COUNCIL BLUFFS
POLICE CLOSE UP SALOONS
Two of TLm fall Under tha Ban of Chief
of Polioe Eichmoni
SAID TO BE RESORT OF UNDESIRABLES
. . '..
peverat More Vnder the Br of tha
rollcc V and 'Will Be Closed
' r. I'ales Their Methods.
Are Changed.
Believing that the places were resorts for
uaslrble characters. Chief of Police
Richmond yesterday, ordered tha saloons of
JOhA i. CrW, at Thirty -seventh and Broad
way. T... Schtfferli at Sixteenth street and
Broadway, and C. N. Hooper at 60S Broad
way closed yesterday. Crow, learning Hie
"shlef's Intention, forestalled the officers, and
when they w4rit to' his plaoa yeaterdiy
morning fc carry oUt the Orders of their
eommaniHnr1 officer, they found the saloon
closed. 'Chief Richmond will ask the city
council to endorse "his action by revoking
the licences of the three places,
Chief Richmond hat one or mora saloons
under investigation, 'and at leust one mure
on Broadway, which has a reputation as
a retort for crooks aad-other-undesirable
characters' which will likely be dosed In
tha near Tutura. It- was- stated yeeterday
that Major'"- Richmond In his' crusade
against this flsss of saloons has the sup
port Of the city authorities.
Chapln, tha mart suspected of being one
of the two bandlta who held up the Fry
saloon, tiear the transfer- depot Monday
night, waa arrested In Crow's saloon and
the police for some time have suspected
that the place waa used as a rendesvous
by th croused elttflcnt of this city and
Omaha. John J. Crow Is a brother of thi
elusive Pat Crow, and the poHce are of
tha opinion that whan Pat pays his periodi
cal Visits to Council Bluffs he Is sheltered
by his brother, despite fhe fact that the
latter has persistently denied any
knowledge of h brother Pat being In this
vicinity.' '
'The recent numerous hold-upa and rob
beries have Instigated) the police depart
tnent to adopt more stringent measures
la ridding the city of undesirable char
acters. Owing to Its location Council Bluffs
la the rendesvotta every summer of an
army of tram pa, who tnfeat the local railroad-
yards. The order, has gone forth to
arrest every tramp or stranger who can
not give a satisfactory account of himself,
and they wttt be placed) at werk cleaning
the streets; A gang pf eleven, arrested
Thursday, waa put at work yesterday. In
charge of a special officer, cleaning the
stmts in the vtclalty of the city buildings.
All tramps arrested who refuse to .work
will be kept on a diet of bread and water
until Uwvy consent to work or,else leave the
city at .short notice. , . .,
It Is believed that If the word gets noised
abroad that Council Bluffs Is a bad plaoe
for tramps, that element will eventually
give the city a wide berth. - :

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Range Cattle Qneition is Bow Up for
Serious Attention.
RUN MAY BE I VIE IN STARTING
Shipments Likely to Be light Vntll
Last of August or First of Sep
tember I nless Prices Are
Tempting;.
From all Indications the run of range
cattle will be later this year than usual.
This Is accounted for by the fact that
the range grass was soft at the start on
account of freQuent rains. Now that the
grass Is curing nicely and herds are doing
well ranchmen do not want to ship. Ad
vices from the ranges received at the stock
yards yesterday varied. Some were to the
effect that shippers would hold on as Ions
as they could and the cattle continued to
fatten on the cured grass. These reports
make it evident that the heavy shipments
of range stuff will not commence before
the middle of September and will run up
well Into October. Still other advices are
to the effect that shipments will commence
the latter part of this month and continue
all through September. At the present time
ranchmen are busy putting away hay, and
Junt as long as their herds are doing nicely
shipments will not be made. Then there
is another point to be considered and that
is the market. A great many ranchmen,
when they are ready to ship, get together
and send In a few loads to feel the mar
ket. If it Is satisfactory the shipments
are rapid. If not stock Is held back until
prices reach the point ranchmen consider
about right. One well known old-timer
at the yards sald'lust evening that Just
as long as the cattle are fattening on the
range grass shipments need not be ex
pected unless the price Is right. Big runs
are expected when the season opens.
City Council Meeting.
An adjourned meeting of the city coun
cil was held last night and the ordinances
pertaining to Union Pacific Improvements
were given a second reading after having
been favorably reported on by the Judiciary
committee. These ordinances will come up
for final passage next Monday night and
will most likely b passed, as the city
officials seem to favor the idea of a new
passenger station and a freight depot. By
the making of these Improvements South
Omaha will secure a fine brick passenger
station and a much needed freight depot.
Property owners on N street are greatly
pleased at the prospects of having some
Improvements at the foot of the street.
