o g G t ——— e ANXIOUS 70 GET 18T DEBY | Buperintendent of the Norfolk Asylam Die- counting a Distant Defioit, HIS APPROPRIATION 1S BARELY TOUCHED Appeal to the State Board of Pablle Tands #nd Bolldings Drings Some Good Advice In Retarn—Other Lincoln News, LixooLy, July 21.—[Speeial to Tne Bee.| saslon about the sta'e the superintendent of the Norfoik Insaneasylumgs evincing too great an anxioty to run into deBt so early in the bienuial fiscal period. - Ho has written a very plain tive lettor to the State Board of Public Lands and Buildings, in which he draws a most dismal picturo of the finances of the institution. He complains that he has been compelled to reduce his pay roll and inti mates that a great many of the patients will have to be rcturned to the counties from whence thoy came, in order that tho stato may come out even on its appropriation. He winds up his touching appeal for sympathy by asking the board whether he had better run wto debt. The State *Board of Public Lands and Buildings has very properly informed the Norfolk superintendent that he must on no account go into debt to maintain the institu- tion. In other words, he is expected to do Just what the legislature intended that he should do—conduct the institution upon an economical basis and reduce expenses o the minimum, The legislature appropriated 53,000 for the maintenance of the institu- tion for the two years commencing April 1 of the present year, This is a decrease of $20,- 400 from the appropriation of two years ago, and it may be possible that the end of the fiscal period will show that the amount is o0 small; but from the present state of the asylum’s finances it looks as if the Norfolk superintendent {s frightencd before he gets into the woods, ©a of the Several ¥aud: An oxamination of the appropriation book shows that while he is allowed £5,000 for his own salary, he has drawn but $141.13 on the new aporopriation. So, personally he is all riecht, The decision of the supreme ¢ has enabled the auditor to va upon the old hospital fund, there being a con- siderable amount of money yet remaining unexpended in th Consequently it has not been ned to zo into the regular appropriation very extensively. On tho fuel and light fund the appropriation has bec: reduced by £571.20 and there was $12, the fund igin y when the accouns w open The bo wally $30,000, has been ton leaving a balance of something like & be dfawn upon before poverty stares the Norfolk asylum in the face. The appropriation for drugs, cte., is un- touched, and so is that for furniture and bedding, carpets and curtains. Of the £00 set aside for books and stationery, $13.25 has by expended, leaving a liberal margin for the nce of the two years. The music and amusement fund is still untouched. Out of $500 for rsand improvements, $81.95 has been expended. The telegraph, tele- phone and postage fund has been dipped into to the extent of $U1.32, leaving about 400 for the superintendent to draw upon. he superintendent pays $100 per year for his telephone rental, while the churge tothe business men of Norfolk is but &8 ver year, and there is a lively suspicion that he might secur reduction in this expense, Not a single fund has been exhausted, and in the light of this fact the superintendent's request for permission to involve the state in debt comes a little early in the day. Specinl Rutes Abolished, ' The State Board of Transportation today received an official notice from the manager of the B. & M. railroad to the effect that all freight tariffs, bllling rates or special rates of any kind applying between points in Ne- braska on that lino within the state of Ne- braska will expire July 21. The gencral manager further informs the board that tho tarifls in accordance with the Nebraska maximum rate law, effective on August 1, will be propared and mailed to all agents at an early date. The effect of the order witl bo to wipe out all special tariffs heretofore enjoyed by ship- pers in Lincoln, Fremont, Beatrice and other interior points ' in the state. The special commodity rates will likewise bo effected, and the order will fall especially heavy upon the beet sugar men of Grand Island and Nor- folk, the brick manufacturers, paper mills at Lincoln, sand shippors, and the starch and canuing factories and ' the Kearney cotton mill. In this connection it may be stated that the raitroad bill prepared and introduced by the late Senator Clarke of Douglas county contained a provision which would secure to the manufacturers of beet sugar, tw a continuation of the favorable terms which they had always enjoyed. Clarke's bill was killed by the legislature, however, and this clause, which would undoubtedly have been of great value to Nebraska manufacturers, was killed with it. Something of & Complication, Shortly after the Farmers Stato bank at Shubert failed the supreme court issued an order directing the bink to show cause on the 20th inst. why the bank should not be placed in tho hands of a receiverand its itiol business wound up in accordance with the law. George W. Goodell hud been named as y receiver and had taken pos ig the further uction of the court. 1 the meantime the creditors had attached roperty owned by the absconding ud the attorney general’s ofice hud taken steps to provent the depositors from losing anything by the attachment. Yestor- day tho titie in which the bank could show eausa why n recoiver should not be apvointed expired, but Attorney Frank Martin of Falls City went ore Chief Justico Maxwell at Fremont and secured an_exton- sion of time until August 1. Before the at- torney general's ofice could learn of thd fact, however, it had prepared the papers to contest the attuchment proceedings insti- tuted against the bank. The attachment case comes up for hearing on the 24th, before thoe legal department of the state protect the interests of the depositors a per- manent receiver must be appointea The action of the chief justico has complicated tho matter to a cousiderable extent, The order of the chief justice extending the time unul August 1 was filed with the clerk of the supreme court at noon today. It is based upon an aflidavit of Frank Martin, attorney for the stockholders of the bauk. who intimates by the first of the next month he will either be able to show that a re- ceiver is unnecessary or thut some other ro- ceiver other than the one already appoluted tewporarily should be appointed, Gossip At the Stato House, Auditor Moore started for Chicago this afternoon to investigate the Neb hibit.

