THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : FBI DAY * AUGUST 20 , 1881. COUNCIL BLUFFS , A Very Lively Time Spent There Yesterday. Council Concludes to Reduce the Mayo i's Salary. Large Number of Serioua Ac cidents Recorded. Other Mnttor * of Moro or X.OM Im" jiortnnco. ; A BRISK MEETING. COUNCIL DECIDES TO REDUCE TUB MAVon's S.VLAKV. tur ) city fathers mot at Keller's furniture store at an early hour Wed nesday evening to take into considera tion what they should do to punish the mayftr. After deciding that Al derman Keller should introduce n bill stripping the purchasing power from his honor , and reducing his sal ary to $300 , they adjourned to meet nt the city building. When they filed in Natu 1'hollips , second lieuten ant and the mayor * with his coat oft" wore in their scats ready to receive them. "Good evening Mr. Keller , lionr is the park progress ing ? " was the ihayor'fi , ' nalu- tation. Keller drooped a little and replied it was quite close in the room and that window had Better bo opened. At this moment Mr. Holmes rushed inand stated that the democratic candidate for governor was waiting for Jiini down at the Pacific house , and lie wanted to say what ho had to say and leave. The mayor stated that the city attorney's wishes should bo complied with nnd ho could proceed. Mr. Holmes said that the lots on had all been purchased by the city on the basis of $700 , the amount paid John Clausen. As lor the petition of Jnmes 13row tcr , W. 0. James , and others , to-abandon the present city charter , ho did not think it advisable at present , It would entail - tail upon thii city useless elections , nnd nt n time when laboring men were busy and would not have a chance to express themselves at the polls. Alderman Churchill , to whom the citizens' petition was referred , xaid that ho was not ready to report nnd did not intend to do so , Ho did not believe .that any oi the petitioners would kick if wo sailed awliilo longer with our present captain and crew. Mr. Yaughan took down the law and road it to the coun cil. Ho had never read the section of tlio cede which provides , ' 'That upon the petition of fifty legal voters requesting that the question of aband oning our city charter bo submitted to the people the council shall immediate ly direct a special election to bo held , at which time such questions shall bo \f \ decided. The mayor " thought it was Ilia duty to at once issue n proclamation and ] iavo the question submitted. But 1 ho law says that the council must di rect ii to bo done , then the mayor shall issue his proclamation After quito n debate it was decided to wait and hear what Air. Churchill has to say next Saturday evening. After a few minor matters were pre sented nnd disposed of , S. 8. Keller arose and drew from his pocket nn ap parently harmless weapon. He sol emnly turned it towards Nate Phillips , who simply waved his hand requested that if the thing was loaded to point it some other way. Wo expected to see the mayor dodge under the table , Init ho wasn't frightened n particle. III1. Keller said in a broken voice : "It is with no slight dc groo of embarrassment that I rise to address von. The mayor of this oily has always boon on friendly terms with mo until the pcoplo ot this city called us hero to protect their rights. I believe that a dollar saved is oa good as a dollar earned.Vo .have already imposed a tax of nbout < ( nor con' , on the pcoplo of Council JJlulTs. They nro beginning to feel that they had rather starve to death on land in Kansas than bo over whelmed hero in this city with taxation Our mayor has been in the habit of getting 'budge' by purchasing the materials that are required by the several committees. I believe that this commission could and should bo saved , and now offer n resolution that the power of making purchases for the city bo taken from fie mayor and conferred on the chair men of the different committees , who shall not bo allowed to charge for their services. " Mr. Yaughan arose nnd said : "Gentlemen , before you takp from mo this privilege I desire to say n few words. I believe in economy as sincerely ns Alderman Kcllor who proposes to reduce the compensation of the mayor of this city to 8300. Ho thought that while the council were in the humor they had bottcr pass a resolution that from that hour no member of the city gov ernment should bo allowed any com pensation whatever , They wanted him to attend to the duties of mayor of this city for 1)00 ) and rent and to furnish his own ofiico. The city of Omaha that does not make half the pretensions that wo do pay4their mayor § 1,000 per year and furnish him a first class ollico. " Mayor Yaughan did not see why it was now proposed to rob him , May or James and every other mayor since tro have been a city had done the pur chasing. To be sure there was no very largo bank account derived from this source , but ho behoved that it put him in uji a position to save the city a good many dollars. Not long ago ho made u purchase of a man out in the coun try who had a quarry. Ho mot him und he said ho was mayor of Council lUulla , nnd by virtue of the oltico ho was compelled to do the purchasing for the city , and asked how much per perch ho would take for his stono. "Perch , " said the man , "what do youjjncan ? " "Why , " said the mayor , "I mean how much do you want u l > crci in mcasure'i" "Well , I do deClare - Clare ) " said the seller , "blamed if I know how much n porch is. " .The mayor said "suppose wo call it 25 feet ? " The mayor , elucidating the anecdote , continued ! "A porch h 10 feet , and I got 25 feet , and for this act alone this power should not betaken taken from me. " U limy bo rcmark6d that section 2050 of the cede defines n perch of stnno as measuring 25 cubic feet , nnd wo recommend to the city council to have the stone measured and allow the man from whom the same was purchased the full measure. After the mayor subsided the question on the original mo tion was taken up and Mr. .Keller's resolution carried , with Alderman Phillips dissenting. Mr. Vauglmn presented a communication from Thomas L. Kimball , which in sub stance read as follows : I have fdlly investigated the matter of hacks calling for passengers at the Tnion Pacific depot , and find that Mr. Starr is not an employe of this company but of Messrs , Markel it Swono. I find that Mr. Starr did nothing wrong but was merely assist ing detxt policemen in carrying out the rules of the company. Mr , Boynwas was on the depot platform and in the waiting rooms soliciting passengers. Mr. Starr told him it was against the rules and ho must not do it , and re ported matters to Depot Policeman McMullon , who corroborates Mh .Starr's statement. Had Mr. Boyd re mained in the proper place 'for hacks his complaint would not have been nado , The mayor informed the council .hat ho had written to Mr. Kimball ; o plcaso designate what portion of ; ho U. P. platform was ; devoted to muling and receiving 'passengers ' by lackmeii , Alderman Fonda stated that ho had Jioroughly investigated the charge. Mr. Boyd had disobeyed the rules to such an extent as to merit all the abuse if any that ho received , Mr. Yaughan also had road a commuhica- ion from Mr Chapman who has bcoti .rcating this city to an opera hpuso. Ho says that ho will bo in this city in a few days and will be ; lad to meet all citizens inter ested in nn opcrn house. N. M. Pus- ey and Dr. McCunoprescntedn verbal petition io the council asking that they : .iusu to bo appointed fifteen extra tolicamon to servo nt the fair grounds hiring the coming races. Mr. Ynughan asked if Spencer Smith , Hor.ico Ever ett or Thomas Motcalf wore brcsent md ready to report on the Binds itrcot grade. Mr , Smith stated that 10 met the other * members of the committee , and they had come to n Iccision , but it had not been reduced ; o writing. Ho wanted to know if ho council intended to adopt , ho report of the citizens' committee when made. Mr. D.iuson said they should if it suited the coun cil. Mr. Smith could sec no sense n this way of doing business. Ho recognized the respect due to the resent city government , but ho could lot sco any reason in asking the citi zens to settle a fjrado dispute if it ww subject to n review by the city coun cil. It was decided by the council to .ako no further action in the promi ses until the citizens' committee ro- lortod. After transacting other un matters the council ad journed to moot next Saturday night. AN EXPLANATION INHKIAIU ) TO THAT MIS.S1NO LKTTKH. Two articles appeared in The Non pareil nnd Glebe in regard to the lot- .or left by the Gorman suicide. The first article says that the letter was ; ivon to Tun Bui ; with the promise ; lmt it should bo returned. The Glebe article says "the letter was given to TUB Bni : with the solemn premise that it should bo returned. " The facts of the case are that after the coroner's inquest Tin : BKK re porter secured tholottorfromMr. Paul. Wo asked him if he wanted it re turned. Ho replied that ho did not know as there was any need of it ns there was no nnmo signed to it. At the same time they had bettor preserve - servo it in case it should bo inquired for. Wo sent the letter to Omaha nnd wrote TUB BII : ollico in regard to preserving - serving the same. However this letter in sumo way got misplaced nnd they never received it. In a week or so Mr. Paul said there was n Gorman woman down at St. Joe who had written - ton asking about the man who had conimittod suicide. She stated that her husband loft homo nbout one year ago saying ho was goinfj to kill himself. The world had done him wrong but ho had not done wrong by the world. If her statement is true she need only inquire of Mprgan the undertaker and ho will inform nor whore the remains of her husband nro , There are half n dozen citizens hero who examined the handwriting carefully , and could toll at sight whcthor any writing produced corresponds with that found on the of the suicide. The same may Eerson to the young man who has boon here hunting for his father. It certainly looks queer that n young man should bo around hunting for liis father and refuse to make known Itis nnmo. Hud Tin ; Bui ; at Omaha received the letter sent from here it would have been preserved. They nro doing all thi'y can to find it. The trouble nil came from their failing to got our letter , Wo can only say that we are sorry that the coroner ever lot n document of so much pretended value go from under Inn control. ACCIDENTS TUB UNIMUAL pUMUKIl Of THEM THAT OCCUUHKI ) YKHTKllPAV , A series of accidents occurred in , this city yesterday dining the parade of the circus.

