by Mr, Latenser to the county commissioners, but official action will not be taken until after further consideration aad more compre hensive Ideas of the two plans is gained. Some of the county commlsslsoners are in favor of the new wing being added to tho old building on the west, . which will ex tend tbe structure) nearly to the west side, walk on Eighteenth street, while other commissioners are in favor of the rehablllt atlon of the old Jail, believing that, with the space heretofore used by the Jailer utlllied in the way of cells, the present crowded condition of the cells will be obviated to ft great degree. What Plans Contemplate. The plans, as drawn by the architect for the proposed additional west wing, call for several separation rooms on the first floor, to be used in segregating and class ifying new prisoners; four modern cells on the second floor and a kitchen In the base ment . The kitchen .would be connected with food chutes or dumb waiters in the old Jail by ft tunnel. Such an Improvement would cost at least $12,000, according to the estimates submitted by. Mr. Latenser and probably as much as $16,000 If the old portion "of the Jail was Improved to any extent. If the plans presented for the changes to the second floor of the Jail are adopted. the cost will be several thousand dollars less, but would decrease the capacity, com mensurately. The latter plans are for the construction of ft padded cell and cells for Juveniles and women In the space formerly occupied by tho Jailer. It is also proposed In these plans to enlarge the office of ths sheriff and bulldt a Jail kitchen separate from the1 main building. It la believed a padded cell Is absolutely necessary in any event, without regard to which Improvements are ultimately decided upon, If any, as there Is no cell ' of this character in Douglas county, and Its 'utll Ity is of unquestioned value for the proper care of insane prisoners.

Tho city council of Florence, acting as a Jury, after hearing the testimony of the plaintiffphysicians contending that small pox exists In that city and the defendant physicians contending that smallpox does not exist there at ft meeting held Thursday night, as readers of The Bee know, raised tho quarantine placed in the three homes where the contagion was supposed to exist and announced to the world that Florence was free from this dread Infection. Reso lutions, properly setting forth the facts and conditions, were adopted. This Is the latest round in the contro versial combat between the contending physicians. Tho people of Florence are willing to admit they may havo ft few ohlckenpox cases within their midst, but vehemently deny there is any smallpox. "I have already reported the cases to the State Board of Health as smallpox," said Dr. 8. K. Spalding, deputy state medical Inspector, Friday; "I do not know what ths board will da It has no money with which to prosecute. This Is the end of the fiscal year and Its appropriations are all con sumed. So far as I am personally con cerned I have discharged my duty." Action of Coaacll. These are ths resolutions adopted by the council: - At a special meeting of the mayor and Council of Florence, held last evening, the following resolutions was unanimously adopted: V nereas, By an unfortunate mistake it has been reported that certain cases of smallpox exist in Florence, and, Whereas, Such report was and Is false, yet has been widely circulated and pub lished in the dally papers of the city of Omaha, greatly to the detriment of our city and its citizens, and, whereas, On account of such false re ports our schools have been closed for nearly a week and certain of our citlxens subjected to quarantine; and, W hereas. Our mayor and Board of Health, for the purpose of having defi nitely determined the nature of the ailment of certain children of three families in Florence, heretofore reported as having smallpox, have employed three experts, namely, bra. 8. R. Towns, J. B. Qulnby and J. B. Ralph vt Omaha, to examine and diagnose all of said cases of alleged smallpox and report their findings; and. Whereas, Said expert physicians, to gether with Dr. W. O. Akers of Florence, have this day made such examination and diagnosis and ' filed with our mayor and Board of Health their certificate, as fol lows: "FLORENCE,' Neb,, Feb. 28, I907.-To the Mayor and Board of Health of the City of Florence! Gentlemen At your re quest we, the undersigned physicians of the city of Omaha, have this day examined the members of the Mowry, Rich and Clausen families in Florence, reported to be afflicted with smallpox, and we do unanimously agree In our diagnosis of each of said patients and cases In this, that they are or have been afflicted with chlck enpox only, and that none ot said pa tients (consisting of children only) have smallpox.

And, Whereas, The said physicians since Issuing said certificate nave ex pressed the opinion that it would be per tectly safe to raise the quarantine now on the homes ot Messrs. Mowry, Rich and Clausen, and. Whereas. . From said exnerts' renort and other like report from Dr. Robert P. Jem- sen of Omaha, we are thoroughly con vinced that there has not recently been nor is there now any case of smallpox within pur city, and that our cltlsens and the public health would in no sense bo' Jeopardised by having said quarantine re moved, therefore. Resolved, That the report of said ox pert physicians certifying that no small pox exists in said families in Florence be and the same hereby Is accepted and the quarantine heretofore ordered oy our Board of Health against the homes of Messrs. Mowry, Rich and Clausen be forthwith re. mnVAd. i t Resolved. Farther.
