[t Canses & Good Deal of Talk and Mach Dodging, Fresh Documents In its Support, No Declsion Rendered, A meeting of the city council was held yestorday, the speclal order of bnsiness being the consideratlon of the mayors bill for services In selling paving bonds, All the aldermen were present except Ald. James, Ald. Keating objected to acting upon It without there being a full board present, 8o none shalljdodge the re- sponsibility of a vote opon it. It was suggested that Ald. James was sick. The marshall was gent to get him 1t possible, and in the meantime the council took up general business. The complaint nbout dangerons sidewalks on Oakland avenue was referred for in- vestigation, » Ald Mynster thought the the] street supervisor should look up dangerous places, ond see that wero rendered tem- 317 Broadway.

F., and returned home yes- terday, The *‘Lights o' London” was again greetad last night by a large and {appreci- ative audlence. Collier and Shook have won an excellent reputation by their manner of placing good plays upon the stage. Public installation ceremonies of the 1.0. O. F, hall, which were to have been held this evening, are postponed until Tuesday next out of respect to the memory of George Doughty, an old mem- ber, whoee death has been chronicled by Tue Bee. His funeral will be condacted by the order this afternoon. In the district court yesterday the trial of Cuff Johnson for the murder of Mc Gonigle was drawing to a close. All the evidence was put In and the arguments were made, Mr. Jacob Sims opening with a streng, clear argument for the state, followed by Col. Lindt and Col. Daily for the defense, ieaving the clos- ing argument for the state to Mr. Thornell. TrE BEE regrets to learn that Mr. Kinnehan lies in a critical condition. He was Injured at the transfer a few days ago, as reported, and anjamputation of his toes was made necessary. Gan- grene has now attacked the wound, and another amputation must needs be per- formed. Mr. Kinnohan is a worthy cit- izen, and quite prominent in the labor reform movement. The county board spent most of yes- terday talking about a new court house. 1t seemed to be the unanimous opinion that there should be some definite plans asto the kind of a buildlng and the probable cost presented to the people before a special election was had, so that all might vote intelligently, It was de- clded to advertise for plans and estimates, to be presented to the board on the eec- ond day of February. Between three and four o’clock Sun- day afternoon, a Mr. Blies who lives in the extreme south part of the county, had a team, harness and wagon stolen. The gentleman and family were away from home at the time, attending church or visiting at a neighbor's, It was learned that the thief or thieves went east with the team, but up to this writ- ing (Tuesday) nothing farther had been heard of them,—Malvern Leader. The churches in the city are generally observing the world’s week of prayer. Meetings will be continued at the Broad- way M. E. church this evening and to- L. porary safe. The officlals were accord- ingly inatructed to that effect by resolu- tion, Ald. Siedertopf moved that the ordi- nance creating the office of city jailor be referred back to the city attorney, with instructions to make a new ordinance creating the providing for one day jailor and one night jailor. Carried. The ordinances creating *‘public places” on Broadway, s> that the wide places in the street could be paved by the city, in- stoad of abutting preperty, was called up and passed. The city marshal on returning reported that Ald, James was very ill at home, and had been unable to be out since Sun- day last. The city engineer was instructed to make a new cstimate of the paving at the places on Broadway affected by the “‘public place” ordinance. The city attorney was fnstructed to prepare an ordinance for the issuance of more intersection paving bonds. The question of the mayor's bill was then called up egain. Ald. Keating wanted it put off until Ald, James could be present. Citizens had threatened to make the aldermen pay personally the bill, if allowed by the councll. He | heavy tax-payers thonght the claim was right, they ought to glve the aldermen some indemnifying bond to protect alder- men from any personal suits, The mayor claimed that he had sold the intersection paving bonds at better figures than the committee sold the sew- erage bonds, Thls woke up Ald. Seiden. toff, and he and the mayor had a lively tilt, and after the storm subsided, Ala. (Fotee naid he preforred to wait until there was a fuil board. Tho mayor said he hoped it would not come up again, He said he was sick of the whole affalr, @Ald. Mynster suggeated that all the facts and papers be ref&red to some dis- interested attorney outside of the city, and let his opinfon be the guidance of the law in the matter. He moved that it be referred to Mr. Rogers, if his opin- fon wonld not cost more than $§200. Ald. (ioise seconded it, but then withdrew the second, Ald. Mynater then presented the reso- lution, read at a previous mesting, re- fasing to allow the bill, and urging the n:nyur to test the logality by sueing the oity. Ald, Siendtopf said it was ridiculous for the coungil to invite a suit against the city, and was against their oaths of office. Alds, Keating and Geise, though hav- ing slgned documenta recommending the allowance of the bill, seemed to show tha white foather, and were turned about voting for it, in view of the sults. Ald, Siendtopf with commendable consistency stock to it, that while he thought the bill was a just one, yet he dld not think it could be legally allowed. He said if the had signed the report favoring the allow- ance he should vote for it. This wasa side rap at Alds. Geise and Mynster. Theso two, however, still wanted to wait until all the aldermen were present, and a motlon for adjournment was carrled, leaving the bill still undecided. HOME OF THE FRIENDLESS. COharges of Financial Mismagement Rather than Cruelty or Neglect, There have been many rumors afloat ot late in regard to the Home of the Friend- less.

