Murderer of John Smith i'm the
Clutches of the Law.
"A telegram was received last night
announcing the arrest, in Montana. of
Dennis PickenS, who is wanted in this
city for murder.
Friday, March IS. last, Pickens, who
was employed at the Metropolitan cafe
as waiter, had a dispute with J. Smith,
also waiter. over a plate OF butter,
Which Smith took from tray carried
by Pickens. Both mea were colored,
and as the eye-witnesSeS to the affair
explained. ''Pickens was a little the
quickest with his razor." Smith was
terribly slashed by the instrument
welded by Pickens, the left side of his
neck being cut from the back of
his head nearly to the windpipe.
died few hours afterward, being uf,-
conscious to the time OF his death. The
police were notified at once, messen-
ger acquainting Capt. Cook OF the
affray. For some reason tue officer
started alone for the scene,
and during the excitement he
allowed PickenS to escape. Since that
time every effort has been made to ap-
'prehend the murderer. Circulars ana
letters giving full description of Pick
ems. accompanied by photographs,
were sent to all the principal cities
by ex-Chief Clark and ex-Chief of De-
tectives John j. O'Cnnnor. In Nav
werd was received that Pickens had
been seen in Butte, Mont. Another
batch of letters addressed to all the
larger cities in Montana and Wash

ems arrest is. undoubtedly due
to tue efforts of the police officials who
resigned'on June Z. No telegram had
been received at police headquarters
last night about the arrest of Pickens-

SIGN OF WEAKNESS.
The Assembly and It's Action
on the Como Electric
Extension. Is
A Resolution Recalled Which
Had Been Sent to the
Mayor.
Workingmen Pass RaSping
Resolutions on the Home
stead Outrage.
Pickens, the Murderer Of
John Smith, Arrested
in Montana.

There were but six members of the
assembly present when the city clerk
called the roll at O'Clock last night.
The pay rolls fol. the street and sewer
force, amounting to $40, 522 21; court
house and city hall, s697.5O, and general
bridge, sewer and local assessment,
Sl,SS5. p, were passed. The ordinance
increasing the amount of certificates of.
Indebtedness for the street and sewer
fund from 5000. authorized at recent
meeting, to $4,000, could not be passed
owing to there not being the necessary
three-fourths vote present.
Assemblyman johnson, who must
either be mind-Teader or stands very
close to the mayor, asked that the or
dinance instructing the. street railway
company to complete the line into
Como park before July Is be recalled.
The ordinance had passed both branches
OF the council and i4ssnow in the hands
of the mayor. Mr.. Johnson said he had
been informed that under the ordinance
granted the striaet railway company
they were not compelled to lay lines on
streets where sewers had not been
constructed. He intimated the
mayor was going to veto the
ordinance, and, in order to not
handicap that official in the opinion
of the public. insisted that the ordi-
nance be recalled. There was some Ques-
ton as to whether the assembly could
do any business aside from that inen-
toned i'll the call for the meeting, but
Mr.. Johnson pleaded so hard that the
motion to recall was finally put to a
vote and carried.
1t was claimed at the meeting of the
committee OH streets from the board of
aldermen Oh Saturday last that the pro-
yiso in the ordinance which required
the construction Of sewers on all streets
before>the company could be compelled
to construct lines had been waived in
this particular case. The waving of
this clause Mr.. Lowry now denies, and
claims when the sewer is constructed
the line will be extended.

AssembIymen Who Will Not Work
in the Dark.
Messrs. Lightner and Pike. represent
ing the committee on ways and means
of the assembly, held session yester-
day afternoon. Robert Seeger asked to
have his bills for street lighting for the
months of May and June, amounting to
s7.965.60, approved. MIR. Lightner said
the committee did not intend to act like
figure heads on matters they did not
understand. and Mr. Pike said the same,
or nodded his head at Mr.. Lightner's
statement. The first objection raised
to the approval of the bill
was that the clerk of the
board of public works had not properly
signed them. Mr.. Seeger journeyed to
the comptroller's office, and returned
with the contract. A perusal of the
contract showed the bills did not have
to be approved 10y the board Of public
works, and the bills were marked D K.
The bond of the German-American
bank was reported to be in correct form
by the city attorney, and approved.
The communication from the comp
troi1er calling attention to the money
paid for livery i'll the city engineers
Office, and asking for resolution order
ing the bills paid was next considered
City Engineer RUndiett explained that
the seven teams used in connection
with TIE work of the Office were neces-
sary. MI. Pike thought the city had bet
ter start livery stable. because it
would certainly be cheaper to run than
to pay 5000 per year for livery for the
engineers office. Mr.. Lightper thought
the city was paying too much for the
livery, and that there was no need for
SO many teams. He thought, perhaps,
the city engineer did not want to make
an explanation of the matter Oh account
of the way the business was conducted
by the ''old regime" To this no denial
was made, leaving the impression that
there had been something wrong. Mr.
Lightner said the idea OF MIR. Pixies
about the city conducting livery was
out of the question. The city engineer
wanted the committee to visit his Office
and see the amount of work done by
the men using the teams, and in order
to act more intelligently On the matter
it was laid over until the next meeting.
