petition asking thS; steps be taken to
have TIE y street car lite extended to Thir-
ty-nintn street has been presented to the
city officials and it ia possible that tie
street ca leople may be requested to eE-
tend Il line At the p esent time the STUB
line stops u Thirty-third street. Forty
five property owners who live west Of
Thirty-siXth street have signed this petit
ton and Il is asserted that fully $50 fam
lilies would he benefited by the extension.
When the change in the main line is made
the Q street car would stop at the east
end of the Q street viaduct thus making
the run very short one. On this account
it is thought likely that the officers OF the
street car company will see their way
clear to make the improvement requested.
Considerable opposition to the new main
line project has developed within the last
week or two. Business men near the cor
ner of Twenty fourth and y streets assert
that their trade will be greatly reduced II
the motor trains run down n street TO
Twenty-sixth street, instead OF stopping
where they now do. On the other hand,
patrons OF the cars, who are employed at
the yards and packing houses. urge the
extension. as 1t will do away with trans
fers and land passengers very close to three
OF the big packing plants and the stock
yards.
The city council has given the street car
company the right to make the extension
and it is expected that work will com
mence as soon as the rush OF travel Is
over.

Haley Again Under Arrest.

T. c. Haley. a young man from Kansas
City, was detected. it is alleged. taking a
diamond set watch from a trav at the store
Of Coombs & Co. yesterday afternooa. ono
of the proprietors. f. o. Furen, caught Haley
as he was leaving the store and held him
until an officer was summoned. The watch
it Is alleged. was found in the young man s
pocket.
Furen says that Haley entered the store
and asked to see some ladies' gold watches
and a tray was shown him. His actions
were so suspicious, Mr.. Furen said, that he
watched him and saw him take a watch,
after which he turned away with the re-
mark that he would not purchase one then,
but would later. Hastily placing his tray
Furen ran from behind the counter and
caught Haley as he was about to leave.
Haley is the youth who was some weeks
ago arrested for the alleged theft of $500
from the trunk of a woman roomer in the
building at Thirteenth and Howard streets.

Opposing II Paving Tax.

The property owners along Webster street
between Sixteenth and Twenty second. in
Guiding the trustees OF the African Methodist
Episcopal church. have begun suit In the
district court against the city to contest
the payment of the paving and curbing
taxes for that portion OF the street. 1t has
been paved with asphaltum.
They say no petition from a majority OF
the real property owners was ever presented
to the city council and that the parties who
signed the names S. G. Daman, Eliza p.
Evans and Frank Chrysler to the petition
that was presented had no right to do so.
The paving was ordered in 1889, the cost
being limited to s2.6S per yard The total
assessment for that district (No 14D
amounted to s22, 1851. which included an in
spector's salary of s64.55 and other items
amounting to over $1,000 more than the
actual cost of the Job. according to the
statements OF the complaint filed. Tho
plaintiffs also charge that no engineers esti-
mate was ever submitted. They therefore
ask that the ordinance be annuled and the
assessment set aside

working ON n Telephone Line.

COLUMBUS, Neb., Sept 2S.-(Special) y
The Nebraska Telephone company have a
large force of men at work building a line
from Seward to this city. This, when COM
pleted, will give this part OF the state di-
rect communication with Lincoln and the
south. 1t is the intention, as soon as the
line reaches this city, to build on west to
Grand Island via Genoa and Fullerton.
This will establish several new telephone
exchanges and will make Columbus quite
a central point 1t is expected that the
work will be completed in two months.
travelling representative of a st. Louis
commission house, who has been pretty
thoroughly over this part Of the state the
last ten days, says he thinks the corn
crop here will be the large end of half a
crop. There are many who think that he
has estimated too low. He was through
a large part of the irrigated district and
was very enthusiastic over what he saw.
The Board of Supervisors are in session
and ii quite probable that negotiations will
be closed at this meeting for the purchase
OF a tract of land near the new wagon
bridge on the Loup river which will give the
county a chance to build a protection. The
river has been threatening the bridge for
some time.

Row Among OmciaIs.

