CITY FINANCES ARE STRAIGHTENED OUT Joint Conference Committee ot Councils Comes to an Agreement. APPROPRIATIONS ARE ON THE WAY As Small u Hum As 8 1 ,'i tt 3. 75 Wns Invohcd in I.nst Night's Delibera tions of the Conference Committee ofSulcct Hcptiblicniis nnd Common Democrats, but It Smoothed Out the Appropriation ;Imldlc--Will ltcport to Councils Thursilny Night. The much abused appropriation or dinance will speedily be adopted by councils. That much was determined nt last night's conference commtttco meeting of five Ilepubllcau members from the select branch nnd ns many Democratic members from the lower branch. The two divisions began the session with a pronounced suspicion against each other and it wns nearly an hour before an agreement on one of the dis puted Items. Then It developed that each half of tho committee was dis posed to come to an understanding and by 10 o'clock seven Items, tho small number thnt havo tied up the city's finances for seven wnelts, were so re duced or Increased ns to satisfy both tho Democratic and Republican mem bers of the conference. The chief credit for the final straight ening out of tho muddle as far ns last night's meeting Is concerned Is due Commoner Morgan Sweeney, one of tho live Democratic conferrces, and Se lectman Charles AVagner, of tho Ile publlcau division. The former, nfler a half hour's useless wrangling and debate among all present, announced In neither low voice nor measured words that ho and his colleague were willing to concede dollar for dollar and meet the Republicans half way, but they would not overstep the boundary line an Inch. Mr. Sweeney's attitude brought out a disposition to come to an agreement and finally Mr. AVagner permitted $125 to be taken from an ap propriation for new electric lights Ir. his ward, tho Tenth. Ono hundred nnd twenty-five dollars may seem a smull part of $313,D4S contained In tho ap propriations, but Just such Insignifi cant sums havo tied up the city's finances until now. SPECIAL MEETING CALLED. Folowlng the committee's agreement It was decided by the Democratic five to sign a call for a special meeting of common council Thursday night, tho night of the select council session, and to submit their report. Select coun cil and the common branch will. It Is expected, accept the revised ordinance and Immediately proceed to start It on Its final passage. Only $1,233.75 was taken from thrco items and transferred to four in order to bring about the agreement. It re quired, however, just two hours to perform the work. The changes made were as follows: Additional electric lights In the Tenth ward reduced from $300 to $173; $25 appro priated for an Iron fence on the Itallioid avenue culvert and $V toward an addition al electric light in the Second ward. For reconstructing the old Center street station house, reduced from $2,000 to $1,000; $1,000 appropriated for a new house for Cumberland Hoses company. For Fifteenth ward street lepalrs. re duced from $933.75 to $S35; Fourteenth ward street repairs Increased fiom $CG2 to $S12. Tho changes as made leaves $11.25 more appropriated than there Is pro vision for. This sum will on Thursday night be deducted from some general Item over which there has been no dispute. Messrs. Thomas (chairman), Sch'roe dcr Durr, Ross and AVagner were the select council Uepulllcafi conferee, and Messrs. Orler "(chairman), Flana gan, Sweeney, Gllroy and Noone, all Democrats, the conferees from the low er branch. Common Council Clerk Mnhou was chosen clerk of the com mittee. A BLUE BEGINNING. There wns a deadlock at the start when Mr. Grler and Mr. Thomas each received 11 vo votes for chairman of the Joint committee. Mr. Sweeney saw a way out of the dllllculty by proposing and putting Into execution, a draw Ing of cuts. Mr. Thomas, drew the losing cut, announced himself as (satisfied with the result and Mr. Grler assumed tho chair. Mr. Sweeney gained tho first recogni tion and moved the appropriation of $1,000 for a new house for .. umber land Hose company. For h. half hour the Democrats argued for and the Re publicans ngalnst It. Before a vote was taken It was evident that It would be a tie and Mr. Sweeney excitedly nnnounced the position of the Demo crats. He remarked that not one con cession would