"DUCK|NG" PROHIBITED
 BY THE FIRE CHIEF
There Is to Be No More Baptism Of
 Passers By.

Chief of the Fire Department Bracket issued instructions to the members of the two hose companies Saturday night that hereafter no 'ducking' would be permitted. On the several occasions when the boys have practiced. it has been too much of a temptation for them to resist turning the water on pedestrians. and the parties thus receiving the unex- pected bath rather objected. some times in language more forcible than polite. The danger in throwing such a large stream of water on an indi- vidual is easily seen, not to note the inconvenience. although the boys were only actuated by a spirit of fun. and had no intention whatever of any harm coming of it. However. it will not occur again.

SURRENDER SELVESTOCOURT
Burnam, Dunn and Rine GO to Lin
coin for Execution.
TO FACE CHARGES OF CONTEMPT
Dunn Shoulder Blame for Writing
Brief that Offended official Dig
nifty of Judge Rose Of the
Supreme Bench.

City Attorney Burnam and his two as
~sistants, !. j.. Dunn and j. A Rine went
to Lincoln last evening to deliver
themselves up to the state supreme court
Thursday morning.
All three have been cited to show cause
why they should not be punished for con-
tempt of court in having filed a brief on
cha Of the city that is held by the high
judges to have fractured some Of the most
solemn rules of legal etiquette.
Some Of the fractures are diagnosed as
compound and of the most dangerous char
aoter; so serious, in fact, that the offend
ing brief was plucked from the files of the
court, disinfected and flung over the tram
som into the dark room where things not
popular with the court are inferred, or, at
least, may be forgotten.
Assistant City Attorney Dunn has shout.
dered the blame for the brief that shocked
the judges sense of decorum, and main
.tains that it sets out the truth, as he
sees 1t, and in language only sufficiently
strong to convey to the court his idea Of
the merits Of the case. Therein Judge Rose
is named a great many times, and at no
point is his erudition, logic and legal learn
ing alluded to in a manner remotely touch
ing the bouquetesque. On the contrary.
Mr.. Dunn has put into print a good many
limitations in vigorous combinations Of
words that Judge Rose is not even a side
walk expert In cases like the one before
the bar, and there is just a hint here and
there that he is rot the, best judge known
to the city attorney's office.
The decision with which Mr.. Dunn takes
issue was written by Justice Rose in up
holding a decision against the city of
Omaha, wherein the Jury gave to Anna ].
Robinson a verdict for personal injuries
alleged to have been sustained by reason
Of a defective sidewalk. The city went to

ceeded to build them.
City Engineer Craig said the resolution
was but one OF many put through In times
past that had brought about a very serious
condition which his department was trying
to rectify. He did not believe such a reso-
luton would stand the test Of the courts
and said 200 cases of a similar nature are
now listed in his office.
Nearly every councilman spoke against
the custom OF intruding on the sidewalk
space and on the street space and the
resolution was referred to the city attorney,
city engineer and city building inspector.
The county commissioners presented a
resolution calling for a new sewer on How
ard street, made necessary by the new
court house, and asked that the council pay
half of the total cost, which will be 50, 200.

for paving the street.

CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Councilman Berka Introduces New
Revenue Ordinance.
PROVIDES FOR TAX ON sUBwAYs
Halt IL Called on Custom of Private
Parties IntrudInE on Streets and
sidewalks Contrary to City
Charter.

Councilman Berka introduced an ordi-
nance at the meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening which IL designed to
bring a revenue to the city from private
parties building subways under the streets
or alleys or bridges across alleys.
1t provides that in every case where
parties desire to build subways or bridges
they shall first obtain permits from the
city council. They must also file a bond
In the sum Of 5000 to exempt the city
from any claim for damages or injury be-
cause of such construction The payment
to the city shall be based on l per cent
Of the assessed average value per square
foot Of the property and building for
which the subway or bridge is TO be built
and i'm no case is the payment to the city
to be less than $50 a year.
The ordinance was referred to the COM
mittee Of the whole.
The ordinance providing for the estab-
lishment Of the office Of assistant city vet
erinarian and slaughter house inspector, at
a salary OF s125 a month, providing the
fees amount to that sum, was reintro-
duced. 1t was accompanied by the com
panion ordinance for ante-mortem and
post-mortem inspection Of all meat killed
in Omaha or killed elsewhere and brought

When Councilman Sheldon introduced a
resolution Tuesday evening to permit the
Norwegian-Danish church to build its steps
three feet beyond the lot line, there was

Producing the resolution said he had done
so by request, but understood the city

DEMOCRATSB BLAME GOVERNOR
Flynn and Heafey Say Shallenberger
Caused Party's Defeat.
HE REPUDIATED HIS PLEDGES
Governor shallenbeFger's Action in
Going Hack on All His Promises
D~iscredited Us with the
People," They Say.

Coroner Heafey is a member Of Governor
Shallenberger's staff. but that does not
prevent him from. coinciding with Tom
Flynn, boss nsmocrat. in declaring that
Governor Shallenberger's population of
personal and party pledges is to blame for
he overwhelming defeat of the democrats
in Douglas county.
Flynn, former county chairman, boss Of
the Jlmocrats and street commissioner Of
Omaha, is vigorous in his assertion of this
fact aud Heafey insists that the smallness
Of his vote In South Omaha is ample proof
Of Ffynn's diagnosis. Heafey expected at
least 1000 majority in South Omaha. but
got 300.
Nor are Messrs. Flynn and Heafey the
only democrats who are making these dec
larations. Every democrat in town who is
standing up and telling his right name is
doing the same thing. It's a beautiful
chorus Of Observation-Disclosures anvils in this
great metropolis of Nebraska today. And
hese irate and lugubrious democrats are
iot trying to conceal their belief that the
same cause which led TO their downfall in
Douglas county will, coupled with the rec.
ords 81 the last legislature, encompass
their humiliating defeat in the state in

Renewed on
Importers Graft
Fruit Men Charged with Abusing
Privilege of Deducting for
Decay.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-"Break up the
importers graft is the slogan OF the Treas
ury department and its customs collectors
just now, and the acting secretary today
contributed another chapter in the govern
ments fight against the abuses Of the prlvi-
lege Of allowance for decay while fruit is
being held subject to entry.
Investigation has shown that the rules
governing the allowances are being trlfled
with and that the importers In many cases
leave the fruit at the government docks
until they are ready TO deliver Il, then enter
Il with a claim for allowance for decay,
and sell the same goods regardless Of the
governments allowance for impairment Of
the goods.
Collector Loeb is advised in today's in
structions that where no entry Is made by
the importer for %perishable fruit, such as
lemons. etc, within foTty-eight hours after
the entry OF the vessel, such fruit should BE-
treated as unclaimed, and not being entitled
