The ballots cast at the last city election were brought before Judge McGee again yes terday afternoon for a re-examination in connection with the MeAtee-Gorham con the time the recount was mad MeAtee found which had not been signed with the initials of the election judge, and it was thereupon ob- jected to by Mr. Saunders, Gorham's attor- ney. Mr. Shea, who represented MeAtee, wanted the ballots all gone over again in order that it might be ascertained if som more ballots might not have gone in un- signed. Judge McGee refused to allow the ballots to be re-opened until he had had a ehance to rule upon the question of whether the lack of a signature would Invalidate the ballot. Yesterday he decided that it would, and called for the re-opening of the ballots, The result is that Shea is claim- ing to have discovered a gain of two votes for his client. It 1s claimed by howe rham, that the ballots ought not to be introduced again | at this time, because no pains have been taken since they were in court the last time to see that they have been kept free from tampering finge Buy vour drugs and paints at Morgan's deug stores, 134 and 742 Broadway.

C. De Haven, J. G. Lemen, W. H. Kuepher, Jacob Sims, W. W. Wallace, C. M. Harl and Henry Delong formed the labor- ing men’s committee. J.,G. Lemen introduced Mr. Sims, the retary of the committee, who read a stat ment of what the committee desired. . In view of the fact that there are 400 heads of families willing to work but unable to find it, the following suggestions were made: That Indian creek be widened and deepened at the mouth, cleaned to the city limits, and only residents of Council Bluffs who have families to support be employed in the work; that Bast Pierce street be paved; that the Crescent City road be drained and filled 50 a8 to keep it passable at the year; that the alleys be cl garbage ordinance be strictly enforced; that the railway companies be required to bring their tracks to grade; that work on the streets by the “chain gang” be discontinued, and city prisoners be put to work in seclu- sion on a stone pile, 5o that the work now done by the chain gang may be done by reputable citizens, Mr. Lemen followed with suggestions—the repaving and sewering of Oakland avenue; putting in shape North Fifteenth and North Twentieth streets to the lake; making a driveway of Avenue O to the new bridge. W. H. Knepher proposed that a committee wait on Leonard Everett for the purpose of Inducing him 1f possible to allow the creek to be widened where it ran through his land. City Attorney Hazelton explained the uation and showed that this plan was not feasible, because Everett's tenant, whose name is Coyle, stood ready to enjoin the city at the first sign of its adoption. Hazelton then called for the committee to give its reasons for wanting the chaln gang dis- pensed with. The committee thought it was a disgrace to civilization to have drunkards and vagabonds worked on the street. City Attorney Hazelton called attention to the fact that the bonded indebtedness of the city was certainly within a few thou- sand dollars of the constitutional fimit, and there was some question whether it was not many thousand dollars in excess of the limit In regard to the paving of Pierce street most of the property owners were opposed to it. Moreover, in one place at the side of the street there was a strip of ground a rod wide and thirty or forty rods long which was not worth the paving. This would throw the burden on the city. After somo little discussion, in which the question of finance was industriously shoved to the front by the city officials and just as industriously evaded by the members of the committee, Mr. Lemen offered two more res- olutions, the first of which was that the 'ty should buy the Chau auqua amphitheater and move it fnto the city and that the Omaha Terminal company shoald be invited to build its motor line between this city and Bast Omaha this spring. With reference to the paving of Bast Plerce street the mayor said if the consent of the property owners could be secured he should favor the proposition. Mr. Wallace wanted a committee appointed to act with the citizen: committee, and Aldermen Nicholson, Gleason and Rishton were ap- pointed such a committee, Garnishments Must Stop in fowa In a short time, as lowa has passed a law against them.

According to the testimony of James Har- ris, which was given in Justice Vien's court yesterday, he, Bob Limerick, Al and John Rachwitz, Charles Kerns and Granville ames have been carrying on a ematic robbery of freight cars in the southern part of the city for months. A scheme was con- cocted whereby the thieves got into the cars without breaking the seals. It fs impos- sible to tell of how much the railroad com- panies have been defrauded. It is estimated, however, that they have lost $400 worth the inside figure. It seems the fellows have laid_themselves liable to prosecution at the hands of Uncle Sam, if the authorities care to press the case. A butt of tobacco was sold to John Peterson of Persia_ without a_ goy- ernment permit. Three caddies of tobacco were sold to a man named Stumpf at Pony Creek less than a week ago, and the de- scription furnished the officers leads to the belief that it was either Limerick or Rach- witz who did the selling in each of these cases. The same man also wanted to sell Herman Bokemper of Pony Creek a ten gallon keg of whisky, claiming that one of his friends had decided to go out of the saloon busin ad he had undertaken to sell out his stock at a heavy discount. Hall himself sold a ten-gallon keg of $2.50 whisk for $15. A Waverley A Why should a sewing machine costing $10.00 at the factory retail for $55.002 Why should a bicycle costing $45.00 retail for $125.00? Why should a buyer pay $125.00 for a wheel in Council Bluffs when dealers in other towns sell the same wheel for $90.00? There are forty-one Waverleys being ridden in Council Bluffs, and every one has been bought with money and not two-thirds paid for with an old wheel, as has been the case with three-fourthis of the $125.00 wheels sold here this year. Reader, if you do not buy for money you hold the bag for the man who got two prices for his old wheel. See? A $1,000,000 corporation guarantees the Waver- ley equal to any wheel made, and we see that guaranty made good. Of the thirteen riders mentioned in yesterday's Bee as buy- ing $125.00 wheels,twa got wheels at cost, nino traded in old wheels at big prices, one paid over half in jewelry and one is a son of the boss. Now you pay cash and hold the bag and keep the boom going. Weights of Waverleys, 21 pounds and up, clincher tires. Price always and only $85.00.

