Orders can be left ut /ol’s or at the postofli gements are being made to let » contract for the Broadway wagon bridge by the 20th of April, and the dirt will commence flying by the 1st of May. This will be a quick start for so large an enterprise. The stock of the Manawa ralway is being rapidly taken and there seems n doubt now but that the enterprise will soon commence, and be pushed to a speedy compietion, The old lady yesterday acknowledged the receipt of a bottle of mineral water and was so exhilarated by it that she d yesterday to get up all of four s of um}u aphic news. The old lady is getting frisky. Robert Huntington now wea the handsomest gold headed canes in the city. It is the gift of his wife,whose wish is joined in by many friends, that the cane may wear for years, and that he may live to wear it out. ¢ There is a moveon foot to secure the appointment of a gas inspector. Council Blufts submits more good naturedly to a big price for'cheap gas than any city in the country. It seems that some sort of a move should be made to secure better light at less cost. City Poll Tax Collector Beckman will soon begin his rounds. Last year he athered 1n_more than any previous col- ector, and this year he promises to by even that record. Those liable might as well come down gracefully and at once. The council having decided on a grade for lower Broadway, the permanent im- provements of filling, parking, curbing and paving will proceed as rapidly as possible. With Broadway paved clear tothe new wagon bridge at the river, this will be a great thoroughfare, Judge Thornell is expected to be here Saturday, but he will probably take no steps in the saloon injunction cases. The decision of questions already submitted %0 the supreme court will probably be waited for, as a guide to his rulings in similar questions arising here. The Stuart dramatic company is drawing light houses. With a ehange of programme every evening and with pop- ular prices, it seems that the company shonld have large audiences, ‘The com: pany is of light weight, but of much more merit than most of the companies who vlay for the low prices. “‘Who said Council Bluffs tacy & Co., No. 9 Main, for {{ s a one of dull®” TEa about s not having sidewalks.

Fifth street will get its sewer this season, Mynster stweet from Main toEighth street will be paved and parked, together with the cross streets to Broadway. Glen avenue will be paved from Broadway to the reservoir,andWash- ington avenue from First to Second street. Fourth street is also preparing for paving this season. The city 15 wide awake this year sure. ‘The city marshal has been instructed to have the property owners clear up the alleys without delay. In case of a fail- wre so to do he is to getthe alleys cleaned and the costs taxed up. There should be no delay in this matter. The city should also inaugurate a system of garbage and ash collections, so that proverty owners could arrange places of deposit for such matter and haye them cleaned out at stated intervals by teams employed con- stantly for that purpose.

A Practical Test to Be Made Between ©ouncil Bluffs and Burlington, POLICE COURT DOINGS Several Worthy Young Democrats Get a Job Weighing Mails—Numerous Building Improyements— Just a Scorch, Testing Freight Car Couplers. An important and interesting test of freight car couplers is to be made on the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road next day. One of the intricate problems of railway service is that of the slack on freight ear couplers, It is a subject about which there has been much speculation and many of the prominent railway men of the country have reached the conclusion that the nee for the slack or looseness is all imagin Present Adams,of the Union Pacifie, a few years ago announced it as his opiniou that a treight engine can pull out as heavy a train without a slack as with 1t. Now the Chicago, Burling. ton Quincy company is to make a practical test upon the matter Next Monday a freight train will start from Burlington with as many cars tite engine can pull, the cars being fu nished with couplers that (it tight like those on passenger trains and do not allow the variation 1 distance betwe Commissioner Coflin, on account of his study of this i vited to accompar a thorough test, train goes the day to Creston and the second to Council Blufts, and then a train under exactly the same circumstances, except with the couplers now in use, will be run over the road and comparisons be made. It will prove an important test The Pol ckings, “What is your business, Mr. hera?’ “I'm a farmer, your honor, and no va- grant—not a bit of it.”” “Whereis your farm*" *'Oh, I've got no farm of my own, 1 just work for other folks, “Where do you work, then?” “Well, your honor, I'm not to work anywhere just now.” “Well, where did you work last?” “For a man named Jones, in western New York.” “When did you quit Mr. Jones' em- ploy#” In December, just before Christmas. ristmas last yeary’ t was in December, 1884, Shep- No; T haven't been able to find any work.”’ feel sorry for you, and f o work for a whil ou, your honor. youcan work on the streets for and you can have all the bread and water you want three times a day.” The m of gratitude vanished. The two young men, Roper and Peter- son, who travel a8 u paur, ¢ lice much trouble, have just beel leased from jail, where they were held for having been enticing some giddy girls away from their homes. The boys seem to be still in trouble, howeve Ro- per was arrested for being drunk, for disturbing the peace, and for using pro- fance language in public places. He in- sisted that he could prove that the poli had made a mistake, and the case was laid over until to-day. A short time ago Judge Aylesworth sentto one af the reformatory institu- tions of the state a girl of only sixteun, whose parents could not keep her under control. Now comes a letter from the girl urginf Peterson to make some pro- vision for her, and to share with her the trouble into which she finds herself plunged from associating with him. He denies that he is responsible for her con- dition, but he has been muaking such a reputation for himself that charges stick easily. Mrs. Jones and Mrs. White are neigh- bors. Mrs. White has scratching poultry and Mrs, Jones has rose bushes. The rose bushes have been getting the worst of it. Mrs, Jones also dislikes the odor urising from Mrs. White's hog pen. Judge Aylesworth had a forenoon of hens, rose bushes and hogs. He finally dismissed the complaints and counter ir: ritants, but Mrs. White, who is a lijtle deaf, and did not hear the ruling of the court, kept up her talk untii the judge’s dinner hour had passed by an bour.

