Engage the Attention OF the City
Councils Special Meeting.
ALDERMEN AND MAYOR
CLASH IN EFFORTS TO SETTLE
DISPUTED POINTS, SAY
YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER"

A special meeting of the city council
was held last night, for general bust
ness. and the proceedings proved
to be quite interesting to tn
spectator. because Of several little tits
between aldermen and the mayor, over
matters of more or less general con
Germ. His honor was present and also
thirteen aldermen-all but Alderman
Hasenjaeger, and the proceedings in
detail were about as follows:
Committee on police. Jail and fire
department recommended that a chute
be constructed at fire station No. .,
for the care Of hose; that bursted fire
hose be sent back to companies from
whom il was bought, with request that
il be replaced by new hose as per CON
tracts, and that Jos. Solomon be grant
ed license for junk shop upon his
promise that he will not locate It at
Tenth ana Poplar streets.
All the recommendations were con.
CURED in by the council, the last nam
cd. however, creating some debate as
to the value of petitioners promise not
to start his shop in the location object
ed to. in which il was developed
through the city attorney, that if the
license was granted, in the absence
of an ordinance on the subject. there
could be no restriction as to petit
tioner's privilege to locate his business
in the place where objection had been
raised. It was agreed by the council
that license should be granted to Sol
onion on his promise.
While the council was considering
the committees recommendation re-
garding a chute for the care of the
new fire hose (which the mayor stated
had been shipped by the Chicago
Fire Hose Coz. Alderman Fuller
sought TO have the bond read. which
the company had given as guarantee
that the hose would give the service
promised. as condition of its pur-
chase by the city. The mayor ruled
him out of order. on the ground that
the request was foreign to the subject
under consideration. The motion be-
ing disposed of. the alderman again re-
newed his request that the bond he
read which was done
Alderman Wood expressed his belief
that the bond was ambiguous and eva
siye. but was assured by the city at

BIG PASSENGER
 VESSEL IS ASHORE
FIVE TUGS WORK PERIODICALLY TO PULL OFF THE BRITISH STEAMSHIP SIClLlAN PRINCE. VESSEL RESTS EASILY.

New York, November 20.-Capt. Van Wyeklen of the Long Branch, L. l., life saving station reports that the British steamship Sicilian Prince, from Mar seilles. Naples and Palermo, for New York, with 612 persons aboard, went ashore at o'clock this morning about half a mile west of the life-saving sta ton. The steamer lies In an easy position. The sea is smooth the wind calm and the atmosphere smoky.
 Five tugs, two of them wreckers, are on the scene, and are waiting for high tide, when an attempt will be made to pull the Sicilian Prince off.
 At o'clock tonight 1t was reported from Long Branch that tugs had suc- ceeded in moving the Sicilian Prince some distance, but she was not clear. Reports indicated that there was little hope of getting the steamship into deep water to- night. Efforts will be continued at high tide at 5:30 tomorrow morning.
 Fire Island reports tonight that 1t has been hazy off shore all day with slight westerly winds A moderate sea Is run ming.
 The Sicilian Prince went ashore shortly before the tide had reached it's height. about clock this morning, so that only at high water are the tugs able to move her.

not interfere with the Japanese fire against the Russian warships. He further says that the Japanese, who use balloons to direct their fire, and who drop tneir shells with minute accuracy into the harbor, cannot mistake the hospital ships and he charges that these dehoerately drive the wounded from ships for fear or sinking the vessels.
 This occurred recently" said General Balashoff, "hut earlier noticed m stances of a concentration of fire on DOT tions of the town devoted almost exclu- sively to hospital ships.
 Other instances of uncivilized wartare are numerous, but I have no time to write of them. I scarcely have time to eat and sleep"
 General Balashoff requests that his let ter serve as protest to the world against the tactics of the Japs. As an illustration of the difficulty of communicating with Port Arthur, it is learned that of six duplicate letters which were sent from Che Foo to General Balashoff by various sources. only one reached him.
