Disapproves Recommendation.
The same committee discussed City
Engineer Kelsey's recent suggestion TO
the council that the work OF enlarging
the City creek water system be imme-
diately proceeded with, or the pipes,
which have been uncovered, have dirt
thrown over them again. Mr.. Kelsey
had recommended that the present
pipes be taken up and replaced by
larger ones.
The committee decided to recover the
pipes and to disapprove the engineer S
recommendation relative to increasing
Iheir size. Instead, a recommendation
Will be made to the council that another
system, of equal size with the one now
in use, be put along by the side of 1t.
II is stated that in this way if one set
of pipes becomes clogged or unfit for
use, the other set can be used and
water consumers relieved from the pos
sibility of annoyance.
Want Directors Present.
The committee ON municipal laws

have anything to do with trust of the
stock. He said that he understood the
transaction was an outright sale.
Mr.. Cunningham's Security.
The stock was delivered to Cunning
ham and he still holds it, maintaining
that he purchased Beck's equity out
right, paying forsit this $4,000 or s24,-
600. No one can tell how much the
equity is worth, though the. attorneys
are very sure that it is. and was, worth
much more than $4,000.
With the aid of Bryant S. Young,
private secretary to Mr.. Beck, who was
called to the stand, it was figured out
by the attorneys that Mr.. Beck now
owes the syndicate trust $4,000. That
is a rough estimate. The stock at S4.50
is worth 1929, 500, which would indicate
that Mr.. Cunningham made a safe bar
gain if he purchased the equity of re-
demption for $4,000.
Wanted the Presidency.
He said that Cunningham always adj
mitted that he held the stock in trust,
and had on one occasion threatened to
never return it unless he (Beck) re-
signed the presidency of the Bullion
Beck company in Cunninghan's favor.

Contest Over Trusteeship.
There will be rather excited ses-
sion of Mr.. Beck's creditors at Referee
Baldwin's office at 10 O'Clock Monday
morning to choose a trustee for the
estate. The contest will arise over the
dispute as to whom may vote for him.
According to the law only unsecured
creditors may vote. Cunningham
claims to be, unsecured; so does Mrs.
Annie T. Hyde, as well as many
others.
There are so far known four eandi-
dates for the position of trustee, and
quite a campaign is being waged.. Bry-
ant S. Young is said to be the candi-
date of Judge Marshall and Mr.. Beck;
Attorney c. B. Stewart is said to be
favored by Hyde and Cunningham Mr..
Ritter. a clerk in Judge Zane's office, is
said to be candidate. and Attorney A.
F. Schroeder will likely vote for E. w.
Wilson.
Creditors must file their detailed
claims with Referee Baldwin before
Monday if they hope to vote at the
meeting.
