MONEY TO LOAN::,5 Property Savings Loan and Building Associat'n FARM Negotiated COUNCIL BLUFFS. Heport Made by COUNTY SUES JOHN §. NORGAN Oourt Resorted to to Collect Fees Baid to Be Unaccounted For, MORGAN SAYS HE OWES COUNTY NOTHING Bowman and Smith to the Bonrd of Supervisors in the Basis of the County's Claim, John 8. Morgan, former sherift of Pot- tawattamie county, and the sureties on his bond, A. B. Morgan of Wright township, Ernest E. Hart and Charles R. Hanoan, were served with notices yesterday that suit would be brought in the district court at the September term to recover $1,712.66, al- leged to be due the county by Morgan at the time be retired trom the office of sheriff, At the expiration of Morgan's term of office the Board of County Superyvisors em- ployed Thomas Bowman and Spencer Smith to make an investigation and examination of the books and accounts of the sheriff's office. The results of their investigation showed that Morgan was indebted to the county in the sum of $1,712.65. Of this | amount $1,176.99 was alleged to be feos which Morgan had collected, but had failed o turn over to the county treasurer. The remaining $636.66 represented the amount pald in salaries to the sheriff and his dep- | utles over and above the receipts of the office. The law provides that the salaries aid the sheriff and his deputies shall not exceed the receipts of the office. When the result of the examination of his accounts was made known to Morgan he clalmed that he had pald every cent that was due from him into the country treasury aud that a mistake must have been made somewhere. He intends to fight the suit and will employ an expert accountant to K0 over his books and accounts. Morgan has been seriously ill for several months and for this reason the countysboard delayed in bringing this action. It was also hoped Ly the county superyisors that a set- tlement could have been effected without taking the matter into the courts, Mor- gan's sureties on his bond are his brother, A. B. Morgan, a farmer of Wright town- ship; Ernest E. Hart, a private banker, and C. R. Hannan, cashier of the First National bank of this city. Commonwealth 10-cent cigar. HARDEN'S SECOND HEARING I8 SET. Alderman Hober Renews His Charges Agnlust Street mmissione According to present arrapgements the city council will meet next Monday night to investigate the charges preferred against Street Commissioner Harden by Alderm Huber, chairman of the streets and alley committee. The charges are substantially the same as those filed before Alderman Huber. The alleged incompetency and failure to keep proper records of the work done or men employed; that the street commissioner does not exercise good judg- ment and discretion in employing men or in the manner of performing the work which be attempts to perform. Ome new charge is made, and that is that he re- fuses to obey orders of the city council. This latter charge is the result of Har- den's falluro to apply to the streets and alleys committee for orders as he was directed. Pending the settlement of the street com- missionership muddle all work om the streets of the city has practically come 10 a standstill and the streets in the busi- ness portion of the city show visible signs of neglect. Harden has not yet fled his answer, but he i quoted as saying that when he does he will make counter charges against the chairman of the streets and alleys com- mittee, Park Board Matters. The Board of Park Commissioners held a special called meeting yesterday after- noon, at which the contract between the board and the motor company relative to the removal of the dirt now encumbering the entrance to Fairmount park was ap- proved and signed. By the terms of the contract the motor company will remove sufficient of the dirt on the east side of the cut to enable it to reach the tracks, while the commissloners will remove suf- fcient of the earth on the other half to make a driveway into the park. The con- tract further provides that the motor com- pany shall take care of the embankment on its side and the park board of the em- bankment on the opposite side. The motor company had given the con- tract for removing its portion of the dirt to Wickham Bros., but work was delayed until the contract between the company and the board was approved and signed. It was stated at the meeting yesterday afternoon that the work of removmg the dirt will be cowmenced at once, so that the company will be enabled to run its cars into the park by Sunday next The board agreed to lease to E. A. Wickham for & term of ten years a portion of the bluff in Lakeview park, the consid- eration paid by Wickham being $700. Of this amount $100 was paid yesterday and the remainder is to be paid in annual in- stallments of a like sum. The board fixed the levy for the ensuing year for park purposes at 1 mill and the secrotary was instructed to certify same up to the board of county supervisors, Elks' A The Elks of Omaha, Council Bluffs and Lincoln will hold their first joint annual outing Saturday afternoon and eveming at Lake Manawa and an elaborate program has been arranged for the gathering, which will be a stag affair.

Rev. Knox offered to com- promise his claim for $500, but the offer was rejected by the city council. Rev. Knox alleges that the injury re- ceived by him is permanent and for this reason asks for $5,000. For his medical expenses on account of the accident he asks for $50 and for the seven weeks, dur- ing which he says he was unable to per- form any work, he asks that the city puy bim $700.

