Douglas county owes Health Com

for $3S0.75 with interest accrued. DR..
Cornell further claims S39l.2s for the

Street Carnival
Idle While Battle
RACES Before Judge

Will the South Side aerie Of Eagles
be allowed to stage its proposed
weeks carnival or be forced by prop
erty owners to change its pians1
That's the question being fought out
before Judge Leslie in district court.
For three long hours attorneys for
the carnival company, the Eagles, the
city and the complaining property
owners struggled with evidence.
Plaintiffs are asking the judge to
grant a restraining order preventing
the carnival company from staging
the show on streets ordered blocked
by the city commissioners, and fur
ther request that Mayor Dahlman and
other city representatives be cnjoined
from granting permits to any street
fair or carnival company In future
years.
dad" Weaver, secretary Of All
Sar-Ben, was called to the witness
stand in defense Of the carnival. e.

OF three animal shows, and Edward

Johnny J. Jones company, testified xs
to the good qualities Of the carnival
Photographs Of individual acts, side
shows and animals carried by the
company were introduced to prove
that the twenty-one carloads Of seem
cry and equipment are worth while.

Council Does Not
Favor HummePs
Paving Ordinance

The city council is not ready to ac-
cept Commissioner Hummeps new
ordinance for the regulation of paving
contracts, as being the most desirable
form OF remedial legislation.
The ordinance proposes to require
that contractors, when submitting
bids, shall offer a certified check
equal to 10 per cent Of the bid or not
less than 500, this money to be for
feited in cases where contractors do
not hold to their contracts with the
city.
Commissioner Butler, at a meeting
OF the city council committee of the
whole, raised the point whether this
requirement might not work in favor
Of the large contractors and against
the smaller concerns Further con-
sideration will be given the matter

Mayor Has Support
In His Campaign
Against Speeders

The city council committee Of the
whole supported Mayor Dahlman by
recommending for passage Tuesday
morning an ordinance which provides
that the police judge may impose a
sentence Of thirty days on violators of
the automobile speed laws. This
measure Is designed to reach reckless
drivers rather than for such minor
infractions as failure to dim lights.
The existing city law pertaining to
speeders provides for fine which the
mayor believes is not adequate to
curb the speed boys.

PRICES OF WHEAT
GO TUMBLING DOWN
Sharp Break Occurs in Cash
Market and Drop Of Five to
Eleven Cents Results.
CORN AND OATS FOLLOW

A sharp break in the Omaha grain
market sent cash wheat prices tur,-
bling down Monday.
Prices fell from S to II cents from
the close Of Saturday, and from 8 to
IL cents lower than the high prices
that day,
Omaha dealers attribute the break
to two causes. One is the failure of
President Wilson to settle the threat
ened strike of the railroad trainmen,
and the other is that Roumania has
entered the European war, joining
forces with the allies against Ger
many and Austria. Local dealers aver
that Roumania, having cast its lot
with the allies, shuts of more Of the
German wheat supply, and also, that
| it is wedge for the opening OF the
Dardanelles, thus affording an outlet
for two crops of wheat stored up in
Russia.
The Omaha market followed that
Of Chicago, and the opening had .
wide range, prices being anywhere
between S to cents under the close
of last Saturday. Cash sales were
the lightest in months. not more than
dozen Of the 28l carloads received
being sold. Sales that were made
were at $l.43 and $l.44h.
| During the session and after the ex-
element following the first break,
prices firmed up some on wheat, but
a bulletin came in announcing that
active fighting had commenced be-
tween the Germans and the Rounnan-
ians. This was the signal for another
decline and prices again slipped of,
the options closing at the low point OF
the day
4 The September option sold up -
high as $l.4s, closing at 81. So; Decent
Der sold UP to $l.48 and closed at
$i.40M, with May up to $l.s2, closing
at $l.44 per bushel.
The last decline in prices had little
effect upon the cash market, the sales
Of the day having been made prior to
| the break.
i Corn Also Drops.
| Corn, to some extent, felt the effects
of the break in wheat, but II only fell
l cent. 1t sold at 5000 cents. The
receipts were l0l carloads, but most
| of it was carried over on account OF
lack Of buyers.
] Oats were " cent to | cent of, SELF
ing at 1904 cents per bushel. The
receipts were ninety-four carloads.
Il While there were some losses
among the local grain men, there
were none that we're heavy. The few
who were carrying long lines of wheat
had protected themselves by selling
the December and May options. and
as a result, what they lost on the
actual grain carried, they made up on
their futures. Again most of the
local dealers felt. that wheat was high
enough last week and when II got
up around $l.56 and $l.sS they began
to sell.
Look for Future Decline.
. If the railroad wage matter is not
, settled, local dealers assert there
will be another drop in prices, but
! they insist that It cannot continue
any great length OF time. as Europe
will need the wheat and some method
, Of getting Il abroad will be figured
. OUT.
