THE CITY COUNCIL
The City Hall Bonds Ordinance Wavers
in the Balance The Speeches
Action on It Deferred till the Next Council
Sleeting A Camber of J mall improve-
ments Ordered Officers Eeports
The city council came together last
evening in adjouned session There was
a full attendance excepting Aldermen
Clements
Tho city hall bonds ordinance came
tip first This ordinance authorizes the
issuance of seventylive bonds of 1000
each payable May 1 1910 with inter-
est at 5 per cent payable semiannu-
ally bonds to bo designated as city
hall bonds and marked seventh series
interest and sinking fund for tho first
six months to be derived from the funds
raised from the sale of the bonds the
remainder to be raised by tax on the
assessable property In the city the sink-
ing fund to be invested in bonds of Fort
Worth Texas or tho United States
Mr Nies was the first speaker on the
ordinance He was in favor of it but
he was afraid the city script would fall-
back to its eightycentsonthedollar
basis lie thought the passage of so many
bond ordinances would hijuro the citys
standiug on the financial market ana he
did not think the necessity for a new hall
was great enough to put this extra ex-
pense upon tho taxpayers He didnt
think the city would be able to carry out
its present contracts if more bonds were
issued running the issuance up to the
limit allowed under the charter
Alderman Bailey spoke out boldly
in favor of the issuance of
the bonds Ho said tho majority
of tho taxpayers conceded the advis
ability and necessity of the structure aud
were willing to bear tho expense at any
rate ho could aver the entire progres-
sive element was in favor of it Aud it
was not a fact that the city could not
carry out its present contracts for im-
provements if these bonus wore issued
for some of the most important contracts
now let did not call for the payment of a
dollar until completion of work which
would not be for over a year thus allow
ing time tor the reassessment of prop-
erty raising tho citys valuation to the
neighborhood of 20000000 and
permitting tho issuance of further
bonds so that the improvements now
contemplated and under way could be
carried out and other ones inaugurated
Progressive men in the city had come
forward and subscribed liberally toward
bonuses and other inducements to indus-
trial enterprises to come to Fort Worth
to locate in order that tho values of
property in the city might be enhanced
other people had held back waiting for
the city to urow up around them and
taking advantage of the increased values
induced by other peoples exertions and
liberality Xow the speaker thought It
was time tho city came into step with the
Chamberlins aud tho Averya and
the North Fort Worth people and the
others who had put down their good
money that tho wholo city mieht be
benefited The improvements inaugu-
rated by outside capitalists in Fort
Worth during the past sixty days have in-
creased the value of property in the city
all the way from 30 to 100 per cent and
the buildiuc of the city hall would have
a like effect Mr Bailey called atten-
tion to the squalid joint in which tho
oouncil were then sitting surrounded
by filth broken furniture rats
and foul smell He called attention to
the big expenditure of money and tho
vast inconvenience caused by having tho
offices of the different city officials
located in widely separated parts of the
city and said the savinc in rental would
go a long way toward paying the interest
and sinking fund proposed to be assumed
by the issuance of tho city hall bonds
When strangers came to the city they in-
quired first thiug Where is your city
building and what had we to show
them The city hall was a public neces
sitv the expense of which would not be
considered a burden by the taxpayers
and the citizens who paid the most taxes
were the ones most anxious to have the
hall built
Mr Bailey made a few excoriating re-
marks about the mossback and the chron-
ic grumblers whoho declared had never
built a city and who were constantly
placing obstacles in the way of their own
advancement The city had reached a
point where with tho outside assistance
that had been brought in all that was
necessary was a little push from the cit-
izens when she would spring up to an
active irreslstable progress
Mr Haymaker rephod He said he
had seen Mr Bailey looking in his direc-
tion when ho spoke of the mossbaoks and
grumblers and he submitted the propo-
sition that tho mossbackers and grum
olers were very good people in compari-
son with that class of people who styled
themselves progressive but who were in
reality rather extravagant people plac-
ing out money at raudom where no re-
turns evbr came from it a course
which if pursued long would
eventually result in the finaucial ruin of
the socalled progressist his defalca-
tion desertion of family and other dis
astrous occurrences of enormous atroc-
ity Then tho speaker went on to ex-
plain how he thought an extravagant
policy on the part of the city would be
cs ruinous as in the case of tho individ-
ual and ho was of the opinion that tho
council had already authorized as large
an indebtedness as it could bear for a
awhile
It was suggested that Col J P
Smith who was present should be
