The lire department was called out yester
day forenoon for the purpose of suppressing
n lire that had broken out In the residence of
Justice K. S. Uarnatt on South First street.
A line of hose was laid , but before the water
could bo turned on Mrs. Dnrnctt had sue-
cecdcci In suppressing the llanics. The flro
Caught from a gasoline stove. Mrs. Barnett
was using the stove , the upper burners for
cooking dinner and the lower for heating
wash water. The boiling over of a dinner
pot extinguished the two upper burners.
The accident was not noticed nnd a largo
quantity of the inflammable lluld escaped and
ran down into the dripping pan at the bottom
of the stove. The oil became ignited by the
vapor coming in contact with the lower burn
ers and tha liltclicn was lllled with a sheet of
flame. The lluld In the reservoir also uecnmo
Ignited , but Mrs. Hnrnott was not deterred
by the roaring Maine and went to work with
u piece of carpet and extinguished the flro.
When it was over she found that her face
nnd arms were severely binned , and a physi
cian was called to attend her. The house was
damaged only slightly and the loss is fully
covered by insurance.

the more serious offense of sending obscene

the wretch has been guilty of Is
of such a nature nnd so unnatural
thnt the law does not cover It , and to prose

the best thing that cnn bo done. It has been

pseudonyms that denote the character of the
woman and distinguishes her from other

The Union Depot.
There are all sorts of questions nnd nil sorts
of guesses In regard to the union depot pro
ject. No dellnlto information seems to bo
within the reach of the public , nnd for
months there has been nothing gained by in
quiring of these who are supposed to linvo
the matter In chai'go , and to bo fully ac
quainted with the situation. The general
assurance Is given that tlio project Is all
right , ntul that a union depot will bo built
sometime , but this has ceased to bo satisfying
to thn curious and anxious inquirers.
The recent move of the Chicago & North
western railway in securing the right of cer
tain streets nnd alloys In the vicinity of the
local Broadway depot , has revived the con
jectures and predictions. Some look upon it
as the entering wcdgo which will
break up the union depot schema
It is said that the Northwestern Is planning
on building n line local depot , of which thcro
is great need , and that the building of this
will prevent the road from Jolnltigin tlio union
depot. On the other hand this is denied , as
the oftlchils of that road linvo already signed
nn agreement to Join with the other companies
whenever a union depot Is built , The North
western realizes the great advantages which
It gains by having a local depot on Broadway ,
on the line of the motor , for it catches thereby
a great deal of business. It Is said that what
ever may bo the result of the union depot
scheme this local depot will bo
malhtancd anyway. It is given out
that < ho Northwestern stands ready
to put its money Into the union depot at any
tlmo when the others are ready. It Is not
expected that the proposed improvement of
their Broadway sue will bo mndo before
spring , by which tltno the fate of the union
depot will bo pretty well determined. If
thnro is to bo no union depot , then the North
western will put up a much liner local depot
than It otherwise would.
Another prediction 'heard in various circles
is that the ivcont move of the Northwestern ,
and the uassage of the ordinance vacating
certain streets , are really steps for the ulti
mate locating of a union depot on or near
Broadway , In the vicinity of ttio present
Northwestern depot. Instead of the site In
the southern part of the city.
It seems that the railway companies , whllo
agreeing to Uio union depot project , are not
anxious for the depot to DO built , and while
not outwardly opposing It , arc still in fact
killing It by dilatory measures and by caus
ing complications in the arrangement of Hunt
details. Ono excuse Is said to bo that the
tlmo is not good for the selling of bonds.
None of the railways care to excite the oppo
sition of the publlo by open opposition to tha
union depot , nut such open opposition is not
necessary , where thcro are so many ex
cuses nnd objections which can easily bo
put forth for an apparent Justification of do-
lay. It U conceded that if the railways
wanted the union depot very badly they
would soon get it , as they got the streets nnd
other advantages which they chancoto covet.
