At the lusl bonrd of trade mooting the matter cuinu up , but no decisive action \vas taken. Thu plan proposed is for a committee- the Council Bluffs board to prubcnt the mutter to the Omalm board and secure- co operation of action. Many citizens say that n proposition to build a free bridge would carry in Council Bluffs II presenteJ to the voters in n piopor manner , These predictions nro acparuntly based on the belief thul Council Dluflu would bo allied on to pay only one-half ot thecobt of ihoslruciuie. The estimates of the cost run fiom W5H.OOO to $350,000. These agitating Iho move say that Iho right of way could bo leased and some motor or street car company for u sufllclcnt nnr.i'iil rental to puy the repairs , woucnnd tear , and u purl of the interest on the bonds , Some of those Interested In the elcotrlo light , favor the citY-purchaFintr the Broad , way bridge. It is Md ( by them that the Broadway bridge can bo bought lor the cost of construction. The objection raised by others ugalnst this scemu 1s that Iho olectrio line would wunt to reserve the solo right of way , thus shutting out all competition , so Jar s notor or street car lines are concerned. H Is clulmou again that the cleotrlo line \\ouldbo willing to make u live cent rale be tween the two cities. It the city would buy tbo bridge , und lot the company use U freely as it uses any other portion of a street , Such In brief u tlio vuricd tulu hoard In business circles , boiled dowh and shorn of the ninny details. The feeling In fnvor of a free bridge is ( U dently growing , und some formal uutlon Will doubtless soon bo taken. INTEREST ON SCHOOL FUND , The Board of Education Willing to Have the Banks Take It. CHEAPER ELECTRIC LIGHT NOW. Reunion nt the Crocker Ilrlcndc Arranging the Court Terms The Shooter nt the SI I ut Per sonal Mnntlon. Tlio School Hoard Op ese At an adjourned regular meeting ol the school bonrd , Hold Monday OVOIIIIIK , the fol lowing resolution was presented by Mr. Schocntgon : Whereas , Tlio Independent district of Council Bluffs , la. , has noS licrotoforo pro vided nny compensation ( or Its treasurer , but has asked hlin to discharge onorotis nnd responsible duties without p.iy , and the re sult Is Iho only rccoinnonso for taking the ofll co Is a mutter of selecting a favorite bank as a depository of the funds : nnd , Whereas , The taxpayers and people of the district have an average account of § 3"i,000 to $10,000 on deposit , on which no Interest Is earned and the prollts of which go not to the said trrusurer , nor to the district , but into the private collars of such bank. There fore , bo It Hesolved , That the salary of the treasurer of the Independent school district of Coun cil Bluffs be , and the tmtno Is hereby fixed at $ , " 00 per nnnuro. 12. Tlint the treasurer bo nnd is hereby In structed nnd required to submit at a mooting to bo specially culled by the president fortho 23d day of tin ) present month at the regular hour of 8 p. m. , bids from the various banks of Council Bluffs , showing the rate per- centum of interest per nniiuni , said banks nroydllnir to pay on the dally balances of school funds and to tender with said bid or bids their bond with sureties for double the highest amount they are willing to receive on these terms. That the bond of said treasurer bo nnd it is lieroby llxcd In tlio sum of $75,000. Mr. Schoontgon , in support of tils resolu tion , said there was not sufllclput Importance attached to the trcnsui-crshlp by the people nt large. It seemed that ordinarily the only ( luesliou asked was "What bank does the candidate for treasurer deposit tul" No at tention is paid to his qualifications for the position. "When Mr. Hunter and myself were candidates the question was frequently nsitcd 'what bank do they deposit uij1 And when the learned , the cry was raised by some , 'don't ' elect , them , they de posit In Officer & Puspy's bink,1 or such and such u bank. To forever put a stop tu that sort of questions I offer this resolution. It will bring Into our school treasury annu ally $ -J.r > 00 , or $ .2,000 over and above the salary of the treasurer. The taxpayer should receive this benefit. For live long years one bank bus hud the benefit of this fund equal to $10,000 in interest nearly enough to build the proposed new school house in the west ern part of the pity. I tun in favor of giving the treasurer n fnir compensation for his services , but I believe he should bo treasurer In fact instead of some bank or bankers. This board is a committee to look after the interests of the people of the school district , and we should disehargo our duties faith fully. This board is composed of six demo crats , and we claim to bo reformers , ' and wu snould make good tills claim by saving this money to the taxpayers. I submit this resolution now for your consideration. " A lonir and oppressive silence