The new city council met last night t ifor the purpose of accepting the bonds I ' or the newly elected officials and to AH | f. the various positions of trust under the j r city government. It had been report* j ed about town that ail kinds of kicks !. were to be raised against the clectlou I j of the Republican caucus nominees, | and that a combination had been form* ed. wherebyvthe slate made up on Saturday night, would bo broken Into an 1 unrecognisable mats. In consequence of these reports, the largest crowd of spectators evor as5m aembled in the gRllerloa nnd back of the railing, was present when tho aec! 'ond branch was called to order. Look I before half-past seven there was it L, acramble for seats and soon standing reom was nt a premium. The frrowd was disappointed, however, for there was very little excitement, ami the caucus nominees were elected without ft single exception. The Eighth ward members kicked on some of the officers and for city collector they combined with the Democrats, managed only to muster up seventeen votes for Mr. Wheat, which was the largest vote they could cast against any caucus man. From this time on they kept railing ana m ia? they only had their own six votes to cut. The second branch was called to order by the president. M. A. Chew, | just as the Ml Iti the tower was tolling I the hour of S o'clock. Thf? roll call showed every member present, >vJth the exception of 'Messrs. Megrail and Meyers.

The next business was the swearing 1 in of Chief Bennett's deputies, and as the thirty officers filed in and took their stand in front of the desk, they presented .a really handsome appearance. With upraised hands, each took the oath of office, ond they were once m/trn raiidv ?.? ,ln <ln?v In fllllnp iUo police court each morning. The president stated that It had been suggested that the members change their scat??. so that the ward* would fce able to sft together. Mr. Ahl'saht that the Democratic side of the house was satisfied with the present arrangement and the matter was dropped. The bond of William Nolte was offered In the sum of $1,000. with Louis A.

At nine o'clock the table was cleared of business and upon motion, the firs: branch was once again notified <hat the second branch was ready to go into a Joint session for the election of ofll ccrs. Mr. A hi carried the message to the first branch an?l that body once more took their places In the chamber. Mayor Butts presiding. The roll* of eaeh branch were again called and all found present, except Mr. McKelvey, of the first branch, an?l Messrs. Meyers and Mcgrall, of the second.

(Republicans), and Messrs. Schmidt. Btrbble, Weldobu^ch. Ahl. Oartlry. Hoe. Kaiser, Mohan. Paull. Watson and Wel^jrerbor. (Dom ocraU). Mr. Hall received all the Ra- | publican members' votes except those , of the Eighth ward. This was the point where the anxlouH crowd expected to ceo something happen on the *?>n*n<tojMl order, hut thoy were fooled. The upcoeti of Mr. Davlnnn In nominating Mr. Wheat, wan lak^ri In Rood part, jih was that of Mr. Itarhnian's naming Mr. Hail fur the posl* lion. Am the voting projcreiued n deathlike silence prevailed and when It was *?.*n that tho Mtronuth nxninst the caucus Hlnto was not sufficient to break It, the crowd Iteiran to thin out. The next office to nil was that of ; Second ward market mailer, ?n<1 Mr. Otto nominated C. 1>. Davla for th?t poxltlou. Tho roll wan callnl and lie received tlie unanimous vote. Tho clerk of tho Centre market drew out quite a bit of oratory and Interest. Mr. Paul nominated tho nrcnent Incumbent, John JJcKccvcr. mid hi? nomination vvaa eeconde-t by Mr. Schmidt. Mr. AM moved that tho nomination! be cloaed, but before It wns seconded both Mr. Dacmnan ami Mr. Davison were on the floor asking for recognition. Mr. Uachmatt wa* recognised by tho mayor and placed In nomination tho caucus nominee, Mr. William Brumelle. Mr. Davison seconded Brumelle's nomination and took occasion to explain h!? remark* in the caucus which were quoted in the paper*, inasmuch thai' a blind man was not nble to fill the position acceptably. Ho said that the attumpi by tho Democrat lo aide or the houstf to force tho election of Mr. McKeever came in very bad grace when It was remembered that a Republican council had repeatedly rlected him. and when tho Democrats hadcontrolof the body eight years ago Mr. Davison asked them to consider the candidacy of a man who had been disabled In tho fire department for the same position, they had Ignored him, and everyone of the Democratic members had voted against him merely for the purpose of upholding the caucus nominee. Mr. Davison said that he had heard enough about certain articles being sold In that market which were unfit to be put on tho table and that Is why he objected to a man having charge of affair* there, who conhl not see what was golnu on. The vote was then ordered and .Brumelle received all tho Republican votes, with the exception of Hahne and Millor, who voted with tho Democrats. The election of <*. H. Dean as city sexton. Prank Nesbltt us solicitor, Dr. 8. L. Jepson as health olBcer and William Brandt as lock-up keeper, took place in rapid succession, each receiving the unanimous vote. The various ballots on the above candidates showed thnt some of the Democratic members were not voting. After tho vote was taken for lock-up keeper. Mayor Butts ruled that those not voting should be recorded ns voting for the candidate and where there was more than one candidate, the vote of the silent ones should be credited to the on? receiving tho highest number of votes. The mayor thus established a precedent In local legislative affairs which Bhoived that he Is, n?t Blow to'catch n point. Tlie member* unanimously supported Walter Rucklcy fur assistant lock-up keeper, and Fred, ileraplu for weigh niaster. Board of Pnbllc Worki. The Mr light was expected to be made on the selection of the members of tht board ?f public works, and when the mayor declared the election of the board to be the next order of business, th" crowd pot on Its tip-toes to see all that was going on. Upon motion. I? was decided that the two Republican members In- elected flrsl. and Mr. Fair placed Mr. Charles ,K. Van Keuren, of the Third ward. * In nomination. Mr. B.iChmatm named Colonel Henry Schmulbach, of the Sixth ward, and Mr. Davison presented the name ??f <\ I?. Thompson. In doing so Mr. Davison said he could not F.iy ;i word against Mr. Schmulbach. but he merely took this action heeause the Kighth ward had not been consulted In the selection of the member of the. board from the South Side, as ha? 'been customary. Mr. Williams, of the Kighth ward, seconded Mr. Thompson's nomination. The vote was then taken and resulted in VanKeuren ret celving forty votes, Schmulbach thir[ ty-flve, and Thompson seven.

