Ed Stevens Withdraws His Pre-
vious Bill and Gives Notice of
Suit at Law.
Last night Col. Ed Stevens communi-
Gated to the city council that he had
withdrawn his previous proposition to
settle his claim for compiling the city
charter, ordinances, ETC., and gave no
tice that he should, if the bill was not
settled before the next session of
the district court, bring action
to recover the sum of 81, 924 for the work
in question. The proposition evidently
was not pleasantly received, but the al
dermen concluded TO make the best of
the predicament by fighting the case.
Aid. L'Herault moved to lay the COM
munication on the table, while Aid. Ed
johnson wanted it referred to the city
attorney. However, L'Herault's motion
prevailed.
Then Aid. Dwyer moved that the as
sistant city attorney be directed to de-
fend the suit against the city in the
courts, Offering as an excuse for this
action that it would be rather inconsist
ent for the city attorney to appear for
the city after he had 80. K'd'' the
Stevens claim.
Aid. Cooley seconded the motion.
Aid. Johnson retorted to Aid. Dwyer
that the motion was a reflection upon
the city attorney. After a short discus
ried.
Upon the recommendation of the
committee on printing, however, the
bill of Harrison Il Smith for printing the
charter and ordinances, $4,000, was or

NO CHARTER AUTHORITY.
The Council Can Not Make an Ap.
DrOpriatiOn for Illumin al ton.

preparation Tor illumination.
The city attorney, to whom had been
referred the proposition to illuminate
Nicollet avenue during the exposition.
last night submitted an opinion to the
council which tended to discourage the
enthusiasts who favor the project. He
stated that there was no provision in the
charter authorizing an appropriation to
meet the expense from the city treas
ury. He further explained that the APP
preparation for street lighting had been
entirely exhausted. and therefore rec
commended that the council refuse to
undertake the illumination. The re-
port was placed. on file. However, be-
fore an adjournment was taken, Aid.
Johnson moved that NicOllet avenue
be Illuminated during the expo
sition the present season upon
the plan prosecuted last year,
the city pledging its faith to endeavor
to secure legislative authority to pay the
expense not to exceed $4,000, which is
81, 400 less than was expended last year.
The motion was finally increased to
$1,000 by an amendment, when Aid.
Mills asked privilege to so amend the
same that the city secure authority to
appropriate $1,000 for improving Crystal
Lake avenue. This was offered evil
IDENTITY as a compromise, and it caught
the illumination advocates. AS so
amended the motion prevailed.

Court Martial.

A court martial, president, Capt Bennett,
has convened at Fort Russell for the pur-
pose of trying Sergt. Mullen on the charge
of disobedience to orders, the court as
sembled night before last but adjourned
until to. morrow, when the trial of the
case will be entered upon. The case
against Mullen is a curious one. He was
not in his proper place as the officer in
command of him conceived on the occa-
sion of a recent parade or turnout, and on
being told 10 take his proper place he
omitted or refused to do SO, w~hereupon
he was placed under arrest and charges
preferred against him. Singular enough
the tactics seem to lay it down that his
proper place was just where the sergeant
insisted on %stationing himself, but it is
probable that the gist of his offence is the
alleged disobedience to a positive order.

GAVE THE BONDS.
The Territorial Stock Inspectors Quail
fed Yesterday.

Under the new law in regard to stock
and stock inspectors, etc., it is provided
that stock inspectors shall each give a bond
to the territory for the faithful discharge
of their duies, and yesterday Secretary
Shannon received official notice from R.
f. Glover, that the law had been com,
piled with in that respect and that the
bonds had been given and approved.

The foregoing named gentlemen have
all had much experience in the business,
and there is no doubt but that the stock
interests will be carefully looked after by
each and all of them.

A FALSE ALARM.
The Sheridan County Matter is
Still All Right,
And the Appropriation Bill is Per
fectIy Safe.
A Scare that was Based Upon {
misunderstanding.

