'TALK OVER BRIDGE MATTERS | Illinois Qentral Agrees to Maintain Wagon Way Over the Missouri, SIMPLY ASKS AN EXTENSION OF TIME Comnell Inclined to Withdraw Objec- tion to BiIl in Congress if It in Amended Ma Suggented. in er With a view of securing an expression from the city council favoring an extension of time for the Tllinols Central railroad in which to complete the rebuilding of its of Omaha appeared yesterday afternoon be- fore a specially called meeting of the alder- men sitting as a_committee of the whole. Attorney Emmet Tinley appeared on behalt of the East Omaha Land company, which 1s opposed to any extemsion of time belug granted by congress. The appearance of Messrs. Webster and Tinley before the committee of the whole was at the suggestion of Congressman Smith. The bill introduced by the Illinols Central, and which aroused such oppositicn here, has been killed apparently in Wash- ington through the efforts of Congressman Smith. This bill ' gave the railroad com- pany permission to put In an additional soan, abolished the wagonway features and extended the time for completion to July, 1904. Under its charter the rallroad had to complete the rebuilding of the bridge by July, 1903. Seeing that this bill would be defeated Mr. Webster, on behalf of the rallroad com- pany, suggested a compromi: He offered to reincorporate the highway clause re- talning to the public the wagon road pro- vided the company was given an extension of five years in which to complete the bridge. In his letter to Mayor Morgan ask- ing for an expression of opinion from the eity council Congressman Smith sald: ““The bridge company consents to rein- corporation of highway clause of the bill vrovided I would consent to a five years' extension of time in which to complete It. 1 was Inclined to think that it was best to accept this offer. I also fully appreciate that there is much of force in what Mr. Webster suggests.”” After a lengthy discussion pro and econ, during which Mr. Webster and Mr. Tinley washed over considerable dirty linen, much to the edification of the aldermen, Mr. Webster offered as a compromise in return for the council favoring an extension of time to have the rebuilding of the bridge completed by July, 1904, an extension of only one year. Mr. Webster explained that the Illinols Central, which now owned the bridge, had not secured possession and control of it until January 14 of this year, and that nrior to that time the management of it had been controlled by the East Omaha Land company. The aldermen oxpressed themselves In favor of approving an extension of time for one year provided the raliroad company intended to act in good faith and gomplete the reconstruction of the bridge as con- templated by the charter by July, 1904, Mr. Webster stated several reasons why it was almost impossible for the railroad to reconstruct the bridge by July, 1903, and hinted that if it was not given the exten- sion to 1904 it would in all probability aban- don the brid, At the meeting of the city councll last night & resolution was unanimously adopted favoring the extemsion of time to July, 1904, In which to complete the reconstruc- tion of the bridge, providing the vehicle and pedestrian privilege features remained in the bill to be passed by congress. A copy of the resolution was ordered for- arded to Congressman Walter I Smith at Washington. Plumbing and heatmg. Bixby & Son THREE TELEPHONE PROPOSALS Salient Points Anke of the Franchises by the Different Companies, The citizens of Council Bluffs now hi throe propositions from Independent com- panies for telephone franchises to choose from, as this number of ordinances pro- viding for charters were introduced at the meeting of the city council last night. The Council Bluffs Independent Telephone company introduced a substitute ordinance for the one submitted a week ago, con- taining all the amendments and additions decided upon when the measure was before the committee of the whole last Thursday. Charles Webster of Minneapolis introduced one on behalt of the Omaha & Council Blufts Telephone and Telegraph company, yet to be created, and Vie Stevens of Du- buque introduced a third on behalf of the Interstate Telephone company. The features of the substitute ordinance introduced by the Council Bluffs company, which calls for a franchise of thirty-five years, have already been made public, but for sake of comparison its rates are again glven. They are as follows: Rates for Business Houses—One party, special line, $36 per year; two parties on ame line, $24; Three parties on same line, $20; four parties on same line, $18. Rates for Residences—One party, special line, $24 per year; two parties on same line, $18; three parties on same line, $1 four parties on same line, $12. For all te ephones Irstalled using ground circult asd equipment, now known as the “ordinary,” shall not exceed the followlng ra #le wire for business, $24 per yea idence, $18. The ordinance does not provide for the purchase by the city of the plant and the company does mot offer to put up a bond to carry out its part of the contract. This ordinance provides that the company shall bave its plant installed and in operation within two years after the ordinance be- coms effective. The company does not offer to give the city any per cent of its earnings. The Omaha & Couhcll Bluffs Telephone and Telegraph company asks for a thirty- year franch The main features of its ordinance ai Maximum rate of §15 a year for residence 'phones, maximum rate of $24 a year for business ‘phones, ne charge to subscribers until 1,000 'phones are fustalled, the city to receive 5 per cent of the company's groes earnings, forfeiture of $10,000 bond if plant is not installed and in operstion within eighteen months after ordinance becomes effective, wires to be placed in underground conduits, in. what- ever district city council may direct, con- struction of plans to be begun within ninety days after ordinance becomes effective to be completed within eighteen mon ressed. ‘Phone A-621. lowa Steam Dye orks, 304 Broadway.

