TI03 oaiAHA DAUiY BEE : ' WEDNESDAY , JUKE 20 , 1805. for the office next fall. Several attempts wore made to persuade Mr. Hoed to reconsider his loiter ot declination , but without result. DETKHM1NKD IIOLLN SHOULD OO The debate at tha morning session of the council was spirited at 'times and a deter mined effort was made by the friends of Mr , Bolln to ftave off the Inevitable by postponing action , pending a further Investigation. They proved to bo In the minority , however , and when the meeting adjourned It was apparent that nothing would suffice to retain the treas urer In his office. The first quarter of an hour was occupied In a dl cusslon as to whether the session should bo secret Several members wanted the doors locked and tne representatives of the press excluded , but others Insisted that the matter uniier consideration was one In which the public had an Interest and that a far a they were concerned they had noth ing to say which they were anxious to con ceal Tlio doors were finally unlocked nnd Mayor UemU called the council to order lie dialed that It had now been eight days since It was proclaimed that there was a shortage In the office of the city treasurer During that time the bondmen of Mr Uolln had de clared that It was not their Intention to make any recommendation , and the city had taken no official nollce whatever of the condition of affairs It was high tlmo that some thing wire done to protect the Interests of the city nnd It was In pursuit of this purpose that he had called the council together T\r Baundcrs opined that the comptroller was the legal personage on whom devolved the duty of notifying the council In such n casa and It had as yet received no notifi cation from him City Attorney Connell discussed the situa tion at some length. He said that nothing was to be g-ilned by evading the Issue and the council might Just as well face the situa tion just as It existed It must bo met sooner or later and It devolved on the council to take such steps us would enable the city to protect Its Interests No one could feel moro lilndly toward Mr Uolln than himself , but at the same tlmo the condition of affairs In the city treasurer's office wns a matter of public notoriety Action had been delayed while the bondsmen were making their In vestigation , but they had declared that It was their purpose to do nothing The effect of this determination wns thnt hey left the city to hold the sack and to shoulder all of the roiponslblllty QUESTION OP OITICIAL DUTY. Continuing , Mr. Connell declared that If the treasiir'-r were not doing his duty the mayor nnd council had a duty to perform and it should be fearlessly faced and dis posed of. It would be extremely embar rassing for the council to declare the office of city treasurer vacant unless the vacancy could bo filled at once If Mr Holln were to be removed the question of who should be appointed In his place should bo given Im mediate consideration. He understood that It was for this purpose that the mayor wished to obtain the sentiment of the council If It Intended to declare the office vacant the mayor would then have tlmo to decide on the appointment of u successor and the new treasurer could then be confirmed at the regular council meeting tonight and cuter on the duties ot hlr office the next morning. It was a source of embarrassment , in his opinion , that the question of politics en tered Into the matter to a considerable de grce. The candidate who should obtain the appointment for the remaining six months of tha year would have a decided ad vantage In his canvass for the subsequent term Ho urged that It was a time when the mayor and council should lay aside nil personal preferences and interests and do what was host for the welfare of the city In case a new appointment was to be madf. Immediate act on should bo taken , so that the now appointee could have his bonds ready for approval and bo ready to step Into the vacant olllco at once In reply to a direct question Mr Connell stated that In his opinion the present bonds men of Mr. Bolln would not be liable for nny future Irregularity or shortage in his conduct of the olllce They could' go Into court with the plea that the council had been dcrel ct In Its duty. Members had re fused to take action when the condition of nffnlrs In the office was a matter of public notoriety -The council wns equally re Eponslblo for the sins.of omissions as well as commission. It the bondsmen had wlshei to continue their obligation and had unani mously requested the council to continue Mr. Uolln In office they