L. A. Devine has just returned from an ex
tended trip through the east , In the course
of which he bus had Interviews with a largo
number of manufacturers. Ho finds that a
feeling of unrest Is pervading manufacturing
circles all through the e.ist , a feeling thut
the necessity of the hour for them Is to move
out Into the west , where llioy will be closer
*
lo their trade. This Is no now thing , but tbo
manufacturers have been postponing taking
the Hist step toward a change of base on
account of the cost of making the move.
They lire beginning to sen , however , that the
da ) is not far distant when they shall have
lo null up their stakes and strike out for the
Betting sun regardless of expense.
Ono thing thai has always boon thought
to bo .standing in the way of Council Hluffs
nnd Omaha us manufacturing centers Is the
Inch of convenient , cheap coal. This , Mr.
Dovino says , Is not the drawback that it is
commonly thought to be. Ho ran across ono
largo factory in Illinois which was located
HO close to a coal mine that a chute was run
from the mine Into Ihe engine room of Iho
factory Ihrongh which Iho coal could bo
brought for use. And yet the chute remaini
idle , for the proprietor of the estahllshmenl
Btutcs thai although coal can be brought and
hud down for 80 cents a ton , ho cannot n fjord
to use it. Crude oil Is used for fuel alto
gether , ami brought , ns It is , in huge tanks ,
it is found to bo a cheaper fuel than coal ,
even under the most favorable circumstances.
Not once during his trip did Mr. Dovino hear
n question asked as to the facilities of Coun-
i II IJlufTs for furnishing coal. This is a point
that may well bo looked Into by Iho cnler-
prising leaders of the Merchants and Manu
facturers association.

Council UlulTs enjoyed its ilrst Sunday
under the new rule tliat the Omaha ofllclals
have adopted , closing the saloons , both front
door and back. While , it could not bo
truthfully said to have been a howling suc
cess , the way In which Irtilf drunken men
and women Hocked to the eastern bank of
the Missouri leads to the belief that howl
ing may bo looked for before the summer is
over. Tlio saloons hero x-ttn wldo open ,
although the proprietors uro careful not to
allow anything to take place in their estab
lishments on Suliday that is likely to result
In a strict enforcement of the law. Still ,
every one that wants to can get all he wants
to drink on Sunday as well as any other
day , and the consequence is that Council
Hind's Is destined to become the haven ol
delight for many thirsty people from Omaha
In the future unless the ofllcials of that city
recede from their position or the mayor ol
Council UlulTs changes his.

The new city council will hold its Jlrst
meeting tills evening. The new aldermen
will take their places , the mayor will read
Ids annual message , and another year's work
will bo entered \i\nn. \ One of the Interesting
features of the meeting will bo the balloting
for a city clerk to succeed A. .f. Stcphcnsoti.
Thure are four candidates mentioned promi
nently. J. H. Million , U. N. Whtttlesoy , G.
M. Wilson and /Curmuchlcn , Jr. Some of
the friends of the latter state that ho Is out
of the race , as ho Is saving up for two years
hence , when ho expects to bo a candidate
for the democratic nomination for county
recorder. Ho ! o montl'inod , however , anil
has novcr publicly donled his candidacy.
Them are live democratic aldermen in the
city and cadi o.no lias his favorite candidate.
They held a caucus yesterday afternoon
at the ofllcu of 0110 of the num
ber with a view to finding out
what the chattel's were for fixing up some
r.ort of a deal by which a nomination may bo
made tonljrhl. Of course lh > meeting took
place behind loi'itcd doors , and the details of
what wan done lire not known , any further
than that at the hour of adjournment they
were no nearer a solution of the dllllculty
than at the beginning. As one of the gen tie-
men said , there were three or four things
that could not be decided until toda , but
they hoi" ; that by nluht an agreement will
'he ri'achi'd. One thing thai is cau.slng the
delay Is the absence of .I. J. Hatha\vay , who
has Wen to Ohio , but was expected home
yesterday. On bis failing to show up It is
supposed that be will be hi > me this morning
without fail. When a compromifc Is reached ,
if it Is reached at all , H is pivlty certain that
the lucky candidate wl I have made a posi
tive agreement as to the man who in to bo
his deputy , and that the clerk and deputy
will belnng to the opposite and eternally
warring factions of the city democracy.

