CONFER ON POWER CANA
Many Sides of Project Presented to
Committee of Citizeni.
IJASH OPPOSES BOND ISSUE
Clfy Kngloeer Rosewater, F. Jaeggi,
SwIii Banker, anal II. E. Babeoek
. Declare riaa la Roth Fossllle
and Practicable.
More light and some heat on the power
canal bond prcposillon was the result of
three-hour session M the cltisens' commit
UeSriamed by the city, council held at the
rooms of the Commercial club Wednesday
afternoon, wh'-n engineers, promoters and
sellers of power spoke, viewing the ques'
tion from as many points of view as there
were speakers and Interests represented,
. The committee asked each speaker the
three questions which the council put up
to the cltixens' committee, which are
1. Is there water rower near Omaha
hich can be developed?
2. Have estimates and aurvevs been made
which are accurate and practical!
wuai amount ol bonds should be
voia?
P. A. Nssh of the Omaha Blectrlc LlgM
and Power company answered the fleet
question in the negative. He said there
was not enough watPr Intha Ivjp river
to wash a man's feet and any thought of
developing any other stream wss worse
thsn a dream. To the seeond question Mr.
Nssh replied that no estimates nor surveys
had ever been made which were satin far
tory to bankers or Investors, though the
report of C. E. Main of Boston seemed to
be a satisfactory report. As to the third
question Mr. Nash thought the $3,000,000
would bring the power to the gates of
Omaha and then $1,500,000 would be a nec
canary expenditure for transformers and
distribution In the, city. Then a steam plant
would have to be constructed besides.
aih Denoances Project.
Mr. Nssh was positive in denouncing the
project and said the people who are al
ways talking about the disadvantage to
which South Omaha is put because of high
priced power, were totally ignorant of the
situation and doing the city a areat In
jury by giving publicity to every enter
prise which started "because there Is
something the matter with Omaha." H
ssld there was nothing the matter with
Omaha, but that the city had power
cheaper' than Minneapolis or Buffalo, and
Buffalo is within a short distance of the
great Niagara water power. He ssld
the streets were lighted at less cost than
In any city of the samalslze In the coun
try and defied anyone to refute the state
ment.
Estimating the cost of power on the horse
power basis, Mr. Nash declared his com
pany was furnishing the power as low
as $6 per horsepower per annum. He fig
ured simply that when a manufacturer in
stalled a 100 horsepower motor or a series
of motors, turning them on or off when
busy or idle, the cost In many instances
ran between $6 and 117 per horsepower per
year. This estimate, he admitted, was
not baaed on the motors running . any
given number of hours per day, but simply
furnished the power when needed during
the year.
City Engineer Rosewater Talks,
Then Andrew Rosewater, city engineer,
was given half an hour to discuss the
proposition. The answers to the ques
tion given by Mr. Rosewater were
vastly different from those given by Mr,
Nash. The city engineer said that there
wss water power near Omaha which could
be developed and the Fremont scheme to
use the water from either both the Loup
and Platte rivers was the scheme he
favored. He ridiculed any plan to use
the Missouri river.
As to the estimates and surveys. Mr.
Rosewater thought tho city would be
compelled to ' spend $10,000 for engineers,
reports and surveys and then the reports
and surveys should be analysed by a
board of competent engineers who . would
give the people an honest opinion. He asked
to be excused from answering the ques
tion' as to the amount of bonds necessary,
as the entire bond proposition wss in no
state to be discussed until the plans were
worked out and honest opinions secured
He thought 25,000 horsepower could be de
veloped at Fremont.
Preaeat Coat of Power.
To Mr. Nash, Mr. Rosewater replied wjth
some heat, on the question of furnishing
power for $6 per horse-power, per annum
He said Mr. Naah'a report showed It cost
the company over $16 per year for the col
consumed to furnish one horse-power) a
basis on which to compare Omaha with
other cities the power and light were both
costing: Omaha too much. But lie said,
there was no fixed standard la-fimaha and
it could not be nopea to compare tne cost
of power with the cost in other. cities.
He attacked the way in which promoters
advertised the horse-powj r which could be
developed and the amounts which he had
seen advertised as being; spent for engineer
4 in?
One of the most pleasant and convincing
talks made during tht afternoon was that
by F. Jaeggi, who With his Swiss associ
ates, has made a .definite propoaal to fi
nance the Loup riter power project, and is
In this country tor the purpose of com
pleting arrangenjenta, if possible.
Mr. Jaeggi is interested with H. K. Bab-
cock, who has been working on the propo
sition for years, and has spent $250,000 In
engineer's reports, surveys, buying right-of-
way and digging an Irrigation ditch.
Banker Jaeggi Favorable.
The Swsa banker said there is water
power tifar Omaha which could be de
veloped and the estimates made by engi
neers ave quite satisfactory. To the third
question Mr. Jaeggi replied that $4,OOJ,000
woulp construct a plant at Columbus whick
would develop some 50,000 horse-power. He
ssM the' company planned to lssuo suffi
cient stock and bonds to put in five plants
Which would develop 200,000 horse-power in
he future.
We have loaned many thousands of
dollars in Nebraska," he said, "in one way
or another, and we are pleased with the
returns wa have always received. Never
have we lost a dollar when Investing here,
ad our dealings with your"' people have
been very satisfactory." N
Woald Cat Cost la Two.
- Then the time waa given over to H. E.
Babcock, who said that while Omaha ele
vators wer. buyjng power for I cents per
k. w. .hour, the very lowest price made
by the local power company, tie could
prove that the water power deysloped on
the Loup river would cut that in two and
furnish It for 1 cent. - He said his figures
agreed with those presented by City Engi
neer f.osewater, except that by placing the
plant twenty-three miles further from the
mouth of the Loup river than the city
engineer had estimated, the company would
gafn in securing a drop ef more than 101
feet In the twenty-three miles, greatly in
creasing Uie horse-power.
Mr. pabcock read from a carefully pre
pared "brief" wlUch he had printed and
distributed to members ot the committee,
going over the question thoroughly and
mskjng careful comparisons with other
cltiu. and the cost of ' steam and water
power... . . .

