Inquiry of Auditor Burke leads to the finding out that Alderman James is the only one of the city council who has yet got his back pay. The others apparently are awaiting developments before taking the cash they have voted themselves, Phillip Edwards, or Edward Phillips, was arrested Sunday night. on the ch of as e showed that the girl a little too full, and got fooling around him, when he pushed her and she tumbled over. He was fr raders tented . They are said to get altogether big trades out of farmers who are returning from the city, a little full, perhaps, are induced to speculate. The police are going to warn them to break camp and move on, The women have started war on Mike Nolan, who keeps a saloon on Broadway. They claim he is letting their boys play pool there aud gamble, by betting on the Two complaints are filed in Justico Abbott’s court, one by Sarah Benson and another by Mary Hoyt. R. Richardson was tried yesterday in the superior court for disturbing the l:cnc(-,. The evidence showed that he had a little trouble with old man Bowles, the latter having nailed up the door of o room which Richardson claimed o have rented. Bichardson tried to kick the door open and Bowles had him arrested, Discharged. One of the prisoners in the calaboose yesterday managed to kick a hole in the floor, and crawl down into the cellar, He expected to get out by the front basement door, bu found that it was locked. Heo could no# get back either from where he came, and after staying there long enough to punish him, he was glad enough to be transferred by the officers from the dark cellar hole to the filthy rooms above. Col. D. E. Fisher, of Atlantic, uncle of E. D. F. Fisher, of this.city, and who re- cently was here on a visit, was one of the boarders at the Kimball house in Atlan- tic, which burned Saturday. Anxicty ing him was, however, allayed by the receipt of a telogram saying that he was all right, a fact which the many ac- quaintances he formed here will be glad to hear, George Brossfield has caused th of L. W. Carlisle on the harge of having got a $100 note out of him by the false pretense of owning a corn erop in Bloomer township, when he had already mort- gaged the crop to A. Laverburg for all it was worth, Carlisle was arrested and the case will probably be heard by Justice Abbott to-day unless it is settled before it reaches a hearing, = Senator Allison was in the city, having spent Sunduy here, when the terriblo news came of his wife's death, She had been in poor health for some time, but on Sunday he received a telegram stating sho was better. Yestorday morning the news of her self-drowning came to him. He had not time to reach the outgoins Milwaukee and St. Paul train had it pulled out on time, but the officials of the road held the train until he reached it. Arrangements were made for a spo- cial to meet him at Earling and take him to his home in Dubuque. Business is unusually quiet at the stock yards for this time of the year, not be- cause Cauncil Bluffs is losing its prestige, but because there is little stock fit for shipping., Cattle should have a month more grass, and it may be so late then that they cannot move all the stock. It is also probable that there will only be the top stock or the best shipped, and the rest held over. Some predict that the rush will come soon, and then it will be a rush indeed; but it may not come as heavy, for the reasons stated. As it is, there is now about a train a day being handled here, Yesterday the police received tele- gnphic instructions from City Marshal mith, of Dés Moines, to arrest a young man on the morning train, Ofiicers Cus. sick and Brooks watched the coming of the train, picked upon the right man and waltzed him up to the police station. The telegram did not say what he was wanted for, but the young man, who gave his name as R. W, Randley, claimed that all there was to it, he had jumped u week's He could not pay it and had money enough to get out of town. He could find nothing to do in Des Moines. had only about threedollars with him when arrestee. Under the present mode of handling the houses of prostitution, the landladies are required to step to the front every month and pay a fine for themselves and for their girls, Some of the keepers Yhave a way of gotting rid of their girls, or most of them, just before the time comes to pay up, thus reducing the awmount of fines. Notice has now been will have a tendency, it is thought, to make them tell the truth as to the num ber of inmates at all times, and they can Do called up to pay fines while the house is full, Some friend of Offi a voice in another cclumn, but not pretend to deny the charge made against Warner, and for which he was suspended, nor has there yet been any one who came to the front with a denial to the charges stated in Tur Bee. War ner is not the first officer who has been suspended for a like offense, and hence is no special target, Suspensions, howeyer, have not seemed to stop theso occasional froaks altogether, and if any change is to be made, it should be for more severe punishment in such cases. Suspension may do until charges are investigated but if proven the offenders should be| laid off entirely, and their places filled by men not given to such freaks. If War- ner's friends have pro is intimated, that other officers arc ing drunk, or are gambling, they should bring for their proof, and insist on having th force weeded out. It is high time th public got rid of such policemen if it ha them. or Warner is given he does — J. W.

