THE COUNTY TREASURY.
Summary of the Proceedings
Against Mr.. Smith.
How His BOndsmen are Trying
to Shirk Responsibility.
Oficial Report Of the Board OF
commissioners.

Yesterday afternoon was the time h1ed Dy
the County Board for receiving the report Of
the committee appointed to inquire into, and
investigate the financial affairs Of George s.
Smith, the defaulting County Treasurer.
The time set for the reading Of the report
v,s two O'Clock, but it was nearly three be-
fore the committee fled out from the room
where they had been scratching their heads
and wrangling for the last three days. Be-
tween the hours Of two and three O'Clock the
Board room was crowded with scores Of law
yers. business men and fnanceiers, all anxi-
Gus 10 hear what the investigators had to Of
fer. Among the anxious throng the bonds
men of Smith were especially noticeable. The
nice little snm Of S67, 900 was the issue with
them. They were interested to just that
extent and as they paced the floor twirling
their thumbs and nerviously giancing at the
door leading into the Secret Chamber, they
concentrated the gaze of the eympathizlng
multitude. At last the committee notified
the Board that they were ready to report.
The commissioners were in their places in
moment and business commenced. We give
the following report with papers and afbdav-
its complete.

With this report the Committee returned
to the Board room where their arrival
was anxiously awaited BY the
festive Grangers, and, in fact, nearly every
business and professional man in the city.
Col. Moonlight, - spokesman of the Com
mittee, told the simple facts Of the interview
and then urged that no thought Of violence
be attempted against the nick and helpless
man. Having heard this report and becom-
ing satisfied that they could get no new de-
velopments the Board adjourned till the
next regular meeting. Slowly the crowd BE-.
gan to dsperse, and when the evening shades
had fallen, the region Of the County Clsrk's
Office, which had during the day been the
scene Of the widest excitement, resumed il
wontsd quiet.
There Is but one conclusion to be drawn
from the hot-headed, passionate, and almost
unwarrantable proceedings ofyesterday, and
that is that the people are not to be trided
,vith by any set Of men Organized into q mu-
tual relief society. All the people ak i .
speedy settlement BY the bondsmen of their
liabilities and an honest capable man to b
placed in charge of the Treasurer Office.
They will be satisfied with nothing else.

1873, personally appeared before me the un-
dersigned County Clerk, in and for said
county, Edmond Burr. OF lawful age, being
first duly sworn, say that on the 18th day Of
December, 1873, he was appointed BY
George S. Smith deputy Treasurer Of Leav-
enworth county, and on the 10th day Of
December, 1877 entered upon his duties ~
such deputy and assumed charge Of the af-
fairs. and that upon that date he found on
hand the following aseets:
Amount of cash on hand and in bank, the
sum of 4 0O029.
4 school district order against school district
No Six, eighty-two dollars and eighty cents.
Amount paid and endorsed upon Court
House scrip. ten thousand one hundred and
eighty five dollars. Scrip and scrip orders.
sixteen hundred and thirty dollars and
ninety eight cents. Receipts for delinquent
road tax and township order, one hundred
and ffty-one dollars and thirty-seven cents,
which sum is sixty seven thosand and thirty.
seven dollars and eighteen cents less than
the amount shown to be on hand by the
books in said Office. EDMOND BURR.

10Th day of December, A. ID. 1873.

ceived and adopted.

On motion Board adjourned to Monday,
December 22nd, 1873, at q O'Clock I'm.
A. 3. KELLER, Clerk.
Before the Board meets on Monday the
County Attorney will have a consultation
with the Council for the Treasurer, and il
they do not propose to square up accounts
with the Treasury the Board will probably
pass resolution authorizing the County At
to,ney to commence legal proceedings.

b,ndsmen settled without going into thu
courts. He expressed his belief that some
satisfactory arrangement could be made
whereby the bondsnenscould be given suii'
Gent time to save themselves, If it was pos.
sible for them to do 60.
A dozen or more Changers and business
men participated in the debate, and IS the
house was about evenly divided on the mer.
its of the question. the discussion pro and
con was not only long drawn but exceedingly
bitter and vindictive. The bondsmen took
the ground that they were entitled to man.
age the affair of the Office until they could
bring order out of the fcancial wreck and
the firm unyielding gentlemen from the
county claimed that they had not. Most of the
speeches gave expression to the idea that it
devolved upon the bondsmen to pay up the
amount of the deficit Immediately. They
did not believe in having the bondsmen
run the Treasures office. for the purpose
Of making up any deficiency. 1t was time
that the county was in possession Of the miss
ing money, and a, the Treasurer had not
made the deficiency good, his bondsmen
must. There was decided feeling among
the greater part of those assembled that by
some underhanded means the bondsmen
were seeking to rid themselves Of RESPONSE
bility. 1t certainly had that appearance 30
clamorous were they for a recognition of
their supposed rights and privileges, but We
would not convey the impression that their
action was prompted by other reasons than
desire to save themselves, a reason which
would prompt any individual placed in sim
liar circumstances.
THE MISSING FUNDS.
In regard to the missing funds or where
they have gone4o nothing is as yet known.
Smith still remains in blissful ignorance or
at least he go intimates. Perhaps his securi.
ties have been informed as to the where
abouts of the money, but the public are kept
in the dark. As was expressed at
the meeting yesterday by good
honest substantial Granger it is strange
that $4,000 should be spirited away
in such an unaccountable manner. And
that is the opinion of the public. If Mr..
Smith is disposed to deal fairly with the peo-
pie be will tell where the money has gone to.
and until he does there is not much proba-
bility that he will receive any great amount
of sympathy. 1t certainly does seem as
though there was an undercurrent of pur-
pose in this silence. People at least are in
clined to this belief, and the action Of the
bondsmen yesterday is in no way calculated
to remove the deep seated impression of
fraud.
This afternoon at o'clock, the Board will
again be in session. and if Mr.. Smiths resig-
nation is presented the whole matter will be
speedily settled. If not legal proceedings
will be instituted at once to recover from the
bondsmen the sum due the county.

railroad collision while on his way to at
tend the funeral of his brother in that

vices .over, before intelligence was
brought to his family of the sudden death
of another brother in Saginaw, making
three deaths in one family within four
days.
