COLGAN DECLINES.
REFUSES TO PAY WHITTIER
ARCHITECTS BILL.
Says That Buildings Cannot be
Constructed From the Mainten-
ance and Support Fund.

The Trustees of the Whittier School
have decided to try another tack in
their effort to use the maintenance and
support fund of that institution for the
purpose of erecting additional build
ings.
About a week ago a claim for $12 so,
for work done by an architect on plans
for the proposed new buildings, was ap-
proved by the Board of Examiners and
forwarded to Controller Colgan. The
latter promptly notified the Board of
Examiners that he would not draw his
warrant on the Treasurer for the
amount on the ground that no perma-
nent Improvements could be made with
money taken from the maintenance
and support fund of the institution
that fund being designated in the war
rant as the one from which the build
ing money should be drawn.
Yesterday morning John w. Mitchell
Of Los Angeles, attorney for the Trus-
tees of the Whittier School, personally
called on Controller Colgan and pre-
sented claims for architects fees and
for advertising for bids, aggregating
~, ,447.76
Attorney Mitchell stated that in his
OplnlOu the Sldlult governing the IIldl-
ter makes approval of claims for build
ing purpose by the Board of Examin-
ers Superf1uous, and that the Controller
alone had right to audit such claims.
He requested Controller Colgan to draw
his warrant for the total sum- but after
a wait of a few minutes was handed
the following formal reply:

THE ATTORNEYS EMPLOYED.
City Trustees Ratify the Contract
for Fifteen Hundred Dollars.

An adjourned meeting of the Board
or Trustees was held last evening for
the purpose of ratifying the contract
entered into between the Mayor and
the President Of the Board of Trustees
and Attorneys c. T. Jones, Elwood Bru-
ner and Alvin j. Bruner, by which the
attorneys named We're retained as spe-
cdal counsel in the suit of w. Z. Henry,
brought to recover from the city SOIL
OOO for alleged violation of the con-
tract entered into with him to supply
the city with water from wells situated
near Oak Park. Those present were
Trustees Mckay, Dolan, Brown, Kent,
Douglas, Paine and Tebbets.
The contract was read. Briefly II
sets forth that Attorneys c. I. Jones,
Elwood Bruner and Alvin j. Bruner
are retained as special counsel to assist
Corporation Counsel Devine in hand
ling the defense for the city, they to
receive 81 800.
Trustee Tebbets moved the contract
be approved.
Trustee Kent opposed the approval
of the contract. Before the new char
holders believed the employment of a
500 year, would save money for the
city by making unnecessary the en-
ployment of special counsel for import
ant suits in which the city might be a
party He believed he said, that Cor
poration Counsel j. B. Devine is as
able as any who have held the position,
and that he is entirely capable of at
tending to the suit pending. He was
- ;,,;v
torneys every time a case of any i'm
portance was brought. The City Attor-
ney was capable of settling minor
points, and if when important matters
come up special counsel is 10 be en-
ployed. he thought it advisable to do
away with the salaried position of Cor
poration Counsel.
Trustee Dolan inquired of Trustee
Kent whether he had voted to retain
Attorneys McKune and George in suit
brought when Robert T. Devlin was
Corporation Counsel.
Trustee Kent admitted that he had
voted to retain the attorneys named,
but that he had done so because Mr..
Devlin was an interested party and
was, therefore, disqualified from act
ing.
The roll was called and the contract
ratified by the following vote:
Ayes-Trustees Tebbets, Paine Doug
las. Brown, Dolan and McKay-6.
Nos-Kent.
A motion that the City Surveyor be
sustained in his condemnation of the
Bailey sidewalk in front of the old
Postoff1ce building, at Fourth and K
streets, was carried by a unanimous
vote
On motion of Trustee Tebbets it was
agreed to meet Saturday evening at 3
o'clock to confer with the Mayor as to
the best method of settling the bonded
debt question. Accordingly an adjourn
ment was taken until Saturday even
