FRANK MURPHY LIBRARY GIFT
Ten Thousand Dollars Not Turned Over
Because Estate is Unsettled.
NO DIFFICULTY ABOUT OBTAINING MONEY
Some Think Request Cannot BE Used
by Board without Special
Charter Provision Made
by Legislature.

Mention of the Frank Murphy bequest to
the Omaha public library at the Portland
meeting of the Western Library associa-
ton has suggested inquiries as to when
the $4,000 left by the will of the late
street railway magnate is to be received
and how 1t IL to be used. President l. s.
Reed of the library board is reserved in
remarks concerning the bequest.
IF 1 remember the terms of the will
correctly" said he, "the money is left to
be expended for public library purposes
but at the direction of the mayor and
council. This beingAthe case, it seems to
me the library board has little or no con-
troll of the money, or, at least, not until
1t has been turned over to the board by
the mayor and council. So far as 1 know
the amount has not yet been placed in the
hands of the city treasurer by the executors
OF the estate; neither has the mayor and
council taken any action regarding 1t. The
library board is in receptive mood and, Of
course, would be glad to have the bequest
placed to its credit that it might be
used to lettering and charging the insti-
tuition"
Question for the Lawyers.
President Reed was asked whether or not
the charter limitation of $4,000 yearly on
library expenditures and the provision of
the new charter requiring all surplus
money to be turned into the city general
fund at the end of the year did not pre-
vent acceptance of the gift until after a
charter amendment had been passed by the
legislature making 1t possible to use the
legacy and at the same time not sacrifice
any Of the annual revenue from the city
THAT is a legal question and for the
lawyers to decide" replied President Reed
ut has not yet been taken under consid'
| Grafton by the Judiciary committee nor sub
mitted to an attorney"
others familiar with the law and library
board AFFAIRS say, however, that there is
| no way in which the Murphy gift can be
utilized without a special charter provi
| sion.
Frank T. Hamilton, executor of the Muir
ply estate, was asked II the money haC
yet been paid to the city.
1T has not" replied Mr.. Hamilton. ''rh'
estate is In process of settlement. but 81
far as l know thsre will not be any din
culties about following out the terms Of tn,
will regarding the library bequest It viii
be paid over within a year and the city will
be free TO spend 1t as 1t likes on hbrar!
property. The exact conditions are no
now distinct in my mind"

mot guilty" was the verdict of the jury
in the case OF alleged criminal libel brought
in the district court in the name Of the
state by r. b. Howell against Edward
Rosewater.
The jury came into court at 2:15, after
being out not quite three hours Half of
this time was consumed. in going to and
from the Drexel hotel for dinner.
Immediately on retiring the jury took a
ballot, which showed ten for acquittal and
two for conviction. A smile went around
the circle, for no one seemed TO take the
two negative votes as indicating the real
sentiments Of the men who cast them.
There was practical agreement from the
start, as intimated by one juryman, that
the only malice shown in the case had
been by the prosecuting witness while on
the stand.
After lunch the jury settled down to
smoke a cigar and chat OF the features Of
the case informally This done, another
ballot was taken and showed an agree
ment. The signal bell was rung and the
report made to Bailiff KirRcndall that the
jury was ready to come into court.
Howell Not Present ut End.
Judge Day was on hand, as was County
| Attorney Slabaugh and his assistant Mr..
| Shotwell r. b. Howell, the prosecuting
Witness had got to the court room before
2 O'Clock, evidently expecting a short ses-
| sion by the jurymen. He waited until 21O
| and then got up nervously and went away.
! He had not returned when the jury delv-
| cred its verdict through Foreman Hawkins.
Immediately on being discharged from
| attendance on court, and when the jury
| had also been released, Mr.. Rosewator was
| congratulated by the people who were pres
! ent. He shook hands with the jurymen
! as they filed out and then fell into line
| with the departing citizens and went back
I TO his duties in the big building across the
| street.
County Attorney Siapaugn occupied some
thing like an hour in his closing address
| He was interrupted in the midst of his
talk by message from the prosecuting
witness insisting that he read certain
article to the jury, which he did.
Judge Days charge was quite lengthy
1t embodied three special instructions
asked by the defense, going to the ques-
ton of malice and good motive and as tc
the exact time when Howell became q
state senator.