Still Continues.
Since the jmblii ; meeting at which the
Initial move was taiccn toward securing a
free bridge between Council I Muffs and
Omaha was held , the matter has almost
dropped out ot sight , not on account of any
dying out of the interest , but because a good
deal of the work noiv on must from the
nature of the matter in hand bo carried on
quietly. The loaders of the movement are
seeking to ( hid out w'n.it a bridge of the kind
wanted will cost. A meeting of the committee
of Kill will be held early this week , at which
steps will bo taken toward securing an esti
mate from some competent engineer as to the
exact cost. This can only be told after a
sur\e.v of the uroiind and a careful calcula
tion of the probable cost of materials and
hi hot * . For the present an approxi
mate estimate is all that Is available. A
gentleman who has had considerable ex
perience in brUgo work and is in a\cry way
competent to jiidgo states that a bridge can
bo built across the Missouri on Farnam
street , with all mvessary approaches , tor
considerably less than the present motor
bridge cost. He places tlio cost at $ -l&"iiOU ) ,
the difference being caused by tlio better lay
of the land on the east side of the river for
approaches. This is about 8 per cent of the
assessed valuation of the property in Coun
cil Bluffs , but only a llttio over 1 per cent of
the combined assessment of the two cities.
A small tax per annum for three or four
years , or a still smaller tax and the icsuanco
of bonds running ten or twenty years will
provide a free bridge for the two cities , at a
price which will hardly be felt by the tax
payers , while the cities' business interests
will receive a bonollt that will oo infinitely
beyond what it costs.
Tlio free bridge scheme Is hero to stay , and
the wideawake citizens in whoso hands It Is
will not drop It until trafllo between Omaha
and Council UlulTs Is entirely unrestricted at
the hands of private corporations. A meet
ing of the "Cosmopolls , club , " as the organi-
yatiou of citizens ban been dubbed after Dr.
Washington Gladden , will bo held at the
court house next Saturday evening lo hear
reports from the committees , one of which
was to take a general oversight over the
matter , and the other to confer with Omaha
citizens with a view to uniting the efforts of
tlio public spirited citizens of both places.
' 1 supi < esc , " said one of the leaders of the
movement last L veiling , "there are lots of
people in Council Uluffs who , if the motor
company should suddenly wheel around and
agree to give us a fi-ccnt faro and to pay the
city and t'.io property owners for their pav
ing , would bo in favor of dropping all further
efforts and letting the motor company con
tinue to operate ns at present. Thatlsono
point wo must guard against. What wo are
really starling out to do is to get hold of
that motor line and lot the city run it. In the
course of the next twenty jears it will bring
a million or more dollars into the pockets of a
fijw capitalists , which ought by all rights to
go into the city treasury , as the city has
given the company by far the most valuable
thing in its whole stock , that is , the fran
chise. Wo must work in this direction from
now on , and whatever moves wo make
should haVe that end directly in view. "