might ba held re sponsible , but they had done nothing of the tort. WORD OF A BONDSMAN Mr. Konnard stated that one of the bonds men had assured him In a personal Inter view that ho would not consider himself re sponslble for any further shortage Mr. Princs contended tint the council could take no action except at the request ot the bondsmen. He had understood thai they had decided to- make the shortage goo : on condition that the city would allow Mr Bolln to servo out his term and apply Ms salary to the compensation of his bondsmen Mr. Kennard said that It was his Idea that Immediate action should be taken In order that the mayor might send In th ? name ot Mr. Uolln's successor to the councl at the evening meeting. In accordance with this view ho had prepared a resolution whlcli he wished to have read and voted on. A long debate preceded the reading of the resolution. Mr Holmes said chat he thought llisra should be more definite Information submitted In regard to the shortage before the office was declared vacant. The books should bs checked up properly and an officla report presented to the council. Mr. Mercer suggested that the comptroller be sent for , ns he was the official on whom the duty of notifying the council devolve and this was seconded by Prince nnd Black who declared that the council had no officla knowledge that a shortage existed. SAUNDE11S OPPOSED TO ACTION. At this point Saunders defended Mr. Holli nnd protested against any action on the par of the council. Ho sild that there was more than one question to bo considered. The city council was presumed to look after the Interests terosts of the taxpayers , but members shoul net do Injury to Mr. Uolln or to his bonds men. It might be true that there was a flight shortage In the cash account In th treasurer's olllce , but ho had been Infornm that thu books had boon examined and tha they had balanced to a penny. . Ho based h ! pica for Mr. Uolln on lih previous service Ho had handled millions of dollars for th city and county nnd this was the first In stance of the sort which had been brougli to the notice of the public. The newspaper nnd curtain Individuals had criticised Mr Bolln severely for a practice which had al wayj been general In this and other cities It might bo contrary to Invv , but It was char acterlzcd by no evil Intent. The boudsmo ; of Mr. Bolln , by neatly a unanimous vote had reqnested him to remain In office So far as his iwn vote was concerned , Mr Saunders said that he would not bo a party to any action that tended to blacken a man' character unnecessarily So long as ther w 9 nothing to show that there was n shortage ago ai fjr as the council was concerned , o that a fraud lied been attempted , there wane no reason to b ° hasty He reterrcd to th < sympathy which Mr Ilollrt received from hi friends and neighbors as a good reason why his .shortcomings should be condoned. 11 did not want the city to lose a penny , but hi undeisfood that It was the Intention of th bondsmen to make up all deficiencies , so thcr was no reason why Immediate action shoiili bo taken. IP conclusion he advanced th theory that Mi Ilolln'w Irregularities hai been committed while he was temporarily In sane and declared that ha had never beard o his dissipations until since the fact of hi delinquency had been inaila public. Mr. Kment wanted to Know whether Mr Uolln' * bondsmen were higher In nuthorlt then the city government , or the people o Om.ilia ? What right had the council to ac on their recommendations In H matter 1 vrhleh they had n purely personal nnd finan clul Interest ? Mr Uolln had cleirly vlolatti the law. Illy bondsmen were evidently try ing to conccil Hie true state of affairs and th people were domindltiK that the city counc should take s me action to protect the'r ' In teiosts DECLAIUVO THE OfTICE VACVNT At tlili * point thu resolution ot Councllme Kennard and Uurkloy was read. It was a follows : Whereas , I'or thn last twenty yenis movement has been carried fin ward far th pui ifirntlon of municipal government I Ameilcn. unit the woiK U continuing wit 1m ron oil emphasis In many of the Inrc metropolitan centirs ; miitilcliKil trensurle. hiuo been plundered of millions of dollar * by dishonest city olllrlnls ; n hlkh rnrnlvnl of i-jriuptlon tinx been In full blnst nnd to such nn extent us finds no parallel In the hlntory if the flvlllzed woilil. the people nriH > cvmlng ntt > u ed to thn noopswly of adopting licrolo mcaHurrft nnd pro ft leal syxtcma , suih it * will render Irrcgiilitrlt es and abuses of trust In olllco lmpo Ibl < .

