Itegnlar Fnnd Already Badly
Depleted.
8ince the contract for the construction of
the concrete retaining walls and arch over
Indian creek to replace the present bridge
and forna the foundation for the proposed
new central fire station at the foot of
Bryant street waa awarded to E3. A- Wick
ham on hla bid of $10,986 some of tha city
officials are wondering where the money
la to come from.
It la understood that Councilman Jensen
and his fellow councllmen who put the
proposition for the new engine house
through expect that the coat of the concrete
work will be paid out of the bridge fund.
City Treasurer True said yesterday that
there would not be sufficient money In the
bridge fund to pay this contract, even If It
was lawful to pay for the work out of this
fund, which he questioned. Treasurer True,
like other city officials, contends that only
the portion of the work which contemplates
the replacing of the present bridge with a
concrete formation can be lawfully paid out
of the bridge fund and not the retaining
walls, arch and foundation for the fire
house.
On September 1 the balance In the bridge
fund was only $6,066 and from this must
be deducted $962.83, the aggregate amount
of the warrants on this fund Issued during
August and ordered paid at the last meet
ing of the city council. The tax levy will
probably bring In about $6,000 during the
remainder of the year, but much of this
money will be needed for necessary repairs
to bridges.
City Engineer Etnyre yesterday explained
that the difference between his estimate
of $S,X and the Wlckham bid of over $10,-
000 was due to the fact that Wlckham's
bid included the entire foundations for the
building, while the city engineer's estimate
was on the concrete retaining walla and
arch alone,
"The city finances are gettmg Into a bad
tangle," remarked a city official yester
day. "Here we are confronted with a bill
of nearly $800 from W. H. Bryan, the ex
pert hydraulic engineer who was employed
to revise the plans prepared by the city
engineer for a water works system, and
apparently have no money with which to
pay It. The city solicitor says we cannot
pay it out of the 2-milJ sinking fund, and
1 am told we cannot pay it out of the 6
mlll water fund, as the entire revenue of
that fund has already been appropriated to
pay the hydrant rental, and the law pro
hibits us from exceeding the amount appropriated.-
In fact, I know that the city
auditor will not issue a warrant on any of
the funds In excess of the appropriation.
Then again, we will have the bill for the
preparation and printing of the water works
"booklet" which Councilman Jensen and
his associates have Been fit "to. have pub
lished for the edification of the voters, so
that they may be enlightened on the water
works problem before voting on the ques
tion of the bond Issue. AVhero are we go
ing to get the money to pay for this "book
let T"
The expense of the special electfon to be
held October 27, at which the question of
the issuance of $600,0(0 bonds for the pur
chape or construction of a water works
plant is to be submitted to the voters, will
exceed $1,000. At the commencement of
the present fiscal year no appropriation
was made for election expenses. "I have
not the slightest Idea," said City Auditor
McAneney yesterday, "where the council
expects to get the money to pay the ex
penses of this special election. They can
not certainly, according to the city aollc
Hor, be paid out of the water works sink
ing fund."
Appropriations Running- Low.
Some of the appropriations for the cur
rent fiscal year are already badly depleted.
This is shown by the city auditor's monthly
statement of the condition of the general
fund, issued yesterday. It shows that the 1
fund for the care of the streets Is entirely
exhausted, although only half the year
has gone.

ment out of the general fund and the
amount remaining unused on September 1,

FEDERAL liKAKD J I'll I FINISHES
Six Indictments Returned, All for
Minor Offenses.
Tho federal grand Jury completed its de
liberations yesterday and was discharged
by Judge McPherson. It reported six in
dictments. When discharging the Jury Judge Mo
Pherson Informed the members of his ap
preciation of the fact that many of them
had left their business to perform this
duty, for which the compensation is not
mure than barely sufflclnt to meet their
actual expenses. He said:
There are a great many men, good busi
ness men, who complain of and criticize
the courts, but when they are called upon
to perform service thoy are the first to
want to be excused. It was only at this
term of court thut a man who complains
more of the courts than any other man I
have heard wrote to me asking to he ex
cused from service or. the Jury. I answered
him that 1 would excuse him, but with the
distinct understanding that henceforth he
should not say anything ubout courtj not
performing their duties.
The indictments were against R. T.
Phillips of Oakland, on the charge of
bootlegging, who pleaded guilty and waa
sentenced to four months In the Red Oak
Jail and to pay a fine of $100 and cost;
Oscar Smith of Page county, for boot
legging; James CulUn, colored, of Des
Moines, for bootlegging, who on pleading
guiiiy was sentenced to thirty days in the
Polk county Jail and to pay a fine of $100
and costs; Paul Poverie of this city, on
the charge of bootlegging, who on being
arraigned entered a plea of not guilty;
John Hobba and two other young lads,
on tha charge of Interfering with a malt
box.
The chargo against Amanda Maas and
Dora Plnnon, two young women of Trey
nor, la., accused of sending an objection
able postal card through the mailt, was
ignored by the grand Jury.
The greiTVer part vt yet terlay'a session
was taken up with the hearing on the ap
plication of Salllnger A Korte of Carroll,
and Wright A Baldwin of this city, for
$6,000 attorney fees In the property con
demnation suit of C. t. Boynton against
the Mason City A Fort Dodge Railway com
pany. This case was originally appealed
from the sherlffa Jury to the state dis
trict court, transferred to the United States
court, appealed to tho United States cir
cuit court of appeals, certified to the United
States supreme court of appeals with the
decision of the lower court affirmed. Boyn
ton was allowed $4,000 damages for a pelece
of property on which a two-story building
stood 'and which was needed by the rail
road for its right-of-way, and $W attor
ney's fees. Now the attorneys for Boyn
ton, Salllnger & Korte and Wright . Bald
win, claim $5,000 fees upon the ground that
they were .compelled to take the case to
the United States supreme court after their
fees were originally fixed. The court took
the matter under advisement.

