Michael ren of Omaha and Supreme Trustee Peter sen of this city. . Supreme Secretary Mlchaelsen made the following statement a the press dispatches from Racine and Chicago, be (did, were misleading and In correct: .( The reserve fund, which amounts to 1.14, CVi, was not in Ksklldsen's hands. II was and Is safely under lock and key In one of the safety deposit vatllts In the First National bank of Omasn. ' There are thi-ee separate and different keys to the deposit vault and each of the three supremo trustee ts custodian 'of one of the kejrs. consequently th reserve fund cannot be , touched or the deposit vault opened except by the three trusteea together. , Former Treasurer Eklldgn'a shortage I cannot exceed fcll,00 and probably will not be that much. In any case, the Danish Hrotherhood will not loss a dollar, as Ksklldsen was bonded by two surety com panies In the aggregate sum of l-Tt.ODo, At the recent quadrennial convention of the order In Council muffs. It was decided to make a radical change tn the method of keep.ng the funds of the order. Heretofore Treasurer Ksklldsen had kept the money In such bank as he willed mid In bis own name. At the, convention the Commercial National bank of Chicago! was selected as the depository for the funds of the order, the bank giving a bond n Iful.fKiO to protect ihe order in case or posetnie failure, xna . k ilay following the close r the convention, a meeting of the executive committee . ih. nr.r m.Ki..n ..n..ita Af h nr.ii. I dent, vice president and the three trusteea. Treasurer F.skildsen, who had been re elected by i the convention, was directed to transfer at once all funds of the order In his possession to the Commercial Na tional bank of Cbba-go. Ksklldsen said tie had soma bnslnessTlo attend to In Iowa and that he could not return to Chicago at that time, hut would meet the com mittee there October 37. when he would make the transfer. When the committee went to Chicago on the date named - ' klldsen was found to be 'missing and the money not transferred a directed. The shortage, which had been suspected, then ; became apparent. I I The executive committed, acting under I the authority Imposed on It, appointed Kof , Rosniussen of Chlcago-as supreme trews- urer. the convention In this city having I elected Mr. Kastnussen aa Esklldscn's alter nate. I I'nder tho new system of keeping the 1 funds of tho order, as decided upon by the recent convention, there will be hardly any chance of a defalcation by the treas urer. All checks drawn on t he funds of tho order are to be eountersigned by the president and secretary and the bank In to make a statement monthly to the secre tary showing the deposits and disburse ments. This monthly statement will then be copied and sent to each of the three trustees.

W H Report an the 'Water Works Matter Completed. The regular monthly session of the city council Is scheduled for this evening and It la possible that William Kiersted. the expert employed to make a computation of the value of the present water works plant and estimate of the cost of a new one. may be here today and submit bis report at the meeting tonlrht. Councilman Wal lace, "chairman of the special water works committee, stated last evening that he ex pected Mr. Kiersted here today, although he had no definite assuranc from Mr. Kiersted to thaw effect. In his letter to Councilman Wallace, received by the latter last Wednesday. Mr. Kiersted merely slated that he had his report completed and hoped to be In Council Bluffs in u few days. Mr. Kiersted Is fully aware that tlu council holds Its regular meeting on the first Monday In the month and this In clines Councilman Wallace to believe that he will be here today. Other members of the council, however, do not look fur Mr. Kiersted until after election. Not the lfht.,,t information as to the nut live i.f I1nt""t information as to the nntute of Mr. Kiersted s reoorL has been received here. At tonight's meeting the committee on fire and light', to which was added the mayor and city electrician, will present a report on the disposition of the twenty or more additional lights under the new lighting contract with the Citizens' Gas and Electric, company, and the re-location of several of the old ones.

Keller, ' Reopenlnsj of Bloomer School. The Bloomer school has been closed for one week on account of the principal. Miss Hardin, and two or three of the pupils being attacked with diphtheria. While closed the building has been thoroughly fumigated and disinfected and the school authorities believe there will be no danger In opening the school today. Superintend? nt Clifford stated yesterday that everything possible had been done during the week the school had been closed to give It a most thorough disinfecting, and after a conference with the health au thorities. It had been decided that there would bo no danger In reopening the school this morning. Miss Hardin was reported yesterday to be nearly convalescent, and as far as was known there were no new cases of the dread disease among the children attend ing this school. The last case reported was that of the little daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Marcus P. McClure, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, which de veloped Saturday.

