Booth, of Chicago, the gentlemen who have been in correspond with Lincoln partics relative sugar manufucturing plant, are in The gentiemen came upon a tele- gram from General MeBride, who has been actively at work to secure this plant for Lin- coln, and negotiations are now in progress. It has developed that two or three localities are anxious to secure the plant. W. H. B. Stout, Messrs. McBride and Melone and other land owners south of the city in the vicinity of the penitentiary ave anxious to get the plant for that locality. The Tovzalin in. terest at the platted town of Havelock, six les cast of the city, is in active campetition for the plant, and West Lincoln is also con- sidered a competitor. Some of the parties interested in the competition have suggested that each locality prepare und sabmit its proposition, allowing the projectors of the en- terprise to state which they will sctect, and then whatever extra assistance would be necessary to secure tho plant could be ob- tained from capitalists in the city who wish to nelp but are not directly interested in the point of loeation. Levalic and Booth desire, it possible, to harmonize matters in regard to the proposed location, und they were working on @& project to thisend yesterday. One suggestion of thewrs was that in each of the localities named receiving houses and crush be located and from them the liquid be ped to a cent in she heart of the city, where the and refining would be do Levalie, who has had practical exj o and work in & beet sugar plant in Canada, found that it was unprofitable to depend 'k||n“,\ upon ions for her, or in which s| ed, to collect insurance money may be due her upon the life of the de ulso 1o sign hor name to any receipt or paper in refation theroto, and to sell, control or dis- pose of in any mauncr any corporation stoc or property or any land lot or other prop which she may own or have any intere: - Christmas at Crelghton College.

In the introductory proposition the projectors asked of the cit- izens of Lincoln that they take one-fifth of the stock in the enterprise, that should be fur- nished in lands, and it is the very general opinion that & more liberal proposition for a plant of this extent could not be expected from any source. TUE BELT LINE PROJECT, Active measures are being adopted in the proposed belt line around the city, John C, Bonuell, one of the capital cit§’s en- ergetic rustlers in pyshing things, H. D. Perky, who, a short timie ago, luid before Lin- ess men and capitalists his proposed street car works, arrived in the city Wednes- day und is taking an active part m bringing both the question of the belt line and car works to a favorable solution. Yesterday Mr. Bounnell, Mr. Perky, Mr. Regan and Mr. Atkinson weut overa portion of the pro- posed line, and Mr, Perky has given out that whatever is aone in relation to the belt 1ine and the car works must be dono quickly. Mr. Bonnell yesterday stated that the city was practicully certain of securing both the line and the car works, and he felt cqually as confindent 1n regard to the beet sugar plant that, located on the belt line, would be one of thedmmedinte sources of revenue in the way of transportation. The surveyed line for i e road runs in close proximity to the stato hospital for the insane, to the stato pen- itentiary, to the new Weslyean university under course of construction, and to the state fair grounds, To owners of suburban prop- erty the rond means more than to any one clse, and they will evidently have the oppor- tunity in a very short time to show just how badly they want it. AN INTERESTING CASE. For the past two days an interesting case has been on trial in district ceurt entitled M. Osborne vs John Fitsgerald. The matter in controversy is the profits resulting from the construction of the Kenesaw cut off on the B. & M. railroad. Mr. Fitzgerald was the vontractor and his claim is that'Osborne was employed in the work on a salary. Osborne, on the other hand, claims that ho was i part- ner in the work and that under the agreement he was to receive a fourth of the profits. These profits, Osborne clafms, amonntoed to $120,000, but the testimony of the defense was that the profits were but §87,000. Jud, Piold who heard the case, took it under ad- visement. ‘Thero is an interesting Ly-play brought to mind by this case that will bo remembered by ¥ people ina number of towns in About six months. before this cut off was _contracted for, citizens of Platts- mouth, Syracuse, Beatrice and Fairbury dis- cussed and organized and had incorporated the Plattsmouth outhwestern railroad to run in a southwesterly direction from Platts- mouth to Avoca in that county, Syracuse, Otoe county, and on to Beatrice and a termi- ion ut Kairbury, Mr. Fitzgerald joined w corporation and from his long ex- ce in railrond work, was elceted prosi- Flemiug, deed . .

The board of public works held a meeting yesterday afternoon. Mr. Heimrod was ab- scnt. The first business transacted was the opening of bids for the construction of side- walks the comifi¢ year.

But st this particular juncture the Burling- ton, which was antagonized by the proposed road, came to the front, and the projectors of She Plattsmouth &'Southwestern awoke one dmoming to tind that the ident of their company had just recel an extensive con, t from the B. &M. This extensive con- tract was for building the Kenasaw cut off, and from thut day to this the Plattsmouth & Southwestern has oxisted only on paper. The incorporators of the dead re will undoubt- edly smile significantly at the profits in ques- tion on the cut off. THE WATERLOO CASE. The board of transportation were fn ses- sion yesterduy agreeing upon the findings in the Waterloo case, in which parties there complain that the Union Pacific, in erecting an carth embankment in place of a trestle at the approach to the bridge, have caused the river at high water to back over the country to the great damage of many land property owners, The board find that the eomplaint is ?unl and that the people are entitled to the relief and their findings cover an order that Juion Pacific, in refusing to accede to findings herctofore, had no ground:for their refusal and that the compluinants are en- titled under the facts to relief. CITY BREVITIES, The bond election moved along very quietly through the day and showed that a very light vote vote was being cast. The op- position to the bonds did not crop out to any extent and there were to workers at the polls With anti-bond tickets.
