The city council last evening disposed of
a mass of routine business. The session
waa marked by constant humorous sallies
between the members of the council, bring
ing out hearty laughs from the many spec
tators who were present.
The feature of the meeting waa an ordi
nance Introduced by President of the Coun
cil W. H. Queenan, requiring the atreet
car company to have atreet cars stopped
when the motorman leaves his place of
duty. The reason for the introduction of
the ordinance la the accidental death of
John R. Wilson Sunday night by being run
over by a street car on Missouri avenue
while the motorman was engaged In col
lecting fares. It the ordinance passes.
hereafter the car will be stopped when the
motorman starts In doing this work.
A petition wss filed asking for tha open
ing of Jefferson or Madison atreet acroas

John Flynn filed a communication to the
effect that the water company had placed
a water hydrant near Twenty-third and H
streets that Is dangerous to pasaersby, and
asked that it be removed.
Anna Smith filed a communication asking
for the reduction of taxea on her property.
It is a voluminous affair and City Clerk
Bhrlgley took three decisive rests during
Its rending. It was referred to the finance
committee.
The Omaha Cooperage company asked
that ft be allowed to repnlr Its property re
cently damaged by fire without the Inter
ference of any official and without a build
ing permit to do the work. This communi
cation was also referred.
Sanitary Inspector Frank E. Jones called
the attention of the council to the pools of
water about the city and asked for instruc
tions, which he did not get.
City Engineer Beal estimated the cost of
several grading contracts and warrants
were drawn ' for the amounts. The ordi
nance providing for the grading of C atreet
recently passed was repealed on account of
Irregularities In the petition calling for the
improvement. '
For the grading of the alley between R
and C streets and Twenty-fourth and
Twenty-third streets, Daniel flaiinon se
cured the contract, his bid being lower
than that of Cash Brothers. ' These two
contractors later bid par on about W.OOO
worth of grading bonds, and the obligations
were divided between them.
The following crosswalks will be laid:
North side of R street, across Twenty
ninth street; alley between Twenty-third
and Twenty-fourth streets, south aide of F
street; K and Twenty-second streets; north
side of ' L street on Forty-second street;

The most amusing event of the evening
waa the tilt between different members of
ths council over the drafting of an ordl
nance requiring the packing houses to raise
the height of their smokestacks. O'Con'
ner introduced ths motion, and the, council
was divided on It. Finally Welch hit upon
the happy Idea of referring it to the build
ing and grounds committee, which was
done, thus averting serious trouble, which
at the time seemed Imminent.
Neighbors Fall to Agree.
L. C. Thompson appeared ln the police
court yesterday and asked that a warrant
be Issued for .the arrest of James Anderson.
According to the story of Thompson, An
derson and his son assaulted him, knock
ing him over with a neck-yoke and alter
he was down took hla pocket book and con
tents and a double act of harnesa from'
him. The Andersons soon arrived on the
acene, without the aid of a warrant, and
asked for a oomplalnt against Thompson,
charging him with assault and battery and
disturbance of the peace. Both of the
complaints Were Issued and all of the par
ties gave bonds for their appearance this
afternoon. Tbey have resided ln the tame
house and are aald to have been close
friends. Yesterday afternoon Anderson

It is said that under the Instructions of

and completed plans for a aubway to be
built under the tracks at the Exchange

it Is generally thought that the work will
be done. There Is said to be soma opposi

OBSTACLES MAY DISAPPEAR
Barriers to Submission of Proposition
by Gas Company Probably
M'Hl Be Removed. f
Difficulties which the Omaha Gas com

making a proposition for street lighting to
the city will be removed in a few days,
according to City Attorney Wright.
"I expect that the preaent restraining
order will be dissolved by Judge Dickinson
this week," aald Mr. Wright. "Attorneys
for Ernest Stuht, who brought suit to pre
vent the city council from, taking steps to
wards entering Into a contract with ths
gas company, have signed a stipulation
agreeing to modify the terms of the order
so that they will not prevent a proposition
being made. This stipulation will be
presented to Judge Dickinson Wednesday
and he will be asked to amend the injunc
tion accordingly. This will leave the way
open to the gas company.
"However, I expect to have arrange

