Architect Finally Promises to'Klab
rate Entrance Facing; I'pon the
Park a Mach aa Possible la
Complete Drawlsngs.
At an adjourned meeting of the Board of
Library trustees yesterday afternoon the
plans for the Carnegie library building were
flnblly approved and the architects In
structed to go ahead and complete 'the
working drawings and specifications for the
bidders.
The adoption of the plans was not
reached until after a somewhat stormy de
bate, the entrance on Willow avenue being
the main bone of contention. Whether the
entrance facing Baylies park will be any
where as ornate or Imposing as that on
Pearl street remains to be seen. As thel
matter now stands It rests entirely with
the Chicago architects and the people of
Council Bluffs have no assurance that there
will be any change from the plans as sub
mitted and approved by the board yester
day. When Judge Scott moved that the plana
as before the board be adopted, subject to
such changes as the architects might de-
sire to make In minor detail, Member Gal
vin, seconded by Member Bender, offered
en amendment to the effect that the archl- '
tects be Instructed to submit plans for a
more elaborte and ornate entrance on Wil
low avenue before the plans for the ex
terior of the building be finally adopted.
The amendment failed to carry, however.
Members Bender, Rohrer, Tyler and Gal-
vln voting for It and Members Scott, Clea-
ver, Stewart, Balrd and Mrs. Everett vot
ing Against It. Judge Scott's original mo
tion then prevailed.
Before the meeting adjourned, however,
Architect Grant C. Miller volunteered to do
the best he could to work out a more elab
orate entrance with supporting columns In
stead of flat pilasters for the Willow ave
nue front and submit sketches to the board
at the earliest opportunity. This con
cession on the part of the Chicago
architects waa brought about by the
declaration of President Rohrer that If
Mr. Miller was not prepared to plan a
more elaborate entrance for the Willow
avenue front he would himself employ some
architect to prepare such drawings.
To keep down the cost of the building
Architect Miller urged a flat roof, hut the
board decided that It wanted ft high roof,
but whether It will be of tile, slate, copper
or other material was not determined and
will not be, probably, until bids are re
ceived on the entire structure.

MAYOR MORGANFIL.ES ANSWER
Questions Right of Attorney Wads
worth to Prosecute Snlt to
Oast lllm.
Mayor Dell G. Morgan, through his at
torneys, filed yesterday In the district court
a motion to dismiss the suit brought by
Attorney 8. B. Wadsworth In the name of
the state of Iowa to remove him from
office on charges alleging maladministra
tion, etc. Four reasons are offered for the
dismissal of the suit aa follows:
That no demand has been made upon the
county attorney to bring the. action or to
prosecute the same, as required by law.
That the action Is attempted to be prose
cuted by a private cltisen in the name of
the state without having first obtained the
permission of any court or Judge to prose
cute the same in the name of the state.
That no bond for costs has been given to
protect the state from liability thereupon.
That on the statements of the petition
plaintiff has shown no right or authority
to bring or maintain this action.
County Attorney Klllpack,' when asked
yesterday, stated that in bringing this ac
tion Attorney Wadsworth had not con
sulted him and In his opinion the law did
not contemplate that ho should. The action
brought by Wadsworth to remove Mayor
Morgan from office, Mr. Klllpack said, was
not a quo warranto proceeding, but a suit
brought under section 1,262 of the code c.f
Iowa, which gives the right to any resi
dent of the city to make complaint in the
district court In the name of the state
and ask for the removal of any municipal
or other officer on charges alleging malad
ministration, etc. Had, however, the suit
been a quo warranto proceeding, the county
attorney said, it would have been neces
sary before Mr. Wadsworth could have
brought tho action himself to have made
a showing that he had made a demand
on the county attorney to bring It and
that the latter had refused.
It Is understood that Attorney Wads
worth will endeavor to have the suit
brought up'for hearing at this term of
court and that he will oppose any effort
on the part of the defense to have It con
tinued until the next term.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, Jan. 13.-(Speclal.) The
general assembly 'followed up its business
like start by today transacting some very
necessary preliminary business; and this
without an effort. The first bill of the
session was passed In an .hour In both
houses. Senator Oarst Introduced the bill
to appropriate $S,000 for the use of the
capltol commission In making the neces
sary repairs cn the capltol by reasen of
the Are. It was passed In both houses
without a division. Both houses then
passed a concurrent resolution that
after the inauguration on Thursday ad
journment will be taken until January 36
in order to give time for the completion
6f repairs In the house chamber. In the
senate the resolution was first to pro
vide for adjournment to January 20, but
amended to read January 26 by a vote of
15 to 22.
Both houses also paused promptly a con
current resolution providing for a Joint
committee of six to go to St. Louis and
see what has been done by the Iowa com
mission toward arranging for an Iowa
exhibit and to check up the books. and
make report on what has been expended
and what la needed. This was at the re
quest of the commission, through Secre
tary Conaway. The committee Is Sena
tors Lewis, Maytag and Lambert, and
Representatives Teacheut, ' Skinner and
Frudden. The committee 'will go next
week.
The senate ordered the. governor's mes
sage printed. The house decided on 6,000
extra copies of the Official Register.
Inana-uratlon Plans.
The legislature adopted the Inauguration
program. The Joint convention will meet
at 1:30 p. m. Thursday and accompany the
governor to the opera house. The Des

the Iowa National Guard. The governor,
lieutenant governor and state officials will
ride in carriages. Lieutenant Governor
Herriott will preside. The oath of office
will be administered by Chief Justice

President Funk of the Capltol commis
sion, charged with the duty of getting

use of the legislature, stated after the
passage of the appropriation bill and the
determination that a recess will be taken
until January 26 , that there will be no
trouble having the house ready at that
timo eo that both branches of the legis
lature may be In their respective halls on

up in one of the small domes of the state
house, but it can do-no damage and has
attracted no attention.,

In two cases the Iowa supreme court

cide and after the court had heard evi
dence to determine the degree of guilt
wanted to withdraw his plea, won out In
the higher court. It was decided that he
had the absolute right to withdraw his
plea at any time before Judgment was
pronounced.
Richard Williams, a Buxton negro, who
killed William Sharper and was sentenced
to hang, gets a new trial because of many
technical errors In the trial. Chester Tyler,
a negro who Is serving life sentence for
killing Dr. Failor at Newton, will remain
to -serve his time.

May Have Late Convent Ion.
Members of the republican state commit.
tee have been in the city the last week
in consultation with leading politicians
witn regard to the date for the hnltUn
of the republican state convention, and a
movement has been well started to have
a late convention. It ia generally believed
that some of the Inspiration for the move
ment comes from those who desire to wait
until some movement developa la oppo
sition to President Roosevelt and that at
leaat It la desired that Iowa ahall not com
mit itself to him before other states have
made his nomination reasonably certain.
It Is probable the convention will be lfeld
soon after adjournment of the legislature
In April. '