Bsron Henry Louis de Glnzberg. second
cousin to Prince Helie de Sagsn, a cousin
of Count Bonl de Castellans and scion of
sn anient family of the French nobility,
is an Inmate of the county hospital. As
evidence he Is a seal French noblemsn It
Is pointed ot he has only 7 Cents. Accord
ing to his sthry he wss once wealthy and
honored, but ilosing his property In the
Boer wsr he ,was reduced to the necessity
of working for a living and now, ill and
unable to wlrk any longer, he has been
forced to ask) charity of the county.
Baron de- Ginsberg Is the name given by
the man who) bears a marked resemblsnce
In face. flgurT, dress and speech to French
men of the cultured class and who applied
for assistance at the hospital about
month ago. lie came from Kansas City to
South Omahk, where he worked for Theo
dore Vol, tailor, as a dyer and cleaner.
In Kansas City he had been In the dyeing
and cleaning business, he said, but had lost
all his moliey and bad been forced to take
to the road. He came as far as South
Omaha arid Worked there for a short time,
but he lias an organic trouble and was
unable to hold his Job. He Is very reticent
and wlU not knowingly talk to a news
paper man, notoriety being distasteful to
him. It was only recently he unfolded U
story Which Is remarkable If true. .
Staked Ilia All oa the Boers.
He ssya he was born In Paris and that
his family was once wealthy and influen
tial. His financlsl downfall came, he says,
in the Boer wsr, when he sided with the
Boers. He claims to have Invested his en
tire fortune, consisting of GOO.OUO pounds, in
the Boer cause, and when the British won
the conflict he was reduced to poverty.
Since then, he says, he has been wandering
about in the United States trying to esrn
a living.
The baron, as he is known in the hospital.
Is about 60 years old. He wears a pointed
Van. Dyke beard and his speech and man

moving in cultured and Intellectual circles.
He Is apparently well educated and speaks
English well, though with a decided accent

stderable money. His ilan was to appoint
th mayor of the town he visited treasurer

receive aid from her in a short time.
KANSAS CITT, April 7.-Henry Douls de

The remarkable conditions which mls-
sionsries in the orient have to encounter
and overcome were shown and explained In
a stereopticon lecture by Rev. Frank W.
Bible, a missionary from Hangchow, China,
at the Lowe Avenue Presbyterian church last
night upon the conclusion of the thirty-first
meeting of the Woman's Presbyterlal Mis
slonary society. Some of the photos showed
the squalid city life, others the country
settlements of the Chinese, all portraying
In forcible manner the tremendous lack of
sanitation and the crying need of the whits
man's Influence. Some of the pictures,
however, told In silent eloquence of the
work of education, in heart, hand and mind,
the missionaries have done. Mr. Bible made
a clear presentation of his subject.
A letter from Mrs. Darwin R. James, the