lifted, thus obviating complications of any

CITY WILL REPAIRS TREETS
Arranges to Do Work by Dar Labor De
pita the Court Injunction,
EMPLOYS GRANT AND HIS PAYING PLANT
Mayor, Majority ttt Pablle Works
Board and Seven Coanetlmea
Vnvor the Plan, While Wright
ttoesttoas Legality.
Mayor Moores, the board of public works
and seven members of the council made ar
rangements yesterday afternoon to repair
the asphalt streets. They arranged with
John Grant of the Nebraska Bltullthlc com
pany to employ him as superintendent of
the Job at $100 and such expert labor as was
necessary at the current price and to buy
alt materials through Mr. Grant, who will
present the bills to the council The use
of the Grant paving plant Is to be paid for
under arrangements to be made later, i
Chairman Rosewater waa the only official
who objected to the proceeding. Mayor
Moores and ths councilman were enthusi
astically In favor of going ahead and re
pairing the streets, believing that auoh ac
tion will meet with the approval of the
people, even though slightly out of order
from a legal standpoint.
City Attorney Wright, who waa present,
aald the law waa clear that repairing to
paved streets can be done only by con
tract; further that all material has to be (
purchased In this way. Aa long as no of
ficial paper la designated, he did not see
how any contract could be made that would
be upheld by the courts
He urged the board and council to wait
until It was seen whether or not Mr. Grant
filed the $.000 bond demanded ln the Injunc
tion case by Thursday noon, when Judge
Day' said he would dissolve the Injunction
if it was not filed.
Higher by Day Labor.
He said further that invhla opinion the
cost of repairs would be Increased fifty per
cent by day labor, and In case the order Is
dissolved the Barber Asphalt company will
have a claim for damages.
Contractor Grant appeared at thle time
and ln answer to questions said he Intend
ed to file the bond and would file It. Comp
troller Lobeck and Building Inspector
Wlthnell, majority members of the board ot
publlo works, then adopted a resolution
authorizing arrangements with a contractor
or contractors to do the repairs by day
labor and to purchase the necessary materi
als. Chairman Rosewater said he would re
fuse to violate the law.
. Mayor Moores said the time had come
for decisive measures and that he believed
the people would uphold almost any steps
that would be taken to overcome "the curse
of government by Injunction."
The board held a second meeting In the
afternoon to approve a list of employees
necessary for the asphalt work. In order to
submit It to the council for approval last
night. Tha mayor announced his Intention
of signing It Immediately and Mr. Grant
said he would have hla men at work thla
morning.
NEW JABBER IN ACTION
Ln Toaca Stick nprrsedes the Hat
pin as a Weapon of Femlalae
Defense.
The overworked hatpin, for year's worn
an'a chief weapon of . defense, Is on ' the
high road to oblivion. Innocuous desuetude
stafes It In the faoe. The star of a new
Instrument ot retaliation for . outraged
beauty is ln the ascendant, and soon the
once ever-handy hatpin will be forgotten,
except as a contrivance for holding wom
an's headgear In place.
The new weapon Is the "La Toaca stick,'
or, as it Is known In New York, the "Alice
Roosevelt cane." It resembles a bandmas
ter'a baton ln sise and shape, and It Is ex
ceedingly popular with Chicago women.
That It Is serviceable as well as orna
mental was discovered last night by Mrs.
Charles P. Elliott, 3100 Groveland avenue,
Chicago, when she waa attacked by a
roughly dressed man at Thirty-first street
and Cottage Grove avenue.
Give me your purse," demanded the
stranger, reaching out his hand and ap
parently expecting ready compliance.
I shall do no such thing," said Mrs.
Elliott, calmly.
Give ma your purse, or I'll wring your
pretty neck."
The words came sharply, but ths answer
waa aharper still. Mrs. Elliott carried one
of the new canes, and she brought It into
play with surprising agility. Bhe did not
strike, oh. no; she jabbed. . Bhe used the
cane as a rapier and the end was pointed
with a steel cap or ferrule.
The man saw the point promptly, or
rather felt It first In the stomach and then
In ths faoe. Jabl Jabl Jab! A howl ot
rage and pain broke the stillness of tha
night, and ths man fled. When It was all
over Mrs. Elliott sat down on the curb
stone and cried.
He said he'd wring m-my neck," aha
aobbed.
The young woman, who la the' wife of
the manager of tha Thirty-first - Street
theater, had been at the home of her sister,
Mrs. Carl Striffler, at Thirty-eighth' Btree
and Lake avenue. Mr. Striffler is 111, and
after aiding her Bister all she could Mrs.
Elliott started for home. Then came the
encounter.
"I shall not go anywhere without my
walking stick after this," ahs declared
when she waa once more safe at her own
fireside. Chicago Inter Ocean.

