BLUFFS
HOLDS CLUB OYER THE CITY
Tabor Line Promote Demand that Bluffi
Citizens Take Stock.
OTHERWISE OMAHA TO BE TERMINUS
Clry Likely to Retaliate fcy Taklan
' Steps to Haee Franchlne Declared
Forfeited for Failure to
Comply st Kb Its Terms.
The promoters of the Council Bluffs,
Tabor & Southern Electric Railway com
pany have delivered an ultimatum to Coun
cil Bluffs. W. J. Dobbs, president of the
company which proposes to build the line,
and K. SI. Banger, representing a Boston
financial house which expects to float the
company's bonds at some future time, were
In the city yesterday and conferred with
individual members of the executive coni
mlttee of the Commercial club, but declined
to wait and nttend the regular meeting of
th'o committee when their proposition could
be formally discussed.
The dell thrown down by Messrs. Dobbs
and Sanger is, In brief, that unless the
"citizens of Council Bluffs subscribe J100.0O0
toward tlje stock of the company Council
Bluffs will be made- but a way station and
Omaha will be the terminal of the proposed
line. The demand of Messrs. Dobbs and
Sanger was received with a cold shoulder
by the Individual members of the executive
committee, but they were asked to meet
with the whole committee t Its weekly
session yesterday afternoon, when the mat
ter could be discussed. This, however,
Messrs. Pobbs and Sanger declined to do,
saying they had to return to Tabor.
Bo far the city council has taken no
action In the matter of annulling the fran
chise granted the Tabor company, but it
was stated yesterday afternoon that in
view of the fact that the promoters were
now attempting to hold a club over the
city for the purpose of forcing local capi
talists to take stock In the enterprise, steps
would be taken to have the courts adjudge
the franchise null and void for the reason
that the provisions as to beginning the
work of construction within a prescribed
time had not been complied with and that
the failure on the part of the company to
commence the work of construction In a
bona fide manner had forfeited ita r'ghts
under the charter ordinance.
The failure of the company to begin the
construction of Its proposed line within the
$lme prescribed by the ordinance hns cre
ated the Impression In this city that the
road will not be built and little credence is
placed In the reiterated statements of
I'resldent Dobbs and Promoter Sanger that
It will be. In the event of tho company
deotdlng to give Council Bluffs the cold
shoulder and make Omaha Its terminus,
steps. It Is snld, will be taken to prevent
the roadbul!ding a single yard of Its lino
through this city, the local authorities
holding that the company has already for
feited its charter by Its failure to com
mence In good faith the work of construc
tion of its line within the time prescribed
In the ordinance.
Although Messrs. Dobbs and Sanger were
not present, the matter was discussed at
the weekly meeting yesterday of the ex
ecutive committee of' the Cpmmerclal club,
and It was the general opinion that if the
Tabor company attempted to give Council
Bluffs the go-by it might find Itself with
out a franchise through this city which
would give it an Inlet to Omaha. The
committee decided to await further devel
opments before taking any action or asking
the city council to do so.
FIRST CASE ODER JUVENILE LAW
Authorities Pnmr.led to Know What to
Do with Boy.
The local authorities were yesterday con
fronted with the first case in this city
under the new Juvenile law, and for n
while were uncertain what to do with the
young offender. Sheriff Canning, to whom
the young defendant was turned over,
solved the problem temporarily by placing
him in St. Bernard's hospital in custody
of the Bisters of Mercy.
Hubert Thacker, a lB-year-old boy, llvlnf

Franks, a 7-year-old girl, with criminal
Intent The girl lives at 4101 Sixteenth
avenue.
The new law provides that . no youth
under the age of 1 years shall be placed
In a jail where adult prisoners are confined
and requires the Bard of County Super
visors to furnish, a place of detention for
such youthful offenders entirely dlstmct
and separate from the city or county Jails.
Buoh juvenile offenders must have their
preliminary heating before a Judge of the
district court, and not before the police
judge or justice of the peace.
There being no judge of the district court
In the city holding court, the question of
the disposition of young Thacker was re
ferred to Sheriff Canning. After a consulta
tion with Judge Green, who hnppened to
be In the city, but not holding court. Sheriff
Canning decided that the only place to
put the lad was In St. Bernard's hospital.
While the new law governing Juvenile
offenders seems to apply only .to such as
are guilty of misdemeanors. It does not
appear to apply to those charged with an
Indictable offense, such as young Thacker
Is accused of. The question now up to the
county attorney Is whether, considering the
nature of the charge against him, young
Thacker cannot be held for his preliminary
hearing before Justice Ouren, In whose
court the Information was filed.
Judge Green expects to be In the city
the early part of this week, and in the
absence of Judge Wheeler the question will
be submitted to him for his ruling.
The Board of County Supervisors will
meet In adjourned session Monday, at
which time County Attorney Klllpack will
call to their attention the provisions of
the new law regarding Juvenile offenders,
and It la expected It will make some ar
rangements for the detention of such of
endera against the law outside of the
county Jail. It Is expected that a room will
be fitted up In the county court house for
the detention of youthful offenders.

