The new city night after listening to the mayor's message and con- disposed o¢ large amount of routine and other matters | in a Lusiness-like manner and with con- | siderable dispatch several important matters were referred (o the committee of the whole and a meeting to codsider thém will be held Thursday afternoon. At the meeting of the committee of the whole the recommendations and sugges- tlons contained in the mayor's message will be considered. Mayor Malomey's Messnge. The mayor in his message said: To the Members of the City Councll, Geutlemen: As this 1s our NIrst meetinyg oI the new councii, where wiere will be any ‘wusiness tiausacyzd @and Drougnt up, 1 Wish 10 present to you the 10/0WINE qut ons, nen, in my judgment, demana im meaiate attention kirst, one of the matters which properly comes betore you 1ov you consiueration, 1 the question of waterworks. 'WNis ques- ton has been agitated from every stand- point 1or the lusc ix years. ‘Lhere is no re@son, In my judgment, wny the system | shoula’ not be linmeaiately extended to the hil ana bowom disuicts, to artord them Lure protection and waler service. How this is to be accompished shouid be determined by you. ‘The Lirst cosideration is natura.ly whether we have the funds to acquire u plant for the city at tne present time. That matter is in court now, but how long it will ke to settle I don’t' know. The second, how can we acquire that plant most ad- vantageously anda speedily tor the city. To this question you shouid give your early attention and your best business judgment, to the end that the present unfortunate situation can come to an end, and that a stalstactory one to yourself and to our people. As to Indian creek, my position is well known. 1 have recommended in the past that the system of tunne.ng at the edge of the city limits is the only feasible way to dispose of this matter. The last council's action in the matter consisted in Instruct- the city engineer to make surveys and find the cost of constructing a tunnel. It is important that this work should be im- mediately completed, and If, in your judg- ment, the action of the past meets with your' approval, I believe that immediate action should be taken by you gentlemen. As 10 the extension of the street car sys- tem, the growth of our city and the wants of the people have made the extension of the street car system a necessity, and for that reason the council should insist upon such extensions as are necessary. In reference to repaving Broadway, this important matter should not be delayed. Last year the motor company in making repairs at the intersection of Pearl street d Broadway, on a request from the mayor and cfty council, replaced the old granite with Purington block, and this is such & vast Improvement over the uneven rock pavement that it met with the ap- proval of the business men of the city. I, therefore, recommend to you, gentlemen of the council, that you will take such imme- dlate action in this matter counell last his appointments a of the business Interests of the city. In the next two years there will be a good many imporiant matters come up for your conslderation, in the shape of im- and things of that kind. 1 ‘would recommend that any proposition be- fore the council, amounting to over or any ordinance granting right of or anything of that kind, should be laid over for one week after It presented to the ;"ouncll, before there is any discussion on The mayor announced his reappointment of the followin City physician, Dr. R.

City Auditor MeAneney in a communica- tion to_the councll warned them against any overdrafts in- the appropriations for the malntenance of. the. different municipal departments for the ensuing fiscal year. City Auditor’s Report. City Auditor McAneney's communication was as follows: I have, with assistance of the retir- ing city councfl, attempted to clean up as far as possible all claims against the city to date, and you gentlemen will have prac- tically all of the §85,380 of general fund ap- propriation at your disposal for the ex- penses of the departments as enumerated in_the appropriation ordinance. Numerous causes the last fiscal year brought about an expense considerably in excess of the appropriation as made at the beginning of the year; this was taken care of by a balance in the general fund, which has been diminished gradually year by year until we are today up against the antici- pated income of 355,000, with no surplus worthy of consideration to reckon on. In plain English.. the appropriation as made covers every dollar that the city can count on in the way of income, the amounts assigned to the different departments be- ing, an equitable division of the sum total we'hope to realize for the year, and ap- plua. to the departments for the same pe- riod. The expenses’ of each department have to be held down for each month x:“.l reazonablé’ portion of the' total appropr! tion for the year, and I ask your aesl ance as well as that of the different de- partments in keeping the expenditures down 10 the figures as. represented by the ap- propriation, as it will be an unpleasant duty on my part to have to refuse to draw any warrants beyond the mmounts as ap- propriated. Eagles to Give Fair, A committee representing the drill team of the Councll Blufts aerle, Fraternal Order of Eagles requested permission to oc- upy North Main street from Broadway to the bridge over Indlan creek and Mynster street between Main and Scott streets for of & street falr and carnival during the week of May 21 to 28, The com- mittee stated that the consent of all the abutting property owners had been secured and that the streets to be %0 occupled would not be enclosed. The permission was granted. It s understood that the proceeds of the carnival are to be devoted 10 the purchase of uhiforms for the drill team, which contemplates taking part in the drill contests at the meeting of the grand aerle in St. Louls in August. The annual reports of several of the city officers were recelved, but not read. They were referred to the proper committees. Money Put on Streets. According to the report of Street Com- missioner Flood the sum of §18,186.90, which Includes $568, the value of poll tax worked out, was expended upon the streets of the city during the fiscal year ending March 31 .

