suit in the United States circuit court for
specific performance to compel the city
and Water board to accept the plant under
the appraisement and to pay for it. The
water board lawyers argued that the ap-
praisement was excessive, that the terms
agreed upon by the contending parties were
not complied with and that the finding was
reached by only two of the three appraisers
and should have been by all three
On June %, 1907, decree was entered by
Judge Munger in the United States circuit
court, dismissing the bill Of complaint of
the water company. An appeal was taken
to the United States circuit court of ap-
peals by the water company and on April
T. 1908, decree was Issued from that court
by unanimous action of all the judges, re-
versing the decision of the lower court. de-
ciaring the appraisement valid and binding
upon the city of Omaha and requiring the
city to complete the purchase.
The water board lawyers made applica-
ton to the supreme court OF the United
States for a writ of certiorari, which is
equivalent to an appeal from the decision of
the circuit court of appeals and the same
was granted The case was recently argued
before the United States supreme court
oy John Lee Webster for the water board
ana city and by r. S. Hall and Howard
mansfield for the water company.
While the case was sttll pending in the
United States supreme court, the city OF
omaha, on demand of the water board
voted $6,5OoOOO bonds for the purchase of
the plant and extensions.
ihe water company lawyers scored an i'm
portant point by directing the courts atten-
ton to the voting of bonds as acquiescence
In the reasonableness OF the award and
recognition Of the clty's obligation to buy.

given her by boy, and, further, than her
admission that she has seen nothing of
her husband, who was janitor at the
school, since his disappearance on January
IA, when he drew 500 from the bank. she
will say nothing about him
The police are weaving a chain of cir
cumstantial evidence about the missing
janitor, for whom they last night began a
wide search. Clothing which he is known
to have worn bears numerous stains which
the detectives said were traces of blood
A hat recovered from an old barrel where
Mrs. vending stated she had thrown it
ABOUT the time of the janitor's flight also
bears similar discolorations. The trap door
TO the subcellar was so effectively hidden
that it's existence could have been known
TO no one not most Intimately acquainted
with the building. The keys to the school
building, say the police. were always in
Weddings possession, who was given en-
ployment one month before the disappear
ance of Alma Kellner. Other carpet like
