MAY GO OVER.
The Matter of Congressional
Apportionment.
SECRETARY NELSON'S SCHEME.

The Work Done Yesterday and What May
May be Done Until After Congress Ad-
Journs-Another Scheme
1t was expected that final decision
would be resched at Springfield today on
the respportiOnnent of the state, but it
looks now as il there would be some de-
lay, at least until more popular plan be
presented than that prepared by Secretary
Nelson. A Springfield dispatch to Chi
cago paper of today says:
AGood Days Work
The indications tonight are that there
will be no congressional respportionment
of Illinois until after the adjournment of
the present session of congress. The
protesting congressman, State Central
Committeeman Potter, and ex-Represen-
tative Hurst, representing Congressman
Gable, and State Secretary Hinrichsen
and other friends of Congressman
Springer have worked with such energy
today thai they have apparently succeed.
ed in entirely demorslizing the Nelson
bill. A conference of the democratic
members OF the congressional spportion-
ment committees of the house and senate
WAS held this evening, but no action was
taken except to decide to report TO the
caucus tomorrow that no progress had
been made
| Another Plan.
Senator Sylvester Allen, of Scott coun-
ty. has just completed plan of sppor-
tionment outside of Cook county to be

It is a remarkable fact that the nunbC I
of prisoners in the county jsils over the
state outside of Cook county has fallen
Of nearly e-half in the last yea. In
other words there are only about one
half the number OF criminals doing time
This fact is evidenced by the difference
in ou- own county Jail. where the mum.
Der on Feb. 9 last year was 81 and today
there are only H. Sheriff Gor6on's books
show that in January 90 there were 81
prisoners confined in the jail and las
month. the number averaged but "a. Ii
Cook county tue ratio is higher which il
no doubt due TO the Influx of the tough
element that will hold sway in Chicago
during the Worlds fair.

SUED AT DUBUQUE.
Atkinson & Olof Made Defendants to
Proceedings Growing Out of Paving
Work

Atkinson & OloT Made Defendants to
Work.
An attachment suit has been entered
against Atkinson & Oloff. of this city, at
Dubuque, by creditors Of that city. The
firm has paving contract at Dubuque,
portion of which has been finished,
8nd the claim is made that they were
uni Istly treated by the city in payment
for the same The contract provided
that "a per cent should be paid them
as operations progressed in monthly
estimates for all completed work, 90
per cent when the contract was fla
ished. and the remaining 5 per cent
retained until enc year after the COM
pletion of the contract as security
against imperfect work or materials.
In consequence of the continuous rains
during the earlier part of last summer,
the Improvement was so delayed that
when completed from Seventeenth to
Jones street, the weather had become
| so cold that it was neither for the inter-
est of the city, nor for the contractors to
| continue the work last fall, and it was
naturally agreed that it should be sus-
pended until next spring. The contrsc-
tors we're paid the rs per cent on their
,utract from Seventeenth to Jones, as
stipulated. They asked the council,
h owever. to pay them 25 per cent more
to enable them to settle up with Dubuque
parties for labor and material furnished
This was bitterly opposed by portion
of the council, aud was defeated by the
casting vote OF the mayor.
Now comes an alderman, and in an in
terview in the Dubuque Telegraph, says
that no good has been accomplished by
this refusal, and that the city acted I'M
Justly in refusing to pay the contractors
until spring, as a result of which the Du
buaue creditors had to be stood off. He
SAYS the work was well done. and AL
though according to the literal terms OF
the contract the city was not bound to
make the 20 per cent payment.he alleges
that il would have beea graceful act
had the CITY done so.

Respectively, lie and g Drowned at the
Foot of Seventeenth Street-DetaiIs of
the Catastrophe-Recove of the Body
of the Little Girl-Grief and Despair of
the Parents-The Coroner's Inquest.
A sad and shocking fatality occurred at
the foot of Ess: Seventeenth street at
12:45 this afternoon, by which Albert
and Ellen 6odgson. aged respectively, 10
and g years. lost their lives. The an
fortunate little ones are the children of
Albert Hodgson and wife, residing at
1910 First avenue who came here from
St Louis last November
Were Sliding Down Hill.
The children, who were attending
school, had come home to dinner after
finishing which they h,d gone out in
company with George Imhoff, a compsn>
ion, to coast on the river bank. The
brother and sister were riding down on
sled together, and having gotten q good
start ran ont further than usual and
plunged INTO the large air hole at the foot
Of the street. They were out Of sight in
an instant and their companion after
watching in vain for them to resppear
ran home and informed his father, NichS
olss Imhoff, who FASTENED to the Hodg-
son home snd tod the family the sad
news.
Found the Little Girl
The father, who was almost frantic.
rushed to the river. and finding no trace
OF his missing o0es, ran on down along
the shore to the air hole about block
below, where he plunged into the icy
curreu. almost up TO his neck, and grop.
ing about he fortunately caught the lit c
girl and brought her to shore. She was
taken to the saddened home, where
medical attendance was secured suG
every effort made to resus citate her, but
it was too late. The frenzied father, for
getting his exhausted condition and his
exposure, ran back to the river and vain
ly sought to recover the body of the boy
but his efforts were futile. In all probs-
bility the body of the unfortunate lad wal
swept down the river under the ice by
rushing current.
A party OF men at once set to WORK
cutting the ice away, in the hopes Of
finding the body of the unfortunate boy
but up TO late hour had not been sue
| cessful.
