COUNCIL DECIDES TO HIRE AN EXPERT C'ouncllmrn Meet In Committee of the U'liolo unil Dlnciiii the Duration of Making HII IMoctrlcal.Survey- of the City. The city council met last evening as a committee of the whole In the office of Al- derman ¬ NlchoUon for the purpose of dis- cussing ¬ the que'tlon of hiring an expert to make an electrical survey cf the city. All the members of the council were present and the subject was talked over freely and fully. Some of them , particularly Alderman Keller , held to their same old belief that the city engineer could make a survey that would answer alt purposes , but James Mc- Cabe - and F. Baker , who were pre ent- as representatives of the Economic club , succeeded after considerable hard work , In showing them that the engineer could not make such a survey as would enable outside companies to bid on the proposed work of putting In a new plant. When the matter was finally put to a vote It was unanlmou ly decided that the firm of Stone & Webster of Chicago should be employed to make the survey at a cost of $75- .ThlH . , It Is claimed , Is the first step toward securing a reduction In gas nnd electric light tolls. Other companies stand ready to bid as soon as the lay of the land Is put before them In black nnd white. It- I * almost the universal belief that the pres- ent ¬ charges of the Council Bluffs Gas and Electrlct Light company are exorbitant , and the fact will bo cither shown or disproved by the survey. The company , as It Is , baa a decided advantage over any other company In the field , and ought to be able to make a bid that will go below all competitors.

The members of the rural fratern ty who visited Manawa Sunday had more than a bushel of fnn looking at the new and un- heard ¬ of sights , and the wonderment de- pleted ¬ on their faces furnished a vast amount of amusement to their better posted neighbors. One young man had been watch- ing ¬ the steamers going putst with a good deal of awe. One of the steamers has Its sides perforated with little holes , out of which the steam from the engines escapes. The young man turned to n young man from the city who was standing near , and aid- ."Say . , stranger , how does that there boat go ? " "Don't you see those little holes on the sides of the boat ? " said the stranger ; "when the steam goes out It strikes the water and pu lies the water behind It , so the beat slides on. You just watch It , and you'll see when the steam stops coming out the boat stons. " The young man from the country watched and found It was even so. One cf the crowd had never seen n tobog- gan ¬ slide. Approaching Manager O'Dell of the Manhattan beach , he queried casually , "How many of them people have you got employed down hero to ride down that thing ? " Ho was utterly amazed when he learned that the people were doing the thing ju t for their own amusement. There was one good old lady whoso wild- est ¬ excitement heretofore had been a Sunday school picnic or a ladles' sewing circle , and when she saw the bsach with Its crowd of merry bathers her sense of the eternal fit- ness ¬ of things sustained a severe shock- ."Well . , well , " was her horrified remark , "I had seen pictures of women out swim- ming ¬ In those short dresses , but I didn't really balleve they ever did It till now. " Augustus S'cphan and family of Omaha and Mr. and Mr . M. Wollman of this city have pitched a spacious tent apiece In the grove Just east of the Manhattan beach bath houses and tare enjoying the lake breezes. The "Q" excursionists to the num- ber ¬ of 1,000 took their lunch In the same grove on Sunday. Caught In Ci'iickcm. About all the crackers used In Council Bluffs last week were sold at C. 0.

Hall , one of the freight car thieves , and John O'Mara , also In the county jail for larceny , have not been on good terms for some llttlo time past , and each has been making threats against the other. Yester- day ¬ the embers quit smouldering and went to burning , and now Hall's face Is orna- mented ¬ by a nose several slze < larger than Itu predecessor. The fight only lasted a few minutes , and was carried on BO quietly that Jailer Charles Peterson knew nothing of it until ho was called In by one of the prisoners and told about It. Hull's no e was bleeding and he had unconditionally surrendsri'd. The two men arc now confined In separate cells. Mrs. Hall visited the ja 1 yesterday to call on her liege lord , and in talking with the jailer said , "my old man's cither crazy or ulso he needs a good sound thru hlng , and no matter which It Is , I guess the llclilni ; ho got wasn't much out of place.

