SRR e THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY. MAY NO ITALTANS NEED APPLY. The Usher & Russell Foundry Men Go On a Strike, THE CABLE MEN STILL OUT. No Scttlement of the Paintcrs and Paper-Hangers' Differences—Tho Latest Situation of the Labor Agitation in the City, Foundry Men Go Out, jixty men employed at the Usher & Russell foundry and iron works struc yesterday morning Two men, both help- ers in the foundry, one an Irish-American and the other an Italian, had a fight about the time work commenced yesterday morning. When Mr. Usher arrived at the foundry and heard of it he ordered the discharge of both combatants. The foreman carried out his orders. A short time afterwards a committee from the rest of the men in the foundry waited on Mr. Russell and asked the reinstatement of the Irish-/ an helper. They also asked that no more Itaiinns be employed. Both requests were refus The men in the foundry, sixty in number, thereupon left their work, Mr. Usher stated would foundry. blacksmith shop last evening that not materially The men in and in the The work of the y which at presentis to cast the yokes for the cable line is ahcad, of the ities of the latter; and work being stopped on the cable line it becomes still less necessary to hurry the casting of the yokes. Mr. Usher ‘also said that he desired to make repairs in the foundry and would take advantage of this event to do so. He stated that the men were not dissatistied with their pay, as he was paying union prices, $2.75 per day for to moulders and $1.75 to helpers. He said that he wou!d not consent, under any circumstances, to allow his employes to dictate to him and his partner as' to what men he should employ, whether Italians or Germans or Irishmen, effeet t Labor Troubles. The cable strikers have not yet gone to work, inasmuch as the contractorsstill refuse to pay them $2a day. Yesterday morning a number of laborers attempted to go to work, but were prevented from doing so by ithe strikers. There waa no violence used, the strikers using argu- ments to induce the new workmen to throw down their picks and shovels, It now looks as though the str would re- sult in a serious delay to the construction of the lin¢, unless something is done at once to adjust the difliculty. A reporter for the BEe met Mr. ble line contractor yester: him w he had to say pect *o the statemen published in yesterd that they inconsistency on their very o was not true that he to pay men for fractional hours’ work. In proof of this, he showed his time-book wherein waus marked the half hours and less time than that, even whick men had put in and been paid for. Neither was 1t true that he had telegraphed to Kansas City for laborcers, He was paying men just as much as he could ~afford to.” The shovellers were getting $1 per day while the concrete and iron men were being paid $2.00 per day. He asserted that no shovellers in the city were pad more than $1.75, and he didn’t see why he should be compelled to what he could not afford to pay, especially when others were not paying as much as he was paying. There ‘was no alternative for him but to discon- tinue work and fence in the trenches, because he had men who were willing to work for the wages he was paying and yet, in the presence of the policemen who were sent there to protect those men who wantud to work, those same men had their tools taken out of their hands by the strikers and compelled to leave their work. He had expected different protection than that from the city. This unreasonable strike, he said, meant a great loss to Omaha, because the cable company had a million of dol- lars to putinto Omaha this year which must now remain idle. The strikers met yesstrday morning and a resolution was unanimously adopted that no work would be resumed on the line until the contractors agreed to pay $2.00 per day for tep hours or at the rate of 20 cents per hour for any number of hours that might be required, and further that all the 5!<|mumu are to be given the first chance for re-employment. ~ A com- mittee was also appomted to look after an men who might be impor- tec to _ this _ place from Kansas city. It was also decided to request all laborers to keep away trom the trenches during the pen- dengey of the strike, to avoid all possible trouble, because it is the desire of the strikers to secure their point by peaceable A vote of thanks was ed to pross and the people of Omaha for their sympathy. Mr. Lillis, the contractor on the cable line, paid the disuflected workmen off last evening and stated that he could not accede to the demand for $2 per day. He said e had taken the contract under the understanding that he would have to pay only #1.50 or $1.65 at most for labor- ers, Ho had agreed to pay and had paid $1.75. Higher than that he could not go without absolute loss on the contract., Lilhs, ay, and with res- of his workmen s Bee. He smd Painters and Paperhangers, The painters and paperhangers met at 9 o'clock yesterday morning at Metz’ hall, When the master workman called the meeting to order considerable