4 44 CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER, TUESDAY, JULY 12, 1892. Highest of all in Leavening Power. -Latest U.S. Gov't Report. Royal Powder Baking ABSOLUTELY PURE WAR DECLARED! A RED FLAG FLAUNTED AT THE SOLDIERS' COMMISSION.
The Council Declines to Remove the Perry Monument and Rescinds Its Permission to Have the Structure Placed in the Public SquareWonderful Unanimity of OpinionTho Appropriation Ordinance Passed--The Dog Tax Killed -City Hall Site. That soldiers' and sailors' monument war is not over by any means. The council last evening deliberately resolved not to remove the Perry monument from the southeast section of the Public square and a in addition rescinded its permission to have the monument placed there. It was expected that there would be some discussion on the subject. But there was not.
The unanimity was wonderful. Mr. McKenney offered the resolution and it was adopted without the least discussion and without a dissenting voice. It noW remains to be seen what the monument commission will decide to do at its meeting this moruing. Gen.
Meyer has recommended, as elsewhere reported in this issue, that the case be again taken to the supreme court to determine the question of the legality of the commission. There was some report that the commission would fence in the Public square and proceed towards excavating for the foundation of the monument. The likely course of the commission, however, will be to bring mandamus proceedings to compel the city to rewove the monument. Mr. McKenney's resolution read as Tollows: "That it is the sense of this council that the proposed soldiers' monument should not be placed upon the Public square of this city; that said aquare is not al suitable place for said monument; that the statue of Commodore Perry now occupying a part of the southeast section of said square ought not to he removed therefrom; that this council will not, unless compelled thereto by order of court, authorize or require the removal of said statue therefrom nor appropriate any public money to meet the expense of such removal, and that the resolution heretofore adopted by the council of this city assenting to the erection of said proposed monument upon said southeast section of said square be and the same is hereby rescinded and such assent withheld." Mr.
John Wilhelm presided during a portion of the evening with grace and dignity. When the appropriation ordinance ras reached Mr. Straus strenuously objected to an item of $20,000 for the construction of a temporary crib. Mr. thought that there were other ways of extending the tunnel than by masonwork.
Mr. O'Brien supported Mr. Straus and thought that the necessity for the extension of the tunnel was not demonstrated. He held that if the western ariu of the breakwater was opened the water at the present crib would be ag pure A8 it erer was. "In Chicago the people have to cook the water for twenty-four hours," said Mr.
Herrick, "before the water can be exist used. here. The same condition will erentually We must extend the tunnel to get better water." Mr. Straus moved that the item be stricken from the ordinance but the 100- tion was lost. The ordinance wras then passed under a suspension of the rules.
against Dr. Beemon made a lengthy speech increasing salaries in the department of charities and corrections. The committee on finance had recommended that the investigator and storekeeper be given $900 per year each. Ling "I am opposed to everlastingly increassalaries," said Dr. Reeman.
"Mr. Morison says that it is absolutely necessary, but there never were so many necessaries as there are this year. After a while we will have to furnish stenogbeen able to secure me lamp post for my raphers for the firemen. I never have aistrict, and the people down there think I am a monkey. never expect to be elected again." "Our investigator dees more work than four policemen," said Mr.
Morison, "and ought to he entitled to a policeman's salary at Col. Gibbons took exceptions to that remark. An effort to pass the ordinance under a suspension of the rules failed. There was racy and interesting discussion over an effort to pass the dog tax ordinance under a suspension of the rules. Mr.
Herbert did not think that dogs ought to be taxed. He said that they were a greater protection to property than policemen. This furnished a cue to the discussion. The relative merits of policemen and dogs as guardians of public property were compared and the preponderance of evidence was In favor of the dog. The attempt to suspend the rules failed and the ordinance was laid upon the table.
The ordinance granting the City Cable Railway company the right to equip its St. Clair street line with electricity was referred to the committee on streets and railways. An ordinance was passed to transfer $3.500 from the market fund to the fire fund. Col. Gibbons reported that during the street ruilway striko he had expended $632 in employing special policemen and $94 for food for the down town patrolmen.
A resolution was adopted authorizing the director to pay the amounts. A resolution by Mr. O'Brien was adopted requesting the director of public works not to renew the contract for the lights upon the electric masts, as they had been proven unsatisfactory. resolution was adopted inquiring whether there is sufficient money derived from water rents to extend the tunnel without issuing An ordinance waking it an offense to drive a vehicle over: fire hose was passed.