BEATRICE, Neb. Sept 2S.-(Special
Telegram To-day as one of the Liberty sa-
loon cases was about to be called in county
court, Constable Richards OF that place
served a warrant upon Attorney L. NJ. Penn
berton and endeavored to carry him from
the court house with the intention OF taking
him to Liberty. Several court house at
taches interfered and after an exciting tus-
se Pemberton was released. Sheriff Nell
son served papers upon the constable in
a writ Of habeas corpus and Pemberton was
allowed to proceed with the cas- IS in court.
The complaint upon which Pemberton was
arrested is based upon the sensational oc-
currences at Liberty several weeks ago,
when Pemberton was assaulted by the viii
laPe marshal while in the progress of a
hearing before the village board and ac-
cused Pemberton of resisting an officer.
The constable secured the names OF sew
eral who took part in today's melee, includ-
ing j. C. Emery and Walter Noel clerks
in the Offices Of district and county clerk
and says he will swear out warrants for
their arrest for interfering with an officer
in the performance OF his duty.

Democrats Make Up school Board
Ticket without Consulting
Their Partners.

Omaha populists have received another
jolt of democratic efforts for harmony in
the nomination last night by the latter
party Of five candidates for positions on the
Board of Education, no one Of whom claims
atfliation with the populist party The
slight is aggravated in this case by the
fact that the silver republicans secure two
out o. the five places. The convention was
called on twelve hours notice and the at
tendance was necessarily small. The ses-
sion was brief and full of saccharine the
slate going through without sufficient op-
position to develop even passive interest

TRENTON, Neb,, Sept. 2S.-tSpecial)- y
For weeks this town and the surrounding
county has been flooded by circulars adver-
tsing a rally for today. A great effort was
made to interest the people and get out
a large crowd, but to no avail. The big
crowd failed to materalize. Only an ordi-
nary crowd were present at l o'clock when
the principal speaker Senator w. V. Allen
was introduced amid few feeble cheers
His speech was a rehash of speeches he has
been making for the last three years with
a little war talk infused into it. He was
followed by Congressman r. d. Sutherland
and ]. f. Cornell and others. From boom
standpoint the meeting was a fiat failure
and the populists are correspondingly de-
pressed.

COLONEL GlFFlN ON THE CAMP
Surgeon In Charge of SternberE Hos
pital Defends the Natural Con-
ditions at ChickamnuSa.

LINCOLN, Sept. S-(Special. .)-Colonel
r. +. Gifiin of this city, surgeon in charge
Of the Sternberg hospital at Chickamauga
is in Lincoln a short furough. He takes
issue with the sensational statements made
in portion of the press upon the unhealthy
conditions prevailing at the park. He says
it is one OF the healthiest places in the
country which could have been chosen for a
great military encampment All the condi-
tions, he says, are conducive to good health,
and that the troops which have been en-
camped there would certainly have enjoyed
good health il the proper care and precau
tions had been taken to preserve health.
The sickness has been caused, he says, by
the improper and negligent manner in which
the sanitary regulations recommended by
the army surgeons have been enforced.
The colonel speaks highly of the condi-
tion of the camp of the Second Nebraska
and says the sickness in that regiment
is due largely to the laxity of the COM
manders of other regiments. 1t was this
condition which caused the colonel to rec
ommend to the War department to separate
the regiments into camps several miles
apart that those who cared for themselves
should not be caused to suffer from the
neglect of others. The secretary of war
| adopted the recommendation, but was forced
to swerve from his purpose by the demands
of the people that the soldiers be sent to
their respective states, which action the
| colonel thinks was unwise.
Colonel Gifin also denies the statement
of lack of supplies in his department for
| the care of the sick. He says there was
| an abundance, that he was furnished with
| everything he asked for, and that the War
department asked no questions as to ex-
| pense in the handling of his department

Struggle for the SteDs,

The senior and junior classes OF the
Omaha High school began yesterday their
annual struggle for supremacy. The west
steps have been termed the Senior steps
and are claimed by that class as one of
their special perquisites. At noon the ju-
niors charged in force in an endeavor to dis
lodge their opponents who were established
at the top of the flight. After short but
violent engagement the juniors were re-
pulsed and fell back with slight loss. The
damage was confined to several bumped
heads and rent Jackets Principal Lev
iston and Jantor Fitzgerald arrived after
the first charge and prevented second at
tack. The juniors say that the end is not
yet, as they are backed not only by superior
weight and numbers, but as they claim, by
