JEWETT'S SALE TO CHAFYEE. Validity of It Attacked By the Creditors of soner R, Howell, THEY ASK A RECEIVER'S APPOINTMENT, The First National Bank of Chicago Makes Serious Charges Against Two Omaha Business Men—Other Items, filed In the district in a suit of the court which sale of Papers w yesterday afternoon will test the validity the Omaha business of the Howell Lumber company by H. N. Jewett to Clarence L. Chaffee aud will probably bring out the real facts in connection with the re- cont financial troubles of the big Chicago lumber king. The suit is brought by E. M. Bartlett, esq., of tho firm of Bartlett, Crane & Baldridge, and Hon. John M. Thurston, as attorneys for the Kirst National bank of Chicaga plaintiff, against the Howell Lumber com pany, Spooner R. Howell, Clarence L. Chaf- Herbert N. Jewett, Missouri Luimb and Mining company, M. A. Disbrow, Sherift John F. Boyd, Coroner Cornelius P, Harri gan, Matt Holl and C. Burkhardt. The potition, a lengthy document, details the proceedings that have already boen had in the case. It sets forth that Spooner Rt Howell was, prior toJuly 13, 1501, sole owner of the large lumber business at Omaha conducted under the name of the Howell Lumber company and as such owner and proprictor did & general lumber business and was also sole owner and proprietor of lumber establishments at other voints, under the name of S. R. Howell & Co., and Howell, Jewe't & Co. Tho plaintiff, the First National bank of Chicago, loaned large sums of money to 8. R. Howeli and ais- counted the paper of the said Howell under the various rm names until July 13, 1501, when Howell was iudebted to the bank in a sum amounting to more than $100,000. Then comes a statement of tho local deals leading up to the Howell fuilure. Ou July 13 Spooner iR Howell, under the name of the Howell Lumber company, executed and de livered to the Iirst National bark of C cago u chuttel mortgage, as security for the indebtedness, on alf of the lumber and stock of evory description in Omanu and all per. sonal property in Omaha, including book "ac- counts, offico furniture’ and fixtures and everytiing in Omaha owned by Howell, This mortgage was followed by a transfer of possession to tho plaintiff. The plaintiff alleges that the conditions of this chattel mortzage have been broken and that the in- debtedness to the plaintiff, secured by th chattet mor hus mot been pai R4 10 DO ings at law have been taken for the recovery of said indebtedness. Tho Jewe cal is_pronounced fraudu fouer in tho foilowing language : “Plaintiff further says thut it is informed and believes that Herbery N. Jewett has, for along time prior and up to July 13, 1591, been in the empioy of tho defendant, Spooner K. Howell, at Omaha, as manager’ only of the lumber'yards of said Spooner R. Howell, trading und doing business as the Howell Lumber company. * * * That on and rior to July 13, 1801, Herbert N. Jewett ana Sluren Chaffee, well knowing the prem- 1ses aforesaid, and knowing of the indebted- ness of the Howell Lumber company and Spooner R. Howell to the First National bank of Chicago, and with the intent and d sign to cheat und defraud the plantiff of said indebteduess from smd Spooner K. Howoll and for the purpose of cheating and dafraud- ing qther creditors of Spoouer R. Howell, and for the wrongful, unlawful and fraudulent purpose of = converting the property of said Spoouer R. Howell to their own use, enfered into a corrupt combination and conspiracy for the wrongful, unlawful sud frauduient pur- pose aforesaid and for the purpese of making said conspiracy effective Herbert N. Jewett unlawfully, corruptly and fraudulently pre- tenaing to aet for Spooner R. Howell, made s retended bill of ‘sale of all the property fore described to said Clarence L. Cnafice, for the pretended con- sideration of 704065 of which §112,050.18 was pretended by said H. N. Jewett and C. L. Chaffeo, in said bill of salo to be paid cash in hand by the said Clarence L. Chaffee to the said Herbert N. Jewett, and said Chaffeo, us & part_of the pretended consideration, assumed $154,48. of the mdebtedness of Spooner K. Howel This much af the vetition is very pl Englisk and wlat follows is no less so. The petitioner alleges that Chaffee was and is without means with which to pay the $112 655,18 and without property or means to a sume tho indebtedness of §154,455.50; that Chaffee has no property, means or as- sets 0ot exompt by | from execu- tion, “This plaintiff charges the facts to be" outinues the petitioner, “that said consideration named in said pre- tended bill of sale was not paid or intended, by either Chaffee or Jewett, to be paid, that said bill of sale wns mado by said Jewott, without right or authority and for the pur: pose of converting the property tothe private and personal gain of said defendants, Jewett and Chaffee." 