Two burglaries and one attempt at burg,
lary In the western part of the city were
reported to the police yesterday morning.
The two places entered are in the vicinity

Common Sense
And A Tablet
Do Away With Dyspepsia, Stomach
Trouble nnd Make MeaW
A Pleasure.
When your stomach goes on a strike and
mass meetings of indigestion are held all
over your bedy, then It Is that you should
sit up and take notice.
It la clearly and only a question of com
mon sense Is this thing called Dyspepsia.
Take away, by abuso, over-eating, excesses
and high living, the things which the
stomach needa and you have dyspepsia and
Indigestion; then other maladies follow
these this Is common aense.
The stomach is willing enough, but you
won't let It do its work. You take away
the materials which arc so necessary for it
to use.
Give back these materials and dyspepsia
and indigestion flee and the whole machin
ery of man begins slowly to move and do
Its work.
What the stomach needs is nerve force,
fluids for Its digestive glands, nourishment
and power. All these necessities it takes
from the blood. If dyspepsia gives nothing
to the blood, the blood gives nothing to
the stomach.
This is common sense alao, pure, simple
and unalloyed.
Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets are common
sense pressed by high power Into tablets.
In these tablets are powerful essences
which go Into the stomach, digest food,
stop gas making, prevent decaying of food,
enrich the gaatrlo Juices, are absorbed by
the blood and thus give it strength to fur
nish a better fluid for digesting the next
meal. Every physician knows what com
prises these tableta; every druggist hss
the same knowledge also. They are nat
ural common sense digesters which do the
work for the stomach quickly and well.
Every drug (tore carries them, &nc per
package. 6nd us your name and address
and we will send you a trial package by
mail tree. Address T. X. Stuart Co., 150

HIGH VALUATION PUT ON WIFE
Dea Molnea Man Wants Fifty Thou
sand for Loss of Her
Affections.
(From Staff Correspondent.)
DBS MOINES. Sept. 17. (Special.)-Orlgi-ral
notice of suit for $W.om for alienation
of affections was served upon Oeorge O.
Wright, a prominent and wealthy real
estate man, today. The suit is started
by A. B. Brown, an employe of the Green
Furnace company of this city. In which
he charges that Wright has alienated the
affections of his wife, Ethel Brown. The
Browns have been separated for several
weeks. The husband claims that Wright
has Influenced her to leave her home.
Wright Is a son of the late Judge Oeorge
G. Wright, who was one of the most
prominent men of the early history of
Iowa. He Is a brother of Carroll Wright,
attorney for the Rock Island railroad at
tris place. Ho was at one time an officer
of the Security Loan and Trust company
of this city, but of late years has devoted
his attention to real estate. Mr. Wright
lives on West Grand avenue In. the most
fashionable district and the suit creates
something of a stir In social circles of tha
city.
Judge William D. Evans of Hampton, Ia.,
has resigned his position on the district
bench of Iowa His resignation was re
ceived by Governor Cummins today. The
governor will appoint him to the vacancy
on the supreme bench as soon as his suc
cessor on the district bench Is nominated.
This will be some time this week. Tha
district court Is now In session. The su
preme court meets next Tuesday. A va
cancy on the district bench would Incon
venience the court and for that reason the
governor will make the two appointments
at one time to avoid a break In the dis
trict court work. The appointment will be
before the supreme court meets. It Is
announced that Judge Evans will move
his family to Des Moines and will here
after make this his home.
In the forthcoming report of the Iowa
State Normal college at Cedar Falls the
present system of arranging studies In tho
public schools will be vigorously attacked.
The report was approved by the trustees at
their meeting at Cedar Falls yesterday.
The report Is the work of President Seer
ley, who has been working along that line
for some years. He clams that language Is
the work of childhood and should be taught
early and that geography and history.
which are more difficult problems, should
bo put later in the course. His report Is
to the legislature and coming before a
legislature that is to revise the school laws
of the state may hay lasting effect.
At the annual meayng of the Iowa Fra
ternal congress, new i in session at Des

