The city councirfullcd to agree on n slate of appointees for the offices of city clerk , city physician , poll tax collector , street com mlssloncr. and chief of the fire department , at a caucus Mondny evening , so they decided to let the matter go over another week , pre ferring to do this ruthor than have a battle .In the council chamber bcforo the eyes of the vulgar crowd. It was a sad disappoint ment to a numbnr of candidates who thought they had n sure slnch on ponio of the unices , but it is quite probable that their crlof , was not as poignant ns it will bo after the now ofllcors are finally elected. The aspirants stood on the street corners until a loto hour Monday night , hoping that the council would dispose of Its largo crist of regular business and take up the matter of appointments , but the alder men ordained otherwise. Speculation is rife as to what the result will be. but no onoseomsto have any reliable authority on which to hazard oven a guess. Of course there nro a certain number who profess to know a thing or two , but if they do they are unwilling to tell what It Is , and the puollc generally Is as much In the dork ns ever. The aldermen profess to know ab solutely nothing and refuse to talk on the subject. It is quite frcoly intimated that there will bo n icpetltion of the scenes of a year ago , and the deadlock of four weeks which then resulted is well remembered. It is quite certain that thcro is a split In the council ns It stands at present , and the po sition Is reported us follows on the vote for city clerk : AVngnor 3 , Troutman 'J , uncer tain 1. ft is stated that three of the members wore pledged to Huntington for clerk , but it is claimed that they have sold him for Wagner. Alderman Everett's fnvorito is not known. It is predicted that they will never agree and Squire Burke will hold over. Said the latter gentleman yesterday. "After I was elected. Mayor Chapman came to mo and said , 'Wo had a pretty hot time to get yon in , ' and it now seems us though they are having nn equally hot time to get mo out. However , I am ready to go whenever my successor Is appointed. " It is reported that t'uo candidates for the clerkship are working in pairs , and the plan is for the fortunate ono to make tits running mate his deputy. Franmnn and Swcaringon are pacing very xvcll in double harness , but Wagner and Whlttlesoy seem to be making a llttlo faster time , which is undoubtedly the result of longer campaigning and more thor ough training- Huntington seems to bo "in a pocket" behind the other two pairs , but ho innv pull out if ho secures a helper. For poll tax collector O. J. IJeckman , the present incumbent , is the only candidate in tbo Held , and it is conceded that ho could bo elected over any aspirant. Uogarding him a city oDIcial said yesterday : "Ho is tlio best poll tax collector wo over had , and ho col lects nil that It is possible to get. Ho turned in more money last year than was over turned over in any two years bo- forc , and ho must stav where ho is. " For street commissioner , John Phillips is pushing E. W. Avery to a close finish. Mr. Avery has done iiuicn to improve the streets of the city , but ho has several enemies who pull strong strings in the council , and bis chances of re-election are not as flattering as they might bo. City Physiciean Soybort will not bo np- uolntcd for another year without meeting some strong opposition. Ho is a candidate , and so is Dr. M. J. Bellinger , tbo brother of Alderman T. P. Bellinger. The law bars the alderman , but thcro is no handicap on the brother if the council is willing to let him In. Thcro will bo another hard fight for chief of the fire department. C. D. Walters is anxious for a rcappolntment , but ex- Chief Templeton bus just come in from pasture after running a year with his shoes off , and competent judges pronounce him in splendid condition. His wind is good , and barring accidents ho is regarded as a sure winner. Three of the six gentlemen in the judges' stand nro-strongly predisposed in his favor , and nothing short of a dispute over the time in tbo clerk's race will bring in Templeton as a trailer in the lire chief's dash.

