THEIR WANTS NOT CERTAIN Members of the City Connoil Cannot Decide on Lighting }ixtures, THREE HOURS OF EARNEST DISCUSSION Long and Prayerfal Consideration of the Bubject Leaves the Matter as Much In the Dark as Ever tions That Died, There were twelve members of tho city council who attended the special moeting held last night. For threo long hours they sat in committee of the whole, attempting to disposo of the question of gas and electric light fixtures for the new city hall. Mr. Edwards occupled the chair and when the committe arose, progress was the only thing that he was able to report. As soon as Mr. Edwards had settled him- self in his new position, Mr. Munroe led off by asking that tho architect be allowed to talk upon the subject of fixtures, Tho priv. flogo was granted ana the gentieman told the councilmen that they ought to bo able to select fixtures as there wero sik or eight designs presented, Mr. Howoll thought the city could save money by re-advertising for bids. Mr. Primer could not agree to that prop- osition. Mr. Hetherington of the tirm of do Kesenko & Hetherington was invited to speak. Ho sald tuere woro but fow manufactuvers in tho United States who could furnish fixwures for such & building as the Omaba city hall. His prices that had been submitted were very low and he did not expect o nako more than $500 or 00 if ho secured the job; tho chargo of a combination among the " fixturo dealers was absolutely untrue. He stated that the I3dison company had never farnished a large building aud aid uot think he people of Omaha wanted the company to experiment on the city hall Mr. Back wanted to know if there would boany bill for extras. Ho said that it had been the custom to iet a contract and eventually the price would ve doubled on ac count of & lot of extras. Me. Hotherington repliod that he did not intend to put in a bill for extras. Trylng to Get a Vote, Mr. Tuttle moved tnat tho desizns of de Koseuko & Hetherington be accepted. Mr. Princo as an_amendment moved thay the do Kosenko & Hetherington firm be given a contract for tno rotunda and the council chamber, and that Russell, Pratt & Co. havo the balanco. Mr. Jacobson urged that the city would ‘malke money by advertising for new bids. Mr. Howell said that the report of the committeo on public property and buildings was not inteiligible ana that it was pretty hard to state just what the report meant. In hiis opinion tuere was but one bid, and that was the one submitted by the lowest bidder, which was the firm of Russel, rats & Co. Then a vote was ordored aud in_turn the motion and the amendment were both de- feated. Tho decks being cleared Mr. Fleassor moved that all bids bo rejected and that the comptroller be instructed to readvertiso four woeks for bids. Mr. McLearic declared that such a move would not bo a square deal. It was simply boys' play, and bringing men horo to bid and then rejocting their bids would injure the reputation of tho ci Mr. Elsassor’s motion was deteated. Some t Died, Mr. Elsasser did not proposo to down, and jumping up ho sprung a resolution asing that five oxports bo asked to examine tho figures and report to the council whica wero the best and chieapest, Mr. Princo took time to remark that the resolution was a slap at tho intelligence of the architect, the council and all hands, He then moved that the rasolution be consigned to the table and thero it went. Mr. Munroe moved that the designs be re- turncd to the bidders and that new bids bo subutted tomght. This otion failed to exist for more than o minute. It was do- feated and thrown into the corner whero all other previously introduced resolutions and motions quietly rosted. Mr. Howell then moved that ouly tho de- sigus and bid presented by de Kosenko & Hotherington be considered. This motion was defeated, and then Mr. Prince moved that the report of the commitice on public property and buildings, submitted Wednos- dny night, und which wasas follows, bo ndopted: our committee to whom was roferred the plans and estimacesfor gas and clectric fixtures for tho city hall do recommend thav the contract, for all the Bower Borfl fixtures, tho council chamber fixtures and the two newel standards on first floor bo_awarded to the de Kosinko & Hetherington Manufactur- ing compuny ; that the balanco of the fixtures be awarded to Russcil, Pratt & Co., all to be executed according to the plans and specifi- cations and the number and price attached 10 the same, and that the city attorney be in- structed to preparo the necessary contrac and bonds."! Thero wasn't any talk, but this motion went with the others. Mr. Lowry saw a way out of the tang! and moved that the committeo rise and re- POFt progress. Reported Progress and Quit, For some renson the motion was adopted, and as soon as Mr. Prince took the chair Mr. Lowry moved that all bids be rejected, and that the comptroller be instructed to adver- tise for four weeks for bids, Mr. Edwards offered un amendment that the council accept the bid of de KKosenko & Hetherington, The amendment was snowed under and then the motion went along to keep it com- Totions Specht, hoplng to score & point, moved for @ call of the houso and that the absentees be brought to the council camber. Tne chairman ruled the motion out of order, while Mr, Specht remarked that he could not see how 1t huppened. ‘Another motion to reject all bids was de- feated, and then the councll tried to do a little business, but it was a failure. It was suggestod that the repaving of Leavenworth street and Park avenuoe would use up $20,000 of the £50,000 of intersection fund, Mr. Munroo thought that the voto by which the ordinance ordering the repaving of those two streets was passed should boe reconsidered, Ho fuvored an omnibus ordi- nance which would cause the two streets to take their chauces with other streots, 1,00k ing on the manner in that light, he moved a reconsideration. Mr, Prince declared the motion out of order. Mr. Munroo did not intend to be downed aud renewed his motion, Again Mr. Prince declared the motion out of order, as the call for the special meeting did not provide for the trausaction of that class of busines —— he mosquito as & publio singer draws well, but never gives satisfaction, Salvation Oil, however, always gives satisfaction in curing at once insect bites or any othier sores or wounds, Irice 25 cents, Jvery household should be supplied with a bottle of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup—the gruat family remeay. e HELPS THE GENERAL FUND, City Cash Account Swelled by Proceeds of a Blg Tax Sale. County Treasurer Irey is delighted over the fact that he has just closed up a tax sale which nets $16,094.70, $11,832.10 of which goes into the city general fund, For thirty yoars Goneral Experience Esta- brook has been the owner of the valuable roperty at Sixteonth and Chicago streets, uring the greater portion of this loog eriod of years he has failed aud rofused pay the taxes lovied against \bhe property.