The har ness broke nnd the thills were sticking over the horso's back on either side. Whether ho was drunk or whether ho really couldn't control the animal wo did not learn , TUB 1II.UFF8 IN 1IKIF.F. There was n smash-up out on the out on the K. C , road Wednesday night nbout 11 o'clock , which resulted ih demolishing n cnr-load of beer. All the beer was not spilled on the ground , judging from the condition of a car-load of men that came into Council Bluffs about midnight. A pipe carried in his pocket by Mr. Noble , proprietor of Noblo's hotel on North street , yesterday saved that gentleman the loss of $100 , A pick pocket struck for thopockctbook his knife and the blndo no doubt struck the pipe nnd prevented it cut ting the pocket out.

It will convene again this morning nt ! ) o'clock. A WELL DKHKHVKD COMPLIMENT. To the Editor of The lloc. COUNCIL BLUFFS , August 24. While THE BKK is ono of the live nnd energetic institutions of Omaha , of which it may justly bo proud , it is no less so of Council Blutfs. The en ergy , tact and talent of its Council Bluffs representative ore making it a household word among our people. This much is duo C. F. Adams , who leaves no stone unturned in that di rection , Yours , BLUFFS , Rutxiim Etnpn < Story of mi Kxlle In X. Y. Herald. "When wo were on foot the sutler- ings we endured were simply inde scribable. Imagine what you pleaao yon cannot overdo it. Men , women und I might also say children - for some of the condemned were quito young girls worn driven along re morselessly , by the brutal ir.ilitary guard. Many of us carried chains , the unruly and sometimes the weak und sick ones being fastened to some more docile or stronger fellows , who where expected to prevent them from sulking or hanging back in the one case , or , in the other case , to drag the weak creature on when his or her strength gave out. I was myself chained in tins way for 800 miles to an ugly brute , who dragged on my chain by day nnd often fought for the boat place with mo when we rested , from whom I was never free , anil who sickened mo by near contact to his filthy person and vermin-stocked clothing. It was like being chained to u rotting corpse. It was more horrible than I can toll you. Again I was given charge of a woman whoso strength was fast giving put , nnd who was failing to keen up with the gang , which was , fast floundering- through the snow-storm which had been threatening all day , and which had overtaken us between stations. I helped her up and almost carried her along , as painlessly as possiqloj and 'did what 1 could to keep nor from the blows and oaths of the soldiers. She did not go much further , poor thing , but xvcnt down in the snow nnd stayed there. Wo got callous in n measure after n while- suffering and agony were such over present sights that when wo had been months on the road it begin to be , even among the best of us , n sorry fcight that would rouse oven our more than passing attention. I think wo were demented part of the way , wo became so Mupidly indifferent to much that went on , Chained to each other day nnd night , ns many of us were , drag- ing along bitterly cold , snowy iron links in our numb hands , boating our way along the snow-fields , for the roads were sometimes no hotter , witnessing the agony of the sore , bleeding creatures fastened to us , wo came at last to look for his or her death as n blessing mid n relief. No ono but these condemned to that march can npnrccinto the foraj of what 1 say when I add that it is a wonder that some of these wretches did not full to and murder each other oftener than they did. I don't say il occurred often , nor was it an open murder , but some terrible scenes were enacted in the depths of these Siberi an nights nt the stopping-places by the roadside , Not always was death' the result of n fight between convicts ; it only requited n little roughness on the part of his fellow-prisonqr or ono of our guard to extinguish before morning the life that had boon gradu ally going out day by day. _ , 'There nro nil over"Russia so-called 'etapa , ' or rfrisbn p6ns , where the