The city council met as a commute of the whole last evening and heard the report of 3lty Attorney Hazelton on the proposed irldgo sewer to be built along Indian creek , ho principal question referred to him icing that of funds. Hazelton held hat where the sewer was to ake the place of bridges which were actually needed , such part of the total cost as would represent the probable cost of the irldgcs might be paid for from the bridge 'und. The rest of the expense could be jorne by appropriations from the sewer fund , and by levying special taxes on abutting property to the extent of not more than $1.50 ier foot. The city attorney and engineer were Instructed to find out what right of way would be needed , how It should bo secured , and the cost of the right of way from Scott to Frank street. . The ordinance providing for making mtne- dlatc repairs on the West Broadway paving , ntroduccd by Alderman Shubert In such a sweat at a meeting n month ngo , was fished up from the bottom of the basket , but at the suggestion of Its godfather was allowed to go over for another meeting. The matter concerning the reduction of taxes on the Ogden hotel from $7,500 to $3,000 was brought up. The city attorney said that ill the council could do was to recommend to the county supervisors to make the desire , ! reduction , but this did not meet with unl- vertal approval. Mayor Cleaver and AUer- mnn Oreenshlclds made speeches against It , the latter referring to n lot belonging to the mayor which was n. sesse'l at $2.600 , and was certainly no better than ony one of the Ogden house lots. It went over. Having finished the work before the com- rnltto of the whole , the council met and pro ceeded to ballot for a poundmaster. Kd Burke received five votes and Herman Smith three and Burke was declar ° d duly elected. A resolution was adopted welcoming the Later Diy Salnta , who are Intending to hold a conference here In September , and htatlng It was the wish of the city they should Hnd It convenient to make-their permanent , location In this city. Mayor Cleaver anouncsd his appolntement of Mrs. Mary K. Davenport to the position of director of the public library , to take the place loft vacant by the resignation of Hcv. E. J. Babcock. As this was a special meet ing , called for another purpose , the duty of confirming the appointment was left over for the next meeting. A meeting of the Board of Health was also held , at which City I'hyslclan Treynor un- nounced that the physicians of the city had displayed a great deal of laxity of late In reporting cases of whooping cough that came under their notice. Kive deaths had taken place from the disease during July , and only five cases were reported. There were plenty of other cases , the Christian Home having had several fatal cases. Manager Lemen had signed the death certificates In the home cases , but had been given a going over , no one but a physician being allowed by law to sign a certificate. On motion of Alderman Shugart the marshal was Instructed to pub lish a notice calling upon physicians to report cases or be prosecuted and fined. Dr. Treynor also called attention to the reckless way In which garbage collectors were doing their work , hustling their wagon ? full of tilth around under the nosea of the public. City Clerk Phillips stated that no one had any legal right to do any garbage collecting this year , there having been no li censes Issued. No action was taken.

For some time past there has been trouble at Manawa because of lack of water In the lake. Not that the lake has gone dry , but ho bottom bas gradually acquired the habit of approaching the surface so nearly as to cause the steamers to run aground oc- caslonalqly. Mosquito creak formerly emp- led Us waters Into the lake , but some time ago in artificial channel was made by which It vas made to empty Into the river below the ake , thereby cutting off the lake's visible means of support , At the beginning of the iresent season a dam was built across the artificial channel , thus sending the creek hunderlng and plunging back Into the lake through Its old channel. One night some one whoso Identity could only be guessed at went out armed with ai axe and chopped the dam In pieces. The : iight after foinu one else , equally unknown , went out with some bags of siuid and patched up the dam. Just how many limes this dam has been undone and done up again cannot bo learned , but one thing Is certain , and that Is that It Is now In to stay , unless Borne one of the adjacent property owners , with his usual contempt for Injunc- llons , cuts U to pieces again. Yesterday the Council Bluffs Rowing asso ciation Hied a petition In the ofllce ot the clerk of tlie district court , setting forth the fact that they had an extensive boat house and the usual appliances for boating at Man awa. The facts above stated were In corporated Into the petition , and the court was Informed that unless an Injunction was ssucd at once to prevent the dam from being .orn out the waters In the lake would speed- ly dry up , and their valuable property ren dered worthless by the action of the abutting property owners , who were represented as lying around , armed with pickaxes , waiting for night to fall § o they might begin their work of destruction. The defendants named nro the Manhattan Beach Improvement company , the Lake Man- nwa Railway company , Ben Marks , 12. Jenkins , David Lane , Lewis township and the township trustees. The railway company , the beach company and Ben Marks are understood to be merely friendly defendants , as their Interests arc Identical with those of the Row ing association. It Is the farmers of Lewis township of whom the lake people are afraid. K. H. Odell of the Manhattan Beach company was approached some time ago by one of them with a demand for $100 damages. The dam. the farmer claimed , was sending water all over a lot of his land that wai worth as much as 50 cents an acre , am ! nothing but $100 would heal his wounded feelings. Odell couldn't see where there was any money In buying all the farmers In Lewis township at $100 per farmer , nnd the offer was declined. A short time ago Odell received n letter from Fllcklnger Bros. , stating that they had been employed as attorneys by Jenkins and Lane , and that unless $50 and attorney fees were paid the latter action would at once be taken to have the dam torn out and the sale of liquor by the Manhattan Beach companj enjoined as n nuisance. How the Manhattan bench saloon figured In the deal Is a myster > to OJell , and he refused to settle until the mystery was cleared up. Last Tuesday Ben Marks and the Man hattan people were served with a notice from H. H. Martens. C. H. Hertz and 0. W Wlttland , trustees of Lewis township , the the Mosquito creek dam had been declared by them a nuisance and ordered destroyed Unless It should be torn out by noon of Frl day. August 2. It would then he torn ou by th ? authorities and Marks and the Man hattan Beach company uould be subjeclec to all proper penalties. The lake people ? once got together and planned to carry th war Into the enemy's camp , and the filing of yesterday's petition was the result.

