[ Special Telegram - gram to THE Bin- : ] The supreme court this evening nt ( "r.110 handed down nn adverse opinion In the rase In which Gorlmtn Bctls , ono of Iho Indicted boodlers , applied for re lease upon n writ of habeas corpus. The case has linen before the court for several weeks and has excited n great doil of in- tercst from the fact that If ' Belts could ob tain his release upon u writ the other In dicted parties would also bo able to escape in practically the same manner. The grand jury which Imitated Betts was BUinmoned by Judge Hall In open court on October ! i" > . The term of couct at which the Jury was summoned commenced on Septem ber 10. The grand Jury so called , remained in session for several weeks and finally late in December returned indictments against .t. U. Laucr , W. II. Dorgan , W. U. Sowell. John Dorgan , Frank Ilubbard , and Gorham Belts. All of the parties were arrested and nil were released on bail with the exception of Holts. Ho was uniiblu to obtain bonds men and has consequently remained In the county Jail ever since. Worn All Dot-ply Interested. A week or so after his arrest Bolts , through his attorney , W. B. Price , applied to the supreme court for his release on a writ of habeas corpus. As a cause of action ho alleged that the grand Jury which In dicted him was not a legal body for the reason that the Jurors wcro not summoned at the time and in the manner prescribed In the statute. While Belts represented nominally In the case by Price , It was a notable fact that thai attorney received the assistance of all the atlonioys that had been retained by the oilier indicted parties and consequently the case received tlio alien- lion of Iho besl legal talent in the stale. A great deal depended on the result for if Iho supreme courl woulfl release lietts on the ground that the grand Jury which indicted ' him was nol a legal body It naturally fol lowed that ttio indictinenls returned against the other parties were mfll and void. The case was argued before the supreme court. W. B. Price and C. O. Whccdon ap pearing for the plaintiff , and Attorney Gen eral Hastings.

The remains of General Ahncf Doubleday - day , whose death occurred on the SMth tilt. , were properly laid at rest amid the host of immorlalH burled in Arlington cemetery. General Doubleday wits ono of the his toric characters of the war. Ho was born at Hallston Spa. N. Y. , Juno 20 , 1819 , his father being Ulysses F. Doubleday - day , who was u congressman in 18112. His grandfather fought at the battles of Buliker Hill and Stony Point , and was for some time confined in the famous .lorsov prisons hip. General Doubleday entered the military academy at West Point and was graduated in 1S-I2 , in the same eiass with Longstrcot , John New ton , Koserrnns.

On July , 18015 , ho went to Gettysburg by order if General Reynolds to reinforce Bu- 'ord's cavalry , who wore holding the idgo west of the seminary , and General Reynolds being killed General Doubleday - day took his place for some hours. On that occasion the First corps captured Archer's brigade , the greater part of Davis' brigade , ind almost annihilated Ivorson's jrigado. The second day General Doubleday's division , with a brigade under General Stannnrd , was sent to issist in regaining the position which ; he enemy had taken ; he followed them ap and retook the six guns which they uid captured. When Pickott'a grand charge advanced on the third day it ex posed the right flank , and General Donbleday's front line , under General Stannard , wheeled.and threw them selves upon the vulnerable point , dis ordering the enemy's advance to such an extent that they were easily ro- mlscd.

