REGISTRATION VERY LICET
Bnrprise Caused by the Comparatively Few
Added to the Old Lists.
WORKMEN TOO BUSY TO TAKE THE TIME
Naur Removals I" "ome rreclncts
Where Hew Railroad Cornea la,
smt Few of Parties Hare
Appeared to Register.
Contrary to expectation, the registration
In the eeveral precinct of the city yester
day waa exceedingly light. Reports from
the registration boards last evening showed
that but few names had been added to the
lists of last year and that only a small
number of voters who bad changed their
residence since last election had re-regls-tered.
The general apathy said to exist la the
approaching election is presumed to be ac
countable for the light registration yester
day. Another reason given Is that every
man baa employment this year and but lit
tle time to devote to politics. That there
are many new voters In the city is evident
by the recently Issued city directory, and
both parties will make every effort to se
cure a full registration before the lest day
for same, which Is Saturday, November 1.
The advent of the Great Western Into
Council Bluffs and the purchase of Its right-of-way
through the city has caused many
families in certain precincts to change
their residence dicing the last twelve
month a The members of these families en
titled to vote, Laving changed their place
f residence since last November, are re
quired to register anew this year, but the
reports of the registration boards lsst even
ing show that but few of them did. They
have yet two days in which to register and
every effort will be made by the party work
era to have them do so.
Wo Money to Clean Streets,
- "I certainly am of the same opinion as
the mayor and realise that the streets need
cleaning, especially those in the business
part of the city, but If be knows where the
money le coming from to pay for the work.
I do not, and will be glad to be enlightened."
This waa the statement of Alderman Mc
Donald, chairman of the streets and alleys
committee, yesterday morning on bis re
turn to the city, when Informed that Mayor
Morgan waa determined that the streets
Should be cleaned.
Alderman McDonald explained that there
waa less than 1800 In the streets and alleys
fund and that as long as the city retained
the services of a street supervisor and a
sidewalk Inspector this amount would be
needed to pay their ealarles for the re
mainder of the fiscal year. The chairman
of the atreets and alleys committee wss
emphatlo In his statement that so far as
he was concerned he would not consent to
the expenditure of 1 cent above the sum
appropriated for hie department. It Mayor
Morgan aay a way whereby further money
for the cleaning of the streets could be se
cured, Mr. McDonald said be was only too
. willing; to expend It la the manner desired.
The average registration for the twelve
precincts of the city yesterday waa about
ten same. In one precinct only two names I
were added to the list while in another
twenty-six were registered.

Boys Had Robbers' Roost.
1 Charles Bishop, another young lad, waa
arrested yesterdsy morning charged with
belag implicated with Earl Greer In the
robbing of Illinois Central freight cars.
The young lads will have a bearing before
Justice Bryant this morning.
The information leading to the arrest of
Oreer and Bishop was obtained ty the offi
cers front a email girl, an associate of the
boys. The reading ot dime novels. It is
said, started the youths to commit the rob
beries. With the construction of a cave in
the bluff on North Eighth street the boys
considered themselves real bandits and the
"robbers' den" wss made the resort of the
young folks of the neighborhood. Provis
ions were needed to entertain the "bandits"
and the raids on the freight cars in the
yards of the Illinois Central and Northwest
ern adjoining followed, tt Is alleged, by the
officers who have been investigating.
A search of the "robbers' roost" yester
day brought to light ample evidence of the
recent robberies from the freight cars. The
officers found boxes which had contained
tobacco, empty cana which formerly held
fruit, and the youths . had .utilised the
cracker boxes, which they had depleted ot
their contents, for seats and tables.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. 23. (Special.) The
state auditor Is engaged In sending out to
Insurance companies the new uniform policy
of Are Insurance prepared by Attorney Gen
eral Mullan for the use of the companies
doing business in Iowa and made to con
form to the Iowa law. The policy known
aa the uniform policy, which la now In use
by Iowa companies, has been decided to
be contrary to the Iowa law in some Im
portant particulars. Several of the com
panies have already notified State Auditor
Merrlam that they will comply with hie
suggestion and adopt the new policy, and
It is anticipated that before the close of
the year all the leading companies will
adopt It. Nothing can be done to coerce
the companies Into acceptance until the
first of next year, when a new state au
ditor will have charge. If he follows the
policy which has been outlined by the at
torney general he" will refuse to Issue cer
tificates to the companies until they have
adopted the new uniform policy. If this
Is done the insurance business will be
simplified and business men believe that
the power of the insurance combine will be
largely destroyed.
Personal Rights In Iowa.
The supreme court. In a lengthy de
cision by Justice McClaln, today upheld the
personal rights of men, even though they
are under arrest and accused of crimes.
It was In the case of the State against
Fred Hecht, from Cedar Rapids. He was
on trial for a crime and an essential part
of the evidence against him was that of a
doctor who made a physical examination
of his person after bis arrest to procure
evidence against him, the examination
having been made against the protests of
the accused man. The court holds that.
although there Is no provision of the Iowa
constitution touching this point, the court
did wrong In allowing this evidence to be
taken. It waa In the nature of evidence
furnished by the accused person to In
criminate himself, obtained under duress.
Governor's Voice Succumbs.
The strenuous life of the campaign
proved too much for Governor A. B. Cum

health, except for throat trouble, which
prevented him from apeaklng.

JUDGE JOINS VARSITY FIGHT
While Aetlnsr as Peaeemaker He Has
to Assume Offensive to Achieve
Success.
t
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. Justice Harlan
of the Vnlted States supreme court, who
is a member of the faculty of the Columbian
university law school, last night prevented
a class fight between freshmen and sopho
mores. He Is a giant and, although 69 yeara of
age, still vigorous and active.
t The anticipated contest was the result
of the announcement of the freshmen that
tbey would hold their first meeting last
night In Jurisprudence hall. This announce
ment acted as a suggestive challenge to
the aopohomores to break up the meeting.
The sophs made a charge against the door
of the hall, and Justice Harlan ordered the
combat to cease.
The aophs paused tor a moment, but
were evidently not disposed to obey, for
they immediately began a second assault.
It was then that the eminent Jurist took
a personal hand In the fray. He reached
over the heads of the assaulting party and,
seizing the leader by the collar, dragged
htm from the pile. The jurist then di
rected the second-year men to disperse.
NEW ERA FOR FIVE TRIBES
Annual Report of Dawes Commission
Makes a Good Showing; for
the Indians.
WASHINGTON, 'Oct. 23. The annual re
port ot the Dawea commission appointed
to treat with the five civilized trlbea says
that It all the pending agreements should
be ratified by the tribes, practically all
necessary authority will have been secured
for the complete administration of the five
estates entrueted to the commission, an end
diligently sought for nearly ten yeara.
The report says it is Impracticable at
this time to render final decisions In cases
involving .the right to enrollment of citi
zens by intermarriage of the Choctaw and
Chickasaw tribes.
Tbe conclusion Is announced that the
bitter anti-allotment sentiment of the In
diana has now largely yielded to reason
and time, and the five trlbea are fairly
upon the threshold of a new era.

S. R. Crockett, author of "The Fire

titled "The Banner of Blue." In "The
Banner of Blue" Mr. Crockett offers a
new version of that most wonderful of

rolored love stories, tbe one intense to
Its tragic end, the other delightful in Its
quaint Scotch humor. We sympathize
with the proud lord of Gower In the down
fall of his Idolized son and do not blame
John Glendonwyn the least bit for falling
