committed, identified them, aud their conviction
is beyond III question. Dunn is an old offender,
who has ssrved seven yenIs' term in tho Peni-
tcntiary, from which he WAS released
few months ago. He is the identical
criminal who was shot BY Roger Plant
shout the year 1864. at the corner OF South
Water and Wells streets, under the following cir
cumstances Dunn had committed felony,
and, upon a preliminary examination, been
released on bail, with Plant as security. Gus-
picious actions on the part OF Dunn induced his
bondsnau to deliver him to the authorities,
and it was when engaged in securing him that,
to prevent his escaps, be shot the felon. Dunn
WAS subsequently tried and convicted. He will
aleo be remembered Us tho person who had man
ufactu1ed key to the safe in Smiths ganbling-
house, about two months ego, being in Smiths
employ, and the discovery OF it in his peg
session prevented tho robbery Of $4,000
which was in the safe at that time. He is said to
DO an accomplished scholar, . thorough nayi--
gator, being able to sail ship with tho skill Of
an old salt, and withal one Of the most expert
- ''cracksmen' II in tile country. His partner
"Billy" Herman il known as 4 Bneak-thief, aud
was probably the tool OF his superior instructor
in the numerous robberies committed in the city
tho past three months, aud in which it is stated
Dul,i1 hss been the prime mover.
Officers Slayton and Gallagher are entitled to
the thanks OF the community for ridding Chica-
20 OF such IN incubus, and they are determined
to spare no pains to conclude tho drama with
their conviction.

At the lett is another rat who is just arriving
upon the scene at full gallop, md manifests his
alarm and astonishment at the sudden appari-
tion before him. At the right is an older

up his mind there is DO danger to be appTehend-
ed and is studying the three puppies in philo-
sophie vein. Tho picture is not only remarkable
for the fidelity With which the animals drawn,

Of tho arts: and the peculiarly human attributes
with Which he has invested his quadrupedsl sit
terB. Like all OF his pictures it is u charming
story On cauvas-a picture which tells the story
at glance. All Of 3lr. Boards friends and ad-
mlrers in this city, ns well as art aduirers in

CLARK STREET RAILROAD TRACKS.
The Council Committee On Streets md Alley
Of tho South Division, comprising Mossrs
Bchu1itz, Stone, Coey, Foley, and Dixon, mel
yesterday afternoon at o'clock to consider The
petition Of property-owners on Clark street
that the Lake Shore {s Michigan Southern Rail
way Company, and the Chicago, Rock Island L
Pacific Railroad Company be compelled to use
horses md not eteam as motive power on
Clark street. This is subject thai has been
prominently before the public for years, and to
the residents and property~owners on that street
It has boen source of great grievance.
The meeting began yesterday ty Judge Drury' g
moving, on behalf OF the railroads, for a contin-
uance, on tho ground that their solicitor Was i'll
and unable to be present. Tho motion for con-
tinuance vas opposed strenuously By MessrB.
Tobin, Jenas and Harrison, property-ownera on
Clark street, who alleged that it Was trick on
the part Of the Uouopolists to stavo OF pro-
cecdingt. Aid. Schrnitz, Chairman of the Com
mittee, stated tho decision OF the Committee to
be, that the property-owne1s should state their
grievances, reserving to tho railroad companies
tho right to make final statement.
k{Mr. Tuley, Corporation Counsel under the last
administration, gave a history Of the original
franchise granted the Rock Island Road, aud tho
subsequent occupancy OF Clark street By the
Lake Shore Road, then the Michigan Southern,
and CLOSED bis remarks With citing the law
specially applicable to tho caso in question.
Judge Drury stated his side Of the question, con-
tending that tho Council could not legfslate
specially against oCe road, but that they must
cover ali railroads in any ordinance that they
might enact. But, on the supposition that they
might compel the railroads to use horsepower
on Clark street, he showed that it would be I'M
practicable, aud cited several instances where
the experiment had been tried and found not to
work.
Ar. Tu1ev replied. claining that the Council
could coapel the railroads On Clark street to
Use horsepower, and instanced, as prece-
dent, similar case in Buffalo, where tho city
did compel railroad to dispense with steam
power within the city limits, and they were mp
held by tie upper courts. Mr. Tuloy then
closed his remarks by drawing picture Of rail-
road oppression that called forth the applause
of his hearers.
Judge Drury introduced as evidence letter
from Albert Keep, to the effect that ho bought
the right Of way on Clark street for the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern Railway. and not
for the Rock Island Company. nud also map,
which showed thzt il tho railroad we're COM
pelled to use horsepower it could not extend it's
track to the various elevators that 1t now
reaches.
Tho Committee, Of course, reserve their de-
ciBion till they hare received the statement OF
The solicitor OF the railroad, and will undoubted-
" report to the Council week from tomorrow
evening.
