Unserupulous Solicitora Deocsiving Oouncil and People. MRS, BEATTIE'S SIGNATURE. Unauthorized, it I8 Usod to Show a Never Expressed Preforenco for Pavement of Gale burg Brick. Rogus Petition, For somé time past there has been a sus- ploion in the minds of sundry citizons that they were boing imposed upon in tho manner in which contractors for paving have secured signatures to their petitions for their favor ite material, and that which they could han- dle to the greater advantage. This impression has lingerod in thoir minds and has been allownd to rost thero, the aggrieved deoming that any effort upon their Ppart to correct the conditions of things would be fruitless. But a communication introduced into the council Taesday night, signed by Mary I3 Boattie, has, at last, started a movement that promises 1o bring to light any number of for- gories perpetrated by the solicitors employed by contractors, and ihe pursuance uand investization of which may eventually land somo of these affable gentlemen in tho criminal court. Mr. Hugh Murphy, one of the leadine con- tractors of the city, possesses unsurpassed facilities for securing paving brick, and as a consequence has boen active through the agency of solicitors, 1 obtaining tho signa- tures of property owners along streets whe paving has been ordered this yoar, to peti- tions requosting thatsuch thoroughfares be paved in brick. He succeeded in securing two contracts for this kind of work and was aftera third, which was to pave with vitrified fire orick, Thirtieth street from Spaulding north. His solicitors succeeded in securing a num- Dber of signatures to the petition and these in- cluded that of a gentleman named Parke who owned a iarge proportion of the prope ty along the street. r. Murphy had suffi- cient to get hin the contract, although an actual majority of the property owners were inclined towards other materials, Among them were supposed to be Mr. Beattie, but Tuesday, while woing over the petition asking for brick paving on this thoroughfare, a number of gentlemen inter- egged in the matter found the supposed sig- nature of Mr, Beattie’s wife, Mrs. Mary E. Beattie. The gentlemen at once went to Mr, Beat- tie and asked him what this menut, He had always declared himself in favor of other paving, and they could not understand why his wife should attuch her signature to a pe tition asking for brick. Mr. Beattie declared that if his wife's ared upon the poetition it was a and at once proceeded to the clor d for the document. He says k handed out tho petition ver reluctantly, but finally did so, and upon ey amination he found his wife's name attached he document, but written ina band en- tirely different from hers, ‘This led him to address a communication to the council in regard to the matter, My wife id Mr. Beattie, ‘“‘has been absent from the city for three months, len ing long before this petition was cireulated. 1 was absent all during the montn of August and my theory is that this solicitor cailod upon me at the store and finding that 1 absent and would be for three or four wee attached the nawe of my wifo to this peti- tion, hoping to rush it through bofore return, She owns a block of land up ther but she has always made it a rule not to sig documents of any kind but to refer them to me.”’ A report vesterday morring compn original s ure of Mrs. Beattio, fur by her husband, with t The genuine 18 1u the sty popular with ladies, w tion is in the raund countant. This, however, is which u nume tion by othe: nomen. Imnediately above the forged signature of Mrs. Beattie, is that of a man named M 8h1, who also owns some property out the The owner of the signatura declares this t be a forgery. Unlike the case of Mrs. Boat- tie, in signing the name of Magenshi, the penman has madea acsperate - attempt to imitate the signature of Magenshi, but the effort brought forth but a poor result, It is asserted that there are other names which have been forged to this petition, and at there are petitions to which signatures > been forged, and which have been ac- cepted by the council, contracts allowed and work begun, The uvestigation which has been com- menced promises to annul many of the pay- ing coniracts let this year.

When the touring seaon opens next year it will find the Union Pacific witn a line terminating on the west limits of the Ye! lowstone Nutional park. Ever since the park was established by the government the Northern Pacific has had a monopoly of the business, figuratively spenk- ing, for the reason that it has u lino termi- nating withio eight milos of the paric, Three " different times the Union Pacitic made a sur- vey from Boaver Canon with that the matter rested, Chief Engineer Bogue has completed a survey leading from Ilurle Rock, a town nine miles south of the Boaver cauon sur and from which a road 10 the park can be con- structed with but litde filling or grading and no tunneling. 1t will oniy requirc abont sixty-five miles of road. Tho Iatter survey hus beon accopted and the roud will be pushed to completion at once. The Union Pacitic has practically arranged with James Stephenson, of this city, for tho runniog of a fully equipped stage line from the terminal of the road to the park and to ail points of iuterest. Mr. Stephenson proposes to press his fam- ous Concord stages into the scryice and through the nncven districts maintain relays every twelve miles. his will be taken up with Vice President Holcomb immediately upon his return from the west. THE VIADUUT AND DEPOT. to the purk, but General Manager Kimball Gives His View.on the Situation. General Mavager Kimball of the Union Pacific, in speaking of the Tenth stroet via- duct proposition, said: *“The Union Pacille, when it asked for a vote of $150,000 in bonds in cornection with the union depot and via- auct, based its cost of construction on & via- duct sixty fect wide., At this width and with the pro| /1o of tho struc- ture, an outlay of at lea 00 would be required. I can see no r 100 wide should be constr would be out of reason entirely. The widest vinduct in the United States, Manhattan bridge in New York city is only eighty f while the new viaduct leading out to Brighton ch at the same point is only sixty feet , independent of this, 1f you build a wide viaduct of the proposed kiad, the ligh 18 shut out from the buildings that are lowe which means a great deal. cted. That ent roowm is left for drivoways on o t toams can pass alongside and under the structure from the c ment of the incline on eitherend. other good reasons why the viaduot should not be over sixty feet wide. Hut I will say this, that if the city thiuks that by voting $150,000 it can crowd on a structure that will cost $330,000 or 400,000, there is a serious mistake, for under such circumstances there will be neither depot or viaduct, as far as the Union Pacific 18 concerned.”” MANAHAN DISCHARGED, And He May be Prosecuted For Oriminal Negligence. Timothy Manahan, the Union Pacific en- gineer who dasboed into an Elihora train with his engive ot Fremont several days g0, bas beon discharged from the service of the company, After vhe aceident occurred, Mauaban fraakly @lwitted that he was in part 1o blaime, but attached part of the blawe to the conductor and brakeman.
