OFFER TO BUY THE UNION DEPOT GROUNDS Condition * Thill th Itnllroiul Company U'onlil Imp < n < > on the City Anothrr I'liimiof Ihi. Union Iipot < jur < tlon ItrollRht Out by Iti'i-rllt i\clltn. The proposition of the Union faclflc rail way to buy the union depot grounds on con dition that the city council would clear up a defect in Its title to Union avenue , has at tracted considerable attention from tile citi zens. The fact that there was a defect In the tltlo has not houn known until recently , and when It was announced there was a Hurry among some of thoeitlzciiK , who hoped that It might result In the city regaining ItosHcsslon of the avenue. If the view taken by City Attorney Hazelton Is correct , how ever , the railway company has asked for nothing moro limit it has already , and Its only reason for making the prcsant rcquo't of the council Is to put an end to annoy ance that might arise in the future. U'hiTr the rroillilu Co'limrnri'tl. The trouble dates baelt to a llttlo over tlireo years ago. when an ordinance was passed repealing the ordinance by which the company was compelled to run dummy trains every half hour In order to keep possession of the avenue. H was the intention of the eouncilmcn who passed the second ordinance to relieve the company of its obligation only on the condition that they enter the union depot within eighteen months , and a clause to that effect was tacked on. The ordinance went into effect immediately upon accept ance by the company , and the company lost no time In accepting it. It now turns up that there was no reference to tills provis ional clause in thetitleof the ordinance , and , according to the st ite law , that part of ttio ordinance is consequently utterly void. Union avenue , as it now transpires , wan given to the company without receiving any bom-lit from the gift , and the company was allowed lo discontinue its half-hourly trains , also , without giving up anything lu return , all on account of the carelessness of the parties who drew up the repealing ordi nance. In thu opinion of the eity attorney , how ever , the gift of Union avenue to the com pany was an unmitigated benellt. and to get it back would bankrupt the city. It Is 120 feet wide , 'and running diagonally , as it does , through the city , there is not moro than one lot on each block that would pay for the cost of paving and tilling , which , in all probability , will souu- time ho necessary. Moro than one-half of the entire paving would huvo to be charged up to the city as intersections , ami nearly all the other half would lie assessed up against little trluniruiur lots which would not bo worth selling for taxes. The consequence quence would bo that if the cit.shoulu . find some way of getting the avenue away from the railway company it would in the end find it had a very poor bargain.

The reason of the willingness of the Union Pacllic to purchase the union depit grounds for any sum not to exceed * U.0 ) < > ! ) that may have been oxpen led by the stockholders in the purchase of the land and the payment ot taxes , is attributed by W. S. Mayne , the at torney for th depot comp my , to an inten tion of the Union Pacific to put up a local depot in I lie near future at the corner of Ninth avenue ami Seventti street , on the land upon which it was intended - tended to have the union depot. Ho claims to have had a conversation with General ( _ ! , M. Dodge , vice president of the Union f u. chic , lu which that gentleman said that be. fore many years the transfer hotel would be turned into a freight depot , the freight of flees would be moved to this side of the rivoi and when that was done the passenger ilcpol would bo moved farther up into the city.as i means of counteracting the advantages tlu other roads now have in covering the terri lory west of 'Jouncll Bluffs which \vas for merly monopolized by the Union f acilic.

Ho advocated earnestly the use of every power the council had to compel the Union f acltlc to keep Its pledges to the oily. A number of those interested in the depot slto and anxious to let go spoke iu _ favor of t lie proposition. N. f. Dodge wanted to disabuse the minds of the council of the Impression that the L'nlon Pacltlc wanted to make this trade. The company had only accepted the depot comp.iny's proposition after persistent urging. Mr. Mayne said he was not authorized to speak for the company , but ho believed and felt he knew enoutrh to assure the council that if the Union Pacltlc got the property it would be used for passenger depot purposes. The Until disposition of the matter was deferred until Monday evening by a resolu tion referring It to the commlttco of the whole. I'linrrat of XV. II. ( Iriiiuly. The funeral of W. II.

The strikers made an attack upon the sheds alnut the mauth of a pit and smashed every window In them There were many men working in Iho pit who had re fused to Join the strikers and the mob's ef forts \vere directed against them as much as against the oivucrs of the pit. All sorts of rublilsh. old hoards , stones and dirt were thrown Into the shaft , the intention of the strikers lielni ; to Imprison the men In the mine. The pit o.lli ; ! ils were holpUMs to con tend against the mob , and assistance was asked from the gendarmes. Before ollk'ors arrived at the pit considerable damage had been done. lli-.it Oll'by the Toilet- . The mob was on the pjlut of attacking another pit when the gendarmes arrived. The latter at once ordered the rioters to dis perse , and upon their refusal to do so , at tacked them with the ll.it sides of their swords. The strikers finally dispersed , fear ing that if they resisted the gendarmes would resort to the keen edge of their weap ons. Further trouble from the strikers is apprehended , and a closn watch will be kept upon nil their actions. Great activity is shown among the labor leaders. All their efforts are now directed to bringing about an enormous demonstra tion against the Clumber of Deputies for refusing to adopt thu bill to establish uni versal sulT rage. Immediately after the assembling of the .leputies today an excited crowd gathered around the falais do la Nation. The ncess.int accession of small groups soon swelled the crowd until it pushed into the park and up and donn the rue Uo.vale. The parliamentary building had already been surrounded by unmounted police. As thu crowd became more demonstrative a squad ron of police \\MS called out and held ready to charge. AtI o'clock the workingmen nearest tiie parliamentary building raised a shout lor imivci-s.il suffrage and made a rush to break the police line. The police were driven back and the mob tried to push up the steps. The mounted reserves churgc-l with drawn swords. The mob met them with repeated volleys qf stones , but event ually was forced back and p.irtly dispersed. In the conflict some of the policemen were struck with stones on the head and many rioters were cut or trampled on. Fought with Stoiirn. The real disturbance followed in the rue Levin between the Palais dc la Nut ion and the boulevard du Hcgent. As often as they were dispersed by the police the rioters tried to reassemble and , tight back with stones. In t'no district round the parlia mentary building fifteen men were arrested. Less serious dlsturbancos in oilier parts of the city were also followed by arrests. The deputies adjourned the debate on the revision of the constitution after the com pletion by the speehil committee of the ex amination into the plans of suffrage reform that have been submituvl. Striking coal miners have rioted all the afternoon at UiicsiiK'n thirty miles from Muoses. The men attacked the buildings near the pit's mouth shortly after noon , drove off the guards and officials and demol ished all the machinery , houses and shops. They tried to take by storm the Catholic club , but were driven back by other private citizens and the police. A councilor who en couraged the mob has been arrested.
