DEATI'S HEAD AT THE FEAST. President Lowry D’im: Attontion of His Demooratic Brothren to Their Doom. PUTTING ON THE GLOVES OVER WATER. Council Decides to Tap the Oity Mains Despite the Company's Protest ~Pay for Registrars— Other Matters, President held last The council got the Lowry night. Last January when tho council was organ- §z0d the republicans were not 1 it to any groat oxtent. Mr., Chaffeo was appointed chairman of the committeo on rules. Mr. Davis coptured the chairmanship of the com mitteo on plats and additions. Since that date, while roports of othor committess have been transmitted to the council for approval or rejection, these gentlomen havo sat quietly by and liste Last nightas the committess were called, in due time, President Lowry remarked, “‘Has the committes on rules any report?’ Yone, Mr. President,” responded Mr. Chaffeo, “*Has the committee on plats and additions any report?” “Noue, Mr, Davls. The other fourteen members laughed, and then President Lowry remarked, “U'll bo witlr you after the first of the year." “It does look that way, Tom," answered Mr. Davis and then the members laughed again. laugh on atsthe regular meeting President,” answered Mr. One Poll Book Missing. The council expected to recoive the report of the canvassing board, but it was not forth- counng. In going through the returns from various preciucts” the board had discovered that the poll book of the Second dis trict of the Eighth ward had not been returned to the city clerk, The sargeant-at-arms had boen to the home of J. W. Furnas, one of the Judges, and that gentieman had informed him that ho kunew nothiug about the book, that ho had veturned ail bouks und blanks that he had received. City Clerk Groves stated that in the mat- ter of Uhe districy referred to the judgo had returned to him the poll book of the Board of Education, but the city poll book was no- ‘where to be found. Messrs. Bruuner and investigate and locate the book. ‘With that understanding the council concluded to sit at 4 o'clock this after- 100 to hiear the report of tho canvassing board. Tho returns of the eighty-soeven dis tricts canvussed were not footed, but when completed the result will show practically the sawe figures us were published in Tuk Bee soveral days ago. Given Their First Lesson, Councilmen-clect Prince, Edwards and Bteele sat in the lobby as silont witnesses to the procecdings, Mr. Elsasser saw them and at once moved that they be invited within the rail. The motion prevailed and the gentlemon were provided with chairs avd for several hours they looked and listened. By resolution the city attorney was iu- structed to confess judgment in favor of Emily R. Whitlock for the sum of $2,650. T'he judgment settles the question of vhe pay- mont for a tract of land in the vicinity of Twenty-ninth and Farnam streets. The land in question was taken for the purpose of opening a street. Chairman Birkhauser of the Board of Public Works informed the council that tho water works company refused to tap tho water mains in sctreets where the contracts for making connections had been awarded. He said the company refused to even iet tue contractor tap the mains aud make the con- noctions. Mr. Osthoff wanted a committee of three appointed to confer with the water works company. Mz, Davis sala there was no conference necessary. The time had come when the city should declared itselt and find out whether the water works company or the peovle owned the cit; Mr. Chuffee stated that a machine for tap- ing mains could be purchased tor $100, and f bought the contractor could do the work, Mr. Davis offered an_amendment that the comptroiler purchase the machine and that the contractor be instructed to do his duty. Mr. Cooper speke in favor of the amend- ment and declared _that it was time that the city should assert its rights. The amendment carried, all of the sixteen members voting “yea.” City Engineer Till%n called the attention of the council to the fact that thore was a largo amount of work for the board of equal- fzation to transact. Ho said that under the new system there would huve to bo now no- tices servea and pubiished. He asked for in- structions. Upon motion Messrs. Davis, Donnelly and Mocearty wero appointed u committee to con- fer with Engincer Tilison relative to the plan to be pursued, Fay for the Roegistrars, The reglstrars who sat prior to the recent oity election presented a communication, asking what they wore to be paid for their services, Mr. Morearty said that last year they wero baid §0 each, and he saw no rea- sou why they should not be poid the samo this year. Ihe men had served five days each. Mr. Davis was of the opinion ‘would be too much. Mr. Specht thought that if they were paid $5 each they would be satistied. Mr. Conway wanted the wen paid at loast 0 por doy, as they had earned their money. Mr. Tuttle had figured tho bills under the eight bour law and had found that the extra time would amount to 85,910, Mr. Bruner said the law provided that rogistrars should be paid 5 per day. If they sorved six days ho saw no reason why they ould bo paid double what tho luw provided for. It was at last decided to allow the rogis- trars not to exceed 30 Aach. The comptroller was authorized to adver- tise for ds for furmishing the city with lumber, stationery, horse feod, printing, books, advertising and lithographing during the ensuing year, To Store Election Booths. There were two bids for constructing a shod in which to store the electiou booths at Lleventh and Nicholas streets. J. A. Kuowles bid #352,5 and William Rice $440. Mr. Cooper moved to award the contract to the lower bidder, Mr. Osthioff said .that the Metropohtan Street railway contemplated holding an elec- tion and why not wait until it was decided 10 hold that election. Mr. Elsasser urgoed that there had been no advertisement inserted, asking for bids. He wever heard of such & way of lotting a cou- tract. Mr. Cooper withdrew his motion, after which Mr. Davis moved that the comptroller advertise five days for bids for removing tho booths to the city's lot on Eleventh and Nicholas streets, where a building for their storage will be erected. ‘e motion pro- wvailed. Pat O'Horne, who served under the direc- tion of the Board of Public Works as an in- speotor, asked for twenty-one days’ pay. He had been uischarged without cause. ‘The people residing at the west end of the Farnam stroot car line asked that tho iron booth at Forty-first and Farnam stredts be left during the winter as a waiting room. Mr. Ostooff was in a bad bumor. He said that he did not propose that the eity furnish booths for hen ocoops and wood sheds. It the Stroet Railway company wanted depot, it should build one. Mr. Davis said the taxpayers paid for the booths and they should have some rights. Mr. Chaffee thought that it was a bad precedent Lo establish, Mr, Olson said that it was not granting the railway company a favor, but the residents of tho western part of the city, Mr. Cooper was of theopinion that it would be a great accommadation o the peoplo wost of Fortieth street, he wotion to allow the booth to be used 88 a waitiog room was lald on the table, Are or Incand cscent.

