Rights OF the women in Germany.

Rprlin's Mattresses have declared

movement They did ii TWO weeks
aero with such turbulence n Berlin has
NIT seen in a meeting since the DAYS of
Ferdinand Las>alle, and they took steps
toward realizing in everyday life the
purpose of their declaration.
The meeting began in the Arminius
Hill at midnight, for at that hour Ber-
lin mattresses are first relieved Of their
killing duties. They found in the hall
several students intent on raising a
row. and at once showed their spirit
by throwing three diSnrbers through
window aud another through a door
way. Then they explained their
wrongs. Their wages, their state
ments showed. were hardly 81 % a
week; their tips were appropriated by
landlords, and their hours of work
were from 9 r. M. to 1850 p. m. or
later. When they appeared in fancy
dress, as for instance in the carnival
season, they were obliged TO pay
enormous prices for their costumes to
the landlords. Heavy fines were inn
posed on every waitress who broke
anythings so that, in fact, no waitress
got much more than IS a month with
which to pay for her board aud lodg-
ings. a landlord who protested
against these statements was tossed
oul iuto the garden.
Cigarettes and cognac were passed
while committee outlined plan for
Mattresses Protective Union, the
object of whic, will bs to strike unless
reforms are Immediately forthcoming.
The MarSeilaise was sung. the COM
mittees report was adopted, and then
the Mattresses adjourned to the gar
dea where. over beer. they discussed
it until morning.
Berlin landlords whe live from the
trade of officers and students have
been thrown into a state of fear aud
trembling 10y this declaration of rights,
since even a temporary absence of
"HuIdan and Meta and Anna"
would ruin their trade, which is more
tepeudenI on the pIquancy of the wait
lesses than on the quality of the beer.

The twenty committees of the Business
Mems union, appointed to solicit subscrip-
ions to the fund TO be raised for fostering
manufacturing and commercial enterprises,
have gone energetically to work. 1t looks as
though there would be no difficulty in raising
the million dollars desired, and even more.
T.. B. Walker is said to have sub
scrihed S250,000 for the st. Louis
Park Investment company. aud it
is thought that $500 coo of the amount has
already been secured. Subscribers to the
fund do not agree to advance money 10 the
Business Mems union for investment, it
should be understood, but simply TO invest Il
certain amount in some manufacturing or
jobbing enterprise before Jan. l, 1894. Of
the amount subscribed y per cent is TO be
invested before July 1. 1891. and % per cent
yearly thereafter. The chairmen OF the COM
mittees are as follows: w. \. Barnes and j.

COUNCIL COMMITTEE WORK.
Some of Them Did a Little, But
Not Very Much.

Council committees were attended with
any degree of unanjmity yesterday. A few
of them did a little business. Others couldn't
get a quorum. The water works committee
met in the morning and did a little work. 1t
decided to recommend a watering trough at
Twentieth avenue north and Second street.
1t refused to annul the order for mains on
Sixth street northeast, and on Lake street
from Ninth to Fourteenth avenues. Mains
were ordered on Thirty-sixth street from Chi
cago to Twelfth avenue south, on Delaware
street southeast from Union to Church
streets. Fulton street southeast from Oak to
Harvard streets, Seventh street south from
Cedar to Nineteenth avenue south. The city
engineer was instructed to propose plans for
al oil storage house at the north side pump
ing station, to be used as n repository for
the oil that will be burned for fuel.
The committee on accounts of city officers
heard the report of T. S. Dickey that he had
checked the books of the various city officers
and found them all right. He states the re-
celpts of the municipal court tor 1890 were
S43, 120.55, and of the city clerks Office. S10,-
$3.50
The committee on sewers ordered q twelve
inch sewer, the minimum size, on Fulton
street southeast, between Oak and Harvard
streets. I. d. Mcmillan asked to be relieved

