COUNCIL SAYS BUY CAS PLANT

STRENUOUS DAYF0R YACHTS rjjjj m PRODUCE MARKET
Tha purehnse of tha Omaha, gas plant. In
ha opinion of tha city council, la tha only
solution of tha Baa question.
"An effort to Issue bonda for tha con
struction of a municipal plant only would
delay tha aolutlon flva or tlx yeara or until
the plant could ba completed," declared
Councilman Jackson at tha meeting of tha
committee of tha whole Monday afternoon.
Othera took tha aama view and whan
Councilman Sheldon moved to recommend
tha purchasing ordinance for passage the
motion prevailed without opposition. At
the aama tlma, on motion of Jackaon, tha
ordinance to build a plant was consigned
to the file. The two ordinances were pre
sented to tha eommlttee by Chairman
Funkhouser of tha lighting- committee with
the statement that the lighting committee
had no recommendation to make, although
It believed both ordlnancaa 'could ba passed
and then,' If the bond propositions both
carried, one could be used aa a club on
the gas company. Discussion of the two
propositions lacked Interest and apparently
few of the councilman knew what they
were voting for when the purchasing ordl
nance was recommended for passage.
Osrbxr Q a rat Ion Leader.
The garbage question occupied by far
the greater part of the time of the commit
tee seaalon, Councilman Zlmman and
Health Commissioner Connell being the
chief orators, and action on the proposed
Mw ordinance by Dr. Connell waa deferred
until some changea concerning the designa
tion of garbage could be Inserted so aa more
nearly to conform to the vlewa of all. The
exchange of compliments between Council
man Zlmman and Dr. Connell over the al
leged similarity of the ordinance to the
Denver ordinance were brisk and each
characterised the remarks of the other at
times as untrue. Dr. Connell Insisted that
his ordinance was practically a copy of
the Denver ordinance with but a few slight
and meaningless changea In phraseology.
Tha alteration. Insisted Zlmman, waa great
because of a regular construction of tha
teflnltlon of garbage to be hauled free, In
the Denver ordinance It Included .all kinds
f refuse, while tha Connell ordlnanoe only
tpeolfled animal, vegetable and fruit refuse
and required It to be separated from other
garbage and ashes. Zlmman declared that
many of the counctlmen voted for the orig
inal garbage ordinance and assented to
the contract under the Impression .that all
garbage was to be hauled free of expense
to the ctttsens. After several readings of
tha Denver ordlnanoe on motion of Council-
toian Funkhouser the entire matter went
ever for a week. Councilman McGovern
warned the members that he would Insist
on everyone being prepared on garbagu
for the next meeting.
Tweaty-Foarth Garbing-.
Assistant City Engineer Crick reported
that tha curbing on South Twenty-fourth
street had bean lnspeoted, a number of
f dqfecta found and remedied by the oon-
tractors and recommended that the final
sstlmat be now allowed. President John
son presented a. almtlar report and moved
to allow the eatlmate at Tuesday night's
meeting.
The, several, sign ordinances , came up for
brief discussion. Attorney John V. Bat
tin, on behalf of merchants objeotlng to
the street sign ordinance, asked that the
city attorney ba instructed to defer pro
ceedings against violators of the ordlnanoe
until after the Introduction and oonsldera
tlon oX a new street sign ordinance to be
introduced Tuesday night, aim on sugges
ttai premised to have a resolution to that
fcawMt Introduced tonight
Vtt pending billboard ordinance waa
amended to apply to sale signs erected
on vaoant property, and so amended was
recommended to pass. Then a communica
tion from the Real Estate exchange, ask
ing for tha erection of permanent eigne to
designate the streets, was received and
passed over until the next meeting. The
frultatand ordlnanoe, removing frultstanda
from certain seotlona of tha business dis
trict, and the lunch wagon ordinance, re
quiring lunch wagons to be kept off the
streets between the hours of 6 a. m, and
I p. m., wore both recommended tor pas
sage.