But the minority cf us are accustomed to shot and shell , but have never yet flinched , because we knew no matter how distasteful It was- te us personally , the vote of the Loulsana senators was necessary to us. We knew more than that , that a fair duly on sugar was the first consideration to the treasury. Your legislation has left us bankrupt until wo have been compelled to sell bonds. We- do not Intend , when we get our bill through , to Increase the bonded debt. If wo do not get our bill through that may and probably will happen. " KIND FEELINGS FOR CLEVELAND. Then reverting to the president , he said : "Mr. President , I speak of the president of the United States with nothing but the kindest feelings. I have never In my life had any but the kindest feelings for him.- I . believe ho Is one of the most remarkable men In public life In the last fifty years In- a civilized country In the world. To elect him the first time he was a candidate , I gave my constant , unremitting labor. I stood by him when he had but few who had the moral courage toalk through the slime and filth and uphold him. I supported his nomination for the second time , though not agreeing ulth the policy of his declara- tions ¬ In the campaign of 18S7 , and I stood by my friend , the senator from Ohio ( Mr- .llrlce . ), who gave to the nomination of Mr. Cleveland his substance and his time and everything that a man can give to serve a great cause. I stood with him from the be- glnnlg - of the campaign to the end , I was not In favor of Mr. Cleveland's nomination again In 1S92 , as a matter of policy , but I , with the distinguished senator from Ohio ( Mr- .Brlce . ) and the distinguished senator from Now York ( Mr. Hill ) , who carried the battle flag In that state , and the senator from North Carolina ( Mr. Ransom ), when ho was nominated , worked In the campaign unceas- ingly. ¬ . Wo never permitted anything to stop our efforts until we placed him In this high station. We did It with an admiration for the man , with a belief he would serve his country well , but I did It also in order that we might have democratic control In this government. I have given the president a fair support and an honest support ; never subservient ; never swayed by the want of patronage , or by patronage , ready to stand with him on whatever was right. Ho has no cause of complaint against me. I am not his debtor. Let him answer for himself. But In the campaign cf 1892 , when men's cheeks wore blanched with fear , my friend , the Junior senator from New Jersey ( Mr. Smith ), active as was the senator from Ohio ( Mr. Brice ), and the distinguished senator from New York ( Mr. Hill ), whom 1 hear now opposes this bill , went to the front to lead In that campaign , and made n demo- cratic ¬ victory possible , starting the first cheer which gave hope and comfort to the country. CLEVELAND'S PLEDGES- ."Loulsana . , through Its two senators ( Gib- son ¬ and White ) wanted to know before we entered upon the campaign with no threat , with no Inquiry except that which an honor- able ¬ man had a right to make what the policy of the party was to be under the ap- parently ¬ free trade resolutions adopted at- Chicago. . After a great deal of talk and most careful consideration that candidate of our party told them , as he told the public through his letter , that the democratic party was not to destroy Industries , that It should place a fair duty upon dutiable articles , a revenue duty that the bill which had met his approval was the Mills bill , and on the line of the Mills bill the , democratic party would act. The Junior" senator from New Jersey ( Mr. Smith ) , Mr. Brlce and myself did that , giving our tlmetind our money and everything that man can give for the success of the party. We conferred with all those distinguished gentlemen. Wo were not at the conference with the candidate , but had It from both sides what occurred. They wanted to know If the democratic or- ganization ¬ , of wtilch we were a part , put the same construction upon It and would be- In favor of that line of procedure hereafter. They said to us frankly , 'Wo want to tell our people the truth. We do not want to press you to give a single fraction of a cent to Louisiana , but we only want to know the truth. At that solemn conclave we all said : 'Yes , it Is a dutiable article. It Is to bo and must be the cornerstone by which we will overthrow McKlnleylsm. You shall have It. ' "In all my public career , no man has ever charged me with perfidy. No soul can say I ever made a promise about public or pri- vate ¬ matters that I did not carry out if I had the power to do it. These two senators and myself , carrying out the pledge of our party , whose candidate was endorsed by- us , have stood here and been gibbeted as men who are In a sugar trust. I was true to those to whom I am Indebted. No man here would believe such a thing. UNWRITTEN CONGRESSIONAL LAW- ."The . conferees In this matter on the part of the senate have a great duty to perform. There are almost irreconclllablo But I want them to say to the conferees on the other side , 'Now , of all times , gentle- men ¬ , the law must be observed. Harmony can only be had by standing by the letter of the law. You who make laws with us. must not violate them. There Is In this case the written and the unwritten law , to which there Is no exception , and that Is that when house proposes to change an exist- ing ¬ statute and the qthcr refuses to go so far , the house making the radical demand shall give way. That Is the law ; that Is the custom. Whenever It Is Insisted upon there Is no escape from It , If you Intend to have legislation.