City Will Wait Outcome of Suit No Dilpolitidn to Sell Water Bonds Until Courts Have Passed on Their Legality. J Although Judge Smith McPherson decided the sult brought in the federal court by the C. B. Nash company to restrain the city from issuing the proposed $i00,000 water works bonds in favor of the city, and dissolved the injunction secured by the plaintiff compeny, it.is not expected that any effort will be made by the municipal authorities to sell the bonds until the ltig: tion is finally determined. The fact that the C. B. Nash company Intends to appeal trom Judge McPherson's ruling acts as an estoppel to the sale of the bonds, as the city officlals realize that as long as the question of the validjty of the fssue is not definitely determined it is doubtful it the bonds could be disposed of at any price. City Treasurer True {5 opposed to trying to sell the bonds in face of an appeal and is of the opinion that it would be prac- tically impossible to find a buyer for them 50 long as there is a suit pending against thy igsue. “The Nash company stii has the right to appeal its case, and so long as there Is a possibility of this I do not think it wise to issue the bonds. It will take only a short time to dispose of the securities when they aré once feady for sale and I do not see the advantage of offering them before the Whole matter s settied. At the best, buyers of bonds would agiee to handle the issue only under the cordition that the degision of the cirgult ccurt was sustalned by the court of apr peals,” Mr. True sald. | Mr. True is also of the opinfon that the bonds, once thelr validity s determined, could be sold at 4 or at the most 4% per cent, and that the city council should rescind its action in deciding that the bonds should bear § per cent interest. The matter will probably coine up in some form at the meeting of the city council to- night, as City Solicitor Kimbail s expected to make a report of the final signing of the decree in favor of the city last Friday by Judge McPherson. FIRE FROM OVERHEATED STOVE Cottage of Peter Donahue Damaged— Fire in Saloon. The rear part of a one-story frame cot- tage on Avenue D, near the corner of Eighth street, owned by Peter Donahue and occupled by Mr. and Mrs. Ed Green- lee was seriously damaged by fire at a late hour Saturday night. The blaze, whicn was caused by an overheated stove In the house, started during the absence of Green- lee and his wife who were attending a dance but a block aw They did not| |learn of the fire until after' the depart- ment had extinguished It. When they left home the Greenlees neglected to close the draughts on the stove and It became 80 hot that it set fire to the wall of the kitchen, The fire had | made considerable headway before it was discovered and by the thne the firemen reached the place the whole back part of | the cottage was In flames. The firenien | | experienced some delay in getting water on | the building as two of the nearby hy- | drants were found to be out of commission | by reason of the “stuffing boxes" belng frozen. The damage was sald to be cov- ered by insurance. Shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday morning | the saloon at the corner of South Main and Btory streets conducted: by John Mc- | Farlan was on fire. Gasoline leaking from the lighting plant had caught and a serious | | blaze would probablyhave resulted had it | | mot been discovered shortly after it staried. | | The firemen used the hand chemical and | except for the scorching of the bar front | and a small hole burned in the floor, the | place was not damaged. Fire, sald to have beon caused by an overhested stove, destroyed the Rock Is- land railroad yard office at Thirteenth ave- nue and Eighth sireet about 9:30 o'clock lasi night. The bullding, a small frame struc- ture, burned iike tinder, and by the time the fire department reached the place it was a muss of flames. Gerner's, the store beautiful, 411 B'way.

JAMES BURGE FROZEN TO DEATH Council Bluffs Man's Body Found in Mills County. The body of James Burge of this city, who started last Monday morning.to walk to the home of his brother-in-law, Willlam Tinnell, living about thirteen miles south of Council Bluffs, near Folsom, In Milis county, was found Saturday, frozen stiff, beside a shock of cornstalks in a fleld on the farm of John Rist, near the Tinnell place. It ls supposed that Burge, having lost his way in the snowstorm of last Mon- day night, sought sfelter behind the shoek of cornstalks, which was about 300 yards from the road, The body was discovered by Rist Saturday while hauling hay. The place where the body was found being in Mills county It was takeh to Glenwood. Burge, who was about 55 years old, lived with his brothers-in-law, John Phillips, 1508 South Ninth street, and Benjamin Tinnell, in this city.

About three hours later he stopped at the home of George Jones, which is a little over two miles from the Tinnell place. He had taken the wrong road and was glven directions how to reach the place he sought. Nothing more was seen or heard of him until his frozen body in a sitting position was found beside the shock of cornstalks by Rist. Phillips and other relatives on notified of the finding of the body went Saturday evening to Glenwood, where it was stated the burlal would probably take plece. | Last summer while unloading a car of rails Burge was severely injured by one of the ralls falling cn his foot. Ie placed the matter of a claim against the raliroad company in the hands of Attorney Kremont Benjamin. No suit had been brought, as Mr. Benjamin expected to secure a settle- ment from the railroad out of court. A few days before he left to visit his brother-in. law in the country Burge called on Mr. Benjamin and told him of his intention to g0 to the country on a visit and sald he would keep Mr. Benjamin appraised of his whereabouts so that the latter could reach him in the event of the rallroad settling his claim. Bankers Talk; Preachers Silent being Dr. Felix Adler of New York Thinks Pulpit is Becoming Obsolete in United States.

BOSTON, Jan. 10.—When voting Boston goes to the polls Tuesday, “finis” will be written to the greatest and most spectac- ular municipal campaign that this city has known for years The election marks a de- parture for Boston, and it is to be held un- der the new clLarter, which was framed with a view of making elections nonparti- san. The candidates are named by petition and the ballots will bear no party designa- tions, merely the candidates’ names and home addresses. As a result ther: has been unusual in- terest, and monster rallies at which al- most unexampled enthusiasm has been dis- played, have followed one another In rapld succession. One of the candidates, James J. Storrow, who resigned from the presi- dency of the Chamber of Commerce to en- ter the campaign, Is a man of wealth, and the standard-bearer for the so-called “‘up- Iift" force. Another, ex-Mayor John F. Fitzgerald, nickramed the “Little Gen- eral,” has been on the defensive practically all the time. He has pleaded for re-clection to free himself of the stigma which at- tached itself to his administration through exposure of graft among some of the sub- ordinates in the city hal. The present mayor, Geéorge A. Hibbard, has made a strong appéal for re-election on party lines, despite the evident intention of the new charter: to eliminate party poli- tics from municipal government. Nathaniel H.
