RAILROADS MAY ENJOIN CITY They Are Expected to Oarry Oontroversy te Btats Courts. ssment LIKELY TO DELAY THE TAX LEVY SOME Entirs Insue Tarning on Constitution- ality of Exemption Clause in Char- ter May He Settled by In- Junction Proceedings, While there have been no new develop- ments of A manifest character in the rail- rond assessment cases since the adjourn- ment of the Board of Equalization it 18 generally understood that the controversy as to the city's right raliroad property independently will be taken to the courts for as speedy adjudicatfon as pos- sible. An attorney for one of the raliroads prin- cipally affected has said that plans have been perfected to institute proceedings in court at an early day to contest the assess- ment, The present plan is to apply for an injunction to restrain the mayor and city to to assess council from imposing a levy upon the rail- | road property as it is assessed, and the case will be brought in the state rather than the federal courts. Advantage in Taking Initiative. By taking the initiative the railroads se- eure the choice of the tribunal flefore which the application shall be made and will be able to go before that judge In the district court which they think most favorable to their contention. It is sald that they can bAng into injunction procecdings the entire {skue turning on the censtitutionality of the exemption clause of the charter, which has been ignored on the ground that it is In conflict with the constitutional provisiow with reference to uniformity of taxation within the taxing district. Whichever way the lower court may de- cide the ¢ will be appealed to the supreme court and it will doubtless be advanced in the same manner as the franchise tax cases last year. May Hold Up Levy Ordinance. The most serious feature of the in- junction method of testing the assessment would be that it would hold up the levy ordinance again until a final dacision is reached and thus prevent the city from drawing upon its tax resources for 1903 Last year the levy was held up four months and all of the city officers and employes kept out of their salaries for that length of time. They were got even able to get warrants to discount, but had to make assignments of their salaries to get money advanced to them. Whether they will have to go through this priva- tion again will depend upon the prompt- ness with which the courts act I the levy 1s enjoined. THREE IN BUTTER BUSINESS Pollce Corral a Trio that Engaged in Trading Pound Prints for Lonesome Drinks. Three walking dairies were arrested Sat- urday evening when Charles W. Lewis, Billy Martin and Henry Johnson, a colored pal, were arrested while peddling butter on Six- teenth street. When taken into custody Lewls had his pockets filled with one-pound prints of butter, while Martin was simi- larly laden. The officers traced the men by their sales and found that the butter, while in thelr possession had depreclated rapidly in market value, and when put up at Me- Kenzle's saloon brought only the price of one drink. At Kruse's saloon, 623 North Bixteenth street, the price of butter sud- denly leaped several points on the market and brought two driuks. While continying thelr search of the commercial value of the product the officers located Johnson at the corner of Twelfth and Capitol avenue, dis- | posing of one-pound prints with a lavish hand. All three men were arrested and will have a hearing Tuesday. I This for You. Dr. King's New Life Pills puta vim, vigor and new life into every nerve, muscle and organ of the body. Try them. 25c.

There the chief busi- ness was an object lesson in loading. The idea In this gathering is the improve- ment cf the service by Increasing the busi- ness perspective and the detalled knowledge of the freight agents relative to their de- partment of rallroading. The agents of the lowa division meet once a month for this purpose, gathering at different polnts on the line in turn. Thus they becomo fa- iliar eventually with the conditions and the facilities all over their road. This was their first visit to Cmaha. The visiting agents were: L. L. Smullen, Clinton; R. H.

