THE OMAHA DAI LY BEE: TUESDAY JANUA RY 13, 1903. ) WALKER DROPS HIS PROTEST | Last of the Brewery Licsnses Are Given Out t by Bxel o Board ONLY FOUR APPLICATIONS ARE WAITING Who Did Net Eariy Enoug Given P ertise ave Not Yet Been wion o Sell v B. Walker was not present at the moeeling of the Board of Fire and Police commissioners last night to push his pro- | test against the Issuance of certain liquor lcenses applied for by the Storz Brewiog ( company. Instead there was presented a communication to which Walker's name was signed and In which It was briefly stated that he withdrew all objection and consented to the issuance of the licenses Thereupon the board approved the bonds [ and granted the fifteen licenses which had been held up by the Walker protests. This | disposed of all of the pending remonstrances | and leaves but four applications still to be | acted upon, the delay in those cases being due 10 the fact that the publication of the required legal notices has not been com- pleted. The applications are those of George W. Tierney, 1101 South Ninth street; L. J. Kramer, 1419 Jackson street; Charles Metz, 105 South Twelfth street, and Henry Rolff, 1507-9 Capitol avenue. When these are all granted, as it {s expected they will be, there will be ome more saloon than last year. The licenses granted In favor of the dif- ferent brewing companies are divided as follows: Metz Bros. Brewing company, 51; Storz Brewing company, 44; Fred Krug Brewing company, 41; Schlits Brewing com- pany, 40; Anhouser-Busch Brewing com- pany, 15; Pabst Brewing company, 6; Jetter Brewing company, 6; Blatz Brewing com- pany, 6; Willlam J. Lemp Brewing com- pany, 4; Willow Springs Brewing company, 3; Gettelman Brewing company, 1; whole- sale dealers, 13. The application of V. B. Walker to con- duct a saloon at 1314-1318 Dodge strect was denied for the reason that the petition bhsd not the required number of signer: In compliance with an order of Judge Baxter of the district court the board directed that a transcript be made of the testimony in the protest of Beard Bros. and others against the granting of a license to N. V. Halter, 1402 Douglas street. In the capacity of Fire and Police com- mission the board considered the case of | 8. E. Brown, who, while employed as a police officer, was injured in the elevator at the Boerd of Trade building some eight months ago. Brown, stating that he would still be unable to walk a beat for thirty or sixty days to come, had applied to the board for some employment that would not | require him to be upon his feet so much. but would pay him some salary. He was assigned to duty in the Health department, where he will be required to work but halt of each day. DEATH RECORD.

