HOPES FOB, MORE PATROLMEN i If Ovarii Will Asswsso Walatewawee f Clfr Jail naaaaaa Kara f Caa Ad Twflft Mn la a Jiff 7. Vmbera of the Commercial db have afeaadoned. their itch em to tiara block watchmen delegated with special police , ;mrl, according to Chief of Follca Pona- I huo. ftecently a committee from the club j waa In conference with the chief. Mayor I Dahlman and William Wapplch and Wll- j Ham Hunter, members of tha Board of Fire j and Folic commissioners. I Tha Commercial club suggested lhat I block watchmen In the city be delegated a special policemen and put unaer tne direction of the chief. The committee was given encouragement .by the city official and we told that If the club would fur nish' ths watchmen or provide for their pay the cblef would direct their activities. The Club members departed with the understanding that If aufflcient fund could b rained to put the acheme Into operation the chief be requested to direct the men. The club solicitors have not met with the assistance they desired snd for that rea son have dropped the plan. "While the acheme might add to the police force' In a way. I do not believe the results would warrant ths expenses," said Chief Donahue. "Block watchmen are not effective as a rule. The absence of the uniform Is enough In Itself to handi cap the project. Flaln clothes patrolmen cannot exert one-tenth tha Influence of a uniformed man. "We can solve. the police situation here for the time being If the city council will assume the expenses at the city Jail, a has been requested' by the fire and police board. r "The funds aekrd would give us twelve additional patrolmen. The plan of the de partment Is ,to detail these men through out the residence district. If the city coun cil decides to bear the expense of the city Jail we will put on twelve more men In a jiffy." chief Donahue made a flying visit to Uncolrl Wednesday. He held a conference with Oovernor Aldrlch, during which the police department was discussed at length. "Oovernor . Aldrlch unhesitatingly de clared we needed ISO patrolmen In Omaha," said the cblef. 'Tie told me that a recent Inspection of Omaha had proven to him that the. present foroe Is totally inade quate. He aald he had no Idea the amount of territory Omaha covered until he went over the city recently. ."'Th governor could offer no suggestions tor Increasing the force at this time, be cause he could not see where the money would come from." ,11 IJMdM ' - ' i - - ti ii U Sale Begins Friday and will continue till entire stock is disposed of. Homeopaths Express : . Grouch by Resolution Coarention' Condemn! 'Appropriation ' rUte Medical-School Be--' '!! - ."cAMe it ii Allopathic. f" , ; The" appropriation -of Jl00,0q0 for the es tablishment of the medical department of the state uniVerslty at Omaha, whl'nh car ried through the legislature during tha re cent seaeton, waa condemned , In - renolui tiona adopted by the ' state association of homeopathic physician at the conclusion of their convention Thursday morning. The Nebraska IJtate HomeopeAhlo Medi cal soeiety held a business meeting at the close of tha morning's solentiflo discussions and tha Omaha appropriation was at tacked because tjie bill does not specify that . any ' instruction shall be given In homeopathic theories of materia medlca. Tha other doctors of medicine are taking It for granted that It U to be allopathte or "regular."- Tha same objections of unfair ness war brought forward against the school when the bill was being discussed In the- house and senate. '. The resolutions Introduced by Dr. F. A. Marsh of Seward. .Dr. Stella R. Jacobl, Omaha, and Dr. Laura II. Rosat of Lin coln were passed 'and a committee com posed of Dr. Marsh and Dr. D. A. Foots of Omaha was authorised to begin the or ganisation of a movement which will eventually lead to the establishing in the state school a chair of materia medlca and medicine',, according to .the horneo pathle-or Hahnemann theories. The reno. lutloru wore as follows: Whereas, That after nearly 100 years of existence of the homeopathic school of mrdlotne. with Its many great colleges thousands of practicing physicians and mil' lions -of patrons all over our broad land, thus showing tha- advancement and growth &nd the virtue and truth of the Hahna- mannlan theory of the application of drugs In the treatment of the sick, and Whereas, There exists today as always the same ebstn-uotiona to our advancement and progress a a school by personal, so ciety and leeialatrve acts. Therefore. Be It resolved, that we hereby reiterate our firm belief In and allegiance to the teachings of the Immortal Hannw mann. as being superior to any known sys tem of medicine, and Be It further reaolved. That we condemn aa unfair and unjust the recent act of our legislature in appropriating money from the nubile treasury for the promotion of tnrle and aeparate schools for medicine without provision therein for the teaching of any other system.

Indictments were returned by ths P.M....1 r.nrt turv which reported at noon Thursday after being In session sines Wednesday worning. Only five cases were heard by the Jury and the evidence In each waa sufficient to warrant tne revuru Indictments. Frank Morrison, for whom tha grano jury was called, was indicted for mailing non mailable and obscene mattsr through tha United Elates mall. Ha la alleged 10 nave written letter to several young girls throughout tha state of Nebraska, which wars of such a character that they were not written on tha Indictments. It Is said that Morrison will plead guilty when ha la brought before tha court on tha charge for which ha was Indicted. Two woman were also Indtoted. both for the same offense, that of mailing non mailable matter. Mra. Carrie Smith Is al leged to have written letters through ths msll claiming to be a doctor for women's diseases. Tha contents of tha letter were not in keeping with ths government laws and very little avldenoa was Introduced in the esse. Mrs. C. F. Jones was Indicted for the same practice and the casea were almost alike In every respect. W. L. Shepherd and James Owens were Indicted for having in their possession fal-te and altered obligation of ths United states. Tha two boys were charged with raising blils ot tl denominations to that of 15. Ths work waa very crude and they were ar rested In South Omaha when an attempt was made to pass one of the false bills on a Mrs. Peterson who operstes a candy store on ti street. The two men were trailed by a man who was in the store at tha time and the police atra notified, arrested thern and found the "queer" In their pockets. The evidenoe taken at the preliminary hearing before Guituve Anderson, United States commis sioner, was Introduced at the hearing and It was this evidenoe which warranted tha Indictment. All tha prisoners indicted have signified to United States Attorney S. Mowsll that they ara willing to plead guilty with tha sxoeptlon of James Oweus. lie claims he was an unwilling partner in the pacing of the altered bills.
