¢ | THE OMAHA DAILY FRIDAY JANUARY 2, ZURRENT NEWS OF IOWA. COUNCIL BLUFFS. ALL WIRES GO IN CONDUIT Oity Oouncil Proposes to Go Full Length in Orusade Against Overhead Wires. NOTHING IN THE AIR BUT THE TROLLEYS Telephone Company Does Not Object Ser! 1y, but Bleetrie L1, Motor and Telegraph Co: Expected to Protest. In addition to the ordinance requiring the placing of all telephone wires underground now befors the committes of the whole, thers will be introdticed at the meeting of the city council Monday night a separate ordtnance providing for the similar disposi- tion of telegraph and electrio light wires and the feed wires of the motor com- pany. ‘These ordinances will be practically the same a8 the onte now befors the council relating to telephone wires excopt that they will not contain the provision com- peliing the companies to furnish space In thetr conduits for the wires of the city’ fire and police alarm system. Under the ordimance granting the Nebraska Telephone company ite franchise in Council Bluffs the company s required to allow the city to wee its poles for its fire and police alarm sysem wires. This provision e mot in the other companles’ ordinances and for this reason it was deemed necessary to draft separate ordinances for the placing of the wires in underground conduits. ‘When the ordinance providing for the placing of telephone wires underground was Introduced, several of the aldermen ex- pressed themsely in favor of making this requirement general on all companies using electric wires. It is understood that the telophone company will not make any great objection to putting its wires unde ground, as it will tend to improve the ser- vice, but 1t {8 sald that the telegraph com- paniés and the motor company will vigor- ously protest against the passage of the ordinance affecting them. When the ordinance relative to the tele- phone wires going underground was first introduced into the city council, business men generally favored its passage and a petition signed by 100 of the leading busi ness men and firms was presented to the councll urging its passage. It is believed, that In view of the general sentiment fa- voring a start in the direction of getting the wires underground and the unsightly poles off the business streets of the city the aldermen will take favorable action on the telephone ordinance at least, Monday.

Walter Hodgson secured a marrlage Mcenee Wednesday entitling him to wed Elizabeth Woodruff, but the wedding did Bot take place. The license was returned yesterday to the clerk of the district court and marked “cancelled” on the marriage license docket. Hodgsen gave his age as 21 and that ot bis prospective bridc as 18. Yesterday a ! young woman said to be a sister of the | ung man called at Cleik Reed uire how it happened that a had been {ssued to her brother, who was under age, as was the girl he wished to marry, The Hister explained that both tamilles were opposed to the marriage and would do all in thelr power to prevent it. Clerk Reed informed the young woman that the wedding could be prevented if the marpage ljcense was retyrned to him before it was used. At the same time Mr. Reed suggested that it might be best | for the young mn to surrender the license, | as it was possible that he might get into \trouble for misrepresenting his age. The | laduice evidently bad the desired effect, as | #n hour later the young woman returned to | the office bearing with her the marriage leense, which was duly cancelled and so entered on the docket N.

