The city council met In adJournt't1 eS- Rlon last nllhl. ; It was one of the most bus- Ineullke sessions of the year anti a big , lI'lst of routine business went through with a rush anl , without the usual oratorical ac. companlments. City Treasurer Dumont asked , for Instruc. tlons relative to the Issuance of tax cer ' tlficates from the treasurer's office and was referrcd to tJo finance commltlee. The treasurer - urer Htated that he found that the office was frequently called on to furnish certificates - cates , and that It hal , been customary to charge ; from 30 cents to $1 for these certificates - tificates , the revenue thus obtained being considered a perquisite of the office He had followed the practice formerly In vogue. and hall turned the fees thus obtained Into the general fund , They amounted to about $700 a . year. lie hall asked , the city attorney for a written opinIon , which was submitted with the communIcation The attorney stated that there was no law requiring the treasurer to furnish such certificates and It was entirely proper to charge ; a fixed rate for the time and labor Involved. 13OLSTIlt1NG DOLI N. The finance committee presented lengthy \ report , which was alleged ; to be a refutation of f the recent exposition In The Dee of the manner In whIch the city had suffered through the malfeasance oC henry Bolin. The figures cltell by the committee were exactly like those given by The Dee , though the cornl mlteo considered the amounts In the site end bulllllng funds as a. part of the gen- eral school fund The committee Md not refer to the Interest which Bolin had failed to pay on these amounts the sum of which would not be changed by considering It as transposed from a specIal to a general fund. Tim interest which Bolin Called to PlY over and In which the fraud consisted Is exactly - actly the same whether reckoned acordlns : ; to the figures ; of the committee or ab given In 'fho 13cc. howell characterized the report as a pure piece of political buncombe and Holmes In- qUlre,1 , why the commltt did ( not bring In the four experts whom It had hired by the year to look up these matters. The report ; was then declared adopted without a vote. An ordinance vacating certain streets anll I alleys In Vernon Heights was vetoed ' by Mayor Demls. The mayor contended that the vacation of the streets was simply a gift ! of so much land to the property owners lIesltles this Il would cut ore the access of owners .0C adjacent property and be likely to result In damage ! suit against the city The veto was sustained. SOlll11 VETOJ OVEnnIDDEN The contract of 1.amoraux flros. for grad Ing South Seventeenth street from Vinton to Castellar was also vetoed The city was to pay one. half the cost out of the road fund The city's share was $005,20. The mayor held that the fUlllls were In no condition to warrant such an expense. The street was not a . main thoroughfare and the work wa S not essential at this time. The veto was not sustained , and the contract was approved The mayor's veto of the 'blll of Thomas Casey for feeding city prisoners , $200,01. va S not sustained. The veto alleged - that the amount Included charges for doubb meals Another veto of a similar bill for the same reason met a like fate. The Board of Health notified the council that all employee of the board had bee : suspended on account of the exhaust of the . fund. The communication ' was placed on . file. Similar action was taken wIth thB official notice that feat Inspector Frank had twen suspended , pending the result of the Investigation - vestigation of his official misconduct by the police ) court. Commissioner Savlllo also submitted a statement of the funds that woulll be required - quired to run the health department during tlio remainder of the 'ear. lIe estimated that It would cost $3,305 to run the regular force , tlllt this coulll bo reduced to $2,745 by discharging the milk Inspector and two . sanitary Inspectors. The matter was referred - ferred to the finance committee.

