offered to accept this solution Of the tangle
in which he found himself, but Mr.. Lamb
ing took the, floor, and said the Common
Council resolution had been improperly
understood. While the preamble, OF that
resolution touched upon the electors being
called upon to vote upon the question, the
actAal text of the document made no refer.
ence to it, and none was intended. Mr..
Mr.. Lambing thought the matter was drift
ing to an unseemly contest between Select
and Common Councils for the Craftsmanship
of that special committee.
MR.. ROBERTSON AMENDED.
Mr.. Robertson maintained that he had no
thought of such contest He wanted some
provision made to insure prompt action and
an early report on the part of the committee.
In order to secure this he offered several
amendments and changes, but was ruled out
of order until he withdrew his resolution
entirely and then amended the Common
Council resolution bv adding to it: This
committee shall report in time to give
Finance Committee an opportunity to en-
body the same in their general appropria-
ton"
DR.. Evans was opposed to considering the
purchase of any of the bridges, as the
figures they would ask would probably be
too ridiculous to think Of. He reminded
Mr.. Robertson of his speech week ago, in
which he urged the purchase of the Point
bridge "This bridge" he continued, "cost
$500, 900 when built, but has never paid any
thing on the investment, and is probably
the reason they want to sell. But if there
is not enough travel to make it pay it
would be but little Of an improvement over
the present state of affairs, because there is
com paratively few to use it. As monu-
ment to the Tnirty-sixth ward the Point
bridge would no doubt be a success, but no
one else scarcely would get any use of it but
Thirty-ffth and Thirty-sixth ward people.
Mr. Monroe and Mr.. Nisbet both coun-
selled against haste in the matter of pro-
ceeding Tor free bridges. Mr.. Monroe said
he thought, and there were others with him,
that as Pittsburg and Allegheny paid 70 per
cent of the taxes required for free bridges
over small streams throughout the county,
the county should help to pay for free
bridges in the two cities. He thought the
Bridge Committee should get some good
legal advice on this view of the matter, and
find out if the county could not legally be
compelled to pay its share.
Mr.. Nisbet thought that the Common
Council resolution, and Mr.. Robertson's as
well, were asking too much in the time they
had to act according to its provisions. How
ever, he would support the Common Council
resolution as amended by Mr.. Robertson, if
the resolution previously offered by him was
included as an amendment to it. This was
agreed to, and both amendments were
adopted, after which Council adjourned,

The Police Surgeon Will Live for Several
Months Yet.
Discouraging reports of the condition of
DR.. Oldshue. police surgeon, having been
current for some days, a call was made at
his home on Fifth avenue last ev ening to
ascertain the true state of affairs.
DIR. Meyer, his assistant, said that al
though the doctor was very sick man, the
attendant physician mad by no means lost
hope of his recovery. His vitality at pres
ent was high enough to warrant his living
for several months unless some accident
should occur. He is being attended by four
doctors, among which is Joseph Dickson,
NJ. D., and every care possible is taken.'
The condition of the patient has much i'm
proved since last Thursday.
The doctor added that. to show how mis-
takes may occur in the diagnosis of a case,
DR.. Oldshue was examined by an eminent
physician of New York on his return from
Europe in September. He was told that he
had but ten days to live. This DR.. Meyer
accounted for by the fact that DR.. Oldshue.
already suffering from malignant disease,
was exhausted by a long voyage and very
low both in spirits and vitality. To-day,
he said, the prospects were much better and
there was no foundation for the statement
that the patient had suffered from para
lvtic stroke,

DROVE A STRONG MAN TO WATER.
Mr.. Potter, Filled With Whisky, Tries to
Water Stock.

Although the water supplied by the Mo-
nongahela Water Company, with tbe Beck's
Run sewage compartments, might drive
a man to whisky as beverage, the contrary
took place about 1890 P. M. yesterday.
Richard Potter, who claims to hail from
Masontown, Pa, ran down Grant street,
pursued, as he said, by select assortment
Of imaginary Italians, armed with stilettos
and Salvini's cultural style of defamation.
Not stopping to consider the lilies and
other floating population of the river at
that point, he plunged in up to his neck,
thus obtaining an exterior water gauge at
level with the spirit gauge of his interior.
Officer Maxwell interrupted the natatory
exercises Of Mr.. Potter, and calling the
patrol wagon sent him to a dryer place in
the Central station, where by morning he
will have become very dry, both externally
and internally. His charge was that of be-
ing a simple drunk. but to avoid any
suicidal attempts, as we'll as a severe cold
from wet garments, his clothing was re-
moved and blanket as tough as boarding
house beefsteak substituted.

ANOTHER RAILROAD PUZZLE.
A Reduction in Freight Rates Causing Trou-
BILE Among Western Lines.

BILE Among Western Lines.
The railroads west of Chicago have issued
a circular giving rates from Chicago, st.
Paul and Minneapolis and intermediate
points, which they will apply on business
originating east of the Indiana and Illinois
State line The rates are governed by the
official classification, while on business
originating in Chicago higher rates will be
charged and governed by the Western CLASH
fcation.
The railroads east of Indiana and Illinois
State lines have not yet decided whether it
will be legal or not for them to be party to
this transaction by issuing through rates on
any other basis than the regular local rates
from Chicago. By SO doing there will be
some cases in which the rates from Chicago
would be higher than the through rates from
points east The lines west of Chicago claim
they have the authority from the Interstate
Commerce Commission to make the proper.
tional tariffs to meet the competition via
Northern routes.
