of THE KANSAS CITY TIMES. THURSDAY, OVEMBER 26, 1891 3 LIVELY SCENE IN THE DAVENPORT AND COUNCILMAN FOLEY ALMOST COME TO BLOWS. Councilman Manning and Counselor Ro zelle Stepped in Botween the Pair and Prevented Trouble 14 Flow of Slang From the Second Ward live, 04. Ex-Mayor Davenport visited the lower house council chamber just as Speaker Hayes was taking up the gavel preparatory to calling the house to order last night. He spoke a few words to Councilman Andy P.

Foley and the conversation suddenly became the property of the house. It was loud and had an exciting ring about 1t. A fistic battle seemed imminent. "You needn't talk to me," said the councilman, In a loud tone. "I don't want to talk to people like you.

I saw the raw cracks you made at the major in this morning's papers and you ain't in it with me from now on. Why don't you jump onto somebody your own size sometimes. Why, don't you talk to P. that way. I'il tell youThe ex-mayor attempted to explain that he did not say everything ascribed to him.

"You didn't say it, eh?" asked the councilman. "How did it get in the papers? You can't ring in that kind of a thing onto me. I'm a democrat and a friend of Ben Holmes and won't allow you to abuse him and then talk to me. You've been traveling a long time on your shape, but the ple have got onto you. You are big, overgrown stiff, that's what you are." Mr.

Davenport remonstrated against such a term being applied to nimself. An excited crowd had gathered by this time. Councilman Manning, Counselor Rozzelle and others were crowding in between the ex-mayor and councilman to prevent trouble. 'If you're around looking for a game," shouted Foley, "I'll give it to you. If 1 the mark you're looking for, do your wot ato guys like you.

I'm your game it you w. "I don't want any ti you," said Mr. Davenport. And then the came to the front and persuaded ale mayor to withdraw and friends of Foley quieted down. The speaker then rapped the house to order in the usual matter-of-fact way.

AGREED UPON BY BOTH HOUSES, The Council Passes the Ordinance to Begin Waterworks Construction, The ordinance authorizing the board of public works to take the first steps in the building of new waterworks was unanimously passed by both houses of the council last night. All it requires now to become law is the mayor's signature, and that will probably be affixed today. The early passage of the ordinance was the result of constant urging by the mayor, keeping in line with his policy on the waterworks question, called meeting after meeting of the council to secure action on the measures necessary to hasten the beginning of the big terprise. At Monday night's session an ordinance was introduced authorizing the board of public works to construct waterworks, providing for the appointment of a consulting engineer, superintendent of construction and other persons to actively engage in the building of the waterworks. The ordinance was unanimously passed by the upper house, but was amended by the lower house by leaving out the consulting engineer.

This threw the ordinance back into the upper house. The mayor called a meeting of the council for the very next evening and the npper house unanimously refused to concur with the lower house on its amendment. The upper house president appointed Messrs. Hunter and Kimball to confer with a committee of two from the lower house. Last nightthe speaker of the lower house appointed Messrs.

Bowes and Thomas to confer with the upper house committee. 'The committee unanimously reported in favor of providing for a consulting) engineer and this left the ordinance almost precisely the same as when it was first introduced. The committee's report was unanimously adopted by both houses and the ordinance was then unanimously passed. The ordinance authorizes the beginning of the big work by the board of public works, lt provides for the following appointments by the board: Consuiting engineer upon such terms as the board may agree upon, the engineer of the water works to be paid $325 8 month; four inspectors, 84 each per day: three draughtsmen, 8125 each per month; two draughtsmen, 8100 each per month; one transit man, $100 a month; one clerk, $50 a month; one rod man, $60 8 month; two chain men, 850 each per month: two inspectors of iron. $5 each per day and traveling expenses.

The ordinance provides for the immediate advertising for bids on the work. FOR twenty-five cents you can get Carter's Littie Liver Pills-the best liver regulator in tho world. Don't forget this. One pill a dose. THOSE LOW BOND BIDS.

Comptroller Hobbs Explains the Circumstances Under Which They Were Offered, Comptroller Stanley Hobbs is still sleeping well of nights and eating three square meals each day, despite the hubbub raised by certain excitable ones because he gave the contract on the waterworks bonds to a home Arm whose bid was higher than that of a St. Louis concern. However, a somewhat bitter talk from the agent of the St. Louis firm, published in morning paper, has led Mr. Hobbs to explain why he did not give the cona tract to this very low bidder.

Mr. Hobbs said yesterday to a TIMES reporter: to the interview of Mr. Davies, western manager for Woodward Tiernan of St. Louis, printers and lithographers, in regard to this bond contract I have only this to say as regards the exceedingly low bid of that firm through Its agent, Mr. Davies, Mr.

Marshall of the Marshall chemical manufacturing company, 328 West Sixth street, tells me this concerning Mr. Davies' bidding on work: He says that Mr. Davies bid on an order of printing to be done by this firm and in taking the bid he figured on only a portion of it and sent the balance of the work to his house for figures, and after a delay of some ten days or two weeks the house returned the order saying they could not accept the order on account of it baing too low. Then Mr. Davies was asked to again figure on the order, which he did, and guaranteed that the same would be filed accordingly.

The house again returned the order 89 too low and Mr. Davies called on Mr. Marshall. and Mr. Marshall explained the situation and offered to allow $80 more than the bid called for, and Mr.

