NOTHING DONE YET
IN INVESTIGATION
TRANSCRIPT OF TESTIMONY
WAS YESTERDAY LAID ON
THE DESKS OF MAYOR AND
TWO COMMISSIONERS.

No conclusion has yet been reached
in the recent investigation of alleged
payroll padding on the part of the
street foreman, and in explanation of
this delay it was yesterday explained
that the commissioners are yet unable
to reach conclusion from the fact
that they had not had the chance to
read over the testimony.
Commissioners have been busy for
the past several days looking into
the license business. Yesterday one
or two were out of the Office for the
greater part of the day, and they were
unable to get together on the question
Early yesterday morning the tran
script of testimony was laid before
each of the commissioners, and none
of them up to the hour of closing
of the city hall last evening had a
chance to read the notes as submitted
1t is the intention of the commits
sioners to get together some time
today, possibly this forenoon, and de-
termine what action may be decided
upon.

All of the real and personal prom

The sale was made under order of

OF the trustee of Peabody, Hough-

concern, who held the first mortgage
on the property.
The purchase price was $70,S00.OO
and the successful bidder was J. B.
Livingston, of Cleveland, Ohio, who
neld second mortgage for over
SZOO,OOO on the property.
The complainant was represented
IN the foreclosure suit by Hon. w. H.
Baker; of Jacksonville. A number of
junior lines were joined as defend
ants. Some of these were ]. B.
Livingston represented by S. E. Mat
thews, Esq, of Jacksonville; J. M.
Fowler represented by R. Don Nc
Leod, Esq, of Apalachicola; and n
number of employees who had liens
for labor and who were represented
by c. H. B. Floyd, Esq, of Apalachi-
cola.
Some interesting questions of pri-
critics between junior liens arose in
the progress of the case. The labor
liens were decreed to be prior to the
Livingston mortgage which by an
oversight Of those who drew it was
not under SEAL A Judgment in the
United States court was held to be
no lien because it was not recorded
IN Franklin county; this judgment
was for ten thousand dollars and was
in favor of Mobile firm.
By compromise settlement the
decree provided that a contract to
market a large amount of the timber
held by Mr.. Fowler was not affected
by the sale and was binding on the
purchasers and 81 100000 was decreed
to be paid to Fowler's solicitor. The
lease on part of the land of turpen-
tine privileges was also not affected
by the sale. The lessee was Carr

and one time candidate for congress
who resides in DeFuniak Springs, but

1t is estimated that in addition t.
the cypress and pine timber on the
tract of land sold there are hundred
million feet of hardwood, the price o.
which is steadily advancing.
It is understood that the purchaser
has not decided whether the mill vii
be operated by him or not.
The sale attracted a good deal Of
attention and a group of fifty or sixty
spectators assembled at the cour
house to witness the sale.
