FLAW IN THE SHUGART TITLE
Attorney Suggests Having Property
Taken Under Right of Emil
nent Domain.

City Attorney Snyder. to whom the mat
ter was referred by the library board, has
decided that there is a flaw In the title
to the e. l.. Shugart property at the COR
ner Of First avenue and Sixth street, Sc
leoted as the site for the Carnegie library
building. In a communication to j. j.
Stewart. secretary Of the library board,
Mr.. Snyder has suggested that the trustees,
in order to avoid possible legal compiled.
lions. not only take warranty deeds from
Mr.. Shugart and the other heirs Of the
estate OF Mrs. Angela Shugart. but go
through the form OF condemning the prop
erty for a library site as provided by law.
The property selected by the library
board for the site Of the Carnegie building
formerly was the property Of Mrs. Angela
Shugart, and at her death she willed a
life interest in II to her husband, r. L,
Shugart, the title at his death TO go to
their two sons. In the event OF either o!
the sons dying without issue before their
father, the sons interest was to revert
20 the children Of the other. One Of the
sons is still unmarried and It Is claimed
by City Attorney Snyder that the wording
Of the will relating to the homestead Is
capable Of several constructions, and under
these circumstances 1t would be advisable
for the library board to avoid risk Of future
litigation by oondemning the property fol
library purposes. which II has a right to dc
under the Law.
The trustees are scheduled to meet Mon
day evening. when action will be taken
II Is said, in this matter and the suggestion
Of Mr.. Snyder carried out.

DIES MONIES. May 6.-(special)-The
state convention of the order OF Modern
Woodmen met today and began what prom
Uses to be one Of the hottest conventions
ever held here. There are about 200 dele
gates present. They we're welcomed by
Governor Cummlns, and Head Consul Jerry
Green Of Davenport delivered his annual
address to the state convention. In this
address he started the trouble by making a
savage attack on the national officers Of the
order and denouncing the plan Of revision
OF the business OF the order as outlined by
Northcott. Hawes and others of Illinois.
This attack created a sensation and 1t was
suggested that inasmuch as one of the ma
tional officers was present he be called to
the stand to make som explanation. Head
Director C. G. Saunders Of Council Bluffs
defended the head officers and shove that
the affairs Of the order had been we'll man
aged. He strongly defended Halves and
other ~ofictals. A question came up on the
appointment of a credentials committee,
and because of the fact that there are sew
eral contests an effort was made to secure
appointment by the body of the convention.
This was opposed by Green. who claimed
the right to name the committee, and for
several hours the convention was in tur-
moil over this question. At the noon hour
a compromise was agreed on and Green was
allowed to name the committee, with the
understanding that the contests from Polk
and Clinton counties shall be referred d.
rectly to the convention. The committee
consists Of Messrs. John NJ. Mercer, F. X.
Stebbins, r. e. Leach, w. S. Hart, J. P.
Main, J. z. Palmer, J. J. Courtney, Prof.
Hussey, j. J. Stewart, ]. d. Porter and r.
Gerlach. The contests from counties re-
late entirely to the question Of endorsing
the national or head officers.
McPhersOn Expects to he Judge.
The friends Of Judge Mcpherson of the
southern district Of Iowa are claiming for
him that he is almost certain Of the APP
pointment TO the circuit court bench to sue
coed Judge Caldwell. On behalf Of McPher-
son 1t is now being asserted that at the
time he was appointed 1t was at a sacrifice
to his personal interests and that he ac-
cepted 1t only on condition that President
Mckinley would show a disposition to do
better by him. At that time it was fore
seen that Judge Caldwell would retire in
a few years and 1t Is asserted that Presl-
dent Mckinley gave to Mcpherson a prom
Use that he should be named to succeed
CALDWELL on the circuit bench. Now the
friends Of Judge Mcpherson are insisting
that this pledge be kept and that he be
given the appointment. There has been
considerable opposition to Judge McPher-
sons promotion in the state and represent
tations have beenumade to the president
that his selection would not be at all sat-
isfactory to the recognized leaders in state
politics in Iowa at the present time.