Vaveuax, Mayor, Coun- cil Bluffs, Iowa.—Dear Sir: Iam in re. ceipt of a copy of the Nonpareil contain- ing certain communications, and a copy of the proceedings of the city council in reference to your recent services in ne- gotiating the bonds of the olty. I beg to state to you, and through you to the council, that I am pereonally cognizant of the patient and zealous efforts mado by youin New York and elsewhere in the matter of the sale of these bonds. 1 have no doubt that the success is largely owing to your service. Under the circumstances thess bonds could not have been negotiated wholly by correspondence and it was necessary for some one to come in per- son to the east. Assuming that you were authorized and requested by the clty council to take upon yoursalf a work thus wholly outside of your office for the enefit of the city there can be no legal objections in my judgment to the city council's making you for such extra labor a reasonable compensation. Very truly yours, Jno. F. DiLLoN, GEN. DODGE CONCURS, 1 agree with what Judge Dillon says. I don’t think anyone can appreclate the work necessary to negotiats securities at that time unless they had the experience as I have had. G. M. DopGE, January 8, 1885. The following petition was also pre- sented in addition to the others already printed: CouxcrL BLurrs, lowa, Dec. 22, 1884, To the honorable council of the city of Councll Bluffs, Iowa:—Gentlemen: We, the undersigned, taxpsyers of Council Bluffs, Iowa, do hereby petitlon your honorable body to pay Mayor W. R. Vaughan for his two months’ services and skill in selling over $175,000.00 of our aving bonds, when our bankers and or the safest. It has seemed to many that the enterprise was being spread over zo much ground that it must become very thin in spots. Together with the home, there has been started an industaial school, an academy, a kinder— garten, a printing office and newspaper, ete. Financlal reports have [ been pub- lished from time to time, and it appears that there is not enough of an income to sapport such aa institution with g0 many varled departments and such a corps of officers. It seems that if the institution was confined to Its original purpose, and run economlically and wisely, the public would not have confidence in it, but would contrlbute liberally to its support. Itis to be hoped that the affairs of the Institution will be cleared up, and the insfitution in its simplicity 2o on doing the noble work originally in- tonded by 1ts establishment. ——e——— For sale—My book and staaionery bus- 341 Broadway.

No relatives could be found at the time, but yesterday the mayor received a letter from a son of Downey, living in Dablin, The son It appears, is one-armed, and ls in.rather poverty-stricken condition, and desired to get whatever property his father left, 1t was supposed that Dow- ney had about $400 in his pocket when killed, but only a small amount was found, together with a fow pieces of eilk, Rev.

Brodibeck, James Maddern, 1. Brownald and many others, Ald. Mynster moved that the council allow the mayor the amount reported by the committee—§1,400, Ald. MoMahon seconded it. Mr. John Short, as a taxpayer, by per- mission of the council, epoke against the allowance of the bill, He did not think that Judge Dillon or Gen, Dodge had anything to do with the taxes of Councll Bluffs. The mayor's salary was all he coald ask. By request of Ald. Geiso who was abscat at the previous meeting, Mr, N, W. Pusey restated briefly the legal ob. jections which he thought exlsted against the allowance of the bill. He insisted tHat Judge Dillon’s opinion was the same as his, Lf Mr, Vaughan performed duties wholly outside of his office of mayor he was entitled to addltional pay, but Mr, Pasey claimed that Mr., Vaughan was acting in this matter as mayor, and was entitled therefore only to the regular salary. Thecounc'l instructed ‘‘:he may- or of theecity” to go east. If the council had employed W. R. Vaughan to go east, it would have been different. He eaid that the legality cf the claim could be testod by the mayor sueing the city, or the sldermen could vote for the claim. Mr. Pusey gave notlco that if the aldex- d to themen did allow the bill, each would be | 15@18e, sued personally for the amount, and thus the legality would be tested.

Smith,” A search warrant was issusd by the mayor and placed in the hands of Constable Donner for service. He proceeded to search Smith’s promises and found a sled-load of “B-B” and a quantity of whisky. Notice have been posted and the proper steps are be- ing taken to condemn the liquors, The state 1s represented by Lewis & Young and the defense by L. T.