followed , each member appaienlly wailing for some one else to break the ice of opposition. Fin ally Mr. Lawson arose and denied the asser tion of Mr. Schocntgen that the only issue in school elections was the question of where the candidate deposited or which bank ho favored. Ho said ho was not asked that question when lip was elected , and he heard It first when Mr. Schuontgcn was a candi date. Lawson seemed to bo under the im pression that Schoontgon's remarks wore di rected principally to him , and ho therefore arose to deny the statement. Ho stated that ho would oppose the adoption of the resolu tion. tion..Member .Member Ulaxslm said ho had never been spoken to bv any banker concerning where ho deposited : In fact ho had no money to deposit - posit , and neither was he under any obliga tions to the bunker. As to the resolution , however , he fulled to state whether lie was in favor or against its adoption. Member Huptor said he was taken by sur prise and was not prepared to vote for such a resolution at that time. Ho approved the amount cf the bond required of the treasurer , but did not believe the board had the right to dictate to the treasurer what bank ho should deposits the school funds in. There fore ho could not support the resolution , as he now looked at the matter. President Stuart didn t believe there was any provision in the law allowing tlio board to control the funds after they passed into the treasurer's hands. Ho believed that tbo treasurer had a right to do as ho pleased with the school funds , so long as they were ready to pay over on demand of the board. Ho could not favor the resolution , ho said , though personally ho belinred it was right , nnd that tbo legislature should enact a law giving school boards the power to place school funds in such a way as to derive in terest from thorn , but until such n law was enacted ho felt ho would have to oppose such n resolution as had been presented by Mr. Schoentgen The matter was then dropped , all seem ingly being ittixious to get away from tbo subject with all possible tiaste. The "reform" idea did not prove infec tious , ami nouu of tlio board would second the resolution , The last clause , relating to the treasurer's bond , was passed , however , nnd the bonrd proceeded to elect a treasurer , An informal ballot resulted , Keller 3 , Bow man 1 , Perotfoy 1 , br.hoontgon 1. The formal ballot gave Pcrecny 4 , Bowman 1 , Keller 1 , mid the present treasurer was declared re- elected.

An era of cheaper elcctrlo lighting has diiwmut up.m Council BlutTs , und tlio effect will bo fell after the middle ol December , at which time the present contract with the Council Bluffs Eloctrlo Light and Power company expires. As stated in yesterday's report of the council proceedings of Monday evening , a contract for lighting the city for flvo years was awarded to the Sparry Eleo- tria company , of Chicago , und yesterday morning tlio mayor and a committee of council met the representative of that com pany , Mr. Charles E. Gregory , and their at torney , George F. Wright , at the city building , whuro a contract wan drawn up and signed. This contract provides that the company ahull furnish severity-live are lights , of 2,00o candle rawer each , fur $100 per year for each light. This was the lowest bid received , the Council Bluffs Gas company offering to furn ish the sumo light at $10 } ; the iiowly organ ized Council Bluffs Gin and Electric Light company ( of Chicago ) , 1126 , while the pres ent company > vus the highest bidder , $153 , as compared with the $310 , which they are re ceiving under the present contract. It will bo f > qen that the now rates are considerably loss than half what they now are , which will bo quite uu item , The contract us 'granted to the Sperry company duos not provida for the * 100 rate for the full term of their con tract for live years , but stipulates tliat it ibull be f 100 tbo urat year , J'J3 the second , 803 the third , KM the fourth and $93 the Afth. The offer of the company wi to continue this reduction at the same rate if a contract wns Issued for ten yours , making the prlco for the tenth year f$2 per light , but the council preferred to lot a now contract at the end of flvo yearn. A few parties were Inclined to do the usual amount of kicking yesterday , bocmiso the contract was not awarded to the old company , which has n largo nnd llnoly equipped plant hero. The simple reason why the council did not do It , Is because they could save $ 'JJ,2oO on the flvo year's contract by placing It where they did. Mr. Thomas , ofllcar of the present com- Enny , was soon yesterday , and naked ns to is plans. Said ho : "Wo'shall continue to operate ns before. It was to bo supposed that the Sperry folks would boat us , us that is a nmnufaciuringcompnny and make their own machinery , while wo have to pay rcg- lar rates for ours. They