The business men are getting impatient
over the apparent Juggling , uud are no longer
to bo quieted by being told that it Is a great
enterprise , with luauy details , auU that the
completions of arrangements must neces
sarily bo slow.
In the meantime the local depots nro n ( Us-
grace to the eltv. They would not bo tolerated
erated In any healthy country town ,
Hon. W. 11 , M , Pusey , who Is as well In
formed nnd as directly Interested as any ono
In the dry , says the railways will not do nuj-
thing before spring , The stock is still In the
hands of the dcuot company and has not been
transferred to the railway vet. Ono of the
causes of the delay as stated by him Is that
property owners have advanced prices out
rageously , thus making It dlftlcult to secure
the necessary land for approaches , etc. Ho
cites ono case of nn owner of thirteen lots
near the canning factory inking * ISKX ( ) for
them. Ho says the canning factory folks nro
objecting , claiming that the tracks will
leave the factory In a , pocket. Notwith
standing these dtnicultlcs ho expresses
the belief that the depot will bo built next
year , if the people don't get to abusing tha
railways , in which event the city may lose
the golden opportunity and content Itself
with n number of Httlo depots scattered about
the city.
A number of leading citizens have Joined
in a petition to the board of trade to take ac
tion towards securing tha depot right away ,
or at least to get some definite and satisfac
tory assurances that such a depot will bo
built.

The board of education held a special
session last Evening for the purpose of passIng -
Ing upon the numerous applicants for the
posltlonof superintendent of the city schools
to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation
of Prof. McNnughton. All the members
were present , but none of the applicants were.
Before the matter was taken up the
architects' flnal estimates of work done by
the contractors on the new school buildings
wcro presented and ordered paid. AVlckhatn
Brothers received 3,50 ! ) , J. A. Murphy § 1,330
and Herman & Brown 51,200.
The board then got down to the jyork for
which the meeting was called. A list of all
the applicants had been presented to the
members w-rltten with a typewriter , filling n
pagt ) of Icgalcap papor. A cart load of
reccommeudatlons of the vcrlous candidates
was presented but not taken up , the members
having famllalrized them solves with the con
tents. There was nothing to indicate
a coming storm , and when Mr.
Blaxsimmlldlysuggested thnt It would bo
proper to proceed by ballot to select n
superintendent , and moved that an informal
ballot bo taken the suggestion was readily
acquiesced In and the motion carried. The
Informalballot resulted In Prof , J. L. Snyder ,
of Allegheny City , Pa. , receiving two votes ;
Prof. A. O. Schotts , of Stuart , la. , ono ;
Prof. J. A. Leonard , of Youngstown , Ohio ,
ono ; Prof. A. Jackson , of Mt. Pleasant , la. ,
ono ; and Prof. Balllugor , of Council Bluffs ,
ono.
ono.Tho board then proceeded to a formal
ballot. Prof. Leonard received three votes ,
Prof. Balllnger ono , Prof. Schotts ono and
Prof. O. D. Uakdljiraw , of Nebraska City.
ono. There was no choice , and another
ballot was taken , with the same result , only
Prof. Hakes traw was dropped and Prof.
Snyder was substituted.
On the third ballot Prof , Leonard received
three votes , Jackson two nnd Ballingqr ono.
Mr. Schoentgen , as chairman of the teachers'
committee , upon the request of the board ,
then made a report strongly recommending
Prof. Leonard , and informing the other mem1
bors that the teachers' committee had given
the matter the closest personal attention , and
of all the applicants for the position they
were convinced that Prof. Leonard was the
most desirable and would glvo the greatest
general publlo satisfaction. Another vote
wns taken , but Prof. Leonard did not suc
ceed In getting any moro than the three
votes , which were those of Messrs , Wells ,
Schoentgen and Hunter.
