The reports of City rrcc.suror J. A. Gorham
end the flnni.ce committee ot the city council ,
submitted , at the meeting of the council
Monday night , * how a condition ot the city's
finances that will bo the source of a good deal
of satisfaction to taxpayers. An excellent
opportunity Is al o afforded for the repub
lican management to congratulate Itself and
bo congratulated. In the midst ot universal
financial dlstiess , It Is a source ot satisfac
tion for the city government of Council
Bluffs to bn able to show that despite de
predated receipts , expenses have been less
than the Income and heavy reductions have
been made In the debt accumulated under
previous administrations. The reports show
that every dollar of the city's obligations
has been paid during the year and the
bonded debt reduced to the extent of many
thousand dollars. The report shows that the
total bonded debt of the city , which Includes
I2C2.000 Iraersectlon paving and scwcrago
bonds and $101,500 special assessment bonds
charged against abutting property and which
will bo paid without Increasing the general
assessment , la only $404,900. These Inter
section bonds nro the most troublesome portion
tion of the city's debt , and have been ac
cumulating since 1883. when the first paving
In the city was done. For many years there
was no prevision made In the way of a
sinking fund to redeem them , and the Inter
est was only kept paid , but recently a small
tax has , been annually levied to provide a
fund for their extinguishment. A change In
the state law which went Into effect last fall
prevents any accumulation of this kind of
Indebtedness In the future , for the cost of
Interactions will hereafter be distributed
amen , ? the property owners benefited. With
these bonds outstanding , constituting the
bulk of tbo debt , the total Indebtedness of the
city Is well within the constitutional limit.
A recapitulation of the treasurer's report for
the year shows the receipts and expenditures

The annual reports of the chief of police
nnd the marshal's departments contain some
Information that Is of Interest to the curious.
The report ot the chief of police shows that
thcro were 845 arrests made during the year.
These arrests were for almost every known
offense. The offenses chargeable to Intoxi
cants , however , took the lead In the number.
The tabular statement looks like this :
Drunk , plain , 121 ; drunk and disturbing the
peace , 24 ; drunk and vagrancy , 17 ; drunk
nnd carrying concealed weapons , 4 ; drunk
and using obscene language , 8 ; drunk and
sleeping on the street , 14 ; drunk and obscene
conduct , 12 ; drunk and fighting , 43.
Ot the men arrested the greatest number
were common laborers , of whom there were
303. There were fifty without occupation.
The farmers came next In the frequency
of arrest , with a total of seventy-two. The
Individuals classed officially as "sports"
made It necessary for forty-four arrests , and
twenty school boys got Into trouble with the
police. Cooks , -waiters and teamsters come
next. Every avocation known Is represented ,
with the exception ot ministers and news
paper men.
Of the nationality of those arrested , 670
were Americans , thirty-five Irish , twelve Ger
man , ono Indian , ten English , one Greek ,
four Swedes , ono Flnlander , nine Jews , one
Scotchman , one Austrian , three French
men , eighty-one colored , one Italian , one
Polandcr nnd three Arabs.
The men greatly outnumbered the women ,
there being 791 males nnd only fifty-four
females. July was the hot month , with 105
arrests , nnd January the cold and orderly
one , with only thirty-nine.
The police department gave shelter dur
ing the year to 1,290 lodgers. The greatest
number of applications for this form of
charity was made in November , when there
wcro 221 , and the lowest In July , when only
six applied. Of these 748 declared they wcro
American citizens , 177 Irlbh , twenty-three

Street Commissioner Morris' annual re
port shows a decided reduction In the cost
of doing the street work between the dates
of March 1,1896 , and March 1,1897. The net
result Is n saving to the city of over $2COO
and an Increase of the amount ot work done.
The work of the department has been very
heavy during the year. Seasons of drouth
on previous years gave way last year to
floods , which toro up the unpaved streets ,
damaged bridges , covered the paved streets
with mud and played the mischief generally
all over the city. Yet , with all of this added
expense and extra work , the cost of the
department to the city was In round num
bers $2,681 less than on previous years.
Ills report shows that the total cost ot re
pairs on the streets was $4,788.42 paid for In
cash and that $1,664 was worked out as poll
tax. On previous yea re the chain gangs
had performed most of the street cleaning.
During the year there was none of this work
done , and Commissioner Morris was obliged
to add $1,463,35 to the general expenses of
his department for this work. The general
work ho did on the streets amounted to
$343.30. The details of his report show that
there were forty-three new oak crossings
laid at a cost for lumber of $157.47 and labor ,
$89.90. Twenty-six new tulverts were built ,
In which the lumber cost $131 and the labor
$71.75. Repairs on old crossings called for
the expenditure of $41.15 for lumber and
$41.35 for labor. Sidewalk and paving re
pairs cost $655.27. Merchandise was bought
for the department during the year to the
amount of $126.96. and there Is now a stock
on hand of the value ot $417.03.

