The demand for reform in the marshal's
department us expressed In the resolutions
adopted at the citizens' convention , U in n
fair way to bo complied with. Alderman
Everett has not receded n step from the po
sition taken some tima ago , when ho first
introduced n resolution cutting down the
salary of the city marshal nnd allowing hint
ll.COOn year In lieu of all fees. The reso
lution was snowed under , but ho resurrected
It nna again presented it just before the old
council ceased to oxUt. At that time , how
ever , the now marshal had been elected , nnd
it was found that such a resolution could
not co Into effect during his term of ofllco.
It is'stated that there Is n way of saving the
city belwecn ? ? ,000 nnd $3.000 u year In this
direction , nnd Alderman Everett proposes to
do It. If it Is a possible thlnj/ . The plan sug
gested Is to deprive the marshal of fees tn
ciiscs in which lie docs not make the arrest.
Under iho present system , ho receives a fee
' arrest made by niem-
of S'J.tO for every any
bi-r of the police department or of iho mar
shal' * force , provided the line or n part of It
Is paid. It is claimed that this' is unjust ,
nnd Ihat the marshal is not entitled lo the
money. Ho knows nothinc about tno cnso
until the arrest Is made , the man is in jail
and the churgu is mado. Ilo then proceeds
to Illoan Information nnd dr.iws5J.10 for it.
As there nro on nn average live arrosls per
dav , Iho nurshnl's fees from this sourea
nlonn amount lo n very respectable sum.
Of these arrcslcd only a liltlo over ono-
half pay tholr fines , BO that the foes in Iheso
cases Is" reduced to n trllle ever S2.0JO a year ,
which would give the marshal a very com
fortable salary if he did nothing but sit Ic
the olllce , Illo informations and draw his 'ees
for the same. It is thought that by passing
an ordinance turning these fees Into the city
treasury the marshal's salary will bo ro-
dured to about the proper llguro , inasmuch
ns he Is npw receiving between ? J,5yo ind
? 4,00l ) a year. Alderman Everett is work
ing on the mutter , nnd If ho finds no coullicl-
ing clause in the law will introduce an ordl
nanco to this effect. '
It is nlso desired to incroasi the salary of
the ehier of policj to SI.50J and this will
probably bo done. Ho now receives but $10
n month moro than Iho patrolmen and it Is
ariruud that there should bo moro of a differ
ence. it is claimed that a man who -fe cana-
nblo of properly tilling the place Is worth
S1.5RO n year and ns It Is believed that such a
man has now been appointed it is in order to
increase the salary.

An AntiGatiililinOrdinance. .
Cholrman Evans of the ux2culiva commit
tee of the anti-gambling association is preparing -
paring nn ordinance with the assistance of
City Attorney Stewart which li intended to
1111 a long fell want , and will bo of material
assistance in cinching the Ramblers. At
present there Is no law or ordinance pro
viding for the dostrustl'in of gambling de
vices , and the proposed ordinance will obvi
ate this dldl'iulty. The statutes provide that
' the city council shall have the power to au
thorise the destruction of nil instruments
and devices used for the purpose of gamins , "
but up to the present tlmo no ordinance has
been passed authorizing such destruction in
this city.
It Is stated that the new ordinance will be
n scorcher and that it will give every police
man tlio right to seize any Rumbling devices
whenever nnd wherever found. It will also
confer powers on the police magistrate- that
ho docs not now hold. At present the law
covers thu gambler but does not affect any
thing else. It Is Intended that und or the
now ordinance frequent raids will irmko it
very expensive for the proprietor of a
gambling house. It will not bo necessary to
secure evidence against the gamblers , such
an is now necessary in order to convict them
of gambling , as tha Uniting of the contraband
eoods will DO sulltciont evidence in itself.
The ordinance will bo submitted at the nnxt
meeting of the council on Tuesday afternoon.

.linoy'a Vindication.
The ca o against Alderman Pat Lnoy , m
the district court , was a Hash in the pan.
The proieoutlon attempted to prove that at
tbe driving park last summer , during the
flrcmon'fl tournament , nil sorts of gambling
was ( jolng on , nna skin -games In progress ,
nnd that Alderman Lnuy n * ono of these In
charge of the grounds failed to put n stop to
them. The evidence was very plain as to
there being any number of ddvlcca for
tempting fools nnd their money to part com
pany , The difficulty was to establish the
responsibility for these fro3-nnd-ony dolngi.
A local organlzAtion wiw formoJ for MUlng
the necessary money for holding the stale
tournament , propqrlng the grounds , dccorn-
titlntr , etc. , for tlio event. Mr. Lacy's name
appeared as the president of such associa
tion , but utthough It was formally officered ,
it appeared to bo really n temporary com
mittee of citizens bent on securing the hold *
ing of the tournament hero , nnd in providing
for its success. There was no proof that
Air. Lacy was nn oyo-wltnpss to the
Dwindling games , or that ho was concerned
iu granting them permits , or that ho was
controlling the grounds. Mr. Lacy was very
nctlvo tn the tournament , but mainly in look
ing after the llromen's races and assisting
tha state organisation.
A motion was made to have the case taken
away from the Jury , but Judge Thornoll
concluded to let the twelve In the box
assume thn responsibility. It took about
four minutes for the twolva to roll this
responsibility oft their shoulders by n ver
dict of not guilty.
Then n similar case was called against
Frank Guanolla , who was city innrsinil nt
the time. Judge Thornoll speedily directed
thu jury to bring tn n verdict ot aninlttal ,
A similar case against Policeman Dave
Thomas was continued until next term.

