PROBABLY FALSE ALARM
UNABLE TO FIND
FIGHTERS AT NEWPORT.

Sheriff. G. w. Smith, of Washington
county, called on Gov. Lind yesterday re-
garding the prizefght scheduled to take
place at Newport this morning. The gov
ernor is quite in the dark as to the plans
for the reported fight and Sheriff Smith
was able during the day to secure but lit
tie information upon the subject.
If the local bruisers who are matched to
try conclusions in the roped arena really
want TO fight they will have to go to
some place other than Newport or Red
Rock, as Sheriff Smith Is determined that
the fight shall not, take place.. and -in
this he has the cooperation OF Gov Lind.
In fact the governor is willing to lend the
sheriff. the state militia if necessary. but
this will hardly be called for, as 1t was
given out around town yesterday that the
fight was off.

VOTE OF SIXTEEN TO ONE
PASSED THE $4,000 APPROPRIATION
ORDINANCE IN CITY COUNCIL.
Mr.. Evans Was Against the Ordinance
and Declared the Action
an Outrage.

The appropriation ordinance authorizing
a loan of 1900 to meet the current debts
OF the Democratic administration was
passed at the special meeting of the Coun-
Gil last night by a vote of Is to 1, Council
man Evans being the only one to vote
against 1t. Daller, Keller. Megrew and
Wheeler were absent.
The finance committee, or, rather. part
OF the committee, considered the ordinance
at a meeting Wednesday night and decided
to make a favorable report. Councilman
Evans did not sign the report. AS only
three members of the committee signed the
report, there not being a majority of the
committee. report was not submitted to
the Council last night, but on motion of
Councilman Billingsley the ordinance was
withdrawn from the committee TO be acted
upon by the Council. liz was read the sec
ond time, and, on motion of Councilman
Bernauer, was engrossed, read the third
time and placed on its passage.
Councilman Evans, in explaining his
negative vote, said there was no need of
''railroading' the ordinance through the
Council, and he declared it was out
rage to pass the appropriation at this time,
after the city controller had declared the
money was not needed at once. Other
councilmen In explaining their votes said
the city should be provided with money
to pay its debts due on Sept. 1 and thus
prevent the citizens from suffering through
the extravaganza of the city administra-
ton.
The $4,000 appropriated last night brings
the aggregate appropriated for city eX-
penses within the last few weeks to a little
pay the current expenses of the city ad-
ulinistratiOn.

smoke consumers placed in their establish

assert that they will not do so until the or

factories said they would use the con-
sumers If Mr.. Bedell would recommend one
TO meet the requirements This Mr.. Be