- "You . can say , Mr. Chairman ( addressing Chairman Vcorhees ) that while there has been great talk about people coming out Into the open , senator after senator has an- nounced ¬ what he Is bound to dl as a matter of conscience If that radical change Is de- manded. ¬ . I do not mean you shall not have a free and fair conference. I would exclude exerythtng except ycur own thoughts. The country can say to this body , 'Now that we have only one majority among the democrats , Now York , New Jersey , Louisiana and Mary- land ¬ step out to the front and tell the public frankly what ought to have been told only In private , that within the borders of the states I have named , while they number five or six , there Is more manufacturing Indus- try ¬ than In all the states which demand this radical change. Say to them that at this time , when the whole world Is ablase with revolution In Industrial affairs and want and distress are felt , these senators have said to you they cannot go further , they prefer to make a inlstake for high rates rather than to hnvoi.tltHH too low.- Mr. . . President , with all our rules this bill stands , as I think , Initn'e shape possible to get It to represent ouV'Wws. I appeal to my colleagues on this feftfe" to stand together with the perfect knowledge that If they do not , the bill Is defend ,, ; If my good friend from New York ( Mr. Hill ), or the senator from Wisconsin ( Mr. iVllas ), succeeds , and any democrat may tucqned by uniting with them and any others In amending the bill , you have the declarstldn of enough senators to know you defeat it , ' "What Is our duty ? What did wo agree to do , when we plifced In your hands , Mr. Chairman , and you'Jdemocrats ' , the power to say what wo ought Jo'do ; after a careful and unfettered conference ? No such confidence on the part of all our party has ever been given to men asvu gave to you. Let this bill go to a conference on tlicp art of the two houses. These thunder clowds will roll- away , these Hashes ot lightning , these exhi- bitions ¬ of temper , all must clear the atmos- phere ¬ and enable the conferees to give now hope and new life to the American people. " ( Applause In the galleries. ) SENATOR WHITE STAND PAT. Senator White followed Mr. Gorman. Ho said the question of the merits of the tariff was Infinitely superior to the qucitlon of taste aa to the president's letter read In the house. He reviewed the dlfllcultles In fram- ing ¬ the bill. Free coal and free Iron would bo a great boom to California. The state pays almost the entire coal tax and yet this bill was cheerfully accepted because U wag the best that could be had. There was noth- ing ¬ for the senate to do but to vote for the senator from Dckwaro (Gray ) to Insist upon the senate bill. If the Vitas resolution wns Adopted , It would open the door to n flood of amendments , and wuld precipitate another long and acrimonious contest over the tariff.- If . the bill was amended to Include free Iron nnd free coal , the senator from New York ( Hill ) knew the bill would bo Imperilled ami- ho would probably shed no tears at Its peril- ."How . will It bo 'Imperiled ? " asked Mr.- Hill. . . "What single senator's vole would bo lost for an amendment for free coal and free Iron ? " Mr. White said HIM himself would vote against thn bill , as the Income tax Is In It- .As . Mr. White closed , thcp residing officer announced the next order of business was the consideration of the resolution of the senator from New York ( Hill ) to recede from the senate's posltloln on coal and Iron.- Mr. . . Cockrcll of Missouri Interposed with a motion that the senate proceed to the con- sideration ¬ of executive business. To the sur- prise ¬ of the crowds In the galleries , as well as to some of the senators , the motion pre- vailed ¬ , the galleries were cleared and the stirring proceedings of the day were sum- marily ¬ brought to a close- .At . 3:30 : the senate adjourned until tomor- row ¬ at 1 o'clock.- HiiiiKn . Could Nut Keep i Quorum. WASHINGTON July 23. The house found Itself without a quorum today. The committee on rules reported a resolution to direct the sergennt-at-arms to bring ab- sentees ¬ to the bar of the house. Mr. Reed desired an adjournment to listen to the elo- quence ¬ of the senate , and was suggesting , "Our friends still seem to be answering the Indictment and are pleading complicity on the part of the grand Jury , " when the speaker sharply rapped him down. Mr. Reed thereupon demanded the yeas and nays on the rule. A failure lo find a quorum resulted and on motion of Mr. Bynum the house ad- journed ¬ at 1:3- 0.fouu : . ciiiuntr.x CHRSIATKH- .l.nrlifil .

