Treasurer True for the same | reason may not have his ready, but all the other officials are expected to have their reports in time. Litigation of the City. The report of City Solleitor Wadsworth, who falled of re-election for a third term, | 18 completed and it shows that the city ha | beeh eminently successtul in its lawsuits | during his tenure of office. The report will contain a resume of the litigation in which the city was Involved during Mr. Wads- worth's four years of office. The suit against the motor company, which has been pending since 1891, for re- fund of speclal taxes for paving and grad- ing, was forced to trial by Mr. Wadsworth on his assuming office and he succeeded in securing judgment in favor of the city for $7,000, which has since been paid by the { motor company. The suit of the Rock Island rallroad against the city to close up South Seventh atreet, which had been de- clded adverse to the city in the district court, was taken to the supreme court and a reversal secured by Mr. Wadsworth, thereby saving the street to the public. Of the forty-six cases against the city during Mr. Wadsworth’s tenure of office forty-one were won by the city and only five lost. In the several damage sults the amount clalmed was $27,500, while the amount recovered agalnst the city only ag- gregated $2,620. A number of damage suits are still pending. City is Getting Good. The report of Chiet of Police Albro sho that for the year ending April 1, 1902, the total number of arrests made were 1,302, as aguinst 1,403 for the previous twelve months. Of these 208 arrests were for stato offenses, in which seventy-one counvictions were obtained; sixty-seven were discharged. The, nationality of, the persons arrested was as follows: Americans, 764; Africa | not given, 285. During the year 1,080 per- | sons were provided with lodging at the city Jail. The total amount of cash collected by the department from fines, forfeitures, ote., was $3,245.30. Davis sells paint, Among the C!

(From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, April 7.—(Special.)—It is now anticipated that the legislative ses- sion of the Twenty-ninth general assembly will_be brought to an end the latter part of this weak, possibly on Thursday, but certalnly by Friday or Saturday. The progress made the past week has been considerable. cases and the millage taxes for the state institutions was a long step toward reaching the end. The appropria- tions committees have now practically come to an agreement on every item. The bill for the institutions under the State Board of Control will call for wbout $710,- 00, the chief reduction from the bill as 1 | originally introduced being iv the lopping |18 off of items for the purchase of land at the Soldiers Orphans’ home at Davenport, leav- ing out an item for a deep well at Independence hospital and leaving off ftem; tor gates and buildings at the Soldiers home at Marshalltown. An item has just been added of $15,000 for a mew laundry building at the Mount Pleasant hosoital to take the place of one burned a week ago today. Of the sum to be given the State Board of Control cnly about $485.000 will be made avallable period. contracts and purchases running over fnto the next blennial period. With the of the millage taxes the appropriations for the educational Institutions will be re- duced more than half. In this way the committees have reached the conclusion that they can get the appropriations down to a reasonable sum—say about $1,800,000 a year, which will take only a 3 mill levy. It is the plan of the house members to pass the appropriations Wills for state in- stitutions on Monday and send them to the senate as quickly as possible and the sen- ate committe will take immediate action. as the committees have already agreed. The miscellaneous appropriations will then be passed, the largest of which will be the one for the St. Louis exposition, which 1s likely to be about $100,000. There will be no contingent appropriation to be pald out of the war clalms refund. The etate Iatorical building will mot be completed and there will be no arsenal. A small ap- propriation will be made for beginning the work of completing the state capital. The rest of the items will be insignificant. Many Unimportant Matters. The calendars of the senate and house contain about 100 bills each not yet acted on. It will be impossible to act on more than a third of them. A great many that havé merit may wait without harm to any person or interest, but the majority of the measures are of very little importance to the genmeral public and there will be no harm done when the sifting committe get to work and sweep them off the cal- | endar into the waste basket. The rallroad bllls are still attracting some attention. The bill to provide for assessing rallroads on the stocks and “unds plan was completely discredited before . got to a vote In the house. When (fie nuh- llcity section was taken out and pas by the house as a separate bill it was laan at once that the whole subject would be opened up and the bill was take nback to the house, where it will be defeated in due time. Of itselt the publicity bill was in line with the sentiments of Governor Cum- mins in his inaugural, but it could not get through without many additions there- to. The two bills whicn have been de- nominated ‘‘merger” bills have not yet been disposed of, but an agreement has prac- tically been reached which will end the disput and amended or substitute bills will be passed.

In New Kngland states there appears a decrease of sixty-nine fail- ures and nearly $2,000,000 in amount of de- faulted indebtedness. The change is prac- tically confined to Massachusetts, and it is noticed that the decrease is not due to any exceptional loss last year, since Habilities were equally heavy in 15 An increase of over $1,000,000 in liabilities was reported for the three middle states, and Pennsyl- vania supplied practically ali the difference, which was more than explained by two large suspensions, a rubber concern and a coal mine. Eliminating these two excep- tional failures, which accounted for nearly indebiedness, the record for Peni- | sylvania would be unusually good. Numerous Fallures South.
