Nr.w Yomc , Aug. 8. John L. Sullivan Is
gutting rid of his superfluous flesh rapidly.
Ho wns wolghJd nftor his eight-ratio walk
Vostorany nnd tlppod the beam at 211J , , and
wns feeling remarkably well HP weighed
SI4 \ \ when ho started on Iho wain. It looks
now as If ho will have little trouble In get
ting down to 205 before ho leaves for Now
Orleans.
Over fifty people visited the champion and
looked htm over carefully. Among them was
n delegation from the Manhattan Athletic
club. On oohnlf of the Cherry Diamond
organization Eugene Van tacbuck presented
Sullivan with a gold stop watch In recogni
tion of his services as referee at the club's
recent boxlni : lournoy.
Pugilist Jlin Corbott , training at Loch
Arbour , N. J. , for bis Jlght with John L.
bulllvan. has found it necessary to secure
itill ono moro trainer. Jim Dulr , who has
been Corbott's sparring partner , haa found
that the California ! ) wns getting to bo too
much for him alone , and a * Corbott must uo
worked very bard from now until the fight ,
John McVeigh of Philadelphia Is now present
to assist him. McVnlgh is a perfect giant of
2.'J5 pounds aud has no moan reputation as a
wrestler and 11 enter. McVeigh will hayo a
bard set-to with Corbott about four times a
WCOK and Jim Daly tne other three. Corbott ,
wont through his rocular routine of training
yesterday hand bull In the morning , fol
lowed by his long run to Long Brunch and
return. Then bo wont ut the punching bag
vigorously and Kept hammering It for an
hour. In the afternoon ho again attacked
the bag tor an hour.
A London cable to a morning paper says
that "Parson" Davlos. on behalf of Choynskl
says that ho will match hU man to light
oiirht threo-rnlnuto rounds with Jim Daly ,
Oorbott's trainer , who has recently offered to
light Fltzslmmous on September 5 , the date
intended for Filzsimmoiis' contest with
O'Brien. Davles further says :
"If the Olympic club will offer a reason
able purse , Choynskl will soil at once for
3Now Orleans and will not ask for expense
money , Tno reason that I stipulate eight
rounds Is that there is not tlmo for Choynskl
to tram for n finish contest on that aato. If
Daly will not make this match wo will sail
for America August 25. Choynskl is in good
bo.iltb , good habits and can easily tram
lufllulcntly before September 5 to make u
Hgbt worth seeing with any man of bis
weight. " _

It Ii said that General Eugene A. Carr , the
newly appointed brigadier general , will not
bo assigned to the command of the Depart
ment of Columbia as reported In some
quarters. In the llrst place Gonorixl Carr Is
very much averse to taking this command ,
principally for the reason that ho does netlike
like to bb placed lu authority ever his old
friend nnd dim mate. Colonel W. P. Carlln ,
who has boon his senior in rank from date of
graduation until the president honored him
with his present commission. In the next
placothc authorities hnvo In contemplation 11
general shitting around of department com
manders and a change in the geographical
limits of some of the military departments ,
which , if carried out. will result lu General
Carr bolag assigned to ono ot tbo other de
partments and somcono else detailed to the
Columbia command.
For the present General Carr bos boon
directed to toke a station in this city. With
this statement comes the information that
the secretary of war may reestablish the
division commands broken up by bis pre
decessor. Under the present plan some of
the junior brigadier general * have larger

