Cms * Irrcpiilnrltle In the Coimlruo- tlon of the Nmv Ilonpltal Un- iMinlncftftllkn AloilioiU Of the CoinmlHslotieri. Tlio Ilospllnt n Dlftgrncc. The grand Jury npponrod In Judge Hopo- veil's court , yoUenlay afternoon about C o'clock and MibmlUcd their report , embody ing the result of their Invcstliratlons during their session of over flvo weeks. Two reports wcro submitted , rmo being on the subject of the county commissioners und county clerk , nnd the other on the , matter of the county jail. A butch of Indictments wcro also handed in. Below Is tha report of the grand Jury : State of Nebraska , Douplns county Of the September term of tbo district court of the Third judicial district of No- braslca , within nnd for the county of Douir- lae , in snld state , in the year of our Lord , The Rrnnil JuTors chosen , selected nnd sworn , in nnd for Douglas county , do hereby present their report of their doings as such grund Jury. On account of the great importance of the matters concerning which the grand Jury was ompnnellcd , nud on account of a largo number of witnesses that It be- dnmo necessary to oxamlno In order to nrrlvo ut n full understanding of said mutters , the Brand Jury has been compelled to remain in session much longer tliim was expected when wo were originally ouipitnnellou.Vo liavti tnkcn all tbo testimony that was avail able hi reference to the grading of the county hospital site , the erection of the hos pital , tha building of the rotaln.ug wall about the court house , mid the fitting of u vault In the ofllco of the clerk of the district court , and from this testimony wo llnd as follows ; 1Vo find no criminal liability resting upon any of the members of the county board in connection with the building of the county hospital , but wo find thai It was inju dicious , unbusinesslike nnd contrary to a wlsu public policy to make n verbal contract for grading Uio county hospital site at an ex travagant price , as was done , Instead of ad vertising for bids and letting the contract to the lowest bidder , und Unit by reason of this unbusinesslike- method serious loss was occa sioned the county. ! 2. Wo llnd that the nrchltoct ot the county hospital building , by Ills dilatory and evasive decisions , bus caused much delay und expense in the erection of the building. 8. Wo llnd that the contractors have shown u disposition to slight tno work , nnd have dlsoboyod the superintendent's orders to remove defective and condemned work and material from the grounds. That the bulldmgas : constructed , is in a bad condition ; that the worlc is done in u rough and un- worknmnliUo manner ; that It Is n sunous question whether the building will bo safe for occupancy , or will stand for uny great length of time ; that the county would bo better off with the material piled up ou the grouud than to have the building in its pres ent condition , and that tha building as it now stands Is a lasting monument to the stupidity nnd inofllcloncy of the contractors and n dlsprncu to Dougjas county. 4.'o llnd that tlio auptirmtandcnts In churgo of the work were remiss in tboir duties In not compelling contractors to com ply with tha plans nnd speciticritinns by withholding estimates until the orders of the fiupcrlntondonls wore oboycd. C. in the matter , of the construction of the retaining wall around the court house , wo Und that an unsuccessful attempt was made to brlho certain members of tbo county board , Ulclinrd O'ICoelTo and William J. Mount , by oltorlnc tbom money for the pur pose of securing a favorable report upon work done nnd the allowance of estimates ou the saino. 13ut tlu.t , tie | said bribes hav ing been offered moro than eighteen months prior to the empanelling of this grand Jury , criminal proceedings ngumst the parties offering said bribes uro barred by the statute of limitations. Wo further find from the testimony that the superintendent in chnrgo of thu construction or this retaining wall re ceived from the contractor extra compensa tion while acting ns supjrlntondont. 0. Wo have been unable lo find that n con tract wns made or order given to anyone to construct a balcony In tun vault of the olllco of the cleric of the district court , or to put In filing cases nbovo the balcony. Wo llnd that tbo commissioners who allowed the bill for the balcony allowed the same in undue haste und without duo consideration , and without referring the same to the proper committee before talcing action , and that bad tno war- runt. been held for ton days , as required by law , unv Irregularities might have been avoided. 