8 CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS Wiley Cauces a De'ay in Action on the Electrio Lighting Bids, HE WANTED TIME FOR CONSULTATION Mayor Submits Name of Mr. Schurlg for City Electrician—Vetoes salary I in Fuvor of Rh and 1 Not Sustained. In accordance with the decision of the gen eral council committee on electric lights at | a meeting held yesterday afternoon no report was made to the council t night on the bids for electric lighting now In the hands of the committee, This was at the request of Mr. Wiley, who wished to consult the directory of the Thomson-Houston company in rd to cancelling the contract under which he is now furnishing light to the city on condition that he was awarded a new contract, The program of the Wiley councilmen was announced by Hascall point blank as soon as the door of the committee room was closed He sald that in his opinion the thing to do was to let the contract to Mr. Wiley for the balance of the fiscal year at his bid of $111.50 per light per year and then readvertise for bids for a longer period. The excuse for another readvertfsement was the proposition of the Western Electric company to ercct a plant and deed it to the city at the end of five years. Mr. Wiley's man_thought that they should readvertise for bids on that basis, s0 as to give Mr. Wiley a chance to bid on a similar proposition. The committee decided to recommend that the contract for the remainder of the year be let to Mr. Wiley. Cahn inquired It the Thomson-Houston company would not be willing to cancel its present contract for 100 lights, which runs to November 28, and take all the lights at the price mentioned in fts last bid. Mr. Wiley professed his entire fgnorance of what his company would be willing to do, but suggested that if the matter was allowed to go over for another week he would be better able to throw light on the subject. His suggestion was promptly acted on and the whole matter was post- poned for one week. At the meeting of the council last evening the following letter was read OMAHA, June 5.—Honorable Mayor and City Council, Omuha: Gentlemen—We de- sire to call your attention to the fact that our bid for clectric lights contains but o condition, and that i (hat we be given | mission, 'In the shape of 4 franchise, to enter upon the streets of Omaha and 'transact our business. Should your honorable hody pass the general electric franchise or- dinance now pending and the same be- come a law by the approval of his honor the mayor, we waive the only condition which was specified in ' object of this to cmphasize the fact that if gentlemen us the privilege by a special franchise or by the franci come In ity and bushies we are and willing and to in the contract and proc form the same. Our 1 reason for sending in this communication at this time I the state- ment made by the chairman of the commit- tee to which the bids were referred this afternoon to the effect that our proposition walving the ge I franchi ause of our bid was not legally binding upon us. If there remains any “doubt upon this point in the minds of any member of the council, we stand ready ve the same by binding oursclye y and abso- v to the terms of the franchise pub- 4, and which we presume your hono: will pass at its meeting tonight. cctfull 1ZENS BLECT MPANY, By Horton & Blackburn, Attorneys, SURPRISED THEM A LITTLE. Mayor Bemis sprang a surprise on some of the members by presenting the appoint- ment of Bdward F. Schurig as city elec- triclan. Bechel promptly moved that the appointment be referred to the committee on judiciary and the motion prevailed with- out discussion. The mayor submitted the following veto: 1 respectfully report that T have vetoed ftem No. G651 in the appropriation ordinance, the same being for the sum of $106.45 in favor of L. M. Rheem, and purporting to be salury for the month of May for the services of Mr. Rheem in taking charge of the electrical "department of the city of Omaha, for the reason that until the ap- pointment and confirmation of u city elec triclan, the office and property for the use of the' city electrician was placed in the custody of the superintendent of the city hall, who, up to the time that Mr. Rheem assumed to take charge of said office and property, was caring tor the same without charge to the city; and also especially for the reason that the employment or ap- pointment of Mr. Rheem to perform the duties of city electrician was wholly with- out authority and is absolutely void, and the city is in no manner liable to him for salary ‘for any pretended services he may have rendered. Specht wanted an opinion from the city at- torney as to whether the appointment of Mr. Rheem by the council was