ELSASSER AND ASPHALTOM | What the fecond Ward Councilman Thinks of the Great Barber Monopoly. PERSONAL RELATIONS WITH SQUIRES Hlow an Unpleasantness Came Up—The Methods Pursued in Making Council Committes Reports on Contracts ~One Side of a Story, The Real Estate Owners association in vestigation was continued beforo Messrs. J. T. Cathers and Cadet Taylor yesterday after- noon, 1n order io correct a misapprehension that exists as to the purpose of the investigation the committeo has exprossed itself as fol- lows in order that the public may under. stand the position taken by it: Thoro seems to be u little misunderstanding a8 to the purposo of the committes ot the Real kstate Owuers assoclation. For some unknown reason nearly half a miilion of dol- lars worth of publle Improvements which should have been commenced last April have been delayed until late In the summer, to the great detrinient of the workingmen, mer- chants, mechanics and othors. This delay affects overy merchant and a groat many property owners and taxpayers. As th reprosentatives of i) contributing tax- Payers we aro not Investigating anybody, but wiil n lonvor to nscertain and fix the respon- sibility of tho delay in the pubile improve- ments, The Inguiry will be open to everybody. and the committoo will glve everyone intorested a talr hoaring, and it will not hesitate when it ascertains the facts to fix the responsibliity whore it belongs. The main object is to prevent so much reck- Toss waste of time another yoar, and to sve it we cannot prevatl upon our public servants to take np the question of public lnprovements and award the contracts during the winter, and when the season opens In the spring he prepured to push the we And we wish also to ascertaln if. in orderinz permanent side- wa ks, roal estate owners are properly pro- tected in their rights.

Letters have been sentto the city clerle and chairman of the Board of Public Worbs asking thom to favor the committee with a complete list in dotail of all puolic improve- meuts considered or ordersa auring 1801, giving dates and copy of advertisements, copy of bids, action of board, date sent to city council and when returned to the board, with the action thereon, mames of con- tractors and copy of specifications, full history of all such cases whilo in bhands of city council, names of committees and action of the council inall cases, and re questing the same detailed information as 0 150 What Furnas Told. Mr. J. W. Furnas was the first witness called, and he told of Cosirman Birkbuauser's fallure to order sidewalks laid after being so instructed by the council, and that although Birkbauser had told Councilman Tuttle in tho hearing of the witness that he would order the contractors to go abead at once, he had not kept his promise, and had not or- dered the contractor to go ahead until per- emptorily ordered to do so by the council. Heo ulso told of Ernest Stuht's bid on High- 1and, Kan., stone and the nction of the Board of Public Works 1n awarding him the con- tract at 17 ceuts, wien as a matter of fact it was a fictitious stone that could not properly be classed as suitable vaving stone, and was put in for the purpose of knocking out the witness, and that the council, after in- yostigating the matter, refused to contrm Stuht's voud and contract. He again called Birkhauser's veracity in question, as to the latter’s statement thut he had given the wit- ness orders for 28,000 feet besides the High school grounds, when as a matter of fact it amounted to only 25,000 feet wcluding the High school grounds. He aiso explained that on looking up an 8,000-foot order given bim by Birkhauser it was found that all but 1,798 feet of it had already been laid by other contractors, Ho couldn't ses how it happened that Birkhauser didn’t know that the walic was laid, If he was looking after the city’s business, as he should. He said he merely wanted to make these statements in reply to Birkhauser's charges that he and his son had lied when before the board on the pre- vious day. He read from an interview in Tue Beg in'which Birkhauser charged that the Gilfillan stone, which Furnas represented, was rejocted because it was of the same quality as the Highland stone which had been proviously rejected. He deuled that this was true, and suid that the stone was far from being the same. What Elsusser Knows. Councilman Elsasser was the nuxt witness, He sald that no pavicg was done in 1591 be- cause of the lack of money. The city hud voted po bonds to pay the cost of paving 1n- tersections, and no money was voted for sowers, either. It was impossible to extend public improvements whero no intersections were to be put in, because of ivjunctions se- cured by property-owners, He said that 100,000 foet of sidewalk was condemned, and that much of it was iu good counaition, and that he was opposed 1o it, us it was unjust snd fmposed a hardship on property-owners to condewn walks that had been put dawn only a few months before and were still in good condition. e did not kuow why no brick sidewalks had been ordered uncil within the past few wecks, but he did know that Conncilman Steel had intrcduced o ves- olution providing that only siagolithic walk sbould be laid on Farnam between Eign- teenth and Twenty-fourth streots, and the witness bad manuged (o secure n change, providing that any kind of permanent walk vould do, thus admitting of competition, vrhlcn was not possible under Steel’s resolu- tion. About Squires’ Spocifications, Then paving was touched on, and Mr. E|- sasser said there had been no strife butween the council and tho contractors. All the trouble had been between