Approaching the vast benefit to be
derived from good water and plenty
of it, most of the people on Pitkin
mesa together with A. S. Stratton
and Fred Curtis, have combined into
a company to pipe the water from
Cold Spring, four miles up Stevens
gulch, down to their places. The
estimated cost is $4,000 and under
the proposed plan they will have
oceans OF the purest water together
with good pressure for fire pro-
lection. The move is one OF the
most important for the improvement
OF Pitkin mesa that has yet been
suggested and THE NEWSPAPER con-
graduates the movers on their fore
sight. When completed the value
of the lands served by the utility will
be increased far more than the same
cost even should the investment be
doubled.

Board Of Aldermen to Consider
IL at TOnight's Meeting.
II Is Expected That Speeches Will
BE Made by Some Of Those Who
Object to the Ordinance.
THE NEW BRIDGE PROPOSITION

The board OF aldermen will meet
tonight In regular session. and has
a good deal OF business of import
ance to transact. The ordinance Civ
ing the general council authority to
et a contract for street lights will
come up for action, and will. from in
dicatlons. be passed. This ordinance
is the first step toward giving the
city authority to make contract
with the street car company for street
lights, and was brought up in the
council Monday night. and referred
by that board to the aldermanic
board.
There were a number OF people
who are opposed 10 the contract at
the council meeting to protest against
It's adoption, and they will be at the

son.o addresses will be made by their
Spokesman.

nents. will meet at o'clock this az
ternoon with Manager Bleecker OF

the new bridge proposed for Island
creek at Fourth street. and the COM
mittee may bring in report on it
tonight.
IL Is proposed TO build. now, n
structure to cost about s2S,000. but
this depends on what the street car
company will do. Manager Bleecker
said today he was not in a position
TO say how much of the expense his
company would bear, and would no.
be until he saw and conferred with
the city officials and learned what
they proposed to do.
Some members of the council are
citing the bridge at Fourth street as
another evidence of how the crowd
that has been running things in Pa
ducah for years past has neglected
and abused them. "That bridge
should be in good condition today,
and new one unnecessary. II IL
had received the proper attention.
said a councilman today. But 1t Is

Resigned in a BODY.

Paris March S.--After an excit-
ing debate in the deputies relative to
the church inventories, which lasted
until late last evening. the Rouvier
ministry was defeated by a vote OF
237 against 234. The ministry de-
cided to offer its resignation to Pres
ident Fallieres.
President Fallleres accepted the
resignation and announced his in
tention of consulting the presidents
of the senate and deputies today rel
alive to abe formation of a new cabi-
net.
The debate in the deputies was up
on a riot during the taking of an in
ventory of a church in Boeschepe re-
sulting in the death of a manifest
ant.
Various orators severely criticiz-
ed the governments course, assert
ing it threatened to precipitate a reli-
gious warfare.
Premier Rouvier responded: Tine
government has duty to apply the
laws. II will aFplyait without weak
ness, but also with prudence, tact
and wisd IN consistent with public.
tranquility. | ask the adoption of
resolution approving these declara-
tons of the government"
The resolution was thereupon put
to a vote and defeated. The vote was
more expressive of personal antago-
nism to the ministry than of opposi-
ton to the church inventories.
The cabinet crisis comes at a most
dramatic moment. when the Franco
German contest has reached a deci-
sive stage and may exert an import
ant adverse influence on the Algeci-
ras conference and on European af-
fairs.

hardly probable.
''The ordinance brought in to cut
the force will be invalid now, should
it pass" said City Solicitor James
Campbell. Jr.. today.

Campbell's declaration.

but DO know what | think" he re-
Piled. 'we have already made our
appropriation for the police force
this year, and as directed by the
charter. made the appropriation as
near what we thought sufficient for
this year as We could. We did not
know this bill was coming up. 1t
was an act of spite, revenge and
graft, anyway. In view of having
made the appropriation already for
this year, | don't think the bill can
affect us this year"
1t has been suggested that the
council could bring in an ordinance
increasing the number of police to-
so, as required by the new law, and
not increase the appropriation, and
the police commissioners would have
to cut the salaries, but there is Az
ordinance on the books which was
passed in 1901 fixing the police SAL
cries as at present, $50 month, but
of course this can be repealed at any
time.
1t looks, however, as If there will
be litigation over the matter, as the
commissioners will probably appoint
80 men and not reduce the salaries
and when the appropriation runs out
the police may sue for their salaries.

A SHORT SENTENCE
FOR THE MURDERESs
She is Expected in Return t.
Expose the Police.
Bertha Claiche is Expected to Get
Not More Than Five Years In
Sing Sing Prison.
THE DEAL MADE WITH JEROME.

New York, Mar. s.-Borne aloft
on the shoulders of two deputy sher-
IFS stiff and rigid as log, her hair
hanging in a matted mass from her
head, her lips bloodstained, and ex-
uding froth, while her low agonized
means rang hollow through the
crowded room Bertha Claiche was
carried through the door of the SUI
preme court chamber to the jury
room outside, and the curtain fell
on one of the most dramatic scenes
ever witnessed in a court of justice.
Fifteen minutes before the pallid
prisoner of the Tenderloin had en-
tered plea of guilty of manslaugh-
ter in the second degree AT the last
minute Lawyers Levy and Rosalsky
reached an agreement with Jerome.
The case was taken out of the hands
of the jury. and Bertha Claiche's life
was given her in exchange for the
story she can tell of police corrup-
ton in the Tenderloin.
But one act more of the sordid
tragedy remains to be presented. On
the 29th instant the girl will be
sentenced. There is ample assur-
ance that her punishment will be
light. for between now and then the
prisoner will tell to Jerome the sto-
ry she was spared from telling be-
fore the gaping crowd in the court
room.
There will be a police investiga-
ton. Today's action insures this
much, for Police Commissioner Bing-
ham and the men who appointed hilI
viii be forced to take cognizance of
the criminal dealings of the police
which the revolving story of this mis-
cradle girl will expose to the public
gaze.
Az the opening of the defense
former Judge Rosalsky charged a
police conspiracy to send Bertha
Claiche to the electric chair to save
the positions OF officers whose deal
ings she could expose. Her life
against their official heads became
the slogan of the defense. At the
critical hour of the trial the PROPOSE
ton took concrete form and Jerome
entered the most dramatic game ever
played-the life of a fallen woman
against the police department in the
greatest city on the American conti-
nent.
Bertha Claiche won, although the
victory is somewhat in the nature of
compromise. She energies from
the shadow of the electric chair to
spend perhaps five years in prison.
The police department faces a humil-
iating exposure of corrupt bargain
ing with vice and crime on a basis
of cold cash.
