The oppo lnB counsel In the suit against
the Hartley bondsmen look turns yesterday
In waiting for each other's next move In the
game. It Is the defending bondsmen's move
thla morning , nnd It depends very largely on
this whether nr not the case goes on < ll once ,
or whether It will bo postponed.
The delaj Is the result of the futile effort
of Attorney Oencr.il Smyth to Introduce ns
evidence In rebuttal the wilttcn agreements
of the six original bondsmen that they
evolved all legal objection to the aecutliig of
Additional signature * to the bond when Gov
ernor Holcomb declared that ho was not sat
isfied with It , and handed It back to Hartley
< o got more sureties These agreements were
attached to the bond when It was approved
by Governor Holcomb on January D , 1895.
three additional mimes having been secured
Attorney General Smyth vlld not think that
It was nciessary to Int educe these waivers
In his case In chief. Hut they nro absolutely
essential now In view of the defense of the
tiondsmin tKit they signed the bond of the
treasurer , Hartley , who could bo legal ! } In
ducted Into otllco only by having his boml
approved of January 3 , 18S5 , the first day of
the teim , nnd not of the 'ijrtley ' who was
treasurer onlj by sufferance beonise his band
was tgi'roved ' four cM > s later Only by the
waivers can Attorney Gencial Snijtli break
down this defense for they are dated nftci
January 3 , 1B33 , and , therefore , prove that
the bcndsnien knew Hartley wan not Inducted
into odlco on January 3 , 189. . , and that they
nalvcd that fact
COURT HOLDS WITH THE DEFENSE
When the altornej general tried to put the
waivers In evidence- Tuesday aftemoon the
defendants objected and the court took the
matter under advisement YoitorJaj mo ulng
ho sustained the objection , and said that he
would allow thcutato to Introduce the vvilvc v
only as n ( art of its case In Met. lie spDl.c
as follows
"I believe tint It would lot be proper to
admit these documents as rebuttal testimony
1 think , however that everything suiround-
Ing the making of this bond should be
brought before this court and jury I regret
exceedingly that this condition exists , al
though I do not wish to bo unilerstoo 1 as
casting the sllghtcat ciltklsm on tin at
torney genctal Hut I consider tiat It would
bo error for mo to admit this testimony
under the pleadings In the catic Aa the case
In of such gieat Importance to the people of
the stMte of Nebraska , however , I will allow
the attorney general to amend his petition
as to Include thu waivers as a part of the
bond on which he Is suing"
With this amendment the defendants con
tend that the Usiio In the case will be
changed material ] } The > saj that the at
torney general will be suing on J common
law bond Instead of a statutory bond- > two
entirely different contracts Thcrefore , the >
will vvnnt time to prepare an answer and also
tlmo to prepare a defense
( Attorney Genci il Smjth asked that he be
given until 2 o'clock to amend his petition
and the request was granted
A-MCNDHD PETITION TILED.
It was almost 3 o'clock before Attorncv
General Snith hod drawn up the amended
petition and brought It Into comt It In
cludes the allegations made before In the
original petition and the reply It bets up
that the bond wes filed and received on Jan
uary 3 , 1S'J5 , ll-At .on the following day the
governor gave It back to Hartley to get more
sureties ; that Hartley brought U back on
January n , 1SD1 ; with three more sureties , and
with the waivers of the oilglnal bondsmen ,
that the bond was then appiovcd
The defending counsel Insisted at once
that they must have- time to examine the new
instrument and prepare an answer. Judge
Powell gave them until this morning to do
this.

The bondfcinen irn } ask that they be given
additional time to orepare a defense The/
may Insist that entl cly new l-sues have been
put forward by the state , and may demand
that the case ho commence ; 1 anew with an
entirely now Jury. Ycstcrdnj they did not
know just what the } would ask , or whether
they would be ready to go ahead with the
casofioin the point at which It Is at now. It
is certain that consilerablo time , mabo two
weeks , will bo us d mi In Introducing the
evidence that will bo deemed nectsfar } Iti

Attorney Ocneial Snith said th-it he s-nv
no reason for any long delay Ho milntalned
that the matter of tuo waive s made but lit
tle difference and he EOW no reason why a
short time would not be sufllclent to get In
all the needed testimony.

OPPOSE HIGH SCHOOL BONDS

No bond proposition , either for $300,000 for
the c'cctlon of a new high school building , or
f 100,000 for the construction of one wing of a
new building as an addition to the present
structure , will bo submitted to the votn of the
people at the coming election. This Is gretty
.definitely settled now. At a special meeting
I
of the Itoiril of Education last night , called
i for the nurpocc of Bottling the matter , both
propositions were downed
J
I I Thwc were twelve members present , the
j , absentees being President I.unt , and Mcm-
' bcrs Johnson and G atton. Eight of those
ip.csent | voted in favor of offering one or the
other ot the propositions , but this was not
Eiidl-lcnt According to the opinion of the at-
tonicy a two-thirds majority of the whole
board , or ten votes , was required to iiuthorlrc
the Issuance of a proclamation This action
has settled the matter , as a p'oclnitiatlon
announcing that a bond proposition Is to be
offered must be published ten das before
election This fact debars the board from
'doing anthing nt next .Monday's regular
meeting , aa that occuis less than ten days
befne election day.
The matter came up In the shape of a re-
part rvom the Judiciary committee which
iccomtiii'tidcd that a bond proposition asking
fo $300,000 for the construction of an cntho
now building be presented The committee
was Instructed at the last meeting of the
bsaul to bring In such a report. The report
brought but two members to their feet , as
the matter had been thoroughly discussed at
last Monday night's meeting.
TOO MANY HONDS NOW.
Anderson advocated a bond nroposltlon tint
asked for only $100.000 , which was to be used
In the construction of one wing of ultimately
a now building. In which the overflow f om
the present buildlm ; could bo accommodated
Ho believed that the city couhl get along all
right for the nc < ct live or ten > eirs with such

lean proposition would never carry , since
thcio Is T delimit now In the school fund ,
since transmls'isfalppl bond loroposltion ,
and another to pa } the county pocr farm

feel themselves alrcad } too much burdened

con 'dercd hlnce the board was not limited
i He was fuvarable especially In the Interest
of the health of the girl students He slid
that e\er } phslcian had one 01 more cases
cf Impairment of health which was directly
attilbiited to the fact tliat the girls were
i fo'cej to climb up and down the stairs In
tne building He admlttel that the cit }
might be able to get along without a new

i pr.co ot life and health He was of the opln-
) ion that thu proposition would carry If the
members took the stump until election , as the
reluming prosierU > and the beginning of
new enterprise. ! lad nrepared the people to
go ahead still further
All the other members seemed to have
made up their minds on the matte" , for none
of them said an } thing The report was put
to a vote , which resulted CG follows'

The report was dcchred not ndoptert , as
Beard Attorney Covell gave the opinion that
a tuo-thlQla majority of the entire board
was ncceiEary In order to submit a bond
proposition. Under this opinion ten \otca
would be required to submit the proposition.
Dr. Jloore , wh presented the report , ex
plained his negative vote by Ealng that
although he was 'In favor of a new building
he did not think a $300,000 proposition would
curry since there aretilread } two to come up
Ho wanted to sec a proposition asking for
$100,000 presented to the people.
AMENDMENTS OUT Or OHDDR
It developed that since the report haJ
been downeJ no amendment could be offered
Later in the evening , however , Member
Andcreon Introduced a resolution that the
finance committee's report le amended so
