COMMITTEE MEETING.
Sewer and Street and Alley Committees
Ready for To-Night's Council Meeting.


Ready for To-Night's Council Meeting.
Preparatory to to-nights council
meeting, the committee meetings were
held yesterday afternoon. The sewer
committee met at 2 o'clock and decided
to ask for further time on the petition
OF BERT Bros. in regard to the extern
sion of the sewer in the suburbs where
his ranch is located. The petition of
Nelson Storey was placed on file. In
regard to the claim of Manuel Fairchild
for damages on West Copper street, it
was decided that the claim be not al
lowed. The same disposition was made
of the claim of William Thompson. The
claim of w. J. Nuderville for rebate
on sewer tax was allowed. Further time
was asked on the request for an extern
sion of the sanitary sewer from the
Butte Reduction works onward. In re-
gard to the petition of Lienneman g.
Schmidt, asking the city to take their
private sewer off their hands, it was
decided to accept the sewer, provided
the firm would first put the sewer in
good condition.
The street and alley committee also
met yesterday afternoon. Contractor
Dugan's bill was first considered. He
asked for recompense for paving stones
which had been used by the city. 1t
was finally decided to recommend that
Mr.. Dugan should be paid s95, being
800 less than the original bill, on ac-
count of the fact that the city had
hauled the blocks off the streets. 1t
was decided to disallow the bill of Law
renee Doyle for $500 for damages al
legged to have been sustained from fall
ing into an excavation between Ohio
and Covert streets. 1t was decided to
allow the petition of D. James to raise
his sidewalk on Dakota street south of
Iron.

killed r. Marion Wiley, near
Pleasant Grove, Pa, on Tuesday
night of last week, went to Ian
caster and gave himself up to the
authorities.
Before Wiley died, on Wednes,
day afternoon, he made the follow
ing ante norton statement to
Justice of the Peace David A.
Brown:
|, Marion Wiley, son of Rankin
Wiley, aged 10 years, do declare
that on the evening of July u (the
boy was mistaken, it should have
been July 10 as |, in company
with John Will, was returning from
a neighbours where we were taking
some pigeons, passing Edward j.
Brogan's residence, his dog barked
furiously. | said to John Will to
toss a stone at him, or he would be
out after us. John Will tossed a
stone at the dog; we then went on
towards home; after being 40 yards
away | was shot and fell to the
ground.
Affirmed before me, a Justice of
the Peace in and for the county of
Lancaster, July ~, 1899.
DAVIS A. BROWN.
Justice of Peace.
The weapon used by Brogan was
a Winchester rifle and shot Il 32
calibre bullet.
Judging from the course of the
bullet Brogan must have fired the
shot from his bedroom. Beneath
the raised window sash there was a
screen and through it the bullet
passed, then through the porch rail
and among trees In the yard.
Rankin Wiley is farmer and
enjoys the confidence and esteem of
his neighbors. He has four sons
and five daughters and this was the