Colonel Bob Anderson of Mason , a veteran of the late war , relates this In teresting bit of history in the Cincin nati Commercial : "When I was driving a government wagon during the struggle between the stares ono of my stopping places was at tlY6 union prison at Indian apolis. To this r had free access. Ono bright morning , 'when on the road lead ing to Lafayette , I saw ahead of mo ono of the prettiest types of southern beauty that ever crossed my pathway. As she approached mo I turned my team so as to give her a good path , for the road was very narrow and muddy. To my utter aston ishment she approached mo , and beck oned mo to stop. As I drew rein nho cast her eyes about her as if to ascertain whether any one was near at hand , and then , In a somewhat subdued tone , said : 'Aro you the driver of the government wagon that outers the Indianapolis prison' : " 1 replied that I was. and she drew nearer and said that her husband , who hud cast his fortunes with the con federacy , was now a prisoner in that in stitution. She questioned mo further , and 1 told her that I remem bered having seen her husband , as ho was a man of striking person ality , and was further conspicuous from the long hair that hung in ringlets upon his shoulders. Then she made mo a proposition that was the most tempting ono of the many bribes offered for the release of southern prisoners of war. Opening a satchel which she carried in her hand she counted out $10,000 in bright , crisp bills , and told me if 1 could in any way secure the release of hoi- husband that amount , or moro if neces sary , would bo paid mo without u mo ment's notice. 1 teU-you the offer was a most inviting ono , but 1 assured her that it was tin impossibility for mo to aid her in any way. She bade mo adieu , begging that f would not report her to my superior olllcor. " ICiK-iiiiipineiit Ill-form. Past post commanders of the Grand Army of the Republic will not bo en titled to seats In future encampments of the Department of the Potomac. This vexatious question , which has stirred Grand Army of the Republic circles for years , was decided at mid night last night , says the Washington Post , after a long debate , by a vote of 144 to 52 , and then the encampment ad journed. feeling that a Gordian knot had been cut , even if not satisfactorily to all. After the election of department com mander early in this encampment , the whole interest was centered in the move ment to do.nwuy with the law by which the past post commanders hold the same powers as elected delegates. A resolution for the repeal of tyiis clause of the con stitution was introduced by Colonel Dan A. Grosvcnor , ali'd5 referred to the com mittee on resolutions , by which it was laid before the body. Logrolling over this measure has absorbed the energies of delegates and' past commanders dur ing the encampment. The debate upon the resolution lionmnned moro than an hour of the sesf qri last night , and must of the leaders in the department had a word to bay , some ! of the words being very emphatically spoken. The elected delegates wore , nOst of them , in favor of the resolution , while many of the past commanders stoufirmly ( for what they hold to bo their rights , Toward the Close the discussion as sumed the charaptor of u last night of congress. The 'delegates waxed impa tient and called loudly for a vote , while the commander's gavel cracked away for quiet in vain. A two-thirds vote is necessary to amend or repeal any part of the constitution. When the roll call got under way it became evident that a ma jority favored the change , but for some time there was doubt whether two- thirds ot the delegates would vote for it. The matter was settled before the roll call ended , and some of the past com manders drifted out of the hall rather disconsolately , remarking : "This is out last encampment. " liiHtiilhitlon.

Commander Steadman of Iowa has Is sued the following circular : Tlio retiring commander in his ofllcial address to the last department encamp ment made the following recommenda tion for the celebration by Iho public bchool children of the state of Iowa : ' 'To further strengthen and emphasize the sentiment of loyalty to the principles of government , ( iuglit wo not to increase our efforts to thoroughly teach tlio les sons of patriotism in the public schools of the statoV A.gvNvration of active ag gressive men and wlimen has cjino into being since the war , and millions of for eigners have become u part of our body politic hinco Iho saqrilicos of Iho wa compelled a respect for tlio national llag and Iho national government.

