Sioux City, Oct. 28—Charles Kemp,
a street car conductor was killed, and
fifteen passengers were injtired to-
night at Fourth and Division streets
when a Burlington engine struck the
car In the center.
Kemp went forward to signal a
clear track. A switch engine was In
view followed by the Burlington en-
gine on its way to a roundhouse.
When the switch engine passed

Long an 1 Deep Trunk Sewer.
In the proposed sewer bond )ssue
adopted6 byf‘the £,lV£
a trunk sewer In El Paso deep enough
to reach all basements l.i the city,
deep basements under bust, ess blocks
■which can not now be reached.
The proposal is to install a trunk
sewer, fourteen feet deep, from
Durango street to the sewage treat-
ment plant Iu the- eastern part of the
city. Three miles Will be the Jeogth
* the trunk sewer. The depth ot
fourteen feet, which will be the depth
it will be installed, will be deep
enough to drain every basement, as
Weil as furnishing an outlet for
sewage from old Fort Bliss and Sun-
set Heights, which have been named
in the estimates. In addition the
sewer bonds will furnish money for
laterals for Tobin's addition. East LI
Paso and Highland Park; and a sur-
plC of funds will be left for sewer
improvements for new districts with
in the city proper. In fact it will
benefit or cover 4he entire city.
Eliminate Tao Pump Plants.
This trunk sewer line would be thd
means of doing away with two puMP-
ing stations, which would mean a
saving of $600 a month, ays City.
Engineer Nunn, more thin enough
to pay the annual Interest on the cost
of the trunk seer, $100,000.
It Is proposed to discontinue the
pumping station, a pumping *™P'
located one-half block Mjt of
K1 Paso street on San Antonio street
in the alley. The other Pimping sta-
tion which It* Is proposed to elimi-
nate is on Estrella street in East El
Paso.
A big trunk sewer sunk fourteen
feet deep, v 1 give the south portion
of the city, or Chlhuahualta, a sewer
system, as there exists none there
now worthy of the name.
With the new Hotel Paso del Norte
and all other large buildings with
deep basements, and all large build-
ings to be erected In future, a deep
trunk sewer could connect, and dio
away with the present unsatisfactory
and losing condition. ✓
The proposed bond issue of $160.-
000 for the sewer system will be di-
vided, $100,000 for the trunk sewer
a..d $60,000 for la^rals in the addi-
tions. ' „
Bonds for Streets.
For improvement on certain streets
.an issue of $50,000 in bonds ls pro-
posed. El.Paso today has 163 miles
of streets, ranging In condition from
the best to some that are Impassable,
practically, for traffic. The total of
15:; miles will probably reach 180
miles by this date next year. Of the
155 miles at present, approximately
thirty miles are paved, sixty miles
that are In good condition for traf-
fic anil approximately thirty miles
more that can be put In good condi-
tion with the proposed $60,000 from
the sale of bonds. These thirty miles
of streets are now in deplorable con-
dition, and a bond issue is necessary
to furnish the* needed $50,000.
To Reduce Water late.
Of the proposed issue of $400,000.
the sum of $200,000 is Intended for
beterments in the water plant, which
will mean a reduction in the rate to
consumers, and at the same time fur-
nish mesa water.
Of the $2C0,000 proposed, one-hall
is to go to pay off the vendor lien
notes which the city gave when It
bought the water plant and system.
The plant cost the city $151,000. but
the sum of $50,000 has already been
cared for. leaving $100,000 due. The
bonds will pay this, and leave an-
other $100,000 for Improvement *»
plant, which will mean new ma-
chinery, and for new mains.
The cltv has expended at the plant
proper during the past year and a
half $176.000- This money repre-.
gents revenue from water consumers
and $90,000 left from the bond
Issue of two years ago.
It has been necessary to Isy eight
and ten-inch water mains on streets
being paved, and the same for all
streets to be paved in future, for the
reason that many streets .have two
to four-inch pipe lines, wholly In-
adequate for the future. These must
be replaced by six. eight and ten-

and save money to the water confLftght, except that it began yesterday
thirty morning, were available at a late
sumer, as a reduction from
cents to twenty cents a thousand
means a large difference in favor of
the consumer.
The water rate was raised to thirty
cents In order to enable the city to
get mesa water. Now with a bond
Issue the raU can be lower.d and the
people enjoy mesa water as well.
To Run Forty Years.
The proposed bond Issue of $400,-
000 for the three divisions named Is
to run for forty years, and it Is ex-
pected they will sell at a premium,
and with an Interest rate of not
higher than five per cent.
It has become a fixed principle
with the people of modern munici-
palities that the future population,
the population of twenty to forty
years to come, should bear a part of
the expense of Improvements, es-
peclally when those improvements
will redound in part to-them. The
old theory that one generation has
no right to saddle debt on future
generations has been exploded by all
thinking and fair-minded men, and
the future generation Is asked to
share some of the costs of making a
beautiful and sanitary and modern
city, improvements which they will
enjoy as well as those who are active
In the life of the city today.
It Is the hope of many taxpayers
who have given the proposed bond
issue any study that the entire Issue
will be authorized by the 'ote today-
The matter must be settled by prop-
erty owners, as only property owners
have a vote. Polls will open this
morning at 7 O’clock-

