5 A CENTRAL MARKET HOUSE. The Bemefits it Confers On People of Othor Cities. B60OME EXCELLENT SAMPLES. Boston with Its Million Dollar Struo- tare, Baltimore, Cnarleston, New Orleans and Others Favor the Plan, A Liargo Market. A city market house, that is the question. Would it attract producers to the city to sell their goods or would it repel them! Would it furnish a revenue to the city, or entail a largo annual expenditure of money? ‘Would it be convenient, clean and attractive, or dirty, noisome aud become a nuisauce? These ate all questions neccessary for the citizens of Omaha to deliberately consider. On all of these subjects, inquiry has been made in cities throughout the couutry by parties who have faith in the benefit of such an enterprise, Local investigation has demonstrated that about nine-tonthe of the market wardeners are in favor of a market house, while a large majority of the citizens feel tho same way Councilman Wheeler has received most enthusiastic endorsements of the marke! house systen_from such cities ns , Boston, Baltimore, Charleston, New Orleans, San Francisco, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Joe, In Charleston they have a_central market, o covered building fully a auarter of u mile long with a handsome brick annex used by the market commissioners and for public meet- ings. 'The building is divided m 8 methodical manner into departments for poultry, game, meats, vegetables, fruit, country produce and fish and oysters, The city receives an mcome of about §15,000 with an expenditure of probably $2,500. In New Orleans there are seventeen pub- lio markets, They were brought into exist- ence by public demand. The city has at dif- fereut times granted permission chrough the council to several parties to erect and oper- ato private market houses under certain terms and conditions not conflicting with the con- tract of the public markets, The city re- serves police control of all markets and the enforcement of all ordinances pertaining to them is under the sunervision of this depart- ment. The city alsorents to the highest bidder. The present contract is for a term of three years, for something like §180,000 per annum. The lassee binds himself 1 pay into the city treasury on signing the contract a sum eqaal to one-thirty-sixth of his entire bid for the term of three ycars, He furnishes his notes of equal amounts, aggregating tho total amount of his bid, mads. payable to tho city of New Orleans on the 15th of each month preceding the month for which they are given, or fifteen or sixteen days in advance, tho said notes being endorsed to the satis faction of the mayor and the committee on finance. The lessee of the maurkets binds on accepting the contract to make all necessary repairs and whitewash and painy the markots every two years, the work 1o be done under the superyision of the com- missioner of police and public buildings. The lessee shall not sell, transfer, or assign his right, title or interest in same, without having previously obtained the consent of the eity council. The consumers of New Orleans, such as hotels, restauraats, otc., consider the mar- kets the best source of supply, and general- ly patronize them in preference to dealing elsewhere. 'Ihe people of New Orleans consider the public markets a source of in- calculable benefit, as they have beoen effec- tual in concentrating business in convenient localities,where both producer and consumer can transact business without detriment to their pecuniary interests. The city of Washington has one of the * finest, if not the finest, market buildings in the country, built at mu expense of over £500,000, with complete farmers' murket, meat, fish and fruit markets, shops, restaur- ant und coal-storage house. It covers a space of two and a-half acres in the center of the city, upon its finest aveaue, and yot so beautiful 1s its proportions and surroundings that a stranger would not take it for a mar- ket without entering its precincls. Its rov- enuc is about $65,000, and expenditure $i 000, including taxes, interest, ete. This market is owned and managed by o corporation. There are @iso three public markets - owned by the city, the revenue from which is about 8,000, and the cost of maintaining them not over $1,500. The city of Baltimore hus twelve markot bouses, giving tha city a rey- enue of $65,000, at an aunual cost of $5,000. Philadetphia is also celebrated for its mar- ket houscs, and 80 1s Boston, I[n Philadel- phia the markets are celebrated for vieir ex~ cellent management. They are owned and controlled by the city, and bring a revenue of upwards of $50,000, with an expenditura of probably $10,000 for salaries, repairs and improvements. In Boston, the cit- izens take the greatest pride in their markets, and the Quincy market is one of the most remarkable monuments of municipal enterpriso that can be shown any- where in the world. ‘T'he estimated value of this market is $1,000,000, and the city veceives an income from the same of $71,000. It also roceives a rental of £19,000 per annum from the Faneuil hall market. Under a somewhat loose system of man- agement the city of Buffalo manages to do- rive a net incowo of something over $4,000 from her markets, while Cleveland realizes 16 per cent upon the present value of her murkots; Detroit 10 per cent, while Colum- bus and other ivterior cities anywhere from 20 o 2b per cent., ‘Thcse instances of profitable management of city markets might be multipliea on in- definitely ~ from the statistics and anformation in possession of Mr. Whecler, but engugh has been given to show conclus- ively thut u well conducted city market not only invites and increases the city's trade, but is & most profitable enterpriso in itself, Pho exposition building spoken of in con- nection with pubhic markets for Omaha, 18 centrally locuted and with the expenditure of a comparatively small sum will be made a first class market bouse.

