The special committee which has had the
matter in hand recommended that Street
Commissioner Lynot of the First ward be
required to pay over to the city all money in
his hands which belong to the city, and that
the Office be declared vacant. The report
was adopted, and John Hengen was elected
to fill the vacancy. A contract for furnishing
the poor with fuel was awarded E. Worth
ingham. A commission was appointed for
the purpose of viewing the lands to be
taken for a supplementary pumping station
in North Minneapolis and determining the
value of the same. At this juncture
the Cutler claim for $55 for
work and supplies at the work
house was brought up and discussed.
AID. L. Herault felt that Mfr. Cutter still
owes the city, and the bill should not be al
lowed. All. Swenson thought the city had
a solid bill against the latter and urged that
the matter be deferred. A motion to that
end passed. The mayor was requested to
arrest all railway men violating the railroad
ordinance by allowing trains to stand Cyl
the Washington avenue crossing at
Fourth avenue north and also
to enforce the ocomotive-whistlng ordi
nance. The coTmittee on public grounds
and buildings will decorate the city hall for
the Exposition. and advertiZe for proposals
for furnishing fuel during the next year.
The committee on fire department was in
structed to decorate Cataract engine house.
Aid. Sly moved that the city pay for one
additional hours Illumination for thirty
days on Nicollet avenue, at cost of $50
per night. The motion prevailed.

THE COUNTY COMMITTEE
no Meet TO-nig ht--LocaI Political
Notes.

j. J. Ankeny, chairman of the Demo-
cratic county committee. has notified the
members of meeting to be held at the
West hotel this evening to arrange for the
calling of the county conventions. A senti-
ment, generally prevailing, favors holding
but one set of caucuses to choose delegates
for both county conventions. One conven-
ton will choose delegates to the state and
district conventions and separate one will
probably be held to nominate the county
ticket. 1t is deemed advisable by many to
choose all county delegates at one set of
caucuSes.
The district convention on Sept 90 will
have more delegates than any that has as
sembled for years. 1t will make things in
teresting.
Next Wednesday the Republican district
convention will be held at market hall.
There is little interest felt in it, as Gilfllan
is certain to be nominated without opposi-
ton. The candidate is now, with mind at
ease. roaming about among the various
watering places.
That the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress will come from Saltwater is believed
by many leading politicians.
Dave Clough has on the full panoplv of
wafgand isready to make desperate effort
to be senator from the Twenty-ninth dis
trict. Ed johnson had better try for the
same thing. 1t is toss up between them.

OLIVER Iced COMES HOME.
He Is Amazed at the Charge That Tie is Al
EmbeKIler.

He Is Amazed at the Charge That lie Is an
EmberrIer.
The sensational story started by two or our
contemporaries on Tuesday that Oliver Iced,
a young man who had hitherto borne a good
character, had skipped for the West, taking
with him the funds Of some secret societies
of which he is treasurer, is good deal spoiled
by the return of the supposed runaway. Mr..
Leeds friends give the following information
as to his whereabouts;
James II. Swain, liveryman, says MI
Iced called at his place wednesday after
noon and hired q. team to go to wedding;
and tor the first time he learned that he was
charged in the newspapers with being de-
faulter and absconder. Mr.. Swain says that
Iced has frequently hired teams from him
and paid for them. On last sunday he called
at the livery to pay balance oi - that ne
owed. Mr.. Swain was not present, but Harry
Black, who was in charge Of the livery, says
that he told him he was going West tor
few days on business, but would be
back on or before "Wednesday to attend
OF the parties, but Mr.. Black does not re-
member them. Having been absent few
hours Iced returned the team in good
order. When he hired the team to go to the
wedding he stated that he had been detained
west day longer than he expected, because
he wanted to take in the Democratic state
convention. He added that he met his friend
W. W. Crest there, and that the latter said
nothing to him about the newspaper scandal,
which ne thought he would have done had
he known IL. Mr.. Black says that Leeds
appearance when he was tolo of the alleged
aabsconding" was one of amazement
An 1STELLIGENCER reporter called upon
| Mr.. Griest, and that gentleman said he had
| met Mr.. Leeo in the railroad depot at Har-
| risburg, as that gentleman had stated to Mr..
| Black that Iced said he was coming
home. Mr.. Griest did not say anything 10
/ him about the newspaper article, fearing II
| might hurt his feelings.
| Mr.. Elwood Griest, of the Inquirer, says
| that Iced was for three or four years fore
/ man of his establishment, and q better man
i he could not have had. He was an excellent
| workman and manager, and was OF sober and
exemplary habits-Just such a man as ne
| supposed would make his mark in the world
| If he was given a chance.
| Mr.. Kaufman, Mr.. Leeds partner, said
| the latter had not called at the Economy
| printing office since his return to the city.