COUNCIL DECIDES TO HIRE AN EXPERT

C'ouncllmrn Meet In Committee of theU'liolo unil Dlnciiii the Duration of

Making HII IMoctrlcal.Survey-of the City.

The city council met last evening as acommittee of the whole In the office of Al-

derman¬

NlchoUon for the purpose of dis-

cussing¬

the que'tlon of hiring an expertto make an electrical survey cf the city.All the members of the council were presentand the subject was talked over freely andfully. Some of them , particularly AldermanKeller , held to their same old belief that thecity engineer could make a survey thatwould answer alt purposes , but James Mc-

Cabe-

and F. Baker , who were pre ent-as representatives of the Economic club ,

succeeded after considerable hard work , Inshowing them that the engineer could notmake such a survey as would enable outsidecompanies to bid on the proposed work ofputting In a new plant. When the matterwas finally put to a vote It was unanlmou lydecided that the firm of Stone & Websterof Chicago should be employed to make thesurvey at a cost of $75-

.ThlH.

, It Is claimed , Is the first steptoward securing a reduction In gas nndelectric light tolls. Other companies standready to bid as soon as the lay of the landIs put before them In black nnd white. It-II * almost the universal belief that the pres-ent

¬

charges of the Council Bluffs Gas andElectrlct Light company are exorbitant , andthe fact will bo cither shown or disprovedby the survey. The company , as It Is , baa adecided advantage over any other companyIn the field , and ought to be able to makea bid that will go below all competitors.

ItlppU'H.The members of the rural fratern ty who

visited Manawa Sunday had more than abushel of fnn looking at the new and un-

heard¬

of sights , and the wonderment de-

pleted¬

on their faces furnished a vastamount of amusement to their better postedneighbors. One young man had been watch-ing

¬

the steamers going putst with a good dealof awe. One of the steamers has Its sidesperforated with little holes , out of whichthe steam from the engines escapes. Theyoung man turned to n young man fromthe city who was standing near, and aid-."Say

., stranger , how does that there boat

go ? ""Don't you see those little holes on the

sides of the boat ?" said the stranger ; "whenthe steam goes out It strikes the water andpu lies the water behind It , so the beatslides on. You just watch It , and you'llsee when the steam stops coming out theboat stons. "

The young man from the country watchedand found It was even so.

One cf the crowd had never seen n tobog-gan

¬

slide. Approaching Manager O'Dell ofthe Manhattan beach , he queried casually ,

"How many of them people have you gotemployed down hero to ride down thatthing ? " Ho was utterly amazed whenhe learned that the people were doing thething ju t for their own amusement.

