STATE BUVS SOME.
( At the afternoon session of the board , the
members examined Auditor Tato' tabulation
nntl decided that Farson , Leach & Co. , were
the best bidders for the funding bonds , they
( having offered par and a premium ot $15,327
for 'the issue of $180.000. The award wan
inado to this firm and their representative
occeptcd the bnivls , payment to bo made
upon the signing and registering.
On the $100000 of exposition bonds , the
board found that E. II. Fudge was the best
bidder , ho having offoroJ par and a premium
of $7,070. The award was accordingly made ,
lnt the bidder refused to take the bunch ,
Baying that he desired hath funding and ex
position br.mls or none. This refusal left
Bpltzcr & Co , the next highest bidders , their
offer 'being par and a premium of $7,225.
Like Fudge , they refused to accept , contend
ing that If they could not have the entire
$280,000 , they would not take any. The First
( National bank of Chicago came In- next , this
concern 'being ' represented by Fudge , wlio had
> bld .1 premium of $6,860. To this bank the
award was made , but Fudge would not have
It that way. At this point the State of
Nebraska thiough its attorney general , C. J.
Brayth , came to the relief of the county com
missioners nnd raised bis former bid of
$1,050 , agreeing to pay the same price as had
been offered by the First National bank of
Chicago , par and < a premium of $6,850 , thus
running the total sale aggregate a premium
of $22.177.
After adjournment the commissioners said
that In tholr opinion It was the boot bond
sale ever made In the state. They figured
that with the premiums paid it reduced the
Interest on the funding bonds to 3i per cent
and on the exposition bonds to about 4 per
cent In addition to saving the expense of ex
change and cxprcBsago on the latter bonds.
Having been bought by the state , the com
missioners assert that the Interest and prin
cipal of the exposition bonda will be payable
hero Instead of at some fiscal agency In the
cast ,
GILT-EDGED INVESTMENTS.
Attorney General Smyth said that ho would
tavo taken the funding bonds If there had
been available funds In the state treasury
with which to have made the purchase. He
nald that the bonds were considered a gllt-
edgcd InvcHtnu'Mt , duo to the fact that the
security \vati of the best and alto that there
was no option by which they could become
duo and payable at the end of ten years. The
conditions of the bonds are imch that they
must run the full twenty years before pay
* ment can bo made.
Ir The eastern representatives said that they
had attended a largo number of bond sales
during tbo last three months and that this
Bale was the best that they knew of. They
eald that Nebraska , and Douglas county rs-
peclally , stands well In the financial circles

raignment before Judge Munger on a grand
Jury indictment , charging him with using

It is the second time that McAleese has
been allowed to plead on the same charge nnd
this fact is nttrlbutahlc to the quality of
mercy which forms a part of Judge Mungcr's
composition. McAleese was last summer ar
raigned under a statute that would have sent
him to the penitentiary for at least ono year.
Under the circumstances In the case the
court refused to accept his plea of guilty
and released him under bonds until another
Investigation by a grand jury. At the last
sttislon at Lincoln the grand jury again ex
amined Into the case and returned another
ndlctment agalniit McAleese , charging him
with the same offense but making the find
ing under a statute that makes It a mlsdc
meaner Instead of n felony ,
McAleeseus postmaster of Thornberg in
the yeure of the drouth anil ho found It hard
to make a living In order to help out he
hit upon the scheme of selHus the cactus

