This he was instructed to do at the last meeting of the council. It is doubtful if the ordinance will pass. While there are several members of the council who feel that the $100 occupa- tlon tax fs a burden on the liquor dealers, they say that the city needs the money so badly that they will not vote to repeal the ordinance. In case the ordinance does pass Mayor Johnson has been heard to express himself that he would veto it, “It we don’t collect that occupation tax,” sald one councllman, “we won't be able to draw any salary before next September.’ The petition to the council to repeal the occupation tax ordinance was signed by all the saloon keepers and a good many cltizens If the money Is not rafsed In this way it will have to be assessed up against the tax- payers. The saloon men think that it is no more than right that this extra assessment should be knocked off. After the Car Line. Councilman Ed Conley s one of the most active and energetic members of that august body known as the city council. For some time Mr. Conley has been earnestly endeavor- ing to get the street car company to cross (he Q street viaduct with its line. One ob- Jection raised by the street car company was that the viaduct was not sufficlently strong to hold the cars. At the last meeting Mr. Conley sent through a resolution in structing the city engineer to make a thorough inspection of the viaduct for the purpose of learning whether or not it was strong enough to support the cars. In case the engineer reports favorable it is certain that Mr. Conley will make a fight for his neighbors over in the Third ward that will either bring them street car service or a flat refusal from the street car company. - Result of u Quar, Gus Rodzuwait was arrested yesterday morning upon the charge of committing an assault upon Anton Shranck.

This is the outcome of a conference held a short time ago by sev FOR INTER eral prominent financiers. At the confer- ence the following statement of principles was prepared by a committee: “The com- mittee fc formed for the pur- pose of promoting _the establish- nent of international bimetallism upon the gengral plan of the Latin union, but with a broader basis. Those concerned in the movemeht, while earnestly opposed to the free coinage of silver, or any increaso of silver by this country independent of in- ternational action and agreement, believe that the repeal of the purchase clause of the Sherman act affords a fitting and fortunate opportinity for advancing the cause of inter- pational bimetallism. They belleve the day is not far distant when the nocessitles of commerce will compel the international use SLRIveE kel [uvj kol LN theFoureerioy throughout the world, Franklin H.

Miss Efe M Stepfather's Cru tehell Tolls a Sad t Talo of n Miss Effic Mitchell, a handsome young lady of Albright is at the police station. About two weeks ago, according to the young lady's story, her mother left home mysteriously and has not been seen or heard of since. She has lived alone with her stepfather, a blacksmith, in the hope that her mother would return, She thought the conduct of her mother was due to the cruel treatment of her husband. A few days ago the blacksmith broke his wrist and has been unabie to work, and this added to his surly disposition, so that life with him was anything but pleasant. Last night she had prepared the supper for both of them and was waiting for her father, who had been away all day, to return. About 7 o'clock he did so, but was very drunk. He first commenced to find fault with the supper, and upon the young woman say- ing it was the best there was in the house, he arose from the table and slapping her in the face drove her from the house and told her never to return. She came to Omaha in search of a friend with whom to remain over night, but the friend was not at home. She roamed about till nearly midnight when she applied to an officer at Sixteenth and Cuming streets nd he told her to go to the station and she would be provided with a place to sleep. e —— TELEGRAPHIC BRIEFS. strange A Qivision of Coxey home guards has been organized at Springfield, Mo.
