WON TPAY THE CLAIM
County Commissioners Make
Final Decision.
MUST HAVE COURT ORDER
Nothing viii be Agreed to
Till Bond Suit is Settled.

Thecounty commissioners have finally
decided that no money OF the $4,000 claim
ed by the city will be paid over unless by
a court order. They have also finally de-
cided that they will not agree to any
statement of facts TO be submitted to
Judge Dale until after the Doran bond suit
is settled for the reason that such state
ment might in some way prejudice the
suit of the county against the Doran
bondsmen.
Chairman Wilson OF the board said yes
terday that as soon as the suit now pend
ing against the bondsmen of Doran in
his first term is finally settled he thought
that the difference between the city and
county could be settled without much diff
fculty.
I'VE can get together on a statement
of facts" he said, land submit it 10 Judge
Dale and let him decide whether or not
the $4,000 claimed by the city is due it,.
That is the only way the city can get any
money from the county while am chair
man of the board. We do not think the
city is entitled to any money from the
the county to pay over any money on a
claim which we thought unjust unless by
an order from the court. II would be
| poor business. If the city does not want
| TO wait until the Doran matter is settled
and then get together with US upon an
agreed statement of facts. it can go ahead
| and sue for the amount it claims. If an
| order is secured from the court the money
will be paid, but not in any other way"
| This is final upon the report of the city.
| The finance committee of the city council
| has as yet reached no decision as to a
| procedure. There is a difference in the
amounts claimed. The city claims $4,000
| and states that the report Of the county
! expert shows more than this to be due
! the city The commissioners will not
| make public the special report Of Mr.
Patterson on the difference of the city and
| county until after the Doran suit is fin
! ished. The city attorney and finance com
mittee have been instructed to bring suit
! but thematter has been delayed in the
| hope of affecting a compromise.
