The city council at Its meeting last night
evaded further discussion of the new
water rate schedule for the present. by
lnxtructlng the special committee, of which
Councilman Wallace Is chairman, to report
an ordinance embracing a schedule of
rates at the meeting next Monday night.
A motion to adjourn had been made by
Councilman Fleming, when one of the
councilmen suggested that something ought
to be done about the water works matter.
Councilman Wallace at once took the floor
and stated that as he understood it the
matter was now out of the hands of the
special committee and was with the coun
cil at large. This, he said, he Judged was
the situation from the action taken al
the meeting last " Wednesday night The
other councllmon said he was mistaken
and that there had been no Intent to take
the matter out of the hands of the spe
cial committee, and to prove their state
ment they voted that the special commit
tee prepare a rate ordinance and submit
the eamo at the next regular meeting,
which Is next Monday night.
While this discussion was proceeding
Councilman Younkerman presented to City
Clerk Sapp, a document which he said
was an ordinance embracing a rate sched
ule, which he wanted submitted to The
council. Mr. Younkerman declined to
state from what source the ordinance
emanated, but In a'nswer to a question
from Mayor Macrae said It was not from
the special water works committee, of
which he Is a member. It was accordingly
concluded that the ordinance was drafted
by or at the Instance of the councilman
from the First ward. Mayor Macrae fore
stalled any action looking towards the
Younkerman ordinance reaching the coun
cil last night by Insisting that it should
properly be referred to the special oom
mlttee and there It went without dis
cussion. Younkerman Is Bitter.
The only Information vouchsafed by Mr.
Younkerman was that the ordinance con
tained practically the same rates as those
embraced In the ordinance passed in Febru
ary of last year except that the hydrant
rental had been raised from $46 to $50. The
ordinance to which Mr. Younkerman re
ferred did not provide for a minimum rate.
In presenting his ordinance to the city
clerk, Mr. Younkerman took occasion to de
clare that It was offered as a substitute
for the "unfair, unreasonable and unlaw
ful" ordinance prepared by W. Klersted,
the expert engineer employed by the city to
assist the special committee In preparing
a schedule of rates snd which certain mem
bers of this committee now wish to dis
own or discredit.
L. M. Beaver, secretary and treasurer of
the National Humane alliance, of New
York City made a proposition to Install
! a drinking fountain for the accommodation
of horses free of expense to the city beyond
that of keeping It In repair and supplied
with water. The fountain Is to be erected
at the intersection of Broadway and Fourth
street. A suggestion was made that It be
lighted at night, but Councilman Smith
Interposed an objection on the grounds that

tFrom a Staff Correspondent)
DBS MOINES, April 29. (Special. -An 1&-months-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
Garrison was pronounced dead three times
last week and Is living today, with every
Indication that It Is past the danger point
of dying and will recover. The Infant had
diphtheria. A physician, ons of the best of
Des Moines, Inserted a silver tube In the
child's throat and during the operation It
ceased breathing. It was later pronounced
dead and placed on the table. The parents
covered It with a sheet. Later It was seen
to gasp and the physician, who had not left
tha house, administered a saline solution.
Introducing It Into the Infant's veins, and It
was resuscitated. It was again pronounced
dead a week ago last Sunday, but a phys
ician was called. The child had stopped
breathing, but efforts were made success
fully to bring It back to consciousness. It
was pronounced dead again last week Tues
day, but was again revived by the same
treatment as was used the first two times.
It Is asserted now that the child will re
cover. Receiver Is In Charsje.
Receiver B. F. Fry Is In charge of the
defunct Seymour Farmers and Drovers'
bank. The bank was turned over to him 1
today by Leland Windsor, state bank ex
aminer. Fry will have complete charge of
the bank and will either wind up Its affairs
or reorganize It, as the stockholders wish
and are able to raise the necessary cash.
It Is admitted now by everyone that the
stockholders will be asueesed the full
amount of their stock and that even then
the depositors will lose considerable
money. Cashier Ware, when placed under
arrest. Intimated that other prominent per
sons In the community would be implicated.
At the office of the state auditor nothing
new concerning the bank Is known today
except that the bank examiner will remain
to complete tha examination and determine
the amount of shortage. It Is believed now
that this will amount to close to $240,000,
which Is almost wholly In the form of de
posits, certificates for which were Issued,
but for which there was no record on the
