Robbers held up and robbed the grocery
tore of Samuel Graves, 1822 High street,
and the meat market of J. A. Kirk at the
corner of High street and Graham avenue,
about t o'clock last night. The Kirk rob
bery occurred fifteen minutes after the
holdup at Graves' place. It Is thought that
the robbers are a gang of tramps, as they
made, for the railroad yards.
At Graves' store two men entered while
one remained on guard outside. The fel
lows were both armed with revolvers and
wore slouch hats drawn down over their
eyes, but no further dlag-ulse. Graves and
two customers who were In the store were
lined up against the wall while one of the
robbers went through their pockets and
the other stood with his revolver at tholr
heads. From Graves they secured $S In
cash, and from George W. Catterlln, a
railroad man, a gold watch and chain.
After cautioning the three men to stay
quiet, the two robbers backed to the door,
joined their companion on guard and ran
towards the Milwaukee yards, where they
were soon lost sight of.
At the Kirk meat market two men stayed
outside while the third entered the shop
and ordered 16 cents worth of round steak.
Mrs. Kirk was In the shop alone and when
she turned to go to the Icebox for the meat
the fellow presented his revolver and told
her she need not bother atftut getting the
meat. Keeping the gun pointed at the
frightened woman, the robber made his
way back o the counter to the till, which
he opened and emptied, securing about 14
In small change. While the robbers at
the two places were evidently different per
sons, the police believe they belonged to
the same gang of tramps, and after the
holdups reunited in the railroad yards.

COMPROMISE ON THE DITCHES
Auditors Finally Decide to Reject All
Bids on Joint Connty
Contract,
A compromise settlement of the contro
versy over the awarding of the contracts
for the construction of the Harrison
Pottawattamie county ditches was ef
fected yesterday between the auditor and
I the boards of supervisors of the two coun
ties. Auditors Innes and Huff were finally
persuaded to reject all bids and the super
visors of both counties consented to ex
tend the time for the completion of the
ditches until July 1, 1905. Auditors Innes
and Huff will readvertlse for bids, and it
will be at least thirty days before the new
bid can be opened and the contract
awarded. j.. v'
If the auditors had refused to reject the
bids the supervisors of both counties would
have stood pat and declined to extend the
time for the completion of the work and,
this being the case, it was extremely doubt
ful if the contracts 4 so awarded by the
auditors would have had any legal force.
County Attorney Klllpack notified Auditor
Innes that for him to persist in awarding
the contracts under different terms for
completion of the work than that provided
for by resolution of the boards of super
visors of both counties would precipitate
litigation which might delay the work for
a year, or even longer.
It was also stated that Some of th
sureties on Auditor Innes' official bond
had notified him that they would withdraw
from the bond if he peristed In making
what they considered would be. an Illegal
contract.
The rejection of the bids for the Harrison
Pottawattamie county ditches In no man
ner affects th Pigeon creek ditch contract,
which was awarded to P. B. Wlckham.
In his bid Wlckham offered to complete
the work by July 1, 1904, the time specified
by the board of supervisors when establish
ing the drainage district..
The board of supervisors completed Its
business for the August session yesterday
afternoon and adjourned to the regular
meeting In September.
The chairman of the board was authorised
to enter. Into the contract with Wlokham
brothers' for the construction of the poor
farm buildings, and the bond of Wlckham
Brothers, In th sum of 110,000 for the faith
ful fulfillment of th contract was ap
proved. By the terms of the contract
the plastering of the buildings must be
completed by November 16 of this year and
both buildings completed and ready for
occupaney by February 15 of next year.
Supervisor Brandes was selected to se
cure prices on machinery for the laundry
t the poor farm and to report at the Sep
tember meeting.
The bUl of Wlckham Se Co. for laying
the cement walk around the courthouse,
amounting to I3S0.E7, was allowed.
PEDDLER HELD FOR ASSAULT
Prisoner Is Haetled Ont of Tows) of
ft .tola for Pear of Mob
Violence.
Bide Elike, an Arabian peddler charged
with committing a criminal assault upon
the 1-year-old daughter of Henry Brlgger
man, a farmer living near Nsola, last Frl
day morning, was lodged In the county jail
In this city last evening.
Elike was arrested late Tuesday evening
a few miles from Little Sioux by City Mar
shal Corbett, who had been on his trail
sine Monday. Elike was taken before
Justice Clarke at Neola yesterday and on
the advice of his attorney waived exam
nation and was bound over to the grand
jury in the sum of 12.000. Feeling ran rather
high at Neola when It was learned that the
alleged assailant of the child was In town
and It was deemed advisable by the author'
Itlea to get the man out of the place as
quickly as possible. It was feared that the
man might be th victim of mob violence
If not got out of town. He was placed In
a buggy and drive rapidly by Marshal
Corbett to Vnderwood, wher th Rock
Island train to Council Bluffs was caught
Elike Is said to have called at the Brig.

