3 Clash Over Berths
On Committees
Drucsedow Seeking to Keep
Foster Out of Clitics ami
Towns Body of Which He
Wants Chairmanship.
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 5. (Special.
Lfforts were made today by uiem
)crs of the Douglas county delega
tion to irgn obt a 'tow between
Drucsedow of Oinaha and foster of
Omaha over berths in the commit
tee on cities and towns. ,
J)ruesedcw, who is a mejiibcr of
tl comniittcc oq committees, is re
ported to b putting up a hot jiaht
to keep Foster out of the cities and
towns committee. Drttcjcdow wants
to be chairman of this committee
and until he began to "knife" Foster
for appoiutmcnt as a member, it
looked as though he would get the
thakmanship which he has held for
two sessions, without trouble.
But Foster seems to have r influ
ence with members of the commit-:
tee.o:t committees out in the state
who arc nisttug that 'he become a
member. Foster claims that his
familiarity with the proceedings of
the two charter convention in Oma
ha will make him a valuable mem
ber of the committee this year
when the charter proposition. comes
Druesender Obdurate.'
Hut Drucsedow, it seems, doesn't
v.ant him, wori'. have him, and
von't consider hi-appointment.
Other members of the Douglas
county delegation with iheir mouths
watering for. certain committee ap
pointments, look upon this row
projected by Drucsedow in the com
mittee on committees as dangerpus
t.t their aspirations. Hence, their
efforts today to endeavor to effect
a compromise.
Robertson of Omaha, wants to" be
on the committee on banks and
bulking; Hascall and Dysart on the
important judiciary. Others are
looking forward to gbod appoint
ments. . ' "- V
Dyball of Omaha, serving on the
commilee 1 on committees with
Drueseflow, is reported to Ae seeV
in "peace at any price.' Dyball
is looked upon as the possible chair
man of the manufacturing com
mittee. ' . " '
Druesedow Warned.
Other members of the Committee
ot" committees tonight told Druese
dow that he would have either ti;
patch up his personal quarrel yllh
Foster or lose chairmanship -of the
committee on towns and Cities, ac
cording to a report here. Robert
son of Omaha . was . spoken of as
chairman of the coihmittee in . the
event Drensdow , refused' to sit on
the same committee with Foster ?nd
the committee members made, good
their threat. '" , . . " .:,
"Such a fight not' only hurts the
Omaha delegation in tlieir personal
desires, it weakens, our standing in
the lower houe and that hurts the
city of Omaha member, ;of the
Omaha delegation -said."', Vrf'. ., .

"Committee of One" Reed
Finds Plan of : Picking Em
ployes Not Favored; Many.
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. S.-Speclal.)
A minor insurrection broke out in
the Nebraska state ' senate on the
second day's session of the 40th
legislative ' session over the" matter
of employes. .'' : '.' .,
The storm broke around the head
of Senator Perry Reed of Hender
son, who has been entrustei withrthe
sole responsibility of hiring trh-
ployes tor the state senate. ;
Reed's appointment-as the com
mittee on employes - for the, state
senate was announced at the open
ing of the session Wednesday" morn
ing and was immediately approved
by the other members.-"., v. ,
' Abolish Easy Jobs. "
Then Senator Reed announced
that the 'committee on employes'
would attempt to abolish some of the
easy jobs and . to save as much
money for the state as-possible. He
said , that one clerical position and
three or four custodial positions
could just as well be dispensed with
and their duties transferred to other
employes of the senate.
Mr. Reed said there would be no
attempt to reduce the stenographic
force, inasmuch as a majority of the
members had a voluminous corre
spondence with their constituency
and every effort would be made to
see that it was handled expeditious
ly. He thought, however, that no
senator should use the time of
stenographers to type priyate letters
not connected- with the state's busi
ness. : . . y :r - .. . -Places
:Were Filled., i;
Senator ReeJ then followed ; his
announcement up by stating that all
of the positions, with the exception
of a clerical job and several steno
graphic places,' had been filled: and
no more employes would be needed.
Those already ..employed ' would be
retained only so' long as1 they gave
satisfactory service. "; Reed's ; state
ment brought Hoagland to his feet
with a protest. 1 ,
"I'm going to insist that enough1
stenographers be employed to handle
the correspondence and business of
this senate properly," the North
Platte senator said..' "There , is no
economy in asking a senator to per
form clerical wor,k." , .,; '
Senator -- B. K ;Bushee followed
Hoagland with assurances that the
coVnmittee on employes did not in
tend to restrict any necessary em
ployes. . , T, -;Sf, . ;
y. No Pay Boost' :
"We do object, however, to having
resolutions cpme in during the middle
of Jhis session or towards- the tail
endj to boost salaries. - Every, "em
ploye necessary to carry ort th busi
' ness xif this senate will be employed,
but we do not propose to have salary
boosts rurt in on. us." (
Senator Cooper of Omaha contri
buted to the debate with some rather
pointed remarks, t . ,
"IT wouW like to submit a few
proposals for employes," Cooper
said, replying to a statement made
by Keed that he would bke to have
members turn in "their -applications
for employment to him, ' "This is
the irst in&natiotv" I have received
that the list-of employes had been
made-up. We have a few worthy
applicants and I want their applica
tions to receive consideration.
' Gannon Has Friends.
Benjamin "Gannon closed. the de
bate by observing .that he repre
sented threeor four, of the largest
counties m the state and he had run
ahead- of the republican ticket in his
territory. He had three or four ap
plications he thought were deserving
of attention. :'.'
After disposing- of the . employes
matter, the senate 'recessed to meet
with the houseful joint session to
canvass the vote.
There 'were indications that the
senate might overrule Senator Reed
in his employes' program. - .

Chirac Tribune-Omaha Bee LeaAd Wire.
Bridgeport, Conn., Jan. e. Panic
gripped the crowd at the George B.
Xott murder trial here today, when
Elwood G. Wade, 23, milk peddler
on trial for N.ott's murder, leaned

With a scream, Mrs. Nott stag
gered from her seat, just as Deputy

' Wade's pretty , young wife, sitting
a few feet from Mrs. Nott, the
"other wofnan in the case," screamed
as she witnessed her husband's action,-

the arms of Wade's mother and an-!
oth,er woman friend.
Mrs. Nott, who is also held on a
charge of first degree murder in con

"Take her out " yelled the
crowd. Two deputy sheriffs rushed
her from the coUrt room. It was the
second' time during the day that the
wife of the murdered man had been
carried from the court room.
