morning and laid down a bundle of papers.
What is thatp asked the first assist ant
postmaster general in a suspicious tone
"A list of fourth class postmasters wish
you would have appointed right away" re-
piled the congressman with fine sample of
Nebraska confidence.
Col. Clarkson looked at the papers and
then at the congressman's bland counte-
nance.

Up a Row There.
Walter Meyler will have a variety of
charges to answer in the police court this
morning He was arrested yesterday by
Officers Higgins, Troup Durham and Hall

eastern part of the city. On his way to the
barracks he made things lively for Officer
Hall, and the charge of cursing an officer
was preferred against him.
The affray, which resulted in Meyler's
arrest, took place shortly after noon, and
grew out of some trouble about the collec-
ton of rents for property which Meyler
owns In Goat alley.
The witnesses who will appear in
police court against him this morn.
ing say that Meyler ran wild and
knocked them right and left with
an ak and piece of iron pipe. He struck
one negro in the head with an ak and
woman in the side with a piece Of iron.
The woman is quite seriously injured. Half
a dozen others were dubbed in the melee.
Eleven witnesses have been summoned in
the case. Meyler gave bond yesterday
afternoon, and was released from the
barracks. He says that he was set upon by
the negroes, and what he did was in self
defense. After the ARRAY he went to the
Southern Express Company stables and had
just telephoned the barracks for squad Of
policemen when he was arrested.

TO OPEN A oLoGGED SEWER.
The City Council to Begin an Impor-
tant Sanitary Work.

The City Council to Begin an Impor-
tant Sanitary Work.
A difficult and expensive work was be-
gun yesterday morning by the street aud
lane committee of council, the cleaning out
of the West Boundary street sewer from the
point of discharge at the river opposite the
Central press warehouse to the point of be-
ginning at the intersection Of Little Jones
and West Boundary streets.
A MORNING NEWS reporter drove over
the line of the sewer yesterday with Alder
derman Ha mon, chairman of the street
and lane committee, and found the sewer
traps overlooking the street from Lumber
street northward. The sewer drains Yama-
craw, and always has been troublesome, re-
curing expensive excavation and difficult
work to clean it out, as it fills up with sand
deposits, which become harder than sand
deposits outside.
MIR. G.. Bevill, who has been selected by
Chairman Harmon to supervise the work of
cleaning the sewer, was asked what causes
it to fill up He said that there is very
little grade fall in the first place, and since
the connections at New and West Boundary
streets, and at New and Farm streets, and
at other points, much heavier volume of
sand is washed in after every rain The
tide water comes into the sewer, and it was
suggested by Alderman Harmon yesterday
that the heavy iron fioodgate may be one
of the causes which have contributed to the
filling up. City Surveyor Winn will visit
the point of discharge to examine it to-day,
and if he thinks light wooden fioodgate is
better it will be substituted for the heavy
iron plate, which weighs several hundred
pounds and must offer great resistance to
the outflow of the sewage from a sewer
having too little fall to start with.
Eight years ago the sewer had to be
cleaned out, and the work cost something
like 1900 or $4,000. A little over four
years ago it required three months to clean
it out.
Mr.. Bevill has a force of thirty men en-
ployed, and excavations are being made at
intervals of fifty to sixty feet between the
be loosened with pick and shovel and
wheeled to the nearest opening, where it is
to be raised by hand windlass, but if this
should not be rapid enough, an engine viii
be used. The effort will be made to have
the sewer cleaned out by May 1,
but that will depend on the extent
of the blocking up. At one point
the sand will have to be wheeled
through the sewer for a distance of $50
feet, if an excavation is not put down in
the Central cotton press warehouse, which
is being considered, the long wheel being
from Indian street to the point Of discharge.
The sewer has diameter of feet parallel
with the surface, but is not quite SO deep.
Mr.. Bevill cleaned it out Cnce before, and
he says it was a most difficult work.
