THREE MORE MEN ACCUSED. Wames of Oity Oouncilmen Added to the List of Accused Boodlers, BLOODSHED WAS NARROWLY AVOIDED. Members Offer to Fight on the Floor of the Chamber—fRecord of a Lively Adjourned Mecting. Tho people who failed to attend last night's adjourned council moeting missed a picnic. The meeting was for the parpose of select- ing the registrars and fixing upon the places where they would sit prior to the holding of the Nover election. It was supposed that there would be no charges ot boodlo or trips to the forbidden portion of the city. located in the vicinity of Ninth street, and consequently Messrs. Bechel, Blumer, Bruner, Chaffee, Donnelly and Madsen ab- sented themselves, Soon after the calling of the roll, Mr. Morearty, the chairman of the committee on judiciaty, reported that he had not com- ploted the list of registrars, but was ready to submit a partial report. In addition to his regular report he stated that William Ander- sou and D. P. Angel had proper persons to sit in the Eighth ward. He did not think so, and had substitutod in their stend the names of John H. Butler and James H. Barnes.

Mr. Osthoft brought on the trouble by ask- ing for additional names. He stated that Tuesday night it had been charged that Messrs. Burdish, Conway and Morearty had beon charged with baving soen some of the good money that was brought to Omaha by tho Ketcham Furniture company. Mr. Davis hud named these three men and had given the information that other men had been osught in the same net. He demanded that Mr. Davis should furnish the names of the other councilmen, A motion to adjourn was lost during tho storm of excitement. Mr. Davis said that Mr. Specht had named tho meu, and if he, Specht, did not furnish them Satucday night they would be pro- sented. Mr. Osthoft wanted to hear the names at once. to did not Lnow but he might bo charged with having received furniture money, and if s0 wanted time to prepare for tho baftle, Mr. Specht assured Mr. Osthoff that he was not one of the accused. This relieved the gentieman from the Fifth, but Mr. Conway did not feel as oasy. Ho had a word to say and said it _after tbis stylo: “Why did he pick out three Micks: If ho has othor men let him name them and not play the part of & a—d coward. 1 want to give Mr. Spechtouo thiug to understand. 1go to tho burnt district when I please, and bo does not have to pay any of my bills.” 1f Mr. Specht Is a gentieman he will give the uumes now,” remarked President Lowry. : Mr. Spocht replied by saving that the meeting was call~g or_the purpose of fixiog the places of regist ion, but that Saturday night ho would be on hand with the names and the proofs. “Mr. Specht, do I understand that you refuse to give the names!’ questioned Mr. Lowry. “Saturday night you shall have tuem," quietly responded Mr. Specht. Morearty Against Specht. Mr. Morearty then took a hand, and walk- ing towards Mr. Specht said “You ure & coward. You do not have the courage to uame the men. Only a dastardly coward would resort to such low, contemp- bible tactics." “Lam not a coward,” sald Mr. Specht as ho jumped to his feet, grasped the back of a chair and advancod toward Mr. Morearty 1 will prove more than you will want to hear, aud 1 will also prove that you are the cowara. “I'he two men were withiu four foet of each other when tho sorgeant-at-arms interferod and remarked. “Geutlomen, you cannot fight in this roou ‘Tho president pounded for orde elared that no fight could take place.

He thought that any of ‘the council who would open session and coll anothe member a coward was a coward himself. He kuow that Mr. Specht would name the men when the proper time came, aud he did not believe any person could compel him to do so before. o also thought that the papers hud said too much, Their reports had reflected upon the | council to such an extent that it was a stand- | g disgrace to bolong to the vody. He nted to sce the charges sifted and prom- ired to help convict and punish each and every guilly man Mr. Lowry stated that as long as the names were kept from the public suspicion restod upon every member of the council Mr. Ostnoff ~ had heard that Mr. Specht had given the names of the other accused to Mr. Davis, and if Mr. Specht | would not furnish them to the council, he, | Osthoff, would insist that Mr. Davis aame the men.

Mr. Davis explained that in the excitement ho did rot think of it. It was not because he wanted to shield any person.

Discussion Beforo the Chemical Society. Chicago Tribune.] To the Editor of The Tribune—Sir: I have just seen the report in your issue of Sept. 3 of the discussion at the. Washington meeting of the American Chemical Soclety, Aug. 15, relative to the use of carbonate of awmonia in baking powders. This report is incomplete and incorrect in many particulars, and as the papor which pre- cipitated the aiscussion was read by me_and was based upon my own experiments, I d siro to mako certain corrections in the inter- est of the truth and for the benefit of the large number of your readers to whom the qacstion is one of great woment. “The paper as read before the society re- lated that ammonia in bakiug powder is taiued in the bread by reason of its affinity to the gluten. The consensus of opinion as expressed during the discussion was against the use of carbonate of ammoniain baking powder with the only exception of Dr. Me- Murtrie, who is now_ an employe of & baking powder ‘company which uses carbonate of ammonia i its baking powder, Of the other parties mentioned as_having taken part_in the discussion were Prof. Dr. | Barker of the University of Pennsylvania, who s _the president of the society and one of our highddt authomities. In answerto a pleading by Prof. McMurtrie that ouly small quantities of ammonia were used in baking powders, he stated: o matter how small the quantity, I must decline to bo dosed med- ically without my consent when taking my meals." Dr. E. H. Bartley, formerly chemist of the Brooklyn Board of Health and professor of chemistry at tho Long Island college, like: vise named, dia not, | beliove, take active tin tho discussion, but is already on rec- ord as strongly opposed to the use of ammo- nium carborate in baking powdors. Dr. Richardson volunteered only the gues- tion whether tho flour used in the experi- ments was of good quulity, of which I as- sured nim by stating that it was tho best and the flour used in my family. Prof. Mallet was not present. Your article is misleading in so far as it gives the impressiou that ammonia disappears on baking, My actual tests agreo with those made by others, sowing that ammenia re- mains in the bread. My investigations simply assign & new cause for its retention, H., ExpEMANY, Ph.

THEY WANT TO COME TO OMATIA. At the fifty-sccond annual _session of the Rock river conference of the Methodist Epis- cspal church, which began its labors at Joliet this morning, there are a lot of minis- ters wearing lightning rods in auticipation of a vpossible stroke coming their way when the voting begins for gates to the general church conference. to meet in Omaha noxt May. ~Six delegates will represeut the Rock River conference, while six times six men are willing, even anxious, to serve iu this capacity. Here is what a prominent deiegate gives as his prog- nostication: “‘Either Rev. Dr. Curtis of the Western Avenue church in Chicago or Rev. frank L. Bristol will lead the delegation Dr. W. A. Spencer will go to Owaba and Presiding Elder Trusdell will give up his oftice for ono of more nonor and less work in this connection. The two presiding elders now in office will be among tho six named by the conference. Thero is a possibility of one prominent Chicago pastor being included in the number,” QDDS AND ENDS, To hear 1,000,000 voices sing the opening chorus when tho world's fair puildings are dedicated is a novel proposition advanced by Horaco Dumars of New York City.