Information has been received by Chief Donahue, notifying him that Mrs. Nellic Prince, who was arrested in Chicago upon the charge of the Omaha department that she had stolen $500 werth of furs from the Kilpatrick store, had been released on a cash bond of $1,500. The hearing of Mrs. Prince in Chicago, that it may be de- tormined whetber the charge will warrant her return to this city, will be held Wednesday. Mrs. Prince has retained the law firm of Kern & Fuller to defend her and will put up a bitter fight to prevent being brought back to Omaha. While speaking of the noted prisoner Monday, the chief said that she had never been known to pay for any stolen goods and had never spent & day in the penitentiary, though she had been under arrest and had been tried innumerabls times. Mrs. Prince is sald to possess considerable property in Des Moines, and also in Chicago Helghts, a suburb of Chi- cago. Her estate is walued at over $30,000. Chief Donahue stated yesterday that a well known and able lawyer in Chicago would be retained by the city to care for this city's interests in the proceedings. The chief expects to attend the hearing. He also expects that Chiet Dunn of the detective department, It the court rules in Omaha's favor, will return with his pris- oner not later than Thursda: FINDS BROTHER MURDERED Amos Glazer of Omaha Reads of the Killing of Hi§ Missing Relative. Amos Glazer, a gardener, who resides on Fort street, r the boulevard, has lo- cated his long lost brother, Gus Glazer, through the medium of a news item in an Omaha paper. The article stated that Gue Glazer, a third cook in the Washington hotel, Kansas City, had been shot and killed by C. Posen, a dishwasher in the same hotel. Glazer died while enroute to the hospital. Thinking that perhaps it whs his rela- tive, from whom mnot a word had been heard in some years, Amos Glazer sought the services of Chiet of Police Donahue, who sent the news item and a letter to Chief Haynes of the Kansas City depart- ment with a request that an investiga- tion be made to determine the identity of tho dead man. Yesterday & reply was recelved which stated that the murdered man was & brother of Amos Glazer of this clty. Glazer sald yesterday that his brother was formerly employed in the Henshaw and Schlitz cafes prior to his departure for the south, and that since he left not a word had been recelved from him as to his whereabouts. Glazer will be unable to go to Kansas City to attend the funeral of his dead brother. COPY OF KELLY CONTRACT Mr. Hoobler's Lawyer W Attorney W. A. DeBord, for George W. Hoabler, called gt the rooms of the county commissioners yesterday to again re- quest to see the bond contract entered into by the commissioners and the firm of Kelly & Kelly at the time of the refunding of the $268,000 issue last spring. Commissioner Harte showed him a copy of the contract, with the explanation that it had just been received from Kelly & Kelly in response to a request sent after Mr, DeBord called last Friday. Monday afternoon the attorney had a copy of the copy made, and sald: “Until I can show this to Mr. Hoobler and talk over the matter with him I cannot say what action he will take. I will say, however, satisfactory thing to be shown. The con- tract itself belongs here In the county clerk's office, and I cannot understand how the commissioners could have let so im- portant a document get away. If Kelly & Kelly really have it the commissioners should demand its return at once and let the brokers hold the ‘copy.

DUE TO BURT'S PIECE WORK SYSTEM Order Putting New Method in Foree Posted in Shops and Walkout of Men Affected Pol- lows at Once. The locomotive wood workers and pipe- men at the Union Pacific shops went on strike yesterday. The efforts of President Burt to force the plecework system on the men still employed at the shops brought about this latest accession to the ranks of the strikers. When the wood workers appeared for workl yesterday they found an order from the foreman to the effect that after this date they would be paid by the plece. Fifteen of the men immediately rejected the new terms and they were discharged. At noon thirty-five more of the wood workers walked out on strike, leaving only two or three men in *he Aepartment. Heretofore the men have been working by the hour and they assert that they would be unable to do nearly so well by the plece. “We would rather starve not working than starve working,” said one of the strikers Up to this time the wood workers had |mot been concerned in the strike of the machinists, boiler makers and blacksmiths, as 1o attempt had been made to introduce the plecework system with them, and they were satisfled with the wages they were earning by the hour. Recently the wood workers, in anticipa- tion of trouble with the company, formed | an organization, which will be affiliated with | the American Federation of Labor. All of | the wood workers at the Union Pacific shops, with the exception of the two or | three who did not walk out yesterday, are in | the mew union. | Pipe Struck Friday. The trouble with the pipemen began Fri- day, when the first orders to put them on plecework was posted at the shope. All of the plpemen laid down thelr tools, re- fusing to proceed under the new order. At the request of the foreman they walted | at the shops until communication was had | with headquarters and the order for plece- work was rescinded. Then the men went back to their tasks after a suspension of operations for half an hour. Pipemen were of the opinion that their troubles had ceased, but when one of the leaders, John Ennis, finished his week's work Saturday night, he was notified that his services would be no longer required. It was the discharge of Mr. Ennis that caused the pipemen to strike yesterday morning. They appeared at the shops with & request for the reinstatement of Mr. Ennis and when this was denied they walked out. sen New Thirteen-Cent Stamp, A new stamp containing the portrait of one of our late presidents is about to be issued by the government.