hnvo boston us on the city lighting and wo will hnvo to meet their prices for lighting stores nnd busi ness houses. Of course , they can cut the prices for that so low that wo can not compote pete with them , which will drive us out of the market , so far as are lighting is con cerned , us wo would rather lot our dynamos stand still than run them ot n loss. Wo will continue our Incandescent plant , ns the now compunj will not put In a plant ot this kind. " In an Interview with Mr , Grocery , of the now company' thatgontlomansaid , "Wo will got to work ns soon as wa can p.ot our mate rial here , and bo ready to start uu before the present contract with Urn old company ex pires. Wa hope to furnish llrst-oluss light , und will forfeit $1,000 , if wo do not give a bet ter Hunt than the city has nt present. All of our lights will bo 2,000 nominal candle power. You must understand that all lights of 2,000 nominal candle power tare not of 2,000 actual candle power , and It requires very delicate apparatus to lost them , but our lights will coma nearer to it than these now used in tlio city. Wo claim that our Improved automatic ma chines will give a steadier light with less nolso than nny make on the market. Our automatic attachment is on the dynamo , so that If there Is any change in the power , such as would bo occasioned by the slipping of u belt , or in the lamp or upon the circuit , the lights do not show It , ns the change moves n regulator that causes the brushes to take up either moro or less electricity , so ns to keep the current the same. Wo offer to put n sat of our machinery In a room with the Thomp son-Houston , which you hnvo bore , and if ours does not glvu a bettor , steadier light with loss noise , less sparkling nt the brushes , unit docs not run in a moro satisfactory manner in every way , wo will forfeit our machinery , and in case the Thomson-Houston folks fall , we will not nsk them to forfeit their machinery , so that It will not cost them anything in case they lose. Wo would not make this offer unless wo know Unit we had the host system , * und if we did not mean to put in a plant hero that would como up to nil requirements , we would not offer to nmpcremetor in any pub- he oftlco or place that the council may desig nate , so that anyone may see at any time just what our current Is and how perfectly our machine ! ) and lights are working. Wo will put In ono of the finest plants In west , to cost about $4'J,003 , and wo will furnish the best and cheapest light that you tiuvo over had in your city. Incandescent light ) Yes , sir , we will put in mi incan descent plant , nnd huvo it ready to operate as soon as the other. What our rates will bo I cannot say , as that will depend upon how long our circuits ore , and how many con sumers wo can get. Your present rates for this kind of light , however , are very reason able , being ono-tlflh of n cent per hour ' cheaper than in Chicago ; that is , if'ns I un derstand , your present rate is n cent an hour for sixteen candle power light. Of course , your meter system is somownat different from that. If wo could got enough subscribers wo could cut rates on incandes cent lights ; but I would not think that you could do much betlcr in that resoect. There is no use talking about incandescent lights being cheaper than gas at its usual price , still there urc those who prefer the electric light if the price is about the same , and wo will run u plant us well as furnish power for electric motors. We will not run our in candescent plant all day , lor this city would not pay for doing it. but wo will make provi sions to run on all dark , cloudy or foggy days. Wo will give u perfect servicous nearly as it Is possible to have it" "Do you put in this plant for the purpose of organizing a local company to take it oil your hands ) " "No sir , not by n long shot. Wo wi'l sell our plant if any company wants to pay our price , otherwise not. The last franchise ranted by your council was to a comnany which intended to do that very thing. They failed to organize tnp company , and their plant was not put in. Our company has enough capital to carry those plants , und if outsiders do not want them , members ot the company will take them in. " Mr. Gregory was then called away to take the morning train for the south , but before going referred to his company's plant , at Ot- tuuiwa , and also in Chicago , where they furnish 500 are lights. The members of the council express thcin- selues as satisfied witli the contract , and say that if the now plant is not what the contract calls for the money will not bo paid , us the city will not pay for what it does not got. Iho new company purchases the towers , and these on Broadway will bo relocated nnd placed in the residence portion , while the business streets will bo illuminated with low lights at the street intersections.
