BODY IS PLEDGED TO SECRECY The second Btep in the procedure of filling the vacant bishopric of the Catholic diocese of Omaha waa taken Monday at a meeting of bishops of the province, held at the episcopal residence, Thirtv-sixth and Burt streets. The first step was taken at a meeting of the consulters and Irre movable restors, held m week ago. Most Rev. John J. Keane, archbishop of Dubuque,' presided. The bishops present were Rt. Rev. Phillip J. Gar rlgan of Sioux City, Rt. Rev. James Davis of Davenport, Rt. Rev. A. Dowllng of Dea- Moinea, Rt. Rev. John Tihen of Lincoln, Rt. Retr. J. A. Duffy of Kearney and Rt. Rev. P. A. McOovera of Cheyenne. ' Rales Kaaentlallr Alike. Th rule governing both the diocesan body . and the blshopa in making nomin ations for the vacancy are essentially alike. Each may name as many as three persons. The preferences of the consul ters and rectors may be endorsed by the bishop, or the latter may name three others. The names from both bodies are sent to Rome for final action. As the members or - notn bodies are obligated to secrecy, their preferences ar not known, and will not be known until Rome act and makes th announce ment. Local speculation as to the succes sion, therefore, 1 pure guess work.

CITY WILL DEMAND YIADUCTBE BUILT Commissioner! Will Aik Legal De partment to Take Action Against Missouri Pacific. DITNDEEITES ARE UP IN ARMS Following a severe excoriation of the Missouri Pacific railroad com pany by citizens of Dundee, the city council recommended the adoption of a resolution directing the city legal department to proceed at once to require the company to build a viaduct on West Dodge street, or to manifest some signs of good faith toward the elevation of tracks. City Attorney. Rlne explained that, in his opinion, the best way to pro ceed would be to go to the federal curt at St. Louis and secure an o der authorizing the receiver of the Missouri Pacific to spend money for the improvement in question.' .ttteraer I nder Fire. Yale C. Holland, assistant attorney for the Missouri Pacific, stood before the city council committee of the whole and withstood as best he could a withering fire of words from patience-exhausted Dundeeltes. W. H. Defrance said: "We would like to see the city commissioners enforce the law. This Dodge street viaduct comes within the same category as taxes. There is no legal excuse for the Missouri Pacific not complying with the law. We are here to find out why the law In this instance is not being- en forced." . irea History of Caae, 'Howard Smith gave a history of the Dodge street viaduct from February 1, 1WX, to the present date. He related an experience Inst spring when a street car was almost struck by a freight train. "The responsibility rests upon the heads of you city commissioners. I want the city legal department directed to pro ceed to compel the Missouri Pacific to set at once. It Is up to you' as city of ficial to save your reputation by 'foV- Ing action on this matter. Unless th city commissioners take the bit In their teeth we will never get anywhere in this viaduct fight." said Mr. Smith, (Gentlemen's Aareement. Commissioner Hummel asked Attorney Rlne what he thought of the conference held by the railroad people and the city commissioners last spring, when it was understood the company would be al lowed to complete other work before starting upon the Dodge street viaduct. "I always regard a verbal agreement between men as binding as any other kind of agreement," replied th city at torney. "Not with the Missouri Pacific," re joined Commissioner Hummel. W. W. Slabaugh, W. F. Baxter and Stanley Rosewater spoke for the Dun dee people. Arthur Pancoast suggested the possibility of the Missouri Pacific discontinuing service over the Belt Unp until the viaduct shall have been erected. Attorney Holland, for th railroad com pany, said in substance: "During the last seven years the. company has not made enough money In Nebraska to pay operating . expenses in this state. The building of the viaduct is a matter of conditiona. It Is - the desire of the re ceiver of the road to build the viaduct as soon as he has the money, which h doe not have at this time, but hopes to have before long. We have at this time and will file within the week pians for the elevation of the Belt lino tracks! We are unable to specify any exact time when we will be able to start viaduct or the other plan of elev the track," Emphaals waa placed upon the fact In all of the litigation the city was sus tained on every main point, even to the supreme court of the United States, it was alleged that the Missouri Paciflo had been pursuing a "watchful waiting" policy. The city commissioners seem Impressed with the Idea that th Dundee people at tending the meeting are much In earnest about' thia viaduct matter and Intend to follow it up with determination.
