Tlio defalcations of the late city treasure
continue to develop now complications , am
It Is now among the possibilities that th
city ulll never tcctiro full Indemnity fo
the los B which have been suntaliied b ;
reason of his Irregularities. It also devel
ops tint the iiegllRcnco of Comptrolle
Olsen Is likely to cut i considerable flsur
In tlie transaction , and that the false re
ports \\hlcli he has submitted to the clt
council and others , relative to the affair
of the treasurer's olllcc , will ho taken ail
\antagj of by the bondsmen In an effort t
show contributory neBllseiiLe on the part c
the city through IU comptroller.
The nio t accurate estimate that has bee
made thus far Indicates that the total short
age of Mr llolln is slightly le s than $33,001
Of this , $ S ISC 8J , which consisted of per
sonal accommodations out of the clt } fundi
has been collected since Juno IS. Th
bondsmen expect tint they will eventual !
be able to collect about $3,000 more , o
enouKli to bring the total shortage , v > hlc'
will have to be made up by the bondsmei
to $21 000
This estimate docs not take Into consider :
tlon the $10.000 now In the Mldhnd Stal
bink , some of which may never bo paid ovc
to the city When Treasurer Uumont too
charge of the oltlce ho made a formal ill
mind on all the banks w.hero cltj fund
were doposlled for the entire amounts <
the d pis la In cash These were honore
by all the banks except the Mldhnd , whlc
refused to turn over a cent 'I he rcfii i
was bas"d on the ground that the bink ha
a chlrn agilnst Mr llolln for over $501
and tint th = > concern would not mal.e an
settlcm nt until this was taken Into cot
cldcratlon.
INVITKD TO 00 INTO COURT.
The matter ran along until ye terda ;
vthcu Mi Dumont , together with a comml
tee of the bondsmen , cill'd at the bink an
again demundul the funds They weie mi
with the same answer as befoi , and furtl
crmore rrank li Johnson , acting for tl
bank , stated that the nnswct was llml , an
would not be qualified except through tl
medium of th' courts 'Ibis was all tl
satisfaction that could be obtained , and tl
money Is still In the custody of the bank
In speaking of the action of the bank , M
Johnson said that It was the only conrso 1
which he could protect himself More th.
that there was not n dollar of city funds <
deposit In the bank as city funds The bit
held claims against llvnry Holln amountli
to between $5,000 and $ f > 000 and the depos
was primarily as security for that amour
Mr llolln had pi iced the money there as
personal deposit and not as city mono
The bank had been assured bj Its attorne ;
that the city had no claim upon the moiie
except such as might remain utter the bat
claim Ind bo-n vatlslleJ The bank \ou
resist any attempt to collect the money I
the city
Outside of the complication In regard
the Midland deposit certain of Mr llolln
bondsmer are authority for the stateme
that they lia\o a cleir case of contribute
negligence against the city. They contei
that nosane hnslnc5s man would Ime go ;
on Mr llollu's second term bond If the re
condition of affairs had been known
was the duty of the comptroller to check i
the ofllco at the end of the first term ai
detect any Irregularities. Olsen report
that ho had checked the olllco and th
everything was In perfect condition Su
sequent developments had Indicated that
did not check the olllco and that there was
shortage of at le-ut $15,000 nt the time
made his report
OI/5I3N IS DLAMCD
Even this jear , when reports of Mr Ilollt
dissipation and Hoard of Trade speculatlo
reached the bondsmen , Mr Olsen continu
to assure them that all was as It should
and that tholr feais were not well founds
In his special rejort In May he alllrmed th
the treasurer's oiricc was In first class orcli
anil even on the night before the bondsm
begun their Investigation Olsen visited the
nml emlcdvo ed to reassure them by tl
clarlng that ho had gone through the olll
thoroughly i > ml that It was all right
In addition to all this It promises to bo
difficult problem to adjust the shortage 1 ;
twcon the three sets of Ilolln's bondsm
who arc collaterally responsible. It is ct
tain that $9,000 of the amount came out
the school fund This Is mono } which Ho ]
took fcr his own use Then there a
tickets bearing 121 Wlttlg's name vvhl
servo as a reminder that Wlttlg , at the tli
of his death , owed the cltj $1,500 on 1
saloon licenses. The bundsmen say that tl
money can never bo collected and that soi
dispute may arise as to which bondsmen a
liable for the amount ,
The most ECrlous complication Is likely
arUo between the bandsmen of the first a
the second term Many of the slips In t
drawer had no date , and It will bo Impos
ble for the city to provo when they we
put there. The bondsmen for the seco
term may claim that they belong to t
first term , whllo the first term bondsm
can assert with equal force that they rcpi
sent Irregularities which occurred after th
vvcro relieved of responsibility. The cl
will not be in a portion to successfully co
trovcrt either claLm and may possibly e
Joy the pleasure of holding the tack.
In case tlio plea of contributory negllgcn
qn the pnrt of the comptroller should be u
held by the courts the clt ) will have no i
lief except fur 'possible a portion of t
amount Chen's , bond Is only In the si :