How They Manipulated the Markets i Three Southern Cities, w3 Mr. Sid Phelan of the Gate Cit exchange hasreturned from Biry st concluded a tussle with ppers, says an Atlanta, Ga. dispatch to the St. Louis Globe-Demo- crat: It nipulators cost him about $10,000, Mr. Phelan may be considered an authority p subject, an has an exchange in Mont- gomery and another in Birmigham, be- sides his exchange 1n Atlanta, and the market quotatiol it from Atlanta via Montgomet mingham, *ench exchange receiving the news at the same time. Now if the wire over which the news to an exchange is passing be tapped the quotations can be munipulated and trades can be made in_ the exchange to suit the wire-tappers. Being in pos: sion of the line, the wire-tappers can send the market either up or down. “‘About two months ago,” suid Mr, Phelan, *‘the wire leading to the Birming- ham exchange was tappeid somewhere in- side the limits of Birmingham with mar- velous suce , and the manipulators very soon struck us for $18,000, though L had to pay only §8,000 of that amount. When the n lators got possession of ich we were r i 3 were in a po: run prices either up or down by simply mutilating the quotations. For instance, when Louisville and Nashville were really 673, the fellows in possession of wire would send it in at 654, and their sentatives on the floor of the ex- nge would buy at that figure. ‘Then y would quote the stock at 67— de- cided rise—and close out, sticking the ex- change for the difference. Why, they had a dead sure thing, they . were fixing their buying and selling price, and we were dancing to the.r music, “When the manager of the Birming- ham exchange had hissuspicions aroused he did what we ealled asking for a veri- fication. ‘The request had to go to New York, and the quotation had to come back signed by the manager of the Gold and Stock Telegraph company. Well, the request for a verification was sent, and in’ about twenty minutes the able manipulator called up the exchange and very kindly told us the quotation was ‘O K, and signed their mutilating selves ‘Dealy,’ which was just the way the veri- fication would have™ been signed had it really come from New York, They had such complete possession ot the quota- tious that we could not get the correct figures from our other exchang by mail. Assoon as the quotati Atlanta were compared with the quora- tions in Birmingham the fraud was shown beyond the possibility of a doubt, and in settling [ refused to pay $10,000 ot the ill-gotten vrofits. *‘Dealy suys he did not send the verifi- cation which was palmed off on usas coming from him. ‘The wires were tapped on the first day of this month,and they got us for about $4,000, which was settled by arbitration to-day on the pay- ment of about $1,600."" *‘Was the thing ordered the same as before? **No, the quotations were not mutilated but they were taken off and held back until trades could be made on the tigures in possesssion of the wire tappers. ~ The tapping was done with an invisible wire, and when on the morning of the 1st we asked Montgomery the time of day the question was tuken off by the wire'tap- pers, who ed, Instead of giving us the true time, they made us set our (‘,fi)ek twelve minutes slow. As the quotations cate in then the wire tappers took them ofl. In that way they saw the quotations twelve minutes before they were received in the exchange, and could trade with an knowledge of which way the ts was going. Well jwe sold 4,000 barrels of pork at $17.50 per barrel, and it rose to $18.10 1n about ten minutes. That was & very lively market, but ti only thing wrong was the delay in receiy- mg. At 10:17 somebody signing himself Montgomery asked Birmingham what time it was and our operator rephed: ‘Why, man, you just gave the time a fow minutes ago,’ to which the reply came: d=—- d elock has stopped ! e tupping of the wire was evident to us then. ‘Lhe pork buyers held on and closed at $18.50.
