A, AT 1 p———— P THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, JULY 3, 1894 ’ A AUDACIOUS CONSPIRACY Flan to Depose the Magor in the Interests of the Eoodle Combine, HASCALL AND WHEELER TAKE THE LEAD Impeachment Papers Filed Late Yesterday Aftern Anin by Uity Character of the Schemers. At 4:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon Joseph R. Clarkson, a member of the firm of Hall, McCullough & Clarkson, filed In the office of the clerk of the district court a remark- sble paper, purporting to be charges of im- peachment against Mayor George P. Bemis, in which it was claimed that the-executive had been guilty of misfeasance and mal- feasance In office. This wonderful document was signed by Isaac 8. Hascall and Daniel H. Wheeler, two members of the city coun- cll, and therein they alleged that Mayor Bemis should be deposed from the position which he occupies. In brief, the charges are as follows Official misconduct as a the Board of Fire and Police in obstructing the enforcement sgainst gambling. That he has conspired with certain per:ons to permit the running of gambling places in Omaha in violation of law. That on April 21 he was gullty of mal- feasance in office by spending several hun- dred dollars of city funds for Kelly's army after it had passed through Omaha and was golng through lowa. That he failed, neglected and refused to appaint a succes or to Mr. Cowgill as city elec- trician after the council had rejected the appointment of Mr. Cowgill, and left the of- fice vacant. That he was guilty of a misdemeanor in office by selling Bemis park, in which he was interested as owner, to the city of Omaha, of which he was mayor. That he was Interested personally and as agent in the contract for the purchase of Bemis park for $30,000, and drew $29,750 thereon. The fact that this nent was filed at such. a late hour, and when none of the Judges were upon the bench, was a matter that was the subject of some animated dis- cusslon, it being thought that it was a trick to secure some snap judgment, known only to the main plotters in the scheme. A lively hustle was made during the evening to find some judge who would issue the writ prayed for, but none was found, and, as a result, the fssuance of the writ will go over until this afternoon. PLAN TO LOOT THE TREASURY. The announcement that Dan Wheeler and Ike Hascall had attempted the political life of the mayor of this city did not fall like a thunderboit. ~Although commented upon to a great extent, all of the comment was of a kind that was not complimentary to the two councilmen who had tendered their assist- ance in carrying out the damnable plot that was incubated by the corporate boodle ring. It was denounced as a plece of dirty work, while many of the citizens went stili farther and unhesitatingly stated that the vhole affair was nothing more nor less than he part of a scheme and the forerunner of an attempt of the corrupt combine to loot the treasury of the city. Hascall, with his wonderful knowledge of the law, claims that if a judge of the dis- trict bench signs the writ asked for Mayor Bemis will be suspended and President How- ‘1,1 of the council will become the acting ayor until a final determination of the is- gues can be had. That question, however, depends upon what the judge who takes the case may think of the charges which Has call and Wheeler have drummed up for the occasion. The charter of citles of the metropolitan class provides that when two councilmen shall prefer charges and specifications against the mayor the judge of the district court shall cite such officer to appear, and that the proceedings shall take precedenee over all civil causes, and that the accused ghall be tried by the rules of such court, made and provided. The charter also pro- vides that the judge may suspend the ac- cused, but the whole matter of suspension 15 left to the discretion of the court. Taking the charter view of the situation, 1t 1s doubtful if any judge upon the bench of this district cares to take upon his ghoulders the responsibility of suspending Mayor Bemis with no more evidence than e flimsy charges trumped up by two men ho are known to be actuated by motives which have never been too honest, in these or any of their other public or political hets, HOW IT WAS HATCHED. During the last campalgn the franchised corporations banded themselves together in their support of Ike Hascall for the position of mayor of this city, the agreement being o also support certain men for the coun- cll. Money was used as freely as water, and all of the influence and means at com- and went toward the securing of the elec- lon of the ticket endorsed by the combine. Hascall, however, was f{gnominiously de- eated, and for a time this was a black eye o the corporation gang, but within thirty ays after the result of the election had een declared the conspiracy to depose ayor Bemis by bringing impeachment harges was hatched, the plan then Leing get rid of him on account of alleged isdemeanors in office committed during als first term. The Infamous plot had its eadquarters in the office of Solon L. Wiley ¢ the electric lighting company, while the indquarters were trailed up Farnam strect d located in the office of the World-Her- d. For some reason the plotters failed to ow their hands to the public, but soon terwards they instituted their crusade