10W TO DOLE OUT CITY FUNDS Mayor and Council Will Take Up the Problem at Once. | CENTRAL TOOL HOUSE IS URGED Up Tom Filysn fin Dabhiman Backs This and Will Press ¢ ter Before the Other oftiel Members of the city councll will meet Thursday morning with the mayor and other city officlals to go over the re- quests for apportionment of funds for the year. It i expected that final agree- ment will be reached after two or three sessions Mayor Dahlman, who has in his posses- slon all the requests of city officers, has some notions of his own as to what ought to be done In certain departments and will present his ideas to the conference. | He will back up Street Commissioner | Flynn's suggestion that the city should | have a central tool house, or service bullding, for the street department, with two other stations located in the south and north sections of the city. The present headquarters of the work- | ing force of the department i« undet the Sixteenth street viaduct. Great waste sf time is Involved In handling the machin- | ery from this point, because of the long | distances to be covered in getting Ihn. machines and the men to outlying places where work Is to be done. “I belleve that the thinking citizens of | Omaha will glve support to the counecil | it It decides to adopt my recommenda- tion and get more machines, to be handily located for work,” sald the mavyor. | “There 1s absolutely no sense in having | the machinery kept in a place from which it can be moved only with the greatest ifficulty In bad weather. And there fis just as little sense In wasting time for which the city 1s paying good money moving the apparatus and the men from that place to distant points. This city Is widely spread and some elegant residence | districts exist far out. Why not have| two or more buildings in different sec- tions wherein to store flushers and sweep- | ers and where the workers can report to the foreman and start on thelr work at once? “Besldes the subsldiary tool houses In the north and south sectlons, perhaps one should also be located in the West Far- nam district, but, for a starter, the coun- cll can, well take up the matter of bullding a central house and two others at this time. These tool houses need not neces- sarily be costly, and can be bullt on prop- erty the city owns, or on ground that can easily be secured. They could be moved without any trouble later on, if that should be necessary.” Another matter that will very likely en- gage the attention of the officlals is the standardizing of clty account keeping. Comptroller Lobeck and his deputy, Fred H. Cosgrove, have worked out a plan which | has been explained to most of the council- men, and seems to win their commenda- tion. It may Involve the securing of some | additional expert clerks, but it is asserted | that this increased cost will be more than | offset by the resulting good to the city. Blanks required to put the proposed new system Into effect have been prepared, and | book headings outlined. If the council gives fits indorsement, all new. printing ordered under contracts just awarded will be gotten up along the lines of the standard plan, which closely follows the recommendations of the United States census bureau touching city accounting. Rats Get Away with Fine Furs| Steal Choice Package Brought In by Provident Citizens from the West. Perry Wingert came from the western part of the state to visit the metropolis. He carried a package and saw to it that it was handled with care. He went to the Arcade hotel and deposited the package with the clerk. He assured the clerk there was something valuable In the package, but did not want it locked in the vault. The next morning when the package was | demanded it, was handed to the stranger, | but there was nothing left except the wrappings. Rats had rifled the bundle of the preclous contents and Wingert was greatly distressed. When asked what the package contained he stated in confidence that he had brought three fine skunk skins to Omaha to sell to a fur dealer and now the rats had taken the skins and lined their nests with the valuable fur, Wingert expected to have a good time with the money he” was going to get for fhe skins, but now he will have to curtall expenses and the pleasure of his long con- templated trip Is greatly marred becaus- of his loss.

DRAWS SIX THOUSAND A YEAR Falthful Service of Over a Quarter of a Century in Position of Great st Brings a Rich Reward. Erastus Young, retired general auditor of the Harriman lines, will become a pen- sloner of the great rallroad system he served for over a quarter of a cenmtury, at something like $5,000 a year. This competency will be Issued to him annually for the remainder of his life as a reward for his twenty-seven years' service with the Harriman railroads. As chairman of the pension board Erastus Young had the power a pensioner and could have almost named the sum that he would draw from the rallroad funds until s death. His salary as general auditor was $1,260 monthly or $15,00 per annum The Harriman Mnes provide pensions for retiring employés and Mr. Young comes under the general eategory of beneficiaries. His pension, like all others, will be based upon years ‘of service and the average he drew during his twenty- seven of - work for the Harriman system. The question of Mr. Young's successor as chairman of the pension board is onme of speculation. There Is reason to belleve that C. B. Seger, the new general auditor, will be selected to head the board, al- though it may go to any of the Harriman officlals. The matter now rests with executives in the New York offices. Mr. Seger's term of office in Omaha will be & short one. On May 1 he will remove to Chicago, taking with him a corps of assistants from the local headquarters Heneeforth the general auditing department of the Harriman system will be located in Chicago, although the accounting depart- ment of the Union Pacitic rafiroad will re- main in Omaha.
