A special meeting of the city council Is
booked for next Monday evening , and one of
the Items of business which will como
before it at that time Is the consideration of
the petition which Is now being circulated
among tno citizens asking that the charter
of the Omaha & Council Hluffs Hallway and
Urldgo company bo revoked. The petition
Is being iiutto largely signed , and there is
but little doubt that a strong effort will bo
made to induce the aldermen to lake n
decided stand upon thtvjiuestlon , and the
citizens In general will take a great deal of
pleasure in watching to see how each mem
ber of the council behaves himself on that
occasion.
The Idea of those who suggested the
circulation of the petition Is. that If the
charter Is revoked , It will leave the motor
company on the platform it now claims to be ,
that Is , on the charter of the old Council
HlulTs Street Hallway company , which will
expire next August. 'Hit ; motor cornpanv
will thru have to show its hand and ask fur
a new charter or else let Us business go up
the llumo. If it asks for a new charter , the
council may perhaps bo forced into putting
a 5-cent faro clause In it by the overwhelm
ing public sentiment that exists in favor of
such a provision. The idea that itill
voluntarily shut up shopafter the expiration
of tlio charter of IM5S is by no means prob
able , and the fact that the Omaha U , Idgc &
Hallway company takes the approach of the
expiration of the charter under which it now
operates so coolly , gives color to the sugges
tion that perhaps there is a colored man in
HID wood pile that people generally know
nothing nbout.
Siiine Illtfrrstlnj , " History.
A little over two years ago a charter was
granted to tlio Interstate Hallway company
to build and operate a motor line on the
streets of Council Bluffs. East Omaha was
the point which it was intended to reach ,
and a great hullabaloo was made over what
was nt the time thought to bo an immense
thing for Council Bluffs. The work of layIng -
Ing track was to becompleted Inside of three
years , but although there is less than a year
left there has been nothing done with the
exception of laying about a block of track
on North Eighth street , Just enough
to prevent the charter from lapsing for
nonuser. The track itself has vanished from
sight and old inhabitants would have to bo
called upon to testify that It Is there , or else
the dirt would have to be removed to the
depth of a foot or thereabouts. It is now
stated that if the Omaha and Council Hluffs
Hallway and Hrldgo company has not
already leased the charter of this company
there is an undcrstandliiir between the two
companies that as soon as the charter of the
Council Hluffs Street Ituilwny company ex
pires the line will thenceforth be operated
under the charter of the Interstate com
pany. The paving bills will by that
time be outlawed and there will bo
nothing to hinder the company from
coming out boldly and admitting thut it is
operating under a charter that requires
them to pay for the paving between the
tracks and u foot on cither side. Whether
this rumor Is correct , time only can tell , but
it answers as well as any explanation that
has yet been put forward to the question
why so little excitement was shown by the
motor company when the charter of an
alleged competitor was before the city coun
cil. F. ij. Ames , the largest stockholder In
the motor company , is also hea\ily Inter
ested in the Interstate company , nnd two
members of the motor company , Messrs.
Barton nnd Mlllard , nro said to bo consider
ably influenced by his feelings.
Ono of .Many .Suggestions.
Ono result from all this talk that has been
going the rounds with reference to tlio
motor company and Its unpaid taxes is that a
new idea has begun to sprout. It is now sug
gested by a number of influential citizens
tliat the city step in and buy the motor line
next August. If there should turn o'ut to be
nothing in the above theory with reference
'to the connection of the motor company and
the Interstate , It is urged that the city will
then have the company in an exceedingly
tight place. There will bo nothing to com
pel the giving of u now charter , and even if
the council should think it best to accommo
date the company with ono , it could bo so
loaded down us to decrease materially the
dividends , and thus give the company a gen
erous gulp of the medicine it lias been admin
istering to the city over since it commenced
operations. If tlio motor line , run as it is by
money furnished by the taxpayers , is so val
uable n piece of property to the company
the question naturally arises why It would
not bo equally valuable to the city , which
really gives it all the value it possesses
And forcing the company to stand on the
charter of IhOS , as would then ba necessary ,
would not prevent the citizens from recover
ing In the actions which huvo already been
instituted , for if they are entitled to any
thing they have n right to their share of
the dividends that have been declared in
favor of the stockholders of the company ,
and could even fish into tlio stockholders'
pockets to get what was coming to them.
These are tlio arguments put forward by
those who favor t-hu scheme , and although
later developments may show It to bo an
impossibility it is nt least an interesting
thing to think nbout until the developments
como to light.

J. B. Fulton was arrested yesterday on the
charge of being a fugitive from Justice. He
is wanted in Lcwistou , Fulton county. 111. ,
und Deputy Sheriff Waggonner of that place
arrived in the city yesterday to take charge
of him. About two years ago Fulton was in
the employ of William Barker , also of this
city , und was working that part of Illinois in
the Interests of u lightning ted llrm. It is
alleged that there was something crooked in
the transaction of Barkers and his associates ,
of whom there were several , and all of tliem
were Indicted for conspiracy by the grand
Jury of Fulton county. Barker nnd ono of
his men were arrested , but the others
sought safety in ( light. They have
been fleeing ever shine. Barker was
convicted , but managed through some pe
culiarity of the law of Illinois to get out ol
jail after n brief imprisonment. His man
was discharged , it appearing from the evi
dence that ho had been led into the alleged
crooked transactions by other parties. A
telegram was sent to ( Jlilef Scanlnn several
dujs ago asking If Fulton was here , anil
u | > on a reply in the atllrmativo boing-sent ,
another telegram was received asking that
he bu arrested nt once. The Illinois ufllclul
left for homo last evening with Fulton in
custody. Fulton claims to be able to sliou
his innocence of the charge , nnd oven says
that ho is not wanted except as n witness
ngalnst his alleged confederates.

tin ox-convict , his landing would be in viola
tion of the law.
Mitchell's lawyers applied to the
United States courts for a writ of habeas
corpus , claiming ho was merely convicted of
a misdemeanor , not of a felony , and is
therefore not properly termed a convict. .
Mitchell obtained a writ for his production
In court at U this afternoon , and Judge An
drews , before whom ho was brought , dis
charged him.

a light between the champion and Mitchell
next December , before cither the Crescent
City or Olympic club of Xow Orleans or the
Coney Island Athletic club. He also posted

bon in case Mitchelliloes ( not accept. Brady
asserts thai Corbet , ! , will light Jackson seven
months after niectitiR' Mitchell , should the
latter accept his cMllenge. The manager
states that Corbctt will either train in Cali

NEW YOUK , Feb. " 10. The second pigeon
match of the season'between members o' the
Lurchmont Yacht jjjlul ) and 10. D. Fulford ,
the professional champion wing shot , took
place at the grounds of the flub today and
resulted In u vlctoryfor Fulford. There was
fully as much enthusiasm evident upon Ful-
ford's victory us there was when Mr. Work
defeated the world' . * * champion two' days
ago. The match was for fAVJ a side ,
modified Hurlingliatn lules. The rise
was thirty yards and the boundary
was tifty yards. L. S. Thompson , who was
elected to try conclusions with the crack
professional today used , both barrels sixty-
one times. Fulford used both barrels lifty-
six times. Thompson missed ten sht > ts. Ful
ford missed eight shots. Fulfora shot a slow
and deliberate , but certain match and finally
won with two birds to spare. Had Thomp
son been able to retain his nerve and cool
ness to the end ho would have won. Ho
clearly outshot his opponent at the start and
at ono time it looked like an easy victory.
His nerve forsook him at a critical stage of
the game and ho lost the match. It was bi
ll o means a walkover for the professional.