be made to tho Republi cans If th'o latter were unwilling to concede anything. The Democrats were present to give dollar for dollar but It might just as well be understood that they would not go one Inch over the halfway line. This explanation of the Democratic plan of action removed the suspicion among the Republicans that some choice Item would bo secured by the opposition and that they would then dictate what should be granted the members from the select branch. It served to urBe them all to seek for a practical way out of the deadlock nnd Individual searches were made for an Item that could be reduced) to meet tho Increase of $1,000 suggested by the Democrats. The $2,000 for renovating the Center street station house was hit upon by Mr. Flanagan and was agreed to. The oth'er changes were then made, with little or no trouble, the unusual length of the session being duo to a consideration of what items should be cut to meet the 'demands of the two factions. Mr. AVagner first established u feeling of brotherly love nnd confid ence by agreeing to permit a reduction of tho appropriation for new electric lights In his ward. Both sides were backed in an effort to approve Mr. Gllroy's motion to in crease the salary of mayor's clerk from $000 to $1,000. It was voted to mako tho increase and then camo a half-hour search to find the necessary $100. Tho Democrats did the eearchtns but na fast as was suggested an item for cut ting tho Republicans would show that thoso particular ttemB could not bo Hhavcd, ONE HUNDRED STRICKEN OFF. An adjournment was taken with the $100 tacked on to tho salary but with no provision for it. At the door the members paused to consider time for another meeting, it was realized that their work had not been completed and by common consent tho committee re convened and on motion of Mr. Gllroy the item was fixed at Its original figure, $900. A final adjournment was then mnde to Thursday night. Tho select council Republicans were not regularly appointed conferees. They will, however, be appointed by President Sanderson as soon ns the upper branch convents on Thursday nlpht. Th'o Joint conference committee will then meet, ratify Its unolllclal ac tion of last night and present their report for confirmation. CHURCH ORCHESTRA ENTERTAINS. Unusually Pino lUntcrtniumcnt nt tho Second I'rcslivtcrinii Church. A largo audience last night enjoyed a very fine entertainment given In tho lecture room of tho Second Presbyter Ian church by the Sabbath school or chestra, assisted by the choir. Pro fessor J. M. Chance, the church or ganist, who Is nlso the elllctont director of the orchestra. Tho first number wns "Frolic of Cupid" (Gruenwnld), given In pleasing style by tho orchestra. Tills was fol lowed by a quartette selection, "Love's Old Sweet Song," by Messrs. Croft, Runyon, Cross and Dryer. "Will R. Allen played a delightful violin solo, DeBerloLs' Seventh Air, with varia tions. Miss Oarngan, of tho church choir, sang "Sunset," a beautiful piece by Dudley Buck. Miss Oarngan wns giv en a cordial reception, Tho orchestra then played Rubenstelns' melody in F. The performance wns very will done, and showed tho training that the young musicians have received from Professor Chance. Miss Black, of tho choir, delighted her friends In the singing of "Ono Spring Morning" (Nevln), and "You" (Kobyn). "William Hnnley played the violin obllgato. The trombone solo of J. S. Twin, of tho orchestrn, was skillfully given. At this point In the programme the church quartette, Misses Black nnd Oarngan, Messrs. Beynon and Morgan, sang Protheroo's "Tell Me, Thou Pretty Bee." Tho piece wns given a hearty approval of 'the audience. The rest of the programme Included a flute solo, "Allegro Brllllante," well executed by T. J. Bauschmann; a tenor solo, "For All Eternity," sung by Thomns Bey non, nnd tho "Gloria," by the full choir. Barcarolle was played by the orchestra, AVIU Stanton, the talented corneter, playing tho solo part, and the final piece of an unusually de lightful entertainment was the "Mas ter Miner," played by the orchestra. Charles Doersam, assistant to Pro fessor Chance, added valuable assist ance to the success of the concert. RESOLUTIONS OF REGRET. Adopted by tho Directors of tho Traders' National Hunk.

