"Who will succeed Judge Carson on the
district bench ! " imiulred Tin : BII : : yesterday
of a republican leader of the Second ward
who is supposed to bo an encyclopedia on po
litical matters.
"Walter I. Smith , " was the positive reply.
"There is no question but that ho can have U
if ho wants it , and he has announced his will
ingness In that direction. Judges Deemer
and Thornell will both bo re-elected , Judge
Maey holds over , and Judge Smith will com
plete the judicial quartette on the district
bench. "
"Well , but what tire you going to do with
Judge Carson i"
"Oh. there will bo a congressional vacancy
this fall , and Judge Heed will not Lo n candi
date for re-oleetlon. "
"You don't think that Judge Carson will be
his successor , do you ! "
"I do think that very thing , and inv opinion
is based on very good grounds. "
"But It has been supposed that thcio was
no show whatever for a Potttiwattiunlu
county man in the congressional race this
fall ! "
"I thought so myself until recently , but I
liuvo had reason to change my mind. I still
believe that aside from Carson It will bo im
possible fora man from this countv to .secure
the nomination , but I think he stands fully as
good a chance as anybody who has been men
tioned In the district. Carson is a
very popular man all over the district ,
and numbers his friends by tlio hundred.
I understand that ho proposes to enter the
nice , and if ho does he will make It very entertaining
'
tertaining for seine of them. I believe 'ho is
the only man who can get a solid delegation
from this county , and that means a great
deal in the Ninth district convention , When
it comes to the light on the lloor of the con
vention , Carson will also have a very hcavv
hitcklng from outside , and will have much
wore than a Rood lighting chance. Of course ,
it Is Impossible to tell in advance just what a
convention will do , but 1 am siitislled that
Carson will make a very creditable showing.

"Oh , how I pity that poor fellow , " ex
claimed ono of the Broadway corner orna
ments yesterday afternoon as Patrolman San-
del passed along. "It was a downright shame
to punish him that way , Just because ho let a
couple of vugs get away. If they had only
given him a regular lay-off for a week or toil
days It would have liceu all right , but they
made him lay asldo his uniform without any
other restriction. That was a cruel , heartless
thing to do. It Is Just like taking away a
boy's Sunday pants when ho falily adores
them , simply because of some lit lionet of dis
obedience. I wouldn't have supposed the
chief of police could do such an unfeeling
thing. "

tit Work.
Alderman Smith , chairman of the commit
tee on police and health , was at the city
building yesterday looking over the bills rep
resenting the expenses of his department for
the past month. There was quite a stack of
bills and he settled himself very comfortably
for several hours' work , Ho examined them
very carefully and at the bottom of each ap
pended an ottlclal "O. 1C. " over his signa
ture , without which the bill could not V" al
lowed , Ho ut length came to the report of
the chief gf police , and hb eyes bulfod out
when he looked at It. The list of names sub
mitted wns a lonethy one , and It would seem
at the llrst glance that Council Bluffs had a
very need sized police Cow.
"What docs this menu I" demanded the
alderman from the Fourth ward. "Wo
limited the force to eighteen men , and here
are thlrty-ono nnmrs on this list who nro to
draw pay for jnillco work during ono month. "
It was explained to him that the numerous
changes made during the past few weeks ac
counted for the number or men , but that the
sl/o of 'the force had not been Increased and
the sum total of the pay roll had not been In
creased. Mr. Smith was still Inclined to be
.suspicious and glancing at the footing at the
bottom of the page , " * I.IN ) . < , " he muttered
under his brcntli , ami then setocd a pencil and
began to figure.
"Eighteen men at * 70 a month would bo
-I.Uin ! , and-y.K ) for the chief makes fla.)0.
Whovo does that extra $ l10 ! come In I"
"JJhl von count in the chief's clcrkl" In
quired Auditor Lange.
"Chief's clerk lw hanged. We never told
him he could have u clerk , " snorted the its-
form alderman. "Cary Is taking altogether
too many liberties , and will have to be called
down. 'Ht're ' la pay for two extra men on the
list somewhere , and this bill won't go
through. " .
"Tho mayor can put all the men on the
force that lie wants to , and wo will have to
pay 'em , " volunteeied Alderman Casper ,
chairman of the lire committee , who was
looking over .mother batch of bills hi the
auditor's oftlce.
"Don't you believe It. " replied Mr. Smith.
"Ho can pick the men but we have the say of
how many there .shall be. If It was as you
say , and wo didn't have any say-so at all , the
niiijoL' could put on more men than there are
on the Omaha force , and they could all draw
their pay. You're nwav off on that , and wo
mustn't let this 1)111 go through. Now then ,
when It Is read tonight you Just get up and
ask whether the chairman of the police com
mission knows anything about It , in id then I
will tell the council what's the matter with
Hannah. "
" ( let up and toll It without walling for
somebody else to Interfere. What do you
want to shoulder nil the responsibility off
on Home ono else for ! I will have
enough to attend to to look after
the lire dcp.iitment without mixing up In
what properly belongs to you. J want to
knuw what is going to be done about buying
a new hose wagon. If we don't have some
thing in that line f shall make a motion to
abandon the new Hie house on Lower Broad
way. Tlieie tire live men stationed there ,
and all they have is the old hook and ladder
truck and a lumber wagon. The wagon Is so
rickety that it is unsafe to drive out of a
walk , and the npp.u-.itus is , therefoie , use
less. H don't do the city any good , and there
is no need of paving out money for keeping
It up. "
" \Voouglittoha\pa hose wagon , and no
mistake , " admitted the representative of the
ancient and time honoicd Smith family.
'I am in favor of buying the one that is now
on exhibition here , unless we can get one at
homo that will bo Just as good nml for the
same price. A Kansas City llrin has put in a
bid , and 1 understand that they are very low.
I will help you out In your hose wagon busi
ness , even If you did go back on mo a few
minutes ago , " and tlio magnanimous alder
man resumed his checking , and the silence
that ensued was so thick that you could dis
sect it with a coal shovel.