1t1s also charged by the petitioner that the book accounts of the tirm, of the value of $200,000 were takon from the office of the Howell Lumber company, by Jewett and Chaffee, and conveyed to o sacret place, un- known fo the plaintiff, and all this as a part of the nlleged conspiracy to defraud tho First National bank of Chicago and the crea- itors of Spooner R. Howell. These book a counts, the petitioner charges, are still in the hands 0f Chaffee and Jewett who aro *by personal solicitation and letters written and tthrough the United States mails, secrotl fraudulently and unlawfully collecting attempting to collect and convert to their own use, moneys, the proceeds of said book accounts,” Mr. Chaffee is also charged with sending to parties indebted to the Howell Lumber com- pany “certuin false, fictitious and fraudulent letters containing statemeuts of account of such ndebtedness, the headings of which are printed in the likeness and similitudo of the lowell Lumber company’s letterheads and billheads,” and which stato in effect that Chaffeo IS suceessor in business to said con pany, “ana fo further carry out said protenso and conspiracy the said Chiaffeo is protending 10 saig parties so indobted and to others that he is in possession of said lumber yards and to that end ho is filhing orders for lumber through lumber brokers and lumber dealers for tho purpose of making it appear to said parties so indebted that be1s in good faith conducting said Howell Lumber company's business as successor there to,” ‘The plaintiff further alleges that whatover claims Chaffee and Jowett may have to the property are fictitions and fraudulent and ought not to be allowed to interfore with the plaintift’s claim The potition further details the history of the roplevin case by which the plaintiff se- cured possession of n part of the property, and of the second case brought to recover the balance of the property. It alleges that Sherlff Boyd took possession of the lumber yard, but was unuble to get the book ac- Couuts, liens, commercial paper and ovi- dences of indebledness whicn Jowett and Chaffeq, “in furtherance of said conspiracy aforesald, had covertly and secrotly taken away from the oftice of said Howell Lumber company and bidden." The plaintiff complains that while the property was in the possession of thoe shorift 8 largo portion of tho lumber was seized by Coroner Harvigan upon a writ of attachment brought by the Missouri Lumber and Mining company, and IHarrigan still claims pos- session thereof ngaist the protest of the plainuifr, It is alleged that Sherift Boyd, after turn- ing over the property to the plaintiff, unlaw- fully seized a largo portion of it agaim on a writ of attachment In favor of M. A. Dis- brow & Co. Tho plaintiff complains that the Missourl Lumber and Minink company and M. A. Dis- brow & Co. threaten to carry the property away and have itsold, and that Boyd and Harrigan threaten to assist thew; that Boyd and Harrigan also threaten to seize by at- lachment other property not already attached, and If theso parties are allowed to carry out their threats it will work great and irfopar- Able Injury to the plaintifr W herefore the plaintiff prays, first, for the appointment of & receiver with the usual ROWers lu such cases and that the mortgage be foreclosed; socond, that Chaffee be de- clared to have no right or clsim to the prop- erty or moneys collected therefrom, and tha ne and Jewett, and their agents, vierks, sory- ants and employcs be required and enjoined to deliver over to said receiver all the book accounts, liens, evidences of indebteaness and moneys collected by or through thom: third, that the receiver sell the property by order of the court, and collect all outstanding ac- counts; fourth, that an account be taken of Howell's indebtedness to the plaintiff fifth, that the proceeds be applied to the pa ment of the amount found by the court due to the plaintiff from S. R. Howell: sixth, that in case of a deficiency after applying the proceeds of such sale that a judgment b rendered in favor of the plaintiff against Spooner K. Howell for the amount of the do- ficiency ; seventh, that a temporary injunc- tion istue restraining the defendants from interfering with any of the books, property, accounts or effects of tho said Spooner K. Howell or the Howell Lumber company. Accompanying tho petition is & lengthy afdavit made by E. M. Bartlett, esq., in support, of the allegations set up in the petition. Among other showings made in the aMdavit is one to tho effect that tho at- torneys of C. L. Chaffee, did in a suit for other pavties for the collection of a claim agamst the Howell Lumber company, alle that the protanded sale of the plaut b, Jewott to Chaffeo was frandulent and ilogal, Mr. Bartlett aiso presents copies of letters from C. L. Chaffee to cus- tomers of the Howell Lumber company, rep- resenting himself (Chaffee) as successor to the Howell Lumber company and demanding payment to him of bills_die the said cc pany: also an order from Jewett to the Omaba postmaster, dated August 3, for the delivery to bim (Jewett) of mail for the Howell Lumber comvany, although by the bill of sule ho had transferred all of his in in the concern to Clarence L.