Mooting of the City Connoll-A Ills : Bntcli
oC lluslnois Dliponod Of.
The city council enjoyed a novelty In Its
proceedings at last night's session. The
novelty was a report from Chairman Wy-
man of the finance committee , nnd it was the
first rendered ot any consequence since Jan
uary 1. Tbo total amount of the bills re
ported on by the chairman was ? 13,000 and
they will bo paid out of the overlap fund
created by the levying of the ocaupatlon tax.
There were several hundred ot the bills
and wens all allowed.
A resolution was passed granting to each
police olUccr ono day oil during each month ,
The location of the huymarkot was ordered
changed from Twenty-sixth street to Twon *
ty-seventh , between M aud N streets.
Chairman Schulz , from the committee on
fire and water , reported that a team of horses
had been purchased for the Third ward bara
at a cost of WOO.
Eloctrlo lights were ordered placed nt
Twentieth and Brown streets , Twentieth
street and Missouri uvonuo and Thirtieth
and S streets.
Walters introduced n resolution providing
that In the future appropriations to pay the
'
cost of gra'dlng Intersections shall bo made
in numerical order , beginning with district
No. 1. The resolution also provided that
where property owners have advanced
funds to graao intersections they shall bo
reimbursed. Wyman objected to the last
clause. Treasurer Hector said ha drafted
the resolution at the request of Mr. Fans
nnd Mr. Wood , who have advanced consider
able money for grading Intersections , and
tbo Intent of tbo icsolution is to simply
make it a matter of record that the money
was not a present to the city and is to bo re
paid. After considerable discussion the
resolution was amended and money advanced
for grading Intersections will bo refunded
when money Is appropriated for grading.
An ordinance was Introduced amending
tbo occupation tax ordinance and the saloon
men will each bo $100 bettor off. The
amount of the tax will bo reduced from $200
to $100. The ordinance will bo passed Mon
day night it tbo rest ot the saloon men pay
up bv that time.
Clerk Ditzon had a special ordinance to
levy assessments agalniit the property on
Twentieth street , from O to Q streets , to
pay the costot sloping banks. Tha work
was done by Cash Bros , and amounts to
$723. At a recent mooting the council in
structed the clerk to issue warrant * to ttio
contractors and the Instructions were car
ried out. The council should have mot as a
board of equalization and passed the spo'cial
ordinance before paving for the work , They
will meet ns an equalizing board August 10 ,
20 and 22.
Geortro B. Goetschal was appointed to suc
ceed J. S. Hasbcrg at flro house No. 1.
Snt a n Hoard of
The city council , as a board of cquallza-
Mon , mot lost evening nt 7 o'clock to complete
pleto Its labors , out the Intention was not
carried out. A portion of the board's work
was to equalize the proposed levy of
special taxes and nHsessmnnts against
tno property abutting on Twouty-Hfth
street , from J to Q streets , to pay
the ovornaul of grading done on that
street three years ago At the time tbo work
was completed the grading was paid for bv
tha city , and tbo overhaul , amounting to
$0,500 , was assessed against the Union Stock
yards property west of Twenty-fifth and
north ot Q street , the dirt being p'lacad upon
that pr.qperty. Tno Stock Yards company
objected to paying the overhaul and carried
the matter Into court , The city was beaten ,
ttio Judge holding that Twenty-fifth
street , not being opened up 'south
of Q street , relieved the company from
any obligation. Of course some ono ba to
pay tor the overhaul and It was proposed by
special ordinance to levy the amount against
tbo properly on Twonty-llfth street. A
majority of the property owners , however ,
arc of a different mind , aud yesterday pro-
soutod n protest to tbo boaid of equalization.
The protest was signed by cltlio'is repre
senting 3.100 foot of the 1,000 foot of prop
erty frouting on the street. The board ad
journed , until Monday ovenlng , at which
time an nffort will bo made to settle tbo
question.
Crooked Oamlilors.
Russell Sarvor arrived in South Omaha
yesterday frosb from Virginia. Ho found
pleasure In bucking the tiger In C. F.
Logan's gambling house at 2007 N street.
Ho won $11 and Sam Lawrence , the colored
man in charge , refused to pay over to
him the money. This an cored Sarvor
and bo appeared before tbo police Judge
and entered complaint againsi Logan and
Lawrence. Lawrence was arrested but
Logan sloped and U now sojourning In
Missouri. Sarvor was also placed under
arrest , and ho says ho Is willing to pay a fine
If.ho can punish the two gamblers.
That occurrences of this uaturo are not of
moro frequence Is a wonder. Five gambling
houses uro run openly in the city
and are well patronized. Around
each place is to bo found a
gang of toughs and crooks , nnd they gen
erally stand In with the house , Tha police
are loth to make raids and giro as their rea
son that a vigorous prosecution cannot bo sc
oured. Two of the placet , are located on
Twenty-fourth street and three on N street ,
nnd a continual stream of men and boys may
be soon each ovenlng climbing the stulrwnys
to them. It Is high tlmo that a general raid
wai made and the great publicity ot gam
bling stopped.

