The election yesterday failed to arouse the great enthusiasm seen on some previous oc- caslons of the same kind, excepting in one or two precinets where some local candidates turned heaven and earth over in the mad rush for victory. The fact that In three wards no ward councilman was to be voted for and the only candidates were for coun- cllman-at-large and park commissioner Kept a good many away from the polls, and even in the wards where councilmen were to be elected a feeling that the only issue at stake was that of city printing prevented a great show of enthuslasm. The buik of the interest was centered in the Second pre- cinet of the Fourth ward, where Councilman White marshalled his forces behind his barn and fed them on choice stimulants of the campaign variety, and in the First precinct of the Sixth, where Shubert and Nicholson vied with vne another in the effort to make all comers feel at home, In the Sixth ward it became evident early in the day that the office of councilman would be bought by the candidate who had the most boodle and the best crowd of rust- ling assistants, A crowd of disreputables stood around the polling place at the corner of Broadway and Twenty-first all day long. At Intervals they would be taken in charge by a Shubert capper or a Nicholson capper and be hustled away to some point just out of hearing, where a barguin would be struck. Then they would be taken into the polling place, and the capper would often accompany them into the building and to a point within two feet of the ballot box, in his anxiety to see that the goods which had been duly bought and paid for were delivered. This was done repeatedly, In spite of the pro- visions of the that forbids electioneering within 100 fect of the polls. SUITED ALL TASTES. Money, whisky and cigars were used treely, according as the voter wanted to buy groceries, get drunk or smoke. One burly German, with a jag which was already well developed, was wandering about the-build- fnig when he fell into the hands of a ward worker and was marched off to an out- bullding in the rear of the polling place, with a couple more statesmen and voters following. An interested spectator reached the door of the outbuflding just in time to see a bottle of whisky making the rounds of the crowd. “Now, Jeft, you'd better go right in and vote,” said one of the statesmen, when their Internal ablutions had been performed. “No, T tink I vill vait until dis afternoon, way the reply. No, the polls will be crowded this after- non; you'd better go right in and do it now, sald tho worker, realizing the advantage of shooting a gun off soon after it is cocked and primed. But (he man with the jag also realized that by a little judicious expenditure of time and encrgy he could increase the com- mercial value of his vote and accumulate a jag which on any day but election day would cost him a good many dollars, and he stuck to his first detcrmination, not to vote until night. One statesman went to a candidate, and re- presenting that he controlled five votes was given $16 with which to work his friends into line. Some time during the day it was learned that the statesman had pald his grocery bill and that the five friends who fiad been depending upon him'to show them the way of light and truth were so enraged at his action that they voted the straight re- publican ticket. INWARDNESS OF THE BETTING. About 6 o'clock in the afternoon Tom Clark, a republican, appeared in front of the Sixth ward polling place and wanted to bet $50 to $50 on Greenshields. A bet of this kind was made, and Clark then wanted to bet $100 to $50 on Shubert, but no taker could be found, “That's an old gag; they only want to tie up our money,” £aid a prominent demo- crat. “You don’t mean to say that the democrats down here are using any money, do you?" remarked a bystander. “Well,” remarked the prominent democrat, “I understand they're using a little, but then the republicans are using more.” In nearly all the wards the vote.was very light, and in some of them but little more than half of the registration. In the Sixth no stone was left unturned, and nearly every voter in the ward was brought to the polls it ho was too tired to walk. As the returns drifted in the situation looked more and more pleasant for the re- publican candidates, and when the evening was over it was found that the council next year will be republican by 6 to 8, Green- shiclds, alderman at large, Brown in the Third, Barstow in the Fourth and Shubert in the Sixth having been clected by ma- jorities that leave no room for contest. Hard- ing, contrary to expectations, received enough votes to elect him to the office of park com- missioner over A. C. Graham, the demo- cratic candidate. The proposition to levy a 1 mill tax for park purposes also carried by a good majority.

He quietly immersed two mor- phine pills in a lirge gulp of whisky and absorbed them, and the first thing he knew he was unconscious and didn’t know anything, Dr. Cleaver was summoned and pumped Blazier full of emetics of various kinds, which secmed to have but little effect. At a late hour last evening it looked as though between the poison and the emetics the young man would have a hard time pulling through, What is in » Name ?

