Because, it Is alleged Hard falsely testified that he did not know Brome Brome In his examination for the Jury In The Bee case, he was Indicted for perjury by the recent grand Jury. A new trial on the alleged ground of fraud, false testimony and concealment of material facts perpetrated on the dis trict court during a trial, Is asked by Attorneys Nolan and Woodland In the personal Injury case entitled William Wunwrath against the People's Furniture company In a motion just filed. In the trial of this case two years ago Wesley Gard, the street car motorman now Indicted for perjury, was a mem ber of the Jury and Attorneys Brome A Brome were Wunwrath's lawyers.

The following charges are set up In the motion for a new trial. That Wunwrath's petition filed by At torneys Brome & 'Brome made no claim that his eye had been Injured In a fnll down an elevator shaft, which' was the basis of his suit. That questions were asked and answers given by Wunwrath and Dr. Charles Im pel' In such manner ns to lend the jury to believe that an Injury to the plaintiff causing loss of sight had been caused by his fall.

Thyslcal valuation of tne Omaha and Council Bluffs Street ltallway company cannot be forced under the law, says the company attorney. John U Webster, In a brief In the ease, now pending, because the statute refers only "to steam rail roads" and the term "railroad" as used In the statute conferring power ipon the state railway commission aprliss to steam roads only. This contention will be contested by the city legal department If the seven-for-a-quarter street car ordinance results In a final fight In the high courts over the question of physical valuation to show whether or not the ordinance, which waa Initiated, Is confiscatory. The SUte Railway commission has dis played an Inclination to Interfere In the case, ask for a physical valuation of the street railway company and, having secured It, give It to the city for use in the seven-for-a-quarter case. While opposing the seven-for-a-quarter ordinance the street railway company has taken the position that a physical valua tion cannot be forced, and the company's attorneys are opposing any move toward physical valuation. Assistant City Attorney W. C. Lam bert who is handling the city's side of the case, said: "In the end It will probably be neces sary to secure a physical valuation. That. It seems to me. Is the logical way to go about finding out whether this ordinance If enforced would be confiscatory." When Made Witli Calumet pastry is good to look at, good to eat.
