The bond of A. G. Edward ? , city treasurer-
elect , furnished by the Fidelity and Deposit
company of Maryland , In the sum of $100,000 ,
was approved by the city council last night ,
nil of the members voting for It except Burk-
ley and How ell , who voted against It , and
Calm and Jnynes , who wore abssnt.
Mr. Bechel was called to the chair for the
meeting , nnd the finance committee presented
the following report.
Your committee , to which wn * refened
the bond of Albert O. Kilwards. city lions-
urrr-elpct , signed by the Fidelity nnd De
posit company of TVtarylnml , begs leave to
r.port tlint It bus given the matter careful
attention.
The last legislature pa sed n law authoriz
ing security companies to bond public olllclnls
In the stnte of Nebraska. It lias become nl-
most nn axiom with Mnln not to accept
peisonnl bonds for Us olllccrs or umplo\e ,
tor the specially recognized reason that the
bank would , by such ncccptnnce , be under
obligations to the sureties. The same ob
jection lies , with perhaps greater force ,
with public ofllclnls charged with the cus
tody of public funds. The plnn of accepting
such u bond , which is comparatively new In
Nebraska , lias the commendable elements
In It of at least freeing the tlty treasurer
of nil such Influences , nnd It mukes It pos
sible to better servo the Interests of the peo-
> le. Such bond Is nt best Insurance against
1 o < i. It Is tit least questionable why one
ulass of people should Insure their neigh
bors ngnlnst lo s , where one nnin Is Just nn
much Interested ns the other , partlculnily
when u good surety bond can be obtnlned
whose ottlcers will see that the shortages
nnd defalcations do not occur , or If they do ,
they will be quickly detected nnd made
good.
Your committee confesses that Its mem-
ucrs nre wedded to the out methods , and
ylovv to accept new one , but It must admit
that upon careful Investigation It llmls
many good reasons why n surety company
bond Is preferable.
In reference to the bond submitted by A.
Q. Ijdwards , city treasurer-elect , wo beg to
report as follows :
I'lrst , the city nttorney drew the bond ,
and his letter Is herewith submitted , stating
that said bond Is executed according to
law.
law.Second
Second , your committee would liavo
ttrongly advised the division of the bond
among several surety companies , but such
a proposition Is not before us , and we uqder-
stand the charteis of some of these compa
nies prohibit the bonding to nn extent re
quired , nnd In addition , the legal department
declines to accept their form of bond.
Third , under the circumstances we have
the bond of the FIdollty and Deposit com
pany of Mnrjlnnd. duly executed and ap-
pioveil by tha city attorney , as to nil legal
points , and from the most tiustworthy
Hources nnd careful investigation jour com
mittee feels Justified In recommending the
bond as ample security for the purpose. The
city council Is authorized to call for addi
tional bond nt any tlm ? , should It be neces
sary. We took up the consideration of this
subject with preconceived Ideas adverse tn
accepting this band , but our investigations
have led us to the conclusion that the bond
lully protects the city , and should be ap
proved.
A concurrent resolution Is herewith sub
mitted , carrying into effect the recom
mendations of this report :
Resolved , Uy the city council , the mnvoi
concurring , that the bond of Albei t G. Kd-
vvnrds , city tren urer-clect. In the sum of
$100,000. executed bv the Fidelity nnd De
posit compiny of Maryland , by Its presi
dent , Edwin Warflcld , and Its becretary ,
Herman K. Hosier , dated December 3 , ISj ,
b ; and the same Is hereby approved.
On the adoption of the resolution Durkley
and llonell voted In the negative. Mr. nd-
wards was excutod from voting , and the
other thirteen members pressnt voted for the
resolution.
On the approval of the bond the same vote
prevailed. Mr. Hem ell explained that he had
asked the commlttea to explain or answer
csrtaln questions he asked concerning the
legal phase of the matter , and the committee
had failed to do so. He could not vate for
the bond until he had his questions r rod.
Mr. Kennard and Mr. Saunders alned
that they had opppsed the bond In ui > flri'i '
place , but had convinced themselves by In
vestigation that the bond was all right , and
to voted to approve It.
After the approval of the bond the council
adjourned until next Tuesday night.
LOOKS FOR HIS 'llISIjKASia TODAA.
Coulter 'SIIJM 111 * Mull llonil "Will lie
FuriilHlifil ThlH MoritliiK.
It lacked but a few minutes to 4 o'clock
yesterday afternoon when Jerome Coulter
and his guard arrived In Judge Berka's court
room. He were a satisfied smile and an
nounced to those around him that ho had at
length succeeded In securing ball In the sum
of $15,000 for his appearance In the district
court at a later date. Substantial evidence
to support this fact , however , he failed to
produce , and qualified his first statement by
adding that he had the positive promise of
four solid business men to appear at the po-
1'co station and sign the document In the
morning. The officer who accompanied
Coulter yesterday confirmed Coulter's state
ments as to his having received promises
from certain parties to go on the bond.
It Incidentally leaked out In the conversa
tion that the throe bondsmen whom Coulter
had already upon the paper had grown faint
hearted at the last moment and had with
drawn their na nes from the document. The
names of the men who are eald to bo wlll'ng
and anxious to back their capital against
Coulter's honor and honesty wera sedulously
withheld from the public , not even a list of
them being handed to Judge licrlta. It was
stated that each man In nuestion would nuallfy
for $25,000 and that they would positively ap
pear and act their parts before the police
judge In the morning.
Coulter seemed overjojed at the prospect
of an early release , as lilt > long confinement
appears to have worried him to a largo ex
tent. The rotund form of the ex-deputy city
treasurer has not fallen off any In the mat
ter of avoirdupois , but many new wrinkles
have made their appearance upon his fore
head and Ills face Is seldom free from n
constant express'on of care. The prisoner
left the court rom with a light step , and
repeated that the bond would assuredly bo
made out In proper form In the morning ,
and that there would be no question as to his
friends being present.

DOSTON , Dec. C Mall advices rrcMvcd
by relhblo persons In this city fiom Canton ,
glvo details of nn a tempt to capture the
city of Canton by a secret organization for
the purpose of establishing nn Independent
government.
The writer M > S : "Tho plot wa * exposed
October 22 , when the attention of the United
States consul vvns called to a suspicious fie *
gram from n Hong Kong firm to Its brnnch
In Canton , concerning the shipment cf certain
package * . The authorlles weri notified and
the packages , which proved to bo five barrels
of pistols nnd ammunition labell'd 'cement , '
were tulzod on their arrival. On the same
steamer from Houg Kong came -100 men who
expected to aid In the revolt. The cIHclaH ,
however , captured seventy-five of them The
revolutionists had no w jipon8 , but It v\ae
learned that they were to be supplied by
friends In the city. This seizure of arms
nnd the capture of those Implicated com
pletely thwarted ths attempt , nnd the au
thorities are now making diligent search for
the leader , as vvtll as for the weapons. It
Is tuld there nro thousands In sjmpathy
with the movement.
"The Hong Kong p'oplo speak of It as a
'pitrlollc movement and worthy of support.1
The plan of the organization , which originated
In Hong Kong , and was taken up In Canton ,
was first to capture the city treasury , next
to demolish the viceroy's * p.Mace. Hy this
time ( hey would expect sufficient aid to storm
tha city. Thov next expected to proclaim
an Independent government , nnd to take
measurcj to hold the city.
"The movement has Involved the Christians
to a considerable extent , nnd great cxclto-
mtnt prevails , and especially Inside the city
near the chapel , which had been used , un
known to the missionaries , as a sort of
rendezvous for some of the conspirators. "
