A Mixed Squabbls Over the Saloon License Money. DISTRICT COURT PROCEEDINGS. The Building Boom Continues—The Old COider Oase—The Oxden Changes Hands — Notes About the City. Who Shall Have the Monoy? The question of refunding the money re- cently paid over to the city clerk by the sa- loon men of the city as fines for April, and ordered returned by Judge Aylesworth, is still causing trouble in the minds of interested parties. Yesterday afternoon, John Lindt, esq., attorney for the saloon men, appeared at th and demanded that the money be paid over as ordered. The city clerk refused, as City Attorney. Holmes had instructed bim that the cases were not dis- missed. Judge Aylesworth, who was present, insisted that they were dismissed, and or- dered the money refanded forthwith, Some of 1t was paid. a hen transpired that ex-City Clerk Burke stili holas about $0 belonging to the city, and refuses to tura it over until he is satisfied that the amount is actually due. Of this amount, £125 is saloon money that must be refunded. It is statod that suit will be brought against the bonds- men of the ex-clerk to recover the money. It will be remembered that when Judge Aylesworth made his ruling in the saloon cascs, several of them were dismissed, and the 'others set for an early trial The defendants did not appear in_court, and bench warrants were issued for theit arrest. At the request of City Attorney Holmes, the warrants have not yet been served, a8 ho desired to make arrangements of some kind. The cases are still pending, and the indications are that the outcome will be the same as in those alrcady tried, and the money paid in will be ordered Tn speaking of these easos yesterday, torney Lindt said: *The mayor will find before he gets through with this matter that the city can't blackmail the saloon men. It has gone just about as far as it can, and there will be grief for him if he tries to keep 1t up. ‘This democratic council has done several very queer things, and I propose to tackle them before very long. They have proceeded illogally in* many _instances. and it may make them an endless amount of trouble No, I won't tell what I will picic up next, for I doi't want them to find out and be on their guard. 8The fun isn’t all over yet by a good deal, and if you keep your eyes open you will soon see some very interesting things,” Sh el th Ap S.

A new register was opened in police court yesterday morning, and the first parties booked thereon were five vags, who were corrailed I the Rock Island freight yards. Sam Driesbach, who was arrested Tuesday evening for disturbing the peace, had his case continued until this morning. Two other evil doers settled for the deeds done in the body by promptly paying o fine and costs. George H. Dexter paid costs and took out a license to run an employment agency on Pearl street. Ther e certain features con- nected with this case that aro yet to be de- veloved ~ Some weeks ago a girl appiied there for a situation _as servant. A few days later OM- cer Thomas went there to gev a girl and the one above referred to was sent to his place, and Dexter taxed the officer another dollar for filling the vacancy. Thomas refused to pay it alleging that the girl had paid and that was sufticient. Doxter was persistent and the officer arrested him for running an employment agency without_a license. The result was as above stated. Now Dexter has brought suit against Thomas to coliect the dollar and costs. Thomas waxes wrathy and says that inasmuch as Dexter was domng business illegally, he cannot collect any money und intimates his intention of making Dexter give up the §2 collected from the gi rl.

MAY 2, 1859 SUNDAY TRAINS, A Movement to Reduce This Part of he Service. General Traffic Manager Mellen, of the Union Pacific, has gone to Chicago, where a meeting of the generai managers and general superintendents of all the western roads will be held to-day. Some important questions will come up before this meeting. The prin- cipal one, however, is in connection with the abolition of the Sunday train service. For some length of time there has been consider- able controversy over the running of Sunday trains, both passenger and freight, and the matter has reached that pointthat something pointing to their reduction is wbout to be arranged. The movement has been brought about by represent- atives of * the Union Pacific, Burlington, Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley, Mis- souri Pacitic, Chicago, St. Paul, N & Omahu, Milwaukee, Northwe bash, Rock Island, and in fact all western and central lines, ' In this direction its prin- cipal issue will be made on freight trains, Owing to the decrease in the volume of traf- fic the opinion is that the freight can be moved during week days, and that there is no occasion for operating freight trains on Sunoay, aside from those required to move perishable freight. ~ With this in view the representatives of the roads will mect at Chi- cigo * to-d. anfl_ decide. Some of the lines walso favor the reduction of passenger servico on Bunday, and it thought that o chan in this line may result by operating through Sunday trains alternately by parallel lines Should unday freight trains be discon- tinued the train service of all the roads will be decreased about one-eighth, thesaving of an enormous amo An‘oficial of the Union Pacy the change would be accompanied by a large saving, and that in all probability ut the meeting to be held to-morrow the matter would be so decided. resulting in nt of money. c stated that Laborers Dissatisfled. Considerable dissatisfaction is prevalent anmong the workmen in the repair track cir- cle of the Union Pacific at this place. Tues- day two of the thrce men composing the wrecking crew were transferred to the re- pair traek and two of the workmen at the latter pomnt were discharged. [n doing this the men taken from the wrecker are com- pelled to perform double service. They are included in the wracking crew and are also compelled to work on_the repair track with the understanding that in case the wrecking derrick is called out they must be on hand at auy hour of the day or night and for the dou- ble service they are to receive pay for but one. This, they think, savors of retrench- ment too finely and in_'consequence a_bitter feeling toward & certain ofiicial 18 brewing. Revised Passenger Rates. The rates from Omaha to all points on the various railroads were advanced 15 conts yes- tesday. This was brought about by the Union Pacific advanciog its rates over the bridge at this place from 10 to 25 conts, tho same having taken effect to-day. In tourists’ Denver, Colorado Springs and ay were advanced from 25 to §30, and the tickets will be limited to rty days going and five days returnin. This change has been made in order to pre- vent the scalpers from cutting in on general traftic by dickeringin coupons. Yesterday the second-class rate from Omaha to Helena and Butto took effect with a reduction from £32.50 to $25 for one way fare, Equalized Rates. The petition of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha for the right to put 1n a tariff on business originating at northern Nebraska points on the Union Pacific to Du- luth corresponding with that to Chicago has been granted by the board of arbiration. This matter has been_before the traftic man- agers for a considerable length of time and every effort put forth by the Omaha road met with powerful _opposition by the repre- sentatives of the Chicago roads. Why Chi- cago roads should receive a_differential over Duluth for a like haul is what prompted the Omaha road to press its petition. This will make the rail-marine circuit for Nebraska products a’permanent one. Burlington Ohanges. The Burlington will make changes in its overland trains in the time of arrival and departure at this place to correspond with that of the new schedulo on the Union Pa- cifie. General. Manager Holdreage left yesterday for Chicago, where he will attend @ conference to-morrow in connection with the new transcontinental train schedule. Was Overworked, John W. Scott, chief clerk of the passen- ger department of the Union Pacific, is at Colfax Springs, and not in the best of health. He has been ill for some length of time which is attributed to overwork at his desk in the headquarters. His many friends will b pleased to learn that he is recovering and will s00n be at Kansas City with the title of passenger and ticket agent for the Union Pacitic. Railroad Notes.
