cil Bluffs, Tabor St Southern Electric Rail

sent and authority.
The franchise Is for a term of twenty
five years.
When the ordinance was read by the
clerk, Alderman Casper took the floor and
stated that such a franchise should be
worth at least $10,000. He said he was will
ing to give that amount for such a fran
chise, and would be willing to borrow the
money to pay for It Beyond a few desul
tory remarks, brought out by Alderman
Casper's assertion, the ordinance went to
the committee of the whole without dis
cussion. Report on Broadway Psvlsg.
City Engineer Etnyre submitted the fol
lowing report In reference to the paving
of West Broadway:
In regard to the cost of paving Broadway
from Thirteenth street to the west line of
Ferry avenue, as aBked for by your honor
able body, I would say 1 have found the
old rook roadway proposed to be used for
a bottom or bane to be very uneven, and,
I believe, too high for the grade of the
street. But, assuming that this can be
used as a base the cost of paving a strip
sixteen feet wide with a cement All and
Uulesburg block, would be approximately
L430.0UO. To this must be added the cost of
a 2xi plank curbing and grading along the
edges of the new paving, about 18,500 more.
The cost with Des Moines brick will be
about J1.S00 less. T believe It will be Im
practicable to pave, this strip as was pro
posed, and if the council would examine
the conditions I think they would come to
the snme conclusion.
While Broadway ia essentially an Inter
state road, and most of the traffic at the
present time Is a through traffic between
the two cities, yet I think a pavement
should be so constructed as to benefit the
abutting property as much as possible.
The plan that strikes me most favorably
at the present time is to pave a fifteen-foot
strip along the present curb lines and throw
tne remaining twenty-rour reel in ine mia
dle of the street into a parking or lawn.
W. II. Seaman, In a communication offer
ing to purchase certain lots from the city,
suggested that Broadway west of Eigh
teenth street be reduced to thirty feet In
width. Mr. Seaman offered $780 for' four
teen lots owned by the city In the western
part of the city. '
This communication, with the report of
the city engineer, was placed on file after
the subject of improving Broadway had
been more or leas discussed by the alder
man and several members of the West End
Improvement club.
The petition of Interested property owners
that Avenue I In the western part of the
city be reduoed from eighty to sixty feet In
width was reported on adversely by Alder
man Lougee, chairman of the special com
inlttoe to which It had been referred.
The commendation of the' Judiciary com
mittee that the Specialty Manufacturing
company be granted a remission of special
taxes for 1902. amounting to 170. M, and the
regular city taxes for 1902 and 1901 was con
curred In.
Working; for State Marshal.
A special meeting of the Ministerial as
sociation was held yeaterdsy morning for
the purpose of giving Rev. A. F. Barnes, a
formes minister In the Upper Iowa Metho
dist conference an opportunity to explain
the purpose of the proposed state marshal
law and ask the co-operation of the asso
ciation In securing Its passage.
The proposed state marshal law la a
movement on the part of the prohibition
party to seure the enforcement of the state
(liquor laws to the very letter. It la proposed
: to have appointed through the enactment of
a law by the state legislature "state mir-
Ishala" in each district of Iowa, whose duty
are enforced the same as the United States
revenue officers and other federal officer
see that the government liquor laws are
obeyed.
As a result of the conference with Rev.
Barnes the association decided to Invite A.
C. Rankin to come here and address mass
meetings In support of the movement on
Sunday, December 20, and Monday, Decem
ber 21. The Sunday meeting, which will be
held In the afternoon, will. It Is expected,
be In the First Baptist church, while that
on Monday evening will be at the First
Christian church.
OPENS SALOON FIGHT AGAIN
W. C. Itterbaek Asks to Be Snbstl
tnted as Party Plaintiff In
Dormant Cases.
Indications are that the saloon flght in
this city, which originated over an attempt
to close the saloons owned by the Storx
Brewing company of Omaha, and which
was supposed to have been settled for all
time, has been reopened. In the district
