it L f AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA Buildivg O¢d n Or'er of the ¥ y Enlorood by CITY ENGINEER TO ACT A% INSPECTOR nd Liversmen Cometery— trer Mamlo Chty Gonelp, From this tlme on the hullding Inapect s depart of ety will be looked after carefully and the provielons of the ordinance are to be enforced. Herman Beal, the city engineer. knows somethifg about bullding and Mayor Koutaky has as slgned him 1o look after building affairs for & time. For somo time past bulldinge have been erocted without any notice hav ing been given, and no record of the same made at the eity ofcos. It Is the inten- tlon of the city government to keep an ac- curate record of all bulldings erected and all repairs made in order that a proper report may be made when a request for the same i made. Other cities send In requests for information on this subject and comparisons with cities of the same €lass are mado. In order to make & proper showing Mayor Koutsky holds that all permitn should be registered, and in addi- tion that o reasonable fes should be pald. In order that this end may be accom- plished It is Intended that the ordinance be enforced to the extent that plans and specifications of any and all buildings above certain dimensions be submitted to the city engineer or the building inspector for approval Only recently City Engineer Beal had occaston to go to the Cudahy plant for some information about a new building be- Ing erected. He was me' by Mr. Talia ferro and turned down {n great shape. To make it plain Mr. Beal was told to go along about his business. Mr. Ceal, how- evor, insisted that his duty was to see what improvements were being made, the clerk in one of the departments having sent over & check for $3 for an $300 build- ing. After some parley Beal was per- mitted to inspect the bullding, and he es- timated the cost at not less than $3,000 When the fact was made plain to Mr. Taliaterro that Mr. Beal understood his bus| and knew that 160,000 brick had been used In the construction of the build- g & new pormit was requested. This brought the matter to the attention of the mayor and couneil. Want Better Road. A petition was presented to the city counell some months ago signed by the undertakers and liverymen of the city ask- ing the authorities to gpen Jackson streot from Rallroad avenue to the mortheast corner of Laurel Hill eometery. At the time the petition was presented it was referrcd to the stréet and alley committee. Chairman Welsh of the com- mittes visited Union Paeific headquarters A number of times in an attempt to have the rallroad permit the city to use a por- tion of its right of way in order that a bet- ter road could bo secured to the cemetery. On the part of the eity the officlals pro- posed to fence the portion of the right of way and keep It in repair. One excuse after another was given until yesterday, when the announcement wa: that the Union Pacific would nelther counoll will cast about for other means of securing a good road to The crossing at Jackson #treet may be ordersd opened. If such is the case the Union Pacific will be com- 12 yoars of suse veasful practice im Oarana.

At Seymour and the other lakes adjacent to South Omaha the cutting of ice was stopped on account of the overcrowded ! condition of the houses and for want of room to stack on the out The Rezek Verdiet. There seems to be a difference of opinion on the verdict in the Rezek cash. While the testimony conflicting to some ex- tent, the members of the jury felt it to be their duty to return a verdiet in accord- ance with the evidence. As Shea was not in evidence, there wero only a few wit- nesses who appeared for him and the con- sequence was that the showing made did not carry much welght with the jury. It is now up to the county attorney to file a complaint against Shea and have a pre- liminary hearing. On account of Stea be- ing 111 it is possible that the preliminiry hearing will be waived.

SHIPMENTS WAIT ON SPRING THAW Ratlronds Still Unable to Handle Con- slgnments Offered and Merchants Conseqnently Look Anxlously for Lake Navigation. NEW YORK, Feb. R. G. Dun & Co.’ Weekly Heview of Trade tomorrow will say: Disproportion between supply and de- mand ls still a factor of strength in many commodities as to skilled and in some while similar conditions exist labor, retarding much work, cases postponing important | undertakings Wages have advanced In response to the demands of organized labor.

