A SAVING
BY the Passage of Ordinance to
Issue New Bonds.

owing to the lateness of the hour
when the ordinance for the refunding
bonds was brought up Tuesday even
ing, Council decided to hold an ad-
journed session wednesday evening
for the consideration of that ordin-
ance.
The ordinance referred to is for the
issue and sale of negotiable coupon
bonds to the amount of 100000, bearv
ing date January 1, 1900, and due jan
uary 1, 1920, bearing interest at 3h
per cent per annum.
AT the time the water works were
burt in 1889, bonds to the amount of
$4,000 were issued which could be
taken up after ten years, and which
must be paid within thirty years.
These bonds bore interest at the rate
of Az per cent. Now that the ten
years have about expired, an offer has
been made to take up 100000 worth Of
refunding bonds at 3h per cent and
the ordinance is for the purpose of is
suing such bonds.

exception of Curtis and Lambert. was

The Store of ChicagO's Noted
Book Dealers
Is Completely Destroyed by Fire
With Its Contents.
A LOSS OF $65O,OOO.
They Carried the Largest Num-
ber of Old Books
And Manuscripts in the Country
Outside the Libraries.

Chicago, Feb. 13.-The five-story brick
building at the northwest corner of Wa
bash avenue and Madison street, occu-
pied by the book and stationery firm of
A. c. McCIurg & Co., was, with it's con-
tents, totally destroyed by fire Sunday,
entailing a loss of nearly $650,0 OF
which $4,000 was on the stock. Nc
Clurg & Co. carried one of the largest
stocks of rare old books and manuscripts
outside of the great libraries. including
many volumes which can not be re-
placed. All these were lost. The fire
was started by an explosion of gas
which leaked from a pipe on the third
floor and spread with anna zing rapidity.
Before the first engine arrived, flames
were pouring from the second, third
and fourth story windows, and in a
very short time the floors commenced
to fall in and the walls to bulge.
The firemen from the first had no
hope of saving the building and directed
their efforts to preventing the flames
spreading to Mandel Bros dry goods
store, across the alley. Considerable
difficulty was experienced by them at
first on account of the low water pres
sure, many of the hydrants being partly
frozen up, and it was nearly twenty
minutes after the fire broke out before
the pressure was great enough to carry
the streams to the third story. To add
to the difficulty of the situation, the
temperature was several degrees below
zero and a bitter north wind was blow
ing. Many of the hrernen were severe
1y frost bitten. About two hours after
the fire started the Madison street wall
fell out, tons of red hot bricks crashing
into the street, and breaking many large
plate glass windows the opposite
side. Several of the firemen had mar
row escapes from being caught.
Mandel. Bros. suffered loss of about
$10,0 900, chiefly from water, their base
ment being flooded. Other losses, con-
sisting Of broken plate glass and dam
age by smoke and water, will probably
amount to $500. McClurg's stock was
insured for about $3.50 600.

DODGING THE ISSUE.
Friends of the Waterworks Show
Their Hands in the Mayor Fight.

The opposition to Mr.. Drew is trying
its best to divert the issue from the
water works question to something
else. Mr.. Brooks has been nicely treat
ed by his opponents. He has been given
credit for being a very nice sort of
gentleman; but he certainly has been
both sides of the water works ques-
ton the past month. What the Journal
said on this subject was substantiated
by a well known citizen whose name
was given and the statement was SIM
ply unanswerable.
The Journal fails to see why the op-
position to Mr.. Drew should attack the
present city administration There is
only one reason for it and that is that
the present mayor and council have
been practically a unit on the subject
of securing the city ownership of the
water works plant and in efforts to pro-
vide the people with water, plenty of it
and at reasonable rates.
Mr.. Fellows conduct of the office of
mayor in cooperation with his council
has made a good record for Topeka.
One of the best ever made. Why it
should be attacked now is certainly
without cause, unless it be through
fear that the influence of the present
administration will carry out the plans
of the present city authorities.
Whatever abuse may be heaped upon
the Journal the Journal can probably
stand inasmuch as it knows it is right
this water works question, and there
is no reason why it should express itself
in favor of Mr.. Drew when so good
man as he is a candidate for the Office.
The issue in this campaign is the
water works one, and no amount of
abuse of the Journal or reflection on
Mr.. Drew and the present city admin
istration should divert the voters.
Mr.. Drew may be unfortunate in not
having the support of the morning
paper but when the fact is considered
that he has been a partisan of city
ownership of the water works and his
has always been cast in opposition to
the water company and for the people
of Topeka, it is not difficult to under
stand the motive for the opposition to
managed the water works bond election
for the water company and that he
failed was no fault of his.
The people should be wide awake. A
hundred different plans will be put in
operation to divert their attention to
other issues. But the effort to arouse
partiSanShip is one of the most absurd
yet attempted. Mr.. Drew has been one
of the Staunch Republicans of Topeka
for twenty-five years. He has never
wavered in his loyalty, and his position
on the water works question does not
affect his standing as a Repub blican
with the people of Topeka, though it
may with the friends of the water COM
pany.
Councilman Drew has never held fat
office. He worked with his trowel while
Frank Brooks enjoyed the fruits of po-
litical preferment in the renunerative
position of register of deeds. He has
served four years as a member of the
city council when the compensation was
trifling and has always stood for the
best interests of the city. He has been
that the administration of the affairs of
the city will be safe in his hands.

ENCASED IN ice.
The Fuerst Bismarck Arrives
After TempestuOus Passage.

New York, Feb. 13.-The Hamburg
American line steamer Fuerst Bismarck
arrived Saturday from Genoa after the
longest passage the steamer ever made
across the Atlantic and one of the
toughest in the experience of her Off
GERS. The voyage from Gibraltar to
New York was made in twelve days and
seven hours. Terrific gales were encoun-
tered from February L to z, enormous
seas frequently sweeping over the YES
sci smashing rails, doors and other
woodwork. Several ventilators were
swept overheard and two boats were
carried from their chocks. On February
8, Otto Lohse, a sailor, was washed over
board and lost. For five days the great
steamer rolled violently and labored
heavily until the decks were flooded and
many of the passengers were violently
ill. On approaching the coast intensely
cold weather was met and the spray
froze as it fell, covering the hull, boats
and rigging far up the masts with a
heavy coating of ice.
The Fuerst Bismarck appeared Hike
veritable iceberg, The outer gangways
were so laden withaice that they appear
ed like tunnels through some ice cave
with enormous ieleies hanging from the
decks above. The bulwarks and rails
were Swelled to enormous proportions
while the bridges were one solid mass.
The crew had to break the ice from the
decks and gangwayS in order to land
the passengers.

TWO WOMEN FROZEN
And Two Mail Carriers Believed to
Have Perished in New York.

New, York, Feb. 19-Mary Goodwyn of
Brooklyn; aged 80 years, was, frozen to
was found frozen to death in hallway
on Forty-SeVenth street in this city Sun
day morning. She was thinly clad and
had evidently sought shelter from the
storm
Fears are entertained that Mail Carriers
Palmer and Hawkins of the New York of
flee have been drowned. The two men
left Harts island for City island on Thurs
day morning to deliver the mails. They
were in a small boat and the high wind
that was blowing and the floating ice made
it impossible for them to control their
craft. Six men in larger boat vino at
tempted to rescue them were unable to
do so, and it IS feared that the light boat
was carried off into the sound and perhaps
crushed overturned.
