PAYS FOR THE STREET SITE
Board of Education Turns Over Purchaso
Money to Owner's Agent.
ANOTHER INJUNCTION SUIT PROMISED
I'rople Who Object lo the Proponed
Location of Hie High .School
Talk About dilute Into
Court Auiilo,
The purchaso of the Street property as
'the site lor the new High school building
was consummated yesterday morning by the
Hoard of Kducatlon. I). V. Otis, as agent
for A. W. Street, handed over to S -crotury
Hoss of the school board the deed to the
property and also a deed from Street to
the city of Council Muffs to tho portion
of Third street bounding tho tract on the
oast side, which had never been deillcnlc.il,
opened or graded. In return Sccrctaty
ltoss handid Mr. Otis a draft 011 School
Treasurer Hnvcrstoek for $5,500, tho pur
chase price of 1 ho property.
This action on Ihe part of the Hoard of
Kducatlon was unexpected, as It was gen
dally understood that no further Uu
looking to the completion of the purchase
of the Street tract would bo taken until
the return of President Henry, who Is In
the east. The draft drawn by Secretary
JtofK on the treasurer lacks the signature
of President Henry, but It Is said thai
Treasurer Haverstock arranged lo rash
all drafts In President Henry's absence
on the understanding that he will sign
them on his return.
While no instructions were given at tho
meeting of the school board Monday night
to Sceretnry ltoss. ho acted under orders
given at a former meeting, at which he was
directed to accept the deed from Agent
Otis as soon as Mr. Street deeded the
sttcet to the city. The street having been
deeded Secretary Unas saw no rrubon for
further delaying the matter, so acting on
Huso orders paid oer to Mr. Otis tho pur
chase. price.
Objectors Threaten 11 Suit,
Those citizens who were opposed to th
selection of the Street tract hoped that
the board would ultimately rescind lis
action before paying for the property and
locate the school nearer the center of tho
city. A prominent business man, who
from the start has been opposed to Ihe
Street tract and who was In favor of the
Oakland avenue location until that slto
was barred out by tho state superintend
ent, expressed considerable surprise when
he learned yesterday morning Hint tho
board had completed tho purchase of the
Street property. Ho said:
"I did not for n moment ever expect
that the board would really buy that
property. There Is only ono thing now
lett us to do nnd that is to tako the matter
ngaln Into tho courts. We had hoped to
aold this, but wo do not Intend to sit
Idly by and allow tho school, If wo can
possibly prevent It. to be built in an oul-of-the-wny
corner like the Slreet property.
We shall confer over the matter tomorrow
and I think It Is safe to u.iy that wo shall
apply to the court for an Injunction to
restrain the board from placing the new
High school there. Our application will
be based 011 the grounds that the site Is
nut centrally located and does not In tiny
respect comply with the proposition that
the people of this district voted on two
years ago."
It Is now for the courts to decide
whether the school board has not tuc
High school sites on Its liamU. The own
ers of the Oakland avenue property have
a suit pending In the district court against
the school district to euforco tho pay
ment of the purchase price of that site,
which was $8,000. Tho board contracted
with R. A. Wlckhnm to grade tlio Oakland
avenue tract ami his bill for that work,
amounting to something over $700, has
never been settled. It has been presented,
but the policy of the board, so far, has
been to pigeon-hole It. Unless paid the
board will have more litigation on its
hands, as Contractor Wlckham has stated
that he Intends to enforce tho payment
of his bill.

, have not come from many of the districts,

IOWA CITY, la., Sept. IS. (Special Tel
egram.) After several months of Inquiry
on the part of Expert Acrounlnnt Klerulff
It has been discovered that tho county
treasurer's office Is short $12,210.01. This
covers a period since 1S02. In his report
tho amount of shortage under the term of
A. R. Cherry amounted to $9,400.88. while
the shortage during Maher's term In 1893
amounted to $1,1:11.33.
The report completed by Klerulff today
covers the collection of tnxes for tho years
1S92, 1893 nnd 1894, and during that time he
has discovered a shortage of $1.S90.S0. This
last report completes the Investigations of
the accounts from the beginning of Maher's
term lu 1892 until tho present time. It
covers a period of eight years. During the
years of Maher's incumbency the total
amount of shortnge is $3,025.13, whllo
Cherry's total shortage wns $9,100.88. Tho
total amount, missing for the eight years
Is $12,120.01.
The report shows that tho errors In
Maher's accounts were nuido Inrgely In tho
footings, although small nmounts In somo
places had not been abstracted nfter col
lection. All but the newly discovered $1.
890 of the shortage has been covered by
cash by both Cherry and Maher. Tho
nbove amount wns found In tho early part
of Maher's term. The board of supervisors

Is not yet known what action will be taken
In regard to tho now shortnge.
