Jim Creighton and Major Furay were clos- eted in room 24, and had no time to talk with newspaper men, and tne anticipated pleasures of an eulogy upon the beauties of Jefferson square and the virtues of Jim Croighton from one of these, and a few choice bits from Milton’s ““Paradise Lost” from the other, were not forthcoming.

" UNION PAC U'S ANSWER. Why Mte Telegeaph System Should Not Be Interfered With, The Union Pacific through its attorney, has filed an answer in the United States court at thisplace in which it is made defendant by the Western Union Telegraph company, plaintiff, Tho respondent states that it has no knowledge or _information suf- ficient to form a_belief touching the matters therein alleged in the complaint filed by the plaintiff concerning the organization, rights, property and franchises claimed, or the successive consolidations therein averred or of the rights thus acquired by the complainant. The defendant avers that be tween Omaha and Ogden 1t constructed, pur. unt to an act of congress, the railroad and telegraph line which was so required by the act. Itadmits that some other telegraph company constructed between Omaha and Ogden along its line, a telegraph line, but it does not know or adimt that sach telegraph line was a line of telegraph which was re. moved toand placed along defendant's line of road between Omaha and Ogden. — Defendant admits that in September, 1869, it entered into a ct with the sdtlantic’ & Pacific Telegraph company, whereby the Union Pa- citie company undertook to lease and devise said Telegraph company all its raph lines and equipments to have and to hold the same during the whole term of charter of said road and renewals thercof; subject to the rights of the United States and on condition that the said telegraph compuny would faithfully perform all the duties “imposed thereby. The defendant states that the Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph company in consideration of the lease, gave to it a portion of the stock of said telegraph company. The defendant states that 1n 1550 the Ainerican Union Telegraph company having con- structed lines of telewraph to Council’ Bluffs and Omaha demanded that the defendant perform all of its telegraphic duties as sp: fled in the act of congress of 183+ In order to comply with the demand the defense statos that it repossessed itself of said tele graph line and proporty that was formerly leased to the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph company on the ground that the right to lease the lines was beyond the power of the Union Pacific company. The defendant de. nies that the Western Union _ built the telegraph line from Kansas City 1o Denver, and maintains that the said lino was buiit by the Western rail- auy,now known as the Kansas Pa- oad company, which is now a por- tion of the Union Pacific system: and also denics that the government of the United States uccepted any telegraph line built by the complainant as a performance by said Kansas coum| and denies that said com- plainant was i any way reimbursed by the iutiff for the construction of said line. On contrary, it states that it was known to all the partics concerned that the said tele- graph Line was the property of the railroad company. The defendants cite that_ owing tothe act of congress August 7, ISSS, in which it becomes the imperative duty of the Union Pacific to operate and maintamn through their own respective corporate ofi- cers and employes, telegraph lines, and exer- cise by themselves alone all the telegraphic franchises conferred upon them, the contract of 1581 with the Westcrn Union is _superse- ded, and that, with the exception of Omaha, Fremont, Grand Island, Cheyenne and Og- den the defendant has as yet lived up to i said contract ant admits that for adistance of from Omaha westward on the line of railroad, which form- erly the line of the Union Pacific, and now known as the main lime (Union Division) of the Union Pacific,having decayed and needed coustrution, have been repluced by a - single line of new poles situated on the defendant’s right of way, but denies that said line was constructed by the plaintiff, and avers that the same was constructed jointly by the plain- tiff and defendant. The defendant also de- nies that the plaintiff has strung three wires from Omaha to North Platte,and two beyond North Platte for the use of defendant, and avers that two of the wires referrcd to be- tween Omahaand North Platte were those originally leased by the defendant to the At- lantie & Pacific telegraph company; also that the third wire was constructed by the defendant at its own cost and without any assistance on the part of the plaintiff; also that the two wires which the plaintiff alleges to have strung west_of North Platte were those leased by the Union Pacific to the At lautic & Pacific telegraph company, and that the wires were merely transferred from its old to the new poles.” The defendant asks that the case be dismissed and that the plain- tiff be vestrained from interfering in the matte More substantial benefit can be ob- tained from a 50 cent bottleof Dr. Bige- low’s Positive Cure than a dollar bottle of any other cough remedy. It is a prompt, safe and pleasant cure for all throat and lung troubles. Goodman Drug Co. STRUCK BY AN ENGINE. A U. P. Yardman Seriously Injured While at Work. Con Hetzler, assistant yardmaster of the Union Pacific at this place. had a narrow es- cape from death late Sunday afternoon. He was walking in the yards east of the depot when suddenly he was hurled from the track a distance of ten feet by a switeh en- gine that approached from the rear. The beam of the engine, No. 1,168, struck him in the back, and threw him between the wheels of a flatear which was standing on the opposite side. His face was badly cut by the cinders and clinkers on the_track and a severe scalp wound was made i his head when it came in contact with the wheels of the flat_car. He was rendered unconscious for a short time, and afterwards conveyed to his room on Seventh avenue and Pierce street, where a physician attended him, The cut'in the head is not. considered dangerous but the blow which he received in the back has injured s spine and may result fatally or make him a eripple for lify Mr. Hetzler is unmarried and is said to hay parents residing at_some point in lowa. It is stated that wien the engine struck him, it was running ata rapid rate and that no signal was sounded.