The treatment cost# $200, and tly differ Mice wan made up by his employers, Hurn-j & Church, who had already contributed. The young man's injuries ore on his check and lips, instead of his neck, as first reported, and it was thought advisable that he pet treatment aa soon j.? possible. The sympathy that was shown in his case by m.iny of Wheeling's cltiieiw is commendable, and it is lioped thai he and OHIcer Zimmerman will soi>n return well and hearty. Katie Schell, the little girl who was the first person to bo bitten by the dog. i* reported as recovering, and nothing further of a serious nature Is anticipated. Zimmerman and Bouer were the worst Idtten, and hence had more need to be alarmed. AMUSEMENTS. Another large house saw the elegant production of Lincoln J. Carter's "Heart of Chicago." at the Grand Opera House last night, and the general verdict is that no finer sensational melodrama has over been seen in Wheeling. The scenery and effects are the most realistic ever put on the stage at the Grand and the company is made up of artists of extraordinary ability.

Phil Ott, that clever comedian now playing In the funny farce-comedy, 'Town Topics." which appears at the Grand next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and Saturday matinee, has had n funny experience. It is a wellJ<nown fact that tfc" greater portion of the theatrical peop'" have a dread for the nuinhe:1 thlrti-on. Ott, on the contrary. lias a fascination for that supposed fatal number, and makes it a point to secure i?mm No. 13 at each hot-1 he stops at. and pet seat at a table where he will be the thirteenth person. is his dellKht. Purinn the enKaeement ??f "Town Topics" In a city not far from New York, two ladles called :it the thentrr- with tickets for sale for a fair. Each ticket was numbered, and some of the tickets would draw prizes. Ticket No. 1313 caught Ott'* eye. and ho bought It. while his follow actor* had a hearty laugi: at what they termed Ott's folly. The drawing took place and ticket No. 1313 drew :i handsome prise. Ott turned the laugh on them. Now all of the "Town Topic:*" company are courting the much-abused No. 13. "HmirtiArrou llif <f?."

Mr. Pettltt. in "Hands Across th?* Sea," shows that his hand haa not forgot Its cunning. for with nothing really novel except some of thr* st-i^e effects he haa made a play that Is very interesting and full of exciting scenes and situations, a stage story that catches .?:i here Just as well as In London, because of the renlly human spirit that pervades the work, the carefully formulated sentiment. the contrasts of humor and pathn*. ami tho vurlous unlqu. and happy surprises presented.
