‘/_' " 4 | | THE NEW TERM OF COURT, It Opens With a Breoze and Soms Interesting Declsions. IMPROVEMENTS NEAR THE PARK. Judgo Clarkson Grants a Temporary Injunction Restraining the Col- leotion of Taxes for Them— The New Jury. Opening Day. Sheriff Boyd utterea a very feeble ‘‘Hear yez, hear yez" at the opening of the February torm of the district court yesterday morning. He had been practicing in a vacant room during vacation, and the pitch of his voice which he bad decided to use did pot meet the requiroments of a crowded room. A call of the roll of the 330 attorneys at the bar would have shown but few ab- sentes. They spent the hour before the ar. rival of the judges in greetngs not unlike indulged in by college students aftera wmor vacation, leaving the 1m sion upon an observer that attor 8 nover meot except in the court house. City Attorney Poppleton occupied a front seat and good-naturedly submitted to the badinage of Judge Savage and Judge Bald- win, who warmly congratulated him upon his possession of a meavs,recentiy acquired, of muking a livlibood. Judgo Baldwin had his fect wrapped around several chairs in the jury box and juat cornmenced unloading a few chapters of ancient court history and the odor of a vile cigar when the four judges entered and court was formally opened. Judge Doane announced the selection by the judges of the following bailiffs: Louis Grebe, Pat Quillan, John Norberg wnd Henry Hunt. . Judge Clarkson announced that the court had formulated a number of new rules and changes of the old ones which would be pub- lis! ed hereafter and posted in the district elerk's office. Among the changes, all of ‘which are caloulated to expedite the transac- tion of business, are the following: Instead of calling the list of trial cases each day 1n the main court rootn, each judge will have the cases which will come before him for the term, desiguated at the begin- ning of the term. ‘The list of trial cases for each day will be posted on a blackboard in the clork’s office. Each judge will have a pasteboard slip in his room giving the number of the case on trial and indicating whether another case will probably be reached on that day. Attorneys will not be allowed to file plead- ings out of time except for cause shown in writing. Judwe Clarkson will hear ex-parte motions on Monday and Wednesday during the noon hour and At no other time except on regular motion days. Mr. Offutt evoked a eriticism from Judge ‘Wakeley by caliing attention to the fact that a temporary injuoction had been issued by oue judge in favor of the South Omaha stock yards compuny against the South Omaha National bank, and by another judge in favor of the bank against the stock yaras company. “Why did you bring it to mo then after Judge Clarkson had issued an injuunction against the other party, usked Judge Wakeley. I did not goto Judge Clarkson, your honor,” replied Mr. Oftutt, *I got my order from you.” “Then your adversary had no right to go o Judge Clarkson,” replied Judge Wakeley. ‘It comes very near contempt when an at- torpey comes to one judge and secares an or- @ér that conflicts with that issued by any other judge. 1f thesecond order had been issued by myself under such circumstances, I would dismiss it on my own motion,” ‘The cases were taken out of court and set- tled by stipulation. “T'h rest of the day was taken up in hear- ex parte motions. i udge Doane sustained a motion to strike out certain nvu of the petition in the suit of Brennan bfothers against the city for pay for work on the old city hall foundation. The petitioners presented a very elaborate showiag of the fact that the council had been notified of the assignment of the con- tract of Regan brothers w the petitioners and also that it bad agreed to the assign- ment. Judge Doane hela that the simple slatement that the council had agreed to the assignment was sufficient and so struck out the parts of the petition showing the steps taken to securo this action of the council. "The petition also contained & covy of the protest of Brennan brothers to the council against the award of appraisers appointed to estimate the value of the work done. This ‘was limited by the court to a simple state- ment of the contractor's refusal to abide by the appraisement. . Judge Clarkson will hear the oriminal causes this term, The first c: @@ to be taken up will be that against James Quinn, charged with having forged a check on “The Two Orphans' clothing house. Quinn was tried on @ similar case a year ago and was acquitted, The case will botried on Wednes- day evening. - i On Thursday the state case against Will- fam Feagins will be catled for vrial.

