NEWS PROM COUNCIL BLUFFS Verdict of the Coroner's ' Jury in the Recent Motor Accident , STRANGE CONDUCT OF THE CORONER Hit Actloni Crltliilted by the Cltlicns _ Motorman I'urr Mail Superintendent Stone Held to tlio Orand Jury Wluro tlio HUme ItetU. The coroner's Inquest over the death of 12. F. Holmes , who was killed In the Main street motor accident , was completed yester day afternoon , Instead of In the evening , as was announced at the close of last Friday's session. What happened is not known in detail save to the coroner , the Jurymen and the witnesses , for the coroner Issued an order excluding all outsiders from the pro ceedings. Hoportcrs and representatives of the dead man's estate were nllKo under the ban , nnd the only record that Is kept of the proceedings are the very Imperfect notes kept by the coroncr'himself , the short hand reporters who took notes of all the preced ing days' sessions having been included in the order of exclusion. J. K. Ulxby , J. W. Hoyman , Herman Parr , the motor man , George Burke , the conductor , and Miss Maud Bryant wcro the witnesses examined. Miss Bryant stated Unit Just be fore the accident the motor stopped nnd then started up again suddenly , convoying the Impression to her that thoconduetorsaw tbo train ami was trying to pass ahead of it. DParr stated that at the switcttija short distance cast of the crossing ho received a severe shock from the brake , and ran the rest of the distance intervening between the switch and the crossing without his hand on the brake , so as to avoid any moro shocks. When ho saw the train ho put his hand back on the brake , but sustained an other shock that almost paralyzed his arm nnd covered his eyes with a sort of Him thut prevented hint from realizing Just what was going on about him. The conductor , Burke , when asked why ho old not pull the trolley from the wire when ho saw the danger Impending , stated that ho thought the motorman was trying to reverse his current , und saw that for him to pull off the trolley would bo to frustrate the motorman's plans. After the evidence had been heard the jurymen retired and soon after returned n verdict In which they held that the motor company was partly responsible for the accident and recommended that the case be turned over to the grand jury nt its next session. It also directed that both Superin tendent A. 1C. Stone and the motorman , Herman Parr , bo held , the former because ho revoked the old rule requiring conductors to Hag the trains , and the latter because ho attempted to cross in front of the freight train. Much criticism has been expressed on the action of Coroner Seybcrt in this case. It has been evident from the start that ho was opposed to giving the case the sifting it de served , and during the last day or two it has been just as evident that ho desired to pre vent the public , and even the friends of the dead man , who had a right to be interested , from learning the facts that might bo brought out during the inquest. The end of the matter has not yet been reached by any means , however , and the information that the friends and family of the deceased have been deprived of will come out in another way.

II. llrulK" Company. The city council held its regular monthly meeting last evening n meeting which will pass down into history as the ono at which the councilman , for the first time in their lives , made a bold stagger at brineing the , motor company to terms. The first biff was not a very hard one. but it was something. Alderman White Introduced un ordinance . that read as follows : Ho It ordained by the city council of Council UlulK lu. : Suction 2 N'o corporation or person owning or upur.-.tlnz u street car or electric motoi llnu.overnnd along Hroadway N trout and ave nue A or part thereof of the city of found Hind's , In. , shall demand , charge or receive moro than U cents for the trails pnrtatlon of any person from the .iitoi-siictlon of Hroadway and 1'lrsl !

The matter of doing away with the Man awi motor switch at the same place was re fcrrcd to the city attorney to ascertaiu whu rights the city hits. The cold resolution Instructing the cit.i treasurer lo withhold the money lu tin park fund from the park commissioners , except i1' copt on the production of warrants , was re Iss scindcd. s- Alderman Smith Introduced an ordlnanci n- requiring all motor trains to bo stopped no1 less than twenty feet from railway crossing c- and the conductor to preccdo his train ovu il. the crossing , and llxlng A line of not les & than flu nor moro than $100 for each viola tlon.

A lot of city records that wcro taken to the court iiodso a number nt years ngo for safekeeping nnd have there accumulated must and dust , were moved to their now resting plnco in the city building yesterday morning , E. J. Abbott wns superintending the job of moving them nnd putting them tmaya In the city's archives. Several men who wcro doing the soclalblllty net In the city clerk's ofllco were surprised by the sud den nppcnranco nt the door , of Abbott , with blanched face and chattering teeth. "W-w-w-hat d'ye anpposo this Is ? " said ho , ns ho hold n long , dark object out to the view of the spectators. It looked as though it might bo a plcco of gas tilpo , nnd there wns n mysterious look nbout It that Instantly brought the word "dynnmlto" to the llpi of someone. There wns n scnttcrntlon , nnd no ono seemed anxious to rollovo Abbott of his unwelcome burden. Gradually , however , Jho crowd gathered around and began to specu late ns to what the bomb might contain , nnd what object anyone could have In trying to blow up the court house or the city building. "Let's have It. " llnally exclaimed City Clerk Xurmuehlcn , waving a screw driver In the air , and ns ho spoke n determination to dlo for his country If ncccssnry spread over his face and made his careworn features almost beautiful. The crowl gathered about him at a respectful distance nnd watched htm pry away on the scaling nt the end of the pipe , fully expecting to sco tils hcnd nnd his heels part company nnd start out to sco the world In opposite directions. Hut they wcro woefully disappointed. There wns not 'tho slightest sign of n sensation of that kind , nnd when nt last the scaling was broken nnd n dirty , whitish cake of powdery stulf fell out there wns a look of disgust upon the features of the people who had been fully expecting annihilation a few min utes before. The "bomb" was Ignomlnl- ously chucked out Into the street and fell with n d , s t that proclaimed it entirely harmless. It wns a sample cake of cement , a reminiscence of public improve ments of by-gone years.

