There has been a good deal of n llurr made over the alleged discovery of Judg Ford of this city that there wns an tin pealed law giving cities -in Iowa th right to regulate and license saloons Believing that ho was right in his claims nnd that this city could avail itself of tin opening to crowd through a license ordinance nanco , ho drew up such nn ordinance. I was presented to the city council , wh passed it to n second rending and thai I. referred it to the citv attorney. The con ' sidoratlon of the ordinance to this oxton I has caused this prohibition papers to do t vote much simco to uncalled for attack ] % on Council Blutl's as the seat of a rebel lion. lion.Tho The fact is that although the ordinanoi was introduced and given a preferenct there has been no general expectation t bore of its ever being passed or of it ever becoming effectual. As ono of thi aldermen remarked in response to i query , "I catiuot speak with certainty , o course , but my opinion is that it wil v never bo hoard of again. " The city at t torno.v hns prepared nn opinion to thi I ' effect that if the city wants to test th > question it cttn pass such nn ordinance Issue ono permit under it and then hav < it go into court. Ho is confident , how V ever , that the city has no such right ti ' license saloons as is claimed by Judg f - Ford. It not repealed in nny other wiv it is repealed by implication.

The City Attorney Takes No Stock In It An Unofficial Inspection or the ftlannwn Steamboats Work On Undo { tain's House. Paid Fop Drinking. . Yesterday was taken up in the district court in the hearing of the contempt case of George Itrown , the owner of the St. , otiis house , it being claimed that his ten ant , A. Doorlllnger , had violated the tern- > ornry injunction restraining the sale oi iquors in that building. On behalf of the prohibitionists the Informers were ilaccd upon the stand , and wore oxam- ncd and cross-examined fully. The two chief witnesses wcro Frank Hnrdv nnd W. E. Alexander. These two young men , regular country boys who had been em ployed heretofore ns farm hands , near Hancock , wcro employed nt $3 cnch per lay to gather up Information against the saloons. Their expenses were paid in ad dition to their wages. Ihoy went from saloon to saloon , in accordance with di rections given by the attorney , Mr. Jacob Sims , nnd in cnch place they pur chased beer or whisky , or both' , nnd afterwards they made memoranda ol the evidence thus gathered. Alexander confined his drinking chielly to whiskv , nnd Hardy did the beer drinking. In lomo places whisky was bought by the bottle , and after boitift tasted on the premises , was carried by them to Sims' ' ollico and there deposited for further use in evidence , The two men wcro positive as to the data thus gathered being cor rect , nnd had sworn to the facts in alll- davits. On the part of the defense Attorneys jnpp , Hnldeno and Mynster appeared , Colonel Sapp actively conducted the cross-examination , and made it very in teresting for the listeners , while the wit nesses were made to squirm greatly , Thev claimed to relv on their memories , refre hed by the reference to the mem oranda book. This book consisted ol conveniently arranged , printed forms , with blnnks to bo filled in by the inform era as they gathered the evidence. The witnesses were unable to remember what sort ot looking men sold them the liquors , nnd could not describe the places vor.v well. In fact they evidently relied on the memoranda which thev made al the time , nnd could recollect" little be yond what wns therein recorded. Curi ously enough they could not toll tlieii own handwriting except in two or three instances , and would not swear which one of the two made the entries in the book. An attempt wns made also tc break down the force of their evidence by the clnim that if they drank ns mud whisky and beer on the 5th of July ai they claimed to have done in making the round-up , they would have been toe drunk to know much of what they had been doing. They explained the mys tery of their keeping sober by saying thai whenever they got a chance thev cmptic ( out most of the liquid in their glasses sometimes spilling it on the tloor , some times spitting it out. Another witness of like kind wns in troduced , Chnrles Doran , who is fron Shelby , nnel who has been at work on r threshing machino. lie was employee in like manner , and gathered up a quan tity of evidence to show that the prohib ition law was being violated. The case will bo continued to-day , r.ni there is no Immediate prospect of : finish. An Unofficial Inspection. The Mnnawa disaster has naturall ; aroused suspicions that other bents upot that body of water have weaknessc : which ought to bo remedied. The recom mcndatlon of the coroner's jury that al the boats should bo inspected has buoi generally approved. It would have boot much more satisfactory to have had ut official inspection by some entirely dis interested party , but in the absence * o any such inspection one has been rnadi in accordance with an agreement among the boatmen themselves , who dosirei to have their steamers examined and limit placed upon their carrying capa < ity. The committee , so far as can k learned , consisted of fair-minded , con potent judges , and their report is give : for what it is worth , though it neceissnril lacks the weight of an olhclal certificate COUNCIL UI.UFFS. August U. To the Pul lie. In accordance with thorecoinmenilatio of the coroner's jury , sitting In Inquest upo the oodles ot the lamented young men wli lost their lives by the sinking of the steatnc Marmvra , the undersigned were appoiute a committee to make nn examination