Charges Sheriff Clark Failed
in Duty-Promised Army
Officers to Pay All
&C.. Bills.

Mayor Smith, in the city council
chamber yesterday, again expressed
his opinion that Sheriff Clark failed
to exercise his authority at the time
OF the court house riot, because spe-
cial deputy sheriffs were not pressed

These remarks were uttered in
connection with claims which are
being considered by a special COM
mittee of the city council, the bills
being for housing, feeding and auto
mobile service for soldiers on riot
duty. The total for this service is
$1,000.
Sheriff Clark stated yesterday that
if the public and taxpayers of Omaha
will accept the mayors apology as
he gives it, 1t would satisfy him.
The mayor and Commissioner
IRE contended that the county
should pay at least half Of this ex-
pense, because the situation involv-
ed county building. Commissioner
Zimman held that the city should
have protected the county building
the same as any other building un-
der like circumstances.
During the early morning follow
ing the night Of the riot Mr.. IRE,
then acting mayor, and Police Com
missioner Ringer, told Col. J. E.
Morris and Col. Jacob w. S. Wuest
of Fort Omaha to incur any ex-
pense necessary and the city would
see that the money was paid.
The council decided to hold the
matter in allegiance until its special
committee shall have gone over all
the claims and made a report.
