ANDREW J. KENDRICK BUfilED
Former Omaha Newspaper Man Who
Shoots Himself at Rest at
Fort Smith.
Andrew Jackson Kendrick, who shot him
self In New York Sunday and died a day
or two later, was burled Wednesday at
Fort Smith, Ark., where he resided and
was editor and owner of tha News-Record.
This Information came to his Omaha
friends, who were numerous.
Mr. Kendrlck's suicide was due to 111
health, which preyed upon a highly nerv
ous temperament. He had achieved distinct
success in his chosen pursuit, the news
paper business, and was in a position best
to enjoy the fruits of his arduous labor
when a nervoua collapse came aome three
months ago. City editor of The Bee, city
editor of th Chicago New and finally
editor and owner of one of the most In
fluential papers in his portion of the south,
Mr. Kendrick had continued successful.
His breakdown Is traced to a collapse he
had while city editor of th Chicago News
Just after the reign of terror of the an
archists, which culminated In the Hay
market riot.
Some year or so ago Mr. Kendrick, who
had made a close study of the Industrial
side of the south, was commissioned by
James J. Hill to go to the Orient and ex
ploit the cotton trade. On that trip he
passed through Omaha, stopping -to visit
with some of his old friends.
About three months ago when his break
down cam Mr. Kendrick wa obliged to
relinquish the management of his paper to
his brother and ha went to a sanitarium In
Buffalo and thence to New York, where h
hoped to recover hi health.

HAMM GETS AFTER TRADE
St. Paul Brewery with DtstrlbatlnsT
Center In Omaha Begins Crn
vaad for Business.
J. E. Davison, local manager of the
Omaha branch of the Theodore Hamm
Brewing company of St. Paul, which has
Just opened Its branch In Omaha, has
started hi. crusade for business In Omaha.
"We expect to make the Hamm product
one of the best known brews In Omaha,"
said Mr. Davison. We have the largest
and best known brewery in the northwest
and have started our crusade for business
In this territory. Our buslnesa at St. Paul
has shown a wonderful Increase and wa ar
branching out." '
Mr. Davison formerly had charge of the
Iowa and southern Minnesota territory,
where he was successful, and has bean put
In charge of the Omaha branch because of
his well known ability to push trade.
N. B. Abbott, advertising manager of the
Theodore Hamm Brewing company, ar
rived In Omaha Wednesday morning to
look over the situation with reference to
an advertising campaign.
''Our Arm has decided upon Omaha as a
distributing point for the western terri
tory," said Mr. Abbott. "Our business has
shown an enormous Increase this year and
w are spending over t-W.ooO In the erec
tion or a new stock bouse to keep pace
with our growing trade. There is an In
creasing demand for bottle bear each year
and the output of, our bottle beer depart
ment Increased over 40 per cent last year,
and this year' record bids fair to beat that
of last year.
"The Arm looked over several other
western cities before locating this branch
and finally decided that Omaha offered the
best advantages. With Mr. Davison' well
known ability as a hustler there is no ques
tion but Hamm's beer will soon be one of
the best known In tha west."
MUCH SEWER WORK COMING
Construction Work Wtll Oeeapy Long;
Time In the Coming
t Year.
Sewer construction will occupy Omaha to
a considerable extent during the coming
year. In addition to the big Ixard street
outlet there will be constructed this year
If possible the California street sewer,
which was authorised by the council Tues
day night and plans are under way for the
construction of th Jones street relief
ewer to a point near the corner of Twen
tieth and Center streets.
The California street project 1 consid
ered the most Important at present, aa It
will relieve a comparatively large portion
of tha central part of the city from storm
water, which has for years torn up pave
ments and damaged property. This sewer
will start at the corner of Sixteenth and
California streets, where It will Join the
sewer to the river, run thence to Twenty
third street on California street, thence to
Casa street on Twenty-third, thence to
Twenty-fourth, thence to Chicago, thence
to Twenty-fifth and will end at Twenty--fifth
and Dodge streets. This sewer ulti
mately will be connected with new sewer
to be built along Chicago and Davenport
street west of Twenty-fifth. The sewer
will be forty-two Incho In diameter at Its
southwestern end and It capacity will be
sufficient to handle storm water falling at
the rate of two Inches per hour.
The' extension of th Jone treet relief
ewer 1 a matter of longer time, but It will
care for more ground than that In the Cal
ifornia street sewer district. The Intention
Is to run the aewor from Its present west
ern end north along the railroad tracks
crossing these tracks near the viaduct and
running along the government corral. It
Is expected to care for water from those
streets which are now flooded every time
i rain falls.
GARNISHMENT LAW FRUITS
Many Cases Under IVew Statnte Will
Soon Be In the Justice
Courts.
Oarnlahment proceedings under the new
law will soon be numerous In local Justice
courts, says the July number of the Re
tail Merchanta' Journal, whose editor Is
the manager of a local credit bureau and
ougl t to know. The Journal Bay:

ploy of the company. These companies will
surely get tired of appearing In court so
many times, even If they do get II for
each appearance, for that will not nearly
pay them for the time and trouble to ao

moral effect of the law will be the greater
benefit to the merchant than the 10 per cent
that he would get by attaching the sal

