Night, ¥eq, DEVOTE EVENING TO WATER City Couneil Struggles With Various Plans to Relleve the Sttuation, Alexander's Art will hold its Despite the attractions of the opening day ©f the street fair and carnival and the fact that it was Labor day the city council at 1ts regular monthly meeting last night did not adjourn after allowing the bills as had been anticipated. Flood conditions de- manded some Action and the aldermen de- cided that it was a case of business before pleasure this time. Alderman Lovett, as the representative ©of the residents of the Sixth ward, had the floor & great part of the meeting. At his suggestion it was declded to construct a culvert three feet wide and three deep un- der the tracks of the Illinols Central rail- road on Eighteenth street directly south of Avenue A. This, It Is thought, will assist materially in draining the large submerged ares north of Broadway, Mr. Lovett re- ported that he had succeeded In. getting the motor campany to make & number of ditches under its tracks on Avenue A be- tween Bixteenth and Eighteenth streets and this had assisted greatly in {mproving con- ditions in that district. Alderman Lovett also succeeded in se- curing the consent of the council to the placing of a five-foot brick culvert under Broadway at Seventeenth street, as a perm- anent outlet for the water north of there. This culvert will be constructed as soon as the flood subsides sufficlently to permit it. ‘Alderman Casper opposed the five-foot cul- vet and urged that a twenty-four-inch tile sewer would be sufficlent, with the present sewer, Alderman Casper sdggested & plan for re- Meving the flood copditions. It was that the city seoure the use of the dredge now at Lake Manawa and use it en Indian Creek, and that the Northwestern raflroad be required to raise its bridges at Eleventh street at least two feet. This, he thought, could be accomplished at an expense not to exceed $,00. This, with the raising of cer- tain of the city bridges, would, In his opin- fon, splve the flood problem. His sugges- tion went a glimmering, as the other alder- men did not belleve it teasible. W. H. Kimball of the Kimball Elevator eompany, and Willlam Walker of the Nov- elty Manufacturing company, appeared be- fore the council and asked that some steps be taken to drain off the water in the vi- clfity of thelr plants. Mr. Kimball stated that his foundry had been shut down since the flood on account of the water, and Mr. Walker sald that several of his workmen were sick at home on account of inhaling the fetld odors from the stagnant waters, They suggested that the water could be drained it the Rock Island and Burlington roads would construct culverts under thelr embankments. The council decided that in order to get quick action on the raiiroads in the matter of constructing these pro- posed culverts was but to refer the matter to the Board of Health, which has the power to make any orders it may deem necessary for the public health. At the request of Alderman Fleming the city engineer was Instructed to at once sive his personal attentlon to the condi- tions prevailing in the district bounded by Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets and Second and Bighth avenues, and devise some plan whereby the water can be drained off In answer to an inquiry from the council City Physiclan Houghton said that the use of lime would be but a temporary ex- pedient to purify conditions now prevalling in the submerged distriocts. The area un- der water 18 50 great that Dr. Houghton id he falled to see what could be done except to drain the water off as speedily 88 possible and then flll the low-lying lots. City Clerk Phillips reported the city en- gineer had made a tabulation of the paving bids and that E. A, Wickham's was the lowest. On motion of Alderman Huber the matter of awarding the contract was de- ferred for one week. He stated he had been asked to secure this postponement by & number of interested property owners, The councll adjourned to next Monday and will meet as committee of the whole BLUFFS. LABOR TAKES ITS DAY OFf Ezereises atLak e Manawa Attract a Orowd of Two Thonsand. PROF, DAVIS ON CAPITAL AND LABOR Congressman Smith Makes a Short Talk in Which He Gives the Labor Unions Some Advies The labor unions of Council Blufts held their Labor day exercises yesterday after- noon at Lake Manawa, where a crowd of nearly 2,00 people assembled to listen to the addresses and enjoy the program of sports, Prof. Claude Davis of Drake university, the principal speaker of the afternoon, de- livered an eloguent and interesting address. He recefved quite an ovation on being in- troduced by Mayor Dell G. Morgan, who acted as master of ceremonies. Prof. Davis took the stand that there was no conflict between capital and labor and that thers never has been. The man who talks about antagoniem between labor and capital, that is, labor and capital in them- selves, he sald, sither talks out of ignor- ance or is a demagogue, who talks for the dvancement of his own selfish Interests. Capital cannot get along without labor and labor cannot get along without capital any more than life can continue without the light of the sun. Capital Is as abso- lutely necessary for the progress of the laborer as it is utterly impossible for cap- ital to be efficlent without the workingman. The hackneyed expression, “capital and labor,” Prof. Davis asserted, was mean- ingless. To make It understood a third term had to be supplied, and that was “management,” which introduces the hu- man element. The first two factions, he declared, were friends in thelr natural re- lationship, but man in his exercise of bad management 18 the relentless foe of both. Good .management of corporations and unlons he held to be the solution of present difficulties, and, while advocating arbitra- tion as the foundation of good manage- ment, Prof. Davis asserted that, in his opinion, arbitration was but a temporary resort for the settlement of labor troubles and that the permanent basis of adjust- ment would have to be found In the re- liglous principle of the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you would that others do unto you." Congressman Walter I. Smith, who re- celved a most flattering reception, made a short address, in which he took the stand that the American laborer, while recelving higher wages and working shorter hours than those of European countries, should avold seeking to reduce ' production by adopting the European scale of a day's work. In support of this he referred to the report of a German expert in the shoe business, which was to the effect that, while American workmen labored shorter hours and recelved higher pay than those of German, thelr labor was so much more productive that the actual cost of produc- tion in America was far less than in Ger- many. The same rule, he said, applied to other lines of manufacture, and in this, he declared, lies the superiority of the Amer- lcan workman, Program of Sports. At the close of the exercises the erowd enjoyed the program of sports and watched the ball game between the Eagles and the Smiths, which was won by the les by a score of 6 to 0, This 15 the summary of the sports: Men's 100-Yard Dash—W.

