one of bis circulars to the business men of
the city asking for information as to the
amount of business for the past year , but ttie
reply is of no assistance to the secretary ,
owitiK to the neglect of the writer to state

Last evening's ' concert In the opera house
wns not only of high merit , but of peculiar
interest. It gave an opportunity for Coun
cil HlulTs to enjoy Its own musical pro
ducts , Miss Ncally Stevens , the pianist ,
has 'mule this her home since girlhood , being
the daughter of Mr. S. S. Stevens , thu gen
eral agent of tbo Chicago .t Hock Ibliiml , at
this point. Mrs , Fanny Kellog-Uachert , who
assisted in the concert , giving several vocal
numbers , spent her girlhood hero , and hero
it was that as Fanny ICellogg she won her
llrst applauso. She has since won a national
reputation as a sweel singer , but nowhere is
there a more kindly reception ever awaiting
her than in this , Her old home. Last
evening was her first appearance In concert
here In many years.
Miss Stevens lias of late been away much
of the time , and her concert engagements in
various parts of the country will occupy her
time for the full season. It was fortunate
that oho could devote one cvcnlnir to her old
homo mid many friends. They evidently ap
preciated It. While her auditors were not in
clined to bo either cold or critical , yet they had
high expectations ; and It is as diflicult often
to meet the expectations of friends as to dis
arm the criticisms of strangers. Miss Slovens
fully met them. There was no shade of dis
appointment. All wcru charmed in listening
and enthusiastic in expressions of approval.

An evening paper states that the W. "W.
Cones' ordinance is the one under which the
Council Bluffs Gas company docs business.
This statement is erroneous , as the Cones'
ordinance was issued February 2 , 1MO , and
was repealed .March i0 ! , IhTO , when u veri
similar ordinance was passed in favor of A.
K. Swift nnd his associates , at which time
Hon. D. C. Bloomer was mayor and F. A.
Hurko city clerk. The Cones ordinance
specified that work on the new gas plant
must be commenced on or before May 1 , 1S ( > ! > .
and four miles of gas mains must be laid
before the 1st of December of the same
year.
year.No work was done , and the ordinance was
repealed.
The second ordidanco specilied that work
must bo commenced on or before May 1 , It70 ,
ami three miles of mains must be laid before
the 10th of December of that year. In ouch
case exclusive franchises were given for the
space of twenty years. The present gas
company took possession of the charter
shortly after work was commenced , and the
lirst bill p.ild by the city for gas was in
February , Ib71. The charter now in force ,
and under which the present company tlow
business , docs not expire until March ISO ,
IbUO , which is considerably latar than is sup
posed by the majority of the eitiyens.
Il is a singular fact that the Cones ordi
nance is the ono which appears in all the or
dinance books , as the only ono in force , and
the one passed a lilllo later does not appear
at all.
It is strange that the city should allow its
records to bo left in such an unprotected con
dition as at present. Many of the olu books
and papers are stored in a room on the see-
on ! Hoer of the city jail. They are liable to
bu burnt or stolen , nnd in fact they sire not
protected at all. It seems that arrangements
could be made with the county to sucuro
vault room in the courthouse. Some of these
old records are of no special value , but it is
diflicult to tell which of them will be needed
in the future. They should all be preserved.
The city needs a new building , with vault
rooms for records , but if it can not build ut
present , it should provide some temporary
place of safety for the records.

The Superior Court-
In the superior court yesterday Judge
Aylcsworth rendered a decision in the case
of McOco vs Saguln , involving the owner
ship of thirty lots in Hro\vn's ' sub , in the
western part of the city. Suit was brought
by the plaintiff to have certaia deeds bold by
the defendant cancelled , and Judgment was
rendered In favor of the plaintiff. The case
will probably be taken to a hirhcr court.
The case of I'atton vs Stadloman , involv
ing the lease of Ihe City livery barn on North
Main street , was then called up and argued
liy the attorneys , and taken under advise
ment by the court.
The writs of ccrtioran , nsnod forMynster ,

and notices ordered served on Justice
Walker , of Oakland , who will bo called to
this city to certify to the informations Hied
In his court and other proceedings in connec
tion with thu liquor cases brought up there.
Thu indications arc that the point taken by
thu law llrm above named were well taken ,
and it is quite probable that the cases will
have to bu tried nearer home. It is thought
that the cases already brought up are virtu
ally settled , and will bo dismissed an roon as
thu llnal hearing is had on thu ijucstion of