The little steamer Capitola Butt, wkich since the middle of August, has been steam- ing up and down thé river with government barges employed in the riprapping work & fow miles up the east bank of the river, made 1ts final vrip of the season yesterday. A party consisting of President Stewarr, of the motor line, with his son, Manager Reyoolds, of the same compavy, Lieus tenant Chittenden, Fugineer * Tower, Mr. Schermerhorn of-the Union Pacific aud Superintendent Potter and Engineer Ross in charge of the work constituted the passen- gers on the final trip, The day, though rather onilly, was almost perfect. ‘I'he light mist whic bung over the spires and dowes of the twin cities gradually lifted and the sun touched atl the landscape with beauty. Promptly at 10 o'clock the lines were cast off at the foot of Douglas strees avd the steamer ploughed her way through the river's €ccentric chanuvel o the site of the work, About half & mile ubove the wagon bridge 8 party of surveyors for the new bridge cow- pany were at work and a little further on round the bend was passed the pumpin station of the Council Bluffs waterwork: About five miles above the city, at the initial powt of the riprapping, the boat swuug round for the return trip and Superintendent Potter explaived to his guests the work thav had been done. Beven thousand seven hundred and sixty foet of the bank are covered with a bank of ‘white stone for & distance of thirty-five feet back from the water's edge. Along the low weater mark at sbort iutervals are the tops of the viles whichb bave been sunk to A depth of seventeen or eighteen feet, and to which is anchored the mattrass of woven branchos and galvanized fron cable. This mattress is sixty foet wide, And is held in place at the botlom of the river by a layer of broken rock, and forms a perfect _protection sgawst the action o1 water. Tho work I8 pronounced by the vi itors, all of whom have had experience in similar undertakings, the best they had pver seen, On the return journey a landing was made at the winter quarters, avout four miles above the wagon bridge, Six acres of perfectly lovel land has becn leased and tho thirty-five huge barges with the pon- derous pumping, dredging and pile driving machinery are ranged along the bank withas miuich neatness as the papers of a government ofice. Mr. Potter took his friends through all the different departmonts, carefully ex- plainiag the actails of the work during their progross, The quarter boats with their long lines of sleeping berths, the hugo sand pump boats, the w house with watch- men’s quarters were also visitod and excited the liveliest interesi. As sthe boat neared tho city about noon the view was most im- pressiveand excited the onthusiastic admira tion of the spectators. Dense white columns poured upward from a thousand chimnios and the massive masonry of the lower part of tho city, with the dalicate proportions of the high school and court house in the di tauce, remindedone of an old world sea po California, the Land of Discover Why will you lay awake all night, cough- ing, when that most_offoctive and agroeable Califo rnin remedy, Santa Abie, will give you imm ediato rolieil SANTA ABIE is the only guarantoed cure for consumption, nsthma and all_bronchial complaints, Sold only in largo botties, at §1.

