LINCOLN, Sept. 27.—(Special Telegram.)— The Board of Public Lands and Buildings held a secret session today, which was con- tinued until a late hour this evening. Re- porters were barred out and the ‘‘public’ business was conducted behind closed glass doors, draped with American flags. All members of the board were present. There wera four bids for the electric light plant at the Grand Island Soldiers’ home, but none of them were opened today, and the whole matter was laid over uotil Monday, The bid- + were John T. Burt, Omaha; F.

The other bids were for new plants outright. There was the exp-cted kick from some of the bidder whon they learned that the board had an- ticipated & part of the deal by purchasing an engine and dynamo. It was to adjust this little difficulty that the board is said to have postponed the matter until Monday. No hint s given out tonight as to how th board expects to square itself, but a number of prominent republicans in Lincoln and Beatrics are saying that the first business of the republican party should be to turn down Russell and Churchill The matter of the bouncing of Supérinte ent McKelvey from the Girls' Industrial hom 3 The session law passed last winter under | at eva was talked over.