legal, but his request commanded no attention. The item was passed over the veto. Similar action was taken with the following veto: I return herewith, without my approval, an ordinance to amend ordinance No. 1791, entitled: *“An ordinance defining the duties of the city clectriclan,” ete. 1 have vetoed this ordinance for the reason that the ex- amining board created lerein, for the pur- pose of passing. upon the qualifications of applicants for li luns, does not appear to be properl stituted, Ac- cording to the ordinance this board shall be ‘composed of the city clectriciin, or other person in charge of said oflice, th superintendent of the ity fire and - fol.c alarm, and the cily gas inspector.” . At Jeast one member of this proposed board, the gas' Inspector, makes no pretension of belng an clectrician, and it would be ridiculous to make him a member of such a board. I believe that an \ining board should be created, but I recommena that the ordinance be %o amended as to provide that such board shall consist of the city electriclan and two expert triclans to be appointed by the mayor und council, the same as the board of en- gincers, In this way the board would b something more than a figurehead with the city electrician as the only motive pow The mayor's veto of the ordinance pro- viding for the opening of Mason strect from Twenty-fourth to Twenty-fifth street was sustained. The veto was on the ground that the property owners on the street had pro tested against the extension The item in the appropriation ordinance of $60 for the salary of Hugh S. Carpenter as engineer in the new library building was vefoed on the ground that the building was still unfinished and no engineer was needed The veto was not sustaine City Attorney Cornlsh was vacation during which Judge J. H. Macomber will perform the duties of his office. WINSPEAR'S PROTEST. Chairman Winspear of the Board of Pub- He Works presented a communication on the subject of retrenchmen He called attention to the fact that the clerical work in his office had been doubled during the present year, to say nothing of the Increase in the number of permits to be issued. The board had cut down expenses to the lowest possible point at which the work of the oity could be carried on, He suggested that the forces of the street commissioner and the sewer commissioner might be laid off one week In each month, A motion to refer called Haseall out with Dis twice told tale. He averred that he could rform the duties of the chairman of the ard, together with those of the two clerks, and still have time left in which to look after the rest of the board. He declared that the pouncil had determined to discharge one of the clorks and that the retrenchment should be effected in that way and in no other, The communication was finally placed on fle, Blds for constructing watering troughs were opered and referred A resolution directing the Elkhorn rail- road company to place a flagman at the Bherman aveiue crossing was referred The Board of Public Works was dirccted to tssue a permit to the Omaha Street Rail- way company to lay a double track on Plerce street, from Seventh to Tentk The committee on viaducts and rallways submitted the agreement between the rail roads and the city In regard to the neces sary repalrs to the Sixteenth street via- duct, and recommended that tho eity engi- neer be directed to prepare the plans for the work. Adopted. CITY HALL REPAIRS. 1 Zhe committee of the whole, to which was referred the communication of the mayor | releiive to the unsafe condition of the eity hall tower, recommended that John F. Coots be directed to make the necessary repairs under the direction of the building { Inspector at an expense not to exceed $500. The contemplated repairs consist In caulk- ing up the cracks in the stonework with | cement, laying a new floor and placing wire guards to prevent detached pleces of tile from falling on the heads of pedestrians The following ordinances were passed Levylng speclal tax for opening boulevard from Ames avenue to Parker tract; levying tax for paving Twenty-ninth strest from Hickory to Arbor street; declaring the neces- sity of grading Thirty-fifth street from Half Howard to James street; changing curb lines of various streets; ordering paving of Chi- cago street from Twenty-third to Twenty- fourth street; ordering paving of Corby stres from Sherman avenue to Twentleth street; rebating special paving taxes to property owners on Locust street; amending ordinance regulating excavations on streets and alleys. ———— Free ns Alr, Although long obstinately obstructed, free as air become the bowels when Hostet- ter's Stomach Bitters Is used to relieve and regulate them.

