4 COUNCIL BLUFFS. CET N0 DRINK AFTER SUPPER Order to Olose Baloons After 6 0'clock Sun- day is Btrictly Enforced. HOTEL MEN MAKE VIGOROUS PROTEST Rest Their Custom—Talk of Retallation, For the first time in several years the #aloons of Council Bluffs were closed at 6 o'clock Sunday night, those with a thirst that required quenching being unable to secure admittance even by the side or back door. The order of Mayor Morgan that the ealoons close at midnight week days and at 6 o'clock If the evening Sunday was obeyed. At midnight Saturday the saloons closed promptly and they did the same last evening at § o'clock The hotel men of Council Bluffs, how- ever, while obeying the mandate to close their paloons Sunday evening at 6 o'clock, 1ive in hope that the mayor will reconsider his order. The hotel men belleve that the continuance of the enforcement of the order will hurt their business and be the means of sending many of their patrons mcross the river. They assert that travel- ing men who have been in the habit of making Council Bluffs their stopping-over place for Sundays will not stay here any more when they cannot, if they feel so disposed, secure a drink from the bar. This, it Is asserted, will prove a serious loss to the hotel trade of Council Bluffs. Sevetal of the hotels in Council Bluffs are in a position to conduct their saloons strictly according to the provisions of the mulet law without much loss to thelr busi- ness under the new orders issued by Mayor Morgan. They threaten that if the mayor persiste In the enforcement of his Sunday closing order that they will take the nec- essary steps to run the saloons attached to their hotels according to the mulet law, as is the case In Des Moines, and insist that il saioons be conducted on the same basis. ' They will further insist that the law regulating the sale of latoxicating liquors by drugglists in Council Bluffs be rigidly enforced and will see to it that prosecu- tlon follows In-every instance whereit Is violated. Mayor Morgan is the owner of a drugstore and the hotel men threaten that #f he persists in enforcing this Sunday ovening closlng order they will see to it that be in turn abides strictly by the law regulatiag sale of liquor by drug storess Another kick against the Sunday evening closing order comes from those saloons in connection with which restaurants are con- ducted. The owners say that they have a regular class of patrons who take their meals at their restaurants, but owing to the order closing their loons at 6 o'clock Sunday eyvening thelr patrons will be forced to go elsewhere to eat. The keepers of saloons In the vicinity of the opera house are also up In arms agalost the Bunday evening closing order. The best part of their trade, they eay, is Sunday evening between, the acts at the theater, and to make them close at that time will 40 them grievous financial injury. x The general opinion Is that an enforce- ment of the order will result in sending a large amount of this class of busin.ss across the river.

The grocery store 6f Young Brothers at 1004 Avenue H, which was broken into and robbed about a week ago, suffered again at the hands of thieves Saturday night. On the former occasion the thieves effected an entrance by forcing in a back door and in consequence this had been stoutly barricaded. Finding the back door barricaded the thieves went to work Sat- urday night and sawed a panel out of the front door, through which they crawled. Once inside they helped themselves to a generous supply of cigars, canned goods, fruit, tobacco, several hams and a miscel- laneous assortment of eatables They left the store by unbolting the back doer from the finside. The police have reason to believe that both robberies are the work of a gang of young fellows living In the vielnity. Robbe N. Y. Plumbing Co., te MINOR MENTION. Davis sells deugs.