EACH BOY ACCUSES OTHER I
Basil Mullen Sayi He Only Helped

LAYS 02TUS ON HIS TWO PALS
Admits netting- Part of the Money
Police Express Confidence In
Capturing Pnmphrey, Last
of Trto.
Basil Mullen the second of tbe trio to
face the charge of murdering Han Pak
the Douglas street Chinaman, was brnught
to the Omaha city Jail by Detective Steve
Moloney early Wednesday morning from
Lenox, la., where he was arrested.
"The others did It," he says, "1 helped,
but they started It. I went away with
them and I got part of the money."
The confession which he made to the
police Wednesday morning does not agree
with Allmack's story of the crime. The
police believe each of the boys Is trying
to shift th burden of the blame on the
other two.
"Doo" Pumphrey will soon be appre
hended If the plans of Chief of Detectives
Savage are successful.
Th two captives were taken into police
court Wednensday morning for arraign
ment, but the county attorney decided to
delay that action. The complaints wore
filed against them before extradition papers
were obtained and the only process neces
sary before they can be tried Is the ar
raignment before the police Judge, after
which, If the state Is successful, they wilt
be bound over to th district court. Tha
boy have not yet engaged lawyera to de
fend them.
Both Boy Are Scared.
Allmack and Mullen were together In
police court, but did not speak. They both
appeared to be wrestling with an attack
of excited nerves, which their extremo
youth does not help. Chief Donahue posi
tively refused to allow the newspapers to
Interview Mullen.
If either Allmack or Mullen has thrown
any light upon the present location of their
pal, Pumphrey, whose card to Miss Parr
gave the tip which led to th arrest of
Allmack In St Louis, the police have not
divulged the fact. They appear confident,
however, of having Pumphrey within a
little while. He Is said to be with some rela
tives In a small town near St. Louis.
Mullen Rather Loquacious.
Mullen has been much more talkative
since his arrival In Omaha than Allmack,
but he has not been allowed to confer with
anyone, but the detectives and the County
attorney. His confession to th police wss
practically a clean breast of th whole
matter, He told how the three beat the
Chinaman Into Insensibility and then took
his money, a little over tlOO, and went on
the first train out of OmaTia.
"It's a pretty bad business," he said to
one of the officers." I don't like to b tn'xed
up In anything like a murder."
The two boy are Imprisoned separately
and hav not conferred together.

COUNCIL MAKES EXTRA WORK'
Separation of Street Contracts En
tails Some Added Expense.
ACTION VIOLATES ALL PRECEDENT
Allows Pinal Estimate for Pavlnsj
and Reject Them for Curbing
and Ciutterlngr Leavenworth
and Vinton Street.
Tha city engineer's office is facing extra
work on account of the action of the coun
cil In allowing the final estimate for paving
Twenty-fourth street from 'Leavenworth to
Vinton street and refusing to allow the
final estimate for curbing and guttering
the same.
Since the memory of man runneth not to
the contrary it has been the custom of the
council to allow these final estimates to
gether and the statistician of the en
gineer's office always has figured the as
sessments against abutting property on the
basis of both contracts. This t!me was no
exception and when the recommendation
for allowance of the estimates were made
the assessment figures were combined.
Now the man who handles the figures will
be compelled to revise tlio entire work nnd
two assessment sheet, for this district will
have to be prepared.
Elsaaser Asked to Show Where.
Incidentally the city engineer Invited
I Councilman Elsasser to take a rldo over
South Twenty-fourth street Wednesday. In
l his remarks before the council Tuesday
night Mr. Elsasser asserted thre were a
hundred places Where defects had been
found In the sidewalk. Mr. Rosewater j
could not find them when his Inspectors i
went over the work and he asked the
councilman to show him where they exist
There Is said to be some personal feeling
regarding this curbing and guttering. The
contractor wss discovered by the city en
gineer when trying to lay material not
permitted by the contract and waa com
pelled to change the proportions of hi
concrete. Again after the alleged com
pletion of the work, he was required to re
move everal hundred yards, which were
not up to specifications. Now the city
engineer's demands have all been complied !
with and he has approved the estimate, but
residents of the district protest. It was
alleged by Mr. Elsasser that the curbing
! broke when struck by a wagon wheel and
this brings out a statement that one resi
dent of tho district has made a practice
of attempting to break the curbing by
driving heavily loaded wagons against It
and that he was compelled to desist from
driving wagons over the curbing by the
city authorities.
