More City Hall Scandals Come to Light at
Des Moines
INVOLVES THE POLICE DEPARTMENT
Receive Mpucy ms Forfeited bonds
which NEVER Reaches the city
Treasurer Nor Any other
LcEitimntc source.

DES MONIES, Dec S.-(Special Telegram)
Two new scandals developed at the city
hall today, and nearly every department Of
tae city government under the last admins-
tration is now in process of investigation.
Today's discoveries involve the police court
and tae Office OF city engineer. 1t is the
custom of police officers, who make arrests
at night to accept cash bonds from persons
arreo,ed for minor offenses. Those who
give these bonds very often fail to appear
and the bonds are forfeited to the city. For
long time the police have suspected that
not all the money thus turned over to the
police judge was finding its way to the city
treasurer An investigation developed that
they were right The police have turned
ouch money over to the clerk of police
court and it is found that in about a year
there has been q discrepancy of over $1,000
between the amounts turned over in this
way and the amount that reached the city
treasurer.
Police Judge f. W. Phillips lays the blame
at the door OF f. II. Blyler, who has been
clerk most of the time; but he admits, with
out any explanation, that he has not obeycd
the law requiring rim to make monthly re-
ports to the mayor of his receipts; he has
allowed from three to six months to eapse
between his reports.
b. E. Shreinor. for many years aa1lstant
city engineer, was today forced to resign

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS CoNvENTIoS

LINCOLN Dec. S.--(Specal Telegram. "A
special meeting of the Nebraska County Com
missloners and Road Supervisors association
convened at the Lindell hotel tonight. with
President II. w. Winter of Norfolk in the
chair. The meeting was called at this time
for the purpose Of formulating needed lcgis-
laton to be asked for at the coming session.
President Winter submitted reCOmmenda-
tions relating chiefly to the present imperrec-
ti.nJ of the states revenue system, in the as
sossment Of real and personal property. In hil
own county. Madison. where there Is prop
arty to the amount Of $40 600 O0O only 81 500. =
900 is returned. In many counties not one
fourth of valuation Is assessed. He Sug-
gosted that during the month Of December,
1897. the county clerk. county judge and
board of commissioners or supervisors should
appoint men of known business capacity and
resident taxpayers to value all real property
in their county and report same to the
county clerk for record; such appointces
to be under bond. and such valuation to
stand for four years. A county assessor
should be elected and necessary deputies
appointed to take property at its actual
cash value This will, 1t is thought do
away with the spectacle OF high taxes and
little property. Another necessary amend
ment will require the assessors to begin
on the second Monday in May, instead of
June, and thus turn in their books one
clerks. 1t should be mandatory upon asses
sors to use list supplied by the county clerk
of money loaned upon real estate and
chattel mortgages. Foreign capital, not as
sessel in other states, should be made to
bear its share, or proof adduced that it is
elsewhere taxed There should be a provi-
sion for assignment of chattel mortgages
and a 90 cent fee for filing same. A provision
should be made for the destruction of the
Russian thistle on school lands.
The following counties were represented:
Madison, Cass, Clay Nemaha. York, Platte
Saunders, Hamilton. Washington. Boone.
Seward Thayer, Stanton Pierce, Sarpy,
Dawes, Douglas.
The commissioners OF Lancaster county
recommended the full legali2atiOn and re-
qurement of the giving of guaranty bonds by
county officers especially county treasIrers
and report their experience with same sat
sfactOry where they have been received.
The meeting will adjourn tomorrow, after
taking action on legislative recommendations