Saunders contendedthat the resolution 1m- > llcd moro than really existed. The coun cil had no right to remove any official from dice without giving him an opportunity to clear himself. The , resolution proposed to remove the cltv treasurer without a trial and without an Investigation He urged hat the council should at least g > ve Mr. lolln an opportunity to resign. Prince supported the previous speaker. He declared that Mr. Bolln had done nothing moro criminal than was done by every city and county treasurer In the state , and even the state treisurer himself. Kennard made a strong speech In support of his position He declared that so far as "rlendshlp for Mr Bolln was concerned or sympathy for him In h s misfortune his sentiments were the same as those of other nembers of the council But he did not iropose to stutlfy himself He Intended to face the facts as they existed and to do his luty as a public servant and fight the matter out on that line. Ho contended that the adoption of the resolution was the only course thnt the council could pursuo. If its members laid aside the r personal feelings and did their duty ns public officials. The recollection of favors received from Mr Bolln should not deter them from their plain duty. JacoUson declared that he would not vote for tbe resolution until the council had re ceived an official report of the real situation Edwards took ihe same ground and branched oft to say that some Improved system should so adopted , through which the council would liave a more effective check on the municipal treasury. Kment moved the previous ques tion on the motion to call for a report from the comptroller and this was carried , after Prince had remarked that the suggestion as to Improving the system would come with Ijetter grace from one wljo had not profited l > y the present laxness. COMPTROLLER'S STATEMENT. Comptroller Olson was called before the council and stated that the result of his In vestigation had been to show that the books were properly balanced. Hut he had found a shortage In the cash account. According to his figures there should have been $27- C33 23 In the cash drawer on June IS. The actual amount on hand was $1,854.23. The cish Items , consisting of checks , memoran da slips , etc , which ho found in the drawer amounted to $30,757 G2 , making a total In cah Items of $32,611.75. Of th ; amount represented by these slips $ JC07 15 had been paid .In , leaving a deficit of $26,080 37 as In- .llcate'd by the aggregate of the slips The amount Indicated by the slips ? , however , was nearly $5,000 In excess of the amount which should be In the treasury according to the books , and ho give the official estimate of Mr Uolln's shortage as $21,151.87. Of this amount he gave a personal opinion that $9,000 was good Some members expressed dissatisfaction with the report. Mercer said that the comp ( roller had stated that It all the slip ? were paid there vvoujd be a surplus In the treasury ot several thousand dollars. Ho considered this Impossible , and If these were the figures of the comptroller he was not disposed to take much stock In the remainder of the re- part. City Attorney Connell suggested that It would bo a remarkab'o proceeding for the treasurer to advance money to hi ? friends nni make out the memorandum for a less amounl than ho had advanced. Mr. Olson cud ! not explain those Inconsistencies , simp y ro levlng himself by baying that he had given the figures as ho found them. Mr. Kennard called for a vote on his resclu- tlon , but Saunders and Edwards urged that the resolution was unnecessary. Mr. Bolln h33 Intimated to them that he was willing to resign If the council wished him to do so and they asked that he should bo given that opportunity. Kennard finally stated that he had been assured on reliable authority tha Mr. Bolln would present his resignation to the council that evening and with that under standing he was willing to withdraw his reso lution. That was finally agreed to. A call was tbei Issued for a special meeting of the council at 2 o'clock and Mr. Edwards was made a committee of cne to see Mr. Bolln In the meantime and obtain a positive assurance as to his Intentions. WANT THE LIST. Another resolution was Introduced whlcl bore the signatures of Mercer , Kment nn ; Kennard It provided that since erroneous statements had been made by a public prln concerning Irregularities and overdrafts of sa'- ary on the part of city officials the comptrol Icr should be Instructed to furnish a com plete list of the officials who had profited In this way. Including these who had paid up their obligations. This resolution raised a general scramble , In wh'ch It was Immediate y apparent that sev eral of