of orality and commenced the ralding of he gamblers,. using this as a cloak end a disgulse to cover the cloven foot that Wwas to be put forward at a later date. Their failure to elect the president of the council Was a temporary check, but soon the schem- ‘ers got their second wind and again jumped nto the breach. It required two council- en to sign charges, and a great deal t difculty experienced in getting the gecond man, Hascall, however, being ready sign anything that would have a tendency tg throw the city government into the hands of the raiders, member of Commission of the Wheeler was not the first man who was approached upon the subject of signing the charges, as another member as tampered with, he being taken up he mountain, where he was shown a fair fand, all of which he was promised, provid- ing he would lend himself to the combine. This member, who at one time has had a connection with the World-Herald, was ap- ealed to on the grounds of friendshi hen the hand was shown to him he turned §t down with a flat refusal. Two other councilmen were offered a good round of money If they would bring the charges, but they refused the boodlo, after which at- tention was turned to Mr. Edwards, who partially agreed to haul the chestnuts out of the fire, but coming to his senses he ecame ‘consclence stricken and refused to oin the copartnership with Hascall. Finally he conspiracy seemed to have collapsed ike a balloon, but an occasion was arising nd decisive action had to be taken, esperate circumstances required desperate Retion. i WHY THEY DISLIKE BEMIS. '\ Mayor Bemis has stood as the bulwark tween the treasury and the looters of the trong box and has balked the jobs at every rn. Only two weeks ago an omnibus Fdinance went through the council pro- Hding for the payment of a $17,000 bill to e electric lighting company and an asphalt vement repairing bill for $14,000. Both these claims were vetoed, but when they t back to the council the bill of the jghting company went over the veto with a urrah, but a suficient amount of lubricator not been applied and the bill of the phalt company failed to get the necessary umber of votes. pis temporarily disabled jo gang, but the members threw out new and agaln resorted to desperate tactics, feh they adopted yesterday. \ley, it would seem, 18 In sorry straits r money, but it Is manifest that he docs t dare to go to the courts to press his faims apd ask for a mandamus to compel @ mayor to sign his warrant. Instead of ing this he finds that his chances are ter by securing the assistance of a po- sl Quiteu like Hascall w emergency for the deiperate act came as | the coming i» ¢§ the month of July, | and the combine found time for the ousting of the not the only reason that Hascall has for politically assassinating Mayor Bemis. If he can get him out of the way he will have a $16,000 grading job that he has declared must be secured at all hazards, and owing to some of the circumitances surrounding the deal he knows that he can never pull through it with Bemis watching over the treasury. Beyond all of this t is a member of the Board of Public Works to be appointed within the next twenty-four hours 10 say nothing ot th@four or five other im- portant offices to be filled. Hascall and his co-workers In the dastardly scheme which they have concocted realize that if they can but put Bemls out they will have full swin and can run things to sult their own f Last, but not least, there is the city ele tricfan’ vacanc nd it is the evident in- tention to folst Wiley's man Friday upon the city through the back door of an acting mayor. Regarding the charge of the appropriating of money to aid the Kelly Commonwealers, it Is known that it is too flimsy to be con- sidered for one moment, as the money was voted by the city council, the warrant drawn on the treasury for the amount simply being signed by the mayor. In regard to the gambling matter, it was the outcome of the crugade and was in line with the course followed by the preceding mayors of the city, and coming down to the Bemis park subfect, upon which Hascall and Wheeler place o much stress, the bonds for the purchase of the land were voted for this specific purpose three months before Mayor Bemis became the executive of the city. In no way did he engineer the sale. of the tract, being simply one of the smaller stockholders in the Bemis Park company. this the opportune mayor.

The trouble which exists between Deputy United States Marshal Coggeshall and the members of the Jacksonlan club refuses to down. The members of the ciub claim that not only did the deputy give the republicans the preference when he was hiring men to go out and capture the Commonwealers at Julesburg, but in addition to all of this they claim that he fitted some of them out with suits of new clothes and then had the bill charged to Uncle Sam. One weel from next Saturday night the Jacksonians will hold a meeting at which time they wilk call Marshal White and his deputies upon the carpet to: explain. After getting the explanation they will cut loose from the administration by the introduction of a resolution declaring for Bryan and free silver on the basis of 16 to 1. The men who are in the push aver that if the resolu- tion is introduced it will be adopted by an overwhelming majority, notwithstanding all the efforts of the administration crowd.

