The report that the Blult City Electric
Unlit and Ons company has purchased the
electric lighting plant of the Council Bluffs
Oas and Electric company la denied by J. 1".
Grecnshlclds, secretary of tho former com
pany. Ho said yesterday: "Theru is no
truth In tho report that our company has
bought out tho electric lighting plaut of
tho old company, although we may and
probably will purchase it- At tho tlmo
that wo secured tho contract for tho city
lighting and tho pcoplo of Council Bluffs
voted to glvo us a franchise wo submitted
a proposition to tho old company to buy Its
clectri.-, lighting plant and to pay for it
with stock in our company. Tho proposl
Hon was favorably received by the direc
tors of tho old company, but a3 yet th'e
purchase has not been consummated.
"We expect to bo soon ready to do busl
ncss, but do not caro to mako our plans
public until tho Btoclc of our company Is
Issued and subscribed for. Wo already
havo bidders for a good deal of It and
qutto a bunch of tho stock will bo held by
Council Ululfs people. Tho report that tho
stockholders In tho Omaha Street Hallway
company are Interested financially in our
company is without foundation."
Whun auked If his company intended to
secure power from Omaha, Mr. Orccnshlelds
said: "As to that I cannot speak author
Itatlvcly at present. In tho event of our
buying the electric lighting plant of tho
old company we will bo obliged to put In
entirely now machinery, but will bo ablo
to use part of tho poles nnd wiring now
used by it. Wo hope to mako au nrrango
ment with tho motor company whereby wo
can supply It with power for lighting its
resort ut I.ako Maim v.-a nnd negotiations
to that end are now pending. About all 1
can say of a definite nature now Is that wo
will certainly bo prepared before tho
proper tlmo comes to take caro of our con

TAX rilltltr.T AMI HIS CONTllACT.
County Bourd 'Will llntc n Knotty
((ucnIIoii to I'iiin Upon,
A matter that la expected to como up nt
the present session of tho Hoard of County
Supervisors la that of tho contract en
tered Into over a year ago by tho board
with K. M. Cunningham of Indiana to "fer
ret" out property which wns llnblo to but
had escaped taxation. Tho contract pro
vides that Cunningham shall rccclvo 60
per cent of all moneys recovered by the
county through his efforts. Subsequent to
tho board entering Into this contract the
statu legislature enacted u law declaring
all such contracts illegal, null and void
unless within thirty days utter tho passage
of tho act tho persons holding tho con
tract accepted lu writing 15 per cent us
full remuneration for their work.
Mrj. Cunningham, who assisted her hus
band hero in tho work of ferreting out
taxable property, arrived in the city yes
terday, after nu absence of several months,
nnd Mr. Cunningham la expected horo by
tho end of the week. In answer to in
quiries, Mrs. Cunningham said they ex
pected to mako a report next week to tho
board of tho property which they have dis
covered as liable to taxation, but which
has novcr been assessed. She also said
that Mr.' Cunningham expected to bo paid
tho 50 per cent as provided for by his con
tract with tho board, and that ait far as
ho was concerned, ho had paid no nttentlon
to tho net of the lcglslnturo any more than
If It had novcr been parsed. Mr. Cunning
ham is nlso engaged lu the samo work In
Krcinont county, whero ho has a CO per cent
contract.
Tho constitutionality of tho net abrogat
ing the contracts previously entered into
by county boards in different parts of tho
state has been attacked by some of tho
tax ferrets, as they havo como to-bo styled,
but tho question has not yet been passed
upon by tho supremo court.
County Attorney Klllpaek gavo It as his
opinion yesterday that In view of tho lnw
passed by tho legislature, tho county board
would have no authority to pay Cunningham
CO per cent of any moneys It might recover
through his efforts. Any payment above
15 per cent, ho believed, would bo Illegal.
There would nlso bo a question whother the
board'a contract with Cunningham has not
becomo nullllled owing to Cunningham not
having filed u vrllten acceptance of 15
per cent within tho required thirty days
after the passago of tho act.
When afcked about tho matter yesterday,
tho members of tho Board of County Super
visors stated that they had not paid it
any attention and could not say what they
would dj until It was formally presented
beforo them.