Gain Liberty on Way to Station.
MARBHALLTOWN, la., July 80. (Spe
cial.) Officer Joseph Edgar narrowly
escaped having the top of his head blown
off today by a man he was taking to Jull
as a suspected burglar.
The man was placed under arrest In con
sequence of Information received from Oel-
weln this morning to the effect that a
Jewelry store there had been robbed and
that tho thief was supposed to be In Mar-
halltown trying to dispose of the stolen
wares at a second-hand store. About
o'clock Edgar came across a man who Is
supposed to' be William O'Keep at Baes
second-hand store and arrested him. While
taking him to the Jail the prisoner sprung
In front of the officer with the words, "I'll
show you, d t- you." At the same time
he stuck his gun In the officer's face. The
officer grabbed the gun and in the scuffle
the man pulled the trigger. The ball
misses ICflgsr and Vwign in the leg of a
bystander named Frank Waldo, causing s
serious wound. Edgar's hand was badly
lacerated by the hammer of the revolver
and burned by the powder, as he had to
hold the man's hand, and the bull barely
missed him.
After landing the man In Jail a number
of pieces of Jewelry were found bearing
the price marks of 110 and $15. Altogether
there was about 1100 worth in the lot. On
his way to the Jail O'Keep dropped a com
plete set of burglar skeleton keys. The

DE8 MOINES. July 90. (8peclal.) What
appears to be conclusive evidence that the
deal for the transfer of the Newton &
Northwestern railroad to the Rock Island
is about to be consummated has
Just been furnished at Newton. The fact
that the Rock Island desires a connection
for Its Gowrle line other than over leased
lines, which would be necessary after the
taking over of the Fort Dodge branch by
the Minneapolis has long been known.
Last weel: Vice President Stevens of the
Rock Island went out over the Newton &
Northwestern on a tour of Inspection. This
week the matter of condemning land
through Newton for a connection for the
new line with the Montesuma branch of the
Iowa Central has been under way and a
sheriff's Jury had fixed prices on several
tracts, when a telegram was received by
the attorney in charge in which Hamilton
Browne, president of the Newton road,
asked that the condemnation proceedings
be put off one week. This Is regarded as
Indicating that the deaf- Is well advanced
And that the Rock Island Is about to ac
quire the property. It would make a fine
connection for the Gowrle line of the Rock
Island.
Secure Vital Statistics.
Secretary Kennedy of the State Board of
Health has Just completed the new blanks
for securing vital statistics of Iowa under
a new law. These blanks go to the doctors
of the state, who are required to make tu'.l
and complete reports of all births and
deaths in the state. Iowa had an old law
requiring this, and under It there was col
lected a vast amount of information as to
vital statistics of the state, but the law
was abandoned. The last legislature re
vived the law and placed upon the phy
sicians of the state the requirement that
the reports be made. Tbey will be col
lected and compiled by the State Board of
Health.
Novak Wonld Be Paroled.
Frank Novak of Benton county, who la

Novak Is alleged to have killed a tramp
In his store, then set Are to the store

claimed he was far from the scene of th
tragedy at the time. The evidence wa
entirely circumstantial and the Jury ha
recommended a ten-year sentence which,
ii given, wouia now De out. Much new
information in regard to the case has Just
been tiled with the governor, who haa
promised to take it up ao soon as he re
turns from his vacation.

Water Works Pays Well.
The first year of municipal ownership of
the city waterworks In Cedar Rapids Is
reported as showing a net pront of $12,600.
The water system was purchased there
under a long-time contract and is to be
paid for out of -the regular rentals. The
matter was taken into court and the ex
act e'atus, of the company has not as yet
been determined. There are but two large
cities in Iowa operating their own water
plants and both are financial successes,

No Bank Report Yet.
Receiver Shaw, who has charge of the
First National bank at Grinnell states that
he desires another week before he gives
out any statement as to the condition of
the bank. The examination is being made
thorough and in view of the fact that there
was a shortage In the bank many years
ago and this has been carried along by
Cashier Spencer, who died last week, the
examination will have to cover all the
business for more than ten years. It Is
understood that the directors have Infer
matlon as to the- condition of the bank.

SCRAMBLE IN THE WHEAT PIT
Chicago
Speculators Find There
t Enough Grain to Go
Around. .
Is
CHICACIO, July 80 There was more
han the .usual amount of excitement on
he Board of Trade today, being the last
buslnesti day of the month, thone who had
made sales of grain for delivery. In July
had to find the goods or pay the penalty,
and there was not wheat enough ottered
to satisfy the demand from shorts until
the price had been put up from 98 cents
to IMKH4 a buahel. There was probably a
otal of 600.000 bushels of July wheat thai
had to be bought under penalty around
he dollar mark. A prominent eastern
grain dealer Is said to have had a quantity
of wheat bought for July delivery and the
commlnslon houses through which he had
urchased It had received liuaruetlcms to
ellver the wheat. Much of the scramble
for the cash grain was attributed to his
uruhasPt. Two hundred and fifty thou
sand bushels of wheat delivered after the
session today did not begin to fill sll of ths
ales for July delivery, and It Ih tuld that
here was a default of about lXxo.ooo bush-
Is all told that will have to be m'tde good
by a cash penalty.
