Several interested and energetic workers are busily engaged in trying to soothe the rnfMed feelings of Council Blufts, and allay the indignation o freely expressed in re- gard to the motor line, All the railways have agreed to let the motor line cross their tracke, the Chicago, Milwaukeo & St. Paul alone refusing. Their obstenacy has-caused the motor line to stop, and the Manawa hotel to close, The other enterprises here are so crippled that the howl has gone up, wild and prolonged. - The citizons i excitedly nsking why the Milwaukee & St, Paul refuses 10 do oo e AR Eabass havb, aetoad.

Many express the be- t\.hien the managers of the Milwau- kee & St. Paul fully understand the situation here they will consent to have the motor line cross their tracks on the same conditions which the other roads have agreed to. They also predict that when they thus learn how they have been misled in regard to the mat- ter there may be changes in the local repr sentatives of that road. Perhaps the possi- bility of such a showingz of facts, and_such n change may account for the remarkable tivity shown in trying to altay the indigna- tion, One well known citizen remarked yester- day: *It's the worst thing that has hap- pened Council Bluffs, I was down the road the othor day and T heard a lot of talk about At Creston, in the hotel, there were sev- eral follows talking about it.

A strong pressure was being brought to bear yesterday to induce the Jocal press to be thie matter through the same eye-glasses s the railway officials. What effect this has had will probably be evidenced in the col- umns of the several papers thus approached. s Conih Before the Bar. Nine victims obeyed the order of Jailor Barhyte to *fall in” yesterday morning when Judge Aylesworth appeared in police court to conduct the Monday morning review. Sev- eral of them hud obtained suflicient booze to get gloriously full, notwithstanding the fact that the saloons were all closed on Sunday, and the court was thus enabled to gather in aneat little sum for the city treasury by practically applying the prolibition clause of the statutes. Johm Bailey was held up for $7.00 and H. Barnum, Patrick O'Day and Thorias Kelley were eich relieved of $5.10.

Sunday afternoon a good-looking young woman entered Bell's drug store on South Tenth street near the Union Pacific tracks and asked for seven one-fourth grain mor- phine powders. The attendant, as is cus- tomary in such cases, asked her if she had a prescription, to which she replied that she had not. The next question propounded was whether or not she was acquainted with the nature of the drug, to which her answers were satisfactory. The clerk gave her three grains. Shortly after this occurrence a young man came into the store and breathlessly inquired for a physician. Dr. Miller being the nearest medical wman, he was directed to his office, and flew out in quest of him n as great haste as he arrived. The doctor was informed that a young lady had attempted to commit suicide, and was taken across the tracks to a boarding house kept by a family named Vinston, where he found the young woman mentioned in the agonies of approach ing death, She was suffering from nervous hysterics only, and the doctor administered bromide and departed. Who the woman is is a mystery. A re- porter who learned of the above occurrence yesterday started to probe the matter. At Bell's store the purchase of the morphine and the physician's visit were verified. . A call at Dr. Miller’s of- fice developed the fact that the woman had taken mnone of the morphine. The young woman’s boarding house then received ittention. Mrs. Vinston, the landlady, who rtheast corner of Ninth and and in reply td questions young woman mentioned was the house but was 'asleep. *“Could the re porter see hert” ““Oh, no,” the young lady was not in a condition to be disturbed. 'What was her name ("’ She did not know. LThe woman only came on Saturday. A vol- ley of questions failed to move her and the scribe meandered down the street. 'I'wo women who were weeding let- tuce bed volunteered the information that the morphine-taker W from lowa. That a young married man, a telegraph operator, had been criminally intimate with her and that she had become encientes. She had besought him to help her but he nad refused, hence she had taken the morphine hoping {o hide her shame. 1t is since learned that the operator has skipped. The man was seen to wo down Pacific street with her Sun- and she heard to exclaim, *I u would get me out of this,” to which plied, *Oh, d——n it, you were to blame; I won't help you a bit.” At these words the girl is said to have burst into tears and left him,after which it is supposed she went back and took the deadly drug. A detective is now at work upon the case.

With reference to the recent congressional enactment reducing the hours of letter- carriers to eight, with pay for over-time, Postmaster Gallagher says: “If the car- riers' hours for the homo office are reduced to eight, it will necessitate the appomtment of six additional carriers to accomplish the work. The department_has been furnished with all the requisite _information as to our delivery system, and should the new law go into effect, theré is no doubt but what the nece: extra carriers would be appointed. 1f they are not, the present force can ouly be remunerated for their extra labor, and but few will kick against that. The new law promises to receive a hearty endorse- ment from the carriers throughout the country.” SPECIAL NOTICES.
