Americas First Citizen Takes Up
Duties in New York.
RENTS ELEGANT OFFICE SUITE
Former President Begins Life rs
Journalist with Crowd Mt
Heels wherever He
Goes.

NEW YORK, June I.-Theodore Roose-
welt began yesterday the life he has chosen
for himself as a private citizen. He has his
own ideas Of what the country shall do
with its eX-presidents, and after single
day of rest at Sycamore Hill, took up his
work today as contributing editor OF the
outlook. Not even the fact that his son
was TO be married this Afternoon detained
him from his desk.
The dispatch boat Dolphin, on which Mr..
Roosevelt left oyster Bay late last night
with Secretary Of the Navy Meyer as his
host brought him into New York early
this morning. lie went direct to his office
and Immediately plunged into the mountain
of correspondence that has been &C
cumulating for him. Two hours later he
appeared on the street and was Immediately
recognized by the crowds Before he had
walked half block westward toward Fifth
avenue, he was followed by throng that
blocked the sidewalk.
The sun was beating down with an in
tensity that made top hat uncomfortable.
The colonel plunged for a halter at a
speed that made the crowd behind run to
keep up AS he passed the offices Of the
publishing house that will bring out his

That's dandy, isn't it?" was his com
ment A halter was close BY. 1t took the
colonel just two minutes to buy a wide
brimmed straw hat with black band. Then
he footed it at the same amazing speed to
his office again.
Editor RoOsevelt's business headquarters
hereafter will be on the seventh floor of
the United Charities building at Fourth
avenue and Twenty-second street where
a suite OF three rooms has been specially
engaged for him.
On the entrance door appears the legend
in big gilt letters, "office Of Theodore
Roosevelt"
The rooms themselves, although business
like in appearance, are furnished with a
magnificence unusual for an office building.
The suite comprises a room for Mr. Roose-
velt's secretary, a room in which visitors
will wait and Mr.. Roosevelt's own room,
large and airy, fronting on Fourth avenue.
The walls are newly covered with bronze
burlap. The furniture is of mahogany and
the desk is a reproduction of George Wash
ington's desk at Mount Vernon. A rich
rug Of tan, green and dull pink covers the
polished parquetry of the floor. Pictures
of Washington. Lincoln and copy OF the
Declaration of Independence, written large
in an old English characters, hang on the
bronze burlap.
II It should prove that visitors are toe
insistent there is an auxiliary exit by
which Editor Roosevelt may escape through
hidden hall to the street.
After his mornings work in his new Of
fices, Mr.. Roosevelt went for luncheon &c
the home of his cousin, Frank r. Roose-
welt
From the church the Roosevelt party rode
to the wedding reception at the home Of

CITY MAY TAKE ACTION
TOWARD CONDEMNATION
Likelihood Municipality VIII BE In
Readiness to Take Water Plant
when Can Get II.

1t is possible that steps will shortly be
taken by the city council looking toward
condemnation proceedings against the
Council Bluffs City Water Works COM
pany, and the requirement of the plant by
the city.
City Solicitor Glen F. Kimball has recon-
mended that this be done on the grounds
that the difficulty in determining what
parties own the bonds of the company, and
the further difficulty OF coming TO an
agreement with them for a purchase price
of the plant and the appeal from the bond
issue voted to build or purchase a plant,
makes the condemnation proceedings about
the only practical solution of the tangle,
and that the proceedings should be carried
on simultaneously with the appeal recently
Omaha so that when the bond case is de-
cided that the city would be in position to
take immediate action.
Mr.. Kimball was authorized by the city
several weeks ago to negotiate with the
stockholders of the company to come to
some agreement on the purchase price, but
nothing has resulted from these confer
ences yet. 1t is understood. however, that
a committee is being organized by the
holders of the first mortgage bonds of the
company TO take care of their interests.
The second mortgage securities are prac-
tically valueless, as no settlement is antici-
pated which will be sufficient to pay more
than the $4,000 issued of first mortgage
bonds.
The securities are owned by a number o.
concerns, eastern capitalists being heavily
Interested. including. 1t is said, the interes
OF the C. 3. Nash company of Omaha, which
brought suit against the bond. The sui
was brought upon grounds that the prop
erty OF the syndicate in this city would b,
unjustly taxed by such an issue.
