WATER PRESSURE INQUIRY Fire Dopartment an1 Water Works Company h i Officials Asked Questions, [ NOT ENOUGH FORCE FOR BIG FIRES | '$izo of Malns as Described by Secrotary Hunt—Assistant Chlefs Says that Un- der Pressnt Clrcumstance More Engines Are Necessary. The speclal committee which was appointed to investigate the water pressure began ac- tive operations in the council chamber last svening. All members of the committee we present, as well as Mayor Bemls, Commis- sloners Hartman, Coburn, Smith and Strick- ler, City Engineer Rosewater, Superintendent Hunt and Receiver Bierbower of the Water Works company and Assistant Chiefs Barnes and Salter of the fire department. Mr. Euclid Martin suggested that the rep- ‘resentatives of the Commercial club be al- flowed to select a member to represent them during the Investigation, and that the same courtesy be extended to the Water Works | company. Mr. Montgomery was selected by the CommerciaP club committee, but Mr. Bler- | bower sald that he was simply present a® the request of the committee to furnish any in- formation that might be required, and did| Dot propose to take an active part in the in- vestigation. The first witness called was Assistant Chief Salter, who stated that he had been a mem- ber of the Omaha fire department for the past | elghteen years. He was que:tioned in detail in regard to the Morse-Coe fire, especlally in relation to the position of the engines, the lengths of the lines of hose and the general disposition of the department. He stated that there were fifteen streams playing dur- ing. the progress of the fire, five of which were supplied by the engines and the remain- der by direct hydrant connection. In reply to a direct question Salter sald that with a better pressure or additional engines the fir might have been handled with more success. It was also developed that there was no driver bn the water tower at the time on account of the shortage of men in the department. The itness also test fled in regard to the breaking of the nozzle on the tower, :0 that the stream could not be thrown iuto the building, and the bursting of the vacuum chambers fn two of the engines, which was brought out at the previous meeting of the committe Recurring to the question of pressure the witness was examined at considerable length. He stated that in his opinion the prescnt pressure was inadequate and could best b Bupplemented by additional eng He also thought that If the larger mains wers put in In some parts of the city it would be an improvement. The pressure was much bet- ter in the north part of the city, but the de- partment had been handicapped by the lack of pressure at every fire in large buildings in the central part of the city. To make the service thoroughly effective it would be nec- essary to have more engines, another hook and ladder truck, more hose carts, and pos: bly the enlargement of som: of the mai Mr. Salter's examination lasted for two hours, and then he was succeeded by Assis tant Chict Barnes, who was examined along the same line. He agreed with the previous witness that the department did the best gervice possible with the apparatus at its gommand. The pressure was weak, and a couple of additional engines would have been 6f great advantage. There was not a city in the United States of over 75,000 inhabitants Which depended on hydrant pressure for fire protection. Superintendent Hunt was the rack and asked to tell what he knew phout - water . works pressure. He was e Amined minutely in regard to the location of hydrants and the size of the mains In the central part of the city. He gave the size of the mamy a8 follaws: Leavonworth street, elght inch; Jonbs, eight inch; Jackson, six Inehi' Howard, twelve inch; Harney, eight Inch; Farnam, two mains, efght and eighteen Inches, respectivedy: Douglas, six inch; Dodge, Wwelve inch -Atom Thirteenth (o Sixteonit streets and efght inch from Ninth to Thir- teenth; Capitol avenue, four inch, and Day- enport, fourteenth. incli.

The witness was asked to explain the gen- eraly system by which the mains were sup- plied, which was substantially sald to be through the large mains on Sixteenth, Bigh- teenth and Cuming streets. The average deily consumption In Omaha and South Omaha was about 19,000,000 gallons, which was originally taken from the reservor at Florence. Of the 165 miles of pipe In Omaha from fifty to sixty miles was six inch. The ressure was regulated by the reservoir at alnut hill, and in order to obtain a direct pressure from the engines this reservoir had 10 be shut off. This was impossible, and had never been attempted.