R McKinney of Arapahoe and H. J.

Two Douglas county cases were filed with the clerk of the supreme court this after- noon, One s entitled KEmma L. Van Etten agdinst ‘Dell R Edwards, and the other Henry Lingonuer against G. 8. Ambler, The case of the City of Kearney against Mrs. Louisa Smith was filed iu the’ supreme sourt this afterncon. Mrs. Smith fell through & defective sidewalk in Kearney some time since and was dawaged o the e: Lent of $583. She sued the Cottou city for that wodest amount and the jury gave her a0 even $450. She is perfectly satisfied Lo accept the amount in lieu of all claims, but the city proposes Lo see what the supreme court will do for it before iv makes & final settloment. A.

Lizzie Green was brought before Judge Waters this morning on a chargoe of assault, preferred by ono Hattio Mack, another denizen of the bottoms. Hattie was promptly on hand before court convened, but when the caso was called she had disappeared. Aftor waiting some time the judge dis- charged Lizzio. William Smith made his periodical ap- pearance in police court this morning, having been hauled up for drunkenness, Ho aded that the death of his wife had driven him to drink, but he had already fooled the judge with the excuse too many times and he was put back in the cooler until he could raise a fine, amounting to something like $8.70 Will Buenger was arrested with a large sack full of cigarettes, He claimed that he found them on the state house steps, but as none of the stato house employes are known 1o use the articlo the Judge remanded tho young man back to a celi pending an investi- gation. He was rather well dressed, did not look enough like a dude to the judge in the beliel that he was 10 the possession of so many once. Charlie Hart was given a hearing this morning and offercd his liberty provided he would tell the court who and where his father was. He refused, saying that he would rather o to the penitentiary than to disgrace his parents. He was fined &30 and costs, which was equivalent 1o a juil sen- tence of ten days.

W, Voaa President Central Labor Suing the Stockholders. K. K. Hayden, receiver of the C: tional bank, this afternoon commenced suit against John W. Latham, one of the stock- nolders, for $10,000, Mr. Latham owning stock in that amoint. Suit was also brought to recover £,000 due from Latham to the bank. Attachments were sworn out on the property of the defendart both in Lincoln and York county. The receiver also com- menced suit to recovor $3,700 from the estate of John J.

The pavers are ai work on East O street, on k' street from Seveateenth street to Twentieth and on L street between Sixth and Eighch streets. ‘The bonds to pay for the paving have not yot been sold, but the contractors are gong ahead with the work, being pe fectly willing to take their chances in go ting their pay. The city sottles with them by certificates of the amounts due them from time to time, and these certificates are taken at a slight discount by local capital- ists. In this way Lincoln has solved a prob- lem which is prodding the wits of tho au- thorities in other cities. The public spirit of local capitalists alone has enabled the city to continue the work of public improvement in spite of the financial depression.

