WYOMING MEN FILE PROTEST
Claim Government Has withdrawn
Too Much Land from
settlement.

CHEYENNE, Wyo, March 2s.-(specisl.)
The withdrawal of all Of the irrigable
government lands along the North Platte
river between the mouth OF the Sweetwater
and the Nebraska line has aroused the peo-
pie along the valley OF that stream. The
land has been withheld from settlement
under the provisions Of the recent lrriga-
ton bill and will doubtless remain 30 until
the DEVILS Gate reservoir has been COM
pleted. In all, 10000 acres have thus been
reserved and all development under private
enterprise will be stopped unless definite
surveys are made at an early date defining
the lands to be reclaimed under this pro-
iect.
Many along the Sweetwater river hold
that while the reservoir surveyed by Cap
tain Ch%ittenden may impound a large vol
ume Of water. yet the stream will not
furnish water for the irrigation OF more
tina sc, 700 acres. To withdraw from entry
75O, 900 acres Of lane when only $4,000 can
be irrigated. the people along the Platte
claim is unwarranted. and the matter is to
be brought to the attention Of government
~of1cials at once.

RELIANCE CREW is JEALOUS
Refuses to Allow Constitution Sea-
men TO SIT in Photo
graph.

BRISTOL, r. l., March 29.-Nearly one
half of the crew which is to man Reliance
arrived from New York today. They are
mostly Scandinavtans, rugged, active-look-
ing men who have had years of experience
in racing on the coast. Temporary quar-
tiers for them were found In lodging houses,
but later room Will be provided on the
Barr and the remainder of the crew is ex-
pected here on Friday. The men expressed
anxiety to see the new boat which they are
to man and were much disappointed when
told that the shop was closed on Sunday.
A bit of rivalry cropped out today when a
photographer proposed to take a photo
graph of the men. When he had grouped
them to his fancy 1t developed that a few
of the crew of Constitution were TO be IN
cluded in the picture. This was not to the
liking of the seamen of Reliance, who in
sisted tina their picture should not include
any members of a rival crew. The men are
in charge Of Second Mate George Peter
son. Tomorrow they will begin work bur-
nishing the plates of the underbody.

BoATERs TAKE TITUS BACK
Find Technical Irresularity in Oars
mans Expulsion and Accord
ingIy Rescind Order.

NEW YORK. March 29.-The Union Boat
club today reinstated G. s.. Titus, the oars
man. The club passed a resolution which
recited that there had been an i~rregularity
in his expulsion and adding:
THAT the said expulsion be ~rescinded
solely on the ground of such technical ir-
regularity"
President sinnott Of the club said to-
night:
I'VE want TO be perfectly just in dealing
with Mr.. Titus, but at the same time we do
not concede excellence in Workmanship Is
a sufficient reason of exemption from club
discipline where IL is desirable"
Titus brought suit in the courts to com
pei the club to reinstate him and the mat
ter was to be heard on Tuesday. The
echnical irregularity was that Titus had
only twenty-eight days notice OF a trial
when the constitution requires thirty. The
club wanted TO try him because he had
been talking through the newspapers about
its management instead Of filing formal
complaint with the officials.

COMMERCIAL CLUB LABORS
Several Propositions Which viii Be Brought
to Its Attention.
TWO STATE MEETINGS MAY Be SECURED
Dodge Light Guards Ask Assistance
for Erection of ArmOry in order
to Prevent Being Mus
tered out.

