The city council 'met yesterdav afternoon
In adjourned regular session as a com
mittee of the whole, but owing to the fact
that one of the patrol wagon horses Is
laid up with distemper the work mapped
out for the afternoon had to be post
poned. It was the intention of the coun
cllmen to make a tour of the streets
which It la proposed to pave this year, with
a view to determining whetrter the abut
ting property could stand the cost of the
suggested Improvement, The councllmen
were opposed to walking, not on the
grounds of the physical exercise involved,
but because they thought It would con
sume loo much of their valuable time.
The patrol wagon, the usual conveyance
for the eounellmanlc body when on a tour
of the city, not being available, owrng
to the Indisposition of one of the horaeis,
It was decided to hire an automobile. Tho
only auto in the city of sufficient ca
pacity to accommodate the members of
the city council happened to be In the
shop for repairs. A liveryman was ap
pealed to for a team, but without re
sult, and then Contractor E. A. Wickham.
ever willing to help the councllmen out
of a hole when ths opportunity would
preaent Itself to him. offered to loan one
of his teama. which was working at the
new bridge on Bryant street. The team
was brought to police headquarters and
everything was ready to hitch It to the
patrol wapon. but the councllmen backed
down when they saw the work horses.
"Why. we might Just as well drive
around the city In Dobson's garbage wag
on." they cried In unison, and on motion
of Councilman Olson, who was presiding
In the absence of Mayor Maloney, It was
decided to adjourn until this afternoon,
by which time City Clerk Cnsady prom
ised to have arrangements made for an
autoniohlle.
The only business transacted at the city
council session waa the granting of a
saloon permit to Frank Neltner, 3700 West
Broadway.
In committee of the whole the council
men took up Councilman Bellinger's ordi
nance providing for the division of the
First precinct of the Sixth ward Into two
voting precincts. After some discussion
during the absence of the member from
the Sixth ward, who did not arrive until
later In the proceedings, It was decided lo
corn-promise matters by fixing the dividing
lino st Twenty-third street. The ordinance
as submitted by Mr. Bellinger called for
the line of demarcation at Twenty-eighth
street. Mr. Bellinger said he expected to
oppose the line being fixed at Twenty-third
street when the ordinance comes before
the city council next Monday night with
the recommendation of the committee of
the whole.
Some time ago P. F. Petersen, a local
artist, offered to sell to the city an oil
painting of Council Bluffs in the pioneer
days, to he hung In the eounellmanlc
chamber. The committee of ths whole de
cided to recommend that in view of the
depleted condition of the municipal troas-
ury the painting be not purchased.
City Solicitor Kimball stated that during
I the taking of testimony In the suit brought
j by the C. B. Nash company of Omaha
to restrain the city from Issuing the pro
posed VK,000 water works bonds it had
' been claimed by the plaintiff company that
the names of several signers of the peti
tion asking the submission of the proposi
tion to Issue the bonds of a special election
could not be found In the city directory.
Mr. Kimball suggested that the councilmen
who had been active In circulating these
petitions assist him In locating these per
sons, so that they might i 3iibpoenaed to
testify on behalf of the city. It was ar
ranged that the councllmen who circulated
i these petitions meet with Mr. Kimball In
I his office and check over the list of sign-
wii.ii not ilf iuf:niiiia any disputed
names. 1

Tho firemen, who wers quickly on tht

locate the seat of the blae by the dense
smoke which filled the rooms. It was
fou id, however, to have originated under

