WAREHOUSES ARE T00 SHALL Railroads Want to;fip 4,000 Pounds More in Beer Cars. BAY WINDOWS !IAY BE BUILT | Breweries Constructed Loeal Coolers Hold Only 24,000 Pounds and Hatlronds Propose Increase of Mintmum Weight. Al beer warehouses In Nebraska will have to be cnlarged or people will have | to drink more beer, if the Nebraska Rail- way Commission secures the adoption of | the new classification which will make a | change In the 'minimum weight of beer cars, Incteasing it ‘from 20000 to fl."“‘ pounds; { This fs one of the most serious things | whith will result from the new classifica- | tion, though there are others. E. J. Mc Vann, manag of the traffie bureau, mld‘ J. M. Gulld, commissioner of the Commer- | clal club, returned Thursday from Lincoin | where they went to protest against the | adoption of the latest_classification list A little more than a year ago the rail- roads increased the minimum amount of beer which should bé loaded In a car in order to entitle it to the car load rate from 20,000 to 24,000 pounds. Nebraska aprarently got away with the increased amount of bear even in face of the prohibition clouds | which have been hovering over the state. | Now the raiiroads are going to compel | brewers to puth 28,000 pounds of beer in car before they ean get the car load rate, | It simply means that the local agent or saloon keepers who have cooling ware- | houres out over the state will have to get | 4,000 pounds more beer each time and then the extra amount will crowd the war | houses. They were originally bullt to hold | and accommodate 240 pounds of beer. For yédrs only 20,000 ppunds wera shipped | in the ‘eard sont out from the brewerles. When the 24,000 rule went into effect, the | brewers found their warehoises filled | every time they sent out a car load of beer. Now contes the proposal to make the minimum welght 28000 pounds, or 4,000 pounds more than the warehouse will hold. Beer Golng to Waste. What will the btewers and saloon keepers | do With the extra 4,000 pounds, especially with a daylight saloon’ faeing them. Some suggest they might hold a bargain auction #ale at the car as they are doing In Lincoln and make the arrival of a car load of beer in a country town a big event when the extra 4,000 pounds may be easlly disposed of in any “‘wet” community. | In the new classification more than 900 | changes are proposed in minimum weights, all being Increases. They affect a large lst of commodities besides the beer of Nebraska, including implements, steel tanks and other merchandise and ma- chinery, .

They had accepted the money and it was a question of whether they should glve back the 40 cents on each bushel or not. But most of them thought not and dldn't. Then it had just been discovered by the rain dealers that every bun contains 7.2 ains of pure alcohol and every 5 cent loat of bread .68 per cent of the poison How could wheat be worth less than $1.% per bushel, they argued, when Lincoln and other fly-specks on the map are going dry and the only way to get a drink of alcohol 1s to buy & 4 cent table d'hote dinner and eat the bread. “Wheat will continue to go up if they quit cutting bread in Lincoln and go to opening the loaves with a cork-screw,"” ays “Bill" Sunderland, the friend of Jim Patton, who has maintained all along that $1.25 Is the actual price of wheat. Of course the Lincoln excise board may forbld the people eating bread now that the demon-mocker is known to lurk within the crust. This would be a serious blow to the grain trade, say all the Bills on the exchange, as the moment a loaf of bread gets between the legs of some Lincoin gentieman and causes him to fall in the gutter, there will be things doing down there which will put the price of wheat down where Tama Jim says it pught to be. Protzels are sald by the health author- fties to be the least alcoholie form of bread and total abstalners are expected to con- tinue thelr use. The difficulty has been to find a place where the pretssls are served outside the groggeries and there is danger in people becoming confirmed bun eaters and boostifig wheat to $2 per bushel. RAIN DOES MUCH GOOD TO SOIL AND CROPS at Time When it W Ny d by Farms Gardens. Ca Greatly The rain of the last few days will be of immense benefit to gardens and all sorts of grain in Nebraska as well as to pas- tures. The condition of the soll was get- ting bad, but the rains relieved the situa- tion. Winter wheat was showing very little growth because of want of molsture and oats were suffering from want of rain and from the strong winds. The ground was not too dry to plow for corn and con- siderable corn' has been planted. The pas- tures were exceedingly backward, 8T.

Definita contracts as to what legal serv- |ices will cost in the future will be drawn up by and between the Omaha Water |board and John L. Webster and Carl C.| | Wright, tire board's attorneys. Members of the board say they have a | deep Impression what their attorney fe |have been in the past, but in the future |they want to know what the cost is to be | before tae work fa done. No meetings have been held, said Dr. A. H. Hipple, member of the board, but the two aitorneys have been instructed to make out an itemized statement of expenses past for the Board. All bills tendered by the attorneys| have been paid without que tion, but now after they have been paid and pald by the board not knowing ex- actly what it paid for, the board has asked the attorneys to separate the bills to show what each separate case has cost. “We will continue the fight and will hold the aggressive end of the contest until the last ditch,” sald Dr. Hipple, “But don't misunderstand me. I mean that we will fight the appraisement cas> to the finish, but the board has many cases and some of these may be dropped where they are. But about this I do not know--the board has taken no definite action. “All T can say at this time is that the attorneys have been asked to furnish ftem- ized bills showing the cost of litigation of each case; that they will be asked to con- tract for future work at a certaln price, and that the water works appraisement case will be fought to a standstill.’ Asked what the board would do with the $6,500,00 that the people voted to {ssue in bonds Dr. Hipple said it would be used in buying the water works and not in paying attorneys’ fees.

HOSPITALS AND OTHERS FAIL TO REPORT TO CORONER Seven Cases, Heafey Says, He Should Have Had Are Passed to Pri- vate Hands. The fallure of hospitals and brivate in- dividuals to notify Coroner Heafey of cases {of death coming under his jurisdiction, caused hot words at Thursday morning's inquest over the body of Nate Travis, the | negro shot by Roy Davis. “I will refuse to hold an inquest in a case it it Is grabbed out of my jurisdiction without my knowledge and I am not noti- | fled even of the death of the party,” de- | clarea Coroner Heatey, County Attorney English was also “hop- ping mad.”" The coroner declared that in the future he would leave such cases to the wisdom and action of the county attor- | ney, when the coroner was npt consulted, as is required by law. | A delay in the Travis inquest, due to the failure of all but three of the witnesses to appear, was the primary cause of the im- patience of the county attorney and the coroner. On account of the delay, the jury hearing the case adjourney till Friday at 10 o'clock. According to a statement made at the inquest, the Travis case is the seventh during Mr. Heafey's term to be turned over o a private undertaker and treated as a private case, when the coroner should have been called. It is the second case in which the Omaha General hospital h failed to notify the coroner, but bas in- stead allowed a private undertaker to haul away.
