CITY ATTORNEYS
AND WEBSTER MIX
Attorneys for Omaha Allege Street
Car Company Does Not Comply
with Court Order.
SEARS CONSIDERS THE MATTER

A spirited argument was precipi-
tated before District Judge Sears,
when City Attorneys Rine and Lam
bert and Attorney ]. L. Webster. for
the street railway company, went to
the mat on the issue whether the
company had evaded an order of the
court providing for a statement OF
physical valuation Of its property in
the acknowledgements injunc-
ton suit.
The company's statement as made
to the court contained various fig
ures and totals which applied to its
entire lines in Omaha, Council Bluffs,
South Omaha and suburbs.
The statement, Mr.. Rine declared. was
IAN evasion because, he said. the order
manifestly required a statement Of ply
steal valuation in Omaha, alone, where
the seven-fares-for-a-quar IL appIica-
BILE Tho statement, a. made. he de-
clered. was useless TO the court.
They say they do not know the valuA-
tion in the city Of Omaha" observed Mr..
Rlne. but the petition alleges the rate
fixed by the ordinance would not allow
proper return on the capital invested. &"
Somewhere among the statements made
by the street railway company, Mr.. Rine
then deduced. was at least one which
was ''mendaclous."
want order Changed.
Attorney Webster then came back with
the argument that the statemnt Of physi-
cal valuation, as furnished to the court,
was exactly what the courts order re-
qdired and what the city attorneys had
asked for.
Tho city attorneys now ask thu
something be interpolated into the order
which they did not ask in their motion
and which the court did not put IN the
order" declared Mr., Webster. They
are now estopped from reopening the
issue and seeking for additional informa-
ton"
1t Is conceded on all hands that the
information 30 far furnished by the
street railway company has not been
such as would clear up the seven-fares-
for-a-quarter insue.
Judge Sears took under advisement the
motion OF the city that the company be
required to make it's statement more
specific and certain"
