Comparative figures for March, 1902 and 1901, are given and also comparative totals for the nine months ending March 31, 1802 and 1901 In all cases the expense items include taxes. In March just past were 3$3,476,858.60; expenses, $2,096,557.06; surplus, $1,380,301.54; miles operated, 6,671.41. 1n March of 1901 the gross receipts were $3,2v4,312.90; expenses, $1,931,647.75; surplu: $1,362,665.15; miles operated, 6,606.40.

November 1t was $2,303,066.48 and during December, January and February the sur- plus has ranged down to the $1,380,30L54 for March, South Omaha Yard Work. After a walt of many months the steel for the new bridges of the Fremont, Blk- horn & Missourl Valley railroad in South Omaha began to arrive yesterday, and it ‘was hoped that this work, so long delayed for want of material, could proceed at once and be soon completed. When the steel was unloaded, however, it was found that the parts not necessary to commence with had been sent, while the essential primi- tive portions had been omitted. Meanwhile the new Elkhorn yard in South Omaha is practically completed. All the fourteen tracks are down and the turn table pit is dug. The bullding of an engine house and the setting in of the turntable will make all ready. Then the connecting track to the Union Paclfic main line will be the only trouble, and it is in this that the bridges and viaducts which demand the steel occur, one street and several other rallroads being crossed. . New Freight Agent Here, In response to the demands of a con- stantly increasing business in Nebraska officlals of the Illinois Central railroad have @etermined to put a traveling freight agent exclusively in this terfltory, with headquar- ters In Omaha. W. M. Frantz, formerly local agent for the road at Fort Dodge, I 18 the latest addition to the already exten- #lve ranks of rallroaders in the Gate City. Mr, Frants started out on his first survey of the territory yesterday. He will work di- rectly under Assistant General Frelgh: Agent J. 8. Weitzell, whose headquarters are here. Mr, Weitzell is much pleased at having this extra offico established in Omaha, the Illinois Central never having bad a traveling freight agent out of here betore. RIGHTS IN EIGHTH STREET Judge Munger Files Opinions in Sults Against Omaha Rai s Judge Munger has filed opinions in the cases brought against the Chicage, St. Paul, Minneapols & Omaha rallroad to restrain that company from laying tracks on Bighth strest and on portious of Farnam and Har- ney streets, near Bighth street. The first case was that which the Burling- ton rallroad brought. The judge recites the history of the case, in which midnight injunctions and suits and countersuits for the condemnation of land were filed in the county and district courts of the state, the entire litigation being finally brought to a Bead in the United States circuit court on an order of removal issued upoun the ap- plication of the defendanmt, the Omaha rail- road. After reviewing the proceedings brjefly, the judge holds that, insofar as the use of Eighth street is copcerned, one company has as much right as another, and the Buriington may not maintain its in- Jupction against the Omaha road, and that the restraining order heretofore issued en- Jolning the latter company from maintain- ing and eperating its track on that street will be dissolved. Taking up another phase of the case, in which the Burlington asks for am injunction mgaiust the Omaha company to restrain it from pursulng con- demnation proceedings to obtaln possession of portions of Howard and Harney streets and lots 1 and 3 of blocks G and H, the Judge says that the lssues luvolved are more of fact than of law and that they should be settled by & jury, For that Teasom he maintains the temparary injunc- tion as to the condemnation proceedings THE OMAHA DAILY BEE TUESDAY, MAY 6, 190 until the case can be.heard and finally de- termined. The second case declded involving the right of the Omaha company is that of the Thomas Davis Real Estate company against the road. In the complaint it was set up | that the presence of the tracka of the rail- | road on the east side of Eighth street would work irreparable Injury to the lots owned by the complainant. The respondent filed a demurrer to the bill, which demurrer was | sustained, the judge holding that the com- | plainant is not without legal remedy in the premises, as the company can be held responsible for any damage which may ac- crue to it by reason of the construction of the tracks, Rallway Note | Person Assistant Auditor Durkee of the Burling- ton has gone to Chioago.