Parties paylng for “one party, special line, long distance equipment,” to have free use of all company's toll lines in Pottawattamle county. The substituted ordinance of the Council Bluffs company was passed to its second reading, but an effort to secure this action for the Interstate company's ordinance falled. The Omaha & Council Bluffs Tele- phone and Telegraph company did not ask this. Al three ordinances were referred to the committee of the whole, which will meet next Monday afternoon. The mayor's appointment of C. L. Claar las a speclal policoman, without expense to the city, was confirmed. On the recommendation of the committee on rules, changes were made io as to add to the committee on water works, telephone and telegraph, and to make it necessary for the vote of all aldermen present to sus- pend the rules for the passage of an ordi- nance granting a franchise.

DES MOINES, April 22.—(Special.)—The farmers of lowa have begun to feel nmer- vous over the crop outlook for this year and fears are entertained and freeiy ex- pressed that unless a change comes soon the prospect for good crops will be very poor, indeed, in the most of the st The northern part ie reported to be dryer than the southern. During the last ten days the wind has been blowing a great deal and this bas taken out the surface moisture so that small grain has been suffering. Winter wheat has been almost ruined In &ome places. There has been no rain at all in central Towa and the latter part of the win- ter was free from snow. Yesterday morn- ing a thunderstorm passed over the state from west to east and occasional snowers were reported. In southeastern lowa there was a good rain, but it was followed by hot, dry winds, and the effect was almost fmme- diately lost. Today the entire state has ex- perienced a hot wind from the west, one of the warmest days on record for this time of the year, and while warm weather was needed to start the vegetation the gale which has been blowing in connectin therewith is hard on all growing things The local weather bureau reports hopeful signs of raln at an early date. Money for Fish Commissioner, George A. Lincoln of Cedar Rapids, state fish and game warden, appeared before the state executive council today and asked that the council do what it can to help out the Fish and Game commission in the matter of funds for the next two years in lieu of the appropriations which the legisulature failed to make. He presented a statement showing that there is on hand of the money previously appropriated about $3,800, which may be used during the next two years In the prosecution of violators; also that of the appropriation to pay for propagation and distribution of fish during the two years just past; there is about $1,300 on hand, but this cannot be used for any new expenses incurred. However, there are many old bille that were left unpaid and these will all be pald out of the old appro- priation, thus relieving the commissioner to that extent. The executive counctl will make a small appropriation as may be needed, so that the fish and game commis- | slon will be able to go ahead with the work during the next two year: Former Omaha Man in Trouble, George Smith and Byron Kemp, both em- ployed in a livery barn, had a quarrel today when both were drunk and as a result Kemp is at & hospital with five deep wounds cut with a knife. One wound in the lungs may prove fatal. Smith formerly lived in Omaha and has a brother there. The city council of Des Moines today au- thorized Mayor Brenton to expend $500 in such a manner as may be deemed best in helping to ferret out the murderers of the Peterson children, and the Board of Super- visors authorized extra pay for the sheriff in employment of persons to work on the case. The only thing new is the discovery of the fact that the detectives are worke ing on the theory that the murder was done by an insane person. Homestead Not to Be Sold. The sale of the Homestead, a farm paper, and property connected therewith, has been put off because the supreme court has been sked for rehearing in the case. The court rendered a decision which affirmed the lower court in ordering a sale of the property that there might be a eettlement between the owners of the property. But from this deciston ot the court all of the parties de- eire another hearing, as the decision suits none of the owners. The controversy has | been In the courts many months and if the court opens up the question again it will be long before it is settled, Controversy Over Insane Man. News has been received here that J. W. Kelley, an insane patlent at Clarinda, has dled, and this will change the status of an | important lawsuit, in which the attorney general of the state has appeared to es- tablish who should pay for the keeping of the said insane patient. There was & controversy between O'Brien and Woodbury countles over the keeping of the patient, s each county asserted he was a resident of the other at the time he became insane. Recently the attorney genmeral went to northwest Towa to appear in a to ai 65 | pose of the question, and the suit will be continued, so as to determine who shall pay for the keeping of the patient in the past. Good Well at Cherokee. After pumping two or three days at the rate of 6,000 gallons a day on the well at Cherokee hospital, the water was found to be as abuvdant as ever, and the pumps were set to pump 100,000 gallons a day with the same result. The State Board of Control therefore feels that the well, which has been bored to a depth of about 1,300 feet, ie practically inexhaustible and that there is all the water that will ever be needed at the state hospital there.