MORE RsCKL sss BLASTING.
A stone Crashes Through the Roof OF the
Pennsylvania Depot

A stone Crashes Through the Roof OF the
Pennsylvanis Depot
The men who have the contract for BLAST
ing out the rock on the spot where the new
hotel is to be built near the Pennsylvania
railroad, seem to care little for the lives OF
people. The papers of this city have often
called attention to the fact that the blasting at
this place was too heavy and too carelessly
done. The roofs Of great many houses in
the neighborhood have been broken by
stones falling upon them, and a num-
ber of people have escsped from be-
ing struck by large stones only by a
few inches. Many persons have VISITED
the contractor ana asked MIN to be more
careful, but instead of complying with their
wishes he appears to make the blasting
heavier. The police have also notified him,
but no attention whatever is paid to them.
few days ago gentleman was walking out
East Chestnut street on his way home.
While on the pavement al the stone wall just
opposite the new hotel site, a blast was put
on. 4 stone was hurled toward Chestnut
| street and IL struck the mans hat, knocking
| it off his head, but he escaped without any
| injury.
On "Wednesday the blasting was again very
heavy. About four o'clock a heavy charge
was sent OIL, and a stone larger than q peck
measure was carried over the hotel of Fred.
Waltz 1t struck the roof of the railroad
passenger station, through which IL crushed,
falling on the floor in front of the restaurant
| and making hole in the roof smost as large
as a wheelbarrow. Smaller stones were
| thrown all around the neighborhood and
ether roots were damaged while many per-
sons made narrow escapes.
At the time of the blasting there were
/ several hacks standing on the Chestnut
street side of the station. The horse OF
Edward McGeehan frightened and ran into
an express wagon; the hack was upset and
badly broken, while the express wagon was
generally damaged. Had the shot been fred
two hours earlier when the station was filled
with passengers as it always is early in the
afternoon, nothing have prevented terrible
accident
Tnis morning Mayor Morton called on Mr..
kendig, who is doing the blasting for the
new building. He told him that there W as
great deal OF complaint from citizens about
the careless manner In which they were
blowing the rock, and folks were afraid of
injury to themselves as well as their proper
ties. Mr.. Kendig said that the cause OF yes
terday's stone throwing was owing to the Pc
culiar kind of rock, which Is soft in some
places and hard in others He promi sed to
be more careful in the future, and said that
| they had but few more blasts to make.
| The mayor warned him against una king auy
| more blasts like that OF yesterday.

II and then gone to dinner. When the men
came back they were unable to find killian.

COLUMBIA, Aug. l9.-It will be remem-
bered by the readers of the lNrELLiGENCER
that pr. Alexander NJ. Craig met with an ac-
cident at the mouth of the Columbia bridge,
about one month ago, which laid him up
about one week. This morning the doctor
was the victim of similar experience, ana
his escape WAS even more wonderful than al
the time mentioned. Accompanied by his
oldest son, Or. Craig was driving along
North Front street. Approachiug from the
direction Of Walnut street was q team of
jesse Wolfe, In charge OF a sou of Mr.. Wolfe.
The horse took fright at passing engine:and
ran down Front street at q furious pace The
street at this point, between the railroad
tracks and the pavement, is about twelve feet
wide, and there is a heavy grade leading to
the tracks In this narrow space DR.. Craig
made an effort to turn out Seeing collision
was inevitable, both he and his son jumped
and landed without injuries moment
later and the big dray collided with the light
phaeton, knocking the front wheel of break
ing the shafts and overturning both carriage
and horse. The shock was terrific. The
| runaway passed the wreck and WAS finally
caught on Locust street. The victim OF the
accident is certainly gaining q wide expert
ence in the runaway line and II he continues

New Complaint Against Rote.

On the 10th of August the store of J. L.
Weitzel, at Wrightsville, was broken into by
thieves and robbed of large quantity OF
goods. Among the articles found in posses
sion Of Peter Rote, one of Jake Buzzard's
gang, were some rings, a mouth organ, and
pasteboard box, which Mr.. Weitzel identifies
as having been stolen from his store. Alder
man Spurrier has also some other articles
found at Conestoga Centre, near where Rote,
Buzzsrd and Geriitzki were seen. Complaint
was made against Rote for this robbery, but
it will be long time before the York county
authorities will get an opportunity Of trying
him. The cases against him in this county
win send him up for a long term OF years
