THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY. MERCHANTS' WEEK AND FAIR The Autumnal Celebrations to Ocour Simultaneously. AMUSEMENTS IN LARGE DOSES, A Grand Double Bill of Attractions to be Provided for Omaha's Country Visitors—Lagt Night's Meeting. Will be Held Together. Merchants' week and the fair are to be held at the same time. This was decided by the Merchant's woek committee last evening. Joseph Garneau called the meeting to or- der, and W. G. Taylor was installed in the secretary’s chair. Then arose the question of a suitable date. Mr. W. A. L. Gibbon thought no wiser plan @uld be provided than to double attractions on the visitors. Lot the fair and merchants’ celcbration come together. While our country cousins are here, give them amuse- monts in large doses. Mr. William I Kicrsiead approved Mr. @ibbon's sentiments. He also suggested that he was a very fastidious sortof man who would not consider a_trip through Tite Brr and New York Life buildings alone ‘worth the time he spent in coming to Omaha, Mr. Louis Heimrod said something about cutting the weck to three days, but his prop- osition was not considered at all. John A, Wakefleld thought the manage- ment was catering 00 wuch to the fair di- rectors. -'If you want to advertise and work for the fair why not come out and say so at orce! Dut it seems to me that we might have our Merchants' week celebration a quiot, pleasant gathering of merchants.” Mr. Wakefleld is chairman of the commit- toe on finance and an important man on the Jexccutive committue, and everyone felt bot- “ter when he came into line after awhile and saia he would work as hard as anybody to muke it all a success. And then there was the other question ot money. How to find out the necessary amount, how to raise it and what to speua it for, were serious questions. Joseph Garneau suggested $10,000, and said lie hudn’t a doubt but what £5,000 could be raised easily. Mr. Wakeflold wasu’t very sanguine, and said he thought havd work might raise the stake to $1,000. “Nonsense,” replied Garneau, raise $500 here iir this mecting.” “Put down Dewey & Stone for $50 right now,” Kierstead shouted. “We can raise §500 among the packers of South Omaha,” came from H. H. Meda; the pork-packing suburb, ‘*And even if, a8 Mr. Wakefleld says, the fair knocks T the subscriptions, 1t will save $ apother way. It will be 80 much amusement ‘we won't have to pay for,” ‘When this discussion ended all committees sgreed to report the amount they needed at the next meeting, and in that way show the Decessary total. As 10 the way outdoor amusements should be conducted, no_one had a vlan to urge very strongly. Plans which had been sug- ested in Tix Ber were mentioned, and tho ollowing suggestions were made. First, there might be ward organizations of horse: men, uniformed or carrying torches, who, well trained, could make a pretty appear- ance. A banner to be given the best drilled organization would stimulate hard work n the direction of efficiency. Or, the old plan of getting out a number of floats might be adopted. It is a little more expensive than tho others, but always good. Last, a bril- liant display of fire works might be made from tho tos of the New York Lifeand Ber buildings, where overyone could see them. Each of these motions was well received, but no action was taken. After deciding to meet herealter every Tuesday night, the committes adopted Mr. ‘William F. Bechel’s resolution that the ofi- cers of the fair association and the Coliscum directors be invited to meet the executive committee next Tuesday night. The sccretary announced the following committees and the mecting adjourned : Finance—John A. Wakefield, W. N. Bab- ok, W. B. Clark, N. B. Falconer, C. B. oore, John A.

