AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
City Clerk Presents Statement Of
Financial Status Of the City.
MONEY ENOUGH FOR THE YEAR
Judgment and water Funds only Ones
which Appear Likely 90 he I'm
Distress with Good Man
aEement.

The city clerk made his regular monthly
statement yesterday. showing that of avail
able funds amounting to s9o3, 1873. $685.
S99.9S had been expended in the first three
months of the fiscal year. A balance OF
S139, 1915 remains to be expended. The
average expenditures of the month would,
therefore,, be $H,0 600 in round numbers. This
average is misleading for the reason that
the city council found It necessary to pay
up a lot of debts left over from the last
administration, using the entire judgment
fund in the first month. The expenditures
OF the first month amounted to more than
$4,000. This amount was much reduced In
the month following. The last two months
might, therefore, be the best comparison
Of the average expenditures. This shows
that 1900 Is about the average. The funds
will be ample II this average is maintained.
No more judgments can be paid this year.
but they must be passed over to the next
levy. The water company also has served
notice on the city that no more fire ny
drants will be installed for the reason that
the fund will not warrant 1t.
The voting machines, which had a special
fund. have all been paid for and the fund
is therefore cancelled.
The detailed report follows:

Three Arrested as Suspects.


Dan Miller, Alexander McDonevich and
Nicholas Savich have been arrested as sus-
poets. It is believed that the men, who
are Austrians, were concerned in the rob-
berry Of Alexander Grants saloon at Thir-
tieth and Q streets. The robbery occurred
Saturday or Sunday nights but was not
discovered until Monday morning. The de-
~tectives nave had the Austrains under sus-
picion, and on visiting their rooms some of
the stolen liquor, 1t is alleged, was found in
their possession. The booty consisted of
several gallons OF whisky, some rum, wine
and cigars. Since the saloon was entered,
these men, 1t is said, had been intoxicated
most of the time, and it was that which
first drew suspicion on them. Nicholas
Savlch was released on bord. but the 9TH
ers are still in Jail.
