1t up TO keep il in repair for ave ysars and Der.

Delegate CallIs.n said there were complain d
OF damage In taking this bridge did the city
take lawsuitf
Mr.. Donworth replied that the supreme court
had decided that where . railroad structure 70
suited IN damage . city which permitted it,
erection would not b liable.
The unconditional acceptance OF the bridge
was voted down Mr.. Donworth then said he
had prepared . covenant Of indemnity 70 In
Guide the bridge, and IL was agreed to.
DR.. Mitten called attention to the provision
compelling the company to buy material in Sc
attic. He said no man in this city needed to b
made Seattle man BY Law. Yet 1t WAS not fair
to place 20 many restrictions. No one was par.
ccuiarly onefous, out so many conditions made
It very irksome and likely to jeopardiss the sale
OF the bonds
Mr. Calligan defended II and Mr.. Coryell said
he only desired to aid In the upbuilding OF

could depend on the patriotism of any
seattle man to do that: be doubted
the constitutiouality of the provision In
passing he comptmented Dr. Mitten
on his management of one OF the finest car
lines In the country. That and several other
amendments were adopted. Il was then pro-
posed that the period OF payment of percentages
should begin ten years from the date of
the original franchise instead of ton
years from now. and Dr.. Mitten then
said II that was insisted upon their work was
unavailing and the franchise would not b &C.
cepted; the amendment was voted down. The
amendment taking over the bridge was then ~
coded from.
The bill was referred to the engrossing COM
mittee
Delegate Coryell INTRODUCED again the bill to
close the saloons at midnight
Mr.. Caliigan said be thought Il was Q good
measure at first, but since he learned that
saloons were putting in lunch counters to evade
the ordinance he WA against It
Dr.. Crichton protested against allowing -
looms to be open on sunday.
Delegate Carlisle moved that the bill be in.
definitely postponed. They were frittsring
away their time, giving q stone where bread
was demanded. The bill was amended 90 a. to
keep the saloons closed only from until S
o'clock. 1t was, he said. an insult to the people.
The motion to suspend the rules failed OF sup
port aud it went over until the next session.
The discussion was unusually animated.

SQUIRE BAIRD DYING.

Charley Mltchells Friend and Backer
Seriously HI IT New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS. March 17-George A.
Baird, better known as Esquire Abingdon,
is in critical state and his death is ex-
pected ct any moment Ever since the
day Mitchell and Hall left this city the
squire has been confined to his bed. HIS
daily condition has grown worse. At first
it was believed he was suffering from q
severe cold which he contracted when
he seconded Jim Hall in the
fight with Fitxsimmons. 1t developed
shortly into pneumonia and high fevers
followed. For two days he has been delir-
ious and scarcely eats any food. Today
the doctors held . consultation, but moth
ing was agreed upon and they will hold
another tomorrow. The squire has been
in bad health for . month, but had never
been 90 seriously ill Is now. Today he
had q bad turn and mp to midnight
he was in . comatose condition. The
squire. since his arrival in this city, has
been leading . life of dissipation, and
since Halls defeat he hardly wentlto bed
until broken down in health. Physicians
are at his bed nearly all the time, and the
best Of attendance il given the sick sports
man. There 10 little hope for his recovery.
BUFFALO, N. Y. March 17.-"Fight in
Buffa!o7" said Charley Mitchell to a re-
porter tonight. "why, my dear boy, there
isn't . place on earth where I'd rather
fight than Buffalo" When Mitchell
registered at the hotel the clerk handed
him telegram. 1t was from the valet of
his friend, Squire Abingdon. and read ::
Abingdon surely dying. Three physi-
clans are in consultation over him. You
had better come Immediately" Mitchell
was much depressed over the bad news
and during the rest of the evening talked
of little else but his sick friend.

HOUSE OF DELE0ATIO.
Another Session Devoted to Clrcuu
aCribinG . Franchise.

The house Of delegates took up tho extension
Of the franchise OF the Madison street line. The
only material amendment proposed was that the
Madison street bridge be coded to the city.
Delegate Cook feared that the city was taking
a very expensive contract on its hands. II the
bridge were destroyed by fire the city would
have to rebuild 1t.
President kioeber thought they might allow
an interval of five years: and Mr.. Cook believed
the general provisions Of the franchise would
govern.
Corporation Counsel Donworth said, in reply
to questions, that 1t was entirely . matter Of
business He outlined the means by which the
provisions could be included.
DR.. Mitten said he had about reschedthe point
OF resistance He had come there in Q conciliatory
spirit but he did not believe the council had
- . body . right to do what would be unjust
on the part of individuals. It had been init.
mated that he could not get the franchise unless

They Explode . Dynamite Bomb In His
House ut Rome.

RoME, March ia bomb was exploded
In the Anoni Mattel palace, the official
residence of United States Minister Porter,
early this morning. Fortunately nobody
was hurt and but little damage done TO the
building. No cause is known for the deed.
The building was occupied by two other
families besides that of United States
Minister Porter. A similar outrage was
perpetrated in the same building in 1892,
and as Porter had only engaged the build
ing for occupation in the closing days of
that year it 10 believed that the fact of the
place being inhabited by the American
minister had nothing to do with the out
rage. but that the motive for causing the
explosion was to crafty desire for venge-
ance upon the proprietor OF the place,
irrespective Of whether the residents were
injured or not. This was the motive sus-
pected 1t the time of the first explosion,
and there 10 no reason to take . different
view now.
The United States minister called ct the
foreign Office this afternoon and told
Signor Brin, minister of foreign affairs,
that he was convinced the explosion was
not intended to injure him or affront his
government. He expressed regret that such
an embarrassing incident had occurred
and assured Signor Brin of the sympathy
OF the United States government and its
willingness to let the affair pass unnoticed.
Signor Brin thanked him for the visit, and
two hours later returned the call to inform
him that the Italian government felt the
deepest regret on account of the incon-
venience caused to him and his family BY
the explosion.
