Three Want Pay
for Inspection of
New Dundee Lights
Like a certain active ghost of dramatlo
lore the name of Dundee will not down
In tha city council chamber.
The Omaha Electric Light and Power
rompany, A. A. Bouner and B. A. Rohr
bough have claims against the city for
electrical Inspection In tha sums of 175.
I122.M and $174.06, respectively. The fi
nance and accounts department would
not allow the claims until their reason
ableness had been determined. The coun
cil referred the matter to the superin
tendent of public Improvements for In
vestigation. "I am unable to understand why our
etty electrical department could not have
made the Inspection of the new lighting
system In Dundee. If we want a little
lob done on the 4ty hall elevators we
nave to send outside to have the work
lone," said one of the commissioners.
The commissioners are curious to know
why three Inspections were necessary on
the Dundee lighting plant which was
turned over at the time of consolidation
In a partially completed condition.
NO ONE HEARD THE SHOT
Frank Greenwalt, a traveling man
about 4 5 years of age, shot and
killed himself Wednesday In his
room on the third floor of the Dav
Idge block, Eighteenth and Farnnin
streets. Despondency, resulting
from continued Illness, is suposed to
hare prompted the act.
The body was not discovered till af
ternoon, although Oreenwslt probably
fired tha fatal shot about 10:ao, while the
adjoining rooms were not occupied. Mrs.
Lena Hogg of flat 5. who rented Oreen-
walt a room last February, was awav
urlng the morning and penton in the
ulldlng did nqt hear the shot fired.
When Mis. Hoggs returned at noon she
received a phone call for Greenwalt. do
ing to hla room she found the door locked
nd was unable to rouse lilm. so called
the Janitor of the building, Imth Paulsen.
who lives at 1016 South Forty-eighth
street. Peering over tbe transom tbo
Janitor saw O.inwalts body lying on the
floor In a pool of blood.
Dead Home Time.
rolice Burgeons iShook and Zinimerar
and Officers Auk ha and Emory responded
to a hurry call, but found the man had
been dead for some time, so the coroner
was called.
Oreonwalt fired only one shot, which
ntered his right temple and passed en
tirely through his head. The .M caliber
revolver was found beside the body with
only one cartridge empty.
Oreenwalt Is said to have suffered h
unstroke some time ago, which had re-
suited In permanently poor health.
Persons living in the Davldge block as
sert that Oreenwalt rarely spoke to anv-
one, received very little mall and had fe
acquaintance and no frinda In Omaha,
so far as thoy knew.
A brother, J Oreenwalt of Fairfield, la
has been notified.