The city will not supply apparatus for
the Juvenile city playground this year. A
petition from tha Juvenile olty was pre
sented by Director W. a Fraser, who
etated that the park board was favorably
considering the proposition of establish
ing a permanent playground for the L900
Juveniles now using the present grounds.
lie asked that the olty supply the appa
ratus for fixing up tha grounds. At the
luggestlon of Councilman Brucker, who de
Blared that the city did not hare enough
money at this time, but would be In bet
ter shape next year, the petition was plaoed
n Die.
The committee decided that all bids
inouia De rejected for alley paving In
districts from which objections have been
Med, and that the contracts should ba ap
proved for districts from whloh no com
plaint has oome. This waa done after a
few remarks by McGovern, who did not
think a eonorete base ,neoeaaary for block
paving In alleys. The dletrlcts la which
bids were rejected are those for tha alleys
between. Chicago . and Cass, from Seven
teenth to Eighteenth, and from Nlnteenth
to Twenty-nrst, and between Cass and Call

There la blood on the moon!
Strikes have become so popular that
even the caddies at the Country club have
caught the spirit and refused to work un
less they get an Increase In pay. The cad
dies went on a strike Saturday afternoon
and left some very mad golfers on th
links. The strikers organized and waged
soma Uvoly fistic battles with the boys who
Insisted on staying at work, the situation
getting so serious at one tlm that the
marshal of Benson was sent for to drive
the strikers from the grounds. They left
to go swimming, declaring they would not
work Monday or let any other caddies
work. Those who go to th links this
afternoon are wondering whether or not
they will find any caddies there. The boys
ave been getting 30 cents for a round of
eighteen holes and they demand 80 cents.

r'A'fiT.r.ir PM,.inti nf cattle, both here
and at all other market points, were large
thla mnrnlni' Local receipts consisted
laraelv of western cows ana reeaere, wun
a moderate sprinkling of fat steers. Ad
vices from all points were very meager
owing to the telegraphers' strike, but such
information as it was possioie 10 aov-urc in
dicated lower prices at all points. Locally
tha market waa notn Slow ana lower ana
the friranonn was far advanced before
enough business had been transacted to
really call it a maraei.
Packers were very late In starting out
and thwy all seemed thoroughly Impressed
with the Idea that prices oua-ht to be lower
both on account of liberal runs as wen ss
on account of conditions prevailing at other
selling points. The result was a very auu
and late market on both comfeds and
rangers, with prices pretty generally lOo
lower. 11 was aiier miaaay neiore any'
thins; like a clearance was effected.
The receipts or cows and heirera were tne
largest they have been so far this season,
almost half of the receipts consisting of
that Kind or cattle. 'AS price last ween,
even after the decline, were high, it was
only natural that packers should take ad
vantage or the situation to force valuas
downward to a point more nearly In ac
cordance with their Ideas regarding values.
They started out bidding away lower and
the trade was a drag rom start to finish.
It was well along in the afternoon before
anything like a ciearanoe was efrected.
Prices were anywhere from 10a to Sto lower
than last week, according to the kind and
Quality of the stuff.
The stocker and feeder market closed bad
last week. B peculators who had been free
buyers early In the week were unable to
unload and an unusually large number nf
cattle had to be carried over Sunday. With
a gooa many cattle already on hand, it
waa not surprising that speculators were
poor buyers this morning, leaving the mar
ket without very much support. A few of
me pest cattle wnicn were wanted to fill
special orders did not sell so very much
lower, as high as 85 being paid for atiiotlv
mnrtA tr ithnlfl. 9AmTm fin th. A.h.a haa.,!
holders of medium to common kinds of
feeders and stockers found it an exceed
ingly nard matter to unload with the mar
ket safely 60e lower at least than at the
beginning or last week.

lifted prices to the highest again, and an
other Interval of profit taking waa without
much effect on the list. New York Central,
