C. Peters Plans to Rebuild His Mill on Old Site Adjusts All Fire Losses and Now Di- rects Attention to New Building. jes of the M. C. Peters Mill company by the fire which destroyed the alfalfa meal mill two weeks ago have all been ad- Jjubted and the company is turning its at- tention to the problems of reconstruction. Though President Peters is not ready yet to make a definite announcement of his plans, stockholders in the company say the mill will be febullt in Omaha on the old site as soon as possible, as the company is losing a great deal of money because of the inability to fill orders. The stock is owned by Mr. Peters and many business men, all of whom are vi- tally interested In Omaha and its future as a commerclal and manufacturing center. The demand for the alfalfa meal has made the industry an important one and stock- holders say there is no doubt as to the mill being erected In the city. Some trouble fas been experienced when the mill was in operation in securing suf- ficient alfalfa to keep it running. Many times Mr. Peters said he could secure but one or two cars of the raw material when he wanted from ten to twenty. Arrange- ments have been gradually made with growers to cure the hay as it should be cured to make & sweet and high class meal and when the new mill is opened 1t is said the trouble of securing raw ma- terial will be largely overcome.

Todd and Some of His Members Oppose the Neber Saloon. Rev. An effort 1s being made in district court before Judge Troup to get thrown out the license granted Charles Neber to_conduct a saloon at 2220-31 Leavenworth street The license was allowed by the Board of Fire and Police commissioners March 15 fallowing a protest by property owners Prominent among these protestants was the pastor, Rev. W. E. Todd, and members of the Third Presbyterlan church. When the board came to vote on the question two members sidestepped, two voted in the affirmative and onme_in the negative. A. W. Jefferis and W. W. Sla- baugh, attorneys for the opponents of the license, assert that a license granted by only two affirmative votes will not stand J. P. Breen represented Neber, the sa- in America and embrace within a day's | sail all places along shore between New- port and Long Branch, and running far north up the Hudson River. For the visi- tor in New York who desires to avail him self of these delightful, nearby water trips, there is no finer stopping place than the Hotel St. Regls at Fifth Avenue and Fifty-fifth Street, a hotel of most su- perior comforts and luxurfes without os- tentation, but with perfeot home com- forts, refinement and quietness. Its res taurant charges are the same as other first class hotels, and rooms may be had as low as $3 and $4 a day for a large, handsomely furnished single bedroom; the same with private bath for $5 a day (or $6 for two people); or $12 a day and up for an elegant sulte consisting of parlor, bedroom and private bath, Little Bby Loses His Sight, but Not His Nerve Son of Dr. C. 0. Robinson Goes to Btete School Determined to Become & Writer. “One hundred more blind children of Ne- braska will be given training at the school for the blind at Nebraska City, there being over one hundred mow in the Institution, since Buperintendent Abbott has taken hold and greatly enlarged and bettered the facilities at the school,” said Dr. C. O. Robinson, who returned from Nebraska City Sunday, where he entered his iittle boy as one of the students under Mr. Abbott. The case of the little Robinson boy peculiar. Up to a short time ago his eyes showed no symptoms of weakness. Grad- ually they began to fall and the little fellow is now totally blind. But that has not dampened his ambition. He Is deter- mined to learn even with the handicap of blindness and says he will be a newspaper man or writer some day. Though but 10 years of age he has written some com- positions which would be a credit to a much older boy and better than most people ever write. “The school has been run too econom- fcally,” said Dr. Robinson. “The state of Nebraska appropriates money for these institutions intending that it shall be used to give out unfortunate. children training not surpassed by any similar institutions In the country. The people of Nebraska are generous with appropriations and while they would not stand for waste, it seems to me such schools should not be run with the idea of turning back a large sum into tlie treasury and depriving the children of things they need. The school at Nebraska City s now n excellent condition and when citizens who have been keeping thelr children at home find out what an ideal institution SBuperintendent Abbott is mak- ing for the state, they will send their boys and girls to L.im. T belfeve there are more than 100 in the state who should be at Nebraska City.” LETTER TORN OFF EVIDENCE Mutilated Deposition Cauwes Stir Sult Before District Judge Kennedy, A mutilated plece of evidence caused a slght stir in Judge Kennedy's court Mon. day, a letter attached to a deposition being torn off in part. The suit is that of Howard & Troy, a Sloux county firm, against the Smith-Lock- wood Manufacturing company of Omaha The letter, which is the chief evidence in favor of plaintiffs, who have appealed from county court, was Intact when the files were wthdrawn from county court. Shot well & Shotwell, attorneys for plaintiff introduced the missing evidence verbally and the question of how the letter became torn was not delved into. is ! vance and there J every Indication that those who store In' Omaha for a few months | will reap large profits | "Growers shipping to Omaha are going to hold out for 6 or 2 cents The warehouse in Chicago is not pleted and s for stockholders only, which leaves the average wool growers out in the dark. Omaha bankers are making the same terms last year, which were “all the money you need with warehouse cer- titicates as collateral at market rates.” Arrangements have been made by the managers of the Omaha warehouse to in- sure the wool placed In storage; the rates for warehouse facilities are lower than elsewhere, and it costs growers 2 cents per hundred less to ship to Omaha and then forward to the east when the clip Is sold than it does to send the wool to Chicago tor storage and forward it from there. ‘Wool dealers and manufacturers are look- ing for the top of the wool boom. It does not appear that the high price has yet been reached. The growers who contracted at 15 and 18 cents early In the season are now delivering for that price, while dealers in Boston are selling the wools In advance of com- Chanee at Miillon Pounds. The Omaha company has received in- | formation that two of the largest individual | clips in Montana aggregating some 1,000,000 | pounds each, could have been bought for 22 cents per pound. This week 23 cents per pound was offered by wire and refused As 24 cents per pound was paid last weck for the Hervie clip in Montana it is thought {that little if any more good wool will be |secured for less than 2 cents. From 2% to 24 cents are the ruling prices at both “asper and Rawlins. One authority estimates that the landed scoured price” in, Boston of wools bought | in Wyoming, Montana and Idafo will react {70 to 75 cents and that buyers will have to | get 80 cents per pound when selling the scoured product to get out with a~profit. The wool growers are going to make money this year and those who store in Omaha are going to make more money. Withnell Urges Appropriation | Building Inspector Says if Council Will Not Finance Him His Hands Are Tied. Dilapidated and unsafe structures in Omaha will be allowed to stand and con, [tinue a menace to occupants or passersby and remain eyesores unless the councll wiil give City Buflding Inspector Withnell an appropriation enabling him to tear them down. The councll neglected to appropriate at the beginning of the year any money for this purpose and tne ouilding Inspector's | hands are tied. He says there are many | old shacks In the city that ought to be | raged Immediat but he cannot order their arrival for 21 to 3% cents per pound.