court yesterday. In the suits brought by
Attorney Benjamin against six of the sa
loons owned by the Stors company, and
which, despite the settlement supposed to
have been reached between the warring
parties, still remained on the docket, pe
titions of Intervention were filed by Wesley
C. Utterbaok, with O. II. Gable as his at
torney. In his petition of Intervention TJtterback
sets forth that he Is perfectly willing to
adopt the original petitions filed In the
several suits, and asks to be substituted as
party plaintiff in each of the six cases.
The cases In which Utterback seeks to in
tervene art those against J. W. Plnnell,
John Brennan, Jens Hansen, M. O'Connor,
Frits Rapp and the Blue Ribbon saloon.
In each case Mrs. Maggie Buck, the owner
of the saloon buildings, and W. A. Wells,
the company's local agent, are named as
party defendants, as In the original suits.
Trial notices have been served in each
case.
When Attorney Benjamin brought suit
to enjoin, the operation of all saloons In
this city owned by the Storx company, ap
pearing himself as plaintiff. It waB sug
gested that he was acting In behalf of Ut
terback, who had a suit pending against
the company's agent. Wells, to recover the
amount he had paid Wells for beer sold
him while he, Utterback, was conducting
a saloon on Broadway. The suit against
Wells resulted In a verdict against Utter
back. Benjamin was Utterback's attorney
In the suit against Wells. The fact that
Utterback has secured the services of an
other attorney is taken to indicate that he
means to renew the fight against the Storx
company's saloons.
Few Attend Tax Sale.
The annual tax sale of delinquent prop
erty, held yesterday by County Treasurer
Arnd, brought out about fifteen bidders, of
whom eight were speculators and the re
mainder there foil the purpose ' of pro
tecting such holdings as which they were
Interested in. The bidding was brisk and
the competition to secure the choicest
pieces was of the keenest.
A evidence of the keen competition to
secure the desirable pieces on thirty-eight
acres In Garner township, one bidder, A.
C. Keeler, had the property knocked down
to him on his bid of an undivided thirty
one duo decllloneth fraction. 1 This is said
to be the smallest. fraction for .whloh any
one holding waa ever sold at a tax sale
in the history of Pottawattamie county.
To use the expression of County Treas
urer Arnd, the property offered for sale
was "out up badly," meaning that It sold
for small undivided fractions, the pur
chaser paying the taxes due on the entire
property.
A number of new faces were to be seen
at the tax sale, which was the smallest
In several years, nearly half of the origi
nally printed list having been redeemed
between the date of publication and today.
What was not sold constitutes undesirable
property In the bottoms, and an effort to
dispose of this will be made January 11,
to which time the sale was adjourned.
Horse and Boggy Stolen.
Early yesterday morning the police were
notified that a stray horse had been picked
up and placed In the Kiel barn. Investiga
tion showed that the animal belonged to
'V.' T. Petersen, of the firm of Grahl &
Petersen, and further, that a buggy was
missing from the Petersen barn. Continu
ing their investigation, the police discov
ered that a horse and harness had been
stolen from the bam of Mrs. T. Neunas,
close by.
It is supposed by the police that the thief
Intended to steal Petersen's horse and
buggy, but that the horse made its escape
while being harnessed, as a set of harness
belonging to Petersen was found lying
on the barn floor. Falling to harness up
Petersen's horse, the thief is supposed to
have gone across the alley to Mrs. Neunas'
barn, harnessed her horse, and then re
turned to Petersen's barn, where be hitched
the animal to Petersen's buggy and drove
off.
The theft Is thought to have been com
mitted about 4 o'clock In the morning, but
up to last night the police had secured
no clew to the thief or the missing
property. .
Plumbing and heating. Bixby at Bon,
Library Board Adjourns.
Owing to the failure of Patton A Miller,
the Chicago architects, to arrive here yes
terday the library board last night failed to
take any action relative to the selection of
plant, or the Carnegie library building. The
architects telegraphed that they would be
here today without fall, so the board ad
journed until this evening. Last evening's

