Continental Clothing Go , CITY WILL NOW PROPOSE Council to Present the Demands of the People to the Roads. SOME DISPUTED POINTS AGREED UPON Council Aniioiiiiem Unit It linn DC- clilctl to Clone Sot untvrlitli Street nnil the Itcmiln Arc ln- elitI'll to Iiinlnt. The city council nnd the attorneys tor he Burlington and Union Pacific roads came down to the actual discussion ot specific provisions of an agreement yesterday after- loon. The conference lasted about two tours , and at the cud the council wont Into executive session to draw up the propo sition of the city to the roads , which was o embody , as far ns possible , the common ; round reached In the afternoon's dclibera- lons. In all probability this proposition will bo reduce * ! to Its final form this morn- ng nnd will bo Immediately transmitted to , ho heads ot the roads. Councilman Dcchel presided over the meet ing. City Attorney Connell made the sug estion that the committee begin according to the lay of the land , taking up first the difficulties at Sixth street and working west. 'Attorney ' Cornish , for Liulnger & Mot- calf , ashed that Sixth street bo left In abeyance until the Union Pacific answered : helr proposition for the opening of a road n place of Sixth street. It was ngrced that Sixth street should be left out of the after noon's discussion. The subway at Seventh street nnd the via ducts at Tenth and Eleventh and the sub ways at Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets were passed. The paragraph relating to the Sixteenth street viaduct , stating that It ehould bo constructed according to the city engineer's plans , was passed with the understanding that It should l > e made to include the time limit , the end of the current year. When the Twenty-fourth street viaduct was mentioned , ns a possibility of "the " next three yenrs , members of the South Side Im provement club asked that the roads bo required either to build a suitable viaduct on that street at once , or to open the street. City ( Attorney Council , speaking as an In terestcd property owner , snld that It would bo much bolter for the residents of that portion of the city to wait a reasonable time and get n substantial viaduct than to Insist on Immediate action nnd get a wooden viaduct , which would stand for n number ot years , or to Insist on the building of the subway at Bancroft street and have the via duct delayed. South Slile Divided. The south elders were not entirely united as to what they wanted or the manner In which they would get In. One of the dele gates Insisted that there must be an Imme diate opening across or under the tracks on Twenty-fourth street. He would bo willing to wait a year for the viaduct , but he In > slated that the roads bo made to agree a once that they -would build it within tha time. Another resident of the dlstric across the tracks said that the proposition ' .or the tulldlng of a viaduct In a year and a half eeemcd to bo a fair one , nnd that 1 should bo satisfactory to the south sldore. General Manderson reminded the south alders that ho and Judge Baldwin wer simply the representatives ot their chiefs and that these chiefs were In a position to know the capabilities of the roads In th way of expenditures for viaducts. Th council had agreed to reduce the time to a year and one-half only tentatively , their nc tlon being subject to review. In regard to a viaduct on Boulevard stree the city attorney said that according to thi Interpretation of this clause by the attor noye for the roads Wednesday night 1 meant that the viaduct would bo built ni soon as the Park board 3iad put the streo In passable shape. There was no opposl tlon to this understanding. Upon the reading of the paragraph relat Ing to the ordinance against the obstruction of streets with cars , Judge Baldwin mad the unqualified statement that the Union Pacific < lld not desire the- repeal of the ordl nance. All his road had Intended to asl was that the portion of the ordinance re quiring It to maintain the forty-feet strip near the bridge as a road be repealed. I was unfortunate , the Judge eald , that tin title , by which the ordinance had been men tlonelTdld not Indicate Its real nature. Thi wording of the proposition was cxamlnci and found to mention the ordinance , and no simply a part of It. But with the under standing that the regulation regarding thi blockading of streets was not to bo touchei this portion of the agreement wns passed. The council reached the tacit agreemen to Insist on the exclusion of the clausi