Judge Clarkson rendered adecision yester- duy morning In the case of Jumes McGeatn aud twenty other frée-holders who appliea for an injunction restraing the city from the collection of & tex levied for the paymeat of the cost of 1mproving the streots surround- ing Hauscon park. The application was bused on the ground that the city, in sccep- ting the donation of the park, agreed to im- prove the avenues aud strects surrounding the park and to keep them in good repair. On Ahis ground the property owners claimed that they were uot in any wise Ifable for the cost and expense of any unprovements the city might make on these streets and ave- nues. Iu answer City Attorney Poppleton denies that the levy for improviag e streets was uuauthorized or illegal or that it was & vio. Tation of the tarms of the original conve auce of the property to the city by the or: inul grantors, Judge Clarkson grauted the tomporary in- Juoction. He based his decision uvon the Sbowiug made In the application that in the origwal deed of the property to the city it Was provided that the stroets should be im- proved at the city's expense. The wording ©f the deed on this point is as follows: *“Tuat said strip of land sball be forever in| used as a public street or highway ; that said city of Omaha shali lay out and improve said wtreet or highwav and shall forever after keep the same in good order and repair At the expense of said city of Omaha.” 1f the injunction is made permanent and the decision stands the test of the suvreme court, it will bring the city v for the pay ment of a large sum of money for the im-~ provementa that have already been made. The city has already paid about $15,000 for the paving of the streets around the park and & much larger sum hns been expended on the streets for paviog and curbing as shown by the following figures.

Burrus was taken from jail to the office of tho United States marshal, where tne paper was signed, after which he was again relogated to confinement to await aevelop- ments. Late in the afternoon Attorney Lambertson left for Washington to present the case to tne consideration of supreme court of the Unitod Stat THE 1 BOARD, A Few More Saloon Men Made Bappy Yesterday. The license board resumed work yesterday afternoon, starting out with granting licenses to Albert Rothery, 711 North Sixteenth street, and P. F. Andreeson, 1520 Doage strect. In the line of hearing protests the board took up the case of Ghrist Bullhenheimer, northwest corner of Sixteenth and Mander- son streets. Protests acainst this place charged that it was a very tough place, & re- sort for hoodlums, and was objected to by all the property owters up there, The case was taken under consideration, as was that of Charles Walker, 2630 Sherman avenue. Walker asked for a license to run at the same place where his father-in-law had been re- fused a hicense. J. Phipps Roe came forward and gave notice that the remonstrants against Adolph Forster running a saloon at 1201 South tileventh street would appeal from the decision of the board, which granted Forster a licease, to the district court. This, Secretary Smith announced, would close up the saloon until the court decided the matter. Henry Hornberger was ocalled to the front next. For some queer reason the faces of the members of the board broke up into very big smiles as Henry squeezed down into a broad-gauge chair und exclaimed, “Well!” “Well,” returned Mr. Gilbert, his smile growing broader, “Mr. Hornberger, what do you want?” “What do I want?' gueried Henry; *I thought you wanted something.” “Iact is, we did,” continued Mr. Gilbert. ‘‘We hear that you're fixing to runa gam- bling establishment up over your place. How is that!” *“You hear lots of things in Omahu just now,” replied Mr. Hornberger, “but any one that says 'm going to have gambling up over my place doesn’t know what he's talking about!” Then came more queer smiling around the table, aud after & lengthy silence, which seemed to bafile ex- planation, but which at the same time was significant of something or other, Heary was told, “‘fhat 1s all,” and he stepped aside. In executive session a license was geantod to C. C. Conners, the Full Dress, rear of 1512 Douglas street. A license was 0 granted to Heary Horuberger. ——— O'er roses may your foot steps move, Your smiles be ever smiles of love, Your tears be tears of jov, Your pbysic St. Patrick’s Pills, CHANGE AND ANNEXATION.