The somewhat moldy Goldsmith investi- gation, with its complement of defunct ani- mals, was resumed yosterday morning after a weck's postponement. Several witnesses were introduced whose tostimony, in the main, was devoted to the contradiction of Lazarus’ statements. Mr. Thomas Swobe was called. He tosti- fled that Goldsmith had taken away a dead dog for him and he offered to pay him for 1t. Goldsmith refused to take the money, saying that the city paid bim for that worlk. John Turnbull was the next witness, The testimony of Lazarus was read to him, wherein the latter asserted that, while with Goldsmith and the witness on Cut-Of lake, the earbage master hinted that Lazarus was under_obligation to him for his appointment as garbage collector,and that he might repay this fuvor under certain circumstances. Turnbull declared that no such conversa- tion had taken place in his presence. Mr. Albright, the dump-master at the foot of Jones street, testified that from May 25 to September 26 the Jones streot dump was closed. He denied that he ever met Lazarus on Farnam street and gave bim credit for six horses which he had not seen dumped into tho river. He nover gave credit to anybody for dead animals uniess he'saw the animals dumped into the river himeelf. Animals brought during the noon hour had to he on the bank till his arrival. The first. check book he ever had was given to him by Goldsmith in October, 1838, Daniel E. Robertson testified that he had been in the employ of Goldsmiih since June, 1888, Whenever he brought animals to tho river he would not throw them in unloss the dump-master was there. If the dead borse or cow was paid for by private individuals,he would inform the dump-master. Witness never received any checks for the animals hauled, Mr. Brady, the dump-master, at the foot of Davenportstroot,testitied that he had held his present position since June, 1887. He denied the assertion made by Lazarus concerning that of crediting dogs not dumped into the river. Wirness' first checl was given April 21, 1888, He never gave check for dead api- mals unless he saw them before they were thrown in the river. 1f any were brought during his absence they hud to romain on the dump until his return. One dny Luzarus threw a dog intd the river. That was the only animal he had ever brought in the day time. Lazarus wanted a check for the dog, admitting that hoe had already been paid for it by the owner of the animal. Witness told him thut if he had been paid once, that ought to bo sufficient, Touis Goldsmith, son of the garbage mas- ter, was the next witness. He tostified that he had been asmistant to his father for a year, Henever told Lazarus that he had received credit for four dogs that he bad not | thrown in the river. He never threw ani- wals in the river unless the dump-master was prosent. In rogard to the assertions of Dr. Slominski that voth he and his landlord were charged for removing _the same garbge. Goldsmith assorted that it was the faull of the driver of the wagous and that neither he nor his father knew of this extortion. Louis Goldsmith, sr., garbage master, then tostified in nis own bohalf, He refuted Lazarus’ statements in toto. He denied hay- ing any conversation with Lazarus on Cut-Off island concerning the garbage business or the appointment of the latter. The witness gave him $2 per night for cleaning cess-pools and hauling garbage. Witness had the exclusive right of hauling dead ani- mals. Never gave Lazarus permission to baul dead animals. He denied the alleged conversation with Albright and Lazarus in the rubber store in which it was said credit was given for five horses that had aolready been paid for prvate indiviauals. Witness never received douole pay for hauling any dead animals. When Slominski came to wit- ness complaining that garbage had not been removed but had been paid for, the latter looked in his ledeer but did not find Slomin- ski oredited. He therefore sent a garbage collector to the place and gave him orders Lo collect money for the garbage when it was removed. not knowing ut the time that the agent, Aneman, had puid for it. When in- formed of the facts he made a reduction for it. Witness has never recewved pay for re- moving o dead horse belonging to Mayor Broatch. Thomas W. Price was called on the behalf of the prosccution, and testified that at one time he paid $2.50 to Lazarus for removing & dead horse. Mr. Dayis asked him when it was that he had paid 85 for the removal of the animal. Mr. Snyder objected to the question, say- ing that it was unfair, Mr. Davis clmmed he had a right to ask any auestion he chose, asthe rules governing 8 court did not hold good with that commit- tee. Ho ngain put the question, but the wit- ness replied that he had not paid ivat any