SAYS LIEDTKE
REFUSED HIM
BuL-P. COX

He was very unmannerly, dis
courteous, and acted in way not
usually followed by city officials, E"
declared Pleasant F. Cox in reply
to the query Of City Attorney ]. K.
Scott as to why Mr.. Cox. who is
now presenting a bill to the city
for a horse. alleged to have been
hired by former Commissioner
John Liedtke. had not presented
the bill during the former admin
istTation.
Every time I presented the bill
before the commission. said Mr..
Cox, Commissioner Liedtke would
offer resolution that the bill be
not allowed. I tried to see him
privately but he merely insulted
me by his overbearing manner
The present commission seemed
to favor the bill of Mr.. Cox. they
taking the stand that the city is
liable if Mr.. Liedtke represented
that the horse was for the city. In
the event that he hired the horse
for his personal use it would be
up to Mr.. Cox to collect the bill
from Mr.. Liedtke himself.
Mr. Cox declared before the COM
mission. yesterday. that if the city
would merely pay for feed of the
animal during the time Mr.. Liedtke
used it, be would be perfectly sat
isfied. He only wanted justice. he
said.
The matter was referred to City