Earnings continue to show splendid gains over former ycars, January returr thus far exceeding 1902 by 9.4 per cent and 1% by 18.7 per cent. Staples All Flourish. Orders for spring shipments are heavy in_all staple lines and the advance busi- ness for fall I8 unusually large, testifying to the confidence of buyers in continued prosperity. Sound conditions still continue to prevall deliveries until in the iron and steel industry, with few developments of note. Coke f3 in some- what better supply, making it possible to Operate. blast furnaces with fess inter- ruption than was experlenced when the month opened, but there is coastant com- plaint of the scarcity and high prices com- manded by pig iron. Finished steel pro- ducts have not risen proportionately, al- though they are in good demand. Large exports of wire and wire nalls are re- ported, the movement being heaviest to Australia, South America and Europe With the’ advahcing season there 1s a bet- ter movement of merchant pipe and kind- red lines, while structural material is also in more urgent request. The demand for rallway equipment shows no diminution and another forelgn order for steel rails could not be accepted, because deliveries were required in May. Cotton Exceptionally High. Cotton has taken the leading position of the great staples, both as to extent of advance and volume of speculative trans- actions. Vietble supplies are lower than the corresponding date In any year of the last decade, and it is an unusual day when exports do not exceed receiptd. For- elgn spinners are busy, domestic mills con- sume freely, while there is business in sight for more cotton goods than present stocks of 1aw material at the mills will make. Several grades of cotton goods have ad- yanced in price. which, with gains in other divisions of the market during preceding weeks, makes the level of quotations much higher. A large attendance of buyers is reported, stimulating activity with jobbers and at first hands, Cash sales are restricted by low supplies. Domestic consumption supplies most of the business, as export inquiries are light. port business has increased in New gland footwear factories, with good orders for April delivery of calfskin shoes. In the leather market the chief event has been an active demand, with higher prices for belting butts. Low supplies of sole leather give strength, and quer stock is in better request. Domestic hides weaken as the advancing season brings poorer rades to market. gRestricted receipts of ry hides sustain values, imports from Central America commanding a fractional advance. . Little change occurred in ‘meats, but mild weather in this vicinity brought such a heavy movement of eggs that the price fell be for the week, making a decline of 1lc a dozen within a week. Failures for this week numbered 230 in the United States, against 240 last year, and 20 in Canada, compared with 33 a year ago. CANNOT GET, ENOUGH LABOR. Bradstreets Says Employers All Over Country Want More Workmen. NEW YORK, Feb, 13.—Bradstreet's morrow will say: Distributive tradé and productive indus- try feel the influence ~of spring-like weather, slightly better coliections, steady and even strong prices in staples, impro ment in the raiway transportgtion and cheaper ana better supplies of coal in the east An_additional favorable feature not as yet given.full credence is the signing of the new bituminous wage scale, by walch any possible unsettiement {rom this source 1s prevented. Mild weather makes for increased activ- ity in outdoor work, while active move- ments in lumber, structural iron and eteel, bullders’ haraware and a myraid of other lines lead to the belief that the present season, notwithstanding higher prices ot materials, wili witness immense building operations. In this connection cogi must be taken ot the Feports coming from widely separated sections, indicating a scarcity of labor. In the south increased railway bullding, lumbering operations and a diversification of industry genera'ly has drawn heavily upon the labor available for the cotton fields, and a less increase In the acreage than might have been expected is theretore looked for in this line. A bal- ance to tnis, howefer, may be found in the present high price of the staple. in'the northwest labor is scarce in the lumbering inaustry and, generally speak- ing, it might be said that manual labor the' country over finds a ready market. all in all, the situation ls one practically never equaled before at this time, confirming enrlier predictions that the first haif or the year 1% was secure beyond peradven- ure. Perhaps the most notable feature in the entire situation ls the fact that present high prices do not as yet seem to check consumption.

Twenty-five dollars will be more than enough to equip the hospital for all the patients it now contains—six or will e much the same as one year ago, when they held a similar confest here. [ seven.

An article in the current number of Mc- Clure's Magazine, called ““The Surgery of Light” and written by Cleveland Moffett, set Dr. Ralph to wondering why the Fin- sen method could not be introduced into the local emergdncy hospital. It di1 not take him very long to conclude that the treatment could be Installed at very slight cost, at least in a crude but generally suf- clent way. Dr. Nells Finson is the individual who has become famous through his discovery of the wonderful curative effect of blue or ultra-violet rays when applied to such dis- s as lupus, cancer, etc. The discovery of the value of darkness and red rays in Installed favorite, with Princess Titania a | Smallpox cases was made in the early second cholce.

Results: el B i i oo He stumbled across the truth ono day while reading a pamphlet pubiished in 1532 by Dr. Pictou in New Orleans. Incidentally it was mentioned that a number of soldlers imprisoned In a dungeon had taken Cmall- pox and had recovered quickly without scarring or suppuration of the pustules. Cleveland Moffett describes the progress of the experiments “No attempt was made at explanation, but the mere fact was sufficient for Fin- sen, who in a fiash of Insight seized upon & truth that had lain here for years, under- stocd by no one. The soldiers had recov- ered without scarring simply because, be- ing In the dark cells, they were protected against the irritating actinic rays, the same blue rays that dieturbed the earthworms so. No one knew better than Finsen how much harm these rays can do, even to a normal and healthy skin by sun burning. . How much greater harm, he reasoned, must these rays work if allowed to fall on an in- flamed sensitive cuticle like that of a small- pox patient. It was, therefore, tlear to him that such patients should be kept elther in darkness, like Dr. Plotou's prisoner ing? he asked himself.” Result The result of an experiment was a tri- umph for Finsen and was summed_up like this by Dr. Svendsen: “The period of sup- puration, the most dangerous and most painful stage ot smallpox, did not appear; there was no elevation of temperature and no edema. The patients entefed the stage of convalescence immediately after the period of vaccination, which seemed a lit- tle prolonged. The hideous scars were avolded.” A very little daylight was found to work harm. In ordinary a cloar, red light, strong enough for the patient to read, {8 all that is necessary. In bad cases the light must' be dark red. All this is what it is proposed to do for persons unfortunate enough to be taken sick with smallpox and confined in the emergency hospital at Oma of an Experiment. 044 Fellows Temple Company Falls, CINCINNATI, Feb. 13.—The 0dd Fellows 'l‘alnple_l";ol'l'lplnvl of Clnlcl{m::l :l.l:":l::l ‘l:‘ 4 assets consis aYied Tne o000, on which the Centrai | trom lost vitality, | weription tree | and lasting cure.