She could not sleep but coughed almost in+ cessantly. I was induced by a friend to try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and was astonished at the immediate relief it gave her and the cure it pro- duced. 1 have tried many other reme- dies for coughs and colds, but this artr- cle is superior to any of them, J.

Jim Stephenson has just roturned from Washington, and the opinions he entertains of the danger to mail routes in this section of the country for she next four years are too aeep for utterance. He was a biddor for 8 number of the star routes, but found that while he had put 1 figures at which he could secure only a bare profit, he was knocked out by several whose bids were actually below living prices. There were a couple of men down there," he said, ‘‘who have secured coutracts for 600, 800 or 1,000 routes, and they dou't know @ blessed thing about the business. If they did they wouldu’t bid down as they have to figures at which they can scarcely make ex- penses.’ “*Dia you secure any contracts!" “Naw. [ dido't get nearer toone than second place.. and in & number of jnstances 1 got ouly so far as third. I tell you they dida't know what they were bidding upon.

Since thew, however, amount of service has almost doubled and the old figures no longer represent the amouut of work done.” R Mauny persons who have had the influ- enza during the recent epidemic now find themselves aflicted with a terrible cough, Mrs, A.J.

ONE FOR, THE OTHER AGAINST, Rival Banks Compromise Their Dif- ferences Over the Room in the Exchange Building—A Quarrel in a Colored Household. Opinions on Anhexation, *1 am in favor of annexation and if the Question is submitted will work to help carry it,'’ said W. W. Lyon, an owner of cousiderable South Omuha property. “There are various reasor why South Omaha would be the gainer. In the first piace it would be an economical measure, because we would save the expense of maintaining a separate city government. The salaries of mayor, aidermen, city engineer, city clerk and all the other necessary officials of a municipality could be lopped off. The carrying on of public improvements would be better performed bocause we would have the advantage of more competent men in the engineering and other departments. Omaha's vity engineer 18 a high salaried of- ficor, but South Omaha caunot afford to pay the salary of a first-class mau. Costly mis- takes can be avoided by competent men when public improvements are_inaugurated. Omaba's credit is good, while South Omaha is nearly at the end of her rove. With the two cities turned into one great municipality public improvements could be pushed with a far greater degree of certanty of being paid for than South Omaba's separate and impaired credit will Ruarantee now. Iam in favor of annex- ation, and you will find plenty of South Omaba property owners and taxpayers who are in the same boat with me if you will only investigate it." “I will oppose annexation at the present time,” sald Councilman _slelcher. “Omaha might it us just as Chicago is treating the Town of Liake since she has acquired her population and territory. The Town of Lako is sick of the change now that she has been deprived of her own Rgovernment. Annex South Omaha to Omaha and what representation do we have in the city gov- ernment! The only officer we would be sure Dall‘l one ward councilman. We now have eight aldermen in our aty coun- cil to look after the city's interests. South Omaha wouldu't have enough influence:n Omaha's city council with her one, or perhaps two, councilmen, to get any more than just what North Omaha wanted to give her. We had better wait until we reach a more influential position and then we can command more as the price of an- nexation." arfare at_an End.