discussion took place as to the mode of procedure in appheations for painters and hangers to do small jobs. The matter was re- ferred to the executive commitee, A communication was received from the Typographical union informing the meeting that the executive com- mittee of that wunion had drawn A check in the sumn of §50.00 for the benetit of the striking painters and paper-hangers. At 11 o'clock it announced th committee of master painters waiting to confer with the executive com- mittee. ‘The chairman appointed a com- mittee to escort them to the rooms of the executive committee. The gentlemen representing the master painters were Mess Henry Lehman, Charles Hunt, b Rosensweig and Carl Harmon. This committee held an extensive confer- ence with the executive committee of the vainters and hangers, and agreed to pre- sent an offer sometime this afternoon. Mr, Carl Harmon, & master painter, made the assertion in the presence of a Bee reporter that if the master painters did not accede to the terms of the workmen he himself would withdraw from the Mas- ter Painter's organization. Mr. Harmon was greeted with considerable applause whenever he passed through the assem- bly room, "The proposition of the master painters as udopted by them Tuesduy night will not be entertained by the exccutive com- mittee, The executive committeo of the paimnters and paper hangers were in session again last evening in Grand Army hail, and considerable digcussion was had, It was finally resolved to await another proposition from the mwas er painters which, it Is understood, the latter will make to-da y. The Hrick Moniders. ‘The brick moulders of Omaha give as their side of the difficulty with their em- the followin Last summer fiye days notice was given to the brick manufacturers to consider certain terms. The moulders held a meeting and invited the manufacturers to be present, and the only manufacturer there Mr. ivesey, who,” as soon as he saw no other man ufacturer present, left. The mould- ers held several meetings last week and determined to demand $2 per y. They do not ask as charged an ad- vance of 20 per cent, but simply demand for 6,000 brick which would be an ad- vance of 8 cents per thousand. The moulders say they do not propose to stop any man from work unless they can ly convince him that it is to his in- st so to do, They claim that the ufacture of brick does not cost in wha more than 3.26 per 1,000, ana though in their statements the acturers say they are selling brick n $7 to §0 per thousand, the mould- ers declare that in fact they charge for their orick no less than $10 per thousand, The moulders y they do not wish to stop building. Neither do they wish to inconye the general public, but they propose to eling to their demands. If. however, any citizen wishes any building done he can sccure first-class brick and workmen at fair prices by ap- \v]_\ln" to the sccretary of the Brick Moulders' union, 2 ing street, city. In some of the ckmolders resumed work yesterday afternoon, BOUNCING TH QUATTERS. Wealthy Citizens Combine to Drive the Bottomites From Home. Constable Edgerton yesterday morning performed a rather disagreeable duty in announcing to the squatters on the river hottom betweenJones andHoward streets, thar they were to be evicted by the stron arm of the law. The notices were served upon twel quatters within the limits named,to appear before Judge McCulloch of the county court and make answer why they shoild not yield up possession of this land to Messrs. Byron Reed, D. C. Sutphen, Charles Sutphen and Drake, who have commenced suit to obtain pos- session of this land. From time immemorial these squatters or ‘“‘bottomites’ as they are som times known, have squatted on this terri- tory. They we: D“* undisturbed, ex- cept as the railroads happened to drive them to the one side or the other. A few months ago the B. & M. railroad wanted to lay its tracks across the land then oc- cupied by the squatters, and persuaded them to move nearer the river or within sixty feet of the banks, And now as it seems they are to be driven from this strip of land. Some, in fact all, of these squatters are in circumstances of desperate poverty. They live from hand to mouth, not knowing on one day where their board for the nextis to come from. Most of them united m deploring the wretched e in which they would find themsel when driven from the homes, they have built on the banks of the river. ‘Two of the squatters d that they would build boats to live in an float them on the river, moored to the shore. The rest, however, declared that they would unite in employing coursel to fight the case, on the grounh that 60 feet of the land next to the river belonged to the government, and that, consequently, they, (the squatters) were on United States soil. An impreeation which one old lrish woman hurled at Constable Edgerton, a: his portly frame disappeared through her door, probably expresses the sentiment of all the squatters, She shouted at him: “Bad 'cess to ye, ye dhurty spalpcen and de min as ye're'wurkin’ fur.