CURRENT NEWS OF IOWA T0 USE LABOR OF CONVICTS Muyor of Des Moines Has a Plan to Get Needed Public Work Done. PLANS FOR AN INTER-URBAN RAILROAD State Amditor Holds Banks Cannot Deduet United States Bo Valuation tor Purposes. from Tax (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, April i8—(Special.)—Mayor Brenton of this city has proposed a plan In regard to the betterment of the city of Des Moines that the city council s se- riously considering and it is likely to be tried early In the year. This Is to make use of the labor of the prisoners of the county jail, sent there under sentence for violation of the city ordinances and over which the city has control. He proposes that the convict labor of this class shall be used in the Improvement of the city cemetery, city parks and in street clean- ing, the opening of new streets and gen- erally in such city work as requires only the commonest kind of labay. The plan is to organize the force into gangs and put the men to work, even when they have been sent to jall for but a week or more. The city is not financlally able to pay for all the work that ought to be dome at once and the objections of laboring men to the use of convict labor will therefore not be great. The schome has never been tried here, but is looked upon with favor by all the city officials and the park com- missioners. Promotion of Interurbans, A syndicate with headquarters In Des Molnes s actively engaged in pushing a project for an interurban electric system northwest from Des Moines. It Is planned to run the line into Dallas county and to Adel by way of Van Meter, thence to Perry, across Dallas county, with an extension to Jefferson and other citles in that direc- tion. The plan is to organize a company and sell the stock to persons living along the line, so as to interest them In the project and assure their custom. The &yn- dicate s assured of practically enough money in this way to bulld the line and equip it. Connections will be made at Valley Junction with the line into Des Molnes and to every part of the city. This is regarded ns one of the most feasible of the many luterurban projects now under consideration. Bank Taxes and Bon State Auditor Merriam s confident that the assessors of the state have no author- ity in law for allowing deductions in the assessment of banks on account of United States bonds held. It has been the cus- tom here and elsewhere in the atate for | the banks to invest a large part of their capital In United States bonds and then ] deduct this amount from the capital stock when giving in the assessment. The state auditor has uniformly held that such de- ductions are not authorized by law nor contemplated. The city council of Des Motnes, acting under the advice of the new city solicitor, has just directed that no such deductions shall be made in the case of the Des Molnes banks. This means a matter of about $17,000 in taxes, and the matter will be carried into the courts for determination. The same principle applies elsewhere in the state. Vicksburg Commission.

The board will commence the erection of a new farm cottage at Glenwood at once, the same to cost $26,000. A nmew cold storage plant will be erected at Clarinda at once to cost $15,000.

FUGITIVE CAUGHT IN MEXICO St. Louis Oficial Indicted for Bribery is Held Awaiting Action of American Authorities. ST. LOUIS, April 28.—Ex-Councilman Charles Kratz, indicted for bribery in con= nection with the St. Louls Suburban Street railway franchise legislation and a fugitive from Justice, 1s in Jjail at Guadalajar Mexico. A telegram announcing his arrest and stating that he will be held elght days has been received by Chief of Police Kiely from Jose De Ja Anaya, chief of police of Guadalajara. Though no extradition treaty covered the case, Circuit Attorney Folk today tele- graphed Secretary pf State Hay, asking that the State department use its influence to have the Mexican government volun- tarily deliver Kratz to St. Louis officlals. So confident is Mr. Folk that the request will be granted and that Kratz will be held for the authorities here, that Chiet Kiely | will send two detectives on an early train tomorrow to Guadalajara. Mr. Folk's confidence that Kratz will be returned to this country, though there fs no extradition treaty covering the offense of bribery, is further strengthened by the fact that the Mexican authorities located and arrested Kratz through the influence of the State department and General Powzll Clayton, minister to Mexico. Circuit Attorney Folk and the police have been on the trafl of Kratz ever since April 7, when his $20,000 bond for appearance was forfelted in the criminal court. A reward of $800 was offered for the arrest of Kratz soon after his flight. This re- ward, Chief Klely stated tonight, would be paid to the chief of police of Guadalajara in case Kratz s brought back for trial.