There was one good old lady whoso wild-est

¬

excitement heretofore had been a Sundayschool picnic or a ladles' sewing circle , andwhen she saw the bsach with Its crowd ofmerry bathers her sense of the eternal fit-

ness¬

of things sustained a severe shock-."Well

, well , " was her horrified remark ,

"I had seen pictures of women out swim-ming

¬

In those short dresses , but I didn'treally balleve they ever did It till now. "

KIND FEELINGS FOR CLEVELAND.Then reverting to the president , he said :

"Mr. President , I speak of the president ofthe United States with nothing but thekindest feelings. I have never In my lifehad any but the kindest feelings for him.-I

.

believe ho Is one of the most remarkablemen In public life In the last fifty years In-

a civilized country In the world. To electhim the first time he was a candidate , Igave my constant , unremitting labor. Istood by him when he had but few whohad the moral courage toalk through theslime and filth and uphold him. I supportedhis nomination for the second time , thoughnot agreeing ulth the policy of his declara-tions

¬

In the campaign of 18S7 , and I stoodby my friend , the senator from Ohio ( Mr-.llrlce

.) , who gave to the nomination of Mr.

Cleveland his substance and his time andeverything that a man can give to serve agreat cause. I stood with him from the be-

glnnlg-

of the campaign to the end , I was notIn favor of Mr. Cleveland's nomination againIn 1S92 , as a matter of policy , but I , withthe distinguished senator from Ohio ( Mr-.Brlce

.

) and the distinguished senator fromNow York ( Mr. Hill ) , who carried the battleflag In that state , and the senator fromNorth Carolina (Mr. Ransom ) , when ho wasnominated , worked In the campaign unceas-ingly.

¬

. Wo never permitted anything tostop our efforts until we placed him In thishigh station. We did It with an admirationfor the man , with a belief he would serve hiscountry well , but I did It also in order thatwe might have democratic control In thisgovernment. I have given the president afair support and an honest support ; neversubservient ; never swayed by the want ofpatronage , or by patronage , ready to standwith him on whatever was right. Ho hasno cause of complaint against me. I am nothis debtor. Let him answer for himself.But In the campaign cf 1892 , when men'scheeks wore blanched with fear , my friend ,

the Junior senator from New Jersey (Mr.Smith ) , active as was the senator fromOhio (Mr. Brice ) , and the distinguishedsenator from New York ( Mr. Hill ) , whom 1

hear now opposes this bill , went to the frontto lead In that campaign , and made n demo-cratic

¬

victory possible , starting the firstcheer which gave hope and comfort to thecountry.

CLEVELAND'S PLEDGES-

."Loulsana.

, through Its two senators ( Gib-

son¬

and White ) wanted to know before weentered upon the campaign with no threat ,

with no Inquiry except that which an honor-able

¬

man had a right to make what thepolicy of the party was to be under the ap-

parently¬

free trade resolutions adopted at-

Chicago. . After a great deal of talk andmost careful consideration that candidate ofour party told them , as he told the publicthrough his letter , that the democratic partywas not to destroy Industries , that It shouldplace a fair duty upon dutiable articles , arevenue duty that the bill which had methis approval was the Mills bill , and on theline of the Mills bill the, democratic partywould act. The Junior" senator from NewJersey ( Mr. Smith ) , Mr. Brlce and myselfdid that , giving our tlmetind our moneyand everything that man can give for thesuccess of the party. We conferred withall those distinguished gentlemen. Wo werenot at the conference with the candidate ,

but had It from both sides what occurred.They wanted to know If the democratic or-

ganization¬

, of wtilch we were a part , putthe same construction upon It and would be-

In favor of that line of procedure hereafter.They said to us frankly , 'Wo want to tell ourpeople the truth. We do not want to pressyou to give a single fraction of a cent toLouisiana , but we only want to know thetruth. At that solemn conclave we all said :

'Yes , it Is a dutiable article. It Is to bo andmust be the cornerstone by which we willoverthrow McKlnleylsm. You shall haveIt. '

"In all my public career , no man has evercharged me with perfidy. No soul can sayI ever made a promise about public or pri-vate

¬

matters that I did not carry out if Ihad the power to do it. These two senatorsand myself , carrying out the pledge of ourparty , whose candidate was endorsed by-us , have stood here and been gibbeted asmen who are In a sugar trust. I was trueto those to whom I am Indebted. No manhere would believe such a thing.