AL GIVES THE BOARD OF CONTROL A PIECE OF HITS MIND 4 And Says That He Will Not Accept the Ordinance to Equip Clair Street With Electricity- -Burdened With Too Many Conditions--The Board Weakens but Robison Wants Moro A New Plan to Thwart the Monument Commissioners. Gen. Meyer reported to a special meeting of the board of control yesterday afteriloon a substitute to the ordinance granting the Cleveland City Cable Railway company the right to equip its St.
Clair street railway with clectricity. The ordinance grants the company the right to erect poles and string wires in the street and requires it to pave sixteen feet of the street from Water street to Wilson avenue with dressed block stone, to charge no extra fare and to issue transfer checks with a West Side company whenever a mutual agreement is reached. The council rCserves the right to regulate the fare at any time, to permit any other company to occupy the tracks and to forfeit the franchise of the company should of the provisions of the ordinance be violated. "There is 110 use passing that ordinance," said Mr. Frank De Hans Robison, we would never accept We will never agree to take up the present pavement and lay down dressed stone.
This company isn't taking in gold dollars every day. Then we would not issue transfer checks with any company organized oil the West Side. Gen. Myer will not live to sce the day when people will be carried from Buffalo to Chicago for 5 "I venture to say you will make money within six months if you agree to issue transfer said Gen. Meyer; "with the exception of perhaps two hours in the day you could afford to carry passengers from one end of the town to the had better stick to horses until we can cable the road," said Mr.
Robison. "I don't thinkyou are ever going to cable St. Clair street," said Mayor Rose. "I know we retorted Mr. Robison.
you reserve the right to grant other companies permission to use the tracks. We cannot accept that." "The council cannot grant an exclufive right to anyone, said Gen. Meyer. "Boston has granted the right to other companies to occupy the tracks." The board then unanimously recommended the passage of the ordinance. "You may as well withdraw the whole matt said Mr.
Robison. "We can never accept that ordinance. Mr. Robison started to leave the room. The hoard then It some little compassion for him.
Mr. Robison turned as he reached the door, and said: "We had rather 110 per said he, "put in the cable than (lectricity. We hav: had our machinery on the ground for two years, have been deterred from constructing the road owing to the tardiness of the city in building the St. Clair street sewer." This pathetic speech touched the board. and Mr.
Robison was ked what amentments he would like to have made to the ordinance. "We do not. want to nave St. Clair reet with dressed block said Mr. Robison.
The board then cheerfury reconsidered the recommendation in order that it might amend the ordinance. Mr. Herrick asked if it would be sitisfactory 10 th company if it was D'rmitted to relay its cobble stone pavement until such time as thy street is repaved. Mr. Robison replied that the amendment would be sati -factory as far 08 it went.
Such an amendment was Gen. Mover Be alone voting against "Now I thiuk that the provision making the road free to Will on avenue should be changed, making it free territory west of Erie street only. which is the provision of the original ordinanc said Mr. Morison. Commodore Gardner spoke enthusiastically in favor of the am adment.
He referred to the excell 'nt street car service of the city and to the fact that the municipality owed much to the street railwav companies in enhancing the value its real estate. The amendment was carried, Mayor Rose and Gen. Moyer voting no. The ordinance WAS then recommended for passage as amended. After the board had adjourned Mr.
Robison declared that his company would not accept the ordiDance anyway. "We cannot afford to permit 1 the council to regulate our fare at any shid Mr. Robison. "They might be pleased to cut it to 2 cento. We want to equip our road with cloctricity to accommodate our patrons.
We should rather be aided than obstructed in the enterprise." Gen. Meyer finally reported upon the application of the soldiers and sailors' 11.011- ument commission to have the statue reanove from the Public square. Gen. Meyer read the decision of the supreme court on vase, touching upon the 111- thority of the legislature to grant the colllmission a section of the square. "But there is one point upon which the supreme court has failed to said Gen.
Meyer, "and that is the question touching the validity of the commission. The legislature authorized the governor to appoint Ari commissioners the twelve members of the committee of the Guyahoga County Soldiers and Sailors' union. Meanwhile one of the twelve remored from the city. 'The governor appointed eleven and to fill the vacancy added (ten. Leggett to the commission, who not a member of the union.
In my judgment the aIrpointment was illegal aud I think that if the case. stripped of all other questions, is resubmitted to the court that the court will hold the appointment was illegal. I do not think that the square is the place for the monument or the monument the thing for the square. The board recommended for passage an ordinance to grant the Cleveland Relt Line Terminal company the right to construct a bridge across an unused street the Hats near the mills of the Cleveland l'aper company.

The death of little Nathan Sicherman at the Jewish orphan asylum last May is a grief from which those interested in the asylum are unable to recover. At the time the greatest consternation was felt and every effort made to inquire into the cause, but no satisfacory result was obtained. At the quarterly meeting of the trustees and directors held Sunday the subject pras brought up and dwelt upon and again at the annual meeting yesterday afternoon. The weeting was the twenty-fourth annual gathering of districts Nos. 2, 0.

The chair was occupied by President Abraham Hart of Chicago.
On his right sat Dr. S. Wolfenstein, secretary and superintendent of the asylum, and on his left Vice P'resident David Adler of Milwaukee. The president opened the session by delivering his message. Said he: "It gives we great pleasure to extend to you a hearty greeting of welcome to the board of trustees and directors the this, the twenty-fourth annual mecting of orphan asylum.

In substance it ran: "With all enrollment of 404 orphan children we have commenced the work of this year.

