A Glance at City Finances—A Big Month's Work For the Police— Judge Carson Declines to Appoint a Hotel Recelver. Death of the Successful Beggar., On the 14th of July the police found an old, blind man, begging for mnickles on the streets, and heavily loaded with anti- prohibition. He was arrested, and on being searched, the surprising result being the disclosure of 103 stored about in various pockets. The old beggar's name was Kearn, and he has for some years been hanging around this city and vicinity. Nobody dreamed that he bad any money, and a portion of the time he has been cared for at the county poor farm, HNe was sent from the city jail to the county jail, and has been cared for there until Sunday night when the old man died. He had been ailing some, but was not deemed dangerouvsly ill. He passed away quite unexpectedly, So far as can be learned he has no friends or relatives in this part of the country. ‘The county will bury him, and take the ex- pense from what money he had left. —— The City Finances.

Yesterday morning Judge Carson, in chambers, rendered a decision in the case of Long vs Frank Clark, of the Manawa hotel, in which an application is made for the appointment of a receiver. Judge Carson refused to appoint the recciver, and stated as his reasons that Long was the only creditor who appeared to be anxious for such &n appointment, and that the situation ot affairs at the hotel was such that he did not see any neces- sity for the court taking charge of the in- stitution. ‘The furniture has been all re- moved, und there is nothing there but the building at present, and no business being done. Under these circumstances there seems little tor a receiver to do. Mr. Clark expressed himself yesterday as highly pleased at the result. *“It wiil be my turn now. Therest have had their turn, and they have sued all that the; wanted to. ow I will nave my turn. { have nothing to announce, but every- tIlinF is workmf along all right.” The public would like to see things move along all right with the hotel, and the sooner the enterprise is put upon its feet, on a sound financial basis, and under proper management, the better 1t will please this communit No Damon and Pythias. Some weeks ago Mrs. Hasty told the police a pitiful story about the manner in which the Salvation ariny had beguiled her daughter, a sweet sixteen, and had induced her to leave home and go to Fremont. She claimed that one of the red-shirted masculines came to the house after the girl’s trunk, and threatened the mother with prosecution for some al- leged offense unless the trunk was given up to him. She drove him out of the yard with a clothes stick. Then she got out a warrant charging him with endeav- oring to extort property by malicious threats. Before the warrant could be served the fellow had disappeared, and report had it that he had skipped to avold arrest, Sunday he was back here, and the police hearing of this fact went after him. They got the wrong man first, a fellow named William R. Peckham, and the fellow who was wanted, and whose name appears to be William Relander, slipped out of the rear door of the Army hall and skipped out. - He allowed his dear brother soldier to be locked up in- nocently in his place, while he went off to the outskirts of the city, tucked himself in his hittle bed and waited for the morn- ing light. 1t was soon discovered that the wrong man had been taken in, and the patrol wagon was sent after the right one. He had a two-mile ride in the mid- dle of the night, and was safely pla bedind the bars. He denies that he ever made any such th: s as Mrs. Hasty claimed. "He will have 8 chance to ex- plain this afternoon. Whatever may be the result of tie case he will haraly es- cape censure for the ungallant way in which he allowed a brother soldier to suf- fer imprisonment innocently, in order to save himself from disgrace aud discom- tort. A New Trunk Factory. Phillip Young, of the firm of Zimmer- man & Young Bros., is at the Pacific house looking over the ground with a view of establishing in this a trunk fac- tory. The firm is now located at Blythe- dale, Mo, and is manufacturing Zimmer- man’s patent automatic trunk, It is an ingenious device, by which the trunkcon- sists of a series of self-adjusting trays. With this sort of a trunk it is not neces- sary to pull over all the contents in order to get at any desired article. Mr. Young 18 considering the advisability of locating, and unlike many who look i)r new loca- tions, this tirm asks no capital, bonus or subscription. Mr. Young 1s hunting for a suitable building, with room to work twenty-five men. Besides manufactur- ing this patent trunk, the firm will do a general business in the line of repairing trunks, making valises, éto. 'l has already been offcred frea rent for two years In St. Joe, but this city is pre- ferred by them on some accounts, and if o suitable location can be secured the enterprise will locate here. Two or three places have been considered, but the rents asked have been rather h]zner than it is deemed fair. The only move neces- sary to secure the location of this factor, here is the providing of a suitable build- ing at a moderate rental. — - The Ctty Solons. The city council met last night in_reg- ular monthly session, there being just a quorum present, It was nearly 9 o'clock before they were called to order. As ugnal, at the regular monthly ses- sions, the greater part of the session was ocoupted by allowing the monthly bills and the reports of the city officers.

W, Coralt as sureties in the sum of $1,000, approved. — - Bonds For the Fire Alarm. There has been a good deal of talk about the Richmond fire and police alarm company not having filed the bonds called for in their contract. These bonds were to make good the guarantee that the works will prove satisfactory for two years from the date of their acceptance. All doubts and quibbles h now been done away with by the filling of the re- quired bonds, in the sum of 2,000, with George F. Wright and T. J. Evans as security. The Richmond company has uot been paid any money on 1ts contract yet, although the system has been in use here for some months, ‘The council could not pay any, and it "has not been demanded, until the bonds were filed, The city is now pretty well secured, and should the system not prove a success by a two years' trial the city can hardly lose by the deal. See- ——— Shortening Street Car Time. Another switch is being put in the strect car line on Broadway east of Bryant street. When this is ready for use the company will have two switches on Broadway, the other beinF near the brewery. hen the cars will make trips every seven and a half minutes instead of fifteen. The street car service is being improved so rapidly that it will not be long before it will get metropolitan enough to have cars running evenings ¢s well as in the daytime. The increased service is causing an 1ncreased revenue, and_the policy of accommodating the public seems to be a prefitable one. e The Union Pacific Round Houase. The building of the Union Pacific round house is an assured fact. There have been a lot of railroad ties piled up on the ground to be occupied by the house and these were removed yesterday so that the ground can be broken to-day. The sand, brick, stone and other mate- rial is being placed on the ground and the work will be pushed right ulong.
