A New Ordinance Adopted
by the City Council.
Confirmation of City Physician
Leisenring Reconsidered. '
An adjonrne.fl "Sleeting of the com-
nn5iTcouncil wai held at Its room
Wednesday. . Aldermen BakerpOorby ,
Dellone , Dunham , Herman" ! .Horn
berger , Kaufman , McGUvocb , Mo-
"Namara , O'Keefe , Stall and Mr. Presi
dent were present.
The president announced that the
object of the meeting was to establish
a uniform curb-line for all the streets
of the city.
Mr. Kaufmann asked leave to present
a resolution which waa granted , anc
the fallowing resolution was. read by
the clerk. _ . " V . j
RE BOLTED , That the appointment
and confirmation of P. S. LeUenrlng
as city physician be re-considered.
The president suggested that as the
mayor made4.be appointment-the coun
cil , could np t , re consider that , bnt
could merely-re-conslder the confirma-
ation. - - =
The resolution was changed to read
accordingly. JDTt"r T7" *
Mr. Stull stated that'he knew of no
good reason'for commencing1 a war on
the mayor's appointments , especially
as Dr. lisisenring. wai regularly ap
pointed Wednesday evening. *
Mr. Kauimann was In favor of reporting -
porting tha appointment to the police
committee In tne regular way.
A vote was taken on the orginal
resolution , seven being In favor of the
action andL two against.
On motion the appointment waa re
ferred to the committee on police
Mr. Duuham moved that the conn
cil go into committee of the whole
with Mr. Hermann in the chair.
Adopted.
The following ordinance wai then
read by tbe clerk :
TUB OKIONANCX r
provided that " 'the curb-1 liner "on all
streets within the city of Omaha , ex
cepting the parts of bo'h Farnham
street and Douglas streeteast-oflGth
street , between Farnham street and
Douglas street , and the part of 10th
street between Pierce street and Hick
ory street , be and the same are hereby
e.tablishedjat a distance fromthe , street
line on eacn side of the street of one
fifth tha width of the street. "
IL The grade elevation of said curb
lines shall be the lame at the inter
secting points of all streets , as now ,
fixed by existing ordinances - -
Mr. Kaufmann , statedthat ha was
In favor of the passage of the ordi
nance , as it-was important to estab
lish.the.curb , .linea.in. .order that-ihe
Water Works Company might have
the location of its hydrants fixed. The
present atreeta were entirely too wide
and if the ordinance'-were passed it
would be much easier to keep the
streets in repair and muck easier , tu
pive thcoa. The cost 4of keeping
sidewalk in repalr "wpald ; be about
one-tenth of what it would ; co t _ to
keep a street in repair. He would te
in faver himself of making some of
the sidewalks tventy-five feet wide.
Mr. McGavoek was notin-favpr'of
adopting the ordinance , bnt believed
in letting well enough alone. t. . ,
The president laoved 'M aa amendment - '
ment to seetion 1 tnatTIf be * changed
to read all streets east of the west line
of Sixteenth street.
Mr. K f mann was opposed to the
amendment.
Mr. Hornberger was in favor of It.
, Mr. Dailey xplalne < i * that thU
change was necessary to make tbe or
dinance more definite.
.Mr. BaVerf aid/lhat.the exceptions ;
made on Fornham and Douglas streets'
were simply because the curb lines on-
these streets were very generally lo
cated , and the sidewalks laid. He waa
in favor of - " '
commencing -.right"and'
making the work thoronghj iri h.lno
exceptions. He understood-the above
- - - - - * - 5 " - - . *
T--1-1
* : rT s r. ; t
streets were only temporarily excepted -
ed from the ordinance , aad would
eventually be made uniform with the
others , bnt he thought that making an
exception was opening the way to
more Irregularity. The trouble had
been in Omaha that there had been
nothing permanent , nothing fixed.
They had shifted from one curb line
to another curb line. Ho was op
posed to the amendment
Mr. Oorbf was also opposed to the
amendment.
