NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS lichtnoud Stands a Pine ( Jlmnco of Escap ing Punishment by Latf , INDICTMENT RESTS ON POOR BASIS Letter * Mndo the ronndntlon of the l rial , If Admitted , Will Not Mmw Cause for Crlrnhml I'rni < PIIII | Agalnit the DttfiuUiit. When federal court adjourned last evening t looked very much as though the criminal irosetiitlon of W. S Richmond , charged with islng the malls for the distribution of letters relating to a scheme to defraud , would come o an untimely death. Ju-Ji.e Shlras has no\v under advisement a matter which will de- ernilnc the question ono way or the other his morning. Yesterday District Attorney 'tiller offered In evidence the two letters vrltton by Richmond upon which the Indlct- nr-nt was based. They were promptly ob- ected to by the attorneys for the defense on the ground that they contained nothing calculated to Induce any one to Invest money n a fraudulent concern , and a heated argu- ncnt ensued The defense contended that on their face ho letters were no basis for an Indictment ; hey were simply ordinary business letters , such as might bo written about any concern > y any straightforward business man. Not a word was contained In them In the nature of in Inducement to purchase stock. After this question had been debated pro and con for a couple of hours , the attorneys for the defense dropped by the vvnjstde , for the court showed plainly by his remarks that he was with them. Thcso letters were not contained In the In dictment , but It contained an allegation to the effect that they wcro omitted by reason of heir great length. The attorneya for the de- 'etise , at the opening of the trial several weeks ago , sought to have the district attor- icy required to set forth copies of the letter , jut Judge Woolson held that the reason for their oml slon as stated was sufficient. This lid away with the possibility of having the suit dismissed on a demurrer , and the only alternative was to try the case on Its merits Yesterday was the first time the contents of lie letters have really become an Issue In the : rlal , although the readers of The Bco arc familiar with them. In the course of the argument Judge Shlras ; ave It as his opinion that the government liad the weak end of the case. If the Indict- ncnt had been brought on the strength of the circulars which Richmond had scattered broadcast over the state , It would have been very different. These circulars contained al- cged statements of the condition of the com pany , which was set forth In a very flatter- ng light If these statements were false and fraudulent , the government would have a ; oed pilma facie case against the defendant , ijut he could not sco the significance all the testimony as to Richmond's transactions had , n view of the contents of the letters. Nev- rtliclcss , although ho was clearly Inclined to refuse to admit the letters In evidence , he declined to rule on the question until he had taken further time for consideration Ho will decldo It this morning. GJOOD GOVKIINJIKNT L.UUUi : AIUI.TM ! > Lively Discussion of tlio Cltj' Financial Con dition mid the VVuy Out. The Good Government league held another meeting at the superior court room last evening. Only a handful were present , but the debate was not the less vigorous on that account. The committee on retrenchment and reform made Its report through James McCabe , less widely known as "John Rustlcus. " It ex pressed surprise that the city officials should take exception to the wholesale charges of boodlerlsm that were launched at their heads at the last meeting , and then rehashed the matters that wcro brought before the club at that meeting. Some one Introduced n question relative to the Issuance of $10,000 In water fund warrants when the city had no money with which to pay them , and no chance of getting any. McCabe's answer to this brought Spencer Smith to his feet in defense of the present city administration. H had done well , he said , to keep the ciedlt of the city up to Its present high standard and reduce the bonded Indebtedness during the last few years. He explained that one reason the present administration had had to rustic for funds so hard lay In the fact that the Interest on special assessment bonds had come duo twice a > ear and had to be paid by the city , while the city had col lected the Interest from the property owners only once a year , and then only on the pay ment that fell duo that jear In this way the city had constantly run behind , until U became necessary to make up the deficiency by the usa of vigorous measures. A transfer of ? 25.000 had been made from the police fund to the general fund and usetl In paying the interest , and then general fund warrants had to be Issued to make up this deficiency. The mldeeds of former adminis trations were responsible for the condition In which the present administration found Itself , and it had done the best It could , and that , he thought , was very well Indeed. McCabe replied that If the officials issued general fund warrants every one of them ought to be In the penitentiary. He read a vast array of figures and talked of the al leged crookedness of city cfficers. Smith replied that lie did not represent the government , but was present only as a citizen who did not want to see the city's credit needlessly attacked. He then read a lot of figures which showed that since 1S01 the bonded Indebtedness had bsen reduced from $911,578 to $823.772. Judge James said that Included special as sessment bonds , which were paid by the property owners , and not by the city , which acted merely as a guarantor. Then Smith road some more figures , in which ho proved that the general bonded Indebtedness line been reduced from $140,000 to $140,000 In the same length of time The result of all the discussion was the pnctage of a resolution stating It as the sen timent of the club that the changing of gen eral fund warrants Into Judgments and the pu > rnent of general fund warrants from the Judgment fund ought to be done awny with McCabe wanted an addenda tacked on stat ing that If the city council did not carry cut the wishes of the club the club would take measures , legal or otherwise to see that II did. but the club refused to sanction an > thing that savored so much of war on the city gov ernment On motion of L W. Ross the Judiciary committee was Instructed to Inquire Into the terms and duration of the city's contracl with the water works company. He also recommended that the question be looket Into whether It was not time to make a change In the law regulating the power of cities to make public improvements , but no tfctlon wr.s taken. The club adjourned for two weeks. H. M. VVIIlliinnon Carries tha largest stock of high grade bicy cles of any Oealer In the west.

TO MAI.NTAIN 1IIK CITY'S CHKUIT Council 1'lnn * for HcfmicJIni ; llomli and Mnlirl n Miitoinent. The city council held a meeting yesterday afternoon for the purpose of taking action with reference to the proposed refunding of city bonds. Mason , Lewis & Co. agreed to take $40,000 worth of bonds running twenty years , giving the city the privilege of taking them up at any time after ten years , nt a premium of J228 , the bonds to bear 4 % per cent Interest. During the post few days It has been discovered that the city had no legal authority to issue ten and twenty-year bonds , but only Ihe and twenty. These , of course , were less tempting to the capitalists who were looking for long Investments , and Mason , Lewis & Co. declined to take them at more than their par value. They agreed , however , to have the bonds llthograhped at their own expense , which , under the old ar rangement , would have had to be done by the city. Councllmen Spetmnn , Brewlck and Bar- stow , City Treasurer Gorham and Auditor Gould , who were appointed a committee to float the bonds , made a report to the council stating these facts , nnd the report was adopted and the sale authorized. With the money thus brought into the city treasury the old 6 per cent bonds will be redeemed The statements made at a recent meeting of the "Good Government club" were con sidered derogatory to the city's credit , and , although nothing was said about the club It self , it was easy to see what gave rise to the following resolution , which was unani mously adopted and ordered published to the world : Whereas , It has come to the attention of the members of the city council that re ports nre In circulation In regard to the Indebtedness of this city which are , in our Judgment , Incorrect nnd untrue , nnd which already have done nnd are calculated to do Brent nnd Irreparable Injury to the credit nnd financial good standing of the city , and , Whereas We nre advised by eminent legal counsel that the Indebtedness of the city does not now and never has exceeded the limit Imposed bv the constitution of the state , therefore , be It Resolved , That the following btatem n' of the clt > 's Indebtedness be submitted for publication INnniiTEDNTSS MARCH 15 , ISO" .
