The window isabout five fect from the ground, and the burglar had taken a frail flower stand and 1it against the build- ing to stand on. sudden appearance of the lady startled him, and as be dodged back he knocked the flower stand from under his feet. As he fell the window came down with him, catching him on th f the neck, with his chin on the inside of the window in a position to break his neck or make bim an easy capture, The lady, unfortunately, did not have the courage to'seize the window and muke a guillotine of it, and after = brief struggle the burglav released himself and dis- appearcd.

An other move was made yesterday, and it shows how carnest the business men of the city fu their offorts in this direction, 'Ih divectors of tho motor company held a mect- fug in Omaba yesterday aftornoon, and a proposition from several of the representa. tive men of the Bluffs was presented by Hon I, Wright, secretary of the board of divectors, 1t was to the effect that if th company would seil commutation tickets, limited to thirty days and good for fifty rides, for £2.50, to be used before 8 o'clock in the morning, and between 5 and 7 o'clock in the eveniug, the signers would furnish a bond for 810,000, with surcties to be approved by any one named by the company, to wake good puy falling off in the receipts for the year fol Jowing its adoption, as compared With the your § ling, The proposition was signed by Thomas Ofieer, 1. Lacy, S. P. MacCon- nell, D.W. Archer, H. H. Van Bruut, P. C. Do Vol, C.R. Haduan, J. E. K. McGee and Walter' L Suiith. The understanding is that the bond shall not be filed until it is signed by at least oue hundred citizens, cach of whom will be guaranteed by some banker to be goog for their share of the bond SeveMl of the parties who are pushing the matter went to Presidont Stewart of the motor company yesterday morning and re quested him o introduce the proposition at the directors’ meeting, but he accorded them a very frigid reception, and refused point blank to accedo to their’ request, stating that he was opposed to uny such move and would have nothing todo with it. The committeo were not disheartened by this discourteous treatment, and finally sought out Mr. Wright, who kindly agreed to present the proposition When it was introduced Mr. Stewart evinced an undue haste to adjourn, und cur « his point before the matter could be dis ussed or acted upon. All that could be done was to refer it to the executive committee, composed of Messrs. Stewart, Barton, Wright and Wells, who will report upon it atthe next meeting, which will be held carly in June, us 8001 48 the company’s new office ut the corner of Tywenty-eighth and Avenue A is completed Al meotings hereafter will be Lield onthis side of the river.

Mr. Evans aud [are in favor of a reduced farc, and I believe that Mr. Mil lard is favorably impressed with the showinge that has been made by the board of trade committee. ST don't know as Mr. Stew Barton can be induced to change their opin jon, but Mr, Millard is not an opinionativ man, He does not consider himself infallib and believes that the opinions of other people re entitled to some consideration. He is ooen to conviction and is ready to entertain the views of good practical tusiness men. If he can be shown that the desired move | would benefit the Bluffs and woula not hurt the company he would be willing to grant concessions, and | think the same is true of Mr, Wells, The teduction cannot be seeured | against the wish of a majority of the board of direetors, of whom th are six It i« yet impossible to tell what the result will be, as this is the sl move that has been made towards ving a reduced fare. I believe that it will be suceessful. It often happens that a lover is dismissed at fivst, but he gets there just the same after a while, and I think that if the committee keeps at work, the desived concession will be made Somc of the members of the committee seon and they were positive that they would secure the reduction. Said one of them: “How can the company stand out in the face of our proposition? We really took them up at their own terms, When we asked them to give us a b cent fare morning and evening, they said that there were 300 regular passengers who worked in - Omaha and lived in the Bluffs, and that if they were to reduce the fare they would lose over #0000 ayear from these passengers alone. This wits of course the only loss that_they could claim, hence we offer our indemnifying bond of #10,000, which more than covers'it. They can’t lose. anything by it, and it is cert that the increase in business would muc more than make up forit. If this isn't fair, | I don’t know what is. We must have the re duction, « i faith in it by offering to put up this guaranty, We are interested in the Bluffs, but we dow't want the motor company to do buslness at aloss for our benefit What_benetits us benefits them, an want is something that gives both side show.” . Dircetor Evans is in favor of the reduction, as he has been all along, but he was not pres ent at yesterd; eeting, and neither was Director Wells, Mr. Evans: “I want to uced fare, because I know that the company will make more money by it.

It is given out on all sides that President J. T. Stewart is the ouly obstacle in the way of a reduced fare, and that if he would only have agreed to it the reduction would made long ago. It s quictly hinted that Mr, Stewart has even threatencd to resign if the reduction is made. Oue thing is certain, and that is that the president, in his lordly way, has been having remarkable good success in running things just as he wants them, It understood that at the previous the board he has maintained the of Council Bluffs do not need any. of fare, notwithstanding the univ mand that they have been making for months past for ¢ r transportation between the two citics.
