JTMS co TO FIGHT CHARTER
Mayor and Tanning Lead Attack on
Hitchcock Measure.
WILL LOBBY AGAINST THE BILL
Unless IL is Amended So as to Let the
Mayor Name Fire and Police
Board It's War 60
the Hit.

"Unless the charter is amended so as to
give the mayor the power to appoint MEM
bers Of the fire and police board. the entire
new charter will be held up and not al
lowed to pass. We will continue TO work
along under the old charter unless this
change is made. There will be no cutting
out OF the provisions as regards the excise
board and the passage of the rest of the
charter. 1t will be all or nothing"
So spake Colonel Charles E. flaming
Monday on the eve Of his departure for
the capital to lobby against Congressman
Hitchcock's amendment to the charter
making members of the excise board cleo
tive. The colonel. together with Mayor
Dahlman and several other Of the Jlms,
eXpect to leave Tuesday for Lincoln. They
will register as lobbyists and put in their
entire time or changing the one section.
Colonel Tanning is positive that the whole
charter or nothing will be passed and Is
equally sure that he can tie It up in the
legislature unless, the fire and police board
clause is amended 80 as to give the mayor
the appointing power. He looks for th4s
amendment to be made in the house. 1t
wi. then have TO go back to the senate
for approval and unless Ransom and his
lieutenants relent the Jimocrats will get in
their work and kill the whole bill.
Joe Butler and other leaders are in favor
OF offering Congressman Hitchcock's con-
gressional seat to Senator Ransom IL he
will change front and come out in favor
Of an appointive board, the desire of Mayor
Dahlman's heart. This is scoffed at by
Colonel flaming, however. who says that
Ransom would not look at a proposition as
small as that.
I'VE would have to offer Frank Ransom
a seat in the United States senate" said
the colonel, and that we haven't got"
TIL Douglas county delegation to the leg
i~slature will caucus Tuesday evening and
Tom Flynn, street commissioner, will go to
the capitol and appear before the contin-
gent with a request for more money for his
department. The same sum is granted for
street cleaning this year as was fixed by
the legislature two years ago. Last year
over twenty miles OF new paving was laid
and the street commissioner m that
before another legislative session fully
fifty miles of new paving will be laid which
must, or ought to, be kept clean. with

Means some Work.

To provide for entertaining such a num-
Der OF live guests means some work
and the committee placed in charge will
have a good summers work. The enter
ainment of the Eagles taxes the largest
cities in the west. Seattle had a whole
city full and wished IT had another street
or two dug out of the hill so they would
have more room. Milwaukee entertained
the Bagles one lime and though the city
has automobile factories, the Eagles
quickly bulled the market and the rental
went up from So per hour to s. and
closed sharply at s. per hour, with the
supply very short. Tit machines would
run one hour to a second, drive up TO the
curb any place in the business part Of
the city, and four to six Eagles would
fly to the automobile. each member having
a IS bill for the driver. and away would
20 the machine for another spin.
The coming of the Eagles to Omaha
will mean some busy automobiles for a
week. About twice or three times as
many machines will be needed as have
been used in connection with any other
convention.
The average attendance will be more
than 1900 daily. That is equal to 1900
people for one day. every one spending
money TO entertain himself at the rate Of
IS to $40 per day, and the business men
are getting ready to keep up their end. -

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, June 1.-The wheat mar ket had several sinking spells today fall sown crop and to the northward spread of harvest operations, but closed fairly steady with prices 1-4 cent high cent guGes corn snd Wts oats closed easy. but provisions were firm.
 Renewed selling of the July delivery was the feature of trading in the wheat over a range of 9 1-2 cents. At times the market was decidedly weak but buying of the deferred futures by steadier feeling. The chief factor in the situation was the near approach of harvest in several of the leading winter wheat States and the generally Southwest Foreign crop< advices also were more optimistic, additional rains being reported in Argentina and Ger many. while shipments of wheat this week from India and the South Ameri- can country were considerably larger than had been expected. The improved sible for a decline of 3-4d to 7-Sd at Liverpool which had a weakening ef- feet here at the start.
 substantial rally occurred toward midday owing to the strength of north western markets particularly that at Winnipeg which was up cents. The upturn in these markets was due large ly to brisk demand for the cash grain. Minneapolis reported that more wheat had been sold there yesterday to country mills than on any previous day.
 The advance induced fresh selling of July and the price of that option de- clined from IF 5-S to 115 Ia At the close the July delivery was 1-2 cent below the previous close, hut the Sep tenn Der and December options showed slight gains.
 The corn market was nervous nearly all day in sympathy with the sudden turns in wheat but at times displayed considerable flrmness owing to light offerings from the country. Weather conditions were more favorable for the new crop and the official forecast was for fair weather generally throughout the corn belt. Prices during the day fuctuated over a range of about 1 cent. An easy tone prevailed at the close and prices were a shade higher to Is to l-4 cent lower compared with yesterdays close
 Oats were weak on general selling, based on the bright prospects for the new crop. Cash interests were fairly liberal sellers of the September deliv- cry. The market closed weak with prices off 1-4 to 3-4 cent.
 Provisions were easy at the start. because of increased receipts of live hogs. but became firm during the last half of the day on buying by local packers. Final quotations showed gains of to l2 1-2 cents.
