Urges Action at Once. “It you cannot boost, don't knock,” was | the keynote of most of the speeches. F. J. | Day set the ball rolling by suggesting that f | the organization be perfected at this meet- ing while the “spirit moved.” He pro- that the membership be of three | class2s, honorary members at $100 per an- governing members at $50 per annum b not signed | and general members at $25 per annum. The immediate organization of a commercial club he contended was nccessary, as there were several matters of importance to Council Bluffs which such a body should take hold of. As one instance he cited the possibility of the Iowa School for the Deaf being removed from Council Bluffs, owing to the destructive fire last summer. Former Alderman Lewis Hammer spoke enthusiastically in support of the move- ment and suggested that the club erect a Johnson-Shugart company four stories 1 i instead of three in height.

Sul- thought the business men of the city ought [to be willing to contribute suficiently to erect such a building. F. W. Beckman, editor of the Nonpareil, outlined the plan on which the Commercial club of Stoux City is conducted and sug- gested that the principal need of such an organization was a secretary who would be fully qualificd to act as such, Attorney Finley Burke followed Mr. Beckman and spoke at length urging that the organization be such that every man in the city engaged In business, whether on a large or a small scale, could-become a mem- ber and have an interest in its working. i Alderman McDonald spoke on the need of | such an organization and promised his hearty support, as did F. H. Hill and Pres- ident Hart of the First National bank. Mr. Hart took the occasion to suggest that the organization of such a club would result undoubtedly in the bringing of manufactur- eney M.

RALLY DAY FOR MISSIONS Bishop Moore ond Dr. Oldham the Central Figures of the Oce on, Bishop David H. Moore, in charge of the missionary work of the Methodist church in China, Japan and Corea, was the guest yesterday of the Mecthod of Council Bluffs, the occasion being “Mission Rally | Day" at the Broadway church. With Bishop Moore was Rev. W. F. Oldham, D. D., of the mission board. These two distinguished churchmen were guests of honor at lunch- eon at the Grand hotel, at which a number of the pastors of the Mothodist churches in this city and surrounding towns and others were present. Rev. A. E. Griffith, D. D., presiding elder of the Council Bluffs district, presided at the luncheon, at which short talks were made by Bishop Moore, Dr. Oldham and Dr. Jennings, presiding elder of the Omaha district. In addition to the pastors of the local Methodist churches there were pres- ent Rev. William Dudley, Rev. A. A. Wal- burn, Rev. W. M. Cable, Rev. W. L. Doug- Rev. Henry Miller, Rev. R. E. Shaw, Rev.

Walburn, who was on the morn- ing program but did not arrive in time, spoke on “Missions in South Africa.’ Dr. Oldham took the place on the program as- signed to Rev. R. N. McKalg of Sioux City, who was unable to be present, and spoke on “Why Are We Here?" Dr. Grifith told of what the Council Bluffs district was do- ing for the mission work, and Rev. Crombie Swith spoke on “The Young Life of the Church and Missions.” Bishop Moore made a short address in which he urged the expansion of the mis- sion work of the church. In the evening Bishop Moore lectured on “Eastern Asia,” telling of the work ir China, Japan and Corea. His address was most interesting, giving bis audience an insight into the life and history of those eastern countries which it had not learned betore. Speaking of Japan, he said its future was of vast importance to this country and that it was the duty of the church in this coun- | try to see that was in the path. Corea, he said, out religion and that its people extended a warm welcome to missionaries. He em- phasized the importance of taking Chris- tianity into China, with its immense pop- ulation, and concluded his lecture with a strong appeal for aid in the missionary work and especially for contributions to- ward the support of native teachers, While in Council Bluffs Bishop Moore and Dr. Oldham were guests of Mr. and Mrs. J.

J., Jan. 14.—1In the United States cireuit court, district of New Jersey, a decision was filed today in favor of the Western Union Telegraph company restrain- Ing the Pennsylvania railroad from inter- fering with the company's lines along the road. The injunction is made permanent. The decision, as handed down, recites the following United States statute, enacted July 24, 1866: Any telegraph company now organized, or which may hereafter be organized under the laws of any state, shall have the right to construct, maintain and operate tele- graph lines ‘over and along any of the military or post roads of the United States which ‘have or may hereafter be declared such by law, but such lines of telegraph ehall be 8o constructed and maintained so as not to interfere with the ordinary travel on such military roads All rallroads are declared by law to be post roads. The decislon continues. While the question here at issue has not had judicial interpretation by the court of last resort, the statute of July 24, 1866, as applicable to post roads, has ceveral times been before the courts'for their construc- tion. Tt has been held that because of this' law one company having exclusive privileges under the étate law cannot pro- hibit the erection of iclegraph lines of another company on the pcet rnads of the | United States where suck oiiler companies have accepted the provisions of the act of July 24, 1865, when those In control of such roads have given their assent It hae also been decided in United States against Unlon Pacific Railroad Company “that no railroad company owning a post road of the United States, over which inte state commerce is carried on. can col of July 24, 1866, bind | itself by agreement to ex from its | roadway any telegraph company incorpor- ted under the laws of a scate, wWhich ac- epts the provisions of the the use of that dway such manner as will not | ordinary travel thereon The declding judge, in closing, said: In view of the facts presented and for the reason stated, I have decided to make permanent this injunction. In this way | the defendants will have an opportunity to appeal to the next term of the circult court of appeals, while, should the rule be dis- charged, the complainant would h: e no | appeal and the Injury to its property, which ‘ is threatened, would have been accom- plished before the case had been properly considered.