At O'Rourkes
hour last night. It is reported that
preparations are being ntade at the
state capital to send reinforcements
to Colonel Castro's command.
Rebels Reported East.
Colonel Marcel Caraveo, Pascual
Orozco's chief lieutenant, is reported
as moving west along the river oppo-
site Sierra Blanca with a force of men.
Mexican secret service men declared
yesterday that Caraveo Is in that sec-
tion of the country, but that he has
only a small body of Red Flaggers
under him. No word has been receiv-
ed in regard to the campaign being
made by General Jose 'de la l.uz
Blanco against Antonio Rojas and his
band of Red Flaggers, who are said
to have returned to the mountains
west of Pearson.
Work will begin within two or three
days on the repairing of the Mexico
North-Western railroad, between
Pearson and Ciudad Juarez. Trains
will be. operating over the whole road,
it is expected, within a month, and
possibly sooner.
Re-opening Important.
The decision to reopen the Juarez-
Pearson division of the road was
reached yesterday morning by North-
Western officials. The re-opening of
the lino will mean much to the Ameri-
cans now in the interior. With the
suspension of business on the Nation-
al lines, the cutting of the North-
Western railroad by the rebels left
the American colonies In Chihuahua
practically Isolated.
Sixty-three Bridges Out,
There are sixty-three bridges be-
tween here and Pearson that will have
to be repaired. The roadbed has not
been damaged. These bridges were
burned by the Red Flaggers and be-
cause of this, and threats made by the

the work of repairing the line will be
pushed through as soon as possible.
No estimate of the cost of the repair
work has been made.
Work Will Be Rushed.
It will depend on the available num-
ber of men as to how soon trains will
be again operating over the Juarez-
E1 Paso division. The railroad com-
pany will rush the work as much A
possible and It Is expected that, with-
in three weeks time, the line will
again be in operation.
The North-Western is the only line
operating out of Juarez south on
which the officials have continually
worked to kee pthe line open. Work-
ing against rains and Red Flaggers,
the Nurth-Weste.rn officials have, at
large expense and -much work, man-

Much freight has piled up at both
ends of the division. There are large
quantities of supplies destined for
■Chihuah.ua points that are being held
in El Paso and these will be rushed
down as soon as the line Is open. The
first work to be done will be the re-
pairing of the telegraph line, so that
Juarez will be in direct communica-
tion with Madera and thence to Chi-
huahua.

Cameron In Captivity Pared Sot Badly.
Mr. Cameron stated last evening that
lie fared fairly well while a prisoner.
He was reluctant to speak of the expe-

as he was weary and desired to lie at his

Associated Press Dispatch.
London. Oct.. 28-.—An Interesting ques-
tion at the present moment ia the where-
abouts of the Turkish army, of which
nothing definite Is known.
The news that Eski Paha has been taken
by the Bulgarian cavalry, apparently
without resistance, shows thut Nazim
Pasha's army is not where it was sup-
posed to have been-oh the line between
Kuleillburgas and Luieburgas. It may
me further went, in the direction of
Hemotica, but It is generally supposed
that it has retired from the lino of the
railway and entrenched itself on the long
line between Demoticu aud Chorlu.
Constantinople despatches continue to
speak of the readiness of tho Turkish
army to take the offensive. In any case
a few days must see something decisive.
The victorious Bulgarian army is advanc-
ing. It has occupied Bunarhtasar and is
marching towards KiileiUburgas. It is
reported that tho Bulgarians have biowu
up a bridge over the* Chorlu river, show-
ing that the turning movement is mak-
ing rapid progress.
Drive Turks From Kurope.
I'nless the Turks are able to take the
offensive vigorously, the present indica-
tion Is that they will be driven out of
Europe altogether, failing Interference by
the powers at the present stage to end
the war, as happened in the Russian
campaign against Turkey iu 1828 and
1878, when Russia had captured Adrian-
ople and was at the gates of Cons tan-
in a country where there are only
thirteen people to the square mile.
This i* mostly in the old Indian coun-
try and was brought about by the
war on the Indians. The cause *or

Reserve f» Needed.
“What we now need is a reserve.
Along this line we are taking up the
matter of bettering the National
Guard by sending to it regular army
officers to give instruction. In the
regular army we are trying to limit
Tnou
the time of service. This is being
done ho that when a man becomes
an efficient soldier he can be put on
the reserve list. The old idea of
keeping a man in the army as long
as possible only makes a large ex
pehfte without increasing the effi-
ciency of the army. We keep a man
in the army for thirty years and then
retire him on pay that is equal to
that of four recruits. We want to
keep the non-commissioned officers
hut, if a man has been In the serv-
ice thirty years and has not risen
from the rank of ft non-commissioned
officer, Jt Is far better to have new
recruits in. Another plan to help
huikl up a reserve* force in to have
the graduates of military institutes
enter the army as officers- Those
who were recommended by t mili-
tary instructors of the institutes
would he given a commission for one
year and then discharged with *
tificate to command volunteer

Ills pinna for the rest of the campaign
depend upon the outcome of Wednesday
night’s joiirnye to New York. “I'll see
how It goes then,” he wild,. "If I get
through that all right, l may make p
few more speeches.”
