RESULTS IN NOTHING, AS USUAL i Oar Aniirsrt to Know Wherry Money Is to tome from for 5 err Plant or What tn nates A re Likely to Br. The wsler works iiestinn Km rerpon slble for one of tho nhl-t Ime discussions from which nothing resulted, and from which nothing will result according to the expressed opinion of Mayor Macrae, at the meeting of tho city council last night. The net result of the protracted discussion was the laying over of the matter, namely ad vertising for bids and specifications pre pared by City Engineer Etnyre for a municipal plant until the next meeting. After the matter had been threshed over In the same old way and substantially In the same old languague. Mayor Maerne took a hand In the discussion, "This Is all ," said Mayor Macrae, using a for eign word which was understood to mean "nonesense." "I don't believe we will get any bids and even .If wo do have bidders, there wll be an injunction out so quick as to make bur heads swim. There Is no need of any hurry In this matter. A few months more won't hurt, seeing we have waited twenty-seven years already. Ix-fs dlscues the question thoroughly and thereby let the next council have the benefit of our discussion This nrw plant will not be built bv April 1." Councilman Hendrlx had moved that the clerk be Instructed to advertise for bids on the city engineer's pians and specifica tions, tha bids to be In by noon of March If, when a discussion arose as to the amount of tho certified check which should accompany each hid and the amount of the bond the successful bidder should put up. It was during this part of the discussion. or more correctly speaking, wrangle, when tha mayor took a hand and at his sugges tion the matter went ovr until the.n-'xt meeting. Strikes First fcnns. ' When the subject' of the proposed nrw plant- was first brought up Councilman Maloney wanted' to know what proposed extensions In the Second Ward had been cut out to reduib the cost of . the. plant. Councilman Smith followed with an en-1 qulry why the city engineer had cut out all the proposed extensions In the Fifth ward. His constituents, he said, paid their taxeF the same as other people and were entitled to water. Councilman Maloney expressed a similar opinion. City Engineer Etnyre with some warmth replied to the councll men with the explanation that all of the proposed extensions could not be carried out in tho new system for tha ..money which the olty was able to raise for this purpose. Councilman Fleming then took the floor, insisting that the first phase of the ques tion be considered and decided, was, where was.' the city going 'to get the cash to build the plant with. He offered some fig ures showing that the city could not ex ceed an Indebtedness all told of. $i0.000. Fnun this, he said,. ;iiuat be deducted the present lndebtcincws of the ' city, which was $260,000. leaving only MO.000 available for the water plant, or-at least 1100,000 less than It would cost. In his opinion, he said, the plant could not be built for lost) than 1660,000 and It probably would cost 10 per cent more. This brought Councilman Hendrlx to his feet with another array of figures show ing that In a few years the city would be able to devote at least Jfill.OOO towards paying for the plant. Then Councilman Flelming supplemented his former figures an enquiry as to where the city would be able to secure, the neces, sary funds to make the needed extensions and repairs if an accident happened to the plant. He spoke of the possibility of a flood from the Missouri river Injuring the reservoir, tho breaking down of the pump ing plant, etc. He also suggested that something should be known about the rates to be charged consumers. The peo ple, he said, expected lower rates If the city owned the plant, tnan they are nowing paying. ; , Wallace Makes Prediction. ' This appeared to Councilman Wallace the physcologlcal moment for hltu to afford some information on this phase of the sit uation, and he went over agnki a long ar ray of figures which for the last two years lie had claimed showed that within twenty years or ao the city would own the plant free of incumbrance.-' When the .motion to advertise for bids was ma do Councilman Knudsen amended by wanting the extensions In the Fourth ward Included in the plana. Councilman Smith took the cue and offered another amendment that the proposed extensions in the Fifth ward south of Twenty-first avenue be also Included. Mayor Macrae's counsel that the matter lay over until next week and that In iho meantime Councilman Smith and Knudsen come to some arrsnBcment with the city engineer prevailed. , The ordinance granting the Burlington railroad permission to lay a switch track on Fourth street to the Bloomer com pany's warehouse, as amended by the city solicitor, was pasl under a suspension of the rules. Councilman Fleming's ordinance raising the salaries of certain of the rlty officers was brought up, but at Mr. Fleming's suggestion was again laid over until the next regular meeting. A represent alive of a local printing house appeared before the council with a proposition to sell it 5M copies more or less, as the city deemed wise, of the new primary law. He stated that the county supervisors had ordered 2.0t0 printed for distribution in the country precincts. After mere or less dlecusalon the matter was left to the discretion of City Auditor McAneney with power to act. The matter of opening Twelfth. Thir teenth and Fourteenth streets through Avenues I. M and, N was referred to the committee of the whole. It was stated tlmt the Illlonia Central railroad's yards an shops blocked the streets In question at the points named. The committee was dliected to ascertain if these streets north of Avenue K had ever been vacated to the railroad company. These streets were re cently opened up to Avenue K by the platting of the old I'nion Driving park. The council will meet Friday afternoon to up some curbing and sewering. Conference on Mlwlona.

Three sessions will be held today, the evening meeting bringing the Institute to a close. Apologies for Brrrt, Rev. Marcus P. McClure. pastor of the First Presbyterian church,' stated jester day that some people had placed a wrong construction on what he said Sunday rel ative to the meeting at which Attorney General Byera spoke. "Some of the re ports of whst I naiii appear to convey the Impression that I made an apology for Mr. Byers," said Mr. McClure. "I had not the slightest intention or wIk'i to make any apology for the attorney general. What I desired to explain was that neither the church nor .the members of the congre gation believed In making personal attack! from the pulpit such as Mr. Byera did. 1 liavrt no apology to make for Mr. Byers, as that Is something he can well take rare of himself. 1 merely regret the character of the attorney general's ad dress and so stated. I was also anxious to explain to my congregation that the blame for the meeting being held In their church. If any, should attach to me. I did not and do not consider that I was in any way to blame for whst Mr. Byers said, how ever much I may regret It, therefore I have and had not any apologies to make." Y. 'ill. C.
