AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Omaha Packing Company to Erect q
Modern Smokehouse.
WORK IS TO COMMENCE AT ONCE
Chance that City and Champion Iron
Works May Agree on n Com
promise I'm the City Jail
Controversy.

General Manager Ii. y. Culver OF the
Omaha Packing company stated yesterday
that the building of a new and modern
smoke house for the Omaha plant would
begin at once. The new building will be
located at the southeast corner OF the new
plant and will be four or five stories in
height and valued at about 100000 Plans
for this building were filed nearly year
ago and 1t is likely that the construction
would now be under way had not the
present been time of general liquidation,
during which few firms have engaged In
building new structures.
At the old plant, which is still shoulder
ing from the big fire, it is determined to
rebuild the ice plant at all events. What
other buildings will be constructed, have
not yet been determined by the manage
ment The Insurance adjusters are in the
city busy with the estimates OF losses.
Talk of Compromise on jail.
It is now hinted that there may be a
possibility of compromising the jail prop
osition with the Champion Iron works.
The president Of the company, G. ]. Carter.
said he was anxious to avoid a suit. 1t
was suggested that the company might
take out at least one panel at the back
of each cell and substitute a grating with
out cost to the city. The attorneys for
the firm made a like statement yesterday
evening 1t appears that the COMPANY is
willing to compromise to save the expense
of a lawsuit The city officials have ex-
pressed desire to accomplish the same
purpose. The expense or cost of making
the changes required will be nominal, and
1t is possible the city may get the com
pany to do the work by making the proper
.a1f
clamoring for the new Jail.
Runaway from KenrHey Captured.
The police arrested Ralp Piper, known
popularity as Boots Piper" yesterday as
fugitive from justice, He is a boy who was
sentenced TO a term in the Industrial School
at Kearney nearly a year ago. He escaped
from the school after he had been in the
ins titution three days. About a week ago
h. returned to South Omaha, and has been
in semi-hiding ever since. Yesterday he
was located at the residence Of Marcells.
He told the police frankly all he had been
doing since he escaped from the reform
school His experiences were varied with
hunor and hardship, just right to take the
far cy OF a boy Of his ago He seemed
cheerful over his arrest He may be re-
turned within a few days to the school. He
was sent up for taking a brooch OF consid-
erat le value from his benefactress.