J. R. McPherson, Council Bluffs, Found Ki oy’s ¢ oat. When J. Riley, the shooting and missing bank robber, dashed down Fifth avenue a week ago last Monday night, with several officers_after him shooting for dear life, he took off his overcoat and dropped it at the corner of Seventh stroet, where it was picked up by a stranger and carried off. Sherift Hazen succeeded yesterday in finding the missing coat In the possession of Harry Dye, 537 Fifth avenue, ncross from the court house, Dye and the stranger who picked it up proving to be identical. The one im- portant thing about the find Is that there is no bullet hole in either shoulder, which seems to et at rest Nick O'Brien's theory that e hit Riley with a ‘butlet n the shoui- der. Mr. Dye says that while he was running after Riley he saw him throw away a hand- kerchief full of nickels, which was picked up by Reyv. Father Smythe and turned over to the jailer. A few steps further on Smith, the other bank thief, threw away a hand- Kerchiet of the same kind and filled with arother quantity of nickels. This package was picked up by a boy 12 years of age, who ran as fast as he could up street. This boy has been located by the sheriff and he will be arrested as soon as it is convenient, unless the money is brought back to the sherifi's office. T. McLaughlin, special agent of the Rock Island, with headquarters at Chicago, says he has seen the two men now in the county jail hanging around a_tough resort at the corner of Green and Lake streets in Chi- cago, and at Briney Ward's place, at the corner of Madison and DesPlaines sstreets. He is confident that when Inspector Shea sees the photographs of the (wo men he will be able to furnish some more Informa- tion about them. The protographs are to be comploted this morning and will be sent to the Chicago authorities immediately. Gas heating stoves for rent and for sale at Council Bluffs Gas company's office.

H. Towner Beeanso Sho Thought e Was “Tagging” ¥ TJ:». the Streets, i LINCOLN, March 4.—(Spedlal Telegram.)— In the criminal court this morning George Washington Davis, colored, was placed on trial charged with murder in the first degree in causing the Rock Island wreck in which eleven persons were killed. It 1s the expec- tation of County Attorney Woodward that at least three days will be expended in secur- ing a jury, Today the accused occuplpd a seat near his counsel, Messrs. Philpot,’ Aultschuler and Adams, and viewed the process of selecting a Jury to decide for him the question of life or death with considerable interest. Al- though the evidence Is principally circum- stantial, the state belleves it has wound a strong chain around the accused. Davis 1s a short, stocky bullt negro, very black, with a generous allowance of white surrounding the puplls of his eyes. He is 30 years of age and fairly well dressed There were quite a number present today viewing the prelinginary proceedings, but the big court room will be crowded when the trial gets under way. Although Hon, W. J. Bryan's term as con- gressman closed today, he is not expected home in the immediate future. Before he returns to Lincoln he will make a tour of the couth, lecturing on free silver. He is expected to remain away about a month. Miss Bmma Marley, who horsewhipped C. H. Towner on the street Saturday night, was this morning fined $1 and costs in the police court. She testified that she belleved Towner had been “tagging” her, and she meant to show him that he couldn’t do it any longer. She could not swear that Towner was the man, but had been told he was by friends. Upon this slender identification Miss Marley had armed herselt with a riding whip, and approaching Towner from behind at the foot of the stairway at 1214 O street, dealt him 4 number of stinging blows over the shoul- der. SHOOTING SCRAPE BETWEEN WOMEN. A shooting scrape, in which no one was injured, and which has been Kept very quiet, occurred Saturday afternoon at 1702 L street. Plquancy is added to the event by the fact that the gun was handled by one woman and the object of the attack was another woman. A family by the name of Nicker- son rented the upper portion of the house belonging to Mrs. Outhwaite. In an alterca- tion between Mrs. Outhwaite and Mrs. Nick- erson concerning the rooms, which the latter was about to leave, Mrs, Outhwalte brought matters to a climax by shooting through the wall in the immediate vicinity of the thor- oughly scared Mrs. Nickerson. No ‘arrests have been made, but the rooms which knew Mrs. Nickerson and her two sons know her no more, as.she moved out carly this morning. There are two sides to the story, Mrs. Nickerson ‘claiming that she was only making an explanation, while Mrs. Outhwaite insists that she was grossly insulted by a roomer, who refused to leave her house when ordered to: do so quickly. All parties to the affair are eminently re- spectable and the impression; prevails gen- erally that the lady did not shoot with any intention of inflicting an_injury upon Mrs. Nickerson, but simply attempted to scare her from the premises. 1Such is the story as told by Mrs. Outhwaite. -The two ladies have been warm friends: until within the past week.