Obicago Will Have Steamors to Shelter World's Fair Visitors. MANY MAY THUS BE ACCOMMODATED. After the Fair the Fleet Be Usea in will Connection With a Pleasure Resort Similar to Coney Island. A company with $1,000,000 to inves, pro- poses to put five big steamers, fitted up as hotels, to hanale pussengers from the lake front to the World's fair by day and to fur- nish sleeping quarters for the multitude by aight. B. D. Comings, formerly of St. Paul, 15 at the head of the plan and says he can handle 17,000 passengers an hour with his steamors, It is estimated that 7,500 peoplo cas fiod hotel accommodations on the big take fleet. After the exposition closes the fleet is to be used in connection with a great pleasure resort, patterned after Coney island. Tomorrow, in all probability, the depart- ment of installation of the exposition will go out of existence, The dopartment was created at the special requestof Director General Davis and that centleman has de fended it to the bestof his ability down to the presont time, and his defense was neces- sary. From the first certain directors thought Mr. Davis ought to actasan in- stallation department himself, thereby saving the expens o of maiutaining an extra dopart- ment. It has been probably definitely decided by the director general und the awards commit- tee that the total number of judges must bo kept under 500. These judges, or jurors, will _be divided into about 175 groups. Most of the juries will be made up of from three to five' judges, of whom, wherover it is practicable, one shall be a womau and one a foreigner. Director General Davis, Chief Allison and others will have a conference today with represontatives of tho poltery interests of the United States. If suitable space can be spared they propose to erect buildings in which to illustrate the rapid upward growth and present perfoction of American pottery making. They want to dissipate the popular idea that American potters aro loss skillful than their competitors in other countries. The manufacturers interested represent a working capital of $0,000,000 and they say the business is increasini as rapidly as any other lino of industry in this country. FIFTY CENT PICTURES DON'T GO. Captain Porter of the secret servico yes- terday made the rounds of the newspapers in search of cuts of the newly designed half dollar. Captain Porter did not find any, the cuts having been destroyed, but he says the use of these cuts in newspaper columns is a violation of the law agaiust counterfeiting, and any publisher using them is likely to get into trouble. THEY WELCOMED ABERDEEN, The carl and countess of Aberdeen arrived in the city vestorday. Last evening a dele- gation from tho Highland association of Iili- nois called onthe distinguished. persons and presented them with an address, also tender- ing the earl an honorary chieftainship in the association. The eurl replied briefly, ex- pressing his delight at the unexpected greet- ing. Ho thought, ho sald, that every obpor- tunity should be taken to foster anything that might draw closer together the kith and kin of the Anglo-Saxon race and ho felt that the socioty is fostering thut spirit. FREIGHT CAR FAMINE TUREATENED, A freight car famine is again threatenea on the western roads, the lull which took place in grain shipments from the west dur- ng the greater part of October Laving ngain given place to groat activity and all the roads find it difficult to send forward all the freight offered them as fast as they receive it. Tho gross earnings of each road are now soiely dependent upon its ability to take care of tho business, and this state of affairs is expected to continue for many months to come. Should anything unusual occur to interfere with the running arrangements of any of tho ronds a blockade of its lines would be the inevitable result, aud tho probabilities are that orders would have to be issued to refuse all freight offered until the blockade could be :aised. WIHISKEY TRUST SCHEMES, The Whiskey trust has completed its ex- periments with the much talked of Takamine process of distillation in the making of whiskoy, and next week at Peoria an en tirely new plant with all the necessary ma- chinory for distilling liquor by the Taka- mine method will be put in operation and as rapidly as possiblo the new process will be extended to the other trust distilleries. Tho trust controls the secret of this Japaneso method of distillation and with it in full operation the trust will be complote master of the whiskey trade, as Takamine has demonstrated in his experiments _that spirits by his methods can be made 20 per cent cheaper than in the old way. It is also said the Japanese chemist, Takamine, has made further experiments with his process and has demonstrated that it can be successfully ed in the making of veer, ale and other similar iquors, and that the process in timo would revolutionizo the present methods of distilling. BISHOP MERRILL'S CONDITION, Bishop Stephen M. Merrili, the widely known Methodist Episcopal divine whose serious physical condition nocessitated b is being taken to the Wesley hospital for treat- ment, 1s somewhat better today. Soon after his arvival at tho hospital Bishop Morrill was taken with a sovere chill, which was followed by a fever, his temperature registocing 103, During tho night his tomperature lowered to 101 and the hospital attendants ave euconr- aged. 1tis foared that Bishop Morrilt i3 suf- foring from a tumor in the right side of his abdomen.

