gave estimates of what it cost to gun
Griffin's sprinkling business, which in
the main corresponded with the figures
given by Griffin. the total of Stahl's es-
Inmates being 1000 less than those Of
Griffin. Mr. Griffin valued the
sprinllling wagons at $50 each and
horses at $40 each.
SHORT ARGUMENTS.
Mr.. F. S. Richards, in opening the
arguments, said that it was admitted
that Mrs. Griffin was entitled to ali
mony and attorney fees, and the only
question was the amount. The sum
of $3.50 per month, asked for by Mrs.
Griffin'S attorneys, he considered eX
orbitant, and taking it into account
that she had her home, he though that
$50 or $50 would be enough and as much
as the financial position of Mr.. Griffin,
as shown by the evidence, warranted.
o. W. Moyle argued that $50 a month
for Mrs. Griffin to support herself and
the boy in the style they have been
used to was altogether inadequate and
$1,000 for her law expenses was mod
crate.
This closed the alimony portion of
the case, and Judge Hiles took it and
the question of attorney fees under
advisement, stating that he would give
a decision at an early date.
Then followed a discussion of mo-
ton to modify the injunction prohibit
ing Griffin from interfering with his
son, now in the custody of Mrs. Griffin,
and his honor ordered that the father
be allowed to visit the boy twice a
end of August, and it was ordered that
the restraining order preventing Grif-
fin from selling the property remain in
force until further order of the court.

THAT PRINTING CONTRACT
THE AWARD MADE BY THE CODE
COMMISSION.
Grant n. Smith Says it Went to the
Nebraska House Because it Was
the Lowest by Thousands OF Dol
lars.

Allusion having been made in last
evenings News to the matter of the
bids for the printing of the report of
the code commission and the laws
passed at the last session of the legis-
lature, structures having been made
that the bid was let to outside parties
at the expense of home talent, a Her
aid reporter last evening hunted up
Grant H. Smith. a member of the code
commission. for information. Mra
Young is out of town and Mr.. Lee is
in Ogden.
Mr.. Smith said there were bids re-
ceived from St. Louis, Lincoln, San
Francisco and Salt Lake, and that in
every instance the outside bidders were
far and away the lowest. The st. Louis
bid, the Lincoln bid and the San Fran
cisco bid were all within a few hun
dred dollars of each other and were
lower than bids received from this
city. For instance, the bid of the
News was about $4,000, while the
Tribune was about $1,000. The Utah
Lithograph company had a bid in
which was a few hundred different
from the Lincoln house to which the
contract was awarded. Their bid WAS
in the neighborhood of $1,000, or about
half the amount of the News bid. That
was the reason the commission gave
them the preference. Ali things con-
sidered, the commission thought ii had
done the best when it gave the contract
TO the Lincoln people, and had no apoi-
oSies to make for its action.

DR.. Payne and he had never told Mrs.
Griffin anything about what he ex
pected to make out of the sprinkling
contract He owned three pieces of real
estate in Omaha which were mort
gagged and yielded not enough revenue
TO pay the interest and expenses of
maintenance, and last year he paid out
500 more than the income from this
property. The Great Falls property
yielded no income. and his mining
property in Utah consisted only of
mining claims on which nothing but
assessment work had been done, and
from his home in this city he derived
no benefit since his troubles with his
wife commenced, prior to which it had
been used as a place to board his en-
ployees.
His revenue from the city amounted
to 81, e4S a month, which for the seven
summer months of the year lost him
$500 a month. The other five months
ne made SS.35S. making a net profit for
the year of about 81, 100.

ADDITIONAL EXPENSES.

In the afternoon, in reply to Judge
LCofbourow Mr.. Griffin said there were
quite a number of items Of expense in
running mis- business which had not
been mentioned in his examination in
the forenoon. There were several more
horses unan had been mentioned and
a few more men, water rates, depre-
citation of the property and other ex-
penseS incidental TO the business; also
interest and discounts on city warrants
in which he received his pay amounted
10 $50 a month. and 500 a month for
shoeing horses and repairing wagons.
Witness said his property on Saun-
ders street, Omaha, which he refused
81 600 for in 1889 was now worth about
1000. His Great Falls property was
worth about 81. 900 and his home in this
city was worth about $4,000, and there
is an incumberance of $500 on the
home. The title 10 this property is
held by the Deseret National bank.
The Cottonwood ranch is worth $1,000
or $1,000 and his sprinkling plant is
worth $4,000 or $4,000. Other Omaha
property once worth $4,000 is now
only worth $4,000. and there is an in
cumbraEce of $500 on it.
Cross-eXamination resumed by Mr..
Zane, witness said he did not think
that SO a month for feeding horses
was excessive.
AN EXPERT WITNESS.
D. B. Blackburn, examined by Judge
said the cost of keeping
horses in 1890 was about 81 a day: now
the cost is about so cents a day for
feed alone.
