Ex-AuDiT0R MclLRkTH,
Result Of Investigating His Official
Carcer.-Over 100000 Loss to the
State.

The State Senate at its session last
winter appointed Senators John A.
Macdonald. L. j. Hubbard. and Will
liam Mckusick to investigate the man:
ncr in which the late State Auditor,
Charles Mcl!rath, discharged the
duties Of his office, and especial
ly Of his manipulation of pine
stumpagc. This committee
submitted a lengthy report to Gov.
Davis on the 4th inst. which shows
that MIR. McIlrath received large sums
of money for stumpage which he never
paid over to the State. lie was in secret
partnership with lumbermcn as was
also chief ''cxaminer" Butler Comstock.
Comstock would estimate the stumpagc
less than it actually was
receiving therefor handsome
sums which several witnesses call ''hush
money! Then when the lumbcrmen
paid for what Comstock's estimates
called for Mr.. McItrath did not pay
over the entire sum to the State. The
committee make the following tabular
summary of the loss to the State

The Committee say:
"Your committee having asccrtained
the foregoing facts, the inquiry sugges-
ted itself as to what remedy the State
had, if any. to indemnify itself for the
losses thus sustained, when the sur
prising fact was developed that Mr..
McIlrath executed no official bond to
the State at the time of or since the
commencement Of his last official term
Of three years. His official oath was
duly filed and recorded in the Office of
the Secretary of State, but no bond
! was given. As the law makes it the
duty of the Governor TO approve the
bond Of the State Auditor, it is ilnpos-
siblc for your committee to explain why

ROCKFORD z. r. AFFAIRS.
Mr.. Cable Retirss from the Management.

Mr.. r. r. Cable returned this morning
from trip over the Rockford, Rock Isl
and x St. Louis r. r. with Receiver Ferry,
to st. Louis, to show him the property and
place him in business connection with
its patrons. Mr. Ferry will be home this
evening.
Mr.. Gable says that it is an error to say
that he will continue to manage the road,
under Mr.. Ferry. He has turned every
thing over to Mr.. Ferry and will have
nothing more to do with the affairs of the
road, except to furnish Mr.. Ferry any in
formation he may wish for to enable him
to understand the business and manage it.
No other changes are expected to take
place,
Mr.. Ferry speaks favorably of the con
dit2n Of the property, except as to its ma
tural wear and decay.
The first business Of the Receiver will
be to pay off the local indebtedness Of the
road.
Mr.. Gable will devote his attention to
other business interests of his.

To us it would seem that the dumping

would appear an extraordinary ctrcuhi
stance" justiiying the landing OF the boat

After the contractor had, as he thought
completed his job, and 50 declared to Sur
veyor Stoddard, and asked him to examine
it and accept it, Stoddard informed him
that the ferry company wanted some rock
dumped in at place indicated. The con
tractor dumped them in, as requested, and
called Stoddard again, whereupon he IN
formed the contractor that the ferry COM
pany wanted more rock dumped III. The
contractor dumped them in at the point
where Stoddard and the ferry company
wanted them. Then Stoddard recommend
ed the acceptance of tie job. 1t was ac-
certed by the council Then the ferry
company refused to move, because the rock
were an obstruction. Stoddard, in reply
to a question from the Mayor, before the
council stated that the rock could be re
moved for five dollars The council then
ordered the wharfmastcr to move the dock
down, and the ferry company, having re
quested the rock to be placed in the river.
