WILLINGBUTDON'T KNOW HOW City Officials Don't See Funds in fight for Oleaning the Oity. WHAT PHYSICIANS SAY OF THE OUTLOOK Cholera Is Almost Sure to Come and in Cleaniiness 1s the Only Safety Raising tu the Worl, Plans for for The pr ng sentiment in all branches of the muuicipal governmont 1s that the city necds a general cleaning up, and that it the money necessary to accomplish it cannot be raised in one way it should bo in another. amount required is variously estimated at from £5,000 to $10,000, and the general fund 18 50 depioted at the present timo that it is sald to b out of the question 1o securs it thero, That, however, doos not change tho exist- ing stats of affairs about the city, vut ouly demonstrates the nocessity for raisiag the money some other Wiy, Mavor Bemis said yesterday that there was no room for doubt that a thorough gon- eral cleaning of the city was the only thing that would put it 1n 8hapo to underzo a siego of the cholera with any degreo of public safety, as tho present condition of certain quarters would insuro a frightiul mortality rate. Heo thought that it would requiro from 5,000 to #10,000 to do the work as it should be done. How the money was to bo raised he could nov say. Ho did not kuo w whether the council had a legal right to mako an ap- propriation for the purposo or not. It had ‘made an appropriation for a proper observ- ance of the Fourth of July, and the peoply had not kicked about it, aud he was inclined 10 think that populur demand might perhaps make similar action all right in this case. It had been suggested to him that the wealthy mea of the city might solve tho question if thoy chose to do so, by guarantecing the necessary amount, and trusting to Provi- dence and the next legisiaturo to reimburse them. Popular subscription migat be the means of secuving the accomplishmont of the work, but he could not seo how it was to bo douein any othor way. Legal Aspects of the Case. Judge Ferguson said that he could not ex- press an opinion as to the logality of any act of the council in making an appropriation for this purpose, as te was uov fumiliar with the city charter, and furthermoro was unwilling 10 express an opinion 1 advanco on 4 matter that might come beforo him at some future time in his judicial While he kuew nothing of the lozal aspect of the case, and therofore could not express himself on that point, he said that ho was very much in favor uf taking il steps possible to prevent disease, He had cleaned up his own pron- 1805 und thought that the health matter hua looked after very generally in his hoped that & public wuing wonld ot be overlook City Attoruey Couuell expressed opinion that tha council could make uu ap propriation if they bhad anythiog to apn but said that unfortunately the con- dition’ of the general fund uded the possibility of securing any assistance from that source. His idea wus that the bost way of cleauiug up the city was to have every man and womun self-constituted a committeo of one to see that their own premises we put in good condition, nnd if tuat was done the city would be put in tip-top shape. He belioved that the polico should arrest ail property owners who did not clean up their premises, and see that they were prosecuted and fined, Dr. Clarke Gapen, ex-commissioner of health, said that iv would require £10,000 to clean the city as it should be done. It would require that amount if the money was placed where 1t should be and expended judiciously, but not if a day’s wages was paid for halfa day’s work. Cholera’s Coming Sure, “If tho cholera comes to Omaha, and 1 have no doubt tnat it will,” suid the doctor, “the first pluces that it will strike are the wretchedly filtny quarters 1 the eastern purt of 1he city. It is in just such loculities as those that the disease thrives and increases, and it is there, too, that its mortality is the greatest, 1 do not expect to see any greut rin of the ciolera 1n this country this year, and for that matter [ do not thivk that it is half as bad in Russia as it will be next year. It nover has as big a rup the first year as it doos tho second. [t Bcems Lo sort of break the ice, so to speuls, the first season aud get things iu readiness, aud then it cuts looso tuo following yoar and gots 1n 1ts hurdest work. The troublo is going 0 be with tho clothing of ymmigrants from the fnfected districts. It will bo almost impos- sible to disinfect it all thoroughly, and the tho disease will be brougnt on vessels on which it did not munifest itself at all. Cuolera is not so fatul as diphtheria, but it 15 not so common and people are more afraid of it The treatment for it is w give the salines, as the teudency of the diseaso is to take the serum out of the blood, and dry up the life fluig.”” Dr. R. Towne, aeputy hoalth, said that much has boen dono in the way of cleaning up the city, but that much still remaluoed to do: that the garbage piles had been gotten in very fainshape, but that there was still a great deal of manure left fn tho alleys, and that there were many wells that ought to bo condemued and filled up. He thought that £10,000 would put tho city in first rate condition. He said that the con dition down ou the south bottom was indeed frightiul, fully as baa as shown Tue Bek, aud he was cortain that there would be an awful nest of cholera there shorily after its arrival ia the city, Plenie Awaiting the Piague, “'Cholera does not thrive in a dry locality,” he said, “butl down there where it Is Jow. dump aud wer, it would develop alarmingly Who personal bubits of the denizens of the slums arve so fiithy that 1t would 1wvite the disease, and afier 1L gotamong them it wonld curry them off by scores, us thoir systems are ot in condition to successiully combat it 1 don't see how it is possible to koep out tho diseusc, as in ordor to do s0a perfect sys- tem of quarantine and thofough disinfectio of o'l clothing must be kept up until winter Aets in next year. Itis almost sure 10 get iu, and the thing for us to do, therefore, 18 to have our city so clean and ail our surroundiugs #o0 uunfavorable for disesso that we ean provent its spread in our midst.

