THE SCHOOL BONDS.
Mr.. Gilbert, chairman of the committee,
submitted the following communication:
To the Honorable Board OF Education of
the City of st. Paul:
GENTLEMEN: At the last regular meeting
of your honorable body communication
was received from City Comptroller Roche,
which seems to require reply from me.
Mr.. Roche commences by saying that the
finance committee of the board were au-
thoriZed to negotiate the $4,000 high
school bonds, which is correct. He then
states that the committee exhausted
all endeavors by advertising
and consulting with bankers.
brokers and others, and could get no bids p
etc. This statement is incorrect. We had
by no means exhausted all endeavors, and
Mr.. Roche knew at the time called upon
him to get his certificate about the bonds
that 1 had that morning offered them to
Kountze Bros. New York, at the same price
paid by them for the city bonds, and that
my inquiry of him was to reply to their
questions, pending their acceptance, and
he also knew that had a telegram from
| another responsible firm asking the lowest
price for the bonds. Mr.. Roche says he
then asked me to allow him to offer the
bonds to Kountze Bros. at same price paid
for city bonds, and I consented" Mr.
Roche's memory is certainly in fault here
l have no knowledge whatever of such a
| question being asked me, and I am post
lively certain that did not consent to such
| a proposition, and the fact that Mr. Bailey
! cashier of the First National bank had tele-
graphed the same offer to Kountze Bros. at
| my request, will naturally tend to confirm
my statements. What Mr.. Roche says
about consulting with City Treasurer Refs
| and then telegraphing par offer on his
own responsibility would have bsen al
right, if he had consulted the finance COM
mittee instead of Mr.. Reis,and telegraphed
Oh their responsibility, instead of his own
The committee hoped and expected to
get as much for the school bonds as the
city bonds sold for, and had waited for the
result of that sale, partly on Mr.. Roche's
advice, and but for his hasty action they
are confident (as they previously reported
| they would have realized more for tine
bonds.
In concluding his report Mr.. Roche is
pleased to tell the finance committee
what they should have reported to your
honorable body. We appreciate lis kind
ness, and when at loss what to say in
future reports will gladly avail themselves
of his reliable counsel. Very respectfully
