ONLY ONE BIDDER ON BONDS
City Council Unable to Accept Offer
of Ninety-Nine Cents.
SEVERAL REASONS ARE GIVEN
ComInisSiOner ButIer Enumerates
Some of the objections that
Are Raised by Average
Outside investor.

Only one bid, and II was below par. was
received by the council for the s3650OO
sewer, intersection and street improve
ment bonds advertised for sale. The coun-
Gil, waiting for other bidders, took a
recess until the afternoon. The bid was
20 cents Kountze Bros OF New York, the
city's fiscal agents, refused to bid, say ing
the law passed by the recent legislature
making Lincoln instead OF New York the
fiscal agency was unfair. in that more
exchange would have to be paid.
Dan B. Butler, city commissioner OF
finance and accounts. and Treasurer w.
q. Ure discussed the situation. Butler
said In his opinion several things con-
spired TO hold back the bidders. Among
other things the Hs5,OOO street improve
ment bonds which are not guaranteed by
the faith and credit OF the entire city. but
by the separate improvement districts.
did not meet with the whole approval OF
bond purchasers.
We have money to purchase SS5, 900 OF
these Improvement bonds' said Butler,
and all bond buyers ought to know that
they are good. They always have been
and always will be good. The bonds OF
the city are good and there is no reason
why bids should be submitted below
par"
Cnder the law the city commission
cannot sell city bonds below par But
Ter believes Omaha firms. knowing the
low condition OF the bond market now.
should take up these bonds.
As an indication OF the condition OF the
bond market the Water board has ar
ranged 10 buy back si00,0lO OF its bonds
below par. IL Is the belief OF some OF
tho city commissioners that the fact that
these bonds can now be purchased for
se has led bond buyers TO the conclusion
that Omaha city bonds are worth no
more. as water district bonds are guar
anteed by the faith OF the entire city,
even as the sower and intersection bonds
are.

EGGS REACH OMAHA
Price is Such that American Hen is
Threatened.
EGGS ARE VERY MUCH SMALLER
Commission Men say They Could ne
sold In Omaha for from ~ 20
20 Cents, Whilc LocaI Price
u Now - Cents.

In the Chinese hen her American sister
has a most active and dangerous COM
petitor in the opinion Of good many OF
the Omaha produce commission men. The
Chinese egg has arrived In Omaha and
while not on the market. II is here and
the prices that come along with Il are
said to indicate that the product OF the
Chinese hen can be sold at prices that
viii make those Of the home product look
sick.
George Clark. one OF the leading oper-
stors on the produce commission row is
in receipts OF case OF Chinese eggs that
came direct from China. having been en-
route only about one month. They we're
sent TO him, not to sell. hut more as n
curiousity TO show the kind Of an egg
the Chinese hen lays. In color the eggs
are dark and resemble those OF the
Plymouth Rock. but they are small p
small enough so that IL offered for safe
on this market they would have 10 be
graded as seconds
Owing to their small size the Chinese
eegs received by Mr. Clark are not at
tractive but the price that he says could
be attached makes up for what they
lack In looks. Mr.. Clark says these eggs
could pay the freight across the ocean to
san Francisco. the rail charge to Omaha,
all the commission charges and be placed
in the homes OF the consumers at IS to 20
cents per dozen.
Local Eggs Are Seconds.
Commission men say that the majority
OF eggs bought by the majority Of con-
sumers are seconds and that now they
are retailing at "a to S cents per dozen.
whereas firsts fetch as a rule cents
more per dozen. This gives the Chinese
eggs an advantage OF around cents per
dozen In the event they were placed In
competition with the American eggs of
the second grade.
Mr. Clark is of the opinion that even
with the tariff off eggs. IL will be a long
time before the Chinese eggs will be on
the Omaha market. but they are going
10 be the eggs OF the Pacific coast This,
he thinks, will result In destroying the
market there for the eggs from the cen
trail west and, as the field to be supplied
u curtailed. prices consequently will go
lower than at the present time
American Hen Threatened.
On the Atlantic. as we'll as on the Pa
cific coast Mr.. Clark believes the SUI
premacy OF the American hen Ia being
fnenaeed. New York commission men In
form him that since the tariff has been
removed from esgs Now York. Boston
and all Atlantic coast cities are receiving
large quantities OF eggs from Russia, and
that on the markets there they are being
sold at about the same prices as are The
Chinese eggs in Pacific coast cities.