" MR , BECIIEL TOOK THE FLOOR Aud Dofeatjd the Proposed Tax Levy Reduction WITH SHREWD PARLIAMENTARY TACTICS I'rojtosllloin to i.unito tlio llonril of IMu- cntlun In Mm City Hull lluiiR l/p- The Lumber Contract Ilullrcil. The promise of a further reduction In the tax levy was nol fulfilled at lust nimbi's mooting of the council , its failure was iluo to the knowledge of parliamentary law i > os- ' scssod by I'rushlcnt ISechel and tlio shrewd use ho nmilp of tbul knowledge. Several of the couucllmcn wont inio Hie meeting with the intention of reducing the ROUCIM ! ami SL-iiool funds at least ono mill each. Tlio op- IKwlliou was fortified with parliamentary tactics , however , nnd was lee inui'h fur tlio counclhnuti with economical ideas. Mr. Hasi-all moved that tbu levy ordinance bo taken tip and put upon its passage , and it was so ordered IIH soon as It hud boon road Hie third time. Mr. Mimro nroso and wanted to amend the ordinance by reducing the levy for tlio general - oral fund from 12 mills to 11. 1'ivsident Hecliel bad t-iilled Mr. llowcll to the chair and was upon tbe door. When Mr. Mutiro made bis motion the president immediately raised tlio point of order that as thu orJinam-o bad been road tlio third time it was not subject to amend ment. Mi. Howell bold that the point was well taken. Mr. Munro was determined to talk , bow- ever , and said ho was ono councilman who would never vote for Iho 12-mlll levy , wblcli was unnecessary and a hardship upon Iho taxpayers. If the levy was made as pro posed it would leave a balance on band in tlio fund at the end of the year amounting to nearly ? 100,000 , and bo could sco no necessity for It. Tbe vote upon the pissagcof the ordinance rcsulled in 11 yean and 5 nays. As soon as Ilio routine business was dis posed of Mr. ICdwards moved a reconsidera tion of the vote and President Ik-ehel moved to tablo. Mr. Hcchel's motion was defeated , but before the vote tipon reconsideration could be taken Mr. Elsasser moved a call of the house and It was ordered. The absentees were Mr. Parker and Mr. Wheeler , who were out of the state and bad been excused , and Mr. Haseall , who bad loft the ball but a few minutes previous. The sergeant-at-arms was dispatched to bring in Mr. Haseall , but bis soarc-h was tin- availing. and when bo retun.od Mr. Doclicl moved that the council adjourn , wbk-h was done , notwithstanding that tlio call of the house had not been dispensed with. Thus the effort to further reduce the tax levy was defeated. The result of the conference of the com mittees oi the eouni-11 and Hoard of Educa tion , which was embodied in an ordinance , did not moot with favor when made known to the council. The agreement readied by Iho committees was that the board should have permanent quarters on the llftb lloor of the city hall without cost. Iho clly reserving the right to terminalo such occupancy by giving eno years notice and refunding to Iho board & 10l)00. ) The couiiellmon were favorable lo Iho board having the quarters , but they objected to thu WO.OOO clause. Mr. Kdwards thouirht that the former con tracts should first be annulled , and could not 'See bow action could bo taken until suuh had been done. Mr. Connell said that the board was not desirous of securing the $20UiX ) , but wanted its interests protected so that it would not bo evicted at the whim of a future council. After further discussion the ordinance was referred to the comtnlttco on public properly and buildings. Some Vetoes Inserted. * Mayor Demls voloed the lumber contract between the city and C. L. Chaffco. Ttio following communication explains his posi tion : I herewith inturn without my approval the prnpoMid contract , with U. L. Chiill'uo for fur nishing lumber for the uio of the oily of Omaha for the year 1893 , for the reason that a careful Inspection of the Itums of lum ber covered by tlio several bids shows that Mr. Chaffeo Is not tlio lowe.it bid- dor. I liullovti th-t : tlio hamo rule should bo applied In this < : aso to the purchase of lumber for tlm city as was applied to the bids for fur nishing books ami stationery. A party should not b t declared to bu thu lowest milder for thu reason tliut Iho UKRnRnto of nil thu Items bid upon Is thu lowest , but this .should bu dotor- nilnod by taking Into account thu probable consumption of any particular Items for the coming year by comparisons with tlio con sumption of tin- past year. Applying this rule to these bids. It will bo found that thu bid of the Wyutt-llullurd Lumber company Is the lowest. This has bi-en demonstrated by a careful computation made by the engineering department. I also veto this contract for tlio reason that u largo number of Items of lumber used by tlio city diirlnp the past year wcro not Included In the schedule on which bids liavo been made this year. 1 bo- llovo and recominond that the advertisement for bids for lumber .should cover and Include all Items of lumber which the city Is likely to use during the coming year , and that the Dost bid bo determined by considering such Itums and taking Into account the extent to which the same are llkuly to bo u.-ed. The vote was sustained , only Mr. Steel and President Uccbel voting in the negative. TUo comptroller was instructed to readver- tiso for bids and iiieludo all items lo bo used. Mayor Bcmis vetoed an ordinance Instruct ing the Hoard of Public Works to 1111 a num ber of lots that are below grade. The streets adjoining ait ; below grade , and the mayor hold'that ' ttio street should bo graded first. The veto was sustained by n vote of 7 to 7. Protest from mi Ice. Company. The South Omaha Ice company protested against awarding the contract for Ice to a competitor at10 cents per 100 pounds in tlio face of its bid of 133 cents. The contract was awarded to the other company on the ground that the South Omaha concern could only furnish ice taiten from Cut-Off lake. This report the company denied very emphati cally. A committee will investigate. A. M. Cowan , agent for tlio Sun Vapor Street Lighting company. In a communica tion called the council's attention to the fact that ho would refuse to sign Hie contract submitted , as the penalty is too severe , and ho requested that the company's check for f''OO bo returned , The communication was referred to the city attorney and the com- milleo on lights. A resolution was adopted Instructing the treasurer to furnish the comptroller with a statement showing the amounts collected for pasl years as a surplus over Iho ! > 0 per cenl for which warrants are to bo issued , or which for any other reason remains to Iho credit of any fund , so that the same may bo entered upon tlio books of Ihe comptroller bo available for the use of the city.

The city attorney had hold that tlio city should not pay this claim and that the Hoard of Education was liable for the amount. The report was lllcd.
