COURT CASE IS POSSIBLE six Five Offers Made for Purchase of First Block of $300,000, but All Are Too Low. Legal status of the $3,000,000 issue of school bonds, voted recently by Portland people for construction of new buildings, will be fixed by an opinion to be obtained from Storey. Thorndyke, Palmer & Dodge, inter nationally known specialists of New York. Such was the formal action of the members of the board of edu cation taken at a meeting late yes terday afternoon upon recommenda tion of Frank L. Shull, chairman, and Stanley Myers, district attor ney, adviser to the directors. This opinion. If it states unequivo cally that the bonds are without legal impediment, will settle the question which arose when a Chi cago law firm, acting for a pur chaser of $300,000 of the issue, de clared them fatally defective be cause of a technical alleged error in posting of the election notices. It is conceded generally that a fav orable opinion from this firm of specialists will be sufficient to guarantee the issue to the most ex acting buyers or agents for buyers. Court Action May Be Taken. In case the bond specialists find in the issue any flaws, these will e referred formally to the supreme court of Oregon for an opinion, with suggestions as to how they may be remedied, and it is altogether prob able, according to the district at torney, that the matter can be ad justed speedily. Bids for the first block of $300,000 of the bonds put on the market were rejected yesterday after the business committee of the school board had scrutinized them. When the bids were opened at noon it was found that five offers had been made by three different firms or combinations of firms. After some little discussion it was agreed to refer the bids to the business com mittee, with Director Thomas added to its membership. J. K. Martin. as chairman of the committee, reported during the aft ernoon that all the bids had been turned down. The next step, he said, will be to prove the legality of the bonds. "The bids were not satisfactory," sam Chairman Martin. "It was our opinion that we can obtain better bids once the legality of the bonds nas Deen established to the satisfac tion of everyone." Cyrus Pierre Bid Bent. : The bid of Cyrus Peirce & Co ii conjunction with the Bankers' Trust company of New York, offering to take the bonds at 4 per cent in terest and pay a premium of $1617 was found the best of those tendered yesterday. Clark, Kendall Co. of Portland, in co-operation with Halsey, Stuart & Co. of Chicago, made a bid of par for the bonds if issued at 4 per cent interest. If issued at 5 per cent interest this combination of firms offered a premium of $2250. They presented a third offer, in which they pledged to engage a noted bond attorney to pass on the issue and defend it, upon payment of three-fourths of 1 per cent. Robertson & Kwing, Portland firm, presented a bid offering to take the bonds at par if issued to yield 4i per cent interest. They demanded an option, however, on the errtire issue of $3,000,000. The block of bonds offered yes terday bad once been sold to a syn dicate composed of the Ladd & Til ton bank and two Chicago bond houses, but was turned back when the firm of attorneys employed by them found a technicality they could criticise in the call for the bond election. When the school board met to consider the matter last Friday a syndicate composed of six local bond houses presented a bid under which they offered to take the entire issue Jit par and $3000 premium if issued to yield 5 per cent. The board .sum marily turned down this bid as forc ing too high a rate of interest. BUCHTEL ON PHONE ROLL Kx-Piiblic Service Commissioner Draws $750 for Services. SALEM', Or., Nov. 20. (Special.)
