An Information charging Ed and Richard

WANT STREET KEPT CLEAR
Property Owners on Xorth Mnln
Tlioronnhfnrr fllijert to K.i
prexKinou. Proporty owners on North Main street
will not consent to having that thorough
fare used as a standing placo for tho
wagons and teams of licensed expressmen
and common carriers without a vigorous
protest and a possible appeal to tho courts.
The action of the city council In accepting
the recommendation of tho special com
mittee Instructing the city solicitor to draft
an ordlnnnce giving tho expressmen tho
rlsht to stand their wagons while waiting
for hire on this street Is much criticised
hy the owners nnd occupants'of the build
ings nnd houses on that thoroughfare, and
a strong protest will bo entered by them
against tho passage of the ordinance. In
the event of tho city council Ignoring tho
protest and passing the ordinance, several
of tho Interested property owners threaten
to take tho matter Into tho courts.
Section 2!i of tho old ordlnnnco govornlng1
common carriers provides "thnt It shall ho
unlawful for nny owner or person In charge
or control of any llccnsel common carrier's
vehicle, while waiting for employment In
any public street of tho city along or In
front of nny lot or building without the
consent of the owners or co-occupants of
such promises and the city marshal being
first obtained." The now ordinance will of
a necessity eliminate this section In tho
old ordinance, but the proporty owners on
North Main street Insist that ordinance or
no ordinance they have tho right to refuse
to permit wagons and' teams to stand the
whole day In front of their premises.
Thero Is considerable traffic on North
Main street, which has been recently pave1,
nnd tho Interested property owners claim
that tho standing of a largo number of
big wagons and teams on both sides of the
stroct would naturally Interfere with this
traffic. They nlso say that street would
necessarily become covered with filth of all
kinds by the standing of so many horses
on It dally and that from a sanitary stand
point It would become a menace to tho
people living ton tho street. Then again
they object on tho grounds that tho men
In chnrgo of the wagons would naturally
loaf on the sidewalks while waiting for
a Job and this would prove not ono of tho
least nuisances in connection with the mat
ter. It Is contended by the persons objecting
to tho selection of North Main street that
the proper placo for the expressmen to
stand their wagons would bo the hay mar
ket, back of tho city building, on Bryant
street, whore they would not Interfere with
anyone. Tho expressmen, they contend,
could matntnln a telephone which could be
placed In the office of the welghmaster, and
the cost of such service would be n small
mnttcr when divided among so mnny. The
fact that the common carriers pay a li
cense and Insist In return that the city
should provide them with a standing place,
It Is contended, does not Justify the city
council In ordering that thoy be permitted
to Btand their wagons on a publlo thor
oughfare for tho Improving of which the
abutting proporty owners hnvo had to pay.
Tho property owners on North Main street
aro much exercised over the matter and If
the city persists In giving tho common car
riers permission to stnnd their teams and
wagons there, it will undoubtedly have
nnother lawsuit on Its hands.

Kiiii'rurnclca.
As a result of the firo Wednesday night
at the old plant of the electric light com
pany at Eleventh street and Third nvenue,
tho city council yesterday afternoon noti
fied tho Citizens Gns and Klectrlc company
that it would be required to keep a man
at night ready to cut wires when needed
in tho tvent o.' a nrc. It also Instructed the
compnny to place a flrealarm gong In Its
substation to that the man on duty could
respond at once when an alarm of flro would
be turned In.
Tho flro at tho old electric light plant
was caused by tho wind blowing live wires
down on the building, which nlsa came 'n
contact with somo of tho old wires' which
had yet been removed. When the tlremcn
arrived, thero was no one to cut tho wires
nnd Chief Tcmplcton refused to allow any
of tho men near tho building. It was somo
time before nn employe of tho electric
light company could be secured and the
wires cut. The damage to the building,
however, was nominal. Chief Templeton
made a report to the council as the falluro
of the electrlct light company to have a
mnn on dutr nt night might prove disas
trous another time, it was said that the
electric light company hod been for some
time seeklnK a competent' man to place In
chargo at night, but had been unable to so
cure one.
Tho police report that about two. thirds
of the arc lights were out Wednesday night.
It Is said that the supply wire from Omaha
had become grounded' and consequently the
city was In comparative darknets, Th
commercial lighting has been unsatlsfartnrr
aud complaints have been many. The com
pany yesterday Installed a "booster" at the
substation, the purpose of which Is to keep
the volthgc for the Incandescent lights uni
form after the circuits for the city lighting
have been turned on. The "boosW," It is
claimed, will prevent the lighting circuits
draining the current from the commercial
circuits,

Judge Macy in the district court yesterday
to the exclusion of other business. The
caso of Mrs. Mamie Brandt against K. J.