DEALS WITH REASSESSMENT OF TAXES District Judge ;.. Constitational, bat that May from Supreme Court. © ive Aect Intimates Reversal Come City Treasurer Hennings has discovered & decision in a Wisconsin court which he thinks of special interest to Omaha, since this city may find itself involved in slmilar litigation within the next few years or months. The Wisconsin decision was by a district Judge In La Crosse, and the effect of it is to declare constitutional a “cura- tive” act passed by the legislature a year ago, by which several Wisconsin citles were enabled to reassess taxes for public im- provements which had been declared In- valid. Omaha has approximately $2,000,000 in special taxes which have besn held by the courts to be Invalld, and the question of Invoking a special act of the legislature to enable the city to reassess such property has been much discussed. “Unless this Is done,” sald Mr. Hennlngs, “so that the individual beneficlaries will pay for the improvements, the .city will have to stand good for the bonds.” Statement of the Cawe. The Wisconsin case is thus reported by the American Banker: The brick paving case decided in La Crosse by Judge Halsey will be appealed. If the supreme court decides aganst the city, as the indications seem to point, it wiil' mean that Oshkosh, Racine, Janesville, West Superfor and possibly many other cities of the state will have much public improvement work to &0 over again and It will also mean that hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of bonds will be Invall- dated. The history of this case and sim- flar ones in those cities is Interesting and took up much time at the last session of the Wisconsin legislature. These towns, together with La Crosse, a couple of years ago attempted to make improvements of a public nature and charge the cost to the abutting property owners by adopting parts of the general charter laws of the state, fn La (rosse the work was the laying of £20,00_ worth of brick paving. Here the proceedings were twice declared invalld and finally an effort was made to have the legisiature help the city out. Oshkosh had over half a hundred cases pending when _the bill came up and West Superior was confronted with as many. By con- certed effort a bill was gotten through in the form of Section 1, Chapter ix, of the laws of 1901 Right to Reassess. It gave the cities the right to reassess property in such cases where the previous assessment had been declared invalid and have the effect of a valid original assess- ment. It was to test the curative act assed in 1901 that this present suit \ as Brougnt. Judge Halsey decided with ‘the city, but intimated that under the proper statement of facts the law might be held unconstitutional. This point of unconstitu- tionality will be made the strong point when it comes up in the supreme court. “There is considerable such litigation golng on In different parts of the country now,” sald City Treasurer Hennings. I see a master in chancery of the United States circuit court has decided against Stoux City and in favor of a Chicago broker- age firm, which means that the Iowa city must pay bonds in the sum of $150,000. These bonds were issued on spectal asses: ment funds for public Improvements be- tween 1886 and 1891. The city, after re- funding nearly all, said they were illegally issued. The master in chancery found the bondholders were entitled to face value on the original bonds and for the collec- tions In the funds for the refunding bonds. “Omaha’s situatiop is similar to both that of Sloux City and/of the Wisconsin cities save that our litigation has not progressed as far.” No Corm but selected barley-malt and best hops are used In the product of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Ass'n.

Frank Stone was fined $25 and costs for being drunk and disorderly and places the blame of his trouble on the telephone. Stone claimed to be very much In love with Miss Dalsy Plerce, who is employed at 107 South Beventeenth street. Sunday after- noon, while under the influence of liquor, he called for Miss Pierce by telephone and was told that no ome by that mame was known there. The information raised his ire and he told the informant ™Tn no gentle tones what he thought of him. The answer Stone recelved was almost hot enough to burn his ear. Stone then went to the house where Miss Plerce was employed and told her of his treatment by her employer and 'demanded that she leave there forthwith and with him. Miss Plerce tried to calm the enraged lover by telling him that she had been in the house alone all the after- noon and that he bad called the wrong number. Stone then proceeded to enforce his demand that she leave by knocking her | down, beating her and threatening to cut| her with a knife. Neighbors interfered and he was arrested.

She was taken from the county jail to the county hospital Sunday, struggling 80 violently that she almost overpowered the sheriff and his deputy and made it ab- solutely necessary to bind her hands and feet. She had, it is told, been awake and violent for most of three days and had taken no nourishment. As she was ap- parently In the best of health when she left her work Thursday afternoon, her friends are at a loss to account for her trouble, unless it be the result of secret brooding over belng disappointed in her expectation of a promotion in the premium store of a South Omaha packing firm, by whom she was employed as a stenographer.
