An Important decree was received yester
day by Iho clerk of the district court from
Judge Green. The decree Is In the form
of a permanent Injunction which forever
bars the city of Council Bluffs from entering -
ing upon the premises and right of way of
the Chicago , llock Island & Pacific Hallway
company through Riddle's subdivision or at
tempting to open a street or public thor
I oughfare at Seventh street , between Thir
teenth and Fourteenth avenues. This Is
Judge Green's final decision In the fight
made by Iho city to compel the Rock Island
to open a crossing at Seventh ctreet. The
city council has passed numerous resolu
tions In answer to moro numerous petitions
ordering the railway company to open Ihu
Blreot , which It was claimed to bo occupying
without authority from the city. The reso
lutions were productive of no results , and
the city finally ordered the city marshal , as
Its executive olficer , to tear down the ob-
elructlons Iho railway company had placed
nt the point where the ctreet was supposed
to bo located This resolution , which was
adopted last fall , produced an unlocked for
rcoult 'In the shape of nn application for a
temporary Injunction restraining the officer
( rom executing the orders of thb council
The temporary Injunction was granted and
the tlmo for hearing the arguments fixed
for December 28. The city presented Its cane
and tlio attorneys for the railway made llui
contrary showing. The contention of the
railway company wns thai Its original charier
nnd grant of right of way llu-d the street
crossings and that the city had no right at
a later date to change the plat and fix ad
ditional crossings without Its consent. This
consent had never been secured , and the
railway company maintained Its rights
Judge Green took the case under advise
ment. Hla decree yesterday fully sustains
the railway company in all of Its conten
tions.
The only way the city can now proceed
to open the street Is to condemn the property
In the usual form and pay the damages. This
will likely bo done at lama time not far
in the future , for the residents In the vi
cinity complJin bitterly of being shut out
from iiccctisary slicct privileges.

Injunction , which was received at the court
house jcsterday , was given to the council
by City Attorney Hazclton before Iho alder
men met last evening. The situation was
thoroughly -understood by the aldermen and
Huro was no necessity for discussing It. A
resolution was Introduced illrrcllng the city
attorney to take the case to the supreme
court at once and lo resist stienUously all
of the pretensions of the inllvvay company
to Its exclusive right to the streets. The

ment of the house was referred reporled lhe-
cost In detail of the proposed improvement.
The maximum aggregate cost of the lot ,
building nnd equipment of the house , with
n small chemical engine , was $2,800 , and the
minimum cost was fixed at ? 2G10. The re
port was crlHcU ° cl bj Casper , who declared
that the estimate of cost was far too small
and that It would eventually cost the city
between $6,000 and $10,000. Shub ° rt moved
that trie matter be referred to the commit

Judge Thornell and n jury In the district
court spent nil day jesterday listening to
the evidence In n suit brought by Jerome
Jeffries against I. II. Snjdcr to recover pay
ment for $1,000 worth of household goods
which Snjder sold on Oclobor 3 lo secure
pavment of $43.10 storage charges.
Jeffries wns n resident of Council Blurts
for several > ears , nnd held the pcslHon as
division superintendent and general agent
for n life Iniurance company. His business
made It necessary for him last summer to
spend the greater part of his tlmo on the
road , and ho broke up housekeeping for the
time , slorlng his household goods In Sn > -
dcr's warehouse. They remained In storage
for more than six months , during which time
Jeffries failed to make any payments on
etorngo charges. In lhe meantime Snvder
closed out his business and moved to Omaha.
All of lhe goods Ihat had been In his waro-
rooma for a period of six months nnd longer
were advertised for sale In the form pre
scribed by the Iowa laws , and during the
clearing out fcale last October they weio
sold to Iho highest bidders. The total
amount realized was $2 ? ! > . " 0 The storage
charges and the coat of sale aggregated
$77.87 , nnd after deducting this amount
the balance , $15783 , wa < deposited In the
counly tieasurcr's office , subject to the or
der of the owner of the household goods.
Jeffries did not feel kindly over the sacri
fice of his household treasures , and he
brought suit against Snjder for their full
value , $1,000 , and also asked the court to
award him $2,000 damages. Jeffries was
In the witness box tor a large part of the
day ycslerday , and from the schedule of the
property sought to establish Its value. His
Palmer In the witness
brother-in-law , , was
box during the remainder of the day to cor
roborate the testimony. Jeffries testified that
the only notification ho had that the goods
were to bo sold was conlalned in a letter
from Snjder which contained the laconic
Information"Your goods will be sold to
morrow. " This letter , he claimed , reached
him at Kansas City the day after the date
fixed for the sale.
Snjder bases.hls defense chiefly upon the
fact that the sale was conducted -wholly
within the law , and Hint Jeffries had ample
notification of the contemplated sale.