Cardinal Gibbous Opens a Hciicflulnry
Iii.stittition.
Niw : YOUK , May 5. [ Special Telegram to
Tun Bin : . ] A fair for the benefit of the
Kom.in Catholic mission homo for immigrant
girls was opened tonight by Cardinal Gibbons ,
who spoke at some length urging aid for the
mission.
"Tho mission house Is Intended to provide
n temporary shelter for immigrant girls. It
will bo the aim of the reverend gentleman
and his associates in charge of thohouso to pro
cure suitable occupation for them In Ihe city
or to send them to their destination in other
parts of the country. The guaidluns will
also profit by the brief sojourn of the gills in
the house to teach them practical and useful
lessons which will guide them in their future
lives. They will bo taught that idleness is
degrading and that mendicancy is a crime on
the part of these who can work in a coun
try where employment can be easily obtained.
They will be taught a spirit of self-
resjicet and self-reliance. They will bo taught
that in this country every honest occupation
Is honorable and that persons are esteemed
not so much for the otlico which they fill as
by the /enl and diligence which they bring to
the fulfillment of their duties. Above all
Ihoy will bo admonished to preserve the
faith of their fathers. Some of you
who are hero tonight no doubt passed through
Ihe Irylng ordeal of an immigration.
Perhaps you landed on these shores with n
heavy heart , having no ono to bid you wel
come or to extend to you the tight hand of
friendship. If such Is the case you should bo
i rady to say as Queen Dido said toKnaes :
Being acquainted \vitli human sorrow I have
learned to succor the distressed. ' I then
venture to appeal to you us you love your
'kindred , your fiesh and blood , as you
love our common humanity , as you
in o icalons for fcmalo chastity to help this
mission house. "

Tin : BEB.J-FredeMiMt C. Crawford , the re
porter of the Worldvriio Interviewed 0rover
Cleveland on Editor Dana , 1ms written a let
ter to the editor of-Frank Leslie's Illustrated
Newspaper , in which ho Impugns Cleveland's
veracity and nfllrmb tlio truthfulness of the
interview ns printed , * Crawford's Interview ,
nt the dictation of powerful politicians , was
repudiated by the WoM , which went back
on Its reporter ami iiiado n statement that Its
news was faked , nil for the sake of helping
Cleveland out of n tfgnt placo. The credit of
this unusual , indeed almost unprecedented ,
action on the part of the paper Is to bo given
ex-Secretary of the Navy Whitney , who
brought his personal and business "pull" to
bear on the Woild , iiml succeeded. The
World had convicted Itself of faking even
when it know that it had told but
the truth. Crawford is n newspaper
man of several years' experience and has done
n large amount of interviewing , and says that
this ease is the first ono in which his inter
views have been disputed.
Crawford speaks of Cleveland's ' repudiation
of the Interview , and uses these words near
the beginning of his letter : "I assert , on my
honor , that Mr. Cleveland was correctly re
ported In the interview in question. He was
not misrepresented in uny particular. I did
not write out all that Mr. Cleveland said , but
what I did write was a faithful and accurate
report of his conversation. Much of what
was omitted was simply unprintable in any
respectable Journal. "
Crawford tells very minutely the particu
lars of the Interview The city editor showed
him tlio Washington story in the Sun , lo the
effect that Cleveland was gaining llesli nt the
rate of twenty-five pounds a month , and told
him to go und interview Cleveland. Ho
went to Cleveland's law ofllco and
sent in his card as reporter. They hail a
three-quarter of an hour's talk. Cleveland
spoke freely and deliberately and seemed to
bo In a perfectly normal condition. Craw-
lord spoke of the Sun article. Cleveland said
ho had not seen it , had never read the Sun ,
and wouldn't ' touch It with tongs. Then
Crawford gave him the gist of it , and Cleve
land , straightening up , "made us > o of a pro
fane expression reflecting' ' on the qhastity of
Mr. Dana's mother. " Cleveland then launched
Into u vigorous denunciation of Dana , calling
him a blackguard , vagabond and dastardly
scoundrel. "Ho also characterized him as a
senile old liar and thief , " with the addition of
a profane prefix. There was considerable
profanity throughout the interview , but none
of this was published. When the Interview
had lasted some time Cleveland asked how
much of his talk Crawford was going
to write up. and , taking up a pad ,
said : . "I will write n little something
to guide you. " Ho then wrote n few lines ,
closing : "He ( Dana ) must bo his own Judge
of social decencies and proprieties. I nm not
sure that ho should at this tlmo of life and in
his apparently peculiar mental condition bo
molested in his amusement. " Part of the in
terview Cleveland did no write , but spoke.
Ho alluded to his wife , and said Dana had
not confined his atlaeks to himself. He made
war on women as well as men. The attacks
on Mrs. Cleveland had not been made openly
or directly , but by Mr. Dana's favorite
method innuendo. "Cleveland said dis
tinctly. " says Crawford , " 'the old thief ,
Dana , has not hesitated to drag my wife's
name into his scurrilous attacks. The
man who makes war on women is
infamous. ' Cleveland spoke with
considerable feeling iu referring lo the un-
warranled use that had been made of Mrs.
Cleveland's name by the malignant editor.
'If Dana wns not in his dotage , with ono foot
in the grave , his senile , ravings would attract
moro attention. The public is disjwscd to
look with sorno leniency on u man that has
paresis. This was all that saved Dana from
being heid to a strict account for his atrocious
conduct. ' "
Crawford closes by saying that nothing
was said to the effect that any portion of the
Interview was private , and declares ho could
have no possible motive for misrepresenting
the ex-president.

