A special meeting of council may bo called for next Tuesday evening, and at thin meeting will i?o cojislderod mat ters chiefly relative to tho crematory, and disposal of the city's garbage. The crematory question has engaged the attention of tho city fathers for several moons, and It Is unfortunate that Mr. Howland's bond, owing to tho flood. It Is eald, was received one day loo late to conform with the ordinance. This delay may be remedied at coun cil's next meeting, if Mr. llowland sub mits his bond with the reasons stated. The bond should have been fllcd within the fifteen days stipulated by council, but the train bearing It was delayed by floods, and when Mr. Iiowlund offered It to City Solicitor Nesbltt, the latter was unable to receive it, as the stipula ted time had expired the previous day. Mr. llowland Is out of the city now, but Is expected to reach the city to-day. ? Repairs to the crematory road were ?considered last night by the committee on health, and bills auditing $65 -40 were ordered paid. The committee did not award the garbage' contract, merely considering the several bids and defer ring action until next Monday evening, when the committee Is called to meet , again. Tho bids show a considerable | decrease from those submitted two J years ago. It was an impression with pome people that Mr. Howland would , he a bidder, but of course he could not bid, not being a cltlxen of Wheeling. The bids submitted last night were as follows: William Carney, 511,800; J. J. Kenny, 1 511,425; Charles Flecker, 510,500; Naber & Holmes, 510,440; James Conrad,59.700; i Thomas Coffey, 59,000; Robert D.

Yesterday morning the Intelligencer's article attracted the school youth, es pecially at the.high school, where Ben jamin Honecker, an Eighth ward boy. took the initiative. Other boys soon fell in with the scheme, and a delegation visited Prin cipal Work, who after hearing the scheme discussed, said he was In fu. vor of it. but advised the boys to wait until the. close of the present vacation, which starts to-day. The high .school and public schools will not reopen until April 11, and "The American Boy" fund will then be started with a boom.
