Property Owner on Mnln Strret tlrntv Tlrnl of 'U'nlt lit II. Unless tho city council can see some way to ovcrcomo Its scruples In tho matter of tho money deposited by tho motor com pany In payment for tho paving on South Main street It will havo further litigation on Ita. hands. Property owners on Main street, who nro anxious to securo tliolr shares of the i 1,099.40 paid In by the motor compuny, havo becomo tired of waiting, nnd unless some nrrangoment Is reached whereby a speedy distribution of the money can bo mndo will tako the matter Into tho courts. At a meeting held yesterday of a number of the property owners along South Main street it was decided to make a formal de mand on tho council for tho distribution of tho money and If the nldermen Btill re fused to tako any action lo at once com mence mandamus proceedings In tho dis trict court to compel them to do so. Tho property owners take the stand that the money, having been paid In by the motor company, the council has no alternative but to mako. a distribution of It through tip city treasurer to those who nro entitled U It. The check yesterday was still In tho hands of tho city clerk, the motor company not having called for It. H Is made payable to City Treasurer True, as required by law. Attorney Wright of the motor company said yesterday: "Tho motor company has really nothing more to do wljh tho check. Wo havo turned over to tho city tho amount demanded for our share of tho paving on South Main street and It in now up to tho city authorities to make tho proper distribution to tho property owners entitled to tho tofund. Thero Is no reason why there should bo any delay In this dis tribution, ns wo have offered to sign nny waiver that the city might demand. The city cannot lose any rights It may hnvo by UiIb money being turned over to tho properly owners. It Is nil nonsense, this talk about tho motor company having some 'ulterior motive' In paying over this money. We were compelled by law to do so before wo laid tho track. Of course. If the city council thinks It might burn its fingers by taking the check I see no reason why wo should not take It hack from the rlty clerk nnd hand It over to the city treasurer. This Is n mere technicality." City Treasurer True, when asked what he would do I' tho check was presented to him by the motor compnny, said: "I should take the check so quick that It would mako tho motor company's head swim. Tho check onco In my possession I should lose no tlmo In turning into cash. What I then would do with tho cash would depend a great deal on the nctlon of tho council. I am of the opinion that thn property owners on Mnln street, to whom It belongs, should get It as soon as possthlo. It cannot, how ever, bo distributed until tho city engineer submits n schedule showing the amounts coming to each property owner. Those who paid tho original assessment for tho cost of this paving nro entitled to tho money, nnd I believe that under tho law I have authority to distribute It ns soon ns I know who are entitled lo It nnd the nmoiintH coming to each. As far as I know at pres. cut 1 have not to got nny Instructions from tho council In the matter, but then I can not say definitely what course I shall tako until I nm legally advised In the prem ises."