McDonald presided at yester- day afternoon’'s meeting of the department of political and social science at the Omaha Woman's club, the laws goveraing the state penitentiary being the subject of dis- fon. Mrs. W. P. Harford presented a m interesting review of the warden's report of 1900, touching upon the variety of crimes, recommendations regarding the wearing of stripes, the places from where like matters. A general discussion followed with compari- sons of other state penitentiaries. Mrs. B, B. Towle, assistant leader, pre- sided in the absence of the leader at the business meeting. Mrs. Tilden reported baving reccived two sacks of seeds from the Department of Agriculture through Senator Millard, and it was recommended by the de- partment that the Pingree garden system 80 succesafully managed under the auspices of the club last summer be undertaken again next summer. There was some dis cussion of the proposed juvenile court bill, the draft of which has not yet been com- | pleted, but petitions are being sent by the malority of the clubs of the state federa- tion, for the passage of such a bill Dr. Abby Virginia Holmes, under tho auspices of the educational committee of the Young Woman's Christlan association, addressed the members of the association last evening upon “What a Woman Ought The lecture was fllustrated and was largely attended. A meeting of the federated clubs of St. Louts has been called for next Saturday aft- ernoon at 3 o'clock, when a local biennial board will be appolnted to provide for and manage the entertalnment of the biennial convention of the General Federation of Women's Clubs to be held there in 1904 The varfous clubs will be represented by one delegate for each $100 that they con- tribute to the blennial entertalnment fund The Wednesday club, being the largest and most influential club of the eity, will con- trol the board, being entitled from monoy already subscribed to thirty delegates. The Tuesday club will have four delegates and the Monday elub of Webster Grove, one of the suburbs, will have three. As a promiment and popular member of the Wednesday club, and recognized as one of the most able women of the Missour! Federation, Mrs. Phillip N. Moore, Is looked to as the probable president of the blennial board, and there seems little doubt that she will be elected to that office at Saturday’s meeting. Since The preliminary detalls of the preparation for the biennial have become known, favorable mention h come from a half dozen different sections of the country of Mrs. Moore's name for the presidency of the General Federation— not necessarily for the next term, as pre- cedent will be favorable to the re-election of Mrs. Dennison, but this fact will be all the more In Mrs. Moore's favor, for with a successful biennial to her eredit, and everybody Is \confident that the St Louls meeting will be a success, and that blennial two years back, with her other prominent connection with the General Foderation, she will be a strong candidate. A Chicago woman recently gave this her reason for holding membership in the Social Economics club: “I ecan say what 1 think and think what I feel and be any- thing that I choose,” Mrs. Herman J. Hall, president of the Woman’s Auxiliary of the American Park nd Outdeor Art assoclation, is in Cleve- land, O., where she will be the guest of honor at a reception on Wednesday, given by the National Health Protective associa- tion, Congress of Mothers and the local art association. Following the reception there will be a mass meeting for the pur- pose of forming & branch of the American Park association. It Is sald that London has never ex- perienced anything like the present craze among women of the better and wealthier s for organizing clubs. Societies of all nds and of all aizes have been and are being organized and asartments for meeting purposes have been fitted up that have already amounted to a fortune to the furniture dealers and fitters who have been fortunate enough to get contracts for fur- nishing them. The discussion of a bill granting suffrage to taxpaying women has extended beyond the suffrage organizations of Illinols and is coming In for a good share of attention of most of the women's clubs of the state. Mrs. George Watkins, General Federation secretary of the Illinols Federation, was in- vited to address the educational depart- ment of the Uatholic Women's National league at thelr rooms in the Masonic tem. ple last week, her talk bringing out an enthusiastic discussion and the fact that a large majority of the women not only approved suffrage for taxpaylng women, but full suffrage for all women. oldest settlers of this community. She leaves a husband and three children.

WILSON WHISKEY. n-wmu That's All! FIRE DESTRO\S PAINTINGS|GIVES UP NAVAL STATIONS| AFFAIRS AT SULTH OMAHA Blase in an Art Store Does Much Damage to Contents. TOTAL LOSS ABOUT NINE THOUSAND Second Floor of the Rose Store s Cleaned Out and Mueh Incl, Destruction Wrought by Flames, Fire was discovered shortly after 7 o'clock yesterday evening in the second story of the McCaffrey building, 1519-1521 Dodge street, and alarms turned in. The blaze originated fn the second story over Rose's art store, In the framing department, where stored piles of frame mouldings wrapped in excelsior and other inflammable material. The loss to the bullding is esti- mated at $1,000, which is small considering the material in which It started. Mr. J. U. Rose, manager of the Rose art store, was unable to make a close guess on the damage to the stock until he had had time for careful inspection. He, however, said that the loss would be at least $6,000, and probably more. Gordon Coutts, in- structor in the art school on the second | floor of the art store, loses something more than $1,300 on his pictures which were on exhibition. The Commercial +estaurant proprietors, Lauritsen & Milling, place their loss at $200. M. S. Hazleton, who rooms on | the third floor, suffered about Other roomers suffered lesser losses from smoke. McCaffery’s loss is covered by insurance, as is also a good part of the Rose loss. The Merchants is also insured, but the others are not The cause of the fire is unknown. Mr. Rose was at work In the store and noticed a gleam of light up the stairway. He ran up and found the stairs blazing above the second floor. He ran to telephone an alarm. C. T. Willlams, who was passing the bulld- ing, noticed flames through the second story windows and turned in a call at about the same time. Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were at supper and noticed smoke pouring up around the radiator pipes. They alarmed the other roomers. The fire Lurned out the second floor over the Rose store and broke through to the third in the rooms of M. 8. Hazleton. The front half of the art store is little damaged, but the pictures at the rear were soaked with water and smoke. The restaurant suffered somewhat from water, but the loss was mostly in the kitchen. Mr. Coutts has been in this country only four weeks. His paintings, which were fig- ures, are ruined and he had no insurance. Hugh McCaffery {s the sole owner of the building.