"When is there to bo a workingmon's train put on the motor linol" The query is quite a common one , and yet no announcement is in ado that indicates the immediate prospect of such a desired accom modation. Why don't ' they do itj" remarks one of those who has been watching and waiting. "X should think it would pay the company big. There's no use of your talking to mo about living In Council Bluffs , for I would have to pay 10 cents in the morning and 10 cents at night , 30 cents a day. That amounts to ? 5.20 a month. It's ' too much , especially when I can got along with paying out half of that. Distance don't cut so much of a figure if I have to take a car anyway. I can go three or four miles out in Omaha for a nlcklo , and so I don't see much object In paying W or SO a month to go across to Coun cil Bluffs. Of course I can buy a lot In the Bluffs cheaper than I can in Oinnlm , and if I wanted to buy a homo it might pay mo. So long as Ji rent , though , I might as well stay where I nm. Ton cents is cheap enough if a follow only wants to go over ouco In a whllo , but for a regular diet it's a llttlo too riob. I suppose the company will fix commutation rates , or 5 cent trains morning and at night , by and b.v , but 1 want to sco them do it before - fore I ot myself tied up with promises to pay for a home in the Bluffs. No I'll wait. " An interesting rumor is going the rounds In connection with the matter of communica tion between the two cities. Since the elec- trlo motor line has started up It has given such nlcaslng crvlco that it has become tlio favorlto mode of going backwards ana for wards. While the motor cars are well pa tronized , tbo Union Pacific dummy train is comparatively deserted. Wore it not for the railway employes who use It the cars would look lonesome most of the time. The wagon portion of the Union Pacific Is also llttlo patronized , for the other wagon bridge Is so much easier to reach , and so much pleasanter to travel , The Union Paclllo is weary of the experiment , and is said to bo quite willing to lease the wagon paf t to any motor company who will use it. It is reported that some Omaha capitalists are considering the ad visability of establishing a motor line from Omaha across the Union Pacillu bridge , and running it up into the heart of tha city. Tbo success which has attended the electric line , and the satisfaction which the service gives , naturally IcadsTft the belief that such n line would nay. If it is established cheaper rates for daily travelers may follow , ns the result of competition. Have you soon the SCO baby carriage at Bracken's ? Ho has the llnest line ever bhown in the city. From an Oniclal Window. "Why don't you warm up these teamster * who abuse their horses so backing up to the rear of that building , " asked City Auditor Hammer yesterday of a BEE reporter. "It IB a sbaino tbo way they are allowed to go on , especially as It is right under the eaves of the city building , and with ear shot of the city , Jail. Some oue else Is probably partly to blame , for not fixing an easier way for the teams to get to the door. Coal teams come here , and the poor , half starved horses are frequently lashed and pounded for fully flf- tceu minutes before the load u backed up where It Is wanted. I wouldn't mind It once op twice , but It M ah every day" ociurrcnco , and the yelling and swearing is n llttlo to much for n steady diet. It scorns strange that the police qpij'tf top It , but they always pass right by and and p.iy no attention to it. It is nn outrage and n dfsgraco to the city to let the thing go on so. Just touch thorn up in the paper and perhaps they will stop it. If they don't ' wo will try something else that may prove a llttlo more effectual.

Judge Love arrived from Keokuk Mondny ovcnine , and was at his place on the bench in the United States court yesterday mornIng - Ing , promotly on time. The docket was called , and it was found that thcro wore very few civil cases to come up for trial this term. Thcro are but about half a dozen , and some of these nro already disposed of. The case of Kato Don ihuo vs the Chicago , Bur lington & Qulncy railway company was con tinued by agreement until next term. She is the administrator of the estate ot her husband , who was killed by the cars of this company in this city three years ago , and she sues for (10,000 damages. Bcrnara Bergman sues the Wuba h rail way company for $ -0,000 for the loss of both legs. Ho was engaged In helping to clear away a wreck in Missouri when the accident occurred. The case will bo tried to-day. E. H. Anderson is the plaintiff in a damage suit for $2IOOD ng.iinst the Chicago & North western company , but this case will not bo tried to-day , as the attorneys are engaged in the preceding case. C. W. Balderman , of Shelby county , pleaded guilty to violating the internal rev enue la.v and was fined $ 'J3 and costs. The circuit jurors were called , but only twenty-four answered to their names and a special vcniro of twelve was ordered drawn nt once , Clerk Hunter drew them last oven- pig. The grand jury was onpanollod and sot to work at 3 o'clock , when court adjourned until this morning. Judge Shiras did not ar rive yesterday morning from his homo in Dubuquc , bur will bo on hand this morning , and two cases will bo put on trial , Judge Shiras occupying the small room on the cast side of the building on tbo second floor.

His tr.iin had arrived at tbo cast end of the line and switched around for the west , run. Crumby was making the con nections of the electric light wire between the two cars , having neglected to lirst muko connections with the "trailer. " In this man ner ho received the full force of the current in his hand , which was burned to the bone , and rendered completely useless for the timo. The injured mumbor WAS dressed by a physi cian , and yesterday Crumby was able to bo on the street , but ho will not bo in condition to return to work for several weeks. The accident will servo as a reminder to the other conductors to make connections in their proper order. It is demonstrated that there is suflicient strength to tha current to irmko things very unpleasant , oven though it is not fatal. Personal Paragraphs. Mr. H. Friedman loft Sunday for tUo cast , to purchase a flue lot of millinery. J. J. Malownoy and daughter , of Hebron , Neb. , arrived in the city yesterday and will remain about a week.