Mr. Wells , as soon as the result was an
nounced , arose nnd moved that Prof. Leonard
bo elected by acclamation. Before the mo
tion was put ho presented a number of very
strong endorsements of the Ohio gentleman ,
written by prominent business men living at
Voungslown , where the professor Is well
known and has long been connected with the
public schools. Many of the .letters were
spontaneous nnd all wore highly commenda
tory , Mr. Wells stated that the letters were.
many of thorn , answers to Inquiries ho had
sent to prominent business men whoso
names ho had obtained in "a com
mercial way. and none of them
from men named as reference from the pro
fessor. In fact , Prof. Leonard had not fur
nished any inferences or oven made nn ap-
plicarion for the position , but Mr. Wells had
hoard of him and written to him asking him
if ho would accept the position. When ho
had announced that ho would consent to
come the teachers' committee hail written
him Inviting him to como to Council
Bluffs , telling him that the board
would inuko no contract with any
person until they had seen him. Prof.
Leonard hud responded to the invitation and
had spent several days in the city and had
created n very f avorablo Impression wherever
ho went.
A vote was taken upon Mr. Wells' motion
after ho had finished reading the letter and
making the statement , but it showed the
snmo deadlock that has attracted so much
prominence to the board since the present
school year begun.
After the vote wns taken It was evident
that thcro was nojiopo of agreeing upon a
superintendent , and u motion- adjourn was
made nnd carried. The regular meeting oc
curs a week from Friday , nnd if thsro is not
a compromise effected in the meantime , an
other attempt to break the deadlock will bo
made then.
It was not quite 10 o'clock when the board
adjourned , and after the mooting another
private session was hold , but not In the
school house , at which nearly all the mem
bers were present. It Is said that a compro
mise was agreed upon , nnd when the board
meet * again there will bo no deadlock and a
superintendent will bo elected. It Is Inti
mated also that It will not ha P rof. Leonard.
Hallway Kitun : in Court.
Some very heavy law suits were started
yesterday in the district court. The petitions
weighed over n pound nplcco. They were
four of a kind , they being the State of lown
vs the Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy , Chicago
cage & Hock Island , Chicago , .Milwaukee &
St. Paul nnd the Chicago & Northwester
railways. The petitions were drawn by At
torney General Stouo , nnd they asked for aa
order of court requiring these railways to
comply with the schedule of freight rates
established by the railway commissioners ,
The petitions state that the railways have
been charging more than these maximum
rates , utleiut the petitioner Is so Informed.
The rates ns ostablUlicd are tilled us ex
hibits with ttio notltloas , Xormlug a
pondrous amount at reading matter. The
owning up of thtf eases In court will bo
watched with eonJrtnrablo Interest , and the
railways will doubtless contest sharply every
Inch of the way. The petitions ask for In
junctions , so that It ( hey arc Issued any rail
way violating the order may bo brought up
for contempt.

Williams Didn't Steal Hand.
Thocosoof the state against Martin Will
iams , charged with hauling sand from the
laud owned by J.V. . Paul , wns called it Jus
tice Barnott's court yesterday afternoon.
The complaint hod been Hied by J. E. Hunt ,
agent for Paul , and the prosecution was.
brought to arrest the wholesale appropriation
of sand from Mr. Paul's premises near the
river on this side. The state was represented
by Emll Schuiv , and the defense by Paul
Seabrook. The case was tried to n Jury and
occupied n largo part of the afternoon. There
wcro many witnesses to testify for the do-
fcnso nnd a few for the prosecution , but it
was clearly established that the defendant
had taken the sand. It was shown by
him In dofcnso that ho wns only fol
lowing a general custom nnd that ho
land from which it was tuiten was not fenced
and thcro wns nothing to indicate that Mr.
Paul objected to having the sand hauled
away.
The complaint charged malicious mischief ,
and the defense made n strong point of the
admission of the prosecution that no warn
ing had over been given to trosspasscrs.
