Heis under a phy- siclan’s care, and 1s liable to stay there in- definitely. His face is an unrecognizable conglomeration of bumps, bruises, outs, gashes and swellings. Both oyes, in deep black and bloodshot surroundings, are on- tirely out of sight, the bridge ot bis noso is broken, his ear busted, under lip torn and jaw fraétured. He is the worst looking specimen that ever left a ring alive. Ryan, on the other hand, shows not even the shude of a mark of mar, and at the close Saturday night was frésher than he was when he entered tho ring. He will re- main tero this mouth, leaving for New Orleans about the first. “ In the meantime a benefit will be tendered him at either the club rooms or tho opera house, and a ton- round go arranged with Artie Flint, the lat- ter ovent to come off at some plice to be here- after mentioned. card from Ryan, OMANA, Aug. 1.—To the Sporting Editor of Tue BEg: | desire to cxpress my' sincero thinks nnd grateful w0 the Omahu Athletio club for the generous and courteous treatment they have shown me during my seven weeks training for Suturday nicht's contest.

Passage of an Ordinance to Regulate Them More Closely T The council last evening met in regular monthly session. The ordinince regulating the salo of liquors was passed. It vrovides that no liquor shall bo sola or given away to minors, Indians, insane persons or idiots, The ordinance also provides that 1t shall be unlawful for any saloon to be kept open on Sunday and on other days tetween midoight and 5 o'clock a. m, This ordinance 1s the result of the apparent opposition of the suloon men to paying the occupation tax, and unless the tax is paid it will ve rigidly en- forcea. The committeo appointed for the purpose of investigating M. O'Hearne's claim for damages done his property by reason of grading Twenty-third street reportea that as uppraisers had been appoin'ed and allowed damages in the sum of $15, they had 0o juris- diction. Another committee ulso reported that T. J. O'Neill _was not entitled to dam- age by water washing under his building on Twenty-sixth street, Autorney Van Dusen roported that the county cominissioners will have their report ready by Saturday of the amount due South Omaha on the road fund, and it will at that time bo turned over to tho treusurer. A specinl ordimance levying taxes and essments for the grading of Twenty-fifth street, from J to (Q streets, was introduced and referred. An ordinance was passed establ! grade upen I street, from Twent ‘Thirty-second streets, The street committee recommended the paving of the alley from M to N streots, be- tweon Twenty-fifth and I wenty-sixth streets, and the report was adopted. The property owners will now desiguate the muterial to bo used in paving the alley and it will be immeaiately paved Mr. Wyman unsteathea his knifeand went after the Metropolitau Street Kaily pany. The company’s line to Albr above grade aud no provisious have been made for street crossinps. A resoln‘ion was d oraering the company to put in stroet crossings. Proposals for grading Twently-second street from M to N street, Twenty-third street trom L to N street and M street from Twen! second to Tweaty*fourth street, were openad and the contract awarded to John E. Owen. The members of the police force asked for a twelve days lay off during the vear with The police committee will investigate, dents near Seventeenth sna O streets declared T. Carnike & uuisance and asked to bave him removed from their midst, Caraiko is a squatter and lives in a shan! on tho str Chief Buckett was instructed to take whatever action he finds necessary. The petition from the saloon men asking that the occupation tax of £200 be reduced was read. The petition was signed by fifty-eight saloonkeepers in the city. In committes of the whole the petition was considered. At- torney Vuu Dusen gave it as his opinion that the ordinance levying the occupation tax was perfectly legal and would be upheld in any court. Mr, Bruce and Mr. Wood spoke at length, and said they could seo no reason for reducing the tax, and as the levying of the tax was a necessity tbey did not feel disposed to take action. Mr. Haley took up the question from the saloon men's standpoint aud wanted the tax reduced to £50 on each saloon, and moved that the ordi- nance be repealed. The motion was lost, Haley and Bowley voting in the affirmative. Mr. Bruce introduced a resolution providing that the city attorney be instructed to amend the occupation tax ordinance fixing the tux on saloons at §200 aud reduce the tax to 8100, this ordivauce lo be possed next Monday evening, providing every saloon- keeper in town pays the $100 mto the y treasury before that date, The intention of Mr, Bruoce's resolu- tion is to prevent any kick being raised by the saloon men after the tax has been re- duced, and unless they all step up to the captain's desk aod settie no reduction will be made and the §200 will be collected. Tho commiltee on streets was wstructed to advertise for bias for the grading of O street, from Fourteenth to Twentieth stroet. The city clerk was instrucled to issue to the registers of the recent :pecial election warrdnts in the sum of § each. LA On Thelr Way West.

