CITY COUNCIL IH SPECIAL MEETING To Adjourta Voted Down When Discussion of Bender Deal Comes Up A special meeting of the city council was called by order of the mayor Monday night. The suit of the Oberchain-Boyer people for final settlement of fire truck which was wrecked also the suit of the Brown family for payment for dirt used for the mill pfcnd fill, the matter of heating: plant for the city hall, which has been broken by freezing and the matter of the Bender deal were the subjects under consideration. The two lawsuits are due to be heard soon and Attorney Cowlin agreed to represent the city at these suits. The matter of the heating plant was thoroughly discussed and the purchasing committee was instructed to buy proper repairs. The further action of the committee was to request bids from the local plumbers and the contract was awarded to H. E. Buch for the installation of another Areola heat unit and repairs. After the discussion of the heating difficulties Aid. Kreutzer moved to adjourn. At the same time Aid. Bonslett mentioned something about the Bender case and after some little discussion on the matter Kreutzer requested action of the board on his motion to adjourn. Aid. Stoffel wanted to know why it was that it was necessary for some members of the board to vote for adjournment every time some old matters were brought up. Aid. Knox called for the question to be put to a vote and Aid. Doherty and Kreutzer voted for adjournment. Aid.

Much hot discussion followed. One of the questions was asked by Knox as to why Mayor ^rett had held the deed to the Bender property and had it recorded without any city records to show of the transaction or that the city had ever acquired the property. The agreement signed by the old board was left in the hands of the city clerk for safe-keeping. During the discussion of the Bender matter Aid. Doherty walked out. As he went out the door he asked to be excused, but as there seemed to be no harmony at the meeting Aid Stoffel made a motion for adjournment, to which Kreutzer voted "no" and the three remaining aldermen voted "yes."