After more than two months of continuous
service the Christian church meetings-
Temple hall will bo terminated on Thursday
evening. In every respect the meetings
have been successful beyond the expecta
tions of the church people and the brilliant
pastor. During the time the membership of
the young organization has moro than
doubled , and the Sunday school has pi-own
from a small gathering of children into an
aggressive organization of nearly ' . ' 00. Yes
terday at the morning service the hand ol
fellowship was extended to twenty-one now
members , and in the afternoon six were bap
tised. No pastor In the city lias succeeded
In awakening a deeper and more lasting In
terest hi church work. The church , on ac
count of Its phenomenal growth , Is now con
fronted with the necessity of erecting a now
church building , and this will be done during
the coming summer.
Mr. Allen's sermon last evening , addressed
to an attentive aualence that tilled Ihti hall ,
was an eloquent plea for church union , Chris
lian union. His argument was founded on
Christ's prayer , "Neither pray I for them
alone. " Ho maintained that Christian union
was desirable , possible and probable ; that It
was In accordance with the thought ami
spirit of the day. Christendom , divided as
It Is today , cannot preach thogoipelof Chrlsl
as Ho himself preached It ami meant It to be
, preached. Missionary work cannot bo car
ried on successfully until all missionaries
teach the same truths In the same words
The world can never bo evangelized until all
churches teach and preach the same words
The Japanese government will nol
permit the many now sects K
prosecute their missionary work , am !
there has grown up what might hi
termed a Japanese church. God belli us t (
establish un American church on the sanu
universal lines. The essential condition ol
all ehurein.8 is union. Less than seventy
tire years ago this union movement starlet
and today the vclkln fairly rings with tin
call for Christian unity. Among the grca1
modern energies and agencies that are push
Ing this forward Is the Young Men's Chris
linn association and iho Women's ChrUtlai
Tempeiiineo union. They are spreading
throughout all churches and all Chrlsilai
luuds , Another powerful magnifying fuctoi
VIM the Young People's Hocloty of Christian
Kndo.ivoralready numbering ncarlv l.fiOU.UOO
members. He believed ho would live to see
the dny when God's people should tie one
Ho believed there was an Ideal church ,
where the essential was unity , the nonessential -
essential HlK'rly and la all thlncs
charily i a church whoso founda
tion 's ' Jesus Christ , which shall
say : "We shall speak where the bible
speaks , where the scripture Is silent wo are
silent. " Wo need not bo afraid to have tlio
bible read anil understood. We need not lw
afraid to place It on the knees of every one
and tell them to mold their lives upon their
understanding of It. "In every church
every Influence that Is being exerted Is
being exerted for good , and I bid thorn god
speed. I am determined , as 1'aul said , to
know nothing among you but Jesus cruciflcd.
I have not tried to exalt any creed , but I
have tried to exalt Jesus Christ. "
After the close of the meetings 'i reception
will bo given the new converts , probably on
Frld.i.v evening , at the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas Motcalf , on Hluff street. Next
Sunday night Mr. Allen will preach by re
quest to the Junior Order of American
Mechanics and the American Protective as
sociation. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The city council will hold its first meeting
tomorrow evening , when the mayor will de
liver his annual message and the newly
elected aldermen will take , their seats. Ono
of the interesting features of the meeting
will bo the balloting for city clerk. The
contest between the various candidater for
this position has been a very warm ono ,
extending over all the time that has elapsed
since the election , but now it seems to have
narrowed down to three rivals. . ! . H. Million ,
H. N. WhittlosL-y and G. M. Wilson. All
three are well known in the city as staunch
democrats. Million and Wilson having served
und ( r ex-County Auditor Hendrlcko and
Wblttlesoy being a newspaper man of de
cidedly democratic proclivities. The selec
tion of any ono of them will result , in the
Dusincss ot the city being carried along in
tlio correct way. Each ono claims the
earth , but which of them has the lirst mort
gage on the fence around It will prooably ap
pear later on. H has beeh thought that the
live democratic aldermen would get up a
contest among themselves and so perhaps
prevent the election of any ono for the pres
ent. They are to hold a caucus this after
noon , at which it is likely the much vexed
question will bo decided , however.
A democrat who claims lo have knowledge
of what goes on on the hihido stated that
Mlthen had the inside track and would
probably receive three of the democratic
votes. If the present plan Is followed out ,
and the live aldermen agree to stand by the
decision of the caucus this afternoon. Million
will come up smiling , unless the prophecy of
the democrat auovo referred to turns out to
have been uninspired.