Bish op's exclamation as he met a Bee reporter at the Millard hotel entrance Sunday afternoon, Mr. Bishop is the Omaha manager of the Consolidated Tank line company, “Tam deeply interested in the result of this fight,” he conunued, “‘and from present indications we are certain to win it. I have been putting in the afternoon among the business men talking Farnam street and arousing an nterest in the contest that will bear good fruit on February 5. I have just left Ben Gallagher, of Paxton & Gailagher. and he, in common with the rest of the job- bers doing business south of Dodge street, are outspoken in opposition to the scheme of trundling the city ball balf a wile north of the business cenier.

The Bulk of Them Say Finish It on Farnam Streot. VERY FEW SQUARE ADVOCATES. Proximity Rea- the Convenience, Acceasibitity And Faith With lnvestors th sons They Advance for Present Oity Hall Site. All Friends of Farnan The preference given below are those of who are heavy Omaha real estate own- and consequently heavy taxpayer Byron Reed—Tam in favor of locatin, the postoffice and city hall on the hill Eighteenth occupies the same relation to Omaha as Fifth street to St Lhuis, The site is high and sightly and located on an eminence, The property in the vicinity can be bought cheap now, but in my opinion it is just as valuable for business purposes as the level ground below Fiftecnth street. As regards those who invested money in prop erty in the vicinity I do not think it should have any bearing on the case; they took the risk without considering that private inter ests care nothing for public interests in the location of public buildings, Notwitstand- ing, I am decidedly in favor of completing the city hall on the present site, x-Senator Saunders—I prefer the hill for all public buildings, I helped to locato the high school building on the hill, and I have never regretted it. It advertises Omaha. It is the first structure noticed by the traveler eotering Omaba from any direction. I would prefer more ground in the present lo- cation, and it can be had if it is wanted. Jefferson square should be preserved for the people. 1L would be a mistake to erect a public building on it. Durmg my recent visit to New York city Iwas struck by the beauty of the public squares which abound. No public buildings are near them, but the front doors of the leading hotels of the metropolis open out on them. Private cap- ital has been invested on Farnam street on the strength of Omaha's promise, once ex- pressed at the polls, that the city hall would be erected on Kighteenth street. Our firm sold the Burley corner on Seventeenth ana Farnam strects to Missouri capitalists ou the promise thut the New York Life would crect their magnificent structure opposite, and the city would erect its building a block distant. 1 am strongly opposed to a change of site. Alfred Millard (sp strest. me ers, both does aking for the Ezra Mil- lard estate) —The street site offers abundunt room to erect a building to accom- todate a ety of 400,000 people, It is con- venent for all classes, offers abundant light and ventilation and is central and accessible, “The location has been decided once, and if it can be changed now it can be chanized indef- initely. Our bank (Commercial Nationuly purctiased the old city hall lot on Sixteenth and Farnam strects, and intend to ereet banking house there the coming season, The it thut the corner of Bightecnth and nam had been decided on for the new city 1l contributed, in a degree m deciding us to invest on Sixteenth street. It is a ridiculous proposition to separate the court house and the city hall by half a mile. The square should ‘be kept for a public park and im proved and beautitied. It is no place for the city building. C. W. Hamilton—I don’t like either loca tion, but as between the two I prefer the % nam street site. In a few years it will be the business center of the city. A decision 10 complete the building there would benefit me personally, but 1 would prefer to see more rovm secured. Lewis S. Reed—The city hall has been lo- cated on Bighteenth and Farnam streets and I prefer to see it remain there. Henry \V. Yates—I am not particularly in favor of tho square. T favor it against the present site only because it affords room for the erection of a suitable build-+| ing. Herman Kountze—As between the two places 1 think my interests would be best served if the city hall is located on Jefferson square. As to the location of the city hall for convenicnce and accessibility of theé pub- lie, I