The entire day was takeiuup with the taking of testl-: many, and a half flosen attorneys and over a score of witnesses sweltered in the heat front 10 a. m. until 6 o'clock p.

while efforts were made to prove or disprove the The hearing revealed several legal complications, the organisations of rival boards, rejecting members who were fleeted and appointing others to fill the and the session was marked by a number of bitter tilts between John T. Lenahan, attorney for one faction and John attorney for the other.

The Taxpayers' Association la the real plaintiff in the case and seeks to remove James Judge, John Con Ion, Jerry Sniffer, Rosser Malnwaiing, Richard Dillon, E.

J. Qulnn, and Michael Brannan as school directors. The controversy hinges on the organisation of the new school board and whether E. J. Qulnn or Michael Brannan Is the duly Qualified director.

At the Feb ruary election E. J. Qulnn, according to the returns certified to the clerks or the courts, was elected over Brannan by seventeen votes. When the board met for reorganisation with the four old members a dis pute arose. Judge was named as temporary secretary and then Jerry Shifter was received as one of the new members.

He was nominated as chairman despite the protests of Dillon and Main-waring. E. J. Qulnn presented his oath of office as a second new member, but It was Ignored, and Michael Brannan, who presented a certificate oi election signed by six of the nine Judges of election, was accepted. This branch of the board then elected Mr.

Conlon treasurer and adjourned. A RIVAL BOARD. 'Directly after the two dissenting members, Dillon and Malnwarlng, organized, accepted the certificate' of election and oath of office ot Qulnn, and later elected James Gibbon, Michael Garrahan and Geoige Hllbert to complete their board ot six. The Taxpayers' Association, through attorney John Farnhm, is attempting to end the factional struggle by having the seats of the six elected school directors declared vacant and six others appointed by the court Attorneys John T. Lenahan and M.

H. McAnlff are defending that part controlled by Judge, Conlon, Hhlffer and Brannan, while attorneys John McGahren and Joseph Mulherin are protecting the interests ot E. J. Quinn, Kosser Mainwarlng and Richard Dillon. The Judge adherent's claim that Brannan had a legal certificate and Is entitled to' his seat and cannot be ousted under the present proceedings.

The Qulnn faction claim that he la the legally elected director, received the larger number of votes and was prevented from taking his seat at reorganization by trickery. WITNESSES TESTIFY. Edward J. Qulnn was the first witness called and told of the reorganization of the board, that he presented his certificate of election and oath of office, but was Ignored, while that of Brannan was accepted by Judge, Conlon and Shiffer. The witness said he was ready and willing to serve as a school director and perform the diitles.

Attorney Jenahan objected to the last statement, but Judge Fuller replied that he assumed that every one of the six directors v. as ready and willing to do the same. Rosser Kainwarlnc was called and told a story almost similar to that of Mr. Qulnn. Richard Dillon testified along the same lines.

Each witness was first examined by Attorney Farnham. cross-examined by attorney McGahren and put on the grill by attorney Lenahan. When they had finished, attorney Lenahan moved to dismiss the petition because It was not suKtalned by the facts In the case, that four of the school directors organised and compiled with all the requirement of the law. Judgo Fuller, however, decided to hear both sides before deciding the case. "sJUDGE FACTION HEARD.

Then James Judge, John Conlon and Jarry Shiffer were called and gave their version of the reorganisation, and the election of officers, showing that BranJ nan's certificate of election was accepted by them. Attorney McGahren tried to show that Mr. Sniffer and Mr. Conlon had met Mr. Quinn at the office of George Hartman before the reorganization and had offered to recognize and seat him if he would vote with them.

This was objected to by Mr. Lenahan and some sarcastic remarks were passed between the attorneys. 4Trank McGuIre, a reporter; Peter J. Conlon, a school teacher, and Albert Will-lams, township treasurer, testified as to what occurred at the meeting of reorganisation when the split occurred. Henry Adolph and Henry Acheson, Judges of the election districts who signed Mr.

Brannan's certificate, told of their reasons for doing so, and George Wagner, deputy clerk of the courts, read the election returns as recorded. During the entire proceedings there were objections without number to almost everything offered, and when the hearing came to an end, collars were wilted and almost everybody, the court and lawyers especially, seemed exhausted.
