A question has been raised in connection with the re ent fare ordinance which is of some interest to the general public. “The ordinance was drawn up in the law office of Messrs, Harl & McCabe, and without being submitted to the city attorney for his opinion was hustled through the council on the evening of its presenta- tion under a suspension of rules. Since its passage it has been discovered that there was no clause at the end,as in most ordinances, specifying that “all ordinances and parts of ordinances in conflict with this ordinance are hereby repealed.” The questions that are now agitating the minds of some are: Is not this ovdinance in conflict with the old ordinance which granted the company the right to charge b-conts in the city? And if 80, is the ordinance_ just passed worth the paper it is written on? Mayor Lawrence, when the called to his attention yester a BEE reporter, was considerably surprised. He had not noticed the de t, but as he had attached his ofticial signat’ire to the or- dinance but a few minutes before and the or- dinance was then on its way to the printing ofice to be published according to law, there wis nothing for him to de Mr. McCabe, the lawyer who drew up the ordinance, was very naturally loth te that he had made any brealk in the 1 and_spent a good share of the mornine in jeering softly to himself about the “'states- man’ who had made the discovery. City Attorney Hazelton was asked for his opinion of the validity of the ordinance. but was unwilling to be quoted, on the ground that courtesy i his ‘eritivising the work of anothier lawyer, who had done the things which were supposed to have been his duty. The feeling 1s quite general that whether the omission of the repealiug clause invali- dates the ordinance or. not, no harm can_be done by remedying the defect before the matter is brought into the courts. The motor company has repeatedly “shown its reaciness to use eve ter how trivial, provisions of its chuarte which have been passed for i and there is but little doubt that this will be raised as an objection to the Lo of the ordinance. The ordmance making a 3-cent fare the limit had its first publication yesterday, and is now consequently as much of a law as it ever will be. It is customary, however, to wait before enforeing any Luw until 1t has been published three times. By custon, therefore, the law will not go into effect until Monday evening. It is stated that there arc several persons in the city prepar- ing to jump over one another’s neeks. in the endeavor to be the victim of the case which il no doubt bo brought 1o test tho new aw. matter was y morning by technicality, no mat- ans of eluding the nd _the ordinances ment, m s gover ifor a clear head and s Tuke Bromo-Sel 1y nerves Ltzer—trial bottle 10¢ Balloon ascension at Manawa today at 8 p. m. Just cheese. received, Mrs. Clear Case Against Baxter, Baxter, alias Webb, had his preliminary examination yesterday before Justice Field on the charge »of being connected with the diamond robbery at John Mete the Cr cent City roaa a little than three vears ago. Baxter has had a checkered career Gver since the crime was committed, having spent at least a year of the time in the Towa penitentiary and no one but himself knows how much of the remainder has been en- joyed behind prison bars. When he was arrested in Lincoln several weeks ago ho had a complete setof safeblowers' tools in his possession, and there was some reason for believing that he had been implicated in the robbery of a large number of postoftices iv lowa. Yesterday's hearing seemed to have pretty definitely setiled the fact that he will have another chance to get ac. quainted with the ofticials at the Fort Madi- son penitentiary. The most interesting was that of John_ Steilen, who used to li on the shore of the river near a road which leads aircctly across the country from Met- calf’s house,” On the night of the robbery he had a visi*, from three men, who asked him 0 ke them acr the river in his boat He rowed them ac nd identified one of Hn‘m as Baxter, whom he had seen before. fine imported Swiss Beck's, 600 Main street. 1f's house on s testimony of the day other two were dronl 1d somewnat screct us to their remarks.

This story dovetails with that of Mrs. Metealf, who testified that she pulied the mask off the faceof one of the robbers, whom she identified s Baxter, and makes out u very strong case ngainst Bax- ter, whose previous record will not help him much. There is considerable doubt as to the stolen diumonds being worth #00, as Mrs Metcalf claimed, or any considerable fraction of that sum, but for the purposes of the trial that amount is both convenient and interesting.

The fifteen locomotives which were seized about two weeks ago were to have been sold yesterday mornivg, but the prompiness with which the company executed 1ts deaths-bed repentance rendered further proceedings un- necessary, and the delivery bond given by the company at the time the engines were temporarily released was surrendered, The amount thit changed hands was #5.646.11, this ineluding about &400 of costs, which the company would not have had to pay if it had been willing to settle its taxes without the making of a seizure.

