    TIIE OMAIIA DAILY HKE; FRIDAY, MAltCH 20, 3903.
One week ago today we used the term legitimate in refer
ring to our March Tiano Sale. We stated that this sale was not
a specially "baked-up" proposition that our prices represented
8n actual saving from the regular retail prices and .that our
magnificent ritock of pianos at our salesrooms in this city repre
sented euch makes of world-wide fame as Steinway, Steger, Emer
son, Ilardman, McPhail, A. B. Chase and others, was not to be
classed with a miscellaneous collection of pianos picked up here
and there wherever a bargain might be secured.
Now, what happened? Two days later a peculiar condition
was apparent in the piano selling situation to the readers of
Omaha's Sunday papers. Among our honorable contemporaries:
One declared with an "honest cross my heart" expression that their sale
was absolutely legitimate, and that their collection was of an extremely high
order. Prices, however. Indicated a sale of second-hand instruments.
Another dealer became mixed up in a varnish talk. One would have sup
posed from the headlines that a paint proposition was up for discussion. How
ever, with folded hands they declared that really there was no need. Don't
you know of any price reductions on their pianos?
Tet another made a discovery that he had a few instruments which the
dear public might have and he really thought he needed room because of one
or two instruments arriving weekly.
But none dared to meet our proposition of
Pianos at Wholesale
For very good reasons. The purchasing power of the firm of Bchmoller
A Mueller in the world's piano markets is such aa to buy pianos in such quan
tities and at such prices as no other Omaha firm can hope to secure. We are
able then to even throw off our accustomed retail profit sell pianos at whole
sale price to individual buyers and yet realize a small profit on each in
strument.' Now for a little inside history about our March Sale. Our sales last fall
and up until January 1, were greatly curtailed on account of the panic. While
January and February have done magnificently with their sales totals, yet we
found on an Inventory March 1, 200 New Uprights which ought to have been
sold months before. We sized the situation up without delay, announced a
sale of thefle instruments at wholesale figures and will continue to give you
the benefit of the difference between the retail price you have to pay any where
else for such instruments now, and the wholesale prices at which they are
quoted.
These prices are $218, f 230 and $278. i ; '
If you desire terms we will gladly sell you one of these Instruments on
easy payments of $1 week. We also include sixty-five Used Uprights in the
best of repair, at $75, $85 and up, and twenty-five Square Pianos at $25, $35
and $45.
No other Piano House is in a position to meet the prices quoted on such
instruments as we are offering. Neither can you hope to secure terms as
favorable as we are granting to piano buyers. For your own good inspect
our magnificent stocks of Instruments, compare our prices with others, and
you will be In a position then to realize why the house of Schmoller &
Mueller has occupied the enviable position in music circles throughout the west
since 1859.
You are cordially invited to pay us a visit at our salesrooms, and we will
endeavor to make your visit pleasant and profitable. Friday and Saturday
are good daya in which to talk this piano question over with us.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, March 19. (Special Telegram.)
The supreme court this morning denied
the application of the Union Pacific rail
road for a writ of mandamus to compel
the State Board of Assessment to recon
vene and make a record of objections and
a finding of fact. The court held that
mandamus would not He to compel the
board to make a record or a finding of
fact not required by law.
The opinion holds that the State Board of
Assessment In valuing property for taxa
tlon aots in a quasi-Judicial capacity and
Its action Is not subject to collateral at
tack, except on grounds of fraud or other
wrongful conduct equivalent thereto or for
the exercise of power not conferred by
law. The UnlonJ Paclflo filed a petition for
mandamus to compel the board to make a
record showing just how It reached the
value of Its pioperty.
Hamblla-s Life Is Saved.
John G. Hamblln of Grand Island, sea
tr-noed to be hanged for the murder of
Rachel Engle, will not be executed.' The
supreme court today, commuted the sen.
tence to life Imprisonment at hard labor
and, recommended that he be .not released
from confinement. Th court said grave
doubts existed as to the mental and physi
cal condition of the murderer at th time
of th commission of th crime and for
that reason the sentence was commuted.
Louis N. Went of Lincoln, whoee horse,
Tlmberlaln, died while being shipped from
Lincoln to Missouri by way of the Burling
ton, received a verdict for $2,000 against th
railroad In the supreme court. The court
set aside Its former verdict which was. In
favor of the railroad and affirmed the de
cision of the lower court.
RoatsaJaa aad Beatley Lea.
In the matter of the case against O. M.
Routiahn and W. A. Bentlny, th former
at one time chief of police and the latter
a detective In Lincoln, th supreme court
held that the lower court erred In refusing
to permit the introduction of testimony
tending to show that these men, as police
officers, had received money from keepers
of houses of prostitution, other than In the
particular case being tried. Th lower
court refused to permit th testimony of
women other than th one named In the
case. The men wer charged with having
held up th house of Ill-fame for S50 a
month and were cleared.
County Attorney Tyrrell brought the case
to the supreme court for a ruling on th
matter of the Introduction of testimony,
Packing Company Verdict Holds.
Christiana Henry of South Omaha, wins
her case against the Omaha Packing com
pany for damages for Injuries, the supreme
court having affirmed the decision of tho
lower court. The woman was employed by
th Packing company and having been
sick while at work, was taken home In a
buggy belonging to an employe. The horse
ran away and the woman was Injured. She
secured a verdict for damages In the lower
court.
Salt Over Bartler Homestead.
The supreme court , has quieted title to
the Joseph B. Hartley homestead In Holt
county In Hugh A. Allen. In th same
decision it holds that the sale of a home
stead under an ordinary execution during
the temporary absence of th owner is
voii. Th decision of the lower court Is
reversed. Alien brought the suit to quiet
title to himself and lost out m the lower
court, th defendant being the county of
Holt.
Road Ordered to Balld Snitch.
The Judgment of the district court of
Richardson county, compelling the Mis
souri Paclflo company, to build a transfer
switch to the property of th Farmers
Elevator company, at Btrausvllle, Is af
firmed by a decision written by Commis
sioner Duffle.
Following the decision given two weeks
ago, given In th case of the Manley Co
operative Grain association of Cass county,
the court holds that th statute of 1906,
relating to the building of transfer switches
to elevators la not subject to the objection
of being special legislation or of allowing
th taking of private property without just
compensation, and the power of determin
ing the duties of railroad companies toward
th publlo la vested in the courts of the
state. The opinion says that "to deny to
the state th power to requtr th erection
of depots, the construction of sidetracks
and such other facilities aa th publlo
necessities ' require would enable railway
companies to create a monopoly in handling
the products of the country adjacent to
their Un and to turn It over to whomever
they chose."

