POLITICAL Antl-Admlalntratiati !- Tlr "Sl-le" UltticalUM, SHRAPNEL Leaders of the anti-administration forces are said to be experiencing dif ficulties in getting together on i "slate" with which to conduct- an of tensive against the city hall. A con ference was held Thursday in "Bob" smith s office in the courthouse. Nothing definite has been done yet among the city hall nominees toward getting together. The mayor has gone away tor a few days for a rest Some have ventured to predict that there will be no city hall slate as such, ana they reter to the primary vote to explain that premise. Commissioner Butler makes this statement: "I positively will not com mit myself before the election to support any candidate for mayor." Thomas Falconer savs lie has made no ticup, although he admitted that negotiations have been going on. It is generally believed that in the event ot a city nail slate being arranged, Koy M. low! will be acceptable. Fal coner and Reynolds have been men tioned in that connection. "I wish to emphatically deny ru mors inai i intend to witnaraw trom the race. If I thought that I would receive only three votes I would stay in tne tignt to the tinisn, --id Con. missioner Withnell. Auburn Dealer is Ord red To Accept Potat ) Shipment R. G. Stewart, Auburn, Neb., dealer in fruits and vegetables, was ordered by the federal food administration for Nebraska to accept a car of potatoes, which he had rejected, and further to pay all costs accruing since the rejec. tion, Thursday. Stewart rejected a car of potatoes, bought from the C C. Whitnack com pany of Lincoln, alleging that they were not up to grade. He refused to accept an offer of Whitnack to stand any loss which might be proven. Whitnack reported the case to the food administration. Government in spection showed that Stewart had no just cause to reject the potatoes, so Mewart must take the shipment, with slight allowances not to exceed 10 per cent, and pay demurrage costs. Jeffers Awaits Orders Before Organizing Force Although he has received notice of his appointment as superintendent of tne railroad terminals of Omaha and Council Bluffs, working under the di rection of Regional Director Aishton, General Manager Jeffers of the Union Pacific, is awaiting further instruc tions before he organizes his working force.

COUNTY PAYS AS GRAND JURY SITS ON PETTY CASE Investigations Into Lynch Ouster and Police Probe Fail to Produce Results, it is Said. Final report of the grand jury will probably not be made this week, it is understood. Expressions of dis satisfaction on the scope of the work of the grand jury Investigations arc heard at the court house. Three-fourths of the time passed by the jury has thus far been occu pied by petty crimes, which ordina rily are taken care of by the county attorney or one of his deputies. Meanwhile the county is paying $80 a day to the members of the jury, in addition to large sums in witness fees. So far as known, investiga tions into the Lynch ouster case, po lice probe and alleged graft' in I fire apparatus, have fallen through, the jury being unable to obtain enough votes to return a true bill. Thus far the investigation of the murder of a police officer at the race track in Benson several years ago has produced the most results, it is understood. The jury is now working on the.. final report, and it will probably be' submitted to Judge Redick the fore part of next week.