The local lodges of the knights Of Pythias
desire to secure the meeting Of the state
grand lodge of the order for this year for
Council BLUFFS, the Trades and Labor as
sembly is anxious to corral the meeting Of
the State Federation OF Labor for next
year for Council Bluffs and the Dodge
Light Guards are working hard to secure
the necessary funds with which to build an
armory. To all Of these propositions the
Commercial club will be asked this week
to lend it's assistance and give its co-opera-
tion.
The Dodge Light Guards want to erect
an armory which will be at least 100 feet
square. Such a building, exclusive of the
lot, would, II is estimated, cost in the
neighborhood OF SIS, 900. The members OF
the company are satisfied that they can
not raise this sum alone and they realize
that unless the citizens Of Council Bluffs
come to their assistance the company will
be ~disbanded. 1t has been suggested tina
a mass meeting be called under the auspices
of the Commercial club to meet at the
opera house or in some other public hall
and the matter be laid before the people
by prominent speakers in an effort to Sc
cure subscriptions to the stock necessary
to carry the enterprise through.
The delegates from the Trades and Labor
assembly to the meeting Of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor at Davenport, in May,
believe that with a proper showing being
made Council Bluffs would stand an ex-
cellent chance Of securing the meeting for
1904. The Commercial club will be asked
to cooperate and It has been suggested
that Commissioner Loomis the
delegates to Davenport and as the official
representative Of the Commercial club in
vite the State Federation to hold it's meet
ing In 1904 in Council Bluffs.
To secure the meeting Of the Iowa grand
lodge, Knights OF Pythias, and the encamp-
ment Of the uniform rank this summer
for Council Bluffs It would be necessary
to raise about 81, 900 and provide camping
grounds. The local lodges and the uniform
rank company will ask the Commercial
club to assist them in guaranteeing this
sum and thus enable them to be In q
position to invite the meeting here. II
is estimated that the meeting of the grand
lodge and it's auxiliary bodies. together
with the encampment of the uniformed
rank would bring in the neighborhood Of
5000 visitors to the city for the greater
part Of a week. o. NJ. Gillett of hide
pendence. grand chancellor Of the knights
! Of Pythias Of Iowa, has written c. A. lib.
bits OF this city hat the meeting place fol
this year will be decided upon soon and
that II Council Bluffs wants the meeting
1t will receive due consideration.
Chairman Van Brunt is expected to cal
a special meeting Of the executive com.
mittee early this week to consider these
matters.

TELEPHONE QUESTION TONIGHT
Both Independent Companies VIII BE
Before h City Council for
franchise.

DR.. Don Macrae, tr., and T. D. Metcalf
Of the Western Iowa Independent Tele-
phone, Telegraph and Terminal company
returned yesterday from Chicago, where
they have been investigating the independ-
ent telephone system Of that city and Sc
curing information on the telephone busi-
ness in general. The city council will meet
tonight as a committee Of the whole to
consider the propositions for franchises
made by DR.. Macrae's company and the
Council Bluffs Independent Telephone
company, headed by H. H.. Van Brunt.
'"rhe Western iowa Independent Tele-
phone company is still In the field for a
franchise" was the statement Of DR.. Mac
rae and Mr.. Metcalf on their return from
Chicago yesterday. They said further that
as a result OF their trip to the Windy city
they were, they believed, now in a posi-
tion to meet any questions that might
be propounded to them by the aldermen.
Their company. as Incorporated, is cap
italized at $40, 900, but DR.. Macrae stated
yesterday that II necessary they were In a
position to increase this to 500, 900 or even
more.
So far the proposition Of the Western Iowa
Independent company has related solely
! to the installation of a toll system to con-
meet Council Bluffs with the independent
companies now operating in this section OF
the state, but both DR.. Macrae and Mr..
Metcalf said yesterday that their company
was prepared II required by the city council
to establish a local independent telephone
system for the city as well.
The plan OF the Western Iowa company
was TO simply establish a central station for
the toll system and not a telephone ex-
change. On the other hand the Council
Bluffs Independent company proposed to
install a local independent system with an
exchange and II denied a franchise by the
city council, its officers state they will
go before the people with their ordinance
Many OF the aldermen have expressed
themselves as opposed to having two local
telephone companies in the city, but are
willing to grant a franchise for a toll sys-
tenn which would AFFORD the desired connec'
tion for Council Bluffs with the independent
hcompanies operating in southwestern Iowa
From statements made by several Of the
aldermen It is not thought that either
OF the ordinances in their present shape
will be approved by the city council.
