move building on Fourth street be.
tween Chestnut and Adams was
granted.
A communication was read from DR..
Mitchell regarding his claim for
damages done his property on upper
Main street by widening the same.
He wants to settle by arbitration. The
matter after discussion was laid on
the table.
The City Attorney recommended
the preparation and filing of a plat oil
the Fourth street bridge. the channel
and the proposed plan of closing the
east waterway. He thought this
would in time save litigation and give
the city fighting ground to stand
upon.
A liquor license was granted d. NJ.
Snyder at 800 Main street.
An ordinance was passed providing
for Council meetings on the first
Monday of each month instead of the
bimonthly meetings.
An ordinance to punish gamblers
and suppress gambling was introduced
by Mr.. Savage. Itprovides for Q fine
of from $25 to 500 for playing any OF
the ordinary games at cards or dice
for " money. checks, credit, drinks OF
other consideration" and imprison.
ment from five to thirty days or both.
A similar penalty is provided for the
owner, proprietor or employe in any
place allowing gambling. Another
section provides for punishment OF
police officers who shall not arrest
persons guilty of such violations oil
the ordinance, and loss of position.
Mr.. Van Epps introduced an ordi.
nance for closing saloons at midnight.
Both ordinances were referred.
On motion Of Mr.. Lane the city dis.
continued the use of gas as a lumin.
ant, and the Committee on Fire
Light and Water was instructed 10
provide for some substitute from the
light of other days!"
On motion of Mr.. Schofield the
City Attorney was instructed TO col.
lect the delinquent taxes from the
county.
The Clerk was authorized by vote
to notify the water company that the
city will pay not to exceed $1,000 fol-
water this year. The motion az pre-.
sented by Schofield suggested 81, SOC
but this was promptly cut down to ST..
QUO by the ever-vigilant Councilman
Lane.
1t was reported that several alleys
are blocked with rubbish and the
street commissioner was instructed to
notify property owners to clean up the
alleys.
On motion OF Savage the owners oil
the property on the south side OF
Eighth street between Washington
and Main between Union and Eleventh
be notified to clean the dirt off the
sidewalks which are partially covered
by caving of the banks.
A proposition to renew the insur-
ance on the city hall, was after quite
squabble laid on the table. the senti-
ment being that the city could not sf-
ford the expense.

II turns out after all to have been a
happy thought that suggested an in.

sent out by the War department to
select sit for military post an Puget

tons as far as Woodland, in this coun-
ty. The commission have come and
gone, and if dependence can be placed
upon acts and expressions Of the COM
mission while here, we may expect u
report that will place Woodland, the
ideal" point-as expressed by one of
the PARKWAY up, if not at the very
tops of the list of eligible sites.
The commission consisted of Col.
George H. Burton, Inspector General :;
Lieutenant Colonel George H. Rand
all, Capt. Walter S. Fisk, of the
Engineer Corps, and Captain Crosby
P. Miller, Of the Quartermaster Corps.
They were meet by Mayor Aver, A.
H. Chambers, President OF the Board
of Trade, Gen. Boutelle, Col. Owings
and other prominent citizens, and
entertained at the Olympia hotel.
Saturday morning they visited Wood
land, going by train and were brought
in by carriage sent out q few hours
later for that purpose. The Commits.
sion spent the forenoon in thorough
examination Of the grounds which the
city proposes to donate for the pur-
pose if the location is made thereon
by the War Department. They
seemed to be deeply impressed with
their adaptability for the purpose,
and many reasons were discussed that
supported that view.
The Commission has examined
three points at Tacoma. one at Seattle,
two at Port Townsend, one at New
Whatcom, one at Everett and Wood.
land-nine in all-and are said to be
unanimous in the opinion that
Woodland meets all the requirements
! for an army post. 1t is level, the soil
is fine, there is an ample supply OF
excellent water, is on railroad, and
far enough from the Sound to afford
protection from the shells of an invad-
ing man-of-war.
No point examined possesses all
these qualifications. and the commits.
sion being composed Of military men
of reputation, assures fair estimate
being placed upon these advantages.

snn,s Cotton ReTieM

.sNew York, Jan. S.-srhe- Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton advanced 14 points, clos ing steady with sales of s5gOO balesss
 i; sToday's features: Under the influence of more favorable financial news cotton ad- vaYced sharply Wall street was higher aff although consols were at oue time low er,They recovered before the close and there is sN growing impression that serious politi- lNal~ trouble will be averted. On the other shaffd there is an increase of the belief that -the bond issue will be made a success either as a popular loan or through the assistance of syndicate of bankers. Sterling ex- ff hange was lower: the stock market closed Stronger. The receipts at the ports and in- terior towns were light and a good many ''tlscretion is the better, part of valor," ahd covered. Besides there is more or less southern buying, and not only that but some heavy buying by Wall street inter- yfsts. Culbert X Co. bought 10000. The fGerman houses were pretty good buyers. Among the other buyers were Henry 4entz '& Co., Henry Clews & Co, Mcintyre 6 g,os. and Atwood, Violet & Co. MT. Hes- ters figures as to the quantity in sight for the whole cotton belt are in the main re- garded as bullish. Liverpool closed very steady, spot cotton here was stronger, there was no pressure to sell the actual cotton and from the standpoint of the actual sta tistical position the market was regarded as firm. The local shorts took alarm and covered heavily. The local market has be- so much grist for the buIlish mill when 1t relying out started. If the political and financial outlook improves ft is believed that the market will broaden and the out side public will once smoreg come in and help to put up prices.

Chicago Change.

Chicago, Jan. S.-The firmness of the New York stock market this morning and the comparative steady tone on British consols queted the war feeling on the board of trade today, and after short term of ir- regularity prices yielded to heavy profes- sional selling. great mary outside buy ing orders were received early by commis- sion men. Their force was exhausted after time, however, and then the pressure of offerings resulted in weaker feeling. A private cable from Liverpool reported Ar genuine offerings pence higher than a the announcement, but prices soon relapsed into their previous easy condition. May wheat opened at 605s@6lc, sold between 6lls yesterday. Cash wheat sold at an advance of 12c over yesterday, but closed nominaly easy with the futures.
 Corn-The legitimate situation in corn is not such as to permit of any great prob ability of an advance, and when the props were knocked from under wheat, very soon after the opening today, it likewise allow ed corn to drop back from the position as- sumed. There was little in the way of in- formation directly bearing on the market, and, aside from little activity around the opening there was little 10 attract atten- tion in the trade. May corn opened at 2sq closed at 291sq29lAc, A@asc higher than yes- tcrday. Cash corn was l4ql9c higher, clos ing nominally easy.
 Oats-The course of oats was similar to that of corn, with even less activity in the business. Prices were firm early and easy later, the close affordlng no important ad- vantage to either buyers or sellers May bats closed unchanged from yesterday. Cash oats were A@12c per bushel higher.
 Provisions-Outsders were buyers of pro- ~visions as well as of grain today, if the at- titude of commission houses is any indica- tion of the publies course. The strength was lasting the close being with a sub stantial gain in prices all around. The hog market was higher, which fact was en- couraging to purchasers. At the close May pork was soc higher than yesterday, May lard Dc higher and May ribs l24c higher. Domestic markets were quiet but firm.
 The leading futures ranged us follows:
