NEW MOVE IN MANAWA CASE
Federal Court En joint Action Fending
in the State Court.
BLOCKS INJUNCTION UNTIL FALL
Receiver la Appointed for the Re
freshment Concession at the Lake
on Petition of the Interstate
Amusement Company.
The Interstate Amusement company and
the Omaha 4 Council Bluffs Railway com
pany played a trump card yeaterday and
the injunction which C. W. Atwood, Q. II.
Scott and other directors of the Council
Bluffs Fish and Gams Protective association
sought against the sale of liquor within
the Inclosure at Lake Manawa was not
forthcoming. An order from Judge Smith
McPherson of ths United States court re
straining Atwood and his fellow directors of
ths Fish and Game Protective association
from proceeding further with the case In
the district court and requiring that they
should appear In the federal court put a
halt to the liquor Injunction proceedings
for the time being and It Is possible that
nothing further can be done by the Fish
and Gams Protective association until the
session of tha United States court in this
city in September.
Another step taken by the management
at I.ke Manawa waa the filing yeaterday
morning In the office cf the clerk of the
United States circuit court of an order
appointing Thomas F. Mahoney receiver
of tho property and business of R, F.
O'Brien, assignee of the contract of T. J.
O'Brien, who has the restaurant privileges
In the pavilion at the lake reaort. The pe
tition for the appointment of the receiver
was filed by the Interstate Amusement com
pany, which claimed to have an Interest
in the business conducted by O'Brien at
the lake which has not been properly safe
guarded. Claim of Company.
In Its petition the Interstate Amusement
company alleges that on May 28 of this
year It acquired possession and control of
the lake reaort by lease and also acquired
an assignment of the contract of T. J.
O'Brien with the Manawa Amusement com
pany, together with all the rights of the
Manawa Amusement company under that
contract.
T. J. O'Brien's contract for the use of the
pavilion, together with the refreahment
privileges, it Is stated in the petition, pro
vided for the payment by him of 10 per
cent of all receipts from these privileges
to the Amusement company. A proper ac
counting was had between O'Brien and the
company during the seasons of 1904, 1906
and 1906, but this year, it Is claimed, he
has declined to make any such accounting
and has assigned his contract and given
a bill of sale of the property at the lake.

K. jr. irurien. '
Threatens to Abandon Xtoal.
The Interstate Amusement company
charges that R. F. O'Brien threatens to
abandon the contract and discontinue the
operation of the restaurant and other re
freahment privileges and has refused to
make an accounting of the receipts as
provided In the contract. The abandon
ment of the contract, the petitioning com
pany asserts, would mean a material loss
to It. The further charge Is made that
O'Brien has failed to meet his obligations
and says It believes this Is done purposely
to permit the claims to mature and ul
timately resulting In the closing - of tho
restaurant In the pavilion at the lake. Re
ceiver Mahoney under the order of the
courts Is authorised to take possession of
the place and continue Its operation under
the contract.
When Judge Wheelor convened district
court yesterday, notice of Judge Mc
pherson's order had not been served upon
counsel for the petitioning directors of
the Fish and Game Protective association
and Attorney G. H. Scott, who Is counsel
for the petitioners, of which he himself
Is one, requested that the court proceed
with the hearing of the application for
a temporary Injunction restraining the sale
of Intoxicating liquor at the Lake Manawa
resort. Judge Wheeler, however, declined
( to accede to the request and a few minutes
I later Attorney Tlnley appeared In the
court room with the order from the United
; States court. After perusing the order
Attorney Scott picked up his papers and
retired from the court room.

sion as a drainage board to consider mut
ters In connection with the Allen creek.
Willow creek and Boyer cutoff ditches, now
In course of construction.
Beth Dean, supervising engineer, reported
that work on the Allen creek and Willow
creek ditches was progressing most satis
factorily and that the contractors were
working night and day gangs on both
ditches. The Pollard-Campbclt compsny,
which took over the contract of the West
ern Dredging company for the Boyer cutoff
ditches, expects to have Its dredge at work
on this portion of the drainage system by

W. A. Smith, who had the original con
tract for the Boyer cut -off ditch, before the
drainage law was declared unconstitutional
and amended, filed a claim for $4,000 for
work done by him on this ditch. Mr. Smith
asked that he either be given the sum
named or else be permitted to complete
the contract! As a new contract was
awarded the supervisors cannot now allow
Mr. Smith to complete his original contract
and the question of the amount due him
for work done under the original contract
waa referred to Supervising Engineer Dean
to report on at the next meeting of the
drainage board, which will be July 22.
The supervisors of Pottawattamie county
will meet today as a drainage board to
consider matters In connection with the
Pigeon creek ditch. It la likely that a
bond Issue will be authorised today, as
payments must be made on the work com
pleted to date.