RAILROADS FAIL TO KELP UP TO DATE Traffic- Increases More Rapidly Than Equipment to Handle It Is Iro- Idrrt t loslnn- In ( am ps Ian, (From a Staff Correspondent.) Di:S MOINES, Nov. 4. (8pccial.) Be cause of Its being one of the first Impartial and absolute authentic reports on the con dition of a municipal plant the report cf the Inspectors on the accounts of the city of Atlantic Is considered by students of municipal affairs one of the most Im portant. The city of Atlantic owns both its water works and electric light plants und there 'is agitation at this time tn the city lor the rale of the electric light plant. The matter must be submitted to a vote of the people before the plant can be sold ami the sale Involves with It the letting of a franchise to an electric railway. The figures tiled with the state auditor by the Inspectors of city accounts for both the a4r'' works and electric light plants cover a period from April 15. 10H,to September -5. 1!"". In the case of the electric light plant the receipts from consumers were !tKK,itT.33 for the live and a half years, and the espeniliturcs were jni.TKl.ai. less $:;,flixt, which was illegally transferred to the water woiks fund to help pay for the water works plant. The street lighting, which had cost the city a month, or J.'1oO a year, under the municipal ownership of the plant cost the city but $:!.ra4.3a for five years and a half. During that period, however, there was pnid into the treasury from an clectrlo light tax the sum of i;,t0".34. but the fund has $!.ts:'."t In cash on hand, which with the $o,(iii0 Illegally transferred, would make $12.4S2.24, showing that the plant could operate and pay all expenses without tax ation. Tho Knowing should even be better ,l,a" "' for the lt,mn ot P"""ture lnPre ar R lar(fe umr of lt"" tnat really mounW to """n"'"1 and Im- ! provements in tne plant, wnicn snouiu us i a Is from tho period from April 15, 1S01. to ! September 23, lSoS. as 3 307.24, which sum I came entirely from supplying consumers J with water and making connections and j the like. The expenditures during the same period were $49,(2.0i, showing a clear gain, the plant being operated at a profit and the city getting Us own water for the fire hydrants and public buildings free. o Actlou on Trusts. It Is probable that no action will be taken against the trusts by Attorney General Mullen. His term lasts but two months more and the time between now and the close of his term Is hardly sufficient to begin any litigation such as that would the. Furthermore, the evidence taken In the groin hearing In thla city recently that might give him some Information for pro ceeding against the-Grain trust cannot be had unless congress should vote an appro priation and order the work printed. Railroads Don't Keep I p. With the exception of one or two small matters the railroads have fallen far short of keeptng their equipment up to the con dition of the' freight business, according to tiie report of the Iowa Railroad com mission that has Just been made public. The tonnage, according to this report, has been shipped over the railroads that trav erse Iowa amounted to 172 per cent more than It did back In 189i. fifteen years ago. On the other hand, the number of box cars available on the same lines for ship ment of grain and the produce of he farm amounted to but 131 per cent, and freight engines 119 per cent. The total number of box cars, coal cars, flat cars, stock cars' and the llkt'. Including all cars for ship ping freight, has Increased in the saino period of years but 144 per cent. Increase In the sire of cars and the power of the locomotives would, of course, make con siderable difference. Rivalry for Banners. A stiff competition Is likely to ensue for the Tippecanoe banner and flag that Is given each election to the county making the greatest republican gain and to the county making the greatest republican vote. At the last general election tne com petition was so close that It was somo days after the election before the matter could be determined and the banner and flag awarded. With tho recurrence of the custom of the Tippecanoe club to give this banner and Hag interest Is beginning to center In the occasion. It la made a sort or rcpubllcini jollification following the election, and prominent men of the party aro CBlled in from over the state to de liver the addresses of presentation of the trophies to the counties winning them. Tho Tippecanoe club has for the past two or thtco weeks been Into the campaign In a strenuous manner In spite of the age of the members in an effort to line up straight party votes and with signs ot KUCCChS. Many Speeches Monday, Although the campaign Is practically 1 over so far as the workers are concerned the republicans will hold a numlier of rallies and addresses tomorrow. Governor ! Cummins will speak In Dubuque that; niht. Secretary Wilson at his home in j Truer, Secietary Shaw at his home lit , Dcnlson, Senator Dolllver at his home In Webster county, Auditor Carroll at his! home in ua is couniy unu vv eou nyers at Ills home In Shelby county and ex-Governor l.ariabee at his home in Fayette county. Eveiy candidate on the republican ticket except the governor, who makes a speech today closing the campaign, will make that sMich ut his home, tin the democratic Hide the rallies for Monday night are con lined entirely to lle big rally In this city, which will 1 addressed by Claude R. Porter, the candidate for governor. After the Violators. The secretary of state Is out af:er the violators of the automobile registering law. He has r.o funds with which to h.int up llio violators other than to draw on the contingent expense fund for stamps to wtllc letters over the state, but In that manner lie ahs been anle to ferret out any number cf violators. The public Is conMi.ually misunderstanding the law, which provokes and bothers the secretary cf slate's office. The law requires that automobiles must be regisured, and when registered the secretary nf state supplies the machine with a number, which must Ik? hung from the tear. If the machine Is old the number still stsys with It. but the new owner must reregister It. Many automobillsts do not do this. Some think, havlr.g bought the uumber with the ma chine, there Is nothing to be done. Other auloiiK bilista when they aell a machine J hike off the number and attarh It to the next new machine thai they own. Both ciuisea aie illegal and the secretary of mate 1 having hard work to gel the auto mobile public to understand It. Despondent Wunaaa Hills Herself. SlOl'X CITY. la..