ALL SUNDAY AMUSEMENTS TO BE STOPPED

Was Insolvent Bondsmen Fay
County Deposit.
(Prom a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Dec. 7. (Special.) The
Des Moines Ministerial assoclaUon made
a move this morning toward stopping all
Sunday amusements In the city. During
the summer a resort variety show was per
mitted to operate on Sundays the same
aa week days and recently the proprietor
of the Mirror theater' has been giving
Sunday evening shows In his place. Today
tho Ministerial association sent a formal
notice to Mayor Brenton, calling his at
tention to the fact that Bunday theaters
have been permitted and demanding that
the theater be closed. . Within a few min
utes the deputy chief of police filed In
formation against J. S. Connolly, pro
prioter of the Mirror theater, and he waa
arrested for violating the city ordinances.
He gave bonds and will bo tried later. He
claims that all .his -.Sunday, evening per
formances have been , given . for charity
and that- this will Relieve from liability.
Sunday theaters have aover. been allowed
in Des Moines as a rule and publio senti
ment Is generally ' against them.
Woods Was a Bankrupt,
The funeral of the late George Woods
was held at Colfax this morning and a
number of his friends attended from here.
Tbe funeral was not public. Tho bank of
which he was the head Is In the hands of
a receiver and will not be reopened. It
was decided today that a statement should
be made as soon as possible. It developed
today that the bank has "cattle paper,"
or mortgages on live stock of one per
son, Mr. Ross, for $126,000, and It Is doubt
ful if this la worth anything and this
will seriously Impair the standing of the
bank flnanclaly. Arrangements have been
made by the signers of the personal bonds
held by the ex-treasurer of Polk county,
to return tho 2S,000 they hold, to this
county tomorrow. Another bond given the
treasurer of Jasper county for county
funds Is regarded of doubtful value. It la
becoming mora and more apparent that
tho real cause of the suicide was the finan
cial troubles of the bank and that a com
plete reorganisation will be necessary be
fore it can do business.
Increased Mayor's Salary.
The Des Moines city council this morn
ing passed, under suspension of the rules,
an ordinance raising the annual salary of
the mayor of Des Moines from 1 1,500 to
2,500. The ordinance will go in effect at
the close of the term of tho present mayor.
It has recently been demonstrated that
a man cannot be nominated In tho re
publican primaries for mayor without the
expenditure of many thousand dollars and
If the office ia to bo filled with good men
the pay must be raised. Already the can
didates for mayor are at work with open
headquarters . and engaged In soliciting
votes.
Park and Forestry Meeting;.
The annual meeting of the Iowa Park and
Forestry association commenced this after

Complaint has been made to tho state

Extending; Telephone System.
HAMBURG, Ia., Dec. 7.-(Speclal.)-W. F.
Rankin, the well-known banker and land
holder of Tarklo, Mo., was in this city
today, closing a deal for about $10,0u0 worth
of stock In the Southwest Iowa Telephone
company, a new corporation recently or
ganised at this place. It Is understood that
this is a part of the plan on the part of
the extensive telephone Interests of the
Ranklns In Missouri to consolidate all the
Independent .Interests along the Missouri
river. Well Informed telephone men de
clare this to be the finest exchange and
rural system In the state and enjoys the
distinction of being the only all-copper sys
tem In the whole country. 'Extensive Im
provements and additions are planned
which, with the strong financial backing
acquired today, and the valuable toll line
connections, which have been secured
through Mr. Rankin, Insure the newborn
pany success from the start. Mr. Rankin
says that this does not mean that he ex
pects to go to Omaha or Council Bluff
with a toll line, and gives it as his opinion
that connection with those points will
rather be secured through the people on the
Nebraska side of the river.