sumo of the I'roceodlncft.
Soon oftor the Board of Education wns
called to order last night Mr. Smyth moved
that the rules bo suspended nnd the board
mnko a special order ot the report ot the
committees on supplies , on heating and von
Illation and on buildings nnd property.
Mr. Gibson wanted Iho regular order , bu'
the motion prevailed , and the board too'i up
first the report of the commltton on supplies.
The committee recommended that the con
tract for furnishing hard wood bo awarded
to A. R. McCandlass nt $0 per cord ; for sofl
wood to Mount & Grlflln nt 51.75 for four-
foot wood , $5.83 for twelve to sixtoon-inch
wood , sawed and split , und $0.50 per cord
for kindling wood. The report wns adopted.
The sarao committee recommended thai
the contract for furnishing soft , screened
nut coal bo awarded tb Coutant & Squires at
$2.83 per ton ; soft stuck and soft lump to
JoffW. Bedford at $1.00 per ton and f3.3."i
for Ardmoro , Mo. , coal , and that the
contract for furnishing hard coal bo
awarded to the Nebraska Fuo !
company at 89.30 per ton for grnto and $9.55
for ranco. The report was adopted.
The contract for furnishing text books was
awarded to the Mogoath Stationery company

August 1,189J.
The contract for printing blanits for the
year was awarded to the Pokrok Zapadu
Printing company , and the pamphlet work ,
rules and reflations and the annual reports
were lot to tbo Mogoath Stationery company.
Considerable discussion arose over
the purchuso of por.s for the
schools. The committee recommen ded that
tbo 14acle pencils and pens bo adopted. C.
W. Welch of Chicago had offered to furnish
Sponccrinu pens und u varlog.ltrd lot of pen-
oils nt a trlllo lower price , but the committee
thought that his goods were unreliable and
not so good us the standard" EiiBlo pencil.
Mr , Morrison made the plea that the Kuglo
company was an American concern , whllo
the Sponcorlun company , the Fabor's nnd
.others were foreign manufacturers , nnd ho
was opposed to purchasing foreign Roods
when American made coeds of bolter qual
ity could bo purchased for almost us low a
price. The report of the committee was
then adopted.
Then came the great annual janitorial act.
Tbo lobby was crowded with professors of
dust and ashes , and the members of the
board decided to taico up the question ot
electing janitors behind closed doors. So
they wont Into executive session ostensibly
on "boating and ventilation , " but really on
janitors.
Sclortmt the Janitors.
After three-quarters of an hour of deliber
ation the board again emerged from seclusion
nnd the secretary was requested to road the

elected for the ensuing year :