Mr. Dally said he found the ordi
nance did not descrtbn clearly enough
the limits of the territory , and moved
that the amendment be changed to
read "all streets west of 16h street ,
and between Nicholas on the north ,
and Pierce on the south. "
Mr. Kaufmann thought that a
width of forty feet between curbs was
sufficient
Mr. Oorby hoped the council would ,
be careful in considering this question.
If the twenty foot width for sidewarks
was not adopted now he believed the
hydrants would have to beramored to
make room for a twenty foot curb.
Mr. Baker read an ordinance In ef
fect in Kansas City , making all side
walks one-fifth of the width of the
public street , and believed in making
the matter right now , and in making
it' uniform.
Mr. McGavock did not think the
ordinance was very exact , as it had
the'clanse "unless otherwise specially
provided. "
Mr. O'Keefe wished to know how
many hydrants would be affected by
the change and what it wocld cost to
remove them.
Mr. Shelton , secretary of the Water
Works company , who was in the room ,
was asked to answer this questionand
said the cost would be 912 per hydrant ,
except where the hydrants were
broken ia removing them , which would
sometimes happen , when it would cost
from $50 to | 75.
Mr. Dunham The gas company
have put the lamps up sometimes
with instructions and sometimes
without , and I do not think they have
any claims upon the city if they are
required to move them. They have
set them just where it suited them.
Where tha curb is set on Farnham
street , the lamps are at proper dis
tance from tba property line.
Stull It seems to me that the only
valid objection to taking tha ordi
nance as it stands is in relstion to in
creasing the expense resulting from
curtain streets being brought to grade ,
and some paving and guttering that
has .been done on some of them. This
ordinance has been carefully prepared
in view of a .plan which shall make
the curb line of this city uniform
throughout the city as far as possible.
That ia , that the curb line shall be at
a uniform distance frtm the property
line throughout Omaha , with the ex
ception of those two or three streets
that are named. I have weighed
this matter carefully and have
come to the conclusion that it
Is decidedly the best plan to
abide by the ordinance as it Is
drawn , and for this reason , that we
ought to secure uniformity. That Is
the theory. Now , if It is practical to
do so letus strictly hold to the theory ,
bat if it is not let us devise the best
means passible. I am opposed to the
amendment.
Mr. Daily Introduced the following
resolution :
RESOLVED , That the sidewalk line
on all streets and avenues be estab
[ ished'as follows : On one hundred
and twenty and one hundred feet
streets the outer line of sidewalk
mould be fourteen feet from the lot
line. .
On motion the committee rose and
teported progress ; making the follow
ing report :
MR. PRESIDENT : The committee of the
hole , after due consideration of themat-
r of establishing curb lines on the streets
n the city of Omaha , report as follows :
'Warect > mmend..th section 1otthaor *
dinahce shall be amended BO as to include
all' ' east'of the west line of Sixteenth
street , and' between Nichols , * * street on
the north and Pierce street on the south.
SAMUEL HEBXANN , Chairman.
A motion to adopt the report was
lost , by a vote of 6 to 6
On motion of Mr Kaufmann the
ordinance was read a third time and
put npon its passage.
Mr. Dunham in voting explained
that he voted against his own opinion ,
nearly all of his constituents being in
favor of the ordinance.
Mr. Kaufmann stated that he Voted
for the ordinance for the purpose
of diminishing the cost of paving the
streets.
Th'e ordinance was adopted by the
following vote :
Ayec Baker , Oorby , Dunham ,
Hermann , Kanfmann , Stnll and
Dailey. *
Nays Dellone , Hornberger. Me-

TED BED CLOUD INDIANS.
Interesting Conversation With
Dr. V. T..McQilliouddy
ofthePineBidga
Agency.