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
New Rules by Inspection Bureau
Effective October One.
SOME REMODELING NECESSARY

At the close of two years of up-to-date
Inspection In the packing Industry, re
quirements are steadily becoming more and
more rigid. October 1 Is the date an
nounced for ft more complete separation
of food products from both carcasses and
tanked products under condemnation after
post mortem inspection.
After that date nil packing houses hav
ing government Inspection are required to
provide not only separate tanks for grease
products, but the tanking must be done In
a separate room or compartment from that
where the food products, such ns lard, oleo
and all similar products are rendered.
This has required considerable construc
tion and reconstructlcn among the pack
ing houses in South Omaha The Cudahy
Packing company has a new grease house,
so called, In process of construction. It
will be almost impossible to complete this
building before October 1. The rule will
be placed in operation as aeon as the
building Is done. It will cost tho company
$6,000 or more. Tt was planned and Is
erected solely to meet the requirement! of
this new order.
Swifts have no place for a separate tank
room before the new beef house, now
rapidly moving forward, is complete. ThW
will be ready for use about January 1.
Plans have been so changed that this re
quirement will be met by a thoroughly
modern compartment.
Armour & Co. are fortunate in having
already two rooms used In rendering fats.
All that will be necessary is to move all
the condemnation tanks Into one room and
continue aa at present.
The Omaha Packing company haa a
similar fortunate condition. All that is
required is the fietatl of internal arrange
ments. The order from the bureau of animal in
dustry Is one of a multitude of movements
toward ideal conditions which have been
Introduced since the government undertook
to make Inspection complete.
Said Don C. Ayer, chief of the local of
fices of the bureau: "We have gone so far
since October 1, 1908, that it appears, to
look back upon It, we had nothing at all
before that date. We have Introduced a
multitude of reforms. It is safe to say,
now, under our almost prefect system of
sanitation, that anyone who was severely
critical, going through the packing houses
at the time of the great popular .clamor of
cleaning up or cleaning out the packers,
might have found dirty spots enough to
have created a yellow Journal smudge.
Many of those attacks I have no doubt
were exaggerations or ignorant mouthings
by people unacquainted with conditions;
but. In cases, merited In part at least.'
"Sanitary Inspection waa out of our
Jurisdiction at that time.
"Thousands of dollars have been spent
by each of the South Omaha packing
houses to make the changes required to
meet our new laws. In all new buildings
one of the prime objects has been to meet
all effective and prospective rules of gov
ernment Inspection. Concrete floors and
other forms of sanitary flooring have taken
the place of the old boards. Flushing and
cleaning apparatus has been Introduced to
Insure the best conditions. The men have
been compelled to clean up and keep clean
as their work will, under best conditions,
allow. Through It all we have had the
hearty co-operation of the packers. The
value of government Inspection Is every
where recognized."
Traveling Veterinary Inspector Dr. I. C.
Mattatall who was In South Omaha yester
day, said: "So far as post mortem inspec
tion goes theory and practice has not
changed under the new Inspection. We
had the same rules of condemnation before.
But we have this great advantage. Con
gress has appropriated more money, and
we havj a far greater number of men to
accomplish the work. When short handed,
naturally many things slipped by unnoted,
which would be imposlble today. I am glad
that the agitation of the question has sub
sided for It gives opportunity for a safe
and economical Inspection suited to all par
ties interested, as nearly as possible to be
maintained. I could give you case after
case of the havoc caused by extremists
and simple "cranks," who had a notion
of reform, but no sane method of obtain
ing it.
"Packers help us at all points. The only
trouble now Is there Is ground for
an honept difference of opinion. We have
the right to desroy a packer'a property;
but we recognize his right also to know
why we do It. In early days of our In
spection government men were officious
and possibly arbitrary, but It Is coming
to he tho rule that reasons be given when
ever demanded. This saves many Jars and
disputes. The packers used to kick on
all Inspection, but It Is reversed. They
kick most vigorously for it. It Is made one
of the greatest arguments to secure patron
age nowadays."
Hnar Prices Going: I'p.
Since September 1 the average price of
hogs in South Omaha has climbed almost
dally from $fi.43 to $iit0. Receipts have been
lather light, as Indicated ly this week's
itatistirs. Only 12,in0 head have been re
ceived alr.ee Monday. Tuesday and Wednes
day showed fair. The price was off a
nickel yesterday.
The prlc? of cattle was contiderahly de
moralized with the week's um sually heavy
run. Nearly 32,00 lnnd have come In In
three days. Feeder stock of good ijual ty
sold well, but everything else went down
sharply. The ycar'a average shows that
receipts are Hill slightly decreasing.
Sheep gained another point, Increasing
over last year 1'0,5&7 since tne record wa
broken Tuesday. Prices of feeder lambs
and sheep remained firm, but the killers
