81 900 BalBE MONTY.
Who Knows Where II L.:
Have Simpson and York been 0utwitted.

There is good deal of mystery just now
concerning the - 900 which YORK fonrished
70 effectively :, the JOINT Convention.
Guerin, who is now in Washington, says
he expressed the money to that place from
Topeka, and on the strength of this state
ment Ben. Simpson j. ssking fer two days
more time, alleging that Guerin. being fast
man. ou,-traveled the express.
Another story comes from Topeka to the
effect, that through . m stake the money was
sent out on the westward train, and is now
in Colorado or Utah.
The most plausible explanation We have
yet heard, is that the keen witted and skill
full Fred Hutchings. Of the Investigating
Committee, go. possession of the money be-
fore it was sent out of the Topeka express
Office, and returned it 10 the State Treasurer.
He suspected that it was part OF the plan for
Ben. Simpson to receive it As payment Tor his
services as attorney for the State of Ksnsas,
and then divide with York. At any rate
all Kansans agree thst the money is safer in
Kansas than in Washington.
The Grand Jury which has just adjourn
ed. failed to inquire into the manner in
which one or two County Commissioners
were manipulated on the night of the Fourth
of July, 1871. The two important witnesses
of that wonderful ard peculiar summersault
we're absent-the one in Washington, the
other in Denver. One has returned TO the
city since the Grand Jury quit.
HANGS is telling a very unpleasant story
in Washington about Billy Bond desiring
aid from Pomeroy to secure his election to
the Legislature. This exposure, together
with the tidings of the Metropolitan Police
Bills fate, will almost undo the active Re-
preventative from the Fourth.
