QUESTION OF FUNDS.
Fears Express That Public School
Work May Be Crippled.

Supt. A. ]. Smith, of the public schools,
returned yesterday from the East and
South, where he spent his vacation, hav-
ing enjoyed very pleasant season of rest
and recreation. He will at once proceed
to put his house, or rather several big
houses, in order for the coming school
season, which opens Sept. II.
AS usual the question of funds to carry
on the school work for the fiscal year
is a mooted question, and fears are al
ready expressed that the work may be
crippled, if not seriously impaired
The amount at the disposal of the
board is S42O,OOO while the estimated cost
of conducting the system IS $566,OOO. Ac-
cording to the opinion of City Attorney
Markham the one and a half mills ap-
prcpriated by act of the legislature for
school purposes is special legislation, and
therefore unconstitutional. and unless
some way is had out Of the dilemma IT.
is feared that the schools 800 nave to
be closed by April 1. and perhaps earlier.

clared to Be Dangerous.
City Engineer CIaussen is of the ort,,
lon that while the Minnesota. Transfn,
railway company has appealed to the su.
preme court from the decision of the dis
trict court in the University avenue
bridge case. there is a possibility of tia
bridge being repaired this fall.
The bridge" said Mr. Claussen yes.
terday, SIS certainly in bad shane and 7
expect every day to hear of a bad acct
dent owing to the rotten condition of tba
roadway. If there should be an accident
there is no doubt but that the railroad
company would be held liable under the
decision of our district court recently
rendered. The work has got to be done
and the sooner the better. I shall visit
the railway officials and if possible get
them to do the repairing at once If the
company refuse to act in the matter
then steps will be taken by the city and
the expense will be charged up against
the railroad company and collected when
the supreme court has passed on the APP
peal
Mr.. Claussen favors permanent pave
ments being laid on the roadway of the
bridges in the city and will insist that a
brick pavement be laid on the University
avenue bridge The cost of repairing
and repainting the bridge, it is estimated,
will be $4,000. The Robert street bridge

Will Give Public Examiner All
tho Assistance in His Power.
County Auditor w. r. Johnson was
Yesterday notified informally by county
Attorney Bigelow that about S2'Ooo' That
had been Illegally paid out by the county
treasurer on auditors warrants must NC
returned to the treasury. FurthefIilole'
q warrant presented yesterday Tor pay
,,.nt nv Charles Clifford was refused. as
. rae711t of the Clio b o expose OF the
result of the investigation that the audi
tors office is now undergoing at the
bonds of Bank Examiner Pope and his
assistants.
Ar Investigation Of the books covering
several days disclosed the fact that So
525 43, that had been bid as premiums on
the 1897 tax sales that took place last
Nav. had been refunded to the bidders
in alleged violation Of the law that pro-
vides that the premiums must remain In
the county treasury until the property
covered has been redeemed. All day
Yesterday the state examiners were at
work on the books, and last night 1t was
developed that all of the money refund
ed. with the exception of about $4,000 was
on property that has since been redeem
ed. This $4,000, County Auditor Johnson
has been advised, will have to be re-
placed in the treasury.
A representative of Martindale & Co.,
of Minneapolis who had purchased
large number of the certificates and who
had not received his rebate, appeared
in the Office yesterday morning to pre-
sent his claim, but was refused, after a
personal interview with the auditor Pay
ment was also refused on a warrant that
had been drawn in favor of Charles Cliff
ford
81 have no further statement to make
in regard to this affair.". said County
Auditor Johnson last evening. 81 shall
await the report of the bank examiner.
1t appears the matter involves a much
smaller amount than at first appeared. 1t
seems that Mr.. Bourne was trying to
favor the st. Paul tax bidders at the
expense of the Minneapolis firm The
latter instituted the system of bidding
premiums, and Mr.. Bourne was much OPP
posed to it. 1t was never done prior to
1896 The county derived no benefit from
the premium money under any circum-
stances. l intend hereafter to be kept
informed in regard to all the details of
this office, and shall have an under
standing to that effect with Mr.. Bourne
when he returns from his farm, whittier
he went this morning. So far this in
Yestigation is concerned 1 shall see Gen.
