Postmaster Treynor Is much Interested In
tho bill Introduced In tho house of repre
sentatives by Congressman Smith, authoriz
ing the purchase of the ground directly
wo3t of tho poMofllcc In this city at a cost
not to exceed J 10,000.
This bill Is the preliminary step In the
move to ask of congress an appropriation
for the erection of n much-needed addition
to the federal building. Tho plan suggested
Is to add a west wing to tho present build
ing, and for this tho acquisition of thn
property on the west Is necessary.
Speaking of the bill yesterday, Postmas
ter Treynor said: "I am anxious this bill
Introduced by Congressman Smith should
go through, ah tho postofllcc, as It now Is, is
wholly Inadequate tor the business handled.
Too forco Is handicapped In Its work owing
to the cramped quarters, and the erection
of tho proposed addition has long been do
sired. Tho business of the Council Uluffs
postofflco has increased materially since
this building was erected, and the estab
lishment of four rural routes has naturally
Increased tho volume of mall to bo bandied
hero. Our present quarters aro too small,
and I hope that congress soon will sco Its
way to grant nn appropriation for the du
atrcd addition."
with the result that when yesterday rolled
around he was In need of moro money.
He called upon Slough for the 1B. Slough
looked at the old man and asked him what
ho referred to. Stumpf again told blm he
would like to have the $15 he had en
trusted to his sato keeping. Slough told
Stumpf he was evidently dreaming, as ho
had not placed any money In his care.
To all of Stumpfs entreaties Slough turned
a deaf car and denied ever having had the
money. Stumpf then applied to the police
and Slough's arrest followed. Several
patrons of the restaurant who saw Stumpt
with tho money and later heard him say
ho had placed It for safe keeping with
Slough have been cited as witnesses.
