THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24 1900 FAVORS GO TO FUSIONISTS Becretary of Btate Porter Executes a Littl Deal Very Quietly. CONTRACTS FOR STATE HOUSE CARPET Transaction Carried on Without the ty of Competit LINCOLN poclal Telegiam.)— Without golng through the formality of asking for estimates from other dealers, Becretary of State Porter has authorized two local merchants to recarpet the legls- lative halls and committee rooms in the state house at an expense to the state of er $3,000. The beneficiaries in the deal are W. H. Hardy and Charles H. Rudge, both of whom are fusionists, The carpet will be the best that can be obtained and the price the highest that can be asked within the bounds of reason. Mossrs. Hardy and Rudge were the only dealers who were given a chance to submit an estimate for furnishing the carpet for the rooms. Both were summoned to the state houss a few days ago and after a few minutes consultation with the secre- tary of state the transaction was closed and they went out for samples from which & selection could be made. These samples were taken to the secretary of state’s office Iate In the afternoon and nothing was known of the deal until several days later The Hardy Co., will furnish the car- pet for representatives' hall and all com- mittes rooms in the east end of the build- ing, while that for the senate chamber and the committee rooms in the west end of the building will be supplied by the €. H Rudge Co. The price of the carpet will average $1.76 per yard, All the carpet now in use in the halls and ‘committee rooms has been sold by the secretury of state to second-hand denlers for $432.50. This amount will probably be applled on tho claim for the new car- pet and the legislature will be asked to make good the balance. Ends Much Litigation. The decision of the supreme court, in which the Board of Transportation act was declared unconstitutional, will result in the dismissal of several law suits recently in- stituted by the attorney general against other railroads to recover penalties for vio- latlon of the board's orders. Chief among these are the cases of the State agalnst the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missour! Valley, the Chicago & Northwestern and the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha rallroads, all for pen- altles aggregating about $100,000. Another case instituted by the stockholders of the Burlington rallroad to enjoln the State Beard of Transportation from changing or determining railroad rates on the transpor- tation of live stock or freight will also be dismissed it tho deciglon is allowed to stand. Besides all theso there are a number of cases pending against the rafl- roads for violation of the mfaximum freight rate law. So far as known the court's de- ciston will have no effect on those cases. Durlng the perfod the Board of Transpor- tation was in force the state pald over $80,- 000 In salaries for secretaries and office as- sistance. During the same period the state expended over $50,000 in extra counsel fees and expenses In the defense of the powers granted by the law, James M.

At the same time he conceded the important value of the applicant's endorsements and recommenda- tions and regretted that his {irrevocable rule regarding age should have to apply in his case.
