Council undoing the action of previous
Council, and now 1t was proposed to do the
same thing by withholding promised loans
from three companies.
Mr.. Pickles said it was illegal for Council
to loan money to fire companies.
Mr.. Pickles said he presumed the amend
ment to the appropriation ordinance would
pass and therefore he would like to
fix the tax rate, In order to facilitate
matters. He thereupon called up the report
of the Finance Committee fixing the tax
rate, and moved to reduce the rate for city
purposes from $l.25 to $1.10 on the 500,
which would make the total rate $3.50 in
stead of $l.65 as at first proposed.
Mr.. Taylor was of the opinion that Coun-
ell could not anticipate the passage of an
ordinance, and that If the tax rate was
fixed to night 1t would have to be based
upou the appropriations as they now stand.
President Conrad coincided with Mr.. Tay-
lor's view.
Mr.. Baugh made plea In favor of keep
ing Councils pledge to loan money to the
fire companies. He said the Water Witch
company was in particular need OF help.
Mr.. Farrell also urged Council to loan
the money 10 the FIRE companies, - had
been promised. The flreme1 should be pro-
tected, as their work is for the benefit OF the
public. Upon the strength of pledges made
before the election the companies depended
implicitly upon these loans and would be
severely Strengthened if they were now dis
appointed. He was of the opinion that
other appropriations could be cut down
sufficiently to permit of the loans being
made. .IE
Mr.. Pickels said he was willing to do all
for the firemen that the law allowed, but he
could not consent to do what the law strictly
prohibited. He also was positive the ap-
preparations could not be safely pared down
any further.
Mr. Pickles amendment to the report re-
ducing the city rate from $1.25 TO $1.10 was
adopted, and also an amendment reducing
the amount of revenue to be raised by taxa
ton for city purposes from S307, 1893 to
$2S5, ,5S2, the amount realized from q rate
of $1.10.
Further consideration of the report was
then deferred.
Mr.. Garrett then offered an ordinance es-
tablishing the grade of Fourteenth street, in
the Ninth ward. Read twice.
He also presented an ordinance amending
the Building Inspector ordinance, SO as to
allow appeals from the Inspector to be re-
ferred TO committee of Council.
Council elected Board OF Port Wardens,
as follows; Alexander Kelley, five years;
Job Il. jackson, four years; Henry Menden-
hall, three years; Enoch Moore, Jr., two
years; James Bradford, one year.
Mr.. Speakman offered resolution in
structing the Committee on Public Build
ings to inquire into the expediency of selling
the sand LOT.
A deed conveying to the city the beds of
Scott, Union, Lincoln, DUPONT, Chestnut
and Elm streets, was received aud referred.
Mr.. Pickels presented an ordinance ex-
tending the time of the Water Registrar. 1t
provides that he shall be elected on the last
meeting night in June, 1883, for term OF
three years. The term at present is one
year.
Adjourned.
During the evening orders were directed

TERROR IN CHICAGO.
Wild Steers Raging Through the Streets
Woman and Child Killed,


CHICAGO, June 21.-One hundred and
ten Id Texan steers broke from the driv-
ing corral last evening and created the
greatest stampede and excitement known in
the stock yard region for many years.
After concerted rush for two blocks the
herd broke and scattered in all directions.
A lot of sixty took possession of Wentworth
avenue and cleared the street of everything
living or movable. At this point George
Sweeny, genuine Texan cowboy, in charge
OF the herd, put In an appearance, mounted
on herder mustang and armed with q
Winchester rife.
Sweeny dashed after the Wentworth
avenue section and killed nine of the animals
in rapid succession. He followed another
section down Thirtieth street, killing a.,
and when he reached South Park avenue
he put an end to those remaining there
Sweeny took another turn, taking sort of
skirmish detour, followed by hundreds of
men and boys, armed with weapons of every
conceivable sort, ranging from Bridgeport
saud bag and billy to an old army revolver,
and the stag hunt was fully and fairly In
augurated.
The neighborhood of Fourteenth stree
and Stewart avenue was wild with excite
ment. Five maddened animals bore down
on Mrs. Mary Mulholland, OF 420 Rebecca
street, and trampled her to death. The
body was removed to the home of q married
daughter on Fourteenth street. Another
dash of the steers car rieI them to Maggie
Carney, aged 10 years, on her way home
from Stewart avenue store with q pail of
milk and loaf of bread In her hands. The
child stopped tranEfxed with terror, and the
steers trampled on her, inflicting injuries
which caused her death this mOrning. One
Of the animals was slain by street car
driver, but the others escaped. At the cor
ner OF Blue Island and Centre avenues
steer weighing 200 pounds was killed by
laborer with crowbar.
Scarcely had the beast fallen when re-
markable scene ensued. Twenty or thirty
men and women crowded around and began
to fight for the carcass 1t was skinned in
patches, and while the body was yet quiver-
ing the meat was cut off in hunks and the
chunks were carried off amid triumphant
shouts and laughter. In less than fifteen
minutes after the crowbar struck the ami
NAL nothing but the ski Teton and the en-
trails remained. An old woman returned
and secured the heart ard liver. The sight
was disgusting and the hungry people were
repulsive in their blood-begrimed faces and
clothing. Of the Ito steers in the herd when
1t broke 43 were killed or lost and the re-
mainder secured after night of hunt
ing by the stock-yard men. One ingenious
fellow was determined to catch his game
alive and actually succeeded In securing
steer with rope aud tying 1t fast to the
dock at Mason street in the South Fork.