The court room was filled with the friends
and sympathizers of Williams , who Is a poor
man , nnd the prosecution had up hill business
from the start.
After the testimony was nil in and the ar
guments concluded , thu Jury announced the
verdict of acquittal without leaving their
scats. It was a splendid looking Jury , com
posed almost entirely of business men.
The case apainst Hughes will probably not
bo pushed. The prosecution has called suf-
ilclent attention to the fact that Mr. Paul
considers his sand banks of sufllclent value
to protect them , and there will probably bo
further depredations and no moro sand hauled
away without his consent.

IT WAS A STORMY SESSION ,
Wrangling Characterizes Last Night's Meet
ing of tlio Oity Council.
THE BOARD OF HEALTH FIGHT RENEWED.
C. 10. Squires' Struct Sweeping Clnlnt
Allowed Al'tera Ijnnt ; niitt Huatcil
Dlsc'tisslon I'ho Mui'rUsuy '
Investigation.
The council opened Its meeting last night
to n crowded lobby.
When the session closed the janitor was
the only spectator in sight , nnd ho was
shrlnklugly hiding In a corner of the hall
stufllng his lingers In his cars to keep out
the noise of the wrangling that wns charac
teristic of the entire evening's proceedings.
The lltst spat was Inaugurated when the
old fight between the council mid the board
of health was opened up again. The matter
was brought up on a protest from William
Hurting of 1W1 South Thirteenth street
against the action of the board of health In
ordering his well filled. Mr. Hurting stated
that ho had used the water from the well In
question for nine years , and had never
had any sickness m hU family. He
objected to having bis well closed up
on the analysis of any but a
well known chemist. Ho presented nu
analysis of a chemical showing that the water
was good and fit for drinking purposes. Ho
asked that the order for the tilling of the
well bo withheld until n more careful analysis
could bo made.
Mr. Ford moved that Mr. Hartlng's request
bo granted. The Third ward statesman
volunteered the opinion that "tho city physi
cian don't know auy moro about water than
I do. "
Mr. Lowry enthusiastically seconded the
motion. Ho said things were being carried
ou in a high-handed manner in some of the
departments of the city , especially In the
health department. "Tho sanitary commis
sioner is reported to have said that
some people were throwing garbage -
ago tin their wells , " said Mr.
Lowry. "If such Is the case the sanitary
commissioner should have such offenders ar
rested. " Mr. Lowry roasted the sanitary
commissioner and t\iu \ city physician In turn.
Mr. Wheeler nlso had a word to say. Ho
presented the analysis of the water from the
well In question , and also of water taken
from u lire hydrant , showing that the quality
of the water in the condemned well , far
drinking purposes , wns bolter than that
taken from the city hydrant.
Mr. Morearty championed the cause of the
city attorney. Ho said ho believed In relying
upon the opinion of ttio city physician in
health matters , as ho did upon the city attor
ney In legal matters.
"That's all right , " retorted Mr. Ford ,
"and I would too if I thought the
city physician know ns much about
health and wells and water ns the city
attorney docs about law. I don't ' think ho
does. " And then Mr. Ford branched off Into
a general dissertation upon the value of well
water us a beverage and his opposition to
phvslclans on general principles.
The whole matter was referred to the
board of health for further investigation and
consideration.
There were two reports on the claim of C.
E. Squires for street sweeping for the months
of August , September nnd October. Messrs.
Shnvor and Donnelly of the committee on
streets nnd alleys presented n report stating
that they hud examined the work mid hid
found that the streets wcro being fairly
well swept , nnd that the work was
being done better than prior to the
controversy. The members found ulso that a
share of the blarno for the poor work be
longed to the city officials who had failed to
prouerly supervise the work. They recom
mended that Mr. Squires' claim for the thrco
months bo paid.
