A "protracted meeting" was held

cd until 1880 a. m. A great amount
of business was transacted and the

council to complete, of any which
have been held in Lewistown.
The final results of the meeting may
be briefly stated: Peter Tus was

Mrs. Shields was offered arbitration

Meeting Saturday NIGHT.

A special meeting OF the council was
held Saturday evening for the opening
of bids for cement and for considera-
ton Of other water works matters.
Beside the mayor, clerk and attorney.
Alderman %Stoddard, Eldridge. Symmes
and Laux appeared.
Three cement bids we're received.
]. l.. Stuart offered 80 barrels. more
or less, of Lehigh-Portland cement at
S62S; the Montana Hardware Co, of.
fered 80 barrels, more or less, of Ger
man -Portland cement at 81 per bar
rel or they would furnish 1t in lieu
thereof such proportion of Lehigh-
Portland cement as they had on hand
at the same figure. The Judith Hard
ware Co. offered their present small
stock of Lehigh-P Portland cement at
81 per barrel and the residue or all
of the 80 barrels of certain designated
German brands at $3.50 per barrel.
The bid of the Montana Hardware
Co. was clearly the lowest. but Alder.
man Stoddard contended that the Mon
tana Hardware Co. had not designated
the brand of cement they would fur
nish and that they could not furnish
a good brand at that figure. Tedious
discussion ensued, the prevailing opin-
ion being that the Lehigh- Portland
brand was the best and all OF that
which was in town should be secured.
The motion, finally made by Alder
man Symmes and adopted, was to the
effect that the bids of the Montana
and Judith Hardware Co. should each
be accepted as to the Lehigh cement
and that the remainder desired should
be taken from the Montana Hardware
at the figure stated in bid, providing
brand was satisfactory to the engineer.
Mayor Cook reported that Edward
Quigley. heretofore awarded the con.
tract for reservoir. had neither sign
ed contract or furnished bond. Alder
men Laux and Symmes said they I'M
derstood that the contractor would
comply with the requirements Mon
| day and the matter went over.
The mayor also reported trouble
With Mrs. Peter Shields concerning
riglt-of.way across her land for water
pipes. Some months ago, while Peter
Shields was a member Of the council.

of the Montana Hardware Co. stated
he would endeavor to have enough
additional Lehigh cement here by the
time It was needed.
Alderman Eldridge directed atten-
ton to the continual expense for
street work. Notwithstanding there
was no money to meet the obligation
and Commissioner Kane came in for
censure. Symmes moved that no more
work be done except upon authority
of the street and alley committee and
il was so ordered. Earlier in the ev.
ening Alderman Stoddard had put a
similar ~stoppage to printing bills. the
chairman Of the printing committee
to hold the veto power.
Upon several occasions during the
past month and more there have been
reported to the council violations of
the building ordinance and last Sat.
urday Alderman Laux stated he would
investigate some of the charges made.
The most fragrant violation has been
in the Ease of the new Woodman
stable on JaneauX street. ule atten.
ton of both Mr.. Woodman and his
builder having been repeatedly called
~ tho nrOvivfnnv Of tho nraf,an,,
from the time work first commenced.
Another repeated violation was the
building of a frame addition to a
stable by c. e. Wright and also a sec
ond offense by NJ. l.. Woodman in the
repairing for occupancy Of the small
building occupied by Burleson Bros.
prior to the fire of last winter.
Last evening the subject was again
precipitated by the application made
by E. A. Howatt for a permit to erect
a machine shop within the fire limits
but not in strict accordance with the
ordinance. Alderman Laux of the
building committee seemed disposed
to permit the violation and also to
avoid the entailing of any hardship
upon Mr.. Woodman, il appearing that
Mr.. Woodman had interviewed Mr..
Laux at Kendall, some time since.
and secured some sort OF reply which
might be raised in excuse. The city
attorney advised the council that they
could not legally grant a permit to
erect anything but a fire proof build
ing while the ordinance remained in
force and Mr.. Symmes favored treat
ing all people alike and that IL the
buildings had been erected In defiance
of the law that the owners should be
made to suffer the penalty. The sub
ject was exhaustively discussed and
it being ascertained that the ordi-
nance provided adequate remedy to
cover all offenses Mr.. Symmes moved
that the city marshal be instructed
to enforce its provisions. The motion
prevailed without dissent. II the pur-
pose of that motion be carried into
effect such buildings or portions of
buildings which do not comply with
the definition of fire proof buildings
will have to be at once replaced by
the owners or disposed of by the mar.
shall, the same as any other nuisance.
At 1890 a. m. the council adjourn.

