NEBRASKA CITY, Nsb., March 3.-(spe-
cial)-At a meeting OF the city council last
evening, the ordinance granting TO the
water and light company a new franchise
for a term OF fifteen years and reducing
the water and light rentals TO nearly one
third less than they have been came up.
The fight up TO the vote on the ordinance
was an interesting one and the ordinance
failed TO pass under a suspension OF the
rules by a vote OF 5 10 g. Those voting
against the ordinance were Councilman
Houston. Hubanks and schemoras.
w. y. Pitzer. attorney for the water and
light company withdrew all concessions,
which the company had made in the matter
and stated that officers and employees OF
the company had been written to and sp-
preached regarding the matter Of the
franchise and offers 10 get the franchise
IL certain amounts OF money were guar
anteed. He intimated that this had been
done by outsiders and not members OF the
council. The charges were such that some
action will have to be taken in the matter
and may result in the calling of a special
grand jury to investigate and the air is
thick with rumors regarding trouble for
some one or more persons here.
II is promised to present the matter to
the county attorney and to Judge Travis
and have the charges investigated. The
matter OF granting this has caused much
trouble for the members because Of the

to want another franchise, but who have

BETHERS' DEATH ENIGMA
Inquest Sheds No Light on Cinder Car
Affair.
RELATIVES IDENTIFY HIS BODY
sNan Found Charred 20 Crisp Proves
to Be Council BIuns HunchbRck
who Had Been D~cspOndent
over Death Of Brother.

No light on the cause OF death Of the
man found in the car at Valley was shed
by the coronePs Jury at the inquest in
the afternoon. The verdict was to the
effect that the deceased. supposed to be
Henry Bethers came to his death By causes
unknown to the jury. but supposedly by
being burned to death.
The testimony Of the coroner's physician
is to the effect that no foul play. at
least none Of a violent form, such as frac-
turing the skull. caused death.
All the relatives Of Henry Bethers, except
the mother, were present at the inquest
and are confident that the body is that of
Henry Bethers.
Bethers had been absent from home for
the last two weeks and had announced his
intention Of going to Valley. He was
respondent over the recent accidental death
OF his brother.
In the sheriffs office the opinion is
strong that the circumstances point To
foul play. II is pointed out that it is most
unlikely that the body was in the car from
the time 1t left Council Bluffs. and the
fact that the body was unhurt by fire when
discovered is cited in proof Of this.
Tramp Finds the Body.
4 tramp made the discovery Monday
evening at $50. He notified a Russian who
works at the stock yards and the Russian
later told the station agent. When that
Official could set 10 go down he went and
removed the body. The tramp. who was a
young man ran away-as fast-as he could
after notifying the Russian.

Newspapers aud periodicals and SCI

the controversy which promises to last
all winter Or longer between the paFti-
SAILS Of Feary aud Of Cook.
Mutual frieuds Of the two explorers
are almost vt dagger's point. aud the
people are divided into two great hos
lille camps over the question:
Did Cook and his two Eskimos or
did Peary aud his negro tirst run up

frozen country of the north poIey
1t Is not altogether unlikely that We
may really never know who is entitled
to the honor Of bs.inx the first discov-
erer. Aud In whatsoever favor science
eventually may decide Or II 1t decide.
In favor Of bOth l'eary and Cook there
will always Ike those who are uncon-
vinced.
However that may be. q large share
| 0f the credit In any event must be Civ
en to the Eskimo dog. Without the

cred.
And II auy should be dined and ap-
| plauded 1t Is the stanch dog who did

burdens without complaint or striking

| Why not stop the controversy be-
tween Cook and i'eary aud their fol
lowers long enough to give royal ban
quet To the thirty-six dogs Of Peary
and the eighteen dogs Of Cook:
And among the toasts there would
be one to be drunk in silence and
standing to the dead-to the dogs who
gave up their flesh to feed the starv-
ing men.
Give the Eskimo dog his due With
out that stout servitor and faithful
four legged companion the stars and
stripes would not be floating In the re-
gion Of the pole.
Wn0t une neiI'er 10 man the dog
has always been.
in the first glimpse We get Of th&.
man Of the stone age and his cave his
faithful dog bears him company, and
now In the very latest glimpse Of
mans great triumph the dog is there.
Indeed. 1t may be said. some of those
Eskimo dogs-if either or both the
brave Americans reached the pole
were there first
The dogs have no scientific data or
daily Journals to submit to candid
world TO prove they were first on the
ground-or the ice-but 1t stands to
reason that some of the eighteen of
Cooks or the tlirty-six Of l'eary's
shaggy dogs 6rst straddled the nine
tiath degree.
