and linn DeeliUs to Hear
Hie Hvldi'iico.
Tho opponents of tho Oakland
avenue '
High school site scored a point over its sup
porters yesterday afternoon, when County
Superintendent Mc.Manus overruled the mo
tion made by the former to dismiss the ac
tl n In which tho echrol board appeared as
defendant. The taking of the evidence on
tho slrlo of the school board will begin this
morning In the district court room, which
has been given up by Judge Smith for tho
bcnellt of the county superintendent's court.
The evidence of the plaintiffs Is all In.
At lu conclusion several days aso the de
fendants filed a motion to dismiss on tho
ground that no evidenco had been Intro
duced to show any i onion why the Oakland
avenue, site should not be selected or any
improper conduct on the part of tho board
who selected It. The objection was alio
made that tho only evidence Introduced by
tho plalntllfs was that taken nearly a year
it 40 upon another case nnd (is to conditions
existing ut that time only.
The urgumrnfs on tho motion to dismiss
wcro made yesterday, occupying almcat tl.o
entire day. It contained a groat deal of
verbal sparring, Attorney I. N. Fllcklnger
calling the Oakland avenue adherents "ob
structionists," and In turn being branded
by them a "pottlfogger" and other unpleas
ant things.
The decUlon of tho county superintendent
seen to Indicate his belief that tho oppo
nents of tho Oakland avenue site havo
made a prima facie case, which tho other
side must now proceed to demolish. A be
ginning will bo made at it this morning.
Subpoenas wcro served last evening on Su
perintendent llnydcn, City Clerk N., C. Phil
lips and Dlrertors Charles Swalne, J. P.
Hcsj, Donald AIncrac, Jr., and J. K. Cooper.

Tho Council HI tiffs Gas and Klcctrlo
Light company submits tho following
proposition for tho price of gas to the city
of Council Illuffs and its Inhabitants, from

nished as heretofore, nt $1.00 per 1,000 feet,
with a reduction of 10 cents on each 1,000
when paid for on or before the 10th of
each month.
Provided, that whenever tho consumption
shall In nny year equal 35 per cent moro
than that for tho twelve months ending

This proposition was voted upon, the com
mittee, consisting 6f Aldermen Clark, Boyer
and AIcDonald, hnvlng recommended Its ac
ceptance. Only Lovett, besides the threo
committeemen, voted In favor, while Brown,
Hammer, Hubcr and Lougee voted against
Its ncccptance. It Was declared lost.
Mdcrmcu Hammer, BroWn nnd Lovett
mado a report of their findings In regard to
the Fifth avenuo brldgo ncrcss Indian creek
to tho effect that It was unsafe and had been
condemned by them as unfit for tho uso ot
tho public. George F. Wright addressed the
council In lehalf of tho Alotor company,
stating that the width of tho bridge pro
posed to bo built had been nrbltrarlly fixed
at forty-two feet, and that as the compnny
could not uso more than eight feet, there
was no fairness In compelling It to bear half
of tho expense. If a width of eighty-four
feot had been decided upon ho supposed the
company would etlll havo been required to
pay half, which would bo manifestly unfair.
Ho proposed that tho company pay $800 of
tho $2,700 which the brldgo Is to cost. AIc
Donald moved that this proposition be ac
cepted. Clark seconded tho motion and they
two, with Hammer and i,ougco, succeeded In
adopting It In spite of tho opposing votes of
Boyer, Brown nnd Lovett. The condemna
tion report was then referred hack to tho
commltteo to bo amendod so as to provldo
for tho temporary strengthening of tho old
bridge until a new ono could bo provided.
