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.

"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. "

Conductor Crumby , of tbo elcctrio motor
line , mot with a painful accident Monday
evening , and will bo laid up for some time in
consequence. 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.

The city council bold a private caucus or

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

trudo will bring disappointment to moro

are very close-mouthed about the matter at

will all orove willing to air tbolr views.

LINCOLN BUHEAD OFTmsUMMU O
1020 P STIIEKT ,
.LINCOLN. 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.
