CARBEE WILL MAKE TROUBLE Deputy Fish Oomm'saioner and Qaro o Warden Rospcots His Authority , PROPOSES TO ARREST THE GILBERT B.10S Ally Attempt ( o Trniinfcr 1'Nli from IIIK J.nlte < o ( he Itt-Ncrvolr Will Mown idle IIMI'M \Vratli. There promsea to be a conflict between the city and the state authorities as represented In the persons of the jark commissioners on ono side and the deputy game warden on the other. The trouble has arisen over the order given Saturday by the commissioners permitting Gllb'crt Ilrothcrs to take fish from Dig lake- for the purpose of stocking the largo reservoir they have constructed In the vicin ity of the lake. Yesterday Deputy Game War den and Klsh Commissioner Carbee served nottco on Gilbert Brothers that be would ar rest and prosecute them or any persona work. Ing for them 1C they attempted to take ad vantage of the permission given by the park commissioners. In the olllclal notice he gave them he notified them that the waters of the lolco ore within the jurisdiction of the state and subject ip the fish protective laws. To get the fish for the purpose of stocking the Gilbert lake It will bo uccnsary to USD a large seine , and under the state law this can. not bo used for any purpose. Gilbert Urotliers promptly shoved the no tice served upon them Into the waste basket and Informed the emissary of the law that they would proceed today to work under the direction of the park commissioners and take as many fish from the lake by the uoa of a net ns they saw fit or considered to be neces. sary to properly stock the largo and deep body of water they have created. The flsht commissioner notified them that he would been on hand with a suitably force of assistants to properly enforce the law. The park commissioners scout the Idea that the state has any claims on the lake and announce that they had about reached the decision of calling a halt In the Inter ference of the state with the management of the park property. The lake lies almost wholly wlthlib the boundaries of the tract o ! government land deeded to the city by the federal government several years ago , and which extends across the 'Missouri ' river and takes up a portion of the land In East Omaha. The land was secured through Colonel W. < V. linpp when ho was a member of congress from the Ninth district and the deed runs to thu city In. the name of the park commissioners. The commissioners as- licrt their belief that the federal government Is somewhat bigger than the state of Iowa after the fish commissioner and all of his deputies have been added and they main tain that the deed from thu United States gives them absolute control over the lake and make It as much a part of the city's property and under the jurisdiction of the park commissioners as the fountain in Bay- llss or the basin in Falrmount park. They will .back . Gilbert Uros. and will sustain their orders. Dpputy iCafbee asserts that under the In structions of Judge Green and the Interpre tation of the fish protective laws then given he has no other course to pursue than to promptly arrest any persons who go Into the lake with a seine and says he will execute the law. There Is little doubt that the fish will perish If left In the lake this _ winter , but Carbee Is persistent and can , easily make himself and the law ridiculous If he so elects. OUTI'UT OK THIS IOWA COM , MIMCH. Annual Itc-port of Stnto IiiMiu'clom Short N IliiNliit-NH linnet Ilct-n Go ml. DBS MOINES. la. , Nov. 8. ( Special. ) The blenclal report of the three state mine Inspectors just filed with the governor , shows that Iowa's mining business is not as good asit ought to 'be and that sharp competition has made the 'business ' much leas attractive than formerly. During the apst two years there was taken from the 358 coal mines of the state 7,325,224 tons of coal , valued at $9,534,677. There was paid lu. this period In wages to miners the sum of $5,642,342 and $2,161,764 to other persons connected with the mines or bus- li'css. The number of miners employed was 3,483 and other persons 2,987. , The average price paid per ton for mining was 77 cents 'and the average selling 'price ' 'per ton of the product at the mints was $1.30. The ex- 'penso of trackage at the mines and other Incidental expenses amounted to $687,91)3. ) Inspector Thomas of the Third Inspection district says in his report that close com petition has caused stagnation In business and prices have been sliding down until they cease to be remunerative either operator or minor. Still ho reports that despite the adverse circumstances that the trade has had to contend with In the last two jears and the unflattering outlook for the business , there have been nine now rail road mines opened since the last report In. . the district , the operators "basing " their hopes of success presumably on the ground of a probable return to more prosperous times. With only three mines worked out and nbandcncd It leaves a gain of six railroad mines since the last biennial report. The iaw enacted 'by the Twenty-sixth general assembly to prohibit the sale of Impure oil for use In the mines has been very satis factory In Ita results. The only difficulty the Inspectors have had to contend with In regard to It la there arc so many firms that manufacture cheap and Impure oil that there nre but few 'brands ' that come up to the required standard and this makes pure oil a rarity. Inspector Miller reports that In. the Second end district the eastern counties of the state trade , has been better and while wages have not been higher the miners have earned more .money. 