Afro-American Residents Want No Colored People's State Fair Hold. At a meeting of the Afro-American fdents of this city, held at the African Methodist Episcopal church Monday night, the following preambles and resolution were adopted; Whereas, It appears that certain indl- viduals, numely, A. D. White, 8. G. Ernest and J. 8. Bryant have advertised (hem- selves respectively as president, treasurer and secretary of what they term an Afro- American Fale assoclation and Whereas, The only legitimate and r 1 inference to be drawn from the language used in the published notices of the pro- posed fair, mentioned in their advertis ments, would be that the proposition of a fair of the kind described in. the notices above mentioned, had been publicly presented, discussed and endorsed by the colored people of this community, and that, in_accordance with such endorfement an organization had been formed, including the election of sald A. D. White us pr ident, 8. . Krnest as (reasurer, and J Bryant as secretary of such ovganizatio and Whereas, No such organization as implied In the notices published the press of this city and by posters has been effected in munity, nor have the colored people of thi nity been consulted fu wiy in ce to the matter; thereforc, be it olved, Thut the Afro-American res- idents of the city of Omahu regard the pro- pasal of A. D. \White, 8, G. Ernest and J, 8. Bryant to hold a fair In this city on the ard and 4th days of July next, lmiting the exhibitors at sall fair to colored people alone, to be extremely uawise and im- politic, and, under the circumstance 3 Culated to arouse suspicion as to the o tives of the instigators of the undertaking The discussion of the subject brought out the fact that the sentiment was unaninous in condemnation of the project of holding such a fair, all agreeing that it would resuit in a fizzle and make a laughing stock of th colored people. There was &n attempt to amend the resolution by emitting that part which reflected upon the motives of the three self-appointed officials, but it failed, i Bl L Pllls that cure sick headache: DeWitt's Little Barly Risers. i Golng East Today?

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, AGAINST THE DETECTIVES Police Commissioners Furnished With In- formation as a Basis of Inquiry. BIG BUNDLE OF AFFIDAVITS READ Sergeant Shoop and His Coliseum Deta Before the Board to Answer Clinrges of Disobedience and Drunkenness ~Testin n Brief. In response to a summons from the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners the other of The Bee appeared before that body last night with a number of afidavits and other testimony against certain members of the police and detective force to establish the truth of the editorial charges made against these men In this paper. All the members of the board were present, and after thoy were called to order it was decided to recelve Mr. Rosewater's statements in executive session, as it had been suggested by one of the commissioners that if the names of the witnesses and the nature of the charges were made public at present, before they could Investigate, the accused officers might try to subsidize a good many of the witnesses, as has been ‘done on pre- vious occasions. The board accordingly adjourned into secret sessfon and sat as a. sort. 'of grand Jury It took the members quife a while to listen to all the evidence which Mr. Rose- water had to offer, and in about an hour they came out into open session and took up the trial of Sergeant Shoop, accused by Clief Seavey of disobeying his special orders. It was also concluded to hear the evidence against Officers Arnold, Brady Bower and Clark, who were reported as ing been drinking with the Thurston Rifles on the occasion of their flag presentation on the night of May 28, Sergeant Shoop admitted disobeying the orders of the chief because he thought it necessary to leave several policemen at the Coliseum, although the chief had in- structed him to send the officers to thoir beats when the exercises of the evening at the Coliseum were over. He had becn asked to leave the officers by Captain Scharff of the Rifles and said to Captain Mostyn when he returned to the station at 3 o'clock that the guards were having a pretty good time out there. Mr. E. C. Hunt, reporter for The Bee, tes- tified that he was at the Coliseum in the carly morning when the disorder is alleged to have occurred, and that he believed all the officers had been drinking, while Brady and another whom he did not know were drunk. Several of the guards were also in this condition and some of them told Hunt that they were having a good time drinking beer and eating ice cream. Mr. Hunt said that Senator Lobeck and Mr. Neazy of the Pirst National bank had told him that their families were greatly disturbed late at night by shooting and the firing of guns In the Collseum. Lee Forby, corporal in the Rifles, said the beer was there, but he saw none of the policemen drinking, but the guards drank freely. Janitor Van Curan, Willlam Mardis, John Reed, Willlam Long, A. C Yostin and . E. Stockham gave similar testimony. The hearing will be resumed at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. ey A Child Enjoy The pleasant effect and perfect safety with which ladies may use the California liquid laxative, Syrup of Figs, and under all conditions, makes it their favorite remedy.

