At the meeting of the hoird of public works
ycstcrJay afternoon C. E. Sauiics , agent of
Iho Barber Asphalt company , said bethought
Abound been ill-uentod by the board , and in
k letter to the chuirnnn asked that the mem
bers of that body , the socictary , the city en
gineer and a short-hand reporter bo admitted ,
Bnd that all members of the press and others
lie excluded.
Major Furay stated that the board was not
B star-chamber body and ho did not think the
booting should bo executive.
Mr. Squires said ho could make some state
ments that should not be given to the public.
Bald ho :
"I want to tell jou that some men Imvo
icon Imposed upon , aud I do not think it is
anything in which the public can bo Inter-
A \ otons taken , nnil It wns decided tlmt
If Mr. Squires luul anything to say It bhoulcl
Lo paid with open doors.
"If thut Is your decision , gentlemen , I have
botnlng tosuy. "
" .My God , " said Mr. Klorstcad , "if any
thing has gone wrong lot us Iciioiv it , "
" 1 wimtto make my stntoincnt to yon , gen-
( loincn , nnd then If jouaut to plvo It to the
i > ross you tun do so , but I will not. "
Unou motion of Mr. Turay , Mr. Squlros
Una"requested to present his charges in writ-
Ins , If ho hnd nny.
" 1 have been imposed upon in the most
Sannmblo manner and by tbo iiibcul in
existence , but I Ho not want to domiciling
lo disgrace his family , vhleh I would do U i
gave my Information to tlio public.
"llie'ro Is an opinion , " suld City Engineer
Tillson. "tlmt when n man becomes n
bublio ofllclftl ho becomes a niscnl ,
Now , If there Is an j thing I
nm in favor of meeting Inform
ally , hear tbo clmrgcs , aud if they
jro of a serious notion , giving them to the
public : but , if not. It Is nothing in which the
[ mbllcls Interested. "
"Now , " siildMnjor Furay , "I hate to ov
iludo the press , but to set at this I guess wo
Kill Imvo to do so. "
"You don't cwo the press nny apology , "
> nld Mr. Squires.
A\oto was tukou , the reporters were ox-
eluded nud the board went Into executive
lesslon.
The host of Interested hangers-on met the

