THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1005. 9 COUNCIL BLUFFS BROWN SECURES INJUNCTION Suprem Court to Hear the Ditch Casss Laitir Pars ef Lonth. ' SICKNESS DELAYS THE BELL TRIAL Jadaes Fit Date of (oort Wkrri ""hey Will Preside Is This Dls trlet Darin the Coming . , Year. Notices were served yesterduy on county Attorney J. J. Hess, County Auditor W. C.; Cheyne and the members of the Board of Supervisors that Judge Deemer of the supreme court nad granted .at the request of, R. A, brown A Co. of Washington. Ind., an order restraining the supervisors of llarrteon and Pottawattamie counties from taking any further steps towards entering Into the contract recently awarded the Western Dredging company and Pollard, ' Oolt Co.- for the construction of the proposed joint drainage ditches until the last Tuesday In October, when a hearing will be had before the entire supreme bench at bes Moines. The boards of the two counties are scheduled to meet In adjourned Joint es slon In - this city today, but In face of Judge Deemer's restraining order no action ban no wbt taken In the matter of the contracts. , A further adjournment. It is expected, will be taken to some date sub sequent to -the hearing at Des Moines. County Attorney Hess, In spiking of the matter yesterday, said that the se curing of an Injunction by Brown & Co. would , 'not '. delay, matters materially, pro vided a final hearing on the case could be .hod before the supreme court this year, but that It would in the event of the In junction suit not being reached by the su preme 'court until next spring or summer. Mr. HeSs, , however, expressed the opinion that It was doubtful t,f the supreme court would ' grant Brown & Co. a supersedeas without a heavy bond, as had been the case in the Injunction In the Harrison-Monona county ditch. Whether Brown St Co. would be prepared to furnish 'a bond, which Mr. Hess estimated ought to be in an amount of from- $100,000 to 1300,000, he was unable , to say. In any case, Mr. Hess said, the present 'injunction proceedings would delay-matter sufficiently to prevent any chance of the contractor commencing work thla year. Rleknea Delay Bell Trial. In the district court yesterday the trial of H B. Bell, the young man Indicted on two -counts In connection with the theft of ticket from ' the depot of the Rock Island railroad in this city, which was as signed for yesterday, was continued untU next term at the request of the defendant. Young Dell's mother I seriously 111 at her home in Hamburg, and the continu ance' was agreed to by the county attor ney on the express stipulation that Bell at the next term would enter a plea of guilty and not put the state to the ex pense" of a trial. Toung Bell has already confessed to the theft and is out on bond furnished by hi mother and relative in Hamburg. The "trial of David T. Stubbs. former cashier of the Cltlsens' Oas and Electric company, charged, with embexxlement, is slated for today.. County Attorney Hess tated last evening that he was prepared to Try Hlrs -case and that he would oppose any application on 'th part. of the de fendiflt forJPpntliwance. T '" VM ' . i - ' DOYLE ASKS FOR A SEW TRIAL dieMtas Riri Whether Motion la ,i' ffllBt. .; A ''motion aadl application" for a new trial in the toyle-Burns mining suit was filed yestej-dAy fn the district court by Doyle's local attorney. Th. document, covering as it does a large number of closely k typewritten sheets. Is a most volu minous affair and contains beside several lengthy 1 affidavits, photographic cople of stock ertincarte No. 1,060 of the Portland Oold Alining company and of certain cer tificated f deposit which are alleged repre sent dividends on the t.000 shares repre sented by the stock certificate, all of which form the basts far a, .considerable part of the motion. With the filing' of this application for a new trial arises the question as to whether Doyle can secure a new trial by filing a mo tion or whether it la not necessary for him to file a -petition. Attorneys for Burns con tend that he must file a petition. In which event he would have to secure service on Bums In this state before he could get his petition for a new trial before the court. Congressman - Walter I. Smith, one of Burns counsel, appeared In court yesterday afternoon when the motion was filed by Doyle' attorney as a "friend of the court" and suggested the necessity under the Iowa statute that any application for a new trial must, under the circumstances, be not in the form of a motion, but a petition. This Is the second motion for a new trial which has been filed since the trial of the case last spring, when the Jury returned a verdict In favor