Live Stock Building
In his annual address President Co.'S

building live stock amphitheater at
the state fair grounds. He believed that
the legislature should appropriate
$250,000 for such a structure and that
the resultant advantages to the state
would make the investment highly
profitable

Father Meyer Gets Stronger
Hold on Ernst Building

Father George Meyer yesterday ac-
qufred the second mortgage on the
Ernst building. Fifth and Wabasha
streets, and another piece of property
on Wabasha, from William H. Egan.
Previous to filing the assignment of
the Egan mortgage with the register of
deeds, Father Meyer had secured from
Judge Lewis a decision holding that his
application for the appointment of
receiver for the property must be
heard on it's merits.
For $19,364 Egan transfers to Father
Meyer his interest in the Ernst proper
ty. The Egan claim has been held by
the courts to be second mortgage,
while the Meyer claim was held to be
the third lien. The Meyer, or third
mortgage, is for $4,000, making the
aggregate claim now held by Father
Meyer $41,364, exclusive of interest on
gage is for $4,000, and is held by the
Penn Mutual Life Insurance company.
Court proceedings were in the form
of motion in behalf of Watson P. Da-
wilson and r. L. Ware, against whom
Father Meyer brought the action ask

be dismissed. Father Meyer charged
that the rents collected are not being
properly applied, and particularly that

Conditions Are Described -
The hearing was enlivened by frequent
tilts between DIR. Ohage and Attorneys
Butler. of the Omaha, and Chamber
lain, of the Northern Pacific. J. Birse,
master mechanic Of the Great Western,
and John Lynch, travelling engineer of
the same road, reiterated some of the
arguments presented at the hearing
two weeks ago. They declared that it
was impossible for the railroads to use
anything but bituminous coal, and that
the railroads have no desire to create
black smoke. They pointed out that it is
in the interest of economy Of fuel that
the officials have ordered that no black
smoke be emitted. They declared, how
ever, that there are times when it is
impossible to avoid heavy smoke and
contended that it was unjust for en-
gineers to be made liable to arrest in
such cases
Attorney Chamberlain and DR.. Ohage
had debate over the photogra phing of
smoke, the lawyer contending that any
smoke, even steam, would show black
on the photographs, and that it was
possible for a photographer to so ad-
just his camera and develop his plates
that even thin smoke would appear
dense in the picture.