If any of the largo congregation which as-

hurch wore in doubt as to the position
{ 3V. T. 13. Cramblet would take in discuss-
ng the subject , "Roman Aggression" that
loubt was dispelled , for ho asserted posi-

'hurch ' should be called on to halt.
His sermon , ho said , was not directed

11:111 : Catholic church , for he had many warm
"riends who were Catholics , but against the
ionian clergy , and particularly against the
Jesuitical elergy. Ht ! did nor object to the
iburch as a religious oi-g-.inl/.ation , so long as
t kept within the bounds of religion. The
I'eligious element was with it , however , of
minor consequence , the leaders giving more
ittention to matters political than to mat
ters spiritual. Were It right ho would wish
t godspeed , but it wjis not the true church
of Christ. On the Contrary It was , if nol
the greatest , one of the greatest creation- *
of Satan.
Its aggression was not promoted by ro-
.igious zeal , but by a desire to obtain political
mid physical control of all lands. This it
hoped to accomplish in the United States by
several means. The Ilrst was by immigra
tion. It was making'special efforts to send
Catholics from Homan countries lo America ,
it was trying to break down our institutions ,
chiefly the public school system. It knew
very well that where the public school
thrived the "trash" In the catechism , as ho
expressed it , could make no headway.
Where the people wore educated Catholicism
was powerless. The public school , there
fore , was to bo the barrier to the further
progress of the church.
Homo knew this and was consequently
striving to uiidermini ! the institullon. True ,
it supporleo parochial schools. But whyf
Simply out of necessity. There was a de
mand for schools , and the church felt that It
must supply a system of education. Lot the
public schools be destroyed , and the parochial
chial school would soon cease to exist.
Home was a fee toenlightcnmenl. Where
Romanism held sway , there was illiteracy.
I ook at Mexico , where only 7 per cent of the
population could read and write ; or at Spain ,
where the ratio is but thirteen to 100 ;
or to Italy , the home of Iho church and Iho
residence of the pope , where but twenty-
one persons in 100 could rejil or write.
Another way in which the church was
seeking to gam the ascendancy was by polit
ical power. A chairman of ono of tlio late
national conventions protested to the pope
thai the church was altogether too active in
our politics. The church was certainly In
politics and was largely a political organiza
tion. The pope in fact urged the importance
of active political work on the part of his
followers. Tlio church was making herself
felt more strongly in politics than any other
organisation.
A third method of gaining power was by
Iho acquisition of properly. The church
owned three-fourths of the property of Italy
and was obtaining rapidly large possessions
in this country. It was , moreover , strengthen
ing itself In a military way. It had In some
places arms scoreteu and was giving Instruc
tions m military tacllcs. Americans should
bo on Iheir guard. La Fayotto , a Catholic ,
had said that If our liberties as a na
tion were over destroyed they would bo de
stroyed by the Catholics. Tlio Jesuits
were a dangerous class , and their "devilish-
ness" ought to bo expelled. Their oath was
directly in conflict with good government.
It required obedience to the church even
where the interests of the government were
jeopardized. The civil law was binding only
so far as it was consistent with the man
dates of the church. In several countries
the clergy was exempt from trial by civil
tribunals.
The people should bo flrm and allow no In
termeddling with their public institutions.
Tim church had a moral righl lo
have parochial schools , but it had
not a moral right to demand pub
lic funds for sectarian purposes. Wo
needed a freO press ami free speech which ,
ho feared , was not forthcoming , and most of
all , we needed a confederation of all Protcsl-
ants Into ono boIy. "A\'o " were called "war
ring sects , " and thls'was used as an argu
ment against us. We suould thra.v aside all
creeds and unite In'tb ' ono body with Christ
as our head. Succes 'was ' assured , for it was
a fact that the protdstiml church converted
f > 00 persons wheroitho Catholic churches
converted ten. Let Christ alone bo Iho Hghl
and our culde , and Itouiun aggression would
bo quickly cheeked.