wr of Mary's lambs , hum ; lound the cioor
Until the piInclp.ilsithlii the room should
appear.
Tin : Brn reporter found n convenient win-
Bo w w hich opened luilh cctly in the board room
Ind through this wns unuhlcd to hear almost
tvoithlng that \\iia said the lilloho ro-
tnninvd in the shadow of ouo of the angles of
llio building.
Mr. Squires rose and addressed the board ,
the eyes of every member of which
were east upon tlio lloor , r.ach mem
ber seemed to feel that n startling
nnnouncement wns to bo made , nud It was
rouio minutes before their ( eutui-cs met the
puzc of the accuser ,
4 Mr. Bquiivs1 voleo trembled nt the
outset , his fnco Mas pulo , but ho
retained his cotniwsuro throuubout the ordeal -
deal nnd unfolded nU charts with directness
knd force. Ilosidd that us the ngent of the
Harbor aspbnltum iiaring conjpany ho
had been upprouchiM by a contempt
ible Bcoundrel who , ut the suimi
time , was at the head of a fo'iilly of rcspecU
kblllty , the trooJ name of which ho desired to
protect. This Indlviduul , bo buld , hud told
film that bo was in Iho contldunco and bad u
paid upon a uuu high up in authority who
tould bclp him ( Squires ) to make a great tloal
nero out of his naptialtum paving con-
racts thun ho wns now malting.Vlth
UopooJwillof this ofUcial it was possible
'or Mr. Siiuiros to nso a httlo loss broken
stoiio , little less gravel or slag ; that where
six inches ol coucieto were called for nsiimllor
number ininlit DO cmplojed , and where
a certain amount of cement ias ilo-
nnndcd an inferior quality , as well
as a smaller quantity might bo used.
n fact , continued Mr. Squires , this
50 between promised that nlmost every
i pccitlcation laid down by tuo boirdof pub-
, io woi'K * fov the laying of nsphaltmn pavo-
incnt inlglit bo disroiraivlod , and the party
who was placed over the ] ol > ra inspector
would see that nobody was made the wiser of
the transaction.
Mr. Sim Ires hero paused , and nearly nil
the members of the boait ? looked up , seine of
them with amazement depicted on their coun
tenances.
Mr. Squires , continued , saying tlmt
the nun had told him that by Uo-
latlnpr the specifications ho could in
addition to his regular profits ndil
SOO.OOO more , which was u poodly sum to
inako out of nothing , and , that all lie ( the go-
between ) wanted was one-half of the illcjj.il
profits , or &WOOOI
Some of the membeis of the bowl opened
tlieir o\cs and others their mouths , nnd others
still refrained from opening an ) thing.
"Do you want , to Imow the n.iino of the
man -uho made this proposition to mol"
uskcd Mr. Squires.
Mr. Ktorttcad shouted cut. "Tobosui-owo
do. I insist upon knowing it. His propo-,1-
tion , as It now appeals , may alTcct any ono of
us. I am not willing It should icfer to me. "
Major Furay Jumped up aud vehemently
ciled :
"Most ccitainly wo w nut to Tjnow who this
man is , and v < o insist upon knoulng it. "
Mr. lilrhh.uiser was asked for his opinion
on the subject , and said that ho did not think
the name of the party should ho ilivulicod ,
Just at thitt moment ono of the h.ingcrs-on
npproaihcd where the reporter stood , was
obbcrvid byoaoof the members of the board ,
who immediately closed ttio window nnd cut
oft the sounds of the speaker's voice.
Whether the name was afterwards an
nounced or not can not bo told.
The board will meet next Monday night ,
when , the matter will again ho ( nought up.
"I can now see , " said n bystander Liter ,
"the extending Justice of TUB Bt i'f exposure
of the ring which dominates the .council.

Tlicy Tlireatra an Attorney Who Is
Stirring Uptlio AiiliiuilH There ,
Tor several weeks , as reported exclusively
in Friday's llnr , the peaceablocitizens of the
suburb of Florence Imvo been disturbed by
open saloons and the contingent cio\\d of
loafers that gathered about them.
Thodistuibanco became so marked tlmt it
as found necessary by the = o who dcslrod
the usual Sunday quiet to employ an attor
ney to tnko such measures as he should sco
lit to enforce the law. The attorney went
there and found the mayor , the corpoiatlon
attorney aud ono council man in collusion , To
obtain a warrant ho found It necessary to
procure a writ of mindamus from Judge
Wakeley of the Jlsttlct court.
Thouurrant nus against nn alderman.
After procuring the mandamus the attor
ney found that his complaining witness had
Icon intimidated by the olUcial charged. 'I Uo
attorney thereupon found ether witnesses
against the accused and others , uud the case
is now pending.
In the meantime , however , many citizens
had been incensed by the action of
tno village attorney , Mr. Uller of
lllulr , and tomorrow night at the reg
ular council mooting Inquiries will bo nmuo
asking whv the vllhigo uttoruoy should enter
into a combination to Infringe uj > on the law ,
Then there are other troubles wtilch are
lliible tu uasall a prominent ofllciul. A social
scandal uus been rampant at Florence for
several days i\hich will add unto tomorrow
niirht's ' sensation.
In the me mtimo the attorney who has been
prosecuting the cacs against the ITloremo
violators of the law has rccdvoil the follow

A Buillngton oftlcial said yesterday that
thoroason coin and wheati.itosweroiudticed
from Kansas City. Lcavenwoith , Atchlson
and St Joseph to Chicago , and not from
Omaha , is because the Alton road insisted on
it down there. As Omaha is onUtdo tlio
Alton's territory and no other load demands
an ) tiling of the boit lieic , It Is not deemed
advlsablo to disturb rates nt this point. ' 1 ho
