Th action of the city council , abetud by Mayor Cleaver , ordering a retrenchment In the various departments of city work , has provoked no end of discussion , and the opin ions cf the public are pretty well divided. Some approve of It , on the ground tliat the city haa gone on ii.endlnR more than It * In- cotne for a Ions time now , and It Is about time H' Now Year'p resolution be made to live within Ita Income. This Is the light In which a large proportion of the taxpayers look at the matter. On the other hand , tlisre I * quite a considerable number of people who think this Is simply ono of the schemes that ate wont to be sprung on an unsuspecting P'ibllc about the time lumcbody or othsr In looking for a chanc * to get a rennmlnatlon. They do nnt have much fallh In the sincerity of the motives behind the action , and consequently quently take sides "agin" the government. There are some ulio are even unkliid enough to nay that the council might have slioun Its sincere df'lre for reform by cut- tins the mayor's $1,200 salary In two , and Mint the mayor could likewise have img- gcst'd that the oouncllmcn turn four-fifths of tlnlr snlarlf. " back Into the city treasury and work for their health and the good of the city.At At all cventt' , the p'an does not seem to wo'k with the whole-souled unanimity that was hoped for. Mayor Cleaver has done half his duty as laid down In the order by letting out Detective Weir. He will do the other half January 1 , when L. 13. Cousins will be discharged from the forct > to take a position under the new county sheriff. City Engi neer Ettiyre has ? kicked out of ths traces and says that he cannot do the work required of him If the order Is carried Into execution , and nothing has ye' been done by Chief Templeton to reduce the fire department. As was Intimated In an Interview with Mayor Cleaver published In The' Ree the morning after the report of the committee was heard , the clause of the report referring to a consolidation of the marshal's and po lice department , seems to have bsen made up largely of wind. The Intimation was glvon the appearance of gospel truth by the failure of the council to pass an ordinance doing away with the Office of chief of police. The city marshal's office Is created by stat ute , and cannot be done away with excepting by the action of the legislature. The ofllc ? of chief of police , however , Is made by or- dlrance , so that If the council had a really sincere desire to rip the finances of the city up the back It could do so ulthout much trouble. It passed a resolution dealing with several other departments , but said not a word about the "consolidation" scheme. A week ngo last Slonday night Mayor Cleaver stated to a Bee reporter that he did not think the ofllco of chief of police would bj abolished , at least for some time. That was not the kind of "consolidation" that was wanted. The plan was to move the police office Into the Jail building and do av.ay with a day man and a night man , letting one man at nights attend to both departments. Until the "citizens' reform" movement carried , about seven years ngo , the two offices were together , and no se rious trouble wns had , although It Is re lated by people who were on the Inside at that tlmt that for weeks at a time the mar shal and chief would decline to recognize each other's existence , even by n nod. Those were cat-and-dog timer , but the hope of those pushing the scheme Is that dispositions of office holders have been Improved by seven yccrs spent In fasting and self-denial. In DCS Mclnes the two offices hava been conp.illdatcd In a different way for several years , It being commonly understood when a man Is elected mayor that the man who Is elected to the office of marshal shall be appointed chief of pollcs also. This brings both departments under ono head without any of the friction resulting Irom the plan now proposed , and It Is very likely that as the subject has now begun to ba agitated , one or ths- other of the parties will find it necessary to Incorporate a plank provid ing for such a move In Its platform. IX VOll HOUGHING IT aUlTJS EAUI/V. Tivo Infant HOJH llorrn-r n ttlK imA Start on n I'li'iiuurc Jntnit. J. B. Miller , a farmer living near the city limits on East Broadway , left his horse and wagon hitched last Wednesday