Yes- terday Jim Wilson pleaded guilty to the charge and paid his fine and costs, amounting to $54.10. The court might have thrown off the dime but it didn't. John N one information in place of Ben Marks, who it appears is not running the place North pleaded guilty $64.10. As the places in the city ¢ running right along it will soon bo eviy dent whether the officials intend filing information daily, weekly or monthly. The question whether the houses will be allowed to run by paying a fine, or what is practically a license, at stated inter- vals, will soon be solved. 1t is understood thatsome of those who have not yet puid fine:, propose fighting the charge. There has alwavs been a doubt as to whether the city had the right to fin mblers or not. ~ The city attorney in drawing the ordinas to avoid all ‘doubt, cherous ground, doubt as to whether he has suc doing 80, and this question may be f int« wet. 1f it shall be decided against the city, then the only recourse would be under the state law, and there would be much greater delay in getting cases to trial, An information was filed yestor against Dan Carrigg, the well known 1 ident of Atlantic, who it is claimed is running a game, or owns a house here. —— The gambling questi remains unsolved, but every day h's name was substituted in and also paid ceeded in d For the “‘stylishest” suit of clothes in town and tho best selection to choose from call and examine the stock of Nu- gent & Smith, merchant tailors, 7 and 9 Main streot. — What About Warner? To the Editor of the Brk. Warner is suspended. For what? Ts he the only policeman on the force that gots drunk? Does Waner gamble? Are there any on the whoie force that gam- ble?

If Warner is a good officey, why suspend or oust him fora few political office scekers! Does the public know the colored man who ro- ported him, his character and his reputa tion?

The Pow Street T A grave doubt for the desciples of Blac has kstone to settle. A marked change 1 made here within the past year in regard to the filling of streets. In ne by the expenses of such filling s been borne by the city, as a whole w it is charged up to the abutting property. The question has often been asked whether the city has the power to thus assess it or not, and that doubt still Attention is called to the following section, 465, of the code of 1873: SN exists in the minds of many. hall have power to provide ading and repairs of any streets, or alle; onstruction of the expenses of the same out of the general funds of such city or town; but no street shall be grad ed except the same be ordered to be done by theaflirmative vote of two-thirds of the city council or trustees,” That part of the abeve scction as re- lates to alleys was repealed by section b, | chapter 51, Fifteenth which provides that the g shall be paid for by the abutting proper. ty owners, By this section it is claimed that these improvements must be paid for out of the general fund, and this is what calls out the question as to how the city can charge it up to abutting property. ~In case of paving, curbing, etc., the city apparently has the right. . ction 466 of the code providing “They shall have power to construct swalks, to curb, pave, gravel, macada- and’ gutter any highway or alley therein, and to levy a special tax on the lots and parcels of land fronting en such highway or alley to pay the e> such improvement. But unless a major ty of the ident owners of the property subject to assessment for improvements petition the council or trustees to make the same, such improvements shall not be made until three-fourths of all the members of such council or trustees shall by vote assent to the making of the same.” It is claimed that the ten mills which the city is limited for general and incidental expenses is not enough to allow the city to make many improve wments out of the general fund, and this is doubtless 8o, when property is assessed at only forty per cent of its worth. But if there is any doubt as to the right of the city to assess as at present the au- thorities had better be sure and do away with the doubt before getting involved in leg the objecting property owners coming off’ victorious, Numerous authorities toshow that the city a8 it is doing now, but it isc the ofther hand that these authorities fer to questions of macadamizing, curb- ing or paving, and do not apply to mere i streets, unless it is intended to e at once and the filling is made a part of the paving improvement. Of course many of the strects now be tilled will not be paved for years, if ever. — PERSONALS, W. 8. Lowis, of Maly yesterday, n, was in tho city D. H. Solomon was in the city yesterday.