Hold nf the Cyrus U'.i'collitlil.
Niw : YOIIK , March IU. The fact has Just
'onie ' to light that just before the ship Cyrus
Wakctleld sailed for San KiMiicisVo on Frl-
ilay morning two dynamite bombs were
'ound In her hold. In consequence of this
, \M > ofllcers of the ship refused to s'lil on her
iiul remained in New York , positive in the
belief that tnero is some scheme afoot lo
sink the craft before she reaches San Fran-
isco.
The llrsl case of bombs w.is found two
ivceks ago , when the ship was loading , be
tween the limber strcaus on Ihc port side of
Iho ship , with planking laid over it. The
lynamite w.is In an iron cylinder , from the
2nd of which protruded a bjiich of matches.
A piece ot sandstone was suspended above
the matches , in such a position tint once at
sea , the plunging and rolling of the ship
would cause Iho sandstone to sway against
the matches , thus igniting them and causing
the dynamite to explode. Tills discovery
caused no little apprehension among the
ofllcors and crew of the ship , but au there was
no address on the case , or any clew as to
how it came to bo in the ship , auprchcnston
was allayed and the work of loading con
tinued and the incidcul"soon forgotten.
.lust ono week after Iho first bomb was
found eonstcrnalton was crealed among
those on boa'rd Ihe Wakefield by tbo llnding
of a second bond. This was on Thurs Jay
last , Iho day before tbo ship was to sail.
The bomb was like the first and was found in
about the same part of the ship.
On the finding of Iho second bomb , Cup-
tain Morton refused to go to sea on the
Wakelleld and anolhcr oillcer also refused.
Another caplmn willing to take Iho ship out
was found and on Friday she put to sea.

DnsvEit , Colo. , March ID. J. D. Mordriunt
was arrested last niglit on a telegram from
Inspector Hess of Chicago. Mordaunt is
under indictment for embezzlement. The
ariest Is a most Important one , as tno sum
named is SVi.OOO.
Mordaunt Is a young man , 2. " > years of ago ,
with a boyish face. In Chicago he was * cm-
ployed as confidential bookkeeper by Smith
it Webster , a big plumbing supply company.
He stood blgh in the estimation of his em
ployers , and great was ttietr surprise when
lie failed lo appear at his accustomed desk
on the morning of February - !
An examination of his books revealed a
shortage of nearly $ ' 25,0110 and small amounts
received by Mordaunt during the past year
were unaccounted for. Mordaunt says that
ho is Innocent of the charge against him. Ho
will bo taken to Chicago. No money was
found on Mordaunt.
The arrest of another Chicago criminal
has also been made hero. His name is liich-
anl Minis alias George Randolph , alias Colonel
nel McDonald , a bunco steorer. Tlio arrest
was made at the instance of Inspector Hess ,
who stated that Sims was under indictment
for conspiracy and swindling. Sims has
atlempted lo bunco several cltl/.cns of Den
ver by trying to gel them lo pay S'3,000 for
an alleged system of his to beat the game of
faro. He is thought to have been unsuccess
ful as no victim has yet been hoard from.
The charge for which ho was indicted in
Chicago Is unknown Here.

searching the workshops and cells at the
state prison Is practically finished , and It Is
said lliat the convicts will bo put to work to
morrow. No firearms have boon found , bul
enough other eontr.iband articles have been
found , H is said , to lill several bushel
baskets.
Among these are slungsbots , billies , steel
saws , knives and a steel hook attached to a
seven-inch wooden handle.
In Convict ilooth's cell was found a com-
plelo plan of Iho north wing and wall facing
Iho river and railroad tracks , with distances
carefully noted. Olhcr evidence of collusion
wiln friends on Iho oulsido has also boon
found , bul the warden declines lo disdoso
Iho nature of it.
In a corner of the iron foundry scarcely
twenty feet from the mouth of the tunnel
through which sovcral in n escaped to till

nel in process of construction , its presence
being concealed by a piece of sh ct iron
placed over the hole.