was not seriously Injured.
' F.llke can speak but a few words of En
glish and he appeared to be greatly fright
ened when brought to the county Jail and
kept close to the side of Marshal Corbett.
On his arrest he notified friends In Omaha
and they retained John Llndt as his attor
ney. When arrested Elike had certificates
of deposit on Omaha and Kansas City
banks amounting to tl.900 and over $1(0 In
cash on his person. He has been traveling
around the country in a buggy peddling,
lie la said to be a member of the Arabian
colony In Omaha.
More Money for Parks.
The Board of Park Commissioners has de
cided that It will need additional funds next
year and has fixed the amount of the levy
for 1903 for park purposes at 2Vi mill. Here
tofore the levy has not exceeded 2 mills.
The board antlalpates considerable expense
In connection with the litigation over Big
Lake and gives other reasons for Increasing
the levy. The park board, being elective
and not appointive, like the library board,
Is empowered to fix Its own levy without
consulting the city council, as the library
board la compelled to do. A special act
of the Iowa legislature empowered park
boards to levy up to 4 mills for three years
beginning In 1900. This, however, Is the
first year the Council Bluffs park com
missioners have availed themselves of the
privilege to Increase the levy above 2 mills.
Settle for Fire Karaite.
At the meeting of the Board of Educa
tion yesterday afternoon the committee on
buildings and grounds was Instructed to
settle the bill of J. C. Blxby & Son for the
flre-escapes on the High and Bloomer
school buildings, less 10 per cent deduc
tion. Director Gorman at the time the bill,
amounting to tuSO, was presented, con
tended that cheaper fire-escapes had been
erected than the contract called for. On
the other hand, Mr. Blxby stated that he
had paid more for the escapee than he
would had he been able to secure the es
capes originally ordered.
Contractor Wlckham was instructed to
put In cement floors In the Pierce Street
school addition.

CONTEST OVER TELEGRAPH TAXATION
Horse Entries for the Cotnlna; State
Fair the Larsest for Many Tears,
with Alt Leading Breeders
Represented.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Aug. .-8peciai.) The
Iowa crops are not In as good condition as
they were at this time last year. Director
Sage of the Iowa weather and crop service
today gave out a statement summarising
the "reports of the correspondents In coun
ties and townships for the first of August.
These reports make the following estimates
of the condition of the leading Iowa crops
August I: Spring wheat, 82 per cent; corn,
73; oats, 77; millet, 96; flax, 84; buck
wheat, 89; pastures, 104; sorghum, 84; po
tatoes, 80; apples, S6; grapes, 80. At the
corresponding date last year the averages
estimated were as follows: Spring wheat,
84; corn, 93; oats, 8S; flax, 91; potatoes, 107;
apples, 66. The estimate shows that pas
tures are about the only thing In Iowa
this year that are better than usual.
Controversy Over Taxation.
For several years there has been a con
troversy between the Burlington railroad
and the Western Union Telegraph company
over the assessment of certain telegraph
lines along the Burlington road In Iowa.
The railroad company claimed that the
value of this was included In its other
property and the telegraph company de
clined to assume responsibility for the
taxes on the lines. Last year for the first
time the property was assessed to both the
railroad company and the telegraph com
pany. This year the state executive coun
cil assessed It to the telegraph company
alone. Now the company is making ob
jection to having this linn taxed up against
It and Is considering the advisability of
going Into court to decide the matter. The
line Is In fact owned by the railroad com
pany and la operated by the telegraph
company.
Eismlnlng for Physicians.
The State Board of. Medical Examiners
held a session here today and considered