Jlelatlvo to the decision of the supreme court lit Des Moines , la" , finding him guilty of body snatching and sentencing him to six montha In the penitentiary , John W. mS Schaeffer of the ( United States signal station In this clly. said : "On the night ; of February 2in : i , 1892 , nr. Over Ion , one of the professors In the medical s heel , came to me , and s mo some papers , sail ! he had gotten the proper Instruments by which he could dig up and take away the body at a pauper by the name of William Case , a man who hal dle.1 the preceding Ilay. We waited until after dark and went to the cemetery with- out any secrecy In the matter whatever. After opening the grave and taking out the subject , we were approached by olil- ers and placer ! under arrest. I had a pistol In my pocket , as wan my custom , but was not armed In anticipation of being at- tacked while getting the body. Two men who had assisted In the removal of the body were given thirty days In Jail , while Dr. Overton and myself were held to the criminal court. As soon as Overton was released on ball he skipped out , first going to London and then to Rio Janeiro , where he Is 'prac- ' icing t medicine at the present time. I stood trial. The jury voted eleven for acquittal allll one for conviction. I asked for a new trial for the reason of tim disagreement , was found guilty and took an appeal "I was not surprIsed over the decision of the supreme court , as I rather expected It. As yet I have received no official noti.e of the t action , but I am willing and ready to go back to Del : Moines the moment I hear from the authorities there I always will feel that an Injustice has been done me , for the reason that I thought the papers we had and which were somehow lost , were legal and permitted us to re- move the body. I am Innocent of a delib- rate wrong. If I do not get a pardon , or a rehearing , I will serve out my six months In i prison , and when I'm discharged wl11 go somewhere and practice my profession as a physician. " lIIr.

" 'rre : llle It'teutut- fists , blt thnt ! All. It appears now that all of the trouble caused by a dispatch from San Francisco , predicting ruin for the Union Pacific and the passing of the property Into the hands of a trust , to be administered by the government , . amounts to but mtle. The telegraph report of the litigation In the appellate court at San Francisco was sent out from that city last Saturday night. Local officials of the road were considerably puzzled over the item , as the charges made were very sweeping. The dispatch asserted that the main line of the Union Pacific , as well as its thirty-two branches , was implicated In the bul , and that the federal government had been Invoked to wrench the great trunk line and its feeders from their perilous exposure to the eager clutch of Innumerable creditors. The necessity for government intervention was based on the claim that the road and Its branches ought to be preserved under the law that makes them military and post roads. On thL phase of the question the complainant - ant In the federal court makes the following startling averments : The railroads and properties as now held anti controlled form Important trunk lines an their severance would result In a ruinous sacrifice to every Interest In the property : and unless this court , In view of the Impending and Inevitable defaults of the company , will deal with the property as a single trust fund all take I Into JUdicial custody for the protection of every Interest therein , individual creditors wilt assert their : remedies In different courts In the several I states and territories : that a race of diligence will result and judgments and priorities will be attempted : that levies and attachments wi be laid upon engines and cars of each of the many roads which will greatly Interfcre with and ultimately prevent the defendants ; from the proper ! discharge of their duties as I public carriers : that the transportation of the United States mails antI property will be C stopped : that the Union Pacific Railway company - pany wi bo unable to fulfill Its charter duo ties to the government of the United States : that commerCe between the several states will be Interfered with : that communication between many cities , town and places which C are wholly dependent on the roads , will be S Irterrupted : that serious and Irreparable Injury - jury to their trade and commerce and their general prosperity will result These later particulars of the nature of the suit have been received at headqlters I and have served to clear the matter up There Is not a mile of road In the Union Pacific - cilia system In CalornIa , and the local ofll- dais naturally were of the opinion that there was an error In the dispatches that foretold such direful things for the Overlallll system I appears now that the suit pending In the appellate court In San Francisco simply relates - lates to the Oregon Hallway & Navigation company that was commenced before Hecelver ! cNel was given charge of that system Thc receivers of the Union Pacific were made : defendants to the suit , and further than that th" litigation does not affect the UnIon 1'1- due In any respect. I Managers Could Not : Agree. The managers of the western lines did not do a thing In Chicago at the meeting called to consider the condition of freight rates In the west. The 11ourl , Kansas & Texas I would make no promises , and the other ! IIls- sourl river lines did not seem to be In an ) ' hurry to get back to ' the schedule figures on I freight business. The meeting adjourned I with the lnderstamlng-th-at Chairman lldge- ' Iy of the'Western Traffic as "claton'wouh } do , some mlssJonary work In trying , t6 get t the roads to agree to be good. He will cal I a meeting of the association as soon as the sinner who have been cuttIng rates show : any signs ; of repentalce and are willing to get : t back Into the association and have their transgression overlooked.
