TINCOLN, Neb., May 16.—(Special to The Bee.)—The Board of Educational Lands and Funds has encountered some opposition in Its efforts to enforce the recent decision of the supreme court In regard to the invest- ment of the permanent schcol fund in state warrants. The board set aside a large amount of money for the purpose and di- rectod Treasurer Bartley to take up unreg- fstered warrants as fast as they were pre- sented for registration. On Monday Stull Bros,, the well known warrant brokers of this city, presented to Treasurer Bartley soventeen warrants, ranging in amounts trom $6 up to $198.12. They requested the treasurer to register the warrants and he refused, offering to purchase them for the permanent school fund, They refused to soll thelr warrants to the school fund. This forenocon Stull Bros. applied to the supreme court for a peremptory writ of mandamus commanding the state treasurer to register the warrants. Stull Bros. have loug been the leading warrant brokers of Lincoln. They have made a fortune by handling warrants, and a member of the firm stated to The Bee representative this morning that he be- Ieved he had a good case against the state treasurer. Treasurer Bartley states that everybody will be served in the samo way. Holders of current warrants will be given their op- tlon of selling thelr warrants to the per- manent school fund or losing their interest The orders of the Board of Educational Lands and Funds, as formulated by Gover- nor Crounse, will be obeyed strictly to the letter. WANTE A REHEARING. C. 0. Wheedon, one of the attorneys of ex- Treasurer Hill and his bondsm this fore- noon filled a motion for a rehearing in the case In which the supreme court two weeks ago held that it had original jurisdiction to frs the case in which' the ‘state of Ne- Truska secks to recover from the ex-treas- wier the $236,000 lost In the Capital National bank fallure. In his brief Mr. Wheedon takes issue with the receat decision of the court. He claims that under that declsion the court assumes the power to make laws governing particular cases. He lays espe- clal stress upon the argument that if the con- stitution provides that the supreme court may have original jurisdiction in cases in which the state is a party, it is the duty of the legislature to provide the rules govern- ing the presentation of the case to the court. It the legislature failed to pass such rules the supreme court has no right under the constitution to supply the rules. GOSSIP AT THE STATE HOUSE. Attorney General Hastings goes to Omaha tomorrow to take the last testimony in re- buttal in the maximum rate case. The state has practically been ready for the trial of the case for three months. The supreme court today confirmed the findings of Judge Barnes, referee in the case of the state against the Plainview State bank. This action shuts out the claims of a number of eastern creditors and will enable the recelver to pay 100 cents on the dollar to every depositor and to every cred- itor of the bank except the stockholders. As soon as these claims can be pald off the receiver will be discharged, leaving the eastern creditors and Individuals to settle their own private deals. Interest on Nebraska's floating indebted- ness will cease on May 25. The first of the notices to warrant holders were sent out today, and the others will follow as rapidly as the clerks in the treasurer's office can compute the Interest. The order of the board regarding warrants issued for current expenses of the state has already gone into effect, and quite a number are taken up every day.