tune, Adjournment was then taken until 2 p. m, Up to 8 p. m. the investigating committee had faled to put in an appearance, and 1t was supposed that the members had deter- mined to let the case rest there. e Do not *“‘throw up the sponge.” Try the old standard remedy, Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup Prigo 25 cents, Thighly recommend Salvation Oil: it has done more for my wife in one night than pliysicians have accomplished in_yeurs. FreEbp A SCHULZE, 612 Fayettd strect, Baltimore, Md. A BTRANGER'S VIEWS, He Thinks the Oity Can Afford to Aid the Union Depot Propositions, Owmana, Nov. 25,—To the Editor of Tus Bee: That Omeha needs a depot building that will advertise her to tho world at large as the city she really is, no one can for a second deny, and 1t will, I think, be asseuted to by all, that in addition to the tracks of the Union Pacific and Burlington rail being as dangerous as any io the country,the depots themselves are fitted to give the worst possible impression to a stranger. The bet- ter portiou of the city is unfortunately away from these depots, and 1o a stranger going east or west, not only is there mothing to recommend Omaha, but the miserable build- ings he seos on his way through, give him & worse opiuion of the place than he would have had if be had npver sceu it at all. Now, the Union Pacific, say what one will, is the most divect routs from Chicago to Sau Fran- , sud from its central location probably ways will get the greater shave of the bus- iness truvel betwoen these poiots. Uts bridge is & fix ture, 1ts intorests are locatad near i and nothing Owaha can do will, so far as cop see, in the least chauge it or the Bur- lington's determivation w0 run in aud out of the city over thelr present lines. 1t Is not necessary for them to make any change, and unless they aro met balfl way may sec fit to continue carrying through the half built, uninteresting portion of the city the stream of travel, which advortises Omaha as bohind the times and non-pro- grossive as compared with Denvor and a dozen other rival western towns, If one would be convinced how much a stranger is impressed by uppoarances on entering and leaving a city, let him ride and talk with strangers about Omaha, If instoad of the presont Union Preifio and Burlington depot thoro was a fine union depot with a hand- some viaduct leading to the business portion of the city, not only would Omaha gain vis- itors by the score who now pass by in silenc but the paltry sum of §150,000 subscribed her world net ner 10,000 per cent fn the way of roturn i the next ten years by circolat. ing good reports of her morits as a city and by attracting money and peoplo to her. If where is any one thing Oraba is in need of, it 18 n fine depot to convey an impression of what she is. To get such a depot almost any outlay would be a very cheap investment for a city such as Omaha. It has been a failing of this city that it thinks it can forge ahead by being passive and not making any effort. Citizens talk of Omalia's sicuation, of her surrounding coun. try, of her location between Chicagzo and Denver, and of her many other advautages for growth, und then sit back listiess in their oftices and lower and raise the price of corner lots, exclaiming: “It's bound to come!” “1Vs sureto grow!" As if merely raising corner [ots « peg or two would Lring expan- sion, New growth will probably come, it must to any city of this size, but such a growth as ought to come, most surely never will in fifty years unless the people act, and glve up sitting still and wlking of future greatness. Just think how Denver's grown of ate, how Kansas City's gone ahead in five years past, how Lincoin, Sioux City and all theso smaller cities get L. one_its growth by advertising what thoy have. No one w looks about can fail to see that Omuha could huve had a ood deal of each of these added to itself if only it had been awake. When one thinks what it might have got, particu- larly from Deuver, the result of inuc tvity is most apparent. Denver is now as large us Omana, and a_most formidable competitor. If Omaha had centralized the Towa rouds in aunion depot five years ago, it might have had some of the roads to Denver which have since been built through Kansas City and St. Joseph. Omaha has wanted a union depot for years and uow has a chance to got one. I under- stand the railvoad people have provided for s handsome structure, worthy in every way of tho city, and have agreed to have matters adjusted with other roads so asto make Omaba & veritable center. The money to go into the building is cash from the railroad pocket. A dopot is to all intents a public building. To be sure it helps a railroad to some extent, but it helps a town or city more,and 1s virta- ally as