Stringfellow at 3711 North Twenty-second street was nearly destroyed by fire yes- terday evening shortly after 7 o'clock. The house and contents were valued at $2,500, with $2,000 insurance. The loss was about two-thirds of the value. The fire was due to some defect in the furnace, which sent the flames through all the hot-air pipes, setting the building on fire in several places. Second Assistant Chlef Dineen fell through the flooring !ato the basement, which contained two feet of water, but was not hurt. Mr. Stringfellow is a bookkeeper in the United States supply house. HALF - MILLION - DOLLAR BLAZE Leather Belting Factory in New Yerk City in NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—Fire this mornin destroyed the eight-story bullding at Allen | and East Houston streets, which was oc- cupled by Fayerweather & Ladew, manufac- turers of leather belting. The loss will ex- ceed $500,000. | The firm had 1,000 employes, who will tewporarily be out of employment. Large quantities of oil and grease were stored in the building and these made the fire fiercely hot and caused two explosions. ' One of them nearly caught a squad of firemen with sheets of flames and as a result of the other a water tower was destroyed. The occupants of all nearby bulldings, in- cluding a thickly populated tenement house, were driven out. A portion of one of the walls fell on the Second avenue elevated structure and crushed a girdle. A battalion of fifteen men, working on the rallroad, got out of the way just in time to save their lives. The origin of the fire is not known. ‘While the loss on the building was esti- mated at about §300,000, George Hull, one of the managers of the firm, said at stock valued at over $500,000 had been destroyed. The firm carried $621,000 insurance. Edward Ladew sald that their employes, who had been temporarily thrown out of work, would be sent to the firm's factories at Fall River, Newark and Charlotte.

N h| The coal situation in South Omaha is 8 | really precarious. The packers are begin- ning to wonder where they will get enough S | to keep the bollers going. At the Cudahy O | plant there is very little steam coal on Y| hand, at Swift's the situation is a little better, but at Armour's and the Omaha there is only a day's supply on hand. In- quiry in the yards last night showed that there was only two days' supply of coal on hand. Instead of the usual receipt of sixty cars last night, only forty cars came in and these will be used up before another twenty-four hours rolis around The rule of the packers now is to buy all coal in sight and pay what is asked for it. One of the packing house managers said that he did not lay the blame so much on the raflroads as he did on the miners. But it is & fact that packers have bought | coa! and bad representatives see the same loaded and these cars would be diverted or confiscated en route. For nearly two weeks now little it any bituminous coal has been unloaded here, although all of the local dealers have orders in from a dozen dif- ferent mines. Anthracite coal is being quoted here at Y | $16 per ton, with none to sell, while Illi- | nots coal, usually sold below $5, 16 now being sent out at $6.75 & ton and there is little of that to be had. Poor people are suffering to some extent und it has devolved upon the charity com- mittee of the council to provide means to supply coal for Indigent persons.

No Council Meetin, There was no quorum of the council last night and the mayor did net even order the roll called, consequently the next meet- Ing of the city fathers will be held one _ | week from last night. It was stated that - | the reason for no quorum was’the'lack of business. The finance committee looked over the reports and decided that there was - | nothing to 40 and, as the chairmen of other committees bad mothing to report, it was decided that there was no necessity for a meeting. Of this decision, however, Mayor Koutsky was kept in the dark. He fully expected a meeting and a report on some communications now in the hands of com- mittees. City Attorney Murdock also present and was ready to present to the council an ordinance providing for a meat inspector for the city of South Omaha. This ordinance will now have to go over for one week unless & special meeting Is - | called, and this the mayor will hardly sanction, as he was present at the time of roll call last night, when all of the mem- bers of the council were absent. Captain Austin Surprised. Captain James Austin, one of the well © | known government Inspectors at the Union stock yards, was surprised last night when he reached home to find that the house was tull of friends who had gathered to con- gratulate him on the twentieth anniversary About fifty friends from Omaba and South Omaha were present and an agreeable evening was spent after Cap- tain Austin and his wife recovered from thelr surprise at the arrival of so many guests. A handsome combination book ca and writing desk was precented to Captain Austin, while his wife was presented with an elegant set of Haviland china. Delegation Leaves.

Indigestion Causes Catarrh of the Stomach. For many years It has been supposed that Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re. peated attacks of indigestion inflames the mucous membranes lining the stomach and exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus- ing the glands to secrete mucin instead of the juices of natural digestion. This is called Catarrh of the Stomach. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure relieves all inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the stomach, protects the nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings, & cordance with the recent reorganization | Insurance adjusters settled the loss on | plans of the club, designed to settle the | the Martin block yesterday.