ELLSWORTH HELD FOR DEED
Charged by Coroner's Jnry with Fatal
Stabbing of David Houser.
ENGLISH WILL FILE THE COMPLAINT
"May Barns" Hays Honser Told Her
no Woald Make- Troable If
She Did Not Go
vrlth Him.
The Jury In the coroner's Inquest over the
remains of David Houser brought In a
verdict Monday afternoon, finding Houser
"came to his death from the effects of a
knife cut and that the knife was ln the
hands of Charles Ellsworth when the fstal
blow was struck."
The county attorney will now file com
plaint against Ellsworth charging him with
the commission of the deed, Houser was
stabbed Sunday night while returning from
a danoe at Hill's road house.
The Inquest began at 9:30 o'olock In the
office of Coroner Brallay. The following
Jury was . summoned: Mesrs. T. 8.
Crocker, John Fltigerald. William White,
Murrtll Hyland and Wood.
County Attorney English appeared for
the state and conducted the examination
of witnesses. The father and the attorney
of the accused also were present. John
Fosdick. the young men who waa with I
Houser, the deceased, at the road house
and at th spot where he waa stabbed, w?.s
ths first witness examined. He gave liU
residence as S04 North Twentieth street,
Bouth Omaha. Fosdick testified to sub
stantially the etory aa already publlshel.
But few new circumstances were brought
out. He said:
Fosdick Tells the Story,
"Houser and I, with the La Blanche
woman, went to the Hill road house about
f:M Sunday evening. There was a Slight
estrangement between Houser and Ills-
worth over May Burns and hard foellngs
grew out of this during the evening. Houser
went to the road house sore at both Ells
worth and the woman. When we left the
Hill place shortly before midnight we had
proceeded about a tnlle on our way home
when Houser became determined to go back
and fight It out He declared he waa a
fighting man and instated on getting but of
the buggy and going back down the road.
I followed ln the rig. When I came in eight
of Houser and Ellsworth, Houser had hold
of the bridle of the horse of Ellsworth's
rig. Before I got Out of the buggy they
had scuffled and fallen In the weeds.
Houser called to me: 'John, John, I'm cut!'
I tried to pull Ellsworth off Houser. He
struck at me with the knife. (Here witness
showed rents In his coat whloh, he alleges,
were made by the knife ln Ellsworth's
hands.)
"Houser asked me to take him to town,
and I hurried aa fast as possible to Dr.
Hobbs' office, on Sherman avenue. Houser
died aa soon aa we got htm to the doctor's
office."
Ttatnre of the Wound.
Dr. Hobbs and Dr. Lavender, who held
an autopsy over the body of the deceased
Monday morning, testified aa to tha nature
of the wound and the Instrument which
might make It. In their opinion death
waa caused by hemorrhage from aeverlng
the axllllary artery, the main artery to the
arm. Wound waa on the left side near
the shoulder and penetrated to a depth of
four Inches; It was perhaps three inches
long. Could have been made with a large
pocket knife.
May Burns, whose real name she Informed
the coroner Is Alice Edlnborough, the
"woman In' the case," aa next called.
Bhe eald that Houser had tried td start
trouble at the road house. Had aaked her,
while they were dancing together, If she
was going home with him. It not he was
going to start a fight. Her version of the
fight, when Houser received the mortal
wound from Ellsworth, threw no new
light In that - direction. In fact ahe
pretended to know nothing about it at all,
and th county attorney waa unable to
elicit any Information from har.
County Attorney English Bays this morn
ing he will file a complaint against Charles
Ellsworth, found guilty by the coroner's
Jury of having fatally stabbed David Hou
ser last Sunday night. Captain Haxe says
he will hold all witnesses who appeared at
the inquisition until after such complaint
Is filed
Numerous acquaintances of the accused
man are evincing a great Interest In hli
case and he had several callers at the sta
tion yesterday afternoon. One woman, who
lives in ths house adjoining the Ellsworth
home In Council Bluffs, brought Ellsworth
a bag of fruit and cake. Bhe wept bitterly
when he came out Into the hallway under
guard. "It's too bad," she said, "he was a
good boy snd good to his mother. I hops
he will get out all right."
The prisoner appears to be little per
turbed. He meets hla friends ln a matter
of fact way.
The only new development In the Houser
murder case' yesterday was ths finding of
the bloody coat which the dead man wore
when stabbed, In the weeds near the Sher
man avenue bridge by Peter Nelson, 111
Ames avenue. How the coat came to be
there no one seems to know. Ths knife
with which the deed was committed has
not been located.