LAUx THREATENS TO RESIGN
Fight Over Appointment Of inspector
on Water Works-Building ordi-
nance to be Enforced.

Before the expiration of the time
limit granted Mrs. Shields to accept
or reject the councils offer of arbitra-
tion, the lady had consented and an
agreement had been prepared and
subscribed to by the parties. This
necessitated another council meeting
last evening. at which the same Off
cers and aldermen were present as
the evening before. BY unanimous
vote George M. Stone was chosen as
arbitrator on behalf of the city and,
being communicated with, the gen.
tleman accepted, though unwillingly.
Engineer Stafford announced the ap-
pointment of II. F. Schultz as inspec.
tor. Mr.. Schultz was the man about
whom the controversy had arisen the
previous evening and the announce
ment precipitated a considerable row.
1t was moved by Mr.. Symmes and
seconded by Mr.. Stoddard that the
vote by which the resolution relative
to the employment of an inspector
was adopted Monday night, be recon
sidered. No opposition developed and
the motion prevailed. Alderman Stod-
dard then moved to amend his motion,
striking out that portion requiring the
inspector to be a taxpayer upon real
property in the city. Laux hereupon
began to buck" and said he guessed
he would withdraw, which would have
broken a quorum. The others prevail
ed upon him to remain and S~toddard's
motion being seconded by Symmes 1t
was passed three to one.
Mr.. Laux charged that Schultz was
prejudiced against the contractor and
not disposed to be fair, that some other
Ia should be secured and altogether
opposed to the action already taken
and to confirmation of the engineers
appointee. The mayor contendel
Schultz was competent, a fair man and
challenged Mr.. Laux to suggest the
name of some n else. Alderman
Eldridge suggested that Mr.. Laux
might take it himself. Mr.. Symmes
said that the council intended hold
ing the city engineer responsible and
that they must either work in harmony
with the engineer, unless the latter's
action were altogether untenable, OIL
accept his resignation. and he beliey'
ed that to do the latter would be a
mistake. The mayor stated the re.
quirements necessary to hold the
place of the city engineer. Nh. Laux
was very obdurate and several times
threatened to resign. He did not,
however, and Schultz was confirmed
by the votes of all save Laux.

The Revival of Coral

The revival of coral in all forms Of
ewelry which began about two years
lgo, has now become more pronounced
N view of the fact that Paris has late
" confirmed the choice of the material
lor purposes of adornment. Cheap
mutations of celluloid caused the al
most total extinction of coral for thirty
years or more, and many of the old
established firms of jewellers have re-
emily taken large quantities of it
from safes and vaults where they have
remained to await the long delayed re-
urn to POPULARITY.
I Coral is now popular because 1t is
scarce, because it is being much worn
n Paris and because the number OF
,arved pieces in the United States is
United, and there is none being i'm
ported for the simple reason that coral
Nowadays is not being carved any
more. All of the coral imported into
he United States comes from Italy
and when the demand for carved pieces
lseased in the COS the Italian manufact
lrers ceased to make them. The re
suit is a lost industry. There is not &

of Germany and Great Britain, and
upon your request to give our opinions
In writing, we address you in the fol-
lowing terms:
"In view Of the acts of violence al
ready committed and of the absolute
impotence of Venezuela to meet force
with force in response to the allied
action Of Germany and Great Britain,
in view of the fact that Venezuela has
exhausted all the means required by
civilization and diplomacy TO put an
end to the present situation, and the
government and people Of Venezuela
having complied honorably and worth
lily to the demands Of national honor
we consider, with all due respect, thai
the moment to yield to force has ar
rived.
I'VE, therefore, respectfully recon
mend that full powers be given to the
minister of the United States Of Nortl
America, authorizing him to carry ou
proper measures to terminate the pres
ent conflict in the manner least preiu
dicial to the interests of Venezuela.