heard which was agreed to and the
colonel said
I have listened to this discussion with
great interest A period of progress has
overtaken the city and the demands of
the time are for a progress motion on the
part of the city A great many now
buildings are being put up this year by
private Institutions and it would be a
good idea for the city to do the same A
few men have out of their private means
made a great many improvements and
the city Bhouid contribute something and
I think the whole community should
favor it The only way that can be
done Is by borrowing the money and
levying the taxes to pay it with When
many years ago I advo
I was mayor
cated improvements for Waterworks
streets and sewers but objected to ex-
penditure on n city building but now tho
taxable values have increased from
3000000 to 15000000 and the next
assessment will vaako It 20000
000 At present the city offices
are scattered all over tho city
making it iricotivient and expensive
because publio business must suffer under
such conditions The poor accommoda-
tions now supplied cost b90 per month
That much saved by tho use of the oitys
owu building would pay onethird tho
cost of the bonds fhe taxpayers will
never complain if you borrow money to
invest In permanent improvements It

helps on the forward movement and
adds value to the industries of the city
When a stranger comes to the city he is
surprised and delighted at the character
of the private buildings he laughs at the
county buildings but when he sees the
city hall but I cuess you never show
him that As a taxpayer I am willing
to bearmy pro rata of the expenses of a-
new city hall We must now go for-
ward Fort Worth can never retro-
grade It is due to the progress of the
city that the city oouncil should aid in its
progress
Alderman Fry agreed with Mr Smith
He was on the public grounds committee
and had agreed to the 50000 building
which bad been reported but that re-
port had been thrown out But discus-
sion of tho matter had been begun wrong
tonight He thought tho council had
better take another start in tho business
so he moved that tho ordinance lay over
until the next meeting of the council
Haymaker and Bailey made concilia-
tory remarks and metaphorically kissed
and made up
Alderman Xioks did not see just how
the city was going to come out finan
cially if these bonds were floated
I Alderman Daggett could not spo where
there was any difference between this
proposition and the undertaking of pri-
vate corporations which always found it
profitable to carry on their work in a
manner similar to that proposed to be
douo by tho olty The only fault ho
found with the ordinance was that it did
not call for 100000 If the city was to
bo built up by tho expenditure of money
he prolerred having his cash In a publio
rather than a private institution
Jones thought this a mere fiuanolal
proposition Could the oity with the
other expenses it had in hand undertake
this business ne did not think so
Daggett favored tho postponement of
action till the next meeting in order that
the papers might point out to the erring
aldermen the path of duty and progres
slveuess
i The motion to lay over carried
I The ordinance granting rightofway
to the Fort Worth and Arlington
Heights railway company over Seventh

Tlio Subject Upon Which Mr Williams
Preached Last Sight His Sermon
The Individual Who Clams to he a Christian
Should See That ills LIfo and Pro-
fession Conform
Evangelist WllliamB continues to draw
the people to his pulpit His exegesis of
the Bible with which he barbs his de-
nunciations of tho sins of this world and
by which to renew the sway of morality
seems to be popular
The Baptist church was well filled last
night to hear his sermon on honesty
After tho hymnal musio was rendered by
Professor and Mrs Town er Dixon Wil
liams asked several of tboso who had
made professions of faith before him to I
give testimony thereof Mr Phillips
Dr Felld Messrs Henry Feild C j
C
Mr
lng
Drake Edward Mason and
Beok expressed their abid
faith in the efficaoy of the
Chrlstain religion to make them bette r
men Pertinent to these testimonials of
the quality of the regeneration of tho
Christian relisrion Mr Williams quoted
from I John a sentence the substance
I of which is he that makes a profession
t of faith to abide in Him ought to walk
1even 1 as He walked or the Bafety of the
j godly is in their abiding of the faith
j The evangelist said that the individual
who lays claim to being a Christian should
1 certainly see that his life conformed to
his profession of faith that the world
has suffered greatly in a spiritual sense
from the sins of commission aud the in-
consistencies of Christians The church
must bear them but at the Fame
time it should not be made to
bear them It does not argue that
the grand system of Christianity is a
niility because the sins of the flesh and
the temptations of tho devil bring those
who were once its adherents Into disre-
pute The pure principles of good that
Inhere in the system are vitiated if
not sustained by the once penitent but
the cause is hurt
Now said be I would like to call your
attelition to tho practical application of
a Christian life To live religiously to
seek the Lord God ns the Saviour and
Redeemer of the world and as a pre-
