How Oront Mlmln DIITor.
As nearly us the facts In Ilia case can bo
nscci Inincd , the caucus of the city council on
Monday nftcrnoon w.xs anything but a love
'cast. It Is strongly Intimntcil by parties
wild ought to know that the spirit of gentle
ness mid meekness was entirely wnntlnjr.
Although the session was secret , nnd out
siders were not allowed to witness the scene ,
none of the participants express an unwilling
ness to tnlk on the subject. Yet they nro
viilently. very warded as to wlmt they say ,
nnd do not ileslro to Imvo the happenings
made known. Certain It is that they wcro
nimble to nrrivo nt nny definite understand
ing in the matter of appointments for heads
of dcDitrtmunls , and that what some oC them
nro pleased to term "just n llttlo Informal
meeting to sco how the other fellows stood , "
revealed the fnct that the "other fellows"
stood very llrinly on both feet , precisely
where It wns hoped that there would bo noth
ing but vacancy.
It scums that what at first appeared to bo
merely a llttlo split in the council has devel
oped Into 11 huge , yawning chasm , and Indi
viduals on cither sldo nro not at all disposed
to give In , even if certain pledges by which
some of them nro flrmly bound could bo re
moved. It is understood that two of the
newly elected counciltncn bound themselves
to do so-and-so in event they were elected ,
nnd certain Interested cmnp followers , who
.helped . to boost them into office on that ac
count. arc now looking after them very
sharply to sco that those promises nro full-
Jlllod. The whole matter is said to hlngo on
the appointment of n city clerk , although the
council is said to bo equally divided as to a
chief of the lire department.
Although some of the aldermen nro ox-
ccodlncly wary of stating their choice for
appointee to cither of these ofllces. it Is
understood that Aldermen Weaver , Lacy and
Metcnlf nro steadfastly In favor of retaining
Squire Burke as city clerk , and that Alder
men Bellinger , Kncphcr nnd Waterman tire
firmly pronounced in their preference for
Robert Huntington. In the fight for chief of
the tire department , it is stated that Alder
man Bellinger is inclined to waver and is not
especially interested , though very decided In
the battle for city clerk. Friends of Walters
nnd Tcmploton each claim Bellinger is on
their side , but many think that he will try to
effect a trade , and If ho can secure a Walters
man to help him oust Squire Burke , will in
turn join the Walters sldo and bounce Tem-
pleton.
The postponement of those appointments
for a week gives ample time for work , nnd
there is no question but that much of it will
bo done.

said that he had heard nothing of the plan
until last Saturday , and that ho fixed the
price nt $15,000 , although that would bo sell
ing at u great sacrifice. He did not know
whether they would take it or not at that
price. It is understood , however , that out

efforts will bo successful.

Sioux CITV , In. , April . ' ( . [ Special Telo-
grain to the Bui : . ] Tlicro is no change in the
situation on the river. The gorge opposite
the mouth of the Sioux river still holds , al
though the ice is rotten. The water has
not receded and has not risen perceptibly at
Elk Point and Jefferson. It 1ms spread out
further on the low lands , nnd farmers nro re

The greatest damngo Is done along the line
of depression , northwesterly from Elk Point
to the Sioux river above the railroad bridge.
The water is very deep nnd flows
across the bottom with a powerful
cnncnt. It is this current which has
caused the great washout of the
railroad track of the Milwaukee company ,
Elk Point is completely isolated , but tele
grams received to-day by the mayor of Sioux
City say that no assistance there is needed ,
but advising relief for the low-lying districts.
The flood pouring into the Sioux river threat
ened to-day to cai ry out the railroad bridgo.
It has moved three feet by drift wood and
ice which has accumulated. A construction
train was sent out this mprningto tiy to open
the drift wood and save the bridge , The
gang hus woikcd all day , but without suc
cess. All freight of the Milwaukee is taken
euro of by the Umalm company , under an ar-
rani'oinent made to-day , and carried north to
