LOCATING CAUSE OF DELAY
Contractors Say Engineer'i Department ii
Unable to Set Stakes.
MAKING OF ESTIMATES FAR IN ARREARS
Construction of Storm Sewer from
Oak Street to Indian Creek la
Authorised h- the t it?
. . t ouncil.
The city council last night determined to
ascertain who was responsible for the de
lay In the laying of brick sidewalks
throughout the city, some contracts for
which were let three or four years ago.
The contractors contend that they cannot
get the engineer's force to set stakes or
prepare estimates of work done, and that
they cannot continue doing public work
without receiving at least part of their
pay. In order that a thorough Investiga
tion of this matter may be made. Mayor
Macrae appointed Aldermen Olson, Vounk
erman and Crlppen as a special committee
to take charge of the inquiry.
Contractor Wlckham complained that
whereas he had completed between $35,000
and 140,000 worth of cement walks, he had
up to date been unable to secure any esti
mate, lie gave it us his opinion that the
city engineer needed additional help In view
of the lurge amount of public Nwork going
on. "It I get oji estimate -on my work at
the next meeting of the city council, as you
say I Willi I guarantee that there will not
be a foot of sidewalk In my contracts which
will not be laid within sixty days," he
said.
In connection with the cement wulks the
Construction Warehouse company of this
city, through Its secretary, H. W. Binder,
filed a protest against the Burlington rail
road being permitted to cut out the walks
In front of Us freight depot and grounds
on the east side of Main street between
Twelfth and Fourteenth avenues, the com
pany having been Informed that the rail
road had made such an application. Con
tractor Wlckham. was asked why he had
not gone ahead and laid the walk and he
replied that he had been Informed by Colo
nel Davenport of the railroad that he ex
pected to have the walks cut out.
"Colonel Davenport lias absolutely noth
ing to do with It," replied Mayor Macrae,
"and you' had better go ahead and lay the
walk .as provided for In your contract."
Orders Storm Sewer.
The action of the committee of the whole
in ordering a storm sewer built ucross
Broadway from the foot of On!: street Into
Indian creek to carry off the overflow from
Pierce street, was approved. Aldermen
Tlnley and Olson alone dissenting. It was
also decided to pave Oak street a width
of twenty feet; Broadway a width of thirty
feet, and construct a four-foot sidewalk
on Broadway at this point.
Residents on Scott street petitioned for
the paving of that street from Washington
avenue to the north end of the street.
Adolph Goldstein was granted a permit
to conduct a saloon at 216 West Broad
way. ' ' .
The application of William Busse, former
captain of police,- for an Investigation of the
cause's leading to his summary dismissal
from the force was referred to the mayor
without comment. ,j
The mayor announced "that the marshal's
force had received orders to begin the en
forcement of he new ordinance prohibiting
merchants and others from occupying more
than-eighteen Inches of the sidewalk In
front of their stpres. '.

than on Sunday, only about 1,100 people
gathering at the tabernacle. The Sunbeam

promises to prove one of the pleasing fea
tures of these meetings.
Mr. Williams preachsd the third pf the
aermona of the evangelistic ssrlea, taking
for hla text: "If ) abide In Ma and My
words abide In you ye shall ask what ye
will and It shall be done unto you." He

that In place of the several churches hold
ing separate services next Sunday morning

Attempt to Blow Safe.
An attempt to rob the safe In the office

amateurs, succeeded In breaking off the
hbndle of the safe with a sledge hammer
secured from a nearby blacksmith shop,
but failed to open It. No attempt was
made to drill the combination or open the
safe by any other means. Entrance was
evidently effected by opening the front
door of the building with a skeleton key
and exit made by a side door. Tfee side
door was found unfastened yesterday
morning when the bookkeeper opened up
the office. .This door, however, could not
hare been opened from the outside, as In
addition to a heavy bolt. It was protected
with a heavy crossbar set Into iron brack
ets, which were found Intact. All the
thief-or thieves secured was some small
change from the cash register and cash
drawer.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Oct. J. (Special. I Disrup
tion of a leading church of this city is
threatened over a $10 contribution from
the most conspicuous owner of saloons In
the city. Some time ago B. F. Parker,
who has had as many as twenty saloons
at one time, and Is now engaged In plan
ning for a big brewery, contributed $10 to
the Sixth Presbyterian church. . The pas
tor returned the money with a curt note,
because he refused to accept mon?y from
such a source. Ex-Chief Justice C. C.
CoK who Is conspicuous In his church, an
nounced that he would collect the contri
bution and se,e that It was applied to
church uses. The Ministerial association
hag approved the stand taken by the
church pastor, Rey. Charles Lea Reynolds.
The belief of the pastor and of the Minis
terial association Is that Parker was t ey
ing to curry favor so that his petition for
establlphme nt and operation of a brewery
would not be too hard fought by the
church people. Now there Is a threat of
disruption In the church over the quosrljn
whether the saloon man' money Is as
good as other money, and whether It
would look like compromising with a brew
ery project to accept it.
Railroad Men Promoted.
Some changes were announced here today