7. The testimony submitted to us shows that the county commissioners In the man- ngcrncnt of the llnancial affairs of the county have in many cases shown carelessness and negligence. Wo further find that more or less business has boon dona by mutual un derstanding outsldo of the commissioners' ofllco. Wo therefore recommend that all business involving the expenditure of county funds bo dooo In the commissioners' olllco , or If by necessity the work Is ordered when the board Is not in session , the sumo sliould bo ratified or repealed and inaiio a mutter of record at the next meeting of the board. Wo also Had that the records of the county commissioners nro very incom plete and thu testimony goes to show that the reading of the minutes liasbcon deterred for months at utimo , nud wo recommend that all actions of the board shall appear upon the records nud that the sumo should bo road and approved ut oanh meeting of the board. Wo also rccouimoiid that no bills bo allowed or advances bo made on bills with out the snmo being referred to the proper commiUco of the boaril for duo consideration before taking action thereon , and that n strict compliance with the law requiring county clerks to bold warrants ton days , bo unforced , and that tbo county clerk bo re quired to furnish tha county commissioners , with voucher * for nil expenditures of money in bis ofllce. 8. Wo bollove that the payment of foes to county commissioners and county employes for attendance before the grand Jury us wit nesses is nn imposition to the tax payers of tbo coanty , r.ml we rocpmuieud not only as errand Jurors , but as citizens , ( bnt if sold fees bo allowed the pro per reduction be inado from tholr ) iuy as county employes. { i. The grand jury was unable to find many valuable paporo that wcro necessary In their Investigations , and the county cleric being - ing the authorized custodian of all papers appertaining to It la oftlou and the ofllco of the county commissioners , wo rocommona that n proper system of receipts bo established , u'ul that uo books or papers bo allowed to betaken taken from the county clerk's ' olllco uxcopt by persons entitled to tha same , nud only then by giving receipt for such books or papers . 10. Wa find that the county clerk , making n ( immorly report , bus been guilty of gross carelessness and negligence. A. Cl. Ci.iuic , foreman , The grand jury vlaitod the county jail nnd found the enino to bo as clean and orderly as ) > osilblu In its crowded condition , Wo found that the placing of a fiteam heat ing laundry and the syatain of "baking" the prisoners' clothes kee | > s the jail cainpara- lively free from vermin und diseaso. Wo llnd an follows : A portion of the Jail has never boon painted ; that some of the iron has only a priming coat o ( paint , and the walls are moro or leas smoked nnd dingy. Wp therefore recommend that the in tor lotof tbo jail bo lulutotl throughout. \ \ o also Had In BOIIIO cases that the jailors have boon obliged to attend foinulo prisoners In the bath room aud oUuwhero ; wo there fore recommend in the future , for the saka of morality and decency , that a matron bo employed ut ouea to cara for female pris oners. And that whore any member or members of f arallioR of any prisoner vUit the Jail , they bo accorded un interview scparato from other prisoners , when the rules governing tbo lubtilutlon will admit. Wo aeuiii flud that the lower corridor , or that portion sot apart for city prisoner * . Is constructed to accomiuodato twenty-four Itonwnt , but the average number confined Is from forty to sixty , therefore nucensitatlni' the slcepUig on tbo Iron floor , and complaint lias been made of un ituufflcionoy of blank- ou. Wo recommend that the sheriff supply u proper iH-mbor of blanttaU. Aud wo further recommend that the city should take Immediate action towards bnltd- In g a city jail. Htion G. CJ.ATIK , Foreman.

It Is rcnortcd that a deal is now jiondlng which means no less than tbo absorption of the Fremont , KIkhorn & Missouri Valley by the Union Pncillc. The report Is to the effect that the Elkhorn lias not been a money making medium at any time , or to that extent ua to return a reason able ronumcratlon on the money tied up In the concern. The lines and the road proper are In a strong competitive territory. Not alone this but the provisions of the charter under which its franchise woa grouted coin- polls the Northwestern to maintain u sepa rate and dUtinqt management from the Northwestern proper. It is now stated that a deal is pending whereby the Union Pacific will take direct control of the road and operate it in con junction with its own lines. Inquiry was made at tbo headquarters of both thu intcr.csU > d lines , but the oDlcluls professed to know nothing ofsuch nn under taking. The Klkhora system. Involves about fourteen hundred mile * of road and aside from having a line tapping the grain bolt of Nebraska , ulso has a direct line to the oil nnd coal fluids of Wyoming. General Manager Hurt , of the Elkhorn , is at present la Chicago cage , and tha story goes that It Is there in connection with the consolidation. Practical railroad men outside of the Elkhorn - horn and Union Pacific circles were ques tioned concerning the result of the deal should It be made , and all wcro a unit In ex pressing their opinion that inasmuch as a close truflle armogemout had been formed between the Northwestern & Union Paclllc , there would bo DO grounds for rivalry or competition between the two lines , nnd In consrqucnco n fnrgo saving nf money lh t U paid out to maintain a separate management , would necessarily follow.
