The legislative committee, which has been in Lincoln, made its re- port in regard to the garnishee and female labor bills. The committee was unable to influence the legislature in regard to the former, but belleves that it had a favor- able influence on the latter, which had not yet come to a vote. W. B. Stryker was elected and installed as financlal secretary fn place of J. A Babst, who bad tendered his resignation. The ~newly formed union, No. 176, of laundry workers had a delegation present and usked for recognition from the central union. The matter was taken under ad- visement. Egg Inspectors and Butter Workers' union No. 9000 presented a new charter, by which all old and outstanding matters are eliminated and dropped. The unlon also premented a new scale of wages, which makes a slight increase of p some lines of the work. Nearly an hour was taken up by the dis- cussion of a letter from Clneinnati in re- gard to the controversy between the union the Brewery Employee's union in regard to the engineers and firemen working fin breweries. It was finally decided to lay the matter on the table pending some de- cision by the American Federation of Labor. DEATH RECORD.

WARD CLUB ENDORSES THE MEASURE meilman and Manager of Street Rallway Fall to Attend the Meet- ing of the Omaha Improvement Club, View At the meeting of the South Side Second Ward Improvement club last evenlng Coun- climan Hoye declared he would vote for the placing of the Rosewater franchise or- dinance before the people, to be voted upon by them, and the club passed resolutions requesting that such be done by the council Both Councilman Hoye and City Englneer Rosewater were present at the meeting and were called upon to speak. Mr. Hoye stated he had been at all times sincere in the action he had taken in regard to this ordinance and its substitute. The lat- ter he had believed the people were In favor of until two weeks ago, when he saw that he had been mistaken. The giving of the ordinance, he believed, would open up to Omaha a vast quantity of cheap power, which mewns. a saving to Omaha people and the building of mew and ex- tensive manufactories in the city and its suburbs. His intention never had been to balk these purpcses, he said, but he had thought the amended franchise was the more rapid way of giving Omaha cheap electricity. At no time, he sald, had he been accused of being under obligations (Gold Medal 1| At Pan-American Exposition. Unlike Auy Other !

Mr. Rosewater was then called upon and outlined the effect of his scheme upoa telling what the ordinance asks of and gives to the city and the methods that are to be used In obtaining the power. The club then passed unanimously the following: Resolved, by the South Side Second Ward Improvement_ club, That we favor the sub- mission of the Rosewater franchise ordi- nance, and we earnestly request the city council to pass said ordinance so that the people may have an opportunity to pass Judgment on its merits at the coming city dlection. The club adjourned to meet the second Wednesday in April. The mass meeting of the Omaha View Improvement club last evening, which was to have resulted ‘n the residents of that portion of the city telling their troubles to their council representative, and also having Manager Smith of the Cmaha Street Railway company present, that they Light present their claims for the extension of the street car line along Thirty-third street, proved a disappointment in some respects. Though there were a large num. ber of the Omaba View residents present, both the councilman and Manager Smith failed to appear. During the evening very little business was transacted by the club, owing to an altercatio which arose be- tween Vice President Tuttle and Simeon Robinson, the latter making an open deo- laration against Tuttle betore the club after the latter had caused Charles Jobn. son to leawe the hall. The flasco ended by the vice president tendering his resigna- tion to avoid further trouble and stating that he would withdraw from the member- ship whether or not the club granted his request for the acceptance of his resigna. tion.

WHY NO MEETING WAS HELD Sixth Ward Republican Club Finds Itself Without a Hall to Gather In. highly There was no meeting of the Sixth Ward Republican elub last night, but under the fitful rays of a street lamp the secretary declared the meeting which never assem- bled adjourn.d until called by the presi- dent. There was something not explained in the | failure of the club to meet. W. G. Shriver, | the secretary, said that tae hall had been | rented by the club for ten days. The agent of the hall sald that it had been rented by some ome else for the same evening and that the “some one else’ had posse: sion. John Westberg held an indignation meeting all by his lopesome on fhe slile- walk and called upon the assembled multi- tude, consisting principally of Robert Houghton, John Westberg, B. G. Burbank, M. D. Karr, Gus Hollo, Henry McDonald and John Long, to view the outrage perpe- trated upon the club, because there was a confusion as to date. Mr. Westberg swore with many an oath that the Mets Brewing company, which owns the ball, should feel the unqualified weight of the Omaba Board of Fire and Police Commis- sloners; that they would be sorry that they ever rented the bullding to anyone when the Sixth Ward Republican club de- sired it; but when asked what he specific- ally Intended to do he bade his questioner to wait and find out, as the lesson would be sharp and lasting.