evening on Broadway , near the corner of Main street whlls h ? went Intoa store to make some purchases. When he came out a short tlmo later ths rig had disappeared. He organ ized himself Into a special detective service and started out over the country to hunt for It. Ho had not been out very long before he heard that It wan In the possession of the two boys , ono of whom had a coanskln cap on. With this as a clew he traveled over most of the western half of the county , hear ing scraps of news hero and there , and con stantly following up new clews. Yesterday afternoon he was driving along the road from Glenwood to Council Bluffs and came to a secluded epot about two miles below the city , when he saw a hors * and faded-out wagon that had a familiar look. The two boys and the coonskln cap were there , too , and he greeted them cordially. He asked them where they wore going , and they told him Glenwood. He got down from his wagon , and after a moment's Inspection told them ho would see that the rig got back to Council Bluffs , and told them to Jump In and rldo with him. 'They did so , and when the party arrived at thesheriff's office In the court house the two boys looked rather woe begone. They were Freddie and Willie Strong , 9 and 11 years old , respectively , and the pens of Joe Strong , who lives In the poor hcuso on South Eighth street , and has been supported by the county for years. They had spent six nights camping out , and would have been ready for some more had they not bcon caught , notwithstanding they were so cold that their noses were blue nnd they almost shivered out of their ragged booty. Miller took them up to Justice Vlen's court room , where ho filed an Information charging them with larceny. Although he has been deprived of the use of the horse and wagon for a week ho Is considerably better provided with miscellany , for the wagon contained a box of corn , a feathen pillow , an assortment of old overcoats , the fragments of an old steve , and a lot of other things more notable for variety than utility. The two boys had gotten them all by begging along the road. They told a pitiful tale of the abuse at thtt hands of their father , which had driven them from home. The old man goes around from house to house collecting garbage. His brys claim that onp time he ordered them to cat the garbage. They refused , and ho beat them Into submission with a horse whip. He has frequently punished them In thla way , and they were afraid to go horn ? last night for fear of the consequence. . Jus tice Vlen will have them up for a hearing this afternoon at - o'clock , and will prob ably refer them to the district court as candidates for the reform school. There Is a vtrong probability that their father will bo called upon to explain the treatment he has been giving them.

The Graham-Leut7lnger case came to an ending very quickly yesterday , when the Jurymen finally got a chance to illspo ? ; of It. At the opsnlng of court In thei afternoon Tlnley talked for three hour ? and Sims fin ished for the plaintiff In two hours. The case reached the Jury about supper time. Their minds were evidently made up before the jurymen reached the Jury room , for the dis cussion was over , the verdict reached , signed and delivered to the court before S o'clock. The Jury was of the opinion that the woman was entitled to a small part of Lcutzlnger's wealth , and awarded her } 1,000 , Instead of the { 40,000 sued for on account of the old gentleman's failure to maks her his wife. The verdict created some surprise , for the general belief In court house circles was that the plaintiff had not made a strong case.

It the question comes up again It Is freely predicted that a majority of the board will not be found opposing the Idea. Member Thomas , speaking on the subject last night , said : "I think the board has no right to say what the teachers shall do with their Idle time. It any ot them desire to teach private classes , and can dose so without Interfering with their school duties , It seems to me that the extra work Is only In the line of their advancement , and that the board Is going out ot Its way to Interfere with their private affairs. I favored this Idea at the last meeting , and do so still , and If the matter comes up again I shall vote as I did before.