BROWN. Ticket Agent. DcrlNloiiN In Court. Judge Smith rendered several decisions In the district court yesterday. One was in the suit of Sarah A. Peterson against Henry and Martha Olttens , In wh'ch ' the plaintiff sued to have a deed set aside. The plaintiff , Mrs. Peterson , Is the daughter of OIHens by his first wife. Some years ago he gave her his note of $ SOO In payment for her services around home. Later on he fell In love with a lady whose buxom figure entrapped his affections considerably more than those of the other relatives. He made her Mrs. Oil- tens No. 2 and Immediately began to deed his property to her. Mrs , Peterson saw that her note of $800 would soon be worthless and began suit to have the deed set aside. Judge Smith decided the case yesterday In her favor. All the parties are well known resi dents of Boomer township. In the suit of Lawrence C. Duffy against F. C. Reed. In which the plaintiff sought to get a judgment for damages by reason of a random bullet from the gun of a profes sional crack shot who gave an exhibition at Manawa , the motion of the plaintiff for a new trial was overruled. The motion of the plaintiff In ( he case of William Figgen against E. F. Schroeder for a new trial was overruled. The petition of J. W. Squire for a new trial ot the suit In which ho was plaintiff nnd Frank Grass defendant was also overruled. Squire held a mortgage on the R. P. Snow property und Grass foreclosed a mechanic's lien for $700 on the same property. Subse quently Squire had the case reopened on the ground that he had an understanding with the attorneys of the other side that the previous trial was not to have come off at the time appointed. He tried to prove that his mortgage was superior to Grass' Hen , but the court found differently. In- the suit of Peter Wclse against Morris Bros. , on nl note , a decision was rendered In favor of the defendant , or r.ither In favor of Sheriff John T. Hazeu , who Is the real arty In Interest. Hnzen was a surety on a 1,000 note , along with a let of other men , , 'hose names do not count In business circles. lazcn claimed he could not be held responsi- le for the note.

( Special Tele gram. ) Governor Jackson Is In St. Louis on nvltatlon of Governor Stone of Missouri foi i conference to endeavor to settle the lone landing boundary dispute between this state and Missouri. The boundary line between he states was surveyed' In 1X37 , and adopted vhen Iowa was admitted. It was marked b > lasts , which have disappeared. Later Mis souri made a survey ten miles north of the first , and the courts at last decided that the old line was correct. Meantime the posts had disappeared , am' ' 'or many years there have been cllspules ovei Jurisdiction In the uncertain territory. Ir dcrcer county , Missouri , and Decatur county "owa , there has been a feud for years because of the dispute. Governor Stone wants each state to name an engineer , the two to name c hird , and the three to be commissioned tc settle the whole matter and make n new sur rey and establish marks. If this cannot be agreed to , ho wants the case taken Into th < "ederal courts at once and settled. The Mlssourlans claimed as the boundary ho line running west from the rapids In th ( Des Molnes river , while Iho lowans clalmec he line running west from the rapids In hti Mississippi river , a few miles north of tin nouth of the Des Molne ? . In 1S48 the su > rcmo court of the United States decided tha icllher one of these parallels was the correc boundary line , and held that the line run bj John C. Sullivan In 1810 was the correc joundary. The court at the same time ap -lointed a commission to find nnd mark tlili Inc. Inc.Sullivan's Sullivan's line had as the starting poln what Is known as Hie northwest corner de fining the 0age boundary. This point wai established by running a line 100 miles dui north from ttie east bank of the Mlssour river , op oste ! the mouth of the Kaiuas river This point was westward 150 miles from tin Des Molnes river and about sixty miles eas from the Missouri river. From that point where n large Iron pillar was placed by thi commissioners appointed by the suprenv court , a line wns tun due west to the Mis sourl river and a line eastward , not duo east but varying about two degrees north o east , to the middle of the Des Molnes rivet making n deviation of nbout three mile north ot east before the line reaches the De Molnes river. This accounts for the Irac tlonal subdivisions. Criminal Imrryer DlNtinrrvil. SIOUX CITY. July 31.

