City
Council tn CmiNlilcr Itcxoliit Imm
III CiimniUtec uf (lie Whole.
Tho meeting of tho city counclt as a
commlttco of tho whole this afternoon Is
to consider tho resolutions calling for tho
curbing and paving a number of streets and
nvenues which will como up for final ac
tion nnd determination nt the meeting of
tho council Mondny night.
Several petitions from property owners In
tho Fourth ward havo been filed, in which
they ntk that tho streets in which they arc
Interested bo paved with asphaltum. Some
of tho property owners in this ward have
declared IhcniBclves In favor of home-made
brick, whllo others havo expressed a pref
erence for the Oalesburg brick. No com
putation has been made of the frontago of
tho abutting property owned by the persons
signing tho petitions for asphalt, and It Is
not known whether they represent a ma
jority. Protests bnve been filed against paving
Ninth street with nny kind of material this
year, nnd It is understood this street will
ho cut out of the paving resolution. A
vigorous protest has also been tiled against
tho paving of Park avenue between Pomona
street and tho entrance to Falrmount park.
Thcro nro no residences on tho west sldo of
this portion of Park avenue and tho lots
slopo towards Glen avenue. It Is claimed
that the abutting property will not bo suf
ficiently benefited to bear tho assessment
for the cost of tho Improvement.
At the meeting of tho city council Mon
day tho asphalt contingent was out In full
force, but did not securo an opportunity to
oxpress Its views, as action on tho resolu
tion was postponed. It Is expected a large
number of tho Fourth ward property owners
will attend this afternoon to make n per
sonal petition for asphalt. It Is the opinion
of somo that, owing to the contention over
the material to bo used, there will bo no
paving laid this year In the Fourth ward.
In his annual report, filed with tho coun
cil Monday night. City Knglneor Rtnyre
called attention to tho necessity of having
nil tho sewer, gas and water mains and
laterals laid on those streets proposed to be
paved. Ho suggested that this bo done at
once on somo of tho streets. This matter
will, it Is expected, bo taken up nt the
meeting this afternoon.
Knglnecr Etnyro nlfco recommended that
Instead of plank crossings, especially on
the main thoroughfares, brick with broken
Btonc baso nnd approaches bo used In the
future when old ones are to be replaced or
new ones put In. He says that whllo the
first cost is greater, it Is more than offset
by greater durability, comfort to travel and
Is more cheaply maintained. The enrth nt
the approaches to tho plank crossings is
constantly being worn away nnd unless
promptly attended to becomes a serious
obstaclo to travel.

Secure Over Ten T lioimniul llollnr
Hint Ottlclnl Overlooked.
Tho work of F. M. Cunningham, tax fer
ret, in bringing to light property which has
been omitted from assessment and conse
quent taxation Is bearing fruit and tho
county treasury has been enriched by many
thousnnds of dollars which otherwise would
never have been paid In. Whllo there is
some question as to tho right of tho county
board to contract to pay Cunningham a sum
equal to 50 per cent of all tho money paid
Into the treasury through his efforts, County
Treasurer Arnd says there Is no question
but that It Is a good thing for the county.
Treasurer Arnd estimates that already
over $10,000 has been paid In on proporty
which had been omitted from assessment
and which had been discovered by Cunning
ham nnd thero nro ninny thousnnds of dol
lars yot In sight. If Cunnlnghnm succeids
In having hiH contract with tho county
board sustained by tho courts his earnings
up to date will exceed $5,000.
County Attorney Klllpack yesterday, on
behalf of Treasurer Arnd, filed a petition In
tho district court usklng that tho estato of
Fred Loutzlnger bo reopened and tho ad
ministrators ordored to pay $5,438.86 al
leged to bo duo as taxes on pcrsonnl prop
erty which had been omitted from assess
ment far the last flvo years. Leonard Leut
zlnger, Thomas Maloney nnd C. Hammel
nro tho administrators of tho estate. They
filed their final report January 11 with the
court and sumo was approved nnd tho
period In which tho estate could bo re
opened will expire today. Tho petition
states that the administrators failed to list
for taxation any part of tho personal prop
erty owned by thu estate. Loutzlnger died
October 4. 1895, leaving n valuable estate,
Cunningham reported to tho county treas
urer that the estate owned personal prop
erty to the amount of $14,510 during each
of the flvo years past. Tho administrators
when notified of tho course adopted by tho
county treasurer nt once signified their will
ingness to pay the taxes as soon as tho
proper offsotB were allowed.