FIVE MLES OF STONE MAY .BE LAID, The Council's Order if Carried Out by the Board of blic Works Would Bankrupt Prop- erty Owners, Property owners inside the fire limits aro swing with alarm’ recent actions of the city council and board of publie works touch- ing the matter of permanent sidewalks. Tho impression has been generaliy con- voyed to them that under the existing order of things all sidewalks within the fire linits are lable to be ruthlessly torn up, regardless of their conditio of good or ill repair, andreplaced with arti- ficial stone walks and the cost charged up to the property. This is the understanding of realty owners, and the effect my well be im- agined Complaints and protests aro thick'ern pros pective candidates, and excited property own- ers aro asking each other ~what they “are going to do. Unfor- tunutely for them, their fears are not groundiess, ana the indications are that somo of the rebellious ones will nave occasion to carrry out their threats and ask some sympa- an on the district beneli to put at. lcast o temporary stop to the proposed proceedings. Inquiry at the Board of Public Works elicited the following information : That the council must condemn old ks bofore ordering new ones laid in their places. Second. That virtually all the temporary sidewalk inside the firo limits has been so condemued and uew walks ordered laid. Third, That owing to the rejection of bids for nutural stone walk, artificial stone is the only material that can bo. luid for permancat walks Fourth, That Ford & Hughes have the contract for laying artificial stone sidewalks, That the bourd of public works hus beon ordered by the council to go ahead at once and have these walks put down. The whole thing in a nutshill is that & Hughes have a corner of the most kind, and the council bnas or- o the board of public works to give them everything in sight as well as sev- eral ueres beneath the surface, In explaining tho situation C hauser stated that there is o g temporary sidewalk inside limits ‘that is in good condition and the property owners ought not to bo compelled to the present time, as for at least another are too hard to push them to needless expense. _He said that he proposed to call the atten- tion of the council to the matter, and would make an examination to see how much of the walk did not need imm diate attentioa. He was not in favor of tearing it up and would uot do so unless further instructions were received, but said that if the council insisted on it the Board of Public Works could do nothing but carry out their instructions. Personally, ~ he thcught it unnecessary to use artificial or natural stone in tho outer portion of the city, although taken 1 by the extended fire limits, as brick tiling would do justas well, but the council hud decreed otherwise and there was no help for it. He had nothing to offer as to why naturai one was knocked out, but vouchsafed the information that more bids for that material would_be opened at the next board meet- ing. In the meantime, however, Ford & Hughes have the field to themselyes. The chairman could not tell how much’ sidewalk was ordered laid. He was certain that there'was at least a milo, didn’t know whether or not there was two miles, and couldu’t positively say that there wouldn’t be tive miles. All there is to it, Ford & Hughes have an exclusive contract to put down from one to five miles of artificial stone sidewalle at 17 conts per square foot and wood plank walks areto be torn up to give them something todo That is why property owners are wecping and alternaté cursing and lamentation Ll the air.

