When the Board of Supervisors adjourned for the day laat evening it had completed the canvass of the voto cast at the general election laat week up to and including the First precinct of the Second ward of thla city. This leaves ten city precincts yot to bo canvassed and It la expected that the board will complete Its work by noon to day. It probably will take all the after noon to foot the tabulations. Several discrepancies In the unofficial returns as published were found yesterday. In the First precinct of the Second ward tho vote for Barghausen, democratic can didate for recorder, had boen reported as 274, whereas In fact Jt was 247. This meant a loss of 27 for Barghauaen and by last evening his lead over Waddlngton. tho re publican candidate, waa figured at only 13. Paul Aylosworth, republican candidate for Justice of the peace, lost 100 in the First precinct of tho Second ward, but as ho was one of the defeated candidates, this will not sffect the result.

Arthur 1-CJgue, who was taken Into cub- 1 tody Monday at the instance of Superin tendent Hurnett of the Iowa State Indus trial School for Boys at Eldora. attempted to secure his release yesterday through habeas corpus proceedings Instituted on his behalf In the superior court. Mr. and Mrs. George League, parents of the youn:l man. attempted to show that he was ov r 31 yeara of age and therefore no longer amenable to the terms of the parole under which he had been enjoying his liberty. It wa stated that the young man was born September 23, 1887, and the parents produoed what they alleged to be a copy of the family record, copied from the family Bible, which had been destroyed by fire six or seven years ago. The par ents further claimed they had been married In 1886. The testimony as to young League's age, however, received a solar plexus blow when Assistant County Attorney Rosa produced a certified copy of the marriage record cf the parents which showed that they had been married in Omaha In October, 1889, r more than two years later than they Claimed their son was born. It was fur ther shown by the record that when young League -was committed to the Industrial school In Beptamber. 1904, his age was then given as 16 years. Judge Snyder refused the writ of habeas corpus and ordered the young man held for the arrival of an officer from tho In dustrial school. Real Batata Transfer.

EXPERT ENGINEERS COME HIGH When F.ffort Is Made to Sersrc One to Assist City Eaglaeer Council mrn Discover They Are Kxpenatve. City Engineer Etnyre and Councilman J. Chris Jensen, chairman of the water works committee are going to take a Junketing trip to Missouri to be shown. They will visit St. Louis, Kansas City and St. Joseph for the purpose of inspecting the water plants of those cities, particu larly In reference to machinery with a view of obtaining some ideas along this line aa to the needs of Council Bluffs. Believing that such a trip would help I solve the local problem. It wss suggested and decided upon at an "executive" ses sion of the city council Monday night held behind closed doors Ini the mayor's offioe in the city ball following the regular coun cil meeting. Mayor Thomas Maloney will go along but not, as ha explained yesterday, " a waterworks machinery expert, but be cause tho city council requested him. "I am not an expert on water works machinery," said Mayor Maloney, "but I guess I can be shown. I suppose the othev members of the council wanted me tc r;o along so as to see to It that St. Louis. Kansas City or St. Joe did not kidnap the city engineer or Mr. Jensen. The water works committee has dis covered that the service of expert hy draulio engineers come high and at tho "executive session" Monday night It was decided that the city would have to ret along as best it could without one. The plana for the proposed municipal water works will be revised by City Engineer Etnyre without the assistance of nn ex pert, although It was stated that possibly when Mr. Etnyre had completed the plans, an expert may be called In for a day or two to Uok them over. Expert Engineers Come High. "It Is our Intention to let Mr. Ktnyrc undertake the work alone, calling for aid only where he finds that expert advice is necessary to clear up some knotty problem. We certainly do not intend to employ an expert engineer to help )Ir. Etnyre with the plans at the prices they demand," de clared Councilman McMillan, member of the water works committee. Inquiry by the city engineer and Chair man Jensen of the water works committee elicited tha Information that expert hydrau lic englqeci demanded $100 and upward a day for their services or else a feo equal to 5 per cent of the cost of the construction of the proposed plunt. The white-winged dove of peace waa con spicuous at the executive session Monday night by its absence. At times the meeting, it is said, was anything but harmonious. Councilman Bellinger Insisted that the pro posed municipal water plant provide for eight and one-half miles of mains In the Sixth ward, 'which he represents, and also elghty-slx fire hydrants. "Nothing of this kind was ever promised,'' declared several of the councllmen. "Oh, It wasn't, wasn't it?" replied Coun cilman Bellinger, as from an Inner pocket he produoed one of the circulars Issued by the advocates of the water bond Issue at the recent special election, which were cir culated In the Sixth ward. "If you fellows don't fulfill the promises you made to the people In my ward at the election; no plan providing for anything else will receive my aupport. And let me tell you, nothing else will satisfy the people of the west end." Tho trip to Missouri, Mayor Maloney said yesterday, would likely be taken next Tues day. It la likely thut some of the municipal plants In thla state will also be Inspected by Mayor Maloney and the other experts. . HE H Y D.
