Judge Many lind given the Jury to understand thnt he would keep them out even a longer tlmo unless they agreed , but ho tool ! mercy on them yesterday morning when they reported that it was linpo.s.slblo fur them to be of one mind. Flo gnvo them their liberty thoiiKh with an apparent nlr of great dlsMitisfucliun at being thus forced to tunica entry of another dis agreement , this being tlio third hung Jury which ho has Ini'l this term. Ho luii never hud a hung ; jur.v beloro coming hero this term , in nil the tlmo ho Ins boon on the liench , and ho naturally does not know how to take such a result as gracefully as some of the older Judges who have i-omo to loolc upon it aa rather of a Council llluffs privilege.

Justice ITcndricks put In full time .yester day trying to determine whether Christ Fiiukins should bo bound over to the grand Jury on a charge of asuult with intent to kill. .The defendant is tlio man whom JIarks and Tjaiio arrested n few days ago , on charge of stealing corn from IMr. Marks' Held , and who resisted by pointing a Kim at Lane and threatening to 1:111 : liliii. The gun was wrested from him , and ho was brought to the city , The defendant suddenly forgot yesterday alibis knowledge of Kngllsh , anil Insisted that ho could not understand the simplest questions. In view of his claim lo having lived in Omaha for ten year * ur mo re , and being somewhat of a capitalist nnd business man , his lack of knowledge of the prevalent language took the court by surprise , and even more so Marks and Lane , who testified to havinpiiultoa conversation with him at the time of the fracas. The defendant's story was to the effect that ho had stopped In tlio road to shoot a duck , and hud Jusl returned from the Held , when Murks and r-.ano eamo up nnd excitedly Insisted that ho haa been stalling corn. The corn In his wagon , was some lie had bought to feed his horse. lie did not know anything about the other fellow who had ran away \vlien Marks and Lane came up. lie used 'the KUH simply to scare them awny , and ho know It was not loaded. The contest between lawyers in the case seeaiod to be mainly over the question as to whether there was any proof that thu gun was loaded , and whether , ; ! f not loaded , the olinrgoof assault with Intent to Mil could bo maintained. The witnesses for the state testified Unit after getting iwssesslon of the Kim they took out- shell and threw it away , but they could not tell whether the shell was loaded or not. Justice riendi'icks reserved his decision until ho could tnko time to look up a few authorities. As soon as conn adjourned the defendant , who was under bonds , started out with his attorney nnd : i friend , but In stead of going with them up the street , ho turned Into an alloy nnd crossed over to Main street. Ho was hurridly going up Main street when Coiistiblo Ponnan , who had another warrant for him , overtook him and arrested hi m on tUochnrgo of the larceny of the corn , lie viw brought bade to the Justice's office , anil arrangements inudo for him to give 3100 bonds lor thU charge , the time of hearing being set for Friday morning , The Manhattan sporting headquarters , 413 Broadvay.

A number of property owners on tbo street , Including all of those on the west tddo in the block between Washington avenue and Harmony street , have been occu pying from ono to eight feet of the street for the past thirty years. The improvements re cently commenced demanded tlio straighten ing of the line , and the property owners were ordered to remove their fences. They re fused to comply , nnd the marshal was ordered to tear the fences away. Before ho could get around to obey the orders the property own ers procured Iho the assistance of Attorney George Holmes , and an Injunction was se cured restraining the marshal. The case was to Lo argued in the district court nt the November term , but It will probably bo dropped. Alderman Lacy states that a com promise has been effected , anil the interested property owners waive nil rights and agree to sot back their fences provided they are allowed to plnco the sidewalk on the curb line nnd not bocoinpolled to remove any of their buildings , if any of them should Lo in the street. This proposition has been ac cepted and the trouble has about nil blown over. When the agreement is ratified by the council the contractor will bo cnnblcd to go ahead at once and complete tbo work of grad ing that has been interrupted so much and delayed to long , find thohopo of the residents realized that the street will bo put passable condition before winter sots In.