The following schools were not supplied

Contracts on tlio CVntral School.
Tho'bourd then took up a report from the
committee on buildings and property on tbo
bids for the carpenter work In the now Cen
tral school. The committee recommended
that the contract should be axvarded to H.
B. Mayo , the lowest bidder at ? 13,47i. ! There
was a long fusllade of oratory from Morris
Morrison and others over the matter , but the
report was adopted.
The committee recommended that the con
tract for the brlok work on the Control
school building bo awarded to George H.
King at jZJ.QUO. Tbo report was adopted.
The committee also recommended that tbo
Fuller & Warren system of beating be
adopted at a cost of ? 3,1GO. This system did
not include the dry closets. Mr. Martin
stated that the < Fuller & Warren svstotn
would cost 91,000 less than tbo Holbrook
system out tbo latter would bo a nystum of
steam heat Instead ot hot air He sain that
if the board considered tbo steam bout pref
erable at f 1,000 more than hot air tbo com
mittee would not consider it a slight to have
the report rejected and the Holbrook system
adopted Instead.
Mr. C. E. Babcock spoke in favor of trying
the Holbrook steam beating anpaiatus at the
extra cost. He believed that the hoard
should try this excellent system slnco Mr.
Holbrook had offered to put In his system of
heating nnd ventilation and lot it boar the
test for a whole year , and if at the end of
that tiino the apparatus was not perfectly
satisfactory bo would IUKO It out without a
cent of expense to the board , and bo hud
also agreed to have nearly all the work noo-
assary In putting In bis apparatus douo in
Omaha.
Dr. Gibbs favored the Fuller & Warren
system.
Mr. Smyth thoutcht the board should give
steam boiit chnnco nnd ho thought tbo
Holbrook system a good ono.
In view of the fact that the bid of Mr.
KmgJor the brick work took into considera
tion only tbo Fuller & VVarron system ot
lieuting end ventilation It was finally do-
'
: ldod to refer the matter back to the 'com
mittee on buildings and property that a con
ference might bo bold with Mr. King on the
Elolbrook system before final action should
bo takOD.
PlumbingContrurtK Awnrtlod ,
Tbo contract for iho plumbing of the West
Dmaha school and the Luthrop school was
iwardod to Mr. vV. G. Higglns at $ d'J7 for the
former aud $743 for the latter.
Ou resolution offered by Mr. Martin the
board decided that all bidders bidding on
building work of any kind for the Board of
Education shall/present / tbor | bids ou blanks
furnished by the architect of the board so
that they will bo uniform.
Tbo ofllolal bond ot Charles Conoyor , sec
retary of tbo board , was presented by Mr.
Poppletori and accepted by the board.
HTho bond of Joe Hummel , foreman ol re
pairs , wns also presented by Mr. Popplutou
and was accepted by thu board ,
Under the general head of potty depreda
tions Mr. C. 13. Babcock raudequlto a speech
ind offered a resolution to offer n reward of
f 5 for the arrest and conviction of any pur-
ties found guilty of breaking into school
buildings , stealing any article of furniture
3t committing any nuisance about the build
ings. The resolution was adopted.
Then Mr. Joseph Hummel broke Into pub
lic gaze again under tha qbapcrouago of Mr ,
Doryell , who offered a resolution to amlgn
Mr. Iluoimol to work as foreman
jf repairs at a salary of 1100
per month and $35 per month
iddlttonul for tbo use of his borsouud wagon.
Mr. Hummel was elected foreman of repairs
Eoveral weeks ago as a necessary adjunct to
tbo success of the Conoyor faction of the
board in the election ot Secretary Couoyor ,
but ho ha * not boon put to work yet nnd Mr ,
Wohror , his friend and patron has boon
growing restive on account of the delay lu
getting Mr , Hummol ou tbo pay roll ,
Mr , Gibson wanted to know If this resolu
tion meant that Mr. Hummel would take the
place ot Mr. Hamilton , superintendent of
uulldlugs. llooald Uo could see no i nio In
bavin ? two men to do the lamu work.
Mr. Coryell Miurod Mr. Ulbioo that Mr.
Hamilton was Hot to ho disturbed by , the nil-
olutlon.
Mr. Points opposed the resolution because
ho thought there was uo need of paying the
fi" a month for the use ot n horse , The sal *
nry was ampin without that.
Dpfontoit the ItOftolittlon.
Mossri. Bnbcock. Coryoll , Martin , Popplo-
ton and \Vohror voted for the resolution ,
while Messrs. Etgutter , Glbbs , Points , Pow
ell and President Spaldlng voted mrnltmt It ,
nnd the consummation of Charles Wohror's
potsohomo , upon which ho has boon working
for mure than a year , viz. : to soouro a soil
SI\JP \ ! .2r " , ls frlo"d Hummel in connection
xvlth the Board ot Education , was again

Mr. O. P. McCarty of Cincinnati , south
western passenger ngont of the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad , has favored TUB Ben with a
guide to Washington Issued for iho especial
use of those who attend tbo onoampmont of
the Grand Army of the Republic In that city.
The worn contains In compact form a sketch
ot Iho city , the great government buildings ,
the monuments , the clubs nnd other points of
interest , all appropriately illustrated. It also .
mentions many noted places of Interest near
Washington , including some of the famous
battle Holds , together with directions for
reaching them and the cost ot railroad faro.

valuable information that every visitor to
Washington will want.
