About a year ago an ordinance was referred to the judiciary pro- viding for a regulation of the rates of motor trains, It was kept by the committee for about twelve months without making re port. At last, after one life had been sacri d and five or six people seriously in red, another ordinance making the re- quired regulations was put up to be looked at and, if the people kick hard enough, to be passed. It has been on the tapis since June i and sidetracked from time to time, Tt is now understood that the case will come up next on August Alderman Smith is quoted o he does not intend to be used s a club for forcing the motor company into a tight Place, and itis to be presumed that he was acting in the capacity of sclf-appointed pr teetor of the company when he as sisted the other member of the committce in shelving the ordinance for so long.

The long standing controversy between some of the big agricultural implement houses on South Mamn strect and the city council has reachea a point whero the urgent de mands of the implement dealers cannot Do longer ignored. Neither the members of the present council or the citizens can afford to have the complaints of these vig Hou ignored, especially since the agricultural implement district is to be further enlarged by the building of several other large buiidings and the addition of several more of the largest implemoent firms in the world. ‘The complaint is the condi- tion of the puving on the last block of tho street.

This Jeft the water standing on” a_level with the bing all along the front of D Wells & Co's. warehouse. Mr. Wells, by his usual spirited protests, succeeded in getting he error parually corrected, but only par- tially, and for the past eight years s com- pany has been a constant sufferer, Ivery rain storm has aged them to the extent of hundreds of dollars, ageregating during the years an amount many times larzer than the value of the paving. The basement of their entire main building can only be used at certuin seasons of the year when it is reasonably certain that no rains will occur. At the present time the lower end of the street is about six inches nigher than tho surface of the paving along the frontof their -building, and every little shower that causes water to flow in the gutters fills the street to the level of the curbing and there it re- mains until it slowly souks away, under- mining the bullding and making its way into the basement. Mr. Wells was sadly surveying the ava- lanche of mud yesterday afternoon that the rain of the early morning had carried down and deposited “in front of his building. ““‘We were the pioneer implement house on the street,” said he to a B reporter, “and if we had ‘not located here it is doubtful it any of these other big buildings would have been erccted, We came here at an early day, asked no bonus or assisi- ance of any kind from the city, vought our grounds, put up our buildings and have paid vromptly every kind of tax that has been assessed agaifst us. and yet almost every request we have made of the council for neces; and just protection has been refused and often ignored. It is dificult to understand why this is s0 and why we should be required to suffer the consequences of the g ror of a city engin who tried oft- repeated experiment in this of making water run up hill® It would " cost but little—only a small proportion of the loss we have been com- pelled to stand—to take up that one block of paving and lower it enough to permit the water 1o escape. The time has now come when the city must do something to give us relief.” It is quite probable that the ecarncst pro- tost of Mr. Wells will be taken up by other large implement houses und the city will be Induced to give the reliéf demaaded, Grent Reduction Our company, having a large supply of red cedar in their yards in Avkansas, have concluded to greatly reduco the on red cedar for the next 60 days, is your time to get red cedar cheap.

Feos of tho Tax Collector, At & meeting of the city council Monday evening one of the items of business to be \ransacted was to receive the report of the #ity clerk with reference to the poll tax col- ector's fecs. By ordiuance he is allowed 10 per cent of all moneys collected. but the city clerk took the responsibility of allowing him to keepi§20 per cent out of his collections. It was only & short time ago that the council instructed the city attorne; to compel this same poll-tax _collector to re fund to the city half of the 20 per cent which he retained when he made hiy last re- port. The question was naturally suggested 10 those who were there,what kind of a “‘pull” the collector had with the aldermen that allows him to transgress the plain provisions of the ordinances that take money out of the city treasury to which he has no right what- ever. The report was referred to the finance committee, but as no objection was made tho presumbtion is that the bill is to be allowed to slide through, law or no law.

The gamblers who were allowed to ply their avocations open and above board through an arrangement by which they were to pay into the city treasurer §0a month, fell over each other getting to the front with their “donations™ the first month, but it was for the fivst month only. There were five at first, und one additional has opened out since S0 far this month only three men have paid their *“donation,” but allof the houses are running just the same. It is a fine that can- not be collected by law, and the gamblers are no doubt taking advantage of this fact. Some of the councilmen are so conscientious that they will mot lay any claim to this money at all. City Treasurer Hoctor says that it goes into the general fund, The school board is of the opinion that it should go into the school fund, and, while the merry wrangle is going on, faro, stud, roulette and other games of chance are busy night and day without liquidation for the privilege.

Republicans Will Biring the Matter Up in Congress Early, WASHINGTON, July 18.—It is reported here that Congressman Burrows of Michigan will introduce a resolution into the house assoon as the session is fairly opento investigate the present workings of the pension office, with t lar referenco to the legality of cer- n orders which have been made by Seerctary Smith and put into exeeution by Commiissioner Lochren. It is under: stood that Mr., Burrow akes the same view of the action of the com- sioner of pensions, in suspending pen- sions under the uct of 1890, that General Alger did in an interview in New York a few days ago. He claims that after a soldier has been examined in the legal way and his pension granted, the com- missioner has no right to suspend him from the rolls and reduce his pension, or compel him to be re-examined and go through the form of again qualifying to draw a pension, The republicans hope to develop politi- cal capital from an investigation of the present democratic policy of dealing with the pensioners, and most of them will support the Burrows resolution. e o Fireworks, balloon ascension and par- achute jump, Courtland beach tomorrow night. : tata ok Y BRAVE WOMAN, COWARDLY MEN, Alliance Meeting Broken Up by a Mob and the Male Attendauts Flee, LrrTLE ROCK, July 18.—A largely at- tended meeting of the Pope county alli- ance at Cove, Ark.. was broken up by a mob and rain storm of bullets fired ov the heads of the crowd.

Every man in the crowd stampeded. Mrs. Ida Duncan, however, had the presence of mind to mount a box and call to the flecing men to stand their ground, even in the face of death. But the men kept on running, leaving the woman to hold the fort alone. James Webb was hit in the eye with a stone. he leaders had been warned not to hold the meeting, Etforts are being made to arrest the assailants.