A Near Approach to IJloodwhcd at the
Clayton Investigation. v
LITTLE HOCK , May 5. A largo number of
negroes testified before the investigating
committee today that they voted for Claylon
for congress.
This evening when Mrs. Thomas Hooper
had finished her testimony , In which she ac
knowledged that she was acquainted with
Sutor , Carol Armstrong arose and said :
"There has been seine foul charges made
against tlio people of Morrillton and Conway
counties by the mouthpiece of Powell
Clayton. I desire to enter an appearance
for the people of Conway county
I insist that this committee shall stibpuina
witnesses from among the people of Conway
county to refute the charges' that have been
made by this infamous and vile slanderer. "
No sooner had Armstrong uttered these
woids than Judge McClure sprang from his
seat and struck him in the face. The
court room was packed and everybody
'was on his feet. Colonel W. H. H. Clayton
reached for his pistol. "Hold on , " cried
Powell Clayton. "Wo don't want any of
that. " Friends caught hold of Armstrong ,
who was struggling desperately to get nt
Judge McClure , and afler a short tussle led
him out of the room.

Flock ol * Sheep Apparently
lilown Out Into Space.
Mr. G. W. Doyle of Smltliflehl , Henry
county , was in the city yesterday , and
told of Homo reinarkiiblu freaks per
formed by tlio tornado in bis neighbor
hood , for the truth of which ho vouches ,
HiiysCHho Louiuvillo Courier-Journal.
About ono mile west of Kminuncu liven
Mr. Juntos Dnuio , u prosperous farmer.
His farm wns directly in the path of the
tornado. A Mr. Muildox and child , who
lived on the place , were killed by a fal I
ing house , and Air. Drano's residence
was unroofed and hia bams domoli&hed |
But the most singular occurrence was
that u largo Hook of sheep on the farm
was picked bodily up by the wind and
blown away. The sheep were missed the
day following Urn storm and diligent
search was made for them all over the
surrounding country , but no trace of the
animals could bo found. So thorough
was the search that it left no doubt in
the minds of Ihopo engaged in it that
the sheep wore actually blown out of the
neighborhood.
A few miles further on from the Drano
farm a sink hole was found , ' into which
the tornado had disgorged itself ; but
had evidently hold on to its mutton , as
none of the sheep wore found in the
hole. Into this hole the tor
nado had dropped a largo
quantity of articles , some of
which had certainly been brought a long
distance , as they wore unknown to the
people of that locality. The article at
tracting most attention was a largo ,
elegantly carved pulpit.
None of the churches in that neigh
borhood had lonl a pulpit , and -among
them all such a fine ono could not have
been found , oven had the tornado gone
around and selected the best. Beside
the pulpit was a largo quantity of bed
clothing , mattresses , feather beds , pil
lows , comfortables , sheets , etc. Tlio bull :
was held down by a number of tin roofs ,
which also must have como a long way ,
us the roofs of that section were made of
shingles.
TJOVC Cannot Wait.
Julius Addibon , a young man residing
live miles south of Newcastle , Ind. ,
called on bis intended the other morning
and pressed her to name an early day for
their wedding. She insisted that she
was too young , and that ho must wait
two years. lie said that ho would kill
himself first , and asked her to lot him
first kill her and then himself , and thus
end their trouble. She begged for her
life , and young Addison finally left her
at midnight , vowing to end himself be
fore morning. At an early hour the next
morning his body was found in his buggy
a short distance from the lady's home ,
with an empty revolver by his side and
a bullet in bis brain.
