PACKING HOUSES INTERESTED R. B. Howell, general manager for ! the water district, was on the witness | stand for a short time in federal| court, where the injunction suit of the Water board against the City of South Omaha, the Stock Yards com- | pany and the packing houses is being tried. The Water board is seeking an in- junction preventing the city of South Omaha from putting into effect the ordinance by which it gave the de- fendants the right to lay water mains through the city's streets. Mr. Howell gave way to Stanley T. Bonowlitz, South Omaha engineer, who answered questions regarding the city's| strests and the defendants’ properties and to City Clerk Wheeler of South| Omaha, who identitied coples of the ordinances in question. Mr, Howell will take the stand for a more”extended ex- amination after these details are fixed. Besides the leading attorneys a num- ber of South Omaha officials and also the attorneys for the several packing houses were present in court.