The sermon preachsd by Bishop Scannall last Sunday bas created quite a sensation among members of his church as well as among Protestants. in cloting his effort, the bishop said tho gospel he had read réminded him of recent events in this city. Hé referred esvecially to the anti-Catholic movement which had givan Catholics of Umalia so much concern the past few weeks, He did not, he said, refer to the matter for the purpose of vindi- cating the church agast calumuious attacks. 1t was unnecessary to do so because he sup- posed nobody believed them excent persons who were 8o ignorantor fanatical that no vindication however complote coula be expected to wmake an impression on their minds. Attacks of that kind were as old as the church. The very fouuder of the Christian roligion was himself the object of them. He was accused of being disioyal, a deceiver of the people and a malefactor, and as such suffored on the cross, The lifo of the church must ve like tho life of her divino founder. Christ had told his apostles that the world would hate them, but said tho Savior, “It hated me before you.” If they had beor of the world, the worid would havo loved its own. But as they were not of the world, therefora the world hated them. Christ had also told hus apostles to have confidence, becauso ho had overcomo the world. Therefore, Catholics could always, meet calumnious attucks on their religion, not only with pat but with confidence, Such attacks heiped the cause of truo religion. For a while tho pubiic might be confused by thenoisy clamor of the enemies of the church, but truth was nd in the end would prevail. Catho- might therefore safely lsave such at- s to tho intelligence, good sense and spirit of fair play which so eminently char- acterize the American people, T'he bishiop's object in speaking of the mat- ter was, he said, to point out to Cateholics tho obligation which the moral law imposed on them with regard to their duties as citi- zens, To vote for a candidate for oftice was. a moral act, for which a man would be as ac- countable as for any other deliberative act. In discharge of the duty they were bound to have rogard for the welfaro of the nation or the state or the community, astho case might bo. They should therefore consider whether the candidates were fit for the posi- tions to whizh they aspired, and whether the policy they advocated would be condu- cive to the public welfare. No doubt, politi- cal parties wero necessary to insure s wood and honest government, but in municipal elections it was rarely necessary to consider more than the fithess of tho candioates themselves. To vote, therefore, for a candi- date who was nota good citizen and an houest man, who might, per- haps, bo ' notoriously unfit for a position of trust, simply becauso ko was a German or un Irishman or because he belonged toa cortain political party would be an immoral act and would bo asin, It was notorious that many of tho city governments in the United us were cor- rupt and in too many cases Catholics could not bo held blameless for that state of uffairs, for in too many cases they allowed them- selves to be led by imnosters who proclaimed themselves Catholics while they were so only in name or only at eiection time. 1t was true the Catholic church should not be heid responsible for the actions of such men, but those who were not Catholics could not always be expected to distinguish between men and the religion they professed. Anti-Catholic movements originating in causes of this kind might do havm to relizion ana for this harm Catholics had themselves to blame, The bishop also said that it was absurd that Catholics should be tied to any one polit- ical party. They should, on tho contrary, be to some extent independent and should con- sider men and the principles they represented rather than the party to which they belonged. It Catholics were good citizens, were iaith- ful to the voice of conscience, obedient to the teachiug of their holy religion, they would have nothing to fear from the unjust assaults of those who nated the Catholic religion and who hated it because they were iguorant of its doctrines. e Are you a cruel man, or only a chump- Your horse has chafed his neck until it is » solutely cruel to make him work, or he has _cut himsolf on a wire or a nail.

The prisoner said he had not been engaged in tho busivess of selling liquor to any body MeCarthy's personal appearance weighed heaviiy against him. Ho had an_ill-shaped head and a face resembling that of the giasticuticuses which make the new city ball look hidoous.

As a consequence of this_ the puint of his nasal appendago stood out from his face like a knoton a bl thorn stick, giving his face a puggish expre: sion. Judge Dundy asked tho prisoner soveral questions about his guilt and avout the board he had been getting in tho county jail Ho then instructed tho jury to simply sign the vordict of guilty., Tho judge then smd: shall remand you to the custody of the marshal for one week and fine you §1_and cost of prosecution.