promising on the part of the city that no effort would 'ever bo made to reopen Flf teentli street. While the street was already closed and would probably remain so , never thelees the councllmen were of the opinion that the clause had no proper place In the agreement. The clause agreeing that the city shoult never seek to reopen any streets between Seventeenth and Twentieth , between Twen tleth nnd Twenty-fourth , Twenty-fourth and Bancroft and Bancroft and Boulevard was not discussed at length. City Attorney Connell stated that th council had agreed not to consent to the closing of Martha street until the complc tlon of tUo subway nt Bancroft street There was no objection from the roads Judge Baldwin took occasion to state her that the present management of the Union Pacific Intended to fulfill every promise made , and that while ho appreciated the feelings of the citizens toward the former management they were not to bo so treate ( any longer. This statement called forth applause. hfVcntiTiitli .Street Trouble-Homo. Llttlo progress toward a satisfactory agreement as to the cloelng of Seventeontt street was made. Sir. Stuht said that th council had decided to refuse to close It and Judge Baldwin said that his road would positively Insist that the proposal of the road In.regard to this point bo agreed to , am maintained that the same did not ask fo the _ closing of Seventeenth , but simply pro vlded that it should bo clo&cd wtten the roads had shown to the satisfaction of the council that they had made a satlsfactor ; agreement with the property owners. Hi claimed that the city was not asked to glvi up anything , The advisability of abollbhlng all grndi crossings was discussed , General Marnier son urging that the city would within a ton jenrs find that a necessary step , nnd tha the closing of Seventeenth street under the proposed favorable conditions was simply a step In that direction. The discussion then recurred upon the subject of the city's disputed claims agalns the roads for the lighting , policing and car Ing for the viaducts In past years. Genera Manderson stated that Instead of being $4 000 , ns had been claimed by some of the speakers at Wednesday night's meeting , the actual amount claimed by the city was on ! ' $30,000 , of which a large portion had out lowed and the remainder waa In dispute. The city attorney stated that the coun ell had agreed that no reference to these ac counts should bo made In the agreement General Manderson was doubtful wtaethe the heads of the roads would consent to at agreement without bomo reference to the claims in it. The council then went into executive ses elon , General Manderson and Judge Bald win requesting them to complete the propo sltlon of the city as quickly as possible , a the heads of the roads vvcro about to leavi the city.

That values vary In different countries ha > een demonstrated by the several estimates ilacoJ upon < i Hussion fox&Vln eo.U owned by lenry Stern. "OS North Sixteenth street. It vas stolen from n line In the back yard on no evening of March 31. John Deltbrldge nd John Sutlon were arrested nnd tried on ho charge of grand larceny. The. owner nd three other persons were on the stand nd each placed the value at $100 , the orlg- nnl purchaser claiming that It cost n con- ury note In Hussla , where It was bought , t was on this testimony that the court held ho theft to bo grand larceny , the value of ho stolen goods 'being ' over $33. In the upper ourt Uollbrldgo and Sutlon were acquitted , ho state being unable to produce stifilclcnt vldenco to convince the Jury of their guilt. V few dajs ago both were arrested on BUS- ilclon and it was during their incarceration it this tlmo that n tip wns received which ed to the arrest of Hen Wlttlg , who sold ho coat to a saloon-keeper named Joseph Volshnrtlnger for J2 33. Fearing that he night slip up on the * value of the coat It Wlttlg were accused of grand larceny , Dep uty County Attorney Hclslcy sent the coat o Shugart , the furrier , for the purpose of earning its true valuo. Mr. Shugart said ho coat ought not to cost nioro than $5.50 n any market. This valuation places a different phase on ho case entirely. Now n charge of petty arceny will bo placed against Wlttlg and the police Judge will dispose of htm. The case against Dellbrldgo and Button probably cost the county $250 , nnd had they been sent o the penitentiary on the testimony of the 'our witnesses who estimated the vatuo of the cloak at $100 it would have been an In creased cxpcnso to the stato.
