There Is to be no further delay In the
completing of all contracts fur public Im
provements, such as paving and laying
of permanent sidewalks. This was the
diet sent forth by Mayor Macrae and the
newly elected aldermen at the meeting
of the city council last night. Every one
of the new aldermen and the mayor hlm
elf had some grievance In thla rei'ect
to relate and the result was that a blanket
resolution requiring- every contractor to
go to work nt once nnd llnlnh up hi
contract without further delay was
adopted.
Contractor WIckhHtn wan ordered to
complete the paving of Harrison street,
and he Informed the council that he had
seventy-five men at work there and was
prepared to put 200 men to work before
the end of the week. He was anxious,
he declared, to place several gangs at
work on the cement walks on Broadway
as soon as the council decided what was
to be done In the matter of repairing or
resetting the curbing.
Alderman McMillan wanted sidewalks
laid In the Fifth ward, and Alderman
Crlppen urged that the man who had the
contract for five or six miles of sidewalks
In the Sixth ward be required to go to
work and lay them, especially the walks
on Urnadway between Thirteenth and
Twenty-fourth streets. This contract, he
said, had been let several years ago, but
as yet was barely started.
As a result of the discussion the alder
men will meet as a committee of the wholo
this afternoon and make a tour of the
city to Investigate what Improvements
should bo first carried out.
Dr. Mat Tinley, the newly appointed
city physician, recommended as a result
of the report of the grand Jury that the
city Jail be repainted throughout, sani
tary plumbing Installed and the building
be heated from the plant In the city hall.
In connection with the city Jail Mnyor
Macrae recommended that the second
floors of the jail and patrol house be con
nected with a covered bridge, so that the
Jail might be used solely for the Incar
ceration of prisoners and tho department
provided with offices over the patrol house.
By this arrangement, he said, proper quar
ters could be provided In the jail for female
prisoners. The matter was referred to
the committee on city buildings and
bridges.
Troable Otfr Removals.
Two changes In the fire department had
been announced In an evening paper and
Mayor Macrae called upon Chief Nicholson
nd the committee on fire and light for
an explanation as to why such changes had
been made before being, brought before the
council. Chief Nicholson in answer to the
mayor said that but two changes had been
made: C. M. Bwarti, recently transferred
from No. 2 engine house to No. 3, had been
removed and Ed "Walker appointed in his
place. Foreman Carothers, who had been
appointed since election by Chief Temple
ton, and Chairman I.ovett of the old fire
and light committee, had been removed
and George Bailey appointed in his place.
Bwarti. It will be remembered. Is the fire
man against whom Alderman TInley some
time ago filed charges of not paying his
debts. It developed at the time that Swartz
had refused to pay a bill from a coal firm
for which Alderman TInley was collector.
The former city council, after Investigation,
declined to take any action. Before this
matter was dismissed Mayor Macrae in
formed the aldermen that he should Insist
that no such action as the dismissal of
men In any department should be taken
by any committee before reporting to the
council and securing Its approval.
The Judiciary committee reported that It
had settled the personal Injury claim of
Mrs. Mary Mack for ISO. Mrs. Mack orig
inally demanded !5,Ono.

The Retail Grocers' and Butchers' as
sociation. In a communication, asked that
a meat, fruit and vegetable inspector be
appointed by tho city. R. Huntington of
the association addressed the council In
support of the request. He stated that

officer as there was for a health officer, as
there was a large quantity of meat and
produce placed upon the market which was
unfit for use. As to the funds to pay the
salary of such an officer. Mr. Huntington

