Mr * . Anule .latut-N HUM 11 Suit . \Kaliint
the Clilt-f of 1'ollce.
Mrs. Annie James , wife of Judge W. C.
James , commenced suit In the district court
yetterday against Chief of Police Frank A.
Blxby and wlfo to compel them to reconvey
back to her two lots In Baylls' second addi
tion. The property In question Is the pres
ent homt of Chief Blxby and formerly be
longed to Mrs. James , who now comes Into
court and alleges that she was Induced to
trade the lots through false representations.
According to the petition filed Mrs. James
eets forth that she was the owner ot lots
C and 7 In block 12 , Baylls * second addition
and that Blxby claimed to bo the owner ot
a quarter section In Holt county , Nebraska ,
which she alleges he represented us being
clear from all encumbrances , that forty
acres was under cultivation and that the
remainder was good grass land. Blxby
placed the value of his land at 12.000 and
Mrs. James her lots at $6,000. Without
going to look over the land Mrs. James
traded her property for the land and $4.000
to boot. Tbo JI.OQO was represented by a
mortgage and two notes. Later Mrs. James
alleges she found that Blxby practically had
no title to the land , that the taxes for the
years 1892 to 18 ! > 7 were unpaid and the
laud had gone to tax sale. Also that ten
,
acres only were under cultivation and that
not to exceed ( orty acres wus grass land.
She states that she offered to deed back the
land to Blxby and return him the mortgage
md notes U he would recoiivey to her the
two lots. This ehe says he refused to do.
She now asks the court to order that the
trade bo declared off and that , Mr. nnd Mrs.
Blxby be compelled .to reconvey bnck to
her her property.

E. A. Wlckham's contract for the paving
of North First , North Second , Bryant and
North Main streets between Broadway and
Washington avenue and Willow avenue be
tween Main and Third street * was approved
and by resolution the time for completing
the work was extended until July 1 , 1890 *
These streets will bo paved with Council
Bluffs brick , both top and bottom courses.
The ordinance repealing the newsboys'
ordlnanco was passed and the boys who
have paid the $2 license will bo refunded
the amount proportionate to the unexplrcd
porlton of the year.
The ordinance establishing the grade on
Perrln avenue was also passed , but the gen
eral sidewalk ordinance went only as far
as the second reading and was laid over.
Alderman Casper brought up the matter
of widening Pierce street between First and
Stutsman , it being the portion of the street
ordered repaved. In 1891 , when Pierce
street was paved with brick , the street was ,
by resolution , ordered widened at the city's
expense , be setting back the curbing on
both sides. The portion between First and
Stutsman streets , however , was not widened
at that time as the block paving being In
good condition was not repaved. Now that
It Is going to be repaved , Alderman Casper
Is anxious that It should be widened. The
matter was referred to a special committee ,
consisting of the mayor , city-engineer and
Alderman Casper. The council adjourned ,
to meet next Monday night.

DES MOINES , Oct. 17. ( Special Tele
gram. ) Adjutant General M. II. Byera was
at his office In the. Iowa capitol today after
his return from San Francisco , where ho
went at Governor Shaw's direction , to In
vestigate the conditions for the purpose of
making a report on the needs of the Fifty-
first Iowa volunteers. He had been In Camp
Mori-lain since September 30. Genoriil Dyers
said today :
"I found some kickers nmoiiR the men ,
but the great majority of the regiment are
soldiers and are ready to obey orders. I
would like to recommend that those who
do not want to go to Manila bo transferred
for men In the Fifty-second. I nte with
the men In each of the twelve companies
and found them provided with excellent
army rations , nil that a soldier could ask.
j I The men who are well have gained from
I I five to twenty pounds since they arrived
' In Snn Francisco. The regiment Is now
,
I ] supplied with all the clothing and equipment
' they can ask for. I found the division hos
pital , In which my Bon-ln-law. has been
sick , In the best sanitary condition. There
were 336 sick men when I arrived there
j ( ' and when I left there were 210. The health
of the men of the different regiments bus
wonderfully Improved since they moved from
| i Camp Merrltt. When the men first arrived !
'
In San Francisco and when the recruits
began to come to the regiment , It was very
hard to get clothing for them. Requisitions
were made on Juno 6 and were not filled
until the latter part of July. But It was
no fault of regimental commanders , but
the clothing could not bo obtained from
I ! the government , as It was short of cloth-
Ing. "
Mtirilrr or Sulrliluf
"Is It murder or suicide ? " Is the question
before a coroner's jury In this city. Mrs.
Jcnnlo , Stadlo , who was married two weeks
ago to Joseph Stadle , a volunteer In Com
pany A of the Fifty-second volunteers , on
his return "to " Camp McKlnley after a fur
lough , died yesterday afternoon while In
an ambujcnce , Wednesday evening a doc
tor 'was called to the Northwestern hotel
hero and resuscitated her from the effects
of a dose qf morphine. Her' husband was
with her and the next day sent her alone
In a hack to her homo In a suburb. She
was dangerously -\vorso Sunday , another
doctor was called nnd she was ordered to
the hospital , dying on the way. Her dying
statement to J. II. Swlsher , a friend who
was in the ambulance with her , having been
kept by , a friend of her husband from seeIng -
Ing her until then , was that Stadlo had
Induced her to get the morphine and take
half by pretending to take the other half.
The testimony before the jury also showed
that she had only a cracker to eat from
Wednesday to Sunday and that -when Stadlo
went to her home and found her dead ho
wont away ami has not been located since.

FORT DODOE , la. . Oct. 17. ( Special. )
Sheriff Dowil nnd the local police of this
1 city are puzzled over the work of what Is
believed to be an organized gang of horse-
thieves operating between this place , Waterloo
lee , Cedar Rapids , Storm Lake and Doone.
In less than six weeks twenty-flvo horses
and several wagons of every description
have been taken from barns and the fronts
of private residences. The work begins with
the spotting of a harness and the necessary
wagon and then a horse or two to follow.
Sheriffs O'Banlen of Storm Lake , Law of
Waterloo , Garner of Boone and Dowd of this
city have laid a trap for the gang and It Is
said several arrests of well known horsemen -
men are likely to follow. A number of dep
uties have been sworn In and nearly every
farmer In 'the ' county Is clothed with the
authority of an officer. The city police are
working In conjunction with the various
sheriffs for the capture of some of the
thieves.
Fatally Hurt.

son , the stone on which he was sitting
slipped and he was thrown to the ground
and the entire load passed over his body.
The accident happened near the farm house
of John Rlchey and Mr. Unkrer was able
t'o reach the house and tell them ho vas
(
badly Injured. A physician was hastily sum
moned , but before ho arrived death had re
lieved the Intense suffering of the Injured
