Chaffee announced that he would leave tho city yesterday and would not be able to pass upon the papers until his return, During the afternoon a call for a special meeting was issued and signed by several of the members calling for a cial meet- fng last night. Those did not sign the cull would have known nothing about the meoting, had they not road NING F It 50 hao- ‘meeting was called to e in Tue E t when the tho noti pened th order, Mossrs, Blumer, Burdish Coover, Conway, Davis, Elsasser, Mudsen, Mclear Morearty, Osthoff and Presideut Lowry ¢ present. 4 for the Face. Mr. Osthofi was tho first speaer. Ho meuved that the council go into committee of tho wholo aud that the evidence in the furni- ture boodle cuse bo read. President Lowry had some doubts about the motion being in order. The papers weroc iu the hands of the committeo and ho did not thinic the case could bo considered until a report had been submitted to the council, Mr. Osthoff replied that ho had the papers and wus ready to report. Suiting the action to the word, he started toward the clerk’'s desk, bearing the papers and the wmajority report. The moticn to go into committee of the wholo was never put to tho nouse, as Mr. Morearty saw a chance to shp in a wedgo fnd at once moved that the motion by which the minority of the committee was givon week’s timé in which to report be rescinded. ‘That brought on any amount of redhot ora- tory, with Mr. Conway leading off. He satd that'Mr. Cuaffeo had been trying to do somo funny work. Mr. Chaffee, ho said, had stated that he was going out of the city. He had N0t gone, and the inaications were that ho wanted 1o keep the public looking at some councilmen, thinkiug that they wero thieves ana rascals, Mr. Davis charged bad faith. When he pigned the call he supposed the meeding was for the purpose of transucting business, and not taking a snap iudgment with barely a quorum present. 1t was a fair and horiest understauding that the matter was to go over for two weeks, and ne did not_propose to be & party to the proposed whitewash. Tho minority of the committes had not been given an opportunity of seeing tho papers, B0d to adopt the majority report meant no wvindication of any person, Forcing the Fight. “Roconsider and adopt the majority report f you want to, gentlemen,” said Mr. Davis. “You have the votes, but I ask you, can you afford to do thist Can you afford to have the fuformation go to the public thatafter spend- fng woeks in taking testimony vou have rail- roaded the verdict !’ Mr. Chuffee remarked that a large number of the members ot the council had bzen men- tioned in connection with the investigation, and he doubted if they couid afford to have whitewash spread over the whole mattor, Mr. Osthoff replied that there was no in- tention upon his tof whitewashing any person or railronding any report. The mi- pority should have beeu ready with its re- yort. Mr. Chaffeo, in answering, said that he had been unable to obtain the papers in order to make a repor Mr, Davis stated that it was in the inter- estof the councilmen who had been charged with guilt and found innocent that ho wanted tho minority to have time in which to make its report. Mr. Morearty felt that the remark had touched his honor and integrity aud informed the council that ho feared noihing that had appeared in evidence, Threa members of the committeo had found time to make upa majority report aud he saw no reason why two could not have done likewiso. The trouble was the two members had not seen fit to perform tho duty that had been as- signed to them. Mr. sser said that after the action taken Tuesday night, the granting Mr. Chaffee two weoks’ time, ho could tover vote to reconsider tho vote. He thought that each member should have the testimony for at least. twenty-four hours, but it was evi- dent that Mr. Ciaffee had never had the tes- timony in his hands. asser’s Cross Counter. “Look at this,” he said, “if we go on and adopt the majority report, twenty years henco men will look buck and say:™ ‘Ta an {nvestigation neld there wore two membors of that committee said the men wore not cleared of the charge.’ “No, 8 at this time I will tho majority report. Mr. Chaffee uxplrllncrl why he had re- mained in the city, It was simply a business matter, but he would leave today aad be ab- Bont ton days or two Weoks. Mr. Mcliearie explained some things that happened in the committee room. Mr. Chaf- fee nud asked for the evidence, but had boon rofused. Tho minority of the committee had not been allowed to see tho testimony. Chairman Tuttle had made a report, but 1t was not in accordance with the evidence, nor with the facts. The report aid not suit Mr. McLeario, who s0 1uformed Mr. Tuttle, who made another report. That one, like the the fivst, was not based upon the evidence subwitted. 