IUDUE DUJVCOMIIE AT TUB COUNCIL
Soya Fort Dodge Will Be Built I
FoaKlit at Every Step.
Judge Duncombe , president of the For
lodge & Omaha Railway company , nppcarci
ofore the adjourned meeting of the clt ;
ouncll as a committee of the whole las
Ight and presented his side of the oasi
why the two ordinances submitted by hli
ompany granting It a right of way througl
ae city and providing for the vacation bj
lie city of certain streets , avenues ani
lleys should be passed.
In opening his statement President Dun
ombe gave an outline ot the history of thi
lllnols Central in Iowa and explained tha
he parties who owned It and the Dubuqu
& Sioux City railroad were at the ftnancla
lid of the Fort Dodge & Omaha rood. Hi
said that the road , when constructed , wouli
10 second to none 4n the state and tha
Ighty-flve pound steel rails had been bough
or the entire line between Council Bluff
and Fort Dodge. He referred to the op
xwltlon his company was meeting from { h
torthwestern , but admitted that probabl
f he owned the Northwestern he would no
Ike to see the Illinois Central parallelln
ts racks. The entrance ot the Illinois Cen
ral Into Council Bluffa , be insisted , woul
.be of Immense benefit to the city and it
ttlzens and for that reason no stumblln
locks should be put In Its way , but , on th
ther hand , every encouragement given It.
As to the fots in the 'blocks abutting o
he avenues , his company asked the clt
f they could secure them at a fair prlc
and if not they would proceed at once t
acquire them by condemnation as provide
by law. Owing to the clouded title of som
} f these lots they had not been able t
urchaso them , but woutd have to resort t
condemnation proceedings. He called th
ttcntlon of the councllmen to the city ordl
nances which showed that the city had vo
ated a number of streets at the reques
of the Northwestern road and other rood
and ho expected that the city would be n
Iberal when dealing with his companj
With reference to the right ot way throug
lake View park he believed that the clt
council was the proper body to take actlo
n the matter ao the title to the parka wa
nvosted in the city and not the park com
mlssloners. The road , ho said , would sub
stantlally be completed by the beginning
next year and that bis company was de
termlned to budld It even if every foot f
t had to be fought. President Duncomb
addressed the council for upwards of a
hour and asked that It take action on th
ordinance as soon aa possible as his compan
wished to know "where it was at. "
In answer to a question ot Alderma
hrlstensen , Judge Duncombe stated that li
could not at this time say whetBcr the roa
would establish shops at Council Bluffa c
not. Thte would bo a matter , he said , to t
decided after the road was built. He callc
attention to the fact that his company ho
already expended over J100.000 In the pui
chase of property In Council iJluffs and II
immediate vicinity and that contracts ha
been entered into for the purchase ot son
115,000 worth more.
The committee adjourned without takln
any action and will meet today at 12 o'cloc
and go over the ground where the roe
seeks a right of way and vacation of street

NEW YORK , Jan. 10. The United States
transport Mississippi , which sailed from San
tiago on the evening of January 4 , arrived
today. On board the transport were General
Wood , military governor of Santiago , and
Lieutenant llanna , aide-de-camp ; Dr. Cas-
tllto , a brother of the Cuban general , and
Colonel Qlbson , who superintended the dis
tribution of provisions to the starving
Cubans. General Wood , who was Interviewed
at Quarantine , regarding the protest of the
people of Santiago over the disposal of the
funds of that province , said he did not care
to talk on that matter before he visited
Washington. Thcro was some dlMatlsfac-
tlon , but nothing to amount to anything.
When ho left Santiago everything was in
splendid ahapc , schools were being organized
and ready to receive scholars and nearly
1,000 miles of roads had been constructed.
The customs receipts were the largest ever
collected and exceeded the amount collected
and turned Into the Spanish treasury. Funds
were available for meeting the expenses of
the administration of the province , and the
only expense to thp United States would bo
the cost of maintaining UB army. The beat
of feeling prevailed and the general condi
tion of things was all that could be desired.
General Wood appeared to be In excellent
health. There were on board the transport
ten army officers belonging to various regi
ments , fifty-five discharged and convalescent
soldiers and forty-four civilians , among this
number being fourteen nurses. Four bodlca
were brought home on board the Mississippi.
Ono of these bodies was that ot Miss Helen
towers , a nurse , who died recently at San
uan. Captain Stcnson , the commander of
ho Mississippi , was left In the hospital at
ant la go , suffering from pneumonia. He wan
taken sick on December 24 , while at Ponce ,
and on reaching Santiago It was deemed
irudent to send him ashore to the military
lospltal rather than risk his life on getting
nto cold weather aboard the transport.
Chief Officer Hopkins was then placed In
command of the vessel.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad
vanced years are realized by compara
tively lew women.
Their hard lives , their liability to se
rious troubles 'on account of their pecu
liar organism and their profound igno
rance concerning themselves , all com
bine to shorten the period of usefulness
and fill their later years with suffering.
Mrs. Pinhham has done much to make
women strong. She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor
ous health in old age. From every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly com
ing the most convincing statements
from women , showing the efficacy of
Lydla E. Pinkhnm's Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming female ills. Hero
is a letter from Mrs. J. C. Onus , of 230
Homer St. , Johnstown , Pa. , which is
earnest and straight to the point :
" DKAB MBS. PINKHAM : I feel it my
duty to tell all suffering women that I
think your remedies are wonderful. I
had trouble with my head , dizzy spells
and hot flashes. Feet and hands were
cold , was very nervous , could not sleep
well , had kidney trouble , pain in
ovaries and congestion of the womb.
Since taking your remedies I am better
every way My head trouble is all
gone , have no pain in ovaries , and am
cured of womb trouble. I can cat and
sleep well and am gaining in flesh. I
consider your medicine the best to bo
had for female troubles. "
The present Mrs. Pinkham's experi
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
lellcd , for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham , and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department of
her great business , treating by letter
