On Thureday the mayor and city clerk will be called upon to appear before omo of the judges of the district court and show why they should not sign the issue of general indebiedness bonds ordered about & year ago. The bonds are for $140,000 and are a remewal of indebtedness not yet due The renewal deal was pushéed through the council during the last daye of Mayor Kelly's ‘administration and former Conn- would be n & short time. be made public iy com The arran within a few m edays nts (ITY COUNCIL PROCEEDIN GS (Continued trom First Page.) been waiting for weeks for a full meet- ing to pass it. The ordinance asked by Andrew Rosewster in order to obtain the right to distribute and pell electric energy for heat, light and power, which he pro- posed 10 create by & water-power plant on the Platte river, was thereby defeated. The resolution passed last night fs the one the title of which begins: “An ordinance granting Andrew Rosewater, his successors and assigne or any other person of corpora- tion who mey accept the terms and condi- tions, their successors and assigns, the | right, ete.” In order to become operative it must be ratified by the people at the spring | election. It ie mot the original Rosewater ordinance, which rested on the same basis as the successful ordinance last night, but cilman Ed Johnston financiered the deal For some reason Mayor Kelly refused to sign the bonds, and eo far Mayor Koutsky has declined. The mayor says that peaple are opposed to the deal. The orig- inal bonds were drawing 5 per cent interes At the time the matter came up in the council it was proposed to remew these bonds at 4% per cent. Mayor Kelly pre- sented a veto to the council on this matter and the bonds were never issued. Now those who made the purchase at the time seek to mandamus the council, the mayor and the clerk to issue the renewal bonds. Bankers say that these bonds, If placed on the markét at this time, can be sold for 4% per cent. In defending its side of the case the city is now looking up evidence and copying records. some interesting testimony will be given Better Car Service Needed. The street cars between South Omaha and Omaha are crowded at nesrly all times of the day. More cars are needed, and as this fact has become apparent it has been agreed that a meeting be held for the pur- Ppose of expressing an opinion and request- ing the street car people to put on more cars. It is understood that this meeting will be held some night this week at the council chamber. The oity officiale, includ- ing the mayor, will be invited to attend. What s wanted 1s more cars and the re- tirement from service of some of the cars | which are running with flat wheels.. There seeme to be mo way under the city ordi- nances whereby the city officlals can get action on the street railway company and the only thing that remkins is for a public demonstration of the disapproval of the emall number of cars now in service Plastering Lowell School.

The measure had been read the | first and second times, been advertised and there was not a single barrier in its way The councilmen who have stood pat on the Rosewater ordinance held a short consulta- | tion and evidently agreed that resistance was hopeless, as they made but little. This is the way the vote wenmt: Ayes—Hascall Hoye, Mount, Whitehorn, Karr. Noes— Burkley, Lobeck, Trostler, Zimman Lobeck explained his vote, saying: ‘““This is not the genuine Rosewater ordinance, is not fathered by Mr. Rosewater and has no right to bear his mame. It is Dot what he asked for and 1s not what the eitizens want. His ordinance has been changed so this one is no use to him and one that he can do nothing with.” Councilman Trostler said: “I have found the sentiment of the people against this ordinance and T will not vote for it.” Pass Waterworks Ord! The water works urdinance was a mere matter of formality. 1t declares the ex- pediency and necessity of acquiring the water works under the contract with the company and directs the nppointment of appraisers to fix the value of the property. One appraiser is to be selected by the Water bhoard, the second by the water com- | pany anq the third by the two. Each must |be an engineer. Notification for this to be done will be issued by the city clerk s soon as the Water board organizes, which will be on the ‘evening of March 4 City Electrician Schurig submitted a re- port that was sent to the finance commit- tee, cnd which related to placing the wires of the fire and police alarm system down- town entirely under ground. He gave two plans, one by which the conduits of the tel. ephone company in the alleys are to be used as at present, lateral conduits to be constracted to the boxes on the street corpers, and the other for the comstruction of independent conduits. The first plan will cost $5,497 to execute and the second 5,554 Rosewater 1o secure a inasmuch as it grants corporation the Streets to Be Cleamed.

Feb. 24.—When the debate on Mr, Beckett's amendment to the address in ‘ reply to the king’s epeech 'was resumed in the House of Commons today the attack on War Secretary Brodrick was continued. ‘Winston Spencer Churchill, conservative, declared Mr. Brodrick’s expectations had only been realissd in two directions, namely, in the decresse in the number of volunteers and in the incremse of expendi- tures. There were, Mr. Churchill sald, fewer bayonets and sabres in the British army in proportion to the mumber of generals than in any army in the world, except the Ven- ezuelan. The speaker further declared that the whole army corps scheme was & “humbug and & sham, and was only introduced with the object of militarising England.” He asked where the government expected the three army corps intended for forelgn serv- ice to oper: Only Useful America. was mnot in South Africs and such a was not needed on the Indian from- They certeinly could not contemplate Agnin 1t force tier. | the three army corps operating in Canada, because the United States was “no more prepared to invade Canada than Great Brit- aln was prepsred to invade the United Btates.” The house fina by 261 to 145.