They Want a Street Swoonpr.
The city council is considering the advisa
bility of purchasing n street sweeper , and it
is very probiblo that ono or moro of these
much-needed machines will ba purchased
this spring , as nearly all the alderman have
cxnrcssed themselves in favor of it. The
principal question is as to how the sweeping
should bo done whether lot by contract or
done by the city. The majority are tn favor
of having the city do the work , believing
that it can be done more cheauly in this way.
It is argued that hero is un opportunity to
work the vags lo great advantage. Another
plan U to have the work done by the lire de
partment , but this is not very warmly sup
ported.
In the first place the work should bo 'done
nt nigut , which would seriously interfere
with Iho lire department work , and further-
moral ! Is stated that it would not be wise to
insist on delegating this work to the firemen ,
ns they are on duty twenty-four hours a day ,
and it would be unreasonable to expect them
to lurn out promptly to fires during the day
if they were worked nil night sweeping the
streels , or vice versa. It Is believed that a
fireman's lifo is hard enough if ho faithfully
attends to the duties of his position , without
requiring him to do another day's work
every twenty-four hours in addition , and the
same is true of tbo horses in tbo department.
If the city does the work the vugs could
bo utilized as sbovclers In removing- the
sweepings , but It would bo necessary to pay
the other men nnd teams required.
In Omaha the work Is lot by contract and
the cost charged up to the owners
of the property abutting on the
streets swept. Such of the aldermen , ns
hnvo expressed themselves on the subject
nro opposed to the plan , as they believe the
.city should pay for the work. They hold
that the property on paved streets is taxed
heavily enough to-pay for liubllo improve
ments made , including grading , paving , sew
erage and curbing , nnd that the sweeping
should bo placed lu tbo same category as the
street lights nnd general street work.

Nnw YOIIK , March 21. [ Special Telegram
to THE BUB. ] H. G. Dunn & Co.'s ' Weekly
Hovlewof 'Irado says :
The volume of business is larger than in
any previous year at this season. The
tonnage shipped eastward by rail from Chl-
cugo continues larger than over. The rail
road earnings thus far ropcrted for March
exceed those of any previous jeor.
Bank clearings at Now York show it gain
over last year of 3f : per cent , nt Boston ,
Philadelphia ana Chicago 13 per cent , and at
all other cities 11 nor cent.
All the olgns prove that actual shrinkage
of conanm.nloti Is confined to n few lines ,
principally those affected directly by the ab
sence of winter , but that In other branches
consumption Is larger than nt any former
time. In BOUIO cases , as In iron , the only
only difficulty or danger comes from the fact
that n consumption , clearly iho largest over
known , is probably surn.used by a prod no
tion far beyond all records.
Heports from every part of Iho country
represent tr.ulo as fairly satisfactory ,
though signs of dullness scorn to Increase at
Philadelphia , where the spurt of the winter
has set bark the spring trado.
Chicago has us usual a largo increase over
last year in gram nnd beef products nnd
Bomo Incrcaso in dry goods , with good sales
of shoos and bettor collections In bolh
trades. St. Louis notes n fairly nctivo trade
nnd satisfactory collodions. New Orleans
reporls planting much Interrupted by Hoods ,
but the danger Is abating and business Is
fair. Cleveland. Denver and Omaha report
improvement , and other western cities u
fairly nntisfaetory trade , though at
several collections are tardy , but nt
Pittsburg depression In the ere uml nteol
trade and In glass , duo to the extravagant
cost of materials , causes much disappoint
ment. Those who labored sn long to con
vince themselves that prices of iron nnd its
its products must nso in spite of the unprec-
dent output now admit that prices are
lower nnd the market unselllcd and close on
to demoralization. The offers of southern
iron nro the obvious cause No. 1 at $18Uo
hero and gray forgo nt $10.50. Lower
prices by 25 to 00 cents per ton are made at
Pittsburg , With $ l lower for rails , $ J lower
for looms and billets , und manufaclurcd
iron Is weaker. < Aho fact of grcalcst signifi
cance repeatedly noted hero has been the
slackening in the demand for- finished pro
ducts , and some concessions are now made
in eastern markets on rails for billets. There
are few sellers and no buyers , and the bar
mills are running short of orders. In gen
eral , consumption is larger than a year ago ,
but clearly shows u reaction from the great
rush of last fall.f
In dry goods a prevailing feature is the
extreme caution of [ buyers , except from the
south , whluh docs a larger business than
ever , but the state at trade on the whole is
not encouraciug.
Another Important failure comes at a tlmo
when bunks had begun to seek commercial
paper more freely. .
Importers are rushing in goods in ancticl-
pation of a change of tariff , but in dress
goods it is between two seasons. In men's
woolens trade is slighted , ami many mills
are not supplied with orders , nnd In cation * ,
while sales are fair1 in volume , the present
high price of material affects oroiits. Co't-
ton has oeon steady , receipts fulling 33,000
bales and exports ao,000 below last year for
the same week. JVool is dull and weaker ,
the very best Ohio 'flecco ' commanding only
33 < ra.13 > cents at Uostod , and delaines being
neglcclod. Trade in brcadsiuffs has been
principally speculative , wjth an advance of 2
cents on wheat and % cant on corn und oats ,
pork also advancing naif a dollar. Coffee is
weaker on large estimates of yield , and
sugar Is dull with no activity in rctlninc ,
the Sprockets supply still underselling that
of the trust.
The monetary situation has changed for
the botlor more distinctly than any -other ,
the treasury having found moans to pay out
during the week S100.00J more than it has