requisite to your upliftinsr is necessary to
keep away the extraneous influences that
surround the man of trade What the
church needs is a wave of honesty and
the greatest burden that tho pustor has
to bear is dishouesty Just as sure as-
certain business methods of the world
are promulgated and continued
just so sure will dishonesty
prevail and autagonism exits You
should give to man what belongs to man
to Crosar what belongs to Cmsar aud
the man who fails to do thus in business
is not tit for the kingdom of God nor will
he ever put his foot there Take for
that thing which you propose to sell a
fair and jutJt compensation but beyond
that let me ns3iiro you the principles
of God denounce The evangelist
referred to hi s own experience in the
banking business He said that your
employer would tell jou that y had
made a good record when you had taken
as many pounds of flesh and as much
usury not too flagrant aud had swelled
the dividends at the end of the year
Ho spoke of the more direct con
travention of tho moral law
namely not paying your debts
He said that the most valuable heritage
handed down to your boy is the legacy of
honesty ne referred again to his own
life He admitted that bo had owned a
race horse upon whose speed he hud
gambled but with the exception of that
gamed from the pool boxes he had
paid dollar for dollar and with
the rate of interest added
You might consider me a crank said he
but if you had gone with me to the hut
of a widow woman with whose husband
I had won money on a horse race and
would have seen the p inched and pallid
faces of the children In want and heard
the woman say as he refunded the
money sho didut know where the
bread for tomorrow was coming from
the sweet experience of the righting of a
wrong could be seen If you clean up
your back record and pay your baok
debts you will be surprised to find so
much monoy that you havo spent belong-
ing to other people He said that there
were people of this kind also that brought
shame onto tho church and illustrated
it with an Individual who onoe walked
into a bank
What kind of a man is he asked
someone of the bank president as the in-
dividual walked out
Well said the banker he can
pray loud at prayer meeting Is prolific
with Biblioal quotations but notwith-
standing his godlike sense he hasnt got
the manhood 6ense
From which inference might be drawn
that he did not pay his debts
In closing his sermon he said that it
was an easy thing to make a profession
in the church but the main thing was to
stand by it He asked if there was any-
thing in the life of Christ the history of
the chureh or in tho life of a conse-
crated Christian which you need be
ashamed of

AN IMPORTANT WITNESS
Ono of tlio londnn Fcndnl Witnesses in
llulsnas n tfeattls He Make a Confesjion
and Tells of Ills persecution
St Paul Minn March 5 The
Pioneer Press this moruing prints the
folio wine special from Seattle Wash
The most important witness In the cele-
brated London scanaal case which is
agitating the British parliament and has
indirectly caused the suspension of La
bouchere from the houso of commons for
insinuating that Lord Salisburys gov-
ernment aided the witness to escape is
proprietor of Huymarket saloon in this
city Charles W Hammond was inter-
viewed yesterday and said 41 author-
ize you to deny emphatically in my
name that I ever received any assist-
ance from the British government while
I was in Belgium or was aided in any-
way by consulate or legation in Brussels
to leave that country Nobody ever mo-
lested me In Belgium and 1 was at lib-
erty to come and go wherever I
pleased I would like also to
deny the charges against me made broad-
cast in English and American paprs It
has not only injured me financially but
has preyed on my health 1 was in poor
health In London and was nearly blind
Several leading London physicians will
testify to this including Dr Clark who
treated me The gentlemen who lived
at ray houso on Clevelaud street were at
full liberty to do whatover they liked and
had their own latch keys I never in-
quired of my boarders their name or their
business I do not know that among my
boarders were the Beveridge broth-
ers well known In London The
whole move against mo is a-
political one I have just
about made up my mind to go baok
to England and testify myself All
this is very humiliating to my family
which Includes some of the richest mine
owners In the North of England lam
also a descendant of French royalty and
am related to the late emperor of France
It is time 1 denied some of tho slanders
agninst me aud I hope what I have told
you will be largely circulated iu my native
country
Hammond said he had other state-
ments more startling in effect which he
will confess in a short time It must be
remembered that when Hammond was
first confronted with the fact that his
whereabouts had been discovered on De-
cember 17 he broko down and mur
mured Why does my country hound
me like this
He also confessed that his surf dog
Rose was presented to him by the Earl
of Euston Hammonds saloon here Is
In a respectable part ol the city His
neighbors say the back entrance is fre-
quented bv welldressed young men and
some women They say It is feared the
great London scandals will be repeated
