THE RECENT DISCUSSES CRITICISM Ofters Public-Spirited Sugmeations as to Kind of Bullding Omaha Needw—Advinen Wature Deliberatio A number of the members of the advisory | board of the Omaha Auditorium company | met with the board of directors yester- at the Commercial club for the purs poss of discussing plans for the proposed building E. Sanborn, president of the company called the meeting to order and sald that the board had reached a polnt in the work where it believed that it was ready to begin the construction of the building and that it desired to have the advice of the advisory committee on the subject. Members of the board had taken exceptions to certaln criticlsms in The Bee and he therefore called upon Mr. Edward Rosewater, editor of The Bee and & member of the advisory hoard, to express his opinions on the subject. Referring to the criticism Mr. Roséwater ated that at times hé felt like resigning from the board, as he disliked to appear to be opposed to persons on the same com- mittee; that in all matters he desired to his duty as an editor; that he as an editor must consider matters from a broad stand- point and not from the narrow grounds of self-interest, and that thercfore he often desired to be free from the committee so that he could express ideas from the stand- point of an outsider; that he wanted the Auditorium enterprise to be a great suc- cess and not a little success, and that therefore he was opposed to hurrying mat- ters which should receive mature consider- ation. Suggestions as to Bullding. Taking up the form of building to be con- structed Mr. Rosewatsr suggested that it should bo wider and possibly not so deep; the company skould secure the alley In the rear of the site and widen the building by twenty foet. His idea of an auditorium was modelled after the Mormon tabernacle at Salt Lake City which had perfect acoustic properties, and he thought the Auditorium should approach the oval in form. Omaha should have a unique building, not one modelled on the Kansas City plan. He be- leved that the committee should get good plans and get more money in the treasury bofore beginning activa operations. Mr. Sanborn thought that the advisory board and the board of directors had not been close erough together in the work, and desired Mr. Rosewater to remain upon th: committee, as the members nceded his advice. G. M. Hitchcock was called upon for an expression of his idea of the matter. He sald he had no fdeas upon the subject, but was ready to follow the committee wher- ever {t led. He believed that the seating capacity of the bullding should be limited to abcut 5,000, and thought $200,000 an ex- cesslve amount to pay for such a building, which was Intended to be strictly useful and not to add to the artistic features of a town. Statns of A Mr. Sanborn read a statement of the busi- ness of the company, as published some time ago, since which time subscriptions to the amouht of $2,600 have been received. He stated that T. R. Kimball, the consult: ing architect, had estfrhated the co®t of the bullding which received the first prize in the contest at $140,000, a sum about $17,000 in excess of the architects' figures. C. C. Belden belleved that the plans as submitted by John Latenser were worthy of consideration and that it they were adopted everyone would be satisfied. He was in favor of a bullding with a large seating capacity. Euclid Martin was under the impression that the plans had been adopted, but when he learned that they had not he added his volce in testimony of Latenser, say- ing that he was chairman of a board which had constructed $400,000 worth of school houses under Mr. Latenser's supervision without $1,000 of extras, and each one within the estimate of the architect. He thought a building seating 5,000 persons would be a greater advantage to the city than one seating a much larger number. Bruce Indorses Idea. E. E. Bruce stated that he believed the plan suggested by Mr. Rosewater in regard to securing the alley in the rear ot the site was a most excellent ome, “If you would ask me,” he said, “‘whether or not to proceed with the plans at this time I would vote no. You have anticipated assets on hand of about $160,000; you have called for & 30 per cent assessment on $115,000 of stock, which wouyld be about 3,000, you have recelved about $26,000 of this amount. 1 think we should have at least $250,000 in subscriptions before a spade of dirt is thrown, as along the present lines we would clean up about $210,000. I belleve that of the funds subscribed for the Trans- mississippl exposition we collected about 70 per cent. That experlence is what I base my present views upon. You have some cash on hand from contributions, so you will be In luck If you collect an amount equal to 80 per cent of the amount sub- scribed.” At another time, speaking on the sub- ject, Mr. Bruce said that as he understood it the ccmmittee was bound by its charter to place no bonded debt upon the building. “Suppose,” he sald, “that you have $200,000 in subscriptions. On the basis of 80 per cent this will net you $160,000. The site with Interest and taxes, will cost prac- tically $60,000, leaving you $100,000 for the building. The estimate of the consuiting architect on the cost of the bullding whose | plans received the first prize is $140,000. Where will the extra $40,000 come from? In my opiniou you must have at least $250, 000 on hand in subscriptions before you start.” Colonel C. F. Weller complimented the committee upon the excellent work it had done and was In favor of proceeding at | once to the construction of the building, the committee in its prospectus had prom- 1sed to begin work on hand. He favored a bullding seating 7,500 people rather than a larger one. F. P. Kirkendall thought the company should be ready to bulld when it had about $200,000 on hand in subscriptions and $75,- 000 in the treasury. Compared with Exposition. Mr. Sanborn thought that some of the people were losing sight of the fact that the somo difference in the character of the subscriptions received by the Trans- misstssippl exposition and those received by the Auditorium company, for the reason that some of the former subscriptions were three years old before an attempt was made to collect them. “Take our present sub’ scriptions,” said he. “Todar they are worth $150,000, & year from mow they would not be worth $125,000," and for that reason he expressed an opinion that work should soon begin. In referring to the Transmississippi ex- position, Edward Rosewater stated that that enterprise had an assured income from gate receipts and from the sale of con- cessfons, while there was no assurance of an income from the Auditorium, for as soon Conatersigned by.