of the defendant. James F. Burns, and Doyle's attorney requested Judge Macy to set a date for a hearing on It and to-prescribe what kind of a notice should be given the other side. Judge Macy declined to act in the matter himself and set Monday, October 30, for the hearing, which will be held before Judge Thornell, before whom the suit was tried last spring. . The motion and application for a new trial la baaed upon th claim of newly dis covered evidence and alleged fraud on the pert of counsel for the defense. The charge of alleged fraud relates to the story of W. B. Fisher of this city btlng employed by counsel for the defense during th last trial to circulate defamatory re ports coneemlng Doyle In connection with hi serving on the staff of Governor Pea body during the Colorado labor troubles. In an affidavit accompanying the motion filed yesterday Doyle goes at length Into the history of his efforts to ascertain how the seal of the state of Colorado had been secured to the copy of his commission, which It Is alleged Fisher us-d to Injure him during the trial here. In support of the claim of newly dis covered evidence affidavits of John S. Baker. M. E. Irving and James Couahlln are filed. These affidavits sre In support tf Doyle's contention that he and Burns were partners in the mining claims in contro versy. The main point, however, which It Is evi dent Doyle relies on In his application for a new trial Is the return to him recently of 2.000 shares of the rortland company and W.oOo In accumulated dividends. That these shares belonged to Doyle was recently dis covered hut counsel for Burns Insist thst they formed no part of the shares Involvi-d In the suit. It Is said by the latter that they formed part of a number of shares purchased Jointly by Burns, Doyle and Perk.

Prisoner Surprise Jadsre. DAVENPORT, la., Oct. 16. (Special.) Something that has probably never occurred in the criminal history of Scott county took place here when Jack Halllnan asked Judge Bylngton to give him the limit of ten year in the penitentiary. The Judge, surprised at the startling request, asked Halllnan why he deBlred to be' locked be hind th bars for ten years when he might have gotten away with two or three years. Haljlnan responded that he had been a curse to society for years, and that he thought that If he were locked up In the penitentiary he might In years outgrow the terrible curse that had fastened itself upon him. After hearing the statement of the man Judge Bylngton concluded that he was right and Halllnan was sentenced to ten years in the penitentiary at Anamosa. Warning to Yoini Girl. SIOUX CITY, . Ia., Oct. 16. (Special.) Rev. J. G. Murtagh. at a Father Matthew memorial meeting, issued a warning to the girl of the Epiphany cathedral parish against marrying- men addicted to the use of intoxicants with the intention of reform ing them. He said the girl who took such a course was running long chances and he cited numerous Instances which had come under his observation In order to prove his contention.

Paving Bond Signed. Monday afternoon the $60,000 Twenty fourth street paving bonds and the 120.000 Intersection paving bonds were signed by Mayor Koutsky and City Clerk Glllln. A soon a the securities were signed the pack age was turned over to Frank J. Morlarty, cashier of the Packers' National bank. , Today the bonds will be shipped east for collection. It Is thought that by the end of the week the money will be received from W. J. Hayes A Sorts; the purchasers, and placed to the credit of City Treasurer Howe at the Packers' bank. With the money to pay for the paving of Twenty-fourth street In. sight, there can be no reason for delay except the weather. The contractors. Park, Johnson St Parks, announced a week ago that they were ready to start the tearing up of the old asphalt pavement, but up to last night a start had not been made. The sea son Is getting so late now that it seem hardly probable that one side of the street can be paved this year, a was the Inten tion. City officials are well pleased with the haste made by the purchasers of the bonds In having the histories examined by the bond attorneys. On September 11 bids for these bonds were opened by the council. The wrst award was made to a Cincinnati firm on an error and special meetings of the council had to be held to correct the error. It was after the middle of September before the buyers received the histories, so that It can be seen that there was conslder abl haste shown In having the bonds ap proved and the blank bonds lithographed and sent here for signature. With the pre mium and accrued Interest the city will re ceive about tsi,700. Vnlon Pnrlfle Surveyors.