DDS MOINES , March 16. ( Special Tele
gram. ) The senate devoted the day to roundIng -
Ing up the revenue bill. Section 22 , which
was sustained by A tlo vote last week , was
stricken out. It provided a now method of
taxing loan and trust companies. The old
law will be left unchanged.
An amendment was offered to tax the
stocks ot state and savings banks In the same
manner as national banks. It was urged
that the federal law provides a method of
taxing national banks and that a different
method applied to state institutions Is un
fair. Tlio amindmcnt , however , failed ,
A substitute by the committee for section
4 was adopted. This provides that In case
the valuation under the new method of as.
scssmont thall bo Increased over the present
one , the tax levies shall bo so reduced that
thcro shall be no greater aggregate ot taxes
raised.
Hcaly offered an amendment for the tax
ation of concerns which have branches In
different assessment districts. Intended to
assure that banks which have branches shall
not escape taxation on the branches , as
seine of them ore represented to do now.
The amendment was laid over.
Gorrell moved the most Important amendh
mont since the bill was taken up. It was
that the owner of mortgaged property shall
deduct the amount of the mortgage before
paying taxes. Gorrell. Itowcn , Uruet , Lothy
rep and Kllburn spoke for It , and It was
voted on without any address in opposition
and defeated yeas , 14 ; nays , 24.
The Cheshire amendment to provide a
now plan of taxing telegraph companies will
como up tomorrow , and will cause a long
light. It is the Indiana law In substance
and radically changes the plan of assessing
these concerns. It Is half as long as all
the rest of the bill nnd every effort to Induce -
duce him. to withdraw It failed. H will
cause a long contest and then be defeated.
The house prssed a committee substitute
for the senate military bill. It differs from the
senate bill chiefly In providing a system of
examinations for promotion which will en
able a private soldier to rise to a position on
the governor's stall In a minimum of five
years. The. Insurance bill was further con
sidered and passed. The house after speeches
by Nolan ot Dubuque and Doublcday of
Polk refused to concur In senate amendment
to the county and township organization
bill by which more than one member of the
board of supervisors may bo elected from
ono township. The house passed the Insane
hospital bill , concurring In all the eonato
amendments except that allowing funds to
bo drawn quarterly la advance. , ; The provi
sion cutting the salarlss'of superintendents
to $2,500 per year was accepted.

Nearly all ot the candidates selected at the
primaries Monday and the democratic con
vention yesterday are well known In this
city , and scarcely need any Introduction to
the public.
Jack Walters , who will most likely run for
councilman from the Klrst ward , occupies
| the ; position ot assistant superintendent at
the stock yards. Ho has served two terms
liC the city council and was major ot the
city , filling Mayor Miller's unexplrcd term.
Walters Is known to nearly every voter In
the city , and has quite a following.
Henry Mies , the nominee In the Second
ward , hna served ono term In the council ,
and Is quite a prominent German. He holds
a responsible position with the South Omaha
Brewing company , nnd bus a pcisonal ac
quaintance with nearly every male resident
of the city.
John J. Ryan , the candidate of the demo
crats In the Third ward , -was appointed
city clerk by Mayor Sloan some years ago , to
fill a vacancy. When the next regular elec
tion came around he was nominated by the
democrats , endorsed by the republicans , and
elected. Following this Ryan served ono
term In the city council , Mr. Ryan Is a
real estate dealer In the city.
William Mullaly , the choice of the Fourth
ward , has served two terms In the council.
Ho holds an Important position with the
Cudahy Packing company and Is apparently
well liked by his constituents.
The candidates for members of the Boaid
of Education are also well known.
A. A. Nixon resides at Seventeenth and
Missouri avenue , and Is In the wholesale
feed business at the stock yards , having
an ofllco with Sam Ooency.
J. II. Locchner of the Second ward Is a
prominent German. He always takes con
siderable Interest In politics , and was Identi
fied with an Influential club of Germans
during the election last fall. Mr. Locchncr
U with the Omaha Packing company , and
hardly needs any Introduction to the people
of South Omaha.
Fritz Frcltag of the Third ward Is equally
well known , having been for n number of
years head bookkeeper for the South Omaha
Brewing association. Mr. Frcltag Is an In
fluential German , and was a candidate for
member of the Board of Education a year
ago , but was defeated by seven votes.
IlcMiioernllc City Convention.
The democratic city convention met yesterday -
terday afternoon and nominated A. A. Nixon ,
John Henry Locchncr and Fritz Frcltag as
candidates for members of the Board of Ed
ucation for a term of thrae years. There
was no excitement , no speeches , no fights
and no opposition to the nominees.
Eighteen of the twenty delegates were
preaant whan James Murphy of the city cen
tral committee called the convention to or
der. Murphy was elected chairman and John
O'Leary secretary. Voting was done by roll
call , each of the delegates casting ono vote
for each ot the three nominees.
After the nominations had closed friends
of Henry Michel of the Second ward at
tempted to have Michel's name added to the
list of nominees , but the delegates would
not stand that kind of work and proceeded
to call the roll on the names mentioned.
After the candidates had been selected the
convention gave the city central committee
power to fill vacancies , should any occur , and
then a motion was made to ratify the candi
dates for council chosen at the primaries
Monday. Mies of the Second ward , Ryan of
the Third nnd Mullaly of the Fourth were
confirmed. Nothing was done about con
firming Jack Walters In the First ward , ao
one of the delegates asserted that no candi
date was put up In that ward.
I'oxt Convention SorciicNN.
It Is understood that the democrats of the
First ward have a scheme on foot to run
John Fitz Roberts for councilman. Mr. Rob
erts now represents this district in the legis
lature and is considered the strongest man
that the democrats could possibly put up.
Franck Is not satisfied with his defeat at
the primaries in the Second ward and asserts
that eome of his friends have urged him to
run for the council by petition. This Mr.
Pranelc has about made up his mind to do.
Someof 'tho ' republicans In the Second ward
have been after Franek and have urged him
to run by petition. They hope by' , this means
to divide the democrats in the ward and elect
a republican.
Hyland of the Third -ward takes Ms de
feat sorely to heart and will most likely run
by petition. Two year * ago Hyland was
elected on the republican ticket , but this
year ho attempted to get the democratic
nomination and was turned down. The
Fourth ward will have , a petition candidate.
Sam Mort will run to beat Mullaly and will
seek the endorsement of the republicans. If
ho gets Into ho will make It exceedingly In
teresting for Mr. Mullaly.

gallons a day during the 150 days which the
