No one grumbled because a seat in the parquet or dress circle had no been re- served for him, but everyone appeared to be satisfied if he could find fidor room enough 1o put one foot upon. 1t was tho opening moeting of the new council, and that fact alone would have been sufficient to crowd the room. But when the added at- traction of o ‘“scrap’ between tho two men who clmm to bo aldermen from the IMifth ward was promised the cagerness to got In became something tre- mendous, It bad been expected that Lob- hart and his attorneys would be present and make n formal demana that Smith's chair be turned over to him, und such indeed had been thelr plan until within twenty-four hours before, but those who looked for any- thing of this kind were doomed to disap- pointment, as no move of tho kind was made or even hinted at, although Lobhart, his at torneys and friends were there en masso. At 8 o'clock the meeting was called toorder by ex-Mayor Macrae, who proceeded at ouce 10 the reading of his parting address as ol lows rtiemen—I have the honor to prosent 10 you the annual report of the diffcrent de- partments of the city of Council Bluffs, Ia., as compifed and presented by the heads of said departments, and I cougratulate you upon the favorable showing as set forth in d reports as hereto attached.” The report of the city solicitor is short, but the gist of it is as follo Juden.ents against the ity when tue solicitor assumed the duties of the oftice, 9,00 , money in the treasury and judgments paid during my rm of office, #0,062.75; thus making the judiciary department virtually out of debt. The roport of the city physician shows that the death rato is only O in 1,000, ak- ing us ono of the healthiest, if not the healthiest city in the United States. Heretofore croup, diphtheria and like con- tagious diseases have been responsible for the majority of deaths here, but careful quar- antine and strict injunctions to parties iu- volved have reduced the mortality to the present low standard. Tho report of the chief of police presents for consideration certain points which he makes in connection therewith. They in- clude the following: First, The large de- crease of arrests during his term of office. Second, The increase of receipts for city crime, and the large increase of days’ work done by prisoners on the streots. The report of the city engincer shows an cnormous amount of necessary work done by his department, most important of whicn is the work dcne in completing the sewerago system of the city. The sewers of the city have been thoroughly cleaned and purified, Indian creck has been deepened and straightened to the city limits and an outlet has been con- structed to the Missouri river outside of the city limits, This undertaking cost a large sum of money, but tho resultsn increased healthfulness and tbe purity of homes and surroundings will repay the cost which has been eutirely liquidated. The finances of the city are in a sound condition as wiil be seen by a perusal of the reports of the city clerk, auditor and treas- urer. The receipts for city crime have been extraordinarily large, & sum approximating $40,000 being received within the last two years for fines, licenses, etc., of which amount the taxpayer has had to pay no por- tion, The bonded indebtedness has been reduced within the last two years $52,000 over and above the amounts expended for sewerage, bricks, paviug, deepening Indian crock, grad: ing, etc The mayor continuing, said: “I am sorry to remind you that f'airmount park is still in litigation. * It seems to me that in order to estop the largo drain of money required to keep these suits in court that & colnpromise should vo effected between tio park com- missioners, the city council and the parties in suit, which would forever settle the title to our beautiful park aud stop the constant demand for means to carry on these suits, “In conclusion, gentlemen, allow me to thank you for the uniform courtesy you have extended to me, and in taking leave of you I can honestly say that I have nothing but pleasant remembrances of my intercourse with you during my term of oftice as mayor of the city of Council Bluffs.” Mayor Lawrenco then took the chair and tho regular business was proceeded with without any further formalities.

Fireand Lights—Pace, Smith, Brown, Police aud Health --Brown, Van Brunt, Water Works—Graves, Jennings, Smith, The bonds of the incoming officers were read and approved and the reports of the outgoing ofticers read, Among them was the reportof tho city marshal, which contains some interesting figures. ho number of ar- rests during the past yearwas: Males, 1,400; females, 7:3; 452 lodgers have been furnished with quarters; the expenses of tho depart- ment, ipcluding tho salaries of deputics, bas been ¥,552.60: the amount of fines paid over by the marshil has been $4,346.62, In his re- port the marshal suggests that the jail be enlarged, as it has been too small to accomn- modate the number of prisoners that have been on hand almost constantly. A fair idea of what may bo looked for the future was obtained when a ballot was taken for the ofiice of presidgent of the coun- cil. VauBrunt nominated Smith and Graves nominated Brown. The republicaus ail voted for Smith and the democrats for Brown. The cousequence was a tie. The same kind of a thing took place in the bal- loting for clerk. mith nominated A, J, Stephenson and Graves C. J, Lange, The republicaus voted for Stephen- son and threo of the democrats for Lange, while Geise flew the democratic irack apd cast bis vote for R.S. Rawlings, Two votes were taken with the same result, and it was decided to lay the matter of ap- pointing ofticers over until the next meeting.

