The work of the special legislative
committee appointed by the general
assembly to Inquire into all of the de-
tails of the purchase by the county
commissioners of the property of the
Wheeler Beers estate, in Bridgeport.
purchased from Merle Cowles, ended
Saturday. The last day's session was
not as exciting as the others, and it
was apparent. to the committee that
they were glad that the end had arriv-
ed. The outcome of the committee in-
vestigation is that none of the county
commissioners were be‘nefllted by the
deal. That was the real point at issue.
The bank books of the members of the
board were under scrutiny, and the
entries that might have been in-
volved In the transaction have been
explained away. There are two opin-
ions as to the price paid by the county
for the property. .
One opinion is that they paid an
excessive rate for It. and the other is
that they paid a fair rate for It. The
opinion that the commissioners paid
an excessive rate will probably be
reunited and‘ls generally entertained.
Besides that the opinion of Judge Gu~
gH' that the sum of $5,500 was a fair
price for the property will hardly be
contradicted by the committee. The
most. Important fact brought out by
the hearings was that Merle Cowles
urchased the property from the ad

inistrntor of the estate for the sum
of $5,500 and twenty-four hours later
sold the same property to the county
commissioners for $13,600, making a
clean profit of $8,100. It was a good
day's work and Mr. Cowles had a
good time for severel weeks after, and
gave Frank w. Beers, the sum of $2..

ment. or security. It was a splendid
test of friendship and trust for this
age of materialism and skepticism.
Mr. Beers was the important witness
Saturday. The commissioners did not
allow him to make a statement of mat-
ters about the estate,‘ and of Mr.
Beach's administration, which was an-
other issue foreign to thepurposes of
the hearing. He said that he consider
ed the jail property worth $13,600 and
added he Was willing to pay $15,-

the transaction.
It was purely a loan and in no sense
a gift. He denied that It was given to
fix him so that he would not protest
to prevent the deal, for he did not

he missed several good throws.

’In the next the locals chalked up
five more, the first one being McKler-

Fleischman, Leonard , and James,

the other four.

box. Cahill was hit by the pitcher and
Cnney singled. Both tallied, but the.