The new members are said to have formed a compact looking to a thorough reorganiza- tion of the committeas, Secret meetings have been held, and a definite line of action was mapped out and agreed upon. Evidence of this first came to the surface when Mr. C F. Goodman was a weck ago elected to the presidency of the board, vice Mr. Henry T Clarke. Meanwhilo tho old combine were busy. Thoy held meetings, endeavored to induce some of the newly elected members into their camp, and even went 8o far as to offer the latter inducements to strengthen the vhich had been strongly formed. w men held, however, that thoy had not been elected as ringsters, that ' the been chosen us non-partisans, and that as non-partisans they proposed to act, AV the adjourned meeting Thursday night a complete reorganization of the committees was effected. The attempt to bring about this chango creatod a hot discussion and stubborn resistance on the part of the old faction. The result,however,shows conclusively thata new order of things'will hereafter prevail in the school board. A leading member of the board was seen and questioned about the com- plexion of the new committecs and_the change they would bring about in the affairs of the school board. He said “The reports published in the worning papers dou’t do our side of the question jus- tice, and 1 want it explained. *Tho public has been clamoring for this very change for a long time. Heretofore, all the work and all the glory have been in the hands of a fow men. Noiv, just consult that list of committees and see if anyone has been snubbed. Each one of the foutteen members is chairman of some committoe and each name appears somewhere on four committees. AlL this talk about a combine with democrats is bosh. Politics cut no figure atall. I don't know anything about Mr, Clarke’s statoment as to being asked to depose Coburn. e and text books wero too much for one committee so it was divided, and Coburn is chairman of the lat- ter named. ““The whole trouble is the ring is broken and the people have what they asked for. There were threo kickers, Clarke, Sholes and McConnell. Clarke was disgruntied be- cause helost the presidency; Shoies, because he did not get_the committeo on buildings, and McConnell, bocause he was taken off the committee on_cluims. Now, he has had that position for a long timo and when the report comes from the comp- troller's ofice you will sec that business was done in a very slipshod manner, An_immense amount, of money is od on by this committee and Mr. McConnell was very loose in his methods. “"The books of the secretary are how being checked up and I am told that there are or- ders and vouchers which have never been O K'd by any one. “There are other rather serious discrep- ancies which will be reported to the council and board when the peoplo may judge for themselves whether or uot a change of com- mitteemen was desirable. *'I consider that the pledges implied in my election on the non-partisan ticket are re- deemed and hereafter two or three men won't be able to run the board.” Mr. Kelly—1 haven't. much to say. Somo people are in the soup. The public will be satistied, however, and the work is pretty evenly divided. Politics has no business tho affair at all. Mr. Sholes makes some charges. The trouble with him is he would have given his shirt to have been appointed chairman of the committee on buildings. He told me he wanted it. ‘The combins was all on the other side. They anticipated that the ring was going to be broken and they were around yesterday hunting votes to suve it. ‘Phey didn’t get thowm and they are hot. Mr. Rees—Oh, I could say two or three things if I wanted to, but T don't. I can't go into the Coburn question. Everybody undex- stands that. The object of the new move was to put each member at work. We dou’t want two or three men to run the board. The new committees we created were necossary. 1 don't sce how you are to know where to orect a school building if there is no committee on boundaries, and J don’t think auy man should have authority to expel a child from school. The committee o sul- ‘aries and disciplino will remedy that. The last election turned on this very voint, and we have redecmed ourselyes, I didn't notice till my attention was called ol il e ing, that there were democrats on the mo important committoes, and it would have made no difference if I'had. The other side fixed up their slate and we beat them. Dr. Spaulding--The ventilation committee 1 consider the most important in the wh list, and it should have experienced m Felton, it is understood, is about to which will leave me on this board assoc with an_inexperienced man. On those grounds I refused 1o serve. Sherift Coburn—I was' not at the meet- ing, therefore can't give an opiion for publication. It looks, however, as though the board was bound to be dragged into a political squubble. I have heard, for several days, that & combination was formed to put democratic members at the head of all com- mittees, but kuew nothing about it. The Board's Accounts, Comptroller Goodrich was seen in refer- ence to tho reported slipshod wmethods of keeping the books of the board of education, and 1n reply to a question said that it would require upwards of ten or fiftecn days to complete the auditing, and, until that ume, ho could make no statemont. ‘The conversation of the people in the ofiice, howevor, uuplied_that considerable irregu- larity was being discovered, Notwithstanding the wability of the comp- troller to shed light on the subject, it has been current in the city for some diys past that the secretary of tho board of education has been keepung his books, to say the least, in an original manuer, Iv1s alleged that he keops no ledger, and that its substitute is & memorandum which shows entries in a style that are far from being satisiactory to & com- petent accountant. It is also stated that somo time ago the sec- retary uudertook to keep a ledger, but aban- doned it for reasons of his own. The Vaule Balcony. It 18 understood that Commissioner O'Keeffe will revive the vault controversy at to-day's meeting of the board. J. H. Cranes, an expert, employed by O'IKeeffe, has been at work seyeral days takiog moas- urements of tho balcony, and will o comploted by to-morrow, an itemized report of what the balcony should cost. The board paid $1,500 for it. Mr, Cranes’ estimate will be about §300. He takes into account every screw, bolt and bar at contract prices, and says the job, at $500, would leave a largo profit.

A Chicago Merchant Arrested Omaha for Deserting His Wife. George C. Hagen, a wealthy boot and shoe dealer doing business at Chicago and at New Castle, Pa., was arrested yesterday, charged with being & fugitive from justice. It is anothor case of an uncon- genial wife and a pretty typewriter. ‘The arrest was caused on a telegram from tho chicf of police of Milwaukee, stat- ing that Hagen had eloped, deserting his wife and taking a lot of her jewelry. Hagen and his typewriter, 4 handsome young wirl, about eighteen years of age, named Rachel Vaghn, arrived Omaha Wednes- day ‘evening, and stopped at the cheap lodging house on Farnam strect where they were registered as **Mr. Adams ana wife.” They remained in the place until noon yesterday, when 1lagen ventured out to call “upon a' friend of s to secu identification to enable him cashed a draft for $1,200, wh purchused at the Chicago Natioual bank.

A new band stand is to be erected and out- side of the circle of soven trecs ubout that structure is to bo a promenade twenty-two feet wide. The plats ou which the trees will stand will be slightly elevated above the walks, but there will be o curbing to them.