Previous to holding thelr exercises at Manawa the labor organizations united in & parade with the Elks and the street fair and carnival attractions, The parade was @ popular attraction and was witnessed by thousands of people, Who lined the streets along the line of march. The parade was headed by Chlet of Folice Tibbits and President Drake of the Trad and Labor assembly, followed by a platoon of ‘mounted police In command of Captain Maltby. Following the police came the carpenters’ . unlon with sixty men, the clgarmakers with twenty, the Typographi- cal union with twenty-two, the bricklayers with forty, the painters with thirty and the barbers with twenty, The union men made an attractive showing In their uniforms and regulia, Following the labor unions came the members of the Council Bluffs lodge of Elks, 100 strong, headed by Covalt's band The Elks wore white caps with purple bands and carrled white and purple canes. The city officals and speakers were In car- rlages and the rear of the ecolumn was brought up with the attractions from the carnival and about thirty industrial floats, Including several from the street falr “ken- try stor.” CARNIVAL STARTS OFF WELL Large Crowd Aft Harry oon and Evenin to Grace the Opening Day.

Over 200 people were on the grounds yesterday afternoon and this num- ber was doubled quring the evening Al that is needed, the committee declared last ter, evening, to beat last year weather and Indications are that the of- ficlals who preside over the weather bureau will keep the rain off until after Saturday night. The commercial exhibits this year exceed those of last in every respect and the booths are much more elaborately dec- orated. Not only are the decorations of the booths more elaborate, but no two are allke, and this diversity, which was lacking last year, makes this feature of the street fair so much more attractive, Starting from the Eiks' club house the booths on what is termed Industrial street are occupled as follows: Administration booth, the Dally Nonpareil, the Peregoy & Moore company, Daughters of the Amer- loan Revolution, Keller-Farnsworth Furni- ture company, B.

The street fair was the scene of consid- erable roughness last night, owing to the unrestricted use of confettl. Many people, rather than be subjected to the roughness of the rowdy element, left the grounds. Young rowdies, armed with brooms and feather dusters, paraded the grounds at will, unmolested by the officers, and young women were forced to submit to having confett!, much of it picked up off the street and mixed with dust and gravel, rubbed Into thelr faces. Several young rowdles, not content with being permitted to use confett!, supplled themselves with axle grease and rubbed this into the faces of young girls who were without escorts and could not resent the insult. Owing to the many complaints made last night, the carnival management daclded that no brooms or feather dusters would be permitted during the remainder of the week and rowdyism will not be tolerated. The sale of individual tickets for yester- day reached 5,600, and this, with the season tickets dlsposed of, shows that the ‘at- tendance reached the 8,000 mark.