The fines in state cases In the county treaurer amounted to $235.60. | The sum of $81.76 was received for milk licenses. Electrician's Report. The report of City Electriclan McKinley owed fees collected to the amount and that the expenses of his depart- ment for the year had been $2,344.11. The additional expense last year was caused by the erection of the new central fire station, necessitating the transter of the fire alarm system from the old to the new buliding. In his report Mr. McKinley recommends new relays and reglsters for the police alarm system and certain repairs to the police call boxes. Poll Tax Collector G. W. Thomson's re port shows that he collected $1,930 in cash and that 48 persons worked out their tax at the rate of $2 per day.

His fees for welghing amounted to $465 and the sale of scale tickets pro- duced $164. His expenses for drayage, etc., amounted to $32.09. Board of Equalization. A request from the Board of Fire and Police commissioners that it be given the use of the office of the city electrician in the city hall and that this officlal and his paraphernalia be transferred without further delay to the quarters Intended for his use in the new fire station, was referred to the committee of the whole. Clerk Casady announced that Assessor Hardin expected to have his books ready 50 that the city councll could begin on its work as a board of equalization Thursday evening. The clerk was instructed to advertise for bids on supplies and printing. At a meeting of the Board of Health following the city council session Dr. Charles H. Bower was re-elected ocity health officer. Members Harding and Hub- bard voted for Dr. Willlam Greene. FIRST JURY CASE OF THE TERM Judge Whecler Holds Court Session in This City. Judge O. D. Wheeler, who held court for Judge Woodruff at Logan last week while the latter was he presiding over the hearing in the removal proczedings against Major Richmond, impaneled a jury yes- terday for the trial of the suit of John A. Moyer against the Council Bluffs Nursery company and others. This sult involves a claim arising out of a purchase of frult trees and_other nur It bas been fn”the cot and has once been to the supreme court. This 18 the first Jury case for this term and when the members of the panel ap- peared in court Judge Wheeler in his talk to them sald he expected the jury work to occupy the time of the court until about the middle of June, If not later. Beveral of the jurors asked to be ex- cused and two were excused for sickness, but the others will have to serve at least part of the time. Judge Wheeler told the Jurors he fully appreciated the fact that farmers were needed at home at this time and sald he would try to arrange it so that jury service would not be a serious hardship. He emphasized the thought that Jjury service was a public duty which every citizen owed in exchange for the benefits of government and that it was necessary to secure men of standing and intelligence to amct as jurors. In cases where excuses were asked because jurymen felt they were imperatively needed on their farms or in, their business, the court arranged for pri- vate conferences, at which the situation of cach juror could be discussed and such arrangements be made as would enable him to serve at least part of the term without serious loss. Mrs. Kate M. Biegel filed suit for di- vorce from John J. Blegel, to whom she was married in Council Bluffs on August 19, 1897. Mrs. Slegel bases her sult on charges of cruel and inhuman conduct and asks to be awarded the custody of their child, & son, aged 4 years. Judge Wheeler granted a temporary Injunction restraining the defendant from interfering with his wite's possession of the child pending the determination of the suit. N. R. WILCOX.

They were John Jones of New South Wales, Stewart La- mont of Canada and Benjamin R. Me- | Guire, a talented member of the bar of Brooklyn, N. Y. In response to invitations Lamoni, Ia., was chosen as the place for the next conference to be held.