The council held n brief but busy session last night , with all the members present cx coptMr. i'ord. The resolution ordering the board of public works to remove the obstruction by the B. & M. of South Twentieth street was returned without the mayor's concurrence , tbo nature of the obstruction not having been definitely stated. The mayor refused to sanction the resolu tion ordering the stoppage of work of paving on North Twentieth street , without the written waiver of claims from the contract. The matter was referred to the committee on pavlnc , curbing and guttering. The action of the Hro and police commis sion , asking tbo council to pass an ordinance regulating the running speed of motor trains , especially nt street crossings , was referred to the committee on judiciary. Mr. O'Con- n on offered n motion that the city attorney bo Instructed to prepare an amendment re- auirlng the street railway company to employ llagmun nt street crossings designated by res- olutlon of the council. The motion was lost. Ono of the papers made un error In the call for a meeting of the board of equalization , and the city attorney offered his opinion that the call was thereby rendered Illegal. On motion of Mr , Wheeler nn amended call was ordered published for a meeting ot the council as nn equalizing board on Octo ber ill ) . A petition asking that the street cur com pany bo required to replace the pavement on Tenth street In front of Bell's drug store was presented. Tbo motion to refer the matter to the committee on viaducts and mil- ways met Mr. O'Connor's ' indignant opposi tion , lie accused the railway companies and the street railway company of being in a col lusion to rob the rlty of the street. ilr. Lowry and others favored the fencing up of the street while the viaduct Is being built. The petition was referred to the com mittee on viaducts and railways. Sergeant Graves' report on the sanitary condition of the city was received. Tlio re port stated that the trouble seemed to be In the failure of the garbage men to remove the garbage. The citizens complained that they could not get garbage men to haul off the garbage , nnd the garbage men complained that they could not irct pay for the work done by them. The dump master reported that an average of TOO loads of manure garbage - ago and night soil were dumped in the river each night , and that the amount of garbngo was about 50 per cctit less than It was at this time a year ago. The report was referred to the special com mittee having the sanitary affairs of the city in charge , Tim special committee having In hand the charges against sanitary commissioner Mor- risoy was given another subject for consider ation in the form of an nflldavit from Newton Niday. who has been in Air. Morrissey's em ploy as garbage gleaner in the Fourtu wnnl. In his atllduvit Mr. Niday nlleced that Alor- rlsscy had charged him ,51.75 for refuse mat ter , tbo price of which , according to the ordi nance , should have been r > ( ) peats. The afll- ant also said ho had been discharged because ho had refused to pay i0 ! oer cent of his earn ings to Morrisscy , The complaint \vas _ referred to the special committee and Mr. Olsen. the chairman , promised a report next Tuesday night. Mr.\Vheeiercallcdatietitlotrto a complaint thnt tbo strict-sweeping contractor had oeen dumping tbo street sweepings on Eleventh street north of Davenport. The matter was referred to the committee on police. A resolution was adopted cancelling the contract for tbo grading of Porker street from Twenty'seventh to Thirtieth , the funds not being available for the work under the recent change of grade. The resolution was adopted , and if the property owners want tbo street ( rraded it will bavo to bo done un der the throe-fifths clause. The council will meet on November 6 as a board of equalization on paving matters. A resolution was adopted urging the busi ness men of the city to close their places of business from 1 to (5 ( on November 4 to give all employes a chance to vote. The city attorney reported that the passage ot nu orulnanco prohibiting the opening of meat markets on Sunday would be illegal , and the ordinance , which was proposed in resixmso to a request of certain butchers was rejected. A delegation from the supervisors of regis tration presented a request to the council rel ative to the matter of compensation. The registrf rs complained that under the law the copyiiv of the Hats entails great additional work and that the compensationnllowed ono day's pay for each registration day was in- sutllcient. The matter was referred to the committee on claims , and the different mem bers of the council offered expressions of opinion favorable to the allowance of liberal compensation for extra services performed by the registrars.
