about a month ago 20 the bond buyers.
spitzer- Rorick Of Columbus. O., and
Inislaid were discovered at the company'a
office. was the news received by City
Clerk Frank Good yesterday. NJ
The bond company reported that the
papers were mislaid among some other
transerlptlonH of South omaha bonds
which had been filed awaiting the otys
determination whether the issue should
be comprised In one batch OF In many.
The park bond histories after being re-
ceived by the bond company were filed
with the papers pertaining TO the paw
ms Improvement district bonds.
The delay has caused the city clerk con.
siderable worry because OF the charges
that he had been a party TO the seques-
tration OF the papers for some Interior
motive. As soon as Mr.. Good learned OF
the complaint made by those interested
IN the park bonds he wrote the bonding
company and received reply yesterday.
The letter OF splitter Rorick company In
dicated that the work OF reading tho
histories would be taken up at once and
pursued without delay. This will probably
assure the marketing Of the park bonds
before January 1.
