- i i i 6 COUNCIL BLUFFS. A Very Lively Time There Yesterday. Spent Oouncil Concludes to Reduce the Mayoi's Salary. Large Number of Serious Ac- cidents Recorded. ©Othor Matters of More or Less Im* portance. A BRISK MEETING COUNCIL DECIDES TO REDUCE THE MAYOR'S SALARY, Dur city fathers met at Keller's furniture store at an early hour Wed- nesday evening to take into considera tion what they should do to punish the mayor. After deciding that Al- derman Keller should introduce a bill stripping the purchasing power from his honor, and reducing his sal- ary to $300, they adjourned to meet at the city building. When they filed in Nate Phellips, second lieuten- ant and the mayor with his coat off were in their seats ready to receive them. ‘“‘Good evening Mr. Keller, how is the park progress- ing?”" was the nayor's salu- tation. Keller drooped a little and replied it was quite close in the room and that window had petter be opened. At this moment Mr, Holmes rushed inandstated that the democratic candidate for governor was waiting for him down at the Paaific house, and he wanted to say what he had to say and leave. The mayor stated that the city attorney's wishes should be complied with and he could proceed. Mr. Holmes said that the lots on Union avenue had all been purchased by the city on the basis of 8700, the amount paid John Clausen, “As tor the petition of James Brewster, W. O, James, and others, to ‘abandon the present city charter, he did not think it advisable at present, It would en- tail upon this city useless clections, and at a time when lakoring men were busy and would not have a chance to express themselves at the polls. Alderman Churchill, to whom the citizens' petition was referred, #aid that he was not ready to report and did not intend to do so. He did not believe that any of the petitioners would kick if we sailed awhile longer with our present captain and crew. Mr, Vaughan took down the law and read it to the coun- cil. He had never read the section of the code which provides, ‘‘That upon the petition of fifty legal voters requesting that the question of aband- oning our city charter be submitted to the people the council shall immediate- ly direct a special election to be held, at which time such questions shall be decided.” The mayor thought it was his duty to at once issue a proclamation and have the question submitted. But the law says that the council must di- rect it to be done, then themayor shall issue his proclamation After quite a debate it was decided to wait and hear what Mr. Churclull has to say next Saturday evening. After a few minor matters were pre- * sented and disposed of, 8. 8. Keller arose and drew from his pocket an ap- parently harmless weapon. He sol- emnly turned it towards Nate Phillips, who simply waved his hand requested that if !.Ko thing was loaded to point it some other way. We ex\wclud to see the mayor dodge under the table, but he wasn't frightened a particle. Mr, Keller smd in a broken voice: ‘It is with no slight de- * gree of embarrassment that 1 rise to addrvess you, The mayor of this <ity has always been on friendl terms with me until the people of this city called us here to protect their rights. 1 believe that a dollar saved is as good as a dollar earned, We have already imposed a tax of about G per cent. on the g:uplu of Council Bluffs, They are beginning to feel that they had rather starve to death on land in Kansas than be over- whelmed here in this city with taxation Our mayor has been in the habit of getting ‘budge’ by purchasing the materials that are required by the several committees. 1 believe that this commission could and should be saved, and now offer a resolution that the power of making purchases for the city be taken from te mayor and conferred on the chair- men of the different committees, who shall not be allowed to charge for their services.” Mr, Vaughan arose and said: ‘‘Gentlemen, before you take from me this privilege 1 desire to say a few words, 1 believe in cconomy as sincerely as Alderman Keller who proposes to reduce the compensation of the mayor of this city to 8300, He thought that while the council were in the humor they had better pass a resolution that from that hour no member of the city gov- ernment should be allowed any com- msation whatever, They wanted im to attend to the duties of mayor of this city for $300 and rent and to furnish his own office. The city of Omaha that does not make half the pretensions that we do }ny_their mayor £1,000 per year and urnish him a first class oftice.” Mayor Vaughan did not see why it Was oW pro| to rob him, May very other mayor since ty had done the pur- chasing. To be sure there was no very large bank account derived from this source, but he believed that it put him in an a position to save the citya good many dollars. Not long ago he made @ purchase of & map out in the coun- try who had a quarry. He met him and he said he was mayor of Council Blufls, and by virtue of the office he was compelled to do the purchasing for the city, and asked how much per he “would take for his stone. ‘l’olcll."’r,uid “';ke uuu:i, u‘l‘whll do mean?’ ‘¢ ,” said the mayor, ?"i“ how mu{lx do H ou want in measure!” “Well, 1 do de- clare,” said the seller, ‘‘blamed if I know how wuch & perch is.” The mayor said ‘“‘suppose we call it |25 teetr The mayor the anecdote, contintied slucidating A poreh is ‘mkcn from me.” | the man from whom the same was purchased the full measure. subsided the After the mayor question on the original mo- tion was taken up and Mr. Keller's resolution carried, with Alderman Phillips diesenting. Mr. Vaughan ]‘ruaentml a_communication from | Thomas L. Kimball, whichin sub- | stance read as follows: 1 have ftlly investigated the matter of hacks calling for passengers at the Union Pacific depot, and find that Mr. Starr is not an_employe of this company but of Messrs, Markel & Swobe. I find that Mr. Starr did nothing wrong but was merely assist- ing depot policemen in_ ecartying out therulesof thecompany. Mr. Boyd was was on the depot platform and in the waiting reoms soliciting passengers. Mr. Starr told him it was agamnst the rules and he must not do it, and re- ported matters to Depot Policeman TcMullen, who corroborates Mr, Starr’s statement. Had Mr. Boyd re- mained in the proper place for hacks this complaint would not have been made, The mayor informed the ecouncil that he had written to Mr. Kimball to please designate what portion of the U. P. platform was devoted to landing and receiving passengers by hackmen, Alderman Fonda stated that he had thoroughly investigated the charge. Mr. Boyd had disobeyed the rules to such an extent as to merit all the abuse if any that he received. Mr. Vaughan also had read a communica- tion from Mr Chapman who has been treating this city to an opera house. He says that he will be in this city in a few days and wll glad to meet all citizens inter- N. M. Pus- ested in an opera house. ey and Dr, hlc(}une presenteda verbal petition to the council asking that they cause to be appointed fifteen extra policemen to serve at the fair grounds during the comingraces. Mr. Vaughan asked if Spencer Smith, Horace Ever- ett or Thomas Metcalf were present and ready to report on the Bluffs street grade. Mr, Smith stated that he met the other’ members of the committee, and they had come to a decision, but it had not been reduced to writing. He wanted to know if the council intended to adopt the report of the citizens’ committee when made. Mr. Dawson said they should if it suited the coun- cil. Mr. Smith could see no sense in this way of doing busmness. He recognized the respect due to the present city government, but he could not see any reason in asking the citi- z2n8 to settle a grade dispute if it was subject to a review by the city coun- cil. It was decided by the council to take no further action in the premi- scs until the citizens’ committee re- ported. After transacting other un- important matters the council ad- journed to meet next Saturday night. AN EXPLANATION IN REGARD TO THAT MISSING LETTER. Two articles appeared in The Non- pareil and Globe in regard to the let- ter left by the German suicide. The first article says that the letter was given to THE BEe with the promise that it should be returned. The Globe article says ‘‘the letter was given to Tue Bee with the solemn promise that it should be returned.” The facts of the case are that after the coroner’s inquest Tne BEE re- porter secured theletter from Mr, Faul, We asked him if he wanted it re- turned, He replied that he did not know as there was any need of it as there was no name signed to it. At the same time they had better pre- serve it in case it should be inquired for, We sent the letter to Omaha and wrote Tie BEk office in regard to pre- serving the same. However this letter in some way got misplaced and they never received it. Ina week or so Mr. Faul said there was a German woman down at St. Joe who had writ- ten asking about the man who had committed suicide. She stated that her husband left home about one year 0 saying he was going to kill himself, e world had done him wrong but he had not done wrong by the world. If her statement is true she need only inquire of Mo the undertaker and he will inform her where the remains of her husband are, There are half a dozen citizens here who examined the handwriting carefully, and could tell at sight whether any writing produced corresponds with that found on the rson of the suicide. The same may ¢ said to the young man who has been here hunting for his father. It certainly looks queer that a young man should be around huntiny for is father and refuse to make known his name, Had Tue Bee at Omaha roceived the letter sent from here it would have been preserved. They are doing all they can to find it, The trouble all came from their failing to get our letter. We can only say that we are sorry that the coroner ever let & document of so much pretended value go from under his control, ACCIDENTS. THE UNUSUAL NUMBER OF THEM THAT OUCURRED YESTERDAY, A series of accidonts occurred in, this city yesterday during the parade of the circus, A team belonging to a man from Neola named Mike Mena- han took fright and made » sudden turn, upsetting the wagon, Mr. Mena- han, wife and daughter. My, Mena- han and his wife both received very severe injuries The little girl es- caped unhurt. The accident oc- curred at the corner of Broadway and Bancroft streets. The wagon was considerably smashed. My, Menahan was carried into Sullivan & Fitager ald’s grocery store, where everything possible was'done for him. A little girl named Mamic Caruthers daugh- ter of Mrs. Caruthers, who resides on north Twenty-fiith street was run over and trawmpled on by Menahan's team. She was standing on Bancroft strect when the team took fright and knocked her down, She was taken to the boarding house kept by the 16 feet, and I got 25 feet, and for this | she had sustained injuries that mig act alone this power should not be | prove fatal, |on her 1t may be rematked that section | | 2050 of the code defines a perch of |and rupturing the ligaments that hold stone as measuring 25 cubic feet, and [it in | we recommend to the city council to |shoulder have the stone measured and allow | injuries, be [out on the K.