matter of general comment In the street
for some weeks. No statement regarding
Its affairs was obtainable today.
Assignee Makes Statement.
Mr. Cromwell, counsel for the assignee
of Sharp A Bryan, mad th following
statement:
The firm made the eeneral assignment
for the purpose of Insuring equality among
Its creditors without preference. The
cause Is directly attributed to the sudden
and extreme shrinkage In the market value
of the securities of the firm.
The liabilities, mostly securea. are aoout
$6,000,000. The value of assets, oomprlslng
BlmoHt exclusively stock exchange securi
ties to the amount of several million dol
lars, Is dependent on market conditions.
Most of the creditors recognizing that
Present conditions are short lived, are very
airly and wisely withholding their securi
ties from sale.
An official statement was made to the
effect that the firm had no open contracts
In the market and that at prevailing prices
there was still a fair margin on their loans.
It was added that If prices do not decline
further the firm would be able to liquidate
Its assets on a satisfactory basis.
Sharp 4k Bryan were prominent In opera
tions on the curb. They were specialists
there In American Bridge, Northwestern
securities and Seaboard shares. The firm
offered the large blocks of Seaboard shares
for scle on the curb yesterday.
. The greater part of Sharp A Bryan's
obligations on the exchange were liquidated
yesterday and several hanks and trust com
panies threw out their loans. In fact, th
greater part of yesterday's , liquidation on
the exchange was for Sharp A Bryan's ac
count.
Fears -Ass Confirmed.

.The announcement of the suspension of
Sharp A Bryan confirmed the fears which
have been current In stock market circles
for several days. It was accepted as ex
plaining the break In some of the special
ties In which the 'failed firm had been In
terested. Their 'efforts to realize on these repre
sented the struggle to extricate themselves
and the .ack o( a market, showed by the
vlolen "ireaks which resulted, left them no
recourse but to juspend.
The announcement of the second failure
that of Hurlbutt Hatch A Co. was fol
lowed by a rally, bu'.;t did not hold. The
feature of the afternoon was the heavy
liquidation in Missouri Pacific, which car
ried it down nearly B points. The selling
was supposed to be for the account of on
of the suspended firms.

LONDON, Aug. 8. -War was declared to
day between the home fleet, under the com
mand of Admiral Wilson, and the Mediter
ranean fleet, commanded by Admiral Dom
vllle. The annual British maneuvers thus
oommenced are regarded as the most Inter

Altogether twenty-six battleships and
forty-three cruisers will be entered In a
contest for tho command of the sea be

The opposing fleets are represented by the
letters B and X, the former being the home
fleet, which Is divided Into two squadrons,
one at Berhaven, Ireland, commanded by
Admiral Wilson, and the other at Maderla,
under Lord Charles Beresford.
The problem ta the home fleet Is to effect
a Junction of forces at sea. while on Ad
miral Domvllle, in command of the X fleet,
concentrated at Lagos, Portugal, Is Im
posed the task of finding Admiral Wilson's

At midnight that portion of the New Eng

weather to slip past the defending fleet and
establish himself In any harbor.
The attacking fleet has been at sea for
about three days and will have until Satur
day to win the game planned by the naval
experts In Washington by occupying any
of the harbors In this portion of the coast
for five hours without being discovered.