, lie WorthlcNN.
The trial of the case of the city of Otnaba
against the bondemon of Henry Hello , ex-
city treasurer , opened yesterday morning with
Jerome K. Coulter. Dolln'a deputy , on the
witness stand. Mr. Coulter arrived from
St. Louis an hour before the opening of
court and as soon ns the jurors were con
ducted Into the box commenced giving his
testimony , which was principally along the
line of Identifying the worthlcas checks aul
slips found In Uolln's cash drawer at the
time when the odlco passed Into the custody
of the bondsmen.
The unpaid check of John Groves , ex-city
clerk , now deceased , was the first paper
handed to the Witness , who said that It wan
deposited to cover an adx'ancc of salary , paid
by the witness under the direction of Uolln.
The mcnoy on the check was advance ! dur
ing Hollii'e first term as city treasurer. The
check has novcr been paid , having boon car
ried along In the cash drawer as cash and
an awet of the olllco. Witness knew of his
own knowledge that no entry relating to the
check had ever been madeIn the booka of
the office , the check always having been con
sidered as cash. The same was true of the
other checks , notes and papers. Uolln had
paid over the money or had ordered the wit
ness to do so. Acting under directions ot
Dollm , witness had alwaji ? paid over money
on notes , checkrf and orders and had alwajs
carried them along as cash.
The money used In payment of the notes ,
checks and orders , witness stated , was taken
from the cash drawer In which the city caeh
was kept and so far as ho knew payments
were made out of city funds.
The notes of Sol and Flora Prince were
received by the wltneesa under tbo direction
and Prince's salary OB city councilman was
endorsed In payment , or at least so long ns
ho cont'nucd no a member of the city coun
cil. After th-it lime theru were no endorse
ments on the notes.
A personal check drawn by Dolln for ? ! , -
177.28 wltnes. ? understood was for money col
lected on taxes unil was carried In the
draw or 03 BO much cash.
On crojfi-examltiatlon the witness testified
that the Wittlg check and the Prince note"
were In payment of liquor licenses and that
the money advanced was taken from the
drawer In which both city and Board of Ed
ucation funds were kept.
STATB RCSTS ITS CASE.
Shortly after 11 o'clock the examination
of Coulter was concluded , whereupon City
Attorney Connell announced that the state
rested. The court took a recess of five
minutes and the defense commenced Us
side of the case by calling Deputy City
Clerk Holbrook to the witness stand. The
witness produced the council record show
ing the approval of Bolln's official bond as
treasurer for the second term. To the
offer of evidence the attorneys for the city
objected. Mr. Mahoney for the. bondsmen
asked why the objection was made and was
Informed that the evidence waa Immaterial ,
Irrelevant and had no bearing upon the
Issues Involved.
Mr. Mahoney contended that the statutes
provided 'that when a city ofilccr was elec
ted , before his iboml was approved , the coun
cil should examine the accounts of his
predecessor and pssa upon the correctness
of the books , papers and records of the
ofllce. Mr. Mahoney stated that he offered
the record as prlma facie evidence that all
of the money that came Into Holln'h hands
as city treasurer during his fimt term had
been properly accounted for , else his bond
covering the second term would not have
been approved.
Judge Slubaugh said that the proposition
advanced by the attorney for the defenas
raised an Important legal question , and
that before pegging upon it ho wanted to
see the authorities. At tlila point court ad
journed until 2 o'clock , at which lime the
attorneys presented their authorities , con
sumlng a greater portion of the afternoon.
OLSON'S CERTIFICATES DARRDD.
After listening to the arguments , Judge
Slabaugh sustained the objection , of the
plaintiff anJ the case went on , Mr. Mahoney
presenting the certificate of Theodore Olson ,
ex-city comptroller , certifying that he had
examined the records of the city treasurer's
office at the conclusion of Bolln's first term
and bad found them correct. To tht , offer
Mr. Council objected , on. the ground of Im
materiality and that the certificate was not
the best evidence , Ol < ion being present In
court and also that the facts were fully
shown by the records of the city treasurer's
office.
The court held that the offer of the cer
tificate raised substantially the same Issue
as was raided when the witness was askwl
questions concerning the bond of JJolln for
his first torm. The objection was sustained
and the wltneus was excused.
J. N. Glllan , secretary of the board of
education was called and testified that ho had
the care and custody of board warrants paid
by the city treasurer. The witness presented
the warrantB paid and canceled during the
years 1892 and 1893 and they were left In
the custody of the court.

The case of The Dee Publishing comrany
against the Associated Press on Judge Key-
sor's docket has been dismissed without
prejudice. Attorney Efctabrook , representing
the defendant , came on from Chicago , ex
porting that the case would go to trial on
the petition of Intervention , filed by the
World Publishing company. It was shown
that the World Publishing company had
signed a contract with the Associated Press
corr-oany , by which the former upon the pay
ment of $270 per week was to receive the

years , It was also shown that the Associated
