] T~ — IN THE INTERESTS OF 0)AH Oommercial Olub and Board of Trade May Oombine Their Forces, | ACTION MAY BE TAKEN TOMORROW Full Text of the Resolntions Which Will Be Presented as the Terms of the Unlon ome | —Step that Has Bee plated for Some Time, Mr. W. A. L. Gibbon's presidency of both the Commercial club and the Board ot Trade has for al months hinted at a consummation which efforts will now be made to bring about without further delay. The plan Is that the Commercial club shall absorb the membership of the Board ot Trade. Yesterday a member of the latter body prepared a set of resolutions which will be presented to the Board of Trade at a meeting to be held tomorrow. The resolutions authorize the payment from Board of Trade funds of $5 quarterly for each and every member of the Board of Trade, to be paid Into the coffers of the Commercial club—each member of the for- mer to recelve in return a certificate of membership in the nmerclal club. This money aggrogates quite a sum. It means $1,000 quarterly to boost the finances of the Commercial club, The cash is to bo pald from the ntt income of the Board of Trade after all other expenses are pald. The following I8 the full text of the reso- lutions which will be presentcd Whereas, The Omaha Board of Trade s a corporate body created for cific work under the laws of the state of Nebraska, and Whereas, The sald specific work, as de- fined in article xi of the articles of incorpors ation, read as follows: “The object and purpose of sald corp tion shall be to promote the comn manufacturing and general fntor, ity of Omaha, and establish and financial exchanges therei: shall have and exercise corporate pow- #rs as may be neccessary and convenient to that end, including the power to acquire and hold siuch real estate as may bo nece pary to accomplish its corporate purposes and Whereas, The revenues now being derived from the real estate possession of the board interest cost of are sufficiently large to meet the on the bonded indebtedn snaintaining insuran and leave a surplus; thereforg, be it Resolved, That tho net income of the Board of Trade, after paying all ncccessary and legitimate expenses for interest, taxes, gaintenance, salarics, etc., be disposed of as Mlows: First, To more perfectly carry out the ob- Jact of the corporation as set forth in arti- clo 1i of articles of incorporation, that the sum of five dollars (§5) quarterly for each and every member of the Board of Trade in good standing be pald to the Commercial club of Omaha.to aid sald club in the work of upbuilding and developing Omaha's com- mercial and Industrial interests through its organized bureaus and officers. Second, Any surplus accruing after the aforesaid disbursements shall be placed in a sinking fund in some bank to be selected by the finance committee, for the purpose of paying off the bonded indebtedness; and be it further Resolved, That this sald quarterly dis- bursement and deposit shall be made com- mencing April 1 next, July 1, October 1, etc., and to continue the same each succeeding quarter as long as the Commerclal club shall, in the judgment of the board of directors of the Board of Trade, continue to maintain its present high standard of organization and vigorous work; and be it further Resolved, That this contribution of five dollars ($5) per quarter aforesaid shall be conditional ‘on each member of the Board of Trade in good standing receiving a certificate of membership from the Commercial club, entitling said member to all the privileges and advantages of said club and to continue @s long as sald quarterly contribution as aforesald shall be paid by the Board of Trade to the Commercial club. This means a gift of $3,000 for the year 1894 to the Commercial club. Membership eertificates in the latter cost $20. By pay- ing for these quarterly, In $5 installments, each of the 200 members of the Board of Trade become the full-fledged possessors of @ plece of paper with gilt seal thereon and bearing the signatures of the officers of the Commercial club. e MAKING A COMPROMISE. ©nly Hope for the Pontoon Bridge Over the Missouri at Sioux City. Dixon, Dakota and Thurston county people, who have urged congress to pass the bill al- lowing the construction of a pontoon bridge across the Missourl river at Sioux City, will be interested in this letter from Senator Manderson: UNITED STATES SENATE, WASHING- TON, March 2.—Your favor of recent date 18 received. Tho two bills 1 regard to the extension of time to the permanent bridge to be built at Sioux City, Ia., and chartering the pontoon bridge which now exists, passed the house of representatives without any seeming to know very much about th ‘When they reached the senate, however, there was at once a great deal of disturb- ance, not only in the senate committee on commerce, but among senators on the floor. The lowa senators and a large number of eastern sonators, who represent constituents who have loaned money to~the permanent bridge company, object to the charter of the pontoon bridge for the reason that it is an obstruction to navigation, and that it deopardizes thelr efforts to obtain money to finish the pormanent bridge. So much dis- turbance has been raised over the matter that it will be impossible to pass the two bills as they como from the house. As an adjustment of the matter I have proposed that the two years extension of time be granted to the permanent bridge company, and that the existing pontoon bridge (which 1s likely to be removed at any time, not hav- ing been chartered by cougress), be char tered by the bill to remain until the perma- nent bridge is completed and In operation, The bill in this form can probably pass, but without such amendment it would fall. This seems to me to be a fair and judiclous cem- promise of the matter, and has been sub- stantially agreed upon between Representa- tive Meiklejohn, Senator Allen and myself. CHARLES F. MANDERSON. Ground In This Wyo- Distriet Soon to Start. Wyo., March 9.—(Special to The Teparations are being made to com- mence work at the Four Mile gold placer mining district within the next two weeks, J. D. Hunt, representing the owners of what 18 known as the “burlap process” for saving fine gold is here at work on the hoxes, and thinks that the process will save all the gold in this district. If such proves to be the case this will make one of the richest placer flolds in the west, there being a scope of country thirty miles wide by forty or forty- five miles long that carries gold n the sand, from grass roots to bedrock, which in some instancos is elghteen foet below the surface, One pecullarity of the gold found in the Four Mile district is, while some of it is very fine, it 18 not what is known as flake or flour g0ld, but when the colors are placed under 88 they show distinetly of a lumpy na- ture. Frank A. Hinman, superintendent and re: dent manager for the Four Mile Placer Min- Ing company, 1s busy getting material on the ground, and told the writer that if the weather continued warm they would be ready to commenca work in a week's time. The snow is disappearing very fast all dver the placer grounds, and it is believed that the camp will be in active operations t least a month earlier than last year. William Nelson, who has some extra good elaims just above the Four Mile company’s, took out lumber last week to bulld sluice boxes, and will take advantage of the melt- ing snow in the district to commence work.