Davies said he would lose 850 of his money to get the order filled. After 8 long delay the house again refused to accept the terms of their western manager and thereby caused great loss and damage to Mr. Marsball. shows how some of these extraordinary low bids turn out, It Mr. Davies is still anxious to discuss low bids, I think from what Mr.

Mar. shall tells me that we will soon havo a fine chance to do so in court." A Fashionable Drink. Menier Chocolate is a fasbionable drink. Did you over try it? Send postal card for samples and directions. MENIER, New York.

John Morrissey's Gratitude. Francisco "Few I people know," said John K. Rickey of Missouri yesterday at the Palace, "that John Morrissey was a man in whom the finer feelings were very largely developed. He felt keenly the reproaches which were heaped upon him because of his having been a gambler and a prize fighter, and he told me that when he was elected to congress from New York city he made up his mind to show to the world that he could rise above his antecedents. When he took his seat in the chamber of the house of representatives he felt that he was looked upon coldly by his associates on the floor, but instead of attempting to resent it he maintained a discreet silence and paid not the slightest heed to what was going on about him.

On the second day of the session, he informed me, a tall, stately old gentleman walked up to desk and, extending his hand, asked: this Mr. 'It was the response. I must congratulate you, sir, upon your election, and I am proud' to welcome you That old said Morrissey, in 8 broken voice, 'was the famous Thad Stevens, and that meeting was the proudest moment of my SUIT the people, because they are tired of bitter doses, with the pain and griping that usually follow.

A. eleven was not in the game, and, in addition, the work of the team was not up to its standard. Nevertheless, Columbia, which was in much better trim than when it played against Kansas university, only scored eight points. Captain Kirk thinks his team is in better condition now than it has ever been. He said yesterday that the team was in good shape now and he was sure it could give the Lawreuce team the hardest fight it has had this SEASOD, The grounds will be in good condition.

Men were at work on them all day yesterday. The goal posts have been changed so that the playing can be seen much better. The lines run now diagonally across the fleld from bleacher to bleacher. From the grand stand, therefore, the game can be seen perfectly. The teams that willl face each other will probably be as follows: Gossard.

Right Platt Left Dobson Marcy Left tackle. Champlin Left guard. Frederick Center. Huddleston Right guard. Foster Right Mendall McDonald Quarter Truitt Half Nield.

Kansas University foot ball team is in splendid condition for the game tomorrow with the Y. M. C. A. eleven.

All the hotels tonight were decorated with the orange and black of Princeton and blue of Yale, while street peddlers did a thriving business in rosettes. bows, pins and badges. The Yale team with twelve substitutes, two trainers, four rubbers and Dr. Thayer arrived in a special car this evening. There may De two changes in the team as it was when it played against Harvard last Saturday.

Stillman will brobably play center instead of Stanford and there 18 a probability of Noyes being substituted for McCormick at full back. The Fitth Avenue hotel, where the boys made their headquarters was crowded by an eager throng, but Captain MeClung insisted his men should rest and denied them to all comers. The Princeton eleven were quartered at the Murray Hill hotel, They arrived about 8 o'clock in charge of Trainer McMasters, who, like Captain McClung, insisted on his men taking all the rest they could get. Their admirers are very confident that they will put up a great game and that if they withstand Yale'8 first mighty rush they will win a victory through their skill in playing a defensive game, their endurance and the acknowledged bility of Homans to drop the pigskin between Cale's goal posts. The players have steadily deeloped from the very first, so that now all the new men are playing good foot ball and the old gen, Warren, Riggs, Kingand Homans, are doing that could be asked of them.

Bliler's billiard parlors, 106 West Ninth street, last night, and a small boy counted so fast that you could hardly follow him. The little man was Jake Schaefer and the blonde man was Eugene Carter. They were giving another exhibition.

inch balk line billiards by a score of 200 to 89. Schaefer looks like a billiard player; 50 does Carter, and yet they are unlike in appearance. It is pretty hard to tell what sort of a man looks Ike billiard player, yet the man of experience can tell one 85 soon as he picks up a cue. Schaefer combs his hair smoothly down over his forehead; his mustache bangs lazily over his mouth. The Index finger of his left band 1g off at the first joint.

He makes billards as though he bad no particular interest in them. In fact be seems to play carelessly, but he doesn't--he plays with wonderful precision. Carter combs his strawberry blonde nair Pompadour style and his short moustache bristles somewhat fercely. He plays carefully til he comes to fancy exhibition shots; then he seems a different man and plays with wonderful brilliancy. These fancy shois came after the two games mentioned.

Schaefer had the first go at the balls and made shots that curled the hair of the 300 or 400 spectators. Then Carter took hold and redeemed himself from the ignominy of his bad drubbing. Carter is probably the best fancy billiard player in the world. Last night he made all the shots known to the billiard world, apparently, and at the same time proved himself quite 8 comedian, indulging in much airy persiflage. He kept up 8 running remarks as: "If I did it the first time, think it was easy;" "A ball is only about two inches you know;" can't see out of my right eye," and "No, I can't play a lick." As a wind up Carter gave an exhibition of finger billiards, using balls probably three-fourths of an inch in diameter.

He caused these little balls to turn somersaults, do flip flaps and make wry faces. They did everything but talk. Pennsylvanians Defeat Wesleyans.
