THE OMAHA DATI A TRIAL REACHED AT LAST. The Viaduot Bond Injunction Case Being Heard by Judge Doane, “THE CITY HAS ACTED IN GOOD FAITH.” Bo Says Mr. Poppleton—Mr, Thurs- ton Reviews th Situation at Length—Mr. Howe's Po- sition—Other News, Judge Doane yesterday morning commenced the hearing of the much discussed case of Btuht and Howe vs the city, to restrain the gum- from {ssuing and delivering to the nion depot company $150,000 of coupon bonds for the construction of a union depot. The reading of plaintiff's petition occupied nearly an hour, “So far as the city’s answer is concernoed,” sald Mr. Poppleton, I do not know that it is necessary toread it. The only denial of ma- terial substance that we make is that there Was no attempt at conspiracy on the pars of the e The city's understanding of this contractis that these bonds are detiv- erablo 10 Kountze Brothors’ bank at any time. The great point in the cuse is the delivery of the bonds, The city has acted in good faith in this matter all along, and if there hias been apything illogal itis for the plaintifts to find and show it.” Mr. Thurston said: “As to the answer of the depot company, 1 had not expected to pacticipate In this case, depending, as 1 did, hat Mr. Green would attend to that, but ho had to leave the city Monday, and there is no one but me to stand here. The new plan for aunion depot provides for an expenditure of 0,000 more than the old ono, We deny that ho ' Union Pacific company has denicd to sny other railroad the right to enter this pro- sed depot. Prior to the completion of this epot there is no objection on the part either of the Union Pacific company or the depot company to make this wrant of permission, We st up that the depot company went abead g out its plansin good” faith, The company went aliend and purchased large amounts of real estate that are of no yalue to us except the obligations in question on the part of thocity bo kept. That is all that I care to say yet on the subject.” “A great deal'of what you havo said,” re- marked Mr. Howe, “'is chostuutty,” Mr. Thurston paid no attention to the com- ment, Mr. Howe proceeded to read afidavits of laintiffs. He commenced with a very engtaoy one made by himself, It contained nothing new and was given a verbal addenda of sarcastic peror directed toward Mr., Thurston. The authorizing s to deliver to the Union Pacific company, deeds to the depot, grounds, also all the procéedings connected with tho cond tion of property for vinduct purposes: aftidavits of J. D. T rerof the union depot com- pany, i ni D. Brown, treasurer of the Union Pacific railway company, were read. Nextcamo a reading of reports of speeches made vy Mr. Thurston and Mr. Holcomb vefore the real estate exchango July 12, 1880, being before the eloction at which the bonds were voted Mr. Thurston said that the report of his speech on that occasion would have made four columns if all he said had been printed. What Mr. Howe was about to read was, Mr. Thurston said, simply a newspaper synopsis. Mr. Howe informed the court that, the re- port was taken down at the time by Mr. ‘Thurston’s stenographer, “Then Mr. Thurston remarked that he sup- posed it was materially correct. ‘e newspaper report was then read, For the most part it was o sumptous setting forth of the grandness of the proposed now structure. In reading it Mr. Howe gave pe- cullar and insinuating emphasis here and there, with tho result of keeping his hearors, even among the defendants and associates in a moM of smiles most of the time. Mr. Howe called attention to the fact that the reports of the speeches were almost identically the same in both of the leaaing pa- vers inthe city. Then he read newspaper interviews on the subject with Mr, Thurston, and while doing 50 turned to the Union Pacific's general solicitor and asicod : ““John, ‘don’t this sound naturalf” “Yes," replied Mr. Thurston, *“tho re- porters’in_Omaha have a habit of reporting correctly what I say. “Ah, yes—I guess sol Queer fsn't it that they take so much pains with what you sav{ Own up now, Johm, that you have a hutle habit of writing your own interviews 1" Mr. Thurston’s reply was to giye Mr. Howe a very direct glan s Next Mr. Howe announced he would read ard that he put into adaily paper in reply to something Mr, Thurston had written. I object to his reading anything of that sort, "Mr. Thurston remarked to the court. ‘The’ court smiled and swung round in his chair. 0 don't be afraid to hearit John. It won't bo hard for you to tuke.” “I liko to seo people with nerve enough to sign their names to what they write. 1 al- ways do.” “Guess you do, John, but ain’t you sorry for it every now and then 7 Mr. Thurston again acted on the silenco is golden rule; the court didn't speak, and M. Howe wenton toread his card which, in a a word, proved to be a kick against the city giving the depot company £150,000, This fin- ished he read a very lengthy aMdavit mado by Mr. Stuht, wherein the latter states that the Union depot company is now in fact con- structing a depot building which is wbout 140x160, which dimensions are about ouly one half as large as these ibed in tho first plaus, adopted by the people, and are ra eally and totally different from those describ- ed ‘in the proposition adopted by the people. At this point the noon recess was talken. *Are you getting mostout of the brambles connected with this thing and nearing the deep forests?? asked Mr. Poppleton of Mr. Howe just before the court resumed business in the afternoon, “What your side calls brambles in this thing,” repliea Mr. Howe, “we cail monarchs of the forest.” Judge Doane then took his seat, and Mr. Howe stepped forward with a blue print drawing of the proposed depot as voted for by the people, and proceeded to sbow it to the judge. At sight of it Mr. Thurston also sten- ped forward with the remark: *“That doesn’t show nearly as much ground as is included in the structure now decided to be utilized by the company.” “Ob, that's all right,” sald Mr. Howe, “but this scoms to bea birdseye view from a considerablo distance high in the air— that's the only difference, John." And then the two attorneys at at it Mr. Thurston would pomt to s big door and M. Howe toa little one; Mr. Thurston to a big space and Mr. Howe to a cramping of space. “All right, gentlemen; ail right, now," ex- claimed ‘the court, finally, *Wo will these particulars due attention in timo." Mr. Howe proceeded to read the articles of incorporation of the Union depot company, and Mr. Thurston sat down. After the read- ing of the articles came minutes of meetings of the directors of tho bridge company, These minutes show that at a meeting held on November 16, 1889, the stock of the vor- pany was suvscribed to as follows: T. L. Kimball astus Young. . W. H. Holeomb G, W. Holdrege. Willlam A. Higgins J.G. Taylor Total Shary Mr. Howe next read his own aMidavit to the effect that the bonds of the city outstand- ing at this time amounted to $1,660,000, with #25,000 interest thercon. Howe announced plaintifl’s showing, Mr. Thurston took the floor and read an afiidavit made by L. Kimball. It asserted that the plans were changed at the express request of tho city council and the people of Omaha, but “of course” were not cmpleted until after the election; that the company has been compelled to expend 0,000 move for land under the new plans than under the old; there are 1,700 square feet more under the mew plan than under the old; three stories dovoted to depot purposes in tho old and four in the new; the entire floor space in the new 18 40,000 feet more than in the old; he most of the new building will be five Ytorles against three stories in the old. At one time while reading the very loug af- duvit, Mr. Thurston remarked that the With this, Mr, that he Lad completed Union Pactfic had always lived up to its con- tracts with the city, ‘Yes it has!” sncored Mr. Howe, “Well, sir,”" Mr. Thurston exclaimed, “If youor anybody else belioves it hasn't you are at liberty to begin suit immediately on the matter.” I would begin one next week in the name of the city f the city would give me the per- mission.” “Yes, and you would getinto such a suit justas 'you have into this one —just as the hair got into the butter.” The only difference between us,' said Howe, hotly, “is that Tam working in this suit for nothing and you are working for pay, as a hireling,” “Exactly so, ity Thurston rejoined, “and weare both getting pay in this suit according to our value.” Howe blushed and winced very percept- ibly, everybody smiled very broadly, and MF. Thurston resumed his reading of Mr, Kimball's afidavit. Mr. Thurston also road affidavits made by W.H. Holcomb, Super- vising Architect Duran and nimself which wero of o nature similar to that made by Mr. Kimball. 1n his own afidavit Mr. Thurston said that although the depot company was not compelled by the contract to arrange be- foro the completion of tue depot for the al- lowing of such roads to use the depot, it was ready o do so now, Mr. Howe again ook the floor in rebuttal, and began by reading an afidavit made by 3 nan, ex-deputy city clerk, giv- ing a description of the plans first filed and a recital of conversations that he had with Mr, Kimball.

