Couuctl Meeting.

Only four mtmbers were present when Mayor Duncan tapped for order la?t nigia but the other two came in in a lew minutes. The minutes of the two preceding meetings were read and approved.

The Public Improvement committee reported that they had contracted with George Morehead for two wells instead of one and had agreed to pay him $76'o for the two.

The Secretary of the Board of Health made a repoit in which he very vigorously condemned the rest of the board for their diiit'U-y action iu regard to coiideming the sewer known as the Thayer sewer. Among other things he recommended that the council take immediate action on this sewer, which hey did.

The S-cretary r*poted for tbe month of July tight biitus and three deaths from ordinary causes.

Bids for the improvement of North street from School to the corporate limits were opened and read as follows:

Parker, Fry & Parker, 98c per lineal foot and 13 cents per square foot lor cement sidewalk aloDg the school house.

C, M. Kiikj atrick $1.06 per lineal foot and 10 cents per tquare foot for cement sidewalk.

Hafner & McCabe, $1 38 per foot and 10 cents per square foot for cement tidewalks.

T. J. Fan rot $1 per foot and 10 cents for sidewalk. 5

Herron & White $1 82 per root including cement walk. E. G. Gant, $1 09 including cement walk. Tbe city engineer and ciiy mtorney_were instructed to figure and determine who was the lowest biddi". I They reported Parker, Fry & Paik were the lowest bidders on the )b by $11.68 and the contract was awarded to that firm.

A representative of the Wcrtbingt.on company was- before the c&uticil and

wanted to know when the city was going to pay for the air lift pump. Fie was respectfully informed that the pump had not been tested according to contract and that he would have to a^ait until the test was made. The council took the right step in this matter, ami further mire, we would say that it would be very foolish for them to buy this pump unless it gives perfect satisfaction.

An ordinance was passed whereby those wanting to run pool or billnrd tables will have to pay a licence of $25 for the first table and $15 for each additional table they ruu. The ordinance in full appears in tbe weekly REPUBLICAN of this week.

An ordinance condemning tbe Thayer sewer was passed, which app ars in this week's REPUBLICAN.

IOWA DEMOCRATS.

Free Coinage Men Defeated After a Debate of Several Days. MARSHALLTOWN, la., Aug. 8.—One of

the most notable conventions in tke history of Iowa Democracy close.! in ffois city yesterday evening. Since Mondaf there has been a bitter strife between the two opposing elements of the party —one contending for a ticket and platform on a "sound money" basis the other clamoring for free coinage, without waiting for an international agreement. From start to finish the white metal contingency did nearly all the talking on the street, in hotel lobbies, at various headquarters, in committee rooms, cancnsses and finally en tkjf jhowr of the convention, but wh/jn the minority report of the committee ou resolutions favoring the free otoinage of silver was presented it.ivas defeated by a vote Of 651 1-2 to 420 r-2.

The state ticket was then nominated as follows: For governor—Judge W. I. Babb of Mount Pleasaut.

Lieutenant governor Ex-Governor S. L. Bestow of CUariton. Superintendent of public instruction —Lyman B. Pa/shall of Maquoketa.

Railroad commissioner—Colonel Geo. James of Dubuque. Supreme judire—Senator Thomas C. Harper of Des Moines.

The financial plank of the platform is as follows: "We hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country and to coin both gold and silver without discrimination against either-#'letal or charge for mintage bnt the d&lar unite of coinage of both metals must be of equal intrinsic and exchangeable value or to be adjusved by international agreement or by such safeguards of legislation as sliail insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the parm»nt of debts, and we demand that the payor currency shall be kept at par with and redeemable in such coin."

Mississippi Democrats.

JACKSON, Miss., Aug. 8.—The Democratic state convention nominated the following ticket: For governor, J. H. McLaughlin for lieutenant governor, J. H. Jones for secretary of state, J. L. Powers for auditor, W. D. Holden for treasurer, A. Q. May. A resolution was adopted favoring the free and unlimited coinage of silver at 16 to 1, regardless of any foreign nation.

AT DURANT'S TRIAL.

Two Sensation* Sprung Daring the D'ty and ltecem Taken. SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 8.—Yesterday

was a day of surprises at the trial of Theodore Durant, charged with the Emanuel church murders. After court convened a recess was taken to allow a consultation between the lawyers which resulted in a joint request for an adjournment. The district attorney stated that the adjournment was necessary for the consideration of matters of great importance which had arisen in this trial. It was understood that this had to do with the prosecution's dissatisfaction with Juror Walter S. Brown.

Another sensation was caused by the request from Brown for permission to address the cour*" oil a personal matter. The judtre intimated his willingness to hear .Brown at the proper time. It is said Brown will invite the fullest investigation as to his conduct in the Howell trial.

Morning papers' have published interviews witu .) nrors i^rown md iSathan regarding their quaiiiicatious to serve and their opinion ou mooced points, and proceedings i(,r contempt of court are said to

The alternate jurors ave wiiat may be termed emergency men. They will have all the privileges of regular jurymen with the exception of casting a vote or deliberating upon the verdict. Their presence is simply a provision against possible delay which might he caused by sickness or death.

This will be the first time the new law has been taken advantage of. It is believed the defense will be satisfied with the motion, as it will take that xautsh iftage* to.gofr a jnvy.