DES MOINES, Aug (Special Telo- gram.)~ ernor. Shaw has appointed Congressman J. P, Dolliver of Fort Dodge United States sepator from lowa to suc- ceed John Menry Gear, The appointment Was anuounced at the executive office this evening. Governcr Shaw seat the following telcgram to Mr. Dolliver “To J. P. Dolliver, Fort Dodge, ordered commission made out you United States senator la.: Have appointing As soon as | the same is prepared it will be sigued and forwarded Mr. Dollive with Champ county, LESLIE M. SHAW." was eugaged in jolat debate Clark at Allerton, Wayne today aud Is expected in the city Mr. Dolliver is a resident of t, the Tenth. The appolnt- Dolliver will preclude the Shaw ever attaining to seat in the senate, which has been his ambition. Tho appointment, the governor believes, will be satisfactory to the whole of the Tenth istrict. While some of the members of the pres. ent leglslature from towns in that dis trict bave been friends of A, B. Cummins in his contest for the place of the late John H. Gear, the appointment of Dolliver will put & pew face on the situation for them in the opinion of the governor, and while they might have voted for Cummins formerly they will hesitate before they vote against Dolliver to throw him out of the federal senate. Mr. Cummins will make the fight before the legislature. MeCarthy's View of Appointment. C. G. McCarthy said tonight: “If Dol- liver and Cummins had been in each oth- er's places and the governor had appointed Cummins Mr. Dolliver and his friends would not have laid down and they would have been justified in declining to do so. Just 8o with Cummins. He is urged by his friends to make the fight, for it is an hon- orable contest and they are certain of victory. I procured fifty-six members of the legislature who asked Governor Shaw to appoint Cummins. That is three less than @ majority of the republican caucus, 1 offered to get seven more if the appoints ment was delayed. Mr. Cummins can de- Dolliver in the legislature and ia. side of a year and a half it will be United States Senator Cummins.” The friends of Mr. Dolliver insist that there is no way in which he can be de- feated. They ridicule the claim of the Cummins men that there are even six mem- bers of the legislature who come from disticts in the Tenth district that will vote for Cummins. They insist that the appointment is satistactory to the entire district. They believe that the governor ascertained the actual desire of the whole logislature before he made the appoint- ment. They are well satisfied with the situation. The appointment leads to a complication on congressional affairs in the Tenth dis- triet. Whila the eonvention that nomi- nated Dolliver gave the central committee power to select his successor, it is be- lleved that a convention will be regularly ealled. There will be many candidates, Senators Healy, Finch, Garst, Judge J. P. Connor, Fred Kuehnle, Gardner Cowles and maybe others. Judge Connor is from Denison. He is the original Shaw man and it 1s believed that in the appointment of Dolliver Judge Connor's chances for congress were greatly improved. This is merely political gossip. all for Peo Chairman A, W. ment of Mr. possibility of e's Party, Weeks of the middle- of-the-road people’s party today tssued a call for the state convention, which he says will be beld Tuesday, August 28, in this city. The committee of Des Moines citizens who have been investigating the Mabel Scofleld case for several months past to- day completed the work of ralsing an ad- ditional reward of $2,000 for the convic- tion of the murderer or murderers of the dead girl. Citizens of Macksburg, the home of the Scofield family, Lorimor, Winterset and other neighboring towng contributed liberally to the reward, and Treasurer Fagen will, within a few days, publicly offer the amounts subscribed for the con- viction of the guilty parties. This will be in addition to the governor's reward of $500 offered on a showing of evidence in possession of the committee. John Cownle of the State Board of Con- trol returned today from Mount Pleasant, where he went to investigate the case of John W. Stone, the superintendent of the industrial department, who i charged with selling state = institution supplies. Mr. Cownie found that the man, who is & graduate of the Institute for Feeble Minded at Columbus, O., s guilty, but that this 1s his first offense and the goods sold amount to only something like $100. He secured a complete confesslon from Stone. Stone, it seems, is weak minded and his attorney says that a Des Molnes detective and a Des Moines crook, who recently served a term in the asylum, are morally responsible for leading him into the game. REJOICE AT DOLLIVER'S HOME Fellow Townsmen of the New Sen- ator Give Exuberant Vent to Thelr Sutistaction, FORT DODGE, la., Aug. 22.—(Speciwt Telegram.)—Fort Dodge is wild with en- thusiasm and delight tonight over the ap- poiutment of Jonathan Prentiss Dolliver to the United States senate.

Dolliver him« selt 1s fn Allerton, Ia, where he had a debate today with Champ Clark, There is only one sentiment about the appoint- ment in Fort Dodge, where Dolliver came twenty-two years ago a penniless youth in search of his fortune. He has the af- fection and respect of the entire com- munity. Every man and woman here has been in anxlety waiting all day for the news from Des Moines.

Ninety per the rank and file of Tenth district are heartily for him, and while A number of his personal friends in the legislature from this district have been active friends of Mr. Cummins no doubt is entertained that they will cheerfully accede to the wishes of their constituents and vote for him. It is not believed that any of them will finally vete to eject him from a seat in the senate, which he will have held for over a year, and retire him to private life. Mr. Dolliver will resign his seat in the house immediately in order Jthat his successor may be chosen at the coming election. Little attention has bee given here to the district's successor, all possible Fort Dodge candidates have voluntarily lald aside their ambitions to advance the cause of Mr. Dolliver. It has been thought probable that Crawford, Car roll, Greene, Boone, Hamilton and Kos- suth will have candidates.
