The finance committee of the city
council was in session yesterday after
noon for about two hours, having been
called into extraordinary session by
Chairman Mccormick for the purpose
of discussing several matters of vital
Importance to the city 1t was an in
teresting meeting, and before adjourn
ment the committee had talked over
the entire financial situation and de-
cided upon several recommendations
which will be made to the city council
at its next meeting. The city auditor
was taken into the consultation and
requested to give the members of the
committee the benefit Of his knowl-
edge of the financial condition of the
municipality. This required reference
to the books of the auditors office and
a general overhauling Of the affairs of
the city.
Now that the city may at its pleas
ure overstep the former limit of in
debtedness. and all strings having been
removed, it is proposed to at once draw
warrants for the salaries of the regu-
lar employees and officials of the CITY.
Time checks are to be done away with
in the future. The long overdue
claims against the city, which for
months have lain in the pigeon-holes
of the desk of the auditor. will be
placed upon the appropriation list and
passed upon by the council. Upon
their approval by the mayor, war
rants will be drawn for the amounts
and relief will be felt at once. There
is still a difference of opinion as to
the size of the first bond issue and the
matter will probably not be settled
until the return of the mayor, which
will be early in the week.

in the county Jail
The defiant little woman who had
been committed by Commissioner Pratt
because of her refusal to turn over
a gold watch in satisfaction Of a
judgment that overhangs her, entered
the court at o'clock accompanied by
the sheriff. She was represented by
S. w. Darke, esq, the commissioner
by Messrs. ]. H. Moyle and J. H. Hurd.
The application upon which the Gagged
creature sought her release set up that
on January II last Commissioner Pratt
rendered judgment against her and in
favor of A. B. Margetts ct al. for
S122.50 and $7.25 costs. That subse-
quently said commissioner issued an
execution on said judgment which was
directed to the United States marshal.
That on the following day before the
return of the officer on the execution,
the commissioner issued an order to
the petitioner in proceedings supple
mentary to the execution, restraining
her from disposing of or encumbering
any of her property until the termina-
ton of the proceedings. That she was
commanded to turn over her gold
watch and that in contempt of the or
der she was ordered imprisoned until
she complied.
Counsel for the petitioner attacked
the entire record as irregular and de-
MED the right of the commissioner to
imprison, at the same time setting up
that the watch in question was a. part
of the apparel and exempt from exc
cution.
Mr.. Hurd-Judge Zane has held to
the contrary and [ suppose that decis-
ion governs in this territory
Mr.. Darke-I don't suppose that one
district court in this territory will feel
itself bound by the rule of another.
The Court-It is well settled that an
execution will lie against a watch.

ing against the prisoners sex was to
him, he would have to discharge the
writ and remand Nellie to the custody
of the turnkey. Nellie will according
ly either dig up the watch or continue

has assumed the duties of his Office

himself to his new office for which he
is so thoroughly fitted. AS yet no

ffty men to work, the shifts to be
changed every three days. A force of
teams will also he put on in order
that the dirt taken from the excava-
ton may be hauled away to be used in
grading up other parts of the grounds
Already the committee has registered
