DECIDED FEELING
OF ANNOYANCE

There is decided feeling of an
noyance among members of the
city council over the question of
the water shortage. 1t is just a
year ago since the council ordered
the extensions to proceed, and ap-
propriated half a million dollars to
carry on the work.
Now there is an effort on the
part of the board of public works
and the mayor to attempt to shift
some of the burden for the water
relief delay on to the shoulders of
the city council, and in addition to
disregard the orders of the coun-
Gil in the matter of the immediate
relief of the distress caused by the
shortage, as was done in the case
of the refusal of the board to COM
ply with the order of council cut
ting off automatic sprinkling.
A good portion of last nights
meeting of the city council was
again given over to talk on the
water situation and there was evil
dence of growing lack of patience
on the part of the council. There
is a strong probability that if the
executive department of the city
government continues to ignore the
orders for relief of the water short
age that some more official heads
will fall into the scrap pile before

Alleges That Chicago Tri-

Him.

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-De-
handing an investigation of the
bribery charges in connection with
his election to the United States
senate. William S. Lorimer ap-
reared before the senate today
with an explanation of the case that
blamed the Chicago Tribune.
The resolution demanding an in
vestigation was referred to the COM
mittee on privileges and elections.
In his explanation, Lorimer re-
viewed his % years warfare with
the Chicago Tribune and declared
the paper lied when it made the
charges that his election was the
result of bribery. He denied that
any member of the Illinois legisla-
ture ever received a dollar from
him. He alleged that the attack by
the newspaper was directed not
only at himself personally, but at a
new banking association which he
and his friends are organizing.
He declared that the charges ap-
pearing in the paper and purporting
10 have been written by Charles A.
White, a member of the legislature.

at all. but were the work of a
Grained newspaper man.
1T is plain every word was
aassed upon by a lawyer" he said,
Aefore it was signed by that poor,
Sow creature, White, who does not
hesitate to commit forgery for a
few dollars, and to whom perjury is
no crime"

MILES kELLEHER, PASSENGER
ENGINEER, STARTS BIG SUIT
AGAINST IOWA CENTRAL.
WAS BADLY INJURED BY
BREAKING OF SIDE ROD
Petition Alleges That the Engineer
Was Permanently Disabled
pany Blamed for Furnishing DiIapi-
dated Locomotive - Also Charged
With Hiring incompetent Repairmen.

Miles Kelleher, 2o9 South Third
avenue, one Of the old passenger en-
gineers of the Iowa Central, who was
badly injured about eighteen months
ago when a side rod came loose from
the engine and crashed into the cab,
has filed suit in the district court for
damages of $4,000 because of the in
juries received. The company is
charged with negligence in furnishing
the engineer a locomotive which, it is
alleged, was worn out and dilapidated,
and also for not having it properly in
spected.
The accident happened on Sept %,
1908. While the engine was running at
high rate of speed the side rod on the
engineers side came loose and crashed
thru the cab The petition alleges that
Kelleher was injured internally and in
the side and that one Of his knee caps
was broken. These injuries. the petit
ton declares, have totally incapacitat-
ed him from labor of any kind.
Declares Company Negligent.
The petition says that the locomotive
Kelleher was driving was worn out and
dilapidated and in a bad state of re-
pair, and that it had not been properly
inspected. 1t also says that because of
long use the drive wheels had become
fattened so as to make an extra strain
on the driving rod, which, it Is claimed,
was also worn out.
The company is declared to be negli-
gent for furnishing such an engine and
for failing to properly inspect it, also
for employing alleged incompetent and
careless and reckless men in its SHOPS
and round house whose duties were to
keep the engine in good repair.
The accident in question occurred
during the time when the Iowa Central
machine shops employees were out on a
strike.
