FEARS OF FEVER . EPIDEMIC Water - Supply Derived ., from Wells le Held tp Be, Bad. At tho meeting of the directors of the Commercial club laat evening Dr. Donald Maorae, Jr., made the prediction that t Council Bluffa . would eventually do aa great a aufferer In loss of life from the recent high water as Topeka, Kan., where there were so many fatalities from drown ing. The doctor made this forecast from his observations In tho bottoms, where he says the surface water has run into the wella and Is euro to bring on typhoid fever. Dr. Treynor expressed himself aa of the same opinion and both urged that the matter la worthy of aerloua attention. Many of the people In the weatern and aouthern parta of the city uae well water, and these are the sections of the city that have been troubled by the floods. The doctors auggaated that aa a preventive the water be boiled before using. To fur ther this plan the directors of the club expressed the wish that the matter be agitated through the newspapers and that tho city physician prepare a circular for distribution among the people, giving warning and detailing dlrectlone for treat ing the water. The condition ot the atreete In general was discussed and particular attontion was called to the almost Impassable condition of West Broadway by a letter from W. T. Seaman, who Uvea In that vicinity. Some years ago a good many thousand dollars waa spent In laying a atrip of alag ma cadam sixteen feet wide on this striet fromf Fourteenth to the river, but the con dition of the thoroughfare Is now worse, if anything, aa the result ot what was then thought an Improvement. F. J. Day of the committee to whom waa referred the matter of a cold storage plant reported that the committee had held a meeting and that the prospect for the establishment of such a plant In the city was good. The committee Is at pres ent looking for a man with experience In this line. Mr. Day said a Rockwell City mun had written that If a plant waa put In here he would divert his business of twelve cars annually for storage from Omaha to Council Bluffa. There waa some discussion of the propo sition to get the headquarters of the weat ern division of the rural free delivery service of the Fostofflce department lo cated here, but no action was taken. The question ot the probable abolition of the bridge differential that now favors Council Bluffs aa against Omaha in freight rates received some attention. The monthly report of Commissioner Loomls showed the total receipts to dstc to be 13.754 and the membership 338. About twenty of the fifty members ot the board of director were present last evening.

J Iroi TXECOMPUJUCI CUBE SICK hABACHL IOWA RUSHING ITS BUILDING Hopri t3 Hare it Completed Before Labor Becomes Scarce at Fair, INEBRIATES LEAVE THE ASYLUM Na Extra Session of Legislature to Bo Called, as Desired Result Coald Not Be Thus Obtained. (From a Staff Correspondent) DES MOINES, June l-(Speclal.)-Work on the Iowa building on the grounds of the Louisiana Purchase exposition Is being rushed as rapidly aa posslblo because ot fear of labor troublea and complications that will make the completion of the build ing more dlfflclt or expensive. This was re ported to the state commission In session this morning by W. T. Shepherd of Har lan, superintendent of construction. "Help is plentiful now," he reported, "but I look for complications later. My hope Is that we may be able to progresa so rapidly that we may get through each stage of the con struction Just ahead of the Jam that will make the probable 'holdup' in each Impos sible." As yet there has been no holdup ot the commission or contractora because the work Is being done before the fact becomes generally known at St. Louis. In fact, Iowa had the building well under way before some of the officials, as for Instance the In surance department, knew anything was being done. Superintendent Shepherd re ported that the building la up to the second story. He haa employed J. O. Wlckeraham of Harlan as actual superintendent of con struction at 1100 a month. One car of lumber waa rejected. He recommended the purchase of the motor for the organ- and the electrical fixtures at once. The members of the commission present today were Messrs. Larrabee, Wltmer, Har rtman, Trewln, Shepherd. Curtis and Bailey. The chief work was auditing bills In re gard to the construction work at St. Louis. It waa found that the contractor waa not presenting receipted bills In all cases as re quired. A report was presented from Superintendent F. J. Sessions on the work done In the educational department. He has opened headquarters at Cedar Rapids, la preparing the first general circular, la In correspondence with college faculties and the library commission and will take up the matter with heads of state institutions. There will be no living exhibit from the state institution schools. Fifty Inebriates Wallc Away. More than fifty of those sentenced to the state Inebriate hospitals walked out of the hospitals at Cherokee and Mount Tleasanl during the month of May. The report from Mount Pleasant shows that June 1 there were fifty-six Inebriates In the hospital, that there were seventy-three a month before, that thirty-seven eacaped and forty-one j were discharged, and there Is out on parole I now a total of sIxAy-slx. At the Cherokee ! Inebriate hospital there are thtrty-nlne In mates, as against fifty-three May 1, that fourteen escaped during the month and forty-two are now out on parole. The num ber of Insane at Mount Pleasant, June I. was S7S, a decrease of eight; and at Chero kee there were 614, an Increase of two. The number of Inmatea at the Boys' Industrial school at Eldora,.June 1, was 514, and at the Olrla' Industrial school at Mitchell vllle, 211. The penitentiary at Anamosa re ports a total of 424! an Increase of six for the month. Of the nineteen received, six were for second terma. No Extra Session. There will be no extra session of the state legislature on acoount of the great losses from floods In the state of Iowa. The city council of Des Moines paased a resolu tion asking for a special session that some law might be pasaed under which, the city might make a special levy for dikes, and thus give employment to a large number ot men. The matter was looked up today and It waa found that this process would be very unsatisfactory, that any measure the legislature might pass could not be got Into force until after the next aeaslon ot the 1 glslature, and no tax levied could be collected and made use of this year. It would, therefore, be Just aa well to wait for the regular session of the legislature. The city council committee has not yet called on the governor to make formal re quest for a special session and the gov ernor will not take It up until the comn.lt tee presents Its plan. Sandlland Haa Appealed. The appeal papers In the case of the State against Andy Sandlland were filed with the clerk of the eupreme court today. Sandlland waa convicted of breaking and entering a car In the night time and taking therefrom some beer. This happened at Avoca. where he got a sentence of a year in the penitentiary. New Iowa Corporationa. The reincorporation of the Sanborn State bank was accomplished today. The bank haa a capital of 125,000; C. D. Ellis, presi dent; O. M. Blocum, cashier. The Oska loosa Bindery company has organized, capital 110.000, by T. M. Shockley and Phil Hoffman. The East Carroll Land company of Cedar Rapids has Incorporated with 150,000 capital, by J. H. Trewln. J. M. Grimm, O. T. Hedges and J. M. Rlstlne. The Waukon Consolidated Milk company waa organized, with 160.000 capital, by W. C. Earle, president, and W. H. Nethaua, treas urer. State Farms Are Backward. Judge Robinson of the State Board of Control returned today from Cherokee, where he had visited the State Insane hos pital and the state farm. He reports that the crops on the big state farm in Cherokee county are good and that despite the act weather the farm will yield well. It is lo cated on high and rolling ground. But this ia the only one of the farms at various state institutions concerning which such a favorable report could be made, aa In every other Instance the farm work has been greatly delayed by the bad weather. These stats farms are scattered well over the state and are representative of the conditions aa they are found. Briaaam to Laaissl. Johnson Brlgham. atat librarian, went to Lamont, la., today, where he la to apeak at the commencement exercises ot the college of the Latter Day Salnta He will discuss the educational value of Christianity.