Wants Electris Street Lighting Contract Accondiag to His Bid. A new complication in the electric light muddle yesterday afterncon when E. T. Pardee, thraugh!his attorneys, filed a pe- titlon in the @isteict court asking that a mandamus be dssued to compel the mayor and city counell to enter into a contract with the plaintift for the electric lighting of the city of Omaha according to the terms of the bid submitted by the plaintiff, nd which was accepted by the council on Feb- ruary The potition recites the entire history of the ca: which may be briefly stated as follows: On January 31 of this year the city advertised for bids for electric lighting, and the bid of the plaintift was pre- sented with others on February 13. The Pardee bid was the lowest submitted by a considerable margin, and on February 27 the council accepted the bid on condition that within three days the bidde should de- posit a bond in the sum of $25,000 to enter into and carry out the contract. This bond was promptly filed with Samuel D. Mercer as surety, but the council refused either to ap- prove the bond or to enter into a contract on_the terms of the bid. The plaintiff also alleges that the failure of the council to carry out its agreement is due to an illegal conspiracy between the majority of the council and the New Thom- Houston Electric Light company; that d wrongful and fraudulent conspiracy has for its purpose the protection by sald council of this comy in_its unlawful monopoly In and unreasonable and extor- fonate prices for lighting the city of Omaha, and th; the council has entered into this conspiracy in order to fraudulently prevent any person or corporation from obtaining sald contract at any price whatever and has agreed with the Thomson-Houston company that the advertising for bids should be a form without meaning, and that this com- pany should be protected at all hazards in its_fraudulent designs. The petition goes on to review the sub- sequemt action of the council in creating a joint committee instead of allowing the mat- ter to take its usual course by reference to the committee on gas and electric lights and in repeatedly throwing out all bids and re- advertising when the bids submitted were unfavorable to the Thomson-Houston com- pany. Finally the piaintiff avers that he is informed and believes that certain mem- bers of the council have entered into this conspiracy on account of pre-election prom- ises made to the said Thomson-Houston company and that in various other ways this company has acquired and still retains an undue influence over these members. The case Is set for hearing before Judge Ambrose on July 7 at 9:30 a. m. ettty CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS. Business Done at Yeste ay's Special Session —Hascall's Bluff No Good. The threat made by Councilman Hascall arose at the time when his attempt to cut down | the force of the Board of Public Works ended in his discomfiture, that he would de- feat the appropriation ordinance, failed to materialize at the ‘special council meeting yesterday afternoon. At the time Hascall asserted that he would be on hand with the ten votes neces- sary to defeat the ordinance, but when the ordinance came up for passage the votes were all on the other side of the proposition, and the ordinance was passed without com- ment. A communication was read from J. B. Schupp, president of the Central Labor union, asking the council to take some ac- tion towards supplying provisions for the Industrial army that was approaching the city. Several ‘menthers declared that the council had 'no: authority to appropriate money for that -purpose, while others were in favor of making some reasonable provi- sion for the travelers. A motion to refer to the county commissioners was followed by an amendment to refer to the finance com- mittee until the next meeti Cahn moved as a_substitute that $200 be appropriated to purchase provisions for the Commonwealers, but this was voted down and the original motion prevailed. The old fight in the Board of Health over the removal of Inspectors Landergren, ith and Albrecht by Commissioner Sa- ville in accordonce with the re- trenchment resolution of the coun- cil was transferred to the council chamber through a bill for the services of the three inspectors during June. Bruner and McAndrews made a vigorous effort to get the bill allowed on the ground that the commissioner had no authority to suspend the inspectors. . The motion to refer pre- vailed. An ordinance providing for the opening of a street along Saddle creek from Hamilton to Center streets was introduced and re- ferred. The amended garbage ordinance was passed. The council then adjourned and recon- vened in special session to consider the June appropriation ordinance. This was stully accomplished and adjournment en until Tuesday evening. ———————— ates for Fourth. One fare for the round trip via the Unlon Pacific. See your nearest U.