gangs put up nt night on the way to Siberia. Almost nil thcso gangs con centrate nt Kazan , and in the country nbout Kazan 'etaps' nro particularly numerous , and nrof from 'hero ' on , more revolting ! } * kept than on the early part of tlio journey. The ctnp is n large brick or wooden building , surrounded with high walls , nnd in tended cnly ns a sort of human cattle shed for use over night , and , therefore it is provided with no comfort or won necessities. These etaps are scattered over Russia * and are as prominently seen in every landscape as are village schools and villngd steeples through your own Now England Slntcs. And as in America the frequency of this feature in the land is n badge of the education nnd civilization of _ the people , so the Russian etap is n' dis tinguishing badco of the ever-pres ent Russian system of oppressing the people. Exteriorly they are often fine looking buildings - interiorly they nre the reverse. They nro almost as death dealing ns was the famous Black Hole of Calcutta and few prisoners could stand any long confinement there. The otap is under nn officer of the nrmy , and the keepers nro usually unprincipled drunkards , soldiers serving their time for military offenses , etc. They are a set of cold-blooded scoundrels who persecute the prisoners bo they men or women , in every con ceivable way. The gang being driven into the yard which is little bettor than a hog-pen the kcepcis quickly search the prisoners for any little article of food or money that com- pasionate peasants passing them on the road may have slipped into their hands. These are confiscated by the keepers for their own benefit , and then the prisoners are driven into the awful otap. "This interior is simply n Inrge room provided with narrow boards nailed against the wall ono above another , with no floor but the earth , littered with straw in thn center or ono corner , The narrow boards are to sleep on , but the sere and bruised , nnd often half-frozen prisoners are unable to climb moro than to the second tier of bunks' , nnd so the rest lie on the cnrth floor. The food given thorn is generally bread and water never meat nnd sometimes a wenk soup mndo of buckwheat boiled in water. But how nutritious this food is can be learned when it is icmcm- bcred that the jailers nro allowed only thrco cents n day for the support of the prisoners , and from this sum they steal a heavy porconta''o. 1 have known this stealing , when it had gone to great lengths , to bo mndo good by simply not feeding the prisoners that night , sending thorn on marked 'fed and watered * to the next station , tho. proceeds of the steal being divided by the jailors. When the cold , unhappy crowd are at last loft to themselves in the largo room of the etap , they usual ly Ho down nt once like tired cattle. They wait for icy shoos to thaw out , that the linen bandages mny bo re moved from wet nnd raw blistered feet nnd numbed tinkles may bo chafed , But this must be quickly done or the feet will so swell that shoes cannot bo replaced again. At last night comes on and nil is daik in the prison room. " Onions nnd Gravy. Tu\a Slftlng . A rather scody looking custnmor came into n restaurant und said to the proprietor ; "What do you ask fornicoly cooked beefsteak , well done with onions/ / ' ' "Twenty-live cents. " "And the gravy/ / ' "Oh , wo don't charge anything for the gravy. " "You don't ? That's liberal. How much do you charge for Ihebiond ? " "Wo throw in the bread. " "Is it good bread ? " "It is.r "So you throw in bread and gravy ? " "Certainly. " "Then bring me some broad and gravy. It's not healthy to eat meat Cured of Drinking , "A young friend of mine was cured of an insatiable thirst for liquor , which had so prostrated him that ho was unable to do any business. Ho was entirely cured by the use of Hop Bitters. It allayed nil that burning thirst ; took uway the appetite for liquor ; made his nerves steady , and ho has remained n sober and steady man for more than two years , and lias no desire to return to his cups ; I know u number of others that have boon cured oi drinking by it.