Cummings & Neilson, 1118 Farnam St. ————— THE SENATOR'S HORSE, General Manderson Angry For the First Time in His Life, Everybody in Omaha knows the genial scnior United States senator, General Manderson, and but few ever met him without a pleasant smile was rippling around his countenance to form an eddy for a kind greeting or perhaps a wavy anecdote. Yesterday, however, there was a change in his deportment and his attitude like his straw hat was new. He carried himself like a warriop —the *‘pun” had given way to the sword. In fact, the senator was :uu_;r;r. and it is doubtful if an Alaskan applying for a fuvor could have gota hearing. "1t was only personal friendship that allowed a reporter of the BEE to approach him, and it was only the desire to let the valve of ire open then and there that relieved the senator of a little part of his anger and gave to the world the subject matter of such things, as are written: “Talk not of grief till thou has seen the tears of warlike men.” . In a word the senator has been expend- ing a great deal of money on a favorite horse that was sick. Being a lover of domestic animals and especially the horse, and this particuiar horse, expense for curative |}mruoscs Was no object. Veterinarians had been called in, but seemingly to no effect. The horse, they said, had a stomach disease, Finally Dr, Chambers was summoned. He found the trouble was a decayed tooth and he ex - tracted it. The norse immediately com- menced to improve, **Darn it,” said the senator, *'I never heard of horse dentis- try before, and if my animal had been o little shorter, so that the other doctors I called in might mistake a bellyache for a toothache, I wouldn't care much. But asitis ['m fumg to get a book from the agricultural department hereafter, and regulate my own horses.” Then the senator walked off as com- vlacently as if he had sceured a pension for a friend soldy SHE WORE A T\I()TII 'R HUBBARD. Jenny Green Appears in a Question- able Garment and is Arrested. Judge Berka, who is for the next two years to hold down the wool-sack in the police court, took his seat yesterday morning. The case of the city of Omaha vs. Jenny Green was first called, The de- fendant was a somewhat notorious wo- man who had been arrested by Officer O'Grady. She was charged with wear- ing a Mother Hubbard dress, Sh had appeared on the stre with that questionable garment, and as it flaunted its scarlet silken folds in the breeze, more of the young woman’s anatomy was visible than strict ideas of propricty would warrant, So O'Grady arrested her, She was discharged by Judge Berka, who warned her never to appear on the streets in a Mother Hub- bard again. It may be remembered that Miss Green was arrested tiree years ago by Marsha! Cummings for the ~ same of- fense. Sarah Dowens was fined $5 and costs for street-walking, Several unimport- ant cases of drunks and vagrants were disposed of. A Pitched Battle, Stuart Reed, living at Nineteenth and Spring streets, procured a warrant yester- day in police court for the arrest of Fred, Charles, Joc and Mike Pontag, who at- tacked his house last night with = bricks and siones. Reed fired three or four l shots 1to the crowd and dispersed them, not, however, before Mrs, ?ern was struck in the bregst and serlously fiurw. ODDS AND ENDS. Stray Leaves From Reportorial Note Books, “‘Omaha has never made much effort to secure national or even state conven- tions" said a citizen yesterday. ‘“And I am sorry for it. Those gatherings in- variably help the cities in which they take place. This year, however, we are 1o have more than our share, and I hope Omaha will show her appreciation of them, and see the advantage of encour- agingthem so that the next year may brin, no fewer gatherings wichin our limits, *"e The arrest of a young woman for wear- ing a Mother Hubbard dress on the street brings to mind the crusade against this article of feminine apparel which was in- augurated by Marshal Cumings three years ago. Shortly after that oflicial stepped into office he 1ssued an order that no woman should be allowed to app on the streets in a Mother Hubbard dress, He followed this up with an arrestor two, and this garb, as an article of street ap- parel, became all at once verv unfashion- able, This little act of the marshai’s at- tracted the attention of the newspapers ver the country and did much to ad- vertise Omaha. It also made the marshal the butt of endless jokes and “‘gags.” *, x%e Ben Gilfoil, an old time minstrel man in the city. At the time of the Ryan- Suilivan fight he was in Louisiana, doing a burnt cork act with Haverly's minstrels. The news of the battie which wasto come off between the two great giants of the pugilistic arena spread far and wide throughout the state, and brought Hav- erly's men to the scene of the contlic Gilfoil, who was well known