South Omaha News I.

Following the instructions recently Is
sued by the city council. City Clerk Shrig-
ley is advertising for bids for supplies OF
various kinds In quantities large enough
to last for sin months. 1t is thought in
this way that considerable money can be
saved Bids for stationery. books office
supplies, coal. hay, grain, hardware, lum-
Der, etc, will be received at the office o.
the clerk up to noon Of December 20. In
this case the city reserves the right to
reject any or all bids and to make awards
for each article separately or upon an
average for each class, as shall be deemed
for the best interests OF the city. In max
ing averages no bids will be considered un-
less each and every article in the class IL
bid upon.
Heads of the various departments have
made estimates OF their needs for six
months. 1t is estimated that l2, ,440 pounds
Of ice will be needed for the city Jail, police
court and fire hall for the six months CON-
mencing In May and ending in October.
At least $50 tin tags for drays. milk and
peddler wagons will be needed, according
to Inspector Jones. Treasurer Koutsky
sends In @ long list Of books and ONCE sup
plies Of various kinds. Chief Etter figures
that twenty-five tons OF hay and 425 bushels
of oats will be needed for the Are horses,
along with eleven tons of Walnut block
and four tons OF anthracite coal. Chief
Mitchell estimates that he will use 1000
large envelopes for holding prisoners valu-
ables, 1000 small envelopes and the same
number of letterheads.
Should the plan, as proposed. be carried
out, there will be a great deal OF red tape
about the purchase of supplies not noted
in the estimates. However. in the Johnston
resolution provision is made for emergency
cases. written order must be obtained
first from the committee in charge and the
bill attached to the order Issued for the
supplies. otherwise the finance committee
will not consider the claim

GRINNELL Ia, Dec. 15.-(Special)- )-One
OF the cases now being tried in the dis
trict court at Belle PLANE is that OF the
State against William Peterson, charged
with naliciously destroying property be-
longing to Tharp Pitts. Tharp & Pitts
ran several threshing outfits in Benton
county and In some way incurred the en-
nifty Of Peterson. Soon after this Tharp
IL Pitts lost one OF their machines by Are,
burned while standing alone in the field.
second machine was later destroyed in a
more sensational manner. stick of
dynamite was concealed In bundle of
grain and was thrown into the machine.
The explosion wrecked the machine and the
men had narrow escape with their lives.
third attempt was made by putting
stones In bundles OF grain. Fawn Jacobs,
young man rather simple, was asso-
ciated with Peterson and II is through
him that Peterson's arrest was brought
about. Jacobs, 1t is believed, will turn

UNC0vERlNG THIEVES PLOT


GRlNNELL, Ia, Dec. 15.-(Special Tels-
gram THE private detectives OF the
Northwestern railway believe that they
have discovered a gigantic thieving plot
and as result Mat Herzog has been ar
rested at Toledo on the charge OF being a
fierce for crooks who have been operating
slong the Northwestern line. Other ar
rests OF the principals will probably soon
follow.
The scheme was large one and the field
OF operations extended over a large por-
tion OF Iowa. Some time ago Herzog was
arrested at Marshalltown, where he had
been under surveillance for some time by
the marshal and Tama county officials.
The charge against him was that of re-
ceiving stolen goods. The grand Jury
quashed this particular charge, when he
was Immediately arrested again for being
concerned In the larger criminal scheme.
Herzog Is supposed to have, been a fence
Tor gang that has been operating along
the line OF the Northwestern for a number
OF years. The detectives are of the opinion
that Murray and McCabe, the State Center
burglars recently sent up, were members
OF this gang and Herzog is known to have
supplied these men with money while they
were in Jail. The detectives believe that
they are about to unearth one OF the most
extensive schemes of operation in the
criminal history of Iowa.
