tecnth street with granlto blocks and that
It bo relieved from paving tho one foot
outsldo each of Its two outside rails. !)y
this urrnngerocnt tho city guts six Inches
more of paving free of cost than It would
othorwlse. Tho motor company Is required
to pave botween Its tracks and one foot
outside. Had this been followed it would
havo left a space of two feet and six Inches
between the two tracks to bo paved by tho
city. Under the new arrangomcnt tho en

arrangement and waived any rights he
might havo under his contract.

side crossings there.
Dlds for the laying; of several miles of
brick sidewalks were received from O. K.

cently as a result of his buggy being upset
on Broadway near the Illinois Central

tual damages he had sustained to his buggy
nnd himself. Tho matter was referred to
tho judiciary committee.

Tho contract with John M. Hardin for
tho laying of certain brick sidewalks was
upproed.
City Engineer Etnyre submitted his re
port on the Uolln sidewalk contract and
tho condition of tho walks laid under tho
contract which was awarded In July, 1898,
and It was referred to the committee of

ter of paving South Sixth street was

Jennings Informed the council that he had
not signed the contract, as he was waiting
for advice from the city solicitor, who Is
out In the country campaigning, as to what
effect the notice served on the city by the
motor company would havo. In answer to
several of tho aldermen, the mayor stated
that he thought he could secure the ad
vice he wanted beforo Thursday evening.
Attention was called by several of the
aldermen Ho the bad condition of brick
sidewalks in different portions of the city.
During the discussion Alderman Boyer
stated that a now walk In his ward had
been greatly damaged by a. certain common
carrier driving his heavy wagons over It.
Ho said he had reported the matter to the
police and suggested that the man bo pros
ecuted and an example made of him, as

Railroad Man Catches a Sneak Thief
In the Very Aol.
Lewis Peterson, a railroad man board
ing' at the Depot hotel, cashed his tlrao
check Sunday, and during tho evening
visited a saloon on South Main street.
Thero he displayed a roll of bills. When
he returned to his boarding house he went
to sleep with his clothes on and kept his
hand In his pooket over the money, the wad
contained 154 in bills. He was awakened
about i o'clock yesterday morning by a
tickling sensation on the wrist of the hand
he had In his pocket. He kept his eyes
closed a few seconds and the tickling con
tinued, uo withdrew his hand from his
pocket and as he did so. he felt another
hand there. Jumping to bis feet ho saw
a stranger whom he had met in the saloon
that night. With a well directed blow he
laid the fellow out cold, and arousing the
other Inmates of the houso sent for the
police. At the station tho fellow gave the
name of James Oalbralth. He was first
booked on the charge of breaking Into a
building during tho night, but later In Jus
tice vten-s court where Peterson filed an
Information tha charge was obanged to one
of assault with Intent to commit larceny.
It
is supposeq uaibralth saw Peterson's
oil and followed him home, thinking to
secure the money as soon as the latter
ten asieop. As Peterson kept his hand In
his pocket over his wad Oalbralth resorted
to tho scheme of tickling tho wrist In tha
expectation that It would cause the sleep
ing man to withdraw his hand and thus
enable him (Oalbralth) to get the money
without arousing Peterson. Oalbralth
who is a stranger to the police will have a
bearing before Justice Vlen this morning.

dence for the state was submitted, when a

The evidence Introduced by the state

deed to the eighty acres In James town
ship, on which Scuter la alleged to havo

Lougee, were not those of Theodore Cowltz

attempted to assign It to tho firm of Officer

tho assignment was not complotcd. Frank
Pusey having expressed his willingness to

J. It. Reed, guardian of W. If. M. Pusoy,
wero authorized by Judge Macy yesterday
to take the necessary steps to have tho

It Is said that at tho meotlng this after

DK3 MOINES, Oct. 29. (Special Tele
gram.) Circulars of private and confiden
tial Instructions havo been sent out by
democratic Chairman Huffman, to party
workers nil over tho state urging tho or
ganization ot vigilance committees In ev
ery precinct. This seems to bo for watch
ing tho voto on election day and Intimidat
ing voters who aro presumed to bo dcslr
ous of casting a ballot for the republican
candidates. It Is a last final effort of tho
dcmocratlo cominlttco to attempt to pro
vent tho republican landslide which Is
threatened In tho stato this fall. The cir
cular says lu part:
Call n private meeting of your workers
the night beforo election nnd get each man
to promise to get from ono to three doubt
ful voters to the polls early in the morning.
Havo ous or more cinmocrats al tho votlDg
place to check off the democrats as tiny

Socialist Point of View.
Trof. Gcorgo D. Herron. the famous so
clallst educator who was forced to resign
a professorship at Orlnnell colleco. ad
dressed a meeting In the Auditorium here
tonight under tho auspices of tho social
ists democratic committee. Prof. Herron
to a reporter said ho thought the republi
can party would get a larger number of
tno socialistic votes of the country this
year because the re-election of President
McKlnley means the further devolon ment
of trusts and other combinations of capital
wnicn win naturally aid the socialist
party in future years In perfecting a eood
organization and placing all trusts undnr
publlo ownership. Of the political condl
lions or this country Prof. Herron said
"I have no doubt that McKlnley will he
ro-oiectea this year and It Is good
news 10 us. n is Just what wo want. If
Bryan wero elected and commenced to
tamper with the trusts and try to restrain
monopolies It would hurt our cause and
republican success this fall would thero
foro be gratifying to us. I bellevo that
one-third of the people are roallv snelal
lsts at heart, but the organization Is not
yot crystallzed. I oxpect to sen several of
me states controlled by tho socialist party
m Bimo elections in another four yearn.'

Loula Company,
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 29. In the United States
circuit court today, Judge Amos Thayer de
nied the application of the Guaranty Trust
company of New York and Julius Walsh, for
tno appointment of a separate receiver for
the Omaha & St. Louis Railroad company.
in denying tho application, Judge Thayer
stated that to appoint one would seriously
Interfere with the harmonious operation of
the road, Inasmuch as It Is directly allied
with tho Kansas City & Northern connect
ing company and the Omaha, Kansas City &
Eastern. The Judge further stated that
tho services of Receiver James Hopkins will
bo dispensed with after November 1.
Judgo Thayer further stated that he saw
no reason why the final sale of the road
should not be decreed within the next ninety
day.
The proceedings were directed against
tho Omaha & St. Louis Railway company.
C. II. Chappell and James Hopkins, receivers
thereof, the Missouri Railway Construction
company and 8. W. Fordyco and Webster
Winters, receivers for the Kansas City,
Pittsburg & Quit railway.
It Is proposed to foreclose the mortgage
on the Omaha & St. Louis railroad and to
this end suit has been brought In the
United States district court for the western
district of Missouri and In the federal court
of the western division of the southern
district of Iowa. Judge Thayer hold that.
while both courts have Jurisdiction, he
prefers, for several reasons, that 'the case
be tried by the Iowa court.
Surprised at Hays' Ileslanatlun.

prise at tho resignation of Charles M. Hays.
general manager of the Grand Trunk, and
his acceptance of the position of president

rent of popularity running in favor of Vice
