RoBEL SEEKS NEW LOCATION
International Christian Institute VIII
Leave the DelIOne HO-
tel.

The International Christian institute
which has been conducting the Dellone
hotel for the last year and half, has ad-
Vertised the property for sale and will seek
another location in Omaha Just what
piece of property the institute expects to
buy Manager Robel, who is in charge OF the
Dellone, would not say, but he did say
positively that the institute would continue
to conduct a hotel in Omaha.
Upon taking charge OF the Dellone Man
ager Robel closed up the bar, discarded the
slot machines and began to conduct the
business along lines proposed by the Chris
tian institute. improvements were made in
the hotel to the extent Of about $4,000 and
only recently the kitchen was raised to the
first floor. upon which the dining room is
located.
Asked why he desired to sell the Dellone,
Manager Robel said:
I'VE desire to sell the Dellone in order TO
further plans which we have IN mind. From
a financial standpoint the Dellone has been
a paying institution since we began TO
run II, but the trustees have decided, in
order to carry out their plans, 10 dispose
OF the property. OF course, we may have
lost some patronage by reason of closing
the bar. but we have gained much, and
we have had the support OF good people
who agree with us In our manner OF con-
Quoting the business. We are having a
splendid trade now and It will get better,
but we desire to sell the property merely
TO carry out our plans.
I'VE shall remain IN Omaha I'm the hotel
business and just soon we dispose OF
the Dellone we win secure possession OF
other property, but Of course at this time
l could not say just what property we ex-
pect TO get. However. We are not offering
the Delone for sale because II is not a
financial success. Our patronage Is all we
could expect"

BILLS ON THE OLD RATE
That is the Way the water Company
IL Making Out It's Acc
counts.

The Omaha Water company has an
nounced its policy regarding the order
issued by the Water board May !, propos-
Ing to reduce meter rates to small con-
sumers. Although its request for a tenn
porary injunction against the operation OF
the order has been refused by the federal
court, the company considers the question
still in litigation and until final adJudica-
ton, declines to act under the order. Its
bills are made out at the old rates and pay
ments under the new RACES are received
under protest and in such a manner as to
permit future collections of the amount
withheld in case the company eventually
wins. The company expects, however, to
collect bills at the old rates, with the under
standing that should 1t lose the case the
excuses will be refunded. Following are
the new rates ordered by the Water board,
amounting to about 10 cents per 1000 gals

COLLECTION OF ESTATE TAX
Process Will Bs Slow and Involve Many
Suits, Says County Attorney.
EFFECT OF THE LAW EXPLAINED
Several Estates Added to the Liat
Subject to the Inheritance Tax
-VinHOnhnler's ONCE
Force Busy.

THE collection OF the inheritance tax
on estates passing in this county will re-
quire a great many suits, but we are get
ting at it as fast as we can" says County
Attorney SlabauSh. The Nebraska inher-
itance tax law is almost an exact duplicate
of the Illinois law, which has been tested
and taken up to the supreme court and
upheld in every respect. l do not believe
people understand what the effect OF the
law is. The tax is imposed on every
tate in excess of $4,000. varying in
amounts according to the closeness or re-
moteness of the heirship, but the tax is
lien on all the property, and every piece
of such property that has baen sold or
transferred since July, 1901, is subject to
the lien of any unpaid inheritance tax.
This applies not only to estates that have
gone through probate, but also to Others
like the Noyes estate, for which no ad-
minstrator was appointed. II people had
known that the inheritance tax was a lien
upon the property, l believe II would have
been paid on all these estates long ago."
Going over the Papers,
Clyde Sundblad Of the county judges
| Office is putting in a good deal OF time
in going over the papers in estates that
have passed through probate since laOl or

The drivers en- gagged during the strike and retained are efficient, and the old men taker back are certainly good drivers, what ever they did. The public was incon' venienced by the strike, and it was pa tient, and I told Mir.

The final arguments were made yes terday morning in the contest over the will of the late Edwin R. Whitney of Dixwell avenue by his son, Leroy Whit ney. The contest has been on for near ly a year, and involves an estate of about $60,O00.
 Attorney Prentiss Chase represents the contestant, and in his final argu- ment yesterday he took occasion to hit at expert testimony. Attorney Chase said in part L
 "A race between lawyers to the ex- pert's doorway is no tnfrequent sight, each knowing the winner gets the prize and the. expert the price. Of course they are expected to favor the side whose whose money lured them into the comedy, and therefore hypothetical questions are arranged between the eX- pert and the lawyer, inviting an an- swer true in itself, but of no earthly consequence in determining the issue in the case. Such evidence is getting to be so common that most lawyers and nearly all men sitting in our juries have ceased to take a serious view of 1t.
