THE SAME OLD BILL
For Defending the Police Com
missiOn-COuncil Committees.

For Defending the POllce COIH-
missiOn-COuncil Committees.
The council committee on claims met
yesterday and audited large number
OF bills. Among the bills sent in was
the old one of Robinson & Baker for
s325.05 for defending the police COM
mission in the noted Quinlan suit. The
committee refused to allow the bill on
the ground that the police commission
had no right to employ outside counsel
when the city attorney was paid to do
that kind of work.
The council committee on sewers held
well-attended meeting yesterday
afternoon and decided to recommend to
the council the annulling OF sixteen
blocks of sewer in various portions OF
the city, principally the northeast sec
ton. The proper officers were author
lied to execute a contract with Z. u.
Swanson for 100000 sewer brick at
81 per 1000, to be delivered by June l,
1889.
At the meeting of the council commit
tee on water works yesterday morning
Aid. Dwyer sent in request to the
effect that the city supply the water
neSSary TO convert the base ball park
into an ice rink. The request was
granted by unanimous vote. Super
visor Walsh presented his estimate OF
material required for 1889. 1t embraced
4,62S tons Of iron pipe, 113 tons of lead,
1s4 tons of special castings, 1913 fire n.y.
drants and 165 valves. The estimate
was accepted, and the city engineer was
directed to advertise for bids for furnish
ing the same. Bills to the amount OF
SO. $40 were allowed,

MATTERS OF MONOPOLY.
The Conduit Committee Does
Business in the Dark.


There was large attendance at the
joint meeting of the council committees
on conduit and ordinance at the city
hall yesterday afternoon. Aid. Cooley
was made chairman. j. E. Byers, of
the Edison Electric Light and Power
company, and Messrs. McKinstrey and
Weyman, of the telephone company,
appeared before the committee and
explained their position at some length.
Mr.. ByerS, of the Edison company. said
he could not see any justice in making
all the companies use the DorSett con-
duit. Each company doing business in
the city, he held, should have the right
to lay its own conduitS. The Edison
conduit would not occupy a space any
larger than mans arm, and would
cause no trouble at all. MeSSrs. McKin-
stry and Weyman made decided
protest against laying the tele-
phone wires in the Dorsett
conduit, they holding that the wires
would not work well when near electric
wires. Mr.. Dorsett. of the Dorsett Con-
duit company, stated that his conduit
was all right for any and every kind OF
wires. The wires would not interfere
with each other in any way, and, all in
all, the conduit was good thing. After
a long and tiresome discussion, Aid.
Gibson moved that the committee rec
ommend to the council that an ordinance
be passed compelling all companies who
put their wires underground to put
them in the DorSett conduit. Aid.
Cloutier wanted an executive session,
and just before it was decided to hold
one Mr.. McKinstry, of the telephone,
l,ro:,mhf 1nyU11 tho hnlcn NV VIZ I'M
Gentlemen, Minneapolis has her street
car monopoly, her gas monopoly, her
telephone monopoly, and now you pro-
propose to have conduit monopoly.
Well, all have to say is thatit is good
thing.''
The committee remained in executive
session for au hour, and then announced
that it had acted OH the telephone COM
pany's ordinance, but had laid the Edi-
son ordinance over for further inVesti
cation,

SETTING THE CASES.
A Large and Well Assorted Budget

of Work.
Yesterday was the first day of the
December term of court and the large
court room was filled with lawyers who
were engaged with the four judges in
setting for trial the cases on the civil
calendar. The forty-one personal prop
erty tax cases were set for trial Dec. 26,
and the seventeen real estate tax cases,
all but one of which are against the
Manitoba Railway company were set
for Dec. 81. Beside the tax cases
there are 5S4 civil cases on the
calendar, and of this number Sa3
were continued over from last term.
The forty-three criminal cases con-
tinued over from last term. which make
up the criminal calendar, will be set for
trial next Friday. Of these cases, sew
teen are violation of the liquor laws,
eleven for selling adulterated milk,
three for larceny, three for receiving
stolen property, four for assault and
one each for Sabbath breaking, selling
property received for storage, obtaining
signature to deed by false pretenseS,
maintaining public nuisance and
perjury. The grand jury will turn in
new grist of criminal cases to swell the
coming calendar. and there will be
full winters work for the attorneys.
Court hours were made from 10 until
1890. and until 5, which gives salts
faction to the ATTORNEYS,