Jaques was granted a dlvorco from Charles
H. Jaques. In the divorce caso of W. A.
Peterson against Maggie M. Peterson ad
ditional evidence was Introduced on behalf
of tho husband, but Judge Mncy refused
to alter his ruling, given a year ago, when
he dismissed both tho petition of the hus
band and tho cross-potltlon of the wife, as
evidence showed that both had misbehaved.
The caso had been reinstated on tho ap
plication of the husband on the grounds of
nowly discovered evidence.

court yesterday to have a Judgment ob
tained by Krnnk Peterson In Justice Fcr

Cull.
NEWTON, la.. Sept. 12. (Special.) Dr.
Benjamin M. Kallor, ono of the oldest prac
ticing physicians' of this city, was brutally
murdered last night at midnight while re
turning from a professional call at William
Graham's, on Race street. Dr. Kallor was
last evening visiting pleasantly with his
daughter, Mrs. Orandstnff, who with her
children enmo a short time ago from Bur
lington for a visit nt home.
About 11 o'clock a call came to go to a
houso near the Rock Island depot, and It
being but a fow blocks distant the doctor
walked to the placo of his visit, Ho had
completed his call nnd had Just left the
housu when In passing tho Jasper lumber
yard, a dark and lonely plnce at the corner
of Rnco and North streets, it Is Btippcsed
ho was nttacked by thugs und sandbagged,
with robbery as the motive.
The doctor was discovered In on uncon
scious condition by a passerby about nn
hour after the assault nnd carried Into D.
M. Wert's house. It was seen thnt the doc
tor had been Btruck about the head nnd over
tho eyes, tho skull being fractured. His
clothing was badly torn and his watch gone.
One pocket of the trousers was torn out.
Ho wbb unconscious and could tell nothing
of tho nssault. Ho was removed to his
home, where he died at .1 o'clock this morn
ing In torrlble ngony, there being a hole In
the head that seemed to enuje tcrrlblo
pain.
Drs. Engle. Smead and Robb, who wcro
called, nre of the opinion thnt tho doctor
was struck with a club which, perhaps,
had a nail In It. The police as yet have no
clue, but several colored men have been ar
rested as supects. Dr. Kallor was 76 years
of ase and highly respected, having prac
ticed hero for many years.

Tivo Hunter Mint,
(From a Staff Correspondent )
DES MOINES. Sept. 12. (Special.) The
twenty-third biennial report ot the superlu
tendent of the Iowa School for tho Deaf at
Council Bluffs was filed with the States
Board of Control this morning. "The past
two years," says Superintendent Rothert,
"have witnessed no retrograde movement
In this educational Institution ot our state
Our pupils have advanced satisfactorily,
have been happy And contented, our officers
and teachers havo labored faithfully, havo
been loyal and zealous, and peace nnd good
will havo reigned supreme at all times
within it walls." The health of pupils has
been good and In the two years no deaths
have occurred at the school. Approprla
Hons nre asked for, not for enlargement of
the buildings, but for repairs and ucces
snry Improvements. The dormatories, din
Ing room, chapel. Industrial schools and
school house are declared to bo of such am
pie dimensions an to properly care for and
educate all the deaf children of tho state
who for many years to come may apply for
ndmlsslon. Some efforts havo recently been
made to start a movement for another
school, and in reference to this Superln
tendent Rothert nays:
"Efforts havo been made to bring to the
notice of all citizens of Iowa the existence
of this school and the Importance of the
advantages It extends to all deaf children,
anu rrom responses received a certainty
exists mat all who aro willing are enrolled
and none aro neglected. Until the enact
mcnt of a compulsory lnw for the deaf no
deaf child will bo debarred from an educa
tion If Its parents are willing, or so decide.
by reason of want of room In or cost of
transportation to tho Iowa School for Deaf
as it now exists or Is located
"The revenuo of the Iowa School for the
Dcnf as now provided hy statute is barely
suiucicnt to support and maintain the school
In Its present acceptable nnd beneficent
condition, leaving no margin for recogniz
ing progressive Improvements or permitting
It to move forward and upward to higher
plains of completeness nnd usefulness. Tho
necessity for recognizing tho services of
officers nnd teachers more liberally has
become apparent. Tho salaries paid aro be-
iow mo average. Tho reduction In the sal
nry fund from $21,000 to $18,000 and tho
wunurawai of the support fund during va
cation, amounting to possibly $1,000, has
naturally decreased tho revenue nf th
school. Superintendent Rothert recommends