A man named Harper was knocked down by a runaway team yesterday and had his shoulder dislocated. Dr. Pinney was called to attend him, A team belonging to Beck Dros and in charge of their driver Ben Ritter was run into by a countryman’s team on Broadway, in front of Atking’ drug store. Mr. Ritter was thrown from the seat and stunned, and the wagon pretty badly used up. A very large man drove a very large lorse down Broadway at a breakneck pace yesterday. The har- ness broke and t{lfl thills were sticking over the horse's back on either side. Whether he was drunk or whether he really couldn't control the animal we did not learn, THE BLUFFS IN BRIEF. There was a_smash-up out on the Wednesday night about 11 o’clock, which resulted in demolishing a car-load of beer. All the beer was not spilled on the ground, judging from the condition of acnr-]’oad of men that came into Council Bluffs about midnight. A pipe carried in his pocket by Mr, Noble, proprietor of Noble's hotel on North street, yesterday saved that gentleman the loss of $100, A pick- pocket struck for the pocketbook with his knife and the blade no doubt struck the pipe and prevented it cut- ting the pocket out. Mr, Noble felt sometning and grasping his pocket found a slit in his pantaloon leg about eight inches in_length directly over the pocket. His pocketbook was in front and his pipe behind it. The committee to whom was re- ferred the matter of appointment by Chief Field of two extra ‘policemen at Yonkerman's park during the fire- men’s picnic on the 17th reported that they were not legally appointed but recommended that they receive $3 cach for services rendered. One of the circus horses left the procession in front of the Pacific House and rushed through the crowd toward the bar rvom. He was se- cured by an aticadant before he had time to do any damage. There is a large and dangerous hole in the culvert on the Lake road in the vicinity of Roger's brick yard that should be attended to at once before any accident happens. Mrs Martin gets 1,500 for her lots on Union avenue. The New York Pullman sleeping car belonging to Forepaugh's train, standing on the side track at the Rock Island depot, cuuyhire yester- day at 4 o'clock from a pasSing engine and was entirely consumed. There were no teams put up in Judge James’ yard, but quite a num- ber took advantage of Hon. W. H. M. Pusey's absence and hitched in front of his residence. Judge McKenne, democratic candi- date for governor of this state, spoke toa large and intelligent audience from the Pacific house steps last even- ing The judge is a very tine talker, 18 of splendid physique, a free trade advocate, and if elected will make a fine looking executive, The circuit court adjourned to at- tend the circus at half past one, It will convene agaiu this morning at ¢ o'clock.

I was myself chained in this way for 800 miles to an ugly brute, who dragged on my chain by day and often fought for the best place with me when we rested, from whom I was never free, and who sickened me by near contact to his filthy person and vermin-stocked clothing. It was like being chained to @ votting corpse. It was more Lorrible than T can tell you. Again I was given charge of a woman whose strength was fast giving out, and who was failing to keep up with the gang, which was fast floundering: through the snow-storm which had been threatening all day, and which had overtaken us between stations.

Almost all these gangs con- centrate at hazan, and in the country about Kazan ‘etaps’ are particularly numerous, and are, from here on, more revoltingly kept than on the early part of the journey. The etap is a large brick or wooden building, surrounded with high walls, and in- tended cnly as a sort of human cattle shed for use over night, and, therefore it is provided with no comfort or even ities, Those etaps are scattered and are as prominently seen in every landscape as are village schools and villageé steoglcu through your own New England States, And as in America the frequency of this feature in the land is a badge of the education and civilization of the people, so the Russian etap is a' dis- tinguishing badge of the ever-pres- ent Russian system of oppressing the people.