'Ho suggests a state board ofr arbitration for all miners' diffi culties. For the First district the south ern counties of the state Inspector Camp bell reports generally good sanitary condi tions 'Many of the miners have not oper ated to exceed one-third of the time and business has been very unsatisfactory. He- cently , however , foreign competition has de creased and railroad tralllc has Increased , giving a 'better ' outlook for the future. There have been nine mines opened and four aban doned In the district. ici.vvn HUM ) FOII STICAMM ; STOCK. liullHoil for Driving Off ( lie Call If of IllH Kniiliitr. . The grand jury lin the district court made a partial return yesterday , returning thrco Indictments. In two of these cases the men Indicted are under arrest. One Is John Klnnc , who stole fourteen head of young cattle from his employer , Solomon McMillan , In Crescent township , and drove them to the South Omaha market. Klnne was a farm hand , In whom the farmer had great confidence and who was the acknowledged suitor for his daughter. Klnne wtolu the cattle on Friday night a week ago , drove them through Coun cil Bluffs In the night , made the sale In South Omaha and returned In time the next day to take the farmer's girl buggy riding and also to bestow upon her same valuable presents , purchased with the money ho bad secured from the sale of her father's cher- Ishtxl young cattle. The other Indictment was agalnat J , It. Stout , charging him with aosault with Intent to do great bodly Injury upon the person of Henry Thompson. Doth men are strangers hero and are thought by the police to be pro fessional-crooks , who got Into a fight over &omi ) deal. Three of them were stopping at at the Tremont house , and the two suddenly turned on Thompson , who Is a one-armed man , and were giving him a terrible .beating when byitandera Interfered to save his life. There wao no olllcer n sight , but Dog Catcher Dobion drove along In bis buggy la time to nee part of the trouble. Ho chaied Stout end caught htm but the other roan escaped. Doth men were taken to the city jail. Thompson refused to testify against Stout , but lufncient evidence wa secured from other witnesses to hold him to the grand jury.

The Board of County Supervisor ! ) mot yes terday for the purpose of canvassing the vote cast In the county at > the general elec tion held lust Tuesday , The work of ac complishing this Is not of a very onerous character , for under the law all the mem bers have to do Is to figure up the rcturnu as Indicated on < lie backs of the precinct poll hooka and examine the books to etc If the returns have been properly entered. The board has nothing whatever to do with counting tin ballots. The proceedings were watched yesterday by a largo number of Interested candidates and their friends. The hooks of precinct after precinct wcro taken up and gone over without making nny change In the totals or the discovery of any ecrlouB delinquencies' on the part of the judges of election until Knox township was reached. U was discovered that the judges had made a rather peculiar blunder and had returned the vote of the precinct that was cast for the legislative ticket as being cast for the "judgo of the district court to fill vacancy. " The error arose from the fact that the judges had used the wrong blank space In the back of the book to re cord the legislative vote. No candidate was 'being voted as Indicated , and County Attor ney Saundcrs was called upon to state the law. He decided that the vote must r.tanu as returned and that the legislative vote was lost. This will not affect the result , as the majority for Putnam nnd Potter , the two republican candidates , was so largo that the loss of ono township will not bo no ticed. No other changes were made until the board reached the icturns from the Second precinct of the Third ward , when It was dis covered that n clerical error had robbed William Arnd of eleven votes. The correc tion gives the coveted ten votes to bring hla plurality up to 1,000 , with ono to spare. In the Second precinct of the Sixth ward , otherwise Cut Oft Island , some serious dis crepancies were discovered which may rif sult In e'cctlng Prof. Paulson county super intendent. On the face of the total returns Prof. 11. W. Sawyer still has five more votes than his opponent , but the returns from this precinct showed that only two of the judges had signed the book. The returns also failed to show that the oath had been properly certified. All of the Judges had signed the oath but had failed to give the certificate to that effect which the law re quires. The Judge who failed to sign the returns Is George Cooper. Under the law. If strictly Interpreted , either ono of these grave omissions will Invalidate the returns , and If the precinct Is thrown out Sawyer will be