SEWER MATTER

MUCH DISCUSSION OF PROPOSI
TION OF USING SUBWAY
TO DISPOSE WATER.
From Tuesday's Dally.
The meeting of the city council
last evening was attended by all but
Councilman J. C. Brittain. who was
detained on account of the injunc
tion litigation at Omaha.
There was nothing of great im
portance to come before the council
with the exception of the discussion
if the changing of the sewer plans
to provide for use of the subway in
stead of the original plans of mak
ing the sewer extend across and un
der the Burlington right of way.
Relative to the placing of a side
walk along Richey street. L. C. Sharp
had a communication before the
council in which he stated that that
street would in the future largely be
devoted to industrial purposes and
for that reason he thought that a
sidewalk would be unnecessary as in
the future his company expected to
construct tracks from the Burling
ton lines to the Alfa-Maize mills and
other switching facilities that would
do away with the necessity of a
sidewalk. On motion the communica
tion was placed on file.
A communication was also read
from Joseph O. Berger of Omaha,
representing Grace L. Berger and
Flora Nelson, the two ladies who
were in the auto accident on 12th
street on the afternoon of Labor day,
pnd in which it was stated that if
the city did not compromise the mat
ter that they would file claims for
damages. The communication did not
give the amount that would be asked
from the city. H. A. Nelson, ow ner of
the car, will also ask damages of the
city On the suggestion of Mayor
Johnson tho matter was referred to
the judiciary committee and city at
torney to take what action they
might see fit in the defense of the
interests of the city..
Chief of Police William Barclay
reported that during the month of
August there had been collected
-56.50 in fines and $21 in costs.
City Clerk A. II. Durbury also re
ported that for the month past the
sum of $1,131. $7 had been collected
and placed in the city strong box.
City Treasurer C. E. Hartford filed
his report showing that the sum of
$34.9S7.4! was on balance in the city
funds and that the registered war
rants of the city totaled the sum of
$74,000.
The streets, alleys and bridges
committee through Chairman James
Ptacek reported that the committee
recommended that the crossings on
Lincoln avenue be taken up and re
placed with others of a more flat
tened surface nd which would elim
inate a great deal of th present
trouble. This report was adopted by
a unanimous vote.
The police committee thru Chair
man Frank Sebatka reported on the
petition asking the mayor to take
steps to have the chief of police re
moved, in which the committee re
commended that the petition be plac
ed on file. The committee recom
mended that the chief be asked to
lay before the council the facts in the
release of Earl Williams, Wes Bartik
and Mrs. M. J. Hines. This report
was adopted.
Frank T. Darrow, Burlington en
gineer, was present and was asked
by Mayor Johnson to give his views
of the sewer proposition. Mr. Dar
row stated that the railroad would
be willing to co-operate in any way
possible and that the use of the sub
way as a temporary sewer would not
be objectionable. He regretted that
a misunderstanding had been reach
ed relative to the matter of the cost
of putting in the sewer under the
Burlington tracks as the railroad was
willing to do the work without cost
but this included all of the cost of
the work and not merely the price of
the sewer pipe. The Burlington ex
pected in the near future to con
struct a new sewer near the present
stockyards and which would mean
that a pile driver would be here to
construct temporary bridges for the
main line and shop lead tracks and
while the pile driver was here he
thought that the railroad would like
to go ahead with the city work as
the material was all here.
Considerable discussion was had
relative to what the city should do
in regard to the construction of the
sewer and in which it was brought
out that the railroad had adopted
the policy of having a -deposit made
in advance in work of this kind.
It was finally decidel that the mat
ter be referred to the judiciary com
mittee, city attorney and mayor to
confer with the Burlington legal de
partment to see if it was not possible
to have the ordinance changed and
the city assume the responsibility
for the water.
The third partial estimate was
read on the Main street paving for
the sum of $3,073.72 and on the re
commendation of the engineer. Mr.
Coleman, the contractor, was allow
ed this sum.

ed paid by the finance committee:

Very Largely Attended and
Year's Work Started.
From Tuesday's Dally.
The opening meeting of the Platts
mouth Woman's club for the year

books were given out to the mem
bers of the club and the plans for
the ensuing year discussed.

POLLOCK FAMILY HOME
FROM TRIP TO COLORADO
Saturday evening T. H. Pollock,
wife and daughter. Miss Alice, re
turned home from a stay of some
six weeks ir the west, and report a
very delightful trip by auto during
their journey.
They traveled in the Lincoln tour
ing car of Mr. Pollock and made
2, Til" miles on the trip. The only
puncture that was experienced on
the trip was at Lincoln Saturday
or. the return when a large nail was
picked up and delayed the party
somewhat. While in the west they
made a two weeks visit with James
K. Pollock at his ranch near Piedra.
in the southwest rsirt of the state.
and here they enjoyed the fishing ;
and hunting for the duration of
their stay and also visited the Mesa
Verde national park south of Du
rango. where is located one of the
villages of the cliff dwellers as the
earlier Indian tribes of the south
west -were known and spent ?om
time in the exploration of the homes
of the early residents of the country.
This is a most interesting, spot and
the government is conducting the
work of excavation of the village and
a large number of the homes have
been brought to light.
BIG GAS ATTACK
From Tuesday's Dually
It is related to the Journal scribe
that one of our well known and pop
ular business men was a victim yes
terday of a real gas attack, which,
while not as severe- as the "Jerrys"
used to pur over the trenches, was
sufficient to cause the aforesaid bus
iness man to remain in a state of
quietude for the day and his closest
friends state that he even heard the
tingling of the belis on the celestial
gates. It seems from what can be
learned of the afiair that arising at
an early hour, the chilly weather
caused a turning on of the gas heat
er to warm up the rooms and the
business man then retired to his
couch to rest until the heat should
become pleasant for arising. Falling
asleep he did not awaken until later
and then found the gas heater had
caused more or less fumes and as the
result he had a splitting headache
and was compelled to remain on his
couch the rest of the day. This is the
truthful statement of the case and
does away with the theory that some
of the friends advanced that it was a
diabolic plot to make away with the
genial business man.

the report and minority report has

The majority of committee favor
ed the proposal on the ground that
it was a move toward church unit;.
Bishop Weller's objections were prin
cipally in regard to the validity of
non-Episcopal ordained ministers,
and to the lack of provision for cen
lirmation of Congregational minis
ters who may desire ordination in
the Protestant Episcopal church.
Bishop Weller proposed two reso
lutions, one expressing approval of
the people of the church unity and
the other proposing that the commis
sion be instructed to concentrate its
cfiort to bring about an approich
towards unity between this church
and the national council of Congre