BIGAMY CHARGE AGAINST PREACHER Two Robbers Bound to Get the O Guest Make Sec- ond Attempt After Delug Driven Of. of a Hotel (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, Sept. 7.—(Special)—The Labor day exercises were sifghtly inter- fered with In Des Moines by a heavy rain which fell In the forenoon, compelling a postponement of the parade for over an hour. Despite this the parade was of the usual length and character, about 4,00 per- sons participating, with about sixty difter- ent crafts represented. There were three bands in the line and the women who are members of the unfona rode In carriages. The parade passed through the principal streets and in the afternoon the laboring men went to the state fair grounds, where a program of sports was carried out There was no speaking. Quite a number of the members of the unions went to Colfax, where they participated in a demonstration addressed by Governor Cummins, who spoke to a arge crowd and touched upon labor topies. He avowed himself, as he has been In the past, a strong friend of laboring men and a bellever in the virtue of organization, well directed and fairly conducted, for the betterment of the con- ditions of the laboring men. Ace Information was filed before a justice of the peace today by Julia C. Lomack against her husband, Rev. F. C. Lomack, accusing him of bigamy. The warrant has not yet Dbeen merved, because he cannot be found. Mrs. Lomack, who was Mrs. Julla Tyler and was married to Lomack last December, alleges that he had previously been wedded to Mamfe Garland in 4 and had never been divorced fram her, and therefore that his second marriage was bigamous. Bhe sued him last week for divorce and he also brought suit for divorce, Lomack carries a bullet fired into him by Al Me- Kinney, a jealous rival for the hand of Mrs, Tyler, last year, and Lomack at one time served in the penitentiary for a orimé committed when a boy. He is pastor of the African Baptist church In this city and hes had a stormy ocareer, but it had not been before known that he could be accused of bigamy, Held Up in & Hotel.

The room of Imlay was entered when he was asleep and he found the man going through his pockets, He sprang from the bed and grappled with the intruder. A flerce fight ensued and just as the robber was about to smash Imlay's head with a pitcher his pal appeared and pulled him out of the room. The palr then imme- dlately tried to rob Murthe in his room, but a fight followed there, and, although the pitcher used s & weapon was broken over Murthe's head, he drove the robbers Two strangers, giving the names of Kinney and O'Conner, have been ar- tlon of Bigamy for Preacher. Bullets Fly in Boarding House, Miss Julia Devlin and Mrs. Snyder are in the city jail as a result of an alleged shoot- Ing affray Sunday night at a boarding house at 506 Grand avenue, The detalls of the affalr, as alleged, are that Miss Devlin fired a revolver at Mrs. Snyder on the stairs of the boarding house at the above number early Sunday night, because Mrs. Snyder joked her concerning a fight which is sald to have occurred iast week between the women, The bullet went wide of the mark and Mrs. Snyder is clalmed to have knocked the revolver from the hands of the younger woman before a second shot could be fired, when the inmates of the house secured and held Miss Devlin until Officer Deford arrived. Both women were taken to jall, to await action of the au- thorities. Insurance Ci is Due. Information has been recelved here that Judge Smith McPherson of the southern district of Iowa will be In Des Moines about the middle of the week for the pur- pose of delivering his decision in the ma ter of the Insurance compact case, which was submitted to him some time ago. The sult is oue brought by the companies in the Insurance combine in Iowa to have de- clared null and void the Iowa anti-compact law, which has been on the statute books for several years. The law has never been applied, but the éxistence of the law has rendered It a little dificult for the com- panies to maintaln - agreements among agents with reference to rates and com- missions, and they desire it to be declared Megal. ¥ Ra d Promotion Goes On, Offices have just been opened in this city for the Continental Rallroad company, with ‘Willlam H.

It is & revival of an old project, but in new hands, and there is an air of confidence about the whole movement, though Des Moines men are not fully fhformed as to the plans that have been made. It is announced that the defi- nite plans will soon be announced.
