How the Dealers Talk About the N Local Supply and Demand. DOINGS IN THE COUNTY JAIL. Colonel Broadwell Waiting to Be Taken to the Penitentiary—The New Board of Trade— Personals. Great Minds Differ. Mayor Rohrer had rather a warm in- itiation Monday night into his duties iding officer of the city council. It has been known for o long time that hest of feeling has not existed be- n certain city officials and on that evening the “blood™ came to the sur- face ‘ Wt is just the way the buginess of the city has always heen done,” marked City Engincer Tostevin, “No wonde ty has always been in litigati 'ted Solicitor Holmes. any difficulty through sny act of mine,” warmly re- sponded the engineer. “That's just what's the matter,” s the attornéy. *You have been try o run your own office and mine too have stood it until now and hereaft proposc to attend to my own business.” The mayor's gavel was rapped for order and the engineer at- tempted to turn the course of debate from himself by calling the attention of the council to other business, but the solicitor was bound to be heard and repeated his statement several times, The engine: ced up his hat and passed down stai to his own office. Then order wassecured aud the order of busines ) The immediate canse of this outbreak was this: Owen Bros.., grading con- tractors, have thus far done about $8,000 worth of work upon the contract with the eity and have not until now asked the cotneil for money. Monday evening the city enginegr presented partial estimatés upon two blocks on Broadway and a resolution was introduced giving bonds to the amount of $1.700 to Owen Bros. The complete or final estimate being over #2100, the difference was thought sufticient to insure a final com- pletion of the work. The engineer asked that 10 per cent of this first wmount be withheld, as has been the custom, until ghe entire contract was completed and accepted by the As this resolution called for bonds, the soticitor took the ground that such a proceeding would be illegal. He said that partial payments could be made upon partial cstimates but they must be made in ants drawn upon the fund ted for that wrticular line of improvement: that honds could only be issued to contractors on the finishing of their work and its aceeptance by the city If this view | , one th has evidently b tle irregularit in the manner in which the city has hevetofore done this department of ats business, but whether this is essential i ther matter.

Tho steady stay of the mercury below the zero mark, and the terrible storms which have characterized the weather of late, have centered the attention on the matter of fuel. There have been all sorts of reports about a shortage of soft coal, which in view of the high price of hard coal, has led many to seek this as fuel, There have been intima- tions that there was a combination among the dealers for forcing up the price of soft coul, and that this had proved so successful that as high as 88 a ton was being got by some. It has also been suggested that there wasa move to force a change from soft coal to hard coal, on account of the dealers be- ing overstocked on hard, and desiring to unload. Asa tester of how the coal men themselves are feeling, the BEE sought out a number of them yesterday. Mr. Myers, of Brown & Myers, re- that they were all out of soft Towa coal—but had soft coal from Virginia, s superior quality, which they were selling at ¥ u ton. “If the wenther should come off severe again, I'm afraid there would be a good deal of suffering on account of the scarcity of soft coal, T belicve the schools should be closed and the people allowed to buy the soft coal stored there for the people pay for that coal,and it belongs to them. If soft conl cannot be shipped in here in quantities to supply the needs, something like that shoufd be done. The trouble is not with the mines, for there is enough soft coal to be had, but someway it isn’t coming in. I think the railways are at fault. Some think they use the soft coal for themselyes. One thing is certain the dealers are not able to get it shipped in here as fast as they ought. There’s hard coal enough, not over stock, but enough to carry through any sev weather. Of course ther isn’'t enough to supply the whole winte through, but more ¢an be had before what is on hand is used.” W. W. Wallace—"'I think this soft coul famine is a good deal of a myth. You needn’t say much about it in the but that's my opinion. 1 have been supplying my customers right along, and ut the same prices as before the storm, $4 and %5 a ton. [ have plenty to supply my trade, and have sold prob- ably a hundred tons since the storm,” Do you tnink there is a combination to force the sale of hard coal?” *I don’t see any object in that. There's no great margin in hard coal, for the dealers, this season. It's closer in pro- portion than soft coal. No, I don't see use of such a move. There is no ek of hard coal. T've just been s some more hard conl, No, I don’t take much stock in the talk about any fumine of soft conl. Frequently there ave folks who come in here and ask if I have any soft coal, and what it is worth, and when I tell them that I've got conl they don't seem to be o anxious to get it. If they couldn’t get it, they would then want it, and want it bad.” Proceeding to the oflice of the Council Bluffs Fuel company the same questions were fired at the clerk. He admitted there was a stringency in the market, but thought that with care in handling what they . could get there would be to th lack e snl new sections of country have been opened up by the railroads, and these carriers now in years past into Kansasand that south- THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY enough to su; “wry : THE FORTUNATE FIGURE!

During the year 1886 the number of persons killed by wild animals and venomous snakes in Hindoston was 24,- 841. Thisis an_ increase of 1,934 over the figures for the previousgear. The fatalities from snake bites rose from 20.142 to 22,134, while wild animals killed 2,707 persons, as compared with 2,765 in 1885, Tigers were responsible for 928 deaths and wolves for 222, these figures showing 90 more deaths from tigers and 26 fewer from wolves as com- pared with the g:m',m]im: year. Kl phants, Icg}mrds‘ cars, hycenas, alliga- tors, crocodiles, wild cats, and panthers had also their quota of victims. The very large proportion of the total deaths from injuries inflicted by wild animals and snakes take place in the lower provinces of Bengal and in the northwestern provinces and Oude. K example, during 1836 no fewer than 805 fatal cases of the aggregate of 24 for the whole of India occurred in these districts. In Bengal during the year 477 deaths were caused by jackals and 198 by alligators.

Compuring the year 1886 with 1885, the number of tigers killed fell from 1,855 to 1,464, of leopards from 5466 to 4,051, and of bears from 1,874 to 1,568, The decline was chiefly in Bengal and Madras, and the reason has been generally attributed to the smallness of the rewards, where- by shikaris are not encouraged to kill the noxious animals. There was a falling off in the number of snakes killed from 420,044 to 417.596. The decline was chiefly in Bengal, and the cause assigned is again the small amount available for the payment of re- wards, The total amount paid in India during 1886 in re: tion of wild animals and pe snakes was Rs. 1,80.0 ninst Rs. 224,126 in the pry Of the former amount 25 d for the ruction of snakes.. he snakes d in Bombay were more in number snakes destroyed over blankets. pattern, worth ‘DR.

Very few people, save tical railroad managers, have any idea that the renewals of steel rails were smaller in proportion to the total mile- age of the country during the years 1884 and 1885 than in any other two years of the past twenty, except the bar- ren yaars of 1876 and 1877; nor was the progress of improvement during 1886 anything more than the average.
