The problem of. the session was presented > y.Mr.Vullsc.illing \ uptho petition demind- iiBtho resignation of Superintendent Me- jiiiKhton. After the rending of the pub- shed charge ? contained In the petition Ir. Wells asked If Mr. MeNautfh- on had lllcd Ills rcslirnatlon , nnd upon ) clifr ) ansucred that ho liad not , noved that ho bo requested nnd icquircd to nako answer to these charges nnd 11 lo the anio with the secretary hy noon tomorrow , luntcrkcconded the motion. Mr. Blaxsini said ho was very much sur- niscd at thH course of action. Dr. Me- auRhton liad always been unanimously eeled by all the school boards durinp tlio > ast seven years. In May , a year ago , when 10 was ic-elcited , Mr. SclioentKon moved to ncicasu his salapj J.JOO bccnuso ho said he > cllcvcd no was earning more , and botn Veils and ho voted for him and the increase. ? ho manner In which the cvi- lenco upon nhioh these ctmrpes ire bused was obtained is a disgrace anil in quisitorial and by following such aproc'duro ' is these gentlemen have followed the best nan in Council Bluffs could ho convlctcj and inngccl. Thcso remarks elicited n great deal of npplauso lioin thu people In tbo ImlHvay. Air. Schocntgen admitted that lie had voted 'orthe superintendent's ' reelection and for ils Increase ) ot salary , hut then ho did not tnoxvii the man. Ho was sorry for it and vould never do it again. Mr. AVollssaid bo was not willing to dis cuss the matter. All the board had to do low was to consider the charges made In the [ ictition , Mr. Illaxslm said there were a number of men whoso names appeared to these charges rtho denied that they had. ever read them or knew their contents. They claim they wcro milled , The gentlemen In the hoard who i.id instigated the charges have prejudged McNuugnton and they want to bold a sham session of a sham court hero that Is a creator outrngcon public decency than the "Kangaroo Court" Iruthe city Jail. Mr. Wultosaid ho concurred In what Air. Dlaxslm said , and that two of the men who ; iad signed Iho charges had been dogged for LWO dojs to get tlicin to do so , and then had been deceived and trapped into doing so , Ho had several letters from ISIr. Schocntpcn to the president of. the board at Cedar Falls , In , asking for some private information concern ing McXaughton , ana got in reply a ringing endorsement of the professor. Ho read tlio letter with great deliberation and created a sensation. Ho tdso stated that ho had been assured by Prof , i'routy that Wells , Schocnt- nnd Hunter had como to him at his farm n few days ago and asked him to sign an affi davit detrimental to JlcKaughton , but that lie had declined , and asserted that ho could say nothing against McNaughton , that Ills reputation , m Council Bluffs was made and Is unassailable. .After rending u letter from 1'rof. ( Jiish In reference to a similar appeal , Mr. "Wnltc declared ho would vote against the resolution asking for an investigation. Mr , Hunter asserted that such a dclara- tlouwas an evidence of the willingness of the gentleman to violate his oath of olileo. Mr. Waite denied this , and asserted Ids willingness to have JluNaughton tried be fore the board , but the law did not say that the tild bhouldbo conducted beforoacoiut that liad already Judged him guilty. "Is It fair , Mr. Chairman , " inq.uired Rlr. Dlaxslm with preat earnestness , "to nslc the man to como before thes 3 gentlemen whom I know tiersonally to have gene as many as llvo times In a single day to touchers who failed ro-clcitlon nnd urged them to sign vicious tales 1 I will oppose the resolution to the bit ter end. " PrcsidentSlcwart stated that hohad tallied to Unco of the gentlemen ivho had signed the charges and they told 1dm they did not understanil what they.wcro signing and since their publication did not caio to push the In quiry , Ho believed there , was something In the legal question concerning the right of the board to try the superintendent and ho be lieved It did not have the power. The princi pals and touchers are selected , but the super intendent Is elected and becomes a member of the board. Ho vould vote against tbo inotjon. Mr , Blaxslm asked for Information as to whether tno petition referred to James BIc- Naughton ns superintendent of the city schools , and being in formed that It referred to "James McN'uuifhton , the person who Is now claiming to bo superintendent , " etc. , said that If the board refused to admit that Mc Naughton was superintendent then ttiey had no right to try Win. A vote was then taken and resulted la 3 to 3 , and was declared lost. Mr , Hunter moved that the charge bo taken up for consideration. Lost hy the snmo veto. Hunter then moved that a time bo llxed for hearing the charges. Lost by the same tlo vote. vote.Wells Wells moved that when the board adjourn It bo until tomorrow evening nt S o'clock , when n special meeting shall beheld for the purpose of considering the charges against Superintendent Mc 'aughton , and the secre tary bo instructed to notify McXaughton. Thuhullot was the same unbroken tlo. and It was evident that there was no possibility of the tie being broken , Wells moved to tukuup the regular order of business , nnd tbo report of the teachers' committee was made by Chairman Schoentgcn , Prof. C. S. ilydo had not reported for duty and the committee recommended dispensing with the services nnd let the four teachers in the idea school do the work for the ensuing year. The crowded condition oftho Washingtonavcnuo and Pierce street schools was considered , and the opening of another room in the Picrco street building and engaging o church build ing near the Twentieth uvenuo building to relieve the crowd tbero was recommended , to bo fixed up nt once. The recommendation was concurred In after I\Ir. \ llluxlma hud broiiehtHIup tbo question of Mr. Schocntgon's resig nation as chairman of the teachers' commtt- tco an dvvas assured by the gentleman that ho had not resigned. ' 1'ho bids to supply coal and fuel for the year were opened. Thorn were numerous bid * , and at 11 o'clock the board proceeded to open them and at tlio conclusion of the read Ing proceeded to the election of secretary and treasurer for the ensuing year , Will Sno Tor Heavy Damages.