ESIl'EUCm WILLIAM'S LATEST TALK. Count * Upon the Army to Uefviid tliv Fiithcrliiiul. BUESLAU , Dec. 3. At the dinner given yesterday by the cuirassiers of the guard , In celebration of the anniversary of the battle of Champlgny , Emp ror William Eald that the hours he had parsed In the society of hi ? comrades were the recreation In the toilsome and laborious life which he led. The day , he continued , could not be better celebrated than vowing once more to preserve and de fend what the great emperor and his gen erals created at that date. Ills majssty concluded : "The more I go beneath party watchwords and party Interests , the more I count upon the army and the more I hops the army abroad or at homo will be ready to yield faithful obedience to my desires and guiding will. I trutt for this to the spirit which prevails In this regiment and I recall the words which my grandfather addressed to the officers at Coblentz , after the hard times of 1848. when he said : 'These are the centle- men on whom I rely. ' "Inspired by this sentiment , I drink lo th : prosperity of the Cuirassier regiment , which I hope will ever do honbr to the name of the- great empire. " I'rnn.liin Minister UlNiiilHNOil , BERLIN , Dec 3. The report that Baron von Koeller , the Prussian minister of the Interior , had been dismissed on account of the recent strong measures he has Insti tuted against the socialists , crdcrlng the closing of their clubs and the searching of their residences. Is confirmed. Previous to his departure for Breslau the emperor caused Herr Von Lucanlus , chief of the civil cabinet of his majesty , to make a special report In the case of Prof. Delbrueck , who was to have been prosecuted for a very mild statement In the contervatlve Preusslche Jahrbucher. referring to the Internal policies of the empire and criticising Baron Von Keller - ler for his wholesale prosecution of socialists. His majesty afterward conferred with Prince Hohenlobe , the chancellor , and the latter h < Eald to have Informed the emperor that he would bo compelled to tender his resignation unless Von Koeller was dismissed. Dr. Von Schoenstedt. the Prussian minister of jus tice , also offered to resign , but was not per mitted to do 03. A dispatch to the Dally News from Berlin says that It was stated In the lobbies of the Kelchstag today that Baron von Kosller had crdcred the dissolution of the- socialist clubs , which act Is supposed to bo the cause of hU dismissal , without consulting the chancellor , Prince Holienlohe , or his colleagues.

JOIIX BULL HAY ACT AlONE Sir Philip Ourrio Tolls the Xml ftssatlors His Government ia Tiretl'of'Deky , STARTLING RUMOR FROM CONSTANTINOPLE Urporti-il ( hn ( Ori-nl llrllithi Ilni tic- olilcil to Si-ntl Her IViJr1 Slilpn to the HnipliortU 'liy Next Snttinlnfi CONSTANTINOPLE , Dec. 2. ( Via Sofia , Bulgaria , Dec. 3. ) It Is reported here this afternoon that after the meeting of the ambassadors , Sir Philip Currle. the British ambassador , notified the Turkish government taht If the firmans asked for were not granted hy next Saturday a llrltlsh gunboat would bo rent through the straits of Dardanelles without the sultan's permission , to act as an extra guardshlp In .the Bosphorus , for the protection of the British embassy. Efforts to obtain confirmation or denial of the re port have proved futile. The almost complete absence of news from the provinces renders It dldlcult to form on estimate of the situation as to the'condition of Asiatic Turkey. The extent to which reform Is being pushed and the degree to which rioting has bean suppressed are the points which Influence the situation and serve as a guide to the possible action of the power ? . Of course , all cause for Inter vention wll be done away with to all Intents and purposes , ' If , as the almost complete silence would Indicate , order has been prac tically restored and there have been no further serious outbreaks. But In diplo matic circles here nobody seriously believes this to be the case. It Is almott certain that at thla Juncture no one of the powers Is desirous of Intervening. Uiitsla could hardly do BO otherwise than by land , and winter Is approaching rapidly , which would mfnu the most extreme difficulty In moving troops , and Great Britain is hardly prepared to act alone unless under extreme provocation. Such provocation. It Is believed , tha sultan will take care not to offer If he can help It. WARLIKE PREPARATIONS. The work of strengthening the fortifica tions of the Dardanelles continues night and day. The soldier ? are busily at work throw- up fresh defenses , and the most busy scenes are witnessed from the entrance of the Dar danelles to the other side of Gallipot ) . In addition the Bosphorus entrance of the sea of Marmora Is being placed In condition for defense. Many torpedoes have been sunk In both pasjages , and this work Is being pushed with astonishing vigor. So far as can bfa judged without the ab sence of definite news the most serious dis turbances threatened or In progress are In Palestine , a fresh outbreak being reported at Caerarla and at Konleh , and In