the Fourth ward. from the Board upon an
allegation that he is a nonresident of that
ward, did not achieve a successful cul.
minatlon at the adjourned meeting held
by the Board last evening, although
seven Republicans and two Democrats
interested in the scheme were only op-
posed by five Democrats and one Repu b.
lican. The latter. however, was in the Pres
ident's chair. and his firmness in refusing
to recognize the attempts of the majority
to oust Trustee Hickey was the sole
reason for the temporary defeat of the
conspirators.
A BIG CROWD.
Through the exclusive publication in
THE NEWS of the facts of the conspiracy.
there was large crowd of interested
citizens in attendance in the lobby when
President Griswold convened the Board
at half-past eight o'clock. When
Secretary Humphrey finished calling
the roll, Trustee Edwards, the arch con-
spirator, arose and moved to dispense
with the regular order of business and
proceed with the rule for mo-
tions and resolutions. Trustee
Wauters seconded the motion.
President Griswold declared the motion
lost. He, however, permitted the calling
of the yeas and nays upon the demand of
Trustee kerley. The vote carried the
motion, being as follows:-Yeas, Trustees
Wheeler, Allen, Edwards, Wauters, Ker-
ley, Graham. Lonsdale. Doyle and Wirth,

Mcbride and President Griswold, 6.
TRIED TO BOUNCE HIM.
At the instance OF Trustee Edwards.
Trustee Doyle, one of the conspiring
Democratic members. arose and
offered a resolution to remove
Trustee Hickey as member from
the Fourth ward, alleging hon-resi-
dence and consequent violation of the
revised city charters provisions. Presi-
dent Griswold ruled the resoltion out of
order, saying that he refused to entertain
the measure because it was too ar
btrary. Trustee Doyle appealed from
the decision. The crowd in the
lobby laughed and Kissed at him. Presi-
deut Grlswold refused to recognize the
appeal. Trustee Doyle informed the
President that he was not king and was
again hissed and jeered. PIesi
deut Griswoll replied that he did
no5 consider himself king or a
grand duke, either, bu Ia was the Presi-
dent. and as such he " ould refuse 10 eu-
tertain any measure calculated TO legis-

prove The facts alleged.
DoYLE'S FIRM HAND.
Justice Doyle became very m uch ex-
cit ed and insisted that his appeal should
be recognized. President Griswold an
swered that he would not
allow any measure to ar
bitrarily remove any man. Trustee
Doyle was boiling with rage, and Trus-
tee Edwards stated that he knew positive
ly that Mr.. Hickey did not live in the
Fourth ward. Trustee Hickey replied
that he was willing to have the matter
referred to committee for investigation
if it was properly presented. He said ne
wanted something tangible presented to
show that he was not resi-
dent of the Fourth ward, and
further said that President Griswold
to be- consistent conld not entertain
Trustee kerley's motion. Trustee Gra-
ham seconded Mr.. Kerley's motion. but
the measure was declared out of order by
the President.
A motion to adjourn was lost as was a
motion to proceed with the regular order
of business. Trustee Wheeler again
brought the matter before the
Mites %ittee of five 's be Appointed @ ''tt to

heard this season on the roads in this vi
cinity, for Palma is to have a wheeling
division. The enthusiasts, George Earl,
Charley Kluge, Frame Van Buren. Kent
aud Baggot, have been talking bicycle fol
several weeks. 1t interested the young
men. "Why not form a wheeling con.
tingent2' was the natural sugges-
tion. Up went the announce
ment and request tor all those
who favored the project to sign the paper.
A safety was procured and tested in the
gymnasium. The sensation was SO pleas
ant that those who regarded bicycle
driving as hazardous, were won. In a
few hours these names appeared on the
list of advocates of the bicycle
company:-M. F. Frame, B. Van Buren.

the scheme. George II. Earl. j. Hansen
and M. f. Frame were appointed us the
committee to draft constitution and by

will be granted promptly and that the
