by the Austrian court. inspired largely by
the great politicians Of Europe, who feared
that he might at some time seek to regain
his fathers empire. Although educated

SUES PURELY LOCAL
Each Party Gains an Alderman, LeaV- ing Republican Majority the Same. Municipal Voters League Did
 Not Show Strength.

Chicago, April 1.-The Republicans and Democrats each made a net gain of one alderman in the city election here today. The new council will consist of thirty nine Republicans, thirty Democrats and one independent. The old council con- sisted of thirty-eight Republicans. twen- ty-nine Democrats and three indepen- dents
 The hottest fight of the campaign was in the First ward, where a determined effort was made by the opponents of John Coughlin, known as Bath House, to de- feat him. It was the only ward in the boiled. Coughlin won easily, securing majority of 2604 votes over David l.. Frank, the Republican candidate.
 The i;sues at stake were entirely local, the only interest outside the ward boun- daries being interjected by the Municipal Voters League, an association formed to bring about, as far as possible, the se- | lection of desirable members Of the city council. irrespective of party. The league recommended thirty-six men, and of these eight were elected.
 In the Southside the Democrats elected the assecsor, collector and clerk by ma ! jorities approximatlng 2000, the Republi- cans electing the supervisor by a ma jority of 1000.
 In the town of Lakeview the Republi- cans elected all the officers by majori- ties running from $500 to 4100 They cleo ted all in the town of Hyde Park by majorities ranging from $500 to $500. They also won a clean victory in the town of Jefferson by majorities averaging 2200. In the west town the Democrats elected by majorities of about 1000 the assessor, collector and supervisor, the Republicans saved the clerk by 100 votes. The Dem ocrats made a clean sweep in the town of Lake the vote being close. The Demo- crats won all the offices in the north town by 1900. The men elected to the offices, collector, clerk and supervisor will never enter upon their duties for the reason that the election which gave them their positions wiped those posi- tions out of existence. The question of abolishing the various town governments was submitted to the people and carried by an overwhelming majority.
 Other questions of public policy were voted upon, among them being municipal ownership of street car systems, gas works and other public utilities and the nomination for candidates by vote of ventions All of these were favorably voted upon.
 None of these votes save that of the | abolishment of the town offices carried | action with it. The vote was very light not over 160000 votes being cast.

PARkEs FINED s5.
Case for Carrying Concealed Weapons
 Goes to Grand Jury.

Maj. W. J. Parkes was yesterday fined $5 by Judge Feagin on a charge of disor- derly conduct and appealed his case on a charge of carrying concealed weapons to the Criminal Court. Lieut.. John Yeat- man was not fined on the charge of dis orderly conduct, as Major Parl<es refused to appear against him. saying he would rather pay the costs than prosecute a personal difficulty in the police court.
 Major Parkes pleaded guilty to dlsor- derly conduct and demanded a warrant on the charge of carrying concealed weapons. This was made out and he de- manded a jury trial.
 The trial was the result of the personal difficulty Saturday night between Lieu tenant Yeatman and Major Parkes in which the former struck at the latter, who made an effort to draw his revolver.
 Major Parkes asked Judge Feagin what the fine would be for carrying concealed weapons and the judge told him s100. as Is always the case. The demand for a jury trial was then made.

ROUTINE BUSINESS.
Nothing Startling to Come Up at the
 Council Meeting Tonight.

The Mayor and Board of Aldermen will meet tonight in regular session. Nothing besides routine matters is expected tc come before the board. It is possible something may be done about cleaning up the city's parks for the summer and some action may be taken to recover the two parks situated on Highland avenue, which the city claims belongs to it, but which are also claimed by the Birming- ham Realty Company. .a
 The committees to which was referred the recommendation of the Mayor that the city should do it's own street cleaning have not taken any definite action on the matter and it is hardly probable that the board will act on it tonight.
