CITY COUNCIL. rarewell Meeting of the
 Retiring Body. Time Devoted to Audit
 ing Accounts.
,,r.ot if Costs to Hold a Mu-
 nicipal Election.
,r,srestlng Statements and Reports concerning the Condition.
 of City Affairs.

The city council met last evening, .,o,, being present Mayor Campbell .na Councilman Ming, McNeill and Chapman.
 Rnt little business was transacted ,..ides auditing the election accounts. which were in the neighborhood of ,QoO settlement was made with the ritv marshal and everything was found ,o bs correct with the tax collector, even to the l67 dog tags, which, among otber regalia, were inspected and turued over. The marshal reported ,bir,y.three canines licensed to wear tbe emblem of safety, for which rev. anne of s2 piece had been collected.
 The question of electric light and new franchises was discussed by the members present and by Mayor Cole tbst is to be next Monday. together rith Mir. Lacey, the councilmsn-elect from the Third ward. Messrs. Cole and Lacey were on hand, apparently to gst on to the order of things. The pre- Sailipg opinion seemed to be that fran cbises should be granted to all who applied, provided they each gave the regulation requirement of fifty free lights 10 the city.
 At present the city is paying $67 a month for light, which was considered bysll present quite reasonable as nine constantly besides number of occa- inside and twelve street lights were used siOnsl lights in the governor, secretary and mayors offices. The street lights, however, were considered inadequate and almost worthless at present. Wm. Pickrell and J.. J. Gardiner are awaiting franchises, but no action will be taken until the new council is sworn in on Monday evening next.
 Some facts in regard to valuations and indebtedness were gleaned which shows that the total taxable property within the limits of the city is $1 1925, 75H3l and the total revenue of the city isSO,0 900 year from taxation licenses, etc.
 The city treasury at present contains nearly S2,5O0, but the outstanding in- debtedness is S55,000 including the bonded obligations interest on which is paid by the territory for the use of the governors and secretary's offices and the legislative halls, with a small mar gin to spare. The condition of the city is therefore quite iattering as $40, 900 of it's indebtedness was incurred in build ingthe city hall and providing fire de- partmert and engine house. The only thing depleted is the city jail which has at present no inmates. Maj. Schwartz, however, thought this defect could be supplied by Monday, so that much needed street improvement could be done in the northwestern part of the city. There is one man sure l think l can count on" said the recorder, "as he has served three years during the past four, and is thoroughly acquainted with street improvements"
 The meeting adjourned till Monday evening at which time the new officers will begin their rule.

A COMPROMISE PROBABLE.
A Friendly Conference Between eiVer

An ARre ement Likely,

Friendly Conference Between silver
ana Anti-suver Men Held Last Night
An Agre ement Likely,
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 10.-This
evening a proposition was formulated
by the anti-silver committee which, It's
believed, will be acceptable to the free
coinage committee, and that at the
meetIpg tomorrow morning the confer
ence will request the Committee on
Rules to report an order to the House
covering the arrangement.
1t is that the House proceed to the
discussion of bill providing for the
repeal Of the purchasing clause OF the
Sherman law, that opportunity be given
to offer an amendment providing Tor
free coinage OF silver at ratio to be
agreed upon by the silver men II pos
sible; il not, then votes shall be taken
upon the different ratios proposed.
II free coinage, at any ratio, be re-
jected, an amendment may be offered
similar to the Bland bill OF 1878, limit
ing the purchase Of bullion and amount
of coinage. This failing, the vote to be
taken upon the bill as introduced or un-
conditional repeal.
The discussion Is to last two weeks,
with the privilege TO any member who
fails to get q hearing OF printing his re-
marks in the Record. 1t will be OBJ
served that in this proposition the first
vote to be taken will be upon free coin
age and the last upon the unconditional
repeal of the purchasing clauses.
The anti-silver men surrender their
demand that the first vote to be taken
on unconditional repeal and II the silver
men accept the proposition, they Will
abandon the demand that their caucus
bill must be the basis Of action.
The situation was greatly simplited
tonight by the action of a conference
held at the residence OF Secretary Car
Isle, at which nearly forty gentlemen,
including the leaders Of the anti-siver-
ties, were present.
A general discussion of the prOposi-
tions submitted by the anti-silver COM
mittee was had, and it was agreed to
take the affirmative on the very propo-
sition.
The conference lasted nearly two
hours. and at It's conclusion those in at
tendance congratulated themselves that
the action taken was the best under the
circumstances.
A proposition will be made to tn sill
YER men tomorrow to close the debate
in ten days and then vote on the dif-
ierent propositions regarding free coin
ace, different rating and unconditional
repeal.
Mr.. Cochran and the other anti-silver
leaders expressed themselves as hopeful
that this plan will be agreed to.

VIII Go to Bu.zard's Bay.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., August ia
Washington special correspondent tele-
graphs his paper: -,
Within ten days Mr.. Cleveland will
return to Buzzard's Bay, and no mat
ter how important the reason that
takes him there, the effect will be a
tendency to disorRanization, and those
who have carefully watched the situa-
tion from the inside are OF the opinion
that IL will be almost impossible for
him to hold his party together for any
concerted financial issue. Unfortenate-
ly for Mr.. Cleveland there is no mem
Der of his Cabinet except Lamont who
seems to be on terms with the leadere
In the House or Senate. With Mr..
Cleveland at Buzzard's Bay, Secretary
Lamont alone and unaided will be called
upon TO act as the Cleveland whip.
Without wishing to disDarage Mr..
Lamont, 1t looks as II he is likely 40
have hard road TO travel.
