"We don't want any hospital Job on our hands , " remarked Commissioner Jenkins yes terday In speaking of the work of the county board In reference to the Platte canal propo sition. The matter now stands before the commis sioners In the form of several knotty legal points and It Is pretty generally conceded by the members of the county board that It will take at least three weeks to unravel the difficulties. A session was held behind olosij. doors Monday "afternoon'at which the petition signed by 5,000 voters was read. The board then formulated several legal propositions which have been submitted to constitutional lawyers and Is awaiting their opinions. As these gentlemen virtually pass upon the validity of bonds , the Issue of which may range from $1,500,000 to $2,300,000 , no Immediate response Is expected. Among the propositions which have been and will be raised for solution Is the ques tion as to whether the commissioners by the appointment of trustees cm divest themselves of the custody of county property In contra vention of section 323 , chapter 18 , of the statutes , which make the county board guardian of county property. It Is also made a point that the judges have no authority to appoint trustees. These and other similar questions are being prepared for counsel to pass upon , as provided In the resolution ol Judge Stenberg of Saturday. Gun Club llolrts n Meeting.

On Juno 9 , 1694 , the bank began attachment proceedings to collect the face of a note for $1,010 , Klchard O'KecKo and Van Camp being made the defendants. Dank officials swore that Van Camp was about to convey away his property and place It beyond the reach of his creditors. An attachment was Issued and levied on about forty lots and houses of the value , so Van Camp says , of ? 10,000. I'art of the property was sold by him on the plan of future pay ments , and thus ho claims he lost vari ous bargains. He sues for $10,000 damages and for $2,100 on the attachment bond. The $8,000 damage suit of John O'Qrady , formerly a switchman on the Chicago Hur- llngton & Qulncy railroad , against the com pany has been dismissed. O'Orady at one time settled his claim for damages for $100. Ho claimed that the company then agreed to glvo him a life job In holding down a bench at Malvern as daemon at $40 a month. This was In 18S5 and soon attcr O'Grady had been run over by a car and had his leg smashed. In November , 1S03 , he was dis charged from his sinecure , and sued.
