The ordinance regulating gas ana wa

box at the corner of Tenth street arid Bro :

$30. Of this aiijount he says $24.50 rep
scnted loss of time nnd $5.50 medical se :
Ices. The niiUtor was thoroughly discus :
by all the aldermen present , but It \
finally decided not to compromise the ca
ax It might have a bearing on Xeilse
claim of $2GOO damages arising from
legcd injuries caused by the same sti
box.
During the discussion Alderman Casj
staled that a certain man had inforn
htm that one of the persons claiming da
ages from the city by reason of this sti
box being above grade had really Injui
his foot by kicking a telegraph polo tl
wa.s strapped with wire. The man In qu
lion told him , Mr. ' Casper said , that '
wire staple had been the mcanu of cutt ;
the man's shoe and his foot and that th
was nothing in his story that ho 1
titubbcd his too against the stop-box. Wl
aeked for the man's name , Mr. Casper she
ho had forgotten to ask it at tbo time t
was now sorry thnt he bad not.

Dtt3 M01NCS. Jan. 29. ( Special Tc
gram. ) The legislature met this aftcrnc
at , 2 o'clock and after a brief session t
Journcd until tomonow. A few minor hi
wore Introduced. The entire Interest of I
members Is over the appointment of Coloi
Hood ns chairman of the State Boaul
Control by Governor Shaw. The commlti
appointed by the senate to report on t
appointment will probably meet tomorn
morning. Senator Finch , n member of t
committee , stated this evening that tin
was a tacit understanding that , a conclusl
would bo reached on Tuesday. There
little doubt nt this tlmo that the commit !
will report favorably , although It Is cqua
certain n bitter light will rdsult on the lie
of the senate over the confirmation of t
appointment. Today a large delegation
soldiers called nt the state honso a
worked In Rood's Interest. They dcslro
old soldlur on the board. From present I

defeated , but the republicans arc lined
with the democrats and they control the b

This will be a busy week for the appt
prlatlons committee. As both commltu
have decided to recommend no money tin
the claims of nil persons asking sums
presented , there will bo a long list of hot
lugs In the near future. Already the re
resentatlve of the Panamerlcnn cxposltl
Interests and those interested In the mon
menta to be built on the buttlefleld
Shlloh , have been heard. The regents' coi
mlttco from the State university will a

the Illinois Central for having helped tc
make Omaha tributary to Council Bluffs.
iMr. Merry closed the feast hurriedly bj
saying that the fine train which had been sc
much complimented did not como by chance
but was duo to the fact that there Is a cor
responding business to be won by Its com

the city nnd the newspaper fraternity vvhlcli
had helped ho assured the people of Omahr
that they would llnd that the local olllccre

NEW YORK , Jan. 29. The sevcn-storj
building In Cherry street occupied by U
Heywood Brothers & Wakcflold Manufactur
ing company as a chair factory was de
stroyed by lire today , during the prevalence
of u fierce gale , which made the work of thi
liremcn extrtracly difficult. When the flr <
broke out there were about 150 men at worV
In the building , but all escaped without In-
Jury. The bursting of n tank on the roof o
the building , which precipitated 10,000 gallons
lens of water upon the fire raging beneath It
generated so much steam that the walls
burst out. Part of the east wall fell upon
the Gcrrlsh.vaiohouso and carried three fire
men with It. For a time It was feared the
men were lost , but they were extricated
without having rustalncd aerlous Injury.
The ioss on the building nnd Its contents ,
which wore completely destroyed , Is esti
mated at $500,000.