Tho troublo between Even Fcgley nnd
John Islcy over tho boundary fence be
tween their respective abodes culminated
yesterdny In Fcgley having Islcy arrested
on an assault nnd battery charge filed be
fore Justice Forrler, while Isley retaliated
by having Fegloy arrested on a similar
charge filed before Justice Bryant.
Assistant County Attorney Kimball had
the cuso against islcy dismissed in Justice
Fcrrler's court and tho costs taxed to
Fegley. The latter, however, did not meet
with the same fortune that Isley did.
When arrested he was under tho influence
of liquor and Justice Bryant had his court
constable file an Information charging Fcg
ley with intoxication. Ho then decided to
continue the assault caso until today nnd
In the meantlmo committed Fcgley to tho
county Jail, placing his bail at $550 on the
two charges.
Fcgley was discharged Monday In police

I)E8 MOINES, April 10. (Special.) The
town supreme .court Is In session for the
purpose of delivering n number of opinions
which have beon prepared In recess. The
submission term will bo held next month.
There Hrc no Important cases to he dis
posed of at this time, but a great deal of
routine work. In one decision placed on fllo
this morning the court gave an Indication of
what It would do on the motion for n new
trial in the Urayblll case from Council
Bluffs, nnd showed that It will adhere to ta
ruling in that caso regarding the require
ment thnt It Is the duty of nn engineer to
give an ulnrm when approaching a crossing
of a hlghwny. The case was that of McGUI
Bros, against the Minneapolis & St. Louis
railroad, from Webster county. Involving
damages for loss of animals killed, The
case Is reversed on the ground that thp per
son In charge of tho animals was negligent,
but the court refers to the Grayblll case for
precedent In the matter of using thu whistle
or bell to wnrn live stock off the track.
The case Involved a claim of only $40.
Tho most Interesting caso decided today
wns one from Tama county, Involving a con
test over oftico of superintendent of schools.
In tho contest case the original ballots were
Introduced In evidence. It was shown
that the county auditor, In whose custody
the ballots were placed for safe krcplng tho
required olx months, had simply thrown
them Into a vault with other records, which
were accessible to many persons, nnd that
a great many persons might have seen the
envelopes containing the ballots and have
tampered with them. The court reads a r.c
vero lesson to the county auditor for his
negligence and holds that tho ballots
should not have been admitted because It
was possible they were not tbo original bal
lots. Inasmuch as tho custom followed by
this nudltor Is thnt gonerally followed by all
county auditors, tho court sets n precedent
of Interest to every county of the state, and
which may have great bearing on all future
election contests In the state.
The following are the decisions filed by
the court this morning:

ot Convict Knoiiaii,
The State Board of Control has found It
necessary to make a change In the peni
tentiary boundary districts of the state,
adding six counties to thp Fort Madison
district and taking tho same from the
Anaraosa district, In order to securo a
sufficient number of convicts at the peni
tentiary at Fort Madison to fill the con
tracts tho stalo has with manufacturers
for lease of convict Inbor. Thcro arc no
leases for use of the labor at Anamosn,
the convicts being kept nt work on the
stato stono quarries; hut at Fort Madison,
whero the contract convict system pre
vails, tho decrease In the number of pris
oners Is becoming nn embarrasment to
tho state. There has been a noticeable
decrease In tho number of convicts In the
Iowa penitentiaries In tho last year or two.

here, but this could not be arranged, nnd
so the test case which Is to be carried to
tho supreme court was tried beforo Judge

Tho Tobacco company attacks tho Iown
lnw not only because It is nn nlleged In
terference with Interstate commerce, con
trary to the United States constitution and
Is not n uniform regulation of commerce
but because It Is alleged the title to the
bill, as passed In the legislature, wan dn
fectlvo and the law Is therefore not In ac
cordance with tho Iowa constitution. This
latter Is n now point In tho case, on which
the Tobacco company lawyers have set

holds against tho cigarette dealers many
of them will quit rather than puy thu high
taxes.

Moving Is not pleasant to think about ex
cept when the prospect of a handsome
office is In prospect. You have to get up a
certain amount of steam to move, even
when you are driven to desperation by poor
Janitor work, wretched elevator service and
offices that have been long In need of paint
as well as soap and water.
The Bee Building-
always looks fresh and attractive becauao
It Is never allowed to get out of repair.
This together with efficient janitor service