Defective Paving Material Discovered —Squirgs’ Street Sweepe Atthe meeting of the Bourd of Public Works held yesterday afternoon, the mem- bers had a rouna with J. B. Smith & Co., the coutractors who are paving Nortn Tywent- ieth street with vitrified brick. Some days ago when the board and tho city engineer visited the works they discovered” somo 5,000 soft brick upon tho dump. T'hey were ordered removed, but in- stead of doing so the contractors have shoved the brick into the pavement. The bourd has ordered all of the objectionuble material torn out and will refuse to allow the esti- mates until the instructions have beou obeyed. C. 15, Squires’ street sweepimg con'ract and the manner in which the work is being done was brought up and discussed. Major Furay imtroduced a resolution to dis- continue the use of two wheeled sweepers but withdrew it before a vote was taken, He said the brushes in the small sweepers were oo soft and would not remove anything but light dirt: consequently on stone paved streets tho sweeping was not satisfactory. Mr. Squires informed the board that large sweepers hud been purchased and were on the way here. Iusnector Snowden was called in and asked why he did not follow the sweepers at night instead of going over the work in the morning. Snowden iuspects from 8:30 until noon, and daring the balance of the time works 1n the city engincer’s oftice. No action was taken on_the proposition to remove the vacant anddilapidated buildings on Burt and Cuming strects. ‘I'he memoers were afraid to tackle the buildings, claim- ing that they had no authority to enter upon private proporty and remove i nuisance, A resolution was adopted by which hero- after bidders may sccure the roturn of their checks, providing they put up-bonds in double'tho amount. of but that many persons suffer for years with ailments that could cusily bo "eured by tho use of some simplo remedy.

Mr. Mciean was seen at the M terday morning, and statec wias on his way to Pueblo, ton, Cal, San Francisco and Por- tland to examine sites for pub. lic buildings at those places and had stopped in Omaha for the purpose of looking over the old federal building und reporting upon tne changes necessary in order to make the old pile habitable until the new building is com- pleted. ““Has vour visit any connection with the new building “None whatever, except the sitc over in order to with the general situation.

Charles Beindorf of the firm of Fowler Beindorf said the sketeh was a very rough one, and it was almost impossible to form an intellizent iden of the building from the cut, but he was of the opinion that the new building would be superior to the majority of buildings, There was an entire Jack of “de- tails in~ the sketch, but the ensemblo was good and he had 1o doubt the building would be a nandsome one. Louis Mendelssohn of the firm of Mendels- sohn, Pisher & Lawric said he had a ve poor opinion in general of the ouildings erected by the United States wovernment they lacked all distinguishing chavacteri tics. The new builaing would no doubt be as good as some of the rest of those erected by the government, but it p ted a very ordinary appearance and was not such a building as would attract the attention of visitors. It was not what would naturally bo expected in a government building. While a finished drawing would undoubtediy show the fimish more in detuil and bo more atisfactory, yet tho general appearance of the brilding was unsatisfactory and very ordina; Henry Voss was inelined tq take things as he jound them. He said the builaing was not bud looking and- showed a vetter design thau most goverament buildi but he strongly disupproved of the plan to have the building on the strect line, os it would not show off to advantage, If it had been placed back about, forty feet from the street, so as to give a good sized lawn n front, it would make a better appearance. “It can’t be possible that the skotch d-es the design full justice,” said Mr. Sidney Smith, unother well kuown architect. “If it gives anything like a correct general idea of the building itis simply excerable: 1 can’t conceive that it is possible that the government would issue such a design as that. The sketch itself is something awful, but 1t must cer- tainly convey u general idea of the building, and [ must say that it is an extremely ordi- v looking building. It is much more ordi- nary than most government buildings, and is not'calculated to veflect any credit on its de- siguer. It is not the sort of a building the people would naturally expeet and I imagine there will be a great deal of disappointment caused by putting up such a building.” O. M. Zander of the firm of Dlake & Zander, architects, said the building wa very poorly conceived. The putting of a tower 1n the center of the Sixteenth street front made that side prominent to tne detri- ment of the otter sides. He thought that Scventeenth street wus destined to be as much of a thoroughfare as Six teenth street and it would e the natural outlet for all the streels in the vicinity of the city hall. He not in favor of putting the buildings on one side of the block aud Icaving a vacantlot for hi ing erounds and peanut stands at the vear, The building itself was very unsatisfactor, according to Mr. Zander's notion, and pre sented anything but an 1wmnosing appearance, He would favor putting & turret on each corner, instead of the large central tower, as that would avoid sacrtficing three sides for the sake of one. It would not be necessary to have entrances under the turrets. It would even be better to put the tower on one corner instead of in the center, but above all things the building should be in the center of the block. —_— Parents ReadThis, July and August are anxious montns for mothers who carefully watch over their little ones.