AFTER PRESIDENCY AT AM—ES Board of Trustees Expeoted to Fill the Vacancy at Early Date. MANY NAMES MENTIONED FOR THE PLACE State Derives Almost a Quarter of a | Millfon Dollars from Fees in OMce of Secretary of State. (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Jan. 1.—(special)—The fact has been made known today that the committee of the board of trustees of the Towa State college at Ames entrusted with the selection of a president for the college, Is actively at work and that a report may be expected almost any time. A number of new candidates are in the field. W. Bayard Cralg, formerly chancellor of Drake uni- versity in this city, Is an active candidate He retired from Drake last spring and went to Colorado, where ho expected to engage in business. While a resident of Des Moines he was active in politics and an aggressive man in many ways. President C. E. Shel- ton of Simpson college is also an active candidate for the place and is said to have good backing. President Heston of the South Dakota Agricultural college Is still belng considered as one of the leading can- didates. Superintendent S. H. Sheakley of the Des Moines schools 1s being pushed for the place, and Prof. C. F. Curtiss of the college faculty is In the race. Nearly all talk about Becretary Wilson has been dropped, as it was understood that he only agreed to allow consideration of his name in connection with the presidency on con- dition that he be allowed to finish his work at Washington. The trustees of the college held a meet- ing at Ames last evening and approved the general plans for the central college build- ing at Ames. The architects were in- structed to immedlately complete the work- ing specifications and a committee was in- structed to procure bids as soon as possi- ble for commencing the work. State The total enroliment of the teachers for the State Teachers' association up to this time is only 850, which is ouly about two- thirds of the usual enrollment. The mat- ter of selecting the next president has been absorbing the attention of the teach- ers. J. T. Gray of Grundy county, who was prominently mentioned for president, withdrew and announced that he would be a candidate for state superintendent. In the meetings today the chief address was by Orville T. Bright of Chicago on “The Country Schools.” He advqeated many re- forms in school work in the country dis- tricts, especlally lopping off arithmetic and adding history and Englisi He also advo- cated a law to require better sanitary reg- ulations for rural schools. W. Witmer of this city presented to the assoclation plans for the work of the Loulsiana Pur- chase exposition for a school exhibit. This afternoon there was a memorial meeting for the late Dr. Beardshear, with short ad- dresses by a number of persons. This even- ing Lorado Taft, the sculptor, delivered a lecture. There were also college reunions and other meetings. The nomination committee for the State Teachers' assoclation tonigbt recommended the following officers: President, F, M. Witter, Muscatine; vice president, A. M. Coch of Sioux City, Amy Boggs of Water- loo, O. E. Smith of Shenandoah; executive committee, J. J. McConnell of Cedar Rap- 1ds. Temporary Fishway Over Dam. The news trom down the Des Molnes river i to the effect that the ice in the river formed a big gorge below the Bonaparte dam and this backed the water up so that fish have been coming over the dam in large numbers. This is the dam over which the state. has been quarreling for a long time with the owners. Last winter the legislature authorized the construction of a fishway over the dam, but when & jury was called to fix damages for the same the sum was fixed at $40,000: This blocked all proceedings. Now the ice has accom- plished what the leglslature fafled of ac- complishment. Big Fees for the State. Teachers' Association. The fee business for the state of lowa the last year has been greatly Increased by reason of the new legislation placed on the books last winter. The total amount of fees recelved in the office of secretary of te from the filing and recording of ar- ticles of incorporation was $213,748.58 for the year 1902. Last year the total was $54,139.50. There has been a substantial increase in the total amount of business done In the line of organizing new corpora- tions, but of the total for the year $136,- 515 18 to be credited directly to new logis- lation. owa Falls Road Finished. The lTowa Falls railroad, which has been under construction the last six months, has just been completed to within the city limits of Des Moines and trains will soon be operated over the line, making connec- tions with the Illinois Central road at lIowa Falls.

DENVER, Jan. 1.—Manila advices re- celved at the headquarters of the Depart- ment of the Colorado state that Hilario Placido, a Filipino who aided General Funs- ton in the capture of Aguinaldo, has been sentenced to lite imprisonment for mur- der. Details of the crime are lacking, but General Funston and other army officlals here who know the scout believe that tha crime was committed since he left the tsland, as ‘It does not seem possible that Placido would be called to account for something he was engaged in during the revolution. | Speaking of Placido, General Funston sald “He was never my spy and the only money he recefved from the United States was for the part he took in the capture of Aguinaldo. In 1899 he was severely | wounded, being shot through the lung. He recovered and again took an active part In the war. The following year he sur: rendered at the same time that General Garcla did. He was a prisoner for about three months and then I released him. He took the oath of alleglance and oftentimes of his own volition gave me information regarding the enemy. He was not a spy in the sense of the word that he was in the government's employ, nor did he ever go into their lines for information for our use. “When 1 arranged the plan for the cap- ture of Aguinaldo I took him along. He aid not know the object of the expedition until we were well under way. I then ex- plained my plans to him and he agreed to help me. He became the nominal com- mander of the expedition, as It was neces- sary to make natives believe that we Amer- icans were prisoners. When we reached the camp of Aguinaldo Placido rushed in and threw his former chief on the floor of the hut and held him there until we made him prisoner. Tor his part in the work he was pald by the government. POPULACE REVELS IN FLOWERS Pasadena is Bedecked with Klora's Gifts at Its Annual Tourna- ment of the Rose: PASADENA, Cal, Jan. 1.—Dense crowds of visitors and residents of Pasadena wit- nessed the Tournament of Roses proces- sion today which surpassed in every point of attractiveness any preceding tournament parade. In thé early morning hours the visitors began.pouring into the city. In spite of a special service the capacity of the rallroads was overtaxed. It is esti- mated that fully 40,000 people witnessed the floral parade. The processiom was a lengthy one, thirty minutes heing, conkumed by the flower-be- decked Horses, cartfages, automobiles, bi- cycles &nd carts to pass a given point. The floats with their handsome and artistic decorattons of Southern California’s wide varlety of floral productions made an im- pressive appearance as they glided smoothly through the eity. The Navajd and Moqui Indians, with their squaws and papooses, represented aborigi- nal America in the flower festival and at- tracted much attention. Band concerts, a polo game and an exhibition drill eoa- cluded the carnival.