much dedicated to a town or city as are tho streets and alleys in a platted pieve of ground, Somehow there secins to be an impression among people thut the railroad companies ought to do this, or thator some otber thing for them, and this jmpression finally grows into a feeliug that they have a right” to demand this or that thing. I can't see why any railroad company or corporation of any kind should expend in putting up extra expensive build- ings or doing other gratuitous things for the public uniess it wants to. I can't see why a Tailrond company or any other business is run for any other purpose thau to muke money for those who have invested in it. Business is business, not sentiment, but if o corporation sees fit to put aside a large sum of money to make a monument for Omaha, when it coula save its money, I can't se it isn’t entitled to credit and not abus The Union Pacific has before shown its de- sive to help the country by the erection of depots at Cheyenne and Owden, which arc far more costly than the cities had reason to expoct they would be. The viaduct, of which one liears so much, is but tho smaller portion of the whole, but one would thini from reading cortain paners that Omaha, by the voting of the vonds, was building the en- tire thing. It certainly would have been more satis- factory if no bonus had peen asked. Noone disputes that. But give what credit there due even to & corporation. 1f, after the rangements have been completed of this buildiog and viaduct, ana the railroad peoplo have shown themselves willing to enter into a businesslike, binding contract, the vity re- fuses to accept tho thing it most of all needs because throughout the couutry there isa feeling agawst corporations as a whole, I think it will most riculy deserve to lose the growth it might receive. The expendituro of the money will not be felt, Thelack of such a monument most surely will be. AN UNPREJUDICED STRANGER. Tor Sleeplessness Use Horsford’s Acia ILosphate. Dr. C. R.

Sho Figures n kKeed's Objection to the Recent Appraisal. The complaints of Byron Reed against the appraisaments of his and the Folsom lots in the proposed site of the postofilce were called oy Judge Dundy yesterday. J. M. Wootworth and A. J. Poppleton, ap- peared as counsel for Mr. Reed, District Attorney Pritchett offered the afidavits of himself and William F. Bechel to show that the appraisers showed no par- tiality or discrimination in making their awards, as charged; also, the aMidavit of Henry Estabrook in refutation of the state- ment that he was disqualiticd on the alleged grounds of not being a free-holder. Theso matters, however, cut a very small figure. 'The defects in-the commissioners’ Teport, making the date of hearing July 25 instead of August 27, 1n the cases of M Cleveland and Beojamin Folsom, who were advertised, were the points raised. On these, the court gave Mr, Pritchett time to have the report amended, and con- tinued the hearing until that could be done. Mr. Woolworth further called atte tion to the fact ibat, after a very careful search, no such person a8 Frances C. Cleveland, named in the information, had been found. ‘The United States marshal for Now York made bis return with a report to that eftect written across the back of the advertised no- tice stating that Mrs. Grover Cleveland was the only lady he had auy knowledge of who possessed nu interest in the property de- soribed.

Much of the success of Tammany Hall under the leadership of Richard Croker is, without a doubt, due to the fact that young men of ability, tact and energy have been putin the front of the organ- ization, says the Philadelphia Ledger, Chamberlain Croker is himself under fity years of age, A ty-four or thitly-five years Bourke Cockran 18 About the same age, Corporation Courfsel Clark 1s still in his tharties GilroyHd the two Martins, heads of importat departments of the municipal governtifnt, have not passed their early prime.

Sonator Ives and Cantor, Tammany representatives at Albany, are both young men, Crokor appoars to have tho faculty of drawing around him men who have youth aswell as ability on their side. The other dny Mayor Grant, doubtless after consulting with Mr. Crok appointed an abie young journalist, W. J. Kenney su- pervisor of the city records, and George B. McClellan, the bright son of the general of the same name,and only twenty-six yenrs old, as auditor of the Brooklyn bridge. Tammany hall today is not the same organization that it was twonty years ago. The old leaders have died or passed out of the hall, and new men are in control. Nothing now, it would seem, but an absolnte failure to administer the municipal government honestly and on right principles can dislodge this powerful organiz from power. RESTORED HER HEALTH.
