.Much Muddled.
Alderman Htiber, chairman of tho cora
ralttco on streets and alleys, who Is de
termined if possible to get tho olllclal head
of Street Supervisor Harden, notified tho
latter yesterday morning to quit all work
on tho streets and not to even allow those
paying their poll tax by labor to do any
work. Alderman Hubcr told Harden that
tlicBo Instructions came from tho mayor,
Harden had a number of men working out
their poll tax nnd ho refused to obey the
order until tho inon's time wag up. In
quiry at tho city hall showed that Mayor
Jennings had Issued no such order and that
Alderman Huber must have been laboring
under somo misapprehension when lie so
slated o Supervisor Harden.
"I never Issued any such order," said
tho mayor, "and as far as I know I have
no authority to Issue such. Tho city ord
inances provldo that tho street commissioner
shall put at work all those wlBhlng to pay
their poll tax by labor. Harden Is still
street supervisor nnd will be so until dis
charged, If ho Is."
Street Supervisor Harden Is keeping tho
sldowalk repair gang at work, but is not
doing any work on tho streets with tho
regular Btreet gang, recognizing tbo author
ity of tho chairman of the streets and
alleys commltteo In this respect. Harden
says ho Is not in tho least fearful about
the outcome of tho investigation to be
held next week, as ho says he can disprove
all or any charges that Alderman Huber
can mako against him. It Is understood
that Alderman Lougoo Is also after Harden's
scalp. Tho other members) of the council
aro said to bo favorablo to the street su

DOll II INS CASH CUTS IXTEHESTINCJ.
Much Spcciilntlon n tn the Animas of
the Seizure.
Justlco Vlen will determine tho dispo
sition to bo made of the stock of liquor
seized Monday night under n soarch war
rant at Charles Dobbins' saloon in tho
opera houso block next Monday at 9
o'clock, when tho hearing on tho Informa
tion filed by J. W, Scott will bo had. In
tho meantime tho $800 worth of liquor Is
stored nt 140 Broadway In care of an of
fleer of Justice Vlcn's court.
Mrs. Will Whlto denied that sho had had
anything to do with the matter and is
very much annoyed that her namo was
monttoned In connection with tho affair
at all. William Whlto, her husband, also
denied' having lost any monoy playing
poker m tlio saloon.
Justlco Vlen, when asked nt whoso In-
tlgatlon the search warrant had been is
sued, said ho Issued it on the request of
Scott. He had not asked Scott his rea
sons for proceeding against tho saloon,
but Scott had volunteered the Information
that he was doing It "for tho sako of
humanity." Justlco Vlen further stated
that ho know that the pollco bad warned
Dobbins within the last two weeks about
tho manner he was conducting his saloon
and that ho knew what to expect.
Attornoy McCabo says lie had not been
retained to prosecuto the case, but In
Justtco Vlen's court It was said that Scott
Is acting under directions from Mr. Mc
Cabo. It was reported yesterday that a
railroad man had lost his wholo mouth's
wages playing poker in tho. saloon and
thnt he discovered when too lato that a
'cold deck" had been slipped In on him.
Ho is said to havo laid tho wholo matter
boforo Attorney McCabo, as president of
tho reform committee.
Tho fact that Attornoy McCabe s name
Is mentioned in connection with tho case
leads other saloon keepers to believe
that tho reform committee haB started
again nnd tho result is that a number of
tho poker rooms which havo neon running
wldo open were not doing basincss yes
terday. Mayor Jennings and Chief or Pollco ai-
bro Btuck steadfastly to tholr statement
of Monday night that thero nro no poker
rooms running in tho city. A won Known
membor of tho reform committee made the
suggestion yesterday that tho members of
tho pollco forco bo supplied with specta
cles, as they wero evidently BUffortng from

Prof. II. n, Hayden has notified the Hoard

will accept tho position of superintendent
of tho schools of that city, to which he
was recently elected. Ho has also no
tified tho Hoard of Education of this city
that ho will resign as superintendent of 'the
city schools here. He has plrcady begun
preparations to rcmovo from this city to
Hock Island.
Prof, and Mr. Hayden returned ycitevdny
morning from Massachusetts, where they
had been spending their vacation. On
learning that ho would not bo likely to
have tho unanimous support of the board
next year, Prof. Hayden at onco decided
to accept tho Rock Island position, al
though loath to leavo Council Dluffs, where
ho has mado bo many friends. When re
elected last Juno for tho ensuing term It
was by tho unanimous vote of the board
and that somo of the members had since
become opposed to him was a great surprise
to Prof. Hayden. This opposition, it Is
said, Is due to tho fact that Prof. Hayden
became u candidate for tho Itock Island po
sition after bis ro-clectlon here.
Prof. Hayden camo hero three years ngo
from Mnrshalltown as principal of tho High

DE3 MOINES. July 31. (Special Tele
gram.) Tho state republican convention to

affairs that havo characterized bo many
conventions of political parties. Instead ot
that it will open with every candidate pos
sewing considerable strength and intending
to stnv with the right until tho last, tnis
nftcruoon every candidate expressed him
self as delighted with tho showing and de
claring that with tho nrrlval of each dele
gation his hopes Increased. There is at tno
preeent time no evldenco of pobslblo with
drawals and with four candidates for sec
retary of state, six for tho ofllcc of supremo
Judge nnd a liberal supply for tho other of
fices tho chances for a light arc excellent.
This afternoon the Eleventh Congressional
district turned down Hobart for secretary
of state to throw its strength to Hallam for
attorney general. This probably menus
Hobart's defeat and tho election of Redman
or Martin for secretary of stnte. Gllberlsou
leads in tho treasurshlp rnco and secretnry
ot state. Mullan seems tonight to bo tno
strongest man for attorney general, but
Sims Is moro probablo, as tho selection or
Ollberleon and Redman (for other offices)
would leave Sims and Hallam tho only west-
cm candidates.
For supremo Judge It looks like Blanch-

Dlroctor Sago of tho Iowa crop service
Issued his bulletin this morning ot tho con
dition of tho crops of tho state. Corn Is
maintaining a high average. Tho director
states:
"Tho dally average temperature of the
past wee"k was ono to two degrees below
normal. Thero wero distributed showers
on tho 23d and 24th with considerable excess
In numerous localities, resulting In some
damage to grain in shock and uncut grain
on bottom lands. But In tho larger part of
tho stato thero has been no excess ot moist
ure and during tho last half of the week
weather conditions wero favorable for nor
mal growth of Immature crops and for clos
ing operations In tho harvest fields. Thresh
ing Is In progress In all portions with varl
nblo returns as to yield and quality of grain,
but generally satisfactory.
"Corn is maintaining its high average
condition In ,nll. districts, giving promlso of
a great rop, thdugh It still has somo perils
to oncounter. Pastures are greatly Improved.
Lato potatoes havo an amplo supply of
molsturq and In somo localities have been
somewhat injured by excess. Tho apple
crop Is more promising In tho northern
than In tho southern districts. In tho state
nt largo It Is considerably below the
average."

"Under no circumstances will I appoint
Senator Gear's successor within thirty days
after Senator Gear's death. If I should his

own feelings of respect for tho deceased sen
ator.' I was requested to innko tho appoint
ment beforo I attended tho funeral nt Bur
lington. What do you think of that? It
Is a fact, nevertheless. Senator Gear died

of respect for his memory, nnd this 1 have
dotormlncd to do. In fact, I havo had It
In ray mind from tho first. Yes, you may
quoto mo on It and rest easy yourself that
I shall mako no appointment beforo August
16. I do not say how soon I shall make tho
appointment after that."
