LAW RELATING TO TAX SALES
WAS NOT STRICTLY AID
HERED TO
ACCORDING TO THE REPORT

Shown Some Purchasers-A Case
Cited Is That of w. o. Denegre,
Who Purchased $4,000 Worth
of Certificates in May, but Didn't
Pay for Them TIL July.
The investigation by Bank Examiner
Pope and his assistants into the conduct
of the county treasurer's office has dis
closed the fact that the Irregularities at
tending the May sale Of 1897 taxes were
not confined entirely to the county aud
itOr's office. 1t is charged that undue
favoritism was shown by the treasurer
to certain of the tax certificate purchas-
ers, and the matter will be brought to
the attention of the board Of county COM
missioners in the report of the examiner.
Under section 1892 of the General Stat
utes it is provided that the county
treasurer shall attend at the sale, and
receive all moneys paid thereon" At the
May sale, it is alleged, that William o.
Denegre, a financial agent at 3G7 Balti-
more building, purchased tax certificates
to the amount of $4,000, and that the
check in payment therefor was not re
celVeQ by the county unlll ninety QSty .
from the time the sale was closed. The
county treasurer, or his deputy, was
present during the entire time that the
sale was in progress, and through the al
legged favoritism shown Mr. Denegre he
was given the use of the $40, 900 for ninety
days, the money during that period prac-
tically drawing interest at the rate of
Il per cent per annum. the delay en-
aiding the fortunate bidder to ret about
$500.
That the law intends the immediate col
lection of the purchase price of the tax
to the county treasurer and his deputy,
is evidenced by the circumstance that.
according the books in the county treas
urer's office, the money is entered as re-
ceived from Denegre prior to May 81 al
though the sale was held in the first
week in May and Mr.. Denegre did not
receive his certificate nor make the pay
ment until late in July.
81 do not know anything about the
matter personally" said County Treas
urer Arosin yesterday. Our books snow
that the account was closed on May 81
County Auditor Johnson stated yester-
dav that he first learned of the delay
by Mr.. Denegre in making the payment
after the treasurer's receipt had been
produced, and the certificate given MIN

fcate until the money had been paid no

Position in the East.

Position IN the East.
c. P. Adams, superintendent Of tele-
graph of the Great Northern. has tender
ed his resignation. to take a post in the
East. effective Sept. l. His term of serv-
ice has extended over five years, during
which he has greatly improved the teie-
graph lines operated by the Great North
ern system and has made an excellent
record. His resignation is something Of
surprise and will mean a distinct loss
to the company, as he is considered an
expert in his own department.
Mr.. Adams takes position as super
intendent Of telegraph of the Central
Railway Of New Jersey, one of the
strong lines Of the East. His successor
in Office has not yet been named. Cen
eral superintendent Ward and President
Hill are both absent from the city, and a
choice will not be made before the first
of next week. Chief Clerk Forepaugh, of
Supt. Wards Office is said to be in line
for promotion to, the position, though he
has but recently been advanced.
Before taking service with the Great
Northern Mr.. Adams was assistant SUI
perintendent Of the telegraph of the Bal
timore & Ohio, with which road he was
connected for several years. Previous
to that connection he was employed in
the telegraph departments of several
@lIastern roads. He will leave on Monday

Trouble is brewing between the lake
lines and the all-rail lines via Chicago.
Vesselmen claim that they are carrying

year, while the all-rail lines are carrying

taken as conclusive evidence that the
rail lines are cutting freight rates The
Lake Michigan & Lake Superior Trans
portation company has made a freight
cut on all classes itemized in the West

The rail lines interested have protested
loudly against the action of the Lake

AN ABLE LECTURER.

Rev. W. H. Movers of Mobile,
Ala, delivered a series of lllustra-
ted lectures at the court house here
three nights this week. He had
good attendance the first night, a
larger one the second night and the
largesS one the third night, This
fact alone SPEAKS volume of praise
for Mr.. Movers and his entertain
ments. Mr. Movers is a brilliant
talker, and had for his subj ects,
Madagascar, Cuba and Palestine.
His lectures were beautifully illus
trated with steIeOptlcon making
them highly Interesting and in
stluctive. The Crock of Ages"
was especially beautiful, and he
was e9uested to repeat it at each
uf the two last lectures. In his
lecture on Cdba he dwelt at length
Oh the rich resources of the island
and gave some valuable pointers TO
the prospective youth of our town.
He says those who contemplate
visiting Cuba will find that the
quickest and cheapest route is via
the steamer, John Wilson, of the
Snyder Banana Company's line
from Mobile.