the council and Board of Public Works, und between the contractors and Board of Public Works. This year, for the firat time in the history of che city government, the city engineor and Board of Public Works prepared their own specifications. In other years the Barber Asphalt company had prepared the specifica- tions and hud bid on blanks prepared: by itself. When the new specifications calling for sheet asphultum were prepurcd tho coun- cil fuvored them, as the contractors had not discovered what was up and hadn’s had t to kick, but us soon a8 thuy found it out there was & terrible howl, and tho ordinance wont to the commit- tee oh paving, curbiug and gnitering, com- lulsud of Svecht, Steol and Jucobson. When he orainance was reported back after a long delay it was vory much interlined, aud pro vided that only asphaltnm from tho pitch fnko on the island of Trinidaa should bo laid, This shut out everybody but the Barbor company, which was Lbe only one that could got tho lake asphaltum. The council passed it as reportod, and agaln passed it over the mayvor's veto, Speeht had on one ocoasion sald that be put b the iuterlineations, and on another occasion said his bookkeeper did it Squires had not denied it whon acoused of doing it biumself, Elsnsser and Squires’ Relations, T'ne witness said Squires was opposed to bim ana had sald be would spend §5,000 to defeat him because he had reported aguinst Squires' disputed olaim. bquires had worked hard to secure the nomination und election of the witness, and within @ fow days aftor enteriug upon the dischurgo of his duties as councilman tho wiiness was surprised to find bimsolf placed on a cowmittes Lo consider Squires' alsputed elaim for streot sweeping, After making in- uiry he found that iu justice Lo the city the i1 should be cut, and lu order to agred as to bow much of a reduction should be made the threo mombors of the committee wrote on slips of puper and placed them in a hat. The wituess wanted the bill ocut 40 per cent, Douuelly wanied to cut it 25 per cent and Moreurty 15 per cent. Bo they added them all togethar sud divided the sum by 3, aud that gave thew a out of 27 per cont. ~When they spoke to Squires about It be swore that ho wouldu't stund & cut of & sluglo cent, aud witness theroupou reporied I in favor of compelling Squires to go into court if he wanted to collect his bill, and lot him get what e could. The next time Squires saw the witness he told him how he had worked to elect him and had voted all his men for him both at the primary and at the election, and ho had thought that witness was his friend, but he had found out differently, and if he ever bobbed his head up again he would spend ,000 to defeat him. Only the other aay Squires met tho wit- ness and said: ‘‘Well, I've been out among your constituents, You've been such a good friend of mine I thought I ought to help you a littlo, and we've made up our minds to send you back—to the burber shop.” Contractors and Committees. Then they got buck to the report of the committee on the specifications ordinanc *Did that committeo report in favor of the changes that were calculated to benefit the Barber monoply alone!" asked Mr. Taylor. “Did_they !’ ejaculated Mr. Elsasser, “well, I shoula say they did! Whea asked whether the coatractors fn- terfered with committee work and with councilmen, ho said that the contractors had a haoit of being very numorous when auy action in which they were interested was boing considered. He covldn’t say, how- ever, that the contractors paid councilmen for their votes, but he knew that there was hardly an ordinance that came up that Gidn’t fnterest somebody, and that if a councilman was looking for *'stuff” he could rake in from 85 to 850 several huodred times a year, Whan asked about the delay ot committees in reporting on mattors referred to them, he said it bad become very common, for somo reason or other, and that there was no neces- ity for it. Whilo chairman of an important committea last year he nover held papers longar than a week, and frequently reported in three duys if there huppened Lo bea special meeting. ‘ Degrees of Asphaltum., As to the lake asphaltum matter, he couldn’t understand how it happened that after putting down overflow asphalt in this city for yoars the Barber company had not discovered that it was of inferior quahty until other companies tried to come 1in and compete with them in the use of the same article, when it suddenly made the aiscovery that the only good asphaltum was its own luke, where nobody else could touch 1t. Ho thought 1t strange that the Barber company was 80 anxious to furnish a superior article all at once. Ho said that Jaicks haa hid against the Barver comvany, and notwithstanding the fact that he was'a lower bidder he had suc- ceoded only in getting a block and a half on St. Mary's avenue, and it looked very much as if that was simply u part of a move to kill off Mr, Jaicks. The Board of Public Works had exacted a bond requiring a bidder to enter intoa contract and now had about £4,000 of Jaicks' money tied up in this way, and there was a rule that in case a success- ful bidder did not go ahead he should never be allowed to bia again. Jaicks had been awarded o small contract Just to put him in this boat. He must now put in a $15,000 plant in order to pave that block and a half or forfeit ull the money he bad up und be forever debarred from bidding on any more street paving in Omaba. The witness thought that the filioustering tactics of the contractors was due to their disapproval of the specifications and of tho guaranty clause, und that they bad influenced the councillmen.