The trouble with us Lins been uod is, tho ifoard of Healih has 0o authority (o go'nhead and ao cleaniug and charge it against the proporty as u tux or specinl assessment. A resoluiion has now been prepared and will bo introduced at tho next meetiug of the city council that will give us power 80 far as cut ting weeds is concerned.

Rapresentatives of tho city and the Union Pacitic officials met yosterday at the city engineor’s offico in conferonco upon points of 1 the municipality and the ratlroad looking o a completion of the union depot. There were preseat Presideat Kim- vailof the union depot company, Gooeral Solicitor Thurston of the Union Pacitie, City Attorney Conuell, City Eugineer IRosewater, ox-Mayor Charles H. Brown, Councilmen 5ol Prineo, Peter Bisassor and 134 Howeil, City Attorney Connell contended that the railrond had on many past oceasions violated the ordinauces under which they hold lands in tho city of Omaha, to which Mr. Thurston entered a general denial. He stated that the courts were open and had boen open for years to test the matters at issue and ho had no hesituncy in saying that the railroad bad performed every contvact which it had agreed to. Then cawe up the Old Man of the Sea—the bridgo question and the attitude of the Union Pacific company toward the other roads attemptiug to enter the city of Omana via the Uvlon Pacific bridge. Mr. Conneil then read from the grant giving to the Union Puacitic the right of terminals provided the company would bring other trains of other roads across the briuge, at compensation mutually agreed upon. — This Mr. Thurston said had been done vy his road as the papers iu the Rock Island and Milwaukee would show. Thurston States the Tasue, Mr. Thurston said in a running talk: *Tho situation ubout the union depot is this. We al ieed to allow all roads desiring admis- sion Lo come in on the ground fioor for c¢orm- peosation, and wo gavp the building of tuis depot to an independent company. At the outsct we were met by the provosition that wao could not convey the aepot grounds to an independent compuny. Of course we wero williug to allow the Burlington company to build a depol on our grounds, but thay \were uotinclined to do so. 1t the ¢ity of Omaha wants a union depot the title to the ground will have to be cleared up. We can go ahead and fix up depot there that will be commensurate with our needs. \We ean shut the BBurlington out under our franchise. We donot ask anythng at the bands of the city, but if the city is_desirous to buve the aepot comploted the course to be pursued is very plain.” Mr. Connell stated that while he was not authorized to make nny proposition he hud made a proposition to Mr. Kelley in order to et at some basis to work upon “T'ho city to waive its call for the bridge toll ion bonde.

Want the Title Cleared, As to the accretion ho was willing to give the city the land, reserving a reasonable right-of-way through it which is given by ordinance. But to do that he wanted the city to confira the titla to the bot- tom lands, that while he had no doubt about the title vesting in the com puny he wanted to avoid the periodical cry through the newspapers that the Union Pucific was holding land that it had no title to. Mr. Connell generally thousht the proposi- tion u fair oue, although ho exprassed a doubt about tho bottom lands and rticu- larly the blocks L, N, O, P, Q, as to con- firmine the titie of the road in these. Mr. Thurston repliod that his people had always these blocks in view for future use, but thought that they were not the key to the situation. These “blocks were conveyed in 1803, with a proviso that “in case the east- orn terininus of the Union Pacific railroad on the Missour: river stall not ba locatea ana continued within one and a quarter miles of IFarnam street in said eity of Omaha, then, and iu that case, tho vrémises hereby con- veyed shall revert to, und become reinvested in said city.” Mr. Brown in speaking as a citizen said that he understood Mr. Thurstow’s proposi- tion to mean that the title to the depot grounds be cleared up by beiug quit-claimed to the Union Pacific railroad, in order to avold the conditions of the Saunders deed. He thought that to quit-claim would hardly be a business proposition, for ho heid that the stipulations in the Saunders deed were vital to the interests of the ocity. He said he would not make a contract or in anywise give to the railroad auy forleiture of right which would work aguinst the best iuterests of the peoplo. Ho coutonded thal to divest the deed of its reversiduary clause would simply allow the railroad companuy to do what they pleased with the grounds. Ho thought the vasiest way out of the dificulty would be for the Union Pacific and Burlington to uvite iz of its call for the depot 4 depot company. Livil Mr. Thurston, howeser, cracked by saying that financial réasous vent the Lwo companios from building a depot s originally planned. He said that Lis people did not” propose 1o ercet a depot and furnish erounds for other roads unless compensated, thut under the Saunders deed the Uuion Pacific was not compelled to cou- etruct a depot for use other than itself.