of tli steamers on the lake that are now enenped I carrying people to and from the beach. \ \ have this day made such an examination 1 the most careful and thorough manner an herewith report the result of our investing tion : We find by measurement the steamer Llttl Gem to be 81 feet lone ana G ! * feet bean Her height above water line with her ma clilnery , fuel and half of her load I 10 Inches. Her additional displacemer when full laden Is 3 Inches , leaving a spac ot 17 Inches between her gunwales and th water lino. Wo IInd she is well and sut stautlally made ot the best quality ot Itf-lnc pine with oak ribs sixteen Inches apart. He bottom Is composed of Itf-Inch clank , lappe and caulked. Her engine and boiler ar four-horse power , and are in good condition now , and as safe as any steam machinery , li the hands ot an ftxporlenced and competen engineer. She baa a steam syphon piiui and life preservers. We find the boat ha carried thirty-six people In ordinary gooi weather , but recommend that her load b limited to thirty passengers. The steamer Lady of the Lake we find t bo built on substantially the same plan a the foregoing vessel , with dimensions 88x feet at bottom , with clear depth of hold of 2 Inches and 10 Inches between her gun wale and the water line with hal her load on. Complete displacement wliei laden , estimated three tons ; draft lade 8 Inches. Wo find hull constructed c Inch pine lumber , with beveled and o.ikui caulked joints , with an additional hull c halt Inch planks laid on the exterior , wit plentiful amount of pitch and rosin beUveei Engine ana boiler now nnd of best nimlit and in the hands of a competent engineer lioat Is strongly made throughout and I safe with full load In any ordinary wenthei Life saving service very complete. Steai syphon pump Is provided to expel any wate that inlclit nnd Its war into hold by leak o otherwise , nnd eighteen cork-covered lit preservers are placed In convenient localltle where passengers could get them In cases o accldnet. Construction and manneemen shows it to be a safe boat. While slxty-tiv passengers have been carried at ono trip would recommend that her load be llmltei to thirty-live. The C. E. Mavne la a new screw steamer & feet by 7 feet 0 Inches , has a 33 Inch screv driven by 10 horse power engine. This Is regular marine boat , built by Charles I \Vlliard & Co. , Chicago. Her certlticat shows that she has passed United States go\ ernment Inspection , both as to hull and ma clilnery , and can ply on any of the lakes an rivers of the United States without furthe Inspection. Her management and machluer U In competent hands. Is provided wit three steam syphon pumps , twenty-four cor life presoryen , and hos and pump for nr service. Would recommend that her loa < oo not greater than tturtv. although she wl safely carry In good weather all who coul get aboard. We Inspected the steamer Nellie K. , Jus launched , and built for Vic Keller , ana tin her to be a tronitly built boat , U ) feet Ion nnd 10 foot beam ; hull composed of ont fourth Inch Indiana white oak , with a seams oakum , caulked and pitched. Her mi chine ry Is now and ot approved marine pa tern , and In competent hands. Her carryln capacity IB 150 In Rood weather , bat we woul recommend that not more than 100 pastengei be taken aboajtd at one Urn * . Her lite tatm Icvlcos are plentiful nnd of the best quality. We would further recommend that all ot the boatmen be required to provide , in ad dition to the lite-Ravine : appliances already on the boats , n further security In this re spect by n number of two Inch planks , four feet Ion * , with hand holes on the sides , that could bo rendlly grasped nnd held In case of a disaster , nnd used by people , who , In their excitement mleht nnt be nblo to properly use n life-preserver. These boards should bo constructed similar to those used on all river steamers , and placed In convenient po sitions. The foreeoln t opinions arc the result ot a very careful examination made for the safety of the public and are respectfully sub mitted. W. Sr.EAD , M. W. UAKKU , J. M. SC'ANLAN , _ Committee.

The copper work on the government building is comoletcd , and now there seems little to be done for a few weeks. Bids have been advertised for for the iron stairways , but those brought in wcro rejected , nnd the work will bo rcadvor- Used. The bids for the gas fitting nnd plumbinc have just been called for , and some time must elapse bcforo this con tract will be given. Hence there is a standstill practically , while the expense of maintaining a watchman , a , book keeper and other employes is kept up. It scorns that some ot these advertisements could hare been made some time ago , so that the work might now bo proceeding , but the policy seems to bff to wait until ono part of tno work is done , thr-n ad vertise for bids for anothr , nnd sit down nnd wait. At this rate it will be some moons yet before the government build ing is ready for occupancy. HOTELS WITH VLENTY of stairways.and rooms below the clouds arc at n premium this year. Our old friend Havncs of the United States , at Boston , seems to have these important matters as near perfec tion ns possible , the United States hotel has twelve stairways from the top to the street ; there nro no guest rooms above the fourth floor ; niEht watchmen patrol the house every thirty minutes ; alarm bells arc in every room with private wires connecting directly with the lire depart ment , nnd 500 water buckets and HOO Harden's grenades nro distributed throughout the house. Wo know of noth ing else in Boston or anywhere else , that can equal this for sntety. A SURE CURE OR NO PAY.
