SHOOTING AT SOUTH OMAHA
Frank Caraher Probably Fatally Hurt
In Mysterious Way.
GUH FIRED FROM UTTER STORY
J. O'Connor, Wis Had Been Oceany
laar Room from Which Shot
Was Fired, Held as
aspect. '
Frank Caraher, eon of Brrnard Caraher.
living at S21 R street, waa shot under mys
terious circumstances Monday night Just
before midnight. The weapon used was a
single-barreled shotgun loaded with coarse
shot. The charge was fired from an upper
room In Kushlnek A Deegan's saloon,
Tblrty-third and Q streets, which room
overlooks a small enclosure at the back
used as a summer garden. Caraher
Ilea In a dying condition at the South
Omaha hospital. The entire charge
struck him In the lower region of the
pelvis, shattering the whole groin In a
terrible manner. 1 It Is believed that the
Internal Injuries cannot but prove fatal
within a day or two.
The police arrested J. O'Connor as a
suspect. He Is a brother-in-law of Deegnn
and has 'been occupying the room from
which the shot was fired. The gun, with
one exploded cartridge, was found In the
room. There were also some loaded car
tridges. The gun was found on the bed.
O'Connor Is said to have admitted having
them, but denies that he fired the shot.
Held as Witnesses.
Morris Deegan, who was In charge of the
saloon at the time, said that he was on
the point of closing up and that several
men were In the summer garden drinking
when he heard the shot fired. He saw Cnr-
aher topple over and ran to his aid. Stacy
Floyd and Tom McLaughlin, who were
with Caraher. were held aa witnesses by j
the officers. The ambulance was called and
the man was taken to the hospital. This
makes the third man lying there at pres
ent from gunshot wounds.
It Is likely that several operations will be
attempted, hoping to save the man's life.
The police hold to the theory that O'Con
nor was trying to sleep In the room above ;
and that the men below made too much
noise and becoming provoked he slezed the j
gun and fired downward out of the window i
with no particular aim; possibly hoping to J
frighten the men below. His shot went
truer than he thought and did terrible
execution. The wad from the charge hit
one of the other men on the arm and
raised a large welt. The evidence has not
developed enough to determine what the
charge will be. It may be that only man
slaughter would be made In case of death
of the victim. Caraher is a well known
character In police circles and his acci
dental shooting, if It Is such, has not awak
ened profound regret among the officers.
Qneenan Wants Books.
Tax Commissioner W. H. Queenan re
newed his demand on the city clerk for the
books which he filed with the clerk last
Saturday and which the clerk refused to
allow out of his custody afterward. It Is
likely that the clerk will be mandamuaed
by the commissioner, who asserts that tho
books are his by right. The clerk Just as
vigorously asserts that the law makes these
books on their being filed a part of the
records of the city clerk's office and sub
ject only to his direction. He says the
object of the law Is that the books of the
clerk may be as a check on the tax lists
which are submitted to the city treasurer.
The tax commissioner Is much exercised
over the matter. He made an appeal to
the city attorney and the mayor since the
books left his possession, with the result
that an . ordinance was Introduced "at the
council meeting defining the authority which
the city clerk had over the books of the
tax commissioner. The ordinance declares
that the clerk shall be the custodian of
the records and books filed by the tax com
missioner and engineer, but It declares that
the tax commissioner shall have the use
of them during offlce hours. The Jntent
of the ordinance Is to adjust the differences.
The clerk declared that he would act only.
under a mandamus of the court. He said
that he would allow the tax commissioner
access to the books for the purpose of
copying them and furnish him a desk If he
desired, but he would not let them go out
of the office. He holds that they would
be Invalidated In law by so doing. The
clerk denied that he would be a rival candi
date for the office at the next municipal
election.
City Conncll Proceeding;.
All affairs of the council were of routine
nature last night. The ordinance relating
to the duties of the city clerk and the
claim agent In the matter of the sidewalk
notices was passed. This repeals a section
of a former ordinance.
The ordinance permitting the Standard
OH company to erect tanks was again
passed and probably will stand this time.
The Standard Oil company has Its tanks
on the ground and the foundations have
been built. It la likely that the tanks will
be erected with haste, fearing the council
may again repeal tha permit as on the
former occasion.
The report of the city meat Inspector
showed the condemnation of twenty-one
cattle, Ave sheep, three calves and two
hogs.
The heads of the various departments
were ordered to make a report of all city
property under their care.
Special ordinances 194 to 197 were recom
mended for passage. They relate to grad
ing and sidewalk assessments.
Byrnes and F. J. Moriarty were allowed
warrants from the Judgment fund $572 33

of Interest was the presentation of I he
claim of George McCracken through his at
torneys, Smith Smyth of Omaha, for ths
full amount of his contract with the
Board of Education as principal of the
high school for one year.
Perry Wheeler Is now city principal
of public schools In South Omaha. At
leust lie hus the office and as "possession
Is nine points of law", his friends consider
him safely entrenched. They also con
sider that he has defeated his opponent,
George McCracken, who claims title te
the place. Mr. McCracken does not sgree
with Mr. Wheeler and hla friends and will
carry his disagreement Into the courts
with a view of ousting his rival. He has
filed a protest already.
Mr. Wheeler was appointed to the po
sition by the new board of education,
while Mr. McCracken had already been ap
pointed to the place by the old board about
April 1. McCracken claims prior right to
the place on the grounds that hla appoint
ment was absolutely valid and the status
of his creators legal.
Mr. Wheeler took possession of the of
flce Monday morning and now regards
himself and Is regarded by his friends
as the legal principal of South Omaha
for et least a year.
The city superintendent elected by the
old bonrd. N. M. Graham, also took poses
sion of the office yesterday morning after
the same manner aa the principal, al
though there was no protest of the offlce In
hla case. It was anticipated that J. A.
McLean, the former superintendent, might
be re-elected over the action of the old
board, but It appears that the new board
contemplates no such thing.
At the board meeting last night the at
torney made a report to the effect that the
claim of George McCracken be not allowed
and stated his grounds that the contract
would be attacked as to Its validity on a
number of grounds involving the jurisdic
tion of the old board.
The retiring principal, N. M. Graham,
made a report of the collecetlons from
special sources such as laboratory fines and
fees.
The board purchased the school site for
the new building at Sixteenth and II streets.
The lots offered by Jones & Co., being lots
1, 2 and S of block 145, were selected at
$1,700. Sam Hunter was awarded the con
tract for grading the same at 26 cents per
yard.
The superintendent was Instructed to
compile a list of supplies and to report the
same to the supplies committee, which was
empowered to advertise for bids on the
same and to award the contracts.
The examining board reported the fol

the outset, but will In the meanwhile see
what the other fellow has In his other
hand. Th club will take no part in tho

of th ticket nominated by the republicans
of the county."