Gratifylng Reports Made at Thelr Monthly Meeting Yesterday After The Woman's Christian association held its last monthly meeting for the summer yesterday afternoon at the Commercial club rooms The treasurer read the monthly report The receipts aggregated $716.20 and the ex- penditures $451.74, leaving a balance of $264.46. This Is oxclusive of the receipts from the concert by Blind Tom. This con cert netted $50.75, and It was decided to use this sum to furnish the Young Women's home. The committee for the Young Women's lhome reported that $242.40 had been the re- celpts for the month, leaving a balance of $556 over the expenditures, against a deficit last month. The home I8 still $96 behind. The report showed a decrease in the num- ber of lodgers, but this was caused by cir- cumstances beyond the control of the com- mittee. Some of the girls left town and others left to find better rooms. The com- mittee considered this no reflection on the home, as its purpose is to furnish ch boarding and lodging for girls whose » do not permit them to get better places The committee on the lodging house handed in a report which showed that the houea was in a flourishing condition, The matron visits the depots at train time to mect any girls or women who are strangers in the city and who need assistance and ad- vice. Much good work has been done dur- ing the past month, Bighty-six lodgers have been received, and twenty-one applications for work, twelve of which have been sup- plied. A large number of donations have been received in cash, furniture and supplics. The matron will wear a uniform next month. The committee on the Burt «street home reported that the home shelters at present eight old ladles, all of whom are in good health. Quite an amount of provisions and furniture had been received during the month. The receipts in cash were $37.36, with a balance of $4.31. Mrs. Joseph Millard had been especially active in donating and she was voted the thanks of the association. Miss Street. offered the use of a building opposite the Hickory school for an industrial educational school. ~This is in the midst of the Bohemian and German settlement. She suggested that the charitable nature of the school be masked and that a nominal sum be charged per lesson, 3 or b cents. She thought it would be advisable to start with sewing only as an experiment, and if it should be successful other branches could be started. The following committee was ap- pointed to investigate: Mrs. Creigh, Mr: Tracy and Mrs. Haner. Mrs. Tilden then brought before the meet- ing a new scheme to swell the treasury of the association. It is proposed to hold at the Charles Street ball park a ‘‘Falries’ Carnival” on June 19, 20 and 21 in conjunc- tion with the Young Women's Christian as- sociation. One thousand children from 5 to 16 years of age will take part. Committees were appointed to push the scheme. Twelve ladies will be in charge of the children dur- ing the performance. Lemonade will be served during the play. A’ vote of thanks was given to the trustees and young ladies of the First Congregational church for the reoms and services during the Blind Tom concert. —— Cropmand Free Silver. Melville D. Landon (Eli Perkins) passed through Omaha from California yesterday. When asked about the prosperity of the Pacific slope he said: “They have had a great drouth in C. ifornia until lately. The wheat crop is a half failure all over the state. The late rains have ruined the dried grass. Wool is low, meat is cheap, and fruit is a drug in the market. Fruit raising has been ove done in California.” “How about beet sugar?” was asked. “That bas been increased, and the beets are looking splendidly, California is - the home of the beet. The winters are warm and the sugar manufacturer has no trouble from frost. In fact, he has the whole fall and winter to gather the beets and manufac- ture the sugar.” “Speaking of free silver,” said he, “I have not found a bank president in Arizona, New Mexico, California or Colorado who is for free silver. I find editors at Boise City and Helena who are for free colnage, but no thoughtful bankers. I found free cofnage in Mexico—that is, I found silver with no gold under it, but the Mexican dollar was worth 49 cents, Mexico, like China and India, has lost half its wealth.” “Do_prices change in China and India with the price of silver?” “No; strange to say, silks in China which cost a Mexican dollar a yard five years ago can now be bought for the same piece of silver worth 48 cents. The Indian and Chinaman is the loser by free coinage. This is why Tom Reed would put an extra tariff on these very cheap manufactured goods made in the Orient. Their low wages have dropped one-half, and their phenomenally low wages begin to pull down our wages. This is why Heed would put a diseriminat- ing tariff against 1,200,000,000 half civilized Africans, Indians and Chinamen, whose silver is worth one-half as much as ours, and whose wages have gone down a half.” “How is California politically?" “It is solid against Cleveland, and so are Arizona, New Mexico, Idaho, Nevada and The other night in San Fran- theater they threw pictures from a magic lantern onto the skirt dancer. When Cleveland’s face appeared it was hissed all over the theater, while Harrison's face was cheered. McKinley's face set the people crazy, and amid a bedlam of joy, they called k again.” Perkins took the Q for Chicago with his wife and family. — neral of Ry ames A, Bruen. The funeral of Rev.