Two Citizens of Lincoln Express Indignation at OfMeml Corruption. Throughout the recent legislative session and impeachment trial at Lincoln Tk Bem was compelled to indulge in plain talk con- cerning the insufferable conditions which made possible the corrupt raids upon the stato treasury. The Lincoln Journal and Call, two pavers pledged for the protection and defense of the Capital city ringsters, condemned Tue BEE'S utterances and con- strued them as attacks upon the good people of that ctty as well as upon the political plun- derers. Tue Bek all the while, however, was in receipt of assurances from somo of the best men of Lincoln that its course was approved and spplauded. Even to this day letters are being receivod from those whose Indignation rises to fever heat at the political conditions now existing in Lancaster county. Two such lotters we reproduce today. If the newspapers above referrod to imagine that their policy of sup- ng news and apologizing for unfaithful ofticials meets the endorsement of the aver- ago taxpayer of Lincoln, lot them read these burning protests In Detiance ot Justice, Neb., July 14.—To the Editor of Tue Bee: 1 believe you are entitled toa great amount of commendation for your stand throughout the impeachment business and it seems as everything falls short of honest manliness here, in defiance of justice. That prince of scoundrels that has stolen this bank clean has by the useof that monoy manipulated and” wheedled every- thing in his own favor, thro gh the many ramincations of corruption that he be al- lowed to confess to the minor charges of the indictment, and now the high authoritiss nave been trying to find some easy place for him to serve out his term, under the a: sumed idea of helping the poor depositors The only thing that he can do to help them is to bring out'of its hiding place the stolen mouey and pay it out to them. He is, and has been for years, the greatest corruptor of parties and officials this part of the covn- try has had, and his hand haih not lost its cunning yet. Now comes the next part of the program, when the state through its bondsmen will endeavor to recover its lost funds. You are right when you state that it will be lost to the stato of Nebraska. We have three law- yers in this place that are known to be *han- dlers of juries,” and after their work is done the trial then 1s a farce, either for murder or anything where large money is at stake. Can you nov get on these villains and in some way break partially the infamous cor- ruptionists that this capital Is infested with? You are the only man so far that has tried to stand up for the right in these matters, except Judge Maxwell. Now the farce will goou. They have more money than Betts, and will certainly get out of it without any trouble. If these things denote our high civiliza- tion and superiority to other nations, it seems o reverse the order of things and we shall ere long want a stronger and more efti- cient government, JusTICE, Lascon: The Lincoln Press Muzzle LixcoLy, Neb., July 18. —To the Editor of Tue Beg: As you are the only editor that dare go for the thieves, I wondered if you would not like some pointers in the Mosher failure.

Directors and stockholders refusing to pay their assessments and give relief to 800 Lincoln sufferers | Directors cursing Mosher and not daring Lo even prosecute him ! Dircctors and stockholders putting then selves on a level with Mosher and Ouatealt A Christian city permitting its buildors to be robbed and sit quietly by and not offer assistance !

Stromburg, George J. Harder and T. W. Hotchkiss, The two wmajors thought the list suf- ciently large without Mr. Winspear's ap- bointments and they refused to concur in them. Tho lists of both majors were ap- proved and Mr. Winspear magnanimously voted in the affirmative, The Barber Asphalt reserves were allowed. They were for pav- ing upon which the five years guarantco has expired and the 15 per cent reserve being due. The bills were as follow: For 1885, $0,- 100,83 1856,810, 319,64 :1887,815,333.47. Also $10,- 848,00, being 15 per cent rescrve hold, which the company desires to replace with bonds. ‘The repair claim of the company for the first 8ix months of tho year, amounting to #),110.48, was presented, but action de- ferred uatil the next meeting. The claim has been_referred to City Engineer Rose- water and he submitted his repost. M owater passed judgment as follow _“So far as the claim is concerr.ed, T con- sider it not justifi Under the contract of the Barber ‘Asphalt’ Paving company with the city to maintain the asphalt pavements ingood condition it is presumed that such streots are to be kept in con il dition through the year and not reps spasmodically,when the streets are renders able. "~ An examination of the str d in this contract in tho first part of the month and again on tho 20th, shows many of the streets in_exceedingly bad con- dition, with large holes worn down to the concrete, and in many places with stagnant water upon the street, disfiguring its appear- uce, besides creating an unsanitary condition in its neighborhood. On the greater por- tion of the area embraced in the bill under their contract very little, if any, repairs of work have been done. The least that should be done is a deduction from the bill for so much of such streots as has been left un- d, to the detriment of the street and public inverest. 1 have marked crosses op- posite such items as in my ovinion should be rejected, and the figures one-half opposite such where one-half the bill should be de- ducted. These will aggregate 955, that amount is the least that should ducted from the account submitted, H.