do its part. The services of an inspector

FORECAST OF THE WEATHER
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, April ll.-Speclal.)-The
largest of the appropriation bills was
Anally got out of tho way today when the
senate adopted the house figures on the
state educational Institutions. The house
figures show a total of $t'2.0OO for the
three Institutions, divided as follows: State
college, PS6.0U0; state university, liOS.OOO;
state normnl school, $SS,00. The senate ap
propriations committee had recommended a
reduction In the sums by I3,ono Bt Ames,
$:4,O0O at Iowa City and $4,000 at Cedar Falls.
On these amendments, relating chiefly to
the engineering and dairy departments and
cutting out u few of the smaller items,
the discussion was waged all forenoon In
the senate, and there were many worm
words exchanged between members. The
charge of lobbying on the part of the heads
of the state Institutions was made on the
floor of the sennte and against this the nc
cusatlou of unfriendliness to these institu
tions. After tho amendments were voted
down the bill was passed, thus closing that
part of the appropriation matter.
Tried to 1 nflo a Rad Job.
The house today made an effort to undo
some work done last week and voted down
the bill which will enable Waterloo to have
an additional alderman. There Is much
doubt as to whether the bill has In fact
been defeated and It may be passed up to
the governor for his signature. The bill
had passed the house nnd senate and when
it caino back to the house for enrollment
a motion to reconsider was made, enter
tained and adopted, and today the bill on a
second vote was voted down 4 to 67. But
It Is claimed that the house had no right
to do anything of the sort at this time.
Whether the speaker will sign it or the
governor, should it come to him, remains
to be determined.
Soldiers Hare Some Fan.
While the house of representatives was
at ease today, waiting for some work to
come over from the senate, Colonel 8. A.
Moore, the sergeant-at-arms, presented
Captain E. J. C. Lealer of Cedar Rapids,
with a handsome gold heuded cane as a
compliment from the old soldiers of the
legislature. There was much humor in the
situation for he referred to the basket duel
of Saturday evening as one of the fiercest
he had ever witnessed. Mr. Benler bore
evidences of his participation by numerous
.cars on his face. His chief antagonist,
Mr. Freeman of Pottawattamie, was not
present. The two men had been the last
to hold put In the customary basket duel
of the closing days of the session. The
cane was presented to Bealer by the old
soldier in honor of his victory at the duel.
Governor Is Improved,
Governor Cumniins has recovered suffi
ciently so that he wa. back in hi. office
today for the first time for nearly three
weeks. He Is very weak, but felt It neces
sary to be at tils office at least for short
time in order to sign the bills that come to
hi in In haste. He will not be able for much
duty for some time and expects to take
a trip away to escape his work. The gov
ernor expects to go tomorrow to West
Boden, Ind., for rest and recuperation.
Fixing; State IIodbo Salaries.
The senate today passed the resolution,
with some amendments, to fix the salaries
of the clerks, secretaries and other about
the state house. The resolution cover, all
those whose salaries are not fixed by stat
ute. Tho tendency was to Increase salaries
about the state house and of those In the
service of the state, and this was done
with a view to bringing the pay up to
what is usually paid elsewhere In the state
for like service. When the resolution went
to the house it refused to concur on a vote
89 to 39, but later reconsidered and passed
the same.
The senate passed a house bill to punish
persons for scattering contagious diseases
about the country.
Try to Raise Salaries.
Members of the supreme court receive
unequal pay. The bill to Increase their
pay from $4,000 a year to K.,000 a year ap
plies by degrees only, and some of the
Judges are receiving less pay than the
others, and all doing the same work. Today
the Judiciary committee of the house rec
ommended a bill which would give to the
Judges receiving the smaller pay $2,000 a
year for "clerk hire." etc. It was promptly
voted down by the house.
The house passed a senate bill relating
to drainage of lands, establishing the com
mon law practice In Iowa a. to water
cour.ee.
Adjourned Matters.
Tso house passed over to the senate a
concurrent resolution fixing tho hour of
adjournment at noon on Tuesday. This
will probably be the hour of adjournment.
Coal Mea Confer.
The Joint conference of the Iowa Coal
Operators' association and of the delegates
to the Mine Workers union reconvened
today. Charles Morris of Des Moines,
president of the operator.' association, pre
sided. The operators' committee met at
1:30 o'clock this afternoon and after a few
minute, decided to wait for a proposition
from the miners. At ! o'clock the miner,
stated that no proposition could be made
until o'clock tomorrow morning. Vpon
receiving thla information the operators ad
journed until 9 o'clock. The miners' com
mittee went Into executive session for
mulating the proposition they desire to
submit.
Session Ends Today.
The legislature this afternoon reached an
agreement as to the hour of adjournment
and the session will close at noon tomor
row. Nearly all the appropriation bill, were
passed. Including the general salary bill
and the Joint resolution fixing salaries of
clerks and others. A considerable fight de
veloped this afternoon on the bill to ap
propriate funds for repair of the .tale
house, and the amount was rut down In the
house from $J(.0OO to $100,000.
The senate will consider this reduction
tomorrow.
The senste this evening refused to recon
sider the rote by which the resolution to
pardon Sarah Kuhn was lost.