THEY WILL DECIDE THIS AFTERNOON Bonn! of Revision to Frame n Report to Councils on Assessment Decision. AN APPEAL IS NOT IA1PR0BABLE If Such n Cnurso Is Decided Upon an Kfl'ort Will Ho .Undo to Ilnvo tho Supremo Court Pass Upon It at Oncco-llonnl Will IIuvo Two As sessments Ready to Meet Any Con dition of Affairs That ?Iny Arise. Tho board of tnx revision and np peal will meet at 2 o'clock this after noon In tho city clerk's olllce and dis cuss a plan of action In consequence of Judge Archibald's decision that the re cent special tax assessment Is Illegal. It Is quite probably that tho board will prepare a report for councils recom mending thnt City Solicitor Torrey be dlrecteel to take an appeal. Not until next February wilt the Su preme court meet In regular session to hear cases from this district, but ns twenty-four cities nre Involved In tho special assessment matter and ns sev eral of them now havo special assess ments pending It Is believed the Su preme court will sit In special session to hear the case and make an effort to hnnd down nn opinion without any delay. Personally, City Solicitor Tor rey Is anxious that the appeal should be taken. Ho has been so urged by letter from several city solicitors, throughout the state. So whatever may be tho persona.1 wishes of council men or of some of their constituents who have had their taxes Increased It 13 thought that the city legislators will speedily direct Mr. Torrey to take the course Indicated. Meanwhile, the board of revision and appeal will finish the last of their work In connection with the new assess ment and wllbalso prepare an assess-, ment on the old basis. No taxes will be collected as the board docs not wish to be put In the position of approving or taking exceptions to the opinion of the local court. Py having the two as sessments prepared, however, every thing will be In readiness for tax col lections according to the Supremo court's reversal or affirmation of Judge Archbald's opinion. There has been raised the question of whether the board of revision has tho power to direct City Solicitor Torrey to take an appeal. As there Is a division on that point among the board mem bers and as they are anxious to avoid even slight delay it Is quite likely that It will be left to councils to order the appeal. It Is believed the Supreme court's decision can be obtained In from six to eight weeks. JUDGES LOOKED PLEASANT. All Three Smiled, but It Wns Only for n Few Seconds. There was a special session of court yesterday afternoon for about half an hour. It wns convened nt the Instance of Attorney I. II. Burns.

A Youngster Who Recognized That Ho Hnd Been Detected. A child 6 yars of ago hnd developed a bad habit of rising In the night to drink from the water bottle, and had been forbidden In vain. On the night of a recent storm the parents, being away, his aunt tucked him safely In bed. "Now, Dickey," she snld, "remember I can tell If you go to the water bot tle." "Oh, no, nuntle," ho smiled, slyly, "how can you?" "I can tell," sho said, with convic tion. "But how?" said Dick, skeptically. "I can," sho repeated, "and, since you won't promise, you naughty boy, I shall empty the bottle." And she did so, to the young reprobate's consterna tion. In tho middle of the night the gable of tho house was blown down, nnel crushed like thunder through tho cell ing of Master Dick's room. As his aunt and the servants rushed In a ter rible sight met their gaze. The bed was almost hidden by masses of bricks nnd masonry, two iron feet at the head being driven completely through the lloor. With a shriek his aunt fell on her knees. "O, Dicky! poor Dicky!" fclie cried. "He's been killed." The words had hardly left her lips when thero came a light, faltering step from the bath room, and, as they turned, there stood Dicky, his teeth chattering with cold, a candle In one hand, and a full water bottle in the other. For a. full moment he surveyed the bed with Its ton or two of de bris, and then shook his head with sorrowful admission. "Veth aunty," he declared, "you thed you could tell If I did." Got n Drop to Drink. "It was horrible," said tho Kentucklan, speaking of tho flood. "I suppose so," said tho llllnoisan, "Oh, you have no conception of our suf fering," persisted the Kentucklan. "No ono can who has not been through some thing of that sort." "Kxposure, I suppose?" "Exposure was bad enough, but that wasn't the worst of It. There 1 Was sit ting on a roof all night with 'water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink," as tho poet says." "Not a drop to drink!" cxcalnied tho stranger. "Not a drop that Is, of anything but water you know," said the Kentucklan. Chicago Pest. Wns Sho Tensing Him f "It Is doggtno funny," said Mr. Sportze, "that I can go out with tho finest equip ment In the market and not get more than two or three llttlo fish, while a country kid can get a string of them as long as his arm with nothing but a hickory pole, a hook on a string and a few worms." "It merely shows how crude tha rural flBh aro In their tastes, dear," said his wife, but he isn't suro whether sho was exhibiting that sweet womanly sym pathy or, not.