Yesterday's morning hours in Judge Davis’ court were devoted to hearing oxcuses of jurors who wera drawn on the special venire, Some of the men succeeded in convincing the court that thoy should be excused, but enough ware retained so that tho business of the torm was continued. The caso of the state against O, H. Snyder and M. C. McGrow was then taken up.

Osborn has brought suit in tho district court to recover possession of somo lots that ho onco owned. In his petition ne charges that ho swindled by Potor Weberg and Charles J. Johnson. Ho further charges that during the month of November, 1501, he laboved with a severe case of 1a grippe, which produced grievous sickness, aistress of body and aberration of mind. While in this condition ho met the flefend- ants, who induced him to trade his Omaha property, vuluod at £5,000, for worthless land in Garfield county. Judie Hopowoll is hearing the case ot B. Wood and othors against the suit grows out of the opening of North Twenty-second street. On February 1, 1891, the city council passed an ordinanco declac: ing the necessity of opening tho street. The cost, $26,500, was assessed as bonefits against tho proverty of the plaintiffs. They then so- cured an injunction restraining the city from levying the spocial tax, alleging that their property was not benefited by the proposed opening of the street. - The Toternational Loan and Trust com- pany of Kuusas City, and the Guaranty Loan ana Tnvestment company of this city, havo gone to war over two notes of $130 each, and su s have been brought in the district court y the Iansas City company.

Harry Harrison, who served under the Thayer reign, have brought suit in the district court to’ recover $00 from Louis Heimrod and _his bondsmen, John Baumer and Henry Bolln. In their petition tho plaintifis allege that on May 23, 1501, Heimrod brought o suit rostraining them om inspecting oils; that afterwards the ordor of the court was set aside and the suit dismissed for want of prosccution, On ac- count of the restraining order having been 1ssued, Carns and Harrison allege that they lost $500 which they swould and could have collected as fees of the oftice. In addition to this they aver thatthey expended iargo sums of money in hiriny lawyers to fight the caso. Unl Merit.

Novel Suit Over Poll's Ability or In- ability to Talk, A novel and peculiar caso has been sot for trial in Justico Bradloy's court for April It is a case in which tho vocal ability of a parrot will play a very important par Almost a year ago a man named Simons, who lives in the western part of the state, bought a young parrot from Max Geisler, the Omaha pot stok dealer. Sinons claims that Geisler guaranteed that the parrot would talk within six months after the pur- chase, He furtuer alloges that the bird has signally failed to dovelop its vocal pow- ers, Ina coarse, ill-bred sort of way it will occasionally scream “Rats,” but aside from that slang remark the parrot absolutély ro- fuses to engage in conversation. All efforts to make the bird talk respectably have been of no avail so Mr. Simons has decided to suo Mr. Gelsler for §25, the sum paid for the parrot, ‘Che parrot wiil be one of the witnesses in court, - CURSION, FAR OKlahoma, Mary Round trip tickets will be on sale via Missourl Pacific voute, March 22, to all points in Oklahoma and return, at rate of one fare for th ound tri Tickets good until April ‘or tickets and informution call at offices, N, . corner 13th and Farnawm, or depot 15th and Webster, Tuos, ¥, Goprrey, J.

