BIG FUND FOR UNIVERSITY
Half Million Is the Initial Amount
which Promoters VIII
strive For.

Resolutions were adopted last night at a
meeting OF those interested in the proposed
University OF Omaha. declaring in favor of
raising $500, 600, 500, 900 to be used for build
inRs and grounds and $500. 900 for endow-
ment. DR.. IL. II. Maynard. financial sec
rotary, explained the whole proposition
fully, and this resolution came sas a result
of his explanation and a general discussion
In which all those present entered. About
twenty-five people, mostly residents OF
Kountze Place. attended the meeting.
DR.. Maynard expects to leave I'm a few
days for the east In the hope Of raising
$780, 600 there. the other $4,000 to be raised
In Omaha. He was careful to state that
this first t500.O 900 will be but a starter, and
that before many years ave elapsed ii Is
hoped that from $500 900 to 5000, 900 will be
invested in the university property and en-
dowment. The doctor will first go to John
d. Rockefeller's education committee, a
representative OF which visited Bellevue a
year ago and the same as told friends of
the Omaha university that his committee
would give money to an Omaha institution.
The first payment, 5000, has been made
on the tract OF land decided upon by the
university trustees for the location OF the
new educational Institution. This tract
comprises the Kountze and Redlck estate
holdings from Twenty-first street to TWEEN
ty-fifth street. lying between Pinkney and

EASING UP ON STREET RAILWAY
Ambulance Chasers Not as strongly
in Evidence IN Court Records
as Elsewhere.

Not many damage suits against the
Omaha & Council Bluffs Street railway
have been Initiated at recent terms OF court,
though the number OF personal injury
cases OF other kinds has not diminished
This is illustrated In the days preceding
the opening OF the February term of court
when petitions are filed in the clerks Of
flee, but the street railway company does
not appear as defendant. The reason for
this is that the company nearly two years
ago adopted the policy of settling all cases
possible out of court. Not. Of course,
''hold-up" affairs. but those In which the
plaintiff might get a verdict II the matter
went TO a jury.
While other damage suits continue In
orthodox number. the practice OF "ambu-
lance chasing does not appear to grow in
Omaha. and Is assuredly not nearly so
much of a crying evil as in many other
communities. a fact which speaks well for
the ethical practice OF the Douglas county
bar. 1t also t~estifies somewhat 10 the fact
that temptations cannot be so great as in
cities larger and smaller. In the former
there are numerous lawyers with nothing
else to do than work up cases of the kind
against corporations, because there are 50
many lawyers for the amount OF legitimate
business at hand; In smaller toyns the
total business which the bar is called upon
TO transact is often p~itifully small. Hence
the fact that the neighborhood OF a home
where some injured man is resting often
looks a few hours after the accident as il
a conversation OF attorneys was on.

Thla Year.

Stockholders Of the National Corn EXPOSE
ton voted to increase the capitalization Of
the corporation from 10000 to 10000 at
their annual meeting Tuesday noon and
reelected the old board OF directors.
II was the sense of the stockholders that
an assessment should be levied against
them sufficient to make up the $4,000
treasury deficit. which is not really a
deficit. but simply an additional assessment
to those already being made.
The actual condition Of the finances of
the exposition look like this: The corpora
ton has a capital stock of $4,000 and 10000
was subscribed-to be paid i'm on demand.
This amount of $4,000 might have been
called and was subject to call. being sub
scribed with the understanding that the
enterprise might require every dollar the
promotion work managed that only 70 pei
cent Of the amount subscribed was called.
This brought the exposition up to the open
ing day. The show was a success. The
gate receipts were $4,000, the income from
other sources $4,000 and the total expendi-
lures $4,000. Thu the treasury needs SO, 0ot

the amount subscribed. Considered on this
basis the exposition made-or saved-$l5.O 900

mite and officers will be selected at a
meeting to be held early, as work will
begin at once on the National Corn expo
sition of 1909.
President G. w. Wattles opened the meet
ing by speaking of the success of the last
corn show and called on T. F. Sturgess to
read the report Of the finances 1t was
shown by this report that while $4,000
was subscribed to the $4,000 capital stock,
but $1,000 was assessed. The admissions
and revenues of the exposition paid all but
10000 on a total expenditure of $4,000 The
cost Of the Auditorium and temporary
buildings, with lighting and decorating was
$23,OOO, the largest item on the entire list.
Other items were small in comparison. Only
1900 was spent for publicity, while the
model kitchen. one of the biggest attrac-
tons at the show. cost but a little more
than $1,000. Exhibits cost the exposition
heavily. The receipts at the gate were
s6. 900 and almost SO, 600 was obtained from
concessions.
C. C. Rosewater, chairman OF the execu-
tive committee, spoke of the necessities OF
putting the exposition or rather keeping II
on a sound business basis and favored
stock subscriptions to donations. He said
the $4,000 which Omaha paid for the eX-
position of 1908 would not buy the advertis'
ing which it made for the city II any city

Using which the city received. Mr.. Rose
water also read letters from prominent mer
in all parts<o the country who were asked
to make criticisms on the show and theiI
replies rang only with praise.
Those who spoke in favor Of getting theiI
shoulders to the wheel for another year