There is a place in tlio western part of the cify which demands the immediate attention of the city authorities. It is the Indian creek bridge on Seventh avcnuo , The south foul-path connects with the road on the cast end , but on the west there is a jumping oil place which would drop a man thrco or four feet. Luckily It is the north side or the bridge which is used almost entirely , so that accident have so far been avoided. Tlicro is nothing in the world , however , to prevent the south side from being used as well , excepting the fact that there Js ncr sidewalk on that side of the slreet. Any one unacquainted with the lay of the land passing along on n dark night would very likely bo hurled over the end of the bridge nnd a big damage suit ngaitist the clly would bo Iho inevitable result. 11 Is a pure matter of luck that such a thing has not happened already. Tlio city authorities , who lost the city $3,1100 a week or so ago by their recklessness in allowing the Interstate Street Hallway company to keep North Eighth street obstruclcd with Its pieces of track , have learned n lesson , it Is to bo hoped , and will doubtless do something to prevent more expensive litigation.

J. M. Tobias , street commissioner , re ported the damage by Saturday night's storm ns published In Tun Bcc , stating ttmt ho had found all Iho bad places. Ho stated that about ! 100 foot of sidewalk had been washed away hi Albright and considerable of It was lost. In hundreds of places the sidewalks Jmd been moved and dropped down. Ho called the attention of the coun cil to the dangerous condition of the side walk In front of lot C , block 70 , on Twenty- sixth street , also lot 113 , block 81 , on U street. Clark Howard , inspector nt the stock yards , reported that during May ho had condemned six head of cattle , average price 5-1 per head. Montgomery & Dowd as attorneys nsltod $1,000 elamages on account of clmngo of grade in the alley between Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth , fromM to N streets. On account of sand and clay being washed from the alloy onto Ins lot , 0 , block 113 , John F. Murphy asked the council to relm burse his loss. The chief of police was Instructed to notify In writing the property owners to repair the sidewalks where they are dangerous at once. The city attorney said that these dangerous places should bo fenced In at once , and free the city from danger of suits for damaec. On motion of Conlcy the street commissioner was empowered to make all necessary repairs on streets and employ what help he needs at once. Ex-Counciliuan IohnJ. O'ltourkoaddressed the council on needed repairs on the streets in the Third want. IIo referred especially to a bad place at Thirtieth and Ryan streets and the road along the pond at Jetter brewery. C. M. Hunt handed In a long communlca' tion asking f500 damages on account of bad paving and guttering adjacent to bis build ing at Twenty-sixth and N streets. To Tax tlio I'olcB and Wires. Bulla reported , 'that his committee had waited on the manager of the street rail way company to ask tlicm to complete their line across the Viaduct , but wns told that ono of the directors was sick and could not attend lo the matter at once. Mr. Smith s.\id ho would bring the matter before Ills company. This comnyttco has been at work on this ono errand for.about a month and has been unable to get any satisfaction. After Bulla hud" made his report Mayor Walker suggested that If the council put a tax on the street car c&mpany's poles and wires in the city it would elo some good to wards getting them to nc.t. Conlcy thought this should not bo done until nftcr the com pany olllcinls had said what they intend to do. There the matter rested. Mr. Mahoney , owner of the building nt Twenty-flfili und N streets , reported a nuisance at this place. Every time there is a heavy rain his basement acts as a catch basin for all the lllth and garbage above him , The grade of the lot next to him Is the cause of the nuisance , and Mr. Mahoney would like to have the council compel the owner of it to fill it to grado. On motion of Wyman , the city garbage master was in structed to look after the case and the com munication was placed on file. The city engineer was instructed to'mako necessary repairs on the west end of the P street viaduct caused by the recent storm.

A school teacher over in Snrpy county , nbout two miles south of South Omaha , by the name of Lytlo , was called down by the directors on last Friday night und given short notice to leave the country. His term would not expire for thrco weeks yet , but the reports that reached the parents of some of the pupils were enough to cause his immediatedismissal. . Lytlo Is a married man and has three children. His family lives at Pacilic Junction. ' It is lucky that Lytlo got away when ha did , " said the father of ono of his scholars tea a BEB reporter last evening , "or ho might have mot with n tar und feather reception.

I began to feel hotter at once. When two bottles were gene I could got no moro at Orwell nnd discontinued Its use until I cuma back to Townnda. But 1 certainly had loss pain in my kidneys , had no cramps , and could sloci > and rest nearly nil n-ght. When I wont into the court house on my return.