No other man had succeeded in so impressing himself upon the vorable consideration of his associates on the floor at such an early od of s membership. He was sorry, he said, to note by the tone and words of the gentleman from Maryland (Mr. Rayner), who opened the discussion, that he was in- fluenced by the columns of the metropolitan and wus disposed to_treat representa- of the western districts, and particu- larly of those states where silver is mined, as foreigners and aliens. He did not ex- actly comprehend the reason why that gentleman should speak of the Treasury de- partment as acting the part of a pawn- broker for the silver miners of Colorado and Nevada. It might bo the gentleman knew more of pawnbroking than he did.or it might be on aceount of the practice of the Treasury department to jew down tho men who brought the silver there to sell because it was now boyond ques tion that such was the policy the department. 1t was because the people of Colorado had come to understand that the platforms of the two great political parties were but glittering catehwords that they had within the last twelve months asserted their political independence. It was not the New York Sun said) be- cause Mr. Reed of Maine was a czar that the democratic party had come into power. It was because it had declared unequivocally for the remonetization of silver. The scene in the houso today was enough to attract the attention of any thoughtful obscrver. Was it possible that the gentleman from yland (Mr. Rayner), uttering the senti- ments he did, and the gentleman from Mis- souri (Mr. Blind), uttering the sentences he did, were electod last fall on the identical platform. [Laughter on al sides. ] Iromise that Had Been When the democratic party met in con- vention in 1884, Mr. Pence continued, it de- fin houest money,that gold and inage of the constitution ana Brokon. is a ting medium convertible into such money without loss. That meant, he said, the remonetization of silver at its old ratio; and it was so accepted by the silver producers. But even before Mr. Cleveland's first inauguration that piatform had been deliberately slapped in the tace and spat [Appiausc.] For four years of the land administration there had not been (so far as the admimstration was con- cerned) one sincere effort to remonetize sil- ver. The republican administration which followed was no better in that respect, still 1t was not his_purpose to follow up the evolutions of political parties or to take part in a partisan discussion. Elected last fall by a_ people, brave. buoyant and hopeful he knew that their industries had been pros trated by the course of the past two admin- istrations, by the base surrender of those who had been clected on a_silver platform and on silver pledges. 1n this connection ho quoted from a speccn made by Mr. Carlisle in the house in 188, to the effect that tho striking down of from thr uths to onc-half of the metallic money of the coun try was the most gigantic crime of this or other gencration, and he contrasted t aration with the present position of the secretary on the silver question. The speech was made, he said, when that gentleman was a leader, nota follower, whon he was a sender of messages, not a bearer of them. [Laughter.] Mr. Whaeler of Alabama closed the dis- cussion for the day with a plea fora larger volume of currency, and the house ad- journed. e Piles of people have pues, but De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve will cure them. i A WORLD-BEATER. The American Girl as She Appears Amld the Breakers of Narragansett, Tt is at 11 o'elock in the morning when the beauty of Narragansett pler is outin its bravest array, for the long stretch of beach and the line of foaming breakers alive with bathers, says & writer in the Boston Globe. And the bathing suits! Dear me, was there ever such a sigh' conditions of them appear, from the dainty French creation of the piquant actress on advertising bent to the long- pantalooned affair of the Boston girl. All of the colors of the rainbow are worn, and all sorts of fabrics are seen in the makeup of these fuscinating sea suits. Some of silk are elegant affairs, and there are some of satin and brocade that are fine enough to graco a ballroom if only lluu\lu-uml a good bit. The most popular matervial of all, how- ever, is alpaca or brilliantine. It sheds the water readily, does not cling im- modestly, and, netter still, does not fade. Miss Winnie Davis' suit is of alpaca, and is most becoming to its very pretty young wearer. 1t is of navy blue irimmed simply with white braid. One of the most beantiful women in the surf is Miss Marie Stevling of Balti- more, whose far-famed red-gold hair shines out magnificently in the sunshine, She dresses in whitz—pearl white—and her flesh gleams out beautifully in con- trast with its creamy tints. The suit is ches The sleeves are mere poufls in baby fashion and th throat is cut avay in a point und has a sailor collar and white silk tie. Another naiad who is much admired both in and out of the breakers is Miss Stervett of Paterson, N. J. She always has a swarm of gallants about her, for she is really & beauty and aeserves her belleship, She is sald to be the most funltlessly formed girl av the pier, and she swims like a duck She wears @ nerfectly fitting bathing suit of dark [ite, which is the aasende of wodesty.