Dr. Marcus Rosenwasser, the house physician, submitted detailed report of the hoalth of the children, paying particular attention to the death of the little child in May. The report of Mr. Buchmann, financial secretary, in substance was as follows: Aggregate receipts for general funds $63,528.33, building funds 084.50, manual training $025, mechanical interest fund total $69,200.35.

This briuging the reports to a close the mecting proceeded to fill the vacancies in the board of directors. Mr. Max Meyer of Omaha was clected by acclamation to fill the vacancy caused a by the death of Mr.
M. Helman. Samuel Trust of Cincinnati was nominated to fill A second vacancy. This was vigorously opposed on the ground that there were already enough representatives in the vicinity of Cincinnati and some one ought to be selected from the neighborhood of St. Paul, where the interest in the asylum is rather lax.
It was finally decided to postpone the election until the next quarterly meeting. Attention was called by the president the to a gold watch and chain lying upon table, which. had been presented the to the institution by Henry King with it. request After a that short some discussion disposal it was left in the be made of hands of the superintendent, M.

Before adjournment fitting appreciation of the work of the committee, the officers and all who had in any way contributed to the success of the year was expressed in a series of resolutions specially prepared. As a mark of esteem to Dr. Wolfenstein, he was requested to take a vacation of four weeks but owing to the press of work in summer he declined to do SO until fall.

Whenever either of the two would find himself in company with any of the movers of the fun the talk would turn to this subject, and apparently considerable money was placed on whicherer of the two was present. The result WAg that about two weeks ago the men agreed to meet in the ring and settle the matter once for all, and $5 a side wAS put up. Both men were above the weight decided on, and training was of course necessary. Then the fun for the outsiders began, and they put the poor fellows through a course that would have killed 2 horse under 01- dinary circ*mstances.
'I. M. Sheedy and W. D. Heffron took the barber in charge, while the Bachr brothers acted as trainers for Cohen.
The method pursued with the barber was for the men to take a horse and buggy and tow the poor fellow around over the country at the end of rope. The regular run was to Silverthorna and back, and they would take him over the road at five- mile gait. On returning and while still covered with perspiration they would give him a bath in ice cold water and rub him down with coarse towels. His training ended Sunday with run from The Mulberries to Silverthorn's. The training of Cohen was no less sovere, but the work was done at Raehr's brewery and as a sweat box they used the malt room that was kept at a temperature of 140 degrees.
When in a goml sweat they would rush him around the yard and then back into the room, where they would douse him with ice cold water and then rub him down. After two weeks of this training the men were declared ready for the fight, which came off lust night at Baehr's brewery. Both men appeared in the ring in regulation fighting costume and the sport Tag fast and furious. Tom Farrell acted as referee for Cohen There were about fifty, prople present. and Al Baehr officiated for Louis the Barber.
The result of. the fight was that Cohen put the barber to sleep in three rounds. In the first round the barber had the best of it and was credited with the first blood. The second round wag spent in sparring and neither bad any advantage. In the third round by a neat blow in the short ribs Cohen knocked out the barber completely.
After vainly trying to revive with a plentiful shower of cold water be was Cohen's carried out on a stretcher. were so clated that he has been matched to meet an unknown tiro weeks night.

The Governor Submits to an Interview on the All Important Subject and Answers a Series of. Questions -Ohio, lie Says, Will Go Republican-Harrison Ho Thinks Will be Ite-Elected.
When Gov. McKinley was interviewed by a Plain Dealer reporter Sunday evening at the home of Ion. M. A. Hanna, West Cleveland, and he refused to talk concerning Homestead troubles he remarked incidentally that he might do so later in the week.
In the hopes that the governor might be in a more talkative mood and the day and circ*mstances being possibly better suited to the occasion a reporter called upon him last night at IIon. M. A. Hanna's home. The governor had just arisen from dinner.
The feeling of contentment and good will toward all men which is said to intermingle with the process of digestion of a satiatel appetite may have been responsible for the governor's willingness to be interviewed. The first question asked was "Why do the mill men at Homestead have to fight against a reduction of wages when your protective tariff is supposed to protect home industries against foreign competition, thereby increasing the profits of the manufacturer and the wages of the producer?" The governor seeming to hesitate the following question was substituted: Democratic papers are charging the trouble at Homestead to the protective tariff. What have you to say, if anything?" "I see some of the Democratic papers have been so charging, while others take a different riew. I bare not observed the position of your paper upon the matter. The tariff has nothing whatever to do with the unfortunate occurrences at the Carnegie works.
Strikes occur in free trade countrics and in protection countries. They are confined to neither. It must be regretted by every friend of his country that there are those who would make political capital out of the misfortunes of their fellows. In answer to your question about the political effect I believe it will have none." "What do you think of Foster as Blaine's successor?" diplomat and will make a good secretary "Foster to is an experienced and skillful of state." "Democratic papers claim Obio will go Democratic this fall. What do you think about it?" "I think they are mistaken, don't you?" "What lines will you speak on in the coming campaign?" "My speaking will be on Republican "Why, in your opinion, will Harrison be elected?" "Because on the national issues a majority will be for the principles which he represents." The governor spent the day yesterday in taking in the sights of the city.