BREAD TAKES A TUMBLE, And the Man Who Cousumes the Staff of Lile s Benefitea. There is the liveliest kind of prospect for a war between the bread makers and the bread scllers, and the chances are that the breadwinners will reap the fruits of the vic- tory. In eastern cities the price of bread been falling steadily, until in Washington, New York and other large centers of popu- lation the staff of life is now selling at 2% and 3 cents per pound loaf. For the past few months the price of wheat has been fall- never been able to understand why their wheat sold for double mands today. Here in Omaha the price of bread as sold at the grocery stores has been uniformly 6 cents per pound loaf. If wheat sold for $1 & bushel the grocer charged his b cents per loal. It wheat was worth but 45 cents the thrifty grocer received the § cents just the same. This fact Is now explained. Yester- day Kuenne's bakery at 622 South Six- teenth street displayed a huge banner across its front notifying the public that fresh bread would hereafier be retailed at 2 cents per pound loaf. When asked In regard to his announcement Mr. Kuenne made the follow- ing siatement: “It is true that I am sell- ing bread at 2 cents. This Is not a speclally baked bread. It Is the same that I sell to the groceries and from my wagons, and the same that I have been selling all along at & cents. There is no profit to me in the sale of bread at 2 cents, but I can sell it at a profit at 21 cents. 1 am merely selling for cents to call the attention of the whole public to the fact that it has been for nearly two years imposed upon by the grocery men who ‘sell bread. Two years ago, when the price of flour was considerably higher than it is now, the bakers of Omaha sold their bread to the grocers at the rate of twenty- cight loaves for $1. As the price of flour fell the price of bread to the grocers also declined, first to thirty loaves for $1, and gradually lower until at the present time the bakers of Omaha are compelled to sell grocers at the rate of fifty loaves for $1. Thus the bread for which the grocer de- mands 5 cents costs him but 2 cents. The baker makes practlcally rothing. Most of the grocers of Omaha pay their rent from the profits on the bread they tell to thelr cus- tomers at G cents a loaf. We want to change all this. We want the sale of bread to be so regulated that the bakers will be able to make a small profit and so that at the me time the consumer will reap the benefit. The Omaha people have gained noth- ing by the extraordinary fall in the price of wheat. The bakers have gained nothing, for they have steadily reduced the price to the grocer. The grocer has made all the profit and at the same time the bakers have been held responsible for the fact that bread costs the consumer just as much when wheat is 50 cents a bushel as it does when wheat s for $1 a bushel. believe that the most equitable plan would ba to establish a standard loaf weigh- ing a pound and a half, to sell at wholesale at 4 cents and at retail At 5 cents. Then when the price of wheat falls let the weight of. the loaf be-increased in a_correspording ratio; — This plan would enable the baker to make a fair profit, would give the grocer a small profit over his-expense of ‘deliver- ing and would give the consumer tho bene- fit of a loaf of bread much.larger than the one he is now able to purchase for 5 cents.” A WAS COLOX COIT DRUNK? the price it com- Testimony Refore the Court of Inquiry Does Not Confirm the Charge. COLUMBUS, 0. Nov. 22.—Captain Oyler who ordered the troops at Washington court house to fire in accordance with orders from Colonel Coit in a contingency, testified today in a court of inquiry, to the battering of the doors by the mob with stones and other things. A shot fired by a person outside was followed by a cry: “All together,” and a terirfic blow opened the south door four feet, when I gave the command, “Fire!” After one volley I gave the command, “Cease firing!" The door at this moment was open but a fow inches having been closed considerably by the force or weight of the barricades, Neither the witness nor his men were Intoxicated. They had no opportunity to get into such condition. ~ Witness had drunk a glass of beer Immediately after dinner. The firing was at night. He was confident the mob was determined upon getting in. A line of soldiers outside, around the bullding, would have been weak and caslly overcome. The witness sald such a defense would have been idiotic. He saw at least fifty revolvers in the crowd in the afternoon. Colonel Coit and Major Speaks were not drunk. The persons outside did not run when the door gave away. Riot shells contalning shot could not have been used, not being fitted to the rifles of the Ohio National Guards C. B. Page, a dentist at Washington Court House, testified that in the evening he heard the crowd warned by an officer in the window of the court house. ————— MAY FORM A BIG POOL.

N[WSPAPEK‘ AN ADVISED TO LEAVE Ono Story to theiiffect fle Was Implieated in the Koy Plot and Avother that He Had™heen Playing Spy wnd Was S8#6% Away ns u Blnd, HONOLULU, Nov, 10 (per steamer Maricopa, via San Francisco, Nov. 22).—That the gov- ernment Is still in fear of a royalist upri ing has been evident during the last week. All the guards in the suburbs have been doubled, and a close watch has been Kept on all suspected persons. The cause of this sud- den activity is alleged to be the discovery of a plot to restore the ex-queen. The restor- ing party was supposed to be led by a fan Francisco newspaper man, who, for a time after his arrival here, soon after the recent revolution, was an active supporter of the new government. His house has been closely watched for weeks and some days before the departure of the steamer Australia, last Satur- day, he was told by Attorney General Smith that it would be much better for him to take that steamer than to remain here. He did s0, but the government has not rolaxed its watchfulness on account of his departure. One of the most prominent and richest royal- ists in the city said a few evenings ago: “People who think our cause is dead will be treated to a surprise in the near future which will make them open their eyes. We have made many attempts to arouse the royalists to a sense of their wrongs, but so far we Lave failed. This time, however, I think we have succeeded and will accomplish our end. Whether we succeed or not is hard to say, but {f we did not think we would, we would not attempt a revolution.” It is known that a considerablo number of guns and ammunition have been secretly brought here during the last few moucns, and the royalists evider.ly intend (o make use of them. No uneasiness Is felt by tho gov- crnment party, however, which scems per- fectly well satisfied that it can hold its own. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22.—The newspa- per man mentioned in the Assoclated press correspondence in connection with the lutest royalist conspiracy in Hawail is Ciaude £ Wetmore, who first went to Honolulu imme- diately after the revolution as correspondent for a Chicago newspaper. After remaining in the islands a few months he returned to San Francisco and obtained emplayment on the local newspapers. A few months ago he married a young woman whose howe is in Santa Cruz, He returned with her to Hono- lulu, Concerning Wetmore's escapade, two stories are heard here. One is that Wetmcre conspired with the royalists, as told in the Honolulu_correspondence. Another is that he Ingratiated himself with the royalists, learned their secrets and exposed theiz whole plot to the government, after which the gov- ernment officers went through the process of deporting hing gecpe Tuse to shield and con- a1 the real mAfR'F his relations with the government.
