Crippling Important Departments, The charter in its present form will leave at least three of the most important funds of the city depleted after this year and there is no way by which money cin be covered into them. Unless provisions are made be- fore the legislature adjourns the Board of Health aad park commissioners pellea 5 close up shop and go out of business for \wo years and the city will not have a cent for the same period in the judgment fund. The levy for those funds has been made for this year and funds provided, but there is 1o provision in the charter as amended by the scnate committee and passed by the senate that gives the ci power to provide funds for their mainten- ance and when the present levy is exhausted the end is at hand. ~ The provisions creating the department of health, the Board of Park Commissioners and 'tho judgment fund remain ntact, but there is no way pointed out to provide cash forkeeping them up This state of affairs s due to the bungling work of the senate ¢gmmittee and thero is also a suspicion among members of the coun- cil that some Omaha Ten, who should be in better business, have placed a gentloman of cin the woodp ud that his lurking has had a great deal to do with those important provisions 'being omitted at this eritical juncture and just upon the eve of the time for the adjourniment of the legislature, When an explanationas offered as to how it suche fmportant funds have , the plea of oversight will be entered, and it caunot be well disputed, although there may gxist an opinion that something else caused the omission, Substitute Amendments.

The main object in holding a special meet- ing of the city council last night was that the members might from the Board of Public Works the names of the inspectors for the ensuing year. If these names had been handed in there would have been some confirmations or else some rejections, but as no list was sent up the whole matter went over until the next session. Chairman Birkhauser explained that the board had not held its meoting because he could not get a quorum. This acknowledge- ment was made in all sincerity and was because the chairman did not know that he had been tricked by those same associates ofhis. The facts are that the meeting of the board was booked for yesterday after noon, when it was intended to name the men, but it 80 happened that Mr. Furay was called to Lincoln and before going his co aborer, Mr. Balcombe, pledged his honor that hé would uot cast & vote for any in Jobs on Each coive spector. After making that pledge he studiously avoided attending the meoting. Before adjourning, however, the council called up and approved the $5.000 bond of the Sun Vapor Lighting company, the con- cern that has contracted to light the subur- ban districts with gasoline until January 1804. The surctics on the bond are the Standard Oil company and Luther Drake.
