was represented by F. F. Bingham,
was then invited to take a seat within
the council chamber. This he did,
and Mr.. Bingham, introducing no testi-
mony to contTovert the city's case,
made an argument for Mr.. Rowland
in which many points were advanced
and the case reached from many
angles. The argument consumed about
half an hour. In the course of the
talk, Mr.. Bingham presented what he
termed many inconsistencies, citing
the allegation that the consulting ell
gineer, Mr.. Hatton, directing the eX-
pendituTe of many hundreds Of dol
lars, was under no bond at all, and
the bond trustees, directing the expen-
diture and handling about a million
dollars, were under bonds of but S15,-
900. other instances of this nature
were also cited in the defense
MR.. THIESEN SPEAKS.
Asking permission to make a few
remarks, Chris Thiesen stated that
the treasurer had been elected by the
people who had voted for some OF the
alderman and the mayor, and he did
not think it right to Dust him in the
proposed manner.
Alderman COncannon made it known
that he could not understand why the
city exacted such a large bond when
it had already designated a depository
and had practically taken the funds
from the treasurer.
In bringing up the question, follow
ing Mr. Bingham's argument, as to
whether Mr.. Rowland was guilty or
not guilty" of the charges which the
mayor had preferred. Alderman Dun
ham desired enlightenment. He asked
if a vote of guilty" carried with It
Impeachment. He was informed that
if the majority voted him guilty" it
meant OUsting from his office of the
treasurer. Alderman Durham did not
like that state of things and so ex-
pressed his opinion.
Alderman Williams, speaking direct
~ upon the case, said that the treas
Urer was in a predicament, but that he
was not responsible for such a condI-

tee, to whom was referred the com
municatiOn of Harry T. Rowland, re-
Questing a reduction in the amount oil

upon the conditions stated inssaid com
muniCatiOn, beg leave to report.
That they have carefully considered
such, in connection with the city attOr-
ney, and are of the opinion that there
is no stuff cient reason for the reduc-
ton in the amount of the bond re-
quired of the city treasurer, and on ac-
count of the duties and powers i'm
posed upon the said officer, that ii
would be illadvised and unsafe to
make a reduction in the amount of
the bond to the extent and upon the
terms proposed, and the city attorney
advises that the city cannot enter into
a binding and legal agreement as sug-
gested."
The report was signed by each mem
Der of the committee
The report was adopted without a
dissenting vote. but with some ex-
plantations by some of the aldermen,
who held that the city attorney had
advised such an agreement as pro-
posed could not be legally adopted
and no reduction was advised.
THE TRIAL STARTS.
A resolution by Alderman DeSilya,
which was adopted, then put the case
squarely up for trial. This was as
follows:
Resolved, That the council hear
and determine the character of the
charges which have been preferred, and
that the oath be administered to each
member of the council
This was adopted
The city attorney then presented
the case in a few words. He said that
the law required the treasurer to fur
nish bond, which had not been done,
and to prove it, he introduced as wit
nesses Clerk AymaTd and Mayor
Reilly. Both OF them were put under
oath and each Of them stated that the
treasurer had not furnished the bond.

ton. He further maintained that the
finance committee had recommended
that the bond remain as it was now
and the report and recommendation
had been accepted. He thought the
council had no discretion in the matter
at this but to vote guilty"
Alderman Bear said that as a mat
ter of fact the question was beyond
any sympathy now. He had sympathy
for the treasurer, but the ACCESSIBILITY
of reduction Of the bond had been con-
sidered, and had been reported upon.
He did not think the aldermen had
any other alternative but to vote as
their Oaths required upon this Ques-
ton.
Alderman Kent did not appreciate
the idea of "railroading the treasurer
out Of Office" as he expressed il. He
wanted to give the treasurer a chancs
to make a bond, but he did not think
that the adoption Of the finance COM
mittCe report carried with it the re-
mOval of the treasurer unless the bond
as stated was not made.

made ready for final consideration at

Alderman Williams. and the meeting