connections with some of his Central avenue

property before the paving is put down. He
says when connections become necessary he
can make them on the Sixteenth avenue side.
He will be asked to come before the commit
tee aud explain. Aid. Parry thought some
provision should be made by foremen in
the employ Of the city to obviate the neccs-
sity for laborers who live in the Thirteenth
ward going away over to the Ninth ward to
work. TIL men sho1ld be employed nearer
home. Durham explained that the foremen
cannot diSOrganize their crews, as they
would have to do to comply with Parry's
suggestion, and get efficient work. Aid. Nc
CURE suggested that the city engineer be di-
rected to allow no man to handle dynamite
In blasting who does not understand the eX-
ploslve. There are several damage suits now
pending, due to the handling of explosives
by incon petents.
The committee on police directed Supt.
Henderson to buy Il horse and buggy and
charge it up to the city.
The salaries committee will recommend
thot the salaries Of Robert Wilson and Mat
thew Sheridan, ~janitors at the central police
station, be increased SO per month.
The Evening journal says: 1.-The railroads

fer system, and the petition asking for the

eral Manager Goodrich was present and par
tclpated i'll the discussion. Several ordi-
nances regarding street railway extensions

roads the right to maintain tracks i'll certain

did not secure a quorum and did

CRIMINAL
The Grand Jury and the Grist OF
Old Indictments.

oho IO 0IASG Vi
Old Indictments.
The grand jurymen assembled in the court
house yesterday morning, but four of their
number were found to be absent. This left
the number inadequate to form a quorum.
and a special venire was drawn, consisting
of j. NJ. Bartlett. Frank C. Nickels, J.. B..
Croker and c. C. Austin, and a deputy sent
after them. The jury will meet at 10 o'clock
this morning. County Attorney THAN dis
missed the cases OF Ballard and Bostwick,
entering nolles in the indictments that have
appeared on the calendar so often as to be
old landmarks. isadore Monasch appeared
for himself, and his trial was set by Judge
Pond for April IL. The LAWYERS casss were
also set for that date. The cases of Glenn
and the Stewards went down for the same
date. Leo Heilpern appeared with his law
yers, and his case was set for A pril 16, al
though the matter will probably not be heard
until later. Default was entered in the case
of Edward Wagner, and in some other cases
coming up fl ON the municipal court.
The case of Clerk Haney was called, but
will probably not be heard this term, having
apparently gone to roost in the supreme
court, where the demurrer is being consid-
cred. The assault case of Lafayette Tyler
was put on the calendar.
James Mayfield, the man who was arrested
directly upon his release from Saltwater on
an Indictment, was before the criminal court
Yesterday with MS attorney, Frank Nye. The
eloquent relative of the great josher plead for
his client until the man burst into tears.
Frank wanted him released. He said that it
was a hardship that this man should be ex-
pected TO get witnesses on the case after
nearly five years had elapsed. He had been
arrested and tried for the shooting of Walter
Winston. whose father, c.. c. Winston, is a
sewing machine agent, during a row with the
man. The whole affair had been taken into
consideration in the first trial, and for that
reason he had been given the utmost limit of
the law i'll the case. and had served nearly
five years. Then he was brought before the
court to answer on an indictment for an as
sault on the father.
Mr.. Nye claimed that the state should have
had the prisoner brought up at once when
the Indictment was ound. Judge Lochren
asked if he had any precedent to show for
his motion to dismiss on the ground that
there had been a delay i'll the a~rraignment.
He sGld that he had zone, but he thought it
an unheard Of thing, in fact, an action that
had not come up before in his memory. Mr..
Than did not argue very strongly against the
motion, but it came out that the old gentle
man VINO had been assaulted still had the
bullet in his head.
The case was argued for a time, and finally
Judge Lochren decided that the hearing
might be continued until next Saturday,
when such authorities as can be gathered
will be brought in to bear on the point at
issue. Mr.. Nye will make q hard battle for
the mans dismissal.
