OMAHA WILL BE
REGULAR STOP OF
GIANT BALLOON
First Trip of Dirigible to Be
Made Before End of Year,
Says Director-of Aerial
Navigation.
The first transcontinental pas
senger dirigible in this country, now
in process of construction in New
York City, will make Omaha one
of its main stations on regular
transcontinental flights, according
to word received at the Chamber
of Commerce yesterday.
Aside from being the first lighter-tlian-air
craft to be built for pas
senger service in the United States,
the dirigible will be the largest and
most completely equipped in the
world, its builders claim.
It will carry with safety and com
fort 65 passengers, a crew of IS
men, one ton of mail, one ton of sup
plies, one ton of baggage and two
tons of fuel, according to Thomas
V. Farrell, one of the directors of
the United States Aerial Navigation
Co., who has been in communica
tion with the Chamber of Com
merce here for some time.
Nonexplosive Gas.
The great dirigible will be 385
feet long and 65 feet in diameter,
will use nonexplosive gas and have,
an average speed of 60 miles an
hour, Mr. Farrell declared in a let
ter which reached the chamber yes
terday. There are to be 50 state rooms
consisting of two to three-room
suites, 20 single drawing rooms, and
12 cabins with double upper berths.
The interior of the ship, as de
scribed by Mr. Farrell, resembles a
fashionable hotel in artistic design
and comfort. i
Will Have a Bar.
It has an upper and lower deck,
he says, a grand dining saloon, two
private dining rooms, lounging
rooms, eiectnc ana snower cams,
observation rooms, promenade deck
and a bar.
Mr, Farrell makes no explanation
regarding the bar, in his letter. The
time is coming, however, he says,
and in the near future, when such
conveniences as- he mentioned will
be essential to all air crafts to se
cure the business of the public.
The great airship will be com
pleted in a short time, and will
make a flight before the first of the
(year, Mr. Farrell says.
COUNCIL TO PASS
ORDINANCE FOR
GARBAGE GRANT
Contract Gives Henry Pollack
$45,000 a Year from
City.
The city council committee. of the
whole yesterday recommended for
passage today I an ordinance which
grants to Henry Pollack a five-year
garbage contract, for a considera-
r A. i - rr a : J
tion OI O.uuu per year iu uc yuu
by the city.
This matter has been held m
abeyance nearly two months, pend
ing the return of Mayor. Smith. It
provides that Mr. Pollack shall col
lect and dispose of all garbage
within the city limits, according to
rules and regulations as shall be
prescribed by the health depart
ment. ,.
It is also agreed that the disposal
f rounds shall be outside of the city,
fr. Pollack stated that he has
leased a tract of land at Debolt sta
tion, a few miles northwest of
Florence, where he will operate a
hog-feeding farm. ...
The city has been collecting
garbage in its own equipment and
selling it to high bidders on con
tract arrangements. This equip
ment -will be sold when the Pollack
contract becomes effective-January
City Commissioner Butler voted
a.one against the Pollack contract,
his reason being that he is opposed
to five-year contracts. He believes
the city should be free three years
hence to operate a reduction plant
or install an incinerator

FIRST WARNING
TO SAVE COAL IS
ISSUED TO PUBLIC
Terminal Chairman Says Crisis
x In Omaha Not Yet
Passed.
H. L. Snyder, acting president of
the terminal coal committee, yes
terday issued his first warning to
the public of the necessity to con
serve coal. The warning was not
given to alarm the people, but to
impress them that the possibility of
a coal famine here has not passed,
Mr. Snyder explained.
"By practicing economy in the
use of coal I believe such a famine
can be averted," said Mr. Snyder.
"The crisis is not yet passed. If
the mines are not running in the
next 10 days, the situation will be
very serious. It will be less serious
if the people practice careful
economy, however.
Mr. Snyder announced yesterday
that a totalof 410 cars of commercial
cal held by the railroads had been
released to consignees in Omaha
since last Friday. Of this amount
234 cars went to retail dealers and
public utilities for current retail
consumption, and 176 cars to public
utilities and manufacturing plants'
for steam power purposes.
Priority List Followed.
In making this release, the pri
ority list, on which railroads, army
and navy and other government in
stitutions, state and county build
ings, and public utilities are at the
head, has been carefully follwed,
Mr. Snyder said.
As yet, however, no railroads in
this section of the country have di
verted any coat for their own use,
according to Mr. Snyder, and coal
is arriving in Omaha at the rate of
75 cars a day. Retail dealers have
made no estimate of the coal
which they, had on hands, Mr. Sny
der said, i
H. J. Plumof, assistant to the fed
eral manager of the Union Pacific
railroad, said yesterday that he be
lieved sufficient coat would be ob
tained from Utah mines to keep the
Union Pacific trains going, without
diverting any consigned coaL

TWO ORDINANCES
INSTEAD OF ONE
ON RINGER PLAN
, -ii
City Commissioners Agree On
Salary Feature, But Want
Regulating Ordinance Sep
arate Proposition.
Police Commissioner Ringer's re
cent ordinance, providing for in
creased Dav for oolicemen and em
powering the chief of police to AcA
mote, promote or transfer members
of the police department without re
strictions, will be separated into two
ordinances.
There is an unanimity of opinion
among the city commissioners on
the salary feature, but they want the
regulatory features in another ordi
nance, and they expressed them
selves accordingly during city coun
cil committee of the whole meeting
yesterday.
Mr. Ringer stated that his new
ordinance makes no change in the
existing ordinance, on the matter of
conferring upon the chief of police
certain unrestricted authority. Some
of the commissioners will be heard

on the subject when the new ordi
nance is called up for discussion.
An ordinance now in force re
quires the chief of police to refer
demotions, promotions and trans
fers to the ' police commissioner.
Thi new ordinance proposes to give
the chief full authority in these mat
ters. Mayof Smith last week stated
that this is a power that should be
exercised "gingerly," and he added
that he questioned the wisdom of
giving a chief power to remove a
man if he did not like the color of
that man's hair.

Wife of Rich Farmer
Seeks Divorce and
Alimony of $20,000
Mrs. Ella Camrjienzind filed an
amended petition for divorce from
Charles Cammenzind. a wealthy
Sioux county farmer, in the Douglas
coutny district court yesterday! She
asks the court to award her $20,000
alimony. She says he has treated
her cruelly and has refused to meet
her overtures for a reconciliation.
He and his 18-year-old daughterhave
refused to allow her to come to the
Cammenzind farm, she alleges.
Mrs. Cammenzind first started
suit a year ago, charging her hus
band with cruelty. He filed an an
swer alleging that she had not se
cured a divorce from her first hus
band when she married him. At
the hearing Judge Troup refused to
grant the divorce, but gave permis
sion for the filing of an amended
petition.
Mr. Cammenzind owns 1,800 acres
of Nebraska land and is worth $50,
000, his wife says.
Give a thought to
Christmas.