When Judge Vlnsonhaler called the case County Attorney Slabaugh, Mr. English and Crowe stood up. When asked the ques tion, "Are you guilty or not guilty?" Crowe answered in a low voice, "Not guilty." Then County Attorney Slabaugh asked that the ball In the case charging robbery of $25,000 from Edward A. Cudahy be fixed at $10,000.

He concluded by fixing the amount of bond at $7,000. Crowe Bat down until the large crowd at tracted had melted away and wa then taken back to the Jail handcuffed to Jailer Roach. CLARKE ELECTED PRESIDENT Chosen Hend of Ministerial Associa tionOrganisation 1 Asked to Go Into Politic.' The annual election of the Omaha Minis terial association at the Young Men's Chris tian association rooms Monday morning re sulted In the choice of Rev. A. 8. C.- Clarke of Lowe Avenue Presbyterian church for president, Rev. John Randolph Smith of Trinity Methodist church for vice presi dent, and Rev. Andrew Renwick of the United Presbyterian church of South Omaha for secretary-treasurer. An execu tive committee wa chosen to consist of Saves All Wasted With Other Stoves For Hard Coal, Soft Coal or Lignite The waste of gas in burning hard coal is shown by opening the magazine cover of an ordinary base burner, when the oxygen supplied fills the entire stove with (laming gas. Cole's Hot Blast stove burns this gas in hard coal which, in ordinary stoves, escapes, on account of their leaky con struction, causing great waste and endangering health and life when it escapes into the rooms. In the ordinary magazine hard coal stove, three-fourths of the coal is partially consumed in the magazine, where it gives off no heat, as it is not in contact with the radiating surface. The one fourth of the coal in the fire pot must be kept at a white heat combustion to throw the heat into the rooms, thus causing great waste. Cole's Hot Origina Blast Rev. E. R. Curry of the Calvary Baptist church. Rev. A. J. Folsom of the Plymouth Congregational church and Rev. 8. D. , Dutcher of the First Christian church. i Rev. W. H. Reynolds of Castellar Street Presbyterian church read a paper on "Christ in the Psalms." It was discussed by the association. E. H. Packard, secretary of the Interna tional Christian Institute and of the execu tive committee of the Good Government league, explained the nature and purpose of the league and he asked the assistance of the ' ministers in building up Its membership. He suggested that eac-jnlnlater enlist the interest of some influential man in his church and let that man work among the. church members for ' the league. Mr. Packard said the purpose of the leagu wa to select and elect. Irrespective of party, the best man available for public office. He explained that last week the executive committee had sent out to the members of the league printed information as to the records of the candidates on all the tickets. Ballots were enclosed and the members were asked to select the men they wished to endorse for election In November. These will be returned to the executive committee next Monday night and the endorsements of candidates will be made. The combustion chamber and the magazine are combined in this stove and the Combustion is Perfect. The stove is filled to the top of the inside cast iron lining. This large body of hard coal is burned under perfect control by means of the abso lutely air-tight construction of the stove giving perfect con trol over the drafts. The coal is kept at a slow, economical cherry red combustion and as the heat is in direct contact with every square inch of the sensitive steel radiating sur face, all the heat is radiated into the room where it is wanted and not blanketed in and sent up the chimney. Hard coal t Cherry Red Combustion burns 45 hours, while at white heat tt is consumed in from 2 to 5 hours. Sold Under a Positive Guarantee We Guarantee Cole's Original Hot Blast to use less hard coal for heating a given space than any base burner with the same heating surface. Requires attention only morning and night with hard coal. Warm rooms day and night. No escaping gases to endanger life. The heat wasted up the chimney with other stoves is saved. Burns Any Fuel Saves Half Cole's Hot Blast is not only a perfect hard coal stove, but is generally recognized as the most econom ical and cleanest soft coal stove made. Soft coal is half gas and a $.voo ton of soft coal or a $2.00 ton of slack is made to do the work of $9.00 worth of hard coal, as the gas half is utilized as a heat producer. It burns soft coal, hard coal or wood without any change of fixtures. Scientific Construction J's .