Judge McGee bandea down an important decision vesterday in the superior court with referonce to the Omabha and Council Bluffs Bridge companv and the paving be- tween its tracks, which has already caused 80 _much litigation. Threo suits werede- cided, oneof which was that brought by C. Bixby to enjoin the company from ning its_ trains over South [%ivst street. all the litigation over the question who shull pay for the paving between the tracks tho compauy has claimed to be operating under the charter granted to the Council Bluffs Street Raillway company in 1868, in which there was no stipulation as to paving between the tracks. At thesame time it claimed to have all the privileges granted by the new charter of 1836, The suit was brought for the purpose of compelling the company to decide under which charter it is really runuing. Judge McGee in his decision held ihat if, as was claimed by the defendants, the chas ter of 1868 was the one in force, the company had no right to run on First street, and an application for an 1injunction would be granted. He was inclined to favor it so far as possible, however, and accordingly allowed until Wodnesday for it to como in and amend its pleadings and admit that it was running under the 1886 ctarter. The writ of injunc- tion is, therefore, withheld unul that time, when, if the amendment is made, the injunc- tion will probably be refused. The property owners will gev what they aro after, how- ever, as the company will have to stop run- ning on First street or else agree to run under the 1886 charter, which compels them to pave between the tracks. Tho case will prebably be appealed to the suprema court, however, as thare have been s mumber of conflicting opinions rendered in the various states on the points raised. The cases of Crossland against the oridge company and Everett against the bridge com- pany were also decided, the court holaing that the company was liable for the cost of the puving between the tracks, the value of the paving at the time the tracks were Iaid being the measure of damages to be paid to the property owners, The caso was leftopen 5o as to allow the question of the value of the paving to be decided. This will be done in the course of & very few days, linery Removal. Misses Sprink & Fearon have removed their millincry parlors from Broadway 1o 19 South Main st. —— Taving Plerce Street. Biurrs, In., Mareh 21,—To the Jiditor of Tue Bee: Tte article in Tug Sv DAY BEE referring to my withdrawing a pe- tition for paving Pierce street, etc., leads the public to believe that the incoming couneil was not capable of ordering a street paved unless I was in it. 1 would like to say a few words 1n explauation. My opinion is that the city counecil will attend to the business of the city just the samo as it I wasn’t in exist- coce. Now as to the petition; we have two- thiras of the abutting property owners sign- g in favor of paving Pierce street, and the only reason that the council has for not or- dering it payea is a little triangulur piece of ground 550 feet long. ‘The selling price of this probavly, at the present time, wouldn't more than pay balf of the abuttiug paviog, I wish to state that this strip of paving is o fraction over eight blocks. In that eight blocks there is at the present time but one- half ioterseetion. By this you can plainly seo0 that the city cannot pave the street for less money than it can at the present t:me. My object in tuking out the petition was to circulate it through the city ard get the en- dorsement of large taxpayers who are inter- ested in the city aud its public thorough- fares that lead to it, and who kuow that that part of Pierce street is one of the heaviest thoroughfares leuding into tho city. The city in general would roceive more ben- efit than from any other strip of paving in the city. It is my bslief that had 1 sub- mitted to the Seventh ward political scheme the street would have been ordered paved. The same council that refused to pave Iierce street ordered I'rank street paved up into Morning Side, and that street included 900 feet of parking, for which the city will haye to pay. It is my belief ihat over 2,000 velicles pass oniPierce street to one on Frank street. Morning Side is high and dry, and Pierce street is low and swampy. 1 have a great many names signed and 1 in- tend to cull on @ great mauy more. Yours, respectfully, L. A.
