TEE BOARD OF FINANCE

board of education, now in the possess
sion of that board, and to ask advice as
to the disposition of the money until it
is needed.
The board of education about two
months ago had drawn up and approx
ed a resolution for the issue of $4S000
worth of bonds, the proceeds of which
was to be used to pay off floating in
debtedness and to build a new high
school. When the resolution was sub
mitted to the board of finance for ap-
prevail Mr.. Dewell and Controller Rowe
of that board counselled against the
issue and voted against the resolution.
They urged that a more judicious and
commercial method would be to issue
notes in anticipation of the bond issue
as money was needed for the new high
school, and to pay floating Indebtedness
and not to issue bonds until the while
amount had been used and the money
secured from such issue of notes. They
argued that in this way the city would
be obliged to pay interest only on the
amounts as borrowed on notes, instead
of being obliged to pay interest on the
entire bond issue at once.
Mr.. Curtis and other members of the
finance board thought, however, that
the bonds should be issued at once it
was so voted, Messrs Curtis, Wright,
Wheeler, and Atwood voting in favor
of the issue and Messrs. Dewell and
Rowe against it.
The bonds were issued, and of the

conversation between the abductors
and himself the young man learned
that the abductors had been seeking to
abduct one of the girls of the family
and had been planning this for four

The bandits made no explanation 10

night or never Follow these instruc-
tons and no harm will befall you or
yours"
Mr.. Cudahy last night followed out
the instructions given in the letter,
leaving the $25 900 in gold as hidden.
When young Edward Cudahy arose
this morning he was questioned con-
corning the circumstances of his disap-
pearance and told the following:
He said that he was in front of Gen.
eral GOWNS house just across the
street from his own home, on his way
back from the Rustin residence Tues
day evening, when two men approached
him. One of them stepped up to him
and said: 1--WE are sheriffs from Sarpy
county and arrest you as Eddie Nc
Gee, who escaped from the reform
school"
The lad replied that he was not the
mythical Eddie MCGEE, but his captor9
said that he would have to be identi-
ied. They placed him il d busy and
drove away. AS they approached Leav
enworth street a motor car passed
them. The lad recognized the conduc-
tor and said to his captors: There is
man who knows me; he can identity
me-"
But the captors Immediately blind
folded him and whipped UP the horse.
Presently they came to a house which,
in the opinion of the lad, is somewhere
in the southwestern part of South
Omaha. Young Cudahy was taken
from the buggy and placed in a room
and chained to the floor. He remained
there all night and the next day. The
chains on his feet prevented him from
getting a good view of his surround
ings, even after the blindfold had been
