MEANS A NEW INDUSTRY FOR THE CITY Wilt rurnl.li Light , Ilrnl iin'il l'o or liy AVIrc Nothing Conrrnlrd hi tlin Con- tnict-I.iirgr I'liintIIKlo l ! | > On the I'livliliiK Homo Site. The passage bv the rouncll Tuesday even ing of llio ordinance granting John T. Stcwnrt the privilege of building and main taining an electrical plant for tba purpose of furnishing light , power anil boat , \\M the subject of a great deal of Interested dis cussion yesterday. At first tboro was some disposition to condemn tbo council for the has to In passing the oidlnanco , but after Ibo charter was examined there could bo no reason found lor continuing the criticism. Mr. Stewart was compelled to answer n gtoat many questions during the day concerning - corning the character and aim of the new ontorpilso. " 1 simply asked the privilege of the city to do something , and that is all there Is to It , " said he to TUB BKB. "Thoro was no oc casion lor haste and there was no occasion for delay. The privilege , ! asked was similar to many others that have been granted by the city , many to parties who have never usort the rIRlits { conferred. The charter granted mo is as plain and simple as the English language cnn bo made , and contains nothing ambiguous or concealed. Copies of the charter were furnl < hod all members of the council several days bcforo It wan called up , and tbo broad , liberal minded men In It realized all .hero was In tbo situation. I simply ivant the privilege of furnishing llht and power in competition with othors. If I can Furnish It cheaper thun It Is being furnished now f will oxpcct to do some business. If I can't then I'll quit. The only company fur nishing power to small manufacturers Is the water company. The location does not al ways permit them to do so cheaply enough to justify Its use. I Incorporated the right to make and sell electrical machines and an pllanccs for the reason that I bollovo there Is an opening hero for such a plant. Elec trical distribution of power M tbo cheapest and best In the wotla and , in my opinion , It Is the chief means that will bo used In the future. There Is only ono manufacturing plant for tbo pro ductlon of such machinery in the west , utul I can sea no reason why such a business ihould not bo made to pay bore as this ma chinery comus Into moro general uso. I am convinced that It will or 1 should not have asked for that clause of the charter. I have room for a big plant where my old packing houbo stood , and it is tint ut all Improbable that I will use It for this mirposo. That Is ono of the objects I have in view and the erection of such a plant may bo one of the ultimata results. " Ewcnson Music Co. , Masonic temple Jurvlswild blackberry Is the bosL STILL .MISSING. Xo News Yet from \V , II. 1'oiler End of a MlalvitilliiK l.rttor. Photographs and cards containing doscrlp- ions of W. H. Foster , the Council Uluflu and Omaha merchant , wore sent out to all the nelguDorlng towns yesterday , but no Information mation was received that would throw any ight or. the mystery surrounding his disap pearance. A letter was published by a morning paper purporting to bo the tttatotnont of Mrs. Pos ter , the wlfo of the missing man. the sub- stuuco of the letter being that Foster , vas away on business and that she wished they nould glvo up bunting for him. Instead of Mrs. Foster's signature , however , that of Joseph Butler , the hired man who slept in tbo ereeuhouse , was ap pended to it , and that fact tended to discredit the statement contained in it. An investi gation was made during the day , as the re sult of which Butler admitted that the note had been given him by u man named Alex ander , who it unknown to the Foster family , and that Alexander had heard the statements from four or live neighbor women who clulmcd that they had their information from Mrs. Foster. News coming , o directly should bo reliable , but Will Foster , tbo son of tbo mitsing man , denies that his mother over jrave utterance to any such sen timents as these with which she Is credited , and oavs that Butler acted entirely without authority In tbo matter. It is the opinion of many that Butler wrote tno letter in order to put a stop to the soarcb that was going on for fear something would bo found out that might reflect upon him. Mrs. Foster Is almost prostrated over the sad affair , and is now confined to her bed. She has been in poor health for the past ten yours , and at ono time her mind was so deranged - ranged that it was feared she would become hopelessly insane. Unless her present sus pense Is brought to an end soon something equally serious is feared. Eastern inonoy to lonn on renl estate by E. II. Slioivfo , Broadway and Main.

Some two or three weeks ago a smooth ap pearing , well dressed , middle need man , who gave bit name as Albert Dufour , walked into the Bank of Crelghton at Crelghtoa , Neb. , and entered into negotiations for a loan of ftXXi on a crop of corn , Tbo bank people were willing to accommodate Mr , Dufour and did to. The cash was counted out and transferred to Dufour's pockets la exchange for a first mortgage on tbo crop. A day erse so ago tbo bank discovered that the security for the loan was worthless , ns Dufour did not own the corn which ho had mortgaged. The matter was placed In the bauds of detective * and a description of the sharper sent out all over this section of tbo country.

There was n largo amount of enthusiasm distributed about tbo Llnlngor gallery last evening , the occasion calling out the interest being tbo annual election of ofllccrs of The Club. But previous to the over.t of the evening t > dctormlnrd effort was mrulo to change the name of Tbo Club to something moro dollulto than the ono which has passed current for thren years. Ono faction contended that the organization had already taken a place in the literary llfo of the city , una In keeping with that prominence should have a dignlllcii pat ronymic. Another faction , equally a * en thusiastic , contended for the old name be cause the name had grown to bo a household \word with these who woio members and the friends of the organization. And o the battle was waged , but alter repeated ef forts , through Chairman Snydcr , who gave the deciding vote , the name was changed to the Live Issue club , and as such hereafter the association of men which meets at the Llnlngor gallery fortnightly will bo known. The election of oftlcers resulted as follows : President , William F. Baxter ; first vlco president , J. B. Shcchan ; second vice presi dent. E. C. Snydcr ; third vlco president , C. S.

The duchess , who had issued 220 invita tions for her bull , proposed to recall them when she hoard that Napoleon'B array WOB advancing. But the duke of Wellington , to prevent alarm , requested that the bull might take place. Never theless , niudy English families were frightened away from Brussels , and post horses were kept harnessed in the duke of Richmond's stable , in case had news from the scene of the conflict should mulco it advisable for his chil dren to ho sent to Antwerp. The majority of the people of Brus sels were violent Bonnpartists and were prepared toontortain Napoleon in gro.it style should ho force the British army to retreat and enter their city in triumph. So it was that the duke of Wellington and many of his ofllcors went to the ball after the business of the day had been attended to. While the merry couples were flying around , a dispatch from the front was handed to Wellington. Ho asked the duke of Richmond for n private loom whore he might consult with some of his generals who were present. The duchess' dressing-room was the only convenient room which was safe from intrusion. Candles were hastily lit on the dressing table , at which Wellington sat with a map hoforo him , and having explained certain points to his staff they all rejoined the company , They loft the house before 10 o'clock , and succeeded in doing so without attracting any attention. Very few , if any , of the dancers guessed how near at hand was the crisis which was to decide the fate of Europe , ana it never entered into the heads of the young girls that some of their partners were dancing the "dance of death.