Dr. T. V. McGlllicuddy , the gov
ernment agent at Pine Ridge agency ,
where the Red Cloud Indians are situated -
ated , wastin.this city yesterday , on his
way to Washington , Mr. McGllli-
cuddy was found in front of tha
Wlthnell house , where he is stop
ping , in conversation with Agent
Lewellyn , who Is soon to leave for his
post in Arizonza , where he assumes
control of the dangerous Apaches , of
which Victoria and his gang are a
part ; „
In reply to a question as to tbe sit
uation of PineRldge agency , the doc
tor said that everything was' very
quiet and prosperous. "The removal
of the troops from Camp Sheridan , "
said he-"which is ' "
, - now taking'place ,
will leave us sixty miles distant from
any military protection of const
quence , but still" there is no' danger
that we need fear. The Red Cloud
Indians are now living in neven vil
lages. They are building log houses ,
for which the government 'furnishes
them doors and windows , and
also a cooking stove to each house.
This serves to anchor them
in such a way that they .are .not con
stantly movingabout. The mijorlty
cultivate tracts of land , which they
are at present plowing and preparing
to seed. In the seven villages there
are at present five nourishing schools ,
and I am in hopes of securing an ap
propriatlon of twenty thousand dollars
lars , with which we could build
boarding school right * there at the
agency which would accommodate
from two to three hundred children.
"As far as government goes , that is
attended to by the Indian police , of
whom there are fifty. They are all
mounted and splendidly armed , and
exercise almost absolute authority over
the rest There is no sort of control
that is so effective as that possessed by
these police. The Red Cloud Indiana
are on the increase at a rapid rate.
They have plenty to eat and very little
to trouble them , and they can't help
but grow in numbers. We have em
ployed quite a number arouud the post
during the year , and at present have a
good many employed building a reser
voir , to ba used for , water works in
tended to be construotedT
"I am going to Washington to get
acquainted with the "Great Father"
and find out his and the department's
particular ideas in regard to manage
ment and treatment of the Indians in
the future. There are two classes of
people who cause us a great deal of
* *
trouble. One class are theBoston
philanthropists , who don't know as
much about the Indian as the Indian
does about Europe , and who persist
in advancing their peculiar ideas in
regard to his treatment ; and the
other class are the people who can
make money out of disturbances with
the IndiaasThey gat up the most
outrageous lies and try t breed
trouble , in order that troops may be
sent out , and they can sell goods or
make some kind of a "raise" during
the excitement Now this recently
reported trouble up the Little Missouri
has no foundation. The Indians are
peaceable and won't raise a roirun-
less the whites provoke them into it. "
Speaking of'Sitting Bull , Dr.Mo-
Gilcuddy said tHatlhe chief was anx
ious to come back'if'he could be u *
suted that .he wouldn't be harmed ; bnt
that he feared he would bo .hung if
that assurance was not given ; "aa'd , "
added the doctor , "I don't know as I
blame the eli man for thinking more
of his neck than of a residence In the
United States. "

in different directions. McKinney
had. sofilcient ptesenoe of mind .to

could ran , shouting "Police t"at

A Bold Assault.
A German about forty years old
entered.Merritt's restaurant last evenIng -
Ing , and finding a man who could
speak German , declared that he ar
rived at .the depot last evening with ,
his family , having jo.it arrived from
Germanyand whlle.looking for a ho
tel for his wife and children was approached
preached by supposed cripple
ple/ > who asked in ' German
what he wanted and
treated him very kindly , finally offer
ing to take to just the placa the. Ger
man desired. They had taken but a
few steps , however , reaching a retired
spot , when the .supposed cripple struck
his companion a blow on * the head ,
felling him to the ground. He picked
hiaaself up and was again knocked down ,
when he succeeded in drawing a revolver
ver and the supposed cripple , took to
his heels. The man claimed to have
bj en a merchant in Germany and to
have .had f2,000 on his person when
he was attacked. He suted that he
had come to Omaha to go into busi
ness and would watch about the depot
for a week.unless he should discover
hb assailant before that time.
Several Germans heard the man's
story and believe from his words and
manner that he told the truth.