Eight natlonals, six anti-min- | isterialist-soctalists, four anti-ministerial- | ist-republicans and three conservatives were returned. It was the worst defeat | the government hae ever sustained in Paris, The ministerialists lost four seats and another new constituency was won by the nationalists. The deputies elected include Mr. Mille- voye (nationalist), George Berry (national- 1st), Lockry (radical) and Vaillant (revo- lutionary-socialist), who were members of the retiring Chamber, and M. Flourens (progressist), M. Mesurer (radical-sccial- 1st). A retiring deputy was replaced by M. Syveton (nationalist). Reballoting will occur in twenty-nine dis- tricts. The natlonalists, however, suffered a severe check in Algiers, where M. Dru- mont, the notorlous anti-Semite, was turned out by a majority of §00. Among the prominent deputies re-elected to the Chamber are: Count Bonl de Cas- tellane (progressist), from the Department of Castellane; M. Ribot (republican), from the district of Saint Omer, Department of Pas de Calals; M. Meline (progressist), from the district of Remormont, Depart- ment of Vosges, and M. de Lanessan (rad- ical), from the district of Lyons, Depart- ment of the Rhone.

M. Reinach Back in Line. Millerand, the minia- ter of commerce, and M. Leygues, the minister of public instruction, await re- ballots, which most probably will be favor- able. The Dreyfus champlon, Joseph Relnach, whose reappearance in political life was one of the features of the elec- tions, headed the poil of his district in the Department of Basses-Alps. He prob- ably will be re-elected on a reballot by the transference of the votes given to the republican candidate. Up tc the present the results from 275 districts are known, 111 ministerial depu- ties and 82 anti-ministerialists have been elected, and reballots will occur in 82 dis- tricts. The ministerialists elected included eighteen militant-soclalists, who will give very loose support to the government. The | anti-ministerialists include thirty-nine anti- socialists and republican followers of M. Meline Results from 353 districts have been re- | celved. They are divided as follows: 133 | ministerialists, 110 anti-ministerialists and 110 reballots. Late reports show that 147 ministerlalists and 147 antl-ministerialists have been elected to the Chamber, and that reballots will occur in 118 districts. Joan de C: tellane and Stanislaus de Castellane (lib- eral-independents), Leon Bourgeois (rad- ical), M. Pelletan (radical-socialist)’ and Jules Slegfried, who was recently in the United States studying the subject of rect- procity, were re-elected. TERMS OF SHIPPING UNION Germany's Alllance n's Preserves Inde- pendence for the Kaiser, Two ministers, M HAMBURG, April 28.—An official state- ment of the terms of the agreement be- tween the German steamship lines and the syndicate formed by J. Plerpont Morgan Is published here. The agreement between the Hamburg-American Packet company and Mr. Morgan, it appears, was concluded last March. Under the agreement it is claimed the German lines have preserved their inde- pendence in every respect. The syndicate is bound not to send a ship to any German harbor without permission of the German lMnes, which, in turn, bind themselves not to increase thelr present trafic from Eng- land to the United States beyond a cer- taln fixed point. Many other clauses In the agreement alm at preventing compe- tition between the syndicate and the Ger- man lines. Nelther may acquire shares In another, but they are to support each other by chartering steamers or otherwise in fighting competing third parties. LONDON, April 28.—The Daily Mail {n an editorial on the terms of the agreement between the German steamship lines and the Morgan Anglo-American steamship syn- dicate, declares that the birthright of Brit- ish shipping seems to be sold for some- thing very llke a mess of pottage. “The Germans,’ says the Daily' Mall, “have made a good bargain, because the German government was wide awake, whilst the British government ignored warnings and laughed at the threatening peril. “It is high time," the article concludes, “that both the nation and the govern- ment awoke to their peril.” BRUSSELS, April 27.—It i announced here from Antwerp that the Red Star line and from Rotterdum that the Hamburg- America line have joined the shipping com- bine.

Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound would cure me. That same day I took my first dose, and I kept it up faithfully until twelve bottles had been used, and not only did the tumor dis- appear, but my general health was very much improved and I had not felt so well since I was a young woman. “As I have suffered no relapse since, and as I took no other med- icine, I am sure that your Compound restored my health and I believe saved my life.”"—Mgs.
