Besides that, he had put in extras at the request of the plaintif; and these extras and the balance on the main contract made . sum of H1%, which he asked to bo allowed on a m ifen that he had filed.

Taking the testimony under advisement until 1 o'clock, Judge Chapman decided that this was a suit in which, if both parties had acted more wisely and Joved more wisely, why they would have been better off, substantially that they both would be beater and tiat they deserved to bo beaten. Upon considcration of the testi- mony he considered there were defects in the building, but that the plaintiff had ac cepted it. After full consideration he de- cided to allow the defendant §i5 on uccount of extras, but that cach side would have to pay for its own witnesses and costs would be divided between them.

Those who remained Omaha after the trouble was adjudicated have been patiently waiting a summons to return to work, but as yet no such summons has been given by the Buriington. One of the str ng of the matter, said The Burlington has actually taken a snap judgment on the brotherhiood. In the settle ment, we did not realize that tho terms of the agreament gave the Burlington such a big scope, but aftor it is too late we have ' discovered that, while the areenot taking back any of the o men (strikers) they noverthcless have com lied with the agreement. No, sir, and in my opin take back a single one of the boys, aund what can wo do? Our honor is_recorded in the terms of the agroement to abide by just what is being done. The fact of the matter is that our committeo was snort-sighted, and did not comprehend the terms of the agrec. ment in their proper hight. It should have 2 ference for brotherhood men unskilled labor, and, in place of promo- tion of unskilled firemen. Under the pres. ent condition of affairs, the Burlington has two available sots of men for engincers, the engineers proper and the firemen, to pro: mote in casc of & vacancy. Engineers will not go in as firemen, and as a consequence the brotherhood is shut out by the Burling: ton. We have filed applications for positions, but with this the matter rests. Inquiry at other points goes to show that the strikers' have become disgusted with the state of affairs, and are migrating to other climes in quest of work kers, in speak Railroad Curiositios.

THE DAY IN THE COURTS, How Judges and Litigants Attracted Reportorial Attention. were gloomy and solemn and indwelling of justico vesterday. Four sad-looking attorneys constituted the collection present when Judges Groft and Hopowell took their seats and Clerk Moores commenced his one-act comedy in advauce of tho day's business It was so dark in the big room that gas jots had to be lighted. Outside, immense clouds of smoke rolled against the windows and then suddenly floated away as though disap- pointed at not having been given admission to the forum, The attorneys, witnesses and jurymen were late, a matter that scemod to displease Judge Groff. Tne latter took occasion to mildly reprimand the county attorney for it, The jurymen were called to their seats and Things damp about the gres tlemen, the case now befol "sald the county attorney, “is” one in which Harry Hily is charged with burglary on the night of January 8§, He broke into the apartments of Hugh Huckins, S09 How ard street, and attempted to carr wain goods. Mrs. Huckins went %0 tho theater that night. Her husband was absent all d About 12 o'clock he came home, and o entering discovered a strange man in the hall, who struck at him. There and then they clinched, struggled and fought, but Huckins, who proved the better man, succeoded in getting his enemy out of doo nd turned him over to a police officer. Tha party,” continued the attornoy, *‘is the prisoner before you. We will show that he entered the house through a window and had broken open a trunk.

The transaction out of which this suit be- came a fact, took place in September, 1380, Judge Wakeley called the docket and hoard statements from a number of attor- neys regarding their case. Before Justice Doane. The Goddard-Sweeney jury was instructed by the judge early, and retired. The jury is still ouv in the Goddard vs Sweesy case, After cailing the doclket and finding noth- ing ready for trial, this branch of the court took a recess unul_to-day. The following cases were disposed of : Voss vs Clark, consolidated with another case. Hajek vs Hascall, dismissed by plaintiff. Lowe vs Omaha, continued to ono week from next Mouds, Hess vs Iiby et al, continued for thirty days. T'he Lowe-city controversy promises to be fraught with considerable interest.

WHERE THE BUILDING ISWANTED, Looations Probably to Be Offered #rom Lower Tenth to Twentieth and From Dodge to Hows ard Strocts. The Postoffice. Tn the telograph columns of Trne yestorday appeared a telegram from Washing. ton setting forth that bids for the proposed site of the new postofice will be received until the 234 of this month. The informa- tion comes in a letter addressed to Senator Manderson by W, A. Fei supervising architect of the government at Washington, The news was unexpected,fand, following so soon after the action taken by the board of trade in the matter, shows, in the estimation 108t peonle who have considered the sub- that Senator Manderson has acted in rdance with the wishes there expressed, and brought the matter to the immediato attention of the governing authorities. Still further proof of this 1s evidenced by tho fact that tho proposals for the site in question are to be opencd at 8o early a date. Itis evidence that, at loast, as far as Senator Manderson nd the architectual department of u\q\ govern- ment are concerned, the work will be put under way at as early u date us possible. It is stated that = the property of- fered must be of one of two sizes either 200x250 feot if a corner lot, or if it bo not a corner lot it must be 200x200 feot. The latter dimensions have attracted some atten- tion because it would be ingossible to satisfy ¢ any square in the city as present, wdrangle at the prosent time including the width of the alley 930 feot. If this determination should be persisted in, the extra ten foet could be secured only by cutting five fect off each of the two streets or ten feet from one street frontawe. It is also noticed that these proposals will be received at the o of the ter in this city. This of course vou great deal of time which would ise be consumed in transmission to hington. The telegram roferred to _attracted very goneral attention_among the real estate and business men of Omaha, many of whom for somo time past have been secretly securing favorable options upon sites advantageous to themselves, or which the owners desire to sell. Thesc sites are numerous, and _include a number of valuable blocks in the business part of town, Somo people have spoken in favor of the northwest corner of Sixteenth and Douglas streets, which is, in a large part, the property of the Folsom estate. Others 2 poken in favor of what is known in of what is known as the Planters houso corncr at Sixteenth and Dodge. To these, however, objections are made on the ground that the Folsom estate will not have been apportioned according to the manner now in progress prior to Avril 1, before which time it is thought that tha proposed site will have been selected The Hoagland property on Sixteenth and St. Mary’s avenue, including Landrock’s at Seventeenth and St. Mary’s avenue,together with the Lowe property between Sixteenth and Seventecnth streets, and facing on Har- ney street, has also been referred to, and is upposed to have a number of frionds. The block facing on Farnam street and bounded on the east by Eighteenth street, as also one further west on Farnam, have been mentioned. Still another is tha block bounded by Thirteenth, Howard, Fourteenth and Har- ney, and now covered with a number of buildings, some of which are not considercd very valuable. On Cavitol avenue and Sixteenth street nortn of the former thoroughfare is a block which is thought well of by a numbver, the main_objection being that it contains some valuable buildings. The jobbing men of the city have been seen and it is estimated that nine out of ten of them are well disposed to the prop- crty _on the southeast corner of Tenth and Farnam streets. This property is prac unincumbered with buildings in part. general impression seems to bo that a square between Seventeenth and Twentieth and Dodge and Douglas streets should be se- lected. It is claimed that a square within this ter- ritory could be purchased for perhaps a lit- tle more than onec-half of the #00,000 alloted for this purpose, but that after the purchase the property would be valued at douvle that amount. Some grading would be required in orde to adapt these sites to tne surrounding locality, and also possibly to the erection of the building, but it is stated that this erading could be done for less than §30,000. The subject to-day has been pretty generally canvassed und it is_expected that before the 23d the proposals filed with the local post- master wall be far in excess of the number at first anticipated.
