RULES TO GOVERN STATE INSTITUTIONS

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. No action has been taken
by the board with reference to tho report.

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

1 acre is going 10 Ic 1 refo.-m in the
method ot repairing sldalks In South
Omaha. This v. as decided upen at tbtf
meeting of tbe city council last night. No
ttce was served upon the council that Wil
liam Hlckson desired J1.004 from the, ex
chequer of the municipality for damages
to his perion, nhlch he alleges he re
ceived on October 31 by reason ot a de
fective sidewalk at Thirty-first and Q
streets. 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. Of ccurso fourth street
where the cost exceeds 11 the expense will
he charred im m fh r,mm,-iv ,vnP
bo charged up to the properly owner.
City Attorney Lambert sent In a num
ber of recommendations. He also tiled a
report ot the status of cases now pending.
Mr. Lambert wants a man to secure evi
dence for him in alt cases against the
city and this was arranged for.
A petition from residents of the Third
and Fourth wards was read complaining
about the smoke from some ot tbe pack
ing plants and it was requested that the
city otSctals request the packers to use
smoke consumers.
At tho suggestion of Fltlo the $70,600
funding bonds will bo auctioned off next
Monday night.
J. K. Riley was awarded the contract
for thu sewer In district 109, his bid being
13,600.
.More I'rccliiiMn Needed.
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.

In connection with tho plueing of additional

remains were shockingly mutilated.
Later the diggers In the ruins came
across another body. This proved to bo
that of Henjamln Moorchouse. tho missing

With hlra, in all probability, died all pos

was Moorehouse who had chargo of the

was a list of all the explosives stored In
the building. No trace of this book can
bo found.
Moorehouse lived at Montctatr. N, J
Flro department ctll-lals insisted alt along
that the clerk had simply disappeared for

would be found In the ruins Tho official
opinion was based on the fact that a man
who pretended to know Moorehouse said
he had seen the clerk In the street after