another contract with th state for con
victs at cents a day each. Already
several lettere have been received from
Interested parties for Information regard
ing th contract now In fore and the
board expects to receive several bids. In
addition to getting convicts at K cents a
day to make brooms, the Lee company
U so furnlr.hed power and heat and con
siderable mcchinery has been bought by
the state In order to furntnh this power
and heat which otherwise would not have
been necessary. The state does not compel
the company to stamp Its products "peni
tentiary made good," consequently It can
compete with any other concern which Is
not favored by cheap labor. Nebraska
manufacturers have written the board that
they pay from tl to S3 a day for broom
makers and they are compelled to furnish
their own heat and power, which makes It
almost Impoeslble to compete with the firm
having the contract with the state. The
records show that In 1B02, when Governor
Savage was in office the board made a
contract with the Lee company for 45
cents a day for convicts In addition to
"runners," who were paid nothing. In
those daya R. J. Clancy, who has during
th last few years been conspicuously be
fore the public was secretary to Governor
Savage and h held up the contract so the
records show and forced the Insertion of
th old price, 60 cents a day. The new
contract ia to be made soma time In the
latter part of May or June.
Crete Wants Telegraph Operator.
A number of cltlxens of Crete have peti

Itallaas oa Telephone Rates.
The State Railway commission has
granted permission to the telephone com
pany at Battle Creek, to make a rate of
$1S a year to farmers and business men In
place of the 118 rate. If the users will pay
In advance S6.S0 twice a year. If the users
pay by the month they can get telephones
for 116 a year. Th commission figures It
Is not violating th principle It laid down
when It refused to permit telephone com
panies to sell 1130 coupon books for X100.
When this question came up the commis
sion held this was discrimination because
not many people could afford to buy the
coupon books. Th commission figures
most any on can pay the $6.50 in advance.
The Humboldt Telephone company has
asked permission of the railway commission
to Increase Its rates to farmers who built
their own metalllo lines from 76 cents to
tl.26 a month. This la the price paid by
others who use the wires put up by the
company. Th commission concluded to
allow the company to make the Increase
providing the users did not come. In by
April 1 and show good cause why the' order
should not be Issued.
Railroad Denies Jurisdiction.
To the complaint against a Burlington

this morning filed answer with the State
Railway commission. General Solicitor
Kelby In his answer said the matter dldj
