THE OMAHA DAILY BEE!THURSDAY. MAY 10, 1888, 3 price last night was 110. This morning it opened at 116 and hung between 116 and 117 up 1o 2 o'clock, the trading up to noon being 2,780 shares, which is considered good busi- ness for quict stock. The general list was #old freely by the bears during the morning, and declines of 3 to ¢ points were recorded, the latter being on Manhattan. The bear leaders took advantage of the free outpour- ing of stocks to cover, but tailers oversold themselves and in their efforts to get their stocks back bid them up with more rapidity than they had previously sold them. All early declines were recovered and fair ad- vances cstablished, The market gained strength the last hour. Burlington advanced 3 and closed 117%{. Closing prices on the Test of the active list were at about the out- side figures of the day, and the recorded gains of about 4@l point over yesterday's reaction were only natural after the recent break. The total sales were 336,000, shares. GOVERNVE Government bonds were quiet but steady. YESTERDAY'S QUOTATIONS, U. B registered. 120% C. & N. W nupon.. . 126%| do preferred. & registred . 106% N. Y .

There have been few, if any, more im- portant meetings held in SouttwOmaba than the one that met in the Exchange hotel par- lors Tuesday afternoon. Those prosent were few in number, but they represented all the important interests of the city. P. E. Tler was there on behalf of the South Omaha Land syndicate, John Boyd for the Stock- rds company, Councilmen Smith, Bayliss, McMillan and Rafferty for the eity and Messrs, Persons, Hunt, Howland, Cockerell, Anderson and Erion for the board of trade. The meeting was not a formal one, but one in which the best interests of South Omaha were represented, and in which routine busi- ness was supplanted by an informal talk in which all present became better acquainted, and many little differences were amicably explained. Hon. W. A, Paxton would have been there ouly that he was prevented by ill ness, and Mr. Iler as far as possible took his place. It is safe to say that the policy of the Stackyards Co. and of the land syndicate, was never so thoroughly understood as at the meeting, and that it was never before so thoroughly understood tiat the best inter- ests of South Omaha aze identical with the best interests of those companies, The grading of Twenty-fourth street was first considered and Mr. Iler explained that his company had agreed to expend $2,000 for that purpose, with the understanding that the work would be done within the limits of South Omaha. The agresment had been partly written and partly verbal, but the company had expended the necessary £2,000 1t remained for the county commissioners to complete it, and he had ‘no doubt but that they would, The grade had never been offi- cially establisheq, but it was intended to be of full width—100 feet. The main object of the Land company was to secure a road through to Owmaha, and the quickest and most direct way was along Twenty-fourth street to Vinton and up Vinton to tecnth, They had secured the services of an attorney to fina out if the county com- missioners could legally do any pa grading along the route within the limits. He thought, however, that Omaha should provide for sewers, water and gas before domng any paving. When the question of viaducts came up he said that the two proposed would cost about £70,000 or £80,000 apicce, and in the present state of the city’s finances he thought the one at L street wouldanswer all purposes for the present and be of more practical benefit to the city. It would connect with Omaha by way of Twenty-fourth street, and furnish a good roadway for Armour & Co. and any other packers who wanted to supply the re- tail markets, He thought the city could not stand the expense of both viaducts, aud that if in order to do it they made a high assess. ment or an_excessive levy, they would only drive from the town the manufacturcrs that other cities are trying to attract. The land company was willing to construct the L street, viaduct at their own expense providing the one at Q street was not built on the proceeds of bonds issued. If bonds were to be issued, they should be issued for both, and n any case the land company and the stock vards company would bear the greatest share of the cost, as they were the heaviest taxpayers. The companies did not wish in any way to oppose the Q street via- duct, but wished it to be understood that they at all times wished to be hand and glove with those working for the interest of South Omaha. I'hey-were will to be very liberal. Further discussion ensued,in which Councilmen Bayliss, Smith, Rafferty and McMillan, as well as the board of trade ren- resentatives, pointed out that the Q street viaduct was a necessity, as nearly all railway facilities occurred there, and a man’s life was worth more than the estimated cost. Finally, Mr. Tler said that if they wished to issue bonds to build the land company would not only offer no opposition, but he thought™ would cash nearly, if not all, the bonds issued. e, however, advised them to go slow, and not go into needless expense. Regarding sewerage, he thought the stockyards company would have 10 objection to N street being drained into their big sewer, and he would call a meeting of that company any time the city council desired. Before he left it was in a manner understood that the proposed improvements would include the two viaducts, the com- pletion of the grade on Twenty-fourth street, asoweron N strect, the paving of N street between Twenty-seventh and Twenty-fourth streets and a stone pavement on Twenty- seventh street between N and Q. Citizens will be called upon to vote for the necessary bonds, which will be made payable twenty years from daie, and only cost present prop- erty owners a slight annual tax. In the mean time the money w Omaha and the magic city will boom. This Year's Assessment. Within twenty-one days, or on Juue 1, the South Omaha assessors will be prepared to hand in their vualuations. and the result will be a surprise party to many. To some it may be an unpleasant surprise, but to the great majority it will show that some men at least can fearlessly do their duty., They have gone about it in the manner outhned in Tug Bep, and as a vresult the assessment will be advanced from last year's figures of £590,000, to about 2,000,000 or £2,500,000. and this incr ease is not to be placed on the pack- ing houses or manufacturers, as muny sup- posed it would. They will have to bear a share, but the as S have recognized the fact that some consi due them I'ur having helped to build up the city, and the employment of labor still helping to it where it is, It is after men will have a lot assessed at $I0, and then ask #300 for it, the are looking, and they have come across several. One lot was valued at $300 last year and this year it will show upat £3,500. There are many more such cases but it is only right to say that Assessor Kane, and his assistants R.J. Curtin_and James Dougherty are try- ing to look after them all and perform their duty without fear or favor.» who Notes About the City. 0. Owenson, of Chapman, had two cars of cattle on the market, J. 8. Umstead came in from Fullerton with a load of cattle. C. Rudat brought in three loads of Norfolk cattle and one load of hogs. J.T. Benedict was on the market with four loads of Hastings cattle. ‘The Exchange hotel guests yesterday were: J. N. Welb, Bedford, la.; Alex Segman, F.J. Benedict, Hastings; H. Marsh, W. Martin, Chicago; V. Allyn, Broken Bow; R. Bada, Silver City, and A. Stevers, Cedar Creck. Already seventy citizens have applied for shares in the ball club association. Only 100 are required, and it can be safely said that South Omaha sporting men support home industry. Louis Slecher, of North Bend, is stopping at the City hotel. He came in with a load of cattle, Tom Kelly is on the market with two cars of cattle from Pleasant Valley, He has reg- istered at the City hotel. Nine-tenths of Douglas county taxes are paid by Omaha and South Omaba, and yet the law won't let the commissioners grade a street to connect them, Pat Rice, jr., has not yet joined the force, as this is only his second day in the world.
