STREET RAILWAY AFFAIRS. Mr. Paddook Knows of No Propo- sitlon to Buy the Lines. AN OPPRESSIVE ORDINANCE, Dr. Mercer's Statement Concerning Recent Ramors—L. B, Willlams Becomes Director of the “Con- wsolidated” Company. Paddock's Denfal. Senator Paddock was questioned as to tho reliability of the story that he had brought from Messrs. Ames and Dillon, of New York, an offer to purchase the Omaha street and motor railways, and answered : “I positively brought no such offer, have 1o knowledge that any proposition of the kind has been made, and don't believe the stroet railway company wants t5 sell out,” “It {8 charged by the opposition company that the Omaha street raillway company is building with a view to sciling out,” su- gosted the reporter. But this failed to bring out an expression as to whether the allega- tion was true or false. . The senator was also asked why his com pany had sought its franchise under the name of the cable company in South Omuha. *0," said he, ‘‘the nanies remain as they always were, The cable company has a per fect right 1o do as 1t pleases in that matter.” *‘How soon do )ou expect to commence building down there!" “At once.” An Interview With Mercer, ““This talk about the consolidation of our 1ine with the other consolidated lines,” said Dr. Mercer, of the motor company, yes- terday, “is all nonsense. We have no de- sire to consolidate, and no desire to sell. It would be folly for us to do so now, at a time when the road will begin to earn a little something. Building streot railways in ‘Omaha just now is a burden, let me tell you. Take the ordinance recently passed by the council; its oppressive. A certain city ofi- cial who had an axe to grind suggested to Councilman Wheeler that it would be a good thing to make the street railways pay for paving on strects over which their lines run, and Wheeler, thinking it would be a smart thiog for him to do, railroaded it through the council. The ordinance is oppressive and will prevent the construction of at least fifteen miles of street railway 1n the city this year. It will require an outlay of $40,000 on our part, and to keep faith with the people we must pay that sum, butat the same time we know that the city is too small to justify the outlay. Many coun ien voted for the ordinance without a thorough knowledge of its provisions. It was never referred to a committee, but was rushed through without critical examination. We think the other lide, also would be perfectling willing to concede any regulating ordinance, but we object to the one now existiong which prac- tically amounts to the confiscation of prop- for tive years, No city can be builtup under such circum- stances. We shall sue the city to recover the amount we have paid into the treasury in this way.” Director Willinms. There is now a great deal of harmony in the Omaba Street Railway company, and it is said it is likely to continue until the ques- tion of selling the plant to Dillon and Ames is considered. The contest in the court, ‘which L. B. Williams threatens, has been averted by that gentleman being placod on the board of directors. It will be remembered that when the Cable Tramway company consolidated with the Omaha Horse Railway company, a new board of directors was elected. Mr. Wil liams was not included in the membership, although he bad been a momber of the cable tramway board, and held something like $240,000 in stock in the concern. ‘This omission incensed him greatly, espe- cially because others who held less stock than he did had been placed upon the boara. He promised to bring the matter into the courts, At the last meeting of the company, B. F. Smith of Boston, resigned as a_director, to maintain harmony, and L. B. Wilhams was elected in his stead, The board now com- prises the following gentlemen: Frank Murphy, S. R. Johuson, Guy Barton, Sena- tor Paddock, Captain Rustin, W. V. Mors Captain Marsh L. B, Williams and ex-Super: intendent Smith. Mr. Williams states thav the Hurney street line is now paying expenses, and the patro- nage is increasing upon it, while the income is derived from the Twentieth street and other lines, “T'he receipts, one day last week, from all the lines, were $1.300. The number of pas- sengers carried ranges from 20,000 to 25,000, ‘Will Not Consolidate. “The rumors of an impending consolida- tion between the Omaha Street Railway com- pany and the Omaha Electric Motor company are entirely unfounded,” said a large stock- holtder of the street railway company yes- terday. “So far as our pcople have any information no one of our directors has pre- sented a proposition from Mr. Ames, Mr. Dillon. or any other capitalist, looking to a union of these interests. As a matter of fact the Omaha Street Railway company is going ahead in the face of all obstacles, legal and otherwise, which the motor company has thrown in'its way, and is preparing to give the citizens of this city the best united cable, electric und horse railway system that exists anywhere in the United States. Had it not beon for the persistent and vicious attacks of the electric motor company upon our system, the sole object of which scems to have been to force us to take them into the fold at their own figures, we should long before this have built two miles of addivional cable railway. The only result the opposition has been to str up & public opinion in favor of additional electric railways, no matter ‘whether the rights of the public were in vaded, as we still believe they ure, by th erection of overhead