The removal if Mrs. Belie M. Hlouten
borough from I'lnttsmouth to Seattle,
.Wash., has occasioned not a little regret
among Nebraska club women aside from
the losing of one of Its very prominent
and efficient members. At the St. Louis
blmnlal Mrs. Ptoutenborough waa elected
a member of the General Federation board
of directors, there being but eight such
members, and Nebraska had long con
tended for one of these offices, which are
valuable to a. atate not alone In point of
honor. The removal of a director from
one state to another does not bar her from
continuing her dutUs In that office, but
the women, so far as the matter has been
dljcussed Informally, are of the' opinion
that Mrs. Stoutcnborough, having left the
atate. will not deprive Nebraska of this
honor that it awarded to a state rather
than to the woman n ho- -holds the office,
and will resign In favor of some woman
who will reside In NWaska.
The Omaha Woman's club met yesterday

good beginning promises to restore the

funds to its reserve fund, which now
amounts to $2,0u0. the club finds Itself
rather cramped for money Just now, having
but 500 available. Because of this It was
deemed advisable to cut .expenses, and, as
the present quarters really are larger than
necessary, a proposition to rent quarters
at Chambers' academy was considered, but
this did not meet the favor of the entire
club, some of whose members felt that
the amount saved was not sufficient to
Justify the sacrifice of room or accommo
dations, and definite action was postponed,
with the recommendation that Unity church
be considered.
The educational committee reported It
had conferred with both the republican and
democratic committees regarding the can
didacy of a woman member of the school
board and that both recommended that the
names of two representative women be
presented. However, the committee de
clined to do this, as. according to the con
stitution of the club, It has no authority
to participate In things political. However,
that the women generally are favorable to
the nomination of a woman as a member
of the school board was proven when one
of the committee member said she did not
consider the women were ready for that
step Just yet. This was Immediately re
sented from the floor.
The following delegates and alternates to
the annual meeting of the state federation,
to be held at Seward next week, were
elected: Mrs. I. R. Andrews, Mrs. W. P.
Harford, Mrs. Frank Carmlchael, Mrs. H.
J. Penfold, Miss Josle McIIugh, Mrs. 8. R.
Towne, Mrs. A. L. Sheetx, Mrs. Samuel
Rees. Alternates: Mrs. H. S. Jaynes, Mrs.
Blanche McKelvey, Mrs. Clara Burbank,
Mra. J. "R. Webster, Mrs. O. W. Noble,
Mrs. F. S. Owen, Mrs. B. F. Weaver, Mrs.
Shlndell.
It was decided to hold an Informal recep
tion after the next meeting of the club,
when Mrs. Nellie Kedzle Jones will lec
ture, that the women may meet her.
The following department notices were
read: Household economics, October 20,
10 a., m.; art, October J3, 10 a. m.; social,
science, October 24, 3:30 p. m.; current
topics, October 11, 2:30 p. m.J music, Oc

Tho annual meeting of the executive
board and standing committees of the Iowa
Federation of Woman's Clubs was held ot
the home of the president, Mrs. T. J.
Fletcher of Marshalltown, recently and was
nearly complete In numbers. One of the
most Important matters coming before the
body was a proposed amendment to the
constitution and bylaws, offered by Mrs.
J. W. Cory, vice president, providing for
a 'change In the manner of election of
officers and an Increase In the state dues.
The proposed' change In the election laws
is Intended to save the time of the meeting
and provides for taking the Informal and
formal ballot outside the meeting, the plan
being modeled, it Is suld, after that of the
Minnesota federation. The Thcrease in dues
is small, but the executive committee con
siders it favorably, It is Bald. While there
was some discussion of the proposed
changes, they were not formally considered
and will not be taken up by the committee
until its meeting next March, the last be
fore the Iowa biennial. The redisricting j
or the atate waa the most Important con
sideration and a change was made thnt
will go Into effect May 1, when the new
district chairmen will be elected at the
biennial state meeting. In the 'past the
federation has been divided according to '
the congressional districts ot the stats, but '
as this arrangement Is in many cases In
convenient, new divisions were made to
Include the varloua counties aa follows:
First Lyon, Osceola, Sioux, O'Brien, Ply
mouth, Cherokee, Woodbury, Monona.