hero and they are watching him closely
The moment small boys are noticed to
frequeut this place they will complain
and cause Hammonds arrest He said
further ho is related to some of the
prominent Israelite financiers of France
and that his wie once owned a nice

How a Bank was Dnnzprously Nnr tho CIoi l
lngDp Fiint The Market Mngmuit j
Treasury lond Paying
Special to the Gazette
New Youk March 5 There was some
disappointment reflected in this morn
ings market over tho lack of the confir
j matlon of yesterdays report that the
treasury would resume free bond pur-
chases Added to this was the growing
expectation of another bad bank state-
ment for Saturday No aggressive sup-
port was developed by yesterdays ral-
lies accordingly the bears began to put-
out short stock again
The movement of the forenoon was ir-
regular Louisvillo and Nashville de-
clined New England New Jersey
Central Northern laciflo preferred
Reading Tennessee coal West-
ern Union On the other hand grang-
ers were firm as a rule Lackawauna
was well held and Union Pacific gained
2 while Manhattan opened two points
higher and susar trusts earned 1 3
Outside of Reading New Jersey Central
and Louisville and Nashville tho weak
stocks rallied materially before noon
Teunessee coal gaining a point and New
Euglond oyer tho lowest figures of tho
forenoon
The early afternoon market developed
little change from noon prices and spec-
ulation continued dull Reading con-
tinued to supply demoralization in tho
later afternoon market aud declined
further on exceptionally heavy selling
Sugar was bid up asraln to a high figure
Generally the market was dull aud a
trifle lower Tennessee coal was sent
dowu again on stop orders
Dispatches of the afternoon in-
dicated with a reasonable approach
to certainty that treasury bond buying
would be resumed and hence the feeling
was better
The fall in Reading was attributed to
liquidation by some of the large Phila-
delphia holders and was accelerated by
sales for the short account Large
blocks of stock were sold by individual
brokers aud the only noteworthy sensa-
tion in todays work outside ot Manhat-
tan was supplied by the movements in
this stock
Investors have been dumbfounded at
seeing Western Union going down on
Wnnamakers postal telegraph schemo
which they do not think amounts to a
row of pins In face of the earnincs at
the rate of per cent of increase and a
belief that it is Jay Goulds pet invest-
ment for his surplus the bears have
knocked it off 5 points since the last
dividend which with the extra made
2 per cent
C P Huntington was asked this morn-
ing about thp contracts reported to have
just been made In San Francisco between
the Union Pacific and the Japan people
for a lino of steamers between Portland
and Asiatio ports He stated that he did
not believe the report was true although
ho knew nothing about It He based his
belief upon the fact that there are not
extra steamers for use at Sau Fran-
cisco and such contracts would
have to be made in Boston and
not in San Francisco Referring to
the proposed use of the Pncitto Mail
steamers between Tncoma and Asiatio
ports by the Northern Pacific he said
I am a director of the Pacific Mail and
want to do what Is best for the interests
of the Paciflo Mail I have also large
railroad interests The Northern Pacific
people claim that it will make a
difference of 830000 a year in
favor of the Paciflo Mail company
if the present payment by the railroads
is also kept up But the establishment
of the line may endancer railroad pay-
ments which amouut to 75000 a
month and I dont see where the money
will come in to the Pacific Mull to make-
up for these payments if they are
stopped
The Homestead bank at FiftyThird
street and Tenth avenue came very
near closing up today When it was or-
ganized two ypars ago certain of the
notes it had taken from the Ninth Ave
nue bank whose successor It was were
considered by tho bauk examiners to
have impaired its capital stock to tho
extent of S155G140 Last October Dep-
uty Superintendent Charles B Hall of
the stare banking department reported
to the department that tho impairment
had existed some time and recommend-
ed thut the bank authorities be notified
to make good the deficiency within ninety
days as required by law Tho ninety
days expired on February 5 and the
bank had made no effort to make good
the defiolenoy On Monday Deputy At
torneyGeneral William J Gardner
made application in the supreme
court general term for an order
directing the bank to show cause
whv a receiver Bhouid not be
appointed An injunction to restrain
the officers of the bauk from doing busi
ness according to its oharter was also
granted with the order
Tho arguments on tho order were as-
sumed for Friday The order and In-
junction were served on Cashier
Snow on Monday afternoon Presi-
dent J Wesley Smith was greatly sur-
prised at tho action He had always
supposed the notes in question were good
Yesterday Mr Smith deposited 14000
with the Western national bank which
amouut more than covers the deficiency
President Smith said this morning that
he had instructed his counsel to go to
Albany today to make a satisfactory ar-
rangement wsth tho state bank depart-
ment All litigation will therefore cease