DISCUSS SOCIALISM
Indication That Subject Will Canae
Si.llt In the Western
Federation.
DENVER, Co'o., Ji-ne 21. The ronventl n
of the Western Federation of Miners spent
the entire forenoon In discussing the pro-
lows:
"We hold that there Is a class struggle In
, .o.lety and that this struggle is cauned by
, economic conditions; that the producer Is
exploited of the wealth he produces; that
class struggle will continue until the pro
ducer Is recognised as the sole master of
the product; that the working' class must
achieve its own emancipation and that tho
Industrial union of all utu-ful workers Is the
surest and wisest method of attaining this
end.
"Therefore we. the wage slaves em
ployed In and among the mines, mills snd
smelters of the United Htftt.-s and Canaila.
have associated In the Western federation
of Miners, the rnlnlng department of the
Industrial workers of the world."
Percy Rawllng of Q.ildfleld. Nev.. a leader
of the radicals, who are In control of the
convention, said In the course of his speech
that there can be no friendly relations be
tween the employer and employe because
there never can be friendly relations be
tween any thief and the man he robs., He
advocated discarding the present preamble,
and said he wanted to go on record as the
enemy of all employers of labor. This sen
timent was greeted with great applause.
The conservative element predicted a re
volt In the organisation If the new pre
amble should be adopted. They said it waa
only the opening wedge of the socialist
party to gain complete control of the West

Discriminate Axalnat Farmers.
Martin M. Wright, manager of the
Farmers' Elevator at Wlghtman, Ia., on
the' Great Western, has written a letter
to the Iowa Railroad commission In which
he charges that the Great Western has dis
criminated against his firm in the matter
of furnishing cars. He claims to have or
dered three cars for grain for Chicago on
May 30th. but did not get the cats till
June 8, and that they were not taken out
till June 11. During all this time he al
leged the price of grain was steadily de
clining and he lost S1G0 on the three cars of
grain. He claims that when his company
got a site on the Great Western It was
given to understand that It had to divide
business with the line elevator. The com
mission will make an Investigation of the
matter.
Has Secured Rlaht-of-Way.
It developes since the arrest of John A.
Cox that a considerable part of the right-of-way
of the proposed Intemrban from
Council Bluffs to the northeast corner of
the state at Elkader had already been se
cured and the line waa far on Its way. It
Is claimed the line will also extend to
Muscatine, and that the corporation back
of It Is ths American Electric Railway
company. The company has been work
ing for nine months without the facts be
coming known and In that time had made
three surveys between Des Moines and
Greenfield In Adair county. Contracts
were made for nearly half of the right-of-way
for that distance. The company has
beadquurters in the Clapp block in this
city in charge of C. W. Baker.

fer to the Implied challenge of William J.
Bryan, who In addressing the Chautauqua
yesterday said he wished Secretary Taft
In his speech today would give his views
on the trusts and other live political issues.
Secretary Taft aald:
"The distinguished citizen of Nebraska
who addressed you yesterday showed a
care and an anxiety for my welfare that
I very much appreciate In that he at
tempted to point out what would be a
good subject for me to discuss In this
presence. Now I am entirely willing to
follow, when circumstances permit, the
advice of so good a leader on political
topics, but f had prepared myself to dis
cuss another subject.
"I beg to remind the distinguished Ne
braskan that mors than six months ago
I had ths honor, before a large number of
audiences of American citizens, to discuss
the subject of trusts, of the regulation of
tho railroads and of the revision of the
tariff, and that that discussion proceeded
as It should proceed from a member of the
administration, from the standpoint of
those who are charged with the responsi
bility of carrying out public policies, and
not of making declaratory statements for
use in platforms only; that the result of
the campaign in which these views were
announced on behalf of the administration
not only by me, but by other representa
tives of the republican party, was that a
republican congress was returned to carry
out these policies on the basis of those an
nouncements and that when the appropri
ate time shall come to renew the dis
cussion I shall bo glad to take my humble
part In setting forth those views again
which I have not changed up to date."
The subject of Secretary Taft's address
was "The Panama Canal," and the large
audience evinced great Interest In his care

done and which Is now In progress In the