defeated. Of the total vote cast on the Island he received twenty-seven nnd Paulson six. Sawyer's attorney was pres ent and listened to the discussions of the board concerning the propriety of throwing out the precinct. The members had about reached the conclusion to think over the matter until this morning , when the attor ney gave them futther reason for doing so by filing a request for a continuance to per mit him to look Into the law and be hoard In the matter. It will bo settled when the board meets again for the purpose this morning. It is scarcely regarded as prob able that the precinct will be thrown out. HUHI.VHM < I'liI-iASED TO ESCAPE. PoMtnl Clerk Exonerated by tlic Cn - ture of tiltItenl Thief. Postal Clerk IJrlll returned yesterday from his week's run over his route between Coun cil Bluffs and Ogdcn nnd received n second edition of congratulations from his friends over the discovery of the thief who got away with the $15,000 money package that was lost In Uio malls. Brill had nn Interview with the thief , Walter Houghton , In the Cheyenne Jail. He said he discovered the oversight of Brill when his fellow postal clerk was check ing over 'to him the registers at 'the ' enj of his run ut Cheyenne. Brill was handling the pouches and be called ! check when ] the extra pouch was delivered to him. He coolly In formed 'Brill he had made up his mind sev eral months ago to steal a pouch and was only waiting nn opportunity , which came very opportunely when ho discovered the extra pouch that Brill had neglected to enter upon his book. Mr. Brill learned while In Cheyenne enno tbit It would bo Houghton's plan to escape punishment by feigning Insanity. His work In connection with the whole trans action , ho thinks , was so coarse that It will entitle him to make the plea that he be lieves will save him. Ho will bo arraigned for trial on November 12. The federal grand jury meets on November 11 and It Is certain that on Indictment will be returned against the Foster woman , who Is under arrest as an accessary before and after the fact. Houghton will be indicted upon twenty-one counts , with penalties attached aggregating 105 years of imprisonment. Houghton told Brill that he expected to get off with a sen- tene of lees than two years If he wus not acquitted. It Is expected that the case will bo tried before Judge Ulner. The loss of the large money pdckage has called public attention to the large amounts of money being transmitted through the malls. Observation at the transfer depot In this city gives a still better Idea of both tfoo enormous suma of money that It ) being dally carried In the mall cars and the utter ab sence of any sort of protection. For the last month or two shipments of gold have aver aged from 300 to 3,000 pounds each week. Ono day last week 2,100 pounds of gold ) coin were transferred hero from the Burlington mall cars. On another day 1,900 pounds went through. It was handled the same as any other mall matter Is handled. Packages weighing 300 pounds were placed In each registry pouch. In transferring the bags one of .them dropped between the cars. It waa necessary to cull for extra help to lift It out of the dark hole Into which It had fallen. I'ulilltt Mlirnry Ilr-port.

Sioux City Journal : Iowa republicans , It appears , when only half awake can beat the Combined sllvcrltcs. Iowa City Republican : Shaw's vote Is 10,364 majority over all candidates and 30- 472 plurality over White. Des Molnes Leader : The passage of a manufacturing hill that will manufacture Is the duty of the coming legislature. Ottumwa Courier : The future Iowa Jury has It onto the court reporter. The re porter , under the new voile , must take down ' everything the Jury has to listen to. Dc-s Molnes Capital : If the republicans of Iowa can lay thu democrats out as they did this year , without half trying , what could they do It they were In dead earnest ? DCS Molnes News : The weakness of pop ular government Inheres In the fact that the worst man's vote counts for as much as the ihest man's. And the danger Is In- j tcnslficd by the fact that the worst mar. sometimes votes more than once. | Davenport Democrat : iMr. White received more votes , 'by about -100 , lu this congres sional district than Mr. Shaw. A year ago Mr. McKinley received 4 ISC more votes In the Second than iMr. ilirynn. This Indicates a decided change , 'but ' It can be mostly ac counted for by the gold democrats of Scott coun.ty . who voted for iMcKlnley but who did not vote for White. Whore the votes will go next year will depend very largely on I the issues. | Des Molnes Lender : Attention has largely ben. called to the fact that at the recent election In Iowa the democrats did much better for legislative candidates than for the head of the ticket. On the head of the ticket the democrats carried but twenty legislative districts , represented by twenty- four members ; whereas the total number of democratic members of the lvwer house elected is thirty-eight , a gain of twelve members. The silver question entered ICFS Into the candidacies for members of the house than It did for the governorship , and . ' In view of this fact the greater legislative gains arc certainly significant.
