CONTROLLER TO
sign WARRANT
Believes He Is Not Expected to Pay
Expense of Fighting Application
for a Mandamus.

City Controller Howell has decided
to sign the warrant for $1,000, being
the first payment on the lots pur-
chased by the school board from P.
McNally, OF the Sixth ward.
The school board on Monday night
directed its attorney to go into court
and apply for mandamus compelling
the controller to sign the warrant If
he persisted in refusing to do so.
The controller said yesterday to a
Tribune man that he believed court
would grant such mandamus unless
he fought the granting of it and to do
this would mean that he would have
to go to the expense of engaging a
lawyer. He believes that while it is
his duty to prevent as far as poss-
BILE the payments of any excessive
bills by either the city or the school
district, that nevertheless he cannot
be expected to dive down into his own
pocket to pay for the taking of cases
into court.
He said that very little public in
terest has been taken in his endea-
vors to prevent the paying of this
"eNorbitant BILL" as he terms it.
Should any taxpayer or taxpayers as
sure him that they would be willing
to bear part of the expense of fight
ing the application for lnandamus
he might feel constrained to see the
matter through. but as no one has
evinced such desire, he will un-
doubtedly sign the warrant.
The arguments of the two viewers
appointed by the building committee
regarding the extra expense of hiring
annexes and the impossibility of OBJ
tanning such anneXes IL the Corcoran
property were purchased, appear to
the controller to be reasonable enough
hut he is still firm in his conviction
that $4,000 and the school property is
too much to pay for the McNally lots.