So many matters keep coming up almost overy day on which the charmaun hesitates to pass, Counsequently, he calls the a8s0+~ oiation together. This takos a delegation from Omaha, and, in addition to the time cousumed in responce to the call, many valuable hours are lost every weok traveling back and forth. Moaroe and Cros- by of the Union Pacific and Burlington bave now gone to a meeting of the western and northwestern divisions of the Western freight association at which there are seven- ty-four important subjects docketed for con- sideration. Among them may be mentioned the differentials on lumver from Minnesota and Wiscousin to Missouri river points; rates on lumber to the Missour: river des- tined to points further west, and the action of the northwestern roads in establishing a rate of $1.45 on dressed beef from the Mis- souri river to Montana points to meet similar rates put into effect by the Union Pacific. This lumbor-rate question is quite important 0 Omaha, Especially in view of the fact that the Com- mercial association is now considering that ject and urging upon the roads the ne- cossity of making a reduction. The Chicago roaas are becoming terribly excited over that reduced rate on Nebraska business by way of St. Paul to and from Boston, They claim that there can be no doubt that this action on the part of the St. Paul & Omaha and the Sioux City & Northern will lead to a general reduction in_rates on the same articles from the Missouri river 1o Chi- cago. As the St. Pau! & Omaha has an exclusive tariff agreement with the Union Pacific via Sioux City, the cut rates extend to all pomts west of the Mis- souri river reached by the Union Paclfic, aud consequently all the Missouri river rouds are affected by the cut via St. Paul. If they do not meet those rates tho bulk of the western traffic will be diverted via St. Paul and the Canadian Pacific, and it is hardly probable that they will allow this to be done. 'The Illinois Central, which has a direct line from Chicago to Sioux City, is more seriously affected by the Sioux City cut than any of the other roads, and it wiil no doubt shortly announce cor: onding re- ductions petweon Sioux City a¥¥ Chicago. Bob Baxter, assistant superlntendent of the Wyoming division, and J. E. McCarty, trainmaster at Pocatello, have arrived to help get out the Union Pacific's new tune- table, which will go into effect March 2. As the tigures have neither been made up nor agreed upov as_ yet, anything said regarding proposed changes or improve- ments can be nothing more than mere guoss work. The management has been taking all sleeping cars oft the fast mail and subs tuting un entirely new passenger train on the forty-miles an nour schedule, but this question has not been definitely settled. Travel on tne fast mail has been so heavy that with three Pujlmans alway ing car, it has been found if on several occasions to make lost time and reach destination on tim consequence, the government is complaining and threatens to increase the fine of $100, when thus train fails to make its connections promptly. 1f this change is made. the pas- senger will leave here four or five hours ahoad of the fast mail and reach Green River before the latter overtakes it. From there to Portland and Ogden they can be consolidated. The meeting in this city today of the passengor department of the Trans-Missouri association promises to be unusually inters esting. A larze aelegation from Kansas will be present to urge upon the associution such action as will advertiso that sate abroad and briug emigration into the state, Harvest excursion rates for 1850 will be one of the matters for_consideration, of which Kavsas a8 well as Nebraska will receive the beuefit. Division Superintendent Rathburn of the Missour: Pacific joined General Manager Clark and Attorney Waggoner here yesterday morning and will go with them on a tour over the road. S. H. H, Clark, of St. Louls, general man agor of the Missouri Paciflc road, arrived in Omaha Sunday evening. He 1 accompanied by Hou. B. P. Waggoner of Atchison, attor- ney in Nebraska and Kansas for this great system. The real object of Mr. Clark's visit here at this time could not be ascer- tained frgm him. He said wheu questioned regarding the possibility of his company ex- tending its line north from Omaha that the matter had not receutly been given any con- sideration, “and," contwued Mr. Clark, “I am not here to inaugurate uny movement looking to the promotion or consummation of such a schewe, I am fres to aamit, however, that the Ero ed Omaha-Dakota road ought to be uilt. It is what Omaha needs and there s 80 (doubt that sooner or later it will bo uilt,” The new differential of 53{ cents in rutes, between roads east aud west of the Missouri river, agreed upon two weeks ago at Chicago, ure c: Yacwd to o into effent today. This aifferential simply adjusts the through rate on stock, so that shippers out in Kansas and Nevrasks will have the same rate to Chicago, by way of Omaha, St. Joe and Kunsas City, " While Mr. Clark denies that his visit here hay any rofereuce to an extension northward of the Missouri Pucific road, certain parties interested in the Omaha-Yaukton schemo consulted with him about it yesterday. It is ucderstood also that shey offer such strong inducemants for Mr. Clari’'s corporation to interest itself that iv will surely build the proposed road. Childran Cry for Pitcher's Castoria.