Robinson of this city, has been broken by a decision of the jury in Judge Grosscup’s court in Chi- cago. This takes away from Mrs. Robinson the $5,000 and the personal property be- queathed her by her sister, and divides the entire property among the two sons of Mrs. Stiles.

For some time the city council has been gossments, collecting taxe fes as a city of the first class, while the school board has been operating thelr business affairs as a city of the cond class. The question has been agitated until the majority of the citizens desire to know just which proposition is the legal and t one. Attorneys Lane, Montgomery and Bell have been retained by the committee to take charge of the caso and will file their papers within the next twenty-four hours. In case the court holds that South Oniaha is a city of the second class it will leave matters in a bad shape here. The old council transacted business as a city of the first class and the new council has carried out the same policy. An effort will be made to have the matter decided at an early date. Played with a Short Deck. A tally-ho party of South Omaha people attended a card party in Omaha at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. W. I Mumaugh on Twenty-ninth avenue. The majority of the members of the party are members of the Drive Whist club in this city and are supposed to know something about that game. In fact, they have been playing whist all wirter and some record- smashing was done when the secretary an- nounced the score of the players at the last meeting. After a half-dozen games had been played last night Z. Cuddington and Will Mumaugh called all tlic geusts into one room and showed the pl they had been using a deck all evening that had been robbed of the four five-spots. It was a good joke and every one enjo it; but the players didn’t do a thing to President Jay- cox. He had split enough tricks during the evening to come out winner, but he couldn’t understand why it was that there were only twelve trieks: out each hand. There is no member of that party last night who will pass a whist deck in the future without counting the cards. The players were: Mr. and Mrs.»Do L. Holmes, ‘M. and Mrs. Eli H. Doud, Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Jaycox, Mr. and Mrs. J. Tanner, Mr. and Mrs. W. P. Mumaugh and Z. Cudding- ton. salaries unt any making Government M Dr. Blackwell, the at Insp lon. chief government in- spector at the packing houses, now has the largest force of Iuspectors that has ever been employed here. Although there are a number of men throughout the state who are laboring under the impression that they are soon to be tagggers, the doctor says that no more men are needed and he does not believe any more will be appointed soon. Dr. White has been lonesome in his de- partment for the last thirty days, as no one except himself has been at work in the microscopical department. The Cudahy Packing company will have fifty boxes of meat for export in a few days and for this reason five of the girls in the microscopical station will be put to work soon. Tayes and Johnson Fined. Chiet Brenvan has started out to rid South Omaha of tin horn gamblers, He ar- rested Dug Johnson and Charles Hayes, and both men were convicted of vagrancy. The chief testified that he had known the men for some time and that both were idlers and had no visible means of support. John- on was fined $25 and c and Hayes was fined $10 and costs. Both men took an appeal to the district court. Johnson gave a bond in the sum of $50.

It was the intention to administer the fatal dose soon after daylight today, and, in order that the task might be the easier, Tip was deprived of food for twenty-four hours. At 6 a. m. Park Commissioners Clausen, Strauss and Bell, accompanied by Superintendents Smith and Burnes, arrived at the arsenal In Central park. A few min- utes later Drs. Huntington, Allen and Spitzka joined them. Tip was meanwhile swaying restlessly in his cage and swinging his enormous trunk viciously. ~ Tom, the trick elephant, and Juno, who occupied the adjoining cage, were driven out to the open space hehind the ele- phant house and chained there so that they would not be disturbed or frightened by the expected trumpeting of Tip when he would et his *pill.” Thirty policemen surrounded the building to keep the crowds away from the doors, and none but journalists and visitors with per- mits were allowed to enter the building. At 6:30 o' everytning was in readiness. To avoid possible accident, all were ex- cluded from the elephant house except thos directly concerned in the momentons event. At exactly 6:58 Otto Mops who has been for years an animal trainer both in Germany nd this country, walked up to the cage and handed Tip a rosy-colored apple which had a big dose of cyanide of pota sium within its surface. The big fellow nibbled it for a moment with his truuk, and finally put it in his capacious mouth. But when he crunched it between his teeth, ho evidently felt that there was something wrong with the taste and spat it out. Mops then “tried him with a carrot, which was similarly drugged, but Tip refused to taste it, as he did another apple and carrot which wero passed to him afterwards. Keeper Mops then gave Tip a picce of bread con- taining about two ounces of the deadly drug, but the big fellow after munching it slowly a few times, threw that also on the floor. Tip undoubtedly had his suspicions about the morsels which were being fed to him, but the doctors said he had certainly got enough of the poison in his system to kill a dozen horses, The drug did not seem to have very much effect upon him until nearly an hour afterwards, when the violent motions of his head, body and trunk became less rapid and his legs scemed to be getting weak. This lasted only a short time, how- ever, and then Tip regained his wonted with poison was selected as most thon- he It is not definitely decided what shall be done now, but the talk is sLii of finishing the work with poison, probably this afternoon. There were evidences after 3 p. m. that the poison was deing its work. Tip was breathing very hard, and scemed scarcely able to move his trunk. There was a belief in the mind of Dr. Allen that the elephant might die before night.