poles and a mid-street troiley. Bofore the creation of this unjust, and to some extent adverse publicsentiment, our company was earnestly studying the storage battory system. Four of our dircc. tors spent thréo weeks in New York in in- vestigating the Fourth avenue line, which is controlled by the Vanderbilts, and upon which the = storage battery = system is now to o liomted exteni in opera tion. When they left New York every indication pointed to the adoption within six months of the storago butfery system upon the Fourth avenue line. When 1t is con- d that such a system will be operated the control of the Vanderbilts, con- servativo and shrewd business wmen, it can be seen what we, as well as the people of Omaha, have probably lost by being forced o compete with the poles und overhead wires of the electric motor company. 450 far as wo are able to ascertain, the only object of these attacks upon our com- any by tho motor corporation is in the in- aruul of Mr. Ames and Mr. Dillon, and has for its aiwm the discrediting of our securities and the depressing of our stocks by tem- porary suits wuich will not win in the end, and to order that we may be forced at some future t'me either to consolidate with the amotor company or sell our luvestmont at do- preeiated figures to Ames, Dillon & Co. You cun bo assured that this scheme will not win. The Omaha Sureot Ruilway company have forty-five miles of track now in operu tion, aud will soon ald five more of electric road, and_ propose to show the people of (o N corporations is bonestly attempting to carry out its pledges of the best facilities and awple service to the citizens of Omalia.” ——— To Extend 1ts Line, ‘The Owaba street railway company has applied for a permnt to extend its line from Park avenue and Pacific street, west to Thirty-second, thence south to Woolworti wvenue, west to Thirty-fourth street, thence south to the city limits, The Rate Kight ' The demand by the Chicago board of trade that packing-house products aud live stock be equalized from o rate standpomnt will be met with cousiderable opposition when it gomes up before the iuterstate commerce of commission for a hearing at Chicago Monday noxt. Until recentiy, the packers at Mis. souri river points have appeared to advance singlo handed, the railronds disclaiming any interest in the fight and taking a neutral stand betwoeen the two factions, Within the_past fow days a change has taken place. Yesterday Goneral Trafic Man- ager Mellen of the Union Pacific started for Chicago and will put in some good work in favor of the western packers, A .report is also curtent that the lowa les will oppose the demand of the Chicago packers, Karly in the fight, these lines informed the packer that they would remain neutral.

THE NEW COUNTY HOSPITAL. ssioners Charge Myers With Humbugging Them Again. Architect Myers, of the new county hospi- tal, sent the board of county commissioners, yesterday afternoon, a communication in reply to the recommendations of John F. Coots, superintendent of coustruction of the hospital, on the proposed changes, relative to putting in four or more one-inch rods acros the extreme ends of the north and south cor- ridors, as recommended by the superintend- ent, the architect says he fully approves of the plan, for the reason that the arches have been so built and the centers removea be- fore the cement has had time to become suffi- ciently hard, that the walls have spread, and to remedy the evil these rods become an act- ual necessity. Thearchitect says that had the arches been properly built and sulicient time allowed for the cement to becomo thorouphly set, there uever would have been any necessity for the rods. Mr. Myers also recommended the placing of twilers in the room intended for fuel, setting the rear of the boilers about taree feet from the rear wall, 50 a8 to allow acce: Dipe . deeper. This will require the swam supply pives to be run dir under the arches. He asked that the cast iron cover over the pipes that are laid below the busement floor be omitted, und that the cost thereof be de ducted from the steam contractors’ In the examnation of the specifi the brick work, Mr. My t be ascertained if the specif] jons had been fully cowplied with. The architcet also suggested that all the floors of the cor- ridors and rooms bo furnished as follows 2x4 pieces be placed sixteen inches be n thew centres, cut to fit the brick arches and filled up between the timbers a even with coment mortor. After the floor is 1aad, and after all work is completed in any room or corrider, the surface is to bo smoothed off and then to receive two coats of linseed oil. The communication was not exactly what the board wanted. Mr. Coots made several recommenaations that tho architect, it is said, ovaded entirely, The board sent him several papers to sien in_coucurrence with the proposed changes, and he returned, by way of reply, the communication, o Speaking to Chairnan Mount, when the communication was read, Mr. O'Keoffo stated that the board had been humbugged awain by Myers, “Heo thinks we are a lot of fools, and he is playing us us such,” said Mr. O'Keeffe, SThat communication is not what we asked for. We either wauted a favorable or an un- favorable opinion on Superintendent Coots recommendations, which were sent to Myers the early part of the month. ‘The communication will be read for action at Saturday afternoon’s mecting of the board. t it The West: Art Associa n. There was u large attendance at the art ex- Libit last evening.