the councllmen Utd not relish such a procedure Saunders moved as a substitute that the three councllmen who had demande the publication of the names should bo relieved from the Imposition of which they complained and characterized the resolution as the purest piece of political buncombe that ho had yet seen. Edwards put In a plea for the beneficiaries of the city treasurer by saying that they hai a perfect rlfiht to borrow money from Mr Dolln If they pleased and ho was willing to give It to th ° m No ontTwould suppose that they had nny Idea that -these favors came out of the municipal treasury , but they hai Indulged In the undisturbed belief that Mr Uolln was advancing the money out of his own pock"t This statement elicited a burst of derision nnd Kennard made a few vigorous remarks He said that It was not right for the mem bers ot tht council who had profited by Mr Uolln's good nature to endeavor to throw the eiitlre odium of the transaction on him Moreover , It had been stated by the publlca ( Ion In question that ho had hypothecates his salary This was emphatically false He did not know aa there was any particular oumm attached to ! t , but ho did not wan the Impression to go out that his business was In such a piedlcament that ho had tc boirow money out of the city treasury For these reasons he demanded that he and his colleaguci should be set right by the publlca tlon of the entire list without favor. Waxing more earnest In his remarks Ken nard produced n typewritten document whlcl he sad was a correct copy of the full list He gave judicial notice that If his resoln tlon wan not passed he would make It publl and tiun ) clear hlnuelf of the charge tha had been made against him. In this lonnec nccllon he read from a copy of the record an entry which shotted that the Omaha World Herald wan ona of the beneficiaries of Mr Uolln. On November 3 , 1S9J. that rstab lUhnunt had drawn $749 from the city treasury ury for which It had no warrant but v.hid was advanced by the city treasurer. The resolution did not come to a votn , am. Mr. Kennard btated that If It wai not p4sse tonight he would carry out bis declaratlo and publUh the list Onlit Kicltrlutnt In Wyoming. CHUVENNE.

That was a great game of ball out at the air Rroundo park yesterday afternoon , If the Omahas did lose. It was Fatty Dugdale's Pcorla Ulackblrds gainst the Hutchlnson family , and both earns put up the kind of ball the fans glory n , although they were excessively disap pointed yesterday because the Gate City pets got most artistically wholloped. Still It oughtn't to be any disgrace to bo licked by he leaders In the great pennant chase , espe- lally when they did the licking In such a clcntlflc manner. As Shaffer remarked after the last man lad been annihilated : "The Ulackblrds are iall players , every ono of them , and the fel- ow who says they ore simply lucky Is ar- Iculatlng through his hat. " Major DugJale put In Hans Hanson to offset Colonel Eagan , and Hans succeeded most alarmingly. He has a lerky , but sententious delivery , that Is full of all starts of conundrums , ami most per- ilexlHR when It seemed the most simple. All thu mighty sluggers of Hutch's nggre- Ratlon could do was to find him three times , iwice for singles , nnd mice for n three- jaRger , the latter being n scratch. Colonel Jack Eagan , too , was feeling nctty good , nnd the chlnuppltiR Dlack- ! > lrds didn't do a thing to him until the seventh Inning , nnd then why , they didn't do a thing to him. Five straight bastes nfter two hands were out tells the story all too Riaphlcally A hulf dozen raw was the sire of It , and from this out thu Omnhas were at their mercy Hut It will not take a minute to tell how the tuns were made Tacks Ulrlch , the first mnn up , bit one lown to rishor with a little bunch of whls- ccrs on Its chin Fish grabbed It up by the nape of the neck , choked It until It was blue In the face , then thiew It over the teachers' llaller went after It , got It. and In try IIIR to head the Grasshopper off ; it third threw It over the carilagc pad lock , and Tacks ran In with a tally , a lit tle , soft , pearly tally , and the only one we got In the whole game In the third the Ulackblrds tied the score Nulton , from the Mlllcreek bottoms , made 1 lilt , and went to second on Hanson's out , nnd homo on Skeleton Flynn's single. Then thcio was no more crossing the plate until that fatal wedding Inning the seventh DiiRdnle and the Mlllcroek states man both went out to first , then Hans Hun- hon made a hit , Flynn got his base on balls , Fisher mndo a hit nnd BO did Haller , and so did Slesler and so did Dennett and so did Trancls , nnd there you nre. Six runs wnt the result. Knough , wasn't It ?