She was brought into the second district court room presumably to give further avidence at the inguest. Miss Borden was accompanied by her sister and Mrs. Brigham. All the broceodings wore vehind locked doors, When Miss Lizzie re- turned from thes third inquiry she was a physical ana mental wreck and was con- ducted to the matron’s room, The investiga- tion was adjourned avout 4 o'clock. District Attorney Knowiton and other offl- cers went to the marshal's private ofic where they remained closetod for two hours. Shortly after 6 o'clock, City Marshal Hillard and District Attorney Knowlton drove to the home of Andrew Jennings, who had been the family attorney for somo years. They re- turned about 7 o'clock and went into the matrou’s room, where Miss Borden was lying on asofa. The reading of the worrant was waived. The lady took the announcement with surprising calmness, The two women who wera with her were much more visibly affected. The excitement was very great when the nows of the arrest bocame known, although some hours previous it was generally under- stood that Miss Borden was soon to be made a prisoner. Miss Borden was searched by Miss Russell shortly after sho was formally placed in custody. All the afternoon a machinist had been at work on the safe at the Borden homestead, but he had not been able toopen it. Other witnesses examined at the iuquest were Kl Benee, who is supposed to have refused to sell poison to the prisoner; his assistant, Frod Hart, and Frank Kilroy, who was in the store when it was alleged Miss Bordon made the request. Their evidence 1s said Lo have clinched the suspicions of the police. The ity marshal's guard wiil be kept around the house for some time longer. Miss Sullivan 1s still with her relatives, Miss Borden was arraigued before a Fall River, Mass., justice and held to auswer for the murder of her father and stepmothor. She was committed to jail and bail refused. —— In Time of Peaco Prepare for War, Have you ever thougnt what you would do in case you or some of your family was taken with a severe attack of colic,cholora morbus, dysentory or diarrhaea.

It was an address that will be remembered many yoars by wost of the toachers present. His subject was the difficulties and worry- ments that baset the lifo of the school teacher, Before ontering upon the real subject solected the chancollor took occasion to oxplain to the eachers that he aud the pro- fessors in tho universty wero simply teachers in an adjoining room, a differont dopartme nt of the sume groat systom of state education with the aistriot teachers before him. {ou may not believe,” said the chancel- lor, “that I am only a teachor in a difforent department of the samo system, and you may doubt that [ believe it, out I shall tr couvinee you that iv is true, nevertheless.’’ Rounds in Life's Ladder. He then explained the relations that exist botween the district school, the graded school and the State university. They were all part and parcel of the same system. Mr. Huxloy had saia once that a system of edu- cation was a ladder that stood with one end {n the zutter and the ovher in the university. *Wo have no such thing as the gutter in Nebraska,'’ said the chancellor, *‘and I hope 10 God wenever will have. I will say, then, that the systom of state educauion in this stato 1s or should e a ladder which reaches from tbe door of the primary school to the door of any college in good standing. Every stop and every round in this ladder ought to bo within the reach of every boy and girl in the commonwealth, ‘I'hore wasa time when the world moved slow. The ox was the motive power. Then aman had a fair chance of fghting the battles of life with no education but that which he re- ceived at the common district school. But times have changed. The world moves faster now and a man must have keencr Wit and a broader education in order to rise above the ranks wheramuscle is the reliance, A ran who has only 8 common school edu- cation is protty sure to bo nothing buta common man, as Lhe world goes at present. Good Enough for Anybody. “{do notlike thatname common asap- plied to_schools, because it formerly meant 1hose sohoois that were attended by only the poor and dependent. [t used to be consid- ered a disgraco for well-to-do people to send ir children to the common schools back in ow Englaud states. But our district schools are good enough today (and if they are not, they ought to be) foc any man’s child. Just think of 15—70 per cent of the children of Nebraska getalitho education they ever yet in school while they are iu tho aistrict schouls, It ought ot 10 be so, but it 18. This is u long, hard life that we have to live. 1t's a hard fignt from start to finish with most of us. Just think of a farmer taking his boy by the hand and saving, ‘My son, tbere is a long, difficult ana dao- gorous rond that you must travel, and you will have to go most of the way without my help. Just come into the house and I will give you a soupbone and a crust of bread before you start.’ 