1n fact it did not touch upon the matters testified to, and to adopt it would be making a farce, the biggest kind of a farce, of the whole affarr, That was vot what the pooplo wanted. President Lowry walked down upon the floor of the house nad spoke & few words that haa a sulphuric ring while Mr. Cooper held the chair. Short Arm Work by Lowry. There were members before him who toolk tho oath of ofice. They had solemuly sworn 10 be truo to their constitucnts, houest ard fair with all men, These same men, or at least one of them, had been upon the witness stand and had there testified that Colonel Reemer, the agent of the Andrews company, had told hum that he could have $00 if he would vote 5o and so. “Now, eentlomen,” continued the presi- dent, *‘that councilman eitherlied when he took his oath of ofice, elso he did when he went upon the witness stand. “‘Ihere is more to this,” and the presi- dent pointed ms tinger at Mr. Blumer. *Phe man I refer to locked the secret of tha attempted bribe in his breast and allowed five or six of us to vote for the Chicago con- corn. Again I say the man led when he took his outh of office, else ho lied when he went upon the witness stand,” Mr. Lowry was not in favor of railroading anything, bit the iarce—tho d—d farce, he saia—had gone far enough. He saw but one way out, and that was for Mr. Davis to take Mr. Chaffeo’s place on the committee, The whole investigation, he opined, was a politi- cal soheme from begiuning to end. If there was any crookedness, it was upon the part of the home people, aud one member who haa peddled figures upon the streets. Heo aid not thiuk any wonoy had been used in securing votes, but had he known what he learned later on he would have voted for the Ketcham company. Mr, Hayken, so Mr. Lowry said, bad told bim that a man on Tuk Ber, & reporter, had wanted 10 interest himself in the matter and bad wanted to get on the wnside. Blumer Over the Ropes. Mr, Chaffeo did not want to shiold any not vote for THE. OMAHA DAILY BEE, THURSDAY. DECEMBER 3, 1801, b nor did he consider the investigation & farce. It was too importaat a matter to treat to a coat of whitowash, The time had come when councilmen should protect themselves It bad reached a point when old men and women, chiliren and girls upon the stroet looked upon councilmen as boodiers. This was largely duo to the fact that an attempt wus made to whitewash every investigation Mr, Osthoff asked if Mr. Davis would serve in Mr. Chaffee's stoad and report tonight Mer. Blumer stated that he had listened to considerable discussion and fancied that some of the talk was intended for him Mr. Davis replied that possibly it was Bilumer had sat silently by and had allowed men to vote for the Andrews contract with- out notifying them that Colonel Iteemer was around with a bribe. Mr, Davis denied that tho investigation was a political scheme, Thore had been no politics in it. It was folly, hie said, to talk about meeting tonight, as the evidence could not be read in one “Take until Saturday night, then, marked Mr. Morearty.

Brnxr, Dec. 2.—A terrible aceident hap- pened yesterday owing to the uncontrollable passion of a man who so allowed his temper to overmaster hiim that he became a voritablo maniac and wilfully sacrificed the lives of two of his follow workmen and a number of other persons. Tho news of tho startling af- fair, as received here, is to the effect that an engineer employed on the raiiway line run- ning bevween Aargau, a canton of Switzer- land, and Waldshut, a town of Baden, on tho Rhine, had committed some 1nfraction of the rules of the road and, after an oxamination into the matter by the officials of the com- pany, ho was uotified of his dismissal from the service. When informed of the action of his super- fors the enginoor became 1nfuriated. Watch- ing for & favorable opportunity, the engineer entered the cab of a locomotive and opening tho throttlo of the cngino as wido as possi- ble, he jumped from the cab and let the loco- motivo dash down the track at full spoed, just as a train loaded with passengers camo rushing from the opposite direction on the same track. The runaway wild locomotive and tho loco- motive of the passengor train plunged mto oach otherwith awful force, both engines being entirely wrecked and filliug the track with a mass of dobris. Tho engineer and fireraan of the passenger train had no warning of the terrible fate in store for them and were only aware of their great danger when 1o late to mako any of- fortto save their lives. Both men wero caught in the wreeks of the engines and wero instaatly killed,their bodies being frightfully crushed and mangled. Tho passenzers on the train wero flung in all directions by tue terrible shock of the collision. Throe of them waro fatully injured and nearly all were bruised by the collision, The greatest excitement was sed by tho aceident. Gessler's Magic ol cne \Wafors.Cures a beudochesin 20 minutes.
