Decision Of the Supreme Court in Regard t
Special Assessments.
IN DREAD or DEFICIENCY JUDGMENTS
willing to Lose the Property In

Pursued with an ENecu-
tion Forever.

There Is considerable anxiety among the
property owners who have claims upon lots
lying in portions Of the city where the street
improve ments have entaiIed a debt tat Is
considered to lie iu excess Of the value OF
the property. The recent decision Of the
Iowa supreme court. defining the powers Of
,.ty councils relating to public improvements
and conferrrg the power to take deficiency
judgments in all cases where the distress and
sale Of the property has failed to realize
the amount Of special assessments, is the
cause OF their anxiety. Suits that have been
started in several Iowa cities since the de-
cision Of the Des MOines case or were pend
ing prior to it have been forced into judg
ments against the property owuers, and III
a number OF cases deficiency judgments rave
! been taken. As there are now peudlng in
/ the Couuci, Bluffs courts similar suits which
will result In judgments in the course OF
Z time amounting TO at least $4,000, some OF
! the property owners are becoming slightly
| appreheEsive that the CITY may continue to
| take deficiency judgments when the property
! taken for Improvement taxes IS sold TO the
| highest bidder and fails to bring the amount
of the debt The first batch Of these suits

the lots ranged from Si622 to 5000 II
! all OF these cases the Judgment is far less

no fear of deficiency judgments, but In many
/ of the other cases pending. some in the su-
perior and others in the district court, the