The day was Ideal for the sport, the attendance was remarkably large, the entries were numerous and enthusiastic and finally the birds themsclves were of the gamest sort, there being not a single “'sit- ter' out of near 400 that were trapped. \ asily the featuro of the day was the shooting of George Toozer of Omaha, who | is comparatively a new man at the traps Mr. Toozer started the afternoon by shoot- ing five birds straight in practice, Then he entered upon his match race with Will Sherwood, twenty-five live birds, and dropped every one, defeating his opponent. Next Toozer entered the ten live bird event and made another perfect score. That made forty live birds straight, but the number was not the prettiest part Toozer's work. His cvery shot was sald by the old timers to be as well timed as they had ever seen, and he centered his Birds in a way which many said had not been | equalled here.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1—About 9,000 people gathered at Ingleside today to wit- ness the racing, despite the threatening skies. The rain held off, however, and the sun appeared during the latter part of the afternoon. The track was muddy, due to the heavy rain of last evening. The chief point of intecest was the New Year handicao, at a mile and an eighth, with a value of $700. Elght clever per- formers sported silk, and Articulate went to the post a favorite. The fleld was sent away In good order and The Fretter lead for a time, with Articulate in close attend- ance, followed by Claude. At the half Articulate showed in front, but did not maintain his position long. Around the far turn Reed made his move on Lord Badge, and passed the others. Ransch had been holding Corrigan in about fifth posi- tlon and_when the siretch was reached the son of Saln forged ahead and won from Slddons, who closed fast. Lord Badge tired and finished third.

WEINIG STAYS TWELVE ROUNDS Jack O'Brien Finds in Him an Oppo- of Whom He Cannot Easily Dispose. Illuminate | ran. nent BUFFALO, N. Y., Jan. 1—It took Jack O'Brien twelve rounds to dispose of Al Welnig before the International Athletic clab at Fort Erle today. The Buffalo man went down and ocut in the middle of the twelfth, after recelving a (terrific right uppercut gnd a shove which banged hi head against the floor and made his ari ing within ten seconds an impossibility. The contest was one-sided all the way through. Welnig did rot land a score of good blows, while O'Brien, with cutting swings, planted on the Buffalo man when- ever he pleased. But Welnig's well known powers of recuperation and abil- ity to stand punishment enabled him stand on his feet and take all the gruel ling without going down until the fin- ishing' punch. O'Brien fought the fastest twelve rounds ever seen before the Fort Erie club. He was in action every second, feinting, shift- ing, dancing in and out and piling in the blows on the husky “biker” and although he landed a sufficient number of times on Welnig’s jaw to win a dozen fights he seemed to'lack & blow powerful enough to kncek him - out. Weinlg was knocked down clean in the first round and was hanging on the ropes in the second and fourth rounds, but his strength held him until O'Brien had liter- ally cut his face to ribbons; closed both hi eyes and wore him down until he wa unable to protect himself or do damage to_his opponent. O'Brien did all the fighting, Welnig sel- dem attempting a lead. O'Erien finished without a scratch, and Welnig was all out, The betting was at prohibilive odds in O'Brien’s favor, though much money was won on Weinig' staying ten rounds, which he had backed himself to do. Three thousand peaple saw the fight. Three local preliminaries were put on. One resulted in a knockout and the other two were stopped by the referee. GANS WINS ON A DECISION Gus Gardner Fouls So Repeate Referee Takes a Hand a Awards Him the Hon NEW BRITAIN, Conn., Jan. 1.—After re- peatediy --mlns Gus Gardner of Phila- elphia, Referee John Willis gave Joe Gans of Balilmore the decision 'n the eleventh round of a bout eduled for twent rounds before the National Athletic clul today. Gans was on the offensive from the start, but Gardner danced around the ring from his opponent for five rounds, and showed no inclination to mix it up. In the fifth Gans succeeded in landing several good blows on Gardner with tellin effect. ‘In the sixth Gardner came back with the tactics which characterized the first few rounds of the bout and relied on his footwork to escape Gans. The referee repeatedly warned Gardner, who clinched at every cpportunity, but with little effect In the eleventh round Gardner caught Gans about the walst and threw him heavily to the floor. Referee Wiills im- medlately stopped the fight and gave the decision to Gans. Fifteen hundred persons witnessed the fight. Basket Ball Tonight.
