Greensboro, KY, March 27.-The
Finance Committee of the City Coun-
Gil declined to open the bids Friday
for the sale of S225, 900 worth of city
bonds for the purpose of building
sewer extensions in Owensboro. j.
w. McCulloch, chairman of the FL
nance Committee, announced that
eminent bond attorneys of Chicago
would be engaged to investigate the
financial condition of the city of
Owensboro and make a report to the
committee on the present bonded in
and the chances for pay
ing off the sewer bonds at maturity.
Bidders were here from Louisville,

Money employed to good purpose

course of the proper maintenance

increase i'm the levy for municipal

The city budget will probably be

1t is necessary that the ordinance be
prepared before September 10. May

During the present year an uncA-
ampled heavy drain was made on the
street and contingent funds. Among
the larger unanticipated improve
ments, which should have been paid
for out Of the street fund. but for
which il was necessary to take money
from other funds. were the grading
of FIRST street. the constructing of a
storm i'm Egan avenue. the
taking over and maintaining of the
street sprinkling system. The eity's
share of the cost of building a per
manent bridge GRO the creek i'm
North Egan avenue is chargeable to
the street fund. To meet the heavy
demand on the street and contingent
funds it was necessary to take money
from the electric light fund, which
itself was heavily taxed through the
making of extensions and the re
moving of light wires from the main
streets. Extra money from the con
tingent fund went TO pay the expense
of maintaining the public rest room.
which is now operated at the city
expense.

BARN BURNS
LIGHTNING STARTS BLAZE
WHICH RESULTS IN A LOSS
OF So, 900.

Fire, caused early this morning by
lightning, did damage TO the amount
of about $4,000 TO the barn and con-
tents of julius KRISTEN on the north
shore of Lake Herman.
The lightning struck at about 3
O'Clock, and the blaze which resulted
was noticed a few minutes later.
The family reached the barn in time
to save a number of horses. With
the barn was lost about twenty tons
of hay, 1000 bushels of oats, three
buggies and machinery. Eight hun
dred dollars insurance vas carried
on the barn, which was large and
comparatively new, and $500 was
carried on the contents.
Rain, which fell while the barn
burned, probably saved nearby build
ings from catching fire.

MADISON COAL DEALERS SAY
FORESIGHTEDNESS IN BUY

Madison coal merchants are of the
opinion that if an extended period of

price at which fuel will be sold here
as one of who will be able to obtain
coal.
Advices just received here are to
the. effect that the available supply
of both hard and soft coal at the
Great Lakes docks are not only con
siderably less than they Were last
year at this time. but that industrial
conditions are such that there is ev-

age will grow more pronounced from
week to week, right up until the
close of lake navigation, early in De

STAY OF SENTENCE
EMBEZZLING WATERFOWL CITY
AUDITOR RAISES TECH
MICAH POINT.

WATERFOWL, Aug. II. ~ After
pleading guilty and receiving sen
tence Of four years on the charge of
embeZzlement, former City Auditor
o. NJ. Lane asked for a stay Of sen
tence and served notice of appeal
The bond was fixed at $4,000. and
efforts are now being made TO get
bondsmen. The appeal is based on
the contention that the Watertown
city government had no legal organ-
ization during the commission form.
therefore there could have been no
embezzlement. A guilty plea was en-
tered to the specific charge of appro-
priating $~1,337.35 in warrants paid
to the city by the county from March
l TO March Is. 1916.
Examination of W~atertown's rec
ords by the state public accountant
disclosed that Lane had submitted TO
the city commissioners bills for sup
plies which had never been ordered
or received or that when payment
was authorized he drew warrants and
had them cashed.
Lane vas automatically removed
from office last spring when Water
town changed from the city commits
sion TO the ALTERNATE plan Of govern
ment. lie was Immediately appoint
ed by the federal government TO his
post at Rapid City.