TROIBLEsI OF ALTOMOBII.F. MAM
Arrested Misdemeanor Charge and
Maehlae Attached.
The trials, tribulations and misfortunes
of George W. Moore, the Omaha auto
moblllst charged with reckless driving on
lower Broadway at an early hour on the
morning of March 21. wnen he ran his
machine Into tho wagon of J. P. Bsrnett,
who waji coming from Omaha with his
load nf morning paper, piled up with a
fearsome rapidity yesterday morning.
Moore's hearing was set for the morn
ing session of police rourt and he drove
over from Omaha In Ms automobile. In
cidentally. It may he noted that he re
turned aoross the river In a street par.
His machine, which was attached In con
nection with a damage suit Instituted by
Barnett In the superior court, remained
In the custody of the pity marshal.
On his way along Broadway toward the
police court Moore met with more trou
ble and whole big chunks nf It. He not
only ran against snd knocked down a
conductor of a street car. but only es
caped having his machine ground to pieces
under the wheels of a Northwestern pas
senger train by a few Indies. As It wss.
the pilot of the locomotive struck the
rear wheel of the auto ajid nearly tilted
the machine over. The train, fortunately,
was only Just pulling out of the depot
and the engineer reversed the lever and
was able to bring the train to a stand
still before arty serious damage was done.
It is said that Moore dashed under the
crossing gate gs It was being lowered to
permit the train to pass. He saJd the auto
mobile got beyond his control. Conductor
George Kuhn, who wis on the roadwar
at the side nf his car. waiting to go ahead
and flag it at the crosnlng, wax struck by
the automobile and hurled to the ground.
His Injuries, while not serious, necessitated
his quitting work for the day. The auto
mobile passed over his foot, bruising It,
and his back was wrencjhed.
By the time Moore reached police head
quarters he found other trouble awaiting
him. He was served with paper In a suit
brought by J. D. Barnett for $415 damages
for the Injury to his wagon, the result of
the collision on March 21. and for the as
sault alleged to have been committed on
him by Moore. The officer of the court
also served attachment papers on Moore's
automobile and the 1100 cash bond he put
up when arrested Monday night.
" This formality had barely been gone
through, when Charles Barnett, roadmaster
of the street railway company, appeared
on the scene and filed two new Informa
tions against Moore, one on the charge of
fast and reckless driving on Broadway and
the other on the charge of assaulting Con
ductor Kuhn by knocking him down with
the automobile at the Northwestern rail rued
crossing.
With all these fresh troubles to shoulder,
Moore, after consulting with his attorney,
decided he was not prepared to go Into
court right then and there, and his hearing
on the various charges was postponed until
this morning. ,
1-a.ter In the day an Omaha firm filed
notice that It held a first mortgage of 1700
on the automobile.
Moore formerly conducted the saloon at
Broadway and Thirty-seventh street, but
lately has been engaged In the automobile
livery business between Omaha and this
city. It Is understood that J. D. Barnett
will file today an Information against
Moore charging assault and. battery.

Adjournment for Iag Taken Pen die at
Motion to Direct Committee
to Report Within Two
nays.
DRS MOINES. April 1. -Constitutional
prohibition for the slate of Iowa was
probably postponed, if not defeated perma
nently, for two years by the action of
the state senate this afternoon in voting
down a motion to take up the question.
The vote stood twenty-six against to twenty-one
for. The prohibitionists admit
their defeat and declare there Is no hope
of reviving the matter during the ten re
maining days of the session of the Iowa
legislature. Today's action followed that
of thn committee on constitutional amend
ments In unanimously tabling the resolu
tion and thua refusing to report It to
the senate.
Senator Proudfoot ef Warren county,
leader of the prohibitionists In the senate,
presented the motion for taking It from
the hands of the committee and delivered
a speech of two hours' length today upon
the issues Involved. He contended that
the opposition of constitutional prohibi
tion In basing Its claims that the people
could vote for a constitutions! conven
tion under the laws of the state at the
next annual election and thus secure con
stitutional prohibition waa merely a sub
terfuge The action of the senate, how.
ever, was due largely to the fact that
under the constitution of Iowa the nu.s.
tlon of revision of the constitution must
I) submitted to the people once In ten
years. The question of revision will be
placed upon the ballot in November. 1M1,
and It was constantly argued that the peo
ple would have eventually a rhane tn
elect delegates to the constitutional con
vention favorable to prohibition If they
decided to revise the constitution.
The agitation for a prohibitory amend
ment started with the opening of the ses
sion of the legislature and the resolution
railing for the same passed the 'house by
a lsrge majority.
During the debate In the legislature upon
the resolution representatives of the Ni.
floral Prohibition-league, the civic bodies
In the state and from the various church
organisations have been heard nn n.
of the question or the other. Prohibitionists
made the threat frequently that they would
carry the subject to the voters before the
polls In the next camoeign and Indications
point that Iowa will soon have an active
promotion issue ror the electors to decide.
Later In the day the matter was re.
opened by a motion by Clarkson. demo
crat. asKttig tne committee to make a re
port In two days on this resolution. The
senate adjourned wtlh this motion pending.
HUSBAND I.EATRS HIS FAMILY
Deserted Woman Returns With Pa
rents to Falrbary, eb.
CEDAR FALLS, la., April 1. (Special.)
-There has been much excitement during
the past few daya in this city because of
the disappearance of Clinton Munger, who
sold his barber shop 'about a week ago
and went, as ha announced, to Oelwetn
on account of the serious Illness of his
father. A few days later s letter came
to Mrs. Munger from her husband, en
closing a check for lino and saying that
he never wanted to see her again.
In the meantime her mother had come
from Fairburk. Neb., to be with her
daughter, and last night left here with
Mrs. Munger and the 1-year-old baby,
taking their household effects, and the
deserted wife will live for the present
with her parents in the Nebraska home.
The cause of thla estrangement ts as
signed to several reasons, one being that
the barber became infatuated with a pretty
girl last summer during the absence of his
family on a visit to her parents. The
whole matter Is the sensation of the city,
and much sympathy la felt for Mrs. Mun
ger. Beaten for Office After Fifty Years.
