isers are C. Hafer, Fred Davis and C. A.
Beno of Council Bluffs and J. C Sullivan
of Creston, la. The company has not yet
Incorporated, but expects to before tha
end of the week.
The Pottawattamie Mutual company asks
for a franchise for twenty-Are years or a
combined toll, telephone, teAgraph and
terminal exchange. In addition the com
pany proposes to do business in electrical
signals, fire and police alarms and operate
a system of toll stations.

mie Mutual company ottered, if It was
granted a franchise. Representatives of the
Council Bluffs Independent company also
addressed the committee and the matter
was Informally discussed for about an hout
when the aldermen decided nothing could
be gained by mere discussion and Alderman
Tlnley suggested that a committee of three
be appointed to draft aa ordinance embody
ing the features of a franchise which would
meet the wishes of the city council. This
met with favor at the bands of the commit
tee of the whole and the discussion came
to an end with the appointment of Alder
men Lovett, Tlnley and Casper, City Solic
itor Snyder and Mayor Morgan as the spe
cial committee. -
The committee then went Into session be

tion or rejection. ,

Park.
man. as yet unidentified, committed
sulclds laat evening at the eaat side of
Bayllaa' park by shooting himself through
the head. As no money was found on his
person, despondency Is supposed to have
been the motive. There Is every Indication
that the deed was premeditated and care
fully planned, as apparently everything
which could be of assistance In Identifying
the victim had been removed both from his
pockets and his person. The only clue
which promised anything was the name
Ktdd Mercantile company. Rlverton, la.,
stamped on the Inner band of the hat.
The Rlverton merchants were communi
cated with by telephone and said that from
the description of the clothing worn by the
dead man thay had evidently sold the outfit,
but could give no Information throwing
light an his Identity. So far as could be
aacertalned, he had not registered at any
of the city hotels, but two hackmen stats
they bad seen him several times during
the last two or three daya.
The act was committed about 11:30 laat
evening. The man earn out at the south
entrance of the Grand hotel, end In going
toward the park paased Officers A. A. Kirk
and Dlstmsn. When midway down the east
, walk of the park he pulled a revolver from
hla pocket and fired, the bullet entering
over the eye. He was dead when the offi
cers reached him.
The deceased was evidently between 25
and SO years of age. about five feet nine
Inches, spsre build, clean ahaven and with
prominent features. He was dressed In a
black suit, blue-striped shirt, white under
shirt and blue drawers, and wore enameled
ahoes. It was svident from his appearance,
that he was not a laboring man.