THE GRAND lNQuISITl0N.
Crime Hunters Of the County Get to
Work.
LocHREN SPURS THEM ON.
The New Term Opens Briskly, With
ANY Quantity Of Bust
ness On.

The grand jury yesterday settled
down to its work of ferreting out the
authors of crime. Judge Lochren pre-
sided over the criminal court and delly-
cred sermon to the jury in the follow
ing language:
The imperfection OF human nature is such
that vice and crime have always existed In
all communities, bringing misery upon those
who are weak Or wicked enough to be guilty
OF ofenses and danger to the persons ana
property of the law-abiding. TO repress crime
by wholesome punishment, and by example
to restrain others, criminal laws were made,
and in order that the laws shall ~be et1clent
It is necessary that criminal laws s5e
otherwise the laws become inetfi-
cient and fall into contempt. In our
country, the people have wisely Kept not
only the power of making laws but the ad-
minlstration OF them in their own hands.
Grand juries are chosen from among the cltl-
zens, and no one can be placed on trial for
any serious offense except upon the accnsa-
ton of the grand jury, and the fact OF MS
guilt or innocence must be determined by
petit jury. Experience has taught that tins
and always secure in their persons and
property who have wholly resigned the
administration of their laws into the hands
of new officials That these institutions may
pc preserved Ill luelr CitiLCiiS
should, when called upon, devote their time
and best energy to the discharge of their du-
ties. In most offenses the parties injured may
be relied upon to bring the matter to the at
tention of the grand jury. There are, now
ever, offenses where the persons most IN,
jured will keep silent to avoid the shame and
disgrace OF participation and cannot be re-
lied upon to make complaint. refer par
ticularly to houses OF i'll fame and gambling
houses, where the young and unthinklng are
brought into contact with vice and with all
classes of criminals who make such dens
their resort. The community has deep in.
terest in the suppression and eradication OF
these haunts of vice and nurseries of crime,
and in respect to them it would be well for
the grand jury to institute inquiries.
The jury retired, with George II.
Christian as foreman, and proceeded to
tackle the Lamont abduction case.
Adele Smith, the mother Of the child
which Nine. Lamont is accused OF alb
Quoting, was present. 1t is said the
missing kid had been discovered and
will be produced at the trial. The case
OF Eric Dalgren, who fired at Jallor
Younquist under such mysterious cir
cumstances, was next investigated. and
the Bassett-Clark horse stealing case
came next. License Inspector Ray then
spent considerable time in the jury
room, and the presumption is strong
that liquor cases are under consldera-
ton.

PEACE AT LAST
For the Society for Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals.

Nine members of the Society for Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals were
present at the special meeting held yes
terday at the board of trade rooms, and
as many more who have been Identified
with the new society. 1t seemed to be
the general idea that the two societies
should be amalgamated, and a number
OF those present joined the old society.
DR.. Fishblatt was present, and attempt
ed to stir up the usual rumpus by lnsln-
uating, when motion was made to APP
point committee to make nominations
for officers, that all members OF the So
ciety had not been duly notified. The
bellicose Mr.. Humphreys resented this
as an insult-an insult with capital 1
and the accent on the suit. A. j. Con-
dit, who presided, poured oil upon the
troubled waters, and finally, after
great deal of talking, the motion was
carried, and J. W. Beard, Fl. &. Sander
son, and E. Keyser were appointed. to
report at meeting to be held Dec. II.