T. Cathiers, chairman of the committee, stated that all the company's obligations had been extended. Ono £5,000 note, maturing the coming December had been extended to December, 1507, He said the men in the compauy were worthy business men, and ho recommended that the association commend their enterpriso to the public and render tho company all possible assistanco in raising the §,000. For this hosuggested that a trusteo be appointed to whom the company shall executy anote, securing it by tho issuranco of scveuty-five shares of tho capital stock of the concorn. His report was adopted and the matter was roferrea to Mr, Cathers with power to act in the matter, George N, Hicks statod that he had been in correspondence with several tanuors to locato und do business in Owaha, but the catest obstaclo in tho way was tan-bark, Tanners wanted to locate where they could get bark and hices withont the expense of having to import either article, A committee of three, consisting of Messrs. | Taylor, Balcombe and Cathers, was ap- poiuted touct 1n conjonction with similur committees of the Board of Trade and the South Omaha Live Stock Iixchange, whose joint duty it will ba to get better railroad rates for lve stock. The committee is o permanent ono. Cadet Tayler exhibited a couple of pearl buttons, the first ever made in Omaba, He said thoy wero manufactured by Frank Kns- par, who started the enterpriso as an expe ment. Ho has now thirty peoplo employed and is unable to fill his oraers, He said ho could work 100 people. Mr. Taylor was re- qaested to visit tho factory and see what could be doue in the way of encouraging its ealargement. "'he question of holding the people’s party convention in the Coliseum was discussed, but no action was taken in the matter. Some thought the street car service would be 1n- adequate to accommodate the multitudes and that the Coliseum was too far out. Mr. Taylor was in favor of displaying a little enterprise by erecting u wigiwam, Presiaent Boggs brought up the question of how to induce manufacturers tv locato here, and said that the support of the masses was necessary. A few men in the association could ot do everything. **Wo must reach the manufacturers of the world and that will cost money,” said he. “We must raise it by subscription and I have Just issued a circular to that effect.” e chief object of this association is the builaing up of manufacturing enterprises in Omaha. Our plan 1s to pat ourselves in com- muuication with the manufacturers, joboers and bankers of the United States and foreign countries, making known to them, through letters, circulars and advertising matter, to bo mailed to them once a month or oftener, the advantages of Omaha as a location for manufactories as well as adistributing point. To carry out this pl will cost §1,200 to $1,500 per month, including sccretary, clerks, postage, printing, office rent, etc. *“I'hero are 18,000 real estate owners in the city whose backing and support we must have. If wo undertake to get manufactories we shall have to get at least 1 per month from the smail owners, whils the moro able ones should subscribe’ as liberally as their finances may justify, certainly not less than from $1 to £ per month. “From correspondence already had with eastern manufactories we are led to believe that from $10,000 to £15,000, exther in the way of bonus or stock subscription, will in_most cases bring factories which will first invest from £40,000 to $100,000 of their own. With- out these fuctories Omaha must be a heavy sufferer. Our available capital is small, contributed by a fow patriotic real estato owners. We cannot afford to speud our time nor their money in trying to convince the other real -estato owners of Omaha that something should be dove for the city. 1f we accomplish anything 1t must ba through the meaus placed at our disposal by the masses of tho real estate owners of the city.” — Mrs. L.

FRIGHTFULLY MA_NGLED. An Unfortunate Shoe Dealer Cut to Pieces by a Switeh Engine, T. Waxman, a rather well known charac- ter about the city, was run down and killed by Union Pacific switch engine No. 1466 yesterday morning. Waxman was o shoe dealer and was crossing the railway bridge over South “T'wentieth strect on his way to bis place of business at 509 South Iourteenth street, when ho was overtaken by the engiuo and instantly killed. He was fearfuly mangled, both logs and ono arm beiug nearly severed from his body aud his bead 50 crushed and mangled as to be almost bryond recognition. Waxman lived on South Twenty-tifth street and leaves a family in not uncomforta- ble circumstances. Tho engine was in_charge of Nick Weeks and the accident was witnessed by a flaguman, John Fenton, An inquest was held by Corcnor Maul at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. After hearing the testimony of the train crew the jury de- cided that Waxman’s death was due to his own caralessuess, Later in the day the budy was buried at the Russian cometor, Oxans, March 17.—To the Editor of Tune Bee: After tho death of Garfield thero was a long newspaper wraugle todetermine which of his doctors killed him; for it was soon agreed on all sides that he would nover have died from the Guiteau bullet if search for that had never becn mado; thatthe surgzeons, so-called, in probing for it, literally tore him, 10 pieces and sent him w0 his wortal tomb, Thayer, too, a8 governor, it seems, has gono to his final rest, and Tue Bee of this morn- ing, by its Lincoln comments upon the con- duct of his case, inspired, as it would seem, by Dr. Webster or such ‘of his friends as lot him fall easily, charges that the " of Dr. Blair ' demurring to Boyd’s answer, when Lo might have replica, has causea the great stench which now fils the public nostril, “Thio facts, however, are that the demurrer was drawn and agreed upon by Judgo Mason and myself as the proper thing to file, aud was filed at about the hour of noon one day.