Wood, was found dead fn bed at his resi- dence near Twenty-fifth street and Indiana avenue Sunday morming by members of his household. The cause of death is & mys- tery, though it is supposed Mr. Wood died from an overdose of oplum, which was pre- scribed by his physician, or from disease contracted while in the Philippine service. Wood was known to have used oplum to alleviate his pain and he is supposed to | have administered an overdose the night before his death. Wood served with the Thirty-ninth volun- teer infantry in the Philippine islands where he won the admiration of his officers by his gallantry and fine service. The serv- ice in the islands shattered his health, and for the last two years he had suffered from the exposure endured in the army. RING WORM AND DANDRUFF, | They Are Each Caused by a Pestifer- ous Germ., Ring worm and dandruff are somewhat similar in their origin; each is caused by a parasite. The germ that causes dan- druft digs to the root of the hair, and saps its vitality, eausing falling bair, and, | inally, baldness. Without dandruff there would never be baldness, and to cure dan- druff it is necessary to kill the germ. There has been no halr preparation that would do this until the discovery of Newbro's Herpicide, which positively kills the dandruff germ, allays {tcHing in- stantly and makes hair glossy and soft as silk.

WANTS TO BE A DETECTIVE Countryman with In Niek Carter App n Job, this where they hire the ‘fiy cop- pers' ™ Aroused by the question, W, I. Kier- stead looked up from his work and saw standing at the rail in his office a stranger whose entire presence bespoke the rural districts. He was burly, muscular and healthy looking as to phyeique, and his earnestness and simplicity of expression and his clothes and bearing indicated very plainly that he was not “city broke." Knowing that the youth must have asked { the question serfously but marveling at the same time at the language in which it was couched, Mr. Klerstead replied: “This is the office of the Board of Fire and Polico | Commissioners, and here s where you make application for any position on the police torce.” But 1 don't want to be a policeman,” explained Jasper. “I don’'t want to walk a | beat, but to be a secret detective, a fly | copper, don't you see.” Then Mr. Kierstead recognized the fact that he was “up againet” ome of the Nick | Carter, Old Sleuth or Sherlock Holmes boys | with a large stpply of inspiration from the | 10-cent libraries, and proceeded to let him down as easily as possible. A few more questions developed the fact that the daunt- less and ambitious Rube, fired with am- bition to ferret out crime, had just come to Omaha from somewhere out in the state, | 80 Mr. Kierstead told him he could not be | appointed to the police force in any ca- pacity without having been a resident of | Omaha at least a year. Then after warn- | ing him not to hold any parley with two young men about & lock, and under circumstances to lend any money to an body to pay freight bills, with the custom- ary admonitions as to keeping out of the way of street cars and live wires, Mr. Kierstead sent his visitor sorrowing on his | way.

She sald her hus- band, who was arrested at her instiga- tlon for being drunk and disorderly, had $6 in his possession when the police searched him, while she was without food and the house rent was due. No meat nor flour, she said, had been purchased by the hus- band and she was in destitute circum- stances. Gardner was brought from the cell room and confronted by his wife, Gardner told the judge that the har- mony of his home had been shattered by the continuous accusations of his wife, who, upon the least provocation, he sald, | would rush for an officer and have him | thrown into jall upon the charge of being drunk. She says she wants to support her- self,” suggested the court. ‘Well, that would be satisfactory to me,” sald the prisoner, “but I want to do the best I can for the baby.” “Then give her,$3 of the $6 you have downstalrs until your hearing tomorrow, that she and the baby may live,” sald the Judge.

Among the business concerns of the clty omitted from the assessment rolls altogether was the local branch of the St. Joseph Plow company and when this was discovered by Mr. Fleming Friday night he reported the company mentloned. with & number of others, to the board for citation. Because of lack of time no cita- tion_was issued, but the local manager of the St. Joseph Plow company having heard of the matter from Mr. Fleming, sent word that his firm had no desire to escape taxation in Omaha and would willingly pay taxes on an assessment of $3,000, which was the amount mamed by the tax commissioner and which he belleved to be about the value of the company's stock in Omaha between September 15 and No- vember 15.

In regular term procedure the last work of Judge Baxter in No. 1 was the arralgn- son and the sentencing of Sylvester to three years in the state penitentiary at hard labor.

The judge said “three years, ry solemnly and very sternly, and everybody looked impreseed—except the prisoner. He kept right on grinning and said “Thank, you, sah,” just as pleasantly as though he had been given $3 instead of three years.