UNWRITTEN CONGRESSIONAL LAW-."The

.

conferees In this matter on the partof the senate have a great duty to perform.There are almost irreconclllabloBut I want them to say to the conferees onthe other side , 'Now , of all times , gentle-men

¬

, the law must be observed. Harmonycan only be had by standing by the letterof the law. You who make laws with us.must not violate them. There Is In thiscase the written and the unwritten law , towhich there Is no exception , and that Isthat when house proposes to change an exist-ing

¬

statute and the qthcr refuses to go sofar , the house making the radical demandshall give way. That Is the law ; that Is thecustom. Whenever It Is Insisted uponthere Is no escape from It , If you Intendto have legislation.-

"You.

can say , Mr. Chairman (addressingChairman Vcorhees ) that while there hasbeen great talk about people coming outInto the open , senator after senator has an-nounced

¬

what he Is bound to dl as a matterof conscience If that radical change Is de-

manded.¬

. I do not mean you shall not havea free and fair conference. I would excludeexerythtng except ycur own thoughts. Thecountry can say to this body , 'Now that wehave only one majority among the democrats ,

Now York , New Jersey , Louisiana and Mary-land

¬

step out to the front and tell the publicfrankly what ought to have been told onlyIn private , that within the borders of thestates I have named , while they number fiveor six , there Is more manufacturing Indus-try

¬

than In all the states which demand thisradical change. Say to them that at thistime , when the whole world Is ablase withrevolution In Industrial affairs and wantand distress are felt , these senators havesaid to you they cannot go further , theyprefer to make a inlstake for high ratesrather than to hnvoi.tltHH too low.-

Mr..

. President , with all our rules this billstands , as I think , Initn'e shape possible toget It to represent ouV'Wws. I appeal to mycolleagues on this feftfe" to stand togetherwith the perfect knowledge that If they donot , the bill Is defend , , ; If my good friendfrom New York ( Mr. Hill ) , or the senatorfrom Wisconsin ( Mr. iVllas ) , succeeds , andany democrat may tucqned by uniting withthem and any others In amending the bill ,

you have the declarstldn of enough senatorsto know you defeat it ,'

"What Is our duty ? What did wo agreeto do , when we plifced In your hands , Mr.Chairman , and you'Jdemocrats' , the power tosay what wo ought Jo'do ; after a careful andunfettered conference ? No such confidenceon the part of all our party has ever beengiven to men asvu gave to you. Let thisbill go to a conference on tlicp art of thetwo houses. These thunder clowds will roll-away , these Hashes ot lightning , these exhi-bitions

¬

of temper , all must clear the atmos-phere

¬

and enable the conferees to give nowhope and new life to the American people. "( Applause In the galleries. )

SENATOR WHITE STAND PAT.Senator White followed Mr. Gorman. Ho

said the question of the merits of the tariffwas Infinitely superior to the qucitlon oftaste aa to the president's letter read In thehouse. He reviewed the dlfllcultles In fram-ing

¬

the bill. Free coal and free Iron wouldbo a great boom to California. The statepays almost the entire coal tax and yet thisbill was cheerfully accepted because U wagthe best that could be had. There was noth-ing

¬

for the senate to do but to vote for thesenator from Dckwaro (Gray ) to Insist upon

the senate bill. If the Vitas resolution wnsAdopted , It would open the door to n flood ofamendments , and wuld precipitate anotherlong and acrimonious contest over the tariff.-If

.the bill was amended to Include free Iron

nnd free coal , the senator from New York( Hill ) knew the bill would bo Imperilled ami-ho would probably shed no tears at Its peril-

."How.

will It bo 'Imperiled ? " asked Mr.-

Hill..

. "What single senator's vole would bolost for an amendment for free coal andfree Iron ? "

Mr. White said HIM himself would voteagainst thn bill , as the Income tax Is In It-

.As.

Mr. White closed , thcp residing officerannounced the next order of business wasthe consideration of the resolution of thesenator from New York ( Hill ) to recedefrom the senate's posltloln on coal and Iron.-

Mr..

. Cockrcll of Missouri Interposed with amotion that the senate proceed to the con-

sideration¬

of executive business. To the sur-prise

¬

of the crowds In the galleries , as wellas to some of the senators , the motion pre-

vailed¬

, the galleries were cleared and thestirring proceedings of the day were sum-marily
