Mayor Poujade Tenders His
Resignation to City Council

Carson's sewerage troubles do not
seem to quiet down with the pas
sage of time; if anything they grow
more complex on every occasion
chat they are brought before the
city council for discussion. Last
night at the councils session they
became SO complicated that the
president of the board, failing 20
get the endorsement looked for,
placed this resignation with his
brother members to take effects on
Thursday, the 11th inst
A short time ago an ARRANGEMENT
was perfected with Steve B4Ili,
whereby he was to take care of the
sewer water and use the same for
number of years under a certain
contract which had been agreed
upon and had been drawn by the
city attorney. Last evening City
Engineer Kirk reported on the
plans and stated they were feasible
and would give continuous grade
for the water and were satisfactory
to him. The resolution was then
made and adopted by the vote of all
except that Of the Mayor, that the
contract as drawn by the city :.
torney be signed by the president
Of the board and the clerk of the
same. Mr.. Poujade then introduced
a number of amendments which ne
wished tackled on the contract but
the same were voted down. He then
stated that under the circums stances
he did not believed he would be do
ing right by the people of the city
to sign the contract and rather than
do SO would resign his position. He
then rendered his written resigna-
ton to the board to take effect ct
the time specified.
DR.. Gardner and Jas. Gardner ap-
peared before the board in relation
to the sewer waters and stated they
would allow the sewer water to be
dumped upon their lands provided
the city pay to them the sum Of
one thousand dollars for ten years
privilege. The offer was declined.

Appeal yesterday with the fire which
occurred in Lovelock. In the
Journal of this morning the follow
ing account OF the fire appears.
While the towr slept fire broke
out in the rear OF the Owl restslu-
rant adjoining the Big Meadow
hotel at ! 80 this morning and de-
stroyed great portion OF the prin-
cipal block of the city. Owing to
the lateness OF the hour the loss of
personal property was heavy
through inability to move it. Con
siderable loss was occasioned by
the removal of stocks from stores
that were thought to be in the path
Of the flames, and which were brok-
en- in the hurried efforts to get
things into the street.

The application was laid over by
the board until later meeting.
The city attorney notified the
board that complaint had been made
to him charging that L. L. Tower
was closing the west end of 4th
street for a distance of eighty feet
and the city attorney was instructed
by the council to take the necessary
steps to protect the city's rights.

hue in the Owl and the frame
building burned quickly. Night
Watchman William Opperman and
Fire Chief Wolfe discovered the
blaze but the efforts of the fire de-
partment and volunteers who flock
ed from all sections of the Gown
were Intellectual in preventing the
spread of the blaze both ways from
the Big Meadow hotel, also a frame
building.
The fire swept along the Front
street as far as the Bank saloon
and to the west took in the offices
of the Rochester Mines company
where the blaze was checked.
The total loss in the hurried esti-
mates made figures close to $4,000
but it is though this figure will be
considerably reduced. The insur-
ance will amount to little since the
rates were too high on account OF
the risk.

New Divorce Law
To Be Attacked

Parties arriving from Reno today
state that there are persistent ru-
mors in that town to the effect that
a case is soon to be brought before
the attention of the courts that will
test the validity OF the divorce law
passed by the late legislature, and
which after a certain date required
a residence in the state of one year.
From the time of the passage of
the bill many lawyers have claimed
that it contained a number of fea-
lures that were unconstitutional, and
it now looks as though an attempt
would be made 70 prove it so.

evacuated by General Mercado eight
days ago.
An official report of the rebel
leaders occupation of the city with
army was received at military head
quarters here through a message
carried by courier to eau, point
thirty miles north of Chihuahua, and
thence by telegraph.
Villa himself occupied the quar-
ters vacated by General Mercado.
The rebel troops were placed in the
garrison and the executive branch
of the rebel army occupied the state
capital. The dispatch to General
Benavides, commander at Juarez,
said General Villas entry into the
cily was attended by an ovation,
but no ceremony. The citizens, who
had been under numerous sieges
and had been long isolated without
fresh food supplies, welcomed the
new commander as an event which
promised an early reopening of the
railroads and telegraph lines. The
feeling prevailed that Villa was now
i'll a position to restore the north ,rn
section of Mexico to a period of
peace, since the federal troops by
their voluntary vacation of the ter
ritory had evinced no desire to con-
tinue fighting, at least for the pres
