Douthitt of Philadelphia, repre senting the United States Gas Jm- Erovement company, is on his way ere from the east. In view of Mr. Zimman's explana tion, the council deferred action on his ordinance, proposing to submit to the voters an ordinance calling for another appraisal of the gas plant. The pending ordinance to reject -the appraisal was not called up Monday. The ordinance to reject the ap praisal must be passed not later than next Monday, if passed at all. Mayor Smith is still confident that it will net be passed and he in sists again that it is a "political ordinance." The mayor was so confident that the city council would accept the appraisal price that he went to Chi cago last week and conferred with prospective bond buyers, learning that when the city reaches the point of offering the gas plant bonds for sale there will be no difficulty in ob taining bidders. n Scouts Distribute "Complaint Girds" In Omaha War On H.

BUTLER, SOS Citr Hill j PRESIDING JUDGE REBUKES OFFICER FOR HIS 'MEDDLING' Justice Who Sentenced Ionag hue Indignant at His Sudden Release From Prison. Expressing "utter indignation" and "a feeling of surprise and out rage," Presiding Judge A. C. Troup sent a letter yesterday to Adult Pro bation Officer M. Andreasen, repri manding him in severest terms for his "meddling" in the case of James C. ("Red") Donaghue, who was par doned by Governor McKelvie on recommendation of Andreaserrf March 4. Chief Pcputy County Attorney Coffey, who prosecuted Donaghue, District Judge Troup who presided, and Eugene O'Sullivan who defend ed Donaghue, knew nothing of the pardonuntil Mr. Coffey learned of it by accident last Friday, a week after it had been granted. Andreasen sees these men nearly every day and why he never men tioned it to them Is a puzzle. Donaghue was convicted of as sault and battery in Judge Troup's court February 11, after a trial last ing three days. The complaining witness against him was pretty Marie Honach, who testified that Donaghue attacked her at Seven tieth and Center streets about mid night, August 17.