The city council bold a private caucus or committee meeting , as they pleased to term it , late yesterday afternoon for the purpo'so of agreeing upon a list of candidates to fill the city appointive offices city clerk , city physician , poll-tux collector , street commis sioner and chief of flro department. They found , however , that they had a much bigger job on their hands than they anticipated , and that tbo time at their disposal was altogether too short to accomplish the task. They accordingly postponed the matter until some future time , and decided not to ullompt to appoint the ofllcers at the meeting last evening. The matter will now como up at the next meeting. Speculation is rife aa to what the result will bo. A hard light will bo made to retain 'Squire ' Burke for the clerkship , afld the general opinion seems to bo that the effort will prove successful. There are thoui wlngpredlct a repotftiou of the long and bitter light of last year , with the same resnlt. It. Is certain that the council is evenly , divided on thn majority of the onlcos , uud appearances Indicate that a general dead lock will follow , in which case tbo Inevitable trudo will bring disappointment to moro than ono sanguine aspirant. The aldermen are very close-mouthed about the matter at present , but if tbo fight becomes bitter they will all orove willing to air tbolr views.

March ca I There have boon a number of very peculiar deals In politidal circles during the past few days , if current rumors prove to bo truo. It is given out that Ncsbltt gave way to Baker for United States district attorney upon assurance from the "bosses" that ho should have the North Platte land oftlco. The ambitious Lindsay , it Is learned , was satisfied by pledges that the McCook land ofllco should fall his way , whllo Cornell Is to manipulate matters nt the Vnlonllno land ofllco. This is the slate now unquestionably In the hands of the great moguls , and It it goes through n number of the boys nro loft out In the dreary cold. The chances of Johnny Majors for the McCook ofllco have been considered fairly good , notwithstanding the fact that ho has boon opposed by Leo Hubbard , who Is said to have a hnnkcrmtr for the privilege of handling Uncle Sam's shekels at that lively llttlo city near th o Re publican rlvor. But the old saying , " 1'horo is many a slip 'twixt the cup and the lip , " may yet como In piny. It comes to T'ic Bnn representative from reliable sources that Mr. JDakor still lauks considerable of having n corner on the nttorneyship , notwithstand ing ho Is said to have the support of tbo "delegation. " This , interpreted , means that the delegation have not all agreed. Lind say , however , expects to remove from Bea ver City to McCook as soon as ho can scttlo up his business at the old home. Ncsbltt will commence milking the teat without changing residence , and will doubtless con tinue to break broad under the old vine and fig tree. To this Cornell can say , "Ale too. " It would seem that these ambitious states men had an axe to grind when .they sought nomination and election to the state senate. Agnlii In the Tolls. Mary Bronnen was arrested again to-day for violating nn order of the district court. She is is evidently bent on making life n veritable hades for Jerry Harrington. ' She brolco Into Jerry's ' house , and persistently refused to leave nnd ho was forced to call the law to bis assistance. Sheriff Mcllck sent his deputy out and Mary is now in the toils for the third time , and for the same of- fcnso. The facts of tbo case are these , in a word : Jerry is the father of Mary's illegit- inato child , is quito well-to-do , whllo she is poor and destitute and has no place on earth to lay her head. Several persons conversant with all the circumstances sny that she is n lit subject for a poor house charge. Mary doubtless proved frail uuring nn unlucky hour of the past , but neighbors who pretend to know say that she has bccii , more sinned against than sinning. It sc'ciqs .that Harring ton is willing to support and maintain the child , but refuses to have1 anything to do with his old unlawful loyo. " 'Her friends have also discarded hor. Thin bears hard upon the poor woman , and in moments of desperation aho ilics to Jerry and demands the shelter and protection ot his name. This , as in the past , ho refuses , niUl the poor woman must again answer 'for ' violating tbo injunction of the court. ' * ( Unsafe Father and' Uunrdlnn , Pursuant to an order 'K court George Smith , quito well known in tins city , put on the market and yesterday soldi a piece of property , owned by his minor daughter , nnd for whoso benefit the proceeds of the sale were to have been used. Smith made the sale and couveyunco to Mr ; Henry Vcith , who gave him a chock for/9T5.75 ; / , the pur chase money in full. It is well to say , how ever , that Voith gave Smith the check after banking hours , But through the kindness of some friends ho was enabled to got it cashed. Instead of going homo as a father and guardian should have done , lie proceeded to "bowl up" and was soon as drunk as a lord , and this morning ho was taken to the police station in a helpless condition. Search revealed that bo still had (877.78 of the money on his person , and also that he had paid off a $50 note duo at some of the city banks- The sum of $47.97 , however , went to satisfy his appetite for strong drink , and it is fair to presume that the rest of his daughter's annuity will go the same way.