the Mecca districts. It Is'stated , however , that all Is quiet In the Slvas district , and a dispatch from Aleppo announces that there Is every prospect of persuading the Armenian Insurgents at Zel- toun to cease 'hostilities. The Armenian patriarch here , at the re quest of the representatives of the powers , has been doing what he can In this matter , the ambassadors having assured him that the Turkish government had given the most solemn pledges that the Armenians should not be massacred or punished If they sur rendered to the authorities. Th.3 work of arming and equipping the reserves has been almost suspended , although the troops are still kept at their mustering places. The Turkish authorities say this Is because there will be no us for their serv ices , as order Is being gradually restored In all the troubled districts. On the other hind , the Armenians claim that the government cannot equip the reserves , owing to lack of money. The British ambassador , Sir Philip Currle , has been most active since his .return here from London , and. In addition to attending all the meetings of the ambassadors , he has made personal calls , upon several of them , and. It Is understood , has dlscusied the sltua- lon In dstall from all standpoints. ROME , Dec. 3. H was reported here today that Great Britain had decided to glvo the sultan of Turkey.until Saturday next to Is sue the firman for ths passage of an extra guardshlp through tha straits of Darda nelles. It Is also stated that If the nec essary permission Is not forthcoming at the end of that tlmo the British guardshlp will bo sent through the straits without the sul tan's permission. Italy Is said to endorse the action of the British. In official circle ? no onfirmatlon of this report can be obtained. BERLIN , Dec. 3. A dispatch from Con stantinople to the Frankfort Zoltung says that Sir Philip Currle , the British ambassa dor , had an Interview with Tewflk Pasha , the Turkish minister for foreign affairs , during which the former notified the latter that Great Britain allowed Turkey until Satur day next In which to grant the permission for an additional guardshlp to pass the Dardanelles for the protection of the British embassy at Constantinople. In the event of a refusal the Frankfort Zeltung's dispatch adds , Sir Philip Informed Tekflk Pasha that a British gunboat would ba sent through the Dardanelles without the permission asked for. It Is further stated that Italy endorsed the action of Great Britain in this matter. The Interview alluded to Is believed to have taken place yesterday. Inquiries made In official circles here- fall to elicit a confirmation of the report. CORPSES BY THE WAGON LOAD. LONDON , Dec. 3. The Dally News correspondent at Constantinople says : "A letter from an European at Mars- evan sayo that on Saturday after the inacsacre there was a ghastly spectacle- the edge of the Armenian cemetery. Corpses wcro brought by the wagon load and tossed upon the ground In heaps. Aside from the rifling cf the bodies by the perpetrators of the slaughter , a hyena-like , horde of bar barians pounced upon these heaps and stripped the dishonored carcasses of what poor clothing they had. leaving them In all degrees of nudity. Finally about noon a score of Armenians , headed by a priest , went under protection of soldiers to bury the corpses. Eighty-three of them were laid In a single trench. Probably about 100 of them were klllfd. " The Vienna correspondent of the Dally News pays a telegram to the Turkish em bassy there last night ( Tuesday ) gays that the sultan has resolved to break all diplo matic relations If the powers lorco the Dar danelles. A dispatch from Rome to the Dally Newa says there Is great activity In all the Italian arsenals to prsparo the whole naval force of the country. The cruiser Pledmonte , the newest and fastest In .Ul ? Italian service , her speed blng twenty-onoi knots an hour , has been ordered to the Levant.

The money he ought to have Invested In a safe , re liable remedy went for a tombstone. The thought that killed this man HAS KILLED OTHERS. Statistics show that IX ) per cent of the deaths from pneumonia , IJrlght's disease and similar complaints are caused from derangements of the liver and kidneys. These great organs keep the blood pure and In healthful mo tion. When they get out of order the blood becomes poisoned , the circulation Impeded and the whole system speed ily breaks down. It Is A DANGEROUS IDEAte to imagine that pills can strike at the root of these diseases. It has been thoroughly proved that such remedies are worse than useless. There is only one remedy which can always be de pended upon. This remedy alone can act on the liver and kidneys when they are Out of order , clear out the system and build up the health. The name of this remedy Is Warner's Safe Cure. It Is the only standard remedy In the world for kidney and liver complaints. It Is the only remedy which physicians universally prescribe. It is Ihe only remedy that is backed by the test- ! money of thousands whom It has re lieved and cured. There is nothing else that can take Its place.
