DREDGING OF INDIAN CREEK
City Council Gom Orer th Ground aid

CITY ENGINEER TO SUPERVISE WORK
Estimated Improvement Will Cost
Between 3,000 n $4,000, feat
It Is Imperatively Necessary-
te Da Dost.
The city aldermen. In company with
City Engineer Etnyre, went over Indian
creek yesterday morning' from Nineteenth
avenue to tha river to investigate tha pro
posed deepening and wldonlng of the stream
by means of tha Lake Manawa steam
dredger. The aldermen fully satisfied them
selves that tha work suggested by Mr. Et
nyre was imperative to make a sufficient
outlet for the city's drainage system, which
empties in to the creek at Nineteenth ave
nue. As a result of the investigation the coun
cil authorised the city engineer to make
such excavation as he In his judgment
deemed necessary and Aldermen Olson,
Casper and Huber were named as a com
mittee to enter Into a contract with tha
motor company for the use of its dredge.
The motor company's offer was to rent
tha dredge for JGOO, the city to make the
necessary repairs now needed on the ma
chine. . The aldermen, however, believe
that better terms can be made with the
company.
While City Engineer Etnyre has made no
estimate of the cost of the proposed work,
It la anticipated that it will demand the
expenditure of between 15,000 and 16,000.
Under the authority given the city engin
eer yesterday by the city council no re
striction as to expense Is placed upon him.
The big dredge Is now at Lake Manawa
on a flat-boat and It Is figured that it will
take three days to get it from tha lake to tha
creek. The dredge, which works On skids,
propels Itself and will cost about $25 a
day to operate. Work will be commenced
as soon as possible In order that a con
siderable part of the excavation may be
completed before cold weather sets In.

Aconaed af Bnrglary,
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DK8 M01N5S, Oct. 27. (Special.) Tha
Commercial exchange of this city is en
gaged In co-operating with three special
associations or leagues formed here for the
purpose of planning to secure special leg
islation from the next general assembly
relating to tha question of building dike
and changing tha course of the Dea Moines
and Coon rivers to that the disastrous
floods of the last two years will be avoided.
It is the plan to cut a new channel for
the Coon river as It enters the Des Moines,
iraklng the Junction a quarter of a mile
farther down the stream. This will cut
through a residence and business district
and Involve an expenditure of perhaps
$600,000. It Is proponed that a special bill
be parsed empowering the city to do this
work and charge It up to tho property ben
efited, save suoh portion as tha city coun
cil may choose to pay from funds for that
purpose. In this way It is believed the
change can be made so that danger from
floods will be avoided In the future. Tha
matter Is regarded as one of the largest
Improvement projects ever attempted here.

Republicans Conelade n Debate.
The weekly meeting of the Polk County
Republican club this evening concluded a
series of meetings which might be re
garded as a continuous Joint debate. For
several weeks speakers have been Invited
to the platform to take any or all views
nf lh nendlnar Issues, snd as a result the
speakers, hlle all professing to be re
publicans, have differed radically. One
week ago tha club had an able address
by Lafe Young of this city, in which he
took the position that there would be tha
greatest of danger In any movement look
ing to a change in the present tariff sched
ules and that revision by the republicans,
whether before the next presidential elec
tion or afterward, would be found to be as
disastrous as revision by the democrats
has been. Ha Insisted upon the sacredness
of the schedules and said that If any at
tempt at revision waa made his property

Modlned a Slew Rale.
The Iowa supreme court today rendered
a second decision In the case of the State
against J. E. Brady, from this county,
again reversing tha lower court, and, aa
on the first decision rendered last year,
declaring that tha Instructions In regard
to presumption of guilt were wrong, .but
modifying the rule a little to meet the
wishes of the bar of the state. The case
was of state wide Importance In that a
rule was announced which tha lawyers
declared would almost atop convictions in
a csrtaln large class of criminal cases.
Tha question related to lbs Importance of
finding stolen property in possession of an
accused person. There was a difference of
opinion as to whether possession Is proof
of burglary or of breaking and entering
aa It Is of larceny. The court states tha
rule to be that "the fact of possession Is
evidence of rullt upon which a conviction
may be properly returned unless the other
facta or circumstances developed be such
that notwithstanding tha recent possession
the Jury still entertains a reasonable doubt
of the defendant's participation In the
crime." Tha decision Is rendered on re
hearing which was granted at the last
terra, tha attorney general asking for a
new decision,
Saatalaa Taa Ferret Contract.
In a decision on a case from Linn county
the court suntained a tax ferret contract
In which the county agreed to pay one
Cunningham 60 per cent of the money col
lected. Cunningham had collected $10,C2.
and had received $3,800, then aued for $1,611
balance, when the county board was en
joined from, paying more. It was shown
that ha would collect about $50,000 on hla
contract for tax ferreting In Linn county.
J Us axpenaea had already been between
$1,60 and $3,000. Judge Tretchler in the1
district court cut the compensation to U
per cent on the ground that 60 per cent
waa unreasonable. The supreme court to
day decided he had no right to enter such
a deoreo and thai the 60 per cent contract
was not unreasonable.
Rehearlngs Refased.
The supreme court today for the first
time this term announced rulings on a
large number of applications for rehearing

Dr. Wymaa Talk.
The feature of tonight's session of the
association wss the annual address of the
president, Dr. Walter Wyman, surgeon
general of the United States Public and
Hospital service. Dr. Wyman said in
part:
I believe that the unsanitary condition
of our cities presents a condition parallel
to that of their political corruption. Mu
nicipal betterment would proceed fanter
If Its promoters realised that nn achieve
ment may fall when too much at one time
is attempted, but niny succeed by c.Torts
In detail. By seising upon one hlg)-:y Im
portant element of municipal reform and
for tha time being concentrating nil ener-
gies upon It, good citlsens would achieve
a success not only Invaluable In Itself, but
one which would serve as a point of vantage
lor omer en oris.
Moral reforms, Dr. Wyman said, would
mora easily follow better sanitation. Large
cities, here and abroad, have ahown tha
effect on health and commercial prosper
ity of purely aanltary measures. Among )
others he mentioned New Tork, with Its '
tenement houce victories; San Francisco,
In its sanitary struggle In Chinatown;
Memphis, with ita sewerage formation In :
tba warfare against yellow fever, and Ha- i
vana.
Dr. Wyman spoke of the growth In num- i
ber and power of tha state boards of
health, but added that many of our states
are backward in sanitary legislation.
State laws," he continued, "can ma
terially assist the effort In the great cities
toward tenement house reform and the
elimination of slums, aa well as the es
tablishment in the rural regions of proper
sanitation. In s-rantlng charters, partic
ularly to new cities, the state legislature
has the power to demand sanitary require
ments. The first question for a new mu
nicipal corporation should be assurance of
Its proper sanitation."
Dr. Wyman expressed the opinion that
popular interest in sanitary reform might
be enlisted through the agency of labor
unions, which already have manifested
their own Interest In sanitation and are
nearer to the great voting public than
any other organised bodies In cities. "To
awaken the interest of the poor in meas
ures for their awn betterment," he said.
"la preferable to seeking aid of philan
thropic millionaires."

FORT RILET. Kan., Oct, 27. All of tha

broke camp last night, for their tents were
atruck and all of tha heavy baggage loaded

The proceedings, however, compelled the

The balance of tha program for the regu
