RULES TO GOVERN STATE INSTITUTIONS llonrd of Control Hu llrsun IJrairluit I p n Code of ItrKUlntlona I'rovld I11K for the Count)- ami 1'rlvnte Hospitals tor tbe Insane. DK3 MOINKS, Nov. 3. t3peclal Tele gram.) The returns seem to Indicate that Iowa has a constitutional convention on its hands that It does not really want. The voters knew little, about the poropsitlon. as it was quite forgotten In the campaign. If the Titus amendment providing for biennial Instead of annual elections carried, then it is also almost an assured fact that tbe other question submitted to the people that of the constitutional amendment will also carry. Returns at hand are still very meager, but la three-fourths ot tbe re turns the reports upon the two questions are not dissimilar. Senator Titus threo days before election declared he believed the amendment would carry and that It would also carry with It the constitutional convention question. Karlr returns show this to be the case. The number and personnel of the mem bers of the constitutional convention must be decided by the general assembly at Its nxt session. The code provides that the general assembly shall determine the lime and place of holding such a convention and shall also cheoao tbe members of the con vention. Full po"er Is also given to the legislature to fix the number of delegate's. At the state house there is some surprise manifested at the fact that early indl a tlons point to the carrying of the constitu tional revision. Tho state constitution provides that the matter be submitted to the people each tenth year after the year 1S70. In both lfiSO and 1R50 thu proposi tion was voted down and It uas the con sensus of opinion prior to election day that the question would suffer tbe same fate. The Hoard of Control has begun drawing up a code of rules by which county and private Insane asylums shall be governed In the future. A number of tho institu tions have been found to be In a deplorable condition and the rules to which they will soon have to comply will be almost revolu tionary. The first thing the board will re quire will be thu employment of more at tendants. They find that at the Polk county Institution there Is only one at tendant for fifty men and say this Is true at a number of the county hospitals. Some of the private hospitals will bo required to give patients more exercise. Little has been accomplished by the State Hoard of Health In its semi-annual ses sion beyond the transaction of routine business. Dr. Kennedy. In reporting upon the conditions at Ames in the State Agri cultural college typhoid fever epidemic, did not attribute tho sickness to accumula tions of 111th, but to a contamination of the milk supply.

Ho explained in detail the duties of tho note teller and thu . bank's clearing house transactions, He explained the balance sheets, which I showed a shortage ot 1690,000 In Alvord's ' department. Thu figures showed that tho 1 shortago varied and that from October 10 to October 13 It was $700,000. "You know that Alvord'B accounts wero made up from statements handed to him by other perrons In the bank?" asked Mr. Miller. "Yes, sir, purtly," answered Mr. Snow, Mr. Alvord wan supposed to take these statements of other employes as correct?" "Yes." Miller then led Snow to admit that since tho latter first becamo an olllccr of tho bank, two years ago, he had never known nfllccrs of tho bank to examine tho assets of the institution. Cashier William Heed of tho First Na tional bank was tho next witness. He said that the last tlmo tho bank had, nil examination was on October ID. Ha had no personal knowledge of any report of that examination. Morton V.

He explained tho details if making up tho sheets for tho clearing house.

The reading of this aotlee brought Johnston to his feet and he made quite a talk on the necessity for immediate ac tion. He asserted that the Mreet com missioner was overwhelmed with work and advocated tin employment of a couple of men with a wagon to go about the city and replace wornout planks, etc. This work he said would save the city a great deal of money in the course ot a year and tho sidewalks would bo greatly Improved, besides damage sulfa might be averted. In the end it was agreed that two men woufd be employed for this purpose and . ,j . . , . . . .. ouia go anoui -ne cuy wun lumper, nans, sirs Sam H Christie, ion North Twenty etc., and replace missing planks.

The recent' election shows conclusively that more voting precincts are needed In South Omaha. In some precincts the vote was so heavy that the Judges and clerks were worn out long before tho count was finished. In the First ward there Is par ticular need of additional precincts or else a division of the ward. This has been talked of before, but for various reasons nothing has been done. When Johniton was mayor the question first came up. but Johnston opposed the proposition of ell vldlng the First ward for tho reason that It would entail on additional expense for the salaries of two moro councllmcn and also an Increased expense In the street repair department. Johnston had his way and the plan fell through. At various ! times since then tho plan of dividing the w-ard has come up. but was never put through. NOW that the VOtO is getting l0 ( heavy something must be done. Ad ditional voting precincts must bo provided or else the ward must be divided. This matter was brought to the attention of Mayor Kelly yesterday and u number of voters spoko to members of tin council about the neeil of some change In the present regulations. It has been suggested that two voting precincts be added to the First ward, ono to the Second ward and one to the Third ward, making an Increase of four precincts and a total of thirteen precincts. Hy increasing tho number of precincts tho facilities for voting can be bettered without any additional representa- tlon in the city council. In speaking of mis matter a mcraticr of tho council said , that South Omaha should havo more wards and ho cited Council Hluffs as nn example. 1 Council Bluffs has nix wards, with a j smaller population than South Omaha. It I was suggested by this councilman that the i'i .. --.I 1... .ii,.i.i.i 1 1, .t. . I Irst ward be .HMded and also the hucond , want, it tnts is clone thero will bo six wards, which, In somo circles. Is not con- sldered anv too lmmv for -i eltv nf thu ' irifi .. , . . . I slzo. This matter Is to bo considered by thu council within a short time, but be fore doing anything the rouncllmen seem to want to talk with their constituents and thus see what the people want. lliniil for frile. I Mention was mado a few duys ago of the an offense ami that they ffered no Induce fact that the 170 000 In funding bonds had j ipSUSXVL MiZi - " i" v mium or iuu. tuo iinuncc cotnmiltcu ot thu council having negotiated tho sale. Yes terday Mr. Morlarty called on Mayor Kelly and tho members of tho finance commlttcu and ro(uested to bo released from tho agreement which had been entered Into. He said there wus a rumor ou the streets to tho effect that thu bonds could bo sold for a much higher premium than ho of fered and If such wns tho cuse ho did not desire to stand in the wuy of the city se curing additional funds. It was virtually agreed to release Mr. Morlarty and now tho bonds will bu sold to the highest bidder. These bonds are to be latued for tho pur poso of refunding certain district improve ment bonds. They run for tou years with tho usual live-year clause nnd draw 6 per cent Interest. On account of the fact that the bonds may be redeemed at tho end of Hvo years, buyers are not particularly anxious to secure them. Ono representa tive of eastern bond buyers offered moro money for tho bonds afler Morlarty had been given tbe option, but he bid with tho understanding that thu bonds wore gen eral Indebtedness bonds and wero to run ten years. It has been agreed by the mayor and council that those bonds shall bo auctioned off In tho council chamber next Monday night. 'Water Company ImnrnveiuriitN. Tho Omaha Water company Is making preparations to lower ttn mains ou ull streets where the tirade has recently been established. This work will bo prosecuted as long as tho good weather lasts nnd It Is expected that tho mains In question will bo lowered before tho ground freezes. In connection with tho plueing of additional tire hydrants nnd tho extension of water mains, Superintendent Collins said last night thtit this work, which has been or dered by tho council, would bo commenced as soon as tho plpo arrived. Thero has been some delay in tho delivery of tho pipe on account of tho rush of orders ut thu foundry, but lie expects that tho malm, ordored will bo laid boforo winter sots in. Moipltnl llntlnns. Election matters detracted u, grett deal from tho Interest ut first shown In tin salo of lapel buttons for thi South Ornt'n hos pital fund.