He was selected by the citizens of Omaha to meet President Dilion atthe Grand Pacific hotel in Chicago on thesubject. There were other Omaha citizens present. He, General Cowin, told Mr. Dillion that he, Cowin, thought the city of Omaha and Doug: las county shouid _have some guaran- tee that the depot would como to Omaba. In reply to this Mr. Dillon said ““‘We, the Union Pacific railway compauy propose to have those bonds and we will got them—we shall have them.’” “I was squelched,” continued General Cowin,” but I quietly advised my Omaha friends, clients, not to let the Union Pacific nilroad company have those bonds. 13ut tho Union Pacific ‘railroad company got the bonds, and did Omaha get mnuulmu No, your honor, 1o, gentlemen—no.

Noi as a citizen, an {nter- ested citizen of Omaha, allapart from my comnection with this case, I say never let those bonds be given 1o the Union Pacific railway company: the Union Pacific railroad goes directly back on its obligations, its contrs —goes back upon its sworn pledges. Icharge that instead of the union depot company holding themselves in a position to give other roads an opportunity to come in to such a structure as is proposed, they have simply given away their right to railroads—simply turned our guns and ammu- nition over to the enemy. In regard to giving tho deeds to the depot company, 1 would say that that stands in the same situation as the bonds.” Tho hearing will be resumed at 10 o'clock this morning.

The man referred to was Dave Emerick, who was treasurer of the school district in West Lincoln, but who was short some £00 when he settled up.

The letter states that Knowles has a wife and ehild there, and the first intimation they had of his death was a newspaper clipping.