OMAHA'S JULY WEATHER, Observer Bassler Tells the Story of the Past Month's Warmt On the 1st of July there was sinco March 1 an excess of rain over the normal in this vicinity amounting to 256 inches. There was therefore a goodly store of moisture in the ground against the possibility of a heated term and uttendant drouth during the month. On the night of the 1st a generous rain fell, increasing the excess of moisture in the soil to 3.40 1nches, The weather during the first ton days of the month was excop- tionally fine, with bright, sunshiny days anc delightfully cool nights. Temperature re- mamed slightly o#ow the normal, the oxcess of moisture being gradually di- minished. From the 1ith to the ISth there were spurts of warm weather, with several light wains, though the seasonal excess of rain with which month started out was now reduced to . an inch, while the deficiency for the month 80 far was already nearly two incties. On the night of the 16th. oceurred a aisplay of aurora borealis, though the display was at no time characterizeq by streamers of much iutensity and the wlole exhibivion attracted but little public atiention. Lt 1s commonly supposed it an aurora presages cool weather, but in this instance it was followed by a hot wave which eracually spread over the whole country and will long be memora- ble for its intensity. . AtOmaha the “‘heated term” began on the ISth, culminated ou the 23d and ended onthe 27th. On the 1Sth the deficiency of ,, temperature for the month in this oty was 75°. By the evening of the . 27th this deliciency had been lessened to 1°. The slowly wncreasing heat. was happily intevrupted on the evening of tng 28t by an intense thunder storm and copious rain with a light full of hail. This storm pepulted in a fall of tem- perature of 30 degues within oas hour, or from 97.52 at b pyim,10 679> at 6 . m., und a depositof rain amounting, to .65 of an inch. This - change - was, hawever, only temporacy. for by $p. m. thameroury was again up io 85> and the night was exceedingly uncom- fortable. The crest of the hot wave was over usoa the 23d, when the average for tLe day was 90> and-the maximum 100>, The weéather now continued hot and dry, en- tailing many discomforts, though very few casualties, until the evening of the 27th, when the seasonai excess of rainfall had en- tirely aisappeared. [Rain was now anxiously tooked for and greatly nesded, As the morning .weather map of the 2ith plainly pointed out, the rehef came in tho form of copious and well distrivuted rains, more welcome than any that occurred in the month of May, and a vory decided reduction n the temperature of the air. The hignest readings of the thermomeler at Omaha during the July bot spell were: 18th, 902 ; 10th, Y525 20th, 972§ 2Ust, 935§ 22d, 932 ; 3d, 100 ; 24th, 952 2 25th, 97= 3 2k, 96 27th, 97>, On the 25th the mercury was not so ambitious and registered only 652, and there was a steady, soaking rain’ which lasted nearly all day and amounted to 1.16 inch. The month ended with another 2ood rain, 50 that August starts in with un excess of moisture and very favorable con- ditions and prospects for the crops. Upon the whole the temperature of the month was normal, bul the rainfall was short. The extremes of temperature were: Highest, 1002 : lowest, 54=. The ‘provailing wind was from tha southeast. There were thirteen cloudless, fifteen partly clonay and three cloudy duys during ihe month and ram fell on ten day The following table will show the charac- ter of the pust monih in respect W tempera- ture and rainfall compared with the Julys of the past twenty-two years: g Ratn.

E. Ford, gen- eral passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines, as arbitvator in the Atchison’s appeal from his rulings. The Atchison took an appeal in two cases. One was from the chairman's decision deny- ing that it was justified in making a $12 rate to Denver and return on account of the Knights Templar conclave. The other was from the ruling and actions of the chairman in his authorizing a one way rate of $12 to Denver and intermediate pomnts and the alleged conspiracy by whicn the Atchison was deprived of its rights under the agree- ment, In both of these appeals to arbitration the Atchison nominated E. A. Ford tor one of the arbitrators and askea the chairman to name his choice for another. The rules pro- vide in such cases that each side shall choose ono arbitrator nxd the two thus chosen shail select the third. The arbitrators are to be disinterested parties, and either side may object to the other’s choic2, if he has good reason to believe that the party is not free from prejuaice. Why He Objected to Ford, After the Atchison had nommated Ford, Chairman Caldwell asked a representative of thut company if it would be mad should he name as his choice a membor of the Western Passenger association, The reply was that i all probability such a nomiuation would not be accepted, as a member of the a sociation would not be a dismterested party, Toe chairman then wroto his replv to the commnuication of Passenzer Trafic Manager Whito, refusing to accept F Ford as an arbitrator on the grounc that ho is an interested party. He explained this by saving that tho Vandaha line, whicn is under Mr. Fora’s jurisdiction and the [lli- nois Central, which is & momber of the Western Pussenger association, each formed a part of the through passenger route botween Chicago and St. Louis, To Save Itsell trom De Tt appears that this letter was delivered at the Atchison ofi.ce after business hours Sat- urday. and did not fall into the hands of the proper officials until toduy. It was then oo late to vominate another urbitrator, as the agreement provides this must be done within five days afier_the decision from which an appeal i3 taken hus been rendered and the specitied time nad expired. Butthe Atchison promptly adopted the only course left to save itself from defeat. It appealed from tne chairman’s objection, too, and his refusal to ept Mr. Kord as an arbitrator. Official notuification of this appeal was sent. to Chair man Caldwell and the members of the Atchi son by Passenger Traffic Manager White, who offered as his choice of arbitrators in this case, £. C. Dawald, vice president of the Central I'raflic association. In his com- munication, Mr. Whuite contends that the chairman’s objection to Mr. Ford as an arvi- trator is mot only utterly groundless, but mado for the purpose of harassing and an- noying the Atchison. Daty of the Chairman. He further says: “It being the duty of the chairman, as a just judge of controversies belween the members of tha association, to hold the sceles of justice, ho prostituted ' his oftice to that of & mere partisan to_effectunte the sinister purpose of the majority of the members of the association to the injury of a minority.” The Atchison officials are confident this appeal will result in their favor, whoover 15 selected as arvitrators. Some of Chair- man Culawell's friends aro afraid that he unnccessurily nggravated the situation in objecting to Ford as an_arbitrator and are of the opinion that no board of arbitration will sustain his objection. ‘The controversy has now reached a stage that is regarded us sori- ous, aud only a change of tactics on the part of Some of those who have been fauning the flames will save the Western Passenger assoclation from disruption. e ALMOST A RIOT, eat.