WAS ONLY AN IDLE RUMOR.
No Hollnnrn I'lnrril In the llrport tlmt
AI uiiiRrr Itnlicork In to He Supplanted.
About once a year the rumor Is revived
that W. N Habcock , general manager of the
Union Stock Yards company , South Omaha ,
Is to be supplanted by another man who will
show lc s favoritism to certain railroads , as
l.s alleged In Ilabcock'n case , and do more for
the Interests of the company In Inducing live
stock shlpmrnts.
The latest story as to the contemplated
change was telegraphed broadcast over the
country a few days ago. Investigation falls
to show any foundation for the story that
some of the railroads were trying to force
Mr. Ilabcock out.
A reprnsentatlve of the Ilurllngton said
that so far as he knew there was no disposi
tion on the part of his company to antagonize
Mr Ilabcock In on > way , on the theory that
the general manager of the stock yards didn't
ciro which reid secured the picking house
product , being only Interested In the receipt
of live stock which would permit the pickers
o run full-handed
Tlio Chicago Northweste-n Is the tall
ender In the hauling of packing house product
ast , although with the Union 1'aclflc an ]
lurllngton It hauls more stock to the South
Onmhi market than either the Milwaukee
or Hock Island , and very often exceeds the
"Jnlon 1'aclflc In the number of cars do-
Ivored at the jards
Considerable objection Is hear ! In ccrtalr
railroad centers against the Milwaukee and
lock Island hauling the bulk of the packing
house product to Chicago , when , as n mallei
of fict , they deliver to the ) ards less itocl'
han the other roads mentioned three tc

ientative In Omaha ot the various road :

The Board of nducatlon last night elected
Prank 1) ) . Cooper of DCS Molnes as auperliv
temlcnt of the public schools of Omaha fet
a term of two years , at $3COO a ) ear. Ai
was predicted In ) esiterda's Hoc , the conv
blnatlon was In perfect working order befori
the roll was called. Thomas fell Into ltn <
for Cooper , thus making the first ballo
stand : Cooper , 9 ; Marble , G. Mr. Coopei
was formally declared elected , and uftci
adjusting the length of his term and tin
salary , the board adjourned for one week
Preceding the billet the minutes of thi
previous adjourned meeting were approved
Cramblett and Johnson alone objecting
This made the meeting an adjourned scs
slon , Instead of the special meeting whlcl
was called by President Akin ) csterday nft
crnoon. Durgcss contended that this belni
the cise , the regular order of business shoul <
be cilled , but ho was overruled , and a me
tlon to proceed to ballot prevailed.
Lunt , Hurgess and Tukey demanded tha
some Information should be given concern
Ing the candidates who were to be % ote
for. Tukey tald that hla could net bo con
sldercd an unreasonable request It vva ;
well understood tint the majority propo cite
to vote for Mr. Cooper , but there were si :
or seven members who had never seen am
knew absolutely nothing cancelling his qu tl
Ideations for the ofilce There was no rca
EOII why his candidacy should be Investei
with so much mstory , and it was enl ;
right that some of his supporters should In
form the other members In regird to hi
experience and qualUlcatl-in. The anxlet ;
for Information , however , was passed over
and Mr. Cooper's mine was not nicntloiici
until the result of the billet was read
riXnD THR TURM AT TWO YEAHS.
liurgess give notice that at the next meet
Ing he would move for a reconsideration o
the vote. To an Inquiry from Proslden
Akin as to whether he hid voted with th
majority , Iluigess replied by reading th
rule which stated that a mo'Ion to reconslcle
need not be made by one of the majorit :
when the vote was by ballot Pre'lden
Akin Insisted on ruling the motion to re
consider out of order
A resolution by Kdwards provide 1 tha
t'lo election of Mr Cooper should be dechre
to be for two ) ears. Several members ot
jcctcd , on the giound that this should hav
been done before the ballot was taken , bti
they were overruled , and the resolution wa
adopted by the same vote , 0 to G
Lunt moved that the salary of the supei
Intendent be fixed at $3000 $ per ) car. Ed
wards had another resolution In his Insld
I ocl ct , which placed the salar ) at $3 G0 (
and tMs ho offered as an amendment Th
resilutlon was debated at some length Hut
gcss remarkel that there were several mem
btrs of the board who had been demandln
rct'cnchment In sei'on and out of seasor
and now was a good time for them to carr
their principles Into effect The board ho ,
laU Trank A Pltzpatrlck $1,000 a year an
Superintendent Marble $3 GOO , because the
were men of national reputation. The ma
who hid Just been electPd might be as ca
pable < and efficient as his predecessors , bu
he lacked their reputation He argued thn
tie salary should be placed at $3,000 tint
the board had had an opportunity to ascei
tain whether tie new mnn was worth moj
than that amount > '
Burgess and Tukey urgeJ that the rules t
the boird provided that no expenditure c
more than $100 could be orderel at the sam
meeting of the board at which the resolutlo
providing for It was Introduced and tlu
the question of salary must therefore II
over until the next meeting The chair rule
against them and Superintendent Cooper
salary was fixed at $3,600 by the same nln
vote- that elected him.