"RED JIM'S" ' STRANGE LIFE.
Is He In the Pay if t lit * Urltlsh Govern-
inent an an Informer ?
"Hod Jim" MeDermott , for nearly a
decade a notorious llgure in Brooklyn
politics , and \\lio tied to England in
188:1 : to escape the wrath of indignant
Irishmen who had obtained knowledge
of his treachery , is charged with "coach
ing" the witnesses of the prosecution
in the Parnell case. According to a
cablegram received yesterday , a wlt-
nes named Kdward Plannagan sought
to prove that Patrick Ford , O'Donovun
Kossa , Stephen Joseph Meany and the
Ancient Order of lliberans were , from
Ih7i ) , in close alliance and raising funds
for purchasing arms for Ireland. Flan-
nagan also charged that Mr. Sullivan ,
who conducted a saloon in Forty-second
street at that time , and who was one of
the conspirators , made his place thu
rendezvous for the radical Irishmen.
There the purchased arms were dis
tributed.
A number of prominent local Irish
men were scon yesterday , and with a
display of much indignation asserted
that no man by the name of Sullivan
running a saloon on the street desig
nated was ia any way conspicuous in the
"physical strength" movement. They
also said that Flannagau had
never been known in New York ,
and could not hnvo gained any
such information as that , given on
the trial except through MeDermott.
The latter ingratiated himself into the
confidence of the Fenian leaders in
18ri < ! , when he first came to this country ,
and retained conlidcntial relations with
tbo leaders in the progressive move
ment up to within u few years.
They claim that MeDermott , who
they say now lives en prince in a sub
urb of London on the subsidy awarded
him by the British government for his
treachery , is backing the prosecution
and drilling the witnesses. McDermoU ,
it will bo remembered , was shot at in
1883 while in a resort on Chambers
street , and immediately left for Lon
don.
don.A
A well-known Irishman consented to
give some inside facts relative to Me-
Dermott's career in this country and
abroad. Ho naitl : "Mi'Dermott , as
every Irishman in Brooklyn is aware ,
was a notorious republican and po
litical hosier under the regime of * A1'
Daggett , and while engaged in thii
way lie became connected with all the
various Irish organisations in that city ,
lln was for many years tlio secretary of
John O'Mahoney , the leader of the
Fenian movement , who held forth at
the MolTatt mansion in Seventeenth
street. "While receiving a substantial
salary from the organization , recent
events have demonstrated that ho was
continually betraying its secrets to the
British government. This he accom
plished through the agency of his fos
ter father , Stackpolo O'Brien , an at
torney in Ireland. In 1882 Me-
Dcrmott's porlidy was undeniably
established. Ho "betrayed tbo
dynamiters , Featherstono and others ,
several of whom have since died in Eng
lish prisons. MeDermott was at this time
arrested in Liverpool for the purpose
of hoodwinking the Irish people , and
the machinery of the courts of justice
was turned into a burlesque. Father
Nugent , the chaplain of the Liverpool
prison , although a government otllcial ,
when ho became convinced of McDor-
mott's treachery refused to allow him
in his presence. There can exist no
doubt of McDermott's disreputable con
nection with the government. Ono of
the British cabinet Sir
, Vernon-ITar-
court , I think , stated in the house of
commons that the price MeDormott de
manded before ho would unbosom him
self was 9,000. MeDermott is living
incognito. Ho is drilling all the wit
nesses and on his ' , creations" the bur
den of the prosecution rests. Ho would
hardly dare sot foot on American soil
again.
"In regard to ttio statement that | inns
had been shipped to Ireland about 18" ! ) ,
I will say , however , although I know
nothing of tlio matter , that a schooner
laden with ammunition and arms was
sci/.cd in thu harbor of Queenstown , in
1880. This was about the time of the
"scars" and the
dynamite particulars of
the capture mid the number of stands
of arms seized were greatly exagger
ated. I doubt very much whuther they
were sent from this country.
The delicious fragrance , refreshing
coolne. s and soft beauty imparted to tho'

President Ijiiicoln'H I/en CUHOH.
Schuylor Colfax , in Reminiscences of
Abraham Lincoln : No man clothed
with such vast power as President Lin
coln ever wielded it more tenderly and
more forbearingly. No man holding in
his hands the key of life and death ever
pardoned so many offenders and so
easily. There wore from time to time ,
of course , instances of cowaulico in the
army in the face of the enemy a crime
justly punishable by the laws of war
throughout the world with death. In
the earlier years of the war all the
death penalties of court martinis had to
be sent to the president , as commandor-
in-chiuf. for his approval. Whoa
.Tndgo Holt , the judge advocate general
of thu army laid the llrst case before
the president aiiQ explained it , ho re
plied : "Well , I will keep this a few
days until I have moro time to read the
testimony. " That seemed quito reason
able. "When thu judge explained the
next case , Mr. Lincoln Mild : "I must
put this by until I can settlu in my mind
whether this soldier can hotter servo'
the country dead than living. " To the
third , ho answered : "The general
commanding thu brigade is to bo hero in
a few days to consult with Stanton and
myself about military matters ; I will
wait until then , and talk tlio matter
over with him. "
Finally , thorp was a flagrant case of a
soldier , who , in the crisis of a battle ,
demoralized his regiment by his cow
ardice , throwing down his gun and hid
ing benind a friendly stump. When
tried for his cowardice there was no de
fence , The court martial in examining
his antecedents found that he had
neither father nor mother living , nor
wife nor child ; that ho was unfit to wear
the loyal uniform , and that ho was a
thief who stole continually from his
comrades. "Hero , " said Judge Holt , "is
a case that comes exactly within your
rcnuiroinonts. Ho docs not deny his
guilt ; ho will bettor servo the country
dead than living , as ho has no relations
to mourn him , and ho is not fit to bo in
the ranks of patriots , at any rate. " Mr.
Lincoln's refuge of excuse was all swept
away. Judge Holt expected , of courao ,
that ho would write "approved" on the
paper ; but the president , running his
long Jlngore through his hair , ag ho

the oiui of the railroad building season
of 188S , and the Indications are that the
mileage for the year wil1 bo above 8UX ( )
miles of now track. Up lo the 1st iiiet.
5,71)0 ) miles had been completed in the
United States. Altogether the showing
is very favorable , as it was feared the
general btagnation of business incident
to a presidential campaign would seri
ously interfere with this important
branch of our material progruou. Dur
ing the ton months ending with Octo
ber , 260 Hues made additions to their
trackage , and many of them are still
pushing the work of construction with
all possible energy.
The extensions have been greatest in
the far west , including the territories ,
and in the southern states. Among the
latter Georgia leads in miles of new
track , with Kentucky. South Carolina ,
Texas , Alabama , Tennessee , North
Carolina , Virginia , Florida , Louisiana ,
MiMii&falppi and Arkansas following in
the order named , these states being
credited with i,148 ! miles of the total.
The now trackage , howovcr , is fairly