Mr. O'Connor presented a minority repoit ,
in which ho alleged that the street sweeping
contractor had grossly violated his contract
with the city , and that the streets wcro in a
disgruccful'condltlon and n lot moro things
of the kind. Mr. O'Connor recommended
that the claim for August bo nllowod , but
that the bills for September nnd October be
radically cut down.
The reports were accompanied by
letters from the city engineer , the
chairman of the board of public works , and
from Mr. Squires. These communications
varied ns widely as the reports presented by
the committee. Mr. Tillson said the work of
Mr. Squires was all right , and Mr. Blrk-
hausor said it was nil xvroug , and the council
had its choice. Mr. Kierstead of the board
of public works also made n statement de
tailing the entire dealings between the board
and the contractor. Ho expressed himself as
satisfied with Mr. Squires' work , and con
curred with Mr. THtson's report.
Mr. O'Connor spoke awhllo nnd called a
few people liars.
Mr , Squires asked permission to reply to
O'Connor's abuse , and the request was
granted. Ho had not gene far with his ex
planation when Mr. Blumor interposed
an obicction and Mr. Squires
was compelled to withhold his explanation.
Mr. Blrkhauser explained at length his rea
sons for opposing the paymeht of Squlro's
claims. Ho said the machinery used by the
contractor was inedequato , and that the work
in general wns poorly performed.
After a fearfully lengthy discussion the mi
nority report was rejected and majority re
port adopted by n vote of 11 to 7.
Mr. Olson made an uffort to have the report
of the special committee appointed to investi
gate Sanitary Commissioner Morrissey's con
duct of his office , taken from tlio committee
of tlio whole. A protest went up from several
of the members and the matter was shelved
for another week ,
In the matter of grading California street
the city engineer was instructed to have the
grading contractor build a culvert required
for the completion of the work.
By resolution of Mr. Wheeler the mayor
was requested to appoint-a committee , con
sisting of four members of the council nnd
live citizens ( the mayor to bo chairman of
the committee ) , to consider and report , to the
council such amendments as may bo deemed
necessary to the present city charter.
On recommendation of the committee on
claims the supervisors of registration were
allowed $6 per day each for their services.
This action requires the payment of nearly
$2,000 for registrars' services for the recent
general election.
An invitation to the mayor and council to
attend the laying of the corner stona of St.
Joseph's hospital ou Sunday next was re
ceived and accepted.
The mayor's vote of the ordinance granting
the Union Pacific right to lay Its tracks
across Sixth strcot on Jackson , on account of
omissions in the ordinance , was sustained.
A. Dorn's claim for $ i,000 damages to prop
erty bv the grading of Franklin street be
tween Thirty-fifth nnd Thirty-sixth streets
was rejected , the city attorney holding that
the claimant's source of remedy was in the
district court.
City Physician Gapen presented a com
munication to the council calling attention to
the fact thnt a great many unfortunate people
ple are arriving in the city from the west In a
sick and destitute condition nnd calling upon
the city physician for food nnd medicine. Ho
has been sending them to St. Joseph's hos
pital at the city's expense , hut finds the plan
an unnecessarily expensive ono. Ho asked
that the council make some provision for the
old of these needv nnd worthy applicants.
The matter .was referred to the committee on
Judiciary.
The supervisors of registration will sit on
November 31 , ! ! nnd9 to receive the ad
ditional registration for the city election on
December' ' . The places of registration nnd
election are the sumo ns nt the general elec
tion.
William Hatch presented a claim of 1100
for Injuries sustained by falling through a de
fective sidewalk on Burl strcot near Twenty-
seventh on October 15.
The lire and pollco commission was author
ized to purchase the required hose cart.s nnd
apparatus for the equipment of the now
engine houses.
Amonctho ordinances passed wcro : GrantIng -
Ing a franchise to the Ballou electric- lamp
manufacturing company ; granting the Union
Pacific right of way on Jon'es street , across
Sixth ; making appropriatfons for the pay-
meat of liabilities Incurred ; granting the Ne