REPORT RICHARDS' LOCATION IS KNOWN Complicated Litigation Over the Rich- ardson Estate in Shelby County— Increase in State Institutions. Inmates at (From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Jan. 14.—(Special)—A conference was held today between the ex- ecutive committee of the department of ag- riculture and W. C. Whiting of Monona county, chairman of the agricultural com- mittee of the Towa Louisiana Purchase Ex- position commission, in regard to methods of securing agricultural exhibits for the state of Iowa to be taken to the exposition at St. Louls next year. It was recognized that many of the exhibits will have to be of this year's growing on the Iowa farms and that preparations must be commenced at once. To accomplish this it was decided that the exposition commission would make offers of speclal additional premiums to be added to the etate falr premiums for prod- ucts that are suitable o be kept over until next year and to be forwarded to St. Louis. In this way it is belleved that Iowa will be able to gather a notable agricultural ex- hibit for the exposition. Tbe co-operation of the State Agricultural college is also sought In this work, and Mr. Whiting went to Ames today to consult with the men at the experiment statton. The annual stock, grain and dairy school is now almost cono'uded there and preparations for this season’s work are under way. In addition to this work, Mr. Whiting and others of the commission will attend farmers institutes and other meetings and present the necds of the exposition commission In regard to exhibite. Richards’ Location is Known. E. R. Mason, clerk of the United States circuit court in this city, has received in- formation from the wife of W. 8. Richards, formerly deputy marshal, stating the loca~ tion of Richards. It is alleged that Rich- ards is wanted for complicity in the rob- bery of Sullivan at Hamilton last week and that a warrant Is in the hands of Sherift Bybee of Marion county for his arrest. Ma- son declares that if he is convinced that a warrant is actually out for Richards he will be glad to furnish information as to where he can be found, but declines as yet to be- lleve thay there is any warrant for his ar- rest. It Is now stated that Richards is out on a secret mission as a detective. It In generally belleved he will not return, as | there s an accumulation of charges against | him, one relating to an cstate which has not been settled up and his alleged failure to account for money in his hands. The previous good reputation of Richards fs all that saves the public from generally con. demning him. His friends persist In refus. ing to believe him guilty and the case grows in mystery. Increase in Inmates. The monthly reports of state institutions show that on January 1 last there were in institutions under the Board of Control a total of 7,601 inmates, an increase ot 116 In the month of Decewber. The number of inebriates in the dipsomania wards of the bospitals was 173. The total payments from all funds dusing the month of December was $179,144.28. The report from the prison school at Fort Madison show that there are a larger number of illiterates at the prison now than for many years. The chaplain re- ports that there are now thirty unlettered persons in the prison school. This is in part accounted for by the fact that there are many negroes in the school and they are generally fresh from the south, where they have not’had opportunities for educa- tion. Richardson e Appealed. | Richardson | fust got into the supreme court. Richard- i son wes an eccentric {ndividual who disap- peared suddenly and was undoubtedly mur- | dered for his money. years in Shelby county, lending money and getting rich, but retusing to do business ex- cept personally. sersing the notes against him, he made out his notes in the | nelghbors. When he disappeared the ad- | ministrator got track of his estate by mak- ing personal inquiries among all his neigh- bors and turning up about $75,000 of prop- erty, for much of which the estate had nothiag to show. A controversy arose over land titles on this account and the case comes now to the supreme court for deter- mination on a number of points. Telephone War Ended. The city council has rescinded a former resolution cordering the lowa telephones taken from public bufldings. This was dono at the time of the strike against the local telephone companies and after the Mutual had acceded to the demands of the strikers. Now the Towa company has ylelded to the strikers and compromised matters in a way entirely satisfactory to cll. The fire fnsur- ance agents and business men demanded that the telephones be replaced in the fire stations cf the city, eince it was shown that the insurance companies had increased rates materially on account of the r moval of the 'phones. This will be done at once and the war on the telephones will be over. Guard Against Plague. It is probable that Iowa will be repre- sented at the national meeting of boards of health at Washington next week, when the matter of guarding against the introduction of the bubonic piague will be taken up. Secretary Kennedy has recelved work that the meeting will be held next Monday. The Iowa State Board at its last meeting con- demned the San Francisco board for its action in denying the existence of the plague in Chinatown, and this condemna- tion has been general throughout the coun- try.