WASHINGTON , March 2. President Cleve
land has suffered for a , week past with rheu
matic gout , which has now assumed such
proportions that there la some question
whether he will be able to take part In the
Inngural ceremonies at tha capital on March
4 , though he is taking special care of him
self In order that he may perform hla part
in the ceremonies. While his condition is
not sjch as lo exclle any alarm , it is ex-
tremelv painful. Secretary Thurber admitted
today that the president was confined to his
bed. Surgeon Steinberg of the army vvau
called in yesterday. Ho said that rest and
nursing were all that were needed to put the
president * back on his feet , but he advised
quiet and as little worry as possible over
official duties.
Tor several days the president has been
receiving no vlptors and all his office work
has been transacted sitting at his desk with
ono leg Bwash ° d in bandages 'and resting on
a chair. Today he was not able even to go
to Ilia office. Thepresident's condition is
causing anxiety to sanators and represenla-
tlvco of both parties who fear that It may
cause him to leave unsigned a number of
minor bills of particular Interest to the mem
bers who have been pushing- them and which
otherwise would have received the piesl-
dent's signature before the close of bia term
of office.
The last meeting of the cabinet was held
today , but for the first tinie It was conducted
without the presence of life chief magistrate ,
He remained In his private apartmenls and
all mailers have bean referred lo him Ihere.
As lo the possibility of the president's in
ability lo attend the Inaugural exercises ,
Secrelaiy Thurber eaid loday : " 1 fear there
Is , but ho will go If ho can force himself to
do it. "
Captain Hoblcy D. Evans called this mornIng -
Ing to arrange for the duck shooting trip that
was to be taken Hie latter part of the week
Mr. Cleveland had Intended to leav ? Thurs
day afternoon for the south , but It is now
more than probable that the trip will have
to be abandoned. *
At the cabinet meeting today it was agreed
thai no new subjects should b taken up
for conslderallon In Ihe meeting nor old
Issues bo advanced , except where absolutely
necessary , the purpose being to avoid any
possible embarrassment to Iho incoming ad
ministration.
Several of the members called upon Mr.
Cleveland a'ter the adjournment of the meet-
Ing. They will make no formal call upon
Mr McKlnley until March p , which tlma the
lesignatlont" of all of them , already In writIng -

OMAHA , March 1. To the Editor ot The
Bee : Canon Whltmarsh In a sermon re
ported In The Bee Informs the public "why
he is not a Baptist. " His stalement of
reasons Is dlgnlfiea and generally clear. The
canon hns not forgotten his Baptist training
when he lays down ns his first position that
every one should join that church which Is
"nearest to Hie apostolic church In theory
and practice "
His oDcond stalement , which declares that
baptism Is "a channel of forgiveness to the
true penltenl , " Is not expreb&ed ia the lan
guage of the apostles. Baptism is never
called a channel of anything In the New
Testament. Hero the canon departs from
hla fiist position , which requires a church to
be just like "tho apostolic church in theory
and practice. " Ha does not allow the Lord
or His apostles to define baptism , but he
Introduces n word wholly foreign to their
mode of thinking and speaking. "Tho Lo-d
made and baptized disciples , " that Is Ho
made them first and then baptized them
He accepted Hiem and then baptized. In
the last commission the Lord has the same
idea of the place of baptism where ho says :
"Ho that bclloveth and Is bapllml shall be
saved. " He is lo believe first , and as a
believer he Is to be baptized. Now a be
liever is already forgiven , for "with the heart
man bclleveth into righteousness ; " "Believe
on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be
saved. " Baptism cannot be a channel of
forgiveness because a believer Is already
forgiven. If ther-3 Is any "channel of for-
glvenefes , " It Is simply faith In the Savior.
The third statement of the canon Is juot
as foreign to the Ideas of Christ and the
apostles as the second , for ho says that the
Holy Spirit Is Imparted In baptism. " The
aposlles received the Holy Spirit long after
their baptism , an Cornelius oomethno before
his bapllsm. It was the hands of the
apostles Hint Impaitcd the Holy Spirit to the
Samaritan believers.
Tha fourth statement of the canon Is like
wise utterly foreign to the ideas of Christ
and the apostles. Nowhere In the New
Testament Is baptism mentioned in the same
passage with infanta , Nowhere In that
book are wo told that baptism takes the
place of circumcision , There may bo argu
niontt ) for Infant baptism , but they cannot
ba found in the book. Au Schlclermachor
eald ; "Any argument for Infant baptism
must bo put Into the New Testament be
fore it can be found thsre. "
The canon's first position Is a good one , but
bo deparls from It In his fifth statement , as
ho did In the other three. After admitting
"tho original meaning of the Greek
word from which baptism comes to ba Im
mersion , " ho flics to a secondary meaning.
He claim ; ) that "tho whole question of mode
hangs on the time when this secondary mean.
ing was attached to the word , " The canon
is too good a scholar to dare to say that
"water applied as a religious rlto" was a
meaning of the Greek word In the time of
the apoutlcs. Yet If ho does not dare to
nay this he Is bound to return to the Baptist
fold , for ho eaja that "the whole question
of mode hangs on Iho time when this occ-
ondary meaning was atlached lo the word , "
and he further says Hint every one must
join "that church which la nearest to Ihe
apostolic church In theory and practice. "

which thousands of people practice almost

the walls of the stomach nnd bowels nnd

Iho intestines , causing death by inflamma
tion or peritonitis
