balance due them for builniDg tie
High School. TIE com mittee 10 whom |
the bill was com United had up to this
:ime neglected to make any report, and
he thought the contractors shcud not
be made TO suffer for the neglect 81

drawn on the treasure for the amount
due, rs the bill will have 10 be pSlu
some time, and it might rs well be now
as ut any other time.
| The motion beiag seconded led toI
consider Bile discussion. Mr., Donahoe
! thought that as the chairman OF the
com mittte was absent, it was hardly
right to order the bill paid without

and favored the pay ment OF the bill I'M
less there was really something IN The
bill that should not be- there.
Mr.. Palmer said he was not ready
vet m vote nnon the motion. There
were charges In the bill that were ex
iorbitant and needed explanation. He
ltbou9ht the committee should be- given
another week. Mr.. Kyne, chairman OF
the committee, coming 10 during the
Idebate, said that he had been very busy
tor the last tW weeks and bad not had
time to make an Investigation, He
I,yas Satisfied that there we're charges