among sporting men, was chosen to act as ring master. Speaking of the fight the other night he said: *‘It was not a long battle, nor could it be called a stubbornly con- ed one. Neverthel it was an inter- esting fight, and a good deal of pluck and science was destroyed on both sides. Before cither man had stepped into the ring, betting gave odds in favor of Ryan. The bets were running as a general thing #100 to $80 1n favor of Ryan. The min- strel boys were all betting on Ryan. Many of them knew him personally, he was a great favorite with them. 1 r member 1 took all the money I could on Sullivan, despite the fact that my friends laughed at me and told me I was flying in the face of Providence. But I thought 1 knew what I was about, and scooped in just an even #350 worth of bets. The fir: blow that Sullivan struck convinced me that he was the winner. He had barely ceased shaking Ryan’s hand, according to the rules of the ring, when he let out his left and hit the Trojan giant a territic blow on the jugular. Ryan dropped to the ground, as though he had been shot, and looked up at Sulhivan with an sion on his face that seemed to at God, what hav with!” After that Ryan's def was foregone conclusion.” He made a plucky fight, but Sullivan too much_ for him, Yes, Ryan was a good man, there is no question about that. To my’ think- ing he is the only man, who can stand anywhere near making a show against Sullivan.” Edison Electrie Light System Estimates furnished, Gro, W, Coster, Paxton House, Omaha, Agent, el e ANOTHER PILE, The Third Brick to Go Up on Thir- teenth street This Year, The design of the iirst new building to be erected on the Anheuser-Busch prop- erty, corner of Jones and Thirteenth streets, has at last been finished, It shows the structure to be of five stories, with terra-cotta and cut-stone trimmings. It has a beautiful and commanding ap- pearance, and at the same time an air of stability which distinguishes all the structures m other cities of this well- known firm. The ground floor will have three stores, while the upper stories will be used for wareroom and office pur- poses. On the corner at the intersection of the streets there will be a circular window projecting from the building and extending to the roof. This gives an ad- ditional element of beauty to the struc- ture, and s the latter a companion viece to the Barker hotel across the street, which has a somewhat similar design.

Boyd, Dear Siri—In compli- ance with you request, I have the honor to submut for your examination and con- sideration, a report of the legal depart- ment of the city, showing 1 detail the number of cases and nature of the suits now pending against the city. At the present time there are pending in the several courts 157 suits against the city, involving cluims to the amounts of $203,043.42, A number of the cases above referred to, in addition to the amount in contro- versy, involve questions which are of the utmost importance to the city. The case of Schaller vs. Omaha, now pending in the supreme court, involves the question asto the right of a jury to consider special bene fits against damages resulting from grading. The case of the Phanix Insurance com- pany vs. Omaha, now pending in the supreme court, involves the right of the city to tax the business of nsurance companie, The case of the Medical College vs, Omaha, is another ecase involving the right of taxation for municipnl purposes, In all of these cases the judgments of the district court were in favor of the city, and I contidently expect an af- firmance by the supreme court of such judgments, The sum of #13.198.48 now stands to the credit of the judgment fund, with no outstanding judgments unpaid. But for the entry of judgments for the amounts allowed by the council and ap- praisement committees for land appro- priated or for changes of grade, the judg- ment fund of 1886, would at this time almost equal the amount of the original levy. During the past four s, covering my term of official service, claims against the city, aggre- ,]muug the sum of $203,441.62, have been disposed of and forever wiped out ot ex- 1stence, the city being held not liab! the extent of a dollar. In no case during that entire period of time has a verdict been returned unfavorable to the city or a judgment rendered adverse to the in terests of the city. 1n conclusion permit me to thank you for the interest you have always mani- fested in this department, and the kindly consideration and gentlemanly treat- ment I have always received at your hands, Notwithstanding our political ditferences, our personal and ()ll\cl:\l re- lations have always been most cordial and pleasant, and I have ever fouud you, asl have endeavored myself to be, a faithful representative of the interests of our eity. h sincere respect I remain very lrule{, your obedient servant, W.