The mattpr grows out of the revolt of the students 0 ( the Stnte Agricultural college In 1S&2. bnnccount of trouble In the Stnte Board p ( Regents over the facttlty of the school. Dr , MaLjiith , presi dent of the Agricultural college , some time ngo endcred his resignation on account of the rouble. It was accepted , to go Into effect exl monlh. But subscquehtly the board c-rsuaded him to remain. This precipitated : ie row , with the board of regents equally Ivlded on the question of retaining Dr. Me- -.ottth as president , nnd Governor Sheldon pposcd to Dr. McLouth. In making recess appointments the govcr- or appointed Dr. Flnnerud of Wutcrtown s regent to fill an unexplred term which nn until March , 1S96. Governor Sheldon , nklng a poll of the board of regents before ending his appointments to the last legls- nturo for continuation , concluded that the cltmlion of Dr. Flnnerud on the board leant that Dr. McLouth would be re-elected resident of the Agricultural college , or else attse a deadlock In the board. Ho there- ore appointed Dr. Colter of Brooklngs and ho appointment was confirmed.

Then Dr. Coller secured from the supreme 'ourt ' an Injunction restraining Dr. Flnnerud rotn sitting on the board , nnd Dr. Flnnerud mmedlately secured from the st.tte court n Ike Injunction relative to Dr. Coller acting. Governor Sheldon has In an open letter .ccused President Shannon of the board vith misappropriating $150 of the state's noney. and likewise made a similar charge gainst Regent Hale of Scotland. Later the ; ovcrnor Issued n summons to Mr. Shannon , 'ailing ' him to on audience with the stnte executive to show cause why he ( Shannon ) hould not bo removed for taking the money. , Ir.

WATKH IIHJI ITS IN WYOMIXtS. DecUlon K > | M'ti'il on a Point of Iii- tiTCHt to Irrigation I'riiiuotiTH , CHEYENNE. July 31. ( Special. ) In the state of Wyoming the subject ot Irrigation ins become so Important that litigation con cerning water rights Is much more frequent han controversies concerning the title of and. There is nt present pending'In the courts of this state a question , the decision of which will be wutcheil for with Intense ntercst by settlers. Under the , water laws nny person appropriating water from any of the streams of the state Is compelled to stale Just 'wlmt lands he Intends to Irrigate jy the proposed .appropriation. Uneler the construction placed upon tills- law by'the ' State Board of Control , a body clothed by law with the settlements of disputes as to water rights , a person appropriating water for use on a particular piece of land can use the water so appropriated on that land only , and hns no right to use It to Irrigate any other land. If followed from this construc tion that ii water right once acquired could not be transferred unless the land on which It was originally appropriated was also trans- Tlowcver , mnny of the leading lawyers of the state disagreed with this construction and claimed that under the constitution of the btate the water right could be trans ferred , , and further , than an approprlator of water might use it on such lands as he deemed best. . A case finally arose and the matter Is be ing tested. On a stream In I aramle county , Wyoming , thete nre three appropriates , there , however , not b lng sufuclcnt water for all three. Upon an adjudication of the water rights of the parties , the first right was awarded to the owner who lived , second to this adjudication on the stream. Subsequent tion this owner of the prior right transferred part of his right to water to the owner who resided below him on the stream. The owners at the head of the stream , claiming that the transfer wns void , used all the water they wanted. Thereupon an Injunction suit was Instituted , restraining the use of the water by the owners at the head of the stream. The district court decided that the transfer was valid , contrary to the construc tion placed on the law by the Board of Control , and the whole matter has now gone to the supreme court of Wyoming. The de cision will be an Important one to the entire west and In the state of Wyoming will forever settle a large number of disputes be tween settlers. leM | > orate IIorNc Thieves Siirronniloil.
