C. Cowin, counsel for the Motor com- pauy opened with the statement that addit- fonal aflldavits had beon filed by the city, and as they roquired careful examination, asked that the hearing of the argument go / over until next Mouday, and in the mean- L time the respondents could put in their { answer. On belalf of the city Wobster re plied that the latter "w dy to proceed with the case, but if the defonse wished continuance he would ask that 1t be extendod ) over to the 15th, as he had a business en- gagement in Now York for next Monday ovening, and wished to leave for thut city Saturday [ General Cowin observed that there was no } objection to be urged against this extension, ¢ but suggested that, inasmuch as the poles ' had been erccted o Douglagstrect as far as } the corner of Thirteenth Dy the Electric Laght company, and as arrangements could be eflected with this ocompany by the 1 motor, and s it was the general petition of the citizens along the line, the motor should be allowed Lo put their wires for this distance and operate e their cavs. He urged that it could result in no possible harm, and asked that the injune won be modified’ so that this could be ac- complished. Then, if it should be deter- mined at the final learing that the poles had been erected contrary to lew, they could be taken down, which Le assured the court the motor company would promptly do, If this modifieation of the restraining order were anted, the defense would press no objec- 1 to the extension of the continuance to the time specified Mr. Webster said the city could not con sent to such modification, because the posi tion of the defense is that they can erect their overhead wires in defi of the char tor, To allow this moditication, would, therefore, be to concede the entire casc This thing of creating a public nuisance and say “we will abate it after’ a certain time, is beyond a1l precedence and reason, Ho didu’t see how this could ba d c—this sanctioning of an illegal and unlawful actic Mr. Coanell for the M the provisions of the cha yr company, citad or, and added that as 800! s the court determined that it s practical for them to operate their wires under ground, the overhead could bo de. clared a public nuisance and removed. This could only be determined at the final hear- ing, and as the modification asked for by Mr. Cowin could effect no possible harm, he hoped 1 it would grant it John . Howe, counsel for defense, held that Mr, Webster was not consistent; that he had told him that if the ity council passed an ordinance allow ing th erection of these poles, and overhead wires, that would end the ca: The council had done so, und there were ely no grounds for a restraining orde Yow after ull this, continued the gentie man, “the city of Omaba, 1o, not the city of Omaha, but Mayor Broatch, single-handed and alone, takes up the fight on a plea that is absolutely devoid of merit. The council has never declared these poles a nuisance, yet the city, or Broatch clamors for a re- straining order.” Mr. Cowin did not coincide with his col- league, in the statement that ail_this opposi tion originated with Mr. Broatch, from the fact that the Electric Light company was likewise to be enjoined from erecting their poles, for they furnished electric light and 1ot gas. He repeated that he did not con- sider it M Broatch, nor the city of Omaha either, for that matter. The court took the matter under advise- ment, and just before adjourning Judge Doane announced their decision. He said : “Considering that the final hearing would have to be held over for two weeks, and as they could perceive of no injury aceruing to orty-nolders or any one else, by allowing thestringing of the wires along the line of Douglas street to the corner of Thirteenth, it the defendants were of a mind to take thé risk of what may bethe finale of the applica- ton for injunction, the court was disposed 0 modify the restaining order as asked. Therefore, the defendents may be permited to string their wires and or e their cars, subject to the order of the court in the final hearing of the case. There ean be no great injury effected by the permission of this modification, 1f it is determined to be mjurious or unlawful, an order may be madeaccordingly. General Cowin then added that it would probably require until Monday for them to answer to the additional aflidavits filed by compluinants, which was granted, and the was continued until the fifteenth. ting the Moto OMAna, Jan. 1.—To the Editor of Tie Ber To_all whom it may concern, citizens of 1, Knights of Labor, Trades Unions, and luboring men at large: Iy the intrest of all_enterprise and public nents 1 think it advisable to make a marks about the Omaha Motor Rail Road co which I belive is_being imposed on by the city Atorney in Restraining them from Erecting Poles for the completion of their line according to the Rights of their charter and 1 do further belive its a deep laid plott to keep times dull and keep men out of emuloyment to satisfy some other corporations who are not fricndly to the la- bor ellement the motor co will_cmploy 150 men as soon as their line will be in operation and would have several men to work now had not the city atorney interfeared. OxE Wiio Kxow. This was handed in by a man who claimed he had been employed by the Bridge Motor company. When asked how loug he thought it would take to set the poles in the business portion of the city, he replied that it might take a week, but he thought that tho company was being delayed in build- ing its powerhouse and car-shop. When nsked whether the company would not have to build a power-house and_ carshop, even if tho motor conductors wore laia under ground, he said that that would be the same, of course, but the company dian’t want to go ahead until they had the poles set. He admitted that the objections to putting the wires under ground was probably to avoid the expense.