1t's an Absolute Necessity. “In these days of fierce commercial strife the 1gnorant man is hardly as independent or as much in demand as the horse. The com- mon _laborer needs a keen intellect and well developed brain that he may bring thonght, to bear upon his work. General educa- tion has been the greatest emanci- ator the human race has ever known. We have proven this by the establishment of the public schools, the graded schools, the high schools and colleges. We have proved it by our universities and our Chautauqua circlos. L am glad to say that our supreme court has upon several occasions decided that the high schools of our country were a legitimate part of the public schools. *‘But what is the country lada and lass to do when they finish the course at the district schools? If they come to the city they must pay tuition, and even then they can only entor the graded schools of the city by the kinduess and permission of your board of education. A state systom should be a free system. 1 hope that somoe duy we will have the good old fashioned county academy wheroe country boys and girls can continue their studies witnout paying tuition fo: ihe priviloge,” Public Apathy Deplored. The chancellor then went on to explain how indifferant the people of Nebraska were with regard to the State umversity. He re. lated soveral ludicrous ineldents golug to show that even memoers of the legislature were ignoraut of the workiugs of the univer- sity. One momber of the legislature had complained to him that the regents never roported the profits on the board of the nuts, Toat's so,”’ smd tho chancellor, “und sinco you sooik of it, 1 am reminded that the speaker of tha last house did not raport the prolits on the board of the mombers,’’ *But what has the speaker of the house to do with tho Board of Members{” asked the legisiator who was Working tp & case on the regents. Just as much as the rogents of the uni- versity have to do witn the board of the students,” replied the chancellor. *That memoer of the logislature,” he con- tinued, *‘thought that several of our uni- versity buildings were used for sleeping apartments aud dining rooms. He did not know that the university has pever boarded a solitary student, aud you he has become convinced that the regents were outrage- ously dishonest because thoy had not ported tho profits on oard bills.” The chancellor thought the peoplo of Ne- uvraska should take a deoper interest in the university since they spent $100,000 u year in maintainiog the university. Good Advice to the Tenchers, Turnlng then to the subject of tho address, the chancellor gave vhe teachers some excel: lent advice. . Ho counsolled them uot to worry or fret about apparent failures, but to bear heroically all their tasks. “Ninety percentofall thetroubles you have you never have,” said the chancellor. **You imagine you have a great deal of trouble in your work that you really never meet, You ust have some trouble. It would be a poor picture that had nothing in it but white, ‘Lhe verson who has no tear in bis eyo will tave no raimbow in his heart.” Ho said there were fewer absolute failures in the teachers’ profession thanin almost any other calling in life. He touched upon the thousand and one thiogs thar meet and perplex the teachier and had some excellent Bdvice upon overy point. He said salaries were low, but 1f those who were engaged in teaching ' wero dissatisfied thoy could do somothing eise. Kvery teacher shouid en- deavor to do the very " best he or sho could uuder all circumstances, resting assured that there were some school boards that could not be satisfied and there were some tuings that could not bedone. Like the Sunday school boy who asked bis wother if the Lord could make the 2-year-old colt in & minute, He was assured that the Lord could accomp- lish this rather marvelous feat if Heo wished to.

AUGUST 13, 1892, ANARCHISTS ~ AFTER Another Plot Discovered to Kill the Chair- man of the Oarnegie Company. FRICK AARONSTAMME TO BE THE ASSASSIN But the Police Are on His Trail and Will Arrest Mim on Sight — Other Oficials of the Stecl Com= pany Worrled, Preranvne, Pa, Aug. 12.—Tho Pittsburg Post publishes a story this morning to the offect that the police have discovered another anarchistic plot to assassinate H. C. Frick, the chairman of the Carnegie Steel company, who was shot by Bergman threo weeks ago. The inteoded assassin 1s the anarchist, Aaronstamme of New York, who isa close friend of Bergman and Emma Goldman, Aaronstamme has been in the city for sov- eral days and it is thought he is waiting for a favorable opportunity to kill his vietim. Ho1s said to resemble Borgman very much and is armea with a revolver in one pocket of bhis coat and & dynamite bomb in tue other, Tho plot was hatohed in Vienna and was given to the New York polive by Vice Consul Eberhardt of Austria. The informa- tlon was given o Mr. Klberhardt by an Aus- trian, who arrived in New York rocently with letters from the high police oficials of Vienua, stating that the Austrian’s story could ve relied upon, The New Yort police at once notified tho Pittsburg authorities and a close watch for Aaronstammo is being kept about all the an- archists’ resorts. The police have a good do- scription of the fellow and will arrest him on sight.
