REPORT OF ST , BERNARD'S ' HOSPITAL ,

lie Jlnilu'L I'ut Ills Knot In
Jl llothprcil by Shop
lifters.
A great load of nr.xlety was rolled oft the
members of the Council Hluffs theatre com
pany und , In fact , off nil those who Imvohccn
ntall Interested In having good theatrical en
tertainment In this city , when the contract
nnd lease wcro signed yesterday , by the terms
of which the ouera house was transferred fern
n period of years to the no./ly formed organ
ization , It was fcurcu for a time that the
deal would full through , the parties not being
able to coino to uny satisfactory agreement.
At last a compromise was agreed upon , by
which the company takes the opera house for
ono year and pays n rental of $ l00 for It. Do-
hany agrees to refit the dressing rooms , toput
In water closets nnd other needed conven
iences und to thoroughly clean the house. If
at the cm ! of the year the company has In Its
treasury a balance of fy.MO it Is obliged to
take the house for another year. .Ur if it so
desires It has the option of taking It for an
other year or term of years any way at the
rule of ja.WX ) per annum. ' 1 ho lease , how
ever , Is not binding on either of the par
ties after the llrst year nnd cither may abro
gate it. >
What the company expects to do may be
seen from the following proclamation which
was Issued yesterday :
To the citizens of Council Bluffs : The Coun
cil Bluffs theater company leased from John
Dolmny the Council Uluffs opera house. The
company proposes to relit , refurnish and repair
this opera house , nnd make It llrst class hi
every particular. ' A now orchestra has boon
formed nud employed , and the music will
excel nny theater music in the western states.
The stockholders In this company nro nmong
the leading citizens of Council Bluffs , nnd it
is the purpose of the company to present to
the citizens of Council Dluffs the very best
attractions for "play and song. " If fts good
amusements are offered with as good sur
roundings as can ho procured anywhere
in the west , the company expects
that the citizens of Council Bluffs will
patronize liberally and loyally. The com
pany has been formed simply to advance the
interests of Council Bluffs and to bring up to
the proper standard its opera house and pre
vent the necessity of anybody going to
Omaha or any place else to sco or dear any
entertainment. The company has to take the
opera house from Mr. Doliany , subject to
certain contracts that ho has made with cer
tain traveling companies nnd lecturers , etc.
It will bo the hcncst aim and pur-
peso of the company to procure as
speedily as possible and as soon
ns the season will open , the very
best attractions. The company most
earnestly solicits the Kind ofllces and liberal
patronapo of the citizens of Council Dlufls
nnd vicinity , and certainly promises that if
that is given It will prove to those that enter
the opera house that their aid has not been
unworthily bestowed. It will bo a short
tlmo before all the changes that nro to t > o
made can bo carried out. The company will
take possession of the opera house Feb
ruary 10 , 1SU1.

CHICAOO , Feb. 4. [ Special Telegram to
Tin : BEK.J Tlio railway press bureau says ;
"Tlio Alton and Mobile & Ohio hnvo practi
cally consolidated. There is no exchange of
stock or ownership , but the agreement Is ex
actly similar to thai bcUvecu the Union Pa-
cillc ana the Norlhwcslern. This accounts
for tbo collapse of the deal by which Presi
dent Mackay proposed making a trunk line
to Chicago consisting of the Big
Four system , the Mobile & Ohio and about a
hundred miles of new Irnok. This coallllon
is an Imporlant ono as showing the policy of
the Alton. It has steadily refrained from
adding mileage west of the Missoufl and now
proposes to enter what Is almost a now field
for Chicago roads. Further allies in the
south will bo obtained as fast as possible by
Iho Alton. Its oftlciuls believe thoroughly in
the future of the new south and , although
they will nol say so , it is bolloved Ihoy will
add to Iheirown mileage In that section , "
' This aflcrnoon Ibo Allen dircclors de

SiMiixnnni.n , 111. , Feb. 4. A meeting of
the republican steering conunltUiO was held
Ibis morning lo consider the propoiitlou of
the Fanners' Mutual Benetlt association ror
the republicans to Join with the farmers In
tno , election of Strcetcr , Meoro orTaubcneek.
Tlio thrco gentlemen's names were discussed
at considerable length , but the prevailing
sentiment among the members of the coiiunit-
tee appeared to bo that a caucus should ho
held before the republicans doidcu
to endorse nny senatorial candidate not n
member of tbo republican party. The repub
lican farmers held a brief caucus this after
noon but nothing came of it. They evidently
intend awaiting the action of the steering
commillco. II Is obvious they nro yet op
posed to dropping Oglesby and by no means
as well disposed toward Strcoter , Moore or
Sleelo as has been supposed.
The democrats nro not worried over the
negotiations between republicans and the
Farmers' ' Mutual Benefit association party.
They are convinced the troubles of the re
publicans have only Just beirun. The
manifest hostility of many republican
legislators to any fusion candidate
leads the democrats to bollovo such
a man cannot be elected. Therefore , the
Palmer men lonlght claim to feel n.oro con 11-
dent than over.
The republican slecring committee had
several conferences today and tins evening
the question was again discussed nt IciiKth.
"When Iho committee adjourned tonight
Chairman Fuller was directed to notify Iho
Farmers' Mutual Benollt association men the