Mr.. f. II. Becker Of johnson county
inadvertently, perhaps, succeeded in get
ting up quite a sensation yesterday by tel
~egraphing to Cheyenne that Judge Saufy
had decided that chapter go of the re-
vised statutes (Which provides for the Or
ganization of Converse and. Sheridan
counties and also the territorial appropri-
ations for the next two years. was uncon-
stitutional and void. The sensation was
spoiled, however, for Il. B. Hicks, presi-
dent of the First National bank, received
a telegram yesterday from Buffalo stating
that the Sheridan county case" had
been dismissed by Judge Saufy and the
validity of the law had thereby been
affirmed.
The canard which was perhaps inadver-
tently perpetrated On the people of Chey-
enne created considerable excitement here
yesterday. but the prevalent opinion was
that there was some CHASTITY joke about it
or at least a big mistake. The question
of the constitutionality of this law came
squarely before Judge Maginnis in the
Converse county case. and he held that it
was valid, and it was hard for members Of
the bar at least to understand how so
good a lawyer as Judge Sauly is could
have taken the view of the question that
wa stated in the telegram which was pub
lished in yesterday mornings Sun.
The case which has thus been disposed
of was originally brought to restrain GER
tain officers in Sheridan county from
assuming to act as such. Judge Blair
being out of the district at the time,
Judge Maginnis was appealed to and he
issued a temporary restraining order which
was subsequently vacated after the deci-
sion had been rendered in the Converse
county case.
The nti-Sheridanites however were
not to be outdone in this way and so they
got an Injunction from the probate Judge
of Johnson county and tried to have that
applied. Messrs Potter & Van Devanter
of this city however telegraphed up to the
other side to go right along just as though
nothing had happened, and theydid so,
totally disregarding the supposed iniunc-
ton. Subsequently these attorneye APP
piled to the supreme court Of the terri
tory to set aside this pretended injunction
which was done. This left the original
case pending in the district court of John
son county to be heard simply on its
merits and it is upon this hearing that
Judge Sauhy has dismissed the petition
and the case at the cost Of the anti-new
countyites, Mr.. Becker's telegram to the
contrary Notwithstanding.
The telegram received by Mr.. Hicks
was from G. N. Potter and therefore en-
.irely reliable. 1t reads as follows:
BUFFALO, July Judge Saufy has
dismissed the suit here on the grounds
that the original injunction was improp-
erly granted and the county already or
ganized. He now recognizes Sheridan
county. but he announced as his opinion
on the demurrer to the petition that the
law is invalid. Such opinion, however,
is not decisive of anything in the present
case, so far as the final result of the case
was concerned.

Very Handy.

Two young Denver gentlemen, Messrs.
Haley & Earls, are in the city introducing
a very valuable article in the shape of a
letter box which may be placed at the
doors of private residences for the con,
venience of the letter carriers. The box,
es are models of utility. Each one is pro
vided with a lock and there is an extra re-
ceptacle for papers in case the mail is
heavy. The cost of these boxes put in
position is only 81, SO that their conve.
niepce and cheapness should warrant a
big sale in this city. Letters placed in
them are not only shielded from the
weather but are c from thieves.

HAILsToRM.
The Gem City Left In a Badly Shattered
Condition..

The Laramie Boomerang in describing
the hailstorm says:
The first intimation of the approaching
storm was the appearance at odd intervals
of a hailstone of not unusual size to which
no attention was paid. In a short time,
however, these icy pebbles increased in
size and frequency, and in a few moments
the hail was falling with a roar and din
frightful to hear.
A pane of glass in one Of the west end
windows of the Boomerang office was
struck by a hailstone early in the storm,
and the passage of the icy ball through
the light left a hole precisely similar to
that made by a rifle bullet.
In ten minutes from the beginning not
a whole light of glass was left in the
Boomerang Office, and nearly every build
ing on the east side of our streets shared
a similar fate. The hailstones were in
many cases as large as a guinea hens egg,
and their terrific clatter on the tin roofs
and broken shingles was a sound sufficient
TO raise the dead. Not only was the glass
shattered. but in some instances the very
sash was completely splintered.
The storm ragged for over half an hour
and in that length of time the destruc.
ton of window glass alone will amount to
no less than $1,000 OF. Sc. 900, not to
speak Of the terrible loss inflicted on those
of our citizens who are the possessors Of
gardens and farms.

ABELLIGERENr PASSENGER.
He Makes Matters Lively on the Tran
Bound West.

The Western bound passenger train
last evening brought in a traveller who
had looked so many times on the wine
when it was red that he became frantic
and warlike-in fact he was able, in his
mind. to whip everybody in the city when
he struck the platform. Several hours
before, according to the passengers, he
began to get on the warpath and turning
himself loose in the car he offered to whip
the entire lot and eventually did violence
to three or four Finally he caught a
tartar, however, who knocked him down
and in falling he cut a big cash, in the
side OF his head which bled profusely.
This had the desired effect for awhile,
but he finally got to raving again and in
this condition he arrived in Cheyenne
when he was soon made to take his exit
to the platform by Officer Deitrick, who
started with him for the calaboose. The
fellow resisted to a considerable degree
until Capt. Smith came to the assistance
of Mr.. Deitrick when the belligerent in
dividual was promptly landed in the city
Jail where he now repases. The officers
were unable to learn the name Of the in
dividual and they will have to wait until
he sobers up IN order to ascertain it.
