REDELL HEARING NEXT WEEK
Fire and Police Commissioner set
Next Wednesday as Date
for Trial.

The Board Of Fire and Police Commits
sioners met yesterday morning and set the
time for hearing the John Redell case for
wednesday. February 10. at 10 a. m. Mayor
Moores, Commissioner Frank A. Kennedy
and M, II. Collins, City Attorney Connell
and Clerk Kierstead were present. Com
missioner Kennedy introduced a resolution
to the effect that the charges against Re-
dell, as chief OF the fire department, be
heard on the above date, and mentioned
the complaints made and filed with this
board by John w. Bruder, and also the
charges and specifications made and fled
against him as such chief by Fred ]. Bug
bee. and also the charges made and filed
against him by Martin ]. Dineen and about
eighty-one other f1remen," as the indict-
ments which will be heard and investigated
on tina date.
The clerk was instructed to serve written
notice upon Redell and his three attorneys.
The board was informed that, at last &C
counts, Redell was out of the city, having
gone to New York to attend the funeral Of
a brother. The hearing will be held
whether or not Redell is present.
The attorneys for Redell are undecided
as to their future course in the matter Of
the hearing. C. G. Wright, one Of the at
torneys, said: "Mr. Redell is in Chicago,
but we expect him to return today or to-
morrow. We will then decide what to do.
For my part. 1 do not see what we can
gain by going before the board. However,
Mr.. Redell's desire and the advice OF coun-
sci will govern the matter"

be presented before next Tuesday, Febru-
airy IS, as that is the day set for arguing

MEANS LITTLE TO THIS CITY
Neat Bids Opened Here viii Be Seat On
to Chicago.
WINDY CITY PACKERS ARE IN CONTROL
Omaha Commercial CLUB, So says an
Army Omcer, is shooting In the
Dark on COmmissary Sup
ply Proposition.

The information given out in regard to
the opening Of bids at Omaha for supplying
meats for the Philippine islands was incor-
rect in one or two details. The bids will be
opened at Omaha today and the lowest
bid will be sent to Chicago with a recon-
mendation by the commissary officer at
Omaha This bid will be compared with the
lowest bids received at Chicago and Kansas
City and the lowest bidder will receive the
contract.
In the opinion Of representatives OF the
rommissary department there is too much
importance attached to the opening Of bids
IN Omaha for this class of material. "You
see.' said he, that the largest packing
houses at South Omaha are managed by
men who are also interested in Chicago.
In that city they have all arrangements
made for the special work required on this
class of meat. 1t will be easy for them to
keep the work in Chicago by arranging their
bids so that the Chicago house will have the
lowest one.
The Commercial club seems to be shoot
ing in the dark on the question Of commits
sary supplies in Omaha. What would do
the jobbers more good than anything else
would be TO have restored to this city the
purchase of stores previously bought at
his point.
"A short time ago we bought all OF the
pommissary stores required in the depart
ment at Omaha and also purchased for
bone Of the posts in other departments.
Now we only buy in Omaha for Forts
Crook. Meade. Niobrara and Robinson. The
Duppliea for Forts Riley and Leavenworth.
Ehe two largest posts in the department,
and for Forts Reno, Sill and Logan H.
Roots are purchased either at Kansas City
OF St Louis. 1t may be we'll that this is
done. for these cities are nearer the posts,
but there is no such an excuse for another
change which has been made. We used to
buy supplies in Omaha for Forts d. A. Rus
sell and Douglas. Today they are bought
In Chicago and shipped through Omaha to
their destination. We now buy for only
four posts at Omaha, where We formerly
bought for nine. and this is the business
which the Commercial club should look
after. It seems TO me. The packers will
take care OF the meats. II they can get
hem out cheaper in South Omaha than in
Chicago they will probably do It, and II
the award is made for Omaha 1t would not
be surprising TO see the meat prepared in
the Chicago houses and shipped to this
mty."

Something About EGGS.

People sometimes talk about eggs being
cheaper than beef OF pork. when in fact
very few people know how much meat
they are getting when they buy a dozen
eggs
A dealer II eggs told reporter for the
Eagle the other day that the farmers
played it on the city consumers in the
spring when eggs are high Then he
went on 10 relate that a dozen eggs only
weighed from one pound to a pound and
q half. He picked up q dozen Of the
largest eggs from basket and put
them on the scales and they just weighed
one pound and nine ounces
The farmers want 70 set their hens
early so as TO have spring chickens for
the market when they are high and they
70 get vigorous young chicks The small
er eggs are brought 20 the market and
they bring the same price as the larger
eggs because they sell BY the dozen in
stead OF by the pound as they should
The dealer said very frequently people
bought eggs in the spring when they got
very little # any over a pound for The
price Of one dozen eggs and If they did
not know II they were paying a good
big price for the meat in those EGGS.
Eggs. the dealer declared, ought to sell
by weight instead OF by the dozen. He
said all the egg dealers Would prefer
10 buy by the pound because it would
save so much counting. but he guessed
that would never come around while the
great mass Of consumers would pay just
the same price whether the dozen eggs
weighed one pound OF puund and a
half. He said that anybody who would
stop 10 reason would at once discover
that II one dozen eggs IN the spring.
weighing one pound is worth twenty
cents. a dozen Weighing a pound and a
half would be just as cheap for thirty
cents a dozen.
The egg dealer wanted the reporter 10
tell hin what was the reason that people
did not show any judgment in buying
eggs when they did everything else. He
said the dealers sold bananas b. the
dozen but they were never able TO set
anybody TO pay the same price for lit
tie bananas that would sell for the large
ones. He had sometimes thought that
there was something about an egg that
charmed peoples minds so that they
could not see and difference in a large
or 3 small egg.