Under existing condi- tlons every subscription fs a promissory note, payable on demand, and there is noth- Ing to prevent the board from calling an assessment of 100 per cent at this time Tt was suggested that the articles of In- corporation could be changed, but someone thought that this ‘would invalidate the sub scriptions.

Former Judge Courles Ogden was sent to | {4ail yesterday morning for contempt of court He was ordered committed by Judge Key- sor, one of h's former associates on the district court bench, and he remained be- hind the iron barred doors of the county Jail for nearly am hour before he paid his fine, which was liquidated under duress. The trouble arose at the trial of the case of Anton Powell agalast Anton Procapdo, in which Judgé Ogden was acting as counsel for the defendant. The amount of money involved in the case is small, but Judge Ogden considered the principle involved so important that he undertook the defense of the case for a nominal fee. Powell some months ago had Procapdo arrested on a charge of steallng 45 from him. Procapdo was tried in the police court and acquitted, having satistactorily accounted in that court for the amount of money that was found In his possession at the time of his arrest. Before the police returned Pro- capdo’s money to him after his acquit- tal, Powell attached $145 of it, and _the present sult in the district court s to enforce that _attachment. Judge Ogden is very much Interested in the case and it his client ls beaten in the trial court he will appeal to the supreme court, despite the fact that he has received a fee of only $10. Powell, the plaintiff, who accuses Pro- capdo with having stolen his money, was on the witness stand yesterday and Judge Ogden, on cross-examination under- took to show that the cash might have been stolen by some one other than Pro- capdo. In the course of the examination George H. Bowman, counsel for Powell, interposed various objections to the ques- tions and made side remarks that net- tled Judge Ogden, who was standing at the end of the attorney's table, within reach of the opposing counsei ““Were you In the habit of having colored women come to your room?” asked Judge Ogden of Powell, for.the purpose of showing that the robbery could have been commit- ted by some one other than Procapdo. “I object,” shouted Lawyer Bowman, “the question is improper and counsel is guilty of unprofegsional conduct. Judge Ogden, hyving his professional con- duct questioned, losf his temper for a mo- ment, shoved his fist under Bowman's nose and, in a halt whisper and hal? hiss, said: “I'll smash’ you." “gjt down!" demanded Judge Keysor. “1 prefer to stand up,” replied Judge gden quietly. 1 tell you to sit down.” «“But I have a right to stand it T want to.” “Mr. Balllff," commanded the court, “call the sherift. Baillf Youngers within a minute had Deputy Sherlff Weber at hand and Judge Ogden continued to starid. “Mr. Ogden,” sald Judge Keysor, “you are fined $25 and costs for contempt of court and you are committed to Jail until the fine is pald.” Judge Ogden entered an exception to the execution of the court's order untll after the trial under way was concluded and then accompanied Deputy Sherifft Weber to jall, declaring that he would fight out the issue with Judge Keysor in the supreme court. The imprisoned ex-judge sent for one of his office clerks, prepared a check for $28.65, the amount of the fine and costs, and pald it to the clerk of the court under duress, after which he was released. “1 propose to carry this contempt case into the supreme court,” said Judge Ogden as_he stood in the jail corridor.

In short, Benson {s about to reach out for ail those attributes which distinguish the city from the hamlet—for sewcrage, fire protection, electric lights, Zas and public water works system. All this is because a rumor has reached the villegers that with these advantages theirs will become the most populous and wealthy residence suburb of Omaha. “All we need” rucs the current argument, “is to give the big bugs of the city this pro- y tection and these comforts and conven- Ginn 1wm-n and they will flock to us.

EMPEROR'S YACHT IS FOURTH Three Others Beat it for Kiel Cup in First Regatta Race—Mra. mpectal meeting of the village board to consider the matter of buyink a lot and building an engine house for the accommo- dation of the mew fire equipment, which 18 expected to arrive July 16, but this fssue | was swamped under the bigger one hinted t to the gathering by the non-office hold- ing element The speeches of the promoters were very guarded. They did not come out openly in favor. of thelr project, and not once were such terms as water works, electric lights or sewerage mentioncd. But they were hinted at. One member opposed the erec- tion of a $400 engine house “because we might decide to bulld a better one.” * An- other objected to the voting of bonds for this improvement “because, as you - all know, there is a movement on foot to bond this village on a much grander scale; to bond her to the ultimate limit," and he didn’t think it would be wise to spring two hond propositions on the people within too short a time. Still another repeated what a wealthy Omaha business man had told him about Benson being a village of destiny, needing only a few metropolitan features to attract the lion's share of the best homes in Omaha Thue the. disoussion ran on, the orators dealing in innuendo and covert hints. Each scemed to dread, being pointed out as a “‘promoter,” and being accused of ‘biting off more than he could chew,” though, in- deed, there seemed to be none to do the pointing, as (here was evidence of re- markable unanimity of sentiment. 1t was finally agreed that a petition ehould be circulated among the citizens to secure fifty signatures to a proposition to vote bonds—in what sum and for what pur- pose was not determined, The smallest amount specified was $4,300, but a figure ten times that size was mentioned obliquely. “It is all in the alr now,” sald Joseph McGuire, chalrman of the village board. “We will feel around among the people u little and find out what they want, and when wé've done thut we'll call another special meeting of the board and bring the thing to a focus. He admitted ;that, there. was a kind of sub rosa movement pending to put in im- provements on a grand gcale, but sald it was nothing more thap a revival of the sentiment along that line that had been smoldering for more than ten years.