think neither of the two is the best lo cation that might have been selected, Jeffer- son squre_being too far north for the con- venience of the bus ness of the city and the present site beng o the hill is somewhat dificult of access.” All such buildings should be placed rear the business center of a city and without reference to the residence por- tion. How the city hall was placed on the present by a vote of the peovle and larg and important property investments and improvements have "been made on the faith of its Iocation, and it is unfair and unbusi- nesslike to destroy property investments after they have been created on the basis that the city would carry out in good faith its promises to the community. 1do not believe that the present site'is adapted tg the erection of a building, such as some of our citizens contemplate, costing about 000, which with the ordinary results of ‘such buildings will expend the contemplated cash, and the city will find on its hands a building costing $600,000 or §00,000. The maintenance of such a building will be a constaut and permanent burden to the city, and in our present condition we are not pr pared to enter upon such an enterprise. For a city hull such as was at first_contemplated the present site is ample and suflicient, and such a building would afford to the city all the accommodations that are nceded for many years to come, In fact, I question whetlier the preseut city hall in’ New York city has any more spare room for oftices than the building proposed to be erected on the present site, Meyer Hellman—The Parnam street site is close to the court house. The people have voted on it once, and that decision_should be repeated. The location is a far better one than Jefferson Square. It is wrong to in- Quce capital to invest in Omaha on promises made at the polls and then endeavor to go back on these promises, These imvestor should be protected if Omaha wishes to sus- tain her good reputation. 1 consider the pre entsite ample to erceta building large enough to accommodate Omaha for fifty years to come. George Krug, Traveling Manager An heuser-Busch Brewing Association—Omaha's city hall should be erected on the Farnam street site. 1By doing so faith will be kept with outside investors, 1 have induced my bouse to invest £200,000 in Omaha, the most of it in the fine buildings recently "completed on Thirtcenth and Jones streets, This was ac- complished by showing them Omaha's advan- tages, and the push, enterprise and mtegrity of her citizens. The Farnum street site i3 the best for general convemience, Frank Murphy—The present site is cen- tral, convenient and eligible. A start was made there, and the building should be pushed to completion on the foundations al- ready laid. Fred Metz—I want the building completed on Farnam street. You can't convince me thata dozen disgruntled property owners are all Omaha, and [ am not going to help them on in their fizht against the public good. The money of the taxpayers has been in- vested in # foundation, and it should not be wasted, It is our duty as good citizens to see to 1t thatoutside and local capitalists who have invested money on the faith of prom- ises made at the polls should be protected. I'am just fresh from an argument had in a Thirteenth resort on this quostion, and I was gratified to find that whewwe were vthrough the dozen voters composing the party agrecd to cast their ballots for the present site. W. G. Albright—The proper place for Omahw's city ball is near the court house. The money already pail out for the founda- tion should not be wasted, and investors should be protected. H. T, Clarke—I expect to vote for Jeffer- s0n 8qu I have property near there. I think it is the best location because it affords wore room. Dick MeCormick—Finish the building on Farnam street and keep our public buildings together. Omaba's reputation us u place for investment will be seriously damaged, if we make a change after it bas been decided onge George Mills—1 agree with mick. : Aaron Cahn—Farnam street is the place, It was voted there once and there it should remain. George A. Hoagland 1 prefer the Farnam street site. Of course it will be said that because [ own considerable property in_the vieimty I favor it for selfish reasous. Not- withstanding that 1 want ivun lerstood that Tam decidedly opposed 1o breaing faith Mr. McCor- NESDAY JANUARY 30, | 1589, with local or outside investors, who are putting money into fine structures in Omaha, and contributing to making her the city she ia destined to be.
